Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 140 Crossing the River by Touching Competitors

Now I don't know how many reporters are secretly cursing their bosses.

Curse them for not knowing how to be flexible, and now they are begging the director of their own TV station to change quickly, so maybe the rules can be changed.

This is a rare social upsurge.

At the moment when Japan's economic bubble is bursting, it is very rare for so many people to go to the streets to buy goods and even wait in line for a day or two or even more.

Needless to say, the Nihon Keizai Shimbun newspaper.

They are very protective of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

Seeing the rapid development of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, they began to exaggerate the benefits of video games.

Praise video games for reinvigorating a sluggish Japanese society.

Praise Yuxing Electronic Entertainment Company as an excellent company, and its president is young and promising.

At the same time, the group of economists also boasted, saying that perhaps this may be a sign that Japan is getting out of the quagmire of the bubble burst.

The Japanese people already feel that they have lost several years of time, and they have fallen to the bottom in a blink of an eye when they were once so prosperous.

However, Zhu Youxing knew that these were all bluffs.

A mere video game can't affect the entire Japanese economic structure, at most it can make it a little bit active.

But this seems to be the impact of the butterfly effect.

I changed a lot of people.

Of course, he also hopes that he can change more people.

However, in the sales of SFC, it is not particularly obvious.

Sales of 400,000 in the first week.

That's pretty amazing.

This also seems to prove that the consumption power of the Japanese people is still there, but they lack something that can really impress them.

This is also the result of a year's efforts to develop the market.

This is really not easy. If we work hard in the future, some popular top games in Japan can reach sales of over one million in the first week. This is basically the sales limit of the entire Japan. Very difficult.

After all, there are only so many Japanese nationals.

The average scores of the four first-time games are also good. The sales of Contra 3 and Super Mario World have both exceeded 300,000, which means that 70% of people who buy game consoles will choose these two games, and Or colleagues choose.

Other Mario graphics and Formula Zero sold less.

The Type Zero car sold close to 200,000 yuan, and the results were not bad.

Mario drawing is only 100,000.

This game is more of an experimental nature. Zhu Youxing didn't really expect the game to bring much profit, and it counts as much as it can earn. Originally, the development cost of this game was not high.

Then Zhu Youxing looked at the results of other peers to see their current sales of game consoles and games.

The first is the PN game console.

The release of SFC directly beat it to autism.

According to industry estimates, the weekly sales may not exceed 2,000 units, which is indeed the worst week.

Not to mention the game sales, there is no data to count the sales of these games.

Su Rui Electronics didn't do any special struggle, just let himself be ravaged by You Xing Electronics Entertainment without even a little resistance.

SFC's influence is indeed great, and it's really a loss to confront head-on, so it's better to skip this competition and wait for the next opportunity to counterattack.

The same is true of several other companies that want to make money. Facing the release of SFC, they have no response and completely lie flat.

Zhu Youxing felt a little bored, but he didn't expect them to give up resistance just like that.

How many times do you come here symbolically?

It's not that they don't want to come, it's that Zhu Youxing almost monopolizes all the advertising space for those few days, and they don't even have a channel for publicity, so there's nothing they can do about it.

But it is estimated that after the sales of SFC gradually stabilize, they will start to try to counterattack again.

However, there are rumors in the industry, that is, the uncle party rumors that Su Rui Electronics seems to be planning to make a handheld.

And their performance will be better. Only in this way can they have a certain advantage. Otherwise, under the same conditions, they really can't compete with Zhuyouxing.

However, there is no movement in the development of new home game consoles, and I don't know if it is well kept secret, so it has not been discovered.

Zhu Youxing thought for a moment, and felt that he still had to urge these competitors.

They can't just lie flat like this.

He still hoped to touch this group of people to cross the river.

He has to speed up the development of game consoles, otherwise he will never be able to keep up with the times. When will he be able to play a real 3A masterpiece?

So Zhu Yuxing called Natsume Yasulong, who was in charge of marketing, over.

"Xia Musang, I have a new task to teach you, but this task is quite special."

As soon as Natsume Yasulong came in, Zhu Youxing gave him a task directly.

"President, tell me."

"Find some people, use as much anonymity as possible on the Internet, the kind that can hide IP addresses and all information, and then leak some information to the outside world."

Natsume Yasulong was confused by Takeyusei's words: "Leak the news? What news?"

"Let's just say that we are starting to develop more powerful game consoles, which are expected to directly manufacture 32-bit chip game consoles, ready to enter 3D graphics games, and bring innovation to the video game industry again."

Zhu Youxing paused, and then said again: "By the way, find a few suitable chip companies, contact them both at home and abroad, make a phone call to inquire about their health, and then find a chance to inspect their company's latest chips. digital chip, and then find a way to 'accidentally' take some spy photos and distribute them on the Internet."

Natsume Yasulong opened his eyes slightly.

"President, are you serious? We are really developing the latest game console, and it is really 32-bit. Isn't this kind of active leaking of secrets just to make the opponent react?"

"That's right, that's what I want to do, they are too slow, I have to hurry up and give them a spur." Zhu Youxing showed a mysterious smile.

"Too...too slow?"

What Natsume Yasushi had to admit was that he often couldn't figure out some of Takeyusei's strategies.

Now the company's in-house engineering development group has indeed begun to develop newer game consoles.

Although it has just started, Zhuyouxing has given a clear path, and they have begun to move towards their goals.

But Zhu Youxing took the initiative to leak the secret to the outside world, he really couldn't figure it out.

Only Zhu Youxing can know what he wants to do in this kind of thing.

He has to let companies like Su Rui Electronics step on the thunder first.

Because the game console with 32-bit performance is very close to the technological level of the current world.

It is not difficult to develop such a game console. What is difficult is how much you should sell the game console after the development is completed.

The current game console prices are generally in the range of 8000 to 1W yen.

This is because it is very cheap to study 8-bit and 16-bit game opportunities at the world's technological level, and these two chips in this period are also not too expensive.

But 32-bit chips are different. More than 80% of computers in this era still use 32-bit CPUs.

This price is no longer a trivial matter. If you don't pay attention, the cost may directly skyrocket several times. Zhuyouxing has to let the competitors test the user's tone first.

See if they can accept a higher price.

If you don't accept it, then you will hold back for another two years at worst. If you accept it, then you will enter the arena decisively.

This is actually Zhu Youxing treating the competitors as guinea pigs.

Let them experiment with the tolerance of the players, and then they will strike back and swallow the biggest cake.

Sometimes it is not very wise to aggressively rush to the front. At the right time, it is necessary to retreat at the right time and let others rush first.

Don’t racing cars just like to do this? The lower ranked cars follow behind the front cars, which can reduce wind resistance and be ready to overtake at any time. On the contrary, the cars in front will be worried, worrying that their rankings will be overtaken at any time.
