Chapter 187 The Future of Gold-Sucking Beast

Masaya Nakamura understood what the other party meant, and Shirakawa Kaede's explanation later confirmed his guess.

"Nakamura Sang, Takashe's arcade games are very good. Shirakawa Electric intends to transplant them to GAME BOY.

This can not only spread their influence, but also bring additional income to Nangong Meng."

Although Nangong Meng has only been working on game arcade production in 1977, the "Little Bee" and "Labyrinth Racing" released in the past two years are all very excellent games.

"The Little Bee" is the guarded "Bracks", and "Labyrinth Racing" is a new type of racing games.

Both of these have performed very well in the arcade market and are ranked among the top ten arcade games of the year.

Since there are so many audiences, it is naturally not too bad to transplant it to the handheld machine.

Masaya Nakamura carefully considered what Shirakawa Kaede said, feeling that this is not a way to expand his business.

Nangong Meng started out in the rooftop garden in the mall and started working on children's toys.

It's just that kind of rocking horse, "What's your dad's name ~"

Well, that's probably the case.

Later, we slowly made coin machines and it was not until the arcade market in the past two years.

For Nangong Meng, the field of electronic games is just a first-time trial.

He has not even gained a foothold yet. Any of Taidong, Nintendo, and Sega in the arcade market can be used to hammer him.

So Masaya Nakamura also felt a sense of crisis. At this moment, he heard the game transplant proposed by Shirakawa Kaede, and immediately started to plot against him.

Although the handheld machine is extremely popular now, Nangong Meng does not have the technical strength to make the handheld machine.

Moreover, arcades have just improved, so they invested the only resources of the club into new areas. It is obvious that this is a very unwise choice.

In this case, licensing the company's existing games to other platforms and earning an licensing fee is also considered to be a new business development.

"I am very interested in the game transplant that Shirakawa Sang mentioned. But has Shirakawa Sang considered the game transplant of your club?"

Masaya Nakamura thought more, and on this basis he made a divergent mind.

"Hmm?" Shirakawa Feng was stunned at first, then reacted.

"Shirakawa Electric is very happy to authorize the games of your club." This Nakamura Sang is worthy of being the president of the family and has a very flexible head.

When Nakamura Masaya heard Shirakawa Kaede's answer, he nodded in satisfaction and agreed.

He has long heard of the famous "Thunder and Lightning" on the other party's handheld machine. If it is transplanted to an arcade, it will definitely be a hit again.

But, he was thinking about Shirakawa Electric's "Thunder and Lightning", and Shirakawa Kaede was also thinking about the other party's good things.

"I heard that your club recently developed a new arcade "Pac Man"?" Shirakawa Kaede asked casually.

"San Shirakawa is right. The game has been tested and will be put into the market soon."

Masaya Nakamura was not too surprised by Shirakawa Kaede's well-informed knowledge. After all, the "Pac-Man" game arcade was tested on the street in May, so it was normal to find out.

"Shirakawa Electric is preparing to launch "Pac Man" on its next handheld machine."

Shirakawa Kaede's words shocked Masaya Nakamura, so quickly?

"The development of handheld game is relatively short." Shirakawa Kaede explained in considerately.

In fact, the cycle is shorter. The real reason is that Shirakawa Electric has already started.

Today I just came here to talk about copyright. After all, as a well-known company, you can't copy it directly.

Fame is also a very important thing. Shirakawa Kaede has now begun to cherish her feathers.

Besides, I just became an anti-plagiarism fighter. After the incident, I turned around and went to copy others.

Isn't this, both being that and standing that?

So if you can sit down and discuss business well, Shirakawa Kaede doesn't want to go to the wrong path.

Masaya Nakamura did not go into too much about Shirakawa Kaede’s explanation, after all, they had just agreed to authorize each other.

"By the way, Nakamura Sang, the copyright of the home computer of Takashi Games, can Shirakawa Electric also be developed normally?"

Masaya Nakamura's expression condensed again, and this sentence revealed an amazing information.

Shirakawa Kaede also stared at him openly, without any discomfort at all by exposing the company's next strategy.

"I'd like to ask you, when will your family phone be launched?"

Games also pay attention to time effects. Only when they are popular can the entire platform be launched to maximize benefits.

After passing that opportunity, the effect will be greatly reduced.

Therefore, Masaya Nakamura is very cautious about Shirakawa Electric's authorization of household appliances that are still in the planned area.

"Within five years" Shirakawa Kaede gave a very vague answer. Of course, I can't give a specific time.

Five years? Masaya Nakamura was a little hesitant. In this case, there will be no profit in the short term.

However, the other party’s manufacturing strength cannot be underestimated, and he also has his own methods in marketing.

Once the sale starts, the sales volume will not disappoint, and Nangong Meng will also have a considerable share.

After thinking for a while, Masaya Nakamura spoke again.

"In addition to Pac Man, other games can give home appliance authorization to Shirakawa Electric."

Seeing what else Shirakawa Kaede wanted to say, Masaya Nakamura added.

"Of course, the local home appliance authorization of Pac Man can be handed over to Shirakawa Electric, but the US market..."

The reason why Masaya Nakamura took out the US market alone was because Namong Meng had cooperation there.

As Atari, who has promoted the video games, he is currently in a honeymoon period with Nangong Meng.

Even Atari's branch in Japan was acquired by Nangong Meng because of poor management.

Therefore, in the US market, Nangong Meng first considered her old partner Atari.

After all, their home appliances have been developed to the second generation, and Shirakawa Electric has not seen them yet.

What a pity, this is Pac-Man. But Shirakawa Kaede hasn't given up yet.

"Nakamura, Shirakawa Electric Appliances can give up on the American market in Pac Man. But can you consider the markets other than the United States?"

Masaya Nakamura was puzzled by Shirakawa Kaede's persistence, because he didn't even know what the market would be in the future.

It is not a popular shooting game nowadays, or even a little more girlish, which seems to be a style that goes against the market trend.

However, it was Shirakawa Kaede's persistence that touched him. After all, this was also a recognition of Nangong Meng's strength.

"In this way, Nangong Meng can consider cooperating with your society in markets outside the United States."

"Happy cooperation!" Shirakawa Kaede stood up and stretched out his right hand.

"Happy cooperation!" Nakamura Masaya nodded with a smile, and also stretched out his right hand.

After finalizing the initial intention, cooperation between each other has a foundation.

As for more detailed cooperation rules, each other's professional teams will be responsible.

Now Shirakawa Kaede no longer participates in these details.

The mutual authorization transplantation of both games is generally calculated based on the share.

Especially the popular games, everyone is not stupid and will definitely not choose to buy out copyrights.

For example, Nangong Meng's "Pac-Man" was transplanted to Shirakawa Electric's handheld machine.

The final revenue will be calculated based on the sales volume of the handheld machine. For each copy sold, Nangong Meng can earn dozens or hundreds of yen.

Similarly, Shirakawa Electric's "Thunder" was transplanted to the arcade by Nangong Meng.

How many arcade machines have been made, Shirakawa Electric can also get a corresponding number of certain commissions.

However, because the arcade machine is priced at a high price and sales volume cannot be compared with handheld machines, the commission is relatively high.

But none of these matters. There are two real important gains today, which made Shirakawa Kaede very satisfied.

First, "Pac-Man"! In neon, it is called "Pac-Man".

I believe that countless people have played and heard of this game.

The Guinness World Records awarded it "the most installed coin-operated arcade in the world": 293,8222 units.

Since then, the Guinness World Records has awarded Pac-Man as the "most well-known video game in the United States", which is known to 94% of Americans, higher than Mario's 93%.

Although this is only a statistic of popularity in the US market, it also indirectly illustrates the popularity of Pac-Man.

It is said that the various comprehensive income of Pac Man later reached as much as $12 billion!

Now Shirakawa Electric has taken over the global copyright of handheld machines, and household machines have also obtained authorizations outside the US market.

Shirakawa Kaede is not greedy. He is satisfied if he can get a fraction of the 12 billion yuan.
