Chapter 373 The premium system
Nintendo stipulates that third-party game manufacturers order 10,000 disks, and they will not be sold if there is less!
And money first and then goods, the delivery time is two months!
The previous premiums are easy to say, but the third-party game producers who were originally big at the beginning were deeply hated.
If a game is expected to sell 100,000 copies, Nintendo's production fee and premium will be 2,000 yuan per month.
Then the manufacturer has to make 200 million yuan when coming, and then wait for the return for two months.
When I find that the game is selling well and want to add it, wait and wait for two to go.
I'd like to ask for a collision with Nintendo's own game, which will be postponed.
By the time I first got the game cartridge, maybe the game was out of date and could not be sold.
Of course, if the game did not meet the expected 100,000 copies before, would Nintendo return the extra card money to me?
I never thought about the beauty of my thoughts. I never said I had returned the product.
So it is wrong for many game manufacturers to correctly predict game sales is a matter of life and death.
If you order too much, waste it will seriously occupy the funds and lose money if you can't sell it. If you order too little, you will miss the best time to sell it.
Moreover, when to get the goods and how much goods can be sold depends on Nintendo and the original intention to meet.
Of course, the original intention will play a role in it, so there is another story.
But unlike the various regulations of Nintendo, Hongchuan Kaede's conditions are quite simple and crude.
There is no such thing as selling the cassettes to game dealers.
The conditions he proposed were whether to get a commission, and of course, the right to make the game cartridge was caught in his legs.
First of all, Hongchuan Electric has the ability to make cassettes. Instead of letting other OEMs earn processing fees, it is better to do it yourself.
Secondly, if you seize the right to make the game cartridge, you will seize the right to ship and distribute the game.
So what are the benefits? When HAL's own game and third-party game release period are similar, Hongchuan Electric can reasonably adjust the schedule between them.
After all, the product shipment rhythm is controlled by him, and he has the final say when to distribute the goods.
If you say it’s popular, do you lie to the elderly? You can give priority to your own games when you ask for it.
Because compared to third-party commissions, the profits earned by one's own games will be more.
Of course, the premise is that if the quality of the game of the son is similar to that of the third-party game, then that can be done.
Otherwise, the third-party game will be sold better, but only if Hongchuan Kai loses his ambition, he will be forced to the game that is not supported by the mud.
He is not a capitalist and will not be able to get along with money.
Seeing that Yuji Kudo was hesitating, Hongkawa Kaede felt that he had to ask for another shot of a heart-wrenching injection.
"Kudo San, Hongkawa Electric's production is sufficient, and the production cycle of game cassettes should not exceed two weeks.
And the payment cycle will be controlled outside one month, so please don’t worry about that.”
Hongkawa Electric has large factories in Kawasaki and Chiba. According to the latest statistics, there are more than 10,000 workers.
With that size, it would be too easy to process a small game cartridge.
That is qualitatively different from Nintendo's model. Is Nintendo not own factory?
Whether all its products and game cartridges are completed by OEM by other factories will lead to the shipment of many products, and Lao Ren himself cannot control it.
So it agreed to the third-party game whether the delivery cycle of East is two months, and that is also for the sake of insurance.
Although Nintendo's home game console is not available for sale now, its premium system has not been officially established.
However, Hongchuan Electric Appliances' two-week delivery period and one-month payment period are absolutely unacceptable.
Even though Yuji Kudo doesn't understand the electronics manufacturing industry very well, he has few companies that can provide him with such conditions as Minghong.
It is worthy of being a big manufacturer, and while giving harsh conditions, it also gives irresistible reasons.
After gritting his teeth, Yuji Kudo, who had a fat and round face, nodded fiercely.
"Okay, according to what Hongchuansang said. Hudson can accept it at two points."
Alas, you can't agree.
The business situation of Hudson Software is getting worse and worse. Although it has made hundreds of computer games, no one is losing money.
If that situation does not improve, his Hudson will probably go bankrupt in half a year.
Seeing that the wrong party nodded in agreement, Hongchuan Feng also smiled.
Very good. The first one is completed and you can negotiate with other manufacturers on that template later.
With the lead, the attitude of others will naturally soften halfway.
"Wu Kudo, for the manufacturing of cassettes, the first batch must not be less than 5,000 disks. Hudson needs to pay the 1,000 yuan per disk in advance."
The cost of processing cassettes in Hongchuan Electric Appliances is about 500 yuan, and he will collect 1,000 yuan in processing fees.
Although there is a subsequent commission, the initial production cost should be given very much.
You can't expect that the game will be sold out at the beginning and then you will get the money back and pay the previous processing fee.
There is no need to think about the matter of a red wolf with empty legs.
The game is selling well and it’s easy to say. If it fails, I guess I can’t even get the book back. Wouldn’t Hongchuan Electric be a hit?
There is no such good thing in the world, and Hongchuan Kaishi is not a charity person.
But when he heard his conditions, Yuji Kudo looked puzzled, "Hongkawa Sang, can you please make some money?"
Even if Kudo Yuji Akihiro goes to other OEM factories to produce game cartridges, he will also ask for an advance deposit.
But based on the current situation of Hudson Software, 5 million yuan is really not enough to get it.
I am about to go bankrupt, so I have no surplus food to pay the labor fee.
Judging from his awkward look, Hongchuan Kaikaku already knew about the current situation of Hudson Software.
"That's the case, the production costs of the first batch of "Gold Digger" game cartridges will be paid in advance by Hongchuan Electric.
When the game is paid, the relevant production fees and commissions will be deducted from it. Of course, then there will be special cases for the first batch of games. Other games in the future will not be executed in accordance with the terms just now."
"Of course! Of course!" Kudo Yuji nodded and bowed continuously.
That is equivalent to Hongchuan Electrical Appliances supporting him with a start-up capital of 5 million yuan for free. Is he not grateful for such a good thing?
As for the shipment volume of the first batch of game cartridges with 5,000 disks, even Yuji Kudo has no objection.
If a game has no expected sales of 5,000 disks, what is it very developed? Is it undecided to lose money?
So that number is acceptable to both parties, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the 5 million monthly fee is wrong with the company.
Speaking of the 35% commission, Hongchuan Feng divided it into two steps.
The processing fee of 1,000 yuan for the game cartridge is calculated as 18.2% of the commission, and the remaining 16.8% is deducted from subsequent game reimbursements.
The benefits of doing that are guaranteed that even if the game is not sold well, Hongchuan Electric will never lose money if it is wrong.
Because of the processing fee for each game cartridge, Hongchuan Electric has made 500 months of yuan.
That is related to the sales volume of the game, whether the shipment volume is related to the shipment volume.
With Hongchuan Feng’s personality, how could he do a loss-making business?
Bulu also doesn't deny unreasonable people, a game developer with potential like Hudson. He doesn't mind stretching his legs to support him when he wants it.
"I was wrong Kudo San, so I asked presumptuously. The company in Kaedou didn't seem to be doing computer games before, so how could it be transferred to the home computer game platform now?"
That's not the point where Hongkawa Kaede was a little curious. According to Satoshi Iwata, it seems that the wrong party took the initiative to find the door.
When he was wrong about his question, Kudo Yuji stammered, "Because. Because I have no money~"
That's a real reason for being simple and unpretentious, Hongchuan Kaizaki laughed silently.
"So your society tried to transform and developed "Gold Digger"?"
"In fact, "Golden Digger" does not deny the game developed by Hudson's software." Yuji Kudo added.
"Hmm?" Hongchuan Feng turned his head to look at the fat face beside him.
"Does "Gold Digger" come from a computer game in the United States? Hudson transplanted it to the FES platform.
Of course, please don’t worry, Hongchuansang, they have obtained the authorization and there will be no infringement disputes.”
Seeing that Hongkawa Kaede was a little suspicious, Kudo Yuji went to explain.
"So it wasn't that way," Hongkawa Kaede nodded. No wonder he completed the development of a game in such a short time.
If it is not transplanted, it is understandable.
Did Bu Luna remind him that there is a disclaimer for third-party games in the future. Hongchuan Electric Appliances can be careful.
