139 Feeling the Competitors Crossing the River

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

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

This is a rare social craze.

Now that Japan's economic bubble has burst, 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 more.

There is no need to say more about the Japan Economic Newspaper.

They are very supportive of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

Seeing the rapid development momentum of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, I began to exaggerate the various benefits of electronic games.

Praise video games for revitalizing the sluggish Japanese society.

He praised Youxing Electronic Entertainment Company as an excellent company and its president is young and promising.

At the same time, these economists are also boasting that this may be a sign that Japan will escape the quagmire of the bubble burst.

The Japanese people have felt that they have lost several years. They were once so prosperous and fell to the bottom in the blink of an eye.

However, Zhu Youxing knew that these were all bluffs.

A mere video game cannot affect the entire Japanese economic structure. At most, it can only make it slightly active.

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

I have changed many people.

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

However, the sales volume of SFC is not particularly obvious.

Sales volume reached 400,000 in the first week.

This is already quite amazing.

This seems to prove that the Japanese people still have consumption power, but they just lack something that can really impress them.

This is also the result of a year of hard work to develop the market.

This is really not easy. If we work hard in the future, we can make some of the most popular and top games in Japan achieve sales of over one million in the first week. This is basically the sales limit in Japan as a whole. If you want to improve it, you can

It's very difficult.

After all, there are only so many citizens in Japan.

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

It's up to your colleagues to choose.

Other Mario drawings and Zero Racer sold less.

The Type Zero racing car sold for nearly 200,000 yuan, and the results were pretty good.

There are only 100,000 Mario drawings.

This game is more of an experimental nature, and Zhuyouxing doesn’t really expect this game to bring much profit. It’s up to you to earn as much as you can. Originally, the development cost of this game was not high.

Then Zhuyouxing looked at the results of other peers and looked at their current sales of game consoles and games.

The first is the pn game console.

The release of sfc put it on the map.

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

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

Surui Electronics didn't make any special struggle, just let himself be ravaged by Youxing Electronic Entertainment without any resistance.

The influence of sfc is indeed great, and a head-on confrontation is really a loss, so it is better to skip this competition and wait for the next opportunity to counterattack.

Several other companies that want to make money are almost in the same situation. They have no reaction to the sale of SFC and are completely lying flat.

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

Why don't you guys come here for a few symbolic moments?

It's not that they don't want to come, it's that the money Zhuyouxing spent almost monopolized all the advertising space in those days. They didn't even have a publicity channel, so there was nothing they could do.

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

However, there are rumors in the industry, that is, rumors from uncles and gangsters that Surui Electronics seems to be planning to make a handheld console.

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.

On the other hand, there has been little movement in the development of new home game consoles, and I don’t know if it has been kept secret so that it has not been discovered.

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

We can't let them just lie flat.

He still hoped to help these people 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 Takeyusei called Natsume Yasutaka, who was in charge of marketing, over.

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

As soon as Natsume Yasutaka came in, Takeyusei directly gave him a task.

"President, tell me."

"Find some people, try to be as anonymous as possible on the Internet, hide IP addresses and all other information, and then leak some information to the outside world."

Natsume Yasutaka was a little confused by Takeyusei's words: "Leaked news? What news?"

"Let's just say that we are starting to develop a more powerful game console. It is expected to be a game console that directly manufactures 32-bit chips. We are preparing to enter 3D graphics games and bring innovation to the electronic 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 say hello, and then find an opportunity to inspect their company's latest models.

Digital chip, and then find a way to 'accidentally' take some spy photos and distribute them on the Internet."

Natsume Yasutaka opened his eyes slightly.

"President, are you serious? We are really developing the latest game console, and it is really 32-bit. By proactively leaking secrets like this, isn't it just asking our opponents to react?"

"Yes, that's what I want to do. They are too slow, so I have to push them hard." Zhu Youxing showed a mysterious smile.

"Too...too slow?"

Natsume Yasutaka must admit that he often cannot figure out some of Takeyusei's strategies.

Now the company's internal engineering development team has indeed begun to develop newer game consoles.

Although it is just the beginning, Zhuyouxing has given a clear path and they have begun to move towards the goal.

But he really couldn't understand the fact that Zhu Youxing took the initiative to leak the secret to the outside world.

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

He has to let a company like Surui Electronics step out of the way first.

Because 32-bit performance game consoles are already 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 should you sell the game console after it is developed.

The price of current game consoles is generally in the range of 8,000 to 1,000 yen.

This is because it is very economical to research eight-bit and 16-bit game machines at this world's technological level, and the two chips of 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 small deal. If you don't pay attention, the cost may skyrocket several times. Zhuyouxing must let the competitors test the users' opinions first.

See if they can accept a higher price.

If you don't accept it, then you'll probably have to hold it in for another two years. If you accept it, then you'll enter the market decisively.

This is actually Zhu Youxing treating competitors as guinea pigs.

Let them test the players' endurance, and then take the initiative and swallow the biggest cake.

Sometimes it is not wise to be aggressive and always rush to the front. At the right time, you need to retreat at the right time and let others rush forward for a while.

Isn’t that what racing likes to do? The car at the bottom of the rankings follows behind the car in front, which can reduce wind resistance and be ready to overtake at any time. On the contrary, the car in front will be on tenterhooks and worry that its ranking will be surpassed at any time.
