230 No snowflake is innocent before an avalanche

The owners of these small department stores had not originally planned to donate so much.

Of course, they really don't care much about this little money, they just don't want to waste it on meaningless things.

But it is very meaningful to donate more this time.

In the past, these small department stores were often suppressed by large department stores.

Even with the control of industry associations and labor unions, they still have a difficult time.

Even if a big company makes a slight move, it will be difficult for them to survive.

Recently, many small department stores have made a lot of money from video games and have become quite wealthy. At this time, if they can make people in big department stores feel uncomfortable, they will still be very happy.

Look at how blind you are when you gave up on cooperating with Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

In addition to David, the senior executives of several other large department stores also looked a little ugly.

These small department store owners are obviously here to disgust them.

This reminded them of the emails they receive every day, which are exactly the same.

They seriously doubted that these guys might have learned from Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

This made several senior executives of large department stores very embarrassed during the whole banquet. At the same time, they also felt that they hated Yuxing Electronic Entertainment even more.

Including David, they have decided to immediately cut off all contact information of Youxing Electronic Entertainment tomorrow and increase the promotion of other game consoles. David does not believe it. It is just a product. No matter how good it is, it is just a product.

, it is simply not on the same level as department stores like them.

Unless you are at the level of Morgan Group or Suri Electronics.

The next day, several large department stores, according to the requirements of their senior management, put the game consoles of Lierda and Surui Electronics in promotional posters as exaggerated as possible, claiming that they were unique game consoles, the most fun game consoles in the world, and so on.

There don't seem to be any restrictions on advertising laws in this world, and these department store people don't particularly care.

And this did have some effects.

Most customers often find it difficult to distinguish the quality of a product when purchasing it.

They can only be sure after buying it.

Of course, if you don't like it, it's not too difficult to return it.

Just a few days after the new promotional poster was released, the sales of Lierda 2600 and pn2 and pn1 game consoles sold in several department stores increased by more than 10% again, which made several companies responsible for product sales.

The supervisors were very happy.

See, there is no difference between game consoles. We just improved some of the words used to sell products, which increased sales.

But this also proves that the power of electronic games is rising, and electronic games indeed have great development prospects.

Among them, Lierda was very happy to see the sales performance of his own game consoles improving, and immediately ordered the foundry to speed up the production of game consoles and cartridges to cope with possible shortages in the future.

Previously, they had seen with their own eyes that the game consoles of Youxing Electronic Entertainment were out of stock again and again, and they were selling very hotly.

They looked on with envy and jealousy.

Now it seems that they will also have this treatment, so I am very happy.

As for Surui Electronics, they seem to be more conservative. They are not rushing to speed up the production of game consoles, but continue to dig deeper into the quality of the video games themselves.

They had competed with Yuxing Electronic Entertainment in the Japanese market before, and they still had some experience. The short-term sales increase was probably just a blind choice of users, and they should not be complacent about it, but Lierda obviously did not realize this.

Zhu Yuxing looked at the news in the United States and felt that those department stores were really capable of causing trouble, but the large department stores really had an absolute advantage in every aspect.

Even if the stuff you sell in a large department store is junk, there is still a chance that someone will patronize it and buy it.

And sometimes, when many Americans don't buy the products they like, they don't think about returning them as soon as possible. After all, they are richer and don't bother to waste that time on returning or exchanging products. And anyway, it's not that they can't play, they just don't have the money.

It's just so much fun.

Even if Zhu Youxing was envious, there was nothing he could do about it. These department store executives just ignored him.

However, Takeyusei continued to ask Minoru Matsuhashi to send emails on a regular basis, and he had to send them persistently, making them uncomfortable for a while.

He really didn't believe that the senior executives of several large department stores really thought that their products were not worth it.

It is estimated that one or two senior executives of those companies are holding them back.

All you have to do is wait patiently for the breakthrough.

As for Lierda increasing the production of game consoles, Zhu Youxing only thought that this guy was probably going to be unlucky.

Eager for quick success and quick profit, they hastily increase production even before they have any advantage. By then, more may be lost.

Ordinary people in the United States sometimes spend money lavishly, but they are not fools. It's okay to fool them for a while, but if you keep fooling them, they really don't take ordinary people in the United States as human beings, and sooner or later they will suffer for it.

Looking at the company Lierda, Zhu Youxing couldn't help but think of a similar American game console company in his previous life, called Atari.

This company was at its peak in the mid-to-late 1970s. Game consoles dominated the United States and no one could compete with them for their position.

At that time, Nintendo was still developing arcade machines and other game toys, and game consoles had just entered the research and development stage in the early 1980s.

Then these guys in the United States got a little carried away by relying on their absolute dominance. They began to ignore the opinions of players and believed that as long as the game was produced, people would buy it. They simply increased investment in production regardless of cost.

As you can imagine, the final result was that all the games and consoles were lost.

Some people say that the et game released by Atari at that time was the culprit, but it is better to say that this game was just the last straw that broke the camel's back of players' trust in Atari. Internal high-level changes were frequent, and the creative team was expelled early.

, leading to instant changes and conflicts in the company's core concepts and values, internal discord within the company, and multiple shareholders who only value commercial interests and will only try to make as much money as possible, regardless of the consequences.

Atari collapsed immediately after that, and struggled miserably in the early 1980s.

No snowflake is innocent in an avalanche.

Of course, if the game produced by this company is earth-shattering, it can be saved, but looking at this situation, it is probably a bit uncertain.

It seems that the American market in this world is about to stage the drama of the previous life again, with Japanese manufacturers competing for hegemony.

From Nintendo to Sega to Sony PS game machine dominance.

As for what will happen to this world, Zhu Youxing is not completely sure.
