4:50 pm, this time period happens to be the peak period for sub-supply programs.
Most children will stay in front of the TV at this time to watch their favorite programs.
However, in the past two days, what makes the TV station a little strange is that the sub-supply programs, which usually have very stable ratings, have been declining recently.
Of course, the magnitude is very small, only about 0.1 percent.
However, from the display on the network ratings map, it can be seen that the decline in ratings is mainly concentrated in the main urban areas of Tokyo.
What are these children doing at this time? Are there any celebrations happening around? I haven't heard of it.
The employees of the TV station broadcasting the program were a little curious, but compared to the total ratings, this can only be said to be a mild change, and it would not cause them to panic.
On the contrary, an advertisement inserted in the middle of today's program really interested them.
The commercial begins with a scene of a group of children gathered in front of a TV, seemingly watching something attentively.
The children cheered from time to time, as if they had won some victory.
Then the advertisement flashed, and the picture on the TV gradually enlarged. A pixel man jumped through the mushrooms and dense forests in the mountains. Occasionally, he would meet monster-like mushrooms and turtles, and some strange but mysterious people.
A cute monster.
"Free! Controllable!" Several big words gradually flew out and filled the screen.
In a very rhythmic electronic hybrid music, the picture changes again.
This time, there is a pixel villain walking on a slightly smaller map. Then the villain encounters a monster, fights with the monster, and finally saves the princess. The princess is grateful to the pixel villain and pledges herself to him.
"You will be the brave man who saves the princess!"
The screen changed again, and the pixel villain turned into a muscular man with a machine gun in his hand, fighting to the death with the enemy.
"He will also be a super agent!"
After the picture ended, a few more words gradually became clearer and brighter.
"You can play anything and become the master here!"
FC type home TV entertainment computer, the ultimate playmate for children, can provide both learning and entertainment. You can play as long as you want. You deserve it.
The FC-type home TV entertainment computer will be officially released in a month. The price is 6,999 yen. It includes the Super Mario game. If you want to play other games, you need to purchase it separately. You are welcome to buy it.
This thing definitely looks like it's for kids.
But the employees responsible for broadcasting the TV station's programs seemed to be equally interested.
Obviously that picture looks a bit childish.
But there is an inexplicable attraction to it.
Then, he glanced at the big 6,999 yen number on the screen.
It seems...it's not very expensive, just think of it as a cheap purchase.
A brand new computer on the market now costs at least 50,000 yen.
And this home entertainment computer is only 6,999, so it’s not a huge loss if you buy it.
At worst, just think of it as a gift for your nephew.
At the same time, many adults watching the TV had very similar thoughts.
And those children outside Tokyo who still don't know about Famicom, their eyes widened when they saw this advertisement on TV programs.
They don't care about computers or not.
What they care about is the colorful pictures inside.
Although it is not as good as the visual effects of cartoons, the focus is on the first few words that appear.
Free and controllable.
I can play any role, that means I can be a hero? Become a superman?
In the minds of children, most of the biggest dreams are to immediately become the person they want to be.
Scientist, astronaut, agent, superman, preferably Koshien Superman, you can also become the brave man who saves the princess!
It’s so interesting just thinking about it!
When children get together, they often focus on role-playing.
They will choose which children will play the villains and which children will play the heroes, and then have fun.
But there is a limit. Children cannot control other people's choices. Some children will leave early for various reasons before some children have fun.
However, this computer does not seem to have this limitation, and you can play as long as you want.
"Mom (Dad)! I want this! This and this!"
Mothers who were preparing dinner, or fathers who had just gotten off work and were lying aside, felt their hearts skip a beat when they heard this sound, and couldn't help but feel sorry for their wallets.
But when they looked up at the price, they thought about it for a moment, and then nodded slightly.
"If you buy this, you won't have any extra pocket money this month."
"Uh-huh!"
The price of 6,999 is still within the acceptable range. After all, it does not reach 7,000.
In a normal Japanese family, such consumption is still affordable.
If it can make the children happy, it's not bad.
Usually a slightly more expensive toy that a child clamors for is about the same price.
Of course, the price is that many children will have much less pocket money this month.
In addition to these, there will definitely be people who are unwilling to buy it for their children, but that doesn’t matter.
Zhu Youxing turned off the TV and leaned back on the sofa contentedly.
He was quite satisfied with the production of this advertisement.
This is an advertisement he took some time to create. It is very simple and straightforward, and was created with the thinking of later generations of advertisements.
The effect of highlighting the key points of later generations of advertising is often the most effective.
Airi Hayasawa was sitting on the sofa one meter away from Takeyusei, holding her thigh with one hand and an apple in the other, with a bulging mouth.
"Takeyu-san, how much money do you think we can make?"
Zhu Youxing shook his head: "I can't answer you, but I should be able to at least get my money back."
Airi Hayazawa was full of worry: "But there is still a lot of advance money. If you really lose money, you will go bankrupt."
Zhu Youxing said nonchalantly: "What's the matter? In the worst case, I'll chew on you."
"You rich people are really enviable. Even if you go bankrupt, there will always be someone who takes care of you."
Airi Hayasawa took a bite of the apple hard, with a bit of hate in her eyes, as if the apple was a bamboo star.
"Don't worry, your salary will not be less than that of other employees. At least I can guarantee that for the employees."
"Hey? That's not what I meant, but of course it's nice if you give me money."
Failure is nothing, Zhu Youxing doesn't care. It's not entirely because he has parents in this world to protect him, but also because he has a forward-looking vision from another world.
It's hard to say anything else. People who have traveled through time will have no problem making some money.
If it fails this time, the best thing to do is to regroup and save some money to start again.
What's more, he can basically be sure that at least he won't lose money.
Just from the word-of-mouth effect among the children, it is basically no problem to earn back the full price of the advertising fees and circuit boards paid in advance.
