Nowadays, Youxing Electronic Entertainment has a growing influence on the entire society.
Internal estimates indicate that the number of users of Youxing Electronic Entertainment has exceeded 70 million, and this number continues to expand crazily.
The sales of FC game consoles alone have exceeded 60 million so far, and are still growing rapidly. The sales areas have covered North and South America, Asia and Europe.
Other game consoles have not had such great influence just because FC is really cheap and pirates are not willing to touch FC because it is almost impossible to make any money.
Such a huge user base is enough for any company to develop for a long time.
The influence is certainly terrifying.
Of course the Japanese government has noticed this a long time ago.
The Culture and Arts Promotion Committee is a brand-new project carried out by the Japanese government.
It aims to go abroad through its well-known cultural industry and extend its influence to other countries.
Japan also did the same thing in Takeyusei's previous life, which happened to be just two years ago.
The first step is to promote cultural products in South Korea, Southeast Asia and even China.
For example, many people’s childhood memories include Japanese anime, Japanese dramas, novels, etc.
At present, relying on Yuxing Electronic Entertainment and many game development companies from Japan, Japan is really the world's hegemon in the electronic game industry.
I know that there is no hope that other countries will surpass Japan in the short term.
Of course, this is a very good cultural promotion channel that must be taken seriously.
As the most powerful company in the current gaming industry, Youxing Electronic Entertainment will certainly not be ignored by the government.
The Culture and Arts Promotion Committee has just been established, and Youxing Electronic Entertainment has already been included in the list, and its priority is still high.
This plan is more like an invitation letter from the Japanese government, and a collective meeting will be held in about a month.
It is organized by the Japanese government, and then representatives from other countries go to participate in the meeting to discuss matters related to cultural revitalization.
Before the meeting, the Japanese government hoped to get some response from Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, such as official authorization of well-known character images, and assistance in developing game versions of some well-known cultural works.
In return, the Japanese government will provide convenience in taxation and other aspects.
Also, among these conveniences, the government will allocate a piece of land in the port area for free to Youxing Electronic Entertainment to build their own building.
However, it is only free for fifty years. After that, you have to pay again, or it will depend on the actual situation at that time after fifty years.
If the company develops steadily, it is estimated that Youxing Electronic Entertainment will not be short of rent money at all by then.
Using a large piece of land for free for fifty years is really attractive and can reduce your cash flow a lot.
Until now, Youxing Electronic Entertainment does not have its own company building.
In fact, Zhu Youxing has been thinking about this matter before.
However, building a building is more expensive than imagined.
If you want to build a better building, the cost of the building alone will be hundreds of millions of dollars, not to mention the cost of using a large piece of land in a popular administrative area.
This will take up a huge amount of cash flow.
So far, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has more than one billion US dollars in reserves on its books, making it the leader among other companies.
But if he wanted to use the money to build a building, he would probably be completely destitute on the spot.
This is not what Zhu Youxing wants to see.
However, now the Japanese government has directly given a piece of land for free, and also written a list of some construction suppliers below.
If you spend money at these construction suppliers, you will receive certain discounts and exemptions, and the Japanese government will help advance the money.
The prerequisite for the government to be willing to help with these things is to join the Culture and Arts Promotion Committee, grant authorization, and create more linked games.
This is a piece of cake for Zhu Youxing.
If he just dealt with it and randomly found someone to play a few small games to deal with official business for the Japanese government, the other party probably wouldn't be able to say anything.
However, that would be a bit damaging to one's character. After all, it is a request from the government, so one should take it more seriously.
Looking at this project, Zhu Youxing put an asterisk on it without hesitation, indicating that this would be a key project in the future.
"Character image authorization can be given to the government now. As for making games, we need to discuss it carefully and give the result within ten days."
It’s okay to agree to help people make games, but you can’t help make games just because you’re given a novel or a movie or TV series.
Some works are simply not suitable for being made into games. Even if they are forced to be made, it would be equivalent to damaging their own reputation.
From Zhu Youxing's perspective, word of mouth is obviously more important.
The employees in charge of the peripheral departments left with the approved documents, and Zhu Yuxing was ready to invest in the development of Final Fantasy 7 again.
However, because the development has entered a stable stage recently, I hardly need to intervene in anything anymore. I only need to occasionally supervise the development progress.
So at this moment, Zhu Youxing seemed a little absent-minded.
It was obvious that he had been distracted by what had just happened.
Tax exemptions and free land in the port area to build your own building.
This is really attractive.
At this moment, his mind had already begun to conceive of what his building would look like.
How high should a building be built?
Should be at least thirty floors
It is no longer possible for my own development trajectory to follow the Nintendo model.
He not only wants to develop exquisite games, but also build a game industry system. The future scale will definitely far exceed that of Nintendo in the previous life.
It's only a matter of time before we have tens of thousands of employees.
However, it is estimated that the buildings in the port area cannot accommodate so many employees, and there must be branches.
But this kind of thing can be done slowly. There is no need to rush. You may be able to ask the Japanese government for a few more pieces of land. The area does not need to be too restrictive. It would be better if you can buy the land directly.
After being distracted for more than an hour, Zhu Youxing came back to his senses.
Forget it, I'll think about these things after get off work, and now I'll finish today's work on Final Fantasy 7.
"I'm back."
After returning home from get off work, Zhu Youxing shouted out of habit.
Until now, Airi Hayasawa has been living here with Takeyusei.
Both Airi Hayasawa and Takeyusei seem to be used to it.
In fact, sometimes Takeyusei thinks that it would be great to marry Airi Hayasawa.
He is not particularly concerned about marriage. He puts all his energy into game development. If it is not necessary, he is even willing to devote his life to video games.
At this moment, his mind was thinking about the building, and he didn't notice two pairs of unfamiliar shoes at the door.
After taking off his shoes, he lowered his head and walked towards the living room with a thoughtful look.
As he walked, he felt like there was someone else in front of him, and he subconsciously thought it was Airi Hayasawa.
"Oh, by the way, Airi, you..."
Takeyusei raised his head and wanted to tell Airi Hayasawa about the company building, but his words soon stopped abruptly.
Because the person in front of him was not Airi Hayazawa, but Masako Takeyu, his mother.
