Hirohito Chida is a salesman at a well-known circuit board manufacturing factory in Tokyo.
In the past few years, their company's performance has been very good.
Orders are coming in almost like snowflakes.
At that time, Japan's national economic level was changing day by day, rising like a rocket.
At the same time, people's demand for a high-level of life has become stronger and stronger.
This has also given rise to the rapid expansion of industries such as personal computers, televisions, and mobile phones.
In addition, the technological level of this parallel world in the 1990s was equivalent to the level ten years later in Zhu Yuxing's previous life. Small mobile phones have also become popular. In this era, various clamshell phones can be seen on the streets.
Companies that specialize in producing circuit boards for various products will naturally flourish and make a lot of money.
This is how Hirohito Tomoda's family moved towards the middle class.
However, this good life did not last long.
Although the level of science and technology has advanced ten years, history has not changed much.
The Japanese bubble that occurred on Earth in Takeyu's previous life also exploded at the same time in this world.
From that moment on, people were in mourning.
They are no longer obsessed with the high consumption of the past and have begun to live frugally and frugally.
In the past, personal computers, high-end TVs, mobile phones and other products are no longer necessities for people.
The profitability of circuit board manufacturing companies has also begun to plummet, and they can only rely on a small number of orders from high-end automated machinery and equipment to maintain their profits.
Just as fast as you rose on a rocket in the past, you will fall as fast as the rocket explodes now.
As a salesman, he was almost unable to survive.
Thanks to the lifetime employment system of Japanese companies, he can still have a decent job. In addition, his family has always been relatively conservative and has not made reckless investments. It has not been too hard hit by the bubble. He can be regarded as the luckiest family among thousands of families.
a wave of people.
However, people have less and less demand for high-end consumer goods, and electronic products are the most dispensable things.
Even if he, a salesman, is tied to a lifetime employment system, his current salary is pitiful. At most, he can only maintain his family's food, clothing and basic expenses.
Especially recently, the leaders above have been frantically giving them orders and tasks. If they don't complete them, they will be greeted by Tugeza and the leaders yelling at them four hours a day.
He is under tremendous pressure now, and he can only feel better when he sees his happy children and considerate wife at home, which makes him understand that it is worth being dismissed in the company and being scolded.
So even if the situation is bad now, he will try his best to save some money and buy things he likes for his children, so that they can be filled with smiles.
However, today, the child suddenly said that he wanted a brand new thing, and it sounded like it had something to do with television.
He, a salesman who had been tortured by his boss for almost a week, couldn't help but start to think.
"Come on, son, come and tell me what's going on and what the villain you mentioned on TV is doing."
Chidao was even more happy when he heard that his father seemed very interested.
It seems that this time dad can meet his request again!
"Dad is like this..."
At this moment, Takeyusei and Airi Hayazawa have been running outside for more than a week, and the two of them have basically completed all the nearby parks.
Zhu Yuxing actually wanted to visit more parks, but just yesterday he seemed to have been targeted by the police from the Metropolitan Police Department. They warned Zhu Yusing not to set up stalls casually. If he wanted to set up a stall, he must go to a designated park.
The market will do.
Therefore, the plan to continue promoting the game can only be temporarily ended.
But after traveling so many places, video games have basically begun to spread among children.
It even has a touch of urban legend.
This has basically met Zhu Youxing's requirements, so he also changed his mind and prepared for the next plan, which is to try to recruit more people and see if he can find a company that makes electrical appliances to try it out first.
Some of the first generation red and white game consoles.
Zhu Youxing had to lament that he came at the right time, just in time to catch the last train of making a fortune from a small electronic product workshop.
In the 1970s and 1980s, Jobs assembled a personal computer with two people in his garage, and Nintendo built the first red and white console prototype with only three or four people.
What's more, Bill Gates was able to earn thousands of dollars with just two people after learning the Basic programming language at the age of 13.
If this was left two thousand years later, there would be no way to develop it without forming a R&D and manufacturing team of several hundred people.
The myth of sudden wealth and fame is becoming increasingly rare.
The red and white machine in front of me at the moment has some experience from Zhu Yuxing's previous life. In addition, he has written a simple game system in Basic language, which he has rarely dabbled in in his previous life. There is also a passable employee who specializes in electronics and electrical appliances, but it can only be built with difficulty.
Pieced together.
Of course, the main reason is that the requirements of the game console system itself are much simpler than that of a personal computer, and it can be built without such complicated knowledge.
But it is simply impossible to develop it with just such a prototype.
He needs to produce some more game consoles, at least first a batch of game consoles that can be used in entertainment halls.
"Zhuyu-san, what are you doing?"
Airi Hayasawa, who was finally able to rest, felt like she was in a dream these two days.
The salary will be paid every day, and she only needs to check the prototype every day for any loopholes.
Now she was drinking juice through a straw while curiously looking at the computer screen in front of Zhu Youxing.
"I'm working on a project."
"Project? Are you finally planning to sell a product? Let me tell you, this thing is very popular with children and will definitely sell well!"
"It's hard to say." Zhu Youxing shook his head.
In this world, although there are no competitive peers.
However, other entertainment industries in this world are quite powerful and have attracted the attention of most people. If they want to pull these people out of the original entertainment industry to play their games, Zhuyouxing cannot guarantee that it can really be done.
Smooth sailing.
Therefore, he must try his best to find ways to make the game attractive.
First of all, what we need to do is to streamline and reduce the difficulty and improve the feeling of enjoyment.
In the early years, games on the Famicom were generally quite difficult.
If we compare it to the large-scale games of later generations in the 21st century, the games of the Famicom era are probably the difficulty level of games of later generations, excluding nightmare-level difficulty games like Demon Village, which are not meant for people to play at all.
.
"Isn't it hard to say? But I see those children are very happy playing games, and, in fact, I have been playing too recently."
When Airi Hayasawa had nothing to do in the past two days, she finally thought of trying Super Mario.
At any rate, she helped to make this, at least she had to experience it.
