"Oh, it's a friend who we used to work with, and now holds a position in Surui Electronics."
Oh haha? Did you find a spy?
Natsume Yasutaka seemed to see Takeyusei's expression. He smiled and said: "Actually, President, if you are patient, you can also find relevant information. Surui Electronics' confidentiality work has never been particularly good, and they don't seem to care.
These."
"Then tell me in detail." Zhu Youxing became interested.
"During this period, they seem to be in contact with some well-known software companies. Maybe they want to learn from our methods and add more games to their game consoles, instead of relying solely on the company's internal personnel to produce games."
"Hmm, what next?"
"It seems that some results have been achieved now, and publicity is being carried out intensively. There may be accurate news in two days."
Are you planning to bring others with you to join forces this time?
People in this world are indeed very smart, and they plan to join forces if they can't handle it alone.
This coincides with my own future ideas, and the other party has a great advantage, that is, the company is very large, and they may not be able to influence users' choices in a short period of time.
But they can influence the choices of other companies or game production groups in a short period of time.
Give benefits first and let those companies give priority to making games for their own platforms. If more people make games on one platform and the quality improves, then naturally players will slowly start to choose them.
"President, I see that you still don't seem worried at all. This time it seems to be more difficult to deal with than before. Unless we can always make good games, the output must be very high."
"There is nothing to worry about. It is a good thing that more and more good games will appear in the world."
Zhu Youxing would be equally happy if he could play more good games in this world, because that was what he had planned a long time ago. He had long said that competitors can also be friends.
But...he still has to be beaten if he needs to be beaten. His desire to be the godfather of games in this world has never weakened.
If he continues to be suppressed now, he will no longer be the godfather.
"So, President, you mean you have a way to deal with it?"
"Of course, you don't have to worry about this. You go do your own thing first. I will find you when I need you."
Natsume Yasutaka nodded and left.
Zhuyouxing began to check the current sales of game consoles and games.
In the two months after the release of the Shogi game, the game development team released two more games.
They are Takahashi Celebrity Adventure Island and Gold Diggers.
The two classic games also shined in their respective categories. In particular, Gold Digger added puzzle elements, making the game very playable. Both sales exceeded 50,000 in the first week.
In the past, sales of 20,000 to 30,000 were considered high sales.
But with the increase in sales of red and white consoles, it seems that it is becoming more and more normal for games to sell 50,000 copies in the first week.
As for the Famicom, it has now reached 800,000 sales, and is getting closer and closer to one million. According to estimates, one million sales may be completed in one month at the fastest and two months at the latest.
It hasn't officially been a year yet, but it can be said that the results are very gratifying.
As for the rival PN game console, it has not exceeded 100,000 yuan yet.
At the same time, in addition to these data, there is a new statistical data below.
Number of third parties joining the Famicom: 17.
Two of them are relatively well-known companies, namely Kuppongi Entertainment and Hotan Entertainment.
Both companies used to make electronic entertainment products, so the transition was quite easy, and they learned to make games very quickly.
The two companies each produced a game just one month after learning. The sales volume in the first week was about 30,000, and it is still rising slowly.
The remaining 15 are individual game production groups that came out of game classes.
They also began to release their own games one after another after the class study.
So far, the game lineup for the Famicom has reached nearly forty, and it is still growing rapidly. Today, the Famicom can release an average of two to three games a month.
Among them, some of them really produced other categories of games before Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
One of the individual groups produced a word puzzle game. The sales were not high, but it was just enough to sustain the survival of the entire group. They were very happy to continue to dig deeper and expand in the word puzzle game category.
There is also an individual group that has produced rhythm games. It’s just that Zhuyouxing, who has played many audio games in later generations, doesn’t think it’s very fun, but people in this world quite like it, and the sales are not low, and this team is also very popular.
Got a handful.
There is no need to worry about the loyalty of these seventeen third parties.
Because it is stated in the contract from the beginning that if a game that is launched on the red and white console wants to be launched on other platforms, the profit share will be reduced from the original 40% to 30%, and the profit will be reduced.
Pay a huge amount of liquidated damages, of course there is a time limit, five years.
Five years from now, if you want to log on to other platforms, there will be no stopping you. Whether players after five years still want to play pixel-quality games is a question.
Some games are classics and have been passed down for generations, while some games are really just like electronic products and will be eliminated quickly.
As long as they want to make money, they will not violate the contract.
"Hmm...seventeen...it's a bit less. It would be quite nice if there were more."
Zhu Youxing was thinking quietly in his heart.
"Forget it, call them over first, and then we'll talk about it later."
Zhu Youxing made a decision, and then notified all seventeen third parties that there would be a meeting in a week that they all needed to participate in.
Seventeen third parties who received the news responded as soon as they received the news, saying they would definitely go there as soon as possible.
The Famicom is now their bread and butter, and they will definitely respond immediately to any slight disturbance.
And the time soon came to a week later, at the company location of Youxing Electronic Entertainment, brand-new cars were parked neatly in front of the company.
The people who came out were all well-dressed and looked quite energetic.
Among them, many people were mediocre people before, and some of them have been unemployed for a long time when the bubble burst.
Until the emergence of video games gave them hope, these people were considered the first gold diggers in the gaming industry.
After a group of people met, some of them were familiar with each other because they had more or less attended the same game class before.
Long time no see, you have also become a game producer?
That’s really gratifying, congratulations on your game’s success.
Basically, these people were polite first, and then gradually entered the Youxing Electronic Entertainment building and came to the conference room.
