After Li Guangyu rested at home for a day, he came to Xingyu Group the next morning. In the past November, Xingyu Group has become the darling of the Hong Kong media, and reports about the group have not stopped.
Xingyu Group's home game consoles have been sought after by game fans as soon as they were launched. In less than a month, orders have exceeded 2 million units.
Xingyu Group's new arcade game Pac-Man has been welcomed by various channel vendors, and it has already received huge orders of more than 80,000 units.
In the Xingyu Group conference room, Toru Iwatani was very excited today. The huge sales of the Pac-Man game had made his status in the group skyrocket. Today, he was specially invited to attend this high-level meeting, which he could not have imagined before.
.
In the conference room, the senior executives of Xingyu Group were very happy. Over the past year, their performance has been suppressed by Xiangyu Group, which made them feel very humiliated as the boss of Li Group. This time through home game consoles and Pac-Man
Ren game fired both arrows, and finally left the Xiangyu Group behind.
Now the top executives of Xingyu Group are confident that relying on the new growth point of home game consoles, Xiangyu Group will not be able to overtake them for a long time.
Li Guangyu, Li Xuemei, and Zhang Ziyu walked into the conference room together, and the senior executives present also fell silent with the arrival of Li Guangyu and others.
After listening to the reports from various departments, Li Guangyu said: "Thank you all for your efforts during this period. It is because of you that our company has been able to achieve such great results. The group will not forget your contribution."
Li Guangyu then said: "We must keep up with the production of home game consoles, and at the same time we must strictly control quality issues."
Zhao Xiaoyan, the vice president of the group, stood up and said: "Li Sheng, because we did not expect that home gaming opportunities would be so popular, our current production capacity is seriously insufficient. Moreover, the Wu family currently does not expand enough production capacity for us, resulting in our delivery being delayed.
It’s scheduled for three months later.”
Wang Xinyu, the vice president of the group, stood up and said: "Li Sheng, we are still signing orders for home game consoles every day. I suggest that our group invests in establishing a home game console production company in Tin Shui Wai to deal with the current problem of insufficient production capacity."
After listening to the reports of the two vice presidents, Li Guangyu was happy but also worried. The current situation is very good, but the production capacity cannot keep up, which is a big problem. Other game companies will not give Li Guangyu much time, and they will definitely not
He will develop his own new generation of home game console, and it will definitely not be much worse than his.
Li Guangyu asked Zhao Xiaoyan: "Have you contacted the Wu family? Do they have any plans to expand production capacity now?"
Zhao Xiaoyan said: "Li Sheng, we have already contacted you, but the Wu family has no plans to expand production capacity. They are mainly focused on OEM arcade machines for us."
Li Guangyu also knows that assembling arcade machines is more profitable than OEM production of home game consoles. And now that the Wu family is said to be preparing to develop the television industry, they probably have no intention of OEMing home game consoles for him.
Li Guangyu said: "Xuemei, after the meeting, you contact Jianye Company, a subsidiary of Starlight Real Estate, and ask them to build a factory with a daily output of 30,000 home game consoles in the Tianshuiwei area. The construction of Starlight City can be postponed and this company can be put on hold first.
After establishing it, at the same time, our arcade assembly company will recruit and train people for the home game console production line. Once it is established there, we will immediately drop it."
Li Xuemei said: "Li Sheng, regarding the production of home game consoles, we have expanded our staff. Now we are working in three shifts to speed up production. It is useless to recruit more people now. We can wait until the construction is completed there.
After that, we will recruit talents as needed.”
Li Guangyu agreed with Li Xuemei's opinion, and then said to Wang Xinyu: "Now is a good time for us to rush for orders. You inform the branches in various regions to seize the opportunity during this period when other game companies have not yet matched our products. How can we make more products?"
Sign some orders."
Wang Xinyu stood up and replied: "Li Sheng, don't worry, our branches in various regions attach great importance to the launch of home game consoles. We will definitely be able to grab a huge piece of cake in this market this time."
Li Guangyu is still very confident about this game console. Even if other game companies want to develop a game console that is comparable to his, it will take several months. This period of time is enough for Li Guangyu to occupy the home game console market.
Advantage.
Li Guangyu then said to Toru Iwatani: "Mr. Toru Iwatani, thank you for your contribution to the group. On top of the rewards stipulated by the group, I specially reward your development team with another five million Hong Kong dollars, which will be distributed according to the size of the credit."
Toru Iwatani felt happy when he heard that Li Guangyu had given out another five million Hong Kong dollars to reward the development team, and he could get at least another one million.
Toru Iwatani stood up and said: "Thank you Li Sheng, I will definitely develop better game products for the company in the future,"
What Li Guangyu rewarded them was only a small amount of what he earned. You must know that Pac-Man's current orders alone have earned Li Guangyu more than 200 million Hong Kong dollars in profit.
Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Toru Iwatani, these are the rewards you deserve. At the same time, Mr. Toru Iwatani serves as the deputy general manager of our Xingyu Game Development Company. I hope you and Mr. Shigeru Yamamoto can cooperate sincerely and lead our game development company together."
development.”
Toru Iwatani did not expect that with the success of this game, he would not only receive a huge cash reward, but also become a senior management member of the group.
Toru Iwatani said gratefully: "Li Sheng, don't worry, I will cooperate with General Manager Shigeru Yamamoto to lead the development of the company."
After Li Guangyu asked Toru Iwatani to sit down, he said to Wang Xinyu: "We also need to vigorously promote the Pac-Man game, and we can't just focus on home game consoles. Nowadays, we have to walk on two legs, and we can't just focus on one side."
Wang Xinyu said: "Li Sheng, we also attach great importance to the launch of the Pac-Man game. We have always had a complete promotion and sales plan for the Pac-Man game."
Li Guangyu then asked Yamamoto Shigeru about Street Fighter Twelve and how the development of Super Mario was going, especially Super Mario, which is a gold mine.
Yamamoto Shigeru said: "Li Sheng, Street Fighter Twelve has entered the testing phase and will be available for sale next month. As for the Super Mario development team led by me, it is estimated that it will not be able to enter testing until January next year. It is estimated that it will not be launched until
It’s February.”
Li Guangyu said: "Don't worry, we must design it well and ensure quality. We don't lack that little time."
Li Guangyu considered that after these games were released, new games were somewhat out of stock, so he said: "Next, we will develop several casual games mainly for our game card sales, and at the same time to cooperate with arcade sales."
Li Guangyu then asked game development companies to develop mahjong, Three Kingdoms games, basketball games, backgammon, and chess games respectively.
Except for the Three Kingdoms game, which is also suitable for arcades, most of these games are mainly played on home game consoles. Those who are more casual are more likely to play at home, while those who go to the arcade to play mostly prefer more exciting games.
Li Guangyu then asked about the production situation of the PC version of the game. For this game for computers, Li Guangyu can only find a market in the United States. Today’s computers are not popular and there are not many personal computers. He wants to make money on it.
