Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 440 Nothing is known yet
Chapter 440 Nothing is known yet
Tourists, players, and reporters are guests. They are very satisfied and the response is strong. Naturally, the owner Zhu Youxing is also very satisfied. The strong feedback from players is the motivation for him to continue making games.
However, the guests and hosts were enjoying themselves here, but Surui Electronics was not so happy.
There was an unconcealable gloom on Hayakawa Ueto's expression.
Many of the things I had prepared before were completely broken because of Zhu Youxing's sentence 149.
Selling you a game console at a loss, and even daring to sell it at a loss of so much in the first place, is really quite courageous.
This is equivalent to directly seizing the market through price.
Unless Surui Electronics uses the same method to fight back, it will be difficult to succeed in the future.
But it was already very difficult for him to obtain the price just now. Now if he wants to ask shareholders to lower the price of the game console, it will definitely not be possible in a short time.
They absolutely cannot accept a hardware product being sold at a loss.
Even if they understand that the cost of game consoles can be earned back by selling games later.
“Hayakawa, you look very bad now. I think you should take a good rest.”
At this time, Nagao Yu took the initiative to come over and comfort Hayakawa Ueto.
Hayakawa Ueto shook his head: "There are really too many uncertainties in this competition. I didn't expect Yuxing Electronic Entertainment to make this move."
Nagao Yu asked back: "Can't we just follow along and sell at a loss?"
Hayakawa Ueto shook his head: "Of course not. I have to be responsible to shareholders, but that bamboo star doesn't. He can do whatever he wants. This unfettered state is really enviable."
“Listen to what you mean, you can do the same thing if you are not restrained? Are you sure you can get back the money you lost from the game console?”
"Of course." Hayakawa Ueto was very confident.
This time he is very confident in his product because it is a highly comprehensive mobile entertainment terminal.
Playing games, watching movies, listening to music, they are almost proficient in everything, all using their company's most advanced technology.
This kind of entertainment multimedia terminal should be able to be accepted by everyone.
Players can play great games, movie watchers can also use this product to enjoy movies at any time, and the same goes for people who listen to music.
“Then do it.” Nagao Yu said with a slightly fierce expression.
"Do this? How?" Hayakawa Ueto was slightly startled.
“How about lowering the price of the handheld console to $200? It’s only $50 more expensive than the competition, and bundle it with a game and sell it simultaneously.”
Hayakawa Ueto looked at Nagao Yu strangely: "Then the money lost in the early stage..."
“You hand over all channels other than your official store sales to me, and I will run them.”
Hayakawa Ueto was startled by Nagao Ue's words: "Are you going to bear this loss? I know you have money, but this kind of loss is probably a bottomless pit. How will you make it back later?"
"Then you need to increase the scale of mass production and reduce costs as soon as possible. I am willing to bear this loss because I am ready to put my bets on Surui Electronics. Our latest games will be available in your palms." On the machine, if it fails, it will fail together, and then the many game companies I have acquired will become bad debts one after another."
At this moment, Changweiyu seemed to be a little aggressive.
After being rejected by Zhu Youxing, he will feel humiliated, but he can also realize the future of the game industry. He hopes to enter the game, but he has never found the right direction.
And sometimes business really needs to make a big gamble, that is, bet on the future direction.
If the bet wins, he will become a dazzling star in the new era; if the bet fails, then he will disappear from everyone.
Now that he has so much money on hand, he will not spend it until it is in vain. At worst, if he fails, he will bear debts that he cannot repay, and then he can just live on the subsistence allowance and wait to die.
Hayakawa Ueto took a deep look at Nagao Yu.
“Let me ask you, can you leave all sales channels other than official channels to me?”
"Of course. As the president, I can at least make the decision in this regard."
It also sounds outrageous to hand over the sales channel of a product line to one company.
But if a president insists on doing this, other shareholders, even if they are dissatisfied, do not want to create a rift over this matter.
Anyway, if the sales situation is really bad, if they protest and take back the sales authority, it will only be a short-term loss at most, which is acceptable.
"Okay, then I'll make arrangements right away. It just so happens that my company is currently studying sales channels for online shopping. I plan to find ways to open up the entire sales network in the near future. If I can get exclusive rights to sell cheap game consoles, then maybe I can start a business. to achieve unexpected results.”
Hayakawa Ueto finally made the decision to make a bet with Nagao Yu. Failure is not terrible, but the terrible thing is to admit defeat at the beginning.
The price difference of fifty dollars seems to be not small, but if you have better graphics, it is not impossible to play. Next is the real game battle. Whoever has the best game will win this game. The ultimate victory in competition.
…
The four-day International Consumer Electronics Show came to an end quietly over time.
But the topic this year is much more popular than in previous years.
Previous Consumer Electronics Shows occasionally had a few outstanding products reported.
But this year is different. This year, the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two camps of Surui Electronics and Youxing Electronic Entertainment has become a hot topic.
Perhaps humans really like to be the masses.
This kind of fighting scene always ignites their blazing fire of gossip.
‘The battle between Yusei and Shuri, the most powerful game consoles is going on! ’
‘A life-and-death competition is inevitable. Who will be the final winner? ’
‘The latest news, Brown Entertainment, a subsidiary of Huck Brown, announced that its works will be launched on both Youxing and Suri platforms at the same time. Is this a plan to eat two fishes? ’
‘The era of real booming development of the game industry has arrived! ’
News with various titles have been coming out one after another in the past few days, and people are full of food.
Players rarely have the opportunity to eat such melons, which can be regarded as a seasoning during the game.
How players choose has naturally become the focus of people's attention. For a time, the streets and communities are full of reporters interviewing them about video games. They will find young people or children to conduct surveys on games to find out what they like. Which game.
The result obtained at this time is that Youxing Electronic Entertainment has a certain advantage, but it cannot be said that absolute victory can be guaranteed now. Everything is really unknown.
