Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 490 ten years of development
Chapter 490: Ten Years of Development
489
The performance of the symphony orchestra is over, followed by various stars invited by Zhu Youxing.
But this is just to satisfy these players, Zhuyouxing is not interested in symphony orchestra performance.
Throughout the day, players were immersed in the happy atmosphere of the carnival.
This is much more interesting than those exhibitions.
Because it can be more open here.
The exhibition does not have such a grand concert, nor can it have anything like a stage play. It can only be found in this kind of carnival.
Looking at the response from these players, Zhu Youxing became even more convinced that he needed to build a theme park that belonged to Youxing Electronic Entertainment, or a theme park that belonged to previous video games.
But there is still a long way to go.
“How about Senior Bu Gong? This carnival, as well as the social effects brought about by this carnival, and the rapid improvement of the economy of surrounding areas due to the carnival, are great, right?”
Among the crowded crowd, there were a few people in formal clothes.
They are obviously government officials, and the purpose of coming here is to see the carnival here.
Previously, Takeyusei convinced the Deputy Minister of Asakusa of the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, and then he became a lobbyist to persuade other people in government agencies to agree to Takeyusei's suggestions.
Japan’s economy has been in a sluggish state for a long time now, and no matter what methods they use, they cannot reactivate the economy.
But at this moment, Zhu Youxing suddenly appeared and gave them a plan.
They have had the idea of making Japan a tourist country before, but they have not yet figured out how to implement it.
Then Zhu Youxing took the initiative to propose that he would provide most of the funds to hold a carnival.
The government only needs to help publicize it and then grant the land authorization.
It is not easy to ask the government to help promote this, but Youxing Electronic Entertainment does already have this strength.
After discussions in the Japanese Senate and careful consideration by the economic department, they finally agreed to Zhu Yuxing's suggestion and decided to join Zhu Yuxing's so-called plan, giving him a space and environment to show off his so-called plan. Tourism economic stimulus plan.
Now is the time to show the results.
Government officials came to the carnival and were amazed to see the huge crowds of people, more than half of whom were from overseas.
“Is this the charm of video games? I remember this industry has only been around for ten years, right?”
The speaker is a highly respected old man in the Senate. His name is Jincheng Bugong, and he is also very prestigious in his party.
They are also the party faction to which this term’s prime minister belongs.
So Jincheng Bugun is very concerned about the national economy and life.
After all, this is related to the black gauze hat on his head and the overall layout of the party.
In his past conception, an industry would have to have a history of at least several decades before it would become something that people would spread word of mouth and become truly popular.
Because industries need a crowd base.
It would be easier to say that it is only popular in one country.
But now look at the size of the crowd at this carnival, this is already a popular industry in the world.
It’s really amazing.
He couldn't stop making waves of admiration.
Although many people in the society have criticized video games, thinking that they are a model of losing one's morale through playthings and are a degenerate thing, it is impossible for this old man to judge that video games are bad things for this reason.
He has to make judgments based on the tendencies of the entire population.
Since video games are so popular and people all over the world like them, they should be promoted and promoted instead of listening to boring guys criticizing video games.
They know nothing about this game?
They know nothing about the national economy?
Don’t even understand what you’re talking about?
As long as this thing can boost the national economy and seems to have almost no negative harm, this is the best thing.
Beside Bu Gong is Asakusa from the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology.
He is also considered an old member of Bu Gong, and this time he took this old man to watch the grand carnival together.
Asakusa said: "In fact, video games should have a history of thirty or forty years, but before the kid Takeyusei appeared, the entire industry was still in an exploratory state, but after the kid Takeyusei appeared, The entire industry was completely activated and began to conquer the world at lightning speed.”
This world is indeed not a video game created by Zhu Youxing. People in this world are not even capable of developing video games.
It’s just that no one realized that this thing would bring entertainment at the beginning. The person who created the video game was also an experimental project in a university. After the experimental project ended, there was no movement.
Later on, some people also tried commercialization, but because the games they developed were really not fun and they didn't make much money, the industry has been left out.
One of the reasons is that other cultural industries in this world are very developed, so people have no time to pay attention to an emerging industry, unless this industry can really burst out unimaginable works from the beginning, which will surprise people at a glance. Can't help myself.
Before the emergence of Zhuyouxing, the game industry was not paid attention to.
Then Bamboo Yusei launched Super Mario, as well as Tetris, Dragon Quest and so on.
These were ultra-classic and enduring top-level games in the previous life. In the desert of game culture in this world, they are like dropping a blockbuster, overturning the entire desert.
The game industry has also begun to flourish since then.
Hearing Asakusa's explanation, Bu Gong was even more impressed: "This child named Takeyusei is indeed extraordinary."
For two people who are both over sixty years old, Zhu Youxing can indeed be regarded as a child.
At this time, Asakusa suggested: "Senior Bu Gong, I think we can increase publicity and investment in the video game industry, just like the animation industry. This will probably become the pillar of our future, and it will also be a role in promoting culture to the world. good chance."
“Well, this is a good idea and can be advanced. I will also propose this matter in the next Senate meeting.”
Asakusa is very happy that his suggestion has received clear feedback, so the next step is how to increase the promotion of video games.
Just based on industry estimates in the past few days, Youxing Electronic Entertainment has driven at least more than 20 billion in peripheral economic income. The spending power of these foreigners is really amazing, which reminds him somewhat of the time when Japan was still in a bubble. The era before the economy collapsed.
It was really a good time at that time, but it is a pity that it is gone forever.
These government figures are very eye-catching among the crowd, but they are not so conspicuous in the entire tens of thousands of square meters of the carnival site.
At the same time, there were many people in the crowd who were once considered competitors of Zhuyouxing. They saw that Youxing Electronic Entertainment had developed like this, and they felt a lot of disappointment in their hearts.
They belong to the defeated group and can only look up to the successful ones who stand at the top and look down at everything.
Of course, there are some people who are not willing to accept it. They want to challenge Youxing Electronic Entertainment again, develop their own good games, and shake the status of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Didi, drip, drip.
At this moment, someone’s cell phone in the crowd rang an alarm.
The man seemed to be a professional, wearing a shirt and tie, and looked a little dazed in the crowd.
The alarm clock kept beeping until someone pushed him.
“Let’s go, the time is up, we just have to face it.”
The man with dazed eyes came back to his senses, turned to look at the person behind him who reminded him, and then nodded in despair.
These people are all wearing uniform workplace shirts, and their identities can be confirmed by the signs on their chests.
They are a flash memory chip manufacturer.
In this round of competition between Youxing Electronic Entertainment and Surui Electronics, in addition to the two companies always competing for the first place, many upstream and downstream industries have been affected.
The biggest impact is on some small and medium-sized flash memory manufacturers.
The market for optical disc storage technology is now very broad, and Surui Electronics and Youxing Electronic Entertainment seem to have confirmed this.
The sales volume of their two game consoles using optical disc storage far exceeds that of game consoles using flash memory cartridges.
This has also led to more consumers being willing to choose optical discs for storage consumption, and cassettes are secondary.
Larger flash memory manufacturers can also rely on enterprise orders to produce enterprise-level flash memory products.
This market still exists and will not change due to the turbulence in the personal consumption field.
But small and medium-sized companies are a bit unable to bear it.
They are unlikely to steal many enterprise-level production orders from large companies.
Can only rely on the civilian consumption sector to survive.
Especially in Japan, labor costs have never been able to come down, and the bursting of the bubble has caused many people to be heavily in debt.
The boss of this flash memory manufacturer originally owed a lot of debt due to failed investments when the bubble burst. If he hadn't been able to barely rely on his factory to continue to pay back the money slowly, he might have hanged himself long ago.
However, there are unforeseen circumstances, and flash memory technology is no longer popular in the civilian market.
He regretted more than once that raising prices caused him to drive away flash memory orders from a large company, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
At the time, he just wanted to make more money to repay the money, but it was really stupid to pass the cost on to a company like Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Then, when the flash memory factory was about to be unable to support itself, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment stepped forward and gave them the last and only option.
That is to package and sell the company and technology patents to Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Yusing Electronic Entertainment does have some demand for flash memory production. It would be very cost-effective if it could purchase a flash memory manufacturer at a cheaper price to produce cassettes for itself.
At this time, the boss has no other choice but to agree.
Otherwise, he would be crushed by debt immediately. Now, at least, by selling it, he can pay off all the debt, and at the same time, he can leave a sum of money to allow himself and his children to live a relatively decent life.
The loss must be stopped in time.
So, Youxing Electronic Entertainment agreed to have the final negotiation with him at the carnival site on the day of the carnival.
It was just not long after the concert ended that the boss of the flash memory factory and several of his close employees walked to the business negotiation area.
