Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 789 pestering
Chapter 789: Endless Entanglement
788
Facebook as a whole is very happy, so other companies are bound to be unhappy.
This unhappy company is Mickford.
Myron Keys frowned at Facebook’s sales figures.
This Facebook has really good luck.
There is such a golden figure as Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
At the same time, he also had to admit that video games are indeed one of the growth points that stimulate mobile phone sales.
Then, next to this Facebook data, is Mickford’s sales data.
This data is also publicly available to the outside world.
Previous data statistics agencies also directly compared the data of Facebook and Mickford.
Among them, Facebook sales increased by 10%.
Mickford’s sales have subsequently dropped by about 3%.
Originally, Mickford's market share was relatively high. This decline does not seem to be as large as Facebook's increase. However, based on the volume, it can be roughly inferred that all the sales increases lost by Mickford have gone to Went to facebook.
Sometimes, it is really difficult for people to resist the temptation of cheap products.
And if the quality and performance of this cheap product itself are not much worse than that of expensive products, it will further highlight the cost-effectiveness of cheap products.
Of course, Mickford also has many fans. They think that the MK series mobile phones represent a person's status and cannot be replaced by cheap products.
But these people still seem a bit hard to resist when faced with the flood of Facebook users.
Those who like Facebook really like this product from the bottom of their hearts.
Because you can experience old games here, it is good news for old players.
You only need to carry one product to play many games.
They also have the most favorable impressions of Facebook series mobile phones.
Now that Facebook is on the rise, even economic professionals are beginning to predict how long Mickford can last under the cooperation between Facebook and Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Perhaps in another year or two, Mickford will become an expensive and intimidating product. Unless they also make changes, they will be destined to disappear from everyone.
“How is the development of the latest game I want going?”
Myron Case asked a manager next to him while staring at the two pieces of data on his desk.
“The development progress has come to an end and it can be launched almost at any time. According to our estimation, it should be able to slightly boost our sales.”
Myron Keys nodded: “Are there any development plans for subsequent games?”
“This...not yet, because the development team is now fully devoted to the development of this game.”
After listening to this, Myron Keys pointed to a name in the data table on Facebook and said: "Can we make this type of game?"
The game Myron Keys is pointing to is Candy Crush.
"This game? This game has not been tried in any market before, and it is not entirely sure whether it will be popular."
Myron Keyes raised an eyebrow: “Isn’t Facebook’s sales data still completely certain?”
“Um...I know, I will arrange for someone to study this game and develop it as soon as possible.”
“As soon as possible, shareholders have become increasingly dissatisfied with me, and... chip research and development also requires money.”
If he had a choice, Myron Keys would not want video games to completely invade his mobile phone no matter what.
But...the increase in device sales brought about by video games is real.
He is a visionary who can clearly see the future sales trend of electronic products.
He can also clearly foresee that the future will belong to mobile smart devices.
Now he must admit that video games can bring very stable cash flow.
But in fact, he can continue to stick to his strategy and avoid being occupied by video games on his mobile phone as much as possible.
Because of the lessons learned from the past, he still has absolute say in Mickford.
Those shareholders cannot completely influence his decision. At most, these shareholders will withdraw their shares and give up Mickford.
But Myron Keys cannot do this, not because of shareholders, but because he needs more money.
He wants to develop chips and expand into more areas.
Especially in the PC market, he wants to get back into it. He has never been reconciled to not having a place in the traditional PC market.
He hopes he can re-emerge in the PC market.
It's just that all this requires him to improve in chip research and development. He doesn't want to become a simple assembly factory.
But without money, he would not be able to achieve any of this.
So no matter how unwilling he is, he will use video games.
Just as the manager was about to leave, Myron Keys stopped him again: "By the way, didn't you suggest negotiating with Surui Electronics and inviting them to log their game products onto our mobile phones? How is the progress? Sample?"
“This... our people are still negotiating with Suri Electronics.”
Myron Keyes wondered: "Still negotiating? Did they put forward any excessive conditions?"
"That's not true. They have just been keeping our people indifferent. Our people have come to Suri Electronics many times. Almost every time, their company's senior executives are busy and have no intention of meeting our people. "
“You don’t want to cooperate with us.” Myron Keys narrowed his eyes, “Do you know the specific reason?”
The manager said cautiously: "It's...not clear yet."
Myron Keyes looked at this management with a sharp look, which immediately made the middle- and high-level manager start to sweat.
However, Myron Keyes did not say much, but waved his hand and said: "You go out, it's okay, continue to follow up on Suri Electronics' negotiations, we can give more discounts on the share, just like Facebook and Same as Yuxing Electronic Entertainment."
"Okay, I know."
…
In the Surui Electronics Building in Tokyo, Japan, three or five Westerners are very conspicuous.
They were sitting in the rest area of the hall chatting casually, occasionally laughing.
“President, those people from Mickford are here again.”
As Hayakawa Ueto's assistant, responsible for all daily affairs, a group of uninvited guests have come recently.
They initially asked Surui Electronics to cooperate with them in a very bossy manner, but Su Rui Electronics refused without hesitation.
But the other party didn’t seem to care, and kept coming over to ask for cooperation without getting tired of it.
For these expatriates, they actually regard this place more as a vacation place. It doesn’t matter if they stay for a few more days, and their wages will still be paid.
Hayakawa Ueto said with a slightly mocking expression: "Are you here again? It's really annoying."
