Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

Chapter 7 Development Planning

Hirohito Chida is a salesman at a well-known circuit board manufacturing factory in Tokyo.

In the previous few years, their company's performance was very good.

Orders came in almost like a frenzy of snowflakes.

At that time, the level of Japan's national economy changed day by day, rising like a rocket.

At the same time, people's demand for a high standard of living has also become stronger and stronger.

This also gave birth to the rapid expansion of industries such as personal computers, televisions, and mobile phones.

In addition, the technical level of this parallel world in the 1990s was equivalent to that of Zhu Youxing's previous life ten years later. Small mobile phones have also become popular. In this era, you can already see all kinds of flip phones popular on the streets.

Companies specializing in the production of circuit boards for various products will naturally flourish and earn a lot of money.

This is how Hirohito Chida's family made their way to the middle class.

However, the good times didn't last long.

Although the level of technology has advanced ten years, the history has not changed much.

The Japanese bubble that occurred on Earth in Zhuyouxing's previous life also exploded in this world at the same time.

Since that moment, the people have been in mourning.

They are no longer obsessed with the high consumption they used to be, and start to save money everywhere.

In the past, personal computers, high-end televisions, mobile phones, etc. were no longer necessities.

The profits of circuit board manufacturers have also begun to plummet, and they can only rely on a small number of orders from high-end automated machinery and equipment to maintain.

How fast it went up on a rocket in the past, now it falls as fast as the rocket explodes.

As a salesman, he was about to lose his job.

Thanks to the lifelong employment system of Japanese companies, he can still have a decent job. In addition, his family has always been relatively conservative. He has not invested recklessly, and he has not been hit too hard by the bubble. He is the luckiest family among thousands of people. wave of people.

It's just that people's demand for high-end consumer goods is less and less, and electronic products are the most dispensable things.

Even if his salesman is bound by the lifetime employment system, his current salary is pitifully low, at most he can only maintain the family's food and basic expenses.

Especially recently, the leaders above are frantically giving them orders and tasks. If they don't complete them, they will be greeted with Tuxiazao plus four hours a day of leaders yelling at them.

He is under infinite pressure now, and he can only feel better when he sees a happy child and a considerate wife at home, which makes him understand that it is worthwhile to sit down and be scolded by the company.

So even if the current situation is relatively bad, he will try his best to save some things to buy his favorite things for the children, so that the children can be filled with smiles.

However, today the child suddenly said that he wanted something completely new, and it sounded like it had something to do with TV.

He, a salesman who had been tortured by the leader for almost a week, couldn't help but start to move his mind.

"Come on, son, come and tell me what's going on, and what is this villain you're talking about doing on TV."

Hearing that his father seemed interested, Chida was even happier.

It seems that this time Dad can satisfy his request again!

"Dad is like this..."

At this moment, Takeyuho and Hayazawa Airi have been running outside for more than a week, and basically the two of them have completed all the strategies of the nearby parks.

In fact, Zhu Youxing still wants to attack more parks, but it seems that he was targeted by the police officers of the Metropolitan Police Department just yesterday. They warned Zhu Youxing not to set up stalls casually. The market will do.

So the plan to continue to promote the game can only be temporarily terminated.

But after traveling so many places, it has basically spread video games among children.

It even has a bit of an urban legend to it.

This has basically met Zhu Youxing's requirements, so he also changed his thinking and prepared for the next plan, which is to try to recruit some more manpower, and at the same time see if he can find a company that makes electrical appliances to try it out first. Some original red and white game consoles.

Zhu Youxing had to sigh that he came at the right time, just in time for the last train when a small electronic product workshop can make a fortune.

In the 1970s and 1980s, Jobs assembled a personal computer with two people in the garage, and Nintendo made the first red and white machine prototype with only three or four people.

What's more, after Bill Gates learned the Basic programming language at the age of 13, he could earn thousands of dollars with just two people.

If this is left two thousand years later, there is no way to develop it without forming a R\u0026D and manufacturing team with a size of several hundred people.

The myth of getting rich and famous is becoming more and more rare.

At this moment, the red and white machine in front of me has some experience from Zhu Youxing's previous life, and he has written a simple game system in the Basic language, which he rarely dabbled in in his previous life. pieced together.

Of course, the main reason is that the requirements of the game console system itself are much simpler than that of a personal computer, and it can be built without such complicated knowledge.

But to develop it, it is simply impossible to rely on such a prototype.

He needs to produce some more game consoles, at least, first produce a batch of game consoles that can be used in entertainment halls.

"Takeyou-san, what are you doing?"

Hayazawa Airi, who was finally able to rest, felt like a dream for the past two days.

The salary is paid every day, and she only needs to check the prototype every day for any loopholes.

Now she is drinking juice with a straw while looking curiously at the computer screen in front of Zhu Youxing.

"I'm working on a project."

"Proposal? Are you finally planning to sell the product? Let me tell you, this product is very popular with children, and it will definitely sell well!"

"It's hard to say." Zhu Youxing shook his head.

In this world though there is nothing competitive with its peers.

However, other entertainment industries in this world are quite strong, attracting the attention of most people. If they want to pull these people out of the original entertainment industry to play their games, Zhu Youxing can't guarantee that they will be able to. Smooth sailing.

Therefore, he must try his best to make the game attractive.

First of all, what needs to be done is to streamline and reduce the difficulty to enhance the refreshing feeling.

In the early years, games under red and white machines were generally quite difficult.

If you compare the large-scale games of the later 21st century, the games of the red and white machine era are probably the most difficult games of later generations. Among them, the nightmare-level difficulty games such as Devil's Village must be eliminated, which is not for people to play at all. .

"Is it hard to say? But I see those children are very happy playing games, and, in fact, I am also playing recently."

In the past two days, Hazawa Airi finally remembered to try Super Mario when he had nothing to do.

At any rate, it can be regarded as her help to make it, at least you have to experience it.

Then, she quickly fell.
