   Chapter 254 We have other products to sell

  In Japan, eSports is in full swing.

Zhu Yuxing gave a detailed development outline, determined the general direction of e-sports, and then reminded a few regional chaebols to try to use the relationship between their respective regions and have more government lobbyists to ensure that From the beginning, e-sports cannot be classified as a gambling industry, so that e-sports in Japan will still be played in the future. .

   In the end, Zhu Yuxing directly hired management talents from the professional team league to manage it, giving them a direction, and the rest can operate by themselves.

   However, this matter has to be taken slowly. The date of the real Japan-US competition is also set at the end of the year, so there is still enough time. Let your subordinates get the general framework first, and you only need to control each key development and alleviate it.

   Do these things well, the time has come to July 1996.

   Time flies, and it has been more than three years since I unknowingly came to this world.

  From the very beginning, I have gradually become accustomed to it.

   He really enjoys the state of always being able to immerse himself in the things he loves the most.

   If it is a previous life, he can only be passive 996 all the time, always doing the work that does not know when it will end.

And next, then continue to make persistent efforts, strive to enter the 3D era as soon as possible, and also give the world a blockbuster result from the very beginning, Zhu Yuxing is ready to make the first 3D game, which is the official release of Doom Warrior. Version.

Speaking of which, it seems that I can start thinking about starting a special effects team. It is best to buy one directly. There are many such companies in the United States, and most of them are just starting out. It is just right to acquire one at this time. .

   At the same time, in a supermarket in the United States, a middle-aged man was looking for something.

   It didn't take long for him to come to a place that specialized in selling children's toys.

   He took out a note from his pocket and glanced at the contents.

   "SFC game console and a few boxes of game cartridges, these two things?"

  The middle-aged man muttered something, then put the note back into his pocket and walked into the toy store.

   "Hello sir, what can I do for you."

   "Hello, I want to buy one...one...game..."

   "A game console, right?" the toy store waiter immediately reminded.

   "Oh yes, it's a game console, do you have it here?"

   "Of course, this is a hot-selling product recently, and some are often out of stock, so it's hard to buy."

  The clerk has been taken aback.

   With the popularity of video games, the number of players is starting to skyrocket at an astonishing rate.

  At the beginning of the year, there were probably two or three million gamers in the United States, including PC players and console players.

  Those Wall Street experts predict that this number may double by the end of the year, which is a very optimistic industry.

Once the news of   Wall Street Heart was released, countless capitals were immediately invested in this industry, allowing the entire industry to expand rapidly.

Then, only half a year has passed. As of July, the number of players in the United States has reached more than 4 million, which is much faster than the expected growth rate. If this trend continues, the end of the year may not only be It's as simple as doubling.

   This is amazing, and it's something that people on the Wall Street side didn't even expect.

   As a result, more hot money is invested, and the entire industry is thriving.

   There are as many as ten types of game consoles just sold in department stores.

   There are sixteen-bit, and three 32-bit consoles that have been officially released.

   There are so many types of games that players can pick up their eyes.

   "There are so many kinds." The middle-aged man was a little dazed when he saw the stack of game consoles and game cassettes.

   He doesn't understand video games, he just buys game consoles at the request of his children.

   "If you don't know what to buy, sir, I can recommend it to you," said the clerk.

   "Oh yes, I have this." The middle-aged man immediately took out his own note, which the child wrote to himself.

  The clerk took the note and glanced at the contents.

   Then he showed an apologetic look: "I'm very sorry sir, we are temporarily out of stock for this product because it's very popular."

   "Is that so..." The middle-aged man felt a little regretful.

"However, sir, you can buy other game consoles and games. You can see that the price of this SFC game console has reached 199 dollars, and the average price of a game is also more than 60 dollars. This price is actually a little expensive. ."

  The middle-aged man nodded subconsciously: "It seems...that's it."

The clerk immediately pointed to the game console on the shelf and said, "Look, sir, we actually have a lot of better choices now. For example, this 16-bit game console is only priced at $129, and the average price of each game is only $10. There is no difference between the knife and the game, in fact, you can buy this, with the same price, you can buy more games, I think your children should also be very happy."

  It's cheap in large quantities, and it sounds really exciting.

   The middle-aged man seemed unable to take his eyes off the game consoles.

   seems to be the case, buy more games by yourself, even if there are really not fun, there must be fun.

   Kids, look at the consoles and games I bought, isn't it a good thing I bought more games for the same price.

   "Okay, then you help me choose a few games, just buy this game console."

   "Ok sir, thank you for your patronage!"

  The clerk is very happy.

   Sold another game console.

   Recently, SFC has been out of stock because of the popularity of video games.

   Zhu Yuxing has thought about increasing the production, but there must be a factory to help with the OEM.

The production rate before    can meet the capacity of Japan as a country, but the combination of the United States and Japan has become a little difficult.

   Zhu Yuxing has been trying to find a way to increase production, but he has not seen much in a short time.

   And this gives other game makers some opportunities to take advantage of.

  SFC and GB are out of stock, so you can only buy these game consoles.

   And sometimes only the games on SFC and GB can't meet the needs of players. Children always have plenty of time, they simply can't play enough, and in the end they can only find more consoles and games.

  The middle-aged man spent two hundred dollars to buy a game console, and also bought a full nine games of various types.

   Looking at the bag full of products, he showed a satisfied smile. He had already begun to expect his children to be happy when they saw so many games.
