Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

  Chapter 7 Development Planning

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

   In previous years, their company was doing very well.

  Orders came almost like a frenzy of snowflakes.

   At that time, the national economic level of Japan was the same day by day, rising like a rocket.

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

   This has also spawned 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 the level of Zhuyouxing’s previous life ten years later, and small mobile phones have also become popular. In this era, you can already see all kinds of flip phones popular on the streets.

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

  Tomoda Hirohito's family moved towards the middle class in this way.

   However, the good times did not last long.

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

   The Japanese bubble that occurred on the Earth in the previous life of Takeyusei also burst at the same time in this world.

   Since that moment, the people have been mourning everywhere.

   They are no longer obsessed with the high consumption of the past, and began to frugal food everywhere.

  In the past, products such as personal computers, high-end TVs, mobile phones, etc. are no longer necessary for people.

The benefits of    circuit board production enterprises also began to plummet, and they could only be maintained by a small number of orders from high-end automated machinery and equipment.

  How fast the rockets rose in the past, how fast the rockets fall when they explode now.

   As a salesman, he is about to lose his way.

Thanks to the lifetime employment system of Japanese companies, he can still have a decent job. In addition, his family has always been conservative, without reckless investment, and it has not been hit too hard under the bubble. He is the luckiest among thousands of families. wave of people.

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

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

  Especially recently, the leaders above frantically gave them orders and tasks. If they didn’t complete them, they would be greeted with the scolding of the leaders for four hours a day.

   He is now under a lot of pressure, and he can only feel better when he sees a happy child and a caring wife at home, so that he understands that it is worthwhile to be scolded by the company.

   So even if the situation is worse now, he will try to save some things to buy his favorite things for the children, so that the children can be full of 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, the salesman who had been tortured by the leader for almost a week, could not help but start to move his brain.

   "Come on son, come and tell me what's going on, and what is the purpose of this villain who is active on TV."

   Hearing that his father seemed very interested, Chi Tiano was even more happy.

   It seems that this time Dad can meet his requirements again!

   "Dad is like this..."

   At this moment, Takeyusei and Hayasawa Airi have been running outside for more than a week. Basically, the two of them have completed all the nearby parks.

In fact, Zhu Youxing wants to attack more parks, but just yesterday, it seems that the police officers of the Metropolitan Police Department have been eyeing. They warned Zhu Youxing not to set up a stall casually. If you want to set up a stall, you must go to the designated freedom Market will do.

   So the plan to continue promoting the game can only end temporarily.

   But having traveled so much, basically, video games have begun to spread among children.

   even brought a little urban legend color.

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

  Bamboo Yuxing had to sigh that it was time for him to come, just in time for the last train when a small electronics workshop could get rich.

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

   Even Bill Gates can earn thousands of dollars with just two people after learning the Basic programming language at the age of 13.

   If this is put on hold in two thousand years, it will not be possible to develop without forming a R&D and manufacturing team with a scale of several hundred people.

  The myth of getting rich and famous is also increasingly scarce.

At this moment, the red and white machine in front of him has some experience in the past life of Zhuyouxing, plus he has written a simple game system in the Basic language, which he has rarely dabbled in in his previous life, and there is a passable electronic and electrical professional employee, but it is barely built. Pieced together.

   Of course, it is mainly because the game console system itself has much simpler requirements than a personal computer, and it can be built without such complicated knowledge.

   But if you want to develop it, it is impossible to just rely on such a prototype.

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

   "Bamboo Yusang, what are you doing?"

   Hayasawa Airi, who was finally able to rest, felt like she was dreaming these 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 from a straw while looking curiously at the computer screen in front of Zhu Yuxing.

   "I'm working on a project."

   "Project? You're finally going to sell the product? Let me tell you, this thing is very popular with children, and it will definitely sell well!"

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

   In this world, although there are no competitive counterparts.

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

   So, he has to try his best to make the game as attractive as possible.

   First of all, what we need to do is to simplify and reduce the difficulty and improve the sense of coolness.

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

If you compare the large-scale games in the later 21st century, the games in the era of red and white machines are estimated to be the difficulty of the games of the later generations. Among them, the nightmare-level difficulty game such as Devil Village must be eliminated. It is not played by people at all. .

   "Isn't it hard to say? But I see that the children are having a good time playing games, and, in fact, I have been playing recently."

   When Airi Hayasawa had nothing to do for the past two days, he finally remembered to try Super Mario.

   This is something she helped to make, at least you have to experience it.

   Then, she fell quickly.
