Chapter 634 Throwing yourself into the net

"However, there is another important question, that is, should our game consoles be compatible with Nintendo's game formats?" Duan Yongping threw a big bomb with a solemn expression!

Fang Chen couldn't help but squint his eyes, and he had to say that Duan Yongping's problem was very fatal, and it was even directly related to whether the Xiaobawang game machine and learning machine could be a hit in Southeast Asia.

"What do you think?" Fang Chen asked rhetorically.

"I think it's best to be compatible, but I just don't know if Nintendo makes trouble, Li Xiaohua's relationship in Malaysia and Huang Hongnian's relationship in Indonesia can be covered?" Duan Yongping was a little unsure and said hesitantly.

If you don't consider too many factors, just consider whether it has a benign promotion for the sales of the product, it is naturally compatible, and even he thinks that it can be promoted as a huge selling point.

Perhaps, as a result, consumers in Southeast Asia will still think that the technology level of the Xiaobawang game console is higher than that of Nintendo's red and white machine, otherwise Xiaobawang can be compatible, but why Nintendo can't be compatible with Xiaobawang's game card.

In that case, it is really possible for Xiaobawang to snatch the market share of game consoles in Southeast Asia away from Nintendo.

And the most important thing is that if it's incompatible, it's not a game.

Although Xiaobawang has been desperately transplanting the old games of these three companies to the Xiaobawang platform since the acquisition of Capcom Co., Ltd., but after all, it is a short fashion, and only seven or eight sets of games have been made now, and he expects that in two or three months, he will officially enter Southeast Asia, and at most thirty or forty sets of games can be made.

And there are many, in fact, they have been licensed to Nintendo, Sony and other game console companies before, and they are not very attractive to Southeast Asian players.

"Cover it!" Fang Chen said with a nonchalant expression.

Huang Hongnian's Huang family, although he has not yet become the richest man in Indonesia, is also one of the top ten richest people in Indonesia, needless to say.

And Li Xiaohua, since he dares to pull teeth from Petronas Malaysia, and even does the resale of land, how can a small matter of game console patent infringement not be covered?

And you know, Nintendo is just a game console company now, and the overall volume is not much bigger than Xiaobawang, and it has not yet reached its glory moment.

Nintendo's peak was after 2005, in 2007 Nintendo became the second largest company in the East after Toyota, and in 2009 it was named the top 40 of the world's best companies, and in fiscal year 2017, revenue almost exceeded 10 billion US dollars.

But in fact, at Nintendo's peak, it was only six or seven times the size of the current Xiaobawang.

Besides, how much power can a game company have in Southeast Asia? How could it be more profound than Li Xiaohua and Huang Hongnian's relationship in Malaysia and Indonesia.

So, it can be covered, it can be covered completely, at least in Malaysia and Indonesia.

As for other Southeast Asian countries, he has no plans to let Xiaobawang develop there for the time being, after all, manpower is sometimes poor, and he always has to eat one bite at a time, and he can't be fat in one breath.

In a short period of time, about half a year, he can run Malaysia and Indonesia well and set a model, and he already thinks it is very good.

Moreover, because the economic strength of Southeast Asia is still not good, Nintendo has never attached importance to Southeast Asia, that is, it has entrusted a few general agents in Southeast Asia, which is a little stronger than the situation in China.

After all, Nintendo is in China, let alone agents, and there is not even a formal sales point.

The Eastern Japanese mainland, Europe and the United States, at most, plus what treasure islands, South Korea, Australia, Canada, and other countries, can be regarded as areas that Nintendo attaches importance to.

As for lawsuits, he is even more afraid, although he doesn't know the laws of Southeast Asian countries such as Malaysia, whether there is a system of first instance and second instance, but presumably in any country, a lawsuit will not be a simple matter, let alone a lawsuit by such a huge enterprise as Xiaobawang and Nintendo.

A lawsuit for three or five years is definitely not a problem, and when the time comes, Xiaobawang has already laid a foundation in Southeast Asia, and maybe even Nintendo's market share has been taken away by him.

Besides, he doesn't necessarily have to lose, and even he thinks that if he fights a lawsuit, this win or loss is also five or five, after all, his game console does not infringe Nintendo's patents, but just that his game console is compatible with the cartridge of F games.

This can only show that he is highly skilled, and the game console has many functions, and it is not that he uses Nintendo's cartridge to play games on his game console, and he has the ability to sue consumers.

And by then, maybe Xiaobawang's game console has been developed for several generations, and even launched a 64-bit game console ahead of Nintendo, taking the lead in opening the N64 era.

Hearing this, Duan Yongping's mind was put down for the most part, but suddenly he didn't know what he thought, he seemed a little hesitant, and after a few seconds, he said embarrassedly: "And I think it is compatible with Nintendo's F game format, which can be used as a selling point for us to promote." ”

Fang Chen's eyes narrowed, he wanted to say, dog, no, Lao Duan, you have changed, Lao Duan couldn't say such shameless words before.

Being compatible by default and promoting it as a selling point are two very different concepts.

"Yes, you can do whatever you want, but you can't relax in the part of Xiaobawang's own games, in addition to letting Capcom Co., Ltd. make games, you can also contact some small game studios, such as GameFreak and HAL Research Institute, etc. Fang Chen nodded.

In fact, in the game ecology, Fang Chen is the most helpless, the game console is easy to do, but the game production is a problem, after all, the game console without games is worse than the situation of a smartphone without an app.

After all, without an app, the mobile phone can still make calls and send text messages, while the game console without games really has nothing.

In addition to Nintendo, Sony's game console companies and their own game production departments, there are also various large and small game production companies, and there are constantly people breaking away from some large game production companies to set up their own small companies or studios.

It is these game production companies, large and small, that provide ample ammunition and food for the development of Nintendo and Sony game consoles, which other countries cannot do.

This is also the reason why he insisted on acquiring game companies such as Capcom Co., Ltd., and he was borrowing chickens to lay eggs and borrowing game companies from Dongwa to cultivate game production talents in China.

In this way, perhaps in the era of mobile games, in the era of online games, Huaxia will be able to stand out and surpass game companies such as Dongwai, South Korea, Europe and the United States.

"Well, I'll get to work on these things. An inexplicable glint flashed in Duan Yongping's eyes.

The two names mentioned by Fang Chen reminded him a little of the time when he was closed, when he went to these small game companies to buy games, and these game companies either didn't sell them to him, or fooled him with those garbage games that he couldn't buy.

It was precisely because of that humiliating experience that he was determined to buy Capcom and other game companies without hesitation.

When he turned around, he gave an order to Capcom Co., Ltd., these game companies, and asked them to send people to talk to those small game production companies, and he wanted to see if these small game production companies had the face to continue to come out with garbage games in the face of Capcom Co., Ltd., a giant in the game industry.

"There is another problem, Capcom Co., Ltd. wants to continue to develop arcade games, they have a game called "Street Fighter 89" or something, it has been made, the substrate is ready, and they want to apply for funds to promote it, which means to continue to sell. Duan Yongping said casually.

Street Fighter?

Fang Chen rolled his eyes several times, he really wanted to reach out through the microphone, drag Duan Yongping in front of him, and tell him that it was "Street Fighter" and not Street Fighter.

Duan Yongping really didn't care, this was mentioned by Capcom Co., Ltd. President Ben Kenzo when he reported to him on his work.

Although when Ben Xiansan said it, it was very solemn.

But you must know that he now has more than 10,000 employees under his command, and he is responsible for it every day, and he doesn't know how many things he decides, and the problem of a game produced by a branch not being listed on the market, it is really small in his place, and if it weren't for Fang Chen's mention of game production, he wouldn't even say anything.

"Sell! The company vigorously supports him to sell! The company will give him as much money as he wants. Fang Chen said through a bit of gritted teeth.

What are you kidding, he is still counting on the success of "Street Fighter II" and earning back the money he made to buy the game company, if this project dies in the hands of Duan Yongping, he will split Duan Yongping's heart alive.

"That's okay, just buy horse bones as a daughter, and let these game companies know that the company bought them to manage and support them well. Duan Yongping nodded slightly.

Fang Chen was a little crazy, he really didn't mean that.

However, Lao Duan, you can be happy.

"In addition, there is another question, can we add one or two arcade machine production lines, introduce the arcade machines of Togaku, and sell them in China, or even form a model in which Capcom Co., Ltd. is responsible for design and domestic production. Duan Yongping asked.

Fang Chen took a deep breath, he was really going crazy, he regretted it a little, why did he want to talk to Duan Yongping, a workaholic, about work, isn't this self-defeating, it's good now, Duan Yongping's questions are simply countless, this call has been made for almost two hours, and it's not over the fuck.

"You think about this yourself!" Fang Chen said angrily.

Everything has to be decided by him, the boss, so why does he want Duan Yongping, the general manager, to eat.
