"Chairman, I don't understand, please give me some advice. ”

Huo Jianning calmed down and said in a sincere tone.

Xia Yu smiled and said, "It's literal, since "Alien E· T is not necessary for Tiangong Electronics, so let it be given to Atari. ”

"Do you think that if Tiangong Electronics is allowed to develop "Alien E· How long does it take to go from development to launch?"

Huo Jianning is not a stupid person, when Xia Yu dialed here, he had already roughly guessed the chairman's intentions.

He smiled and said: "If we come to research and development, if we do it casually, we can develop it in three or four weeks, if we want to ensure our consistent quality of high-quality products, and there is follow-up development, then at least three or four months of polishing." ”

"It also takes a month or two for the game to be developed and produced and then shipped to the distributor. ”

"So the whole process is generally about half a year. ”

Xia Yu said with a light smile: "It's only a little more than three months before Christmas, and it's less than a hundred days. ”

"Do you think that even though Alien E· The rights to the game are in the hands of Atari, is it possible for them to develop a good game?"

Huo Jianning shook his head and said with great certainty: "Absolutely impossible!"

"Although Atari now has a large number of employees, there are more than 100 game projects in development, which is far worse than ours when put into a single project. ”

"If Atari buys Alien E· The copyright of "T", it must be to take advantage of the current popularity of the movie to quickly harvest the market, this game will definitely be the main game of Christmas, with the character of Atari, at least a few million must be produced, which will take a long time, and a month and a half is considered tense. ”

"Excluding the time to negotiate the acquisition of the rights, there is only a little more than a month left for Atari to develop. ”

"With the overall impetuous atmosphere of Atari now, it will definitely be able to be developed in more than a month, but the quality is definitely average, or even very poor. ”

Xia Yu spread out his hand and said with a smile: "That's not it." ”

"Alien E· The higher the popularity of the T" movie, the higher the audience's expectations for the game, which is a double-edged sword. ”

"If the game is well developed, it will be able to achieve both fame and fortune. ”

"If the game is not well developed, the more consumers in the pit, the greater the rebound will naturally be, and it will even stab itself to death. ”

"Since you said that consumers have a lot of grievances against Atari's shoddy manufacturing, then take this opportunity to see if you can take a gamble and detonate the emotions of consumers. ”

"Maybe we can kill Atari at once, and we don't need to wait a few more years to step on the corpse of Atari at the end of this year or early next year. ”

Xia Yu's words and the picture described made Huo Jianning a little excited.

It's just that I think of "Alien E· T" movie, if it was ruined by Atari Company, he couldn't help but feel pity.

He raised his concerns: "Chairman, if Atari really puts the "Alien E· T" has a bad reputation, will it cause problems for MGM Pictures and Galaxy Pictures......?

Xia Yu glanced at him and said, "So this requires you to earn back as much value as possible." ”

"You have to get involved in raising the price, delaying time, and at the same time, making Atari pay a higher price to win the "Alien E· T", to obtain more benefits for MGM Pictures and Galaxy Pictures. ”

"The most important thing is that Tiangong Electronics wants to fight for strength, and strive to launch a powerful offensive at Christmas, defeat Atari in one fell swoop, and grab the market that originally belonged to it. ”

"Having done both, Alien E· It's worth it if the game value of T suffers. ”

Huo Jianning suddenly felt an extra pressure on his shoulders, but this pressure was also quickly converted into strong power.

If Atari can seize half of the market of tens of millions of consoles sold annually, sales alone are enough to increase the sales of Tiangong Electronics' game department by one billion dollars a year, and if you add the sales of game cartridges driven by it, sales can run to two billion dollars, and this income can indeed far exceed that of "Alien E· T" is worth the game.

Since the chairman personally arranged this matter, then he couldn't let the chairman down!

He took a deep breath and nodded heavily and promised: "Chairman, I understand, please rest assured, I will do my best to defeat Atari Company!"

"Hmm!"

"I'm waiting for your good news!"

Xia Yu said with a smile on his face.

"Go ahead, I'll call Barry Diller and Wu Siyuan of MGM Pictures first, and you can contact the two of them directly when the time comes. ”

"Okay. ”

"Chairman, then I'll go out first. ”

"Hmm. ”

Watching Huo Jianning leave with a calm and steady pace, Xia Yu showed a smile, and then continued to be busy.

......

After returning, Huo Jianning quickly made a plan, and conspired with Barry Diller and Wu Siyuan to set up a pit for Atari Company.

Then at the beginning stage, there is no need for Huo Jianning to worry about it, MGM Pictures will leak the news, "Alien E· The game rights of T really attracted a large number of game companies to flock to it, and Atari was angry at the same time, but had to lick its face to participate in the competition.

In "Alien E· When the game copyright of T stirred up the global game market.

Huo Jianning received the two teams in the conference room of Tiangong Electronics.

They are a team led by Demps Jerry, vice president and head of the CD disc project at Philips in the Netherlands, and a team led by Nozomi Matsumoto, vice president and head of the CD project at Sony.

The little devil has always been thick-skinned and treacherous.

After a brief chat, Matsumoto Nozomi kindly threw out a letter of intent for cooperation.

"President Huo, in the field of CD disc technology, Sony is a pioneer, but also has been fulfilling the responsibility of developing the industry, for the technology has never been hidden, Tiangong Electronics has purchased a large number of technical patents from us before. ”

"This time, your company has made some new developments on the basis of the original technology, we have also seen the samples sent by your company, for your company's scientific research strength, we are very recognized, in order to promote the prosperity of this industry as soon as possible, I hope to be able to buy your company's related technology." ”

After Matsumoto finished speaking, Demps Jerry also smiled and said, "President Huo, our Philips company also has this cooperation intention. ”

Huo Jianning calmed down, probably looked at the letter of intent for cooperation handed over by Matsumoto Wang, secretly sneered, pressed the letter of intent for cooperation under his hands, and said without hesitation: "I'm sorry, our technology is not transferred to the outside world, this is the bottom line of all cooperation." ”

Hearing this, the smile on Matsumoto's face, which was still smiling, disappeared instantly.

But he didn't get angry, he still kept his patience, and said to Huo Jianning with a solemn face: "President Huo, you are not a technical R&D person, you may not know, the technology that Tiangong Electronics holds now is not irreplaceable, we and Philips are fully capable of developing other technologies, and the audio track can also be changed." ”

"But the laser disc market is an emerging market, and we believe that the technology is only at the bottom of the pyramid. ”

"In this case, working together to create the foundation of this market is the most important, which is also the original intention of our company and Philips to establish the Yellow Book standard and warmly welcome the world to join this alliance.

Matsumoto Nozomi sang Red Face, and Demps Jerry immediately sang White Face.

He continued: "Matsumoto was right when he said first, technology sharing is the essence of social progress, and it is also a necessary way to mature the market. ”

"Although Tiangong Electronics has a small number of unique technologies, but if it wants to be successfully introduced to the market, it still needs a huge industry to support. ”

"Without the support of the industrial chain, Tiangong Electronics will not be able to create value even if it has technology, so it will not be able to continue to develop more advanced technology. ”

"I think President Huo should understand this truth. ”

Hearing Demps Jerry's implied threatening words, Huo Jianning still sat calmly.

I saw him smile lightly and said: "Technology is impossible to sell, if Philips and Sony want to use it, I can license your company's technology, or we will exchange technology, just these two ways." ”

As soon as Huo Jianning's words fell, Demps Jerry and Matsumoto Wang's brows furrowed, and their faces showed displeasure.
