The audience was silent, and the old man's hand, flattening the paper, as if announcing a sentence, slowly read.

"This year, in the first half of the year, Sega launched strategic cooperation with a number of companies, and obtained income from various prices, the highest one, worth 800 million US dollars! This is the pride of Sega!" Hayao Nakayama bowed slightly: "At the same time, I am also pleased with the investment vision of these companies." ”

I didn't say what the cooperation was, but everyone also tacitly knew that as long as it was earned, it was good!

"Sega, in addition to the largest revenue, there is also a largest loss, in the European market development, slightly unsatisfactory, the current investment of 200 million US dollars has been basically exhausted, but Sega will continue to maintain a state of development in the European market, and even at present, we have won a part, which is a few steps ahead of Nintendo! Yes, it is also the pride of Sega!" Hayao Nakayama said in a confident tone.

"Once the European market is successfully won, it will enter a new stage for Sega and for all shareholders. ”

"The second big order, is Sega's arcade, arcade market, we are undoubtedly the leader of the entire industry, but also the world's first, the current global arcade share, we occupy more than 80% of the entire market, and revenue, this year's largest order from the United States, 550 million US dollars of orders, in the field of arcades, no one can match!" Zhongshan Hayabusa proudly expounded a fact.

However, as he spoke, his eyes once again looked at the position of the Age of Miracles.

Only he knows that in addition to the 550 million, there is also a full 150 million US dollars, which was suddenly ordered in the last month, which is difficult for him not to doubt, the fundamental reason is for those two games "Happy Lianliankan" and "Everyone Come to Find Differences". Judging from the report, if it is really a miracle era, it is simply an uninteresting thing, and it is incredible, Hayakuo Nakayama was shocked!!

Once it is true, then a new company, just in the arcade field, will bring Sega a list of 150 million US dollars, and this is only the largest order in this month, the small list has not been reported, it is conceivable that the value of this new company, at this moment, even Hayabusa Nakayama is a little hesitant.

And among the people present, the companies that make arcade games are also in high spirits, which is good news, arcade sales are good, a large part of the credit is the game, on the other hand, arcade sales are high, these companies make more money, basically do not face the danger of deficit.

However, everyone was listening to the lecture, and Hayabusa Nakayama suppressed his inner hesitation and continued to read: "Third, it is the business machine, our business machine, which has blossomed in all walks of life, and at present, it has far surpassed Nintendo! We are the absolute first! There are many large and small lists, and the largest list is an order of 500 million US dollars, which comes from Panasonic. ”

"Our business jet advantage ......," Hayabusa Nakayama said by the way, telling everyone about the significance of business jets to Sega.

After listening to everyone present word for word, Li Fangcheng, like everyone else, pricked up their ears.

The results of a year's efforts are announced step by step today.

When everything was finished, suddenly, Li Fangcheng found that the third item had been finished, but in the arcade just now, there was no mention of "Everyone Come to Find Differences", nor did it mention "Happy Lianliankan"!

This discovery made Li Fangcheng frown, is these two games not good enough? impossible, but it was not mentioned, is it because the report does not talk about specific projects?

Pressing to endure the anxiety in his heart, Li Fangcheng looked at the others, but fortunately, they hadn't said anything yet.

Of course, what Li Fangcheng didn't know was that the numbers in Zhongshan Hayao's mouth had completely shocked them!

Billions of dollars!

And just a project.

If it is placed in Huaxia, it can already kill any company in the country!

This is for them whose cognitive circles are limited to those who are in the country.

It's tantamount to breaking open a patio!

Sitting in a well and watching the sky, after all, it is too narrow-minded!

Except for Ping Xiangtong, everyone's eyes widened!

Three pieces of good news in a row, which is tantamount to a shot in the arm, everyone's expressions are relaxed, only some old people know that this is not the most critical part, the real highlight is still to come!

Sure enough.

Hayakuo Nakayama's face became serious: "Fourth, the family game console, the console battlefield." ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces instantly became heavy again.

The SEGA Master System, abbreviated as SMS, is also known as the Sega Master System.

Sega's fourth-generation home game console, an 8-bit home game console launched in Japan in 1985, in order to compete with Nintendo, so its performance far surpassed Nintendo's FC red and white machine, priced at $199 a piece.

But this year's SMS has been selling badly since it was logged in North America for a year, and nothing else, just because of the emergence of Super Mario, which has swept the whole of North America!

Hayabusa Nakayama looked down and couldn't help but pause.

A solemn breath converged rapidly with Nakayama Hayao's face.

Deficit!

Estimated sales were 8 million units, but the final sales were less than 4 million units, and one unit was $199.

That is, a full four million units were unsold!

$800 million!!

A huge deficit!

It's like a hammer hitting Sega's body!

Sega takes the route of high-end boutiques, and the host has always been the representative of Sega's technological crystallization.

But such a high-end boutique route is not without a price, and it is equivalent to a much more expensive price than FC!

Hayabusa Nakayama was as if he had been hit by a sullen fist, and he was silent.

The rest of the audience was even more nervous at the moment.

"On the console, the deficit, the loss of 800 million US dollars!" said Hayao Nakayama in a flat tone: "We still need to work harder, it doesn't matter if we fail, Sega will always compete with Nintendo for this market to the end, and we will not waver in this." ”

"Our stock has risen above the peak of the stock market last year, and countless people have confidence in us, and we will have more confidence in ourselves! The plan for the coming year, I hope that all the companies present can focus more on the console field, which is the core focus of our next year! In the coming year, we will overturn Nintendo!" Hayao Nakayama's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was a little round at the moment.

It's not that he doesn't understand, and it's not that he doesn't know the reason, Sega's console is much stronger than FC in terms of performance, and it stands to reason that sales should be even better.

But! Actually, it's not as good as it could be!

What is the root cause?

Very simple!

Famous game works!

On the current Sega game console, there is no famous masterpiece!

Sega's SMS, many games are transplanted arcade games, but no matter how well the arcade games are restored, they are nothing more than fried cold rice.

And what does Nintendo have now?

When SMS was released, it was formerly known as the Sega Mark III, which was released on October 20, 1985, which was Sega's third generation of game consoles.

In other areas, it was redesigned, but it was really only an exterior change, and the internal structure was barely adjusted, and this year, 1987, it was redesigned with a better sound chip, gamepad buttons, and 3D glasses!

Yes, that's right, 3D technology has been used in the Japanese video game industry since 1987!

Both Sega and Nintendo have already launched hardware such as 3D headsets in 1987.

And SMS is the upgraded version of Sega Mark III, which has become Sega's fourth-generation game console, but Sega's hardware upgrade has not brought enough sales as Hayato Nakayama predicted, and there are fundamental reasons, just last year, "Super Mario 2: The Lost Level" was officially released in Japan on June 3, and directly threw Sega to 108,000 miles with sales of 2.5 million units, which first gave Sega a blow to the head.

Super Mario 2 is undoubtedly classic, dragging Super Mario Bros. really together on the screen of the game, there used to be only one plumber, and now there is a white cuckold Mario brother Luigi also officially debuted, you can play a two-player game, 1P player is Mario, after Mario failed to die, it was not a new start, but a 2P player Luigi started to play.

There are many elements that have been retained since then, such as the elements of mushrooms, the setting of pipes that can jump levels, and so on.

It can be said that the first generation of Super Mario was the foundation, then the second generation of Super Mario became a classic.

In the same year, before the release of Super Mario, Nintendo's other masterpiece is Enix, one of the Nintendo Five Tigers, developed a classic masterpiece, a new type of RPG game "Dragon Quest", an eternal classic in Japan!

Its status in the future, even surpassing Super Mario, without him, because of this game, really laid the root of the game that is different from other countries in Japan, the RPG game kingdom!

RPG, is a role-playing game, although the first generation of Dragon Quest plot is very cliché, not even much different from Super Mario, it is the player who plays the legendary hero "Lot" The bloodline heir, defeating the dragon king who tried to control the world, and rescued the captured princess by the way.

But his appearance let the world know that the original game can still be played like this.

And what about Sega? Sega, since the launch of the SG-1000 in 1983, what are some classic masterpieces?

No!

Therefore, in the face of the attack of the two masterpieces before and after, Sega's SMS used a game that relied solely on arcade porting, and no one cared about it.

No matter how high the performance is, a game that doesn't hold up is still a failure in the true sense of the word!

Sega's third-party lineup is not comparable to Nintendo's third-party lineup!

Hayao Nakayama has already vaguely begun to perceive this, so he wants to rectify the third-party company, and the first one to open the knife is the QZ company of the Tang Ze family, a third-party company that does not develop games!

After calming down the irritability in his heart a little, Hayabusa Nakayama looked at the red deficit in his eyes and slowly read it out.
