Chapter 150: Relentless Rejection

Zhongshan Hayabusa left directly, leaving Li Fangcheng with a shocked face.

Refused?

Of course he knew what such a resolute departure meant!

You don't even need to discuss, you just refuse!

This was something that was completely unexpected!!

Sega technology?

Li Fangcheng looked at the papers scattered on the table,

"The chip project, with a loss of $20 million. ”

"The sound card project, a loss of $8 million. ”

"Host accessories, loss of $13 million"

β€œ.......”

With Hayakuo Nakayama's reports one by one, the hearts of all the people in the audience couldn't help but tighten!

Massive deficits!!

This is Sega's loss on the project, and every additional loss means that each third party that serves the console arcade to make games must also have a corresponding deficit of one or even several third-party companies!

The whole hall was silent at the moment.

More than 100 million loss-making projects, how terrible!

The first announcement of profitable projects is to reassure everyone and tell everyone how strong Sega's strength is, and then announce the loss-making projects to tell everyone what the problems faced by Sega are.

I finished reading the project. The atmosphere of the entire hall has become noticeably oppressive.

After all, this is not a simple report, but also involves a series of Sega plans for the coming year.

Among the announced projects, many of them are downstream manufacturers of third-party companies, and they are all present, Li Fangcheng obviously saw that there were two manufacturers in the same row, with an earthy face!

Once it is declared a loss

It's the turn of the investment situation of third-party companies, third-party companies, not simply make games for Sega, in terms of Sega's current situation in the console field is not as good as Nintendo, to collect a group of third parties, it is necessary to give a lot of preferential conditions, such as appropriate investment.

This part of the investment includes the purchase of copyrights, the purchase of games, financial assistance, channel distribution, and so on.

Of course, on SMS, there are no famous masterpieces, but there are more than 100 games large and small, and there are still some good games, such as, Mickey Mouse series, hard-core blood series, etc., transplanted a lot of arcade games, as well as games developed by buying Disney and Warner copyrights, and even games like China Daxian that tarnished Xianxia's works, and these, a large part of which is done by Sega itself, and some of which are subcontracted to third-party companies to do, of course, the corresponding reward is that Sega will get a share of the sales profits。

"The last item is the investment of a third-party company, GFD, which invested $30 million and lost $1.2 million. Nakayama Hayao's voice no longer has any feelings at the moment, and the anger in his heart has reached the point of numbness.

The first is the deficit! The company invested in is still a second party!

GDF is the company of the Ishiguro family!

Tang Zekaiyan heard the deficit of the Ishiguro family at this moment, although he couldn't show it, but his heart was full of joy!

Let it be suppressed by the Ishiguro family, but now the Ishiguro family itself has not done much well, and it is also a second party, don't look at the loss of 200,000 US dollars, a loss is a loss, and a deficit is a deficit, which means that it is not doing well!

It can be said that out of Tang Ze Kaiyan, even the old man of Tang Ze Dashan, his eyes couldn't help but flash a trace of happiness!

It's a pity that sitting in the fifth row, I can't see the face of the Ishiguro family, otherwise the entire Tang Ze family would be overjoyed at this moment.

"QC company, invested $20 million, lost $1.45 million. ”

"KFJ invested $8 million and lost $120,000. ”

"LP invested $7 million and lost $330,000. ”

β€œ......”

It's a deficit again!

Now even the calmest person knows that something is going to happen!

No one thought that such a situation would arise!

Sega's third parties are all in deficit!

The high hopes of SMS failed, and now, with a lot of effort, even Sega's development team will have technical exchanges with various second parties from time to time, but the slap in the face is still so ruthless!

In fact, it is no wonder that the direct sales of 4 million sets of SMS will definitely bring huge variables to the sales of games. Intuitively speaking, there are fewer people playing, and the market for game cartridges is correspondingly smaller, and there are fewer sales.

"TKK, invested $1.2 million, lost $200,000. ”

"QZ invested $1 million, lost, $1 million!"

With the announcement of Hayakuo Nakayama's last company, he glanced up at everyone, and everyone present knew that next, there would be a big earthquake!

This is the wrath of Sega!

There weren't many third parties in Sega, and now every one of them is a loss!!

Piecemeal, close to $30 million in losses!

Everyone knows that the monstrous anger is about to bombard!

After Hayao Nakayama finished talking about the last QZ company, that is, the Karasawa family, the entire hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop on the ground.

Even the sound of breathing was gone, and there was a dead silence.

Tang Ze Dashan closed his eyes at this moment, he knew that the next thing was the sentence of his QZ!

Time, second by second, no one knows how long it has been, only that just before Hayato Nakayama was about to speak, he glanced down at the report, and then his expression instantly became stunned, and it lasted for a few seconds before returning to normal!

What's going on? Why is there a black letter suddenly appearing in this last item?

I saw the last item, with a line of black data written on it, and the red color throughout the article even made Hayao Nakayama numb, so that after just reading the QZ company, he didn't see this position for a while.

QZ partner company: Miracle Times Technology Co., Ltd., "Let's Find Differences" sold 8,300 units, "Happy Lianliankan" sold 8,200 units, Sega revenue of about 220 million US dollars, "Family Members" sold 20 million units, QZ company revenue of 240 million US dollars.

This simple line of words directly made Hayabusa's scalp tingle!

Arcade games, sold in two forms, as I said before, one is sold as a whole machine, in this era, arcade machines are extremely expensive, the average price of a machine is 10,000 US dollars!

Even if you only replace the substrate, even if it is the integrated board inside, it will cost more than $8,000 for a set!

At that time, the Japanese were the world's largest economic powers, so one can imagine why there was almost no genuine arcade machine in China at that time.

In China, in the 80s, 1 yuan to play 1 game, that is simply a luxury! Even if you play a game for 1 yuan, it will take 60,000 yuan to pay back! Who dares to enter a genuine arcade machine?

A game console takes an average of 5 minutes a game, 15 hours a day without stopping, and it takes at least 300 days to pay back!

And arcade machines in this era,It's not a card type.,It's all a substrate.,A game corresponds to a substrate.,Once you buy it back, no one cares.,It's a blood loss!So buying arcade games,It's something that needs to be carefully considered!

And domestic arcade machines, don't even think about it, almost 99.99% are pirated.

Therefore, the arcade machine did not seem to find fault and Lianliankan only bought a few thousand sets of a game, but this directly entered Sega with a list of more than 200 million US dollars!

In particular, there is another model that has sold more than 20 million units! Not 2 million, not 10 million, but directly towards the 20 million units of the masterpiece! How terrible is this!

What level of game is this?

He doesn't need to think about it anymore, classic!

It's only been a long time, and the two arcade games have only been a little over 2 months from debugging to being put on the market, but they have created a revenue of 220 million!

And the game that was rejected at the beginning sold 20 million!!

And it's a game that was rejected by Sega!

Hayabusa Nakayama felt a slight pain in his chest.

With a complicated face, he glanced at the location of the QZ company and the location of the Miracle Era, this scene made the Ishiguro Daichi, whose face had always been ugly, look clear at the front, and at this moment Ishiguro Daichi couldn't help but look hideous!

QZ Company! Tang Ze Family! Wait! We are not profitable, and you are also losing money.

In the end, Hayao Nakayama slowly said in the eyes of everyone: "The last item, from QZ's partner Miracle Times, the arcade games "Let's Find Differences" and "Happy Lianliankan" sold 8,300 and 8,200 sets respectively, Sega earned about 220 million US dollars, the video game "Family Members" sold 20 million units, QZ earned 240 million US dollars, and the profit was ......" Hayao Nakayama glanced at the audience stunned, and finished the last number with great satisfaction:" $40 million!"

"Bless you, Miracle Times, you will be officially invited by Sega to become a third-party company of Sega!" said Hayao Nakayama with a gentle smile at the moment.

And as soon as this sentence came out, the audience was in an uproar!!

"How is that possible!!"

"This can't be!!"

"There must be something wrong!"

"It's... It's incredible!"

"I absolutely don't believe it's true!"

In the audience, no one was mentally calm, why??

Why is everyone losing money, but what miracle is you, and what era company has helped Sega create such a large amount of income?

Why should a company that is not even a third party make such a contribution!!

And Ishiguro Daichi and Tegoshi Yuta and the others are even the great sages shouting impossible words, they can't believe such a data!

There was an uproar that told everyone what an incredible thing was happening here!

"Haha, hahahahahaha!!"

Suddenly, a burst of laughter came into everyone's ears, and everyone turned their eyes to the source of the sound, Tang Zekaiyan!

"It's ridiculous, three times and twice to prevent my QZ company from making games, look at you, what games have you made? In the end, all of them are losses, not even QZ's partners, we have created the best results of a third-party company in the history of Sega! What about you? Create a deficit! Sega is harmed because of a group of people like you who can only intrigue but have no ability! Miracle era, worthy of miracle age, you are miracles! Hahahahaha!!" Tang Zekaiyan had already unloaded all his burdens at this moment and laughed loudly.

first gave a thumbs up to Li Fangcheng and the others, and then looked at the position of the Ishiguro family and the others.

And after saying this, everyone present changed their faces for a while!

Negative emotions such as embarrassment, shame, shame, anger, etc., all come to the faces of various third parties.
