Chapter Twenty-Seven: Methods [Subscription Requested!
Toshiba's executive director, Mr. Eiji Numa, sat across from Takahashi and shook his head as he listened to Takahashi's condition. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Mr. Takahashi, it's not that we, Toshiba, are unwilling to agree to your conditions, but that your request violates the treaty of the Paris Coordinating Committee. We also wanted to sell, but ......" Toshiba executive director Eiji Arinuma looked helpless.
Takahashi was in high spirits, and he said with a smile on his face, "Director Eiji, I believe that your society must have a way, right?" As...... We will make one more game for the joint host, and all the profits from this game will go to your company?"
"Boom. Arinuma swallowed.
Wanhu is now a bellwether in the home game console market, and several of its games have sold more than one million in the local market. And the platform to which it is attached, the red and white machine itself, has only sold more than 10 million in the whole book.
In other words, one out of ten users who buy red and white machines has purchased a game for 10,000 households.
And if you count the multiple games with sales of more than one million in 10,000 households separately, because of the different types of games, even 10,000 players can cover all the players of the red and white machine.
This is a very terrifying existence, and it is also very exciting.
The reason why Hudson strongly asked to pull Wanhu into the third party of the joint console is because of Wanhu's "magic" in the game.
The famous player Akagi Goken once said, "Whoever masters the game of Wanhu will dominate the home console market." ”
It's a pity that although Wanhu has the intention of launching a game on the joint console, the conditions are a bit harsh. Although you don't need money, you often need technology more than money.
Unlike other narrow names, Toshiba was one of the first countries to enter Chinese mainland. The more I know about China, the more I fear, of course, because China doesn't seem to be well adapted to the capitalist free market, and Toshiba is also taking in super-profits in China.
Don't think that China's technology is backward.
No, it's not.
Because it is somewhat derailed from the international scientific research environment, it can be said that China itself is a world, and China has developed many technologies with its own characteristics under the situation of "isolated islands".
And after they opened the country, they didn't treat their unique technology as a good thing, and they didn't have patents or anything.
As one of the first companies to enter China, Toshiba has earned much more in China than it has invested.
The reason why Eiji Arinuma was sent to negotiate with Takahashi was also because he knew China better than anyone else. In the battle to enter the Chinese market, it has achieved excellent results and earned excess profits for Toshiba.
Takahashi's desire is completely understandable to Eiji Arinuma, and although he also wants to sell the technology to Manhe, it is difficult.
Although he is very developed in the eyes of outsiders, as a high-level member of the group, Eiji Arinuma understands that although he is developed, he is not free, and if it harms the interests of the United States.
Like those pro-China prime ministers and ministers, it will not take a few days for the scandal of corruption and bribery to be ruined, or they will be directly assassinated.
"Well, it's ...... like this," Takahashi whispered as he walked over to Arinuma Eiji, moved over a stool, and whispered.
"Is that all right?" asked Eiji Arinuma.
"Of course. Takahashi blinked, "Wanhu doesn't want partners to make difficult choices, mutual benefit and win-win is the king." ”
Eiji Arinuma calculated the "backward production line" of 10,000 households proposed by Takahashi, because Toshiba's expatriate engineers were diligent and studious, and the "textbooks" were lost at the assembly site. Everything happened unnoticed, without even violating the physical export of Batumi, it seems, as if, this approach worked......
"Okay, I'll arrange it!" Eiji Arinuma, who is the executive director of Toshiba, has become much more courageous because of his recent excellent results.
Just as he did his homework on Takahashi, Takahashi did his homework on him.
Regarding what people who are happy to do should do, Takahashi smiled on his face.
――――――
While Wanhu contacted the co-host, Sega on the other side did not forget to negotiate with Wanhu.
After some discussion, Sega gave up the idea of selling 10,000 games on this generation of eight-bit console SMS, and the only game with the word "10,000 households" was the SMS version of "Tetris" produced by Sega authorized by 10,000 households.
Due to various reasons, Wanhu's "Space Warrior" is increasingly in need of more powerful functions and storage space.
Coupled with the relationship that is expected to land on the joint console, Manho's "Space Warrior" is expected to land on Sega's Sega-Genesis console. Both are sixteen-bit hosts.
The SG host, which is scheduled to be the first platform, already has the intention of attacking the North American market as soon as possible.
After the Atari collapse in 1983, video games gradually withdrew from the mainstream in the United States and fell silent. And the "everyone will buy" computer provides a new platform for the development of computer games.
However, because computers are too expensive, the cheapest ones cost about $1,000, and there are no special display chips. So, its expensive price and poor graphics have limited the development of computer games.
Although the arcade game is developing relatively well, it ...... The game is not updated at a fast pace. Unlike the arcade games of later generations, the arcade machines in the United States seem to be ancient games of the last century.
He is replacing Americans as the number one promoter of video games.
Last year, Nintendo's red and white machine entered the U.S. market and was renamed Nintendo Entertainment System, that is, NES, with its cheap price, and excellent game content, under the leadership of business wizard Minoru Arakawa, Nintendo soon opened up the market in the United States.
Although Shigeru Miyamoto himself is in Yumoto's native country and is just a good game designer, because "Super Mario Bros." debuted on the American version of the NES, he directly skipped those "pre-release" works.
This work, which is bundled with the NES, is like a black ship incident without a video game market, which suddenly opened the door of the hearts of Americans who were hurt by Atari and closed their hearts.
American players, who were still in the previous era of the game concept, forcibly pulled to this generation, and the Americans directly put the creator of the magical game "Super Mario Bros." - Shigeru Miyamoto on the altar.
In their view, Shigeru Miyamoto simply redefined video games.
Of course, at the same time, Wanhu's game also spread in the United States as the first game. While not as shocking as Super Mario Bros., it has also recruited a group of fans who love role-playing games.
However, at that time, Wanhu had not been fired from a third party by Nintendo, and it would be difficult to see Wanhu's games on Nintendo's game consoles in the future......
And this time, Sega SG, which is a generation ahead of the red and white machine, wants to enter the U.S. market, so it found 10,000 households that Nintendo has made outstanding contributions to entering the U.S. market to join its own camp.
