Chapter Seventy-Six: Paying Players
In the new century, those who were born in 1947 and were born in 1959 have begun to grow old——... ≦,
A novelist in a certain novel, refers to them as the clump generation. It means that they are united, work hard, and are a generation of energetic people.
As they grow old, there is another generation.
In the late '80s, before the early '90s, Japan was a crazy time when college graduates could buy a car after half a year's work.
The three series of Bao-Ma, Ben-Chi E-class, can be said to be seen everywhere on the street. Even the aunt in the countryside drives her own car every day, chatting and laughing with people everywhere.
One-third of the vehicles produced by Rolls-Royce throughout the year are sold to Japan. Japan's Toyo-Tian Crown, Honda's models of the same class, are selling particularly well.
Even, parents tend to give their children a car and a sports car as a graduation gift when they graduate from high school.
It was popular for white-collar workers to go on vacation to Hawaii on weekends.
300,000 yen for a sweater seemed normal at the time.
However, Japan's efforts to awaken were interrupted, and there was a country above them that ruthlessly bleed their blood. Their economy began to decline, and the cars they bought were no longer luxury cars, but economical and practical, and the more fuel-efficient they were, the better.
Of course, this is not a bad thing. Japan has a budget-conscious personality, therefore, their car manufacturers are also better at developing fuel-efficient technologies, so the Japanese car market. After the economic decline, it almost entirely belongs to Japanese manufacturers.
Suzuki, Toyo-Ada, Hon-Da, Maz-Da. and Suba-Lu, these Japanese car brands. The Japanese market is still very moist.
Because the world's economic situation is not very good, their fuel-efficient cars are also selling well in the world. In addition, China has been reformed and opened up, more people can afford to buy cars, and they have a huge emerging market market, so they can say that they are living a very good life.
Of course, most industries are not having a good time. It is precisely because of this that cheap brands such as Youyiku and unscrupulous prints were born.
Then, there were bricks to refute that it was this kind of enterprise that appeared. Let Japan's economy continue to enter the next abyss.
On the other hand, those born in Japan in the seventies and eighties experienced the best times in their youth, and after they reached the prime of life, they experienced the bad times.
So, some of them, because they don't see hope, start to distance themselves from life. Finally, indulge in subcultures such as two-dimensional and otaku culture.
Gradually, they began to become closed. And those old people, looking at the current society, looking at the current next generation, they began to miss the Showa era.
At that time. Life is getting better day by day, and days are getting stronger day by day. At that time, Japan was like a young man who dared to pioneer. And now it's an old man in the twilight of his illness.
Sometimes they gather in the park in twos and threes to talk about the glory of the past with the old guys. They were either together in the shipyard. Build one ocean-going freighter after another, or sweat it out on a construction site. Watch as buildings rise from the ground.
At that time, Japan was running, rich and powerful, and now, Japan is slowly sliding into the abyss.
Lin Yan recently made a nostalgic-themed game with this nostalgic theme. This game doesn't use much operation, it's basically facing the middle-aged and elderly group, a feeling of reminiscing about the past.
As for the young people, it seems that they have little interest in learning about the things of that era.
At the beginning, the old people still had some understanding of the things that the young people liked. After all, as a Japanese animation from children's animation, to youth animation transition Gundam animation.
It has the beauty of the mechanical creations of the old times, and the younger generation likes this, and the old people can still understand it.
After all, at that time, their favorite star was Ken Takakura, who was known for his fortitude, and he was also engaged in machinery-related industries.
In the twenty-first century, however, a qiē has changed. The literature that used to be popular is no longer liked by young people. On the contrary, works led by light novels and smaller and smaller patterns are still popular.
The models that children like to collect are no longer handsome Gundams, but scary little girls with big eyes.
The old people sighed that they didn't know much about what these young people thought.
As a result, the generation gap between the two groups is getting wider and wider. Young people are thrown into the arms of subcultures because they don't have a head, while old people are thrown into the arms of memories because they don't have a head.
The two groups seem to be distinctly separated, and the young people are no longer interested in what the older generation has experienced. It's as if these old people should be abandoned by the times and become the tears of the times.
Lin Yan recently made such a game, in fact, he hopes to master some middle-aged and elderly users.
However, although the reputation of this game is not bad, the market table is not particularly good. After all, middle-aged and elderly people have a group characteristic. It's that they are less receptive to new things.
For example, they can't get something like a game console, and even if they learn it, in fact, with their energy, it is difficult to devote themselves to playing games.
Lin Yan knew that this time he had made a mistake, and it was not a rational act to make a game like zuò that looked like an elderly person.
Of course, there was one thing that actually surprised him, and that was that there were some young players who became loyal fans of the game. And fell in love with the Showa era.
However, it didn't work. Because, the reality of Japan, they feel very powerless. Even with the spirit of fighting bravely in the Showa era, they don't seem to have the ability to change the environment.
As a result, some people who liked this game went to work abroad and began to work in a relatively good environment abroad.
Some went to South Korea, some to China, and some to Southeast Asia.
It should be the decline of Japan. Let the giant enterprises have the motivation to expand outward. So, they can basically find a decent job.
And there are people. After a period of time, I did fall in love with the rapidly developing environment of foreign countries. It was as if they had fulfilled one of their dreams of a motherland in a foreign country.
Lin Yan was also a little embarrassed when he saw their speeches at the forum. After all, these people are living people, and their experiences are living examples.
Some people tell things that look like a story, but they are so powerful.
Lin Yan also had some thoughts about going out for a walk. It's just that the display situation is not allowed. He has countless tasks on his body.
Who let him have a reliable idea and start making a zuò game? Now he serves as the general supervisor of the game no less than double digits.
Although there are not many things that he needs to take care of, ten is not more than a lot.
Lin Yan could only write down all his newly born ideas and seal them in the zài archives. Then, wait for those tasks at hand. When it's all done, it's time to go out for a walk.
Chiba Yuki seems to be a little tired in the past few years. So, she discussed it with Lin Yan. In the future, there will be a chance for the two of them to go outside together.
For some reason, Mayu Riverside also knew about it, so. This pact becomes an agreement of three people.
As the Chiba game wants to avoid further expansion, it will cause some trouble that can bring itself to its own demise. So. In addition to the increase in profits.
The rest of the lift is not particularly large.
Chiba Games is already the boss of the video game industry, so. It doesn't seem like a reality to make more money in the field of video games.
Such a steady stage seems to be just right for leaders to go out for leisure.
Of course, this is not a solid dìng. In fact, during this period of non-external expansion, Chiba Games has a lot of energy to integrate internal resources.
Many of the resources that were previously wasted are now relatively less wasted. Therefore, there has been a relatively good growth in net profit.
Of course, such reforms touch the interests of some people. You know, there are also some people in Chiba Games who use Chiba Games for their own benefit.
For example, Lin Yan knows a lot about business negotiations. That's what the opponent said to Chiba Game.,Anyway, Chiba Game is not yours.,You make a concession to us.,I'll give you benefits.。
The representative of Chiba Games replied like this, it's okay to give in, but the favor should be remembered on me.
Of course, when it comes to real negotiations, it won't be too obvious. But the negotiating sides are indeed such a routine.
Sometimes, Yuki Chiba also knows, but she doesn't immediately punish the entire staff. After all, if the water is clear, there are no fish, and if the internal environment is too tense, then it is not a good thing for Chiba games.
After all, if the environment is too tense, there will be more people who are infighting.
If one person has ten productivity, then ten people may not have fifty productivity. This is because of various reasons, part of which is because of infighting. If we use professional terms to describe the relationship between the number of people and productivity, it is probably a decreasing marginal effect.
In fact, Chiba Yuki Hayashi is not very opposed to infighting. Or rather, infighting is a good thing for Chiba games.
Because, only those who win in the internal fighting can lead the Chiba game to victory in the outer fighting.
After all, if nothing has happened to him, he is still a white lotus, and he will fight against the people outside directly when he comes up. It's no wonder that you don't get played to death.
Therefore, Lin Yan and Chiba Yuki rarely do such a thing. After all, the King James does not necessarily have much ability. It is completely conceivable that a company will enter a period of recession if it is not human.
This is also the reason why there are so many powerful companies and so few century-old stores.
If you want to become a century-old store, you must have a perfect talent selection system. Because, the temporary glory of a company may be created by one person or a group of people.
When this group of people, these people get old, who will carry the enterprise becomes a problem. If the successor is not capable enough, let alone expand the enterprise, it will be difficult to keep the original industry.
Moreover, doing business is another thing of carrying stones up the mountain and sailing against the current, and it can't be stopped, and it will roll down the mountain as soon as it stops, and it will fail when it stops.
Chiba Games has actually had some talents who can be said to be very good over the years, but they lost in the infighting and almost never had a chance to make a comeback.
However, Yuki Chiba is not worried at all. She didn't break the whole game for someone.
Because, in the case of a large base, the emergence of a suitable talent is not an accidental event, but an inevitable event.
In fact, in her eyes, an individual is not a person, but a resource. It makes sense where to put this resource and how to use it.
However, she does not become unhappy because of the loss of a resource.
Of course, Lin Yan may be an exception. However, Lin Yan's ability really can't find a replacement. His ability to be arguably always right looks like a plug-in.
You know, even though Chiba Games did everything possible to prevent the appearance of plug-ins, they still appeared.
Moreover, many people are using it, even if the account is blocked, there is no remorse.
You know, it's very difficult to control the economic system in an online game. In fact, Chiba Games has cooperated with a specialized actuary service company in order to maintain a good financial conditions for online games.
After all, online gaming is mostly about socializing. The role of the financial system is to ensure the scarcity of resources to ensure that paying players have enough sense of superiority.
You must know that free players, in "free online games", are basically a role of accompanying the prince to study, and it is a service provided to paying players.
With their foil, paying players will be willing to spend money.
Even, some of the local Chinese online games that are now appearing in China not only have free players as a service, but even game company insiders to fight with a certain large-scale paying player.
If the paying player recharges a thousand, he will recharge himself by himself a thousand and fifty. Paying players will then continue to top up.
Even, the customer service system is different for free players and paid players.
The construction of free players will not be recorded by customer service at all. And the opinions of the paying players, the team that made the game, will think carefully.
After all, they're going to make money from these paying players.
Even, there was news that a grassroots person was arrested for embezzling public funds to play online games. (To be continued.) )
