Chapter 80: More Possibilities
Many people think that video games are meaningless, and Hayashi agrees with them at some point. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Because, video games, indeed, if not there's such a thing, there's nothing wrong with that.
However, when you think about it this way, most of the world's things are meaningless.
For example, since people don't have no feet and can't walk, why do you want to get a car?
All kinds of machinery basically belong to this category, since people are not unable to do it, then, what do you want these troublesome and cumbersome machines to do.
In fact, man itself is a very versatile machine, probably, this machine does not look particularly good, maybe, this machine is very inefficient in many cases.
However, it is one of the few machines that can do almost anything.
It's like the golden age of science fiction, the kind of housekeeping robot that can do anything. Although, in the real world, housework robots are often divided into one function after another, which is implemented separately.
For example, a robot vacuum cleaner is a plate that moves on its own on the ground. For example, a washing machine is a machine that washes clothes.
They don't look much like humans, because they have to do it in order to do something, to do something better.
Otherwise, the efficiency will be too low.
In fact, the essence of scientific and technological development is to liberate the productive forces.
However, some people say that there is no problem with the need to liberate the productive forces. Some of them overlap with those who say video games are useless.
After all, the role of video games is to consume the time that people save.
In fact, with the tremendous development of modern productive forces, people no longer need to work as hard as before.
At least, if you don't work so hard, you won't starve to death.
As a result, people have more time to do some recreational activities. Video games are one of those entertainments.
In addition to this kind of entertainment, people sometimes engage in other recreational activities. For example, watching TV, watching movies, watching entertainment programs. These are all types of recreational activities.
If people lack recreational activities, will they not be able to live, no. But will there be a problem, yes.
Entertainment, in a sense, is a way to relax one's body and mind. Of course, there are some forms of entertainment that are addictive.
After all, if a game isn't fun, no one will choose to play it.
Therefore, the addictive nature of the game is natural and does not need to be hidden. Of course, some people don't think it's a very good feeling. I think it's the game manufacturers that are cheating themselves. It cannot be denied that this situation exists, but when the game manufacturer does not do anything illegal, if a person invests a large amount of unreasonable money in the game, then please find the reason for this person.
Of course, the improvement of the law requires a process, and sometimes, some people or organizations are willing to take advantage of this lag to do things.
Of course, not many people can do this, after all, it requires not only audacity, but also a lot of information that is not publicly available.
For example, a city's vehicles need to be restricted, but the TV news keeps saying that there will be no license restrictions.
At this time, if you have 10 million in your hand, you will choose what to do. Do you buy 300 loaves of bread and hang them for photos, or do nothing.
If someone chooses the former, then, except for a very few possibilities, he is indeed very bold and dares to make judgments, otherwise, he has information that most people do not grasp.
And after the vehicle is really limited, he can make a lot of money. Originally, more than 30,000 and 50,000 pieces of bread could be sold for 100,000 yuan when he changed hands.
It's not the money that sells bread, after all, not many people will open bread, and what they buy is not that license.
If, at this time, someone interviews this person, he will definitely not say that he has inside information, he will definitely say that he is bold and careful, and he just wants to fight.
In fact, everyone knows what is going on.
In fact, in the video game industry, there are quite a few people who speculate.
For example, when Chiba Games first released the red and white machine, it did not license many game companies.
Therefore, when many manufacturers see that a random game on the red and white machine can sell more than one million, they go crazy.
They'll find ways to make games that they can sell on red and white machines.
However, they can't get the license of Chiba Games, so what to do. They found a partner who took pictures.
At the beginning, some companies, such as Hardison, used this method to make a lot of money by not reselling games themselves, and just by virtue of the resale of games.
Therefore, Hudson at that time was also called 9,000 years old by people in the industry. After all, 9,000 years old means that they are under one person, above ten thousand?
Later, Chiba Games let go of the license little by little, and Hudson's days were not so moisturizing.
Of course, you can still make money. After all, at that time, people's desire for new games was very high.
It wasn't until Chiba Games finally established the routine of releasing new games every Friday that this desire became normal little by little.
It's not like that kind of abnormal time, a game can easily sell millions.
At this time, the quality of a game is positively correlated with the sales of a game.
After all, there are enough games, and it's not like there's no time for everyone to play them. Everyone already has their own criteria for judging whether the game is good or bad.
At this time, it actually means that the industry has really begun to mature, which means that the industry really has professional players.
There is a good chance that these early professional gamers will become industry insiders in the video game industry. Because they have a lot of experience in games, even if they don't make video games, they can use their experience to find their place in the field of magazines and other media.
In fact, if you look carefully, you will find that many people in this industry have entered the industry in this way.
In fact, if an industry joins earlier, the threshold of this industry is not very high.
This and joining the industry as a whole when it matures, it's just two worlds. The original employee of Chiba Games, which is now the veteran of Chiba Games.
Most of them are actually not highly educated students. Many of them, just ordinary ordinary people, may have entered the video game industry by chance, or they may have done nothing.
They didn't even know much about what video games were at first, but most of them eventually fell in love with the industry.
Most of them, at some point, really found out that making video games was so good.
Although their strength may not be particularly high, because they entered the industry early, they have slowly become veterans of this industry.
Some of them are more studious and may learn and accept new knowledge, while those who are not particularly studious.
Basically, it's such a state, eating and waiting to die.
Anyway, the whole industry is booming, and as long as they are still in the industry, with their qualifications, they can harvest a lot of money.
Of course, Chiba Games doesn't like this situation, and the reason why I don't like it is very simple. It's because of these people that it can bring about a bad atmosphere in the video game industry.
To put it mildly, not to mention that the atmosphere of the entire industry has been damaged, at least, the atmosphere of Chiba games will be damaged.
Corporate culture is something that cannot be seen or touched, but why so many people care so much about it is because it is indeed very important.
If there is a problem with the culture of an enterprise, in fact, the entire enterprise will definitely not be able to do it for a long time.
Excellent companies may have their own excellent points, but poor companies often have the same differences.
For example, the airspace is paid, for example, the raw materials are purchased at a high price, for example, nepotism, and the acquaintance is unknown.
In fact, sometimes I think that my family is reliable, but in fact, it is not necessarily.
Although, in the eyes of the big boss, we are all relatives, and the company is mine and yours, but in the eyes of small employees, it may not be like this.
Although we are relatives, the distance between us is not the same. You said that the company belongs to our whole family, and I want to sell the company, at least my part for money, will you agree? You won't.
Therefore, for my own benefit, there is nothing wrong with damaging the interests of the company a little. At least, in their own Logitech opinion, there is no problem.
Because of the presence of Chiba Yuki and Hayashi Hiko, Chiba Games has formulated detailed rules and regulations to avoid this situation.
Chiba Games' corporate culture is actually very positive. For the veterans, although the Chiba game does not have too special treatment, it is also not badly treated.
After all, these patriarchs, many times, don't mean themselves.
Rather, there are many employees who look at them as an example.
Now, how to treat these veterans, those employees who look at them, will think that the company will do this to themselves in the future.
In fact, it is necessary to pay a lot of redundant costs to ensure the welfare of employees in this way.
However, there is no way around it.
Because, after all, Chiba Games is a traditional Japanese company.
It is impossible to say that some companies in certain countries basically do not have a concept of the future of their employees.
Even, as long as they are interns, once an employee's salary is high enough, they will try to find a way to get rid of the employee.
Logically speaking, such an enterprise actually has little future.
However, because those businesses are located, it may be that the economy is too good, it may be that there are too many people.
So, even if they do, there is no problem in the slightest, and even many people approve of their behavior.
It is believed that only in this way can we maintain the vitality of an enterprise and make an enterprise have the motivation to move forward.
Of course, these companies generally have another feature, which is more interesting.
That is, they also like to say that they have a corporate culture, and their corporate culture is more radical than the corporate culture of Chiba Games.
They may even say that they hope that every employee will not work for money, work hard, and learn new knowledge.
Of course, what they say is very good, but, in reality, it is very interesting. They will still fire those who are capable, but want high wages.
Therefore, these enterprises, generally newcomers are like leeks, stubble after stubble.
Even, this month's employees don't know the employees who joined the company six months ago.
An enterprise is in such a state, in fact, it is not a good thing for this enterprise, and it is not conducive to long-term development.
After all, it takes at least a month for an employee to go from new to proficient, and if the personnel are replaced too quickly, in fact, many people will use the experience to train personnel.
Of course, for these companies, they still don't care, because they don't want to go too far in the first place.
Especially those Internet companies, their costs should not be too low, just as long as there are people and computers, the rest of the cost may be rent.
Therefore, the Internet industry has become an industry where entrepreneurs are long, and at the same time, it has also become an industry where scammers are rampant.
In such a red sea of Internet entrepreneurship, in fact, only a very small part of them can really get ahead.
The rest is just to follow the east wind of the industry and eat with a mouthful of food.
Chiba Games' own venture capital company, in fact, many of the people who invest are the type of scammers. The reason why Chiba Games invests in such a company is not because they invest indiscriminately without investigation.
It's that in these messy companies, there will really come out.
It's incredible, you know.
The investment company of Chiba Games, although it has been investigating for a long time, has not figured out the specific principle behind this thing.
After thinking about it, I can only say that as long as the sample is large enough, no matter how small the probability is, there will be a day when it will be realized.
Of course, Chiba Game Venture Capital does not mean that whoever asks for investment invests invests.
It is still necessary to identify, although the standard is wide, but it does not mean that there is no standard.
In this way, under Chiba Game Ventures, some excellent companies have also appeared. Although Chiba Games is very unacceptable to some of them, it has not interfered with their operations.
For Chiba Games, what they want to see is more possibilities. (To be continued.) )
