Chapter 544 - Using GB to Retire

What the? 40 million units before and after, four sales, all sold out in one day? When Boss Jia finished solving the problem of the 70nm lithography machine and returned to Daqian, he received this extremely shocking news.

At this time, it is already March 25th, and it has been a month since the launch of the Poke Electronic Monster machine, which has been continuously increasing production capacity in the past month, and has now increased to the extent that the daily output has reached 2 million units, and a total of 40 million machines have been produced overtime in a month.

These 40 million machines were sent to all over the world, but they were all sold out in a day, and the whole world seemed to be in a state of dissatisfaction, no matter how many machines were put into it, none of them could meet their needs.

You must know that in the rice market alone, Daqian has invested 50 million machines one after another, but all of them are gone, and the speed at which the machines disappear is extremely amazing. And the employees of Daqian Puzzle are about to collapse, although the overtime pay is very cool, but if it goes on like this, people really can't bear it!

Of course, the money is also very cool.

By the way, if you count the machines that were released before, the global sales of Pokemon have now exceeded 100 million units.

The first to receive this news was Nintendo, because Nintendo and Daqian have the best relationship, so after Yamauchi Pu received the news of the group's hot sale of pocket electronic pet machines, he couldn't help but call Boss Jia and ask, ask what the total sales are, and then he was completely shocked by the data of 100 million units.

"Jia Jun, you're not kidding me!" Yamauchi couldn't help but ask.

"Yamauchi-senpai, do you think I can deceive you?" Boss Jia said helplessly, "I can't wait for this number to come down now, you don't know how busy my factory is now, even I am about to become a worker on the production line." ”

"Huh!" Yamauchi Pu Gan laughed, and then hung up the phone directly, this Jia Yapeng is really too embarrassed.

Of course, Yamauchi Pu would not listen to Boss Jia's words, he immediately summoned the elites of his company and asked them to collect relevant information and calculate accurate figures.

As a result, the number handed over by this group of elites was 120 million units, which was 20 million units higher than the number provided by Boss Jia, which completely stunned Yamauchi Pu.

"How did this guy do that? Our BG has only sold 60 million units so far, and this thing has sold twice as many as us. Yamauchi Pu couldn't help but ask his henchman Satoshi Iwata.

"The main thing is that the price is too cheap, and the marketing methods are too clever!" Iwata Satoshi understood very well what the answer Yamauchi wanted to hear, so he hurriedly said, "The $9 machine is 120 of our GB, and of course such a machine is easy to sell." So we shouldn't count sales, we should count sales, in this way, the Pocket Electronic Monster machine is still 10 times different from our GB! ”

Satoshi Iwata is able to speak, and the expression of Pu Yamauchi who listened to it instantly looked a lot better, and then he continued to say, "This is mainly based on excellent marketing hype, and I have to admit that it was a genius who designed this set of marketing plans!" ”

"First through the Pokemon's exquisite side animation, and then the Pokemon electronic pet machine has become a machine that seems to have really crossed over from the animation world to become a Pokemon, so that players can believe that it is really a Pokemon inside!"

"Secondly, through the linkage between animation and reality, and then create huge Pokemon balloons in reality, and by the way, spend money to buy the media to promote the momentum, this series of publicity skills is really powerful, people have to say admiration!"

"Yes, the publicity of this pocket electronic pet machine is too powerful, and the price is too cheap!" Yamauchi nodded, feeling a lot better.

Well, it's definitely not your own GB that can't work, it's a loss in the propaganda strategy and price.

"Iwata-kun, you have to find a way to figure out the identity of Daqian's marketing planner, and then contact him, we must get this marketing ghost into our hands, I think with his help, our GB sales can be more than doubled, reaching a total of 120 million units!" Yamauchi said excitedly.

"Yes!" Satoshi Iwata immediately agreed, and then said with a smile, "President, if sales are doubled, it should be 130 million units!" ”

"What? 130 million units? Yamauchi was stunned for a moment, and then immediately reacted, "Are you saying that the total sales of our GB have increased by another 5 million units?" ”

"Yes!"

"How is this possible...... How is this possible!! Yamauchi was stunned, you know, it's been 6 years since GB was launched.

It took Nintendo 6 years to sell 60 million GB units, the world's unbeatable number.

Yamauchi remembers that the last time he saw the sales figures was at the end of the year, and it was only a month away.

That is to say, in a month's time, the sales of GB actually increased by 5 million, which is equivalent to 112 of the total sales in 6 years, how is this possible.

You know, in the whole 93 years, the sales of GB were only 8 million units, of which 4 million units were still due to the increase in sales of Pokemon releases, which means that if there were no Pokemon, the sales of last year were only 4 million units.

As a result, it has now exceeded in a month.

"Why, this is also the credit of Pokemon!" Yamauchi Pu quickly reacted, there is nothing big in the game circle for a while, the biggest thing is the hot sale of pocket electronic pet machines, and it seems that this is the only one that can drive GB sales.

"President Akiaki, after I found that sales were increasing, I conducted a questionnaire survey on 1,000 customers who purchased GB, and it turned out that 936 of them bought our GB because they had purchased a Pocket Electronic Pet Machine and had a strong interest in the Pokemon game itself." Satoshi Iwata.

"According to what you say, 93.6% of these 5 million units are purchased for Pokemon games!" The expression on Pu Yamauchi's face was very complicated, both happy and a little jealous.

That's right, Yamauchi Pu is starting to get jealous.

"Actually, it's not necessarily for the game, some customers said that they actually have no interest in the game, but there can only be one pet in the Pokemon machine, and after they raised the previous pet, there is no point in raising it, and they can't bear to release this old pet."

So when they learned that they could transfer the pets they had already raised to the Pokemon game, they specially bought a GB and a game cartridge to store those old pets in it, saying that it was for them to care for the elderly, so that they could see the previous pets all the time!

"Oh my God, what a crazy idea!" Yamauchi Pu was stunned when he heard it, buying a GB and a game cartridge is just to provide for his pet pension, this concept is in Yamauchi's opinion, it is just like a madman.

"In that case, the sales of Pokemon game cartridges should have skyrocketed by more than 5 million!" Yamauchi asked with a long sigh.

"Yes, the total sales have now reached 39 million copies, and there is only 4 million copies left before Super Mario Bros.!" Satoshi Iwata whispered.

"Oh my God, if this momentum continues, surpassing Super Mario Bros. is a sure thing, and our own Nintendo's own sales record is about to be broken!" Yamauchi's expression became even more complicated.
