Chapter Ninety-Five: Wu Gao Feng is coming, and the flowers and butterflies are coming

For the production line of batteries and LCDs, Wang Jizhi recommends buying Panasonic batteries and Sharp STN LCDs.

Panasonic batteries were very strong in the 80s, and at the same time they were synonymous with good quality and low price. Of course, the battery technology in Europe and the United States may be higher, but it may not sell the production line.

The benefit of Sharp's STN is that it has low power consumption and has the biggest advantage of saving power, which is very suitable for handheld game consoles and BB machines at this stage. However, compared with FTF LCD, STN has a lower resolution and lower color reproduction, but FTF LCD has the highest production cost and the highest requirements for polarizers.

At this stage, Wujiang Group still buys the STN LCD production line first, absorbs its technology, and then develops FTF technology.

Rex Aiden soon went to Japan to negotiate the purchase of the production line on behalf of the Borderless Group.

At the same time, Nintendo has also learned that the Borderless Group is preparing to release a game console in Japan.

In the office of the president of Nintendo Corporation.

Yamauchi Pu sneered and put down the relevant information of the "Qiqi Home Game Console".

"Wujiang Group is not self-sufficient, and dares to enter the home game console! In front of our Nintendo FC, it is simply a mantis arm blocking the car, and in the end it cannot escape the fate of destruction! ”

Yamauchi Pu only saw the introduction of the "Poor Strange Home Game Console" on paper, although the information mentioned that the performance of the "Poor Strange Home Game Console" is very powerful, and the game screen surpasses the FC red and white machine. But Yamauchi didn't care, because Sega and other companies developed home game consoles with more performance than FC, but the result?

It's still FC dominant!

Whether home game consoles can be popular or not depends mainly on the game.

In this regard, the Borderless Group will certainly not be able to match Nintendo.

Not to mention that Nintendo itself has launched a number of games that are popular all over the world, the number of third-party games on the FC platform alone is enough to crush the "poor home game console".

"Notice that no game developer is allowed to develop games for the "Poor Home Game Console"! Otherwise, the game cannot be released on the FC platform!! Yamauchi said to the secretary.

The lion fights the rabbit, and also uses all his strength.

Yamauchi Pu will not tolerate the challenger, and must crush him to death!

Without a third-party game developer to develop games for it, would the "Poor Home Game Console" still sell well?

……

The circle of the Japanese game industry is not large, and the news that the Wujiang Group is about to release the "Qiqi Home Game Console" has already spread all over the city.

It's just that everyone is just watching jokes.

No one is stupid enough to risk offending Nintendo and join the camp of "poor home game consoles".

So far, most game manufacturers in Japan have avoided the "Poor Strange Home Game Console".

Only those game developers whose games are shoddy and cannot be listed on the FC platform have extended an olive branch to the "poor home game console".

However, how can Wujiang Group look up to such a game developer?

How the American Atari company collapsed, Zhao Ye still knows.

Because Atari only cares about making money and does not pay attention to game quality control, a large number of shoddy games appeared on the Atari game console platform, which caused public anger and caused Atari to collapse.

Zhao Ye now doesn't expect to attract third-party game developers in the first place.

The phoenix will come, and the flowers and butterflies will come.

The "Sycamore Tree" of "Poor Strange Home Game Console" is planted, why worry about the phoenix not coming?

……

Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio.

At this moment, in addition to the production of the Pokemon cartoon, the studio has also set up three new projects, that is, the production of "Dragon Quest", "The Legend of Zelda", and "Final Fantasy" cartoons.

The studio has more than 800 artists, and although many of them are just college students who have just graduated, the college students of this period are all really talented.

Including "Pokemon", Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio is already producing four series of animated films at the same time.

"It's been a long time since Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio has been so busy as it is now, and there are more and more newcomers in the studio, full of vigor and prosperity, and the recasting of the studio's former glory is just around the corner!! Xu Xiangming, the director of the factory, sighed excitedly.

Zhao Ye sat on the side and sipped tea slowly, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but smile slightly: "Actually, making cartoons is quite profitable, but Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio didn't find the right direction before. The studio wants to make money through cartoons, but this proves that it doesn't work at all, and Japanese cartoons are given away for free to my country's TV stations, how do you compete with each other? ”

After a pause, Zhao Ye said with a smile, "But selling toys through cartoons can make a lot of money." Although piracy is rampant in China, Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio can eat the first bite of meat, after all, piracy also takes time. And then there's the export of cartoons. As the old saying goes, 'Kou can go, I can go'. Since Japanese manufacturers give cartoons to our country's TV station for free, and then make money by selling toys, then we can naturally give cartoons to Japanese TV for free, and then also sell toys to make money! ”

"You just don't pay attention to the development and utilization of copyright, and I don't know how many classics have been launched since the establishment of Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio. If you can make good use of these cartoons, why do you lose money year after year? ”

Zhao Ye said in the end and sighed.

However, this also gave him the opportunity to join the Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio.

The factory director Xu Xiangming smiled bitterly, his own people have seen a short time, and they didn't think of these things at all.

"The four animated films "Pokemon", "Dragon Quest", "The Legend of Zelda" and "Final Fantasy" must be made well and pay attention to quality, which will be the cash cow of Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio!"

Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio is not profitable now, and cartoons are given away for free, so Zhao Ye gave 30% of the peripheral income of these IPs to Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio.

Don't underestimate the 30%, the profit can be high, and the surrounding income is the cash cow!

In the future, these IPs will become popular, and Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio can also produce animated films and release them directly in theaters, making money at the box office while earning peripheral income.

Japan's animation industry accounts for more than 10% of Japan's GDP and is the third pillar of the Japanese economy.

It can be seen how great the development potential of the animation industry is!

Zhao Ye now holds the most powerful animation studio in China, and it would be unreasonable not to grasp the opportunity.

However, the threshold for anime is still relatively high, and ordinary people can't do it, so a professional production team is usually needed.

The reason why the Japanese anime industry is so developed is that the manga industry in their country is developing very well.

Zhao Ye pondered whether to let Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio run a comic magazine, in the future, some popular comics can be adapted into cartoons, or even live-action movies.

In order to maximize profits, Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio will sooner or later also get involved in live-action films, and Marvel Studios is an example.

After Zhao Ye figured it out, he didn't care about Xu Xiangming's surprise, and directly instructed him, "Director Xu, I plan to ask Shanghai Fine Arts Film Studio to create a comic magazine, called "Juvenile Weekly", you can prepare well." ”

Xu Xiangming was stunned when he heard this, and he almost couldn't keep up with Zhao Ye's thinking.
