The Wealth Empire Crossing the Hong Kong

Chapter 48 Sales Not Meeting Expectations

The uproarious battle of Wharf finally ended with the victory of the charter king, and the Jardine Group finally chose to give up.

Li Jianhui didn't care about the subsequent development of Wharf. From the moment the shares were transferred, Wharf had nothing to do with him at all.

This time, it cost 6500 Hong Kong dollars to acquire 398.7 million shares, and sold them to the charter king at a sky-high price of 3 million Hong Kong dollars. Excluding Printing Rui, its profit reached more than 5883 million Hong Kong dollars.

This is the reason why the stock market often cuts the leeks of retail investors, and there are still countless people rushing into it without hesitation.

Everyone hopes to be the winner in it, as long as the bet is right, getting rich overnight is not a dream.

Because of Wharf, not only Bao Yugang became popular, but Li Jianhui no longer kept a low profile, and he seemed to have become another wealthy family in Xiangjiang.

Not to mention other industries, just this Wharf transaction, the outside world estimates that its profit is at least more than [-] million Hong Kong dollars.

One investment, just over a month, becoming a billionaire, this kind of topic is what Xiangjiang media loves.

In this battle for Wharf, Li Jianhui was named the biggest winner by the media, while Jardine was the biggest loser.

At this time, Li Jianhui was very low-key. Except for the additional security personnel for himself and his family, he did not accept any media interviews, nor did he make any public remarks.

Even though the major media in Hong Kong praised him to the sky, he never stood up and said a word. If it weren't for the fact that reporters photographed him going in and out of the company every day, everyone would think that this man had left Xiangjiang?

Don't panic if you have rice in your hand, Li Jianhui not only pays bonuses of varying amounts to each employee of Xinjian Company, but also donates more than [-] million yuan to Li Zhengwei and others for short-term investment.

As for the other 3 million, 9 million was used by Huihong Game Company to purchase equipment, and he had to return it. Now it is March [-]th, and the mechanical equipment at Huihong Industrial Park also needs to start ordering.

As for the other [-] million Hong Kong dollars, Li Jianhui temporarily put it in Xinjian Investment Company as a reserve fund, and took it out for emergency when needed.

From the launch of Xiangjiang Square on October 10, to the launch of Pac-Man on December 30, and then the launch of Little Bee on January 12, new games have been launched one after another in just a few months, and each game has been welcomed by game fans everywhere.

For more than two months, Huihong Game Company has finally calmed down, and there has been no sign of launching new games, which has also let game companies including Atari, Sega, Taito, Nintendo and other game companies breathe a sigh of relief.

With the momentum of Huihong Game Company before, if it continues to be like this, the entire arcade industry will be ruled by it.

These companies are more hoping that Li Jianhui and Huihong Game Company will exhaust their talents, so that they will have enough time to develop high-quality games to suppress the momentum of Huihong Game Company.

In Wang Haichuan's tank battle project development team, Li Jianhui personally discussed the development of the game with the project team members here.

Although he doesn't understand various programs, he can draw the screens of the previous tank battle game, which can greatly speed up the development of the game project.

At present, Li Jianhui is also in a bit of a hurry. After entering March, the Xiangjiang Cube market has begun to shrink, and sales have begun to decline sharply. Huihong Game Company needs a new game to replace Xiangjiang Cube.

The arcade market is inherently limited. Since November, Xiangjiang Cubes have been selling well. As of the end of February, 11 units of Xiangjiang Cubes alone have been shipped. The current market has begun to be saturated.

Unless a new market is developed, it will be difficult for Xiangjiang Square to receive a large number of orders like it did in the past few months.

For this reason, the production base has reduced the production scale of Xiangjiang Cubes this month, only producing 50 units per day, and using the excess production lines for the production of Pac-Man and Little Bees.

In other words, Li Jianhui is not satisfied with the sales volume of Xiangjiang Cube. If other game company bosses have such a hot-selling game, they will definitely publicize and celebrate it.

You must know that before the Xiangjiang Square, the most sold arcade machine was Atari's table tennis balls. Since 72, there have been less than [-] units so far.

As for the Xiangjiang Cube, it has surpassed this record in just a few months, and it is still creating new records.

As such, Li Jianhui is still not very satisfied. If it gets out, the developers and bosses in the game industry will definitely kill this good-looking guy who got cheap.

In fact, the reason why Li Jianhui has such a big gap in his heart is mainly because he was too deeply influenced by his previous life. He thinks that these well-known games will definitely sell well when they come out, not to mention millions, hundreds of thousands must be there.

As a result, sales of less than [-] units began to fail, which is far from the expected goal.

Disappointed in his heart, Li Jianhui adjusted as soon as possible. Since the reality was far from what he imagined, he naturally had to adjust some previous plans.

Originally, the new game was planned to be released in September, but with the current situation, the new game has to be launched earlier, and it has to be released in May significantly earlier.

In addition to personally watching the tank battle project, Toru Iwatani's Super Mario also went to discuss with the developers from time to time.

In addition, Li Jianhui formed the third development project team, with Zhao Mingjun as the team leader, to develop a formula racing game, the F1 racing game that Li Jianhui played in his childhood.

This game will use Intel's latest 16-bit processor 8086, just like Tank Wars and Super Mario.

In 76, Atari, Sega, Taito, Namco, etc. all developed racing games, but the effect was not very good.

This time, Li Jianhui plans to use this childhood F1 to hit the market in this area to see if it can become a hit.

He is also pleased that the company has made good progress in the research and development of the video game platform, and the first prototype of the Overlord game console has been produced.

At the same time, the Xiangjiang Cube game card is being further developed and improved. It is estimated that the game card and game console will be able to be combined within this month.

If everything goes well, the Overlord game console will be launched in May, officially entering the video game market, and ushering in a glorious era of red and white machines.

It's a pity that Huihong Industrial Park will have to work overtime to complete the project by the end of August, and he can only delay the launch of the Overlord game console.

However, he didn't let him stop some work, especially the game development department of the video game affairs department, whose work was quite heavy.

One is to transplant Xiangjiang Cube, Pac-Man, and Little Bee so that they can be played by game fans on the Overlord game console.

In addition, Li Jianhui also asked him to develop casual games such as poker, badminton, table tennis, baseball, football, basketball, and chess.

Anyway, there are quite a lot of types. For the people in the game development department of the TV game affairs department, it is impossible to complete the tasks of these projects without a year or two.

Because Li Jianhui devoted all his energy to the game company, outside media reporters could not interview this person at all, so that Li Jianhui's popularity due to the popularity of Wharf did not last long.

After all, talented people come out from generation to generation, Xiangjiang is changing all the time, and there are many celebrities in Xiangjiang in this era, and the media in Xiangjiang will not always revolve around him. Li Jianhui, who does not create news selling points, cannot attract the attention of Xiangjiang media for a long time .
