Reborn in Hong Kong as a Tycoon

Chapter 47 Los Angeles Fair ([-])

1977 10 Month 18 Day.

Lin Baicheng came to Los Angeles with Miyamoto Soo, bodyguards and others on this day.

The person who came to the airport to pick him up was Eric Davis from the branch here, a middle-aged man in his thirties who had been in sales before. Lin Baicheng recruited the person in charge of the US side through a headhunting company.As for the former person in charge, he was fired by Lin Baicheng more than half a month ago.

"BOSS!"

It is not the first time that Eric Davis and Lin Baicheng have met. He has been to Xiangjiang once.

Lin Baicheng nodded, glanced at the two people behind Eric Davis, and guessed that they should be newly recruited employees.

When the group left the airport, Eric Davis and the others drove over in three cars, so Lin Baicheng and his group could sit down completely.

Lin Baicheng and others settled down in a hotel not far from the branch office. Although Lin Baicheng is considered a rich man now, he didn't spend a lot of money to stay in a luxury hotel like the Hilton.For him, it is too early to enjoy these.

Although he had to fight jet lag and rest, Lin Baicheng still left Eric Davis to talk.

"Eric, how is the preparation I asked you to do?"

There were only Lin Baicheng and Eric Davis in the hotel room. After this period of surprise training, Lin Baicheng, who already had a good command of English, can now use English for daily communication, as long as he does not say some awkward words.

"It's all done, Boss!"

Eric Davis responded, saying: "According to your request, I have recruited [-] employees for the company and trained them. The characteristics, gameplay, price and market competitiveness of the two games of Bean-Man. I believe they will not let you down on the day of the trade fair the day after tomorrow.”

"Very good, well done."

Lin Baicheng nodded approvingly when he heard the words. He deserves to be the talent he specially recruited by headhunters, and he is worthy of the high price he paid.Of course, the premise of all this is that Eric Davis did not lie, but he believes that Eric Davis will not lie about this kind of thing, because everything will be known the day after tomorrow, Eric Day There's no sense in Wes lying now.

Eric Davis continued: "The twenty "Pac-Man" arcade machines that you flew over a week ago, at your request, after our employees are familiar with them, temporarily send the arcade machines to Phil Trading Company, I have already contacted Mr. Phil Smith, and we will go to his company to pick up the goods in the morning after tomorrow, and at the same time borrow twenty "Xiangjiang Cube" arcade machines, and send them to the exhibition together."

"I originally wanted to recruit people for trucks and porters, but Mr. Phil Smith said that he could borrow the manpower from his company, so it's fine to use the manpower from Phil Trading Company. But if you don't want to trouble Phil Mr. Smith, I can get the van and the porter right away."

"No, since Mr. Smith said to use people from his company, let's use people from his company."

Lin Baicheng waved his hand and did not refuse Phil Smith's kindness.This time he came to the Los Angeles exhibition and told Phil Smith beforehand that Phil Smith knew that the game "Xiangjiang Cube" would appear at the exhibition. With the exclusive agency rights for the entire North America, the hotter the game, the more money he can make.

Therefore, Phil Smith was very cooperative, not only agreed to borrow [-] arcade machines to use at the fair, but also said that he would go to the fair to see if there was anything he could do to help.

Lin Baicheng asked: "Eric, do you have any ideas on how to promote our products at this exhibition?"

"Boss, there are all kinds of industries at the Los Angeles Expo, but we are a game company, so our competitors are also game companies in the same industry."

"Although the "Xiangjiang Cube" of our Xinghe game company is selling very well in the East, it has only just been launched in the United States, so not many people know about this game, let alone our Xinghe game company."

"It is precisely because of this, in order to better promote our game, I think so."

“We can hire some local game lovers from Los Angeles who often hang out in the arcade, and invite them to come to our booth to play games on the day of the exhibition. In order to avoid being caught by other game companies, I think we just need to invite them to play games. It’s ok, it’s best not to let them praise the game, otherwise once it gets exposed, it will be very detrimental to us.”

"Once the game is really well received, it will definitely attract the attention of some tourists. Whether it is an international agent or an individual game lover, as long as someone pays attention to our game, it is a victory for us."

"but."

Speaking of this, Eric Davis hesitated, but still said: "The premise of all this is that the game is well received. Once our game fails to satisfy people, it will be a huge blow to our sales. Follow-up Selling will be tougher."

"You don't have to worry about the quality of the game, I believe people will like the game we develop."

Lin Baicheng smiled and said with approval: "Eric, just do as you say, your method should be the most suitable for us."

"Yes, BOSS!"

Eric Davis responded when he heard the words, happy that his proposal was adopted.

After that, Lin Baicheng discussed some details of the exhibition with Eric Davis, and then asked Eric Davis to go back first.

After sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, Lin Baicheng was also a little tired, and he was also jet-lagged. To prepare for the trade fair the day after tomorrow, he really needed to take a good rest.

The next day, Phil Smith came to look for Lin Baicheng, and this time it was him, the landlord, who entertained Lin Baicheng.

Because he was going to participate in the trade fair the next day, Phil Smith did not take Lin Baicheng to spend time and wine, but took Lin Baicheng to some famous attractions, and Hollywood is the business card of Los Angeles.

When visiting attractions such as the Hollywood Walk of Fame and Universal Studios, Lin Baicheng thought of the American entertainment circle, as well as the entertainment circle in Hong Kong. He is also very familiar with the entertainment circle of this era.

If the familiarity with games of this era is based on Lin Baicheng's major in his previous life, then the familiarity with the entertainment industry is based on the Hong Kong entertainment novels he wrote before his rebirth.

As for those who write about Hong Kong entertainment, they definitely cannot avoid Hollywood in this era, so Lin Baicheng is very familiar with the entertainment circles of both countries.

The entertainment industry is not only a profitable industry, but also an important publicity channel, and there are so many beauties, so of course Lin Baicheng will enter this industry.But now is not the right time, when he has more capital, it is time to enter this industry.
