Tokyo: Being coveted by my wife, I just want to play games

Chapter 235 Interlude

China has the richest gaming company in the world.

Just talking about the revenue of the game sector, Sony can’t even beat Tengzi. But in stand-alone games, the field that best showcases technology and culture, there are basically no domestic games that can excel.

Many players went to criticize the game manufacturers, but in fact, although the game manufacturers also bear the blame, they only bear part of it.

All bosses, including game manufacturers and even restaurant owners at the door, are capitalists, and the characteristic of capital is to pursue profits. In other words, the essence of capital is to meet the needs of users and earn the intermediate price difference by meeting the needs.

China's online and mobile game market has gone through a long period of development. All game manufacturers know that these two sectors can make money. They can make money by pleasing mobile game players and online game players, but no one can prove that they can make money by pleasing domestic stand-alone players. Whether they can make money or not, no one is willing to let themselves become that [trial and error cost].

Fairy Sword One was popular all over the country at that time, with total sales of at least more than 20 million units, but the original version only sold 800,000 units.

Who dares to touch such a market?
Moreover, China's gaming industry is actually similar to that of the Qing Dynasty's industry, one step at a time and one step at a time.

The production cost of early games was not that high. The production cost of Fairy Sword 3 was only 500 million yuan. However, the graphics performance of Fairy Sword 3 was not the best at that time, but it was not lagging behind.

This means that the cost of trial and error in the game industry at that time was less than one million US dollars. This amount of money is nothing to big capital, but now top masterpieces often start with tens of millions of dollars.

When their eyes met, the hearts of the man in red and the man in shirt jumped suddenly.

"Sir, your crab legs."

Fuyukawa Che's success in gaming is partly due to his strong business skills.

Capital investment of this scale must be done with caution.

Now domestic capital is unwilling to invest, but although foreign capital is willing to invest, it must be ruthless.

Especially for game company owners.

With the rise of top companies such as SATE, NICO and Juyin, it is difficult for talented grassroots people to stand out in front of these giant interest groups. At most, they are just high-level workers, and it is impossible to achieve the terrifying fame of their predecessors. , but Fuyukawa Che is different.

It was a very exaggerated condition, but the two of them also knew very well that this was because their company itself also had two mobile game businesses in operation with good profits, otherwise monster managers like SATE would not care about them.

Until no one proves that domestic stand-alone masterpieces have a market in China and can make money, big capital will not enter. But without the involvement of big capital, ordinary domestic manufacturers simply don’t have the funds to make stand-alone masterpieces.

"Hey, this is not what we ordered."

Looking at the crab leg noodles placed in front of him, the man in red asked in confusion. The waiter turned sideways and asked the two of them to move their eyes to the small table by the window, "Hey, but that gentleman said he was your friend and ordered it for you."

The gaming industry has produced many legends, but most of them appeared around 2000.

It is very helpless for the two brothers who came out to attract investment during this period, but encountered obstacles everywhere. Even after the grumpy man in red yelled a few words, he could only apologize to the guests around him, and then sat down to drink tea in depression. At this time, the waiter walked over with two bowls of crab leg noodles.

Holding 51% of the shares is equivalent to gaining control of the company. SATE has a huge say in the future development direction of the company, personnel appointments, and SATE.

Cheru Fuyukawa is the god of gods in the eyes of this generation of gamers!

Fuyukawa Che? !

The man in red and the man in shirt, who specially flew from China to Tokyo to seek investment from SATE, understood all this very well, but SATE also understood all this and directly set out the conditions for taking 51% of the shares.

This is a dead end.

Looking at the man sitting at the small table by the window and drinking tea leisurely, the man in red and the man in shirt were both stunned, but soon they turned around following the man's gaze.

In an instant, the two looked at each other, and both saw strong shock in each other's eyes!

friend?

To put it bluntly, no matter how great a game producer is, he is just a working man.

This relationship is like the difference between game developers and platform developers.

In the eyes of players, game producers are very powerful, but in the eyes of manufacturer bosses, game producers are talents at best, and they are not even qualified to be on an equal footing with themselves. But Fuyukawa Che is different!
This is a real business tycoon, and his rise is legendary in the eyes of other bosses.

The rise of Fuyukawa Che is no big secret. And it's like those top business tycoons have various autobiographies, biographies and so on. When Holy Light Club was founded, there were some bloggers making videos about his growth in the game section of major video websites.

After becoming the section chief of NTsoft more than a year ago, Cheru Fuyukawa immediately demonstrated his strong game production capabilities. And more importantly, every choice he made in the workplace and business was extremely correct!
Endure when you should endure, rush when you should rush, combine vertically and horizontally, advance and retreat freely.

Being able to bend and stretch, but knowing when to bend and when to stretch is even more rare. And this also allowed him, Fuyukawa Che, to grow from a small section chief to a big shot who could stand on the highest stage in the gaming industry in less than a year or two.

Nowadays, few of the bosses who know his experience as Fuyukawa Che do not admire him. There are even some young entrepreneurial groups who directly make posters of his Fuyukawa Che's photos on the wall to motivate themselves.

This shirt brother naturally understands the power of Fuyukawa Che. But these are not the key points at the moment. The key point is that Fuyukawa Che knows the game and the market very well, and he even ordered two bowls of noodles for them!
"Did he just hear what we said?!"

"He's interested in us?!"

Thinking of this possibility, the shirt brothers looked at each other and couldn't help but feel excited. But just as they were about to get up to meet this legendary boss, under the gazes of the two of them, a sexy mature woman with a voluptuous figure and fair skin sat opposite Fuyukawa Che.

"That's Minister Sato?!"

After seeing the woman's noble and charming face clearly, Brother Shirt's eyes suddenly widened. They have been looking for SATE to talk about investment during this time, so how could they not have heard of Sato Fujiko?

Shocked, even more shocked!

This is like many people on the Internet thinking that the county magistrate is a minor official, but back in life, when others say the county magistrate, many people want to rush to give gifts to the captain but have no way. In the same way, Che Fuyukawa is famous, but the distance is too far. They just feel that Che Fuyukawa is great, but they cannot intuitively feel how powerful Che Fuyukawa is. But Fujiko Sato is different.

When they recently discussed business with SATE, it was just a small section chief under SATE's marketing department who was initially communicating with them. That's it, the small section chief was holding back when he saw them.

Fujiko Sato was a big shot they tried their best to meet, but they couldn't get an appointment. But this strong woman who was always known for her arrogance and sharpness in the industry was smiling like a flower in front of Fuyukawa Che.

Confused, the appearance of Sato Fujiko suddenly made the two of them a little confused.

At this moment, under their gaze, Fuyukawa Che had already taken his suit jacket and stood up, then walked out the door with Sato Fujiko. And just when they were about to stand up and greet them casually, Fuyukawa Che, who walked to their table, took the lead and said with a smile in authentic Chinese: "I heard what you just said, so be it, Monday the day after tomorrow , come to the Holy Light Society with your plan."

After saying that, regardless of the excitement and shock in their eyes, Fuyukawa Che let Fujiko Sato hold his arm, pay the bill and go out. Looking at his handsome back entering the BMW through the glass window, it took the two brothers in shirts a long time before they sat back in their seats.
.
"Which market do you want to enter through the games of local Chinese companies?"

The sun is shining brightly, and a dark gray BMW is driving on the streets of Akihabara.

In the co-pilot, Fujiko Sato asked curiously. The two shirt brothers were approached by the SATE marketing department. Although she has never come forward, as a woman who looks arrogant and sharp, but is actually careful in her work, she naturally knows about it.

"Yes, but it depends on their situation."

Turning the steering wheel, Fuyukawa Che drove the BMW into the lane of the residential area. Looking at the familiar streets, he kept thinking in his mind. To be honest, meeting two Chinese game producers here today was not what he expected, but it did provide him with some inspiration.

Chinese civilization has a long history. Although it has experienced many ups and downs in the middle, and has been overthrown by the West since entering modern times, the gene of cultural self-confidence will always flow in the blood of Chinese people.

This is a good thing, but at the same time
in business.

From a pure capital perspective, this is a strong emotional demand, and strong emotional demand means a huge market.

Before traveling through the past life, "Black Myth: Wukong" had already been tried offline. From the perspective of a veteran in the industry, Black Monkey will not be a shitty work, but it is hardly a masterpiece. However, players' attention and expectations for Black Monkey far exceed that of "God of War", "Big Cousin" and "Goddess". "Historical Records" and these.

In fact, in his opinion, except for 2077, which spent more than million and million US dollars on promotion, which can see some tail, there is almost no game in the world that can cause the same kind of excitement as Black Monkey in China. Same level of attention. And it is obvious that when Black Monkey released its first promotional video, it was impossible to have such a large amount of publicity funds.

And all this can be summed up in two words - unwillingness.

Players are unwilling to accept that domestic games are not good enough, and if they want to satisfy the players' emotions, Che Fuyukawa can't do it even if he uses Unreal V to reset Sword of Sword 1.

Because players’ needs at this time are more than just the game itself. What they need is to see a domestic game and a domestic game company that can stand on the world stage, be developed by Chinese people, and be respected by other countries on the world stage. .

Yu Qing, as a former domestic game developer, Fuyukawa Che hopes to see the rise of domestic games. It's quite a bit like "Don't forget to report family sacrifices to Naiweng".

Yu Li, if he wants to enter the Chinese market, he must have Wang Zha. World of Warcraft and LOL can provide him with a stable daily living, but after all, he was born decades late. If he wants to shake OTTO's position in China, he can do it purely by relying on these games, but it will definitely be a long-term tug of war. war.

But if you can help a black monkey to rise.
He doesn't care about Black Monkey's own sales profits and has no interest in holding a controlling stake, but he needs Black Monkey to help him carve a hole in the domestic market.

"It doesn't matter how the investment gambling agreement is signed, and I don't need their shares, but the core thing is that their games must be exclusive on my platform for more than one year."

"Domestic 3A masterpieces, coupled with World of Warcraft and LOL, are definitely enough for me to gain a foothold in the Chinese market."

Thinking of this, Fuyukawa Che, who was holding the steering wheel in his hand, looked slightly excited.

But soon, this excitement was suppressed by him again. It's not that I'm afraid of a car accident, but that although the future is very bright, I haven't decided yet, and everything will have to wait for a few days to be discussed in detail.

But the problem is not big. Even if the two people’s proposals and capabilities are not good, there are actually many domestic manufacturers who want to make stand-alone masterpieces but no one has the money. It just takes more time to filter them out.

He never expected that having a meal with Sato Fujiko would bring unexpected rewards today. Fuyukawa Che, who had a clear idea, was very happy. He pulled Sato Fujiko's little face and kissed her hard.

"Ah, what are you doing? I just put on makeup."

Fujiko Sato's eyes were full of sweetness, but she still pretended to be disgusted and wiped her face with the back of her hand, and then looked at the road in front of her nervously.

Nervous, rare nervous, mainly because I am about to arrive home.

Although she knew that Fuyukawa Teru was a philanderer, and although she also knew that Miyano Miwa and Sayoko were aware of her existence, she was still somewhat nervous at this time. Sensing her emotional change, Fuyukawa Che didn't say anything. He just held the steering wheel with one hand and held her little hand on her thigh.

The effect was very good. Feeling his body temperature, Sato Fujiko's mood gradually stabilized. And as the BMW turned another corner, and as a big white dog with an orange cat on its back appeared on the side of the road, the Fuyukawa family also arrived.

Needless to say, Xiaobai is a large white bear dog. Although he has only had it for more than a year, his body is already very large. The dark gray BMW had just driven into the open-air garage, and it stood upright and leaned against the window, licking Fuyukawa Che's cheek wildly.

"嘤嘤嘤——"

"Okay, okay, stop licking and get out of here!"

Fuyukawa Che quite likes dogs, especially being greeted by dogs when he comes home. It feels good, but having his face licked coquettishly hurts, not to mention that the car hasn't stopped yet.

Without further beeping, he rubbed Xiaobai's furry face and then pushed him away with a smile.

The male host ignored him, and Xiaobai swung his tail and made a detour to the passenger seat. He expected to wait for Yuezhu's mother, but he didn't expect it to be a strange woman. When Xiaobai saw Sato Fujiko's unfamiliar face, he was obviously stunned for a moment, put away his tongue and tilted his head slightly.

It is very smart and does not show aggression, but with its huge size and one eye, it is still very intimidating when it lies on the window and stares at people. However, at this time, Sato Fujiko didn't care about Gouzi at all. She just looked at the gate nervously.

There, stood a tigress with an evil look on her face.

"Have you thought about where you will be buried after you die, Fujiko?"
