Reborn: From arcade game to business empire

What the?

Yamauchi Hiroshi couldn’t help but be slightly stunned, and couldn’t help but speak: “How to do it specifically?” ”

“I haven’t thought about it yet!” Lin Mu shrugged and glanced at Yamauchi Hiroshi again.

Even if there was a way, he would not say it.

After all, it is not their own people, and although Nintendo and Sony are considered to be competitive, after all, they are both island people, and God knows if there will be any PY relationship between them.

After dinner, Lin Mu got on the plane and went directly to the United States.

With a yawn, Lin Mu began to sleep, and it was not until it was dark that he came to the United States.

Jiang Muyan was also already a little anxious, and as soon as he saw Lin Mu get off the plane, he immediately came up: “Boss!” ”

“Needless to say, I know it!”

Lin Mu licked his lips, and then slowly spoke: “I know what happened, Sony has a good calculation, taking advantage of the K tournament to stab us in the global finals!” ”

Now that the K race is the time of global focus, there are naturally countless people paying attention to the game.

To this end, the island country also spent a lot of money to buy the live broadcast rights.

After all, the game is too impactful.

After the island nation lost to King last year, they also worked hard and decided to raise the level of their club, and now in the island country, Sony and Nintendo have each withdrawn their own clubs.

In terms of advertising, the effect is surprisingly good.

At this time, take out the arcade, Sony is also accurate, as long as at this time, the door of the arcade is opened, and he can also make a big profit.

In fact, in Lin Mu’s judgment, the price of this arcade machine will slowly decline, and then until a reasonable price range.

Before that, it was time to make a lot of money on your own.

Sony’s doing this is tantamount to destroying the market and destroying its own way to make money.

Taking money is like killing parents.

Sony successfully provoked Lin Mu’s hatred for the devils of the island country.

Jiang Muyan smiled bitterly a little helplessly, and then slowly spoke: “Not long ago, the newspapers published these news, they were questioning whether our arcade pricing was too expensive, thinking that they had lost money before, and now they are still suing us in court!” ”

“Let them sue, let Kevin solve this problem!”

Lin Mu stretched his muscles and said lightly: “Do business, do business, do business, you are willing, do you have to blame us for buying it yourself?” ”

Jiang Muyan is not very clear, no Lin Mu can be so calm at this time, but this kind of temperament also made Jiang Muyan relax quickly.

The boss is not panicked, what is there to panic himself?

“The K-Tournament World Finals is a week away!” Lin Mu suddenly came without a clue.

“Yes!” Jiang Muyan nodded.

“Sony’s game console, can you play our games?” Lin Mu asked again.

“There is a part!”

Jiang Muyan spoke again: “We have about one hundred and twenty games, and Sony can play about forty games!” ”

Today’s arcade machines have been further innovated by Lin Mu in terms of technology, somewhat similar to the later red and white machines, which require a card to run.

Insert the game cartridge to play.

Arcade machines will definitely be saturated, swapping into different cartridges, you can run different games, from selling arcade machines to selling some, this is Lin Mu’s idea.

Lin Mu narrowed his eyes slightly, and then asked: “Do you say, does Apu know that Sony’s arcade machine can’t run our King of Fighters at all?” ”

“Huh?” Jiang Muyan couldn’t help but froze slightly: “This…”

“So test it!” Lin Mu narrowed his eyes, and then slowly spoke: “Contact the official who held the competition immediately, and let them replace our arcade machine with Sony’s arcade machine!”

“Also, invite Apu to be the guest of the global finals!” Lin Mu narrowed his eyes and said lightly: “Look, does Apu have any ideas to come, if he dares to come, it means that Sony is deceiving Apu, so that it will be easy to do it then!” ”

Jiang Muyan couldn’t help but gasp.

The global finals, which are broadcast live on a global scale, are absolutely catastrophic in the event of any accident.

“Let the official ask him!”

Lin Mu shrugged, and then slowly spoke: “If you can’t say anything that can’t be done, let’s find a way to let the world know that Sony’s arcade machine has a problem, but in this way, our price will still suffer!” ”

Jiang Muyan couldn’t help but snort.

The official K race series, the easier it is to contact, this game is developed by Lin Mu, the competition is also made by Lin Mu, the competition is official, strictly speaking, Lin Mu is official.

However, the organizer in the United States is not forestry and animal husbandry.

Inviting Apu, this really made the organizer slightly stunned, but just when they hesitated, Lin Mu directly smashed 100,000 US dollars without saying a word.

After getting the money, the organizer did not talk nonsense, and directly called Apu.

Ask Apu if he is willing to be a guest in the K series, and at the same time, he also tells Apu that during the competition, Lin Mu’s arcade machine will be replaced with Sony’s arcade machine.

Just as Lin Mu expected, Sony did deceive Apu.

At the beginning, Sony took Lin Mu’s arcade machine and replaced a trademark, replaced a shell, and began to promote.

Apu was deceived by Sony.

Sony’s idea is also very simple, even if you can’t play the King of Fighters game, other mini-games can always be played, this is a huge market, you should occupy it in advance.

While R&D, you have to make money at the same time.

If this is put fifty years later, it is more accurate to say that after ten years, Sony will not play like this, at that time, Sony will consider its own brand influence.

This is definitely not the case.

But now it’s different, the island country is still a copycat country after all, and Sony also saw this opportunity and wanted to intervene.

After all, how much you can earn, even if you earn less, you can hit Lin Mu and Nintendo by the way.

To make your competitors less money is to make yourself more money.

It’s very relativistic.

Got Apu’s willingness to serve as a commentator, and at the same time, when using Sony’s arcade machine, Lin Mu couldn’t help laughing, this big hole was dug for Sony.

Even if it is, Apu does not agree, it does not matter if he does not want to.

During the game, Lin Mu will also use Sony’s arcade machine, but the effect will be much worse, and now since Apu is willing to be pitted, then Lin Mu will naturally not be polite.
