please make money

The latter leaned closer: "Miss?"

"Is this a new product of the Aishi Group or something? Go check it out. It has something to do with their arrangement in the book."

Johnson took the box and nodded again and again: "I'll check it right away!"

"Also, don't mess with the game console inside, I still need to use it."

"Yes!"

"Well, do it as soon as possible - at night - no, at noon, bring the game console - I mean these samples, back."

Johnson looked at the box suspiciously, but of course he did as the eldest lady ordered: "Okay!"

"Go... Ah Xiong, where is Ah Xin?"

"Miss." Beng Yaxiong, who looked like an iron tower, walked behind Jiang Tianyi: "Miss Xin should have gone to Wudang Mountain."

"Run around again, forget it."

Jiang Tianyi originally remembered that Aliya also had a lot of airs when she was shooting special shots in the book.

She also said that if Ye Tianxin was around, she would show her, but this girl went out early in the morning and was almost at Dayue Zixiao Palace at noon.

Wait until next time - if you remember next time.

She straightened her cuffs: "Call the executives for a meeting, find the agency contract between Hasselblad and Leica, contact the original factory, talk about the joint cooperation, and finalize these small matters within today, the agency If we pay for the fee, it can be regarded as a gift for her."

Jiang Tianyi walked a few steps while talking, then stopped, and asked the little assistant next to him: "Have you ever played games?"

"game?"

"Game console."

"……No."

"I've played it—but it didn't feel like it before."

Jiang Tianyi looked at his watch, recalling the fascinated impression just now, and finally asked the little assistant to add a meeting.

"Let the person in charge of the investment department come to see me, I'm going to talk to Alia about the general manager..."

……

……

"Wow--"

In the conference room, several employees who were caught by Aliya yelled and then lost in front of the big screen.

Aliya stood aside with her arms folded, watching this scene felt quite strange.

In 2022, everyone will use 2015 TVs to play 2000 FC games in game consoles with hardware level around 1985.

That's right, although the FC red and white machine still looks like FC, the function is actually not the configuration of the first generation.

The main reason is that Alia wanted to find such an old one but couldn't find it...

In the 80s, there were more than a dozen kinds of TV game consoles on the market, but the total market size was only a few million.

At that time, everyone was living with Atari, and what they paid attention to was neither hardware nor software, but a novelty.

Now that Atari is collapsing, and the game industry is devastated, Alia spends huge sums of money to be the savior of the industry, so of course she means nothing.

She wanted to combine software and hardware, and the resulting hardware was still in the style of the FC Famicom, but with more advanced functions.

In another world line, FC red and white machines have been sold since 83, and they have been sold for 20 years before they are officially discontinued. The total global sales volume has reached more than 6000 million.

Even today, there are still many places in the world that are manufacturing FC-compliant products--before Aliya traveled, she saw many so-called open source handhelds and the like.

And now this red and white machine, thanks to Alia's concept of "picking up trash", the cost of hardware research and development can't be said to be almost zero, but it is also extremely low.

The supporting production has no technical threshold pressure at all, and Aliya is sure to push the price of this thing directly to the National Bank price of 199.

Compared with the high price of 1985 yen in 14800, 199 is the real threshold for living room consoles. After all, the market has not yet reached the era of PS.

As for whether it's fun or not...

It can only be said that things like gameplay will never be outdated at any time - just look at the employees who are caught casually playing obsessively.

Compared with the game itself, maybe the more luxurious is the friends who play the game together?

The four boxes I brought are of the same specification, from No. 01 to No. 04, and they are the first batch of finished prototypes.

In the words of Shigeru Miyamoto, these four copies were given to Alia, one for her own play, one for collection, one for gifting and teaching, and one for company display.

For all future games, the prototypes and cassettes of No. 01 belong to Alia, just to highlight Alia's contribution when the industry collapsed before.

"Have you finished your market research?"

"Well, Consortium B has already done it, and it is already warming up. What President An He means is to hold a global simultaneous press conference on your side."

Like mobile phones, these things are warmed up for a period of time, and then the press conference is officially released, and then it will go on sale in a week or half a month.

In fact, the warm-up time of the game may take a little longer-for example, the tear of a certain kingdom that does not know what is good or bad, it was so exciting in March that it was officially launched in May.

That is to say, I don’t know what’s good and what’s bad, and the player has only one idea, that is, take my money immediately, now, immediately, and then put the game in my hands!

wait?What are you waiting for?I'm waiting for the game, don't you wait for me not to buy it?

"What's the suggested selling price over there?"

"The current thinking is 9999 yen."

"Is it more than 500 yuan... a bit high..."

"That's right, I also think it's a bit high, but President Yamauchi said that this price is based on the preferential pricing made in the Atari era."

"Atari is half dead and has no reference value - twice the price of the Bank of China, which is a relatively reasonable price."

Bank of China 199, of course, based on the fact that Aliya doesn't like this kind of deceiving game with a mantissa of 99, if you add an extra yuan to sell it for 200, you will definitely have to give some thoughtful things.

As for the 7000 national yuan, converted into Japanese yen, it is about 7999 and close to [-], and [-] is very suitable. You can consider choosing one of the eight cassettes for the first release and getting one free.

"In this regard, Missy, please discuss it with President Yamauchi in person." Shigeru Miyamoto was a little helpless: "President Yamauchi is an excellent entrepreneur, but..."

But good entrepreneurs want to make money, and with Hiroshi Yamauchi's ego, how could Shigeru Miyamoto, who makes games, reach a consensus with him.

Even An and Yumiko from Consortium B can't listen to each other. At present, the only one who can hold him down is Alia who is far away in the country.

Her investment of 100 billion yen can be said to have reshaped the entire modern video game industry standard in a short period of time.

Especially in the software development mode of previous games, she made the hardware, and then distributed the hardware to the major producers, and controlled the development and production of the game software in an orderly manner through authorization and platform restrictions, which means that good money drives out bad money. Coins exist because the rules are in her control.

On the other hand, this production method also ensures that game hardware and game software developers complement each other. If everyone wants to win, then there is only a win-win situation.

TV games can send Atari to the level of 2000 billion, so there is naturally a market potential. The collapse of the industry does not mean that the market will disappear.

Hiroshi Yamauchi obviously saw this too, but Alia's entry into the arena is really powerless.

He recovered from his previous daze, only to find that Alia had completely taken the initiative, and the only thing left now was the VAM agreement.

The content of the original VAM agreement was that if 500 million FC units could be shipped globally within a year, Alia would be able to get 10% of the old Ren’s shares.

If the shipments are not enough, Alia will bear all the costs and losses, and will cover all the research and development expenses of the other party during the year.

You must know that Hiroshi Yamauchi's own equity is only 14 shares, accounting for only 1650% of Lao Ren's shares, which is the same as the amount requested by Alia.

Aliya exchanged 100 billion yen, of course not for his own, but for other people's shares that can be borrowed. After all, what Aliya gave was real money.

But in comparison, if the VAM agreement wins, even in the old company, Alia has the same right to speak as him.

Not to mention Alia's right to speak in today's industry—who doesn't know that Alia Kassan from Mingdong Islands is the savior of the industry?

Hiroshi Yamauchi never thought in his life that he would be a part-time worker for others one day, and he is probably even more confused now that the situation is so good.

But Aliya didn't think the other party would be so stupid. President Yamauchi was overbearing, but he still had a brain.

"His 10% shares account for 11.1% of the resolution rights. This is what was agreed at the beginning. I want shares just as a bet."

At the beginning, she wanted to get Lao Ren to move, to be a catfish in the industry, and use the money she gave to do things.

The 100 billion yen is there. If you win, everyone will make money. If you lose, Alia will not lose money.

All the money has been spent, research and development has been done, and the VAM agreement is actually not malicious, it is more like a gentleman's agreement.

With Aliya's size, anyone would die if she plunged into the current game industry - Atari couldn't stop her, she said.

But obviously she is not the only industry to take care of, so Lao Ren became her spokesperson, and she has a share of Lao Ren.

Shigeru Miyamoto didn't understand this truth. After he was recruited by Aliya before, he was naturally focused on his own work. President Yamauchi was his father's friend and it was not easy to do it.

He listed all the movements of President Yamauchi during this period, especially focusing on the royalty system.

This thing is indeed Lao Ren's own initiative. At the beginning, Alia went to play a guest role in Mengxin to apply for the job, and used other people's ideas to demolish other people's platforms.

The royalties refer to a series of systems that console manufacturers will formulate when they develop new consoles.

Including the review of game quality, platform access standards and royalty ratio.

Third-party game developers need to purchase a development platform when developing a game, and the host manufacturer needs to conduct a quality review after the game is developed.

Every time a game is sold in the market, the developer has to pay the host manufacturer a royalty in accordance with the agreed ratio, which is a bit like the channel fee for the mobile phone software market in the future.

This kind of system objectively promotes the healthy development of the game industry, which is why Alia re-established the industry standards that everyone said before.

The current old Ren, the future G fat, and the Apple Store in the mobile phone software market all get such a commission, and they all start at [-]%.

Shigeru Miyamoto applauds this system, but it is a bit hard to say about the [-]% rake.

Alia was looking at the details of the royalty system formulated by President Yamauchi.

In fact, to sum up, there are only four-

First, the production of game cassettes, for example, is done by Lao Ren himself. He has the final say on when to produce, and he will kill you if he secretly produces it!

Second, the market sales links of ordering, distribution, and wholesale are also the responsibility of the publishers controlled by Lao Ren, and developers are not allowed to sell by themselves.

Third, there is a limit to the number of games each manufacturer can develop each year. In order to avoid shoddy production, authorization is granted according to the size of the manufacturer, with a minimum of one and a maximum of six.

Fourth, pay in advance according to the share - if you think you can sell 100 million copies, you will first give 100% of the profit of [-] million copies, and you will not be refunded if you make up more or less.

Each of these four items is actually a review of the previous Atari collapse.

But the problem is, anyone who sees your stuff thinks you are domineering...

More importantly, this system will evolve into a monopoly of the old company in the future, and game manufacturers have no say in the life cycle of the game.

The simplest example, a game is very good, but the boss is not happy with it, so he can suppress the shipments.

If Lao Ren's own game conflicts with a game developed by others, wouldn't he be able to be a player and a referee at the same time?

At present, President Yamauchi has this confidence because he holds the 100 billion yen dropped by Alia in his hand, which is in full swing during the period of rebuilding the entire industry.

Whoever dares to offend him can leave the industry now, and the upcoming revival of the industry has nothing to do with him.

In another world line, such domineering also left hidden dangers for the old man. In the future, Suo Taotian will develop PS1 to join the competition, and everyone will join the enemy one after another.

"You guys take a break first, I'll go talk to President Anhe."

Aliya put away the materials and patted Shigeru Miyamoto on the shoulder: "Have a good time here for a few days, don't worry about these things, I'm here!"

Shigeru Miyamoto nodded heavily. The reason why he came to report on his work was not only to surprise Aliya, but also to find a backer in a sense.

Lao Ren, as Alia's partner, is fighting openly and secretly with consortium B, a company directly under Alia, and Hiroshi Yamauchi is now at odds with An and Yumiko.

The two sides have common interests in the external world, but if the two giants in the industry cannot join hands, Shigeru Miyamoto feels that the problem is really big.

As for why Alia didn't get any news during this time, the biggest possibility is that An and Yumiko didn't feel the need to alarm Alia to do it.

Miss, what level of existence is that?She ended up in person, this matter is not as simple as a conflict of interests!

Aliya turned around and left the conference room. Looking at her back, Tajiri Satoshi was a little worried: "Amao, I don't think this is very good."

"What's not so good?"

"Industry matters... royalties and so on, that's something we can't talk about, and if you do this, doesn't it mean you have offended President Yamamoto?"

"Why do you think I will offend President Yamamoto by doing this?" Shigeru Miyamoto was curious.

"Because the eldest lady will definitely not agree to do this!"

"That's the problem. Even in your subconscious mind, you think that the eldest lady will not be so domineering, and that she can hold up a sky for the producer."

Shigeru Miyamoto said while pressing his shoulders: "And this is the meaning of my coming here - I believe that the eldest lady will definitely stand by our side. This kind of trust should always be maintained from the past to the present and to the future. Existence, wouldn't you complain to your mother when you encountered something?"

"...Missy is an entrepreneur."

"But she's also the well-known Kassan!"
