I want to make a game

On May 1st, just as Liu Zhiyuan said, the publicity war between the Han Dynasty and Nintendo was over. Yamauchi Pu fully collected funds and canceled all activities except for necessary expenses.

The consequence of this decision is that the games of the Han Dynasty have taken over all promotion channels, but except for game fans, no one pays attention to these. Everyone's eyes are still on the big crisis in Japan.

On May 2, the stock market continued to fall. Dozens of Japanese giants spent hundreds of billions of dollars to rescue the market, but with little effect. There were too many speculators lying here to suck blood. Hundreds of billions of dollars were a drop in the bucket.

On May 3rd, there were more and more homeless people on the streets of Japan. These homeless people were not as ragged as people imagined. Instead, they were all in suits. Most of them were white-collar workers who had been laid off.

On May 4th, more than 20 days after the Japanese government’s announcement, Japanese companies experienced a large-scale collapse, including game-related companies.

"Ayuan, how about this company? Their hardware level is very good, and they are also a leader in the Japanese game industry. It's just because Nintendo didn't choose them for the new console this time, and they couldn't survive the economic crisis.

"

Liu Zhiyuan took Li Huagui's information and read it carefully. What was the money used for? It was spent, otherwise it would just be a bunch of numbers. This Japanese economic crisis is an excellent opportunity for the Han Dynasty to truly compete with Nintendo and Sega.

Although the Han Dynasty is now the number one party, everyone knows that if the Han Dynasty did not have Liu Zhiyuan, it would fall instantly. What is the number one party in the game?

It has a huge production line, broad sales channels, and numerous third parties under its banner, but its own game production capabilities are secondary. Just look at Nintendo.

Sega's game development technology is so strong, is it useful? It's useless. On the other hand, Nintendo, apart from Super Mario and The Legend of Zelda, which other games have come out of Japan?

Pocket Elf? Tajiri Satoshi's Pocket Elf was sold as a third party of Nintendo. It was Hiroshi Yamauchi who saw the craze of Pocket Elf and brought Tajiri Satoshi and his company under Nintendo's umbrella.

Why has Nintendo, which only has these few games, become the first party in the gaming industry? It has still been sitting on the first party throne for 8 years! It is because of its third parties.

It's Konami, it's Contra, it's Macross...

It was Namco, and super third parties like Enix and Square Enix, and it was the Nintendo Five that gave Hiroshi Yamauchi the throne of gaming emperor.

How did Sony counterattack? It also relied on Konami, Namco and others. Without these super third parties, Nintendo instantly fell to the bottom. If Pocket Monsters and handheld consoles hadn't died, it would have been the first giant game to die.

company.

"How much?"

"Just pay off the debt. Now the Japanese government is crazy about poverty. As long as we can help them pay off the debts of these bankrupt companies, everything is easy to discuss."

Li Huagui was excited. He rarely showed this emotion. Even if he was excited, he would always have a cold face. But this time, he really couldn't control his expression.

He is very clear about the shortcomings of Han Dynasty, which is scale! Production scale, employee scale, technology scale, etc., no world-class game company is as simple as Han Dynasty!

The terrifying production scale of Gremlins 2 was simply not something that the Han Dynasty could achieve. The whole of China was helping behind the scenes. Otherwise, the Han Dynasty itself would not have been able to produce 10 million units by now.

To put it bluntly, there is nothing valuable about the Han Dynasty. Gremlins 2? Do you really think Sega can’t make it? They just don’t have Liu Zhiyuan’s creativity.

Without Liu Zhiyuan, the Han Dynasty is worthless! But now, the biggest shortcoming of the Han Dynasty may have to be made up for, and it is not just as simple as making up for it, it is very likely that it will directly become the largest game company in the world.

"30 million US dollars, half for sale and half for free! This is Japan's top gaming hardware manufacturer, take it! If it weren't for this opportunity, we wouldn't even think about US$300 million!"

"hold on..."

Li Huagui was anxious when he heard that the US$30 million was really given away. The equipment alone was worth the price if it was dismantled.

"How much do you want to buy it? US$30 million is really not much! If it is liquidated by the Japanese government, it will be a pile of scrap metal."

"Scrap metal is just right."

What Liu Zhiyuan is waiting for is that these previously sky-high-priced equipment will be turned into scrap metal. No one in Japan will snatch these "scrap metal" from him. Those who can snatch it, such as Nintendo and Sega, have no need at all. The only ones left are Sony.

There is a shortage of gaming equipment, but can Sony be interested in these things?

And if we expand the scope to the world, there will indeed be people coming to rob, but do they have as much money as the Han Dynasty? Liu Zhiyuan has billions of dollars in cash, cash! Although this money is used to buy Soviet technology, but

Others don't know.

Maliciously raising prices? What are they free of? What’s the benefit of offending Liu Zhiyuan? Apart from making the Japanese government happy, you won’t get half a dime of benefits. This is a real first party, a third party on the level of Nintendo and Sega.

If you can't even fawn over one party, how can you still offend?

"Let's tear it down. It needs to be reorganized anyway."

Li Huagui suddenly looked at Liu Zhiyuan.

"Don't you build these factories in Japan? Are you going back to China? Where are the personnel? Without personnel, it's really just scrap metal. You have to think carefully."

Liu Zhiyuan was not worried about personnel issues at all. No one saw the real seriousness of this crisis. Japan as a whole has not recovered from the economic crisis in ten years.

Seeing that Liu Zhiyuan was silent, Li Huagui was afraid that Liu Zhiyuan would take it for granted, so he quickly persuaded him.

"You should be clear about the relationship between China and Japan. Even if these people lose their jobs, they will not go to China."

“What if I’m unemployed for several years?”

Of course he knew that the relationship between China and Japan in the 1990s could be said to be extremely tense, but these were not problems when it came to filling his stomach.

Liu Zhiyuan can now be sure that by the end of this year, Japanese game-related practitioners will be seriously saturated, because except for a few game companies, the rest have closed down, and they simply cannot accept such a large number of people.

Those unemployed people either changed careers or went abroad to look for opportunities. European and American game companies were able to catch up in a short time, not only because of Nintendo's conservative strategy, but also because of the loss of a large number of game-related talents.

Where should I go? The Han Dynasty was famous for its high salaries. Faced with the harsh economic environment of the country, everything else was nonsense. Money was the most important thing. Whoever gave more money would go to whose house these unemployed people would go.

"You underestimate this economic crisis too much. I said that this is one of the biggest economic crises in Japan's history. This crisis will completely affect the whole world."

Liu Zhiyuan pushed the information in his hand to Li Huagui.

"Let's take a look. This is the information I collected. Some of the most famous economic crisis events in the world. Let's see how big their impact is. Japan will not be able to recover in 10 years."

Li Hua returned and laughed angrily. He didn't read the information at all. He knew all the previous economic crises.

"Do you really think of yourself as a prophet? You said that this crisis will affect Japan for 10 years, but it will affect Japan for 10 years!?"

"Well, I can see into the future."
