Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

But a few minutes later, several young people came to ask about SFC, and he was immediately overwhelmed.

Our game console sales haven't even met our targets yet. Can't you guys just buy one to tide you over? Why do you all want to buy that SFC?

The sales clerks in these department stores naturally didn't understand why they didn't sell these game consoles; they were even more puzzled than the young people.

Inside the Woodson department store building, business manager David was frowning as he looked at the documents in front of him.

After looking at it for a few minutes, he looked up at the employee in front of him and asked, "Do people receive emails every day asking why SFC isn't making any sales?"

The employee answered truthfully: "We receive them every day, and the number of such emails is increasing every day. This morning we received more than 110."

The United States is the largest consumer of electronic products, and people there will not hesitate to send emails to express their dissatisfaction or file complaints if they cannot buy what they want.

David was very unhappy. What were these users complaining about every day? It's just that a product can't be sold. It's not that I don't want to sell it. It's because I'm restricted by several other large companies. If I sell it, they will immediately cancel their cooperation with us in ordering our products, and then my job will be in danger.

There's absolutely no need to take risks for a product.

He had previously only used this game console as a toy for children.

Selling one less toy product shouldn't have much of an impact.

But what he didn't expect was that this thing would actually interest young people.

Young people are the kind of people you shouldn't mess with.

They are energetic and will make a huge fuss whenever they encounter something unpleasant.

David waved his hand irritably and said, "Alright, go ahead. I already know. From now on, pick out these emails and burn them. Don't leave a single one."

"Ok."

David let out a long sigh as the employees left.

These customers are really annoying, but they only annoy him; the dissatisfaction of a group of customers doesn't really affect him.

What gave him an even bigger headache was the daily mass emails.

"Hello, this is our daily game console sales report from Youxing Electronics Entertainment. Without stock in major supermarkets, our sales today are: ... If you are interested, please feel free to contact us."

David was 100% certain that this guy was here to cause him trouble!

Chapter 218 Toy Guns (Age Restriction 3+)

This email was sent to a group, and it's unclear how Youxing Electronics Entertainment obtained the email addresses of its senior management before sending the emails to everyone.

Fortunately, Youxing Electronic Entertainment used mass messaging instead of sending emails one by one.

Bulk emails are generally classified as spam and then placed in a hard-to-notice area.

The higher-ups probably haven't discovered it yet.

Because if they find out, those higher-ups will probably come and question me immediately.

But it's nothing serious. He can just explain the situation. After all, it's not worth offending those big companies for the sake of such a small company.

But sending sales data emails every day is really annoying.

The other party is clearly trying to make you feel bad in this way.

Should we contact Youxing Electronic Entertainment first?

David was thinking about it seriously.

However, he quickly decided not to do it.

Why should I take the initiative to contact such a small company?

It's just a small company from Japan. Do you think you're Surui Electronics? Or some large automobile group?

Let alone those car groups. Back when the Japanese threat theory was being used, which of those companies didn't kneel down and beg for mercy from the United States like grandsons? What's so special about a small game company like you?

David stopped worrying about it. As long as Yuxing Electronic Entertainment continued to send out mass emails, the higher-ups probably wouldn't pay attention, and he could continue to rest easy.

Moreover, this is only the sales data for the first week of the game.

According to reports he had vaguely read before, the entire US video game market only had a few hundred thousand users, and this time Youxing Electronic Entertainment probably covered them all.

Their sales figures will likely plummet next week.

Unless some divine intervention occurs.

But what kind of divine intervention could a mere video game possibly offer?

Wait a minute, there really is a possibility of divine intervention. He remembered a company whose product wasn't selling well, but then suddenly the son of the US president took a liking to it, instantly making it the darling of all American children.

The fact that the president's son uses the same product is quite a prestigious claim.

However... a game console from a Japanese company shouldn't receive this treatment.

The "Japan threat" theory hasn't been around for long, and the US president probably wouldn't be drunk enough to praise Japanese products at this time.

I guess I'm overthinking things. Oh well, I'll go play golf after get off work today to relax.

David began to happily imagine what he would do after get off work.

Meanwhile, a strangely shaped object suddenly appeared in the window of a small department store.

This thing looks like a toy shaped like a pistol.

In the United States, gun-shaped toys are naturally very popular products.

Guns are not prohibited throughout the United States. According to incomplete statistics, the current gun ownership rate in the United States is around 40%.

Children will naturally develop a kind of admiration and interest in guns.

Toy guns are one of the most popular toys for boys in stores.

However, the toy in the shop window looked quite strange.

The entire box cover features a dog that looks really annoying and a duck flying in the sky.

The top of the packaging box reads: "Light Gun, bringing you the most realistic and safest shooting experience."

Age limit: 3+

"Dad, Dad, look what this is."

A boy of about six or seven years old is being led by the hand by an adult while strolling around a supermarket.

Children's eyes are often drawn to toys, and this newly designed toy gun immediately caught their attention.

"It's just a toy gun, what's the big deal? We've bought you several already."

The father didn't seem to care much about the toy.

"But Dad, this says it's the most authentic and safest experience."

"Tch." The father scoffed.

When it comes to authenticity, what can compare to a real gun?

However, that thing is definitely not something children can play with. But it claims to be the most realistic and safest thing to play with, and it's only restricted to children as young as three, which is quite amazing.

Generally speaking, no matter what kind of toy gun it is, no matter how harmless it may seem, unless you can't fire bullets, it will be restricted to those over ten years old to play with it.

The US government wouldn't be foolish enough to let very young children run around causing trouble with toy guns that can fire; they are quite strict about age restrictions.

You want authenticity and you want security, but these two things seem impossible to reconcile.

Therefore, the father immediately felt that this estimate must be some kind of exaggerated publicity.

Based on his own fatherly experience, he patiently began to educate the child: "Son, this thing is a trick on you. It will probably be very boring. Look at the shape, it doesn't look realistic at all. A light gun? I think it's just a gun with an infrared beam emitted from the head and then a sound-making device to make the sound of gunfire. It's going to be very boring."

The father was both teaching and paying attention to the price tag on the item.

It costs $199, and the description states that you need to purchase an SFC game console to play it together.

They could afford something that costs several hundred dollars, but they didn't want to be ripped off.

Generally speaking, a gun-shaped toy would cost at most tens or hundreds of dollars. 199 dollars? Are you robbing me? And you have to buy a game console to go with it.

"But Dad...this looks interesting, why don't we...ask it?"

The child was persistent, and he instinctively felt that it must be something very interesting.

The father was speechless, while cursing these unscrupulous merchants in his heart for using exaggerated words to describe their products and ripping him off.

Oh well, as long as the child likes it, that's fine.

The father had no choice but to take his child into the shop.

The child immediately became overjoyed.

Toy store is his favorite place; even if he doesn't buy anything, he finds it very interesting just to look around.

His eyes were wide open, as if he wanted to take in all the toys within his sight with his gaze.

"Hello, sir, is there anything you need to purchase?"

Upon seeing someone enter the toy store, the clerk immediately came up and greeted them warmly.

"I'd like to ask what that light gun by your door is?"

Upon hearing the father's words, the sales clerk immediately smiled even more warmly: "Sir, you have excellent taste. This is our latest technological product that we have just introduced. Trust me, you will definitely not regret buying it. How about this, we happen to have a display area, and we will show it to you on the spot. If you are still not interested, you can make a decision on the spot."

“Great!” The father was delighted. He decided to find fault with it properly later. “It’s just a toy gun. You dare to sell it for $199? You’re ripping us off. Of course, if you could lower the price, it would be fine to buy it for the child to make him happy.”

Chapter 219 What kind of magic is this?

"Sir, this is a second-generation light gun produced by a Japanese company. It's definitely a toy that children will love."

In front of a 40-inch television set, the employee is busy making adjustments.

The light guns were also products that had just arrived a couple of days ago. They were only brought over by employees of Youxing Electronics Entertainment for training after the arrival of the products before they were put on the shelves for sale.

This is actually quite nerve-wracking for these employees.

Of course, the most nerve-wracking thing is not how complicated the machine itself is, but that these employees often come and play with it without you noticing.

This forced the department store manager to order that the televisions be turned off normally and only turned on when customers were interested in making a purchase, thus curbing the employees' addiction.

After the setup was completed, the shop assistant handed the light gun to the child.

The children, already eager to try, took the light guns, aimed them at various spots, and began pulling the triggers.
