Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Then the fruit fell off the screen, and one of the three crosses in the upper right corner immediately turned red. At the same time, the screen shook, as if foreshadowing something bad was about to happen.

"Oh, you're so stupid."

Yinjiang was a little anxious, so she immediately took action and decisively poked the second flying fruit open with her finger.

The fruit juice immediately splattered onto the background.

"I see. Okay, you don't need to teach me anymore, I can handle it."

He and Mei started playing seriously.

However, ten seconds later, a large "GAMEOVER" message appeared on the screen.

He Mei fell silent for a moment.

Yin-chan immediately grabbed the game console and said, "Kazumi, you're really not good at this. Give it to me. I think this thing is kind of interesting. A fruit-cutting ninja game? It's very unique. Are other games as fun as this?"

Kazumi shook her head: "No, other games are completely different from this one. This... I've never experienced anything like it before."

Aiko watched intently from the side, and she even unconsciously took out her notebook to start taking notes.

First, swipe your finger across the screen to enter the game.

Then you need to keep cutting the fruit to get points.

One point for each piece of fruit

If any fruit falls off the screen, an "X" will be deducted.

The game ends when all three crosses are removed.

Her usual habit of studying diligently at school also came in handy at this time; even when playing games, she believed that she had to study hard first.

Yin Jiang seems to have a better talent for playing games. At least she understood how to play the game right away, and then she started staring at the screen seriously, her fingers never leaving the screen.

However, since she hadn't played many video games before, she didn't last long. When the first bomb appeared, she instinctively switched to another one, and Oto-chan, who only had one life left, ended the game with an explosion.

Kazumi exclaimed in surprise, "Huh? There are fruits that can explode? What kind of fruit is this?"

Yin Jiang immediately retorted sarcastically, "You idiot, that was clearly a bomb! I really don't know how someone as stupid as you grew up like that."

Kazumi finally lost her temper and shouted, "Who are you calling an idiot?"

Yin-chan retorted without holding back, "Of course I'm talking about you."

The two of them arguing and bickering was something they were already used to, but right now Aiko was seriously learning how to play games and couldn't stand the two of them arguing at all.

"Alright, both of you shut up. If I lose, you'll both be buried with me and you'll both agree to one condition from Tian Chong."

"Huh? What does this have to do with us?!"

The two stopped arguing and looked at Aiko innocently at the same time.

"We're friends for life, so we have to share joys and sorrows; no one can run away from it!"

The two fell silent for a moment.

However, they didn't say anything more.

Then the three of them finally started to seriously study Fruit Ninja.

Aiko remembered learning a famous Chinese saying: "Three cobblers are equal to one Zhuge Liang." Perhaps for this reason, she felt that the three of them would definitely be more capable than Tian Chong.

However, the learning session lasted for more than three hours without much progress.

During this time, Yin-chan seemed to have grown to like this fun fruit-cutting game.

So cutting fruit is a great way to relieve stress? I never knew that before. Maybe I should try it with some fruit when I get home.

Kazumi was somewhat discouraged by her continued failures. She started to consider whether to try other games, but Aiko's glare silenced her, and she could only obediently continue studying Fruit Ninja.

Finally, the three of them seemed to be getting tired.

No matter how hard the three girls tried together, they couldn't get a score over 100. That's really difficult.

No wonder even the biggest gamer, Tian Chong, could only get a score of just over 100.

Chapter 448 New Market Growth Points

Three girls who had no interest in video games suddenly started playing them because of a bet.

Among them, Kazumi and Oto-chan have already developed a strong interest in video games.

Yinjiang is already considering getting one of these game consoles when she goes home.

She wasn't doing it to fulfill her son's bet; she simply enjoyed cutting fruit.

As for Kazumi, after Aiko also felt a bit tired, she finally had the opportunity to quit the Fruit Ninja game and enter another game with a very cute icon, the one with the fat red bird.

She was genuinely attracted to that chubby figure.

Instead of being particularly interested in Fruit Ninja, she became interested in Angry Birds, a very simple slingshot game.

She thought this was much more fun than Fruit Ninja; at least this one wasn't so stressful, and she could slowly figure out how to beat it.

Moreover, whenever I see those despicable pigs destroyed by me, I feel a sense of satisfaction, like I've taken down all the scumbags.

It was getting late, so Kazumi and Oto decided to stay overnight at Aiko's house.

They used to sleep together all the time, and it had become a habit.

Meanwhile, Aiko was engrossed in studying something on her laptop, but she didn't pick up the game console to play.

The three individuals appear to be three completely different individuals experiencing the game in different ways.

But they all seem to have found unique enjoyment in different styles.

All three seemed to be enjoying themselves.

However, their enjoyment didn't last long, because the game console ran out of battery.

This new GSL handheld console has a significantly shorter overall battery life due to its large screen and other factors.

The previous GBA could maintain at least ten hours of battery life, but the GSL can only maintain less than six hours.

The three of them quickly used up the electricity, and then they came to their senses.

"Huh? It's out of power? Can't this thing have its batteries replaced?" Yin-chan felt a sudden emptiness after seeing the screen go black.

She hasn't had enough of Fruit Ninja yet.

Kazumi was also a little disappointed; she had only played Angry Birds for a short while.

She did remember that the GBA she had played before had replaceable batteries.

And it only requires AA batteries.

But GSL is different.

The GSL was originally designed with a removable and replaceable battery, but the battery was a specially made rechargeable lithium battery, not the standard AA battery.

Therefore, even if a replacement is needed, only the specified battery can be used.

Seeing her two best friends looking so dejected, Aiko closed her notebook and said, "Alright, let's rest today. We'll continue our research tomorrow. I'll go ask Tian Chong for the game console charger tomorrow morning, okay?"

"That's all we can do."

The two of them were at a loss.

However, even after turning off the lights at night, Kazumi and Otoko still didn't forget the games on their handheld consoles.

Originally, Meiman and I were thinking about all sorts of romances.

But now her mind is filled with all sorts of little birds.

Yinjiang's mind was filled with all sorts of fruits.

Speaking of which, wouldn't fruit taste better if it was cut with a ninja sword?

After all, the juice that splatters from each fruit in the game is so plentiful, it looks like a particularly delicious fruit.

When it came to Aiko, she began to construct information in her mind about how to quickly beat the levels in Fruit Ninja.

She aims to achieve 200 points in the shortest possible time, so she must make a well-thought-out plan.

At this moment, they are not yet aware that they have gradually become captivated by video games.

……

On the other hand, GSL's sales performance has been soaring, but statistics are usually based on weekly sales, and the week is not yet over, so we can only wait and see.

However, other data can be used as a reference for now.

"So, how many customers, besides men under thirty, are from other age groups and are female?"

Zhu Youxing went to the data statistics department to personally inquire about the latest sales data that the department had just collected.

There's no need to worry about the first-day sales figures for the game console from Takeyusei; their user base is there for all to see. As long as the game quality isn't bad, the sales of the console at launch will definitely be good.

This time, Zhuyouxing is more concerned about the increase in the proportion of players from other age groups and female players.

"Three days have passed since the launch, and compared to three days ago, the number of female customers has increased by about two percent, while the number of middle-aged and elderly customers has increased by about five percent."

"So what types of games do they buy?"

"These are all casual games you made before. Angry Birds is the most popular, followed by Fruit Ninja."

This time, Zhuyouxing's main battlefield will not only be limited to core players. This time, he wants to truly expand the player base and include casual games in the key areas.

His targets are female players, middle-aged and elderly players.

A long time ago, he tried to expand the player base with Tamagotchi, but the result was that most girls only liked Tamagotchi and had no interest in playing other games.

Later, Zhuyouxing considered launching some text-based games and dress-up games specifically for women, but the results were not very good either.

Finally, he thought of casual games.

This stuff is loved by people of all ages; there's no one who doesn't like it.

Moreover, it is not difficult to make, but the resulting response can be amazing.

It seems to be working quite well so far, with many people choosing to buy products after seeing the fun and cute casual game ads, which is a good sign.

Moreover, they are not limited to buying handheld consoles; these people just want to play some fun casual games. There are more of these kinds of games on the GS1 console, but they just weren't advertised before.

However, the current growth rate is not very high, and it is clear that it has not yet reached the point of true explosive growth.
