Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

The video game consoles that were simply brought to the United States became very popular in a small circle at the time.

And he happened to have come into contact with him before.

At the time, he thought this thing was meaningless and shouldn't be paid attention to.

And that was the first time he was proven wrong.

Because of his underestimation, he missed the rise of video games and was severely betrayed by them.

The powerful performance and entertainment value of video game consoles immediately captured the attention of most people.

Then in the 1990s, video games almost dominated the entire US market.

Even the Morgan Group was affected as a result.

If Yuxing hadn't taken the initiative to contact Morgan Group later, Morgan Group would probably have tried every means to deal with Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

On Myron Keys' side, there was no one like Zhu Youxing.

He then suffered a huge setback.

Video games easily destroyed all the confidence he had built up over the previous years.

He was no longer the guy with amazing luck.

This led to the biggest setback of his life.

But he was quite resilient; after experiencing setbacks, he recovered, started afresh, and reached a new peak once again.

This time, however, he learned his lesson and remembered one person's name forever: Zhu Youxing.

In the future, he will pay close attention to any slight movement on Zhuyouxing.

At this moment, he learned that Zhu Youxing had actually participated in a smartphone launch event and was even sitting in the front row, and he immediately lost his composure.

Why did Zhu Youxing attend Facebook's mobile phone launch event?

While his men were searching for a television to turn on the live broadcast, Myron Case frowned and asked his men about his biggest question.

"According to our investigation, Zhu Youxing seems to be a hidden shareholder of Facebook. However, this secret is an industry secret. If he himself does not want to disclose it, people in the industry should not talk about this with outsiders."

"What? He's a Facebook shareholder? And how big of a shareholder is he?"

"Thirty percent."

"Thirty percent?! You're not kidding, are you? Why would Bob agree to let someone take thirty percent of the shares?"

Myron Keyes found it hard to believe.

It turns out that Zhuyouxing has become a hidden major shareholder of the world's largest social media platform without anyone knowing. This is truly a very unexpected piece of big news.

"Boss, I'm not joking about this. However, the other party only holds shares but doesn't have voting rights. They can only make money from the shares. Even so, it's still quite terrifying. Facebook's growth rate every year is terrifying. If this continues, Facebook shares alone could be worth tens of millions of dollars in the future."

Myron Case seemed not to have heard what his subordinate said next; he only breathed a slight sigh of relief when he heard that Zhu Youxing did not have voting or decision-making power on Facebook.

"If that's the case, then Zhu Youxing is probably just temporarily attending the Facebook launch event as a shareholder?"

Myron Case's subordinate nodded and said, "That's a possibility. Boss, you seem to care a lot about Takeyusei?"

Myron Case immediately regained his composure and said, "It's not that I care."

His men had strange expressions, but didn't say anything.

Myron Case's experience is not news in the industry; in fact, it's an interesting secret.

Myron Case lost his first company entirely because of the emergence of Star Electronic Entertainment.

In one interview, Myron Case very directly stated that he thought the most powerful company in the world in the 1990s was Star Entertainment.

He harbored hostility towards Yusei Electronics Entertainment, but he still had to acknowledge its status.

So now most people in Mikeford know about Myron Case's story, but they're too embarrassed to tell him directly, for fear of upsetting their boss.

Myron Case was unaware of his employees' thoughts; he was simply focused on the television screen that was gradually lighting up.

He soon heard Bob's voice on the television.

At this moment, the press conference has entered its middle stage. Bob has announced the first Facebook series phone developed by his company. The phone is simply called the Future Phone, which is very simple and direct, meaning that his company's phone represents the future.

The new phone released by Facebook does indeed look very stylish.

This is a smartphone with a very good screen-to-body ratio, around 80%.

Myron Case had a bad feeling when he saw the screen ratio.

This is the direction he hopes to develop in the future.

His future vision is for smartphones to have screens that fill the entire front of the device, ideally with no physical buttons, and even the front-facing camera and earpiece could disappear.

However, current technology cannot meet Myron Keyes' requirements, so he can only settle for developing a relatively mature strategy with a lower screen-to-body ratio.

The MK2's current appearance resembles a slightly larger screen-to-body ratio iPhone 6, making it quite stylish.

Facebook's smartphones also look pretty good.

On the back, Bob also emphasized the phone's camera capabilities, which was one of the selling points.

Bob soon announced the selling price of his phone.

Their phones come in three versions, each with different performance levels, and are priced at $399, $499, and $599. This is very cheap compared to the prices of phones in Mikefu, where the most expensive MK series phone now costs close to $1,000. You could say that the most expensive MK series smartphone could buy two Facebook phones.

Judging from this pricing, Facebook's strategy should be to first occupy the low-end market, so the conflict between the two sides should not be very obvious in the short term.

Facebook uses a proprietary version of the processor provided by other companies. It is said to be a 28nm processor, which is stable and has few problems. This is also the main reason why the price is relatively low.

Smartphones are still in the exploratory and early stages. Performance is basically just enough, and people don't have a strong demand for high performance. This allows smartphones with average performance to still have a certain market share.

In Myron Case's view, all of this was fairly standard and not too surprising.

This gave him a slight sense of relief.

Thankfully, things aren't too outrageous yet.

If it's a competition in the smartphone market, Myron Case isn't too afraid of anyone. His only worry right now is...

"Everyone, now I think you should have a general idea of ​​what smartphones are like. I don't think you're too surprised by our phones, are you?"

After Bob finished introducing the performance and features of his smartphone during the live broadcast, the event should have been over. However, Bob's sudden remark made it seem like the event was far from over.

Some people who were about to get up and leave sat back down after hearing this, wanting to see what Bob was going to do next.

Bob then gave a confident smile: "Next, I'm going to announce some major collaboration news, which is also a great attempt by our company."

Bob smiled as he looked down at the front row below the podium. At that moment, Zhu Youxing stood up and walked toward the podium.

"Oh?! Who is that? Why is he going up on stage?"

"It's a bit dark, I can't see who it is."

"If someone is in the front row, they must be a very important person in some industry, right?"

"That front row seat... I think I vaguely remember it..."

Just as everyone was speculating, the spotlight finally shone on the person who was gradually walking onto the stage.

Everyone could see clearly who was taking the stage.

Bamboo Star...

He's not someone in the smartphone industry, but he's a big shot that everyone recognizes immediately.

A leading figure in the gaming industry!

At that moment, Myron Case felt as if his heart had stopped.

It seems that the scene he least wanted to see has finally come to pass.

Bamboo Star has gone up...

His bad feeling grew stronger and stronger.

The appearance of Zhu Youxing caused a small commotion among the people present.

As industry insiders, they are very familiar with Bamboo Star.

Although video games and smartphones are not closely related fields, they are still considered electronic products.

There was also a processor manufacturer in the audience who had previously collaborated with Zhuyouxing on a project; they produced an audio processor module for the GSX game console.

The appearance of Bamboo Star did indeed bring about a very noticeable change to the press conference.

The appearance of the Bamboo Star was like a signal.

During the live stream, some viewers quickly became excited.

The excited people are all video game players.

They were simply curious about the news of the new smartphone release.

But when they saw Zhu Youxing appear, they could no longer hide their excitement.

These players immediately shared their stories with their friends on social media: "Hey, you have no idea who I saw at the press conference today! I saw Zhuyouxing!"

"Huh? A press conference by Yusei?" The person who received this message was also a video game player, and he clearly didn't understand what was going on. "Yusei Electronics is holding another Stream?"

"No! He didn't attend his own company's launch event; he attended a smartphone launch event! It seems there's some kind of collaboration between the two parties."

"Quick, give me the live stream link! I want to watch it!"

Smartphones, video games.

What would be the effect of merging these two?

Nobody knows.

At least before this, no one could make any connection with each other.

There were gaming phones before this.

That collaboration was a complete disaster, and it became a laughing stock in the eyes of many people shortly after it was announced.

Therefore, the appearance of Zhuyouxing at this smartphone launch event is indeed of great significance.

During the press conference, Bob felt a little envious as he listened to the murmurs of surprise that arose below due to the appearance of the Bamboo Star.

To this day, Zhu Youxing's status still far surpasses his.

Even in terms of stock price rating, it should be better than Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.
