Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Foreign companies that followed Chinese rules actually fared quite well afterward, with Apple being the most obedient of them all.

Without hesitation, they handed over all the data confidentiality rights to the Chinese government, promising that they would only sell products and would never interfere in anything other than selling products.

This allowed Apple to continue to develop safely in China and become a household name.

Upon hearing Bob's words, Zhu Youxing felt that history might be repeating itself.

However, this has little to do with him; the Chinese market is not something that just anyone can take over.

Moreover, even if these outsiders are truly ambitious to enter China, the gap between Asian and Western cultural spheres is still quite large. If they don't adapt well, they are prone to culture shock and will be utterly defeated by local businesses.

Without Takeyusei's help, Facebook in this world would not have been able to develop smoothly in Japan and would have faced obstacles at every turn.

However, since Takeyusei holds 30% of Facebook's shares, he is practically Facebook's second father. Naturally, the Japanese government wouldn't mind Facebook entering its market and is even willing to make certain concessions.

Since 30% of the resources belong to our own people anyway, it doesn't matter if he gets in.

"China is a very powerful country. Are you sure you can successfully gain market share?"

Bob continued excitedly, "We've been studying this for almost a month straight, and we're certain it's one of the new growth drivers for the future. I think that as the CEO, my chances of success are definitely much higher."

Zhu Youxing offered no comment, only saying, "Then I wish you good luck."

"Um... Mr. Zhuyou, don't you have any suggestions?" Bob said somewhat awkwardly.

He told Zhu Youxing that part of the reason he was going to China was to ask for Zhu Youxing's opinion.

Whenever he wants to make a decision, he now subconsciously wants to consult Zhu Youxing's opinion.

Zhu Youxing's advice is always very accurate. If he could get guidance from Zhu Youxing on this trip to China, he might be able to avoid many detours.

Zhu Youxing shook his head: "I don't have much advice, because I don't know much about it either."

Zhu Youxing actually understood this very well, but he had no interest in changing the course of history.

In his eyes, Facebook is still like an unwanted stepchild; he treats it more as a backup piggy bank, with his 30% stake serving as his reserve funds.

Now, the reserves are already very substantial, and in the original timeline, Facebook did not successfully enter the Chinese market. If he slightly alters the timeline in this world, it may still be a thankless task. Local companies are not to be trifled with, and foreign companies may not necessarily be able to defeat them.

Bob didn't get the answer he wanted and was a little disappointed, but it was just a casual question. If he didn't get any advice, he could just take it one step at a time, and it wouldn't be a big problem.

He was actually quite confident in himself. He was already somewhat famous around the world, and he believed that with his fame, he could definitely convince China and thus gain access to this huge market of over a billion people.

"Mr. Takeyu, I should be arriving in Japan soon. Shall we catch up later?"

"Do as you please, come whenever you want. I'll arrange for someone to pick you up."

Chapter 777 The Enchanting Star Tower

777

Bob arrived at Tokyo's international airport that afternoon, where a car from Yusei Electronics Entertainment had been waiting for him for some time.

The arrival of such a person is already worthy of much attention, and Bob's current status is no less than that of the heads of some small countries.

Therefore, Bob's private jet attracted a lot of media attention as soon as it landed in Japan.

However, such a big shot is naturally not as likely to get inside information as entertainment stars, and Bob initially intended to keep his itinerary a secret from the public.

So most of the media didn't know about it until Bob landed.

When they rushed to the airport, Bob was nowhere to be seen. Some people only knew that Bob had gotten into a private car from Youxing Electronic Entertainment and left.

Many people are now aware of the relationship between Facebook and Yusei Electronics Entertainment. As the host in Japan, it is quite normal for Yusei Electronics Entertainment to personally receive the guests.

The car drove all the way to the entrance of the Youxing Electronic Entertainment building.

Bob was somewhat shocked when he arrived at the Xiamen building of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

This building is much more impressive than his Facebook headquarters.

Despite Facebook's enormous size and its stock price exceeding $100 billion, it's still a force to be reckoned with.

However, the amount of working capital that can be used at will is not much.

Building a skyscraper with hundreds of millions or billions of dollars would require extremely complicated procedures and negotiations, unlike Yusei Electronics Entertainment, where Yusei holds the power and can freely dispose of all its cash.

When I go back, I'll have to build a building like this too.

Bob was determined to build such a building, no matter what the shareholders tried to dissuade him.

Upon entering the first floor of the Youxing Electronic Entertainment Building, you are immediately greeted by the classic Mario music.

On the first floor, various first-party game-themed music concerts are played almost non-stop, 24 hours a day.

This is a game company, a place that brings joy to people, so it should be different from traditional companies.

The first priority is to ensure that your employees are also happy.

How can you create equally joyful products if you can't even make your own employees happy?

Besides the music, the women at the front desk were not wearing standard white-collar uniforms, but rather a variety of fashionable clothes.

These fashionable clothes all bear some characteristics of a certain game by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

For example, one of the receptionists was dressed in a casual princess outfit similar to Princess Peach's from Mario.

The other one was dressed in casual, light-style clothing inspired by Zelda, the heroine of The Legend of Zelda.

In a recent workplace survey in Japan, there was a section specifically for women in the workplace, and one of the questions was about the top ten jobs they most wanted to do.

The top choice is television actors, because it's a respectable profession, pays well, and brings fame.

The second person became the receptionist at Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Because as long as you become a receptionist at Youxing Electronic Entertainment, you can earn an income comparable to that of a typical white-collar worker, and you also have a benefit that every girl dreams of: the right to wear whatever you want.

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment provides each receptionist with a set of game-themed clothing designed by Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's in-house costume designer every month.

Furthermore, they will fully consider the girl's thoughts; you can have any style of clothing you want, as long as it's reasonable and legal, and you can make any requests you like.

In terms of price, a girl might not be able to afford even one set of such custom-designed clothing with a year's salary.

But as long as you become a receptionist at Youxing Electronic Entertainment, you can get a set every month. Is there a job that would make a girl happier than this?

You can show off your beauty at any time, and the working hours are a standard 9 to 5. If you have children, you can even bring them to work. There is a special activity room for children in the company, but you need to make an appointment for it as the number of rooms is limited.

Furthermore, if you work at Youxing Electronic Entertainment for a long enough period, such as five years, you can apply for a set of game-themed clothing specially designed for your child each year.

All of this highlights the various special benefits offered by Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

However, this is also part of the publicity.

When stylish girls wearing trendy video game-themed outfits walk down the street, they become walking billboards, attracting a lot of attention.

When they try to find out where the girls bought their clothes, they'll discover that it was all done by Youxing Electronic Entertainment, which is also part of their promotional strategy.

"Hello Mr. Bob, welcome. Please follow me to the private elevator. The president is already waiting for you on the top floor."

Bob was immediately drawn to a young and beautiful receptionist as soon as he entered the building.

Her outfit was Alice's everyday clothes from Final Fantasy, and that youthful yet lively style attracted him.

Yeah, when he gets back, he'll get a similar outfit and benefits for his company's receptionist.

At that time, you should have more options for your bed partner.

Bob was smugly thinking about his own little plans, but outwardly he maintained a polite smile and said, "Okay, please lead the way, beautiful lady."

In other parts of the hall, there are many other elements related to video games.

There's even a small area specifically for playing games in one of the corners.

There happened to be someone inside playing the latest NieR: Automata. That person looked to be about the age of a middle school student. They were either a relative of a company employee or a die-hard fan.

Bob followed along, looking around, until they reached the designated elevator.

This elevator usually goes directly to the top floor and is Zhu Youxing's exclusive passage. Others cannot use it without permission.

We took the elevator very quickly to the top floor, and the receptionist politely said goodbye to Bob before taking the elevator back down to the first floor.

Bob went up to the top floor, which was Zhu Youxing's private floor, covering more than a thousand square meters, and it was indeed quite luxurious.

Here he can see many honorary trophies and various game elements; it's like a video game paradise.

A game model in a 1:1 scale.

The most outrageous thing is that there is a 1:1 scale Titan mech BT7274 from Titanfall here.

As someone who followed Youxing, Bob naturally knew a lot about the games at Youxing Electronic Entertainment. He could roughly recognize most of the game characters and, in awe, he truly felt that this place was paradise.

Is there a new game in Chapter 778?

778

It would be almost impossible for a typical listed company to have such an office.

To be frank, most company CEOs are essentially just employees.

They are indeed very wealthy, but it's impossible for them to behave in a way that's too different from other ordinary employees.

But at Youxing Electronic Entertainment, you don't have to worry about these things. Youxing can do whatever he wants, and everything is up to him.

Of course, this was also because Zhu Youxing had a great deal of prestige in the company, and his status was almost deified by outsiders.

It is only natural that such a deified figure would possess some special rights.

"Bob, it's been about six months since we last met."

Just as Bob was examining the oversized game figurines and various game-themed items, Zhu Youxing walked over from a distance.

“Mr. Zhuyou, it’s been a long time indeed. You still look as energetic as ever.”

Zhu Youxing said, "No need to flatter me, I'm not that old. Come on, sit wherever you like."

Bob immediately complied and found a nearby spot to sit down.

There are no designated places for people to rest or sit here; you can sit wherever you want. So he simply sat on a fake rock next to the BT Titan.

Zhu Youxing's assistant then emerged from somewhere, poured water for Zhu Youxing and Bob respectively with a teapot, and then quietly left.

"How long do you plan to stay in China this time?" Zhu Youxing asked casually.

"Well, that depends on how the negotiations go. But I don't think I need to stay too long. I do have some connection with China. One of my cousins' aunts is Chinese. Maybe I can use that connection to make the country feel more favorably toward me."
