Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

Many players immediately became restless.

They hope that Youxing Electronic Entertainment will stop wasting time and hurry up and make this game instead of doing other things.

Even if the release of Final Fantasy VII Remake is delayed, that would be fine.

"Indeed, no matter what kind of parallel world it is, sex is the primary productive force."

Looking at the viewership data, Zhu Youxing couldn't help but sigh.

The players in this world are really getting restless.

In this world, the same political correctness prevails as in the original world.

The characters in the game are now becoming increasingly ugly.

His ability to stick to his principles and continue releasing female characters that are attractive enough is enough to garner support from a large number of players.

And these players have the purest thoughts.

If you bring us good games, we're willing to pay to buy them.

This is why Takeyusei still enjoys Japanese games even in his original world.

They will only serve the market, not so-called public opinion.

However, achieving such an astonishing number of views also brought about a lot of public opinion.

For every person who likes this game and wants to play it, there is another person who wants to boycott it.

However, Zhu Youxing knew in his heart that they were all just a bunch of people who said one thing but meant another.

……

"This is outrageous! Why would such a vulgar game exist? Its appearance is a slap in the face to us!"

At a private human rights association in the United States, the female president angrily denounced the Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball game released by Yusei Electronic Entertainment at a conference.

To her, this game was a provocation.

This is a direct challenge to her authority.

This is something she absolutely will not allow.

"That's right! We must boycott this game! We absolutely cannot allow it to be released in our region!"

Below the stage, a group of people were also chanting slogans with great enthusiasm.

They all felt humiliated by the game.

They would be even more upset if such a game were to be released normally.

Therefore, they must resist such games no matter what.

"Alright, everyone, now it's time to unleash the power of our association's unity. Everyone contributes what little they can, just five hundred dollars each, and we must do everything in our power to stop this game from being released!"

"..."

When money was mentioned, everyone in the audience seemed to fall silent again.

The president immediately said anxiously, "I have connections in the government, and I can stop the release of this game by making outreach efforts. We also need to organize protests, preferably by going to places that sell video games and raising protest flags, so that more people can see the ugly face of this game."

"But...that must cost a lot of money, right?"

"This is a necessary expenditure for our great cause. Do you want to be humiliated by this game? Do you want the people around you to play such a shameless game?!"

"Of course not!"

These people became excited again after realizing that people around them could play such games.

We absolutely must not allow such games to become widespread.

Once a game becomes a huge hit, a second and a third version will follow.

If we can't stop this game's release, then it will be even harder to stop the rest!

Therefore, we must stop it no matter what!

These people suddenly became less resistant to the idea of ​​paying money.

So everyone took out their money and put it in the money box in front of the meeting.

The president, however, revealed a barely perceptible smile.

With so much money, these people really have it easy to make money!

Of course, some concrete actions are needed to get these people to willingly part with their money.

For him, simply preventing the release of a game is not an overly difficult problem.

He has connections within the government, and with those connections and the spontaneous protests organized by these people, the US government dares not underestimate their choice.

With resistance from the US government, even if your game is developed by a US company, it still can't be released!

Without the largest market like the United States, no matter how well you do, it's useless!

Chapter 883 The Internet Teaches People a Lesson

883

This is not the first time that Zhu Youxing has directly provoked these people.

He always ignored their protests, and even if they were standing in front of their US branch, it wouldn't shake the resolve of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment in game development.

The promotional activities for Youxing Electronic Entertainment are still ongoing.

From Final Fantasy VII Remake to games like Tsushima and Sekiro, and then Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball.

Among these games, Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball consistently receives the most views on each promotional video release.

Many of these people are not actually gamers; rather, they are mostly outsiders to the gaming community who are drawn in by the female characters in the games.

They were mostly there to watch the spectacle.

But then they discovered that the game looked pretty good.

At least in this day and age where more and more ugly characters are being created, it's a breath of fresh air to have such a unique game.

Myron Case was genuinely surprised that Game Star Electronic Entertainment would gain extra attention in such an unexpected way.

People who didn't play games much before have started to get interested in this stuff.

Myron Case wanted to learn from this approach of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment and also launched a similar game.

However, as soon as he put forward this idea, it was immediately extinguished by protests from shareholders and some employees within the company.

Simply put, the shareholders also have a sense of shame; they are not like Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, which doesn't actually operate in the United States.

Besides their investment in Mickford, they have other investment businesses.

Mickafu, which is not good at video games, insisted on entering the market to grab a share, simply to protect its existing base.

They believe that maintaining their core customer base doesn't necessarily require resorting to such extreme methods; they think there are other, more suitable ways to address the current poor sales of Mikef products.

If you join in developing this politically incorrect game, aren't you just asking to be torn to shreds by the American public?

Yuxing Electronics Entertainment is getting a lot of flak, but they don't care. Their hometown is in Japan, and if they're really pushed too far, they'll just stop playing in the US.

Wait a minute, are you so desperate that you're not going to stay in the US anymore?

Myron Case seemed to suddenly grasp the key point.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment is currently in the eye of the storm.

So many people are actually hoping to see Yuxing Electronic Entertainment fall from grace.

Isn't now a perfect opportunity?

So, I can also give it a push?

"President, the US Congress has decided to temporarily put our game on the banned list! We've probably gone a bit too far this time." Marketing and Publicity Manager Yasutaka Natsume personally brought a copy of a US economic newspaper to Takeyusei's office to tell him the news from the US.

About a month after Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball was announced, the public opinion surrounding it in the United States seemed to be growing increasingly intense.

The game Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball seems to be trending toward becoming a menace.

The US Congress cannot afford to ignore the opinions of the majority of the people, because no one can say for sure whether they will need the people's votes in the future. If they offend the people with the loudest voices now, they might not want the votes anymore.

Furthermore, in the United States, there is a rule that once a certain number of people jointly submit a letter on a matter, they must respond.

This time, the Dead or Alive game reached that threshold, with 150,000 petitions submitted boycotting the game. Even if we don't consider personal connections, the US Congress can no longer take this kind of behavior lightly.

And coincidentally, the United States was quite happy to see Youxing Electronic Entertainment suffer a setback.

This is not a good sign, given that Japan's video game business is raking in profits in the United States.

So whatever the reason, they decided to get involved.

Natsume Yasutaka placed the latest US economic newspaper on Takeyusei's desk. Takeyusei picked it up and took a closer look. The newspaper was currently displaying a full page of the resolution from the US Congress.

This marks the first time the U.S. Congress has formally banned a game from overseas.

Even Zhu Youxing was somewhat surprised.

In the original world, there was no such level of treatment for death or life.

No matter how bad the United States is, it doesn't actually have many restrictions on cultural and entertainment products. All kinds of cultural and entertainment products can be released in the United States, and very few are restricted.

Unexpectedly, this game, which had previously caused little stir in the world, has now caused quite a stir in this world.

"Zhuyou, we must find a way to fight back. We absolutely cannot let those people stand on the moral high ground, otherwise our future games may suffer such backlash again."

Natsume Yasutaka spoke with a solemn expression.

"Hmm." Zhu Youxing continued reading the newspaper, nodding as he did so.

“Director Songqiao has contacted his connections in the United States, and they are actively lobbying to help us.”

"What did they say?" Zhu Youxing asked.

“They all said the situation was not optimistic. The timing of this game’s release is very inappropriate, coinciding with the peak of those human rights movements. Releasing such a game at this time is tantamount to attacking them in the face,” Natsume Yasutaka said in a somewhat heavy tone. “However, there is some good news, namely that the US Congress only decided to put Dead or Alive on the sales ban list, and other games were not affected.”

In the United States, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is no longer a rootless entity. Whether it's the tax revenue its branches bring to certain areas, the employment rate it generates, or the previously good business partnerships, even Congress has to take Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's feelings into account.

We can't really push people to the brink.

So since the public's biggest protest is just against a Dead or Alive game, then let's just ban that one game.
