Chapter 1401： ready! Gameboy!

Recently, when he came to Xiangjiang, Yin Jun had a lot of things and had a lot of entertainment.

But even the busiest, the teenager has not forgotten his game company.

Zhitian Nakata and a group of programmers did not disappoint Yin Jun. After obtaining Nintendo's programming language patent license in December 1981, after a year and a half, they experienced five unsuccessful versions and finally In March, the mature gaboy game machine came out.

In fact, Yin Jun told them the most mature gaboy version early in the morning.

Whether it is the design, the layout of the function buttons, or some features that must be paid attention to, Zhigang Nakata knew from the beginning.

Because of this, they basically belong to push back the entire design.

Rao is so, dozens of engineers have been working hard for more than a year before finally designing and manufacturing gaboy.

Ten engineering machines made after two months of rigorous testing and continuous improvement, finally passed the test, and got the Japanese game machine factory, began mold manufacturing and formal processing.

Thanks to Yin Jun's blessing, gaboy installed three games: Contra, Super Mario Bros, and Xiangjiang Cube.

Through several years of continuous development, electronic chips and memory have been able to satisfy so many games stored together in gaboy.

Then the straight section of the upper part also leaves a place where the cassette can be inserted.

This socket will not be merged with other companies' game cartridges, it is a separate standard.

That is to say, neither Nintendo nor Sega's game cassettes can be inserted into gaboy, it can only be a cassette of Kirin Game Company.

But, the cassette of Kirin Game Company is not only its own company.

The last time through the cooperation of Super Mario Bros. and Contra, Kirin Game Company has obtained the authorization of the handheld version of many games of companies such as Nintendo, Sega, Nanmengong, and Kelem.

Of course, if it is made into a handheld cassette, more than half of the profits will be taken away by the original game production company, but for Kirin Game Company, it is definitely not a loss.

Because if the Kirin game company is to make an arcade or home game machine, these game companies cannot give authorization at all. Everyone's games are exclusive and will not give the enemy a chance to grow.

That is the handheld, they have not entered, plus the previous request for the Kirin game company, so they will give authorization.

Kirin Gaming Company earns a little less, but this is also to expand its camp, so that more game players can buy gaboy this game machine, increasing the viscosity of gaboy.

Otherwise, it's all a few games, and game fans will get bored soon.

At this time, if other companies have developed handhelds, they will definitely switch to handhelds with more games to play.

Yin Junlai tried gaboy for the first time. Compared with the gaboy he had in mind, this first-generation gaboy had little difference except the running speed and a little pause.

If it is just the Xiangjiang cube, it is even smoother, and it feels the same as it does on arcade and game consoles.

You should know that the games played by Yin Jun in the past are all third-generation and fourth-generation products, which are much more advanced than the first-generation products in the 1980s.

Yin Jun was still strange before, he told them the core concept of gaboy design and appearance function buttons, etc., they have produced three games in a row, and won the Nintendo, Sega, Nanmengong and other companies In the case of patented technology, how is the research and development speed so slow?

Fortunately, Yin Jun knew that the most taboo in research and development was the pressure and urgency from the above.

This kind of research and development must not be rushed.

You must have the greatest patience and give the greatest support, so that it is possible to succeed.

In the world's famous scientific and electronic laboratories, a lot of manpower, material and financial resources are spent, but in the end, projects that cannot be successful, I don't know how many.

So Yin Jun never urged.

Now we have the birth of gaboy, and its performance has completely surpassed the second generation of gaboy.

According to Yin Jun's request, it only uses 4 batteries, but the battery life has reached 8 hours, and the cost performance is very high.

Then its memory reached 16kb, which is twice as large as the 8k of the first-generation home game console.

The graphics card is also 16kb and the resolution reaches 160x44, but the color screen is not used, and the black and white screen is still selected, because in this era, the black and white screen is more mature and more adaptable to the smoothness of the game.

The first generation of color screen handheld game consoles launched by Sega in the previous life is because of the color line and resolution, but it is not as good as gaboy's black and white screen cleaning, so it finally failed.

When holding it, Yin Jun felt that all the waiting was worthwhile.

"From now on, we are ready to advertise." Le Yiling, who has also seen and played gaboy, dominates this gaboy's affairs.

Having been the executive president of the Kirin Group for two or three years, Le Yiling's vision and vision are no longer ordinary people.

In Le Yiling's view, gaboy, a small and convenient handheld game console, has more room to play than arcade and home game consoles.

Young people, even adults, can take one with them and have fun when they are bored.

Especially in Europe, America, Japan, and South Korea, young people have the habit of playing games. There is also such a culture as long as you look at how popular arcade machines and video game machines are.

Kirin Game Company is the most appreciated subsidiary of Le Yiling.

Do n’t look at the Kirin Weekly project of Kirin Culture, they have made a lot of money, but they have consumed the same amount of resources.

There are tens of thousands of workers in toy factories and unicorn printing factories alone, as well as so many artists, animators and editors, all of which cost a lot of money.

Kirin Game Company is different.

At first, they had only thirty or forty manpower, but now there are no more than one hundred.

With just a few people, the three games created by Xiangjiang Cube, Super Mario Brothers and Contra have brought pure profits of more than 1 billion US dollars to the Kirin Group!

This is pure profit!

In terms of creating value per capita, they are the first of the Kirin Group!

Le Yiling likes such a short and powerful subsidiary that can make a lot of money.

Now they have completed the gaboy portrayed by Yin Jun, and can immediately enter the mass production stage. Of course, Le Yiling is very interested in planning.

"Ajun, you said, how much sales can gaboy have?" Le Yiling asked. "I heard you mentioned before that at least it can sell more than 100 million units?"

"Roughly the same."

"If 10 million units can be sold a year, that's good." Le Yiling said with satisfaction.

Yin Jun was not embarrassed to say that in fact, the entire gaboy series sold more than 500 million units.

It can be said that 100 million units are just the most conservative data.

"There are two factories in Japan that are quoting, one is Sanli Electronics Co., Ltd. for 32 US dollars each, and the other is Panasonic factory for 35 US dollars each." Le Yiling continued, "We have confirmed on this side, two The quality of the factories is almost the same, Panasonic only wins in their brand capabilities and value. "

"Choose Panasonic." Yin Jun said, "I know the electronics factory on the Panasonic side, which specializes in the production of game consoles for Nintendo. Their rich experience, when expanding production, can quickly form productivity. Sanli's production capacity is still too A little nervous. "

"it is good."

Le Yiling said, "So what should our pricing be?"

The first generation of gaboy is priced at about 12,500 yen, which is about 80 dollars according to the exchange rate at the time.

Of course, their selling prices in the US and Europe are slightly higher, reaching almost $ 100.

But that was in 1989, when the video game market was not as hot as it was in the early 1980s!

In today's era, arcade machines are all profitable and crazy.

The sales of arcade and home game consoles of an Arida company can match the entire turnover of the seven major Hollywood giants.

Therefore, the price of the handheld gaboy, which appeared six years in advance, should be higher.

"Sister, what do you think of the global unified price of 120 US dollars?" Yin Jun said the price he had already thought about. "The rest of the game cards take us a little cheaper, 20 US dollars."

"The price of gaboy is appropriate." Le Yiling said, "But is the game cassette cheap?"

"It's not cheap, this is just a game." Yin Jun said, "If we play more games in the future, it will be a lot of income if we accumulate less. If it is too expensive, it will not be conducive to promotion. . "

Le Yiling has always admired Yin Jun's judgment.

Seeing Yin Jun's consideration, she didn't bother with this issue.

If gaboy is US $ 120, the sales of 10 million units a year will bring in sales of US $ 1.2 billion. Excluding all manufacturing, patent, publicity, transportation, taxes and other expenses, the profit margin is almost 58% , Which is 700 million US dollars.

Even if less than 10 million units are sold, if only 5 million units are sold, it will be $ 500 million.

With the addition of a game cartridge, an average of five people buy one, and the sales of single-disc game cartridges will also exceed 20 million.

If there are ten types of game cartridges sold at the same time, then the sales of 200 million US dollars, the net profit will reach at least 60 million US dollars.

A business with a guaranteed profit of at least US $ 400 million a year is really good!

Suddenly, Le Yiling felt that Yin Jun was obsessed with making movies and TV stations, which was a complete waste of his talent.

How much can a movie make at most?

It's nothing more than a hundred or two hundred million dollars ~ www.novelhall.com ~ And not every one is like this.

It is usually good to earn tens of millions of Hong Kong dollars.

At present, the profit of a gaboy has a total of 4 billion US dollars in at least 10 years. What is the huge profit data?

And if Yin Jun develops a few more electronic products like gaboy, will the Kirin Group still make a profit?
