Chapter 176 Retailers

This matter was not a problem for Hayasawa Airi, she easily helped to contact a few famous Budokans in Japan.

They are interested in being hired as a consultant, especially if Takeyusei is willing to pay a fee.

Now even some well-known martial arts gyms are not doing well. The economic bubble in Japan has affected all aspects, and they are also very short of money now.

However, they also put forward their own requirements, that is, they hope to add their Budokan name to the list of games they have made to help them increase their fame.

This Zhuyou Xing agreed directly. This is a matter of mutual benefit. It’s just adding their names to the end list at the end of the game, which is actually less useful than traditional film and television dramas.

Only players who have actually played the game and cleared the game may see the producer list at the end.

Generally speaking, 30% of game clearance players are quite good data, and it is even more difficult to say that a few of these 30% of people have the patience to read the list of producers. .

Several martial arts gyms have agreed that they will send their better disciples to their company to teach in person in the future. There is no need for the programmers to go out to learn by themselves, which is equivalent to saving the programmers a lot of time.

Of course this also requires an additional fee.

But now is the time to use money to save time, and Zhu Yuxing will naturally not be stingy.

It’s just a pity that the current motion capture technology is only barely usable, and the accuracy is not good at all. In terms of details, the programmer still needs to fine-tune one by one in the program, otherwise Zhu Yuxing wants to directly complete the set.

The best action fighting games are still 2D, and we will consider real 3D motion capture action games when the industry is almost mature.

In this way, the fourth team spent almost a month in the development of Street Fighter to record various fighting data, including various popular fighting techniques all over the world.

Thinking back to the beginning, there was probably a reason for such a hodgepodge of Street Fighter hits.

People all over the world have similar ideas, and they want to see who wins and who loses when different fighting techniques from all over the world melee together.

Hayasawa Airi helped to contact Budokan and then devoted himself to the development of game consoles again. Take Yusei began to review and check the games produced by the second, third, fourth and third groups one by one.

The games made by the second and third are relatively simple, but they must not be careless. Zhu Yuxing's expectation is to be as perfect as possible, and it is almost impossible. Only in this way can we maximize the absorption of more players.

At the same time, in the Silicon Valley of the San Francisco Bay Area in the United States, Songqiao is bringing people into a brand-new office building.

Now the overall size of companies in the United States is only a dozen people.

In the early days, so many people were enough. Anyway, the United States is not the main area for game development, and the main development area is still concentrated in Japan.

Matsuhashi was only short of jet lag, and immediately began to enter the working state, more devoted than others.

She cherishes this job very much, so she hopes to gain a firm foothold here no matter what.

Before the company site selection was completed, she ran around to find cooperative car manufacturers, but the reply was NO.

These car manufacturers don't care about video games at all.

This is normal. Now the overall size of gamers in the United States is only a few hundred thousand.

Surui Electronics is also working hard here, but the effect is really not very good. According to Zhu Youxing, the games developed by Surui Electronics are more inclined to the Asia-Pacific culture, which will be relatively slow for Europeans and Americans to accept. .

Suri Electronics did not think of this before, so the game development did not shift its focus to Europe and the United States.

Now only racing games and basketball games are selling better.

However, because the average price of each game in the United States can be directly sold for more than 120 US dollars, and the profit is seven or eight times, so only a few hundred thousand players still make a lot of money.

Some young people in the United States saw that the profit rate was so high, and they quickly invested in it.

The programmers in the United States are generally stronger. They easily attracted a lot of players and made a lot of money by relying on better game effects.

Now, in the eyes of Zhu Youxing, the entire U.S. region is actually a gold mine waiting to be excavated. The mere hundreds of thousands of players are simply not worthy of the total player base in the U.S. region.

After the office location was basically settled, Matsuhashi immediately started to contact advertisers and major retailers in the United States.

In the United States, it is not as easy to sell products as in Japan. Because Japan is a local war, there must be more convenience.

If you want to sell foreign products in the United States, you need to negotiate with retailers.

The most important ones are naturally the sections that sell electronic products and children's toys.

In front of the door of the headquarters of Woodson Department Store Co., Ltd., Matsuhashi sorted his clothes, then took a deep breath and stepped into the headquarters of one of the American retail giants.

Songqiao Shi walked to the front desk and politely said to the receptionist, "Hello, I'm here to find David's sales manager."

The front desk raised his head and said, "Do you have an appointment?"

Matsuhashi shook his head: "No, because I have contacted your company many times, but I haven't given a direct response. We need to talk to your company about the sale of a new product right now."

The person at the front desk said apologetically: "Sorry ma'am, it may be that our company is approaching the end of the year and has been busy with business, so the middle and senior management have little spare time. If you have products you want to sell, you can consider coming back after Christmas. "

"Then I just want to find your manager David, can't I?"

"Sorry ma'am, no, we can't tell when you'll see Manager David without an appointment."

Matsuhashi was a little unwilling. She said, "I am willing to wait. Just give me two minutes to introduce our company's video game products to you. I believe you will be interested."

"Okay, lady, you can go to the tea room and wait."

The front desk raised his hand to indicate a room on the side of the hall with the name Tea Room.

Usually people who don’t have an appointment just go there and wait.

However, people who enter the tea room usually stay there all day long.

Especially in this two months before Christmas, retail giants are often the busiest at this time.

The Halloween sale in November and Black Friday in December all need to be prepared in advance.

Matsuhashi knew that, but she still had to try her luck.
