Nintendo finally signed a Xiangjiang agent company, ready to sell the new product GAME BOY to the mainland market, and see how the market has developed here.
If the mainland market performs well, then they will sell their products to the Eastern European market in the next step. If the future can completely occupy these two huge emerging markets, Nintendo will become the absolute overlord of the game industry, just around the corner.
It's been a week. Liu Shengan called and asked the agency to sell the report. From the first week, he could roughly estimate the sales volume for one month, and also estimate the potential of this market.
Soon, a fax arrived, Liu Shengan looked at the sales statistics above, and the whole person was stunned.
How is it possible that only 7,000 units were sold in a week? In so many provinces and cities in China, one province sold 1,000 units. This is the worst case in his opinion. After all, their statistics are not retail sales, but sales to those shopping malls.
How can there be more than 7,000 units? Don’t those retailers see how fun their gaming machines are? Doesn’t it mean that there have been dealers who have sold Nintendo FC to the mainland, and mainlanders should know their Nintendo brand.
Only relying on the brand bonus effect, it shouldn't be the only sales volume! There must be a mistake in the statistics, there should be one zero missing.
He called immediately: "How did you do it, can sales statistics be wrong?"
"Mr. Liu Sheng, we are not mistaken, that is, we sold 7,328 units. I said before that Nintendo’s handheld is too expensive, and the game cartridges have to be purchased separately. The market performance is definitely poor, now Prove that I am right?"
"You bullshit! We are in other markets, there will be many players queuing to buy when they are listed, and even many times they will be sold out on the same day, with a million units sold in a week. It must be that your sales channel has not developed well, how did you follow me? Commitment?"
Liu Shengan was furious. Does this mean that they were wrong with Nintendo? Nintendo is the best gaming machine, how could it not be sold!
"Liu Shengan, we are just a cooperative relationship, and you pay attention to your own wording! Nintendo is selling well in your island country. That is because it is promoted one year in advance, and there are magazines, etc. to attract players, and there are more stores everywhere. In the mainland, you Have you made an advertisement?"
"In developed countries and regions such as the United States and Europe, various exhibitions can attract the attention of a large number of players. There are no game exhibitions in the mainland, and there have never been any exhibitions of electronic appliances on game machines."
"You have also learned that the most popular gaming machine in the Mainland is Zhiduoxing, which is similar to Nintendo FC. They do not sell game cassettes, but there are many all-in-one game cassettes in the Mainland, and the price is so cheap that you can’t believe it. Four Ten in one, only one hundred and sixty RMB, and one game console, only half the price of Nintendo."
"You give me less excuses, do video game opportunities affect the sales of our handhelds?" Liu Shengan interrupted the agent.
"TV game consoles have little effect, but Zhiduoxing also has a handheld, Zhiduoxing Z, they have been on the market half a month ago, one week, appeared in major cities across the country, and even counties. They have more than 20 agents , Agency fees are also much higher than ours, and they also have newspaper ads and shopping mall ads for terminal retailers, what do we have?"
Liu Shengan was taken aback: "You said that Zhiduoxing's handheld is already available?!"
Although it is said that many companies have already produced handhelds, this is not too difficult. However, the level of technology in the mainland of China should be extremely backward. How could it be possible to successfully develop the handheld, and it took only such a short time?
Suddenly thought of a possibility, wouldn't Zhiduoxing imitate their products and produce game consoles? In this way, there will definitely be some fancy among them, starting to produce pirated handheld cassettes.
FC is the previous generation product of Nintendo. It is planned to be completely eliminated in three years. Today, the sales are not much, mainly for the third world countries. This is actually used by Nintendo to cultivate the market. Some people pirated the game. They also chose Sexually ignored.
But this handheld GAME BOY is the product they are currently promoting, and it has performed very well in Europe, America and island countries. It firmly suppresses the handhelds of companies such as Sega.
He was even more worried that Nintendo’s sales are bound to be severely affected by Zhiduoxing’s own game cartridges, which rely on low cost and very cheap take-out.
"Zhi Duoxing Z sells much better than Nintendo, the price is cheaper, 300 yuan, which contains six games, each of which is very fun. Especially the super Tetris, which are simple and easy to use, and have the title of level."
"What are you talking about? Super Tetris?" Liu Shengan was overjoyed, listening to this means pirating their games. Their Tetris, but just bought the copyright shortly afterwards, finally got the handle of Zhiduoxing Company.
If he can help the company to acquire Zhiduoxing Company and get a good sales channel in the Chinese market, he will definitely be valued by the president, and he will be able to be promoted and raise his salary to the peak of his life.
"You will immediately send a lawyer's letter on behalf of Nintendo Corporation ~EbookFREE.me~ to tell them that they have infringed and must make compensation."
"Liu Shengan, what infringed? People's handheld is not the same as yours, and it is not a cassette, but the game is pre-installed in it."
"The game is also developed by others. Even the super Tetris is a bit like Nintendo's Tetris, and it cannot be said that others infringe."
"I also sent a lawyer's letter, you don't know anything about China's mainland, there is no legal basis for your accusation. Even if you accuse in other areas, others can respond slowly."
"Nintendo is such a big company, how can you have a room manager like you? In this matter, I will find a higher level reaction from Nintendo. The person in charge who wants to connect with our company should also be replaced by a smart person."
There was a busy tone on the phone, which made Liu Shengan furious. He represented Nintendo, and was actually taught by an agent!
Moreover, Nintendo has many top barristers in the world. In recent years, there have been many lawsuits. The winning rate is extremely high. Even if you lose, you get some benefits.
It was just that he suddenly thought that it seemed that the company did not have a lawyer who was familiar with Huaxia law, because Huaxia's market was too small, and it was not worth spending a lot of money to raise a Huaxia legal team.
No, you have to report to the company as soon as possible. You can’t let that agent take the lead. You have to let the leader know that the agent is incompetent, looking for excuses, and selling things that are unfavorable. It is definitely not his responsibility!
