Chapter 306: Plan to replace arcade

"Dad, did that product develop successfully?" Zhang Yang returned to Bingcheng and asked after seeing his father.
Zhang Weiguang sat down and drank hot tea: "Your boy treats me as your subordinate. If you remind me, you just know that reminder, it's almost done, and so on."
Zhang Yang Daxi: "Dad, this is the key to whether our Zhiduoxing G can sell well. In this way, our Zhiduoxing G can replace the traditional arcade, you think about it, how much sales will increase?"
Many people do not know how the PS1 of the previous life has reached the sales of hundreds of millions of units, because it has not only madly opened up the home console market, but also opened up the market for game halls.
PS1 replaces the traditional arcade motherboard, and comes with a game disc, the display and joystick control panel of the traditional arcade on the street. From the appearance, it is exactly the same as the traditional arcade.
The traditional arcade needs to replace the entire motherboard to replace the game. Not to mention the high price, storage and transportation are also inconvenient, and many times it is damaged during transportation.
And when the game console is broken, it is not easy to repair. Some people even thought about repairing themselves, only to find out after disassembling that they didn't understand it at all, and just twitched it twice, causing the machine damage to be more serious.
If you purchase Zhiduoxing G, it will be different, and after-sales service is provided, it is easier to replace the game disc. In particular, there are many games on the Zhiduoxing G that are suitable for arcade games, such as some battle games and some games.
What's more, the game price of Zhiduoxing G is cheap, and if it is accidentally damaged, the loss is not great. If the traditional arcade, the motherboard burned, the loss can be too high.
"It's really okay to do this? In the home game console market, we haven't done very well yet. You are now attacking the arcade market. There are too many clarinets."
"Several game makers on Treasure Island seem to have arcade machines, so are they not losing money?"
There are many enemies and fewer allies, which can be detrimental to the company's development. Zhang Weiguang always thinks his son's ambition is too big, can't he slow down?
It’s not too slow to become the industry’s number one in a decade or two, right?
"It's okay, we handed over the agency in Baodao to Xinxiang Electronics. I believe they will make the right choice. If they really compete with us, they will definitely lose."
Zhang Yang did not sell arcade machines, but replaced the traditional arcade motherboards with Zhiduoxing G, which was equivalent to upgrading the arcade machines. The performance of the traditional arcade is actually very backward. Playing some current games is not easy to drive. Especially when the machine is hot, it is easy to get stuck. So who would like to go to their game hall?
In the past, Zhiduoxing Company sold game motherboards, which has already opened up most of the domestic game hall sales channels, and now it has also opened up foreign game hall sales channels through dance machines.
As long as their technology can meet the standard, most arcade halls are definitely willing to upgrade the product, otherwise someone else upgrades, if you don't, then the customer source will be lost.
"Dad, don't hesitate to open this channel for this matter. Our sales will definitely increase rapidly. Just for the domestic market, it will be no problem to increase the sales of hundreds of thousands of units. In the foreign market, we will add an additional 10 to 20 million units. Sales are easy."
"In addition to some of our exclusive games driving console sales, and future dance mat peripherals, our console sales may reach 50 million units!"
"How much?!" Zhang Weiguang was shocked. At present, the sales of Zhiduoxing G have indeed exceeded 10 million units, and the increase speed is also okay, but he never thought that this product could be sold more than 20 million units, his son said. This number is twice as high as his psychological expectations!
"50 million units. Why, don't you believe it?"
Zhang Weiguang was also unsure: "I want to believe, but I always feel that it is not so high. The market is so big, there are so many brands doing this, and industry overlords like Nintendo. How much can we grab? "
"I asked Sun Tengfei, he said that our number of games is not as good as the wordy, although there are some popular games, but the profit margin is far inferior to Nintendo."
"Nintendo can patch game consoles, but we can't. If you really lose money and shout, I won't do it."
Losing money and shouting is to sell more in the future. However, this game console will be updated in a few years. You are now making money and shouting, which does not mean that the next generation of game consoles can get the market. Like Sega, the original MD once suppressed Nintendo's SFC in the American market, but it was not defeated in the 32-bit war.
Up to now, Sega's sales are only about 8 million, and even if it can increase in the future, 10 million units are skyrocketing. After all, Sega has announced that they will launch 128-bit game consoles within two years. At that time, who bought 32-bit games?
Just like now, after Nintendo's N64 was launched, haven't they all dropped sales on those 32-bit machines?
"Try it, even if we can't reach it, we won't lose. Don't forget that our goal was only a few million units. You even said that one million units is enough to sell. ."
"Although our selling price has dropped a lot, but the cost has also dropped a lot, it has also driven our game sales. Even if the console does not make money, some of our exclusive games are also attracting more players."
"When these games are launched in the future, they will still only be playable on our game consoles. At that time, did you say that our game console sales can still be poor?"
"Today, the sales cycle of a game console can definitely not reach the glory of FC for a decade or two. Five years, five years must update the next generation, otherwise we will continue to fall behind."
"Right~EbookFREE.me~ Our Zhiduoxing G for arcade machine, it is better to make it smaller. Now the machine is a bit big, it will not be very convenient to carry and install, and it’s also at home. Take up space. Think about it, how big was the original gaming machine?"
The reason why the previous generation of PS1's PS1 sales can increase is because they launched a smaller version of PS1, PSone. This product can be connected to an external display and power supply, which is equivalent to a portable game console. Relying on this selling point, let Its sales volume has increased a lot again.
Knowing the direction of the development of competitors, Zhiduoxing didn't make it in advance, that's silly.
In the next step, Zhiduoxing will begin to increase the development of external devices, relying on these things, continue to increase the sales of Zhiduoxing G, creating a jaw-dropping sales record!
"I'm going to change it? You really treat your dad as an iron man." Zhang Weiguang suddenly felt that he couldn't drink any more tea.
"Dad, I said long ago that R&D is left to others to do. You manage the R&D center. You are not allowed to do R&D in person. You can do what you want to test."
"Otherwise, let me go and see your improved model now?"
