Chapter 385: Sports charm

Watching Prost leave, Xiao Wang, the secretary, couldn't help but ask, "Is the price for the president too high? We have never opened such a condition."
"I still know about the Need for Speed. What FIFA, NBA and the like are sports games, can they be sold well? Many people don’t like basketball at all, and some people don’t like football, which is too limited. ."
Xiao Wang thinks that sports games are not as fun as shooting and fighting games, because many people around the world like it, but how many people like sports? Why give millions of guaranteed sales?
Zhang Yang looked at the secretary: "Go, take you to a football game tonight, and it is also one of the most popular sports events in the United States."
At the stadium, Xiao Wang looked at those crazy people and was very puzzled. This kind of regional sports competition can't enter the Olympics, can it make people so crazy?
He then looked at the price of the box tickets in his hands. Was this money snatching? It would cost so much to watch a game?
The price of the box is expensive, and the price of the front row is also expensive. Even if it is cheaper in the middle, how much can it be? How much do you have to earn for this game? There are sodas, popcorn, burgers, etc. Are sports events making money in the United States?
When he was in China, he also watched football games. He was not satisfied with the stadium. There were some loyal fans, but the tickets were also very cheap.
"Oh~~~"
Suddenly a burst of cheers burst out below, and Xiao Wang was startled, feeling the sound of mountains and tsunami.
"Did you see that these people will be crazy for sports events. Haven't they thought of participating in the game in person? I thought, but some people know that their level is too poor, and some people are totally incapable of health, and some people don't. Too much time."
"Then playing sports games is the best solace for them. Even if the price of this game will be high, it doesn't matter."
Is the price high, no matter how high the obsolete flute? Nintendo's Ocarina of Time, which was just released in North America, was priced at $249, creating the highest price of any game release.
But as a result, it is still selling.
The price of the N64 console is only 199 US dollars, and some retail stores now have some discounts, and games are more expensive than consoles. This was unprecedented before, but Nintendo did so and succeeded.
Even though the N64 has so many shortcomings, it is still selling well with the masterpiece of the game. Now it has entered the sales of 30 million units, especially in the North American market, the sales are exceptionally good.
The more this is, the worse Sega Bandai Uranus will be sold next year. Especially next year, Zhiduoxing G2 will also be listed globally simultaneously. Uranus's life is very difficult.
Zhang Yang also hopes to buy more games suitable for the North American market before this, so as to ensure that other game console manufacturers such as Nintendo can be suppressed in the North American market.
EA is undoubtedly the most representative game manufacturer in the United States, especially in home console games.
Xiao Wang nodded thoughtfully: "Then we will launch the G2 next year, and we need to increase our publicity in North America, and suppress other manufacturers here, right?"
"Yes. And it must be thoroughly suppressed so that the sales of PS2 will be affected. In terms of profit margins, we are not comparable to Nintendo, but the overall profit is not necessarily comparable to them."
The Zhiduoxing Group also has the Huaxia market, which has educational electronic products, and those profits are still very high. Even if the price of today's 586 Chinese and English computer learning machine has fallen to more than 600 yuan, it can still guarantee a net profit of more than 40%.
And according to the sales statistics of the first three quarters of this year, the sales of Chinese and English computer learning machines this year alone can exceed $200 million.
In addition, Qu Xing also has hundreds of millions of sales, with a higher profit margin. The overall net profit of educational electronic products can reach more than 150 million US dollars.
Educational electronic products, which used to be the pillar industry of Zhiduoxing, have dropped a lot in weight this year. There are two main reasons.
One is because many Chinese people really started to buy computers, especially the one called Lenovo, which started a price war and lowered the price of computers by more than 30%.
Also, the operation of the computer is becoming simpler and easier, many people are learning easier, the network speed is getting faster and faster, some people still find many interesting things on the Internet, these are not reachable by the learning machine.
However, early next year, another educational electronic product from Zhiduoxing will go on sale, which will make profits soar again.
This year, the highest revenue of the Zhiduoxing Group is the game console business. Mainframes, peripherals plus game sales, etc., taking into account dividends from SanDisk and other companies, net profit is less than 700 million US dollars.
Including the company's sales of mahjong machines, playing cards, dancing machines and other products, the overall profit this year can exceed eight billion US dollars.
As for Nintendo, it is estimated that its net profit can reach nine billion US dollars.
The Zhiduoxing Group is in the top position in the global industry. In fact, Nintendo also has unconvinced capital because Nintendo's revenue and profits are higher.
The games under the Zhiduoxing Group have lower prices, and the number of masterpieces is not as good as that of Nintendo, not to mention the high price of $259 games, not even more than $159.
But all this will change from next year, because Zhiduoxing will also have fun 3D games, the cost is different, and the price will naturally rise.
Sports competition games are the knocking bricks he used to open the 3D game market in the United States. They may even hit the heads of companies such as Nintendo and let them be stunned.
Secretary Xiao Wang carefully wrote down the president's words, and he began to consider from the perspective of the president, what the company needs to increase, in order to increase revenue and profits, and completely step on Nintendo's feet and secure the throne of the industry leader.
If this year is not the company has Z3, I am afraid that the throne of the leader will be recaptured by Nintendo.
Of course, he did not know that Zhang Yang earned more than this year. In addition to the income of Zhiduoxing Group, he also has income from investment in the financial market, which is the big head.
And starting next year, Zhang Yang's other investment will bring back a lot of income. Don't say that it is suppressing Nintendo, you must step Nintendo on your feet!
"Okay, let's go."
"President, the game is not over yet." Xiao Wang froze for a moment.
"Can you understand it? Do you like it? I just came over and looked at it casually. Let's go, otherwise it's time to get out of the traffic jam. Come this time, there are other things to do."
