Looking at the pre-sale data of DB, Izuko Shoichiro didn't know how to explain to Bill Gates that the first product he launched after he became president seemed to be about to fail.

Originally, Shoichiro, who joined the company, thought that he would become the president, and he would have a chance to become the president in the future. Bill Gates still puts more energy on Microsoft, and there is no need to be the chairman all the time.

It is not without precedent for a minority shareholder to become the chairman. Anyway, the highest decision-making power of a joint-stock company is the general meeting of shareholders. If you think you can’t do it, you can call a general meeting of shareholders, remove the chairman, or even remove the entire board of directors.

The sweet dream was over before it even started, and this result made it difficult for Shoichiro Renzuo to accept.

What is even more difficult to accept is that at the board of directors, Ueno Kazunori began to attack.

"President, why is our DB pre-sale volume so low? How much should the production department produce? How much is prepared for each language version?"

"The pre-sale period is not over yet, who says our pre-sale volume will be low?" retorted Nieko Shoichiro.

"Then do you think it will be very high? We will inform the factory and the foundry to hurry up production? How much is expected to be prepared? Eight million units, or ten million units? Do you want more?" Ueno Kazunori sneered.

If you fail, you still don't admit it. With the current pre-sale volume, three million units sold this year in island countries and North America is considered high. In Europe and other Asian markets, it is only three to five million units.

For this DB, the company has spent a lot of research and development expenses, and there are huge publicity expenses, plus a promotion fee, let alone 10 million units, even if it sells 20 million units, it will be a loss.

If hardware doesn't sell, games certainly won't sell either. How to calculate the cost of those handheld games that the company spends money on porting and translating?

When I said I wanted to be the president, your friend Shoichiro came out to fight me. Alright, I agree that you can help everyone make money, and you can share it with me anyway.

But what happened? Not only can you not make money, but you also make the company lose money, and continue Sega's tradition of losing money on handhelds, making us a joke in the industry.

How do you explain this matter?

"It seems that Ueno-kun is not responsible for the production of the factory? Then Ueno-kun doesn't need to care about this matter. Concentrate on managing the anime, including the development of toys and other peripherals."

Shoichiro is not ambiguous about joining in,

Push back directly. Anyway, he is now the president, and he is following the president's order. If something goes wrong, the president will not replace himself in such a short period of time.

Sega Bandai's frequent change of president will have a great impact on the company. Microsoft has a big business, and it won't watch the company lose money.

What's more, he talked with Bill Gates and knew that he is also a person who likes games. He is very optimistic about the game industry and will definitely continue to do it.

The two even discussed the ten-year development plan of Sega Bandai in the future, and this will not change.

Before joining Shoichiro, he had to give Ueno Kazunori face, but now, his position is more important than Ueno Kazunori, both of them are directors, he is the president, and Ueno Kazunori is only the vice president!

Ueno and Dian were pushed back and became even angrier.

"President, this kind of thing happened in the company. According to you, I don't want to be responsible? I am not only in charge of animation peripherals, but also the development of games adapted from animation. Now tell me, will the follow-up game development continue? Handhelds are sold If it doesn’t work, and the video game consoles can’t sell it, can our games sell it?”

People who buy video game consoles, on average, buy at least five games per person. The goal of major companies is to double the number, and one game console can sell ten games.

Those who buy handhelds buy an average of six games per one, while Zhiduoxing can now reach eight, and the data is still improving, while Nintendo only has about five.

What about Sega Bandai? Not to mention eight models, I have no confidence in five models. After all, the word-of-mouth of their handhelds is really not good, and the performance of video game consoles is also average. It is even more difficult to make a sudden breakthrough.

"Continue to develop. Hardware doesn't make money, but software makes money. Don't you understand the truth? Our games are still liked by many people. We are slowly developing and growing to make more money in the future."

Sega Bandai's games are indeed profitable. In fact, if they are willing to license some games to other game console manufacturers, they can make more profits.

However, Zhiduoxing, Nintendo, and Sunny did not authorize the games developed by themselves to other game machine manufacturers, but the second party did not prohibit licensing to other companies.

For example, Blizzard, the second-party game company of Zhiduoxing, once licensed the game to Soni and Nintendo, and the performance is hard to describe.

If it is possible to perform well, will Zhi Duoxing buy it?

Nintendo's game reviews used to be known as the industry's authority, but now, Nintendo has missed it many times, and everyone no longer believes it. Whether it is fun or not depends on the comprehensive evaluation of other media.

Those with a relatively high comprehensive evaluation will sell well.

When Kazunori Ueno heard what Shōichiro Nurizuo said, he directly stretched out a hand: "Continue development? Yes, let's allocate funds. The company's development of games has also passed internal evaluations, but the sales are not very good."

"Those game developers work very hard every day, and even often have to work overtime. Shouldn't they be paid more? It's some departments that don't make money at all. Why do they get such high salaries?"

"I suggest laying off employees in the hardware department, reducing expenses, and making the company's report for this year look better, so that the chairman won't be unhappy."

Shinko Shoichiro glared at Ueno Kazunori: "Impossible! I disagree with this matter. You can contact the chairman to hold a board meeting. What we want is not a good-looking report, but the long-term development of the company."

"The company's stock price has fallen, and it has nothing to do with the report, because everyone knows why. Today's meeting is to study how to sell DB, and the rest is temporarily put on hold."

Ueno Kazunori shrugged: "Then I have nothing to say, President, you can explain to the President when the time comes."

The meeting broke up unhappy, and no specific plan was worked out, so Shoichiro Nezuko felt very headache. He feels that Sega Bandai, including its predecessor, Sega, has never been successful since the creation of Zhiduoxing.

Obviously they did it earlier and should be more experienced, so why is it so difficult to succeed once?

After the news reached Bill Gates' ears, Bill Gates was also very depressed. The incident was so sudden that no one could have expected it.

Microsoft's stock price is also down, but sales have little impact. But for Sega Bandai, he has nothing to do. For now, we can only produce as much as possible.

Even if it can't be sold, the sales time is longer, which is better than being out of stock.

Hope DB can succeed.
