Tokyo Gentleman Story

"Because of this, our cooperation is meaningful. @, x." Mori Xia said solemnly, "game is a one-time sales product, but the actual acceptance is not just one-time. "

&nbame is really only known to thousands or tens of thousands of people, and the animations of various game changes will not be so popular. The sales of goods are not proportional to the number of audiences. In a large eastern country, this is the result of piracy, while in Japan, it is second-hand.

Qianjia also understands this.

"Remember the online shopping mall we mentioned earlier?"

After Senxia said one sentence, Qianjia understood. Not only Qianjia, but even Lao Xu next to him suddenly realized.

"Teacher Xia Sen, do you mean that we want to do network sales?" Lao Xu asked.

"Yes, we can make a game into a digital version with cheap means. Compared with the game itself, the digital version has almost no cost. We can contact other manufacturers and build an online game mall together! "Sinxia smiled.

"It looks very good..." Qianjia nodded. If those old games can be used, it is a very good thing. If it is just a new game, there is no way to do it. "But how to confirm the game? And Negotiations from other manufacturers..."

Senxia's creativity originated from gog, a game platform in Europe and the United States. Gog is a game platform like the steam platform, but this game is an old game platform. Many old game fans know that some DOS or games cannot run on win7 or win10 platforms, but the old games on this platform have been processed and can run very smoothly on other platforms. It is very smooth in Europe and America. famous. Of course, in a big eastern country. Few people know about this platform, because many places will put this platform off the wall, let us praise the great Great Wall...

"For the time being, the new games are not for the time being, but now many old games are from the pc-98 system or the DOS system." Mori summer explained, "dos is okay, but if it is the pc-98 system, we can't run on the x86 platform. of."

Senxia is right. Some old games cannot support new platforms. This has always been an uncomfortable thing. There will be simulators in the future. There are also various reproductions and remakes, but there is no such thing now.

"The dissemination and development of gentleman culture is not a person's business. Our family of animic can't do so many things, but we can unite with other people." Mori Xia Kankan said, "After the initial sale of the game, the subsequent sales are almost There is no interest, so there is no interest."

Second-hand genuine is also a very headache for game manufacturers. Although it is "genuine", the game manufacturer itself does not get any benefits, and in many cases these benefits are obtained by other second-tier dealers.

This is like a lot of people in a big eastern country playing ps4 and then buying cheap physical games. The profits of these games are actually obtained by the merchants of a certain treasure, and the game manufacturers and Sony will not have any profits.

"But through digital genuine, we can make everyone play the real genuine." Mori Xia said, "Even if the profit is not big at this time. But it is better than completely wasting it to others."

When the &nbseam platform became more and more popular, all kinds of games began to glow with a second spring, which just shows the power of this network platform.

The time now is 1998. But Senxia thinks they can still do this. The layout is early and the results will be big in the future. Interconnection is the winner takes all.

"..." But Qianjia pondered at this time, as if thinking about something. She thought for a long time, then suddenly turned her head and looked at Senxia, ​​"Now, Senxia-kun, can you think of a way to cooperate with the official What? We can put all fan works on the shelves too!"

"what?"

Great idea!

Senxia's eyes lit up.

Why is the advantage of Dianniang not comparable to other stations? It's very simple. She has a large library and many readers!

The fan show is a gathering place for fans and game resources. If you can find this market, it seems good.

There are not many conclusions that can be referred to this kind of thing, but this does not mean that Senxia and the others should stand in the forefront of the times if they want to promote and carry forward the gentleman culture!

Just dare to speak for the world!

"But with the digital version, the audience will be smaller. In this case, isn't it a waste of effort?"

Lao Xu made a point.

However, Mori Xia shook his head: "If it was 5 years ago, it is rare to see PCs in Japan, but now our games are basically ready to be developed on the win platform, right? What about 5 years from now?"

In another five years, the Internet penetration rate in Japan will be very high.

But what Morinatsu doesn't understand is that the development of the Internet in Japan is very strange. Although the penetration rate is very high, the development speed is quite slow. The content evolution speed of the network is almost stagnant as their social model, which is next to the Strait. South Korea is in sharp contrast.

It is precisely because of this that the self-proclaimed Japan is truly in decline in the 21st century.

But it doesn't matter, because now is the prime time for the development of gentleman culture, as long as you seize the opportunity to develop, this is the best.

"Not just PCs, don't forget Sega machines. We can even cooperate with Sega in this regard."

Sega DC also has tens of millions of machines. If it weren't because of a loss of money, DC as long as it develops all the way, maybe it will change the history of future home machines.

But Senxia is not interested in this, he only knows that dc is helpful to popularize gentleman culture-unfortunately, Sega now has more strict management of 18x than the previous generation host ss.

"Looking at it this way, the question is whether those game manufacturers and whether they will accept our cooperation." Senxia was thinking with his chin. Although Senxia has been thinking about this idea for a long time, the specific points still need to be clear. of.

"In terms of funding, we have no problem." Although their income may not be able to support the development of a large-scale 3a game, as far as the current cooperation is concerned, this is very generous. Even Qianjia thinks this is not a problem.

"I can contact some game manufacturers, maybe it can be helpful." Lao Xu also said.

"Well," Senxia nodded, "Let's go to Xingyue tomorrow. Takeuchi is also a person in the industry, and there should be some contacts."

"There are also means of payment. The point card sales you mentioned before, Senxia-kun, and then purchase, seems to be a good plan." Qianjia thought of what Senxia had said before.

Senxia nodded: "Yes, second-hand stores are definitely opposed to this type of sales model, but we can let them sell point cards, and the current volume of Internet is very small, and they will not have too much opposition to this. ."

A few people say something to me, and a gentleman version of steam has gradually taken shape. It seems that this mode seems to be pretty good, at least Senxia thinks this solution is very good.

After the Internet is gradually popularized, the following things will be easier to handle. This online sales model should be popular. It's a pity that Senxia doesn't have a mature online payment method, otherwise this matter will be more convenient.

"The cost of the digital works we listed on the market is extremely low. We can set the price lower, but in order not to affect the first release, we can postpone the sale for three months to one year. And since it is a digital version, those physical bonuses And souvenirs are definitely not available. Our goal is to use cheap means to promote a work."

If you change it to the 21st century, Morinia’s summary can be called "making ip" very fashionable, and these games are also "ip" one by one, and developing it is the easiest way.

But unlike a certain site in a major eastern country that used to indulge in piracy while exploiting the interests of the author while doing ip, Morinia's approach is cheap genuine and waste utilization, as long as it can maintain sustained attractiveness and popularity, this is enough.

"Yo Xi, in addition to game manufacturers, other aspects need to be sorted out. Just leave it to me." Qianjia nodded, "Besides, we have to write programs and make software."

"That said," Senxia nodded, "Wang Sang and the others seem to have their own plans after finishing the game for us. Even if it is outsourcing, we must recruit people again."

Wang Qiwen and the others also have their own plans and ambitions. After "finishing this ticket", they also want to do their own development. Senxia doesn't want to be difficult, so they must have a new plan.

"In other words, it's time to hire people." Qianjia's eyes lit up, "It seems that we can finally renovate our office!"

Redecorate ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and continue to recruit people. This is what they will do afterwards.

"That's right. After recruiting new people, we can start a new plan." Senxia smiled.

"Well, let's do it in the future. We will move our work to Wang Sang's studio and redecorate this place during this time." Qianjia looked at everyone confidently, "Leave it to me! "

"Huh, it seems that I haven't had anything to do with me lately." Since it is going to be renovated, RPG matters have nothing to do with him. Morika found that she finally seemed to be able to rest for a while, and then Yukino and Sakino Morinya didn't plan to miss the finals and the Kendo Contest.

Yo Xi, do what you like to do!

Senxia is looking forward to...

...

The second update today is still full of integrity~ (To be continued.)
