Chapter 5 Oh! What is that? Can I eat it?

Almost all industries do not have a clear development path as they seem to future generations.

Those who laugh to the end are outstanding, but may not be the best. The reason why they laugh to the end is because they made the right choice again and again. They did not make such a "great" choice to join the National (Harmony) Party on the 1949 front and join the Soviet Union in 1990.

Sega is able to make hardware now, unlike Namco and Taidong. Although it is an arcade giant, it still has to condescend to make home console games for Nintendo because they have made more correct choices than Taidong and Namco.

Shinto Nakayama and Takahashi were chatting, and the two exchanged their understanding of the current development status of the electronic game industry and their prospects for the future.

Shinho Nakayama gradually recognized Takahashi, and Takahashi also felt that Shinho Nakayama was indeed far-sighted. However, Takahashi did not express everything he knew.

That's not smart but stupid. Although he is chatting and laughing with Sega's president now, it doesn't mean that everyone is forever friends.

The people who will be enemies will be extremely powerful when they will be enemies. Perhaps only the founder of Kaishen Logistics can do it.

"Are you interested in making games for Sega's home machine? I heard that the games produced by your club have been blocked by Nintendo recently. Sega has a console with stronger performance than red and white machines, a more humane system, and does not need to advance production fees, and the premium is far lower than Nintendo. Are you interested in releasing games in Sega?"

No matter how good the conversation is, it will end, and the imagination will eventually come true. Everyone is the helmsman of the company, not the "Black (Harmony) Dao Brother" at the roadside barbecue stall. It is impossible to eat and blow it all, it is just a dream after all.

Takahashi did not agree or deny it, saying, "I think it's difficult for Sega to surpass Nintendo. I wonder what you think?"

"Haha! Difficulties are difficult, but they don't mean there is no hope, right? Sega is a popular arcade company and a home console company that players like. Those who are good at it are helping, while those who are lose their power are helping. Although Nintendo has many followers now, I don't think they will continue like this forever.

Now there is almost only Nintendo’s red and white machine option. If you want to make money or make a lot of money, you don’t have a second choice.

I think Sega's sms host will become the second choice for many manufacturers. SMS has a more friendly development platform and more mature technology. I think as long as a pilot is the first to join and earn money, more people will follow. And I think Wanhu is the pilot."

Zhongshan Hayao praised Wanhu, as if he didn't care at all that such an evaluation would make Wanhu's asking price higher.

"The central processing unit is a z80 modified z80a designed and produced by Zilog Zieglo, with a main frequency of 3.5 megahertz.

The video display processor comes from Texas Instruments tms9918. It supports 32 colors on the same screen, which is much higher than the highest thirteen colors on the same screen for red and white machines.

Supports 8*8 animation sprites, support horizontal scrolls and vertical scrolls.

The sound module still uses four mono channels, including three square waves and one white noise. However, there are three tone generators, and the ym2413fm synthesizer produced by Yamaha.

Therefore, it can support 9 audio channels, or support 6 tone channels plus five percussion channels.

It is undeniable that such a machine has a much higher performance than a red and white machine, but I think it is difficult for this machine to succeed in Japan.

To be honest, you are too persistent and overwhelming your opponent in hardware performance. Although this is not a mistake, the consequences are the same price crushing.

There are many cheap games, many machines that play more people, and more machines that play less expensive games and fewer people. Which one do you think players will choose?”

Takahashi asked after finishing the hardware parameters of the Sega master system sms.

"Of course it's not as good as Nintendo in Japan..." Shiraoka Nakayama was not angry when he heard Takahashi's words and said slowly, "But it may not be necessary in foreign countries. Europe, North America, South America, Southeast Asia, and the vast world have great achievements. Why should we only be limited to a small island country like Japan?

Will Nintendo's advantages in Japan be transformed into advantages abroad? So far, I have not learned which country is proud of the trend of learning Japan, just like Japan is learning from the United States.

Does the best host sold in Japan definitely have to be recognized by foreigners? I don’t think so!

Could it be that a machine that sells well in Japan must be purchased because foreigners hear that it sells well in Japan? I don’t think so.

Japan is not the United States, and it does not have the influence of it. Therefore, Sega and Nintendo are not well-known in the foreign market, and they are on the same starting line.

Not only that, sms' big sales abroad, especially in the United States, will definitely drive its big sales in China. What do you think?

Only by not limited to the gains and losses of a city and a place, looking around the world, can we get more cities."

Shinto Nakayama said it very quickly. Halfway Takahashi heard it, he felt that this "export to domestic sales" model was extremely familiar.

Take the mobile phones that people use as an example. A large blue-green manufacturer that is also expensive to follow the celebrity endorsement route. Although the sales are good, the profits are high, it is not recognized because it has low configuration.

However, Jazz mobile phones with the same low configuration under unit money can establish a "high-end brand" awareness by holding press conferences in foreign countries, setting prices in foreign countries more expensive, and using sales in foreign countries. Its expensive becomes cheaper, and there are reasons for it to be expensive, good workmanship, high quality, same quality... and so on...

Even if there are some problems with it, consumers insult it. To forgive consumers, it has also launched a phone with forgiveness color.

This is the difference between a local brand that converts exports to domestic sales and a brand that sells only locally.

Now, after no hope of defeating Nintendo in Japan, Shirooshi Nakayama has such an idea.

The modern history of East Asia is the history of Eastern civilization being crushed by Western civilization. All yellow countries in East Asia seem to have strong disconfidence towards white countries.

Although with the development of Japan's economy, this lack of confidence in white people has turned into conceit. However, when they look down on white people, they still fragilely want to find common ground with white people and common ground with Western civilization, hoping to be accepted and respected.

Regardless of whether this trend of thought is correct or not, it is better for businessmen to make money with this mentality.

The conscience of a businessman?

Oh!
