The final result of this creative workshop is a great success.
Regardless of the surge in the number of concurrent players, the interest in game development has rapidly increased to a new level after this time.
Zhu Yuxing felt that he could look forward to the development of interesting games by these talented people.
He has always hoped to play more interesting games.
However, this kind of thing can be done slowly. After the preliminary work of the creative workshop is completed, the rest can be completely handled by the department of the Battle.net platform, and he does not need to participate in anything.
And now he has another thing to pay attention to, and that is the development of the latest game console.
After arranging the battle.net platform by myself, the development of the new host has come to the late stage.
"Bamboo Tour, this is our final version of the game console. We have also negotiated the price with chip manufacturers. 100 million chips will be provided continuously within five years, and the price can be reduced to $270 per chip."
Zao Zao Airi Ze stood beside Take Yusei, who was holding the controller to experience the new console, and carefully introduced the features of this new game console to Take Yusei.
Now that some key technologies of game consoles have been realized, the rest is stacking performance, which makes game development more convenient and game production more convenient.
After hearing Airi Hayasawa's introduction to the purchase price of the chip, Take Yuxing just hummed and continued to experience the latest console seriously.
This time the latest console has performance close to PS4, and the performance of the original game console has been improved by a small margin.
This is thanks to today's very experienced hardware development teams.
Now these people are top talents with more than ten years of experience in game console development.
Any of these people who are outsiders can become guests of other game manufacturers.
Especially Suri Electronics, they are drooling every day staring at Yuxing Electronics Entertainment's hardware and game development team.
They have also thrown olive branches to these people more than once and invited them to join Surui Electronics.
But most of them refused without hesitation, and a few were a little moved. After all, the salary was really high, but in the end, most of them still held back and did not leave.
Because Youxing Electronic Entertainment has stayed for many years, the benefits given by Youxing Electronic Entertainment are also quite generous.
I am so used to this kind of environment, and going to a new environment for that little bit of money is not necessarily really good.
There are also some suggestions from the wives of their respective families.
These people's families are now very harmonious and happy.
Youxing Electronic Entertainment has always had no overtime policy. You can go to work and work happily every day. After returning, you can chat happily with your wife and children about the day's work, which is very relaxing.
In the society of Japan, the company Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is like an outlier.
Many people are really trying to get in now, and if they really want to leave, it's really a show of brains.
Their respective wives also tried their best to discourage their husbands from being reckless. For the sake of the extra salary, if they were not happy at work, it would be better to continue working here.
Youxing Electronic Entertainment is not about to go out of business, and Yuxing Electronic Entertainment has been thriving.
Only a small number of people who prefer to be a chicken head rather than a phoenix tail will choose to go to some small companies. No one knows how they fare after they change jobs, at least none of them have become famous after leaving Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
Take Yuxing's response to the new chip price was flat, but Airi Hayazawa couldn't help it.
"Zhuyou, don't you think the price is a bit high? The price of the chip is 270 US dollars, and the whole production cost will probably reach the price of nearly 400 US dollars, which is far more than any host product we have developed before."
Zhuyou Xing said casually: "It's not bad. This time the new game console development is what I require to achieve such picture quality, and in order to achieve such picture quality, a higher price is acceptable. Songqiao, if If it is a $270 chip, can we probably control the retail cost at around $399 in the end?"
At this moment, Matsuhashi is also conducting a remote video conference with Take Yusei.
Hearing Take Yusei's question, Matsuhashi frowned and began to think.
She is not in charge of production arrangements, but she is now quite experienced, and can basically infer the approximate actual retail price based on the manufacturing price of the chip.
"At $399, I'm afraid we'll have a small loss, about ten to twenty dollars."
"Well, that means that the first year of sales must be at a loss?"
"Yes, but the price of the chips that follow. It will definitely decrease, and you can gradually make up for the cost loss in the first year in the follow-up."
Zhu Youxing waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, the initial loss of ten or twenty dollars for this machine is nothing, and I can still pay for this amount of money. If it starts, then set the price at 399."
Matsuhashi also hesitated at this time and then said: "President, last time Suri Electronics planned to price its host at this price, and the final response was obvious, players did not buy it, they didn't like this game. For a high-priced game console, isn't the price we sell at 399 a bit too high?"
Zhu Youxing nodded: "It is indeed a bit high, but it's not really a big problem, we still have a lot of issues with Suri Electronics. It's very different."
"President, I think you need to be cautious. The feedback from players is very important. If they hate the high price, the sales will be seriously affected."
Take Yuxing is not particularly concerned. Said: "Don't worry too much about this, I know what to do."
"Then... well."
Seeing that the persuasion didn't have much effect, Matsuhashi didn't insist anymore.
Youxing Electronic Entertainment is indeed not bad at this loss, but she is still a little worried that this excessive price will cause players to rebound strongly.
The support of players is the lifeblood of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. If many players are turned away because of excessively high prices, it is actually not worthwhile.
Airi Hayazawa suddenly said at this time: "Zhuyou, in fact, we can still reduce the price of some game consoles. For example, if we sacrifice the compatibility of some game consoles and abandon some of the support for the old game architecture, we can save more money. The average cost is about fifty dollars, which is actually a good deal."
"Yes, President, I think so too. In fact, there are very few players in the old game by now, and most players now prefer this era to be cooler. Games with dazzling graphics, those old games really shouldn't continue to be supported anymore."
