The Video Game Tycoon

!!! MACHINE TRANSLATION !!! !!! IT'S NOT AN MTL AND I POSTED IT HERE SO I COULD READ WITHOUT WIFI ON PHONE APP SK DON'T EXPECT QUALITY TRANSLATION !!! Video games are one of the important ways to entertain people in the new era. However, the Japanese Zhu Yuxing who traveled to a parallel world found that the game industry in this world was extremely sluggish, and it seemed that it had never emerged. So Zhu Yuxing decided to bring the ninth art to the world. "Mom, Super Mario 3 is out! This is my most wanted Christmas present!"

Hirohito Tomita doesn't necessarily need this order from Takeyu-Shin to survive, but if he can sign it, he can definitely make a decent living.

"Approximately how many finished circuit boards does your factory produce daily?"

At this point Takeshi Yusei asked a question out of the blue.

Hirohito Tomita had been used to this question for a long time.

The more complex a PCB is, the slower it is to produce it. But you can rest assured that we have many high-end partners at Senda Electronics, and we are able to meet the demands of our customers for products that are as complex as they are. So I think you can rest assured about the yield."

"Well, it's true that different levels of complexity can affect production, but you are really trustworthy."

In his previous life, there was no such a large factory making circuit boards in the world he remembered.

But he searched the internet in this world, it seems that Shen Da Electronics is still a very well-known circuit board manufacturer in the world, and there are indeed many head electronics companies and they are long-term partners.

If, in the future, his own video game console needs mass production, they can indeed also be competent.

"So, let me show you the circuit board schematic, can you read this if you are a businessman?"

Hirohito Tomita pondered for a moment and replied, "I'm sure I can't do this ... more complicated ones, but I can basically guess the cost and production cycle based on your circuit board schematics."

For him, a salesman surviving in a circuit board factory, simple diagram reading is still necessary, otherwise it would be humiliating to face a customer who doesn't know what to ask.

Take Youxing nodded, and then pulled out the basic schematic of the circuit board and took it to Hirohito Tomita.

A circuit board that can be made by hand must not be very complex.

The cost of replicating this is also very low.

But it doesn't matter, this is in Japan, where trying to infringe using a pirated item can even rise to the level of a crime.

Take Youxing is not at all worried about imitations of this kind.

And he only intends to use this console for a maximum of three to five years.

The original Red and White with its enhanced version had been used by Nintendo for a full eleven or twelve years before the development of a new console began in earnest.

When it came to the Bamboo Tour Star, he was going to give up decisively after getting all the dozens of the most classic games on the Red and White.

In such an era of relatively advanced technology, he did not intend to put too much effort into a console that was slightly behind the times.

In the beginning, he started making the Red and White, partly out of sentimentality, and partly because he could do it all by himself.

If he were to make a console like the Nintendo 64, or the Wii, all by himself, he would have taken much longer to do so.

At least, let the world understand games first, and then develop better ones.

Looking at the circuit board schematics brought out by Takeshi Yusei, Hirohito Tomita began to study them in earnest.

The circuit board schematics for the red and white machines were not complicated, and could even be described as somewhat overly simple.

Nowadays, there are already mature production lines for flip-top machines, and the circuit boards in flip-top machines are much more complicated than this.

Looking at such a simple circuit board, Hirohito Tomita felt a little disappointed.

That's right, disappointed.

I'm afraid this thing ... will cost quite a bit less.

In that case then, this order would really be just a small order.

At most, it would be a slight way to keep his boss from scolding him when he saw himself.

After a brief estimation, he thought that if he let their factory make it, the cost could be compressed to less than six hundred yen.

Just by looking at the chips soldered on the board, they were already more than ten years out of date, and they all looked like products that weren't very hot at the time either.

Nowadays, many chip manufacturers have piles of these chips in their factories, and are worried that they have no place to sell them, and are probably considering destroying them en masse.

And this thing, surprisingly, could have a chance to be used.

If they were to be purchased in large quantities, the cost of the chips would be as low as 600 yen, and then, with an average manufacturing cost of at most 100 yen per board, it would be hard money indeed.

But even that order was now something he was desperate for.

"Takehiro-kun, I've made a rough guess as to how much of your order you intend to manufacture?"

Hirohito Tomita already had a rough idea in mind.

If the other party proposed to produce 50,000 to 100,000, he would offer a price of almost nine hundred yen, and then both sides would haggle a little bit, and cut the price to eight hundred and fifty yen for the production of one circuit board, which was almost a better result.

And if Takeshi Yusei intended to produce in the 100,000 to 200,000 range, he could give a minimum price of seven hundred and fifty yen.

"The initial order well ... let's start with one million, of course, initially I may only be able to give a deposit, not the whole amount, and my capital needs to be slowly recouped."

Ji Tian Hirohito said understandingly, "Well well, I understand this, the deposit is enough, we can take our time to talk about it ..."

At this point Hirohito Tomita suddenly felt as if he had heard something wrong.

"Hey wait, Takehiro-kun, you just said approximately how many of these boards will be produced?"

"One million, what's wrong?"

Takenyou Hoshi looked at the other man in wonder.

Ahem!

Hirohito Tomita coughed violently on the spot.

One million?

Did he hear it right?

Is this young man crazy to ask for so many of these boards?

Can this game machine be produced for a million?

Even if it was produced, who would he sell it to?

One entertainment hall could ask for 30 or 50 units at most, and with the number of depreciations over the years, then one hall would need 50 or 60 at most.

If all the halls in Tokyo were supplied, that would be 50,000 units.

If the consoles were spread across the country, it would indeed be possible to sell more.

But that would be a long time, and at most 200,000 units would be sold.

The other side asked for a million.

This had already shocked Hirohito Tomita.

"That, you just said that you have roughly projected the price, I would like to ask how much it is exactly, okay?"

Take Youxing asked.
