Chapter 516 Video games have a bright future
In a corner of the banquet hall, Chen Qi and the leader were already sitting down.
He continued to talk eloquently: "I can see many international products in Hong Kong. There is a Japanese company called Nintendo. They have produced an electronic game console Game&Watch. It is just this big and easy to operate. You can put it in your bag and use it anytime, anywhere.
You can play games.
I don't know how it's made, but I bought one and it's really fun.
I heard that the sales volume is very strong and has been sold all over the world. It seems that the number has exceeded 30 million units in a few years. If you are interested, you should be able to see it in the United States. "How is the game combined?"
"One machine corresponds to one game. They develop the game, put the game... uh, I don't understand, I'm just talking nonsense, put the game into the game machine, and then produce this machine. This Game & Watch belongs to
There is also a portable one called an arcade machine."
Chen Qi described the appearance of the arcade machine again and said: "Do you know "Star Wars"?" "Yes!"
"There is an arcade game called "Space Invaders", produced in Japan. The popularity of "Star Wars" has inspired many products to inspire and yearn for space and the universe. This game is one of them. It is very, very popular. Listen
It is said that it sold 1 billion US dollars, which is more than the top ten Hollywood annual box office combined...
Chen Qi Balabala said: "That's why I think cultural products are interconnected. I want to combine them, especially games. The production value is too high!" "Are there any similar companies in Hong Kong?"
"There is a company called VTech that makes game consoles. I have bought their products. But this thing is the unification of game consoles and games. The game console is the carrier and the game is the content. They are indispensable and difficult to make.
.”
*..”
The leader nodded and said with a smile: "I benefited a lot from talking with you. They say you are flexible in thinking and innovative, and you are well-deserved." "You said that I am brave and good at making things up, which is more appropriate!"
"You little comrade is very funny!"
The leader let out his trademark chuckle again, finally ending the long conversation. When he returned to the inspection team, his subordinates were very surprised: "What were you talking about with him?"
"We talked about video games and his ideas were very interesting."
The leader thought for a moment and said, "During our inspection, please pay attention to collecting information on the American video game industry." "Okay!"
Chen Qi did not talk about the electronics industry throughout the article, but only said that electronic games have high output value and can be linked with film and television animation to form a large system. This in itself means that his business scope does not exceed the scope.
He didn't even mention the technical level, such as analog circuits, chips, etc. He didn't understand it at all.
However, the leader came from a technical background and had a long-term vision. When he returned from this inspection, he submitted a report to the central government, clearly stating:
"The electronics industry should be placed in a strategic priority position and its development should be accelerated so that the electronics industry sector can assume the important responsibilities of the "Ministry of Military Electronic Technology and Equipment", "Ministry of Electronic Technology and Equipment of the National Economy" and "Ministry of Supply of Electronic Products for People's Material and Cultural Life"
.”
He captured the information revealed in Chen Qi's words. Video games are very popular, which means that there is a broad market, so they can be produced and supplied. If it is not available domestically, it can be supplied overseas... Our country's electronic industry system has always been responsible for the production of military products.
Out of touch with the market.
So how to enliven it?
His point of view is to "protect the army and convert the people" and let the enterprise go to the market.
Of course, he won't make a decision just because Chen Qi is so careless. The entire system faces many problems and requires detailed investigation and research, which is not something that can be solved in a short while. On the other side.
Gong Xue looked at Chen Qi who was cheerful as if he had just picked up two dollars, and asked strangely: "What have you been talking about for so long?" "Talk about movies."
"Are you talking about movies with a leader in the electronics industry?"
"He loves literature and art very much. We have a common language. He even knows "Star Wars"."
"Mysterious!
Gong Xue stopped asking if she couldn't find out. She knew that what Chen Qi was hiding must be a big deal.
Wisce
the next day.
The inspection group has its own itinerary and is officially separate from the visiting group.
The visiting group visited several landmark attractions in San Francisco, such as the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman's Wharf, etc. Everyone saw good things and wanted to buy them, but they didn't have much money in their pockets. The specifications of the visiting group were lower than average, and the subsidies were
The standard is relatively low: each person is only allowed to exchange 50 US dollars, and then each person is subsidized with 3 US dollars per day as pocket money.
Even though Chen Qi has family assets, he cannot exchange money privately when traveling with a group. However, he and Gong Xue are from the same family, and the total amount is more than 100 US dollars. He has more funds, so he did not buy anything. Gong Xue likes some trinkets and small handicrafts, and also buys them.
A hat.
She just likes wearing hats.
After a day of fun, I went to Los Angeles again.
Decades later, thanks to the dissemination of movies, television, games, and news, there are a large number of netizens in China who have never been to the United States but are familiar with several American cities. This is completely different from the young people spawned by happy education in the United States.
.
Their knowledge falls into the category of "Americans bombed Pearl Harbor", "Japan, South Korea and Singapore are all Chinese cities", "77+23=75" and "Half an hour is 60 minutes" - but happiness education started in the 1990s.
Let’s just talk about Los Angeles, one of the “hometowns that domestic netizens have never met before”.
When everyone came to this most developed city on the west coast, they thought they would see more advanced modern civilization, but they were disappointed.
Yes, the roads here are as dense as spider webs, there are millions of cars, high-rise buildings in the city center, and every family has a single family and a yard... but all of them are shrouded in smog.
"I thought the capital was heating up!
Gong Xue turned out the decorative gauze scarf and covered her face, asking: "Why is Los Angeles so dirty?"
"How do I know? Ask a foreigner!"
Chen Qi pretended not to understand and turned around and asked: "Grayson, why is there so much smoke here? Has London moved to Los Angeles?"
"There are too many factories and cars, surrounded by mountains, and the smog is blocked and cannot escape... My car has just been replaced with clean gasoline. The Federal Environmental Protection Agency requires us to meet air health standards in 1987. Just kidding! Look at it.
People all over California have given up on this damn weather. It’s not managed well!
There is no consulate in Los Angeles now, so the one we have is a furry foreigner with a big nose named Grayson.
When you first hear it, it sounds like a mouthful.
"You go to the hotel first. There will be a reception in the evening. I will pick you up tomorrow. We will visit you in the morning and watch a play in the afternoon. Will all 25 of you go?" "Go to 21!" Liu Zhigu replied.
"Oh! Do those four people have extra activities?" Grayson's smile had an unclear meaning.
Liu Zhigu, who has always been open to the public, understood his connotation, but ignored it and said with a smile: "We are going to participate in a movie promotion for 20th Century Fox."
"What movie?"
""Orphan's Revenge"!"
"ha!"
Grayson suddenly became very excited and asked, "Did you make that film?"
"Yes!"
"Well done! I went there during the premiere and it was a blast!"
Chapter completed!
