Chapter 207 The Age of Adults Has Changed
China really does not lack talents, they just lack an opportunity and a chance to see the world.
Robin Li from Peking University, Lei Jun from Wuhan University, Ma Huateng from Shenzhen University and other China's first Internet pioneers are all targets of Liu Zhiyuan.
Hong Kong, Han Dynasty Headquarters welcome meeting for newcomers. Liu Zhiyuan looked at the familiar faces below and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly. All the newcomers this time have left their names in history.
"Okay, the welcome meeting is over. I hope you can fulfill your dreams in the Han Dynasty."
"Pa bang bang..."
The applause was very fierce. Those who came from China such as Jack Ma and Lei Jun applauded the loudest. The Han Dynasty was just a legendary name before, but after arriving, they really understood what the world's new gaming giant was. Only then did they learn about Liu
Zhiyuan held a unique position in the Han Dynasty.
"Now, there is an unknown person outside who is constantly provoking the Han Dynasty. It was once great, but once was once, and it is time to teach it a lesson."
Everyone knows who Liu Zhiyuan is talking about, who else could it be besides Atari! During this period, Atari was almost jumping up and down, and today’s insinuation of the elf is just a show-off.
Tomorrow, they will say that GB is a brick wall and promote their LYNX as the most powerful handheld console. They will not be able to stand it for a long time.
"Tell them, tell these 'adults' that times have changed."
"Roar..."
"Defeat Atari!"
"Defeat LYNX!"
"Our elf is the king of handheld devices!"
"..."
In a word, everyone in the Han Dynasty was agitated. They were the Han Dynasty! They were the Han Dynasty that had defeated Nintendo, and they were the Han Dynasty that had never failed. And their emperor had officially declared war at this moment, and he wanted to defeat his opponent now!
In Europe and the United States, Atari's former glory seems to have reappeared. Countless gamers are talking about LYNX, the world's first color screen handheld machine.
"Hey, Joe, are you here to buy LYNX too?"
"Of course, this is a color screen. The elves are good and the pocket elves are good, but their colors are too monotonous."
Qiao looked at the black and white game screen of the elf in his hand and sighed.
"Actually, I don't like LYNX's first-release games. They are too far away from the games of the Han Dynasty, but who cares if they have a color screen."
"..."
Jamison looked at the reports from various places and smiled with satisfaction. The situation was very good. Although LYNX's expectations did not exceed Pokemon on the major game lists, it was still second.
"When LYNX is actually released, I will rank it at No. 1 in terms of expectations!"
When Jamison was sitting confidently in his office and dreaming, his secretary ran in in a panic.
"Mr. President, the Han Dynasty has taken action."
Jamison said calmly to his secretary.
"Don't panic, Liu is a genius planner, but the LYNX color screen is right there, and he can't get around it no matter what."
Putting down his cigar, he asked with a smile.
"Let me hear how this genius saved his elf."
The secretary no longer had the confidence he had before. The news announced by the Han Dynasty was really shocking.
"Competition, the Han Dynasty announced new competition rules."
This time, Jamison paid a little more attention to it. He was not afraid of the DDR competition. It was an arcade machine, but there were also competitions in Pokemon Go, which was a handheld machine.
"What are the rules of the game?"
The secretary first handed over the brochure he was holding, and then began to talk about the competition rules designed by Liu Zhiyuan.
"The most important thing is that the Han Dynasty spent hundreds of millions of dollars as prize money for the competition."
Jamison's smile disappeared and he thought for a while.
"Publish the LYNX game screen."
We can't just wait like this. The bonus of hundreds of millions of dollars will definitely attract a large number of players to turn their attention to the Han Dynasty and the elves again. In fact, he doesn't want to release the game screen at all. He understands the advantage of LYNX very well, that is, the color screen brings everyone
Once this picture is exposed, although it can raise players' expectations in the short term, it will be detrimental in the long term, because although LYNX has a color screen, its picture expression is very limited.
"yes."
The secretary breathed a sigh of relief. The pressure brought by the Han Dynasty was too great. She felt that if Atari didn't respond, it would be bad. But neither Jamison nor anyone else paying attention to this handheld war.
I would think that releasing the game footage is asking for death.
The LYNX game screen was exposed, and Liu Zhiyuan smiled. He looked at the LYNX game screen on TV and smiled very happily. Before he even exerted any force, his opponent fell. How could he not be happy? If all his future opponents were the same.
In this way, his dream can be realized 10 years ahead of schedule.
"You are seeking death."
Minoru Arakawa agrees with this statement. Atari is seeking a dead end. Its only advantage has been wasted. It is not only a waste, but also has a negative impact.
LYNX has a color screen, but can this color screen compare to the MD? With such a small screen, what about the color screen? Can it show more color? The color screen gimmick is the biggest advantage of LYNX, but Atari can easily use this gimmick
Handed it over.
On June 24, there is still one week left before the official release of LYNX. All Atari executives are no longer as high-spirited as they were at the beginning. Because of the major game expectations list, their LYNX not only failed to overtake Pocket Monster, but fell to the third place.
5!
The first one is still Pokemon, the second one is the King of Fighters Challenge, the third one is the Pokemon Trainer Competition, the fourth one is the DDR Masters Competition...
"Han Dynasty, Han Dynasty, Han Dynasty!"
Jamison gritted his teeth and muttered that he could not accept this result. If it was just a lowered expectation, the bigger problem was the data coming from the major pre-sale points! The pre-sale volume of LYNX was declining! This is abnormal.
If people have huge expectations for something, the closer it is to a release, the crazier its pre-sales should be!
"Come up with a plan."
Robin looked at the data in front of him with a gloomy expression. It was so unexpected. LYNX's success should be a matter of course! Why is the current situation happening?
Atari's senior management looked at me and I looked at you. No one could come up with a solution to the current problem. In the end, it was Jamison who spoke.
"Lower the price. The price of LYNX is too high. We overestimated players' expectations for color-screen handheld consoles, and underestimated Liu Zhiyuan of the Han Dynasty. How dare you! Hundreds of millions of dollars were just thrown away like this."
The price of 300 US dollars was decided based on the utmost confidence in LYNX, but now, the situation is not good.
"How many?"
Jamison doesn’t know how much to lower the price. If the price is too low, if players are still dissatisfied, it will not only fail to increase pre-sale sales, but will have a negative impact. A game company that changes prices at any time will not allow it.
Players believe it.
There is too much to drop, what should I do with LYNX’s profits? The cost of LYNX is almost US$100, plus the cost of acquisition and publicity, will the world’s first color screen machine have to be sold at a loss? This must make everyone in the industry laugh.
