Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

Before, everyone saw that the game market was booming and it was easy to make money. At the beginning, the profit was not bad, so they all rushed in.

The profit-seeking nature of capitalists is the same everywhere, so that the market in Xiangjiang has the same trend as the market in Laomei, and all kinds of fake games flood into the market without thinking.

The plate in Laomei’s market is big enough, and there is still room for buffering. The market in Xiangjiang is small, and if there is a problem, it will be exposed immediately.

As early as last year, after Wanwan issued a game ban, there were problems with the production and sales of game factories in Xiangjiang.

It can be said that Yang Chen cut in at this time, it was really just right, not too early, not too late, just when everyone couldn't hold back, he jumped out to harvest a wave of leeks.

If it had been earlier, at the beginning of the year, everyone still had hope for the game market, then in the next few months, a group of brainless people would flood into the market, and everyone would really be desperate.

There were several game factories in Xiangjiang before, but they closed down as soon as they opened. After the production equipment was shipped from Japan, let alone orders, they didn’t even have the money to run them.

Banks are undoubtedly the institutions that understand the market best. Funds from various industries flow in and out of their hands every day. Which industry is booming and which industry is in a downturn? Banks can clearly understand through data.

Like Wanwan, Yang Chen bought the game factory in Xiangjiang through the bank, and asked the two giants HSBC and Standard Chartered to help him buy and negotiate the price.

Most of the game companies in Xiangjiang are OEMs, and they don't have enough background. They are not like Sega and Nintendo, which have a pivotal position in the game market. He doesn't need to negotiate with those people in person.

As for the establishment of personal connections, he didn't climb up from the bottom, with the support of the charter king and Huo Daheng, etc., does he need to establish any personal connections with those people who are about to go bankrupt?

there's no need for that

The game company has nothing to say for now, Xue Yufei briefly introduced it to Yang Chen, and then jumped to another matter.

"Chen, PolyGram transferred a record bonus yesterday." Xue Yufei had a strange expression when she spoke, so she couldn't tell the details.

Yang Chen didn't notice Xue Yufei's expression, he opened his mouth to eat the fruit that He Chaoqiong handed to his mouth, and said vaguely: "Oh! Finally, there is a dividend."

Xue Yufei rolled her eyes, "PolyGram said that the dividends from Europe have been transferred to YAA with your approval. This time, the dividends from the United States are from Japan and Southeast Asia, because they are too scattered. , it will take a while..."

Yang Chen blinked his eyes after listening, and said, "Tell me, how are my two records selling in the United States?"

"As of NO.20, Chen, your two albums in the United States have just exceeded 4000 million copies, and each album is priced at fifteen dollars. According to the sharing agreement between you and Polygram, they transferred a total of 2000 million Great dividends."

"Hey, are there so many?" Yang Chen was startled when he heard that his record had a bonus of 2000 million in the United States.

Although the Xiangjiang media has been reporting how popular his songs are, and reposting foreign reports about him every once in a while, he never thought that his two records would be silent, and they would be released in the United States. Sold 4000 million pieces of huge data.

'How long has it been? '

This is simply eye-catching.

He Chaoqiong wasn't too surprised, obviously got the news from Xue Yufei early, and said with a smile: "Ah Chen, you made a lot of money this time."

Hearing this, Yang Chen rolled his eyes. Not only was he not happy, but he looked heartbroken, "It's a loss, it's a loss. I knew that when I signed a contract with PolyGram last time, I asked for more points..."

Xue Yufei: "-_-||"

He Chaoqiong: "..."

In other words, what Yang Chen signed with Polygram is to share the unit price of each record, and how many copies Polygram sells, it has to be calculated according to the [-]% share. There is no need to consider the cost of the record and the cost of sales.

To be honest, although Polygram made money this time, it was not as much as Yang Chen thought. In order to open up the American market, Polygram promoted various fancy promotions for Yang Chen. The promotion fee alone consumed all the profits. net.

This time, Polygram didn't think about making money at all. Relying on Yang Chen's records and taking the opportunity to open up the American market was what Polygram wanted most.

Therefore, this time, apart from PolyGram eating a piece of meat in Europe, not only did the US side not make money, but it also paid a lot of money.

Xue Yufei didn't worry about whether Yang Chen was losing money or making money. Xue Yufei looked at Yang Chen expectantly, "Chen, do you think about releasing another record next time? Polygram said that if you are willing to release another record For a record, they are willing to sell it for you, and only charge [-]% of the profit."

"Release another record?" Yang Chen heard that, although he was a little cautious, after all two records, there will be [-] to [-] million US dollars in the account.

But when I thought that if the game became popular in the future, I would earn much more money than the record, so I dismissed this idea.

Yang Chen waved his hand and said, "Forget it for now, there are a lot of things to do next, let's talk about the record release later."

Plagiarism is a job, if you do it too much, it will become addictive. This year, two records have been released, and any more will be a bit too much.

Chapter 374 Orange Technology

Seeing that Yang Chen had no intention of releasing an album, Xue Yufei frowned, and said seriously: "Chen, I think you can release an album by the end of the year."

"What?" Hearing this, Yang Chen looked at Xue Yufei in puzzlement. He didn't understand why he, a big wife, always wanted to make records by himself. Could it be that he was addicted to listening to music.

In the previous memory, the other party didn't have this problem.

Seemingly understanding Yang Chen's thoughts, Xue Yufei rolled her eyes, "Chen, if our game console is successfully adjusted next month, how are you going to publicize it then?"

"You know, our game consoles have not been tested by the market at all. Under such circumstances, who is willing to spend tens or even hundreds of dollars to buy a game console that is not sure whether it is fun or not."

Hearing this, Yang Chen didn't speak, but stared straight at Xue Yufei, wanting to see what the other party wanted to say next.

"If, Chen, you can release another record when the game console is released, with the drive of fans, I believe many people will buy it. At that time, we don't need to deliberately advertise, and someone will promote it for us. "

Hearing this, Yang Chen's eyes lit up.

Before, all he thought was to put his own profile picture on his game console, and then spend a lot of money on advertising to attract the attention of his fans.

From the beginning to the end, he never thought of releasing a record to drive his own unknown game console.

Now after Xue Yufei's reminder, he came to his senses, 'Is there anything more attractive to his fans than releasing a record? '

Sometimes, everyone likes the singer's song, but it doesn't mean that they like the singer's endorsement advertisement. Even if the advertisement is interesting, it may be forgotten in the next second.

However, if there is a bundled sale, the effect will be nothing to say. I believe that many fans will buy the game because of his songs.

Moreover, having the channel of the record company can also save him a lot of trouble. In order to enter the US market, Nintendo in the future has spent a lot of effort in terms of channels.

Record companies and game companies belong to different industries and cannot form competition.

If he can let some profits out on the record, I believe Polygram will not refuse to lend the channel.

In this way, he doesn't have to spend effort to build channels by himself.

Of course, the contract must be signed at that time, so that Polygram will not be jealous and run out to take advantage of it.

"Yufei, come, reward one."

"No, it's all saliva..."

……

Although Xue Yufei had tried her best to fight, she still couldn't escape Yang Chen's mouth.Holding the tissue that He Chaoqiong handed over, Xue Yufei looked helplessly at Yang Chen who was sitting on the sofa in a daze.

In addition to using records to drive games, Yang Chen's mind was active, thinking about whether to make a movie again, and use the influence of the movie to promote his game console.

This is the age, the Internet has not yet entered people's lives, the entertainment industry is nothing more than TV and movies, if you want to attract people's attention, movies are a good way to chew, once the movie becomes popular, his game console can attract wider attention .
