The east is not bright and the west is bright.
Although Yang Xun and Sun Min didn't call each other, he met a girl in the English Corner.
Within a month, the two had a heated fight.
After learning that Yang Xun was in love with another girl, Song Yunping immediately gave up her thoughts of continuing to blind date Yang Xun.
Let’s talk first.
However, Li Jie is not very optimistic about Yang Xun's new relationship.
That girl is obsessed with going abroad. With the current social atmosphere, whether the girl can come back after going abroad is another matter.
These days, the moon in foreign countries is round.
How many people would rather wash dishes, work part-time jobs, and live in basements abroad than return to their home countries?
There is a widely circulated story about a couple who sold their courtyard house in the capital and moved their family to America.
Twenty years later, he was finally worth a million dollars.
And the same domestic couple, guarding that courtyard house, easily had a net worth of over 100 million.
Although this story is a fabrication, part of the truth can be seen in it.
Although the rise in house prices in Siheyuan is also related to the hot real estate market, Siheyuan sells more for its location and feelings.
It's not an ordinary commercial building.
Even if you don't take the lead in real estate speculation, with the development of the economy, the value of the courtyard house will double.
Things are vaguely expensive.
However, although he was not optimistic about this relationship, Li Jie did not stop the two from falling in love.
It’s good to have a little more experience.
Moreover, like emotional issues, there is nothing to get involved in.
Song Yunhui and Liu Qiming are not official couples. Aren't they living a very happy life now?
…
…
A blink of an eye.
Another year.
In the new year, Song Yunhui was promoted again. In addition to the chief of the export department, he also served as the director of the new workshop.
Production and sales are controlled and the power is in control.
If it were someone with more selfish motives, they would definitely be very satisfied if they took these two positions. However, Song Yunhui had no intention of taking any kickbacks.
As a human being, you must behave righteously!
This is one of his life creeds.
Therefore, his reputation in the factory is also very good. Although sometimes he is a bit rigid, he has clear rewards and punishments.
Most importantly, he does not take credit for the work of his subordinates.
Whoever belongs to him belongs to him.
And this is also the reason why the export department has repeatedly made military exploits. Fairness and impartiality have greatly stimulated the enthusiasm of subordinates for their work.
same year.
Dongyun Electronics also launched a purely domestic game console. At the latest international game expo, it became famous with four games: Temple Escape, Airplane War, and Red Fortress.
Various overseas orders are coming in one after another.
Not only is the game fun, but at $159, it’s also cheaper than Nintendo’s Famicom.
Nintendo sells the NES on America for $199.99.
The price difference between the two parties was a full $50.
Back in the 1980s, the price difference of $50 was quite a lot.
What's more, the status of Nintendo games at this time was completely different from that of later generations. Nintendo only entered the North American market in 1985.
It has only been two years, and there are not enough loyal users at all.
Faced with the price war from Dongyun Games, Nintendo was blindsided.
Half a month later, Nintendo Games announced a promotion for the entire series, with the price reduced to $149.99.
That's right.
It’s $10 cheaper than Dongyun’s game console.
But in terms of cost, how can Nintendo compare to Dongyun Games?
You surrender?
I surrender too!
On Christmas Eve in 1987, Dongyun Games launched an unprecedented promotion.
Don’t 149!
Don’t 129!
$99.99, take home the game console!
In the TV advertising routine of later generations, Nintendo games were defeated.
$99.99?
That's not a promotion, it's selling blood!
Although the manufacturing cost of game consoles is not that high, the research and development costs, business operations, advertising and marketing, which one does not cost money?
If Nintendo follows suit, the more it sells, the more it will lose!
However, that won’t work without price reduction.
When the game console market is occupied by Dongyun Games, who will they sell their game cartridges to?
Machine, just a one-time transaction.
The subsequent game cartridges are the real gold mine. Even though the price of a single game is not high, if you add up, the profits will be considerable.
So, on the day before Christmas, Nintendo Games also announced the news of its Christmas sale.
unprecedented!
Prices new low!
Only $109.99.
That's right, it's 109, not 99 US dollars. Nintendo Game Company thinks that lowering it to this price is enough, and it will lose less money.
Besides, they entered North America two years early, which gave them a slight advantage.
Also, they have more game cartridges than SEA.
Finally, and most importantly, they sent people to China to conduct a personal investigation and conducted an in-depth investigation of the East Shipping Company.
Then, they discovered that this company was completely a grassroots team.
It initially started by imitating Walkmans, and later transitioned into gaming. It has only been around for more than two years now, and the company's employees are all Chinese.
After a series of evaluations, Nintendo internally predicted that this company would not pose much of a threat to them.
The current crisis is only temporary.
However, on Christmas Day, Dongyun Game Company suddenly announced the launch of a new game.
Contra!
As soon as the game was released, employees of Nintendo's North American division immediately bought the latest cartridge and inserted it into the Dongyun game console.
This play lasts for several hours.
When he came back to his senses and realized that so much time had passed, his first reaction was shock, and his second reaction was that it was broken.
Even a veteran like him who has seen countless games has been addicted to it for so long.
How will those who play less games react?
soon.
The market has the answer.
In just one week, 100,000 Contra cassettes were sold!
Later, people even appeared to buy game consoles to play Contra, and not just one or two, but groups of young people.
Contra is on fire!
Dongyun game console is also popular!
With just this one game, Dongyun Game Console has made a name for itself. After two years of hard work by Nintendo, Dongyun Game did it in just one month!
Like snowflakes of orders, flying across the Pacific Ocean, they keep spitting out of the fax machine.
Dongyun Games is not only popular in America, but also popular in China. Even the top leaders have noticed this game company.
In the 1980s, video games were still a very new thing.
After several searches in China, there are almost no similar companies, or in other words, no game companies with independent research and development and independent production!
Scorpion pulls daddy, only one portion!
Immediately afterwards, various sightseeing teams and delegations came to visit the factory.
Photos of General Manager Yang Xun frequently appeared in local state-run newspapers, and then newspapers in other regions. Half a month later, his photo appeared in Renren Daily.
