Chapter 492 Cooperation with Mobile Phone Developers
Can cell phones replace handhelds?
For players in parallel worlds, the answer is obvious: of course.
Because the functions of mobile phones and handhelds are highly repetitive, they are both portable devices and can play games, and now the configuration of mobile phones is already very high, and they can play large-scale games of dozens of gigabytes.
What's more, the mobile phone also has the advantages that the handheld can't match.
On the one hand, everyone has a smart phone, which means that everyone is a potential user of mobile games; on the other hand, mobile phones have a connection function and have more users. , will be more handy.
In this case, why do most people spend two or three thousand dollars to buy a separate handheld to play games in addition to their mobile phones?
It doesn't make sense!
Therefore, people in this world do not realize the possibilities contained in the handheld.
But Chen Mo didn't think so.
Mobile phones can never replace handhelds. This is not a problem that can be solved by technological development. It is an inevitable result of the different positioning of the two products.
In Chen Mo's previous life, whether it was a console or a handheld, their buttons were relatively fixed, and there must be two physical joysticks on the left and right and more than ten physical buttons.
Obviously, these physical joysticks and physical buttons are impossible to do on mobile phones, because they are completely different from the positioning of the mobile phone itself.
For mobile phones, making calls, sending messages, and using various software are the main functions of mobile phones. As for playing games, it is only one of its subsidiary functions.
Therefore, no mobile phone manufacturer will add physical joysticks and physical buttons to mobile phones that are not useful except for playing games.
It boils down to one thing: a mobile phone is not a professional gaming machine, so gaming is just a subsidiary function of it.
It is impossible for a mobile phone to fully serve the game, so for the experience of some core games, it must be impossible to achieve the ultimate.
In addition, whether it is a console or a handheld, its real vitality lies in the core games above, and some games are impossible to port to mobile phones anyway.
In other words, the difference between a mobile phone and a handheld,
It does not depend on the level of technological development, but on the different positioning of these two products, their main functions are different, so they will never be the same.
Of course, there is also such a possibility. Maybe with the development of technology in the future, people can use a virtual helmet or a pair of virtual glasses to enter the virtual game world.
If it really progresses to this level, not only handheld consoles, but also mobile phones and game devices will be eliminated.
And even if there is a new device that replaces the handheld, it does not mean that the handheld is dead, it can only be said that this new device has become a new handheld.
So from the current point of view, handhelds and mobile phones, as two devices with different main functions, can coexist. If players want to experience some professional hardcore games, they still have to use a handheld to achieve it.
The handheld computer that Chen Mo wants to design is obviously to fill the blank area in the parallel world.
Of course, since in the parallel world, there are no handheld manufacturers in China, for Chen Mo, everything has to start from scratch.
But starting from scratch doesn't mean starting from scratch, component by component.
In the era of globalization, a mobile phone often needs the cooperation of many aspects when it is produced. Its components may come from different manufacturers around the world, and real developers only need to provide design solutions.
Even some R&D business association design solutions are bought, and the mobile phone can also be made, as long as you can sell the mobile phone.
Handhelds and mobile phones have some technical aspects in common, so Chen Mo considered contacting some reliable mobile phone developers in China directly.
Two days later, Lin Xiao handed over a report to Chen Mo.
"Store manager, this is the inspection data of some mobile phone manufacturers. I contacted some people in the industry and talked with the senior management of these companies. The general situation is written in the report materials, you can take a look."
Chen Mo nodded: "Okay, hard work."
He carefully looked at the inspection materials of these mobile phone manufacturers.
Basically similar to the previous life, there are many brands of mobile phones in this world.
The development of domestic mobile phones is very good, even better than Chen Mo's previous life. Even in some technical levels, it has completely surpassed the previous life.
After all, there are many black technologies in this world, and it is normal to surpass previous lives.
After careful selection, Chen Mo chose a mobile phone developer called Lehui.
This mobile phone developer called Lehui is also an emerging developer that has only emerged in recent years. Compared with other established developers, their main selling points are: high cost performance and linkage with popular mobile games on the market.
The various mobile phone models they have carefully designed are all made for popular mobile games on the market. A thousand yuan machine can bring a certain popular game on the market, and a high-end machine of 2,000 yuan, 3,000 yuan, or even 5,000 yuan has corresponding popular mobile games.
That is to say, if you want to play a certain popular game, choosing a mobile phone with the corresponding price of Lehui is the most cost-effective choice, which is cheap and easy to use.
This marketing strategy helped Lehui quickly occupy the market of young people. At the same time, Lehui mobile phone has a good reputation among game enthusiasts.
In fact, it can be seen from the name Lehui. "Le" is to bring joy to everyone, and "hui" is more affordable, and it highlights the characteristics of this mobile phone in terms of playing games and cost-effectiveness.
Chen Mo chose this mobile phone developer. On the one hand, he felt that they had a more sensitive sense of smell in the game industry, and communication on many issues would be smoother; on the other hand, he also felt that they could control costs very strictly. , it would also be a more helpful thing.
Soon, Chen Mo contacted the relevant person in charge of Lehui, and made an appointment to go to the headquarters of Lehui three days later to meet.
The founder of Lehui is Zhou Jiangping.
In the domestic industry, Zhou Jiangping is also a very famous figure. He himself is a technical background, and he is different from those founders who like to fool people and deceive investment.
Many people think that Zhou Jiangping is one of the more down-to-earth entrepreneurs in China.
Of course, for Le Hui and Zhou Jiangping, they were very surprised that Chen Mo could contact them.
In the domestic game industry, Chen Mo's Leiting Interactive Entertainment is already one of the giants, and it is itself a very influential game developer and distributor.
Moreover, Lehui mobile phones were originally aimed at young people and are closely related to the mobile game market. As the best mobile game designer in China (there is none), Chen Mo is obviously worthy of Lehui's great attention.
