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. Just play games.

I don't know how it was made, but I bought one and it was really fun.

I heard that the sales volume is very strong and it is sold all over the world. It seems that the sales volume 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 does the game come together?"

"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, and 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 unity 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 courageous and good at making things up, which is more appropriate!"

"You little comrade is very funny!"

The leader let out his trademark hehehe laughter again, finally ending the long conversation. When he returned to the inspection team, his subordinates were very surprised: "What are 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 has a technical background and has 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", the "Ministry of Electronic Technology and Equipment of the National Economy" and the "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 enterprises go to the market.

Of course, he wouldn't make a decision just because Chen Qi was talking nonsense. The entire system was facing many problems, and detailed investigation and research were not something that could be solved in a short while. 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 team has its own itinerary and is officially separate from the visiting team.

The delegation visited several landmark attractions in San Francisco, such as the Golden Gate Bridge and Fisherman's Wharf. Everyone saw great things and wanted to buy them, but they didn't have much money in their pockets. The specifications of the visiting group are lower than average, and the subsidy 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 handicrafts, and also buys them. A hat.

She just likes wearing hats.

After a day of fun, I went to Los Angeles again.

A few decades later, thanks to the spread 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 produced 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.

Speaking of Los Angeles alone, it is one of the “hometowns that domestic netizens have never met before”.

Everyone came to this most developed city on the west coast, thinking that 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 this is shrouded in smog.

"I thought the capital had heating!

Gong Xue turned out the decorative scarf and covered her face with it, and asked: "Why is Los Angeles so dirty?"

"How should I know? Ask a foreigner!"

Chen Qi pretended not to understand and turned around and asked: "Grayson, why is there so much smog here? Has London moved to Los Angeles?"

"There are too many factories and cars, and there are mountains all around, so the smog is blocked and can't be dispersed... My car has just been replaced with clean gasoline. The Federal Environmental Protection Agency requires us to meet air health standards in 1987. What a joke! Look at this damn weather, everyone in California has given up, it can't be managed well!

There is no consulate in Los Angeles now, and the contact is a hairy, big-nosed foreigner named Grayson.

He sounds like a chatterbox.

"You go to the hotel first. There will be a reception in the evening. I will pick you up tomorrow. We will visit in the morning and watch the play in the afternoon. Are all 25 of you going?" "21 of you!" Liu Zhigu replied.

"Oh! Are there any extra activities for those 4?" Grayson smiled with an ambiguous meaning.

Liu Zhigu has been dealing with the outside world for many years and understands his inner thoughts, but ignores them and smiles: "We are going to participate in a movie promotion of 20th Century Fox."

"What movie?"

"Orphan!"

"Ha!"

Grayson suddenly became very excited and asked: "Did you shoot that movie?"

"Yes!"

"Well done! I went to the premiere and it was very satisfying!"

Liu Zhigu: "??? "
