Boss Jia was keenly aware that the biggest obstacle preventing players from changing their game consoles was the old GB handheld game consoles. So, the way to win more sales was very simple. Just get rid of these old GB handheld game consoles!
So, in just a short week, tens of millions of GB handheld game consoles were recycled to the Daqian. Then, they became the Qianjiban game consoles.
Of course, in terms of cost, the Daqian didn't make any money. First of all, the GB handheld game consoles that were exchanged for new ones were directly sold by the Daqian at a price of 1000 USD per ton. There was no value in reusing them.
Secondly, although the Daqian's cost control ability was very strong, the actual production cost of the Qianjiban was about 100 USD. Excluding the tax costs and the profits of the distributors, there was basically no more profit if they sold it for 149 USD.
But overall, the Daqian actually made a profit. Even if it was 149 USD, they could still make a profit of a few dollars. That was enough.
More importantly, in this way, a large number of GB handheld game consoles players in the market directly became Qianjiban players. This was the most cost-effective thing for the Daqian.
So, when Yamauchi inadvertently learned about the Daqian's plan to exchange old consoles for new ones, he was so angry that he vomited blood on the spot again. He didn't have much lifespan left, so he wasted a lot of time.
Throughout September, the Daqian also set an unprecedented sales peak. They sold a total of 18 million Qianjiban consoles. In addition to the 8 million sold in August, the total sales had reached an astonishing 26 million units. This also caused the steam game store to run out of stock for the first time. Even with the Daqian's production capacity, they couldn't meet the astonishing sales of 18 million units a month.
However, the Daqian's handheld game console storm didn't end. The upsurge of old consoles for new ones hadn't passed, and a new upsurge came again.
The movie version of Pokemon, which created a box office miracle in the past, was about to release a second movie. Once this news was released, it immediately became a hot topic in the entire society.
Last year's "Pokemon: Overachiever's Attack" was a huge success and the audience's love for it was something that no one expected. What made them even more surprised was that only a year later, the second "Pokemon" was released.
Of course, no one would have thought that in the future, Pokemon would release its own movie version every year.
The audience had high expectations for the movie version this time. Although the TV animation of "Pokemon: Orange Islands" had already been broadcasted for a few months, the mystery left behind in "Pokemon: The Movie Version" had yet to be solved.
Xiaozhi, who had died in the battle between Overachiever and Dreamscape, was sent to a mysterious world by Dreamscape and Overachiever. Then, a mysterious Pokemon named Phoenix King appeared. After that, there was nothing else.
Therefore, everyone was very curious about the plot of "Pokemon: Orange Islands". However, the f * ck was that when "Pokemon: Orange Islands" started, Xiaozhi had already appeared on the shore. According to Little Gang and Little Xia, Xiaozhi returned to this world with Pikachu accompanied by a golden light.
Where did Dreamscape go?
Where did Overachiever go?
The audience was scratching their heads anxiously, but the TV animation had no intention of solving the mystery at all. This made the audience very unhappy and puzzled.
Now that the second movie version was about to appear, it seemed that the previous doubts would be answered in the second movie version. Of course, the audience's interest was high.
What made the audience even more interested was a legend about the Phoenix King!
This legend was released by Boss Jia himself. Boss Jia participated in a United States TV program. In the program, Boss Jia admitted that there was a Pokemon as mysterious as Overachiever and Dreamscape in "Pokemon Kim Silver". He even admitted the existence of the Phoenix King after the host repeatedly hinted at it.
In the end, Boss Jia said that the Phoenix King was like Dreamscape. It required a series of extremely special conditions to obtain it. However, the Phoenix King was not a bug. It was not given away just by clicking on it. After it was triggered, one still had to defeat the Phoenix King to obtain this Pokemon.
Boss Jia's words instantly made all the players excited. Then, countless players began to do all kinds of things, such as moving step by step, teleporting crazily, and so on.
In any case, they wanted to use the method of triggering Dreamscape in the past to trigger the Phoenix King. However, without exception, these players all failed miserably until a player from Hua Xia appeared.
Speaking of Hua Xia, although the Daqian was from Hua Xia, the sales of the Thousand Machines in Hua Xia were not very good. The reason was very simple. It was because a Thousand Machines game console in Hua Xia was priced as high as 1800 RMB.
At this time, Hua Xia people were willing to spend 1800 RMB to buy a VCD player, but they would never spend 1800 RMB to buy a game console for their children. It was impossible.
Of course, there were open-minded parents or rich parents who were willing to spend money. Therefore, the sales of the Thousand Machines in Hua Xia were not high or low. It was only around 50,000 units.
In the end, a Huaxia player managed to discover the mystery behind it.
In the map of the Orange Islands, there was a mission that all players could accept. It was called 'Cleaning the Feathers of Natural Birds'. In truth, this was a relatively boring Quest. The Quest was set in a Natural Bird Sanctuary, and there were several dozen Natural Birds living there. Players had to clear out 20 of the feathers dropped by the Natural Birds. In reality, players just had to find feathers on the ground and collect them.
However, this player from Hua Xia was a player with OCD. After he completed the mission of collecting 20 feathers, he discovered that there were still many uncollected feathers on the ground.
Therefore, this player with OCD could not take it anymore. He decided to collect all the feathers on the ground. In the end, he discovered that after he picked up a feather, new feathers would appear on the ground.
Under normal circumstances, normal players would understand that they would not be able to collect all the feathers in their lifetime. Then, they would turn in the mission and leave. However, players with obsessive-compulsive disorder were very scary. This player actually spent four days picking up natural bird feathers in the map. His bag already had 999 natural bird feathers. Then, the player seemed to have lost the map and gave up on picking up feathers. There wasn't a single natural bird feather to be found in the entire map.
Therefore, this player went to find an NPC to turn in the mission. Then, the NPC happily gave him a colorful feather. This player did not know that other players who only handed in 20 feathers would only receive a pet egg of a natural bird. There was no colorful feather at all.
After all, this player did not go online, and there were no classmates around who could afford the Thousand Machines. Therefore, he brought this feather with him all the way to a map called Bell Tower. He cleared all the feathers on his way to the top of the tower. Just as he was at the top of the tower, overlooking the entire world, he suddenly discovered that there was a pattern on the top of the tower that looked like a feather.
Thus, this student opened his bag and looked at the colorful feather inside. Then, he curiously gave it an electric shock. Thus, he was directly involved in the battle. After that, the valiant Phoenix King annihilated his Little Elves. The colorful feather was also gone.
