Chapter 40 Do you dare to bet with me?

When Jester, under Oprah's inquiry, said that his company was about to launch three new games and two large games were being developed, the audience involved in the recording in the audience also made surprise sounds.

Many people in it think that Jester made the game called "American Squares" just for the first pot of gold. When he made money, his company would definitely transform, such as making computers.

Computers are now an absolutely emerging industry, and are favored by everyone. I don’t know how many people are pouring into this industry that seems to be full of gold like crazy.

Because this industry is indeed full of amazing profits now.

In contrast, it was a popular video game a year ago, but with Atari's collapse, it is already a dead end now. Whoever enters is stupid.

Jester looked at the reaction of the people in the audience. In his expectation, Atari's damage to the entire American video game industry was difficult to describe in words. If one word had to be used, it would be destroyed.

You should know that reconstruction is much more difficult than pioneering, especially to make players who have given up and change their minds.

Jester knew that this could be achieved overnight in just one day or two. Even a masterpiece like Super Mario, which has no shortcomings, did not sell 40 million copies overnight. It took time, and it would take a lot of time to make up for the players' past trauma.

Just tell the news about the home computer.

This idea suddenly came to Jester's mind. He actually wanted to see what he said about his company. A company that is now jealous and jealous is going to be in a dark industry where everyone is not good-looking.

Will you be so excited? Ah, this company that has lost its luck is finally seeking death without overestimating one's own ability!

Jester doesn't know, but he can try.

While everyone was still immersed in the news that he had announced that his company would continue to develop games, he said another news in an extremely plain tone that made these people even more unexcited.

"My company has fully incorporated the hardware R&D team of Atari. They are now working hard to develop a new console with performance that completely surpasses all home games on the market. Definite product information will be announced by the end of the year, and formal samples will also participate in the CESA exhibition held in Las Vegas early next year."

This time, the temporary audiences in the audience were no longer as surprised as they heard Jester talking about the new game before. The expressions on their faces gradually turned into shock. At the same time, a buzzing discussion sounded. Despite the chaos, Jester could still hear their similar arguments roughly.

"He's crazy!"

"Has he forgotten Atari?"

"It's not that you're overestimating your ability if you succeed in making a game!"

"They are seeking death!"

"In this market prospect, it's fine to make arcade games, but they dare to make home computer games?"

Such things.

Oprah didn't expect this to happen. She looked at Jester in surprise. Although she didn't know much about this, she still knew that if she only developed games, she would not have invested too much. Even if several games failed in succession, she would not have lost too much. After all, you can't create thousands of arcade machines in advance to put them in stock.

But home use is different. Home computers face players, and game cartridges face players. At least one must reserve more than 100,000 units before they can be sold. What is the concept of 100,000 units? If it is produced and cannot be sold, it will be a loss of at least tens of millions. In addition, at least four or five games accompanied by game consoles, calculated based on 100,000 copies of each game, that is 400,000 or 500,000 copies.

You know, it is rumored that Atari had just buried it in the landfill in the desert of New Mexico for only 790,000 game cartridges.

A giant like Atari can't bear such losses, let alone a company that has just been established but only has one big-selling arcade machine?

She wanted to persuade Jester, but she thought that her relationship was not so close, so she was a little difficult to speak for a while.

Jester also noticed Oprah's strangeness. He still had a good impression of this talk show girl who became famous in the future. He said directly: "It's okay, I know what I'm doing. The slogan I shouted when I was recruiting was to make the best games. With the slogan to revitalize the electronic game industry, and the big sale of "American Cubes" has attracted this group of the best game designers in the United States. They gathered around me with their love for electronic games. As a person who loves electronic games, and at the same time, they really want to revitalize this industry, I can't let them down, nor can I let myself down. And..."

Jester paused, glanced at the audience buzzing and discussing below, smiled, and his tone became extremely confident, "Ms. Oprah, are you so sure I will definitely fail?"

After hearing what Jester said, she also showed a bright smile. She could see a familiar look in Jester's eyes, just like her vow that she had vowed to be the best host and no longer be mocked by her male colleagues and discriminated against. She was as firm as a piece of steel that had been tempered for thousands of times. So she no longer insisted on her previous thoughts. Since the other party was full of confidence in what she wanted to do, why should she worry about it?

"I wish you success."

"I borrow your good words."

Jace nodded, without continuing to say too much.

When the voices of the audience below gradually disappeared, the interview continued, but no matter what questions asked below, it would not cause the shocking news that Jester suddenly announced that he was developing a brand new game console that would enter the destroyed home game console industry.

This dullness lasted until the end. When Oprah suddenly said that she had received a videotape of a new game released and trial party held by Mars Entertainment a few days ago, it attracted the attention of the audience.

They were also very curious, just so arrogantly said that he wanted to revive the powerful video game Jester, and what was his new game.

However, they may have disappointed them. There is no specific game introduction in this videotape, but mainly the grand occasion of the trial party. There are only a few shots for the specific game scene.

However, the players interviewed all praised the three latest games of Mars Entertainment, and interviewed more than a dozen people in a row, from teenagers to young people in their twenties, including adults in their thirties.

They actually consistently evaluated these three games, although the gameplay was different, but they were all games that were not inferior to American Squares.

This made these audiences in the audience unable to sit still. It was not inferior to "American Square"? One "American Square" made Mars Entertainment sell nearly $100 million in sales. Three games that are not inferior are worth it. Isn't it going to sell another $300 million?

It's simply nonsense.

How can the US dollar be so easy to make? Do we Americans really think that they are stupid and come in a hurry?

This video is fake at first glance. The people in it are also looking for actors. Everything in it is directed and acted by Mars Entertainment. Otherwise, how could they just let the game reveal a few shots that they can't understand the game at all?

This is the hype of nakedness!

Especially when the recorder of this videotape said that some players who were still unsatisfied after trial and spent money to acquire the license plates in the hands of others and went in again to experience it, and the price rose directly from fifty dollars to one hundred dollars, the audience even showed an angry look.

This video tape is insulting their IQ!

"Damn yellow-skinned monkey! Are you a liar?" Finally, one audience member couldn't help but cursed fiercely. After that, the word "liar" spread throughout the audience like a signal. More than 100 audience members in the audience looked at Jester with fierce eyes, and then shouted at the liar together.

There were even a few who stood up, as if they wanted to come forward and use their flesh to educate Jester's previous arrogance and this time's deception.

At this time, even Oprah showed a look of panic. She had never encountered such a situation before. She also knew that the video tape was recorded by a colleague of ABC. After watching it in advance, she had aroused doubts. However, after she contacted ABC's Jack Aston, who was in charge of this outdoor interview by phone, the other party's answer shocked her.

“More popular than the videotape you see.”

This is nothing. What's serious is the words of the yellow-skinned monkey before. This is racial discrimination of naked-nakedness, not to mention that she is a black man, and she hates it even more deeply.

"Ha ha……"

Just as Oprah wanted to stand up and drink to stop the noisy scene, Jester laughed loudly.

He looked at the already angry audience with some disdain and said in a contemptuous tone: "Even if you say I am a liar, you have to see how these three games are discussed first."

While saying that, Jester pointed at the strong white man who had just called out the word "Yellow Monkey and Liar". He still had a faint smile on his face, but there was a hint of coldness in his smile, "Dare you ask this gentleman, can you tell me your name?"

The white man looked at the same flushed face around him, and the angry crowd seemed very brave. He spoke his name loudly without hesitation: "Henry Stuart, my name is Henry Stuart, what do you want?"

However, this time he did not say the words racist again, and he also knew that just by relying on the discriminatory words that he had before was enough to make him bother.

In the United States, racial discrimination is something that can be done but cannot be said.

This is a taboo.

"It's nothing. Since you say I'm a liar, do you dare to make a bet with me? If anyone loses, he will run around the Chicago Art Museum three times naked. The whole process will be broadcast live to the whole United States - don't worry, I will pay for all the live broadcast." As he said, a malicious expression appeared on Jester's face, and his eyes were filled with cold light when he looked at the white man.

Then the white man named Henry Stuart was like eating a fly and couldn't say a word. He looked at the people around him and turned his eyes to him. He didn't want to retreat at this time no matter what.

But, obviously, his aura was not as strong as before. He was silent for several seconds before he started to speak loudly and shouted fiercely, "I want to know what you are going to bet first!"

"It's just that you say I'm a liar. In this way, I'm going to do a press conference and trial tour in Chicago, and I'll buy this time to live broadcast across the United States. If my three games can't cause a sensation in Chicago, then I'll lose. If it causes a sensation, you lose, what about it?"

Jester grinned, revealing his white teeth, his smile seemed bright, and his expression in his eyes seemed to have not changed at all from before, but he was surprised to reveal a chill that was unconcealed.
