Chapter 184: Nintendo Suspicion
"Recently, Age of Wonders has been like a clown, not only has there been no games in a year, but two movies have been made, president, can we give up the surveillance of Age of Wonders?"
In a simplely decorated, bright and spacious room, a man in a suit and leather shoes who looked to be in his fifties hung his head and respectfully reported to the old man who was playing chess pieces.
"Did you make two movies?" the old man's thin figure paused, and the white chess pieces in his hand did not fall.
"Well, the second part hasn't been released yet, but the first part has achieved great results, and the global box office has exceeded $40 million in two weeks. The middle-aged man in the suit said.
"It seems that if you look at them at a glance, they want to develop a movie, so they will develop it, the movie has nothing to do with us, half of the personnel are withdrawn, if they receive that they have a game, then say......" chess pieces, falling, the old man's voice is not emotional.
"We have integrated the data analysis of the past year, and they should be radical entrepreneurs, doing whatever they want. Today, instead of making new games, we are still gnawing at the old books, developing miracle entertainment, and now developing miracle effects, we have evaluated, Miracle Age has spent almost all of its funds on making movies, Miracle Age, no need to worry. The middle-aged man said.
"Yokoi, how did they analyze their three games?" he said lightly, looking at the chessboard in front of him.
"Almost, on the whole, there are three characteristics, cultivation, confrontation, and interaction. These three characteristics are very rare features in games today, and, after analysis, the potential of these three areas is very high, and we can dig into this aspect. The man known as Yokoi replied.
"Then let the planning department adjust it and add these three elements as the core keywords. The old man picked up the chess again and said lightly.
"Do you need to notify a third party?" Yokoi hesitated.
"There's no need, the game market is huge, what we have to do is to screen, as for the third party, let them fend for themselves. This time, the old man picked up the black chess piece and gently put it down in a corner.
"If I start from these three features, I am hesitant to develop it in different parts, or if one team is responsible for it, and the other teams are not announced. Yokoi thought for a moment and replied.
"I'll leave it to you, Yokoi, I'm sure you can solve it, right?" said the old man as he lifted the hem of his kimono sleeve and picked up the white chess piece again and looked at the person in front of him.
"Okay, I see. Yokoi didn't seem to have a trace of surprise at the old man's decision, and nodded in agreement.
Baizi, falling.
The old man in the kimono stood up and said, "Book two movie tickets, and tomorrow we will go to see the second movie of the Age of Miracles together, since Li Jun has joined the film industry, we will go and see his so-called movies." ”
"Yes, Sega seems to have been quiet again lately, and we have partially resumed our work in the communications department, which is expected to continue until Christmas. ”
"Well, since Sega has not moved, it seems that something has gone wrong, the confidence is insufficient, don't care for the time being, our own publicity is done, don't give Sega a chance, has the third party made any recent moves?"
"At present, there is a piece of news, which was not said before because it has not been confirmed, and now it seems that it should be confirmed. Yokoi looked at the old man in front of him with some uncertainty.
"Huh? ”
"According to the news that came back from our eyeliner at Sega, the Miracle Era was removed from the core facelift by Sega. ”
"Eliminate the core plastic surgery??" The old man raised his head suddenly, and the light in his eyes was great, like a tiger coming down the mountain!
"Hmm. ”
"Reason. ”
"The reason I learned so far is that Miracle Times wanted to find Sega to solve it because of a hardware problem, but it was rejected by Sega, and the two sides did not reach an agreement. ”
"Hardware problem...... The old man in the kimono walked aside, picked up the handle of an FC on the table, grasped it a few times, and was silent.
Yokoi didn't bother, he knew the person in front of him better than anyone else, and watched quietly.
Yokoi is Yokoi Junhei, and the only one who can make him so respectful at Nintendo is Yamauchi Pu, that is, the old man who holds the handle in front of him and checks it repeatedly.
"That's not right!"
Yamauchi Puichi grasped the handle tightly, and said solemnly: "Hardware, Sega is stronger than Nintendo, but Sega refuses, there are only two reasons, first, the Miracle Age is vexatious, and second, this request is not enough for Sega." ”
Yokoi nodded, yes, it is.
"If it is said that the age of miracles is vexatious, it is possible, but the greater possibility is profit. Yamauchi's eyes narrowed slightly.
Yokoi Junhei thought for a while and said: "Could it be that it is more likely to be vexatious, after all, the Miracle Age is a new company, and the average age of the entire company is only 24 years old, and the impulse to make trouble without reason is also possible."
If it were a different person, if he dared to disagree with Yamauchi Pu like this, he would have been blasted out by Yamauchi Pu a long time ago.
"I don't rule out this possibility, but my intuition tells me that the second possibility is even greater, Sega is not stupid, the whole Sega, only the Age of Miracles game is a big hit, since this is the case, Sega should not give up the Age of Wonders......" Yamauchi Pu seemed to say to Yokoi Junhei, and seemed to be talking to himself.
"Could it be that Sega has a new hole card...... Moreover, this hole card does not need to rely on the Age of Miracles...... "Pu Yamauchi seems to have caught something.
"Yokoi, call Shigeru Miyamoto, if there is no accident, Sega is likely to make a big move next. Yamauchi Pu said with a somewhat solemn expression.
"Big moves, you mean...... The host?" Gunpei Yokoi heard Shigeru Miyamoto's name, and his face was a little unnatural.
"No, not only the host, but also the third party! Since Sega has the confidence to break with the Age of Miracles now, it means that there are one or more third parties whose role and value in Sega's eyes far exceed those of the Age of Wonders. In other words, Nintendo, there are going to be traitors!"
The cold glow flashed from Yamauchi Pu's eyes, and the tone was unusually cold!
"Traitor?" Now Yokoi also knows the seriousness of the matter.
"Third place, how many can you say that you can win the miracle era now? Inform Shigeru Miyamoto, bring all the recent third-party project progress, I want to see, who dares to defy Nintendo......! The second party lineup!" Yamauchi seemed to clear his mind, and his voice was colder than the cold snap in Hokkaido!
"Second Party...... I understand. ”
Gunhei Yokoi immediately turned around and left.
If what Yamauchi said is true, then the consequences are ......
Yamauchi Pu turned his head, turned around and looked at the chess pieces on the table, and after a long time, he grabbed a white chess piece.
"Hopefully, don't let me down, life and death, sometimes, it only takes one step ......"
Pu Yamauchi put the white chess piece and pressed it down.
Bai Zi, who was already at the end of his rope, was all revitalized in an instant, and the battle situation was reversed!
After moving, you have to fall apart......
Go to dinner first, and owe the chapter......
