This game is also very powerful in terms of video and audio, each NPC is voice-dubbed, extremely interactive, and it is difficult to find a full-text dialogue in the game.

According to Sega, this is really to make players better able to integrate into the game world. Although, limited to the level of technology, conceived and experienced, it has not reached the extreme.

But "Shenmue" has a huge impact on those triple-A masterpieces in later generations. At least, using a money-burning game has explored a way for game development, and it can be made in this direction. So, even if this game is not fun, it can even be said to hit the street, but it is definitely a game that has made a great contribution.

In contrast to traditional games, Shenmue does not use turn-based combat, but instead focuses on fully immersing the player in the game world and story.

Many of the top-level stand-alone games in later generations are pursuing this effect, movie-level graphics, and NPC dialogues are all live-action dubbing, and various cutscenes are also similar to movies.

After Lin Qi experienced the game "Shenmue", he also felt that the biggest role of this semi-finished product was not to sell well, but that he could take this game and show it to his company's R&D team, so that the company's team could realize that there was such a direction and possibility.

Even if it's not mature yet, sooner or later, the hardware of computers and consoles will be able to support masterpieces that are truly comparable to movie screens!

For this, Hayao Tanaka naturally disagrees, how is the Japanese economy, this is not the main focus of his attention, and as a foreigner, he feels that Lin Qi's way of speaking is not very good.

But this does not affect the cooperation between them.

"Mr. Lin, on this basis, it is difficult for us to talk about cooperation, for the Japanese economy, not to mention, "Shenmue" will not be limited to Japan, alas, today's Sega, no longer has the ability to expand globally, but the new venture electronics can. ”

"No, Sega's console can't do it, it doesn't mean that Sega's games can't be released globally, as long as Sega puts the center of the game on a computer game platform, such as Pangu!"

In fact, people of insight in this era can see it. Computer gaming is the way to go, after all, video game consoles aren't entertaining enough to attract more people to buy them. Hardcore gamers, who account for the world's consumer population, are not only incomparable to the consumers of TVs, but even the consumers of VCDs and VCRs.

But computer games are different, computer games are no less powerful than consoles, and can have networking, office, learning, and various powerful applications. Games are only a type of computer application, and even users who are not gamers will use computers to play Chinese Cubes.

At present, "Chinese Cube" can be called the most popular game in the world, not only because of the simplicity of this game. Moreover, this game has been adopted as the default game for the handheld and Pangu consoles of the new startup department.

Just like the later Microsoft operating system, the ancestral "minesweeper" that was given away for free. In the Pangu operating system, starting from the third generation, "China Cube" has been given away for free by default, and just the "China Cube" bundled by the system has made this game have hundreds of millions of players. What's more, over the years, this game on the handheld platform can be called a worldwide hit. A conservative estimate of 1 billion people in the world has played "Chinese Cube". The cumulative distribution of game software has exceeded 380 million copies. Moreover, it continues to skyrocket every year, because, as long as every Pangu computer sells, the cumulative sales of "China Cube" will be increased by one, and this kind of cheating general statistics will be used to refresh the record for this game, so that no game in the future will be able to challenge "China Cube" in terms of distribution.

Just from the popularity of the game "Chinese Cube", we can see how broad the market space the computer has brought to the game.

"Computer games!"

On this point, Hayao Tanaka has his own opinion, he said: "Sega has always been making video games, a good experience of a game, the big screen is naturally better, but the computer is mainly used for work, in personal use, it is also a luxury, I know that Mr. Lin's Pangu fifth-generation computer is very good, and it is also a well-deserved king, but the price of a set of consoles is not cheap, and in the short term, the host will not disappear......"

There is still a sentence under his tongue that he has not spoken, that is, the new entrepreneurship is inevitably a little too high-minded, which is to change the rhythm of all mankind.

He felt that Lin Qi should not have been born in China, but should have been born in the United States.

"This is also the reason for the failure of Sega this time, technology is king, Yamauchi Pu has long seen it, so he has seized an opportunity to achieve the ultimate in the performance and price of his console platform over the years. Sega was right at the wrong time, but if Sega launched a 32-bit console comparable to Super Nintendo, and there would be First Blood 3 and Lightning Strike, what would be the result, and what would it matter if Super Nintendo announced it a day earlier. ”

Lin Qi smiled and said, "I can say without humility that the future is the era of computers, the main battlefield of games, and the destined computer platform. Your company, failing on the console, in fact, may not be a good opportunity for transformation, early transformation into a software development-based company, the future profits may not be better than Nintendo's attempt to grasp the software and hardware together, but only the host, failed to seize the opportunity to make a computer company!"

Hayao Tanaka looked at Lin Qi with a little surprise in his eyes, he was more than ten years older than Lin Qi, and he had many opponents in his life.

Every game released by Sega was basically aimed at Nintendo, until the emergence of the new venture electronics.

At the beginning, many Japanese consumers were still disdainful of Chinese hosts. But with the development of time, this host not only replaced Atari, but also counterattacked in the computer market, surpassing Apple Computer, and wrestling with the PC camp!

When it comes to the 5th generation of Pangu computers, there are Internet applications such as browsers, TT instant messaging, starting point literature, etc., which have further shaken the world and made many people in the technology industry regard Xinchuang Electronics as one of the innovative giants in the technology industry!

"Twenty million dollars, 'Shenmue' is not impossible. Hayao Tanaka finally agreed, anyway, according to Sega's current situation, "Shenmue" can only be temporarily hidden, because there is no console platform that can carry this game now, so it is better to sell it to new entrepreneurs.

In fact, Lin Qi did not change the path of Sega, in history, Sega burned too much money on the console because of his own death, and finally became unable to make ends meet, and when he was still breathing, he finally remembered to sell software, which can be regarded as following in the footsteps of his old rival Nintendo.

As for Lin Qi's prediction that the Japanese economy is declining and that personal computers will become the main battlefield of the game industry, Hayayao Tanaka has reservations for the time being, but seeing Lin Qi's courage, he also understands a little in his heart, in the face of such an opponent, no wonder Nintendo's turnaround battle is extremely hard, and it is forced to pull several other companies.

"Okay, as for the contract and buyout plan, Ueshima will be in further contact with Sega. ”

After the two were verbally confirmed, Hayao Tanaka left.

And Lin Qi's schedule also became tense.

Because, a world-famous self-made entrepreneur like Lin Qi is also a celebrity in Japan. Therefore, many media and educational institutions have invited Lin Qi to attend some activities, it is not okay not to give face at all, at least to brush up on the sense of existence. Therefore, after being screened, Lin Qi chose the invitation to give a lecture at the University of Tokyo in Japan.

Of course, Lin Qi is not ready to give an honest speech, but is ready to pretend to be a wave of force, a wave of gods, to see the decline of the Japanese economy, and to make some warnings. Now he will definitely be disdained and slapped in the face, but in a few years and ten years, I am afraid that Lin Qi will be worshiped by others.
