Chapter 412: Farewell, Yamauchi Pu! (Grand Chapter)

Just when Ye Le had just taken out to deal with the price war between Lenovo and Aurora peripherals, a life and death parting was staged in the special care ward of a hospital in Kyoto, Japan...

"President, you'll be fine... Let me go to Europe, let's take back the market over there... Didn't you say that you would take us to teach this junior Aurora Games?! Minoru Arakawa said with tears in his eyes and gritted his teeth. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

But Yamauchi, who was lying on the hospital bed, waved his hand and whispered lifelessly: "I'm not the president now, can you save Nintendo if you go?" My body is no longer good......."

"Nope! I don't believe it, wasn't the president okay for the first two years? How can it be that the treatment is ineffective, now that medicine is so developed! What would we do without you! Minoru Arakawa cried out with a pale face.

"Baga Crush!" Yamauchi let out a final roar like a lion in the twilight: "Are we all out of the wild in our wayward heaven? Without me, would you lose your fighting spirit and samurai spirit? Cheer me up and wipe all my tears away! Remember to innovate and make games, port excellent works, expand our software catalog, prove yourself in front of the global release, and suppress those arrogant boys (Aurora Games)! ”

But who knows, Yamauchi Pu yelled and everyone cried even more, they knew that Yamauchi Pu might die at any time, and just now it may be the last time to hear his teachings in this life!

"It is my dereliction not to let Wayward Heaven in my lifetime, and my greatest regret is that no one has taken back the glory of the past at this moment........"

In fact, there was hope for a cure for this disease at first, but the risk was that failure of major surgery would mean death.

Yamauchi Pu knows that he has no way to retreat, knowing that he is old and seriously ill, and even ignores his own body, and wants to use his last time to bring the wayward heaven back to the top, should this be said to be stupid, or should it be said that it is awe-inspiring?

In this way, the former president of Wayward Paradise, the spiritual pillar and the former emperor of the game industry, Yamauchi Pu, lay on the hospital bed and closed his eyes in a gloomy manner, and the only hand raised fell weakly......

Drip! Drip! Drip!

As the electrocardiogram machine next to the hospital bed sounded one alarm after another, all the electrocardiogram fluctuations were zero, and the wards were surrounded by these people who had been baptized by the years and couldn't help but panic, and some people even started crying directly.

"Bastard, call the doctor!"

"President! Woo......."

.........

The day after the death of Yamauchi, the former president and current director of Wayward Paradise, the news had already spread around the world.

No one accused him of being too domineering anymore.

And no one said anymore that he was a loser.

Even CCTV News made a special report on his death.

People's Daily commented: "Even after many years, we will still remember that on the other side of the ocean, there was a "founder" of the game! Farewell, Yamauchi Pu ........"

Yamauchi Pu and the wayward heaven nostalgia once again became the focus of the world's attention, but sadly, it was at the cost of his own death.

On this day, whether it is those friends or enemies who cooperate (fight) with Wayward Heaven and Yamauchi Pu, they are given the highest respect and evaluation, because he is a person who truly deserves respect no matter what.

In the news of the day, the Japanese TV station no longer complained that he did not hold his ground and lost to Huaxia, but bluntly called him a real "samurai"!

For the death of Yamauchi Pu, the spiritual leader of Wayward Paradise, even Aurora Games rarely abandoned its previous suspicions, and hung a memorial speech on its official website, SGP on banners, and conspicuous positions on various platforms - [Farewell, Yamauchi Pu.... Thank you for a wonderful childhood

!!!

What surprised players the most was the memorial essay of more than 1,000 words published by Ye Le himself, detailing the impact of Yamauchi Pu's appointed heaven on the entire game industry and all players.

The article is full of memories and condolences to him, and the article is not very fancy and exaggerated to describe, but really invested in his true emotions.

If it weren't for the fact that everyone knew that Aurora Games and Wayward Heaven had always been "at odds with each other", players would almost think that it was written by some fanatical fan who worships Yamauchi.

This is not Ye Le's hypocrisy, but the games brought by Yamauchi Pu have indeed accompanied him through his childhood for two lifetimes!

It's a pity that there is no father and son on the battlefield, and the game industry is the same, since it has become an enemy, then you can only draw your sword against each other!

But Ye Le really thanked him, admired him, and respected him from the bottom of his heart!

Of course, there is no saddest person for Yamauchi's friends and family, as well as his heart-wrenching nature.

The wayward heaven is immersed in grief up and down, and even some people have fallen down in the confused mountain, is there a future for the willful heaven?

.......

Counting the life of Pu Yamauchi, he led Nintendo into the video game industry, launching three generations of dominant consoles such as FC, SFC, and GB, which made the entire industry recover from the impact of Atari.

In terms of industry qualifications and even spray qualifications, Ye Le and other game producers have to stand aside in front of him.

Before his death, he had left behind that "the game software of the 21st century will not be large-capacity"

"RPG players are the kind of Losers who silently play their slow-paced games in their own little dark room"

"The advancement of gaming technology is not a good thing, and I have repeated this many times, and consumers will not be interested in so-called luxury masterpieces with more advanced graphics, sound, and story.......

The most famous sentence is naturally the phrase "walk with your head", which has been quoted for decades after he said it, and even retirement can't stop this rain of bullets. Although Yamauchi's words were exaggerated, he was still quite confident at the time.

FC and SFC have encountered challenges from many companies' game consoles, but even SEGA, the strongest of them, did not pose much of a threat, even the current Sony, in his eyes at the time, was just a fledgling stinky boy!

However, the reality is cruel, Aurora Games has led the Chinese game industry to emerge, and Yamauchi Pu was also sprayed until the moment of death because of this famous saying.

Maybe Yamauchi Pu won't care about this, in the most successful years of the NDS, he has even been the richest man in Japan for a few years, how can he care about being shot or sprayed?

What he really cares about is nothing more than that in the last period of his life, others will snatch the honor that should have belonged to him and belonged to the wayward heaven from under his nose!

In fact, Ye Le said in good conscience that in the face of Yamauchi Pu, he is really ashamed, and most of the current Chinese games are struggling with how to design the threshold to increase user payment, and use daily online rewards to improve retention, in order to give more support from the channel.

And Wayward Paradise, led by Pu Yamauchi decades ago, has been pursuing "fun" games and has persisted to this day.

Yamauchi led Wayward Heaven from a poker manufacturer into the gaming industry, becoming one of the three current console game giants.

His influence on the world's gaming industry is reflected in the consoles and games launched by Wayward Heaven, and the reason for his success, and even more important for future generations, is his seemingly superficial and stubborn insistence on games.

And his core concept is defined by Ye Le as the goal of providing game development in the future.

The core idea is actually quite simple: the essence of gaming is fun!

Pu Yamauchi believes that the essence of games is fun.

He said that games are not a necessity of life, and if they are not fun, they will be immediately abandoned. The specific manifestation of fun is the four elements of collecting, cultivating, adding, and exchanging games.

There are too many examples of his view in the history of wayward heaven.

In the GBA era, Yamauchi said that he would launch a mini series of old games in the FC era and transplant them to the GBA.

At that time, the industry ridiculed that Yamauchi was old and began to make arbitrary decisions, and as a result, the market performance made these people fall through the glasses.

At the same time as launching the ported game, Ninjo Heaven produced a number of FC mini TV commercials, including the background music in the game that year, and played it in prime time, awakening the memories of many adult consumers.

The FC mini version of Bomberman faithfully ported the graphics, sound effects, and even bugs of the FC era, and sold 200,000 copies far more than the new production "Bomberman Online" on PS2 consoles at the same time.

This example was a resounding slap in the face to the Japanese game industry, which was caught up in the pursuit of sound and light effects at the time.

In the eyes of the world, Yamauchi may be an industry legend, a figure who led Wayward Heaven to a gaming empire, the number one on the list of Japan's richest people, or an old man known for his stubborn temper.

However, for the average gamer, his most important identity is the father of FC, and for the entire gaming industry, he is the driving force behind the culture that makes this industry a culture.

Without Yamauchi, it's hard to imagine what the game industry would be like today, and would Wayward Heaven have such an impact on the world?

Yamauchi's insistence on fun games rather than the hardware itself as the main profit point is how Wayward Heaven succeeds.

After that, with GAME & With the advent of a series of hardware such as WATCH, FC, GB, SFC, etc., Wayward Heaven has become the absolute hegemon in the field of home machines, including handheld computers, and Yamauchi Pu is also known in the industry for his stubborn temper and stern attitude.

After the opening of the mobile game era, Aurora Games took away the throne of the industry due to its adherence to the cartridge policy, Mr. Yamauchi still went his own way, saying that he would not refuse to come from a third party and would not chase after those who went, and put forward the famous four elements of "collecting, cultivating, exchanging and adding", which is also a classic pursued by Japanese games so far.

Although they lost the market, they kept their pride.

For a long time, the wayward paradise controlled by Yamauchi Pu was the maker and maintainer of rules and market order, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is an unrivalled authority!

His classic games are still influencing the "new era" gaming industry.

The red-and-white machine released by Rentian was once the world's most versatile entertainment hardware facility, which ushered in the era of gaming and became the foundation of the modern video game industry.

After Yamauchi's death, many media outlets, including CCTV, followed him, which is enough to show the magnitude of his influence.

And the key to his strong influence is the willful heavenly spirit he represents, and the era he pioneered, which truly established a huge console game industry, and in this sense, he and Steve Jobs belong to the same category, both of whom redefined a certain field.

The president of Wayward Heaven Hyundai even publicly stated: In the future, we will continue to keep in mind the values taught by Yamauchi that "unique is valuable" as the essence of entertainment, and at the same time, as Yamauchi once did, Wayward Heaven will continue to change its posture to cater to the times, and the spirit of Yamauchi Pu will be inherited by Wayward Paradise in its entirety.

He owes much more credit than those of the so-called fathers of video games.

The first person to invent video games was actually not too important, because according to the development of technology at that time.

The emergence of video games is already inevitable, and the people who really built this industry are the most credit, and Yamauchi Pu is this person, so he can be said to be the godfather of video games in the true sense, and the era he created will be remembered by future generations.

And he is exactly what Ye Le is pursuing!

You don't have to be the first person to discover it, but you must be the rule-maker of the industry, and upgrade the entire industry into a huge industrial chain and become a new pillar of the national economy, which is the real godfather of the game!

............

On July 23, an altar was erected at Nintendo's headquarters in Minami-ku, Kyoto, with a soft-faced portrait of Yamauchi Pu on the altar to honor the former president of Wayward Heaven.

On the same day, about 2,000 people, including Kazuo Inamori, chairman of the honorary board of directors of Kyocera, and Fumio Ohbo, special adviser to Panasonic, went to pay their respects one after another, and some of them went to the special tent near the main entrance because the venue on the first floor of the building could not accommodate it.

Yamauchi Pu is the third generation president of Nintendo, unlike in his previous life, Yamauchi Pu has been staying in Wayward Heaven until the day when his body was crushed by illness and pressure before going to the hospital to slowly recuperate, but during this time in the hospital, although he resigned as president in the face, he still did not forget to give advice to the company, and even many major affairs were personally decided by him when he was lying on the hospital bed and dying.........

On this day, in addition to those senior government officials and business leaders in Japan and abroad, many large domestic and foreign portal media also came to the scene.

At the door of the memorial service, a young man in a black suit walked straight in with a woman who looked like an assistant in OL uniform.

The sharp-eyed security guard at the scene immediately shouted, "Stop! Where's your invitation? You can't go in without an invitation! Our leader has already instructed that no one like you will be allowed to disturb the order of the scene! ”

"Yaga! This isn't here to make trouble! The current acting president of Wayward Heaven hurriedly scolded.

Then he turned his gaze to Ye Le, who had come from Huaxia all the way: "Ye Jun's uninvited arrival really surprised me a little!" But today, if Ye Jun is here to mourn the teacher, then please inside! ”

Ye Le came uninvited, naturally there was no such thing as an invitation, and he wanted to try to sneak in just now, but he didn't expect to be discovered so easily.

Now that it had been discovered, Ye Le didn't say anything, but nodded lightly to him and walked into the mourning hall with heavy steps.......

Looking at the portrait of Yamauchi Pu, Ye Le even thought about whether he would leave with regret when he was old and the lamp ran out of oil in the future.

Quietly stood in front of the statue and bowed slightly, then silently turned to leave.

"Let's go and take a look at the branch office in Tokyo."

This made his assistant Lin Qian feel extremely confused.

She really couldn't figure out why Ye Le came all the way from Huaxia to attend the memorial meeting, but why he came out in less than a few minutes.

"Ye Dong, what's wrong? You look weird. ”

Lin Qian really couldn't describe Ye Le's expression at this moment, because it was the first time she saw this kind of sadness or nostalgia on Ye Le.

Ye Le seemed to answer her, and seemed to be muttering to herself.

"It's nothing, it's just that it suddenly feels like an era has come to an end......."

Maybe Ye Le appeared a few years later, and Yamauchi Pu might be able to spend his last time in a beautiful and peaceful manner without regrets.

It's a pity that this is fate!

The reality is like this, as the so-called "natural selection", how can the wayward heaven meet Ye Le, a "hanging" person, and can only consider himself unlucky........
