Chapter 421: Time Magazine
"Ye Dong, the reporters from Time Magazine have already arrived, and they are waiting in the conference room. The pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info "Assistant Lin Qian respectfully came over to ask for instructions.
Time Magazine interviewed Ye Le, which is the most important part of Aurora Games' recent operation, and it is also a strong proof that Ye Le announced to his peers around the world that he is now the number one in the industry.
To be honest, Ye Le himself has never read the magazine "Time Magazine", but Ye Le has heard of its fame for a long time.
Even "Time Magazine" has been praised by some people in China, and if you talk about a certain person who has appeared in Time Magazine, then that person will more or less have a sense of grandeur in the hearts of ordinary people.
What's more, when they contacted Aurora Games again, they came with Ye Le as the cover character of the next issue!
"Good! I'll be right over!"
Ye Le's spirits are high, and in the history of the game industry, only the former head of Wayward Paradise, Yamauchi Pu, has appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, which is not only a personal supreme honor, but also just to promote Aurora Games and establish prestige in the industry.
Creating the illusion that CPL is the leader in vigorously promoting e-sports, let Longteng suffer a loss!
The interview went well, and Time Magazine had already taken a strong interest in Ye Le and his Aurora game, so this time I made up my mind to interview him, and I didn't miss any of the homework that should be done.
With professional interviews, in-depth analysis, bittersweet recollections, and a moderate amount of insider mining in the industry, they know very well what people like to watch and what to do to maximize the news effect.
After all, it is a well-known magazine that is sold all over the world, and Ye Le is somewhat cautious in answering questions, and every time he thinks about it before answering.
First of all, he picked up the important development history of the Aurora Game over the years, and at the same time talked about the setbacks encountered during their development period, and Ye Le seemed quite confident when he asked about the development status of the Aurora Game.
"Aurora Games is now building a complete industrial chain, and we are determined to set a benchmark for our counterparts around the world, from film and television, animation industry, live broadcast platform, large-scale comprehensive game platform... We are all constantly improving ourselves, so the Aurora game will continue to grow and develop, and its potential is only the tip of the iceberg. ”
"The handheld gaming market has been sluggish in the last two years, but we heard before we came to your company that Sony will release their new console, the PSP, at the end of this year, do you think console games can make a comeback?"
"It's hard to say yet, after all, I haven't seen what Sony's consoles look like. ”
Ye Le didn't know who would win and who would lose in this tearing battle between Sony and Wayward Heaven, but listening to the tone of this foreign female reporter, it seemed that the final ownership of this game console jointly developed by Wayward Heaven and Sony fell into Sony's hands.
Fortunately, the reporter did not continue to dwell on this issue, which made Ye Le slowly breathe a sigh of relief.
"So does Aurora Games plan to get involved in the console realm?"
Ye Le nodded.
“
Of course, console games occupy a very important position in the field of games, it can be said that countless classic games were born in console games, maybe in the eyes of the outside world, we Aurora Games are made by making mobile games and online games, and we Aurora Games never participate in the console war at international game exhibitions, and I don't deny this.
"But Aurora Games has now built a large data center, and will build a second data center next year, at least I dare to guarantee that our servers are stable and smooth, and user data storage and processing are the world's first!"
In addition, Aurora Games will also be for its own scientific and technological construction, and truly transform into a high-tech group enterprise. That's when we shifted our focus to consoles, and we didn't just make console games, but we also made consoles that were better for players. ”
The blonde reporter continued to ask: "Mr. Ye, could you please introduce e-sports! I believe many people are curious about it, and I would like to ask you if WCG is the highest-level game event at the moment?"
Ye Le replied: "Of course, our WCG is the world's most formal, widespread, highest-level professional e-sports world league, there is no doubt about this, and at the same time, this year we will also strengthen the management and regulation of the domestic e-sports industry, and then actively hold events at various levels, and strive to make fire one day become the hottest competition." ”
After all, it is his own signature event, and Ye Le certainly doesn't mind blowing it.
At the end of the interview, Ye Lejie was still unsatisfied and asked, "When will this issue of the magazine be launched?"
The other party smiled: "I don't know the exact time for the time being, but it should be released in the next issue of the weekly magazine before a month at the latest." ”
Ye Le was a little disappointed, but he was quickly relieved, after all, others also had their own arrangements, and it was impossible for him, the person concerned, wanted to see the issue of the weekly magazine with his bust printed earlier, and the magazine to which Time Magazine belonged would immediately sell it.
But the interviewer had just left for an hour, Ye Le had time to solve his doubts, looking at the latest news about Sony game consoles on the computer, Ye Le muttered to himself: "I really snatched this game console into my own hands? And the new game console is called PSP, and the name is exactly the same, what a coincidence!"
Willful Heaven regrettably gave up early in this battle, but they asked for a large amount of compensation from Sony.
After getting the ownership of the game console, Sony also named this game console PSP in the world, which is the abbreviation of PlayStation Portable, and its selling point is that it is a multi-functional handheld machine.
It has a number of entertainment functions such as music, video, and Internet access that traditional game consoles do not have.
Sony is trying to truly become the number one console company with this PSP console.
Although Ye Le doesn't know if Sony can get his wish this time, the only thing that is certain is that if there is no smartphone in this world, it will definitely sell crazy!
In the previous life, when PSP was released on Double 12 in 2004, although the smartphone was born in the real sense in 93, it is a pity to talk about July 11, 2008, Apple launched the iPhone 3G. Since then, the development of smartphones has opened a new era, and smartphones equipped with Android and IOS systems have become the mainstream.
In this world, Sony still became the owner of PSP as he wished, but today's smartphones are almost one per person, and in this case, not all players will choose PSP, Ye Le can only sigh that he was born at the wrong time.
It is impossible to sell more than 80 million units in the previous life, but the price that Sony gave him for this thing is already expensive, and if it can sell millions and ten million, then Sony will definitely make a lot of money.
