Chapter 32: The Imp Propaganda Period
ps: It may be that I have a viral flu, and I have a splitting headache for two days in a row, and I feel uncomfortable even lying down. Let's start with a short chapter, not enough to make up for three thousand nights. Of course, having said that, I'll try my best......
In addition to being in charge of FFF's game and manga sales, the most important task of the Japanese branch was to find and recruit game and manga talent, as well as to keep an eye on Nintendo, Sega, and Sony in the game industry.
The content of this call was still very satisfying to Caesar, first of all, Hideo Kojima, Itagaki Hanshin and Shinji Mikami joined FFF, which were all candidates that the branch had been paying attention to for a long time according to the list provided by Caesar.
These three masters of the game industry in Caesar's memory, in the era of Caesar's memory, can be described as thunderous in the player group, even if some people who don't often play games mention "Metal Gear Solid", "Resident Evil" and "Life and Death Fighting" will say that they have heard of it for a long time.
The three of them will fly to FFF's Tampa headquarters in Florida in a week at most, and Caesar will ask them to report directly to Shigeru Miyamoto of the Japanese Game Department.
That's right, Shigeru Miyamoto is not only the head of the all-age game department, but also the head of the Japanese game department. In the future, all employees who want to be able to make Japanese games will join this department, whether they are Japanese or American.
Another piece of news on the phone was that Nintendo finally turned around and entered the arms of PC, as Caesar thought, and making PC games became Nintendo's final destination.
After all, due to Caesar's deception, the arcade industry in Japan and the United States was destroyed at its very beginning. Parents and public safety departments not only guarded the special arcade halls, but also the three or five arcade machines placed in small supermarkets and grocery stores.
Japan has even taken the legislative process seriously.
Often, several parents and one or two police officers will go to the house to conduct random inspections, and if minors are found, the business premises will be severely fined.
In Caesar's words, there's nothing to be afraid of the next generation of playthings. Even if you don't play things and lose your mind, not everyone is a genius, although everyone in this society wants to get ahead, but whether you say they are unscrupulous or shit luck, it is always the handful that really go to the top of the pyramid.
For the next generation, embarking on the path of crime is the last thing that parents can tolerate.
Nintendo after developing several arcade games. Finding that the potential of the arcade market in Japan is almost exhausted, and if minors are banned from playing arcades, who would dare to expect adults who are busy all day long to have time to play arcades?
The mass collapse of arcade halls eventually forced Nintendo to turn its attention to PCs, unless Nintendo withdrew from the game industry and continued to produce low-value-added products such as chess and toys?
This is obviously impossible, Nintendo entered the game industry from a toy company because of the high added value of the game industry.
Why are the Japanese developing the game and anime industry? As a resource-poor island nation. What could be more appealing to the Japanese than games and anime, which are like empty gloves and white wolves?
Until the world's metal resources and energy resources are exhausted, it is unknown whether large manufacturing industries such as automobiles and airplanes will be able to find cheap and huge quantities of metal substitute materials and new energy sources, so the eyes of the Japanese have been focusing on the anime and game industry and the industry that they are proud of and have put shame on small pieces.
Regarding Nintendo's actions, Caesar did not give further instructions to the Japanese branch, only saying that it would be good to wait and see.
From the rise of Atari to the time of Caesar in 2015, the annual sales champion of single-player games in the gaming industry has always been console games. Later, the rise of Steam led to an increase in sales of PC games. But that's the reason why countless indie game makers split the total sales evenly with extremely low game prices.
Ultimately. The biggest enemy that restricts PC game sales is PC configuration.
No matter how popular a game console is, it is impossible to have the popularity of a PC, but the problem is that the configuration of the PC is not uniform worldwide.
Just because a game runs smoothly on this PC doesn't mean it can run on another.
Even by Christmas 2015, no more than 10% of PCs with Xeon CPUs and 970 graphics cards were in the world, and the higher i7-4790 and 980Ti were no more than 5% in the world.
As for the "four-way titan" that players always ridicule, it is even rarer.
This phenomenon is caused by the ultra-high elimination rate of PC configuration, spending 10,000 or 20,000 with a so-called "high-configuration" PC. Within three years, it has become a "medium and high match" or even a "medium match".
In this case, except for those local tyrants whose money is blowing like a strong wind, anyone has to wonder if it is necessary to do this fashion?
Therefore, more than 90% of the world's PCs are actually composed of Chinese desktops and laptops plus various pads.
Lots of big single-player games. These PCs can't run at all, not to mention stuttering or smooth, they can't be played at all.
Therefore, the famous nomad website in China, as soon as the crack release day of the large stand-alone machine, the comment area is full of wailing, all kinds of can't run, or the complaints of the card will swipe the screen.
This is the reason why console games are always strong, because consoles are cheaper than high-end PCs in the first place, and the theoretical obsolescence rate of consoles is at least eight years to ten years, which is much cheaper than high-end PCs in comparison.
In the case of similar prices, of course, console games have a huge advantage.
So Caesar is just holding a wait-and-see attitude towards Nintendo's strategy, just like he does in the face of the development of Ubisoft and EA, and he doesn't care at all.
His FFF company is the sole hegemon in the gaming industry, and until the next generation of consoles is developed by other competitors, there is no one to challenge his position in the gaming industry.
What Kaisa is most interested in now is the three masters of the game world mentioned above, how young they are when they first debuted, Kaisa can't guess, but the idea of training a few masters by himself unconsciously became stronger.
Putting aside the attention of the Japanese side, Caesar began to fully cooperate with the world, and the promotion of "Home Alone" has become more and more intensive from the previous occasional newspapers.
Since settling his family back to Harvard, since mid-July, Caesar's closed-door studies have made time fly by, and as he is about to enter November, he has returned to Florida three times to see his relatives and two little Lori.
Every time he saw little Kailin, the little guy was so excited that he cried and cried, even if he was laughed at by little Liv.
Although it always felt strange in my heart, the feeling of holding little Kailin in my arms was simply better than ever.
If it weren't for the fact that he knew that they had a special relationship and special induction with each other, Caesar would have thought that his Lori control attribute had exploded.
After Caesar's inquiry, the English learning of his relatives in his previous life was very satisfactory.
Don't look at the age of the young, they have passed the golden age of learning, but the body that has been transformed by Caesar does not have these problems, and it will be more efficient.
His father's foundation is good, and he can communicate without obstacles. My grandparents and my mother have no problem communicating in daily life, only the vocabulary is missing.
Since everything is good at home, Caesar is relieved to take little Liv and little Kailin straight to New York.
"Home Alone" has entered the promotion period, it is impossible that the protagonist Liv will not participate, right?
But since you have to take Liv with you, you have to take Kailin, and the comparison of children is so unreasonable.
They don't care if you're doing business or not, they just look at the results.
You took her, but you didn't take me...... (To be continued......)
