Chapter 70: Why Make Video Games?

As an important sales place for electronic products, Akihabara is filled with countless people coming and going every day. There are hundreds of people of all kinds, and there are many people, and there are all kinds of people. Lin Yan can see a lot of strange people every day. These strange people, each with their own strangeness, there is such a person in front of him.

"Little brother, can I ask you a question?" Lin Yan saw a person holding a notebook and looking like a reporter asking him.

"What's the matter?" Lin Yan looked at the person in front of him vigilantly and replied. Don't think that the people of this era are so pure. Who knows if the person in front of him is a serious person, a journalist, and not the kind of intelligence trafficker who makes a living by collecting personal information.

I don't know how long the profession of intelligence trafficker has been born. As long as there are people, there are them. If they want to, they can investigate all kinds of information about a person. It's not just age, gender, position, these basic things. Even a gentleman's small ** can be investigated clearly whether it is placed upwards or downwards. Of course, they have always been secretive about the source of this information.

"I've heard that video game arcades first appeared in Akihabara, do you know where the first video game arcade was placed?" The big brother in front of him asked Lin Yan very sincerely.

Lin Yan looked at this person and asked not his own ** question, but about the first video game arcade machine.

This person can't be here for a pilgrimage, right? Lin Yan thought. Don't think that there aren't such boring people in this world. Yes! Absolutely! And no less! There are people who can sell their organs to chase stars, why don't people come to see the first video game arcade machine?

"I know, come with me. Haven't been to Akihabara to play arcade before? Lin Yan asked as he led the way in front.

In the end, for this kind of questioning, you should tell where to go and let him go by himself. However, today's Lin Yan is also idle, and looking at the person in front of him, he doesn't look like a bad person, and the place he wants to go is not a place with few people. What's more, in his trouser pocket, he still has a black and hard one. Even if the person behind him has any bad intentions, he can instantly make him incapacitated.

However, if it is a gang, it is a bit of a problem. Lin Yan suddenly remembered that he forgot to change the battery of Hei You Hard last night, and he didn't know that the current power was enough to put down a few people.

The little brother with the notebook said, "No, it's the first time I've come, and I usually play arcade machines, and I play downstairs in my company." ”

"Well, that's right. If you've always come to Akihabara to play arcades, you'll know where the first video game arcade was. Lin Yan stopped and said to the little brother behind him, his hand pointed far away, pointing to the Amano Electric Store in the distance, and he said, "That's it, I'll take it here with me, you can see it yourself." The first video game arcade was there. ”

Along the way, Lin Yan's performance can be described as a few words of light and light, and he did not boast about himself at all, saying that the first video game arcade machine was made by me. Young man, the arcade games you play now are most likely to be made by your brother. It's like video games and arcades, which have nothing to do with him. He was just a bystander, a very ordinary passerby, introducing some common knowledge about video game arcades to the little brother in front of him.

The little brother holding the notebook also felt slightly surprised. He didn't expect that this Akihabara was different, and if he casually asked a passer-by for directions, he could hear that he had such a high opinion on video games. This gave him the illusion that he had entered Akihabara, as if he had entered the tiger's den in Longtan. It's not that it's dangerous, but the people around you, whether it's a dragon or a tiger, are all that kind of strong existence. Well, in a word, it is also a rare existence in the video game world.

"Thank you." The little brother sincerely thanked.

"No thanks." Lin Yan waved his hand and did not take away a single cloud.

Lin Yan just now was Lin Yan who had just finished school, and before he stepped into the house, he was asked for directions. When he got home, Lin Yan said hello to his father, who was not repairing electrical appliances but watching TV. Then, he went upstairs to put down his schoolbag and began to sort out his rough and hard technical materials.

The black and hard electric baton, an important component, is a high-voltage pack and a battery. The high-voltage package is quite high, in fact, it is several capacitors packaged together to increase the voltage. The battery should be classified in the category of materials science, although the technology used by Lin Yan in his own hands seems to be a little outdated. But this is in his eyes. From the current point of view, the battery handmade by Lin Yan is definitely a battery solution with great commercial practical value.

Lin Yan just wanted to sort out the relevant information of these two parts and then hand it over to the boss of Kagawa. Of course, not all of them were handed over to Boss Kagawa without a trace of reservation. He wanted to pick out some of the more important points, but would not leak the key technical points, and give them to the Kagawa boss. Let him do a feasibility report, and then decide whether it is suitable for him to cooperate or not. As long as all this goes well, the small black and hard electric batons will appear in the Japanese market.

It didn't take too much time for Lin Yan to write down this information. Then, he wanted to write down all the insights he had about materials science in his "rebirth notebook" these days. These days, he feels more and more that to build a high-performance video game console, it needs not only excellent design, but also the support of various materials.

If the design is in place and the development of materials cannot keep up, then the problems that arise are like what happened to Leonardo da Vinci. He has designed too many machine drawings full of artistic sense, but until he left the world, the drawings in this world are still just drawings, and have not become real machines. That's the material, the sadness of not keeping up with the design.

Lin Yan didn't want to repeat this mistake, he wanted to open his horizons. From the perspective of the entire industry, it is used to observe the development of the entire industry. When necessary, dedicate your strength, in terms of materials, contribute your own strength.

As is customary, he fears that his memory will become more and more unreliable as time goes on. Lin Yan still had to write down everything he could think of in his small notebook. At this time, he remembered a sentence when he was in elementary school, the teacher always muttered, a good memory is better than a bad pen.

With the passage of time, the memory in the brain will inevitably be deviated, but the words written down with pen and paper will not change.

Just when Lin Yan was writing happily, his father's voice came from downstairs, "Lin Yan, someone is looking for you!" "Daddy Lin has always called his son by his name like this, instead of calling him a son or something.

"Good, good!" Lin Yan hurriedly answered twice and walked downstairs.

Lin Yan belongs to the kind of people who do not have a very wide social circle and are limited to a limited number of people. He also wondered who would come to his house to find him.

"You?"

"You?"

Lin Yan, who walked downstairs, and the people waiting downstairs, all asked the same question.

That's right, the person Lin Yan saw was the little brother he had just shown the way.

"You are Lin Yan?" The little brother who was still holding the small book in his hand asked.

"Yes, I am. What are you looking for me? Lin Yan replied smoothly, and at the same time, he was also a little puzzled. Could it be that I am looking at people wrong? This seemingly harmless guy is actually an idle intelligence officer? Thinking of this, his heart became a little vigilant. As the saying goes, good things don't come to the door.

"Hello, my name is Motoyasu Iwamura, and I'm the editor of Nebula magazine. This is my business card, please accept it. This person named Iwamura Motoyasu respectfully pinched the two names of the business cards with both hands, hunched his arms forward, and handed them to Lin Yan.

Lin Yan looked at the words on the business card, there were not many words, only wrote ""Nebula" editorial department, editor, Iwamura Motoyasu. These words.

Lin Yan believed that this business card was real and recognized the identity on the business card. He began to wonder why he had found himself again.

That's right! Didn't the squad leader ask himself to write an essay on "The King of Campus Science Fiction"?,Wouldn't he come to find himself?。 That's not right. This is a nationwide essay competition, and my own story is not written to be earth-shattering. The editor of the magazine should not be idle, so come to his own house to find himself. What's more, if you're looking for yourself, why bother asking where the first video game arcade machine was. There's got to be a cat here!

Human mental activities are complex and complex. Although Lin Yan thought about it a lot, the real time did not pass quickly, like a stream, flowing slowly.

"Well, I know, my name is Lin Yan, and you seem to know my name just now. What are you looking for me? Lin Yan replied politely. I'm a little sorry, but I'm still a student and I don't have a business card to be able to pay you back. Here's a business card for my store, and if you want to find me, you can call the number above. Usually when I'm at home, I can pick it up. If I don't get it myself, it's possible that I'm not at home. ”

Lin Yan spoke for a long time, and what he said was almost all nonsense, what he wanted to express. It's nothing more than your business card I received, I'm still a student, I don't have a business card, this is my family's business card, if you have something to find me, please contact here.

Iwamura Motoyasu didn't think what Lin Yan said was so verbose. In fact, most people talk like this on a daily basis. A concept that can be described in a simple and clear way has to be carefully explained many times before it can be explained.

After all, when we usually communicate, we simply let the subconscious mind process the language, and it is impossible to be concise and thoughtful.

However, Lin Yan's visit this time is a special case. Because, he did it on purpose. Deliberately pretending to be very simple, very stupid, very white, very sweet, very stupid and sweet.

Showing weakness most of the time is an act that can protect oneself.

"Well, got it. That one...... I didn't expect you to be Lin Yan. Excuse me, did you make the first video game arcade machine by hand? Motoyasu Iwamura asked.

"Who told you?" Lin Yan didn't answer yes or no, but first asked who said to him. Because, this kind of thing is actually a relatively secret thing, although Lin Yan did not tell Boss Amano not to reveal his information to anyone. However, Boss Amano also knows what to do.

In this way, he is really the editor of "Nebula". Lin Yan will believe that Jiang is still old and spicy, no matter how stupid the old man usually looks, he has his wise side. It's not about IQ, it's about a long period of experience.

"The boss of Amano." Motoyasu Iwamura replied. He suddenly felt that it was a little difficult to talk to the high school student in front of him who had just shown him the way, and this feeling was very subtle, just like when he faced the editor-in-chief. Could it be that the high school student in front of him is as powerful as the editor-in-chief?

Motoyasu shook his head, he didn't think so, he felt that a high school student, no matter how talented and intelligent, even if he could make a video game arcade, he would not have the momentum of the editor-in-chief.

"Well, got it. If you have something to ask, I'll listen. Lin Yan smoothly controlled the rhythm of the conversation in his own hands. This is a subtle and small trick, and I can't say how powerful it is. But at least when negotiating with people, you can give yourself the initiative and suffer less losses.

To be honest, such a small skill was learned by Lin Yan from Chang Ze. Of course, this was not taught to Lin Yan by Chang Ze, but he figured it out little by little from the process of communicating with Chang Ze.

Why do some people seem to be able to take out almost all the information of another person by saying a few words, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is nothing more than a conversation technique.

Although Lin Yan said that he was not that powerful, when he was fine, it was also beneficial to the brain to think about these things a little. At least not to let yourself get Alzheimer's too soon.

Well, it's better to add a life category to the "Rebirth Notebook" and write all these tips for daily life. These are all precious treasures in life.

Iwamura Motoyasu didn't seem to sense the faint impoliteness in Hayashi's words, his tone was more respectful, and he asked, "Why did you make a video game arcade?" (To be continued.) )
