Chapter 36 The Future of Finance
Winter is coming, and snowflakes fall from the sky.
The cherry blossom trees are not at all beautiful, and there are a few snowflakes hanging from the bare branches.
When it snows, it tends to feel less cold and even a little warmer.
Because of economic reasons, the bustle of prosperity on the street has now cooled down a lot. Boys and girls may still have smiles on their faces, while those who walk middle-aged people often have a sad look on their faces.
These days, an average of 50 people in Tokyo choose to end their lives every day.
For them, there is no future. There is nothing left, and the best thing to do is to end your own life and avoid making trouble for your family.
Born to be human, I'm sorry.
Lin Yan felt that he could make a game about financial knowledge, and there was a virtual place called Financial Street, which had all kinds of characters in reality.
They all have the same identity as players on the financial street.
They can use their future as collateral to borrow a certain amount of financial street money. And their future will also be concretized and become all kinds of monsters.
The currency of these financial streets is their lives and their fighting power, and they use money as a weapon to harm others in order to make profits.
Every player on the financial street, or player, has a forced battle once a week, which is inevitable.
They have a concrete future, and they have special skills, such as the poison pill strategy, that is, the strong wall clearing, and take the poison pill themselves to avoid vicious acquisitions by opponents.
Let's make a vicious takeover. Lost in blood. This makes it possible to make a character's skills. You can also have skills like a white knight, a barbarian, or something.
Of course. In every forced battle, there will be losers. The loser can be a small defeat. It could be a big failure, it could be bankruptcy.
The consequences of each are different.
A small defeat has a slight effect, while a big failure can be the bankruptcy of the company, or the disappearance of the child that the wife is carrying in the womb. Except for the financial street players who played, no one remembered anything about the child anymore.
As for bankruptcy, it is the loss of all futures. All of them are gone, just like the fifty people who are queuing up to die every day in Tokyo now.
Their collateral is the future, and what they win is the future, and what they lose is the future.
Of course. Finance is a zero-sum game, and when someone laughs, someone will cry.
At a time when there are competitions happening every day in the financial street, the real world is also changing, that is, the economy is going bad, and there is an economic crisis.
And a certain big man in the financial street intends to use the financial coins of the financial street to save the real world.
Financial coins are black in the eyes of financial players, but in the eyes of ordinary people. But it's the same as the regular yen.
A large amount of financial currency flows into the real world, which can make the economy improve to a certain extent. Of course, a large amount of financial currency flows into the market, which means inflation.
Although it looks better in a short period of time. But in the long run, it's not a good thing. The economy will get worse.
And the villain in this game is a person who uses financial coins. People who want to save the real world.
However, his salvation was not quite right. He is unlimited in the future of overdraft, with his own financial street black card. Draw a large amount of money from the financial street.
When the money printing machine on the financial street turned, all the pets of the financial players wailed.
Because, they are the embodiment of the future, and the price of printing money on the financial street is to pay for the future.
According to the routine of the game, at this time, you need to insert one thing. For example, the black history of the villain. He was the heir to a business, and his sister became terminally ill at a time when the family business was in crisis.
If there is money, maybe there is salvation. And without money, she can only be put in a coma and wait for death.
The father of the villain, in order to maintain the credibility of the company, refuses to show his difficulties to outsiders. Because, once you borrow, you are saying that you can't do it, and all partners will leave.
Therefore, the sister of the villain has become a vegetative person.
And the villain's so-called protection of the real world is actually to protect the present, overdraft the future to protect the present, as for the future, it is too illusory, he just wants to protect the present and protect his sister.
And the protagonist is probably the one who wants to protect the future. He and the villain are also teachers and friends. At first, he also agreed with the villain's behavior, but he slowly found that the reality became worse and worse when he did this.
Fewer children means fewer futures.
Therefore, he chose to protect the future, and finally became an opponent who fell in love with the villain.
Lin Yan admits that this game project has a bit of a chicken soup meaning. It is using an illusory financial street as a metaphor for reality.
Regarding the present and the future, the villain and the protagonist are actually two factions in reality.
A faction, in order to maintain the "prosperity" of the present, overdraws the future and engages in some advanced consumption, such as housing loans and the like.
Although the economy looks booming now, in the long run, it is a very bad situation. Because, for the sake of the present overdraft of the income for the next few decades, the future will become more bleak.
And to protect the future, the emphasis is on letting the current economy land and stop giving it chicken blood. If you fly higher, you'll fall harder.
This is a story that uses fantasy as a metaphor for the future.
Actually, it's a bit ironic.
It's like a worker who has worked hard for decades, but suddenly gets laid off, and someone sings a song about starting all over again.
While the lyrics are beautiful, it's truly brutal for those who are suffering from it.
However, such a work must be there. It's impossible to really die just because you're not doing well now. One or two, maybe it's not a big problem, but when there are more people, it becomes a big problem.
When Lin Yan put forward this plan at the weekly meeting, some people were in favor and some were against. Because. There are some problems with such a theme.
Chiba Games is an all-age game company. Such a game seems a little too esoteric. It's not very suitable for those elementary school students to understand.
"That's why I've made the future a reality. Tell the people not to get too involved in finance and to live well. Lin Yan said. This kind of game is the same as the kind of "Pokemon" that only adults understand, but children don't know. Children are playing a refreshing battle game, and adults are interpreting the connotation.
I think this is the direction of our Chiba game in the future, and we can't just be Mario forever. Whoever it is, they're going to get bored with him.
This game is called "Money Future" for the time being, and it can be regarded as the game form of my future Chiba game. Make an attempt.
It's just an attempt, and maybe no one likes to play at all. However, we have to try, if we keep following the Mario path, we will have no way out. ”
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
Hearing Lin Yan say this, most of the people in the fifth part raised their hands.
Actually, that's a process. If Lin Yan really wants to say that I just want to make this game, I really want to make it. In fact, this meeting is a place where you can express your opinions. But opinions may not be adopted, and they are likely to be rejected, so don't be surprised to be fart.
Of course. The performance will not be so explicit. Actually, the purpose of this is. It's about making these staff feel useful. I am making decisions about the development of the entire fifth part. Although, there may be a little bit of compromise in this process of autonomous decision-making.
However, I still gave my opinion, and I listened to it, didn't I?
Lin Yan sometimes doesn't like to engage in these vain things, but he has to do it.
Because, in daily work, no matter who it is, they will accumulate grievances, and they must have a channel to vent, and they must not be held back.
After so many years of getting along, Lin Yan has consciously understood that most Japanese people.
The essence of the Japanese is still not open-minded, the pattern is too shallow, they are sensitive, and the competition for survival is cruel, so they have developed a very sick virtue: cruelty and cruelty.
They like the people around them very much, and the two of them are likely to have no grudges in the past and no enmity in the near future. One person wants to pit another person and make a small report to the leader.
Maybe it's just because he didn't have a happy breakfast today, the rice was too hard, the miso soup was too salty, or the tone of his wife's speech made him unhappy.
Then, the other person who has been cheated will endure it and wait for an opportunity to take revenge.
Of course, on the surface, everyone is amiable and good friends.
This is also the reason why foreigners find Japanese people polite for a short period of time. They all put what they think in their hearts, and the things on their faces are basically fake.
Of course, after getting along for a while, you can discover the truth under this superficial harmony.
Of course, some people are often more Japanese than Japanese, and I heard that RT-Mart's supermarket does not allow cashiers to go to the toilet during working hours, so that many cashiers dare not drink water for a day.
What are the consequences of going to the toilet, the consequences are very serious, that is, deducting one day's salary, a few more times, and I can't say that I have to pay RT-Mart every month.
They are more like Japanese than Japanese, and the second devil is often more cruel than the devil.
Just like the Koreans during the Japanese-Occupation period, as two devils, they treated others more ruthlessly than real devils.
They know their positioning, that is, a dog, and the dog naturally has to have the consciousness of a dog. It should be able to bite and let the owner know what it is for.
It is said that when Japan failed, some of those people in Goryeo felt that they should be happy, and even raised the banner of Chinese characters, thinking that they were Chinese and killed the invaders themselves.
There are also people who think that they have failed, and the masters are all gone.
There were not many people who thought they were Koreans, until a person with the surname Precious Metal appeared, and the water pipe script used by Koreans no longer used Chinese characters or Japanese.
He preached the nation, and finally succeeded in making the Goryeo people independent and becoming their own country.
Of course, for various reasons, the Goryeo Peninsula, like most places in the world, has become two parts. The same was probably true of China at that time.
However, he can only blame Chang Kaishen for being too weak, and finally arrived on an island.
The game "Financial Future" still adopts the production mode of a three-dimensional game, and the battle scenes are smooth, almost hitting the level of the "Devil May Cry" series in later generations.
The movements are smooth and the sense of blow is refreshing, which is naturally popular with most people. Even if the game doesn't have any connotation, this game is a hit.
What's more, this is still a game supervised by Lin Yan.
Although there are many games supervised by Lin Yan, or the games produced, there is no shoddy production.
Although,Sometimes,With the exit of the new console,Copy a cold meal,Launch a high-definition remastered version of the game.。
Of course, most companies do. And the fans of these games eat this set, so it's not a place to complain.
"Financial Future" is a game that became popular just as an action game at first. Europe and the United States are more popular than Japan.
Because, they prefer the kind of straightforward rather than subtle Japanese style.
The graphics of "Financial Future" are good, the action is great, it is very hitty, and at the same time it has exaggerated gorgeousness.
However, if it were only that, "Financial Futures" would not be a hot topic. However, it is precisely because of the connotation of the performance of "Financial Future" that it has been excavated by many people.
And because "Financial Future" uses a "flashback" technique, which is not a "flashback" in the movie, but can fight non-stop, similar to infinite mode.
There can be no plot at all.,Just brush and brush.。
If you want to see the plot and experience the plot, dig up those collected items, and those who like to mow the grass can just hit it. Each took what he liked, and this game won first place in the Game of the Year contest in '92.
The game has been in production for almost two years, which is not a very long time, but it is not a very short time either. The picture of "Financial Future" is basically the peak state of the new super red and white machine.
Unlike in the cassette era, some modules can also be added to the cassette to enhance the performance of the machine. In the era of optical discs, often the performance of the machine is fixed. Unless you exit some upgraded kits.
However, the launch of the kit means that the performance of the entire hardware is not uniform. The optimization of the game became another problem.
So, the kit didn't come out.
Because, there is no way to determine that every host is installed with this condition.
A lot has happened in the past two years, the most important of which is the rapid development of the Internet, such as "Counter-Strike" and "Two Battles", where everyone is versus the Internet, and the personal computer as a platform has begun to rise.
In response to this new era, there must be new games. (To be continued.) )
