The speed of research and development of new hosts is not very fast, to be precise, it is very slow. Overcome the problems that need to be overcome, accumulate technology bit by bit, and finally put them together to make them a new host.

Lin Yan didn't draw the drawings of the new host by hand this time, in fact, he could draw it by himself, and it would be good to piece it together with the remaining memory fragments. However, the new host is much more complicated than the old one, and even if he is given half a year, he may not be able to really make the perfect drawings of the new host.

Even if he really got the drawings by himself, how should he come up with it, and directly say that I am idle and bored, and directly design the next-generation console?

Although this is a bit demonic, it is not particularly demonic, in fact, the drawings of the red and white machine, he took it out like this. However, the new host does not use the public components that can be commonly seen on the market, and requires a lot of customization.

If you don't cooperate with these hardware manufacturers to overcome the problem together, then when you come up with ready-made drawings, what if they can't make the corresponding standard components.

And, as consoles become more complex, it's becoming less and less possible for a single person to do the design work. It is possible not to say that a team of dozens of people will do it for a few years, or a team of hundreds of people will do it for a few years.

Of course, with the improvement of the level of electronic technology. With the development of the process of personal computer modularization, there may come a time when the design of the home game console will become very simple, directly on the basis of the computer hardware, with a small change.

Originally, home game consoles were also named after computers, such as red and white machines. The official name in Japan is "home computer" because of the red and white color scheme used. Only the nickname of the red and white machine.

A game console can be said to be a computer that enhances the graphics display performance, as well as the audio performance. At a time when ordinary computers can't complete complex graphic display work. It has advantages.

And when the computer develops step by step, from a simple office, to a multimedia device that integrates audio-visual entertainment, the advantages of game consoles are not so obvious.

Although its advantage at this time has become smaller, it still has an advantage, that is, the game console saves money, which is much more expensive than playing games on the computer.

A generation of game consoles, from the beginning of life to the end of life. In the past five years, a game console is 20,000 yen, and the average is only 4,000 yen per year.

And for the same price, maybe it is only enough to buy a dessert-level graphics card on the computer, the graphics card is only a part of the computer, and the rest cannot be said to never be upgraded.

And the graphics card is upgraded every year, a dessert-level graphics card will become less sweet in the second year, and it will be very difficult in the third year. In the fourth year, it needs to be changed. And the game console is sure to play with peace of mind within five years.

Another advantage of gaming consoles is convenience. You can play the game cartridge when you put it on, and you don't have to think about what installation, what driver, what hardware. Everything is designed for the player in advance. Even if you are a monkey all the time, you can pick up the controller and play the game console.

And playing games with a personal computer, in the setting stage before playing. There will be a lot of players who are originally humans, and they are so anxious that they scratch their ears and cheeks. Feel like a monkey.

Lin Yan wrote these views on the future development of video games into an internal reference document. A reference file that can only be seen in the middle of the Chiba game.

Of course, after writing it, he had no intention that this thing would not be leaked. These things are not too secret, and they may involve the future development direction of Chiba Games, but it doesn't matter if others know about it.

Because, this in itself is the general trend of history, even if Lin Yan himself doesn't say it, there will be many people who will find out about these things.

Even with Lin Yan's right to speak in video games, others don't believe all the things he says.

Because, no one can say for sure what will happen in the future. Even on the other side of the ocean, Bill Gates, who is tinkering with the computer system, once said that the computer does not need too high storage space, which is enough for ordinary users. How could he have imagined that ten years later, the storage space of ordinary personal computers would become hundreds of millions of times that of what he said back then.

People's expectations for the near future always lag behind the development of reality, and the expectations for the distant future far exceed the actual development.

In the 80s, where Lin Yan is now, the middle of the 21st century in science fiction works, is already the kind of situation where cars are flying all over the sky.

But is this really going to happen in the middle of the 21st century? Actually, unlikely.

In fact, the development of most civilian science and technology is inseparable from energy consumption.

For example, maglev trains have not been able to be used commercially on a large scale because their operating costs are too high. Unable to break even.

Of course, military products, you don't have to care about these things, a little similar to a car flying is a jet hovercraft, the hovercraft uses the upward thrust of the air to float a certain distance on the water, or float on land.

It is said that the principle of this design is that the air has less resistance than the water and the ground, and can move faster. However, the energy consumption is not something that ordinary people can afford.

Chiba Yuki is no longer surprised by Lin Yan's various whimsical ideas, to be honest, she is used to Lin Yan who is always open-minded, but there is still some truth in what she says.

After all, a person who doesn't have an active mind won't create a colorful video game world.

A Hollywood film company contacted Chiba Games and wanted to make a movie using the well-known game character "Mario" under Chiba Games.

Chiba Yuki was quite excited about this, but Lin Yan was not too interested in this.

Chiba Yuki is excited because Hollywood can be regarded as the birthplace of a culture, and the United States uses Hollywood to influence the minds of people in various countries and regions of the world.

Often, whenever the United States wants to make some moves, it will release it through some movies.

The scariest ad is that people don't know it's an advertisement. And that's what Hollywood movies preach. If you don't know it's an advertisement, you won't resist it, and it's deeply rooted in people's hearts.

But. Video games and movies, it's really hard to put together. It's not that you can't combine. It's the special effects technology of the '80s, and it's hard to blur the boundaries between reality and video games.

If you use a real person to play it. Then Uncle Mario, who looks stupid and cute, wears bib pants in video games, is only one stupid word left.

However, just shoot it, and Lin Yan has no reason to stop it. It's a big deal that this movie was later called the so-called black history, and the Chiba game officially didn't recognize it.

This approach will make the majority of the game crowd forget about this movie, and at most some people who like to make shows on old paper piles will spray this movie.

But. This is not harmful to Chiba games, but beneficial to them. One of the major elements that made Super Mario Bros. popular is its hidden bricks that will surprise people, as well as hidden levels.

If people weren't interested in these specious legends, the eight underwater levels of "Contra", which is now widely circulated, would not have such a market.

"Senpai, I want to develop some computer games." Lin Yan's first words after knocking on the door of Chiba Yuki's room were this.

"Do what you want. However, it's best not to conflict with home consoles and handhelds. Chiba Yuki said.

From the time Lin Yan submitted the internal document, she knew that this guy wanted to make computer games. But. Making computer games is a good attempt, yes.

However, there are also many questions about whether computer games will crowd out the home console market. And, if transferred to computer games. Chiba games have no advantage over consoles.

Personal computers are not machines for Chiba Games, and they don't have a say in what they say on such machines. In other words, a certain degree of monopoly will be lost. Excess benefits.

The reason why the video game league did not enter the home console market in the first place was also because they feared that the home console would harm their interests in the home console market. As a result, Chiba games, which had almost no burden at the time, entered the home console market. Out of a bright and glorious avenue.

How similar the history is, today's Chiba games are like the video game leagues of the old, they all have burdens that they can't let go, and it's not easy to travel light.

That's why new companies are always coming out, and that's why the original giants will decline.

The original carriage manufacturers refused to build cars for fear that they would affect their carriage business. Originally, the small workshop that had no accumulation of vehicles made cars one by one, and finally destroyed the old carriage factory.

History is progressing in this way, the backward will always disappear, and everyone will always pursue better.

That's why those ventures became popular later, because I had the money and the burden, and I couldn't do those new things.

Then I will take the money and let those who have no money but no burden, and who still have ideals, do it.

Even if you invest in 100 people, 99 of them fail, and the income brought by the remaining one will exceed the total investment of 100 people.

Of course, there are also those industries that have not changed much, and there will be some old stores that will continue to exist.

Video games are one such industry that is changing super fast, though. It doesn't matter if you're backward in hardware or backward in thinking, and you don't know what players want to play right now, you're going to die.

Lin Yan's ideal game world before the ultimate ideal is to weaken some performance of the home console and combine it with the TV box to become a simple game that emphasizes multiplayer socialization.

That kind of core game is put on the computer and given to the core players who enjoy playing these games.

The handheld computer first evolved into a multimedia device that can read e-books, play music, play games, and watch movies, and then add a call function. As a result, he can only play games from a handheld computer, into a multimedia device, and then into a communication multimedia device, which can freely install various software to meet various needs of the mobile phone.

In this way, it will become a game network that covers all aspects of life.

Using the large amount of data that can be obtained from this, you can also analyze some users and what they like, so as to push differently, so that users can use stalks happy, more convenient, and more assured.

In this way, it can be said that the establishment of a gaming empire can be said to be a game.

And Lin Yan's ultimate ideal is to unify these three development directions.

Let all human beings become players of video games, and let these players go from playing games outside to getting into games.

Perhaps, it will be possible to build a virtual gaming kingdom, almost completely synchronized with reality. There are a variety of planets to meet the needs of all kinds of players.

If you want to experience the fantasy world, enter the "Star of Azeroth". If you want to experience the wasteland after the nuclear bomb is destroyed, then go to the "Atomic Planet" and experience the fun of picking up garbage.

Join different planets and participate in different adventures. If you don't have a suitable planet, you can also build a home of your own.

In this virtual world, every human being is a player, every human being is a creator, and every player is able to have the future they want and create everything they want.

In this way, spiritual civilization will be greatly developed. And after that, it is not known whether human beings will abandon their physical bodies, turn into a stream of electrons, and become "immortal people" living in the game.

Lin Yan only knew that his mission was to build such a world. However, when building the first video game arcade "Space Invaders", Lin Yan knew that he had opened a Pandora's box, and he didn't know whether the things released were good or bad, lucky or bad, lucky or bad.

Of course, Chiba Yuki didn't know Lin Yan's vision, even if she knew that Lin Yan was cranky, but if she knew the future he imagined, such a "science fiction" would think that he had a mental problem.

Lin Yan has now determined his future path, but he is just practicing it step by step.

He sometimes wonders if what he is doing now is also a dream in that ultimate ideal.

I designed a world for myself and let myself work hard in this world.

When the time came, everything was done, but it turned out that it was just something similar to a dream, and it was interesting.

But even if it's really a dream, what does it matter? It's not the result that matters, it's the experience of the process.

Just like love, a relationship that has not gone through hard and long-distance running will not be cherished.

Feelings that are not pure are also prone to problems. Lin Yan had already discovered that his problem was that he thought too much, and he just needed to be a pure gamer. (To be continued......)
