Chapter 520: Joining the Magazine
Yamauchi didn't watch the TV content carefully, and his mind was full of the words he heard before.
Then he got up and walked back and forth around the room.
From his expression, it could be seen that he was very anxious at the moment, as if he was thinking about something difficult to decide, he had already been persuaded by his friends to continue his studies, after all, as an art graduate, only a bachelor's degree, it is difficult to find a suitable position in a relatively good company.
But now he kept recalling that sentence in his mind, and he felt that he should join the industry at this time.
At this time, he remembered something that one of his senior brothers had told him before, his senior brother was two years older than him, did not go to graduate school, and directly joined the work after graduation, and was now serving as a section leader in a newly formed magazine.
The magazine was created out of a large media group.
This media group is a traditional media company, with several mainstream hits, as well as a few TV stations, but there is no game-based channel, and now seeing that the game industry is so prosperous, this media company decided to organize a magazine first.
And Yamauchi Kazunori's senior brother is in charge of the recruitment of this magazine, and he has called Yamauchi Kazunori to consult before, because the other party knows that Yamauchi Kazunori is a game fan, plus the article is well written, and he has artistic talent, so he is naturally suitable for the job of editor.
At that time, Kazunori Yamauchi had already thought about the test, so he declined the invitation.
Although his brother said that because of the relationship with the parent company, their newly established and not very well-known game magazine also got an interview spot for the E3 exhibition, and his brother told him at the time. He led the team on this mission to the United States to interview E3.
If Kazunori Yamauchi wants to come, he can take him there.
While going to the E3 show, for a gamer. It is indeed a dream thing, and it is also great for Yamauchi Kazunori's Western medical forest. However, since he had already decided to take the postgraduate entrance examination at that time, he could only reluctantly give up this rare opportunity.
And now, Kazunori Yamauchi feels that he can take advantage of this opportunity to work for a while in his senior brother's magazine and then try it at a game company.
So, after thinking of this, he immediately dialed his senior brother's phone.
Kazunori Yamauchi's brother is called Fukushima. During this time, he was busy and anxious, he was working hard for the affairs of the magazine, he was valued by the president, and he was entrusted with this important task, and he also won the opportunity to go to E3 for his newly established magazine to interview, you know, the entire Japanese game magazine media, only ten can obtain this authorization.
However, he has yet to find many members who can satisfy him.
There are quite a few who are willing to come. A lot of people who like games are naturally interested in the work of editing game magazines, but it doesn't work if you're interested. You have to be capable, but unfortunately, those who have the ability either offer too much to afford, or they are disdainful of their own magazine.
To say whether there are capable newcomers.
Fukushima really knows, for example, one of his junior disciples, named Kazunori Yamauchi, is not only good at playing all kinds of games. And he is quick to think and writes good articles. He is also very artistically talented, which is really suitable. But it's a pity that he called to invite him in person before, and the other party bluntly said that he was going to take the postgraduate entrance examination, so he could only regretfully refuse his invitation.
Just as Fukushima was still thinking about it, his mind full of this disorganized, unstructured stuff, the phone on his desk rang.
was disrupted thinking, even though it was a disorganized and disorganized thinking, which still made Fukushima angry, but angry to angry, he still calmed down a little and picked up the phone, as soon as the phone was connected, the voice of his familiar junior brother, Kazunori Yamauchi, came from the phone.
The duration of the call was brief, but the content made Fukushima a little strange.
Yamauchi Kazunori didn't say it explicitly on the phone, just said that he wanted to invite his seniors to help with some things, and then he wanted to ask the tutor for a meal, Fukushima asked what it was, as long as he could do it, he would definitely do it, and there was no need to eat so troublesome, but no matter how Fukushima asked, Yamauchi Kazunori didn't say.
In desperation, Fukushima could only agree.
At a sushi restaurant near the magazine in Fukushima, Fukushima met his younger brother.
Although the weather is no longer cold, Fukushima still habitually exhales into his hand, he is from Hokkaido, and this behavior has become a habit, so he has always maintained it.
"Yamauchi, what can't you say on the phone?"
In fact, when I told my senior brother that I wanted to go to his magazine, I could say it on the phone, but Yamauchi Kazunori thought that after all, this was a matter of asking for help, although the other party had invited him before, but he refused at the time.
And a good horse won't eat back grass, and if he mentions it to Fukushima, maybe the other party will have something else in his heart.
Therefore, it is better to invite the other party to a meal directly, which was well said back then.
The whole meal was not shocked.
Kazunori Yamauchi is not a person who can hide things, and Fukushima is also a temperamental person, and when he saw Yamauchi Kazunori say that he was willing to come to help the magazine he had just established, he was even a little overjoyed, and even forced himself to settle the account in the end.
This made Kazunori Yamauchi a little embarrassed.
After all, it was all said before, and this time he wanted to invite his senior brother to dinner.
However, Fukushima's reasons are also very sufficient, first of all, he only agreed to come to dinner before, but he did not agree to Yamauchi Kazunori's request to invite him to dinner, eating and inviting him to eat are two different things, second, as Yamauchi Kazunori's senior brother, it is impossible for him to let his junior brother take the initiative to invite him to dinner, and the last point is also the most important.
Since Kazunori Yamauchi agreed to join the magazine, then of course he became the other party's boss, and what qualifications does the boss have to let his subordinates entertain.
In the United States.
After Jefferson's interview was broadcast on television, although he did not mention his name in the interview, everyone knew that he was talking about a man who dared to talk to Jester. Who was the man Lee gambling on, and what Jefferson said was so ironic that it immediately made Vizhen talk to Richard. Garrett couldn't bear it.
But what the other party said was also true.
Jester's contribution to the development of the entire video game industry and the fact that the industry was able to re-establish itself from the ashes is a great credit to the development of such a thriving situation.
And Richard. Garrett had a lot of trash to talk about, but he also knew it wasn't time.
Now it's okay to talk about this trash.
He was just in an interview, when he was asked about this, he said a word of innocence, and said that at the press conference of Weizhen Entertainment before the E3 exhibition, there would be some small letters about the game he was making, Russian and Japanese penguins, and he also said that if the development work was not too busy at that time, he might have attended.
There is actually a lot of information hidden in this sentence.
First of all, last and last, he said that he might be there, you know, the E3 show is the most talked about event in the game industry right now, especially for players, there is nothing more exciting to see the news of their long-awaited new game at the E3 show.
And Richard. Garrett and Jester. Lee's gambling RPG game is naturally one of the most talked about games, you know, when Jester was interviewed before, he once said that he would attend the press conference in person, and he would look at the situation and reveal a little bit about the RPG game he is developing.
And now, in Richard. Garrett mouthed, he turned out to become, not guaranteed to attend.
This is in great probability, illustrated, Richard. Although it has been almost two months since Garrett set up the development team, their development plan may still be just on the book.
You know, the bet they made before, the time specified, was selected by this year's GDC Game of the Year.
The condition for GDC to select games is that you sell them according to the price.
His words also made many people cast a shadow on his game.
But that's not great for Richard. Garrett didn't have any effect, in fact, for him, the difficult birth of the previous game was just that he was thinking in the wrong direction, after all, he really took this gamble too seriously, but in the case of several meetings that were unsuccessful.
One of his subordinates inadvertently said something that made him a little stunned.
"Why should we be like a great enemy, even if Jester did a good job before, it was his own choice of his own field that he was best at, in terms of American RPG, what should we be afraid of him? You know, the "Genesis" we made is the pinnacle and benchmark of this type of game. ”
At that time, this sentence of his subordinates fell on his head like a thunderbolt.
Suddenly made him come to his senses.
Having experienced the development of the series "Genesis", Richard . Garrett knows all too well how difficult it is for players who love these American RPGs to satisfy their tastes, and how difficult it is to develop such a game.
Not to mention Jester's team that is beginners from start to finish? (To be continued)
