Chapter 541: What Can I Get
Otherwise, the other party would not be at such a late hour.
Call yourself.
At noon the next day, Jester met with Shigeru Miyamoto in a western restaurant not far from the E3 Convention and Exhibition Center.
When it was time to serve the food, Shigeru Miyamoto took the initiative to talk to Jester.
The first question made Jester overjoyed.
"What kind of treatment can I get if I come to Mars Entertainment?" Shigeru Miyamoto's tone was very calm, and this sentence, which was like a nuclear bomb in Jester's ears, was actually said in such a simple, flat narrative tone in his mouth.
"What?"
Jester was stunned for a moment, and then in an extremely suppressed and excited tone, he involuntarily asked|excellent|excellent|small|say|more|new|most|fast|www.uuxs.cc|.
"I'm talking about ......" Shigeru Miyamoto didn't care, repeating the question he had said before, which made Jester press his two palms on the table, and then took a big breath.
Only then did he say: "This news is very amazing, although I expected it before I came, but I have to say that I am still a little surprised by you...... Direct. ”
Hearing Jester say this, Shigeru Miyamoto just smiled and didn't speak.
"You will be treated as an independent leader of an independent development team, this is when you just joined Mars Entertainment, if you apply for R&D for each of your projects, then the R&D funding you get is second only to me and Mark. Saini's level. ”
After finishing speaking, Jester seemed to be afraid that Miyamoto Shigeru would be dissatisfied, so he took the initiative to continue to explain.
"You're at the same level as Hironobu Sakaguchi, and the reason why you're behind me and Mark. Saini, because I made the game Zuò, has the highest impact factor score in the company, and Mark. The same goes for Saini, if you can achieve a certain influence factor in the future game, then you can also get me and Mark. Seni's treatment. ”
"Of course, but it's not just that, but I can explain a little, this is the internal regulations of Mars Entertainment, what I can give you is a new designer, you can get the highest level of treatment, of course, if you want, if you make more than two games for the company, and both games can meet the company's audit standards, you can also directly set up a game studio with the company's funding."
Jester patiently explained to Shigeru Miyamoto.
And Shigeru Miyamoto has been listening expressionlessly, and he can't see what kind of attitude he has towards what Jester said, whether he is satisfied or dissatisfied, and no one can get the slightest confirmation from his expressionless face.
After Jester finished speaking, there was a moment of silence.
It wasn't until after the appetizer was served that Shigeru Miyamoto spoke: "It's really tempting, I can't find any excuse to refuse, but I still have a question, is there any restriction on the development of games?" Is it entirely developer-centric? Do you want to do what you want? ”
Certainly, for a designer like Shigeru Miyamoto, Nenjian let him make games without restriction is what he hopes for the most.
Otherwise, if you make a game, you have to be restricted by the company like this, restrict that, can't this, can't that, then he would rather not make games in this situation, Ning Yuan will do those handheld games that he can do casually.
"There are many situations."
Jester didn't say yes or no, and after a slight pause, he explained.
"The development of every game needs to look at the company's internal review committee, the members of the review committee, are the best designers in the company, and can also be said to be the best designers in the world, so there is no need to worry about their ability, there are not many members in it, there are now a total of nine, except for myself, each person has only one vote, whether a game can pass the review of guò research and development, that is, the minority obeys the majority, and it is enough to get more than half of the votes."
Saying that, Jester smiled and looked at Shigeru Miyamoto: "The reason why I say anything other than myself is that I also have the right to pass the guò, that is, no matter what the final vote is, even if the number of votes is a minority, if I am willing to use the right to pass the pass, then the development plan of this game will also pass the guò." ”
"Of course, just the right to pass guò, no single person, including myself, will have the right of veto, even if I don't agree with the research and development plan, but as long as I get more than half of the votes, I will also get the research and development funds."
"Not only that, but a person of your level, or Hironobu Sakaguchi, will have a privilege, that is, no matter what the final audit is, there will be only one power, and that is to unconditionally pass guò's own audit."
Hearing Jester say this, Shigeru Miyamoto's face showed an incredible look, in his eyes, if there is such power, then the previous troublesome review method is not too boring and boring? But soon, Jester smiled and answered his doubts.
"Hehe, don't be so surprised, listen to me first."
Jester smiled and calmed down Miyamoto Shigeru first, and he continued: "I also said before that this power is only available to people who have reached a certain level of system, and each person only has one time, if the plan of forcibly passing Guò has not been able to get good market feedback, that is, if the company loses too much money, or if the income is not satisfactory, then this full force will be canceled, and the designer's level will be directly reduced by one level." ”
"Of course, if the game is good enough and the company contributes enough, it will still be able to rise to the second level again, so that you can get another chance to be so willful."
Hearing Jester finish speaking, Shigeru Miyamoto's eyes became fiery.
Although it is not as he said at the beginning, this unlimited power to make a game is almost every designer's dream.
Who doesn't want to develop their own game without limits? You don't have to think about anything else, just what exactly do you want to make this game look like? You don't care about the company's opinion, you don't care about the player's opinion, you just need to satisfy your own ideas.
In fact, in Miyamoto's view, players don't have any specific opinions until they actually play a good enough game, or they don't know what kind of game is a good game, and when they know that you put a good game in front of them, they exclaim, oh God, this is the game I'm going to play.
He is extremely confident in this.
"Of course ......"
Just as Shigeru Miyamoto was in an unrestrained reverie, Jester spoke again.
"It's like I didn't make it clear before, the level of each designer is not fixed, since the development of good works will increase the points and even increase the level, so naturally, if the company's money is wasted and the development of failed works is developed, it will also reduce the points and even reduce the level."
"If it is reduced to a certain level within the company, then the identity of the maker will no longer exist, and you can only start again from the most basic place, the same way, if you are an artist, program or planner, if he contributes to meet the requirements, he can also apply to the company, and after applying for the pass, you can get the opportunity to become a producer, in Mars Entertainment, everyone is equal."
"And, as I told you before, you can unconditionally apply for the development of a designer, but the development funds that each designer can obtain are also different."
"The specific amount, based on the contribution of each person, is very fair."
"As for the specific level and the number of points in the company, there are still some rights and obligations in the company, when you enter the company, you will know, I can't say it too much now, you know, although this is not a precious thing, but this is still a little secret in the company."
Jester didn't forget to make a joke at the end.
Then he asked Shigeru Miyamoto again, "Is there anything else you need to ask?" ”
"Uh......"
Originally, Shigeru Miyamoto thought about something and wanted to know some differences between Mars Entertainment and Nintendo, but after hearing Jester say it in such detail, he basically solved all the doubts in his heart, so he suddenly found that after two questions, he didn't have any questions to ask.
After a minute of silence, Shigeru Miyamoto spoke his third question.
"The last question is, is the support from companies the same in Japan or in the U.S.?"
"That's ...... question?"
Hearing Shigeru Miyamoto's question, Jester didn't answer directly, but thought for a while before explaining: "Although I would like to say that it is the same, in fact, it is impossible, and I can tell you very clearly that the support of the company in the United States is definitely better." ”
Why? Actually, it's very simple, because we are a company headquartered in the United States, and we have far more engineers in the United States than in Japan, and there are not many Americans who are willing to work in Japan, which you have to understand. ”
"However, we have a well-established global technology library, so no matter where you are, you can get all the technical support of the company in the game development process."
"There's no doubt about it." R1152
