Chapter 867: Open Testing

Actually, there's one thing that's quite interesting.

That is, Google and a certain degree of the two companies were established in about the same time, and the difference in time is no more than a year.

Fifteen years later, though, Google's main source of revenue was advertising, but at that time Google had truly transformed itself into a technology company, not only owning the most widely used operating system on the smartphone market, but also conducting research on the feasibility of quantum computers.

And what about a certain degree?

They were studying how to intensify their advertising efforts and how to scam poor patients out of their money.

People can be shameless, but they can't be shameless to this extent.

Therefore, although the success of an enterprise is inseparable from the emergence of the times, if you want to turn a successful enterprise into a great enterprise, the founder needs to have a long-term vision and majestic courage.

Both of Google's founders are there.

This time their meeting with Jester did not achieve their goal, Jester will not insist on his 30% and 30% stake in Google this time, he will contribute according to the proportion of the second round of financing, but the two are not too disappointed, because they still got Jester's promise after all, although only verbally.

Jester's credit is very good, and he never goes back on what he promised.

After that, he attended the annual board meeting of Citibank, and Jester was purely there to make up the numbers, including the charity dinner and charity auction that followed, and as Citibank's Activision Jester also painted 3 million to buy a European oil painting whose name he had not even heard of.

But Claudia was interested in the painting.

What makes Jester happiest is actually that the trip to New York in the past few days can be regarded as a relaxation, after all, he has been working intensively for a year, and he has hardly rested, although his wife has not told him about it, Jester also knows that he is a little snubbed by the other party, and Jester is also a little apologetic for this.

Fortunately, Claudia is a very virtuous wife. Some don't look like traditional Western women, but some look like traditional Eastern women.

She selflessly supports her husband's work.

She never quarrels with her husband over work, and she understands what she is working for.

Therefore, after participating in the Citibank charity auction, Claudia took the initiative to help Jester push off a few banquets, which also surprised Jester.

"I know you've wanted to go back to California for a long time, and your last game, I hope to be your most successful." Hearing what he said in person, Jester's heart couldn't say how happy he was to have such a confidant with him. What else can I ask for?

In the time that followed, Jester was really like he said in the meeting, completely out of other things on Mars Entertainment, and devoted himself to the development of the game, even the E3 exhibition, but asked, not involved.

You must know that this E3 exhibition is a very important exhibition for Mars Entertainment.

Because this is the first battle of Mars Entertainment for the next generation, they will show their somatosensory equipment at this E3 exhibition.

This one has been a concept that has been touted by Mars Entertainment for over a year.

Although above last year's carnival. Mars Entertainment has conducted a demo of some of the completed levels of Super Balotelli Galaxy, however, this time the demo is not open to the public, except for invited media. Only players who have been in line for a long time to draw lots will be able to get a short 20-minute to 30-minute trial of the game.

Although almost everyone who tried it said that it was incredible, completely subverting their impression of the game.

However, because it is a closed trial relationship, the outside world is still extremely unfamiliar with the somatosensory game mode.

And this time E3. Although the public trial is not the fist product of "Super Balotelli Galaxy", which is absolutely the next-generation console of Mars Entertainment, at the time of its release, it is said that this time "Sports" will be a bonus game for this console, that is. All you have to do is buy the console this time, and you'll get the game for free.

In the end, the new game mode that Mars Entertainment has blown to the sky - somatosensory, can it be recognized by players, this is the first difficulty, if it is recognized by players, then the success of this host is predictable.

If it doesn't work out, then it will most likely be the biggest Waterloo in the history of Mars Entertainment.

You know, this is the company's development strategy designated by Jester when he was the chairman of Mars Entertainment, although his wife has now taken over as the chairman of Mars Entertainment, and Iwata Satoshi is also making drastic changes to the bloated organization within Mars Entertainment in the position of executive vice president, but the general direction of the company's development has not changed.

As E3 approached, Satoshi Iwata suddenly held a press conference.

This time it was a strange press conference.

It turned out to be an invitation to Mars Entertainment for those married mothers, or mothers with children.

Invite them to participate in one of their tests, about their new console, and hope that they will give their feedback on their new console.

This suddenly caused an uproar in the entire game circle~ wave.

Because everyone knows that these house mothers are the least welcome creatures for these game consoles, and they are also one of the biggest enemies of their sales, and in general, especially their hardware companies, have always avoided these house mothers.

It's not like Satoshi Iwata, who invited this group of family mothers to review your game console.

Because inviting them will definitely dismiss your machine and your game for nothing.

There are even many people in the industry who are laughing at Iwata Satoshi, saying that before Iwata Satoshi made blind changes in Mars Entertainment and disbanded almost half of the development studios, which greatly affected the development ability of Mars Entertainment, this time, he already wanted to find those family mothers to do a review of Dreambox4, which was simply playing the piano.

When the time comes, it will be these family mothers who are evaluating whether it is for the game console or for the game. Heavily denounced.

Then the media ridiculed the side of Mars Entertainment.

Even many people are still wondering that Jester is really smart and confused for a while.

It doesn't matter if he wants to put down these mundane things and concentrate on making games, but why would he find such an immature Japanese to take over Mars Entertainment when looking for his successor, it's really stupid.

After Jester found out about this, he specifically found Satoshi Iwata.

Because this was Jester's idea, he knew that the original historical WII relied on this marketing method to open the defense line of the family mother, so that the sales of this game console formed a blowout when it first went on sale.

Because these family moms think it's more than just a gaming console.

It's an exercise machine!

This is the charm of the body, and even in the eyes of these family mothers, it is much more cost-effective than a fitness machine.

First of all, it's his cheapness. Moreover, it is the love of children.

If you buy a gym machine for your child, he may not want to use it, but if you buy a game machine for your child, the result will be completely different.

Unexpectedly, this matter was rejected by Satoshi Iwata.

This surprised Jester very much, he knew how much pressure Iwata Satoshi was under during this period of time because of this matter, and if he was the first person to propose this matter to the public, the pressure on him would be much weaker.

Because his prestige is still there.

For the time being, no one dares to plunder their own tiger whiskers. That's for sure.

However, Satoshi Iwata resolutely refused.

"BOSS, I agreed to this matter at the beginning, I think your ideas are very good, and they are also some thoughts in my heart. But it's a lot better than I had in mind, and you're now fully engaged in making a game, and you don't want to be influenced by outside things. So, the pressure of this matter is all on me. ”

After saying this, Satoshi Iwata paused slightly. Then he added with a smile: "I think this kind of pressure is also a kind of supervision and warning for me, which can make people not swell~swell." ”

This time the review of the house mom was before the E3 show.

The location is New York.

These moms were also chosen completely randomly from among the moms in New York who were willing to vote.

Many people regard this event of Mars Entertainment as a farce, but Mars Entertainment itself attaches great importance to it, and all aspects of preparation are also very fulfilling.

This time, the assessment is also not open to the public.

The venue is arranged in a five-star hotel in central Manhattan, and the media is not allowed to enter, and of course, any filming equipment is not allowed to enter.

At the test site, Satoshi Iwata personally presided over, his style is humorous and witty, and he is good at talking to people and mobilizing emotions, so no one is more suitable than him.

Even for this event,Even Miyamoto Shigeru came to the scene in person,Although the on-site trial is only to prepare for the public trial on E3 "Sports", but Miyamoto Shigeru is now the person who has the deepest understanding of somatosensory game development, in this more than a year, although Miyamoto Shigeru spent most of his time in the development of "Super Balotelli Galaxy", but, in his spare time, for the original "Sports" modification, It has also completely raised the game to a notch compared to a year ago.

The process of this review.

Except for the people who participated in the review, no one knew the specifics.

However, the reaction of these mothers was beyond everyone's expectations, and they did not make any criticism of the physical sensation of Mars Entertainment.

Instead, praise them.

Cheng Mars Entertainment is a responsible company, their games are the most suitable for children to play, especially somatosensory, it is simply a perfect game in their minds, and even more than sixty percent of family mothers said that when Dreambox4 is released, she will definitely buy one for her child as soon as possible.

Half of the remaining 40 percent will say that he will buy one as a gift on Christmas or a child's birthday.

And the remaining two percent, most of them will also say that it depends on the situation, and only a very small number of people will say that they will never buy!

This is really a test that has made the whole industry jaw drop!

Before, they all thought that almost no one would be good friends with the so-called somatosensory game consoles of Mars Entertainment, because these family mothers have always treated their game companies as enemies, and how can they have a good attitude towards enemies?

But this time, the test results of Mars Entertainment surprised them!

Could it be that the Dreambox4 feels so good that it feels?

Not only did Sega, which had already announced that it would release their new console at the end of this year, but even Sony, who wanted to be calm and full of heart for its PS3, was a little apprehensive this time, and they also knew that at an E3, Mars Entertainment would arrange a public trial of their somatosensory game.

Therefore, everyone's eyes are focused on the development of this E3 exhibition.

They all want to see how powerful Mars Entertainment's somatosensory equipment is?

According to the usual practice, the highlight of E3 is not actually on the opening day, but before the launch, the pre-show press conference of major game companies is the top priority, because almost all major game companies will announce some of the most important news this year at this pre-show press conference.

But this time it seems to be different.

Although the pre-show press conference is still lively, many people have already set their sights on the official launch of E3 the next day.

The open play of Mars Entertainment's somatosensory games went up.

Although E3 has allowed ordinary players to participate since last year, it still needs to apply online, and only those who have obtained the qualification to apply can buy tickets with an invitation letter, and the ticket price is not low.

Of course, people in the industry don't need to be like that.

However, there are also strict restrictions on the number of people, for example, the world's largest online game media such as "GAME", and the second largest paper media, only have a total of ten places, and the highest-selling direct media such as "Video Game Monthly" has a total of five places.

For example, there are only four or five domestic media, not those who are very famous, and they are not qualified to participate at all.

It's a little more for game companies.

But not much more.

For example, there are hundreds of places in total, and for some very small game studios, it is even difficult to qualify for participation. (To be continued.) )
