Chapter 189: The Plumber Who Disappeared
Christmas is a battleground for all soldiers, whether it's movies, records, or games. \\
"Senior, Sega, I've contacted a few people, and this is the form they gave us." In the office, Zhong Han handed a form to Qin Yuanfeng.
Qin Yuanfeng picked it up and looked at it, his brows furrowed.
As he thought, the sale of Mario 3 this time was too sudden, and Nintendo finally had some conscience and did not choose to sell it at Christmas, otherwise their third party would be miserable. After all, the market is so big, and selling a huge game with millions of copies will have a fatal impact on any other game.
Just like a movie, in a schedule, the box office of the first and second places is often doubled, or even several times more.
There is so much money, everyone chooses one, and it is difficult to choose the second.
It is precisely because of the mercy of Nintendo's subordinates that there is the rise of the masterpiece Final Fantasy in the future.
Final Fantasy 2, in this 88 Christmas, has really been embraced by game fans, as the second game in the series, a new system, a more tortuous plot, and a higher level of difficulty, finally allowing them to grab a certain market under the "national RPG" Dragon Quest DQ.
His gaze flickered quickly, and I'm afraid Square Enix's president didn't expect that this time he was going to face heartbeat memories. This masterpiece that Qin Yuanfeng has put a lot of thought into will pour a basin of cold water on the ambitious Square Enix.
What he frowned on was not the sale of Final Fantasy 2, but Sega's reaction.
It's not that to be a giant-level company, their leadership can make no mistakes, a company becomes a giant, it includes many reasons, Okawa Gong supported Sega to the giant level, but the successor of Hayao Nakayama is not a suitable successor.
He is very active in the development of hardware, but he can't discern the direction of hardware exhibition. He's just as meticulous about Sega's backbone business and the gaming industry, but that doesn't mean it's perfect.
Sometimes, talent is also a very important thing.
He sighed softly and recalled Sega's journey, and it can be said that Sega's decline was inseparable from a series of stupid tricks during the time of Nakayama's reign. It was not until Hisao Koguchi came to power that he reversed the decline with an iron-fisted policy.
But Sega at that time ...... It's not Sega anymore.
For example, on the Sega annual schedule under his nose, in November, this important game schedule, there is no proposal that makes his eyes shine!
Not to mention that it stimulates consumers to buy MD that doesn't sell well in Japan, it doesn't even build momentum for the work!
He shook his head slightly, forget it, these things have nothing to do with him, MD's home stadium is never in Japan, and the Japanese game system is more suitable for Nintendo, rather than Sega, which pursues "refreshing and hot".
Only next year, MD officially enters Europe and the United States, which is its paradise, and it is precisely because of the world's enthusiasm for MD that it can steal nearly half of the market under the hands of FC.
"Stay tuned." He read it carefully and handed the form back to Zhong Han: "As soon as Sega has a new initiative, report it to me immediately." ”
In this important period, Sega did not make a big reaction, this is the first Christmas schedule sold by MD! He was extremely disappointed with Sega's gaze.
Even if he knew that it was because the third party had not fallen to Sega and was still waiting, the more times like this, the more he had to make a strong momentum, which could make the other party waver. Without a good game, Sega has no publicity, and this practice of throwing away all third parties for millions of dollars is simply throwing away watermelons and picking sesame seeds.
"How's the rehearsal going?" He poured a cup of coffee and casually asked, "I mean the Bishoujo team." ”
"I was about to talk about it." Zhong Han took out a notepad from his pocket, skillfully took out a pen from his jacket and played with it at his fingertips, looked at the notepad and said: "There are two things you need to pay attention to, first, this team does not have a name, please be sure to set their names." This creates a centripetal force for the team. Second, Noriko Sakai has always wanted to meet you. ”
He closed the notebook: "There is one last item, Mr. Kubo's game has entered the production period, and the people from the Metropolitan Police Department will be there soon." But we paid hundreds of thousands of dollars more to find their reasoning collaboration. Senior, is it really worth it? This month, the MSI working group approved a second patent fee, more than $3 million. This is just the beginning, and I don't know if I have to invest tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars in research. In addition, the patent for the D-pad is in the hands of Nintendo, and they have applied for it for fifteen years, what about our console buttons? ”
"It's worth it." Qin Yuanfeng said lightly: "The second game is our killer feature. Heartbeat memories have no connotation, and its reputation will never pass the second game. ”
As for the D-pad, it is very simple, the definition of the D-pad is: to press the key in four consecutive directions to control the action in eight directions, as long as it is different in appearance and has some difference in function, it will not be sued for infringement. Only a company like Sega with a brain in the water will spend tens of millions on a D-pad patent. He thought for a moment, "You can call Noriko Sakai over." ”
Sakai Fazi came over quickly, with a trace of melancholy on his delicate goose egg face, and when he saw Qin Yuanfeng, he immediately bowed, and said in a soft voice like a bird: "Hello president." ”
"What's the matter?" Qin Yuanfeng looked at the future diva with interest and said with a smile.
"President, please allow me to go to Saitama Prefecture ......" Sakai Noriko's fair face showed an extremely hesitant look, and the white teeth of the braided shell gently bit her rosy lips, and finally bowed vigorously: "I promise it won't be long...... Will be back soon...... Most...... It only takes three days at most...... No! Two days! ”
Qin Yuanfeng didn't speak, Sakai Fazi looked at the ground like a pool of autumn water, he didn't dare to raise his head, and the palms of his hands on both sides of his skirt secreted a thin layer of cold sweat.
After more than ten seconds, she heard the other party's voice: "Miss Sakai, do you know that this is the last moment of your rehearsal." I've shown you the schedule, and it must all be recorded by November 15th. You are a group, and if you leave, it means that everyone else will stop working. Have you thought about it? ”
"I'm sorry!" Sakai Noriko's body bent almost ninety degrees, and she said nervously but persistently, "Please give me a little time...... I, I ......"
"Alright." Qin Yuanfeng waved his hand, he was a little unhappy in his heart, this kind of juncture, let alone three days, a day is a race against time, one person in the team leaves, and it is also a duet, which will inevitably delay the time for the film.
However, he is not a completely unsympathetic person, quietly turning the coffee cup, looking at Sakai Noriko and saying, "Give me a reason." ”
"If it's because of your willfulness, I don't think you're a good fit for this team because you don't think about others."
"I used to study in Saitama Prefecture...... Sakai Noriko bit her lip and said without even thinking about it...... I have a very good female friend...... We exchange diaries and go play together...... Haven't stopped since I went back......"
She ...... She was stalked the other day...... There were also several delinquent teenagers who sexually harassed her...... She, she was too scared to go out......"
Sakai's body still didn't straighten up, and her voice was a little choked. This kind of thing may not be a big deal to outsiders, but for the person concerned, she has to go back and take a look.
Again, she doesn't want to leave the group at all, she doesn't have a debut, she knows very well how much potential this team has, and the parent company is well-funded, and it has a lot of prospects than the previous firm.
Her heart was like a bucket of water, seven up and eight down, and after a few seconds, she heard Qin Yuanfeng's voice: "Go." You only have three days. The finance company will reimburse. ”
Yes? Noriko Sakai could barely believe her ears.
Japanese female artists are probably the hardest female artists in the world, unless their relatives pass away, they have the opportunity to take a look, especially now on the eve of the film, time is more precious than gold, her request can even be said to be unreasonable, but the other party agreed.
"Thank you...... Thank you! Her eyes turned slightly red, and she left grateful.
"Are you really good at being a good person?" As soon as she left, Zhong Han next to her plucked her ears very unvividly and teased: "Have you taken a fancy to her?" It looks really good. ”
"You can't have something other than hormones in your head?" Qin Yuanfeng sneered: "It's just human nature, this kind of thing may be a trivial matter for the company, but for her personally, it is a big thing." In three days, you can squeeze it out. For example, if I am going to be harassed, will you come to see me? ”
"Who is so discerning?!" Zhong Han was taken aback: "Are all the girls in this world blind?" ”
"Zhong Han, you can get out."
Zhong Han smiled and was about to leave, when he just opened the door when he heard the words behind him: "Go and watch Sakai Noriko, if she doesn't go to Saitama Prefecture, terminate the contract with her immediately, and report her behavior to major newspapers and magazines." ”
Qin Yuanfeng smiled casually and gently put down the coffee cup: "I can tolerate her concern, but I will never tolerate someone lying under my nose." ”
The time soon came to the twenty-third.
Today is the day of fa, Qin Yuanfeng came to the office early in the morning, and it didn't take long for the door to be knocked.
"Mr. Qin." Dao En nodded and came in, Qin Yuanfeng pointed to the chair: "Sit." ”
"Mr. Qin, you told me something? This is the fa-maze you want. Dawn sat respectfully on the sand and handed over the magazine in his hand.
Qin Yuanfeng took it casually, flipped it up, and said with a smile as he flipped it: "You have a task today, go to Akihabara and count Nintendo's ......"
"Smack!" Before he could finish speaking, he slammed the magazine shut.
How so?!
A feeling of being out of control suddenly rose from my heart. It made him feel at a loss for a moment.
"Mr. Qin?" Seeing his face, Dawn asked with a frown.
Qin Yuanfeng picked up the coffee cup, took a sip, and covered up the shock on his face for a moment, and then said with a smile: "You go and investigate Nintendo immediately, it's best to get their next general direction plan." These things don't need to be hidden. Go ahead. ”
Dao En nodded a little inexplicably and left, Qin Yuanfeng took a deep breath and immediately opened the fa.
He thought he had read it wrong, so he read it carefully and word for word.
Ten minutes later, he put down the fama puzzle, and his face was already solemn.
No!
Everywhere you can't find it!
Fa Mystery on, there is no level Mario 3 for every word! Even Nintendo didn't mention it!
This masterpiece that has sold millions in Japan and more than 17 million in the world disappeared out of thin air on October 23, 88, 88 years!
