Chapter 193: November, the giants are in the sky!
Good news always comes by the blue, and bad news follows you.
Sega's top management was not aware of Nintendo's intentions in the slightest, and in fact, according to history, no one knew that Mario 3 had been opened before October 23.
Everyone in the Qin Dynasty is doing everything they can to spy on Nintendo's actions. Qin Yuanfeng just appeared, it turned out that the connections of the Qin Dynasty were so thin.
I don't know. No news. There are no abnormalities......
Every piece of unclear news is actually the worst news.
"On October 23rd, the president of Nintendo's top ten quality sequences, six of which mass sequences, came to Nintendo in person. At seven o'clock in the evening, one of the Five Tigers of Nintendo, one of the five Tigers of Capcom, Kenzo Tsujimoto, the head of the opening department, and Yoshiki Okamoto, the leader of the first and second group of the Kai, came to Nintendo in person and stayed at the Heiankyo headquarters for three consecutive days...... Still ...... Heiankyo to this day"
In the empty office, Qin Yuanfeng looked at this information with an expressionless face, and then pinched the lighter hard, lit the fire, and burned it himself.
Level Mario ...... He opened the curtains with a "hula", and the refreshing wind blew in, but it couldn't blow away the heaviness in his heart.
He couldn't think of any reason for the seven mass sequences to gather at Nintendo except for the postponement of Nintendo's god work, which caused everyone's uneasiness!
Just as Yamauchi Pu reversed his thoughts after CES, he was also pushing back this seemingly inconspicuous plot, however, the conclusions he came to made him unhappy anyway.
He reached into his pocket and tried to light another cigarette, but there was no more cigarette in the cigarette case.
"." He cursed, crumpled the cigarette case, and threw it into the trash.
His eyes were like knives, looking at the scenery of Hong Kong outside the window, and he gritted his teeth.
Nintendo blocked all the news! But for a prophet like him, this blockade represents an invisible affirmation!
"October 28th......" he looked at the calendar in the house: "There are three days to go......"
"Three days to go...... You can know this Christmas...... Nintendo's sales lineup! β
"Is it war, is it peace? That...... will get the results! β
Time passed day by day, and Qin Yuanfeng did not give other instructions to the company, but the hearts of all the high-level executives were worried about November 1st.
Three days later, November 1st!
Qin Yuanfeng was sitting in the office, and suddenly, the phone rang.
"Is it Qin Jun?"
A voice of eight winds did not move, and Qin Yuanfeng only listened to it for a moment, and then sneered.
"Minoru Arakawa." He secretly snapped his fists, and there was a crisp sound of "Kaba": "This time, I have learned." β
"Oh?" Minoru Arakawa chuckled softly: "What do you teach?" β
"Enlightened ......" Qin Yuanfeng grinded his teeth and smiled: "Nintendo's solipsism, and your eyes will be repaid." β
"Overrated." There was no trace of emotion in Minoru Arakawa's voice, whether it was anger or pleasure: "Qin Jun...... And that's just the beginning...... Don't think that's the end of ......"
"Whoever dares to do something to me, you are the first and the last."
"If I don't divide your five horses, how can I calm the anger in my heart?" He finally laughed: "I'm going to ...... Destroy your dreams with your own hands...... Let everyone in the electronic entertainment industry see what it is like to be a war horse in front of Nintendo. β
Qin Yuanfeng sneered: "Then you have to be careful, don't be kicked in the teeth by the war horse, and you won't be able to go out for a few weeks." β
"It's a pity, but taming horses, especially fierce horses, is a little hobby." Arakawa said with a smile: "At the Nintendo meeting at three o'clock in the afternoon, I think, Qin Jun should be very interested." If Qin Jun watched in front of the TV, I would feel extremely honored. β
"Click" the phone hangs up.
Qin Yuanfeng held the microphone and didn't put it on the landline for a long time.
"Can't hide...... After a long time, he gently put down the landline, but a terrifying light flashed in his eyes: "Since you can't dodge, let's do it!" β
"Minoru Arakawa, your determination to bring the Qin Dynasty to death is beyond my expectations. But even if my opponent is so strong, I will never admit defeat lightly! β
"Quality games, but not only Mario!"
Heian-kyo, October 1, 3pm, Kempinski Hotel.
The crowd was crowded, and the industry leader Nintendo held a press conference, and no one knew why, but it didn't stop them from coming.
Reporters from major newspapers, magazines, and FamI almost blocked the small hall.
"Hey! Make way of place! I came here from Nevada on purpose. "Sir, do you see if you can move here?" βsTopοΌ sTopοΌ You've touched my tripod! β
Tripods and cameras are facing the main stage like cannon barrels, and there is a row of conspicuous seats.
On the seats, almost all of the seats have a name plate in front of them, but at this moment, they are also facing away from everyone, and they can't be seen at all.
At three o'clock, the bell struck punctually, and almost at the same moment, a group of people walked up from the side door of the main table.
"Nintendo Executive Committee!" At the moment when they came out, the sound of "clicking" in the entire venue resounded throughout the audience, and countless flashing lights lit up almost at the same time, forming a dazzling thunder light!
"Hello everyone, I'm Minoru Arakawa, the host of this press conference." Minoru Arakawa walked in the front, and behind him, were Genhiro Takeda, Hitohiro Mori, Nobushi Hatano, and Satoshi Iwata.
"Master Miyamoto has something that he can't attend, so I'll preside over it on my behalf."
He habitually waved his hand, not paying attention, and even looked at the excited crowd of reporters with a sense of satisfaction, after all, except for the "father of Mario" Master Miyamoto Shigeru, all the members of the executive committee were present in person, which was extremely rare.
They control more than 8o% of the third parties in the current market, and these few people decide the life and death of the third party!
Very good...... There was a hint of deep ruthlessness hidden in his elegant smile.
Very good...... The more people who come, the better...... Qin Jun...... You must be looking at me in front of the TV right now...... I'm going to shatter your last illusions in front of everyone......
It's like CES peeling off my plan in front of the world's top electronics companies.
You have to taste it for yourself!
Five people sat down on the main stage, Minoru Arakawa in the center, and the others lined up.
"Everyone." Arakawa raised his hands and pressed it lightly in the snow-white flashing lights, and the light was as sudden as when it came, and the tide receded in a matter of seconds.
The lens of each camera was aimed at Minoru Arakawa, and even the sound of breathing could be heard at the scene.
In front of the TV, Sega, Yu Suzuki, Hayao Nakayama, and a group of directors and shareholders of the company, who were far away in Tokyo, were sitting in front of the TV, watching this rare Nintendo committee gathering with a solemn look.
In Hong Kong, Qin Yuanfeng was in his apartment, sitting on the sand with a cigarette and watching TV with a hint of cold light. Yamato Nadeshiko, who had come from Japan overnight, sat on the sand not far away, and the cigarette of the lady on her fingertips had accumulated a long amount of soot, but she forgot to play it.
All over Japan, from Hokkaido to Shikoku, as long as there is a game business, every pair of eyes are looking at these industry leaders.
Under the slight adjustment of the focal length, under the gaze of the camera like a rain of bullets, Minoru Arakawa finally opened his mouth.
"Today, it's Nintendo's 88 Christmas schedule game lineup conference."
As soon as the voice fell, everyone looked at each other at the bottom of the venue.
The '88 Christmas schedule game lineup is not very large, and this is not a Nintendo game press conference. So...... What about other manufacturers?!
Except for Nintendo, none of the other manufacturers have arrived!
Whether it's Namco, Capcom, or Enix!
None of them cheered for Nintendo! Instead, the Nintendo Executive Committee is all here!
"There's a problem! Definitely there is a problem! The reporters, who were as sensitive as cats, suddenly asked the fishy smell, don't give Nintendo face on this occasion? This has never been done before! Except for Nintendo and Sega, other third parties are not qualified to hold game conferences, and all manufacturers give up this opportunity to increase visibility and show their faces, why?
"Kakaka!" The flash was shining again, and an anxious reporter had already shouted: "May I ask Mr. Arakawa, why haven't other game manufacturers arrived?" β
"It's not time to ask questions now." Takeda Genyo frowned unabashedly: "Please follow the rules. β
Arakawa said without hesitation.
"It is no exaggeration to call this lineup luxurious. Below, is the list of cloths. β
"Final Fantasy 2, Turkey Fight, Circus, Bomb Man 2, Metal Gear Solid ......"
After reading the list, a white reporter shook his head and whispered in confusion: "That's right?" This luxury can also be talked about casually? This lineup, without Dragon Quest, without Contra, barely bombing/bombing people is not bad, how can it be called luxurious? β
The Japanese reporter next to him also scratched his head suspiciously: "Inexplicable...... However, compared to Sega's MD, it is really luxurious...... That's what he meant, right? β
Minoru Arakawa closed the document gently.
There was no superfluous expression on his face, and the false smile was as good as ever, it was his survival skill, as natural as breathing.
But in his heart, a flame called resentment has been ignited!
His gaze swept over everyone.
Qin Jun...... You're watching, right? You must be watching in front of the TV, right?
What a pity...... I can't see your crying expression......
In his heart, he can't wait!
"Other than that......" Ignoring the whispers below, Arakawa Minoru said lightly, but eagerly, "There is another game that has been decided to be sold." β
The whispering stopped abruptly, and he smiled with satisfaction: "Its name is not on this list." β
"Or rather, it doesn't need to build momentum to raise its reputation."
His eyes were like eagles: "Level Mario 3, it has been put on the cloth date!" Fifty dollars! β
Silence, death-like silence.
All the journalists, all of them are senior journalists in the world of electronic entertainment, or in the world of electronics, how do they not know what level Mario is.
