Chapter 376: The Best Booth
These side doors are designed to be the same as the walls. There is only a gap visible from the outside, and it is really designed to let people run out quietly.
Wang Buying, Zhou Yi and others rushed out, and without waiting for the protesters over there to react, they quickly rushed to the bus waiting outside. The bus immediately started and headed for the convention center.
The employees of Celadon Technology are all young people in their twenties, who have never seen strong winds and waves, and they all look at the protesters through their windows. The programmer who informed Wang Buyi in the morning suddenly spoke: "The bald man who organized them is not here?" ”
The programmer was talking about the middle-aged man who had breakfast at McDonald's, apparently the leader of the protests. I really didn't see it.
Others don't care too much, if they're not there, they're gone, what's the big deal.
As a result, when I arrived at the convention center in Los Angeles, I saw the bald middle-aged man again.
The middle-aged man also organized a group of people outside the convention and exhibition center, holding a protest sign.
Zhou Yi angrily scolded: "X's is crazy? Is he Japanese or Chinese? Why can't you get along with us? ”
The hard-earned game, looking for the information collected by so many anti-Japanese war veterans, was smeared as "lies" and "brainwashing" by people holding signs. Who can feel good in their hearts?
Moreover, this is not only sad, but also face-saving!
E3 will open tomorrow. At that time, the most senior gamers and game media in the United States will gather here. As a result, when I saw a bunch of people protesting against "My Anti-Japan" at the door, didn't you die of laughter?
"God, we can pay some little ruffians to beat them!" Zhou Yi was enthusiastic. Come up with an idea.
"Nonsense." The king did not say a word of veto. To use this method against those ground snakes is equivalent to picking up a basin of dirty water and pouring it on your head.
Those protesters did not want to directly surround Wang and his party, at least they did not storm the main entrance of the convention and exhibition center. But even so, the exhibition party is like a big enemy, for fear of accidents. Fortunately, the bus of Celadon Technology drove in smoothly.
Wait for Wang to finally enter the venue. First of all, I looked at the position he booked in the West End from the hall, and it felt really good. Just hang up a large TV and you can see the image from the outside. It should be able to maximize the effect of the exquisite opening CG of "Stunning Country".
At this time, there was a man in the hall, holding a mobile phone, and talking loudly in Japanese.
There are more Japanese speakers on E3. Nothing strange. The point is that the man's eyes are very peculiar. stared at Wang Bucheng very fiercely, and the muscles on his face twitched, as if Wang Bucheng had a deep hatred with him.
The king was surprised and asked the female translator, "What did he say?" ”
Celadon Technology brought two translators this time. The female translator among them is a genius in linguistics. Able to understand seven Chinese languages. He is fluent in three foreign languages and is extremely strong.
The female translator listened and said, "The man is talking about money on the phone. It's important to say that there is a booth. It's worth paying a fortune to rent. ”
"It wasn't the gang out there who got in!" Wang Buyi breathed a sigh of relief.
Ignoring the Japanese, Wang Buyi led people into the Western District. I saw that many people from major Japanese manufacturers stopped their work and looked at it in unison.
The Japanese game industry is small and we all know each other. Suddenly, a group of people who don't know each other must be China's celadon technology.
Suddenly, many people had expressions on their faces that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Those outside who protested against "Far Eastern Battlefield: The Final Chapter" were really a Western scene. Tomorrow E3 officially opens, and players who come here will see how funny it is.
After Wang Buyi came in, he carefully observed the booth with the best location, and then went to find the location of the target software. Say hello to the two Chinese manufacturers participating in E3.
Nishi-ku is the world of Japanese manufacturers. The booth of the target software was placed in a very corner, and if it weren't for the four Chinese characters that were very eye-catching, Wang Bucheng wouldn't have seen it. He walked over first and looked at the target software.
Zhang Chunzheng of the target software had a sad face, and when he looked at the three-dimensional map in China, he only felt that the position was a little off, but when he really came to the venue to see it, he realized how tricky the position was. From the outside, you can only see the name of the target software company on the booth from a distance, and other propaganda and other things are blocked by the surrounding Japanese manufacturers.
Tomorrow E3 opens, and it is estimated that not many American players will be able to wander around this corner.
Zhang Chun saw Wang Buying, and said with a forced smile: "Great God, you are here." ”
"How? Is the booth set up okay? Wang Bubu looked at the booth of the target software, and the layout was very simple, with posters and six or seven portable computers, which contained the demo version of "Three Kingdoms 2" for players to try.
Zhang Chun's face immediately fell, and he complained: "Great god, I was trapped." This should be the worst booth, no wonder no Japanese grabbed it! ”
Wang Bubu couldn't help but smile bitterly, the two of them were the eldest brother and the second brother, and they were both bloodied. He said: "I still have to sign up for the booth now, so I won't talk about it." We'll have dinner together at noon. ”
Wang Buyi returned to the booth he had set, and at this time, in addition to the employees of Celadon Technology, many people came there.
Wang lived up to the project manager at Villefort. Wang went over and shook hands with him and asked, "What happened?" ”
"This booth is not only favored by you, but also by this gentleman." The project manager pointed to a Japanese man. The Japanese was the one who had been speaking Japanese loudly in the hall just now, and he was glaring at the king.
Wang Buyi understood, "Where has the price of rent risen?" ”
Without waiting for the project manager to answer, the Japanese shouted to the people at the exhibition: "I can give 65,000 to this booth!" Please be sure to give us this booth at Dongmu Games, this location is very important for a new game company! ”
The person at the exhibition party held a large folder and nodded with a smile, but ignored the Japanese and turned to look at Wang Buyi.
"I'll give 70,000." Wang Bubu said directly.
He saw that the Japanese were asking for funds just now, and after begging for a long time, he quoted a price of 65,000, which showed that the funds were very restricted. Wang Bubu was too lazy to take his time, and directly raised it by five thousand to see the situation.
There is still a little money, in order to hang a big TV on this booth, let Wang not pay 100,000 a day.
The man who played the winter wood game really couldn't keep up with this price, staring at Wang Bucheng so hard that his teeth were about to be crushed. The direct increase of 5,000 means that I have to call the Japanese headquarters again to apply for funds.
Wang Buyi knew that the person couldn't afford it for the time being, so he asked the exhibition party: "Can I sign a contract now?" E3 is going to start tomorrow and we're running out of time. ”
Unwillingly, the man from Fuyuki Games glanced at the booth and looked at a Japanese man at Sony's booth with a pleading look.
The Sony employee hesitated, walked up to Wang Bucheng and introduced himself: "I am the deputy director of Sony's game development department, and I am very happy to see emerging game companies from Asia come to participate in E3. ”
So the Japanese who had been staring at Wang just now ran out to call again and apply for funds.
Wang was stunned. It's true that Sony is a giant, but the one in front of him is just a "deputy chief".
Although I don't know what the position of the "deputy chief" is in a Japanese-style company, he is certainly not a real leader in the game department, let alone a figure in the Sony Group.
Such a small role, at the critical juncture when Wang was about to sign the booth, ran over to interrupt with great pride? What does this man want to do?
The deputy minister thought very highly of himself, and felt that Wang would definitely nod and give the business card. If you don't have a business card, at worst you can bow or shake hands.
Then the deputy minister was also surprised, what happened to this Chinese in front of him? In the face of the real power figures of Sony Games, they actually opened their eyes and "made stupid"?
At present, the most popular game platform is Ps2. If you get on this platform, the sales will definitely go crazy. But in order to make a game for this platform, you have to get the development software first.
And this deputy director, who is responsible for optimizing the development of software, is definitely the real power figure in Sony games. Even many manufacturers in the United States have to curry favor with a smile on their faces when they see him.
Doesn't this Chinese know how powerful? The deputy secretary repeated the introduction of himself, emphasizing the words "development department".
Japanese game console manufacturers have a cold attitude towards the Chinese company Celadon Technology. As long as China's console ban is not touched, it is unlikely that they will support Chinese games. But this attitude is only known to them, and in the second term, these Chinese must have sharpened their heads and wanted to join the Ps2 platform.
In this way, the second chief will listen to flattery, and time will be delayed. The president of Toki Games can also apply for the new price.
It's not that the Chinese can't see the best position, holding back to get celadon technology, and the people of Sony are not so boring. The point is that Japanese game manufacturers also have internal struggles. This time, Nintendo is going to launch a new game console "GameCube". Sony doesn't have a new console, so it's going to launch a lot of exclusive games in response.
The Ps2 exclusive game made by the East Wood Club is of good quality. If it is placed in the most conspicuous position, it can at least suppress Nintendo's arrogance a little.
It's a good idea, but Wang doesn't care about the console platform at all. In the face of the deputy minister's introduction, Wang Buyi just nodded and said: "I am the founder of Celadon Technology, Wang Buful." We can talk when we have time. ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at the exhibition party and asked, "Can I sign a contract?" ”
Immediately, Sony's second chief was angry. He has a full sense of superiority in the face of game dealers, and he is used to being high, and no one stammers suddenly, and he is not used to it suddenly.
This vendetta is written! The second chief walked away with a gloomy face. As a game provider, there will always be a day when Chinese companies will plead with hardware vendors! Wait and see!
"Do you want to wait a little longer?" Said the person from the exhibition party. He could clearly see that a Japanese man had gone out to negotiate the price, and when he came back, he would be able to increase it a little more.
"So he adds some money, I add some money, until when?" Wang Bubu could not wait until the Japanese came back, so it was not possible to go endlessly, looked around at the people around him and said: "This booth, I will go out for 70,000 a day!" Who has the higher price? (To be continued......)
