Chapter 380: Zombie Siege VS Resident Evil
Shinji Mikami and Yoshio Inoue went back to build the game framework, which was a technical job, and they planned to try to transfer and modify the game model of "Tomb Raider" so that everyone would be familiar with it.
Yang Yun waited patiently, he knew that the project team would definitely have a headache, and he would definitely come back to him to redefine the way of playing, because the biggest problem was in the game level.
Tomb Raider 1 is divided into 20 levels, and the number of modeling for each level is acceptable to programmers.
And "Resident Evil 1" is in a single map throughout, interspersed with rich puzzles throughout the game, and it will take hours to get to grips with it, not to mention novice players who can't even walk the road.
In this way, the overall modeling capacity of Resident Evil will exceed the modeling of a single level of Tomb Raider by more than 50 times, plus the constantly resurrected zombies, highly intelligent AI enemies, extremely complex research institutes, power distribution rooms, boarding dormitories, shark pools, plant 42, tsk, Yang Yun seems to see the scene where Inoue Yanxiong has a black line and Shinji Mikami is sweating profusely.
It doesn't matter, don't touch the south wall and don't look back, now Yang Yun's most urgent thing is to inquire about Fujiwara Tokuro's news, the news brought by Shinji Mikami is very timely, Yang Yun is actually a little looking forward to Fujiwara Tokuro doing things for Sony, so everyone will make the same game, and then it will be Mars hitting the earth, and he is enthusiastic!
Wang Zhe soon found out in Japan that Fujiwara Tokuro was not at Sony, but was inextricably linked to Sony, and he founded a small game company called Whoopee-Camp.
Yang Yun recalled it carefully, and he didn't remember that this small company wouldn't last long.
"Is Tokuro Fujiwara sure of his choice? Forget it, don't be sure. If this guy is willing to do things for us, he won't leave. Yang Yun said. He was helpless.
Wang Zhe said on the phone: "I asked about this in person, but Fujiwara Tokuro was a little resistant. He didn't want to answer me head-on. But I got information from Sony insiders that a month ago, a CEO fund was remitted to Fujiwara's private account, and it was supposed that Sony secretly sponsored him to start a company in exchange for a certain game idea. ”
Yang Yun said: "OK, I know. Continue to inquire about the specific content of the contract, find out what the original content of the game they are going to cooperate with, and report back to me in time! ”
Hanging up the phone, Yang Yun contacted Zhao Yongping. learned that he was now in the China Association for Science and Technology, so he took his secretary to call the driver Lao Chen and went to the China Association for Science and Technology together.
The Fifth National Computer Industry Summit will be held around May every year, and it will definitely be too late now, so Zhao Yongping can only hope to call for it in the name of the Computer Association under the China Association for Science and Technology, which has a loud reputation and does not involve political factors.
"Elder Wang, Director Qian Deliang of the Beijing Animation and Game Industrial Park has made it clear that he doesn't know, and we can only find your big tree to shelter from the wind and rain!" Zhao Yongping is still very respectful. No way, the China Association for Science and Technology is a system directly under the central government, responsible for all the scientific and technological workers' associations in the country, and the Computer Association is also one of them.
It is necessary to make the name of the National Computer Association. At the very least, it is necessary to inform the competent department at a higher level, so as not to touch the interests of some people without knowing it, so that everyone will not be able to deal with it. That's when it was embarrassing.
Wang Lao trembled and touched the reading glasses on the table, and put them on. Squinted at Zhao Yongping and Yang Yun, and asked, "What did you say?" ”
Zhao Yongping thought that the old man couldn't hear it. He said it out loud again, and this time Wang Lao took off his reading glasses again, plucked out his ears, and said self-deprecatingly: "Hey, people are old, they really can't hear anything, they can't see anything...... Hey, out of sight and out of mind, go back, don't get me in trouble......"
Yang Yun was still stunned, Zhao Yongping was such a shrewd person, he immediately understood what he meant, and pulled Yang Yun to leave with a smile.
As soon as they walked out of the door of the office, Mr. Wang's back was no longer hunched, and his eyes were no longer dazzled, he strode to the telephone landline next to him, thinking about broadcasting a call: "Director Qiao, I'm Lao Wang!" You follow the affairs of the Computer Association, Longteng has a big move, don't embarrass them, try to cooperate as much as possible! Yes, that's all! ”
Wang Lao has a smile on his face, his voice is loud, and the rocker is straight, where is he an old and dizzy person?
"Let's go, Mr. Yang! Wang Lao is the director of learning money, and he wants to play out of sight and out of mind! Zhao Yongping reminded and couldn't help laughing: "The performance is quite similar, if he really can't hear or see it, why don't you ask us about our intentions?" ”
Yang Yun suddenly realized this, smiled and shook his head, these Chinese, expressing the problem is really subtle!
With the acquiescence of the higher-level authorities, it will be much easier to do the following, in the name of the National Computer Association, issue an industry proposal, and pull several industry giants, the software industry is Lenovo, Kingsoft, SMIC and other giants, the game industry is what five tigers and four heroes and other dragon cooperation enterprises, lively and lively to make a Chinese computer enterprise convention.
In fact, in addition to Longteng, what can these companies make a fuss? No! They were all blindly coaxed, and Yang Yun never expected them to help much.
But at this moment, what is inferior to Longteng is momentum, the bigger the better, first, it can make a gesture, scare and scare the Japanese side, and in addition, it can also hide people's eyes and ears, so that the enemy does not know what is going on.
Kutaragi Ken sat in his office, holding a copy of the contents of the convention from China, and looked at it in confusion.
"Work together, unite as one, and take the development of core competitiveness as our own responsibility...... China's originality, starting from me...... Promote Chinese culture and promote the prestige of our country...... There is no vicious competition among peers, and there is no blind price reduction...... Organize an industry open training every year to attract more young people to join the game industry...... The Sunshine Foundation established the Game Industry Creative Award and held the ...... for the selection of the Game Creative Technology Award for College Students, Middle School Students, and Primary School Students.
In this convention, there are slogans, corporate behavior constraints, long-term sustainable and benign development proposals, and specific implementation project descriptions.
However, no matter how fanciful it is, it is only a convention, and what is required is corporate self-discipline.
However, it is easy for enterprises to sign, but it is not easy to do, and even the law cannot bind things, how can an industry convention limit it?
And the specific implementation rules are more like activities sponsored by private companies, and it is clear that if they cannot be approved by the Chinese Ministry of Education, these creative science and technology awards will be judged as amateur awards, and the awards and trophies and certificates will not be recognized by the education system at all, and will not be favored by parents.
What exactly is Longteng doing?
There are many things that I can't figure out, and Kutaragi Ken put down this text and pondered.
"President, President Fujiwara has arrived." The secretary's knock on the door woke up Ken Kutaragi, who was followed by Tokuro Fujiwara.
Fujiwara Tokuro sat down and said with a sad face, "President Kutaraki, I'm under a lot of pressure right now...... President Wang of Fengyun Game Software Company came to the door many times. If I don't sign an exclusive contract with them, then I can't use the original Capcom or Fengyun technology, or I'll go to court. If I sign a contract, they will not only be willing to provide the latest and most complete development package for free, but they will also give out a generous reward......"
Kutara Mujian has long been scolded in his heart, he hated Wang Zhe this person, the title of "black heart king" in Japan for three or four years, not according to common sense to play cards, ruthless work, endless tricks, a gang of Chinese work hard, overtime never complains about tiredness, and the cost of all products is at least 30% cheaper than Japanese companies, forcing large and medium-sized game companies throughout Japan to suffer, no one is not afraid to compete with him.
"Don't worry! Sony has your back, and if you can't stand the pressure, you can disband the company and come directly to me with the project, so you don't have to worry about anything. Kutaragi Ken said that at this time he still wanted to fight for all the benefits in his hands.
Fujiwara Tokuro hesitated, he left Fengyun Company because of Sony's instigation, promising him great prospects, advanced development platforms, and a generous start-up capital, which Sony did do.
But to get the benefits of Sony, you have to work hard for Sony, you have to face a behemoth, Wang Zhe of Fengyun Company personally came to warn him not to go against Longteng, which Sony can't solve, when the two sides signed the contract, they didn't mention this kind of ending, after signing the contract, Sony gave him a sum of money and a bunch of development kits and ignored it, which was far from what he imagined!
He couldn't stand this pressure, Wang Zhe's strength, Longteng's terrible, Okamoto Yoshiki's death, Capcom and Konami's bankruptcy, this qiē all brought him to the brink of collapse: "I...... I'd better join Sony......"
Kutaragi Ken smiled: "I believe this is the right choice for you!" ”
On January 10, 1995, Japan's Sony Games announced that the number of games it had signed contracts with had reached 450, and acquired Whoopee-Camp to develop a 3D version of the AVG game "Zombie Siege"!
When the news reached Yang Yun's ears, he couldn't help but laugh.
Interesting, quite interesting, two video game companies started making the same type of horror game almost at the same time, and it's really, well, very exciting confrontation!
""Zombie Siege", hum, I hope you are not using the original "Resident Evil" project!" Yang Yun looked at this information and said to himself: "Also, I hope that the zombies you make can really scare people!" Come, we're going to have more places than we want! ”
On January 11th, not to be outdone, Longteng Entertainment Game Company announced that the 3D version of the AVG game "Resident Evil" was officially established in 1995 in Longteng's most important game!
For a while, the global game industry practitioners and players who were concerned about the dragon rope dispute immediately became very interested!
This is the first time that Sega, the king of the sky, and Sony, a rookie who has skyrocketed in popularity, are competing against each other in the same game type and the same game content, and everyone wants to know which company makes a zombie game that is more attractive to players!
The first move, the result is crucial! (To be continued......)
