Chapter 202: Let Sony Die (Three More Requests for Subscriptions and Monthly Passes)
"Mr. Yang, I suggest you think carefully!" Zhao Yongping solemnly suggested, and the others echoed it, and they had no way to predict the future, so they could only persuade it like this, but there were still two years to think about it, and no one could say whether Yang Yun would change his mind after two years.
Yang Yun looked at these classic games, just like looking at his beautiful memories when he was young, after being reborn, he fought and grabbed all of them into his own hands, just to let himself have no regrets.
He basically did, and with the exception of a limited number of games in the hands of others, the vast majority of classic arcade games were his, or were about to belong.
The death penalty is imposed on people from the moment they are born, and the same is true of arcade games, which are destined to die one day from the day they are born.
Watching them slowly die in his hands, that kind of heartache is not felt by those who have not lost their loved ones, which is also an important reason for his desire to retreat.
In the persuasion of everyone, Yang Yun suddenly thought of Jin Yong, as well as Zhao Bensan at the Spring Festival Gala, Liu Bowen who was a little farther away, and Fan Li who was a little farther away.
There are really very few people who retired at the peak of their careers, created the peak, retreated bravely, saved their lives wisely, and got a good death.
Thinking of Jin Yong, Yang Yun sighed secretly in his heart, the Ming Bao has been sold, this is a real retreat! However, the fifteen martial arts novels in his hand were not given away with Ming Pao, and Yang Yun felt a little relieved.
If his decision remains unchanged after two years and he is determined to sell arcade games, he can learn from Jin Yong and keep the games he is most reluctant to play. For example, the King of Fighters series that he never forgets. These games involve literary copyright and animation copyright, just like the Legend of the Condor Heroes to Jin Yong.
Don't think about that for now. Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, let go of this tangled and heart-wrenching proposition, and continued: "Next is Sony. I said earlier that Sony would be our biggest competitor, and I wasn't alarmist. Wang Zhe, please give me a detailed report on Sony's recent developments. ”
Wang Zhe cleared his throat and introduced: "Since Nintendo betrayed Sony and cooperated with Philips to develop CD-SFC, we Sega contacted Sony for the first time and reached a cooperation agreement. Sony offers CD standards. We make a mainframe, and we share jishu to jointly develop a new type of mainframe in 32-bit CD format. ”
"But the biggest contradiction between Sony and Nintendo has shifted to our Sega, and that is the game copyright. Sony demanded that a portion of the copyright of every CD game belong to Sony, and Nintendo rejected the proposal, so they split. Now, when Sony is working with us, it is tentative to continue to propose this plan, but we have also delayed it. ”
Yang Yun and Hayato Nakayama nodded. Of course, this was unanimously agreed, Sony did not want to make any profit from console games, and Sega and Nintendo had the same intention of turning Sony into a pure hardware supplier. Instead of competitors who can share software rights with themselves!
Wang Zhe continued: "In the early days of the cooperation, Sony, who was difficult to ride the tiger, could only compromise and exchanged a lot of jishu standards with us about graphics processing and CD standards. But lately, they've been restless again. Forcefully demand that we take a stand! I didn't answer them for the time being, citing the GameGear anniversary. has been delayed until now. ”
The uninformed people looked nervous, and everyone didn't want Sony to get involved in the mix, and the property rights were not clear, which was the most likely to cause evil consequences and disputes.
"Okay, I'll make a statement first!" Yang Yun took over the words, pouted and said, "Let Sonny die!" ”
Forehead......
Everyone didn't react for a while, Ma Liang couldn't help laughing, which caused everyone to laugh non-stop.
"They were wrong! Nintendo is not a soft persimmon, and our Sega is not bullied! Yang Yun was indignant: "You still want to take advantage of us, Sony is the wrong person!" ”
Hayao Nakayama also made do: "Kutaragi Ken, this guy is too much!" How polite we were to him at the beginning, but he repeatedly made excessive demands and was aggressive, no wonder we refused! I'm against it too! ”
"Agreed! I refuse too! Can't be cheaper Sony! ”
"That's right! It's better to get Sony out of the TV game industry! ”
"Mr. Yang, we are not even afraid of Nintendo, what are we afraid of Sony? If they want to come in, we'll beat them up! ”
"Friends come with wine, and when the wolf comes, there are shotguns! Playing Nintendo is also fighting, and then Sony, let's fight together! ”
Yang Yun suppressed these people, and smiled secretly in his heart, it seems that Sega and Longteng are getting better and better, and everyone is full of confidence!
He is the only one who knows Sonny's horrors, so others can shout and die, but he can't be hot-headed and call for a general attack, as a decision-maker, he must think of all the possibilities and make the best choice for himself.
"Sony absolutely does not want to become a pure hardware supplier, Sony's entertainment department, multimedia department, and game department led by Ken Kutaragi will definitely make a three-dimensional entertainment empire with all-round sea, land and air in the future, which is the overall operation."
"But we don't have to be afraid of them, we also have the cooperation of the animation and film industries, and it may involve hardware in the future, and we will not fall behind in the ring with Sony, but we need to delay Sony's entry as much as possible."
Yang Yun took Wang Zhe's notebook, flipped through the jihua books, pointed to one of them and said: "The Jihua of our Sega's 32-bit Saturn console was launched in 1994, which is too slow, and I put forward a hard request, which must be taken out in 1993, so as to give me enough time to deal with Sony." ”
"And what about the current collaboration with Sony?" Wang Zhe's biggest headache is this, it is impossible to turn a blind eye to the urging of Jiu Ta Liang Mu Jian, there must be an explanation.
Yang Yun laughed: "Continue to drag, we can verbally promise to share the game patent, but we can't sign a formal contract." We can take as much jishu as we can from Sony, and when they can't stand it anymore and offer to break up, we will pretend to keep it and continue to delay. In addition, Shaoyun, you and Liangyu went to Europe to visit the senior management of Philips, and said that we Sega are willing to cooperate with Philips! ”
What the!
Everyone thought they had heard it wrong, but what was going on?
Nintendo and Sony cooperated, and Sega watched the excitement.
Nintendo and Sony fell out and went to Philips, and Sega contacted Sony to cooperate.
Now that Nintendo and Philips are working together well, Sega is perfunctory to Sony on the one hand, and Philips on the other hand?
Others don't know, how could Yang Yun not know?
Where in real history was SFC in CD format so easy to launch?
The fall of Nintendo, it can be said that it started from this incident, they abandoned Sony, offended Sony, and Zuihou's own cooperation with Philips was also lost, and they could only continue to develop cassette games that had become outdated.
Since Sony is destined to become a strong opponent between Sega and Nintendo, Yang Yun took advantage of Sony when it was down, misled and misled it by the way, delayed it, and bought himself enough time to develop 32-rank Saturn, only in this way can he fight against the ferocious attack of PS.
And Philips, Yang Yun can only hehe, Nintendo abandons Philips again, then Sega will take over, the CD standard is formulated by Philips and Sony, let's make a transitional version of CD-MD, and then when the VCD standard is formulated, Sega must be involved, and then go it alone!
"Don't worry, that old guy in Yamauchi Pu is not so easy to compromise." Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back in his chair and said: "Unless Philips is a subsidiary of Nintendo, it will be in vain for Nintendo to cooperate with anyone, this is Nintendo's domineering!" ”
There's nothing more to say, so I can only try to contact the senior management of Philips and touch the details of the other party.
After these contents are determined, Longteng's high-level meeting will be much easier.
With a smile on his face, Yang Yun listened to the reports brought by the executives.
Jiang Shaoyun's American Dragon Toys Company has launched a number of games, in addition to the wind and forest bags of the Three Kingdoms, Bang! The Brett Town expansion pack has also been launched, which, similar to the Wind Pack, adds several new characters to Brett Town, adds props and trick cards, and improves playability.
In addition, the Parker brothers have made great contributions, the professional team is different, and the Pokemon battle cards designed by Tajiri have been unanimously praised by the insiders, Jiang Shaoyun has already got the model, authorized in all shijie, Parker Brothers started production with full firepower, and toy dealers around the country have paid tens of millions of dollars in advance in advance, just waiting for the global unified listing.
Fengyun Games has a particularly large autonomy this year, arcade has developed arcade games in the category of flying shooting, leveling, and sports competition, and one street basketball has even received a high rating of CESA8.5, which is deeply loved by players.
In addition, in half a year, 214 ordinary games on the Sega MD platform passed the Sega game quality management system, and Hayabusa Nakayama took over all of them, and according to the principle of giving priority to excellent games, the launch of jihua was arranged to the second half of the year.
Longteng headquarters is even more incredible, after the battle of Chibi was completed, these guys took the initiative to take over the outsourcing of several RPG games, this is the most important project of Longteng this year, so many RPG games were launched together, it feels terrifying to think about.
The Legend of Heroes series of Dragon Soar and Pharaoh Control is about to enter the final testing stage, the Ys transplant has been completed, Dragon Teng and Square Enix's Final Fantasy 123 has completed the MD port, and the classic Final Fantasy 4 is also about to enter the final testing stage.
Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief, the seeds sown in the spring, it's time to harvest now, let's start with the anniversary celebration of GameGear, so haode and Nintendo they fight! (To be continued......)
