Chapter 484: Square Enix will be deployed for six years

Yang Yun said with some emotion: "Some people say that I blame, the game production company is not good at making games, and if you have to make movies, the weirdos will only toss." Some people say that I am crazy, I am not from the professional film industry, and I think that I want to find a group of young men and take out a few stinky money, so I want to get a piece of the film entertainment industry. Some people hate me and hate me, saying that I don't play my cards according to common sense, that I don't know what is important, and that I muddy the game and entertainment industry. ”

Some people in the audience smiled knowingly, especially Lin Zhihong, he is the most powerful in the limelight, the newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, and he really made Longteng Entertainment Film Company a special and well-known weird enterprise in the world.

"Actually, I compare myself to a catfish, and I am a species of an alien planet, in the words of the older generation, I am restless, and it is my character to muddy the water. I like another way of saying it, I like people to praise us for divergent thinking and innovation. ”

"The most important thing in Longteng company is creativity, and we have sent a small book to each employee, which is to let them record the ideas in their heads anytime and anywhere. It doesn't matter if these ideas and ideas are useful or not, whether they will be adopted or not, and whether they are programmers, cleaners, or security guards, everyone can pitch ideas to the game planning department, so our games are the best and most popular in the world. ”

"Games need to be constantly innovating, and so are movies. We also had no one to understand, to be despised by others, and to make a science fiction movie for the first time. Tens of millions of dollars are invested without a clear chance of success. The crew couldn't sleep, and the investors were so worried that they lost their hair. The programmers worked overtime day and night to tackle the technology, and everyone gritted their teeth to get through this hurdle. In the end, it was a big success, making "Cadillac and Dinosaurs", which can almost be fake, and it became the highest-grossing dinosaur movie in history! ”

"After so many years of operation, I understand a truth, we can't be imprisoned by old ideas, we can't let the rules and regulations bind us, breaking the conventional thinking is the only way out, we have to make movies an important carrier of spiritual civilization construction! So don't blame me, don't think I'm crazy. Intel CEO Andy Grove said that only paranoia can survive, and Longteng is one of them! ”

"Finally, thanks to the support of the country, "The Expendables 2" has not been cut in any way, and it is synchronized with the whole world, and we are at the forefront of the world! Thank you! ”

The applause was thunderous, and the faces of the people were full of smiles, and they were loyal to Long Teng's pride and joy.

This is a decent speech. This is the shrewdness of a sleek Chinese businessman, who infinitely exalts the credit of his boss, but puts all his efforts in second place, and gives the false name that the businessman does not value to the officials above as favors. Keeping the huge benefits to yourself, this cooperation is successful, and everyone is happy. In the future, it will not be difficult to make a movie again......

While everyone laughed knowingly. One of the guests was agitated and clenched his fists. A fire reignited in my heart.

He is Masashi Miyamoto, the president of Square Enix, and at the invitation of Long Teng, he flew thousands of miles from Japan, one is to relax, and the other is to learn from Long Teng's experience in game adaptation movies.

Square Enix's "Final Fantasy: Deep in the Soul" movie has come to an end, to be precise, it should be made to the end, this CG movie is all made by computers, from the end of 1994 to prepare, after the change of the operating system in 1995, and then difficult to enter 1996, Square Enix has invested 120 million US dollars, but it still has not worked!

"Why did Longteng's movie box office do so well? Why are their CG scenes so realistic? No, I'm not reconciled, Square Enix can't lose to his own students! The Final Fantasy signboard can't be smashed in my hands! ”

Seeing Yang Yunguang proudly accepting everyone's congratulations on the stage, hugging people, shaking hands, and waving his arms to thank people for their support to him, Miyamoto Masashi felt indescribably jealous and uncomfortable.

"It turns out that when Longteng was making the first "Cadillac and Dinosaurs", the pressure was also so great, and it was also a small business that no one cared about! It is said that they invested $60 million that year, and they were able to persevere, so why can't we Square Enix persevere? Masashi Miyamoto clenched his fists, his eyes were bloodshot and a little red, and he remembered his situation and was furious.

Square Enix invested in Final Fantasy movies in the past two years, from the initial budget of $20 million, slowly increased to $40 million, and then encountered technical difficulties, adding 15 million to buy the latest equipment and 5 million to buy commercial software, and the cost soared to 60 million.

In 1995, the Windows 95 operating system was launched, and a large number of new technologies poured out, and Square Enix's programmers worked overtime to develop and even overturned some of the research results in the past six months.

But it's not over yet, the new system, new software, and new algorithms have increased the design cost sharply again, 80 million US dollars, 100 million, until now, 120 million US dollars have disappeared, and they only exchanged for a perfect heroine.

The heroine AkiRose is a near-perfect female figure, but Square Enix only gets this heroine alone, the others don't have her long flowing hair, don't have her delicate face, and even each supporting character even has a shabby costume, most of them are tights, just paint the color on the body model, bald head, short hair, hooded man, the difference is obvious.

Miyamoto Masashi is exhausted, he wants to appease the anger of the company's shareholders because of the repeated additional investments, he has to struggle to explain this qiē to the uninformed public, he can't press the programmers, because there are already people who can't bear the pressure, fall ill, take the initiative to resign, and he can't lose more people to do things.

Boil!

The words that Yang Yun said made Miyamoto Masashi feel very deeply, Long Teng had already boiled his head, and then they were on the rise, soaring into the sky.

Square Enix also has to get through this hurdle, as long as they survive, they will definitely be able to get a bigger game adaptation film and television achievement than Longteng, they are the best company in the world to do CG animation!

Only paranoia can survive!

Masashi Miyamoto was excited, he sighed, he thanked Yang Yun for saying this, he decided to use this passage to warn the stubborn shareholders after he went back, those guys only see money in their eyes, if Square Enix is not paranoid, how can he talk about future development!

It's just that no one thought that the words Yang Yun said didn't seem to be nutritious, and they looked ugly, all of them were sycophants to show loyalty and complain about rewards, but they were actually aimed at Miyamoto Masashi.

I can't stop the medicine...... Investment is poison/product, invested 10 million, in order not to let the 10 million go down the drain, you can't help but invest an additional 10 million, and people's hearts are endless, if you want to do your best, you can only keep burning money.

Yang Yun glanced in the direction of the Japanese guest group, a little distracted, and silently said in his heart: "President Miyamoto, Square Enix's demise depends on you, this is a passage I deliberately said for you, only for you alone!" I've been laying out for you for six years, so don't let me down! ”

In the excitement, Yang Yun's inadvertent calmness attracted someone's attention, and Julie came over and said coquettishly with some dissatisfaction: "Yang, obviously the song Elevation is more suitable for "Tomb Raider", are you too eccentric?" ”

Yang Yun came back to his senses and smiled dumbly, Elevation is indeed a song written by the U2 band for the movie "Tomb Raider", but because the movie was filmed 5 years in advance, it is impossible for the U2 band to advance 5 years in advance.

They were inspired to create this song after watching the Tomb Raider movie, which was known to Dragon North America, which had been following them, and directly bought the rights and used it in "The Expendables 2".

Yang Yun can't talk nonsense about this matter, and he also knows that Julie is not such a stingy person: "Julie, in fact, the filming of "Tomb Raider 2" can also be put on the agenda, but you need to go out in person, walk around the R&D department of our headquarters, and convince those boys!" ”

Julie raised her eyebrows, although she was only in her 20s, she had already honed her sleek and clever mind, and immediately agreed to Yang Yun's words: "No problem!" I'll go tomorrow and let them prioritize designing the Tomb Raider game, or I'll have a gun pointed at their heads! ”

The peony flower dies, and the ghost is also romantic! Yang Yun suddenly had this sentence in his heart, and he couldn't help laughing.

The movie is celebrated, followed by the promotion of the game.

At this time, the time is not early, under the construction of the host, the big screen is looping the operation and promotional video of a game master, and two long rows of TVs and hosts are placed on the street of Longteng Computer World, about 50 sets or so, which are fixed and protected by special iron shelves, and are open to 500 people who receive tickets to experience freely.

All the introductions are omitted, there are movie shocking demonstrations, there is no need to embellish it with any flashy words, everyone knows that this is a very cool game, super cool, people who have the financial means to start paying for it now, go home and experience it slowly.

For three days in a row, players were allowed to try out the experience on the Dragon Computer World Plaza, and this rule was the same as any of Dragon's own heavyweight game releases, and the joint release of Dragon Games and movies was another success.

The star-studded "The Expendables 2" movie, with a box office of 55 million on the first day of release in North America, 360 million a week, and a box office of over 700 million in three weeks of release, Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Julia Roberts The appeal of these big-name stars is too strong, coupled with the quality assurance of Dragon Boutique Games, making the "Expendables" series a movie brand no less than "Terminator"!
