Yang Yun deliberately revealed the news of the renegotiation, because he knew that Sega would never be willing to miss the ownership of Tetris last time.

The GameBoy sold 8 million copies in North America in three months, Tetris sold 2 million copies, and various other game cards sold tens of millions of copies.

After half a year of gestation and fermentation, the Christmas holiday in 1989 is sure to be Nintendo's most important sales season, when FC and GameBoy fly together, plus Tetris and Super Mario, the two widely sought-after twin star games, will definitely set off a sales frenzy again.

Look at Sega's side, although their Genesis 16-bit machine is much stronger than Nintendo's 8-bit FC, but the total sales volume has not yet reached 10 million sets, and the handheld GameGear is still under development, so you can only watch Nintendo's GameBoy ride the dust and eat a butt of dust, this year's North American Christmas holiday Needless to say, Sega will definitely fall behind Nintendo's old rival again.

Hearing that Yang Yun and Nintendo would renegotiate the patent rights of Tetris, Nagano's heart jumped wildly, trying to restrain his emotions, and asked tentatively: "Mr. Yang, you and Nintendo...... What will be discussed? ”

Yang Yun frowned and said lightly: "I'm not sure, the specific situation should be interviewed in person, Nintendo just made an invitation to us to negotiate, and my Soviet partner is in charge of this matter." But I'm not afraid to tell you, Nagano-kun, Nintendo should be very optimistic about this game, they have already paid us for 2 million copies, and I think the Christmas holidays are coming, and they will need more. ”

Nagano struggled to control the calmness of his facial muscles, leaned on the table, and gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Yang, I understand, Sega will not miss this opportunity again." xiexie you! ”

Yang Yun almost didn't laugh at the internal injury, it seems that Sega, a bitter child, will be busy running behind him again, he has to think about how to get the most benefits.

I just don't know if this renegotiation with Nintendo, will he be able to get what he dreams of? Yang Yun is even looking forward to going to the United States.

To change the topic, similar to the usual tasting of Japanese tea ceremony with Nagano and chatting about industry information, the three Japanese, plus Yang Yunhe and the translator, sat cross-legged in the tea room, relaxed and chatted.

Nagano personally performed the tea ceremony, Yang Yun watched his elegant movements, casually mentioned the report on the latest game trends in the industry, and asked, "Nagano-kun, what type of game is the most popular in Japan right now?" What do you Japanese game developers typically get their inspiration from? ”

Nagano is proud: "In Japan, we believe in happy work. Inspiration may be a moment, a chat, a piece of TV, a baseball game, a debate, a movie, can be a source of inspiration. For example, in Japan recently, the hottest news is that NHK TV is preparing to shoot the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, and Asahi TV has made a special issue of the 500th episode of Shogun Tyranto, and KOEI's Nobunagano Nobo Sengoku Legend has just been launched, and it is selling well all over Japan, setting off a wave of domestic reminiscence of the Warring States period and revisiting the legend of the shogunate. ”

Inoue Yanxiong and Matsumoto Yoshino laughed, and even echoed and sang the theme song of the Tyrant Fang General TV series, which is very appropriate, but they have watched hundreds of episodes of TV in Japan, and they have only broken the habit of chasing changes in China in the past few months.

Because Nagano said these things in a joking tone, some Japanese words are not easy to translate into English, so there are a lot of Japanese words interspersed in the middle, only the three of them Japanese understand it, and Yang Yun knows nothing about it.

Yang Yun only understood part of it, but a few keywords made his ears instantly stand up: "Nagano Jun, Three Kingdoms, Tyrant General, I don't understand these a little, and the KOEI you said, but the Japanese game company that translates into Chinese as Koei Co., Ltd.?" ”

The translator on the side also had a headache, usually Yang Yun and Yongye talked, they were all in English and Chinese, and the communication was really not smooth, so I remembered to ask her about the translator, but every time they asked a question, she also felt that she could not answer.

The passage that Nagano said just now contains too much information, first, NHK TV is preparing to shoot a live-action version of the Three Kingdoms, which is an explosive news, because Japan, a small land, although it admires the culture of the Three Kingdoms very much, but it is really impossible to complete such a big scene, at most in 1983, I made a set of Three Kingdoms puppet drama and enjoyed it, and it was almost impossible for them to shoot the Battle of Chibi, a big scene of 10,000 people hedging.

Second, TV Asahi made a special issue of the 500th episode of the Shogun, which tells the story of the eighth general of the Edo Shogunate, Tokugawa Yoshimune, who paid a private visit to the eighth general of the Edo Shogunate, fought crime, eradicated the evil Shili, and persuaded the good to punish the evil.

zuihou, KOEI's popular Nobunaga nobido game, although it is an important company in the game console industry with Nagano and Yang Yun, but KOEI is far less famous than Konami Konami and Capcom Capcom, these games produced in the early days of Konomi have almost not spread to Chinese mainland, so Yang Yun asked if it was Koei Co., Ltd., the translation was not accurate, she did not see the Chinese translation name of KOEI.

The translator girl could only use her barren knowledge of Japanese culture to explain the above content to Yang Yun intermittently, which immediately made Yang Yun ponder.

If Yongye didn't say this, Yang Yun might have neglected this matter, and now the more he thought about it, the more fortunate he felt, he broke out in a cold sweat, and secretly wiped the sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, sighing in his heart that it was dangerous, if he missed the game of Three Kingdoms, he would definitely regret it for the rest of his life in the future.

KOEI Koei Co., Ltd. was mainly based on simulation games in the early days, its historical trilogy, Nobunaga's ambition, Three Kingdoms, Genghis Khan, these three are based on the real historical background, exquisite workmanship, until the epic masterpiece that lasted more than 20 years in later generations, so that countless historical simulation game lovers indulged in it, not only influenced the entire Japanese thinking about loyalty, martial arts, loyalty and filial piety, and even overseas Chinese, the familiarity with the Three Kingdoms is more obtained from Japanese games, rather than the mainland version of TV series and novels.

However, in China's domestic game console market, until the PC era, these glorious computer games were contacted by Chinese game lovers, and later, Taige Ambition, the Age of Discovery, Three Kingdoms Wars, Dynasty Warriors, too many classic games, are from this KOEI glorious company, at that time everyone knew that the original glorious company was so powerful.

It is precisely because of its strength on the PC side that in the current weak FC era, Yang Yun almost forgot the founders of these classic games, and he even forgot that the Three Kingdoms is the crown work of the glorious company.

In fact, in 1983, Nobunaga's Ambition shocked the game industry just after it was produced, in 1985 the Three Kingdoms and Genghis Khan swept the Far East, and in 1988, Nobunaga's Ambition Sengoku Legend was transplanted to Nintendo's red and white machines, and then set off a sales boom, and KOEI Koei became the leader of historical simulation games in the game industry.

At this time, at the end of 1989, these three games have been made, and they are relatively popular in Japan and overseas Chinese circles, Yang Yun wants to take the lead, it must be too late, but he still has a chance, that is, the spread of the game, and the subsequent version.

For example, Nobunaga's Ambition is a game that has been produced by Koei for a total of 13 generations, but the first three generations, the game production and art are extremely simple, and the RPG game running on the Nintendo FC home 8-bit game console, how beautiful can this be? From Yang Yun's point of view, it was miserable! So the first 3 generations, although Koei Company made it 6 years ahead of schedule, it can almost be said to be a failed work, and it can only play the role of accumulating jishu.

It wasn't until 1990 that Nobunaga's ambition developed the 4th generation, transplanted to the PC, added hundreds of new generals, various parameter settings were more reasonable, and the art had a qualitative change in leaps and bounds, in addition to the game's core upgradeable system, which could be upgraded to a certain extent to unlock and manufacture various high-level buildings and troops, so that the game's playability was greatly improved, which was a great success.

Yang Yun now wakes up in time, and it may be too late to preemptively make Nobunaga's ambitions, but Sanguozhi, he must take advantage of the glorious company before it has time to soar into the sky, and take down the Chinese's own Sanguozhi game!

Quietly, Yang Yun picked up the teacup and said a few gossips, let go of the topic just now, and then began to talk about baseball and women, in a happy chat atmosphere, time passed in a flash.

When it was almost time to eat, Nagano took the opportunity to invite Yang Yun to eat authentic Japanese food, Yang Yun turned around and found that Inoue Yoshio and Matsumoto Yoshino were eager to try, smiled, did not ruin everyone's interest, and agreed.

The group was about to go to the Hokkaido Restaurant, the most famous Japanese restaurant in the capital, when Jiang Shaoyun hurried over, full of anxiety, and stopped Yang Yun outside the Sega building.

"Mr. Yang, Director Duan had a heart attack and was sent to the hospital!"

Yang Yun was taken aback: "Slow down, what's going on?" ”
