Yang Zhan searched for the registration information of the American company, found Huang Renxun, the president of Nvidia, and found that he was born in Taipei, and his family moved to Thailand at the age of 9, and then was sent to the United States to study, and he just turned 30 this year.

The second uncle Lin Prosperity was very comfortable in Southeast Asia, and soon found Huang Renxun's father's company, had a deep talk in person, and paid for the air tickets, and took the most important members of the Huang family to Taipei and met with Yang Yun once.

Longteng wanted to invest in Nvidia to make a graphics card jishu, this idea made Huang Renxun excited, he had long wanted to make a professional graphics chip designed for games, just like ATI's March32-L, customized for Longteng, so he accepted Longteng's capital injection without hesitation.

However, Nvidia's outbreak was in the late 90s, and when Yang Yun needed to make graphics killer games such as "Grand Theft Auto", "Resident Evil", and "Crysis", Nvidia would become his most powerful help!

At the beginning of April, when Yang Yun was immersed in the production of the script of Sword and Fairy, a major event occurred in the game industry, 3DO's Panasonic Company launched the world's second 32-bit game console, but unfortunately, it was 90 days slower than Sega SS.

However, after high-level negotiations, Panasonic set the price of the machine at $450 instead of the historical $699.

It's a pity that the market still doesn't buy it, Panasonic 3DO, 32-bit CPU, main frequency 26M Hz, memory is not as big as SS, the graphics card is not as powerful as SS, but the price is more expensive than 50 US dollars, which makes everyone feel inexplicable, thinking that Panasonic's head was kicked by a donkey.

It's like being in the ring for a boxing match. Longteng Company carefully prepared and bit the teether. put on the boxing gloves and silently bowed to Guan Erye in his heart. At the same time, he was full of anger when he shot three buttons, and his state had been adjusted to the best state, and he was watching the boxers of the 3DO company fight on the stage with high morale.

As a result, Panasonic did come, but it was too late to say anything, and as soon as he came up, he discounted one of his arms......

The onlookers are inexplicable, their peers are stunned, consumers can't understand what they are doing at all, and they have no desire to pay for it.

But when the market reacts strangely. Panasonic said that game makers are welcome to provide games, they don't charge any fees, and they don't even have a review, as long as someone is willing to make a game in their format, they are willing to take it.

Don't have a game quality management system? There is not even a referee, in case something goes wrong, it's all some scumbag game, who is responsible?

And who makes discs? How much does a CD disc cost? How much is the price? How much is the profit? To whom will the distribution channel be handed over?

No one knew about these problems, and Panasonic threw out all the software things. They made it clear to everyone that they only make money for hardware, they don't care about game software, and all game developers are responsible for their own profits and losses!

Looking at Panasonic like this. The dragon boxer was in a daze, he stood in the ring, not moving. Just watch the angry audience keep blowing out their boos, and then ......

No then. In addition to EA, KTT. There are also a small number of game production companies that support 3DO, and no more than 8 games have been released at the same time, and no other company has responded.

Dozens of game makers lined up at the gate of Sega with their own 32-bit games to wait for inspection, and Panasonic realized that something was wrong, without the support of game producers, they couldn't support the overall situation by relying on EA alone.

At this embarrassing moment when 3DO was released, real-time strategy games suddenly became popular around the world, and in the comments of professional media, Nintendo's "Dune 2" and Sega's "Saloman: Dune 1993" inevitably became the object of comparison, so someone was in tragedy!

Li Jian has been proud of the spring breeze recently, and people are in good spirits at happy events!

In 1987, he graduated from the Beijing Broadcasting Institute majoring in journalism and entered the Beijing Youth Daily as a reporter.

Through this relationship, Li Jian became the ace reporter of Longteng, the counterpart of Beijing Youth Daily, and Longteng has experienced many years of ups and downs, and has a tacit understanding in the media and social public opinion, and has risen all the way to the position of deputy editor-in-chief.

At the beginning of April this year, Li Jian was transferred to the local area and served as the editor-in-chief of "Popular Software" under the China Association for Science and Technology, responsible for the compilation of the inaugural issue!

Yang Yun couldn't laugh or cry after learning about this, he was also an intern reporter of the game magazine before he was reborn, and he was very clear about the establishment of the big soft, and the 1995 incident was advanced by him two years earlier, which can only show one thing, the country's attitude towards the computer information industry, it is indeed different from the real history, and now it has become a more supportive attitude, and it is more lenient in the game and animation industry.

Electronic heroin, flood beast, these words still exist, but because the state is also personally involved in the construction of this emerging industry, it is also a vested interest, and Yang Yun is consciously guiding, so from the top, they are full of tolerance and expectations for emerging industries that can account for 2.2% of the total domestic GDP.

The establishment of Da Soft is very in line with the trend, and it is very appropriate to choose Li Jian as the editor-in-chief, because only he who has dealt with Long Teng for many years can obtain the most core and confidential content.

The cover story of the inaugural issue of Popular Software is the collision of two real-time strategy games - Dune Battle!

This inaugural issue has become the eternal treasure of countless game fans in China, with rich content and strong news, making it difficult to find 1 million magazines for the first issue!

Mao Wei, a computer science student at Shanghai Jiaotong University and an avid game enthusiast, lined up in front of the newsstand at 4 a.m. to grab the first batch delivered by the postman at dawn, and then rode his bicycle back to do morning exercises.

The first lesson was the principle of single-chip microcomputer composition, which was boring and made Mao Wei yawn all day, he couldn't help it, and secretly took out a big soft flip from his backpack.

Looking at the catalog, the most attractive seems to have three sections, game reviews, industry news, and frontline areas, and the profiles of these three are all written "Exclusive Interview with Longteng".

The game review section provides an in-depth analysis of the two real-time strategy games by Nintendo and Sega, comparing them in various aspects, and scoring them as judged by Crystal Labs.

The article demonstrates the game's performance, interface, handling, difficulty and other aspects, with multiple illustrations and as easy to understand terms as possible, to show players the rated game in a fair and neutral manner.

Smoothness of the game needs to be considered in terms of console performance, and "Dune 1993" scored 98 points, and "Dune 2" scored 90 points, which is on par with the two.

The game interface includes model realism, background design, image effects, etc., and Longteng scored 95 points, and Ximutou scored 40 points.

Handling includes the difficulty of human-machine communication, the difficulty of control, etc., Longteng scored 90 points, and Ximutou scored 80 points.

The difficulty of the game includes AI difficulty, player difficulty, and playability, etc., Longteng 99 points, West Wood ...... 30 points.

In the overall rating, "Saloman: Dune 1993" scored 97.5 and "Dune 2" scored 55!

It's not that Nishimu's "Dune 2" is not doing well, but under the same genre, Nishimutou is compared to slag......

These are completely two opponents who are not in the same heavyweight class, but the crystal laboratory really can't find a game that can match the dragon, so it can only pull Nishiki into the battlefield, and then stomp on Nishiki after the evaluation, and complain about Nintendo by the way.

"Compared with the world's first real real-time strategy game "Saloman: Dune 1993", Nintendo's "Dune 2" is like a game played by kindergarten children, getting younger and younger! The shoddy model, the uncontrollable operation interface, and the mentally retarded enemy army that made people vomit blood made our assessment team feel that their IQ was lowered a lot! ”

"Hah!"

When Mao Wei saw this passage, he immediately burst out laughing, who called Longteng is Chinese, and Nintendo is Japanese? This big soft slap dragon fart, but the slap is crackling!

But this laughter made him suddenly the focus of the class, and the teacher shouted angrily: "Is my class so funny?" What are you looking at? Take it out! ”

Mao Wei was tragic, he hadn't finished enjoying it yet, so he watched an evaluation, and was taken away by the teacher and temporarily detained.

He looked at the teacher's back, he could only stretch out his arms, opened his mouth but couldn't speak, and wanted to cry without tears......

"Silly, aren't you...... Brother Hui is much smarter than you, he watched in the dormitory, and he didn't come to class at all! The roommate reminded in a low voice with a smile on the side, which made Mao Wei cry and laugh, sure enough, someone is more ruthless than him!

finally got out of class, Mao Wei begged by the podium for a long time, only to exchange one for the time being, and returned the promise to him after the second class.

But Mao Wei couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and discussed with his roommate, skipped class and ran away.

When he returned to the dormitory, sure enough, Brother Hui was holding the magazine and shouting there, ecstatic: "Third child, are you back?" Come and see, Longteng is going to release a domestic RPG game! ”

Mao Wei's eyes lit up and he rushed over: "Really? Is it more classic than Final Fantasy? ”

Brother Hui quickly flipped the magazine to the frontline column, pointed to the title and said excitedly: "The masterpiece of Chinese classical Xianxia RPG game - "The Legend of Sword and Fairy"! See? The content of Shushan Wonders! The legend of the Three Emperors and Five Emperors! This is the same masterpiece as the Shijie view of "The King of Fighters"! ”

Mao Wei read every word greedily, this is an exclusive interview with Yang Yun by Da Soft, telling the original design intention of the game "The Legend of Sword and Fairy", introducing the design team, and making tidbits.
