5. Why don't you go to heaven?

"President Tsuda, I thank you very much for your proposal, but there is one thing I need to let you know in advance."

Qing Zhiyuan took a deep breath and said, "There is still a certain difference between galgame and the RPG game we want to make. ”

"Well, please." Nao Tsuda raised her hand and humbly asked.

"The focus of galgame is to raid girls and achieve love, and if you want to bring players an in-depth experience, the quality requirements for the picture must be very high. If you want to make a dynamic CG, then there will be further image quality requirements, and being able to draw a good character avatar and vertical painting is the foundation, and a well-made dynamic CG is king. ”

"Uh-huh." Nao Tsuda nodded, agreeing very much with Sei Chi Won's statement, "President Ayo, your words have dispelled my previous concerns, and you can draw such a beautiful character, and at the same time, you can analyze the essence of galgame so thoroughly, which proves that I am not wrong."

Your company will definitely be able to make this game a classic, and even the crowning work of the future love game. ”

President Tsuda's eyes lit up, and he seemed to be intoxicated with endless reverie for the future.

Hey.

This stupid woman, she didn't expect to fall for me, did you?

Qing Zhiyuan smiled in his heart, and changed his words, "But there is a big problem here." ”

Nao Tsuda looked up and looked at him suspiciously.

"Now on FC, it's almost impossible to achieve the effect we want." Qing Zhiyuan pursed his lips and pretended to be regretful.

"Hmm." Chikawa Hongichi frowned beside him and agreed, "The performance of the red and white machine is limited, and the picture will definitely not be able to reach it." According to the picture level required by the president,A picture needs to be at least 0.5M in size,15 characters,Each person has to produce at least 3 to 4 pictures,Then it's going to be 100M.,Even if we can do compression,Maybe it can only be reduced to 50M in the end.,This is an impossible task on FC.。 ”

To put it bluntly, the most advanced game console on the market is still Nintendo's red and white machine, and the 8-bit machine itself has limited operating efficiency, and the support for color is also very low, which can only reach a total of 52 colors, and the same screen can display up to 13 of them.

This can't support such a great work as "Onmyoji".

The essence of galgame lies in the copywriting and graphics, especially those blood-pumping vertical paintings and interactive CG, if they are not done well, they will lose their meaning.

Although it is said to be CG, it is processed through multiple pictures in the game, not real video playback, otherwise this capacity will go to 1G, and it is impossible for hardware to support it in this era.

To put it more simply, the early love CG is actually a GIF, but the picture that the player switches when he clicks changes it, so as to achieve the [interactive] effect.

Even in order to save space and improve execution efficiency, a picture will be divided into many parts, for example, if you interact with your face, then you only change your face, and if you interact with your body, you will change your body......

……

When Nao Tsuda heard the news, he couldn't help but flash a touch of regret, "It's really a pity, if such a great work can't be realized." ”

Right, right.

Qing Zhiyuan nodded violently, "But if it is made into a pure RPG game, then as long as the plot and game are attractive enough, it can still have good sales." ”

"Unless ......"

At this moment, Qianchuan next to him suddenly spoke, startling Qing Zhiyuan.

"Now that the performance of mainstream home computers is much stronger than that of FC, is it possible to consider selling them on computers?" Chikawa pondered.

Oops, I'll it.

Qing Zhiyuan screamed bitterly in his heart, I was about to succeed in persuasion just now, Qianchuan, you give me a knife in the back, are you still a pokeni person?

"Nope."

Qing Zhiyuan argued, "Computer users are much worse than game consoles by an order of magnitude." ”

At this time, the number of home phone owners, especially Nintendo's FC owners, has reached more than 15 million units, including 35 million NES units sold in Europe and the United States.

And what about PCs?

There are only 1.5 million units in the island country, which is not an order of magnitude at all.

"If it's done on a PC, I can't guarantee sales." Qing Zhiyuan said seriously.

In fact, in the previous life, "Peer Student" was sold on the computer, creating a great miracle of more than 100,000 copies.

1.5 million computer users contributed more than 100,000 copies, what is this concept?

It can only be said that there are a lot of LSPs.

"That's right......" The light in Nao Tsuda's eyes dimmed again.

"What if you add a chip?" Hiroichi Chikawa asked, "It's specifically for dealing with pictures and memory issues." This may be able to squeeze out all the performance of the red and white machine at the same time, support to about 50M cartridge capacity, even if it can't be particularly beautiful, then it is enough to make all the blue games on the market difficult to match! ”

I......

Qing Zhiyuan next to him was dumbfounded when he heard this, and a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out.

I'm special!

Add a chip, why don't you go to heaven?

……

Qing Zhiyuan didn't react for a long time, and carefully searched his resume about Chikawa Hongichi in his brain, and found that this guy seemed to have studied semiconductors in college before, and the company hired him as a hardware engineer to be able to make a next-generation home game console.

How can it be repaired!

In the 90s, neon semiconductors were said to be the second in the world, and no one really dared to admit that they were first.

I brought Chikawa here today to solve difficult problems and persuade the president of the other party to invest, but I didn't expect it to turn out like this in the end......

Qing Zhiyuan felt very uncomfortable.

"President Qing, do you have any questions?" Nao Tsuda laughed for a long time.

Qing Zhiyuan opened his mouth, not knowing what to say.

"Actually, for me, there is only one answer," says Nao Tsuda seriously, "and if you can't do what I want, then the investment will have to be cancelled." ”

"But if you don't want to make this game, please be sure to sell this project to me, and DUN will buy out this product for 50 million."

Think beautiful about you.

Qing Zhiyuan took a deep breath, straightened his suit and stood up, and bowed deeply to Nao Tsuda, "Then please take care of President Tsuda." ”

……

After the two sides reached an agreement, it took about half a day to finalize the details, and the meeting was over, after which the contract would be drawn up by the DUN company, and the specific investment fee would be paid to pokeni's company account in 4 installments and 1/4 of each quarter.

"Great! President, we finally got the investment! ”

Three people came out of DUN, and only Chikawa was happy.

He glanced back at the two behind him, not quite understanding why there were such solemn expressions on the faces of Seijiwon and Mika Ishino.

Didn't we get the investment?

How did it look like a lost battle.

Chikawa Hongichi smiled, "President, if I hadn't tried my best to persuade President Tsuda just now, I wouldn't have ......"

was glared at by the president, and Chikawa only felt a chill in his heart.
