Hidetaka Miyazaki is certainly a producer who has a place in the history of neon games.

And it can be regarded as a late bloomer who carries on the past and forges ahead into the future.

Born in '75, he switched to games at the age of 29, and then quickly became a leader in the game industry, and quickly became one of the first echelons of producers in the shortest possible time.

Thanks to his extraordinary talent and understanding of the game.

Joining a small company, being able to turn your imagination into reality, and being able to get a large number of fans because of the quality is good enough, you can imagine how strong this person is.

Hidetaka Miyazaki is most famous for the "Soul" series, and then exploded in "Wolf", followed by the old man's ring.

Even in 2023, Hidetaka Miyazaki is still one of the best game producers in the world.

The only thing that players love and hate is,This person never plays cards according to the routine.,The quality of the game is very high.,But it's also quite difficult.,Abuse players thousands of times in action games.,Especially the hated [Lao Yin Bi] monster design -

Leng Buding will give you a knife from behind.

Even a mob can make you torture to death.

Therefore, Hidetaka Miyazaki is often called [Miyazaki Old Thief] by players

But even after being abused countless times by Miyazaki's old thief, players still love his work, and there will be a large-scale discussion on the Internet even before the next game is released.

Being able to guess and accurately judge the next work of the Miyazaki thief is a rare pleasure for players.

This also shows that Hidetaka Miyazaki is indeed very capable.

This kind of person belongs to the kind of genius producer who can grow like crazy in the wilderness and doesn't need to spend much time cultivating himself.

So after thinking about it carefully, Qing Zhiyuan felt that it was necessary to pull the old thief Miyazaki over.

Damn!

A company that has gathered [Gen Xubuchi], [Jun Aeda], [Makoto Shinkai] and [Hidetaka Miyazaki], what the hell is this company?

Followed up with the den of thieves, right?

Qing Zhiyuan didn't dare to imagine it at all.

……

After some screening, the little HR Akane Ayase determined the person Qing Zhiyuan was looking for, but it was similar to the last time Shirakawa Atsushi, and it was bad news that he brought back.

"It's a shame that you can still know the name of such a person," Akane Ayase gasped back to the office and said uncomfortably, "He is about to graduate from high school, and his mother said that Hidetaka Miyazaki is now accompanying him and waiting for him to go to Okei University." ”

"Huh?!"

Qing Zhiyuan was also uncomfortable when he heard the news.

Damn it.

Hidetaka Miyazaki's results are so good.

After Akane Ayase's statement, Qing Zhiyuan finally remembered that Hidetaka Miyazaki was indeed a [scholar].

In his previous life, Hidetaka Miyazaki really studied at Okei University for a few years, and even after graduation, he entered a big-name foreign company like Oracle and worked as a program ape for a few years.

……

Among the neon, the first place should be Todai, and then the second place should be Keio University (which has fallen a lot since then, and has fallen to 9th place in 2023, but it is also quite powerful)

These two are almost equivalent to China's Tsinghua University and Peking University.

The college entrance examination here in Neon is not the same as in China.

If you have watched the movie "Bottom Spice Girl", you will probably be able to understand this.

The examination papers for admissions are produced by the school itself.

If you want to go to any school, you have to go to the examination room of the corresponding school to answer the paper.

Even between different faculties of the same school, there are differences in the time period and content of the exam.

So among the bottom babes, there is a village frame Jun who can only be admitted to Yingqing University twice, although she applied for the Faculty of Literature of Yingqing University at the beginning, she had diarrhea that day so she was not admitted.

But later I took the political comprehensive department and was admitted.

Although the current Miyazaki Hidetaka has a heart for making games, this kind of thing is related to a lifetime event in life.

After all, Okei University is also one of the best, and it would be a pity not to go to it with Hidetaka Miyazaki's grades.

Oh, yes.

The same is true of Jun Maeda.

Qing Zhiyuan suddenly thought that if he hadn't interfered with Ma Zhijun's life trajectory, this guy should have gone to the Department of Psychology at Tokyo University next year.

……

"Forget it, isn't Hidetaka Miyazaki going to be admitted to Okei University? I'll talk about it when he comes to Tokyo. ”

Qing Zhiyuan thought about it carefully, anyway, Makoto Shinkai is like this, the university photo is correct, but there is no delay in making games.

It's even better to be able to help out at school and connect directly and seamlessly to Pokeni after graduation.

And Qing Zhiyuan is convinced of Hidetaka Miyazaki's fiery heart for making games, think about it, how persistent is a 29-year-old programmer who quit his job and switched to making games for the sake of his dream?

Akane Ayase glanced at him, rolling her eyes in her heart.

President, you're really not a good person.

"People obviously have a bright future at Yingqing University, so why do they have to pull in to make games?"

"Huh?!"

Qing Zhiyuan turned his eyes sideways, and the little HR was frightened and took a few steps back.

"Give you ten seconds to reorganize the language again."

"Uh...... President, I was wrong," Akane Ayase said, shaking her head, "Although Okei University is good, it's obvious that you have a future by following us to play games." ”

……

January 24, 1993.

A suburb of Tokyo, Koganei City.

Studio Ghibli.

Qing Zhiyuan arrived with Akane Ayase as promised.

As soon as he got out of the car and walked not far, Qing Zhiyuan saw this place-

The two-storey building, which is not very large, has a simple and natural façade surrounded by foliage and vines, in line with the style of Ghibli's work.

Old man Hayao Miyazaki was already waiting at the door.

No, Hayao Miyazaki, who is now in his 50s, doesn't seem to be able to call him "old man".

But Qing Zhiyuan only glanced at it and found that although he was only 51 years old, his hair was all white.

Today, Miyazaki has a clean-shaven beard and wears a simple pair of black-rimmed glasses, which seems to be only a short distance away from the person in Aochiyuan's impression.

Yes, the only difference is the beard.

"Great, you're President Seoh Chi Yuan, right?"

Seeing Aochigen and Akane Ayase from a distance, Hayao Miyazaki stood at the door and said with a smile.

Qing Zhiyuan hurriedly walked a few steps.

"I'm Qing Zhiyuan, it's the first time we've met, please take care of me." After Qing Zhiyuan finished speaking, he turned back and introduced Akane Ayase, "This is my assistant Akane Ayase." ”

"I'm Hayao Miyazaki, it's the first time we've met, so please take care of me."

……

Everyone greeted each other, and Miyazaki introduced Aochigen into the room.

After Qing Zhiyuan entered, he couldn't help but light up.

It's more of a villa than a company.

Although there is a room and a hall, there are various dolls of My Neighbor Totoro and Porco Rosso everywhere, and the floor is also covered with wooden floors.

Today's shoot was in the restaurant.

Director, Videographer and Editor...... All kinds of staff have already set up equipment and are waiting for Qing Zhiyuan.

Studio Ghibli's staff cafeteria, decorated with a lot of Ghibli cartoon toys, has a round coffee table in the middle.

In some cases, it also functions as a meeting room for meetings.

Surrounded by greenery and rows of bookshelves, the atmosphere is full of art.

If no one had told Qing Zhiyuan that it was a company, he would definitely think it was a good place to go on vacation.

Damn, that's the ideal place to work.

Compared to the cold cubicle, Qing Zhiyuan fell in love with this place at once.

……

"Today is just small talk, just talk freely, don't take things too seriously."

Miyazaki invited Aochigen and Akane Ayase to sit down, then poured a cup of coffee for both of them from a transparent coffee pot next to him.

Sitting down again, everyone looked at each other and laughed.

The director's brow furrowed slightly.

Miyazaki said it lightly, but that's not the case.

In fact, after "Porco Rosso" ended, the scheduled interview was scheduled, but they didn't know that Miyazaki invited Aochiyuan.

The name Qing Zhiyuan is too rare, and it is not very famous.

It's just that Miyazaki is a stubborn old man, and he said that there is no way to invite you.

……

The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while, closing the distance between each other.

The director handed the two prepared booklets to Hayao Miyazaki and Chigen Ao.

"President Qing Zhiyuan, please help me read two sentences." Said the director.

"Okay."

Qing Zhiyuan took it and nodded.

Swallowed silently.

Seriously, it was the first time he had encountered this kind of situation with a semicircle of machines in front of him, and the eyes of the staff were looking at him, which put a lot of pressure on him.

Qing Zhiyuan lowered his head, this beautiful manual should be regarded as a Ghibli album to be precise.

Rigid paper, with a beautiful animated Ghibli scene drawn on each page.

For example, the page turned is from "Valley of the Wind".

On it, there was a line of small words written, and Qing Zhiyuan read softly -

"Fire burns forests to ashes in a day, but water and wind take a hundred years to reforest."

Turn another page,

"Human beings are always repeating the path of the past.

Everyone thinks they are right, and then sin leads to more sin, and sorrow leads to more sorrow, and there is never a way out. ”

"In my heart there is darkness, and if this is the forest within me, then this desert is also within me...... If that's the case, he's a part of me. ”

"Life is a light that flickers in the dark."

When he read the last sentence, Qing Zhiyuan's heart was suddenly touched.

How to say that?

Even if he has almost forgotten "Valley of the Wind", when he reads these lines, he still trembles in his heart, words have power.

This power is rooted in the human heart.

Images are also powerful, and these come from human beings.

……

When he looked up, Miyazaki was looking at him kindly.

He seemed to be satisfied with Qing Zhiyuan's expression and reaction.

Belch......

Damn it.

I was pretended by this old man.

However, Qing Zhiyuan understands him very well, after all, it is Miyazaki's own work.

If he could, Qing Zhiyuan would probably enjoy watching others play the games he made, right?

……

After listening to this, everyone smiled slightly, and they didn't have the slightest intention of wanting Qing Zhiyuan to comment.

"Please read a couple of sentences, too." The director said to Hayao Miyazaki.

"Huh? Do I want it too? ”

Miyazaki was stunned for a moment, as if he hadn't expected this.

"Well, please." Said the director.

So Miyazaki reluctantly picked up the manual, flipped a few pages at random, and read-

"Do not associate with the world. Even if it's a curse I promised myself. ”

"O flyer in the clouds, can you take off your sunglasses for me and show me your true face? As long as you set foot in this secret garden, you can easily capture me.

From then on, a clean small table, a glass of red wine, and the sunset over the distant mountains quietly from the past to the future.

Comrades-in-arms, lovers, flowers, honor, the brightest days of life have passed, you know the hypocrisy of reality, so you cherish the existence of innocence. ”

These are the lines in the newly released new work "Porco Rosso".

The Porco Rosso cartoon can be said to be quite heavy and realistic, especially unfriendly to children, but it has extraordinary depth and meaning.

It belongs to a movie that will not be more enlightening until ten or twenty years, after the years come up, and after experiencing the vicissitudes of the world, I will look back and watch it again.

"The ones who die are the good guys, and I don't know if it's going to be hell there."

"A pig that can't fly is a useless pig."

Hayao Miyazaki finished reading, and then he was amused.

"Ah...... It's really a shame to read your own work in front of others. ”

"No, no." Qing Zhiyuan shook his head, "Porco Rosso is really an amazing work. ”

At this point, Qing Zhiyuan suddenly understood this process a little.

I have to say that the level of this shooting crew is still good, in this way it is freehand and relaxed, so that you can completely relax and at the same time officially substitute the topic.

……

"Porco Rosso is a little too esoteric for me," Ching said, "but at least one thing, Porco Rosso can ignite a fire in people's hearts and tell us that we should rebel, which is in the same vein as Valley of the Wind." ”

Hayao Miyazaki was an animator with a communist spirit, and there are many subtle hints of the Paris Commune in Porco Rosso, and even posters of workers' rebellion, hammers and sickles can be seen in the background wall of Porco Rosso's appearance......

In Porco Rosso's work, although it shows the question of how [pigs] should make choices under the tide of the times, the answer in Miyazaki's heart is extremely firm-

[A pig that can't fly is really a pig]

It is necessary to have a spirit of resistance, and at the same time not to give in to power.

The critical spirit and courage of the wing left are still abundant in Miyazaki.

Qing Zhiyuan analyzed it, and the director was a little speechless.

This Nima, is this something that can be sown out?

But Miyazaki was very happy, looking at Qing Zhiyuan's eyes shining, and his face was full of writing-

You know me.

"Qingsang, you know what? Before I played the game Your Name, I wondered countless times if there was anything that could replace or express something in my heart in a completely new way.

After that, I realized that games might be a good medium. ”

Well?

Qing Zhiyuan sat up straight all of a sudden.

Does that get straight to the point?
