373. I'll compose the head
……
After the two parties sign the contract, all that remains is to go through the process.
Returning to Neon from the United States, Qing Zhiyuan sat on the plane, looking at the large sea of clouds outside the window, and even a little trance.
Who would have thought?
The northern blizzard and blizzard in the previous life actually reunited together in such a strange way through pokeni.
It's really a wonderful fate.
To use a wonderful analogy, it is equivalent to pokeni being a big whale, and after swallowing two small fish in the sea, they not only did not die, but also multiplied in the belly of the whale.
Only this time it's the other way around.
In the previous life, it was Blizzard that took Condor as a part of it, but this time Qingzhiyuan purchased it through the name of the Mi Guo subsidiary, and then Blizzard will be reorganized into a studio under the Pokeni Mi Guo flag.
In the previous life, it was Blizzard to make up the head, but this time it became Condor to make the head.
I can't help but smile.
Qing Zhiyuan is not only interested in these veterans of Blizzard, but also on the two big IPs of Warcraft and Interstellar.
Others may not know, but for a time-traveler like him, these two IPs have high brand value.
In this way, through the acquisition of Blizzard, a lot of trouble has been saved for Qingzhiyuan.
There is no need to reinvent the wheel, otherwise, he will have to find a way to create a Western fantasy IP that can be comparable to Warcraft.
Secondly, the future World of Warcraft has already been settled, as long as the time is ripe, Qingzhiyuan will include it in the development plan, you must know that World of Warcraft is a gold-swallowing beast in the online game industry, and the annual revenue of the world at its peak is as high as tens of billions of dollars.
After Blizzard took it, Pokeni's empire was put together in a big piece:
As it stands, the Warcraft and StarCraft franchises fill the gap of no real-time strategy games in Pokeni, and as a company known as the P Society, you don't really have a strategy game that you can't really talk about.
It's not a turn-based strategy game, but it's a strategy game, isn't it?
StarCraft's command art isn't bad at all.
Moreover, now that pokeni has FPS games like the border, it can be extended from Blizzard to DOTA in the future, FPS competition from the border, and at the same time, it can also derive chicken ......
The mainstream esports events of the future are basically covered by pokeni.
In short, a good tomorrow is as bright as the sun outside the window.
……
After returning to Neon, Seichi Won invited Hattori Hiroyuki out for dinner.
Sumo hot pot eaten by two people.
The weather in January is actually just right to eat hot pot.
The atmosphere inside the restaurant is lively and full of traditional Japanese atmosphere. The hot pot is steaming and makes people feel extremely comfortable.
The hot pot began to boil, and the two began to put various ingredients into the pot.
"You've been entertaining a bit a lot lately." Hiroyuki Hattori said with a smile.
"No, no," Qing Zhiyuan responded, "the last time was last year, and I may have to start taking a vacation after today." ”
"Vacation?" Hiroyuki Hattori looked up in some surprise.
Aren't you a workaholic? There are times when you have to take a vacation?
"Well," Qing Zhiyuan nodded, "I have to accompany my family." ”
Hattori Yuyuki was stunned for a moment, and immediately reacted, "Oh, my wife is going to give birth, right?" ”
Qing Zhiyuan nodded and took a sip of wine, "The due date in March, so she will be hospitalized from next month, and I am going to take a month-long vacation to accompany her in the hospital." ”
"Ah...... Well, it's actually quite hard. Hiroyuki Hattori nodded approvingly.
"It doesn't matter, the main thing is that she and my parents are gone, and every relative around me takes care of her, although I hired a more reliable girl, but I think there are some things that may not be replaced by others."
Qing Zhiyuan said happily while eating beef, "And it is really meaningful to be able to see my children born in the last period of time."
So it's not hard at all. ”
Good guys, show off here, huh?
Hattori Yuyuki cursed Qing Zhiyuan in his heart.
This guy is so jealous.
is handsome, and he can marry a woman as good as Nao Tsuda, and finally give birth to a dragon and phoenix fetus.
All the luck in the world is taken by one person, right?
What else are you not satisfied with?!
Hattori Hiroyuki took a deep breath and said silently:
"I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about Madame."
"Ahem......" Qing Zhiyuan almost didn't choke on sake.
"She's really hard, the pressure of the twins isn't ordinary," Qing Zhiyuan picked up a tissue to wipe the corners of his mouth, and then told Hattori Yuyuki, "Nao has been quite calm on the surface lately, but actually very nervous.
I guess there was a little bit of prenatal anxiety. ”
This is also human nature, after all, giving birth to a child is a major life event, not to mention that the doctor has explained the risks to Nao Tsuda before.
In addition to a slash on the stomach, a caesarean section may also face a variety of risks.
And when the time comes, she will do general anesthesia, everything is beyond the control of Nao Tsuda, she is actually a very insecure woman in her bones, so something like this out of control is actually very scary for her.
Qing Zhiyuan only hopes that after he takes a leave of absence, he can accompany her well, not to mention eliminating Nao Tsuda's anxiety, at least let her know that no matter what happens, Qing Zhiyuan must be there.
Hiroyuki Hattori picked up a slice of beef, put it in the pot, and then watched it tumble in the pot, and said with a smile: "You see, this is life, sometimes we need to be like this piece of beef, rolling in a difficult environment to become more delicious." ”
"Huh?" Qing Zhiyuan frowned, thinking to himself what this is talking about?
Not really.
"It's far from a dilemma." Qing Zhiyuan said.
"No, no, I'm talking about the recent financial crisis, which seems to have spread to neon, and no one knows what the future will become." Hiroyuki Hattori sighed deeply and said in a pretended deep voice.
Qing Zhiyuan looked at the guy in front of him with some sympathy.
It seems that President Hattori is estimated to have suffered a lot of losses during this time.
However, with Qing Zhiyuan's understanding of him, Hattori Hiroyuki himself has such a big sales platform as Dongrun, and he also has the support of the Yamada Foundation behind him, so it is not his turn to worry.
The two chatted for a while, and Hiroyuki Hattori recalled the past time, and it was really not easy to think about it.
In such a limited life, he has experienced the bursting of the economic bubble in 90 years and the Asian financial crisis that has gradually fermented this year.
What kind of luck is this?
However, in contrast, Hiroyuki Hattori has a deeper sense of the economic bubble.
You must know that the bubble burst back then was not as gentle as it is now.
Although the yen has been depreciating continuously during this period of time, and assets have been shrinking, it has given people an acceptable process.
And when the bubble bursts, it is really like its name, it is gone with a click, and all the fantasies and dreams disappear in an instant.
Especially the guys who invested in real estate and stock speculation back then, many of them lost money.
Hattori Hiroyuki was almost the same way back then, with the stock price of Dongrun Group plummeting, and its real estate cut in half, forcing him to sell many high-quality assets, but fortunately, there was also a game sales chain, which was able to slowly climb back from the bottom.
In retrospect, it wasn't just Seijiwon who needed them back then, but Hiroyuki Hattori also needed Cheohi Chiwon.
In other words, he needs guys like Qing Zhiyuan who can continuously produce high-quality games and can help Dongrun make money.
Until now, after experiencing the previous storms, Hiroyuki Hattori seems to feel that there is nothing left.
As long as you can survive and persevere, life may go through waves, but it will always get better in the end.
Life is like this, there are ups and downs, where there is always smooth sailing, there will naturally be no eternal turbulence.
……
"Hmm...... If it looks like this, it really is. ”
Qing Zhiyuan nodded with a sigh.
The economic bubble is actually much more damaging than the current financial crisis.
Think about the national carnival back then, everyone lived a [high-quality] life of buying and buying, and in the low-desire society after the bubble burst, young people no longer dared to make large purchases, and they were also cautious about having children......
This lethality directly led to the stagnation of neon for thirty years.
After the financial crisis, the economy may recover, but it will be much more difficult to get out of the predicament that followed the bursting of the economic bubble.
Since the beginning of '89, to the present, neon office workers have hardly had a wage increase.
Another wave of currency depreciation is actually equivalent to a decrease in purchasing power.
However, this purchasing power is also relative, and if domestic prices do not rise, residents will not actually feel much about it.
The most perceptual are entrepreneurs like Sochiyuan and Hiroyuki Hattori, whose purchasing power in the international arena has declined due to the depreciation of the currency.
"By the way, President Hattori, our new game this time is about futuristic technology."
Qing Zhiyuan took out the prepared gift.
This time it was in preparation for the release of "My Robot Girlfriend".
However, Qing Zhiyuan said, my prompt is clear enough, right?
Don't say I didn't help you.
"Future technology?" Hiroyuki Hattori asked suspiciously.
"Well, it's a story about a futuristic robot girl." Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "After the game is completed, the movie should be launched in the second half of this year." ”
"Huh? Is the action so fast? Hattori Hiroto was a little surprised.
I didn't expect Qing Zhiyuan to have arranged the future, and the game and movie linkage were played by this guy.
"In that case, you have to put it on the shelves sooner." Hiroyuki Hattori said.
"Well, then I'll leave the rest of the time to President Hattori."
"Hahaha, no problem."
……
Hiroyuki Hattori said, where is it to give it to me.
Obviously, I want to ask for the trash can immortals.
After eating, Hiroyuki Hattori got into the car to go home, then walked down at the old place and put "My Robot Girlfriend" in the trash can.
"Bless the trash can immortals! Hope the game is a big hit!! ”
After a pause, Hattori Hiroyuki hesitated and said, "I hope the financial crisis will pass sooner!" Everything has to be done quickly! ”
