Is it not a galgame?

Chapter 134 38. Do you know what they call me?

Johnny's Office.

"Kimura, you're going to be hot." Colleague Nakai Masahiro held a magazine in front of Kimura Takuya.

Kdai, an old idol magazine published in 1966, has gone through more than 20 years. In the early stage, it mainly introduced contemporary Japanese movie stars and popular singers. In the past two years, it has transformed into a popular idol, actor and singer. All-round information.

Because of the large number of readers and the timely transformation, it occupies a very important place in the same field of idol magazines.

In particular, several newly launched artist rankings in the magazine have been welcomed by countless readers.

Kimura looked along Nakai Masahiro's fingers, and there was a form embedded in the black and white magazine pages between them.

Kimura is in the third row of the table.

"What is this?" Kimura Takuya raised his head and asked suspiciously.

"The most popular new male artist selected by Kdai after surveying more than 400 passers-by."

"Eh? Really or not?" Although Kimura had confidence and premonition about this, when he actually heard the news, he still felt unreal.

It's like dreaming.

But Kimura himself knew that this feeling was not a good thing.

When young people become famous too early, it is easy to cause people to be in a trance, and the future will be a big fall.

Takuya Kimura's friend, and also a member of their smap team, Masahiro Nakai is so envious.

"Really, your popularity is soaring now." Nakai Masahiro said bitterly.

To a certain extent, he was very envious of Takuya Kimura for being able to meet a president like Qing Zhiyuan, who was used to discover him before he became famous, and used newcomers like Kimura to be the spokesperson for his products.

"No." Kimura said with a frown, "I haven't felt it myself, I don't have any real experience."

Although there is no sense of reality, Takuya Kimura himself can probably guess what caused the fire——

Since he became the Pokémon spokesperson of Pokeni, with the popularity of games and cartoons, many people can recognize Kimura when he walks on the street.

This is an experience that has never been experienced before.

Even though he participated in the Red and White Song Concert during the Spring Festival last year, there were many members in the group at that time, and he may not be the most outstanding one, but now, many people will directly call him [Pokémon] instead of [Kimura Takuya]

Thinking of this, Kimura couldn't help but smile wryly.

I don't know whether it is good or bad.

About losing his real name and becoming a Pokémon, Takuya Kimura was really not mentally prepared at all.

Even when he accepted the advertisement, it was just to fulfill his responsibility to complete the task assigned by the firm.

But I never thought that Pokémon could become so popular.

And with the continuous broadcast of cartoons, there is a growing trend.

"Kimura." At this moment, Nakai Masahiro patted him on the shoulder, awakening Kimura Takuya from his contemplation.

"what are you thinking about?"

"I..." Kimura smiled wryly, turned his head and said to his friend, "Do you know what the kids on the street call me now?"

"what?"

"Pokémon." Kimura said sadly, "Takuya Kimura's name is not as loud as Pokémon."

After being labeled with this label, the ego is gone.

"You boy," Nakai Masahiro hugged his neck from behind, and turned his head to one side with very light force. It was all a fight between friends, and it was a small lesson for Kimura. Be good, you can be content with it. If it were me, I would also be called Pokémon."

"Haha." Kimura shook his head, grabbed the other's arm with his hand, "If possible, I would also like to exchange with you."

"Don't talk stupidly, Kimura." Nakai Masahiro let go of his hand, stood up, and stretched his arms, "This is an opportunity you should seize, and others may not be able to have this effect."

Masahiro Nakai could tell the truth.

Except for Kimura who can interpret that kind of cuteness and softness, masculinity and charm so naturally, no one else can do it.

One point more, one point less, will arouse the audience's resentment.

Not to mention interacting with the cute pets in the game.

At least you can see the clarity and kindness in Kimura's eyes.

Just like Xiaozhi, the protagonist of the story.

"You will become famous in the future, so take care of me more." Nakai Masahiro said.

……

Pokémon's games, animations, advertisements, and peripherals are all in one, forming a perfect industrial chain, basically covering people's vision with animation as the main body, especially forming a sensational effect among young people.

While the game is selling well, Pokémon's dazzling array of peripheral products has also begun to gradually develop, becoming a new sales growth point.

Among them, the best sellers are naturally Pokémon plush toys, especially Pikachu's.

Then there's Eevee, Bulbasaur...

The reason why Ibrahimovic sells well is because it looks beautiful, the so-called beauty is justice.

Other products are basically ranked according to popularity.

In addition to plush toys, cat bags have also become a major sales force.

In the country of neon, there is a unique cat-loving plot. This plot may be influenced by Hayao Miyazaki and other masters of painting, leading them to have a heartfelt love for cats.

Owners who own a cat often have the need to carry pets with them when they go out. Rather than saying that Pokémon products are attractive, it is better to say that the cat bag itself has a strong application value.

At the same time, because of the various cute cartoon images in Pokémon, this kind of cat bag with [astronaut helmet] quickly occupied the market and became the favorite of cat lovers.

Many manufacturers of similar products are still at the stage of using portable cat cages. They never thought that a company like DUN, which produces blue products, would have such advanced creative capabilities.

As soon as Pokémon's cat bags came out, many players and cat product manufacturers competed to imitate them, and various cat bags appeared on the market correspondingly.

Portable cat cages have also begun to use transparent materials at both ends and sides to facilitate the expansion of the cat's vision.

In addition to DUN's backpack style, there are shoulder bags produced by other companies, or front-mounted cat bags.

In short, as time goes on, you can see all kinds of cat bags on the streets of Tokyo.

But none of these cat packs were able to successfully threaten, or even seize 1% of the market share of Pokémon cat packs. There is no other reason, mainly because Pokémon is so cute.

And Pokémon cartoons are very popular.

According to some people, unless Disney makes cat bags, there is basically no rival.

……

When night fell, Qing Zhiyuan and Tsuda Nao walked on the streets of Ginza.

Neon lights flicker all around.

In the 90s, it was not the simple and elegant decoration style of the future, and it was rare to see super-sized LCD TV screens. The main way for stores to attract people was through colorful lights.

So at night, it becomes colorful here, and you will feel dazzled if you just raise your head and look at it.

In the future, there will be a special name to describe it, called light pollution.

But in this era, the flickering colorful lights seem to be alive, showing vitality through their own constant changes, and the more lively places are, the more common such scenes are.

In the large shopping mall, apart from the colorful lights, there are also noisy and noisy sounds, which are full of vitality.

This is the neon Tokyo, one of the largest cities in the world.

"Green mulberry."

Nao Tsuda stopped, tilted his head, and looked at Qing Zhiyuan carefully.

The latter touched his nose and wondered, "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"I think Qingsang...you grow up too fast." Tsuda Nao said with a smile.

After laughing, she walked forward like a normal person.

Qing Zhiyuan took steps to keep up with her.

So the two were side by side again, looking like a pair of mature lovers.

"Thinking about it, it's really surprising." Tsuda sighed, "When I first met Qingsang, you were still devoted to the game and had a great talent for the product itself, but Like a scientist in an ivory tower, someone who is blind to his surroundings.

I don't understand the market, nor do I understand people's hearts. "

"Hehe, thank you for your compliment." Qing Zhiyuan sneered twice, sarcastically.

"But now..." Tsuda lowered his head and thought for two seconds, "You can already consider many development routes at the same time, such as animation, games, advertisements, peripheral toys, etc., and you can connect them in the first layout. Together, and each undertakes its own mission, but can form a joint force in the end.

The strategy, creativity, and coordination ability embodied in it are amazing enough. "

Nao Tsuda felt a deep tremor in her heart, even though she was already quite familiar with Qing Zhiyuan, and these things happened under her nose.

No, it was the fact that these things were happening right under her nose that was truly astonishing.

Even she was thinking from time to time——

What kind of genius is Qing Zhiyuan, who can make such great progress in a short period of time, there is probably no other person in the world, right?

Even the spokesperson he chose was so appropriate.

Tsuda Nao asked herself, if it were her, she would definitely not be able to do so comprehensively.

Not even a tenth of it.

Qing Zhiyuan smiled lightly, but did not answer Nao Tsuda directly.

Do I want to say that these things are actually leftovers from other people's play, and in fact I just borrowed some ideas from the future?
However, being able to feel the admiration in Nao Tsuda's eyes really made him extremely happy.

Even dizzy.

Like this colorful neon sign.

"That's right, Qingsang."

At this moment, Tsuda Nao pulled Laqing Zhiyuan's sleeve and directed him to look over.

I saw a row of claw machines not far away, among which the hottest one contained Pokémon toys.

The front of the machine is already crowded with people.

A mother and daughter are currently using this machine.

"To the left, a little to the left, let it go! Oh... what a pity, it's just a little bit..."

……

Seeing this, Tsuda Nao couldn't help but sniggered.

From the side, it further confirms the fact that Pokémon is indeed very popular.

"Qing Sang. Do you know who invented Neon's first claw machine?"

"Huh?" Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment.

He doesn't seem to have done much research on this matter.

Seeing that he did not answer for a long time, Tsuda Nao revealed the answer with a smile:
"Sega."

"Eh?"

Qing Zhiyuan did not expect this.

He knew that Sega started with arcade machines, but he didn't expect that Sega could even make claw machines, and it did it so early.

"To be precise, it is entirely Sega's credit that the mechanical arm like a crab clamp and the claw machine that can be controlled by up and down joysticks are developed to what it is today." Tsuda Nao said with a smile.

"Back then, Sega was a legendary company that was full of vigor and established itself in the sky with many arcade games."

Uh-huh.

Qing Zhiyuan nodded seriously.

"However, after decades, Sega has become an old company."

"Ok?"

"Look here in Ginza." Nao Tsuda directed Qing Zhiyuan's gaze.

"There are so many people out there who want to own a store here."

"But the actual situation is that if there is no development and innovation, the businesses here will only be abandoned by the times, and then replaced by newer ones."

"This is very similar to Sega, but it is different."

"Sega is very old, but Zhongshan is very courageous. Even in his 60s, he still has the courage to move forward without fear."

"A person like this can generally only be described as a gambler."

"However, only such gamblers can stand out in the tide of the times."

Just when Nao Tsuda was speaking, Hayao Nakayama's thinning but tenaciously covered hair on the top of his head and his pair of sharp eagle-like eyes appeared in Qing Zhiyuan's brain involuntarily.

A thought here.

Qing Zhiyuan could not help but shudder.

……

……

"The victory of Pokémon is not only the victory of pokeni, but also our victory."

In the steaming sauna room, Hayao Nakayama said so.

He sat motionless, his hair, which was not much in the first place, fell to one side and became damp under the action of steam and sweat.

Nakayama Hayao is like a stone Buddha, which is particularly terrifying in such an environment.

Even if he is not moving, you can feel a powerful force from him.

That kind of power permeates every cell of Hayao Nakayama, Qing Zhiyuan can't imagine what this person has experienced, just by looking at it, he feels that his pores are dilated.

Qing Zhiyuan smiled happily and politely, but he was very puzzled in his heart.

Big guys like saunas, right?
Urobuchi Gen also went to the sauna with him.

Now there is another Nakayama Hayao.

Sweat all over the body, and two big men are sitting in the sauna room, there is nothing, just sitting, this is strange in itself, okay?
"Qing Sang, it seems that you are enjoying the sauna very much." Nakayama Hayao glanced at him, and said with a subterranean smile.

"So-so." Qing Zhiyuan waved his hand.

Please don't say such strange things, okay?
If the boss didn't pull me to take a sauna, why would I come here?

"Isn't there an old saying in China, it's called prosperity?"

Hayao Nakayama said, "If you thrive in the sauna, you will have good luck in the future."

"After the sauna is over, go to the cold pool and take a comfortable cold bath to relax the muscles of the whole body. This is life." Nakayama Hayao's mouth twitched slightly.

Qing Zhiyuan thought, this guy must be smiling, right?
Moreover, you are just thriving, and you suddenly fell into the cold water, isn't it a bit unlucky, and it is too contradictory to what you said before?

However, Qing Zhiyuan didn't care about these details. He knew that the boss of Zhongshan was in a good mood now. After all, he had achieved good results, and there was still a long way to go. Everyone hoped for a good start and a good end .

"This time Sega GP can achieve a good sales growth rate, Qingsang, you are really indispensable." Nakayama Hayao said.

"No." Qing Zhiyuan shook his head again and again.

"Green mulberry."

Hayao Zhongshan turned his head, stared into Qing Zhiyuan's eyes and said seriously, "If there is no Qingsang, we would never have thought that there are such things as lithium batteries in the world, let alone lithium batteries and game consoles. Combining them can save the space of the game console, make the game console thinner, and provide good battery life.

Moreover, if there is no Pokemon of Pokeni, it is estimated that our current handheld games will hardly support the sales of game consoles. "

What Nakayama Hayao said is a fact, but it is not entirely true.

Qing Zhiyuan thought to himself.

It is not his credit, even if he is not aware of the role of lithium batteries now, he may not realize in the future that the development of technology has never been based on personal will.

It's just that Qing Zhiyuan accelerated the process and combined Sega and Sony.

And the latter's Pokémon is indeed promoted by pokeni.

Therefore, Qing Zhiyuan can only receive half of the round credit.

"The main reason is that Sega and Sony's technology is very strong, otherwise they would not be able to achieve such good results." Qing Zhiyuan smiled, "Sure enough, the future handhelds will definitely still be dominated by color screens."

Hayao Nakayama nodded with a smile.

He still agrees that the future handheld will be in color.

"But now the market is still dominated by GB." Hayao Nakayama couldn't help frowning when he thought of this.

And there is still a half-sentence to say, if you want to promote dominoes, pokeni and Sony alone are not enough, you need more third-party game manufacturers to come in.

Moreover, the real war is not on the handheld, but on the TV game console.

"As long as it continues, more and more game developers should join Sega in the future." Qing Zhiyuan responded.

"We all have a common opponent. I hope we can cooperate more in the future to drive it off the throne." Nakayama Hayao clenched his fists.

"Well, okay." Qing Zhiyuan nodded solemnly.
