Is it not a galgame?

Chapter 138 42. Is this a movie? !

"Then this time, I will trouble President Hattori a lot."

Kazuma Takahashi, the head of pokeni's operations department, raised the wine glass in his hand and said with a smile.

"It's easy to say, after all, it's not the first time we've cooperated." Hiroyuki Hattori smiled all over his face, touched him, and drank the wine in his glass.

"I wish the game a big sale!"

"Thank you, President Hattori." Kazuma Takahashi nodded slightly, and responded with a pleasant smile.

In a daze, Hattori Hiroyuki saw the person in front of him as Qing Zhiyuan, and instinctively wanted to pull him to play golf or something, but when he was about to speak, he suddenly came back to his senses.

He found that the person sitting in front of him was no longer Qing Zhiyuan.

Kazuma Takahashi can be regarded as one of the few people in pokeni with relatively good looks, but he still can't compare with Qing Zhiyuan.

"Come on." Hattori Hiroyuki said with a sigh.

After the reception, Kazuma Takahashi personally sent Hiroyuki Hattori to the car.

Qing Zhiyuan transferred the corresponding business to the company's operation department, and Kazuma Takahashi went to the dealers for dinner, and small gifts must also be necessary.

After getting in the car, Hiroyuki Hattori looked at the gift box in his arms. Although it was still in the same packaging, after changing the person, he always felt that something was wrong.

Qing Zhiyuan, the president, is also young and good-looking.

Much better than Kazuma Takahashi.

But for some reason, Hiroyuki Hattori didn't seem to enjoy his meal so much today.

It wasn't that he didn't drink enough, or that he felt that there was something wrong with Kazuma Takahashi.

This middle-aged man is a little more mature and comfortable in dealing with problems, but it makes you less aggressive, and drinking with Kazuma Takahashi is really business-like.

The whole wine situation was very logical, there was nothing wrong with it, but there was nothing wrong with it.

In short, it is too stable.

After a while, Hattori Hiroyuki realized the difference between——

After switching to Takahashi Kazuma, I lost a sense of disgust.

Yes, disgust.

This is the first time Hiroyuki Hattori saw Qing Zhiyuan, and even up to now he has no feeling of lack.

Good-looking, young, and able to make money, especially being able to get Tsuda Nao's heartfelt love instead of perfunctory, these all make Hattori Hiroyuki disgusted.

"Hey."

Hattori Hiroyuki sighed, there are no annoying people, and the fun is much less.

Since Qing Zhiyuan on Pokeni's side is not coming to matchmaking, should Dongrun's side also consider finding someone who is more suitable for negotiating with Kazuma Takahashi in the future?
The reason why I ate with Qing Zhiyuan in the past was mainly because it was the first time that Tsuda Nao brought him.

Later, Nao Tsuda was also gone, and Hiroyuki Hattori himself didn't know why he wanted to have dinner with Qing Zhiyuan.

At this moment, Qing Zhiyuan was replaced by Takahashi Kazuma...

Hattori Hiroyuki felt an inexplicable melancholy in his chest, he involuntarily lowered the car window, and lit a cigarette for himself.

Taking a deep breath, he let out a mouthful of stale air, leaning his head on the back of the chair, feeling a sense of relaxation all over his body.

But more is-

I always feel a little lonely.

The same meal, the last one left is myself.

Hattori Hiroyuki really wanted to switch to someone else.

"President, why don't you take the initiative to invite President Qing to have dinner and play golf?" The driver's voice came from the front.

Hiroyuki Hattori's finger holding the cigarette stopped, he raised his head and glanced, complaining, "You're the only one who talks too much."

The driver hurriedly drove the car attentively, but he felt inwardly that——

Or do you miss President Tsuda?
Silence for a few seconds.

"But Qing Zhiyuan is really annoying." Hattori Hiroyuki said to himself.

Just then, the car stopped.

Hattori Hiroyuki raised his head and looked around in confusion, only to find that it was still in the old place, with trash cans on the side of the street.

The driver waited quietly.

Hattori Hiroyuki thought for two seconds, and still threw the "Your Name" cassette into the trash can on the side of the road.

……

After entering November, pokeni also began to make efforts to promote "Your Name".

After signing contracts with major game distributors, Takahashi started the post-publicity work non-stop. Not only did he post "Your Name" game posters in major stores, but he also specially produced corresponding promotional materials. piece.

Now that Pokeni has money, as the head of the operation department, Kazuma Takahashi has a lot of confidence.

This is the so-called rich heart without panic.

Qing Zhiyuan gave Takahashi Kazuma high operating costs and space, as long as he can think of it, he can let it go.

In a word it is——

Pokeni is not short of money now.

On November 11th, the PV of "Your Name" was broadcast on major TV stations.

At 7 o'clock in the evening, Masato Hiruta, the president of the elf club, hadn't left the company, but was quietly waiting in front of the TV, waiting for the promotional video of the new pokeni game.

ELF Club, also known as Elven Club, is a very famous galgame game production company in the previous life, the most famous work is the students of the same grade.

In this life, Hiruta Masato was inspired by many pokeni, and followed Qing Zhiyuan's footsteps all the way on the road of galgame.

Although he has never met Qing Zhiyuan, for Hiruta Masato, Club P is the teacher of the Spirit Club.

They learned a lot from Paradigm.

In the second half of this year, Spirit Club published "Students of the Same Level", which imitated the aesthetic style of P Club, and improved the game production. Once this love cultivation type game was launched, it immediately detonated the market and became a great success. .

So far, Spirit Club has achieved quite good results by touching the P Club to cross the river.

So Hiruta Masato pays special attention to every new work of P Club, especially galgame.

This time the name of the king is no exception.

Since Guo Letong reported, Masato Hiruta has great expectations for this game, whether it is in the style of painting or the theme of the city, it is something that Masato Hiruta is interested in.

"Your Name" should be another urban theme after "The Reversed Man".

The Spirit Society is also very interested in this part now.

Hiruta Masato's own philosophy is——

If the graphics and characters can be done well, then galgame is already half successful.

But it would be a waste to have such beautiful characters without a good story.

Pokeni is a company that has perfectly fulfilled his ideals.

And just today, the promotional video of "Your Name" will be broadcast on TEPCO.

Although PV is also a kind of advertisement, it is different from advertisements. Its duration will be longer, but the cost is also huge. The broadcast time on TV stations is often shorter than that of ordinary advertisements.

It is roughly equivalent to a promotional period of about two weeks at most until the game is released.

Although the size of the game is limited, there is no way to add too much cg content, but there are no such restrictions in commercials and TV PV.

So it can be done quite beautifully.

……

7 pm.

The PV of "Your Name" was broadcast on time.

Hiruta Masato suddenly opened his eyes wide.

In the TV, a picture of the night sky appeared.

Although it is a night sky, the light is not dim. The background is dark purple, full of layers, and the farther you go, the deeper the city becomes.

At the same time, several long rays of light slowly fell from above.

It's the meteor trailing its bright tail.

The one in the middle still has a magnificent golden color.

The whole picture is rendered beautifully and flawlessly, which makes people feel excited at a glance.

At the same time, as the meteor fell, the background color of the sky below was also changing, rapidly changing from night sky to brilliant dawn.

The white sea of ​​clouds covers the bottom of the entire picture, and above it is a golden orange color rendered by the breaking sun. There is a faint red halo at the junction, which makes the falling meteors blend into one.

"What kind of god-level painting is this?" Hiruta Masato sighed.

"It's not like the style of Kyoto Animation."

Although it doesn't look like the style of Kyoto Animation, everyone can't say what style Kyoto Animation is.

The style of pokeni is becoming more and more obvious.

And the painting style of the name of the king has obviously stepped up to a higher level.

It was limited by the performance of the game before, but now it is directly switched to the TV, which is naturally extraordinary.

This is almost at the level of finesse at the film level.

And whether it is the night sky, shooting stars, sky or characters, they all have advanced aesthetics, so that people can be deeply attracted by this style just by taking a look at it.

At the same time, a crisp and lovely girl's voice sounded in the screen:
"every morning."

"When I wake up."

"I don't know why I'm crying."

The screen switched, and back to the metropolis, a girl was sitting at home, covering one eye with her hand.

The background light was white and fuzzy, but the lamp nearby was exceptionally clear, as if it corresponded to a dream.

At this point, the voice in the screen changed and turned into a boy's voice:
"Obviously a dream."

"But I can't always remember."

"only……"

"It's just..." (female voice)

The two voices sounded at the same time, as if echoing each other.

"I've been looking for something."

"Do not you remember?!"

A red rope is swinging, as if to connect the past and the present.

At this moment, the actor's eyes suddenly opened.

The whole picture cheered up, and at the same time, the BGM also sounded.

The screen switches quickly, observing the changes in the whole world from the perspectives of the male and female protagonists.

The male protagonist who is going to school in Tokyo has words written all over his arms.

The heroine in Xiaocun Town wakes up, and finds that there are contents in her notebook that do not belong to her records...

The whole picture was extremely cheerful, but everyone's interest was immediately aroused.

"We were in a dream...".
"Exchanged identities?!"

……

ha? !

Hiruta Masato's jaw dropped from shock.

Nani?

Swap bodies?

What is this setting?
Sure enough... pokeni never disappoints.

Especially when it comes to creativity.

In fact, body swapping is nothing new. As early as 1982, the Japanese movie "Transfer Student" told a comedy story about two childhood sweethearts, a boy and a girl, who swapped their bodies.

It's just that it's not used very frequently and widely, and it's been 1982 years since 10.

In addition, the painting of "Your Name" is very pleasing, and the background of the times is closely related to the present, which makes people feel extremely interesting for a while.

"No, it's not a dream."

The male and female protagonists began to run separately, under the sun, in the cities where they lived.

The picture is still exquisite and scary.

And the character design is very modern.

The two said in unison——

"that person!"

"I can't remember that person's name!"

"I've always wanted to tell you."

"Wherever you are."

"I must go to see you!"

……

Meteors roared past, corresponding to the opening.

At the same time, a few lines of large characters appeared on the screen——

【The Work of Guyuan Chunqiu's Retirement】

[On December 1992, 12, "Your Name" was officially released]

【The price is only 8999】

【Absolutely Touching Work】

[The wonderful journey of boys and girls swapping bodies]

【Wait for you】

……

After watching it, Masato Hiruta, the president of the Spirit Club, couldn't calm down for a long time.

To be precise, I was mobilized by the current PV.

The promotional video is only less than 1 minute long, but it contains a huge amount of information, and all the selling points of the game are printed out.

After reading it, Masato Hiruta had only one thought in his heart——

wanna play.

Definitely go play this game.

Masato Hiruta thought of this, climbed to the side of the TV, and turned back the video tape he had just recorded, ready to watch it again.

Until now, he had never seen any game promotional video that did this.

In other words, there is no PV of any game that can achieve this level.

"Wait," the moment Hiruta Masato pressed the remote control, doubts arose in his brain, "This is... a game?!"

Isn't this really a promotional video for an animated movie? !
……

"Huh? This is actually a game promotional video?!"

Meanwhile, in Studio Ghibli, the bearded Hayao Miyazaki sighed.

At the age of 51, Hayao Miyazaki did not have all white beard and hair, and looked more like a naive uncle next door.

It was just a glimpse at first, but I didn't expect to see such an amazing PV tonight.

"Your Name" really surprised Hayao Miyazaki.

Computers are not popular yet, that is to say, Junzhiming’s PV is basically a hand-painted animation method, but the original painting is provided by Nijin Cheng of pokeni (of course, Qing Zhiyuan also corrected part of it, trying to make the The sense of picture is closer to Xin Haicheng's works in his own mind).

However, even at this level, it is enough to make people notice the radiance blooming from this young painter.

The assistant Kondo Yoshifumi nodded, and said in disbelief, "Yeah, this level can already be used to make animated movies, right?"

And judging from the subject matter, the story should also be super interesting.

Kondo Yoshifumi is Hayao Miyazaki's right-hand man. In his previous life, he was in charge of the production of "Listen to You".

Hayao Miyazaki was puzzled for a long time, and asked a question, "How to play this kind of game?"

In his impression, the game should be like Super Mario, manipulating villains to interact.

But if a game with a strong storyline looks like a cartoon, how can players interact?

"Well... I don't know about that either." Kondo Yoshifumi smiled awkwardly.

"Are we too outdated?"

Hayao Miyazaki looked at the screen on the TV, his eyes sparkled, "I want to experience this game once."
