Game Development Giant

The situation in the country at that time was not the situation in the country more than 20 years later.

More than twenty years later, the country is so rich that it can buy the whole world, which is very similar to Japan in this era, the late 1980s and the early 1990s.

In this era of handover from the 1990s to 1990s, it is not nice to say something unpleasant.

Not only in the eyes of ordinary people, but also in the eyes of those proud people who have received high-level elite education, the moon in foreign countries is extremely round. To say it is 100% is a bit absolute, but to say it is 90% certain is not true. Including college students, as long as they are given the opportunity to go abroad after graduation, many people are still willing to give up the opportunity.

Therefore, Jester is not too worried that Fu Zan will not be able to do this at home, because he has given Fu Zan greater power to do this this time.

However, there are still too few people in China who truly think like game designers. After all, these people may have never been exposed to electronic games before graduating from college. Even before joining Fu Zan’s development studio, they had no experience with electronic games. They don’t know anything about the game and lack twenty years of accumulation. In other words, these people are ten or twenty years behind their starting point compared to their foreign peers and the same competitors in how to do it. For a good game, it is lagging behind in all aspects.

Therefore, Jester is not very satisfied with the ten domestic designers Fu Zan has sent for training in the past two years. However, these people work very hard. Although they still cannot catch up with some European and American peers, Jester I believe that if you keep working hard, you will always gain something in the future.

Kutaragi Ken drove directly to Sega's headquarters.

Then, regardless of the Sega people's obstruction, he angrily rushed to Nakayama Hayao's office. Nakayama Hayao raised his head and glanced at Kutaragi Ken, then waved his hand to let the person who blocked Kutaragi Ken leave.

Why didn't you give me a call before you came?

After letting Kutaragi Ken sit down, Nakayama Hayao asked him with a smile.

But this time Kutaragi Ken was obviously very angry. Before Nakayama Hayao could finish his words, he slapped the glass coffee table in front of him hard.

President Zhongshan, I don't have time to talk to you about these irrelevant things. You must know the reason for my coming this time. I want an explanation, and I only want an explanation.

Kutaragi Ken said it categorically.

But anyone can hear from his tone the kind of anger that seems to choose someone to devour.

This can't help but Kutaragi Kenfu being angry, because Nintendo's example is still alive before our eyes. If Jester unites with Sega this time to deal with him in the same way as he dealt with Nintendo, he really lacks the means to fight against this conspiracy.

hehe.

Nakayama Hayao chuckled lightly at first, and then his expression changed.

Kutaragi, you asked me the same question a few days ago, and I answered you then. I said it. I know better than you the truth about the death of lips and teeth. I am not old yet and my eyes are not dim yet. To the point where we can’t tell what would be better for us!”

When saying this, Nakayama Hayao's tone was also very unfriendly.

To this. Kutaragi Ken obviously doesn't believe it now, because Sega must have completed some agreement with Jester in the United States this time that he doesn't know about. This is the biggest threat to him. In his eyes, they were the only two Japanese companies that were linked together, at least temporarily. Only then can we survive in the current world of video games.

But you have reached an agreement! President Nakayama, please don't insult my intelligence. Do you want to tell me that there is no such agreement at all? You want to tell me that Mr. Suzuki Yu will be published in Game magazine in a few days The interview article was just a smoke bomb, didn’t this happen at all?” When he said this, Kutaragi Ken had already taken an obviously sarcastic tone.

Nakayama Hayao was silent for a while.

Then he said.

I can explain this matter, but it is definitely not what you think. Kutaragi, I know better than you that if we separate at this time, it will have a very bad impact on both of our families. Now we are partners. It will benefit both parties, and separate it will cause two harms. This is a matter of life and death, and I will not joke about this kind of issue.

hehe.

When Kutaragi Ken heard what Nakayama Hayao said, his heart moved at first, but he still laughed in a mocking tone.

Then explain what the agreement you reached with Mars Entertainment is about.

this matter……

Nakayama Hayao frowned. He obviously didn't want to say anything. However, after hesitating for a while, he still said: I can only guarantee that this matter has nothing to do with you Sony. It has nothing to do with you. It's our internal affairs at Sega. What is the content of the agreement? You will naturally know it after the interview with Yu Suzuki is released in a few days. For the rest, I have no comment. This is between us and Jess. A special agreement.

snort.

Kutaragi Ken obviously didn't believe what Nakayama Hayao said, and he snorted disdainfully.

You think I'll believe it?

Whether you want to believe it or not is up to you. This is what I can explain to you. I can swear on my decades-long reputation in the industry that what I said before is absolutely not the slightest bit false. Nakayama Hayao is obviously concerned about Kutaragi Ken was extremely dissatisfied with this aggressive tone. After he said this, he stood up directly and stretched out an arm towards the door.

The order of expulsion was issued in a very rude tone.

Mr. Kutaragi, if you have nothing else to do, then please leave.

After leaving the Sega headquarters, Kutaragi Ken thought over and over in the car what Hayao Nakayama had said to him before. At first, Kutaragi Ken really didn't believe it, but in the end, Nakayama Hayao swore this with his reputation. When he said the words, Kutaragi Ken believed it. Moreover, now that his anger had subsided and he calmed down, he thought about it carefully. It was true that he was a little overwhelmed by anger at the beginning.

There was no way, he had just learned about Jester's complete, huge, crazy game plan.

What he could see from Jester's new game plan was Jester's talent and ambition for the game. Of course, he also clearly saw the difficulties involved.

Because he is a very good Sony hardware engineer, and he is responsible for the planning of the new PS series consoles. He is very clear about how much power is needed to complete such a game, and he can do it without any effort. To put it politely, even if all the theoretical functions of the current PS2 console he is working on can be fully utilized, it is absolutely impossible to complete such a game.

He had previously held a meeting within the hardware development team to discuss this aspect.

However, the vast majority of people do not believe that Jester can complete the game with a completely free world setting that he talks about. Although they all admit that this is most likely the future of games, but the future is always The future cannot be accomplished now.

When Ken Kutaragi asked if it was possible to revise the hardware development plan so that the performance of the console after the revised design could meet the requirements of such a game, was it possible?

Even people in the hardware development department started arguing.

It can be said that Kutaragi Ken was in a mess at the time. He was worried that Jester would actually complete such a game in the future, and he was also worried about what he would be able to come up with to fight if that day came.

It was at this time that when he heard that Hayao Nakayama had reached an undisclosed agreement with Jester in the United States, he rushed directly to Sega's headquarters without calming down and thinking about it carefully. Questioning Nakayama Hayao, you must know that no matter what, in the video game world, he can only be regarded as a junior in front of Nakayama Hayao.

This is extremely rude.

Although Kutaragi Ken already believed that what Sega and Jester had reached was just a very ordinary cooperation agreement between companies, he still had a doubt in his heart.

So what exactly is this agreement?

Although Nakayama Hayao didn't tell him, he also explained that he would know what happened when Suzuki Yu was interviewed a few days later. Thinking of this, Kutaragi Ken couldn't help but have a guess. This time The matter may not have much to do with Sega, but probably only with Yu Suzuki?

But what could bring Yu Suzuki and Jester together?

Kutaragi Ken couldn't figure it out after thinking about it.

He even thought about whether it was Jester who poached Suzuki Yu, but he quickly threw this unrealistic idea out of the sky because he thought that Nakayama Hayao's expression at that time was obviously impossible, because As Sega's ace and the soul of game development, Suzuki Yu, if he was really poached by Jester, Nakayama Hayao would be even more angry than him.

It is absolutely impossible to still sit still in the office.

It can even be said bluntly that if this kind of thing really happens, instead of going to Nakayama Hayao himself, Nakayama Hayao will come to him to discuss a solution.

California.

Jester has been preparing for the preliminary preparations for the game in China these days. He is still thinking about the first batch of people to go with him. The first batch of people does not need to be many, but they must be good, especially the painters. This time, he is going to several places in the country to let his painters have a taste of what the game scenes they want to design look like. (To be continued...)
