Game Development Giant

"Hello Mr. Li, I am Elizabeth Winnie, a reporter from Newsweek. What I want to ask is, how do you distinguish your computer from a home game console? I heard what you said before, and it seems that The computer you are going to make is just an expensive high-end game console that can only play a few games? To be honest, this is unattractive to most people."

The voice of this beautiful reporter is still very beautiful.

But there were some questions that Jester didn't want to answer right now, but his character didn't allow him to say no comment. So when faced with this question, Jester was silent for a few seconds, and then said directly: "Mr. Reporter, in fact, you made a mistake in your substitution. When I was preparing to create such a brand, I knew that it would definitely be a niche one, so at the beginning of the design, it was not prepared to be accepted by the vast majority of people. Like I just said, it's only for a select few who are receptive to experiencing what the next generation of gaming machines will be like."

"Then I can understand that it is just a game that can only play the games of the next era you mentioned, but the other functions are single, and it is just something to show off to other people who cannot play it?" The beautiful reporter's tone was aggressive, and she obviously had no intention of letting Jester go. The beautiful reporter smiled and was noncommittal.

"Beautiful lady, regarding your first question, my answer is no, this computer will have all the functions that other personal computers can have, we will find a software development company for our operating system, If you can't find it, then we will develop it ourselves. My reply to this can be simply summarized in this sentence: anything that can be done on other personal computers can still be done on our computers, and other You can’t do it on a PC, but we can still do it on our computers.”

"As for your second question, yes, the game function is our selling point. You can simply understand that this is a product to show off to people who can't own it." Jester said this question politely After replying, he didn't care about the beautiful reporter's emotions at all. Instead, he said directly to the emcee presiding over the meeting, "Next." This time, the person who was called by the emcee and stood up was a short middle-aged man with black hair and black pupils. It was extremely obvious from the moment he opened his mouth. With a retroflex sound, Jester instantly determined his nationality, which was Japanese.

Sure enough, the short middle-aged reporter stood up and bowed slightly. Then he introduced himself: "Mr. Li, I am Kimura Yuyuki, a reporter from "Asahi Shimbun". What I want to ask is that at the Nintendo press conference before. They are equipped with incredible light on the Nintendo advanced audio-visual system that is ready to be released. Guns are magical peripherals that have caused quite a stir. To be honest, I don’t see any essential difference between the home game console you announced earlier called Dreambox and Atari’s game console. .”

"Haha." Jester sneered at first. He had thought of this kind of problem before, and he could judge it. This reporter from the "Asahi Shimbun" must have been instigated by Nintendo to ask such an obviously offensive question.

Although they are all questions, this question is essentially different from the previous questions he asked about the high-end gaming computer he was about to launch. One is a deliberate provocation, while the other is not.

Therefore, this time Jester's tone was not as gentle as it was at the beginning, but became stern.

"Mr. Kimura, I majored in electrical engineering. I don't know what major you majored in in college. Maybe your major is not the right one, so your knowledge of hardware is limited. Judging from your question just now, , I find that you do not have a clear understanding of which technologies are advanced and which are backward. I think that when your newspaper sends a reporter to cover a high-tech product exhibition, it is better to send a reporter with some professional knowledge instead of sending someone like you. , people who know almost nothing about this aspect come to smear your newspaper.”

As soon as Jester finished saying this, the reporters or players present immediately burst into laughter. Americans inherently lack a good impression of the Japanese, especially now that Japan's manufacturing industry is counterattacking the United States, and this person is Kimura Yu. The reporter's face suddenly turned red. He himself had never thought that Jester, the boss of a company, would be so heartless and directly say such bad things to him in public. He was about to reprimand him angrily, but... Jester spoke first and interrupted. , "To be honest, I don't think light guns are a very high-tech technology. You can ask any hardware engineer and they will tell you that we did not equip our home games with similar technology from the beginning. peripherals, just because we want to focus on making a powerful game console, because for us and players who are planning to buy a home game console, the game console itself is the key, and the peripherals are just auxiliary. If we just show off the peripherals, To assume and ignore the ontology is to put the cart before the horse in our view.”

"Now that our home game console is finished, we will naturally make many peripherals, not just the light gun that looks like a child's toy that Nintendo just showed at their press conference. As for what it has, I can only I said stay tuned, in short, our designers have great ideas.”

After finishing speaking, Jester no longer wanted to give the Asahi Shimbun reporter a chance to continue asking questions, and directly asked the host to call the next person.

Because I had already called on several reporters in succession, I called on several fans of Mars Entertainment in succession. The questions they asked were all about games. They were not difficult to answer. Jester also smiled one by one. Made some interesting replies.

But just as the question and answer session was going on, a man with a short stature, black hair, and a yellow face, wearing a black suit, walked in hurriedly. He first glanced around, maybe looking for a target. Then he walked directly towards Jester, who had sat back in his seat, his face turned red, and his eyes were looking fiercely at the conversation. He was still walking next to Kimura Yuyuki, who was still muttering something in a vicious whisper.

Kimura Yuyuki glanced at the man in black, his face changed slightly, and then nodded calmly, and the man in black quietly handed a piece of paper to Yuyuki Kimura, and then stopped moving. He left sensually.

It wasn't until the man in black left that Kimura Yuyuki unfolded the ball of paper in his hand, and then his expression changed instantly. He sneered twice at first, and at the same time, the look he looked at Jester became more and more malicious. Obviously, there was something detrimental to Jester on the piece of paper that the man in black just handed him. information.

Because he has already had a chance to ask questions, according to the rules, it is impossible for him to get a second time, and the information in his hand is also powerful enough. Therefore, he was so itchy that he didn't care that someone else was asking questions, but he stood up unceremoniously. He didn't have a microphone. I could only shout with all my strength.

"Mr. Li, I have just received news about the emulator you showed at the previous press conference. Nintendo has officially sent you a stern official letter. Asking you to make a decision regarding the infringement of the emulator. Is there such a thing as apology and compensation?”

When he suddenly stood up, many people were dissatisfied. But after hearing him say such explosive news, except for the person who was just about to tell his problem, everyone else who could hear what he just said focused their attention on him.

There was no dissatisfaction in these people's eyes, only excitement.

Jester also heard the words of the Japanese reporter who he had just ridiculed. His expression changed slightly. It was not surprising that Nintendo would send an official letter to him because of the emulator. After all, he was facing the level he had experienced before. It would be too cowardly for them not to fight back against the provocation.

But he didn't expect Nintendo to be so fast. Before his Q\u0026A session ended, their official letter was sent.

If the Japanese reporter hadn't said that, he himself would not have been notified of the news.

According to the rules of this question-and-answer session, the security guards can naturally remove people who blatantly disrupt order. However, Jester did not intend to do so immediately. He first signaled to give the Japanese reporter a microphone, and then asked the reporter who had already rushed The security guards who came over should not take action for the time being.

In order for everyone present to hear clearly what the Japanese reporter just said, Jester motioned for him to repeat the previous question.

After the other party finished repeating it, Jester shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, I haven't received such news yet, but I can ask, and I don't think this is any infringement. This is what our employees are doing. It’s fun while working, and we’re not taking advantage of the opportunity to make a profit at all.”

After saying that, Jester asked the people around him to call and inquire about the situation. Two minutes later, the employee who went out to make a call quickly came back and whispered a few words into Jester's ear. It was so small that no one could hear it clearly except Jester.

The reporters below and others were all waiting for Jester's answer.

And Jester did not disappoint them. He nodded to the subordinate who went out to inquire to express his gratitude, and then said to the reporters in the audience without changing his expression: "What the Japanese journalist friend said just now is indeed true. We have indeed received an official letter from Nintendo of America."

As soon as Jester finished speaking, there was an uproar below the stage. In the United States, infringement is not a trivial matter.

"Then Mr. Li, don't you have anything to say about this?" At this time, the Japanese reporter who had just been ridiculed by Jester suddenly started questioning him with some triumph.

The people present were also waiting for Jester's answer.

Jester did not answer directly, but just looked at Yuichi Kimura with a very strange look. He asked in a very strange tone: "Mr. reporter, are you really from the Asahi Shimbun?" Reporter? How could you get the news about Nintendo’s official letter earlier than me, the chairman of Mars Entertainment?”

This question made Kimura Yuyuki a little speechless. He couldn't say that he was hired by Nintendo to make trouble for you.

So he had no choice but to bite the bullet and keep asking Jester about the infringement, and this was the question that made other people present even more concerned.

In response, Jester just smiled indifferently and said in a crisp tone.

"I believe our country is a country governed by the rule of law. If Nintendo really feels that it is infringement for us to make an emulator that will not be sold and cannot be profitable, then just go ahead and sue me. I believe our fair judges will make a decision on this." Correct verdict, otherwise, all the excuses and rhetoric will be of no use. I gave this demonstration before, maybe my meaning was not so clear. I will repeat it now, I just want to make everyone American gamers know what a piece of shit Nintendo's consoles are."

"Okay, I'm done, security, please drive this gentleman out. People who are so rude and do not obey the rules are not welcome here. Are you Japanese all like this?"

As soon as Jester finished speaking, the whole place was in an uproar again.
