Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 246 150.LIFE-LINE is on sale! !

Not long after returning to Neon, Qing Zhiyuan received a call from the other side of the Atlantic.

After David Breivik and the Scarfo brothers returned home, they launched a round of voting.

In the end, it was decided to accept pokeni's acquisition invitation with a unanimous vote.

Qing Zhiyuan hired specialized personnel to evaluate the current condo.

After some bargaining, Condor was finally brought under Pokeni's umbrella for US$1 million, becoming P's first base in the United States.

In the 1990s, although the United States had strict restrictions on Neon's semiconductor-related industries, the gaming aspect was not bad, otherwise Rentendo and Sega would not have been able to open branches in the United States.

Therefore, the whole process is not particularly complicated. As long as the relevant information is submitted to the relevant departments for review, the two parties sign the agreement and then review it, the acquisition is almost completed.

After the acquisition, the condor company officially changed its name to [Pokeni America]

…

The outside world did not pay much attention to pokeni's acquisition of condor company.

It was only mentioned in a small magazine in Neon China——

[Pokeni acquired an American company called condor for US$5 million.

According to relevant investigations, this condor company did not have any previous game works...]

A very small number of gamers saw this news and were quite surprised.

Furukawa Hirose and his friends are one of them.

"Pokeni actually acquired an American company? What's the reason for this? I don't think this company has any works."

"It must be for convenience."

Next to him, Kigami explained, "P Company has to recruit new people when setting up a company in the United States. There are a lot of registration procedures. If we just buy a team to take over, we will be able to establish a foothold in the United States in no time.

It seems that this guy Qing Zhiyuan is quite ambitious. "

"But if the team of this company is not very good, wouldn't it cause more trouble after buying it?"

Next to him, Hayamikawa had a different opinion, "What if something happens over there, and it's not someone Qing Zhiyuan trained himself, and there are differences and opinions about coordination and communication between the two parties, wouldn't it be more troublesome? "

"Well...it seems that's right."

"At this time, we can only look at Qing Zhiyuan's eyes."

"What vision does Qing Zhiyuan have? This team doesn't even have a decent work. No matter how discerning you are, you can't tell anything.

The people on this team had never successfully developed a game before.

Can you judge that this team is excellent just by what others say?

In this case, I feel that I can also become CEO of pokeni or something. "

"Uh... is there a possibility that Qing Zhiyuan is living by luck until now?

After meeting Gu Yuan Chunqiu, he completely handed over the company to Gu Yuan Chunqiu, which is why we are where we are today.

But it’s so easy to do something subjective and buy a company that you don’t understand? "

"Hahaha... It's really possible when you say that."

Regarding the fact that Paradox bought the company, the main reason is that condor is not well-known. If they bought a giant company like Westwood or EA, the topic would definitely be hot.

When people in the industry saw this news, at most they thought that Qing Zhiyuan wanted to buy a company for fun because he had too much money and too much leisure to spend.

Of course, there are also some little mysteries, such as Hiruda Masato, the president of the Elf Club, who feel that P Club must be playing a big game.

It doesn’t matter who this American company is, and it doesn’t matter whether the team is great or not. What’s important is that from now on, P will have a foothold in the United States, and then use this as a fulcrum to radiate to the entire Omi. In the future, P will probably have two blossoms. .

In fact, the current pokeni is also blooming in two years. The main audience of some games is in Neon China, mainly galgame or RPG full of Japanese flavor. Although "Upside Down Patma" has a high degree of innovation, it is still popular in the market. The Omi region is also popular among players, but the painting style has always been more Japanese-style.

The other part is in the Omi style, mainly Diablo.

As for whether future follow-up works of The Witcher will develop along this path, it is difficult to say.

However, the acquisition of P Club was only discussed by a small group of people for two days when it first appeared.

It didn't even cost a single splash, and it was quickly forgotten by the players.

…

"President, look at it, others don't care about our acquisition of CONDOR at all."

The next morning, the little HR put a coffee cup in front of Qing Zhiyuan.

I haven't forgotten to mock him.

Qing Zhiyuan looked unconcerned, and was even so happy that he wanted to laugh. The smile made Ayase Akane's scalp feel numb. She just thought that there would be something wrong with the president's brain, right?

After being robbed in the United States, were you stimulated?

What is that disease called?

Oh yeah, PTSD.

"That's just right." Qing Zhiyuan smiled lightly, picked up the coffee and took a sip.

I have to say that little HR is becoming more and more proficient in making coffee.

If he wasn't an HR person, he could have opened a coffee shop.

Thinking of this, Qing Zhiyuan also planned to change a set of coffee utensils and let Ayase Akane learn how to draw flowers.

"By the way, where were we talking about?"

Qing Zhiyuan raised his head in surprise, "Oh yes, acquisition."

"It's actually good that no one cares, but it's not good if the heat is high." Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "In ancient times, wars were fought in secret. The more they couldn't see through it, the more they couldn't understand what we were doing. , don’t care about what we are doing, but can buy enough time for us to pave the way for our future strategy.”

Tsk tsk.

Akane Ayase wrinkled her little nose.

President, you can brag every day.

This is just a strategic foreshadowing. If you had any great plans, you would have already announced them to the world. You wish everyone knew about them.

"And we are not Sony. We develop game consoles to avoid their sharp edges and avoid being targeted. What is there to hide in making games?"

Qing Zhiyuan frowned fiercely when he heard this.

Superficial, superficial.

If you were not in HR but in operations, I would have fired you long ago, okay?

"By the way, President, does Pokeni America need HR?" Akane Ayase asked casually.

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but look at her in surprise.

"What? You want to go?"

"Well... I have never been to the United States to experience it. If necessary, I will obey the president's arrangements." Akane Ayase smiled playfully.

This guy, what's on his mind is completely written on his face, okay? !

Do you really want to leave here?

"No need, I will recruit another HR person there when the time comes." Qing Zhiyuan said.

Well……

Little HR covered his chest, and a mouthful of old blood did not spurt out.

…

Players are more concerned about P’s upcoming new game “LIFE-LINE”

On November 8th, pokeni’s new game “LIFE-LINE” was officially released.

This time, as a long-time fan of pokeni, Furukawa Hirosawa did not hesitate at all and lined up at the door of the store early.

Yes, we actually have to queue today.

It's both unexpected and reasonable.

When the last game was released, the store entrance was extremely deserted, but this time it was extremely popular.

Mainly because CL's PV made players lose confidence. Later, word-of-mouth exploded, and the game reversed midway and became popular again.

After the last CL incident, no one dared to underestimate CL's PV.

It's like they made the promotional video or even the poster into a piece of shit. Everyone has to wonder whether it is a real piece of shit or is it actually a very delicious chocolate that looks like shit?

Being able to achieve this level can be said to have once again proved the strength of Tsubaki Furuhara and the talent of Hayao Miyazaki.

It can be said to be quite remarkable.

What's more, this time LL's PV is not a piece of shit.

The PV content alone can bring back memories of CL for countless players.

It is precisely because CL is so well done that it has made countless players cry and has once again become Chunqiu Furuhara's pinnacle work. This is why this new twin game LL is so anticipated by players.

Furukawa Hirose came here because of this.

Of course, the more important thing is that CL gave him confidence. Tsubaki Furuhara + Hayao Miyazaki are simply the best.

I misunderstood their work back then and said that CL might be an upset. I was indeed too ignorant.

Furukawa Hirosawa later bought three copies of CL's game discs to atone for his sins, and also gave many praises in pokeni's official forum.

Now, all players who have experienced CL have high expectations for LL.

The players queuing up had very mixed feelings.

"Whether to buy or not to buy, that is the question." said one of the boys in line.

"You're already queuing up here, and you're still worried about what to do. No matter what your mind is thinking, hasn't your body made the decision?" a girl said loudly.

Furukawa Haoze looked around and did not expect that there were girls in the team.

She is thin and small, but has a loud voice, which is in obvious contrast to her body shape.

"You boys are not as decisive as girls." The people behind laughed.

"You don't understand," the boy said with a wry smile, "The main reason is that the game works of this guy Chunqiu Furuhara have such a powerful impact on the soul. I don't even know if LL will be like CL."

Although the following words did not directly mention it, everyone's expressions dimmed.

It hurts, it hurts so much.

Whenever I think of Nagisa or Xi, my chest hurts so much that I can't breathe.

Everyone has been there before, and no one has ever shed tears when a macho man did it.

So don't laugh at anyone.

Who can stand in line here today and dare to stand up and say that I have never cried while playing CL?

I guess none of them can be found.

Everyone knows this well, and if you think about it carefully, you are actually like this. You want to buy LL, but you don't dare to buy it.

"It's just that the old thief Gu Yuan is not a human being. He has become more and more proficient in his unique skills."

"No, no matter how happy you laugh in front, you will cry miserably in the back."

"This time in CL, in order to achieve the hidden ending, I actually had to watch Nagisa die three times in a row. Can you understand this feeling?"

"Don't, stop talking. I don't want to remember..."

"Fortunately, the old thief has the last bit of compassion, so he left us a happy hidden ending, otherwise..."

"Otherwise, I should have reached the pokeni headquarters by now."

"Hahaha……"

There was laughter all around.

Furukawa Haoze also laughed.

But after the laughter, everyone fell into deathly silence again, and the expressions on their faces became even darker.

"Nenei, do you think LL is the same type?"

"The same type, what do you mean?" an older brother asked in confusion.

"It won't be as uncomfortable, right?"

Everyone was startled, and they all showed meaningful and unpredictable expressions.

"To be honest, now I am afraid that it will cause pain, but I am also afraid that it will not be painful enough. In short, I feel very conflicted."

"But if you don't buy it, you might feel even more regretful and uncomfortable, right?"

"That's right, P Club's games, especially those of Furuhara Chunqiu, would be a pity if you missed them, but it would also be a pity if you don't miss them."

"From then on, there was an inexplicable sad memory in my life. I didn't dare to think of it, and once I thought of it, I couldn't bear it."

"This is the charm of the old thief Gu Yuan."

"And hasn't the official made it clear that although LL's entire story setting, background, and characters have nothing to do with CL, and is a very independent game, is it considered a mirror image and supplement of CL?"

"The official said so, how could you not buy it?"

After some discussion, everyone’s determination to buy was firmed up.

Hirosawa Furukawa was in the queue, hoping to experience the game LL earlier.

…

There are a lot of people queuing up, and once someone starts talking, they can’t stop.

What's more, we all have the same interests, and we meet here today with the same purpose.

After chatting for a while, one of the boys asked:

"By the way, why do girls come to buy LL? Isn't this a harem-oriented beautiful girl strategy game?"

"Who said that? The official didn't give an accurate answer." The girl was obviously unhappy and felt that these guys were discriminating against her. "Many of the pokeni galgames are single-girl relationships.

Even the beautiful girl guide you say is true.

But in every timeline, isn't there only one girl who will be with the male protagonist forever?

Oh no, to be precise, it should be a romantic relationship, but whether they can be together forever is a question mark. "

"Ah this..."

It is simply a god-like understanding.

Every line was pure love, and everyone nodded in agreement. I finally realized it.

"However, many of the games that P Company has made before actually have a single female protagonist, such as "Mermaid Heart", "Reverse Degree", "Bedding Man", "Upside Down Patma"..."

"Yes, in a precise sense, CL can be regarded as a single heroine to a certain extent. It is obvious that the old thief Furuhara prefers Nagisa, so the entire subsequent chapter revolves around Nagisa's future life."

"You can tell from the names, Nagisa and Xi. Without Nagisa, there would be no Xi."

"Well, that's true."

"I just don't know who the heroine will be in LIFE-LINE this time. How many heroines will there be?"

"Of course the more the better."

The girl in front said with a smile.

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned.

Good guy, are you really a woman?

Why do you look hungrier than us?

…
