Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 292 196. Who do you look down on?

"congratulations!"

Kutaragi Ken raised his glass and touched it with Qing Zhiyuan.

The two of them took a sip with a smile on their face, then slowly put the cup down, looked at each other and laughed happily again.

One is Ken Kutaragi with a fleshy face and short and fat body, and the opposite is a pretty boy named Aojimoto.

When he smiles, he looks evil and evil.

This scene is quite similar to the famous scenes in movies and TV shows after the bad guys succeed in their conspiracy.

In this month, not only the sales of 3D Pokémon have been booming, but the sales of PS game consoles have also made a small leap.

It can be seen from Sony's own internal data that the sales performance of these game consoles must have been affected by Pokémon.

So this time, Kutaragi Ken specially invited Qing Zhiyuan out for dinner and drinks. In order to celebrate such good sales results, Kutaragi Ken also specially prepared a gift.

"President Qing, congratulations on the sales of Pokémon 3D reaching one million. I also hope that the sales of Pokémon 3D World will get better and better, and we will strive to exceed 5 million as soon as possible!"

5000000? !

Qing Zhiyuan glanced at him sideways.

Who do you look down on?

5000000.

Do you know this is the world’s number one IP?

And, the most important thing is——

My "Pokémon 3D World" is the ultimate weapon developed by combining Pokémon and Super Mario 3D World.

No matter what, you have to sell 10 million copies, right?

Qing Zhiyuan even vaguely feels that the global sales of this game may exceed this number within this year.

Qing Zhiyuan said with a joking smile, "Kutaragi-san, why don't you wish me more? It would be great to round up the number to 10 million."

Kutaragi Ken was stunned for a moment.

It seems that I didn't expect that the president Qing Zhiyuan was so thick-skinned, and he really didn't act according to common sense at all.

However, Qing Zhiyuan's words did not arouse Kutaragi Ken's disgust, and even made him laugh.

"Hahahaha...I'm sorry, it's my problem."

Mr. Kutaragi bowed slightly, then smiled again and said, "I hope that the game "Pokémon 3D World" will be a big hit and the sales volume will exceed 10 million copies!

No, it exceeded 50 million copies! "

Of course Kutaragi Ken also hopes that their game can sell 10 million copies, or even 100 million copies, because one game disc corresponds to one game console.

If "Pokémon 3D World" can really break through 100 million copies, wouldn't Sony's PS also have to sell like crazy?

However, Kutaragi Ken had never dreamed of such a thing.

It's completely unthinkable.

However, now seeing Qing Zhiyuan's lofty sentiments, being infected by him, and drinking two more glasses of wine, Kutaragi Ken got a little carried away and directly let out 50 million cruel words.

"Hahahaha," Qing Zhiyuan burst into laughter, thinking that Kutaragi Ken is really too cute.

"Then I also wish Sony's PS will be a big hit, sales will get better and better, and it will exceed 100 million as soon as possible!" Qing Zhiyuan shouted directly.

Kutaragi Ken was shocked when he heard the unit of 100 million.

But he quickly adjusted to it. Who wouldn't be able to brag?

The atmosphere is so lively now, and bragging a little bit won't hurt.

"Okay! Try to break 100 million!"

Kutaragi Ken raised his glass again.

…

Kutaragi Ken thought he was bragging, but Qing Zhiyuan didn't think so.

You must know that the sales volume of Sony PS in the previous life was measured in hundreds of millions.

Otherwise, how could this game machine defeat Rentian to become the number one console and win the entire game console war?

However, Qing Zhiyuan did not spoil this matter.

Seeing Kutaragi smiling very happily, he became happy too.

ah!

Qing Zhiyuan is really envious of this feeling of managing things step by step, starting from scratch, and then becoming number one in the world.

In two years' time, when Sony is firmly in the top spot, Mr. Kutaragi will surely enjoy the bitterness and joy along the way.

The sense of accomplishment of working hard with your own hands and trying to stand on top of the world is really unparalleled and wonderful.

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but think about it.

…

After drinking for three rounds, both of them were a little tipsy and chatted a lot. Everyone was in a very happy mood.

This is the so-called feeling of being in high spirits during happy events. The cooperation between Sony and pokeni so far can be described as a close bond. The two people in the honeymoon period have infinite beautiful imagination and longing for the future.

"By the way, Mr. Kutaragi, when do you plan to develop PS2?" Qing Zhiyuan asked, "I heard that Rentendo seems to be developing a new 64-bit machine recently."

"Um?"

Kutaragi raised his head and looked at Qing Zhiyuan with somewhat confused eyes.

He thought for two seconds and finally came to his senses.

"It's still early." Ken Kutaragi shook his glass and said with a smile, "From the company's strategic perspective, PS has only been released for less than a year, and there is still a lot of market space that can be tapped.

New game consoles are not launched so quickly.

Now that PS is enough to meet the needs of most games on the market, it may still be relatively early to develop games that surpass the performance of game consoles. "

It can meet most gaming needs, are you sure?

Qing Zhiyuan looked at Kutaragi Ken with some resentment.

If possible, he would like Sony's game consoles to be updated once a year and support game performance that is 500 times more powerful than now.

I’m not bragging, I’m full of games, and every game that comes out can drain the gaming performance of your PS.

"As for the 64-bit ones in Rentendo?" Kutaragi Ken laughed a little contemptuously, "They don't have this level of technology."

When it comes to Rentendo, Kutaragi Ken feels like a big injustice, and his stomach is full of bitterness.

I worked hard to help others develop game consoles, but was abandoned by this scumbag Yamauchi halfway through.

Fortunately, I met pokeni later.

Thinking of this, Kutaragi Ken was really filled with emotion and felt that his luck was really good.

In that case, I met Qing Zhiyuan.

"Thank you pokeni for your strong support to Sony. President Ao, come on, let me toast you with another drink." Kutaragi Ken raised his glass.

He didn't care about Qing Zhiyuan's actions and just felt bored.

It's up, it's up.

Kutaragi Ken was usually very calm and unlikely to speak out loud, but now he directly forced out his inner thoughts.

Qing Zhiyuan shook his head and smiled bitterly, then drank the glass of wine too.

…

"By the way, President Ao," Kutaragi Ken was a little confused after drinking, but before saying goodbye, he suddenly remembered something very important.

"How have you pokeni considered the Electronic Entertainment Industry Association thing I told you about last time?"

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

Indeed, this person mentioned this matter at the end of last year.

“To be honest,” Kutaragi said, “Now, besides Sega and Rentendo, many game companies have agreed to join this association.

Konami, Square Enix, Koei, Namco...our association is short of pokeni. "

The Electronic Entertainment Industry Association is actually another form of cake making.

In the past, Sony's influence was not that big, but after more than half a year, after Sony's PS sales successfully exceeded 10 million copies, many game manufacturers seem to be less tight-lipped.

There were even many who took the initiative to hug Sony's lap.

Even guys like Square who are still eating Rentendo's rice can't help but want to develop Final Fantasy 7 on PS. That is the company's trump card.

This is when you gain strength, you will find that the world is beautiful, and the kindness of people around you will increase.

Kutaragi Ken also gained confidence step by step through this process, and now his tone of voice is much more domineering. He is completely different from the somewhat naive engineer Qing Zhiyuan met back then.

"Well, no problem." Qing Zhiyuan nodded.

Qing Zhiyuan's main thing is to accept everyone who comes.

Sony organized an electronic entertainment industry association to invite me, and I joined. In the future, Sega will also organize an electronic interactive association, and I joined.

Anyway, Qing Zhiyuan is a long-sleeved man who can do both right and left.

My time is still behind me.

…

A week later.

Roppongi.

In the evening, more than 50 employees from the entire Pokémon project team gathered together at the Ryutei Wagyu BBQ restaurant.

Even the barbecue table is spread from one end of the store to the other.

Highlight a huge momentum.

"Congratulations on the great sales of "Pokémon 3D World"!!!"

Qing Zhiyuan raised his wine glass high to congratulate everyone.

"big sale!!!"

Everyone raised their glasses.

The faces of the employees are filled with happiness and joy.

The banquet was extremely noisy, but everyone was extremely happy.

The clerks at the Japanese restaurant were also affected by the emotions of these people, and they all sighed, "The employees of pokeni company are really lucky.

To be treated like this. "

"Yes, it's rare to see such a large-scale employee dinner gathering of any large company."

"Ah, I'm so envious. It would be great if I were also an employee of pokeni."

"What are you thinking about? I heard that pokeni has very high requirements for its employees. It seems that many of them they are recruiting are graduates from prestigious schools like Tokyo University."

"Really? Then there should be no hope for me in this life."

…

"Pokémon 3D World" sold out immediately, so the company also held a very grand celebration banquet for the Pokémon project team.

The entire project team even got a week-long vacation to travel and team-building, with all expenses paid by the company.

What stands out is that it's not bad for the money.

If you make money for your company, you should enjoy it.

…

After a while, the little HR walked out pushing a trolley.

There was a large 7-layer cake placed on the cart.

The cake was designed with great care.

The entire cake is designed according to the layering of the level map in Pokémon 3D:

The bottom layer is green, then there is sea water blue above, and desert yellow above...

And there are some small dolls placed on each floor.

They were made to look like some representative Pokémon of this level.

On the first level, there are fruit gnawing bugs, sweet bees, queen bees...

The second level is the Duck Duck, Chou Chou Fish...

On the top floor, in addition to the big boss Luciferus, there are also several protagonist Pokémon:

Pikachu, Charmander, Bulbasaur and Squirtle.

Basically they are shaped out of chocolate.

It is exquisite and compact, and full of endless creativity.

It was filled with candles, and a blessing card made of chocolate was placed in the middle:

[Congratulations on the great sales of Pokémon 3D World! 】

When she saw this cake, Lisa Asano burst into tears.

The whole person was moved beyond measure.

"Come on, Asano P, this is your home court." Qing Zhiyuan smiled and picked up the cutting knife from the table and handed it to Asano Lisa's hand.

During this process, there was a photographer specially invited by Akane Ayase to help record the video.

There are always some moments in life that will never be forgotten.

And now is an unforgettable moment in Lisa Asano's life.

Although the scene was dim, the candlelight on the cake was so bright, shining deeply into her heart.

Lisa Asano's eyes were red for a moment, and she didn't know what to say.

"um, I……"

As soon as she opened her mouth, Lisa Asano choked up.

Akane Ayase hugged the young girl's shoulders warmly.

Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "Asano, you are now one of the most famous producers in the world. The Pokémon is engraved with your name. Don't cry anymore."

"I...President, I am so moved that I can't bear it anymore."

Lisa Asano took a few deep breaths and finally calmed down a little.

Although they seem to have done a lot and encountered many difficulties along the way, for Lisa Asano and their team, as long as Qing Zhiyuan is there, there is no problem that cannot be solved.

So it seems that he has not experienced many setbacks.

It’s not even about the so-called joy after all the hardships are over.

From the very beginning, Pokémon was destined to be a world-class star product.

So Lisa Asano felt that her life was going quite smoothly, and the reason why she shed tears was really because she was moved.

Especially girls with delicate minds are particularly easily affected by the environment and atmosphere.

At such a moment, Lisa Asano's eyes instinctively turned red.

"Well, thank you for your support and companionship along the way. The success of this game project today is the result of everyone's concerted efforts.

More importantly, we want to thank the president.

Without the president, there would be no "Pokémon 3D World"! "

A bunch of people below followed her and shouted, "Thank you, President!"

"President, you are my god!"

"Hahahahaha..."

There was a burst of laughter.

…

"Yeah. Then, let's keep up our efforts. I hope the Pokémon series will get better and better, and the next game will achieve better results!"

Lisa Asano makes a new wish seriously.

Because the cake tower was too high, she couldn't blow out the candles on the top, so she could only blow them twice symbolically, and then took a knife and cut it in the middle.

“Awesome!”

The young HR who was watching were moved to tears and applauded them.

I hope that every game can hold a celebration party every year in the future.
