Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 88 88. The gathering of princes

As soon as the report of "Golotong" came out, "Mermaid Heart" and pokeni were directly promoted to the altar of galgame.

Not only did it boost its own magazine sales, it also boosted pokeni’s fame.

Countless players who have read the Guoletong journal have said:

"Huh? Although I already had similar feelings when playing the game, I didn't think about it at the time. It turns out that "Mermaid Heart" also talks about very profound social issues.

The editor of the magazine Guoletong is good and can interpret it from different angles. "

"Before, I looked at the game from the player's perspective. After being analyzed like this by Guo Letong, I finally understood the good intentions of the creator of "Mermaid Heart"."

"Mermaid Heart is really a good game. As expected, it was made by Chunqiu Furuhara, whom I like. It is different from the galgames on the market. In addition to beautiful love, it can also tell about human nature and profound truths.

ah! I like Gu Yuan Chunqiu more and more. "

"Furuhara Chunqiu's partnership with Urobuchi Xuan is really unexpected and magical. The script is indeed a god-level script, and the connotation of the story is also so profound. The only bad thing is——

These two guys always like to make players cry.

Wow, oh, oh, when I think about not having a happy ending, I feel so much pain in my heart right now. "

"Pokeni is so damned, it has single-handedly changed the entire galgame market. We all liked Lanyou before, but pokeni's games have changed the taste of galgame."

"Now that there is no good plot, I don't want to play galgame anymore."

After the magazine came out, many female players also expressed their desire to try this galgame, which is called [girls can also play].

…

In addition, Guo Letong also mentioned a secret message.

That is--

pokeni Co., Ltd. is producing a Western fantasy-themed action RPG. It is unknown whether it will be a galgame, but judging from the released news, this game is definitely worth looking forward to.

The players were confused.

"Is it true? Is pokeni's new game an ARPG? But can this thing really be turned into a galgame?"

"Whether it will be a galgame or not is still up for debate, but if it can really be made into a galgame, I will definitely buy it. An ARPG galgame is very exciting just thinking about it."

"Well, this is the pokeni in my mind. It's really amazing to be able to tap into galgame's abilities from different game fields and different game types."

"I hope the producer of this game is [Furuhara Chunqiu], but it must not be that Qing Zhiyuan. Qing Zhiyuan is simply rubbish compared to Furuhara Chunqiu."

"..."

Although players still can't imagine what a Western fantasy-themed ARPG would look like if it were made into a galgame.

But it’s true that everyone has high expectations for it.

…

"Well, Guo Letong's report was well written." Qing Zhiyuan closed the magazine and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

Akane Ayase took a glance and saw that the president was really full of emotions.

You can tell what you are thinking by looking at your face.

The look on his face totally gave him away, okay?

If the president plays Texas Hold'em poker, he will definitely lose miserably.

Qing Zhiyuan sat on the boss's chair, tapping the table with his fingers, thinking about something intently.

Although Guoletong has gained a lot of users, it is not enough. It would be great if it could grow stronger. In the future, it would be equivalent to pokeni having one more promotion channel.

Before the game is released, do some exposure in magazines or TV, which is called warm-up. This process is actually quite important.

Take "Diablo" as an example. Although it is still under development, after some renderings by Goletong, players' curiosity has aroused.

If it is released at that time, it will increase the popularity.

The same goes for Pokémon.

Even in Qing Zhiyuan’s view, Pokémon must be promoted more vigorously. The animation of Pokémon in the previous life was indispensable.

Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but frown when he thought of Pokémon.

It has been several days now, and there is still no news from Sega.

Either the proposal is not accepted, or it is still hesitating.

We have to find a way to push Nakayama Hayao.

"President."

At this moment, Akane Ayase suddenly shouted.

"What's wrong?"

"It's Sega's phone number." Akane Ayase said.

"Eh?!"

…

Said Cao Cao Cao Cao has arrived.

After several days of discussion at a decision-making meeting, Sega finally decided to cooperate with pokeni.

In fact, we mainly cooperate with Sony.

This proposal itself hit Sega's weakness. At the same time, Qing Zhiyuan's theory of the Three Kingdoms impressed Nakayama Hayao.

Sega has always made many mistakes, the biggest one of which is——

They always thought they had the ability to challenge Rentian, and even because of MD's sales, they were so confident.

However, SFC has been gaining momentum recently, coupled with Hiroshi Yamauchi's arrogant appearance and Rentendo's various "Welcome to challenge" arguments, it really makes Hayao Nakayama feel extremely unhappy.

So after weighing the pros and cons, Sega accepted pokeni's proposal.

After signing the additional contract, Qing Zhiyuan soon brought several parties together and held a discussion meeting.

pokeni does not have such a large conference room, so the main venue is at Sega.

Hayao Nakayama of Sega, Chigen Ao, the president of Pokeni, and Nao Tsuda, the president of DUN, all attended the meeting. Akio Morita from Sony was not in good health, so Norio Ohga attended on his behalf.

Several people from each company were present. In addition to the main signatories, there were also heads of R\u0026D departments, as well as operations staff and lawyers...

A conference room was filled with more than a dozen people.

Business negotiations and the process of finalizing the details are really troublesome and time-consuming.

Every inch is money, and every inch of land must be fought for, so everyone strives to maximize the interests of several parties at the meeting.

After talking about it for about a month, it was finally finalized.

In the consensus cooperation, Sega fought for the dominance of research and development, and the main expenses for the development of handheld consoles were borne by Sega.

(Sega is very persistent in its dominance, but Qing Zhiyuan himself does not want to get involved in the so-called console war at this stage, and DUN does not want to invest as much as 10 billion, so everyone has no objection to Sega as the main investor.)

Naturally, this generation of handheld console is tentatively named [Sega Game Pocket], which translates to [Sega Pocket Game Console], or GP for short.

It sounds much better than GG.

In this way, the investment pressure on pokeni and DUN will naturally be reduced a lot.

The battery part of the handheld device will be completed by Sony.

pokeni games will be exclusive to handheld consoles for a limited time

…

Then the intellectual property rights of the handheld console are shared by all four parties.

Although it is shared by four parties, no one is allowed to use it to develop game consoles that are compatible with GP.

(This is based on lessons learned from the previous Rentendao, and it also prevents Sony or Sega from getting rid of others at any time)

The revenue from the sale of game consoles and royalties will be divided according to the proportion of investment and the proportion of technology.

Game review rights will be solely handled by Sega.

However, future games developed by partners (pokeni, DUN and Sony) will be developed and sold on GP and enjoy royalty discounts.

Etc., etc……

There are many clauses, almost a hundred pages long, stipulating the investment proportions of each party and their respective rights and interests.

At the same time, the consensus part also provides more convenient and preferential conditions for third-party game developers.

For games sold on the Sega handheld console, the royalties paid will be 10% less than what Rentendo charges.

All these kinds of things.

…

In a word, after the signing of this contract, it will be equivalent to the gathering of eighteen princes.

Just waiting to attack Dong Zhuo.
