Super Game Empire

Because this meeting was attended by the Shanghai Municipal Government, Zhu Shuguang was present, but he left early before the meeting ended, followed by Yang Yun.

"Xiao Yang, I just said a few months ago that your thunder and rain are light, but look at you, this time the noise is too loud!" Zhu Shuguang said half-jokingly.

Yang Yun was a little nervous: "Mayor Zhu, will there be any objections from above?"

Zhu Shuguang laughed loudly: "How can you have no objection? The over-promotion of love stories in games is not good for children's physical and mental health. Games affect students' study time. Playing games makes people lose their morale. When have those people stopped making similar anti-slogans? But you Longteng

When did you ever care?"

Yang Yun breathed a sigh of relief: "Yes, what am I afraid of! We at Longteng are making games, and we have brought visible benefits to the country. Shouldn't we close down just because others say a few words? The cultural publishing industry has also been

Being criticized as a poisonous weed by others! We, Longteng, have walked through the shadows of swords and swords!"

Zhu Shuguang nodded and said meaningfully: "You are right to think so. It is impossible for China to return to the era of dictatorship in the past, so you only need to be consistent with the tone of the top leaders, and do more practical things, and in the end

It's better to keep a low profile and there will definitely be people who will support you."

Ruoyun's pointed reminder made Yang Yun wake up, and he said seriously: "Thank you, Mayor Zhu, for the reminder. I know what to do."

After returning to the capital, Yang Yun held an internal meeting and took the initiative to stop all promotional methods for Fairy Sword. It was almost the beginning of the school year, so it was better to deal with it coldly during this period.

However, Long Teng has no control over this issue due to public feedback, but the media industry must have received instructions from high-level officials and restrained themselves a lot.

But who cares? Longteng has already made a lot of money, and they have erected the golden sign of Fairy Sword. No matter how hard some people suppress it, millions of gamers will still spread the word by word of mouth, continue to accumulate reputation, and continue to sell well.

Go down.

In the conference room of Longteng headquarters, Yang Yun found a large cardboard box in front of Fang Huimin and asked curiously: "What are these?"

Fang Huimin replied: "We have not opened any of the personal letters written to you by readers. Will they be delivered to your office later?"

Yang Yun quickly waved his hand: "I'd rather help you open it and read it, and select a few meaningful readers. I'll write the reply myself, and forget about the rest. I'm too busy."

After Zhao Yongping, Zhang Guoqiang and others arrived, Yang Yun solemnly said: "I will leave it to you to finish the fairy sword matter. The second version will be released at least two years later. In the meantime, a special version will be released depending on the situation, which will have a hidden ending.

Two. In addition, Kuangzu Studio is reserved for me, and no one is allowed to resign. If they feel that they have no passion, then give them the adaptation of Jin Yong's novel."

Zhang Guoqiang agreed, and he is now in charge of the technical work of the Taipei R&D Center. His prestige is now quite high.

Next, Zhao Yongping reported on the development of Longteng game.

The handheld department currently has no good new game projects. It has been working on subsequent versions of Pokemon and Sonic. It is worth mentioning that the design of "Pokemon: North American Edition" has begun. Ash will travel and explore in North America, and in order to become

The strongest trainer and continue to fight.

The arcade department is in the final sprint. The four games "Metal Slug", "Samurai Shodown", "Three Kingdoms" and "Miracle Three-in-One" are all over 80% complete, and it seems that they can catch up with the Sega Carnival.

Video game consoles are booming. Even without Yang Yun's guidance, Longteng's own programmers have come up with two good ideas, not to mention the increasing number of other game manufacturers on the SS platform.

By the way, Kobayashi Yoma of Sumitomo Investment Group left Sega, and his 20% stake was only cashed out for US$300 million, which was the same market price at which Yang Yun purchased 51% of Sega's shares. In this way, Yang Yun controlled 71% of Sega.

share.

Kobayashi Yema officially retired. Before leaving, he thanked Yang Yun for everything he had done for Sega. Yang Yun also expressed his admiration for the old man. Everyone parted amicably and was very happy.

The card game Dragon Teng has not made any achievements. It only releases some expansion packs from time to time, releases Pokemon cards and other activities to rest on its laurels. Recently, I heard that the United States has launched a Magic card that is very popular. Yang Yun can only smile bitterly. Of course he has this set of cards.

I know, but it's a pity that it's too complicated and he doesn't understand it well enough, so there's no way he can make it first.

The last thing I want to talk about is PC games. Longteng’s independent studios include Distinctive and Bullfrog. There are three R&D centers involved in PC game production: Longteng’s French branch, Beijing headquarters, and Longteng Pharaoh Control in Japan.

The games that are available include the "God Is Crazy" series, the dos version of "Swordsman", the dos version of "Dragon Three Kingdoms", and several ordinary racing games.

Yang Yun said: "I have never been involved in PC games, mainly because the PC configuration is too poor and the DOS operating system is really disgusting. The available memory is 640k, and the operating system itself takes up 120k, leaving it for us to allocate to the game.

The memory is too little, so I have never designed a masterpiece on the PC.”

Zhang Guoqiang's eyes lit up: "You mean it can be done now?"

Yang Yun shook his head: "We still can't do it now. Unless the PC develops to a certain level, any masterpiece will be meaningless. The PC is different from our SS. There are too many things required in all aspects, which are simply beyond my control."

This is the truth. The most advanced technology Yang Yun has now is ATI's graphics card technology. What can limit the development of PCs is not only the graphics card, but actually the CPU.

Although the Intel Pentium 586 CPU was already available in 1993, it was not even half a year after it was launched on the market. The price was so high that it was impossible to spread it around the world in a short time.

Inoue Yanxiong also has a certain understanding of this, and said thoughtfully: "The most profitable thing on the market is not the first-class technology, the second-generation product is the most stable."

Yang Yun laughed: "What Lao Jing said makes sense! Do you have any good ideas?"

Inoue Yanxiong smiled slightly: "Mr. Yang must have the pearl of wisdom!"

"Hahahaha..." Everyone in the conference room laughed. It was rare to see this Japanese speak an idiom that even Chinese people rarely uttered without hiccups.

Yang Yun said: "Okay! Since everyone praises me for my wisdom, I won't give in. After finishing Fairy Sword, the name of the game I want to make is called "Warcraft". This game is different from any of our previous Dragon games.

They are all different. I require it to be developed on both SS and PC platforms at the same time!"

"Warcraft"? What type of game is this? What is Warcraft? Is it the same thing as the classic Xianxia?

No one had heard of this name, only Liu Cixing had a smile on his face. Of all the people present, he was the only one who knew Yang Yun's true purpose.

Yang Yun introduced: "We at Longteng have always made games on a single platform, such as Dune on the SS platform. You must have discovered that games like Dune should be more popular on the PC side because of the differences between the mouse and keyboard.

The operation will be more convenient.”

Everyone nodded, and Zhang Guoqiang said: "It's just that most PC hardware is too poor to run the Dune game."

"That's right!" Yang Yun sighed: "The price of a PC is ten times that of our SS, and it is definitely not as popular as ours, so when I designed Dune, I did not consider PCs."

The same goes for "Warcraft". Yang Yun didn't consider making it on PC at first. After all, he had to wait until Windows 95 came out to replace the unfortunate DOS system, and then he saw the hope of real-time strategy games.

But if "Warcraft" is not made now, Yang Yun is likely to lose it forever, because Blizzard started developing "Warcraft" in 1993. In 1994, they launched the first version "Warcraft: Orcs & Humans".

Moreover, it is a game under the DOS operating system, which makes Yang Yun very embarrassed.

Just follow it, it’s still dos now, and you can imagine what will be produced, it will definitely be terrible.

If not, what will he do about copyright issues in the future after being taken the lead by Blizzard? Will he go back to the old path of acquisition?

Yang Yun said: "But for "Warcraft", I have to prepare two hands, one for PC and one for SS, to be developed at the same time. In Europe and the United States, fantasy games are very popular, and there are many studios producing this type of game.

The game. Let’s ask Liu Cixing to introduce it to you!”

Everyone looked at Liu Cixing. For a long time, the leadership of this editorial department seemed to be on the edge of the core leadership of Soaring Dragon. Even a science fiction game like "Salomander: Dune 1993" only provided a map and

It’s just a general background of the world view. Even the weapons illustrations were not made by the editorial department. They were weapons authorized by 1c company from Russian and Ukrainian arsenals.

Liu Cixing was a little excited. After two or three years of silence, it was finally time for him to break out!

"Fantasy and magic games in Europe and the United States are basically similar to the world view of "The Lord of the Rings", which is recognized as the originator of modern fantasy literature, and most of them are RPG games based on DND rules!"

Liu Cixing spoke eloquently: "Mr. Yang asked me to study "The Lord of the Rings" two years ago. This book is very popular in European and American countries. Unfortunately, we can't find any information in China. We can only find ways to find the original version from Europe.

Reading. In the first half of this year, Mr. Yang told me that he wanted to make a World of Warcraft with races from the Lord of the Rings world, but with a new world view. Now I have a preliminary idea, and I will report it to you below." (Unfinished)
