"If you were in Raccoon City and faced with the increasing number of mutated zombies and the increasingly deteriorating living environment, how would you react? The friend who shared the same suffering yesterday showed his fangs to you today, and the neighbor's cute and cute neighbor the day before yesterday

The little boy who is a strong survivor, and his father stretched out his mutated arms to you today and walked crookedly. How would you respond? Write the story in your heart. In the era of "Resident Evil", you can personally

create!"

Long Teng's essay advertisements were published in many newspapers and media, and they chose the comprehensive category, which publishes serial articles every day. They believe that the experts are among the people, and brainstorming is the fastest way. This is also to maintain close contact with the people.

the best means.

In other words, this is also a good way to exchange a small amount of money for a higher reputation, especially for literati!

"Popular Software" is in charge of the essay solicitation in Asia, and "Game Pass" is in charge of the review in Europe and the United States. The two magazines will jointly review and set up a special prize. Longteng will purchase the copyright of the article at a high price, and invite the author to write for the Longteng game "Resident Evil"

》script writer, enjoys a high salary and participates in the setting of subsequent versions.

There are also 10 first prize winners and 50 second prize winners. As long as some of the ideas they submit are favored by Long Teng, they will also receive expensive purchase contracts, or directly receive high essay bonuses.

Creation is a very subjective matter. A person with different identities, statuses, and professions will look at the same thing from completely different angles. This is what Longteng needs.

There are so many people responding, on the one hand because of the high bonuses, and on the other hand. Join Longteng and participate in the "Resident Evil" game. This is an exciting thing. Longteng's products must be high-quality, and they are also creating

history.

The Nebula Award Organizing Committee of the most authoritative science fiction association in North America, the Hugo Award Selection Organizing Committee of the World Science Fiction Association, and the Galaxy Award Magazine of China's "Science Fiction World" and other world-renowned science fiction review groups have issued initiatives and responses respectively, and have taken turns to recommend for Longteng Company.

It can be said that "Resident Evil" has set off a new wave of post-apocalyptic writing craze, if not for other reasons. The essay solicitation will improve the entire science fiction environment, and it will be a win-win situation for both parties.

But Yang Yun couldn't help but laugh when he saw the Galaxy Award listed on the list of "World Famous Science Fiction Units". Of course he knew who was in charge of this matter. In fact, he also very much agreed with it in his heart. He secretly

Li has always hoped that Chinese science fiction could go global and produce many well-known world-class science fiction writers.

At the same time, this is indeed a bit of Liu Cixing's selfishness. He has always wanted to find opportunities to promote the backward Chinese science fiction industry. Many of the science fiction scripts he created in Longteng were published in supplements of "Science Fiction World". He went abroad as a visiting scholar.

When communicating with colleagues in the world's science fiction circles, he never forgets to bring up his hometown's science fiction magazine.

The development of Chinese science fiction has a long way to go!

In the global promotion of the "Resident Evil" movie, the literary attack comes first and the physical combat comes later.

The last month's publicity campaign for "Resident Evil" was piled up with real money. The film production cost more than 80 million U.S. dollars, and the publicity fee was 20 million. This is still based on the huge reputation of Longteng Entertainment Game Company and its global reputation.

Under the premise of the support of tens of millions of Longteng game fans. Otherwise, the promotion fee of 30 to 50 million yuan will not be heard at all.

On June 20, the movie "Resident Evil" was released. Tickets for the premiere in various theaters were sold out within 5 minutes.

Phenomenal games and movies appear again!

…

…

There are four people sitting in a private room at the Imperial Theater in Tokyo, Japan. Ken Kutaragi of Sony, Hiroshi Yamauchi of Nintendo, Kono Nakata of Namco, and Masashi Miyamoto of Square Enix, with indifferent expressions.

, with some pessimism, everyone was thinking deeply, and no one spoke for a long time.

They are watching the Japanese version of the "Resident Evil" movie. They are watching Sophie Marceau running on the big screen, holding a gun or showing her good knife skills, knocking out the swaying zombie actors one by one.

On the ground, watching one big star after another appear on stage, they made quick calculations in their hearts.

In fact, just by seeing the actors who starred in them, they can roughly know the cost of filming the movie and how much Long Teng spent.

The time difference in North America is 11 hours ahead of Japan. "Resident Evil" not only completed its premiere, but the box office on the first day in North America has already accounted for 70-80% of the theaters. This has not been verified, but it seems very credible,*

*Bulishi’s big data also spread to the ears of people in Japan in the first time.

On the first day in North America, the box office of the "Resident Evil" movie should not surprisingly exceed 10 million US dollars. Although it is far less than "The Expendables 2", as a zombie science fiction movie, and there is a big difference between a game and a movie video,

It is very likely to impact the fragile and sensitive hearts of players.

It is very rare to achieve such a result, so after they heard the news, the expressions on everyone's faces were strange, surprised, envious, jealous, puzzled, and inexplicable.

"I didn't expect that the "Resident Evil" movie and the game have nothing to do with each other in terms of content..." Kono Nakata shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Where did they get such courage? Could it be that

Aren’t they afraid of players’ protests? At least 80% of the content is different. I just want to ask, with such changes, is it really a movie adapted from a game?”

Ken Kutaragi revealed the secret: "This is because Longteng has passed the era of content first, and they have now begun to build a brand. "Resident Evil" has many commercial elements. Although the plot is not great, it is not bad either.

To the point where I can’t stand it anymore. Maybe in the near future, even if they release a bad movie, thousands of people will buy it because they have the largest number of fans.”

The population base is indeed important, and this concept is highly respected in real-time strategy games.

Everyone was silent. On the screen, Sophie Marceau was immersed in the flooded laboratory, and her pajamas turned into wet underwear. If you look carefully, she was not wearing underwear, which made many people irritated.

They all produce some special desires, and when she is running or fighting, any intense movements will make her chest become more undulating and majestic. The visual effect is indeed superb.

"You're vulgar!" Hiroshi Yamauchi closed his eyes and looked dismissive.

It's a pity that no one responded to this sentence. The other three people were secretly thinking that if they could, they would be willing to do something so vulgar. At least they would have the confidence to say anything else after making money.

However, the key point is that even if they want to be vulgar, they cannot be vulgar!

"Hey..." Miyamoto Masashi is the most depressed person. He came here today with a special purpose. But as soon as he finished speaking, he was taken to the cinema to watch the new movie of Longteng. He

What he is most afraid of hearing now is the word Longteng, which makes him the most helpless and helpless.

Kutaragi Ken also sighed heavily. He was really helpless against Miyamoto Masashi's request. He asked: "President Miyamoto, why have Square Enix and Long Teng cooperated for so many years and even invested in shares? Why don't you

You are willing to sell your company to Longteng, but you come to us instead?"

This is Masashi Miyamoto's request. Square Enix is ​​preparing to sell the entire package. Masashi Miyamoto is here specifically to sell shares. On behalf of the board of directors, he wants to come and test these big guys in the Japanese game industry, hoping that they can take over Square Enix.

Yes, of course, I also have plans and plans to shop around.

Miyamoto Masashi couldn't tell the story of his suffering. He didn't dare to say that it was because Square had suffered too much investment in the "Final Fantasy" movie and was trapped in an endless cycle of additional investments. Investors were impatient. They couldn't see Square's

In the future, they won't be able to get enough returns. They want to retreat and sell all this mess!

"Dear presidents, Square is a pure-blooded Japanese game production company, Namco is, Nintendo is, and Sony is too. Although Longteng has cooperated with us for many years, Sega has essentially become a Chinese company. Square

The board of directors asked us to give priority to selling to local Japanese companies."

Miyamoto Masashi could only give such a far-fetched explanation. His answer was perfunctory and had many flaws. It was okay to coax a layman, but if he wanted to deceive an expert, the other three would not believe it at all.

"Dependent on the Sega game platform, Square's performance is getting better year by year, which is obvious to all. However, if any of us takes over, the leading game "Final Fantasy" will have to face the fate of adapting to the game platform.

To be fair, can we continue to maintain the glory of Final Fantasy these years? President Miyamoto, you are standing and talking without pain in your back!"

Nakata Kono bluntly criticized Miyamoto Masashi's cleverness. He would never be easily persuaded to drill holes. In his opinion, Miyamoto Masashi's quotation was completely unreasonable and not a sincere attempt to seek help.

Hiroshi Yamauchi had no time to listen to these trivial matters and asked directly: "Miyamoto, tell us your bottom line, and we will decide whether to film it!"

Miyamoto Masashi was a little embarrassed: Square Enix offered to sell the entire business for US$100 million, which included 51% ownership of all the company's games, as well as 100% of all interests in animation, game peripherals, movies and other businesses.

After Kutaragi Ken heard this, his first reaction was: "This price is really too high. Under normal circumstances, who would be rich enough to pay back the price for whatever they want to buy? Buying Square is a way to compete with Square Enix.

Longteng Company is declaring war head-on, and you know how the media’s butts have become distorted these days. In this world, if you can’t be enemies with Longteng, then it’s best not to anger them!” (To be continued)
