Super Game Empire

Amid everyone's expectations, Yang Yun announced his chosen candidates: "General Zhao is in charge of domestic affairs, and President Okawa is in charge of Japan. You two report directly to me, and you can mobilize any resources in the company."

It makes no sense for everyone to have Zhao Yongping in charge domestically, but the person in charge in Japan is not Wang Zhe, Nakayama Hayao, or Miyazaki Hayao, but actually Okawa Nanase?

"Ah?" In everyone's surprise, Okawa Nanase's face turned red and she covered her mouth in surprise. How could she be chosen?

Even she herself did not expect that even when the two were at their happiest moment, Yang Yun did not reveal the slightest bit of news. The sudden appointment at this time was really a huge surprise.

This was the greatest affirmation for her. Yang Yun was expressing his affirmation, trust, and concern for her in his own way, so happiness filled her heart instantly.

Seeing Okawa Nanase Kasumi's cheeks and Yang Yun's calm look, some sensitive people immediately remembered the gossip in the company. It was said that Miss Okawa was 30 years old but had not yet fallen in love, so she refused.

The pursuit of many talented male cartoonists in Japan is because she, like countless teenage girls, has a crush on their boss.

Several Japanese subordinates in the conference room looked at the calm-looking Yang Yun, but they soon felt relieved. People like Nakayama Hayao, Miyazaki, and others are all old men in their 60s. Who is interested in taking care of such things?

They even hope that these rumors are true. It would be a good thing for Okawa Nanase to follow the boss. Some even think that if there is a junior in their family who is waiting for a maiden, they are willing to introduce them to Yang Yun. This is inconsistent with the superiority of men over women.

The Japanese customs and ideas are very consistent.

"If you have any objections, please contact me privately after the meeting. Let's continue talking about DC games."

Yang Yun skillfully ignored the matter, without even glancing at the embarrassed Okawa Nanase, and continued in a business-like manner: "This year's DC platform games will include more than just these four comic book adaptations. We have to strike while the iron is hot. Let's capture it in one go.

Global 128-bit game market. Team leader last month, I heard that your Konami team has two new game proposals?"

Kagemasa Shangzuki, who was named, almost didn't react. He was stunned for two seconds before saying: "Yes! At the beginning of December, we compiled two game planning plans. One was Konami's signature game "Demons"

Castle: Symphony of the Night", and the other is Hideo Kojima's work "Metal Gear Solid" which returned last month."

These are two excellent video games. Yang Yun is very aware of them, so after his subordinate reported the names of these two games, he became interested.

"Castlevania" was a top-notch game on the Nintendo FC back then. In real history, it was a game included in the classic Konami 4-in-1. With the popularity of pirated FC game consoles, it was deeply loved by Chinese players.

However, due to the emergence of Dragon Soar, "Castlevania" and "Contra" are both called Konami's two heroes, and they are inseparable from Dragon Soar's "Saraman Snake" and "Suicide Squad 1" (i.e. "Red Fortress").

The dual impact of time and copyright turned the top four into a 2VS2 situation.

But later "Contra" was traded to Sega, and Konami was acquired by Longteng. He fell from the president to the head of the game development team. Last month, Jingzheng was depressed for a long time, and he only slowed down after 1995.

I slowly changed my mentality and now actively look for excellent game projects. "Castlevania", which has been dormant for several years, is finally going to shine on DC Games.

And "Metal Gear Solid" is even more extraordinary. It is the world's first 3D modern warfare espionage stealth game. It is different from the medieval background stealth game of Dragon's "Thief", and it is also different from "The Expendables 2".

Different from the team mode of infiltrating a Colombian drug/lord base to complete missions, "Metal Gear Solid" created a new series and sold more than 7 million copies.

How could Yang Yun let go of these two games so easily? What's more, 3D games are originally Longteng's advantage projects. The three-dimensional series engine technology has been commercialized. 3D games such as "Tomb Raider", "Thief" and "Resident Evil"

The accumulation of technology makes "Metal Gear Solid" have no technical problems at all.

"Team leader last month, I will leave you in charge of "Castlevania: Moonlight Rhapsody". For the "Metal Gear Solid" game plan, I want Hideo Kojima to go to the Longteng headquarters in Beijing, China to participate in the production. I will personally take charge of it.

Half a year should be enough for this project."

Yang Yun remained calm, with an order that could not be refused in his tone. He was the boss, and there were some things that he did not need to discuss with his subordinates.

Last month Jingzheng had a strange expression. He hesitated for a while and said awkwardly: "Xiaojiao-kun's situation is a bit special. I can't make the decision for him. If you have already decided, you can ask him personally about his wishes."

"What special situation does he have?" Yang Yun was surprised. Kojima Hideo's famous work is the "Metal Gear Solid" series. If he is asked to work at the Longteng headquarters, he will not be paid or subsidized. What problems will there be?

Shang Yue Jingzheng opened his mouth and closed it again. It was obvious that he didn't want to explain, so he probably had something to hide.

What a shrewd person Nakayama Hayao is. He knows everything about the situation of Longteng's Japanese branch. He knows the ins and outs of many things. He knows that it is not convenient for Jingzheng to talk about it because the matter also involves the original Konami.

He couldn't bear the past, so he took the words, leaned close to Yang Yun, and explained in a low voice.

"Hideo Kojima made the first "Metal Gear Solid" 10 years ago, but it was released on Konami's MSX2 gaming computer platform. "Metal Gear Solid 2" was launched in 1990, but it was a pity that it was snatched away by our MD platform.

Get rid of most of the limelight and travel

The sales of the game were very low, which was a huge blow to him. Konami was severely suppressed by us in the next few years. Hideo Kojima's talent was not brought into play, and he was ridiculed as a "genius with broken wings".

Within a few years, he resigned in anger."

Yang Yun asked in a low voice in confusion: "When did he resign? Why don't I know? Don't we at Longteng have a set of process specifications for independent reporting of outstanding projects? This kind of talent should be valued more highly, and there should not be any talentless people."

Such a mistake! How could you agree to his resignation?"

"During the time when we acquired Konami, most of the employees stayed, but many employees took the opportunity to leave, most of them going to Nintendo and other peer companies. If Hideo Kojima stayed and joined us, we would be better off with our Dragon Sega

With his perfect game development model, scientific and reasonable planning arrangements, rich experience, and high-end platform, he will definitely use his talents to develop the sequel to "Metal Gear Solid" as early as the SS platform."

Nakayama Hayao introduced it with some regret. After listening to the explanation, Yang Yun suddenly realized.

"He's back from Nintendo now?"

"Yes, Nintendo declared bankruptcy last month, and many employees left early. Some were recruited by us, while others were acquired by Sony and Microsoft. Hideo Kojima had no choice but to come back to us. He wanted to continue developing "Metal"

Equipment" series, the 128-bit DC console is his best choice."

Yang Yun was speechless. Many coincidences made this game planner known as a genius run into obstacles and his fate was bumpy.

In 1990, Longteng took advantage of the fire and acquired Sega. At that time, Nintendo was still the world's dominant game player. Although the development of SFC was very slow, it was not inferior to MD. For the time being, Nintendo's declining trend could not be seen.

At that time, Hideo Kojima probably started thinking about developing the SFC version because of the failure of "Metal Gear Solid 2". He spent several years at Konami. Unfortunately, Nintendo kept delaying the development of the SFC console.

By the time Longteng launched the SS console, Nintendo's technology lagged behind by a whole generation, and Hideo Kojima's dream was shattered again.

Konami is a die-hard supporter of the Nintendo camp. It has always been at odds with Longteng. In the end, it went bankrupt, and Nintendo failed to survive. After the bankruptcy, the staff was divided. Hideo Kojima was on the wrong team for the third time and chose to follow Nintendo because the N64 plan was unreasonable.

It seems more attractive, but unfortunately Nintendo's slogan is so loud, but the performance of N64 is not satisfactory, "Metal Gear Solid".

Well now, seven years have passed since 1990. Hideo Kojima has changed from a young man in his twenties to a middle-aged man in his early 30s. Presumably, his energy back then has been smoothed away.

Qing is very likely to be gone. Can he really make the masterpiece "Metal Gear Solid" just like in real history?

Moreover, Konami defected when it went bankrupt, Nintendo defected again when it went bankrupt, and bounced between several companies. How much time did it take to really concentrate on technical research? How reliable is such a person? Yang

Yun placed a big question mark on Kojima Hideo's character and ability, which further strengthened his idea of ​​taking game planning into his own hands.

"After the meeting, let Hideo Kojima come to see me and I will talk to him personally."

Seeing that nothing happened, Yang Yun announced the adjournment of the meeting.

Yang Yun once liked the "Metal Gear Solid" series of games very much. He highly praised and admired the talent of Hideo Kojima. The background stories of the entire series are interconnected and complementary. The plots are twists and turns, thrilling, and the game playability is quite high.

He remembered that just before his rebirth, in the first half of 2013, Konami launched the latest version of "Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance". In the official promotional animation of 7 minutes and 05 seconds, Uncle Snake was extremely handsome holding his long knife.

Use police cymbals and combat mechas to hit dozens of combos and cut them into pieces. The bloody scenes, super cool movements, and thrilling battle scenes are a visual feast!

Why not take this game into your own hands?

If Uncle Snake's face was adjusted to look like a Chinese, ahem...
