How many people in this world can avoid Hayazawa Airi's deadly knife?

No one knows, including her parents.

Then, now we should count Zhu You Xing.

But Takeyuho himself didn't even know that Hayazawa Airi had this kind of instinct.

Because for a long time in the past, Hayazawa Airi did not show any violent tendencies in front of Takeyusei.

It's just that occasionally Takeyuho can find that Hayazawa Airi is a little stronger than ordinary women.

Because when he first took Hayazawa Airi to the park to promote the game console, Hayazawa Airi was able to move the big TV in the early years by himself.

At that time, Zhu Youxing thought that it was only because of the weight of the big head TV that women could bear it.

But in fact, ordinary women may not be able to move, even if they move, they can't keep their faces unchanged.

"Zhuyou-san, the principle of this light gun is the one you told me before. Our engineering development team has carried out three generations of product research and development before it roughly produced what you expected."

Hayazawa Airi enthusiastically explained the light gun to Takeyusei.

In front of Zhu Youxing, a TV and a red and white computer for engineering have been placed.

Compared with normal sales of retail household Famicom, engineering Famicom has a rougher appearance.

Because this will not be sold externally, and there is no need to consider the aesthetics of customers, no matter how convenient it is.

The entire motherboard is exposed, which is convenient for debugging and observation at any time.

Zhu Youxing is holding a light gun. The whole appearance of this gun looks like a future pistol from a sci-fi movie. At the end, there is a wire extending to the game console, and it is inserted into the socket where the game console should have been inserted into the handle.

"We finally made a product that can be used without changing the original internal hardware configuration of the game console. You can try it."

Hayazawa Airi watched Takeyuhoshi's movements expectantly.

At this time, a scene similar to a shooting range appeared on the TV screen.

This is a simulation program, and it cannot be regarded as a game, because it is too rough. This is just a simple test software made to test this light gun.

But even something like this can be very interesting.

The employees next to me are also eager to try it. If Zhu Youxing hadn't come, they are probably rushing to try it now.

This may be derived from some kind of primitive fighting instinct of human beings.

Since hot weapons came into the world, both adults and children seem to have dreams of guns in their hearts.

You don't need to actually own it.

Even the indirect contact excites many children and adults alike.

In parks and in streets and alleys, many children will play jungle shooting games with their companions with simulated fake guns, imitating the battle scenes of adults.

It is conceivable that if this brand-new shooting entertainment method is presented to everyone, it should be welcomed.

In the history of light guns in the previous life, Nintendo has roughly three generations of light guns.

The first generation is the era of red and white machines in the early days. The functions are relatively weak and the response is very slow. It can only be said that the experience is a novelty.

Then the second generation is the era of game consoles such as Super Nintendo after being optimized, and then the third generation of modern light guns.

With the functions of the Famicom and the original hardware technology, at most the second-generation light gun can only be developed in advance for use.

By the time of the third generation of light guns, the game console itself needs to be equipped with corresponding hardware.

In order to save costs, Zhuyouxing's red and white machines did not install this kind of hardware.

The latter machine cannot be added directly, otherwise it will be unfair to the players who bought the game machine before.

New game consoles in the future can be made into it.

The second-generation light gun itself is roughly an optimized version of the first generation.

The principle is that the light gun pulls the trigger, then transmits the signal to the game console, and the game console sends an instruction to the TV to flash a white screen for a few tenths of a second, so that the light gun can capture the white light coordinates on the screen, and finally determine the hit of the light gun Location.

Early light guns were designed to catch TV signals, not emit them.

If explained in terms of principle, the light gun should not fire bullets, but should recover bullets.

Of course, the real display is the normal launch screen.

Zhu Youxing pointed the light gun at several targets on the screen and pulled the trigger continuously. The targets were all hit accurately. It was not difficult, but the delay was really touching for Zhu Youxing.

This delay is estimated to be in the hundreds of milliseconds.

You must know that the response time of some high-quality displays in later generations is a one-millisecond response gimmick.

Human beings can gradually perceive it in about one hundred milliseconds.

However, games like Light Gun are actually more sensitive to the perception of milliseconds, so they cannot be compared.

However, this is also the limit of what can be produced now. It is estimated that the delay will be reduced to an unperceivable level of about 20 milliseconds when it develops to the third generation.

Of course, this kind of delay is a bit uncomfortable for Zhu Youxing, but it is not so difficult for people in this world who have never experienced the light gun.

"How about Takeyou-san?" Hayazawa Airi looked at Takeyousei expectantly.

"Very good, how much does this thing cost?"

Zhu Youxing smiled and gave an approved reply.

Hayazawa Airi replied happily: "The cost is no more than 1,500 yen, including hardware cost and packaging cost. As for the game body, it may need to be done better. The current test software is not very good-looking. "

Is it 1,500 yen including the packaging cost? Then there should be sales within 8,000 yen with the game bundled sale.

Zhu Youxing nodded: "Okay, then report the design technology of this thing to our legal department, let them register the patent, and then contact the production factory to start a small-scale promotion. First, promote this thing in some entertainment halls."

Zhu Youxing remembers that light guns appeared most often in entertainment halls, but they were relatively rare at home. It was not until they entered the North American market that the situation was completely opened up, and it was out of control.

It seems that in the previous life, a duck-shooting game released following the first generation of light guns sold more than 20 million copies.

Much of it seems to be contributed by North America and Europe.

The people there are generally tough, and they don't have much national history. They prefer modern thermal weapons to enhance their national self-confidence.

"By the way, since the light gun has been successfully produced, each of you will receive a bonus to reward your hard work during this time."

The employees present couldn't hide the joy in their hearts.

Since they came to Youxing Electronic Entertainment, the relaxed atmosphere and the fun-filled research environment have given them a new sense of fun in work.

In the past, the companies they worked for were either stagnant or introverted. They all worked overtime to optimize the original product research and then claim credit. Few people would innovate because That was too difficult, and the gain outweighed the loss.

On the contrary, here, they come into contact with a lot of new things, moreover, the salary given by the boss is quite generous, and they work harder.

Is there anything better than a job that lets your imagination run wild and pays you well?

I'm afraid it will be hard to find.
