Tokyo Video Game Tycoon

If you want to open up the market in the United States, Street Fighter will really have a miraculous effect.

But in the United States, the audience of gun car ball is obviously larger.

So in addition to Street Fighter, Zhuyouxing also arranged for members of two or three groups to enter different game development after the development of the next game.

Among them, gun games can be put aside for the time being, and we can wait until the 3D graphics engine is truly mature and our own 32-bit game console is released.

Cars and balls can be arranged first.

The first Zero Formula was very good.

You can make a new modern-style racing game directly from the underlying code of this game, and reuse those repeated racing program codes, which can save a lot of work, which is almost equivalent to the prototype of a game engine , saving repetitive work and time in game development.

If possible, by the way, try to find some well-known car companies to authorize. On the one hand, your own game can help promote the car brand, and on the other hand, your own racing game can highlight the sense of reality.

Zhu Youxing also directly handed over this matter to Matsuhashi, so that she can help her complete some game development tasks after going to the United States.

As for the ball, Zhu Youxing hardly hesitated, and was ready to play the game of street basketball.

In the arcade field in the previous life, street basketball was not only popular in the United States, but also in China.

Because at that time, there happened to be a basketball boom in China, and the post-90s and post-80s were the main audience.

If any arcade hall does not have the game of street basketball, the traffic flow will inevitably decrease by about 10%.

In the United States, basketball is almost equal to the national game, second only to American football, which is rugby.

And the NBA is a hot spot in ratings all year round. It may not be comparable to the Super Bowl football game, but it is also dominating one side.

If there is a chance in the future, Zhu Youxing will definitely play a rugby game.

The release of rugby games and basketball games in the United States is the same as the release of baseball games in Japan. They are all games that can lie down and make money.

After all the subsequent work has been arranged, the employees began to enter into the intensive work.

The work arranged by Zhu Youxing this time is quite intense, and they can clearly see that the president attaches great importance to entering the US market.

And now they all have a certain sense of belonging in the company, and they will naturally have plans to make a fortune in the US market.

So I work even harder at work.

However, this kind of hard work does not feel very tiring, on the contrary, it also feels very fulfilling, and it seems that life is full of expectations.

During this process, Minoru Matsuhashi finally packed his bags and boarded the plane to the United States, accompanied by two assistants that Minoru Matsuhashi had recruited before.

The next priority for them in the United States is to prepare for the various procedures for starting a company, and to recruit more competent programmers locally.

What makes Zhu Youxing a little regretful is that this is a parallel world.

Otherwise, he can directly recruit a group of big programmers from the United States through the names of people he was familiar with in his previous life.

John Carmack, Richard Strahman, whatever.

Now, I can only look at Matsuhashi Minoru.

On the Japanese side, the fourth game development team has entered the development stage of Street Fighter.

The first is the various character portraits of Street Fighter.

Now that the company has a full-time royal painter, Zhu Youxing directly called three or four of them together to draw various standing paintings of Street Fighter.

And Zhuyouxing's requirement is to be as westernized as possible, and European and American fighters should account for more than half of the number.

At the same time, some classic characters, such as Chun Li, Long and other characters Zhu Youxing directly specify the image, while others can be drawn by the artists with their own imagination, without deliberately pushing towards the original image of Street Fighter.

Then, Zhu Youxing started to ask a full-time composer to compose the background music of Street Fighter, and he was busy for a whole month.

Other employees basically complete their work on time and on time and then leave work at a fixed time. In Zhu Youxing’s company, he does not recommend overtime culture. In terms of cultural creativity, it is still necessary to give employees enough rest time. When they are inspired, they can start working with more energy the next day.

But Zhu Youxing himself lived in the company directly.

During the day, he tracked the work progress with the person in charge of each company group.

In the evening, he continued to arrange the work for the next day, often working until late at night.

Anyway, it is his own company, and he works hard to strengthen himself.

If he had worked for someone else, he probably would have quit long ago.

After such a busy month, the second and third game development teams released a Bomberman game and a new girl dress-up game for girls with faces. Zhu Youxing plans to make this classification in the future, and now I feel that maybe It hasn't improved much yet, but Zhuyouxing is always reluctant to give up the female player group easily.

Sometimes they will be more generous if they are willing to spend money, but they just lack an opportunity to make them completely attracted to video games, just wait slowly.

After the second and third development teams finished the research and development work at hand, they also entered into the plan arranged by Zhuyouxing.

Among them, the second team is in charge of realistic racing games, which is directly named: Need for Speed.

Although the first generation of Need for Speed ​​was actually released after the appearance of 3D games, but now SFC can also achieve a similar picture, but it is still a little bit bad, but that doesn't matter anymore, anyway, people in this world He didn't know Need for Speed ​​at all, so he took advantage of his name first.

As for the issue of car brand authorization, the actual talks in Songqiao in the United States were not going well.

People in the United States don't know Japanese video games at all, and they can't accept free authorization. Later, Zhu Youxing said that if you pay for authorization, you can also negotiate.

It’s just that the lions of the American car factory opened their mouths. The car brand authorization needs at least 5 million US dollars to start. They also need to make it public to attract other similar game manufacturers to bid together. In the end, the highest bidder wins.

At the same time, write down all these arrogant American automakers in a small notebook. Although this kind of thing will not lead to retaliation later, if you want to discuss authorization cooperation with him in the future, they will beg him. He has to Take a good breath.

Compared with the United States, Japan's car factory negotiations are obviously much smoother. Perhaps it has something to do with the fact that Youxing Electronic Entertainment is becoming more and more popular among the crowd. They can also see that video games are also a good publicity channel, and they can promote them for free. Car brands are more than happy to agree.

A total of three Japanese car manufacturers were discussed, and they are also the three largest original car companies in this parallel world.
