Chapter 250 The Horse Steps Into Dongjin! Ginza Hangs the Flag!
Crack, crack, crack...
clatter——
The sound of the cold soda being turned on sounded in the living room.
In the bathroom, the sound of gurgling shower water could also be faintly heard.
Shen Miaomiao poured two cans of ice water in one breath, put the iced soda water in her hands on her hot little face, then went to the window and opened it, letting the late autumn wind cool her down.
In the bathroom, the cold water flowed violently, rushing down from the top of Gu Sheng's head, extinguishing the blazing and steaming flames in his body.
Obviously it is late autumn and early winter.
But the two of them acted as if the temperature was alarming, one was air-cooled and the other was water-cooled to cool themselves down.
In the night of late autumn, the souls of two people who almost missed each other gradually cooled down.
You should know.
Energy is conserved.
Since the fiery impulse was not released in the sassy autumn night, Ke Meila had to bear the inflated passion that had nowhere to rest.
the next day!
The Golden Wind was announced for the first time in history, and it started vigorously!
China.
On the Binjiang Science and Technology Building, a huge "SEKIRO" banner unfolds at the highest point of the landmark CBD.
Outside the Shenzhou Xunteng Game Building, a huge concept poster hanging down is tens of meters long and extremely eye-catching.
In front of Zhongjing Yiyou Headquarters Building, the road flags of Yiyou x2 and "Sekiro" danced one after another, making the eyes dazzled.
And besides that.
People come and go in the Dongdaemun business district in Seoul. The Golden Wind LOGO on the left side of the entrance and the Sekiro poster on the right side echo each other.
There are many tourists on the Smart Tram in Kuala Lumpur, and the promotional video of Sekiro is played on the small TV in the car.
The Siam Paragon in Bangkok is brightly lit, and the posters of "Sekiro" on the closed elevator doors are close together.
On the subway billboard in London, on the cruise ship passing by the Sydney Opera House, behind the glider passing by in the sky of Florida.
Advertisements about Sekiro and Golden Wind, as well as strange methods of announcements, emerge in endlessly.
Based in Huaguo, Golden Wind adopts encirclement tactics at the Asian level, giving up the neon lights, and infiltrating the promotion into other Asian countries in a cheap and high-quality way.
At the same time, it extends from Europe to the west and the United States to the east, maximizing the promotion of "Tori" on a global scale.
For a while, the Kebaala publicity team headed by Moriya Toruya was a bit overwhelmed by the joint attack of Gu Sheng and Shen Miaomiao.
The so-called shopping malls are like battlefields, and the booths announced by Xuanfa are actually equivalent to the respective positions of both parties.
Obviously, Golden Wind is very aware that his influence and connections in Neon are far less than that of Comera.
Therefore, they simply gave up the neon position, and turned to crazy attacks on Comera's overseas strongholds.
Unmoved like a mountain, aggressive like fire!
The previous Golden Wind did not announce it, not because they were unable to announce it, but because they were unwilling to announce it!
But this time, they plan to announce it!
and!
It was Shen Miaomiao—the only daughter of Shen Wanlin, the helm of the world-class asset complex—who wanted to promote her company's products!
Don't look at the monk's face to see the Buddha's face, but anyone who has a relationship with Shen's capital, whether it is a subsidiary industry or a partner.
Who dares to treat Miss Shen family coldly?
What's more, in today's Golden Wind, one on the left and one on the right are the guardians of Huaguo's two largest gaming conglomerates, with the backing of Huayu Electronics standing behind them, and the official endorsement halo behind them!
If you really want to announce it, it will be like a long rainbow penetrating the sun, or like a dragon going out to sea!
It turned the game circle upside down, causing an uproar!
A hammer to the east and a stick to the west made Mori Gusang dizzy and overwhelmed!
"We can't let the wind of gold continue to spread like this,"
At the announcement meeting, Kazuo Koizumi frowned and looked at the president Kamikoshi Kemasa:
"Nowadays, we have already established the solid position of Neon, but if we let them continue to spread like this, I am afraid that we will only have the local position left!"
Of course Joe Koizumi knew that what Koizumi said was true.
He is also frowning.
The ghost knows that the golden wind, who has always been less interested in Xuanfa, seems to have been beaten this time.
Even last night, when he saw the photo of the glider pulling the golden wind propaganda banner and flying over Florida, he couldn't help but exclaimed that it was outrageous.
Overseas positions were lost one by one.
Joetsu Kagemasa couldn't help feeling anxious and irritable, and looked at Moritani:
"Executive Moritani, there is still more than a week before the video game festival will start,"
"Facing the offensive of the golden wind, in your opinion, what should we do next?"
Everyone looked at Moriya Toruya.
I saw him pondering for a moment.
He opened the mouth and said, "Stick to it."
"Stick?!"
Hearing this, Kazuo Koizumi couldn't help screaming:
"Executive Moritani! What do you mean...we just watch them eat away at our overseas publicity position?"
"right,"
Toru Mori also nodded:
"Because the video game festival will be held in Neon after all, and Dongjin is a battleground for both of us,"
"If we disperse our energy to deal with their overseas positions at this time, it will inevitably cause our local defense line to be weak,"
"Comera has a big influence in neon, but it is not so big that it can cover the sky with one hand,"
"Once we relax, there's a good chance we'll let the wind of gold come in," he said.
"After all... our current enemy is not just the golden wind..."
Speaking of which.
Moriya sighed lightly.
"We are facing the combined army of Golden Wind, Yiyou and Shun Teng,"
"And behind this joint army, there is an even bigger Shen's capital,"
"Even though Shen's capital has not made a move so far, the influence of that behemoth alone is enough to benefit Golden Wind a lot."
Moriya has a clear view of this announcement war.
And in fact, as he said.
If only relying on a golden wind, Komela's announcement could crush them to death in minutes.
The main problem now is that there are too many people, companies, organizations, units that help Golden Wind!
Perhaps in terms of size, Komera does not lose to the "Golden United Army".
But the problem is, the tentacles of this f-cking joint army are too wide!
This kind of feeling is like all over the world, in all walks of life, there are people who can use the wind of gold, and they all have the face that Mr. Shen can sell!
This is so scary!
She can even use the planes in the United States, the subway in London, and the light rail in Kuala Lumpur to use the advertising space of these things to promote "Sekiro".
All the tricks outside the box!
The so-called clever woman can't cook without rice!
Moriya really did his best.
How could he not have a good father!
but!
Although Moritani sighed again and again, he was not completely helpless.
After all, both of them are game companies.
No matter how outrageous, complex, and shocking the announcement is, how vast the aspects involved are.
Bottom line.
In the end, they still want to return to games, to Neon, to Dongjin, and to this video game festival.
Now, in less than ten days, players and media from all over the world will gather in Neon one after another.
As long as they can firmly maintain the dominance of "Torii" in Dongjin, they will not be overwhelmed by the golden wind.
Wait for work with leisure, stick to the homeland.
This is Moriya's strategy.
However!
In this regard, Koizumi found it difficult to accept.
Because in his opinion, the 3S level masterpieces of both parties this time are all geared towards the world!
Now, their overseas announcements are on fire everywhere, and the discussion of "Sekiro" has soared significantly around the world!
If things go on like this, in another ten days, they may only have the Neon position left!
And the one who also had this thought was Joe Keisha.
It's just that he has a higher level of thinking than Koizumi——
He needs to give an explanation to the board of directors and investors.
You know, since the failure of the last "Silent Hill" project, the board of directors and investors have been criticizing him.
But this time, after spending so much money and recruiting so many people, they finally expanded the publicity of "Tori" to all over the world based on neon lights, making the situation very good.
Back at this time?
Back to Neon native?
How about the expenses spent before that?
How to explain the situation of overseas publicity and distribution of big money for small things and fire everywhere?
We co-authored it for a long time, and the final result of a meal of operation is to win the initiative in the announcement of the neon dominance?
So the fuck is it going to cost tens of millions of dollars?
Koizumi refused to retreat.
You can't go back if you go up.
Moritani wanted to retreat, but he could not retreat half a step amidst the voices of veto.
Ever since, Comera's counterattack in overseas markets has begun.
The two sides fought in a daze.
In just five days, the outcome has been decided.
The overseas publicity campaign of Golden Wind has become more and more sluggish and contracted, and Comera has regained the upper hand.
The news came.
From Joetsu Keisha to Kazuo Koizumi, everyone in the company sang triumphantly and rejoiced.
Everyone is full of energy, straight back, ready to welcome the upcoming Dongjin Video Game Festival!
Only one person can't laugh...
...
That night.
Moritani tossed and turned, unable to sleep.
Lying on the tatami, tossing and turning, I just feel uneasy.
The phone is picked up and put down, put down and picked up again.
It wasn't until early in the morning that he finally made up his mind, turned over and sat up, clicked on the number, and made a call.
beep--
beep--
beep--
The phone rang several times.
A man's voice rang from the other end of the phone: "Saxili, Sengu-san, what's the matter with calling so late?"
good.
The man on the other end of the phone is Gu Sheng.
"Well……"
Moritani sighed and opened his mouth:
"Sorry, Gu Sang, it's really rude to bother you so late."
"Hey, it's okay,"
There was a rustling sound, it sounded like Gu Sheng sat up:
"What's wrong?"
"Um--"
After pondering for a while, Moriya hesitated and said:
"The suppression of various announcements against you before, including this competition for overseas markets, was all planned by me,"
"I hope Gu Sang won't... mind too much."
Moriya's voice was low, feeling very sorry.
However, Gu Sheng, who had expected it for a long time, was not annoyed, he just smiled: "Be dedicated to your duties, Mori Gu-san, do you think I am a person who does not distinguish between public and private?"
heard the words.
Moriya was taken aback.
Then he smiled suddenly: "That's right, a person with a broad mind like Gu Sang will definitely not blame me for this."
Speaking of which.
There was silence on both sides.
Then, Moritani continued to speak:
"Today's phone call is mainly because of a... unfeeling request. I hope Gu Sang can clear up my doubts for me,"
"Oh, of course, if it's inconvenient, Gu Sang can refuse."
Just listening to the other end of the phone, Gu Sheng chuckled: "It's okay, Moriya-san, but it's okay to talk."
Moriya hesitated for a moment.
Then he opened his mouth and asked:
"The contraction of overseas publicity was intentional by Gu Sang, right?"
moment.
Gu Sheng's voice sounded: "Yes."
silence.
There was a long silence.
Toru Mori also closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Strange to say.
At the moment of getting the answer.
He was originally in a state of anxiety, but he just fell to the ground.
After all, there are three more days.
Dongjin Video Game Festival is about to open.
The publicity war between "Tori" and "Sekiro" is a foregone conclusion, and there is nothing to change.
"All right……"
Moritani's mood was complicated, he didn't know whether to laugh or sigh, he shook his head:
"Does it also include Dongjin?"
It sounds like this is a bit out of the blue.
Most people can't understand what he is asking.
But Gu Sheng understood.
Opened his mouth, and did not answer directly, but said:
"When you pass by Ginza for work tomorrow, you can stop and take a look. It should be more conspicuous."
"……well……"
Moriya nodded:
"Then... I won't bother Gu Sang anymore, good night."
"Good night Sengu-san," Gu Sheng also hung up the phone, "See you in two days."
The moon sets and the sun rises.
The morning mist has not dissipated.
There are few pedestrians on the street. It is not yet the morning rush hour, and there are not many people on the road.
In the hazy autumn fog, a silver-gray Lexus is passing through the fog.
Moritani held the steering wheel in his hand, turned slightly, and entered the side road.
Diagonally across the street with few pedestrians, there are row upon row of gorgeous buildings.
The largest strip-style commercial building at the corner is the core of the Ginza commercial district. It is located on the so-called "Neon Cross Road" and occupies the most prosperous commercial district in Dongjin, and even the most prosperous commercial district in Ginza Mitsukoshi. .
at this time.
On the huge advertising space on the side facade of Mitsukoshi Department Store, several workers are under construction.
The jewelry advertisements that were originally lavish here have been replaced.
A roll of huge promotional posters is ready to go, waiting to be spread.
The autumn morning mist is cool.
Toru Mori also lit a cigarette and wrapped himself in the overcoat.
And the workers above the building are also shouting at this moment——
"One Qi! Ni! San! (One, Two, Three)"
With the last number floating in the autumn mist.
A pair of giant-screen posters rolled out and displayed in the most eye-catching position on the most bustling road in the whole neon area——
A man in a khaki coarse cloth coat was holding a knife with both hands, half kneeling among the fluttering red leaves.
A face with sharp edges and corners, eyes deep and resolute.
In his hand, the samurai sword has a cold light, and the left hand prosthetic arm is precise.
And on the right side of the screen, the main and subtitles are eye-catching——
【SEKIRO】
【Shadows Die Twice】
Moriya Toru also looked at the huge poster and was silent for a long time!
Then, shook his head and smiled.
With helplessness, bitterness, and irreparable loss.
What he was most worried about finally happened...
