Chapter 428 332. Are we showing off our muscles? ! (Seeking monthly votes)
On July 12, the first day after the E3 Electronics Show pre-show conference, the exhibition site was open to the public, and countless players poured in.
The organizers themselves did not expect that this year's exhibition would be so popular. All this was because Japanese game giants such as Pokeni and Sony joined in.
The location, environment, and size of the Pokeni exhibition area were all good. The downside was that Pokeni was sandwiched between Rentendo and Sega.
This really made everyone very embarrassed.
Qing Zhiyuan and Sega were fine, but he was a little embarrassed with Rentendo. On the second day, Shigeru Miyamoto flew back to China, leaving only the marketing director for the United States.
Rentendo and Sega were also embarrassed. Both sides were like you don't like me, and I don't like you. We have been fighting for so many years, and it has become an instinct and habit.
So in the whole exhibition area, apart from the lively players, the staff in the booths were basically cold and didn't talk much to each other.
Qing Zhiyuan would occasionally chat with them, which was a kind of easement in the middle.
Otherwise, the whole place would really be cold to the freezing point.
In the venue, countless players flocked to the first day when the Pokeni exhibition area was opened.
Some people wanted to experience what the so-called [super-era 3D game masterpiece] Frontier was.
In addition, a large number of people came for Pokémon.
After all, Frontier has not been released yet, let alone any mass base. Pokémon is different. It has been operating for more than 3 years and is now the most popular single-player game in the United States.
In order to make the battle zone richer and more attractive to players, Pokeni also gives away a Pokémon random blind box for free every day. Everyone can receive it once, and there are also some small peripherals.
The Pokémon blind boxes are basically large Pokémon pillows, which contain Pokémon ranging from Pikachu to Moon Eevee. However, the reason why it is a blind box is that you may not be able to draw any one, and the Pokémon inside are all random.
The staff themselves don’t know who is in it.
On the first day, the Pokémon exhibition area was very lively, and the players were crazy about it.
Kazuma Takahashi stood on the high platform, organizing the staff to maintain order on the scene, and shouted loudly, "Everyone can only have one chance to receive it! Please line up in order!
Line up in order!!!"
In addition to adults, there are many children, or more accurately, children brought by adults.
When they heard the three words Pokémon, they went crazy.
"Giggle... I want a Pikachu so much, which one is Pikachu?!"
"Give me one, give me one!"
"I want one too, I want one too!"
The chirping of the children made Qing Zhiyuan's ears hurt.
I just felt that my head was about to explode.
It felt like there were a hundred mouths around me.
And Kazuma Takahashi organized them for a long time before they lined up. A quick glance would reveal that the line was so long that it stretched from the Pokeni exhibition area to the outside of the hall.
Even the other friendly merchants around were shocked.
It is indeed Pokémon.
"What did you get? Do you want to exchange with me?"
"What is yours? Mine is Psyduck."
"Wow, Psyduck is so cute, and mine is Bulbasaur."
"Does anyone want Pikachu?! Exchange Pikachu for Eevee! If you have Eevee, you can exchange with me!!"
"Oh my God! I actually got a Moon Eevee!!! Oh my god!!!"
"Really?! I want a Moon Eevee too!! Why don't you name a price? My child likes this Moon Eevee very much."
"I got a Sun Eevee!!! So beautiful, just like the elves in fairy tales."
The children jumped and made a lot of noise, surrounding the entire Pokeni exhibition area.
Even the players who were trying out "Border" nearby couldn't stand it.
And it's not just children who like Pokémon, many adults also like Pokémon, and they are willing to buy them even if they have to pay money.
Less than half an hour after the opening, the 500 Pokémon blind boxes prepared were [snapped up].
So scary! ……
Sonic and Uncle Mario next to them were silent.
Is Pokémon so good?
……
After the free benefits were given away, the Pokeni exhibition area suddenly became much quieter.
It's not that no one came at all, but it was not surrounded by three layers inside and outside like at the beginning.
There were quite a lot of children, and they were all looking for Pokémon actors on the scene to take photos and play together.
Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but sigh-
Pokémon is worthy of being the world's number one IP. Fortunately, I won it, otherwise Rentian would be in heaven now?
The humanoid Pokémon walked around the site, which was in stark contrast to the cool cosplayers in other exhibition areas.
In the hot weather in July, wearing a doll costume was really uncomfortable. It was not easy for the cosplayers to earn this money.
No, in a precise sense, they are not called cosplayers anymore, they are probably just puppet performers, because you don’t even have a chance to show your face, you have to be wrapped in such a thick doll costume the whole time, and you have to put on various poses. A classic look from games or animations.
Make cute moves, take photos with passers-by and other players.
It's actually quite hard.
No job is easy.
Qing Zhiyuan was sitting in his own exhibition area, his eyes kept being attracted by the cosplayer of Lara Croft of Tomb Raider 2 diagonally opposite.
In fact, not only Qing Zhiyuan, but also most people present including the media reporters were attracted to her.
Although it was said that pokeni became the number one winner and the most handsome boy at the pre-show conference the day before yesterday with the game "Border" and Nvidia's powerful graphics card capabilities, but those are just titles based on strength.
To this day, people have still returned from rationality to sensibility. The Lara Croft model in Tomb Raider is more eye-catching than all the games combined, and there is no way around it.
Who says game geeks don’t like beautiful women?
That's no chance of getting close to a beautiful woman.
Now many gamers at the scene are eager to take a photo or two with Laura. This is not only Laura, but also Lorna Mitra, who is from the TV series "Ghostbusters of Finchley East" Actress, future female star.
(Many people may not have an impression of Rona Maitra. She is best known for playing the beautiful female neighbor next door in the thriller "Transparent".)
I definitely want to go over and take a photo or two as a souvenir.
…
"President, do you want to go to a nightclub or something to relax at night?"
Kazuma Takahashi's voice came from the side, pulling Qing Zhiyuan out of his thoughts.
"Huh?" Qing Zhiyuan blinked in confusion.
"I see that you have been staring at other people's models. If you like it, I can ask for their contact information, or I can find some local friends to take you to play in the evening?"
Kazuma Takahashi also blinked, but strangely, he only blinked on one side.
"ha?"
Qing Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment before he reacted.
"What are you talking about? I'm not that kind of person. I'm already married."
Kazuma Takahashi suddenly felt a little pain in his face, "Ah, sorry, I thought you, President..."
Many men will become bad when they get rich, especially the president who is so young and handsome. Takahashi Kazuma thought that now that Qing Zhiyuan's wife is pregnant, the president will be dissatisfied.
As a sincere subordinate, especially since he is mainly in charge of operations, he naturally has to know how to watch people's actions, so he subconsciously thinks that the president has needs in this regard.
"It's okay, just use your tricks on your customers."
Qing Zhiyuan smiled and patted his shoulder.
Qing Zhiyuan has done similar things. He keeps himself clean, but if some customers like you, you still have to make arrangements.
Thinking of this, Qing Zhiyuan's figure involuntarily appeared in Qing Zhiyuan's mind.
That guy was also a prodigal before he got married.
Who would have thought that after getting married, he would be managed obediently by his wife.
Qing Zhiyuan definitely doesn't think that Hattori Hiroyuki will really turn back as a prodigal son. He can only say that the influence of his wife's chaebol is too great, which makes Hattori himself have to restrain himself.
"I looked at the other person's model because..."
Qing Zhiyuan turned around and said, "Look, don't we have a strong contrast? The cameras must be pointed at beautiful female models. Who would want to take pictures of us?"
However, it cannot be said that there are no people in the pokeni exhibition area.
It can be said that P Club is still very popular in terms of games, but most of the people who come here are children.
There are a lot of people who like border games, but they just lose out when it comes to cosplay.
…
In future electronics shows, not only will competition be about gaming and strength, but also competition about who can hire a more beautiful showgirl.
Hey, how can I put it, as long as one person is involved, the entire industry will be involved.
Qing Zhiyuan has somewhat understood those colleagues who hate him.
Could it be that the Tokyo Symphony Orchestra's value has doubled because of his saucy moves at these two electronics exhibitions, and everyone will be rushing to invite them to perform at the exhibition next year?
Thinking of this, Qing Zhiyuan couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Is that so? How about I go find a group of beautiful cosplayers?" Takahashi Kazuma asked thoughtfully.
No, to be precise, he was extremely nervous and terrified.
Because this is what he should do. When participating in an electronics exhibition, he must make the event beautiful.
It is really a sin to make the president lose face now.
The exhibition area has no face, and the president has no face.
The president has no face, just like Takahashi has no face.
"That's not necessary." Qing Zhiyuan shook his head, "Where can we invite someone else to invite a female star from a TV series who is also the spokesperson for a game? Should we also invite a female star over?
It's too late in time. "
"Well...that's true." Kazuma Takahashi frowned.
It's too hasty to find a celebrity to endorse now. As long as you are willing to spend money, it shouldn't be a big problem, but the process will take time, and the cost-effectiveness is too low.
If you just randomly find a pretty girl to come to the show, her reputation will definitely not be as high as others, and she will naturally not become the focus of reporters and media.
Kazuma Takahashi thought to himself,
In fact, the president should have chosen a good spokesperson for "Border" from the beginning.
“And, if you look at our games, one Pokémon, one Border.
One is a children's cute pet route, and the other is a war shooting game with a tough-guy war style.
Neither of them is suitable to hire a beautiful cosplayer, okay? "
"Then... how about we invite a group of muscular men over?" Kazuma Takahashi asked tentatively.
"It's interesting." Qing Zhiyuan smiled.
"Hmm, they are all the kind whose thighs are thicker than my neck and can kill someone with one fist. They are in sharp contrast to the other side.
Next door sells meat, we sell muscles. "
Kazuma Takahashi immediately became excited, "Then everyone was given a gun. The gun was a real gun, but with the bullets removed.
A group of tough men with bare arms and camouflage uniforms came here and stood in a row.
That aura is definitely intimidating, and it won’t be used by others to say that our cosplayer is not as beautiful or famous as the other person.
Originally we were taking the tough guy route.
War is inherently cruel, and shooting games require this kind of passionate feeling. "
Qing Zhiyuan watched him keep talking. Later, Kazuma Takahashi also noticed something was wrong, and his voice became smaller and smaller...
"President, why are you looking at me like this? You look at me like this and I feel flustered."
"Okay," Qing Zhiyuan smiled, "There is a row of tough guys standing here. Players don't need to come over. They are all for reporters to take pictures.
Tomorrow’s news topic is——
pokeni invited a bunch of macho men to take the stand, in sharp contrast to the beautiful Laura opposite.
Guess, do players prefer to play games with beautiful women, or do they want to play our games with macho men? "
"Ah..." Kazuma Takahashi scratched his head, wanting to say that the macho man was very good, but when he saw Qing Zhiyuan's sharp eyes, he had to lower his head.
"Players like things that look fierce but are actually harmless."
Qing Zhiyuan concluded, "And if you think about it, why do so many games use showgirl instead of showboy?"
No matter what game you are in, generally speaking, the spokesperson can choose a well-known one, regardless of gender.
But, for on-site cosplayers, even if you are making an all-male baseball game, you still need a beautiful girl to kick off the game.
It is impossible for NBA games to really invite Jordan to come to the platform. Generally, good-looking girls are always the ones to stand.
Or a group of girls with a few good-looking boys among them.
It's the same no matter which country.
The reason...
It can only be said that there are too many LSPs in this world.
And just like Qing Zhiyuan said, people like things that look fierce but are not actually lethal. Laura looks very fierce and sexy, and more people don’t really think she is lethal because she It's a girl.
But if you put a bunch of muscular men here to stop, it will be a gimmick, but it will make people feel distant.
The sense of oppression was so strong that no one dared to come over and play games.
What's more, you want them to get guns. How is this possible?
…
"Forget it," Qing Zhiyuan shook his head, "Let's prepare in advance next time."
"Um."
Kazuma Takahashi nodded helplessly and wrote down his thoughts this time in a small notebook.
A good operations director must always understand the psychology of users and the psychology of the president.
But...
Kazuma Takahashi thought to himself, who else can I blame? I can only blame myself, the president.
You have never properly designed a representative character with a female as the main body. In this electronics exhibition, even if there is one more galgame, you can directly bring a bunch of beautiful cosplayers.
Now look at it, one is a shooting game and the other is Pokemon, there is no choice at all, right?
There is very little room for operation.
You can't let a beautiful woman put on Pokémon clothes and show off here, right?
That’s weird too, okay?
In fact, Qing Zhiyuan also had some regrets.
If "My Robot Girlfriend" had a rough prototype, he could logically have a row of robot girls standing in front of the booth.
It’s hard to say whether it can be as good as Laura, but it’s definitely very eye-catching.
Think about it, a group of cool and beautiful girls with good figures wearing technological robot costumes are standing here. Who wouldn’t want to take more shots?
Now look around him, Rentendo's big-headed Mario, next to Sega's Sonic the Hedgehog, plus his own Pikachu...
A group of large dolls, each one more bulky than the last, attract the most children.
"Why……"
Qing Zhiyuan crossed his hands and sighed again.
A character like Laura is really hard to come by, especially after Angelina Jolie became popular in the future. Laura's charming and cool-to-the-bone fighting female image is even more deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, making everyone Everyone remembers this girl deeply.
If only we had similar characters.
Qing Zhiyuan turned around and looked at his exhibition area.
If there is a Laura placed in the middle of a pile of Pokémon.
That scene is really interesting to think about.
…
But what kind of character can achieve this effect?
If you want to go for the European and American style, it is best to be cooler and more handsome, for example, the gun in the hand must be indispensable, and at the same time, it must be very good at fighting.
It is best to be like in Hong Kong Kung Fu movies.
One person can fight ten people, can fly over eaves and walls, jump off cliffs and tall buildings.
Facing danger without changing his face...
The more Qing Zhiyuan thought about it, the clearer the shadow in his mind became.
In the end, it turned into a man in black.
Damn it! ! !
Qing Zhiyuan stood up from the ground, scaring Takahashi Kazuma next to him.
His eyes were blurred and he looked at the exhibition area in front of him.
The Pokémon doll actor who was stared at by him had a pounding heart, and then silently moved his position.
Fortunately——
Qing Zhiyuan's eyes did not follow, but he was lost in thought.
Qing Zhiyuan's mind was now filled with only one word——
The Matrix.
…
