Rebirth 86: I Use Games to Kick Open the Door to the World

Chapter 109 It’s Time to Choose, Fourth Update

"Asshole, wait for me to use my ultimate move. You'll beat me to death with your fists and I won't be able to use my ultimate move!"

"Hey, what's the point of using the ultimate move? It's best to win!"

"Damn it, I won't play with you next time!"

"Come on, let's play together. I'll use my moves with you."

At the door, Zuozhen listened to Ozawa Kenji express his love for the game and expressed that he really wanted to see the full version of the game, so he took Zuozhen into the magazine's office area.

At this moment, the office area seems to have turned into a game arcade.

Several people not far away were yelling about big moves.

The three computers in the magazine have now installed the game, and there are already people standing in front of the three computers.

There are about fifty people in the magazine.

Among them, there are nearly 40 magazine editors, and the rest are in legal, administrative and other positions.

Now this group of people are all gathered in front of three computers and are unwilling to move.

Ozawa Kenji came in and looked at this scene with some emotion.

When was the last time people at magazines were this excited?

It should have been the year before last when Super Mario was just released.

At that time, there were almost as many people surrounding the newly purchased NGS game consoles.

Super Mario is the key to a new era of gaming.

The King of Fighters is like a cross-generational species, relying on the top-level image quality of NGS to make these people unwilling to leave the computer.

Whenever someone uses a big move during a battle, it will attract a burst of cheers from the onlookers, and the atmosphere is quite lively.

"Zuo Zhen-san, are you planning to release a second part with the following content? Hurry up and release it. I feel that as long as you release it, it will definitely be very popular."

Ozawa Kenji looked at Zuo Zhen longingly.

Zuo Zhen said: "It's not that I don't want to do it, it's just that I really have no choice. Today's game consoles can't hold that much capacity. This game has already allowed me to fill up the upper limit of the cartridge capacity on the NGS. If I want to add more content, I'm already exhausted." It’s very difficult.”

"That's really a pity, but I heard that some manufacturers are developing new game consoles, but it's a pity that they can't be released now, otherwise you can consider those manufacturers."

Zuo Zhen's heart moved: "Speaking of the new game console, I have to mention the purpose of why I came to you today."

"Why are you looking for me? Oh yes, Zuo Zhensang, you came to me again for something. Sorry, I was so excited that I forgot about it."

Ozawa Kenci took Zuo Zhen to find a small soundproof reception room, poured tea for Zuo Zhen and then listened to what Zuo Zhen wanted to do with him.

But from time to time, he would look at the lively scene of his colleagues playing King of Fighters outside the reception room.

"I would like to ask you about the game consoles that have been released or are about to be released in the game industry. Your game magazines and media should have a lot of news in this regard, right?"

Ozawa Kenji nodded: "There is indeed a lot, but why do you want this information? Are you not satisfied with NGS? I want to advise you, it is best not to do this. NGS hates the games on its platform being sold to other companies. You haven’t grown in scale yet, so it’s better to wait until you are strong enough and have bargaining power before you consider this matter.”

Kenji Ozawa used his editing time to give Zuo Zhen serious and thoughtful suggestions, and he also believed that this was the most reasonable suggestion.

"And NGS now accounts for 90% of the market. I feel there is no need to provoke NGS dissatisfaction and develop in other small-scale markets."

Zuo Zhen shrugged: "It's not that I want to leave NGS on my own initiative, it's just that I really have no choice. NGS won't allow me to launch The King of Fighters this year, so I'll have to find other companies."

"Is it the NGS company that publishes the number of games?"

"right."

"But I remember that this seems to be negotiable. If your grades are so good, NGS will definitely be willing to give you some privileges."

Zuo Zhen shook his head: "Obviously, my asking you the question just now proves that I didn't negotiate well."

Ozawa Kenji blinked.

Listening to what Zuo Zhen said, what big news is this?

"Zuo Zhen-san, what happened?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just some contractual issues."

Kenji Ozawa really wanted to ask a few more questions.

But obviously it was inappropriate to ask the person involved directly this kind of question, which might be more offensive, so he held back in the end.

"Then wait a minute. I'll look for information about our magazine for you. Don't worry, Zuo Zhensang. You've come to the right place for me. We know the most about the news in the game industry, even the news in the United States. We all understand."

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."

Ozawa Kenji asked Zuo Zhen to wait in the reception room for a while, while he quickly ran to his work station to rummage around.

Then he went to the company's data room and other colleagues' workstations and searched for a long time. Finally, he found a stack of promotional brochures and some handwritten notes and returned to the reception room.

"Zuo Zhensang, this is some information about game consoles that are currently being released and will be released soon. You can take a look. Some of them have been published in our BEEP magazine, and some have not yet been published and are planned to be published in the next month or two."

This information is very complex.

Zuo Zhen took a look and found that there were also some photocopied promotional posters that seemed to be faxed from overseas. The pictures were blurry, but he could roughly see what the propaganda content was.

"OK, thanks."

"If you have any questions, I can help you answer them."

Kenji Ozawa is very enthusiastic.

He was now counting on himself to be more enthusiastic and see if he could unintentionally extract some information from Zuo Zhen.

Without hurting Zuo Zhen, you can still get the information you want. This is what an editor like him is best at doing.

At the same time, he also wanted to ask Zuo Zhen about the development plan for The King of Fighters.

Zuo Zhenzai read every piece of information carefully.

During this period, Ozawa Kenji introduced these game consoles based on his own memory.

"VTech, the game consoles of this company are still good, but they are a bit behind the times. This is still a company run by you Chinese people. According to our gossip, they are planning to develop a new game console, but It may not be released until next year, but I guess you can’t wait.”

"Sega SG Mark 2, this is a good game console. In fact, I have always thought that this game console is quite powerful, better than NGS, but there are not many games. It is a pity. If Zuo Zhen-san wants to find other companies to develop, this game The machine is very good.”

"Atari is going to release the 7800 this year. This thing is good, but there is no market in Japan. You have to go to the United States to negotiate."

"PCE, if you ask me to recommend, this game console is my most recommended. This game console will be released in October this year. It has been advertising like crazy recently, saying that it is a product of a new era and has a so-called 16-bit processor. If the game console is as good as it says, this game console must have a future!"
