Chapter 146 Launch Game Second Update
Now that the company is officially established, a small celebration is definitely indispensable.
In the past, we would celebrate when the game development was completed. Just as the production of Crazy Football was completed, we celebrated together.
That night, everyone went to a new restaurant for dinner. This restaurant also had a special singing stage, and people would usually sing there.
Zuo Zhen and his group had a great time, and a few of them almost wanted to use this place as a karaoke bar.
The shop owner was a little unhappy. Zuo Zhen and his gang were not very good at singing, and they wanted to make his customers angry.
But this is when the power of money comes into play.
At this time, Zuo Zhen was unambiguous and simply booked a reservation for a thousand yuan a night. If he didn't have enough, he would add more. The restaurant owner's unhappy expression immediately turned into a smile.
Sing well.
Wonderful singing.
Singing and screaming.
It would be best if he could come here and sing every day, then he would be able to earn a thousand a day.
It is not easy to earn a thousand a day in this age.
After the celebration, everyone went back to their homes.
On the next day, everyone officially arrived at the new office location.
Everyone's offices are located on the second floor of the main building.
In fact, there are only seven people in the entire company now, plus the newly hired janitor, that's eight people.
As for the driver, I don't need it that much.
Zuo Zhen can drive himself, and other colleagues are also eager to learn to drive in the future. They will not let others drive for them. How cool it is to drive by yourself.
The total space occupied by seven people in the main building is not much.
Originally, everyone was thinking whether Zuo Zhen would find the largest room as his own separate office.
After all, Zuo Zhen is now considered a serious boss, no, he should be called an entrepreneur.
The term entrepreneur has become quite popular recently.
Sometimes a street vendor calls himself an entrepreneur, so wouldn't their current boss Zuo Zhen be even more of an entrepreneur?
However, Zuo Zhen has no obsession with things like the office. Even if he has his own independent office, he probably doesn't have much time to spend there.
It would be better to work in the same place with other people, which would be the most efficient way to communicate.
The next thing to do is to optimize Crazy Football, and another task is to enter the development rhythm of Crazy Basketball.
When the development of Crazy Basketball is completed, the release of PCE will not be far away.
Nippon Electric's PCE is about to be released, and they really need an excellent launch game to hold the market together.
And Zuo Zhen is a person who is very good at playing games.
Japan Electric did not hesitate much, and directly spent a large sum of cash to temporarily buy out the crazy football and crazy basketball that Zuo Zhen would develop next.
Komura Yu from Sega was a little unhappy when he learned about it.
But there was nothing he could do if he was given a lot of money.
Later, Zuo Zhen and Komura Yu guaranteed that the exclusivity of PCE would be limited to one year. After one year, Crazy Football and Crazy Basketball would be directly launched on Sega's new platform DC game console.
This is Sega's most famous game console, and Zuo Zhen also promised to launch a high-definition enhanced version similar to other games.
Gao Cunxiong became happy again when he heard this, and began to promise Zuo Zhen that he would be given more resources in the future.
At the same time, batches of cassettes that have been produced have been transported to Europe, Australia and other places.
This should actually be regarded as Sega's main battlefield at this time.
Because the markets in the United States and Japan have been dominated by NGS, it will be difficult for Sega to seize them, so it decided to start from the fringe areas a long time ago.
This also gave Sega some stable markets in Europe and Australia.
The batch of cassettes transported are the high-definition remastered versions of Zuo Zhen’s games.
At the end of August, Zuo Zhen took the completed Crazy Football and Crazy Basketball on the plane to Japan again.
Now he is already familiar with the road, and the journey went directly to the headquarters of Nippon Electric.
Zuo Zhen was treated very well here, and everything was clearly arranged for Zuo Zhen almost throughout the process.
One of the deputy directors of the game department even flirted with Zuo Zhen, implying that if Zuo Zhen had any needs, he could talk to us at Japan Electric.
If you are willing to give up cooperation with Sega and turn around to develop games exclusively for them, Nippon Electric, then Nippon Electric will give Zuo Zhen the greatest help.
Any kind of help is welcome.
Zuo Zhen expressed his refusal with a calm heart.
Let’s not say whether Zuo Zhen is tempted by this kind of invitation.
He has long known that Japanese electronics game consoles will decline sooner or later. The reason why he is still betting on PCE is just because he doesn't want to hang himself from a tree.
When PCE becomes cool in the future, I will turn to Sony or Microsoft.
In short, no one can bind him again this time.
Speaking of which, getting rid of NGS may be a good thing, making Zuo Zhen realize that it is better to maintain his own autonomy.
After Crazy Football and Crazy Basketball were delivered to Nippon Electric, Zuo Zhen went to find his brainless fan, BEEP magazine editor Kenji Ozawa.
I definitely have to meet him every time I come there.
This person has channels to speak out in the media, and managing this relationship well will be beneficial in the future.
So Zuo Zhen also sent a copy of Crazy Football and Crazy Basketball to Ozawa Kenji and asked him to cooperate with Nippon Electric to promote it.
However, when meeting Ozawa Kenji, another person also came with him, and that was Komura Yu, director of Sega's home console game department.
Without saying a word, Komura Xiong took Zuo Zhen to the most famous restaurant in Japan. He ordered the best dishes and got the best wine. What stood out was a luxury.
Now that Japan is at its richest, eating this luxurious meal is just a drop in the bucket for them.
And if this meal can be used to negotiate a big business, wouldn't it be more effective than any publicity?
Zuo Zhen had no reason to refuse Gao Cunxiong's invitation, so he simply went with it. Anyway, the prostitution was free of charge.
"Come on, come on, Zuozhen-san. This is our best dish in Japan. It is made by chefs who have carefully pickled ingredients for many days. This dish alone is worth more than 100,000 yen. Try it!"
One hundred thousand yen, two dishes is almost the price of a regular computer.
The Japanese today are indeed crazy enough, and their consumption level is even far higher than that of ordinary developed countries.
Recently, threats to buy the entire United States have become louder and louder, and some people have actually begun to do so. Komura Yu said that a certain chaebol seems to have bought several famous buildings in the United States and wants to use those buildings as... Their future base in the United States.
Then Gao Cunxiong also chatted with Zuo Zhen all over the world. What stood out was to have a good relationship with Zuo Zhen and retain Zuo Zhen as a talent as much as possible.
