Chapter 199 Making a Benchmarking Game Second Update

The fact that the president agreed so simply was a little beyond Gaomura Xiong's expectations.

But he soon figured out the reason for this.

Now NGS is aggressive, and I heard that the president is often ridiculed by NGS people at some upper-class gatherings.

The president probably couldn't bear it anymore.

However, there is also the reason that Zuo Zhen himself does have the ability.

So far, Zuozhen's games released on Sega have sold at least 300,000 units.

For example, the largest number of heavy-duty mechas are now not far away from selling one million copies.

On the NGS side, having one million sales is considered a bit of strength.

But on Sega's side it's a god.

The president probably decided to trust Zuo Zhenyi because of this.

"Speed ​​up the research and development of Sega MD." The president personally ordered at the meeting.

But some people have raised doubts.

Sega still has a lot of old game consoles in stock, as well as a lot of cartridges in stock. If it doesn't digest them, the loss will probably exceed several billion yen.

This is not a small amount.

But in fact, according to the current situation, Sega can really bear this kind of loss.

Because the current Japanese economy is quite good. In the past few years, one U.S. dollar could be exchanged for two hundred yen. Now it has directly increased in value to one U.S. dollar for one hundred yen. The biggest benefit of currency appreciation is that there are many productions. Data costs are greatly reduced.

Even a game company like them has gained a lot of benefits from it.

So, the amount of money lost on these game consoles is a bit painful, but it is also acceptable.

Of course, the premise is that Zuozhen himself can indeed save Sega's current situation as he said.

The president of Sega doesn't want anything else, even if he can only maintain his current position.

But if it can be better...that would be great luck.

Gao Cunxiong told Zuo Zhen the news immediately.

Sega has begun arranging the release plan of the Sega MD game console.

The Sega MD development opportunity was sent to Zuo Zhen as soon as possible, so that they could produce adapted Sega MD games as soon as possible, and then Sega would mass-produce the cassettes.

At the same time, Sega also needs some content for the games Zuozhen is currently making, and they need to promote them.

Now that the decision has been made, the entire company can execute it very efficiently.

Without saying a word, Zuo Zhen sent over the three games he had already produced.

He himself also wanted to go to Japan again.

However, time is tight at this time and the tasks are heavy.

After a period of careful research, Sega determined that the console could be released in February.

Then the game given by Zuo Zhen must be completed at least one month ago.

Under such pressure, the entire team was in a very nervous state.

The problem with the high-definition version of The King of Fighters is actually not big. It is mainly about adding game characters, so the time invested will not be too much.

The ones that require more time are Sonic the Hedgehog and the Juggernaut.

After hanging up the contact with Gao Cunxiong, Zuo Zhen immediately gathered together the people his company had just recruited.

"Everyone, so far our real game company has gained a certain reputation overseas, but this is not enough. My vision is to make us famous all over the world, and now this opportunity is right in front of us. Starting from today, we Everyone needs to work at full capacity, and everyone’s salary during this period will be tripled, regardless of whether they need to work overtime or not. The price is the same, of course, at the cost of your increased work efficiency during this period.”

Triple it!

This is what the dozens of people present paid most attention to.

Half of these people are students from Kyungsan University.

The other half were people introduced by Zhan Weishan to Zuo Zhen through his own connections. They came from different schools, and some of them were already graduated students.

In the past year or two, whether it is within an agency or some traditional factories, doing business overseas seems to have become a popular term.

And they, college students, are the ones who yearn for it the most.

They gradually began to no longer be willing to go to the work unit to eat and wait to die every day.

So I came to Zuo Zhen on the recommendation.

And when they first arrived, they experienced such a battle.

Triple salary.

Now the average salary of each of them can reach more than 200 yuan a month. If it triples again, it will be 600 to 700 yuan.

No wonder so many people want to go into business. These wages are enough for them to earn in ordinary units for several years.

So they were all very motivated.

Is the job difficult?

Haha, they are not afraid of difficulties. As long as they have the motivation, any difficulty is just a paper tiger and they will be solved for you.

Pajitnov seemed a bit out of place among these people.

The main reason is that he still doesn't understand Chinese, and now he can only use simple words to express his happiness or unhappiness, or agreement and denial.

Seeing the happy faces of these Chinese people, he thought they were preparing to celebrate something important.

"You said... you want to speed up the development of the game? And you also need me to lead the program development?"

Zuo Zhen gave Pajitnov a special task.

As a producer who has developed Tetris, he understands the concept of the game better than anyone else under Zuo Zhen, coupled with his own talent.

To be able to work in the computer center of Mao Ziguo, one has two skills.

It would be no problem to let him be the director of program development.

"That's right, let's take a look at the two games I'm going to make first. One of them is the second work of Juggernaut, and the other is Sonic the Hedgehog."

"Sonic the Hedgehog? What a weird name."

"Don't worry about the name, you just need to know that this is a game that competes with NGS' Super Mario. By the way, you have already played Super Mario, right?"

Although Pajitnov is a very powerful game producer, Zuo Zhen knew that he had almost no access to foreign games when he was in Maozi Country.

Mao Ziguo is very cautious about foreign things, especially things from capital countries in Europe and the United States.

Entertainment and cultural products like this are the key targets for review.

Want to play Japanese and American video games? It’s better not to think about it.

"Of course I have. Zuo Zhen's Super Mario game is really interesting. If possible, I would even want my children to play this game right now."

When it comes to games, Pajitnov's eyes light up.

For the first time, he discovered that the game had so many interesting branches.

But speaking of it, he thinks Super Mario is amazing, but it's still not as amazing as the games made by Zuo Zhen.

As for the squirrel fight, he was still wondering how it was done.

His boss is unusual.

The quality of the game "Squirrel Wars" is not inferior to NGS' Super Mario.

"The Sonic the Hedgehog game I want to make this time is a game that competes with Super Mario in all aspects."
