Carmack sighed when he saw that his shabby booth finally had games ready for people to try. When it comes to gaming, if you really slow down, it will be difficult to catch up. Next to the ID software is the R-star booth. This year, Rockstar is focusing on the third-person shooting game "Max Payne" at e3. Carmack just flipped through the brochure on their booth and couldn't help but sigh. This game is like a police movie, the quality is really amazing. That group of rising stars has left old-timers like Carmack behind. But it¡¯s fine as it is now. If "Air Combat Pioneer" can really make Carmack profitable as he hopes, he can at least sustain the company. In addition, in the future, you will no longer need to pay for engine development yourself, which will put a huge financial burden on the company. The cooperation with Celadon Technology not only increases revenue but also saves costs. id Software has the ability to launch a new game every year. In terms of game production, id Software has many specialized talents, including combat designers and level designers. They are fully capable of taking on important tasks. Even if Carmack is immersed in engine development, id Software can once again assert its presence on e3. That Chinese company is really amazing. Carmack feels that the cooperation between the two parties is really a win-win situation. In the west area, above the best small booth, in addition to the sign of "Celadon Technology", there is also a sign of the target software. It became a joint booth. The big TV that plays promotional CG is still hanging, and the space under the TV that used to be blank is now hung with a promotional poster for "Three Kingdoms 2". A young general riding a white horse and holding a silver gun stands proudly on the poster. Heroic. Those visiting the West End will see it tomorrow. As long as you are interested and report it, it will produce a lot of advertising effects. Those reports are only broadcast in foreign media, but will be translated and reprinted by domestic players, and then circulated domestically. Stimulating players' spontaneous enthusiasm for reprinting, the publicity effect is much more effective than spending money to promote it. Of course Zhang Chun knew the truth, and he was embarrassed not to say a word: "Master, if I have money now, I won't discount the booth fee to you. But I will remember this time. I will definitely give this game to you." Do a good job. I will live up to your help! " These small sums of money are nothing to Wang Buhuai, not to mention that Wang Buhuai has not lost anything. After the previous two days of display, "Air Combat Pioneer" has achieved the effect of publicity in the country. Now get the South Zone. To promote operations in the United States. It's something that everyone is happy with. The seat is vacant. Isn't it normal to give to one's own people? Wang was not polite and asked: "What are you planning to invest in? Do you want my help?" Zhang Chun explained: "Do you remember telling me last year that the British made a "Total War" game? The gameplay has really brought real-time strategy games to a new level. I met them after chatting for a while, and I decided to buy a Total War license from them. After "Three Kingdoms 2" is completed, we will make a Chinese version of "Total War". It was 50,000 pounds. But I wanted full authorization, and I could use that framework to decide the subject matter. So the price they gave me was 600,000 pounds, and there was a restriction that it could only be about Chinese history." said. In fact, you don¡¯t need to buy a license and just copy it. But Zhang Chun is not that kind of person. He thinks that since others have innovated, he must recognize it. And after paying the money, you can also sell it on the international market to conquer players all over the world. Wang was excited and said: "It would be great if we could make the Warring States Period in China." "I plan to make the Three Kingdoms theme first, and then see if I want to make the Warring States Period" Zhang Chun said. The Three Kingdoms theme has complete materials and high awareness, making it easier to make and with less risk. ¡°It¡¯s okay. It¡¯s also a game I¡¯ve never played before and want to play,¡± Wang Fuli said. If "Total War" has a Chinese theme and can truly reflect the political and military changes in China during a certain period of time, it is definitely worth spending time to play. Wang Fulian asked: "Do you want me to help you with anything?" "No, it's just that the procedure is a bit troublesome, but I can still come up with 600,000 pounds." Zhou Yi said quickly. "You do it well, I'm waiting to play." Wang Fuli said. Wang Fulai, like countless Chinese players, is full of resentment that "Total War" does not have Chinese history. But he also understood the reason. Thinking about it, you know that those British people will use the theme of "Total War" to depict Japan's shogunate period. That is because Japan's cultural export in the 1980s influenced the generation of children who have grown up. Some of the children who grew up began to doGames, some started to buy games. After the initial works proved the success of this game model in major markets such as the United States, British manufacturers will naturally continue to make familiar themes in major markets. "Medieval", "Rome", etc. As for Chinese history, who knows whether Americans will accept it if it is done? If we give up the US market, will we be able to satisfy Chinese players and not lose money? Wang Fulai has always blamed himself, but in the end he can only blame himself. Wang Fuli patted Zhang Chun on the shoulder hard and said nothing more. The emergence of Wang Fuli means that the Chinese-themed "Total War" is about to be released. This is definitely the best butterfly effect in history. ?¡ ?The third day of e3. Sony's "undersecretary" in charge of software development deliberately came an hour late to distance himself. He summoned many manufacturers last night and planned to put pressure on the exhibition. I believe that the exhibition organizers will make careful considerations. Arriving at the scene, the deputy director found that everything was normal, the Celadon Technology protesters were still protesting, and the visitors were filing in. I don¡¯t see any manufacturers jointly making trouble against the exhibition this morning. It wasn¡¯t until he walked into the West District that the deputy director discovered that the best booth had actually been replaced. The big TV is still hanging there, but many of the people who watched it in the past two days have disappeared, and there are only a few people there to try it out. It meets the average standards of e3. The empty trial computer screen faces the outside, and the screen displayed on it is not "Air Combat Pioneer". The deputy director was overjoyed, but when he took a closer look, he found that the staff at the booth were not from Fuyuki Games, nor were they from Sony's manufacturers, nor did they even look Japanese. "It's strange" The deputy chief felt really strange. When he saw the four Chinese characters for "target software", he was surprised. Which company is this? The deputy chief looked closer and saw the PC logo on the hanging poster, indicating that it was a game for the PC platform. This is definitely not a game made by a Japanese manufacturer. Could it be Chinese? It seems that there are two Chinese exhibitors in the West Zone this time. Could it be that after the Chinese game was driven away, his seat was replaced by another Chinese? The deputy director thought that the little game disappeared in the West District because of his own influence, and it suddenly swelled. People who look at the target software think: I can take that game away, and I can take you away again. On the way to the Sony booth, he comforted the president of Fuyuki Games with a few words. He was full of confidence and planned to gather a group of people in the evening to protest to the exhibition authorities. Then that booth can be freed up for Fuyuki Games. The president of Fuyuki Games sighed: "I came to ask in advance this morning. In fact, Celadon Technology's game has found an agent and took the initiative to move to the Southern District." "Huh?" The deputy chief was stunned, feeling like he was punched It was all in vain. I was full of confidence just now, but now I feel discouraged. It turns out that the Chinese company left on its own initiative and had nothing to do with his little actions? When the deputy director returned to Sony's booth, he immediately heard several executives from Sony Games North America branch quietly discussing countermeasures. After Celadon Technology moved its games to the South District, it was obvious that fewer people came to the West District. How is this possible? The deputy commander didn't understand even more. It¡¯s just a small game! How come so many people come to see it? Executives are also discussing this issue. It turns out that after the exhibitions the day before yesterday and yesterday, those media have already shown the general layout of the entire e3 to the audiences of various media. The media began to receive feedback from players and knew which games their readers were more willing to pay attention to, and began to conduct special interviews and in-depth reports. The little game Wang Fulian made, for some reason, aroused the expectations of many people. Those people not only want to know the basics, but also want to get more detailed information, such as gameplay, world view, fighter types, technology upgrades, etc. There are also questions about when it will be launched. After the media got this feedback, of course they had to take action, follow the game, and go to the Southern District for interviews. In addition, id Software has started to represent this game, which is also worthy of people's attention. The sudden alliance between these two families was beyond everyone's expectations and was very newsworthy. If you go there to interview, you can not only interview Carmack, but also Wang Fulai, killing two birds with one stone. ¡°¡¡± The deputy commander heard it and felt incredible. Is there such a thing? At this time, an executive who went to inquire about the situation and just came back said: "According to the information I got, it seems that someone forced the Chinese company to go to the Southern District on the grounds that 'the game has not found an agent.'" " Unacceptable!" A white executive was angry: "If it is true, then this is absolutely unacceptable. I suggest we investigate this matter and see who did it.Protest! " "Yes. The CEO of Sony Games America Branch nodded and said, "Using such methods to damage the popularity of the Western District is a provocation to Sony!" We need to investigate this matter. " Hearing this, the deputy director felt a chill on his back and his legs were weak. When the CEO said this, he knew that he was going to be doomed soon! At this E3, thanks to Sega giving up its game console platform, Nintendo The new machine has not yet been released, and at this time of sluggishness, PS2 games dominate the Western Region. Once the popularity of the Western Region declines, Sony will suffer a lot of collateral losses! (To be continued)
