Chapter 11 For the sake of material! 【Seeking the Moon
Once a plan is made, it is implementation.
The main purpose of Takahashi's return is to support the team and tell all the relevant personnel who are carrying out this project to pay attention to this project.
In another world line, there was a saying in an animation, "Faith is magic."
Although Takahashi does not think that having confidence alone can create miracles, confidence is indeed a very useful additive.
The first version of the handheld machine engineering machine was made. After testing, although there were several small problems encountered, and there were even more small problems. However, it also laid the foundation for subsequent work.
After confirming that the hardware parameters will not change again, a development machine was developed.
The core of the development machine is a "handheld machine" with exactly the same hardware as the handheld machine.
Although using a large computer like Wanhu, the method of simulating handheld consoles is more flexible. Even if you don’t play handheld console games, you can still make other games.
However, such a cost is too high. Not every development team can afford it.
After a series of fine work, the development machine design is completed. You can use the development machine to design the game.
In addition to sending ten Japanese mail to ten Japanese households, they also sent thirty American mail to ten Japanese households.
The ten handheld machine development machines that were mailed to Wanhu Japan will only be used within Wanhu and will not leak out. The thirty units that were mailed to the United States will be scattered to the thirty small teams that emerged at the game developer conference.
Today, Wanhu has become more localized after launching the Tetris handheld console and the Game of Destiny.
What exactly is localization?
Different people have different answers.
Some people believe that localization is to translate a game from this language to that language.
But Takahashi, or Wanhu, is confirmed to be.
The so-called localization not only requires language localization, but also content localization.
Even if the game produced by foreigners is made with their own themes, it is made with the national style in the eyes of foreigners.
Although this kind of "other" is unique and can be tasted easily occasionally, it is not as good as the people's understanding of the tastes of their own people.
Although Japan is still the country ranked first in the 10,000 households, the United States or North America is indeed the largest market in the hands of 10,000 households.
Japan's market revenue is large because it was developed early and mature. Just like a mature female sister, although she is charming, she has no potential to continue to develop.
Although the United States was plowed by Atari, it was still a virgin land after all.
Whether it is Wanhu, Nintendo, Sega, or other manufacturers, even if everyone is working hard, they still cannot fill the North American market.
To satisfy this American girl with big stomach, you not only need Japanese oriental games, but also hamburgers and fries that suit the girl's taste.
Wanhu’s current strategy is to let local game designers in the United States make games that match the local flavor of the United States.
Although there are only thirteen development teams that have signed a memorandum of cooperation, Takahashi believes that thirty sets of development machines will definitely be used.
Never underestimate the enthusiasm of American game designers.
However, it is more regrettable that there are very few game developers and studios who have agreed to the employment and acquisition requests of tens of thousands of households, only one is pitiful.
Nick was also very frustrated by this, but Takahashi advised him to continue his efforts and not be intimidated by the little difficulty in front of him.
There are five development machines left, Takahashi stayed in China and within Wanhu. Except for one he used to make something by himself, the rest was left to Wanhu employees who were interested in making games for handheld consoles to play freely.
Even if the quality of the games they make is not up to standard, they may never be released and released. They will not become shining coins.
However, it can be turned into valuable experience.
Wanhu is not rich now, but this little sunk cost can still be borne.
In this way, a "seeking advertisement" for handheld machine development machines was posted on the bulletin board of Wanhu's factory.
……………………
Wang Qiang's name is unique, and his person is also such a person.
Study step by step, work step by step, get married step by step, have children step by step. Being kicked into the garbage dump of history step by step. Being transformed into a "useless person".
Even when he entered Wanhu, he followed the steps.
He looked at the announcement posted on the notice board step by step, and then returned home step by step.
When he saw his son holding a broken book, he cursed unhappily.
"You guys! Can't you study hard? Why do you have to read these messy things? What's the use of this broken martial arts novel? You can make you understand martial arts after reading it?"
"You! What do you know! This is martial arts!" The children of 15, 6 and 7 were in the rebellious period.
Since the whole family moved to ten thousand households, the economic conditions have been getting better and better day by day. As a child of ten thousand households, he has also been able to access more "degenerate Western capitalist works."
Martial arts novels and Hong Kong movies are representatives of these works.
Wang Qiang's son Wang Xiaohua became addicted to these depraved works, trying to fill his life with illusory things.
"Melon peel! Look for a fight!" Wang Qiang, as his father, took off his shoes and sucked at Wang Xiaohua.
"I...you!...hum!" Wang Xiaohua held his book and ran out of the house.
Wanhu's residential area is so big that he plans to avoid his "annoying" father and read the new martial arts novel in his hand.
How could I enjoy seeing Ximen Qing fight against the White Bone Spirit?
Unlike other places in China, the street lights of ten thousand households will light up once the dark day and will not go out for a night.
This is not because ten thousand households do not understand environmental protection and will only waste it. It is because ten thousand households implement a four-shift working system, and many employees have to run around in the dark.
Although it was winter and the weather outside was not very warm, Wang Xiaohua found a corridor and crawled in. Taking advantage of the warm geothermal heat and the yellow lights, he continued to read his martial arts novels.
Occasionally, if someone goes upstairs and downstairs, he will jump up by him just after he gets downstairs or just pushes open the door. Apart from that, no one will disturb him.
But my stomach is getting hungry...
Although spiritual food can relieve hunger, it cannot be eaten as a meal.
Wang Xiaohua, wrapped in a military coat, stood up and decided to run to the cafeteria.
He just stood up and felt dizzy. Before he could stand firmly, a piece of paper was placed on his face.
"Develop a machine? Make a game?"
Chapter completed!
