Chapter 472 Carnival Imagination
471
Zhu Yuxing's office is big enough, even if five or six hundred people have a meeting together, there is no problem. After all, the entire floor is his own.
All the people in the middle and senior positions in the company came here.
Before they came, they already knew what Zhu Yuxing was going to announce, but they still looked with anticipation.
"Everyone, you must now know what this year means for our company?"
Hayasawa Airi said loudly without hesitation, "Of course it's the tenth anniversary of the company. Thinking about the ten years I've been in the company, I should really dedicate my entire youth here."
Others also nodded, and many of them showed emotion.
Many of them have been with this company for at least five years, and everyone has developed feelings for this company, just like a real family.
This is also due to the gentle management method that Zhu Yuxing has always pursued. Of course, this is also based on the premise of the very good benefits of the entire company, and it is also the result of the efforts of these people.
The rapid growth of the company is also a harvest for them, regardless of money or status, as well as the satisfaction of the spiritual world.
Zhu Youxing nodded with a smile: "Yes, at the end of last year, I had already started to arrange preparations for the tenth anniversary celebration, and today is the moment for me to make a decision, and I will roughly organize the entire celebration. Let’s talk about the process, as for the details, it will be up to you to decide.”
"detail?"
Everyone was a little confused.
They didn't expect this.
Are there any details that we need to decide for ourselves?
Isn’t it just to broadcast a movie, then invite some well-known musicians, actors, etc. to appear in some shows, and finally announce the end of the show.
What other flower heads can there be?
Seeing everyone's puzzled appearance, Zhu Yuxing knew that they obviously hadn't thought so much.
I just can give them a good lesson and tell them how to really celebrate.
Zhu Yuxing said to the crowd: "The celebration I want to hold is not just the kind of celebration that I want to formalize. I prefer to call it a 'carnival', a carnival event that looks at all players."
Carnival?
This is easy to understand.
The national celebrations of some countries are in the form of carnivals, in which countless people participate, and the atmosphere is very lively.
But hold a carnival about video games, how should this be held?
Nobody knows.
The BlizzCon in the previous life also accumulated experience from holding it again and again, and finally reached its peak in 2016 and 2017.
It was a really good year.
"In simple terms, it can be equivalent to a super-large exhibition only for our company. This time we will not only have a small venue in the exhibition, this time I will also prepare two venues."
Zhu Yuxing took out the map directly from the side.
The address of the carnival prepared before has been marked on the map.
That is a very large stadium in Tokyo that once hosted world-class events.
It also seems that there are plans to renovate it once in the future, and then prepare for a possible future Olympic Games.
"This stadium will be our home ground. I plan to hold an e-sports event here. This event will be an official event that belongs to us. If possible, I even hope that the country can be used as a distinction, no longer With the name of the club, I'd like to call it the Video Game World Cup."
Video Game World Cup? !
Everyone's eyes widened.
This is something they never dared to think about before.
World Cup.
This is a fairly long event.
is one of the most famous games in football.
Its name is almost comparable to the Olympic Games.
Take Yuxing intends to directly elevate e-sports competitions to the same level as well-known traditional sports events.
This is really a very radical act.
But the developers who participated in the two classic e-sports games, Street Fighter and Starcraft, were very excited.
This is a self-developed game, and the self-developed game may become a world-class game in the future. Is there anything more proud of this?
"I am willing to hold this event with the highest standard, and I have some new ideas about e-sports, which can be discussed in detail in the future, and then, in addition to the main venue of the e-sports event, also With this place, I plan to use it as a carnival for players."
Take Yusei picked up a pen and drew a circle on an open space near the gymnasium.
"I plan to negotiate with the government, temporarily borrow this land, and then hold a carnival. I can handle this with the government, but the content of the carnival needs to be left to you to decide."
"Leave it to us? What exactly do you leave it to us?" Someone asked.
"Of course it's what you are best at. You all have plans for future game development, and you can also hold some interview shows in the carnival to talk with players about your ideas about game development. You can also talk about it. What you guys think about each of the game characters, those are really interesting things."
Take Yusei began to give them a good description of all the details about the carnival.
These details are enough to make them think of the picture for the first time.
They sat on the stage and talked about the ideals of video games and some directions about their future game making.
"But President, didn't you say before that if a game is not developed to a certain level, it is best not to publish it?"
To this question, Zhu Yuxing answered bluntly: "Didn't I say it too, it's better not to announce it, but it's not absolutely not to announce it. In the past, our game development cycle was relatively short, so we did almost the same thing. It is reasonable to promote a good game, but now, with the lengthening of the game development cycle, slow promotion is one of the easiest ways to arouse players’ interest.”
In fact, this can also be called drawing a pie for the players.
But as long as the rhythm is well controlled, this flatbread will be extremely sweet.
A 3A game in later generations will be developed for three to five years, or even seven or eight years. If there is no news from the beginning to the end, it will affect the publicity effect of the game.
In Zhu Yuxing's view, the original 2077 publicity was actually very appropriate, but unfortunately this game did not complete the content they promised in the end, and finally led to the collapse of word of mouth, which has to be called a very big regret.
But there is also a reason that the developers of 2077 must be responsible for the shareholders. If the game is delayed until it is fully completed and then released, those shareholders are expected to jump, which is the result of being clamped by capital.
But Zhu Yuxing doesn't have to be responsible for anyone, so he doesn't have to set a game between releases, when he is satisfied with it, and when it will be released, isn't it great.
