MTLNOVEL Chapter 1269 Internet Games!
1990 1 Month 29 Day.
The third day of the new year.
Monday.
While many people are still immersed in the Spring Festival atmosphere, Yang Ming habitually gets up early.
After finishing breakfast, taking Yingla with her, Alina took the car back to the Empire Group Building headquarters to go to work.
After arriving at the Empire State Building and taking the elevator to the chairman's office upstairs, Lin Xiuzhi and He Chaoluo were already here.
"Good morning, boss." Lin Xiuzhi greeted.
"morning."
He Chaoluo had already started making coffee for Yang Ming.
When Yang Ming stood at the window and looked out, after a while, he returned to his seat and sat down. He Chaoluo put the cup of coffee in front of Yang Ming.
Yang Ming picked it up, took a few sips, and said, "Lin Xiuzhi, please inform Nisikado Tomohiro and Miyamoto Shigeru to come up and see me."
"Yes, boss."
Lin Xiuzhi called the office landlines of Tomohiro Nisikado and Shigeru Miyamoto respectively.
About ten minutes later.
Tomohiro Nisikado came down from upstairs first.
After a while, Miyamoto Shigeru also came up.
Both of them are Japanese, but the longer they stay in Xiangjiang, the more they feel that they are very different from before.
"boss."
"You guys sit down and have a cup of coffee first. I'll talk to you about something important later."
In the past few years, Empire Games has been releasing many games, including stand-alone versions, which are best-selling all over the world.
Of course, these two people know very well that those game structures are all given by the boss, and they just play according to the game background and game structure.
However, Yang Ming knows that with the emergence of web pages and browsers, the global Internet era will soon arrive. At that time, the era of stand-alone games will gradually shift to the Internet.
Of course, many people may not have reacted to this.
Yang Ming wanted to prepare for this.
Tomohiro Nisikado and Shigeru Miyamoto thanked Lin Xiuzhi for the coffee they made.
The two of them were enjoying coffee there while thinking about the important things the boss said.
Of course, as for Dongyang, they already know that Dongyang may be almost finished.
When the Toyo real estate bubble and stock market bubble were punctured, Nisikado Tomohiro and Miyamoto Shigeru felt that it would be difficult for Toyo to develop as before.
After half an hour.
Yang Ming and the two of them went to the study room next door.
Now Yang Ming, Tomohiro Nisikado, Shigeru Miyamoto, He Chaoluo, Ying La, Alina are here, and Lin Xiuzhi is still in the chairman's office to answer the phone.
"Last year, did you pay attention to the webpage and browser news released by the Xiangjiang Science and Technology Park?"
Web page?
browser?
Tomohiro Nishikado and Shigeru Miyamoto really paid attention.
Judging from the reports at the time, regarding the prospects of the Internet, these two people knew that if that era came, the world would really be different in the future.
"Boss, I'm paying attention." Nisikado Tomohiro said.
Shigeru Miyamoto said he was also paying attention.
"So what impact do you think this will have on video games?"
Impact on video games?
First it was arcade games, then home game consoles, and now it is still dominated by arcade games and home game consoles. Especially after the emergence of the Imperial Group's Famicom, it almost monopolized the world's home game consoles.
And those games are basically stand-alone games, which are played through home game consoles and game cards.
However, next, the emergence of the global Internet also means the emergence of Internet games.
"Internet gaming is coming."
Tomohiro Nisikado and Shigeru Miyamoto are both very powerful people. As soon as they heard that Internet games were about to appear, they immediately knew what it meant.
In the past, all games were stand-alone games, which meant that a stand-alone game console could be played by at most one or two people.
However, Internet games are different. They can be played by multiple people, or even thousands of players.
There is no doubt that this will bring more players and wealth.
"Boss, this Internet game?"
"Of course, Internet games are not only related to games, but also to network broadband, servers, etc."
In fact, with the advent of Internet games, he felt that he was getting closer and closer to the era of Yang Ming's previous life.
Tomohiro Nisikado and Shigeru Miyamoto were even more excited when they heard it.
At this time, Yang Ming thought of Internet games such as "Warcraft" and "Legend".
When thinking of "Warcraft", Yang Ming also thought of Blizzard Entertainment.
In 1991, three graduates of UCLA University in China, Mike Mowaimi, Alan Adhan, and Frank Pierce, met because of a coincidental computer password JOE (stranger). After graduation, the three jointly founded Silicon. with Synapse Corporation. With US$4 in development funds and 4 months, he developed a game called "RPM Racing" for the Super Nintendo.
A year later, the first major production released on the Super Nintendo platform was launched; "The Lost Vikings".
"Superman: Survival", which landed on the SFC platform in 1994, was the first game released under the name of Blizzard.
In 1994, it changed its name to Blizzard and launched many games such as "Warcraft" series, "StarCraft" series, "Diablo" series, "Warcraft", "Hearthstone", "Heroes of the Storm" and "Overwatch". A series of works, these games have been included in multiple e-sports events.
Among them, for Yang Ming's previous life, the most famous and representative games of the Internet era were "Warcraft", "StarCraft" and "Diablo" from Blizzard Entertainment. Basically, many players have them. been touched.
Today, Blizzard Entertainment has not yet been established, and the three founders may still have not graduated from college.
However, Yang Ming is ready to develop those three epoch-making games in advance.
Yang Ming often played Warcraft in his previous life and was very familiar with the story background and game structure of Warcraft.
In other words, last year, he was basically preparing for these three games.
In addition to writing out the story backgrounds and game structures of these three games, and then gradually improving them.
Of course, these will be left to Tomohiro Nisikado and Shigeru Miyamoto to handle, and there will be a huge game research team to conduct research.
"I am preparing to launch three large-scale games for the next Internet game. This is the story background and structure of the game. You can take a look first."
Tomohiro Nishikado and Shigeru Miyamoto hurriedly took it.
Among them, Tomohiro Nisikado got the game story background of "Warcraft".
There are nearly 10,000 words, and they are all in English.
However, Tomohiro Nisikado's English is good, but he may not understand some proper nouns.
However, from the perspective of the entire story, it is generally a Western fantasy. Moreover, the background of this story is very grand. At first glance, it looks like a multiplayer game, that is to say, an Internet game.
You can also play the stand-alone version of the game, but the stand-alone version is certainly not as exciting as multiplayer.
"Boss, this story is too grand, and I think it has a Western style."
Western checkered?
This is originally produced by Blizzard Entertainment in M country, and of course it is in a Western style.
This is indeed very different from the previous stand-alone mini-games from Toyo.
