Tokyo Video Game Tycoon: Chapter 1160 Video games are the common language of the world
Chapter 1160 Video games are the common language of the world
Zhu Youxing just smiled and didn't respond positively.
There is no way to say this kind of thing clearly. Zhu Youxing has the experience of the previous life, and has many excellent video games in the previous life as the basis.
He couldn't fully claim the credit for himself, so he didn't directly respond to Hayakawa Ueto's exclamation, but responded with a smile.
But in Hayakawa Ueto's view, this is more like a pride of being a creator.
If it's an ordinary creator, Ueto Hayakawa doesn't think much of it.
There is no shortage of geniuses in this world, but people like Zhu Youxing who continue to explode their talents in an industry are quite rare, and such a person may not necessarily be born in decades.
Such a person is worthy of Hayakawa Ueto's admiration.
Below, the Japanese national team enters the venue, and the music of Dragon Quest ends at the right time, followed by the next country.
Each country has its own BGM. Sayuki Ono is also responsible for the arrangement of this music. It can be said that he spent a lot of brain cells and time in order to make many songs conform to the styles of different countries.
For this reason, he and his team worked on the research all night long, and even though he was already in his seventies, he still worked so hard. He really cared about the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games.
The entrance music of the second country is also very sporty, which is the proof of the hero from Monster Hunter.
The moment the music sounded, at least one-fifth of the audience in the venue responded fiercely.
Many people in the venue are video game players, or it can be said that video games have penetrated into thousands of households, especially the popular culture such as video games and animations used as a promotional gimmick for the Olympic Games, which attracts the attention of these people even more .
At least two-fifths of the venue will be anime and game lovers.
The moment the hero's certificate sounded, many players immediately recalled the unbearable memory.
In the beginning, they were a group of hunters who were chased and beaten by monsters.
They were ignorant and didn't know how to face the huge and very oppressive monster.
Even a wild boar king who seems to be quite simple is powerful and scary.
But they were patient.
If you fail once, try again.
If you fail twice, try again for the third time.
Monster Hunter has cultivated the threshold for many players to fight against difficult games.
Gradually, players also began to enjoy the fun brought by this difficult game.
It is indeed very depressing when oppressed, and it will be very frustrating to face a powerful monster that cannot be defeated.
But after failing again and again, finally defeating this huge monster, the sense of accomplishment and refreshment it brings is unparalleled.
Only players who have personally experienced it can feel the fun.
This kind of thing is incomprehensible to others.
You can't empathize? Then play and watch, you will understand for yourself.
At the scene, many players reacted fiercely, and many viewers who also watched the live broadcast also reacted fiercely.
They don't have the opportunity to watch the Olympic Games live, and there is no problem watching the live broadcast.
But when they saw that many familiar BGM sounded at the beginning, they regretted it a little.
If they bought tickets at that time and went to watch the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, they must be quite handsome.
The appearance of video games and animation in the Olympic Games is already a symbol and a symbol in itself.
It symbolizes that the society has fully recognized this popular culture and no longer regards it as a marginal subcultural industry.
Games and animation will be as famous cultural industries as film and television.
Many practitioners shed tears of excitement when they saw this scene.
But there are also some people who will dismiss it, or even... resent it.
The resentful person was staring at the TV gloomyly at this time, only the TV was on in the whole room, there were wine bottles scattered around, and the space was also filled with an unpleasant smell.
"That guy will definitely kick out all cultural industries other than games from the opening and closing ceremonies. Absolutely. I have warned the people in the industry committee long ago, but they didn't listen."
This person was cursing, but at the same time he spoke his own judgment very firmly.
He had an identity before, and he was one of the three directors of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games.
At that time, his status was quite high, and he was backed by chaebol capital, which made him even more unscrupulous.
Later, he followed some people and started doing some things to enrich himself.
This is actually quite normal, at least in his view it is a very normal thing.
Who wouldn't fill their pockets?
Anyone can do it, he doesn't believe that no one can't.
He is just following the mainstream of society.
And as far as he knows, there are many people in the Japanese Olympic Organizing Committee who are more arrogant than him.
He can only be regarded as a small fight.
It's just that he didn't expect that he would meet a hard stump, such a wonderful company as Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
This company forcibly intervened in the preparation and production of the opening and closing ceremonies, allowing their directors to control the overall situation.
Moreover, it is really unimaginable that this person actually succeeded. Why do the people behind the scenes want to make concessions?
He didn't know the interest entanglement behind it, he only knew that he was kicked out of the game very simply.
Later, he was quickly abandoned by the chaebol capital behind him. Even though he had a chaebol relative as a backer, he was still kicked out.
He fell from a high and mighty figure to the mundane all at once.
In the future, he was not only kicked out of the Olympic preparations, but he wanted to return to his old job of making cartoons, but the industry began to resist.
A good friend who has a good relationship with him told him that Youxing Electronic Entertainment did this.
Youxing Electronic Entertainment has already established a certain position in the animation industry, because now Youxing Electronic Entertainment is quite willing to spend money to make cartoons, which gives directors a lot of room to play, which has led to many animation companies liking Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
And Zhu Youxing is boycotting this director. Even if these production companies did not have Zhu Youxing's instigation, they would simply cut off contact with him, causing him to lose his original job.
"See, it's still the music of video games. This guy's selfishness is really too serious!"
The third country is on the stage, and the BGM is the signature music from Street Fighter. Those players who like Street Fighter are excited.
The director is even more determined that this opening ceremony will be a one-man show of video games, such as anime and traditional Japanese culture, all thrown out, making video games the only protagonist, and making the Olympics a promotional machine for video games.
Seeing this, the director firmly believes that Youxing Electronic Entertainment must have collected huge profits from it.
Every piece of music is from Youxing Electronic Entertainment, so the licensing fee is definitely not a small amount.
In addition, Youxing Electronic Entertainment is in a dominant position, so the price is not what they say?
Kicking myself out of the director team for the opening and closing ceremonies is nothing more than letting the bigger rats occupy the propaganda mouthpiece.
This also made the resentment and unwillingness in his eyes even worse.
He couldn't bear it any longer, so he picked up the phone beside him and dialed a number.
"Hi, hello, is this the self-inspection department of the Olympic Organizing Committee? I'm **, I want to report!"
"What do you ask me to report? I want to report that Youxing Electronic Entertainment is enriching their own pockets. They mixed too much private goods from their video game industry in the opening ceremony, which is far from the original fairness and justice of the Olympic Games. I want to report them..."
Beep beep.
There was a sound of hanging up the phone.
The director's expression froze.
Hurrah.
"asshole!"
His expression was a little hideous.
The person who hung up on the other end of the phone had a strange expression.
"Hi, who's calling?"
Beside him is a member of the Olympic Preparatory Committee with the same identity.
“A guy reported that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment was enriching himself, saying that he collected huge music licensing fees through the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games…”
Everyone who heard it looked at the person holding the phone, and question marks filled their heads
? ? ?
"Is this person a fool?"
The person who answered the phone shrugged: "Yeah, you must be a fool."
Someone laughed out loud: "Doesn't he read the news and newspapers? I don't know how long the news and newspapers have reported on the opening and closing ceremonies."
"Who knows, it might be a guy who is decadent every day and only knows how to blame others."
The news and newspaper content they mentioned is an interview news of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
This interview focuses on the discussion of the possible benefits that Yuxing Electronic Entertainment may obtain in the Olympic Games.
There are also some self-inspection agencies in the Olympic Preparatory Committee.
They will publicly say that they are reviewing the use of Olympic funds, but in fact the existence of this organization is almost equivalent to nothing.
Their own positions are not enough for those who occupy the mouthpiece position, so at most it is just a decoration.
However, they also made a little achievement, a result that can be handed over to the public.
That is, they disclosed in detail the use of funds for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games.
It ranges from the cost of a large-scale scene mechanical prop to as small as a screw.
And there is also a breakdown of the fees for the authorized use of music, film and television images, game images and screens for the opening and closing ceremonies.
Many of them are licensing fees for purchasing animation and traditional Japanese culture.
But in the list behind these licensing fees, there are a lot of very eye-catching numbers.
Average licensing fee for video game music: $100
Average video game image licensing fee: $100
In Japan, copyright is very important.
Even if a commoner wants to sing a song in a karaoke hall in Japan, he needs to pay a copyright fee for the song.
This kind of thing adds up to a lot, and it will make singers and other people in the cultural and entertainment industry earn a lot of money.
The music of video games is also the main income of many copyrights.
Video games have produced too many classic BGMs, and each piece of music can have a social impact worldwide.
The authorization fee is even more difficult to estimate.
If the music is played live at the level of the Olympic Games, the licensing fee is not exaggerated from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars per song.
Some people estimated that the music of Super Mario should be authorized to be worth more than 100,000 US dollars.
However, on the bill for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, there were a lot of eye-catching one hundred dollars.
Each song is a symbolic charge of one hundred dollars.
Each character image is also a symbolic charge of one hundred dollars.
is not 0 because it would be too sorry for the creator himself.
At the same time, Zhu Youxing's face is indeed great.
The BGM and images of many games are not entirely from Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
There are also game character images and music from Brown Entertainment, Su Rui Electronics and even Mick Fu's family.
Before the Olympics, Mickford didn't bother with Youxing Electronic Entertainment any more.
Because this is something that benefits more than hatred, Myron Keith is also very generous, agreeing to allow Youxing Electronic Entertainment to authorize them to produce the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games at a price of one hundred dollars per song and per image, which shows that Symbol of world unity.
There are also many images of small and medium-sized game companies from all over the world, and each license price is one hundred dollars.
The total licensing fees related to these video games shall not exceed one hundred thousand dollars.
It can be regarded as the most economical place.
If you have to be serious, the money may be multiplied ten times and a hundred times, which is not an exaggeration.
At that time, it will be a billion yen pocket.
But now it only needs tens of millions of yen, which is almost the basic annual salary of a Japanese white-collar worker.
At the beginning of this data disclosure, some people questioned the authenticity of the data.
However, all stakeholders soon issued relevant announcements, confirming that the licensing fees for video game-related music and images are indeed only one hundred dollars.
Children are not deceived.
Then many people were silent, and then there was a lot of praise on the Internet.
Video game players are especially happy.
Because they really experienced the atmosphere that the players in the world belong to one family from this.
It is the same as Zhu Youxing once promised.
He firmly believes that video games in this world are a common language, the players in the world are one family, and everyone can have fun from video games.
With the good example of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, the public’s opposition to the preparations for the Olympic Games has also been greatly reduced, which has made the ideological work of the Japanese government better implemented and reduced a lot of pressure on the Japanese government.
The Japanese government wants to thank Youxing Electronic Entertainment in turn.
If there is no Youxing Electronic Entertainment, troubles will definitely be inevitable, and Youxing Electronic Entertainment can solve their problems and worries.
When you look back, you will give Yuxing Electronic Entertainment more policy preference.
Anyway, these preferential policies are not paid from their own hands, and they don’t feel bad when they use them.
Giving Yuxing Electronic Entertainment preferential treatment will not be questioned.
As for Youxing Electronic Entertainment itself, their original intention was simply to disdain the licensing fee for the opening and closing ceremonies.
How much does this make? At most tens of millions of dollars.
They will earn more than this if they hold a game sale at random. It is more valuable to use the Olympics to make money than to use the Olympics to make money.
So, the person who answered the phone thought the guy who called to report was an idiot.
Don’t watch the news at all?
This is all obvious on the Internet. He is obviously a guy who doesn't care about world affairs. This kind of guy will be eliminated by the world sooner or later.
The director smashed the bottle angrily. He firmly believed that Youxing Electronic Entertainment was definitely not that generous, but he had nowhere to complain.
And just as he was smashing the wine bottle, a piece of music he was very familiar with appeared behind him.
It was the music of a classic animation movie he had seen in his childhood.
Accompanied by music, it is the entrance music for a country to enter the venue.
The movement of his hands stopped in mid-air, and he stared blankly at the TV screen.
Muttering to himself: How is it possible.
