The gathering of so many game development companies, game equipment manufacturers, and media people here is enough to show Xueleshan’s status in the game industry.

Wired magazine does not focus on the gaming industry, but Kevin Kelly knows that the PC games represented by Sierra and the digital game model of Sierra’s online game platform have changed the entire gaming industry!

In the past, game developers basically focused on the two major console platforms, Sony and Nintendo. You need to look at the faces of these two companies.

If you offend them, especially Nintendo's overlord clause, exclusive games, high share revenue, etc., then it is very likely that you will have to go through a lot of hard work to develop a game, and it will not be able to be used on Nintendo or Sony consoles at all.

A game manufacturer went bankrupt.

Kevin Kelly is familiar with the game industry. What he sees is not how many game manufacturers Xueleshan has invested in and acquired, nor what other masterpieces Blizzard has developed, but that PC games represented by Xueleshan have vaguely become new games.

Platform signs.

Kevin Kelly doesn't dare to say what the future structure of the game industry will be like, but he is certain of one thing. The era when console games were dominated by one player has passed. In the future game industry, PC games and console games will be different.

It is likely that they will stand on the same footing, or even surpass console games. After all, there are many more PC Internet users than console users!

What we need to see now is when PC computer performance can catch up with faster computing chips and more powerful graphics cards. Once these things reach the same level as consoles, Kevin Kelly feels that only then will Snow Leshan be able to catch up.

Ushering in its true peak, PC users alone can challenge Nintendo and Sony.

Kevin Kelly glanced at John Carmack. Not only game manufacturers in America and Europe respected Carmack, but many game manufacturers in Japan also had a very special attitude towards Carmack.

Mark affected not only American and European games, but also Japanese and Japanese games, which had to start developing 3D games.

After looking at Carmack for a few times, Kevin Kelly took out a sticky note and wrote down a few things on it. He felt that Song Yang recruited Carmack not just to study some game engines!

Wired magazine publishes some special issues every year, summarizing the technology industry and gaming industry, and then making some predictions

Kevin Kelly is going to make some predictions about the future of the gaming industry in Wired Magazine. Everything seen here today and recorded at the TGA Awards Ceremony will make Kevin Kelly included in his predictions.

, give a new evaluation to the Snow Mountain game.

Just as he was thinking about it, there was a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall. When Kevin Kelly raised his head, he saw a group of people walking in, attracting the attention of everyone in the banquet hall. Kevin Kelly also saw it.

An "old acquaintance".

The originally noisy banquet hall suddenly became quiet when Song Yang, Ken Williams and others appeared. "Xueleshan, welcome everyone!"

Ken: Williams raised his wine glass high and said to the people in the hall. Representatives from the companies in the Sierra Series promised not to embarrass their boss. Representatives from Ubisoft, Activision, EA, Sony and other companies also promised

He raised his glass, in front of so many people, if he didn't give Williams, the president of Sierra Mountain, face, he would basically be his mortal enemy from now on.

In the banquet hall, many game manufacturers seemed to be listening to Williams speaking on the stage, but their eyes inevitably turned to Song Yang aside.

Minoru Arakawa, the president of Nintendo North America who came on behalf of Nintendo and the son-in-law of Nintendo president Hiroshi Yamauchi, looked at Song Yang closely.

People outside the gaming industry gave Williams their praise and applause, praising Williams as the "giant" who changed the gaming industry. But as an insider, Arakawa knew who Nintendo's real opponent was!

In Minoru Arakawa's eyes, Ken: Williams and Roberta are capable, but to challenge Hiroshi Yamauchi is nonsense.

If the two of them were really that capable, they wouldn't have been kicked out immediately after Xueleshan was acquired by CUC International.

The real change in Xueleshan, Arakawa Minoru believed, was after the acquisition by icq. This matter, decided by Song Yang, was what changed everything in Xueleshan.

Arakawa Minoru even suspected that Song Yang had made all the decisions made by Xueleshan in the past two years. Otherwise, it would be difficult to explain the past performance of the Williams couple.

What is the Game Dawn Plan, which supports small and medium-sized game manufacturers, creates a Snow Mountain online game platform, acquires Sega, enters Japanese pachinko parlors, etc.

It's hard to explain that these antelopes' unconventional movements of hanging horns were made by Williams, but they look very similar to Song Yang's!

Not only Minoru Arakawa, but also other game manufacturers, game agents, and media people all looked at Song Yang intentionally or unintentionally.

They don't know who decided for such a big change in Snow Leshan, but one thing is that all the game manufacturers present know that the person who can decide everything in Snow Leshan is not Ken Williams, but Song Yang!

Song Yang's arrival brought game manufacturers and partners from the Snow Mountain series to Song Yang. Song Yang had a glass of wine with the Blizzard trio, Carmack and others.

"Director Bruno!"

Song Yang had just had a few words with the Hauser brothers to discuss having "Grand Theft Auto" appear on the booth of the Grand Theater tomorrow, when he suddenly heard a sound.

Looking at the unfamiliar Asian face in front of him, Song Yang couldn't remember where he had seen him.

"Miru Arakawa, President of Nintendo North America!"

Williams came off the stage and whispered in Song Yang's ear that he had been dealing with Arakawa for many years.

"President Arakawa Minoru!" Song Yang replied to Arakawa Minoru.

Arakawa Minoru looked at Song Yang and said, "President Hiroshi Yamauchi asked me to say hello to Director Bruno on his behalf. Unfortunately, he can't come in person this time. However, President Hiroshi Yamauchi thinks there will be a day to meet Director Bruno."

!”

Listening to these words with a hint of "warning", Song Yang could tell that the unmasked Yamauchi Pu seemed to dislike him and Xueleshan.

"Definitely, I also think that there will be a day when I can meet President Hiroshi Yamauchi!"

Song Yang smiled and said to Minoru Arakawa, Nintendo is now very powerful in the game industry, but this does not mean that the era of Hiroshi Yamauchi will continue.

"Send hello to President Hiroshi Yamauchi for me and ask him to... take care of himself. I will definitely pay him a visit!"

Just as he was about to turn around, Minoru Arakawa's face turned pale. Song Yang didn't mean to ridicule, but just told him one thing, that is, Hiroshi Yamauchi was... old.

Arakawa actually heard more interesting things. Even if Yamauchi Hiroshi is in good health, he can survive for a few more years. When Yamauchi Hiroshi retires, Nintendo is destined to experience a period of turmoil. It is still unclear where he, Yamauchi's son-in-law, will go in the future.

I don’t know, Song Yang will definitely have a chance to meet Hiroshi Yamauchi, but it’s hard to say what Minoru Arakawa will be doing by then.

After glancing at Minoru Arakawa's leaving figure, Song Yang drank a glass of wine with Fatty G and others, then took a glass of wine and walked towards a person.

"Editor-in-Chief Kevin, long time no see!"

Kevin Kelly, who was writing something on a note, suddenly heard a sound. When he looked up and saw Song Yang, a smile appeared on Kevin Kelly's face.

“Here’s to the genius of the Internet!”

Kevin Kelly had a glass of wine with Song Yang. Looking at Song Yang in front of him, Kevin Kelly couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Holding the wine glass, Kevin Kelly shook his arms a few times, "I have to say, the Internet

What an amazing industry!"

I still remember the scene when Song Yang met him for the first time. At that time, Song Yang came all the way to the door of Wired Magazine’s newspaper office in San Francisco just to meet Kevin Kelly and let Wired Magazine write for Song Yang.

Kevin Kelly has almost witnessed the changes in Song Yang over the past few years. He and Wired magazine have never stopped reporting on Song Yang. But thinking back to those days, and looking at Song Yang in front of him now, Kevin Kelly
