Chapter 167 Be Prepared

When Shirakawa Kaede asked him what game he wanted to play, countless thoughts flashed through Satoru Iwata's mind.

But when I think about it, a game like this is going to be on a handheld console and sold as a product.

He suddenly felt a little unconfident again. If everyone didn't like it, sales would be bleak.

Then... Iwata glanced at Shirakawa Kaede guiltily, but he couldn't let Shirakawa-kun lose everything.

As if she knew what he was thinking, Bai Chuanfeng smiled nonchalantly.

"Iwata-kun, don't be stressed. It's just a small game, just like the one we played at Tokyo University of Technology. It just needs to be fun."

What I am saying is that Satoru Iwata has always believed that games, no matter how difficult or creative they are.

It must be interesting first, and then everyone will be willing to try it.

"Okay, I'll try." Satoru Iwata cheered up again. As a student, it is not easy to have the opportunity to participate in game production.

Bai Chuanfeng nodded with satisfaction, this is right.

Future game bosses also need to be tempered to have a strong heart.

Moreover, the cost of current handheld game consoles is very low. Even if the sales volume of the first attempt is not good, Shirakawa Electric can fully afford it.

This is the main reason why Shirakawa Kaede has the confidence to explore new fields.

To put it bluntly, I still have enough money to withstand his torment.

"By the way, let's make two preparations for the first game." Bai Chuanfeng felt that since he has made up his mind to do something, he should work hard to do his best.

"Be prepared with both hands?" Not only Iwata Satoru, but also Tanimura looked confused.

"That's right." The ideas in Bai Chuanfeng's mind became clearer and clearer, "One is original and the other is transplanted."

Seeing that the two people still looked confused, Shirakawa Kaede further explained, "I will leave the original game to you."

Iwata Satoru and Tanimura both nodded to express their understanding, which is what it should be.

"As for the transplanted game..." Shirakawa Kaede thought for a while and said uncertainly, "Have you heard of "Snake"?"

He didn't know if this game was popular now, but he was sure it had already appeared.

"Is Shirakawa-kun talking about the "Snake" on the microcomputer?" Satoru Iwata was the first to react.

He is basically familiar with all computer games, and after all, he can be forced to program the games himself.

It means that he has mastered the games on the computer and is no longer interested in them.

"If Iwata-kun is talking about the game where eating food keeps growing longer, then it's right."

The game that Shirakawa Kaede plans to transplant is the famous "Snake".

Many people must be deeply impressed by it. Almost everyone has played this game or its derivatives.

Some are on the Xiaobawang game console in childhood, and some are on mobile phones in adulthood.

In short, it has almost run through the gaming careers of one or two generations.

This also shows how wide the audience and influence of "Snake" is.

At this time, Tanimura also thought of something, "This game is also available in arcades, but it is a two-player game. If it is transplanted to a handheld machine..."

"That's right." Bai Chuanfeng nodded and confirmed his idea, "We need to change it into a single-player game."

The original intention of handheld console design is to provide single-player entertainment. Games on such a platform are naturally single-player games.

"I will be responsible for copyright matters. You only need to think about how to implement it."

The copyright of this game should be in the United States, and it has even been available for several years.

But so far it has only been installed on platforms such as arcades, computers, and video games.

As for the handheld console, there is no such thing at all, which is why Shirakawa Kaede wants to transplant it.

And as far as Japan is concerned, almost few people know about this game. Because at this time, "Snake" was still slowly developing on the other side of the ocean.

For neon, there is no need to worry about freshness.

Shirakawa Kaede can also take things from my father in the United States, modify them, and turn them into neon for domestic sales.

Earning such money, Bai Chuanfeng has no psychological burden at all.

"Please give it to HAL. This kind of work is suitable for everyone to practice together." If it was just a transplant, Tanimura would feel more confident.

"Okay, HAL's first project has been approved, and the rest of the work will be left to you."

Bai Chuanfeng can't get involved in these matters, the most he can do is make suggestions.

As the saying goes, leave professional things to professionals.

After receiving the task from the major shareholder behind the scenes, not only did everyone not feel the pressure, but they were all gearing up.

After all, their interests and hobbies are the core driving force behind why they gather here.

After handing over the task, Bai Chuanfeng once again looked at the place we tentatively called the office.

It's too cramped, too low, and doesn't even have basic lighting.

Bai Chuanfeng even felt that if he stayed in such a place for a long time, his personality would become depressed.

Sure enough, when he turned around, Tanimura was looking at him hopefully.

Bai Chuanfeng smiled and said, "It's time to change HAL's office space. As for the specific location.

Let Tanimura-kun and Iwata-kun discuss it, and the financial team from Shirakawa Electric will come over in the next two days to re-formulate the relevant budget for HAL."

Now that we have acquired HAL, we still have absolute control.

So Shirakawa Kaede has no intention of letting it grow wildly, and all processes and frameworks are set up according to regular clubs.

Although he does not intervene in specific decision-making and operations, it is still necessary to standardize HAL.

Among them, finance is the top priority. He is not taken advantage of, and all matters such as budgets are handled according to the rules.

Only after hearing Shirakawa Kaede's arrangement did Tanimura remember.

Now that HAL's surname is Shirakawa, he can no longer follow the same wild path as he did before.

However, there are disadvantages as well as advantages. With strong financial support, Tanimura no longer has to worry about whether the club can continue to operate.

Those computer equipment that I have been thinking about for a long time and are reluctant to buy are no longer a luxury.

Thinking of this, Tanimura himself became a little geared up. When you have someone to take advantage of, you are most motivated to work.

Seeing everyone's expressions of excitement, Bai Chuanfeng also encouraged again.

"Everyone, welcome to HAL. I know many of my classmates are working part-time now, but it doesn't matter.

The reason why we can get together today is because we have common hobbies, including myself.

HAL's door will always be open to everyone, and please believe that HAL's future will definitely exceed your imagination.

I guarantee this as the president of Shirakawa Electric."

This passage was so sincere and domineering that everyone in the room couldn't help but applaud.

Come to think of it, after all, Shirakawa Electric is definitely a backer for HAL.

Today, I unexpectedly gained a sub-club and recruited a large number of future talents. Bai Chuanfeng is also very satisfied.

Despite their young age, these young people are basically students from several nearby universities.

Although they are working part-time now, after graduation, they will be HAL's software and hardware talents, and they will be trained from scratch.

Bai Chuanfeng, who felt that she had gained a lot, saw that the main things had been done, and was ready to say goodbye and leave.

These tech geeks, let them play freely.

"Iwata-kun, if you have any questions in the future, you can call me." Before leaving, Shirakawa made a special note.

This sentence was spoken not only to Satoru Iwata, but also to Tanimura.

On the one hand, he expressed his respect for Satoru Iwata, and on the other hand, he also told Tanimura that the club was not completely out of his sight.

Seeing Satoru Iwata nodding his head in agreement, Tanimura was thoughtful.

Shirakawa Kaede left with Asuka Kobayashi without any explanation.

After exiting the apartment door and walking back, Asuka Kobayashi couldn't help but feel curious.

"Shirakawa-kun, are you really planning to make a game console?"

"Of course" Bai Chuanfeng said matter-of-factly.

The tasks have been assigned, can we still have a holiday?

"But..." Asuka Kobayashi always felt that this was an unfamiliar field.

Given the current situation of Shirakawa Electric, it should be deeply involved in audio technology.
