Before Hayakawa Ueto became the president of Surui Electronics, he had basically given up on direct competition with Takeyusei.
On the one hand, the internal funds provided by the company are not much, and what he can do is actually limited. In addition, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is really strong and unbeatable in the video game industry, so he is simply prepared to be a long-term follower.
Behind Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, the game company that crossed the river by touching Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is fine.
However, when he finally became the president of Surui Electronics, the resources at his disposal suddenly increased dozens of times.
All departments can work according to his plan.
Even if there is restraint from the board of directors, he can at least be willful a few times. This is the privilege of every president.
Shareholders are more pursuing stability and will never take risks easily, which makes the development of a good company gradually slow down and no longer be as radical as in the past.
After Ueto Hayakawa took office, the first thing he did was to collect statistics and integrate many departments within the company.
Then he formulated a new development plan, which was to open up a brand new market through the video game industry.
To be honest, Suri Electronics was supposed to be much better than Youxing Electronic Entertainment.
However, due to the factional struggles in the past and the fact that his position did not have much influence at the time, he was never able to go all out.
But it's different now.
In the new development plan, the first thing he did was to deploy 70% of the employees in the company's semiconductor R&D department to the new game division.
The R&D team has nearly 500 people, including top semiconductor talents from Tokyo University and even several well-known universities in the United States.
If these people work hard, creating an excellent game console will not be a problem at all.
Even if Ueto Hayakawa doesn't have a foresight, he will inevitably take some detours, but as long as he has the courage to explore, he will not be worse than Yuxing Electronic Entertainment in terms of science and technology.
The game consoles of Youxing Electronic Entertainment only use off-the-shelf mature technologies.
And their company, Su Rui Electronics, has a number of world-class technology patents, and many advanced technologies have not even been displayed before.
And this future meeting is the moment to show off their skills to outsiders.
In the face-to-face meeting, Hayakawa Ueto personally hosted it. This was a face-to-face meeting format that completely imitated Takeyusei.
The importance of the meeting being hosted by the president himself made the meeting obviously different.
First of all, under his display, a new generation of home Su Rui electronic game console pnf home game console was launched.
pn is the standard code name given to game consoles by Surui Electronics, and f stands for future.
This obviously means fighting for the future.
And this time Hayakawa Ueto also knew that the only thing that can attract players is the game itself, not the performance of the game console.
So after just roughly showing the shape of the game console, he didn't bother to explain the performance of the game console, but directly played the video.
Leading the way is Surui Electronics’ flagship Hua Dan Sun Knight series.
This series has really gone through a lot of twists and turns from its initial birth to now.
From the beginning, only a few players liked Sun Knight, but now it has millions of fans. This is really not easy.
For example, at Yuxing Electronic Entertainment, the two largest role-playing IPs, Dragon Quest and Final Fantasy, had millions of sales in the first generation, and each subsequent generation can maintain sales of three to four million.
The scariest one among them is Final Fantasy 7.
From the time it was released to now, sales have almost reached 10 million.
In comparison, Sun Knight is really too weak.
But no matter what, Sun Knight has finally gained a firm foothold in the gaming industry. At least every generation of its works has been guaranteed not to lose money, which is enough for Hayakawa Ueto to insist on continuing to produce.
This generation of Sun Knight also has a new promotional slogan.
for the future.
The full name of the game is called Sun Knights: Future Fight.
In the promotional video, Sun Knight comes to the future world through some magical way of time travel.
In the future world, a world that originally only had science and technology suddenly gave birth to magic and monsters, as well as all kinds of dragons and terrifying creatures.
And after the Sun Knight, who is familiar with all this, comes to this future world, he can solve every monster faster than the people from the future, and this sense of substitution comes immediately.
After paving the way for many works, Sun Knight has gradually become popular among the people. As long as players play this game, they will naturally bring themselves into the role of Sun Knight, and become obsessed with the wonderful world view of Sun Knight.
And what’s even more surprising is that this time Sun Knight is made with real full 3D graphics.
This Sun Knight made with 3D graphics has the shadow of Unreal Engine everywhere, which shows the maturity of the game engine.
This time, Sun Knight uses the over-the-shoulder third-person perspective that is very standard for 3D games.
Because of the previous textbook-level 3D lens adjustment method of Super Mario 64, it really pointed out a clear path for game development to all game developers.
This time, the Sun Knight has once again made its own optimization and progress on this basis.
And most importantly, this game also has excellent graphics for this era.
This kind of picture expression is at least somewhere between ps2 and ps3. Coupled with the production of exquisite game CG, in terms of picture quality alone, it really has no rivals.
Hayakawa Ueto directly announced that this game will be released simultaneously with the pnf game console and will be promoted as the first blockbuster game.
In order to produce this game, Hayakawa Ueto used multiple departments of his own, including the special effects development team of Detroit Film Group, and multiple of his own imaging departments to work together to produce the CG animation of this game.
Then the total investment in this game reached more than 140 million US dollars.
This is also the second mega-production game in the world with an initial investment of over 100 million.
The manpower used alone exceeds a thousand people, covering all aspects of the field.
This shows that Hayakawa Ueto is really spending a lot of money and he really wants to make a turnaround.
With capital and technology in hand, ambitions began to expand rapidly, and things that I didn't dare to think about in the past began to fantasize.
This is just one game, and later Hayakawa Ueto personally demonstrated many different types of games.
There are racing types and sports types, and the most dazzling ones are those with very exquisite game graphics.
For visual animals like humans, this impact is really huge.
And this is the real strength of Surui Electronics.
