Rebirth 86: I Use Games to Kick Open the Door to the World

Chapter 226 Sega Doesn’t Allow Accidents Now. Fifth Update.

Akira Nakamura felt a little numb after hearing this.

This guy really doesn't think about any consequences.

In fact, NGS started out through plagiarism in its early years.

Akira Nakamura has always wanted to downplay this past as much as possible, but this guy wants to emphasize this point.

"President, this kind of blatant plagiarism will still have a great impact on our reputation."

"It's okay." Yamauchi waved his hand at this time.

He looked at the engineer and asked, "Will this hurt Sega?"

"Of course. In fact, this should be regarded as a counterattack on our part. You see, Sega launched Sonic the Hedgehog. Isn't this just copying our Super Mario? Why can't we copy it in turn?"

"That's enough! Sonic the Hedgehog can't be considered plagiarism at all. At most, it's the same type of gameplay."

The engineer spread his hands and said, "But why do people say that Sega also has its own 'Super Mario' during promotion?"

"This can only be regarded as a propaganda trick, but no one who has played these two games thinks that the two are exactly the same."

"Come on."

The engineer was a bit nonchalant.

"Okay Nakamura, you do what you should do, and this war strategy game will be managed by this engineer. I believe you can handle it all with your ability, right?"

The engineer immediately became energetic when he heard this, and quickly promised: "President, don't worry, as long as the company is willing to support me, I will definitely be able to fulfill your request."

"Well, then I'm waiting for your good news."

Nakamura Akira was holding back something he wanted to say.

But since the president has already made a decision, he, a quasi-high-level person who has not yet become a real high-level person, does not have much say at all.

The right to speak, the right to speak.

Akira Nakamura has never wanted to have this thing as much as he does now.

As long as he has this, he can implement his ideas.

"Director Nakamura, please forgive me for being tit-for-tat with you at the meeting. In fact, I think games are very similar, so what if we imitate them? Of course, I also want to save face. It is impossible to copy real games exactly. The game content is similar at most."

Akira Nakamura didn't want to waste any more words with this person. He just nodded slightly and said, "Okay, I understand. You have nothing else to do, right? I still have things to do."

The other party suddenly became a little embarrassed when he heard Akira Nakamura's words.

"What are you pretending to be?"

When Akira Nakamura left, the engineer curled his lips in disdain.

He is a careerist, probably the same type of person as Miyazaki.

Whenever there is an opportunity, he will definitely take advantage of it.

Before, he was just a core game console development engineer and had never had any chance to get ahead, but this time he felt it was his opportunity.

He has to work hard, maybe he will soar into the sky?

As for the process of soaring to the sky, he doesn't think it matters.

As long as the purpose is achieved.

The next day, the engineer left the game console development department, and then had his own office at the direction of the president. At the same time, he also recruited several game developers who had a good relationship with him as helpers.

He gave a guarantee of more salary.

In fact, for Yamauchi, it doesn't matter whether the engineer is successful or not, as long as he can influence Sega to a certain extent.

Anyway, it’s just a matter of investing a million dollars.

As for Nakamura Akira's concerns, Yamauchi felt that it was not necessary.

There are tens of millions of video games, and one or two plagiarisms are nothing.

Then, it didn’t take long for NGS to announce that it would also develop a war strategy game.

The background of this war strategy game is simply set in the shogunate period of Japan.

The computer engineer was quite fond of the history of his country. He felt that it was a treasure that no one had yet discovered, and it would be good to make more use of it.

As soon as the news came out, Gao Cunxiong quickly told Zuo Zhen.

The purpose of NGS choosing to develop a war strategy game at this time is quite clear.

I just want to rely on NGS's currently huge size to develop games of the same type as my own to suppress myself.

Moreover, the other party directly announced the history of the game they chose and promised to develop the game within half a year.

NGS also announced in a very high-profile manner that it had poached several employees of Guangrong Company who had previously developed the SLG Three Kingdoms game.

Romance of the Three Kingdoms has also achieved hundreds of thousands of sales before, and its reputation is quite good, mainly because it is the promoter of this genre and must have more experience in developing this genre.

These people are also very confident, and they feel that they must be more powerful.

As for real games, they think they probably want to imitate their Three Kingdoms, launch similar products, make a fortune in this blue ocean where there are not many similar products, and at the same time add a new category to Sega MD's game library.

In short, it is very high-profile, without much cover-up at all.

Komura was still a little worried when he made the call.

After all, they have some experienced veterans of the same type of development to help.

"Zuo Zhen-san, do you think this is easy to handle? If not, you can develop a game that you are better at. This war strategy game can be put away first. Or if you really want to develop it, I will find a way to dig it out for you. Just a few developers who are good at this type of development will be fine.”

Gao Cunxiong even thought about going to Guangrong to poach people and add helpers to Zuo Zhen.

Veterans are definitely better at it than novices.

Gao Cunxiong is obviously really serious and caring about Zuo Zhen as a partner. He is almost always concerned about Zuo Zhen's condition, for fear that something unexpected will happen to Zuo Zhen.

Sega is now on the rise and cannot withstand any unexpected situations.

It seems that Sega is gradually slaying the NGS dragon, but it is more of a mediation between each other and has not yet reached the level of complete suppression.

Sega was also afraid that it would be slapped to death by NGS.

"No need." Zuo Zhen held the microphone between his shoulder and ear, while his hands kept tapping on the keyboard.

"Now our development status is very stable. This game can be released as scheduled without having to worry too much about NGS."

"But they have..."

"To be honest with you, when it comes to war strategy, we in China should be better at it, but it has never been developed before. What's more, those so-called experienced people have only developed a war strategy game. We’re no better, so you don’t have to worry.”

"This... okay, as long as you know Zuo Zhen-san, that's fine."
