Chapter 48 The Los Angeles Fair

Chapter 48 Los Angeles Fair ([-])
October 10th, Los Angeles Fair.

Early in the morning, Lin Baicheng, Eric Davis and others went to Phil Trading Company, met with Phil Smith and others, and the group went to the venue of the exhibition together.

The Los Angeles Fair has been held for many years and has already formed a certain scale. Because of the numerous relationships in the industry, tens of thousands of people will come every time, which is a rare event.

Among these people, there are staff from the organizer, employees from product suppliers, agents from various countries, workers from related industries, journalists, and the largest number of tourists.

Because the industries are different, those in the same industry will be grouped together. Lin Baicheng and others went to the exhibition hall where the video game exhibition area is located.

The market of the game industry is not small, and the industry is prosperous, so the allocated exhibition area occupies a fairly good area.

However, Xinghe Games is just an unknown game company from Xiangjiang, so the place it was assigned to was not big. Lin Baicheng was mentally prepared for this, but he didn't realize until he got there that it was really small enough.

Not counting the space in the middle where you can walk, the exhibition hall can only hold about ten arcade machines. If there are more, it will be too crowded to walk.

Lin Baicheng brought [-] sets of each of the two games, only to find that he didn't need so many of them when he arrived, and only five sets of each game were enough.

Lin Baicheng asked Eric Davis to communicate with the staff of the organizer, but the other party said that the exhibition hall has been arranged, and there are companies in every place in the exhibition area, so there is no way to replace Galaxy Games with a better one. showroom.

Lin Baicheng had no choice but to accept it.

As a result, Xinghe games were arranged in a smaller exhibition hall that is relatively remote in the game exhibition area.

In the game exhibition area, the exhibition halls of Atari, Taito Co., Ltd., Nintendo, Sega and other game companies are much larger than those of Galaxy Games, especially Atari, which occupies the largest area, is several times larger than that of Galaxy Games. .

There's no way, Atari in this era is so good, and it is the most famous game company in the world in terms of popularity, although the market value is not that high because the company has only been established for a few years.

The showrooms of these game companies make Lin Baicheng very envious, but he believes that after the two games "Xiangjiang Cube" and "Pac-Man" are sold well, Xinghe Games will no longer be an unknown small company, but a The world-renowned big companies, next year's showroom belonging to Galaxy Games will definitely be no worse than those big companies.

In the early years, Nintendo was mainly engaged in toy production, so the exhibition halls were all in the toy exhibition area. As the company entered the game industry under the leadership of Yamauchiura in recent years, it began to make arcade machines. In order to promote the game company, the exhibition hall was moved to the game exhibition area.

This year, in addition to several arcade games, Nintendo also brought the latest color TV game. This is a home-use TV game developed in cooperation with Mitsubishi Electric. There are 6 simple versions of tennis games in the collection. I came here to see if I could gain something at the fair.

As a Los Angeles trade show that is held only once a year, the president of Yamauchi Pu also came to the scene to direct.

"Uncle Yamauchi!"

While Yamauchiura was busy directing, a somewhat familiar greeting sounded, and he turned around to look, only to find Sou Miyamoto who had left his job a while ago and went to work in Xiangjiang.

Miyamoto Sou's father, Miyamoto and Yamauchiura have been friends for many years, so Miyamoto Soo, as a junior, would of course come over to say hello after seeing Yamauchiura.However, because he had worked at Nintendo for a period of time before, and Lin Baicheng hired him from Nintendo to Galaxy Games, so he greeted Lin Baicheng before coming, and Lin Baicheng did not stop him from coming.

"Little Miyamoto!"

Ura Yamauchi was a little surprised when he saw Sou Miyamoto, and he said, "I remember you went to work for Xinghe Games in Xiangjiang. So, your company also came to participate in the exhibition this year."

Although Xinghe Game Company poached Soo Miyamoto, Ura Yamauchi, who did not pay much attention to Soo Miyamoto, did not remember this company because of this, and he forgot about this company not long after.

However, it is impossible for Nintendo not to pay attention to Taito Co., Ltd., the largest game company in China. Therefore, when Taito Co., Ltd.'s game "Xiangjiang Cube" became a hit, Yamauchi immediately asked people to investigate and found out that it was Taito Co., Ltd. Exclusive agent for a game from Xiangjiang.

After further investigation, the company Galaxy Games was naturally found out, and Ura Yamauchi also remembered that this company poached Soo Miyamoto, and then he remembered this game company from Xiangjiang.

"Yes, Uncle Yamauchi."

Miyamoto Soo responded, pointing in the direction of the company's exhibition hall and said, "Our company's exhibition hall is over there, but the company's reputation is incomparable with Nintendo's. The exhibition hall is relatively remote and small."

"It's the kind of problem that happens to every start-up company."

Yamauchiura was not surprised by this. He asked curiously: "Little Miyamoto, your company should have brought the game "Xiangjiang Cube" to the exhibition this time, right? Besides this game, you also brought Are there any other games coming?"

"There's also a game called Pac-Man."

Soo Miyamoto didn't hide it when he heard the words. After all, the company has brought the game to the exhibition for promotion. He said: "This game was developed by the president himself with us. It is different from the black and white games in the past. With a variety of colors and a novel way of playing, I believe it will be popular."

"Is it also a color game? It seems that everyone has thought of it together."

Yamauchiura couldn't help but feel moved when he heard this. The home video game he brought this time is also a color game console, but this is the first time a game that uses color on an arcade machine appears.Nintendo was planning to use color in the next latest arcade game, but now it seems that it has been pre-empted.

"Hearing what you said, I'm a little curious."

Yamauchiura really wants to see this colorful arcade game, but he can't leave here for the time being. He can't leave his own showroom and products alone. He can only find time to go there when he is free.

Miyamoto Sou stayed here for a while, and after realizing that Yamauchiura was going to be busy, he said goodbye and left.

In the exhibition hall of Xinghe Games, Lin Baicheng found that Miyamoto Sang came back, and did not ask Miyamoto Sang and Yamauchi what they talked about, but told Miyamoto Sang not to leave for a while, and played on the arcade as a game player game.

After all, he is the developer of the game. Soo Miyamoto has played the game "Pac-Man" more than once, and he is barely a master. By contrast, it's not all about attracting tourists.
