Tokyo: Being coveted by my wife, I just want to play games

Chapter 197 Sekiro is on sale
In Tokyo in April, not only are the cherry blossoms in bloom, but it’s also the day when college freshmen are entering school.

The young and beautiful girls in uniforms, the cherry blossom trees in full bloom along the campus avenue of Dongyi University, everything looks so beautiful. Several boys who had just entered school looked around on the campus avenue with excitement and excitement.

At this moment, a pure-looking girl came from the opposite side carrying a small bag. Her facial features are very pure and pleasant, and her body is relatively petite. The 18-year-old girl's newly developed body slightly holds up the cloud-like pure white T-shirt, and her slender and straight thighs are wrapped in a pair of tight jeans, like a waterfall. The long black hair exudes a charming luster under the bright sunshine.

It is a very common dress, but because of her unique pure temperament and extremely outstanding delicate facial features, she has still become the most watched girl on the street, and many boys are secretly peeping at her.

"Hey, hey, is that Izumi-senpai?! Oh my god, I didn't expect that I could actually see her!"

“I don’t know when Fuyukawa Old Thief will release Light Music Girl 2. I can’t wait!”

"Even if Light Music Girl 2 is released, it has nothing to do with Izumi-senpai, okay? I saw the announcement from Sistar before, saying that she is going to concentrate on her studies, so she will not take on any more commercial activities for the time being."

"I really don't know what Sistar is thinking. Not only is Qingyin Girl popular in the game, but her game album also caused a big shock in the ACG field. Under such circumstances, instead of vigorously promoting her, she is hiding it? I really want to not understand."

"You don't know this. My cousin works at Yuzu Club. Listen to her, Izumi-senpai is the sister of the old Fuyukawa thief, so she is not short of money at all. However, I heard that Sistar really wanted to promote it vigorously at that time. Izumi-senpai, but it seems that Izumi-senpai doesn’t really like being an idol, so Fuyukawa the old thief went to Sistar in person and then settled the matter.”

"Ah? No, isn't he kicked out of NTsoft? Is he so powerful?"

"Wow, is he really that powerful? I saw a lot of people scolding him on the forum before."

She said that she was too upright. After marriage, Yumi had long understood the awkward character of her best friend. She smiled helplessly and shook her head: "He is really a guy who doesn't know the blessings in the blessings. It's not like me. I want to go home after school and have to sit down. Fifty minutes on the subway. It’s really irritating how many people there are.”

"Hmph! This guy's elbows are also turned outward!"

The tone was unpleasant, but after hearing these words, two sweet dimples appeared on Izumi Himawari's innocent little face.

Stepping into the bright sunshine and picking away the cherry blossom petals from her hair, Izumi Himawari muttered in a low voice and soon arrived at the school gate.

"That's true, but the impact shouldn't be too big."

For a very unreasonable reason, after marriage, Yumi smiled and shook her head: "You are just spoiled by him. I have never seen someone who has been together for more than a year and often picks up girlfriends. Man after school, Dongchuan has been good enough to you."

Yumi, who had been waiting for the wedding for a long time, came forward, handed the milk tea into her hand, and said with a smile: "What's wrong? You look very unhappy."

"Hey, who told you to go to the University of Tsukuba? Okay, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to your house quickly. I'm going to teach Misaki and I have to buy groceries."

"Of course I want to buy it, I've already pre-ordered it. However, the big IP Western Gunslinger from Sao Paulo Studio has only been released for a week, and Sekiro will be online at this time, so the pressure may be great."

Humph, a bunch of stinky boys who only know how to play games!

Although it was only a few days, the two of them had been getting along day and night for the past year. In addition, the eighteen-year-old girl was already sensitive, which still made her somewhat depressed, and she even complained about the game.

"The Western Gunners are really fun. I played several all-nighters a few days ago!"

Rolling his eyes in displeasure, Izumi Himawari took the milk tea and took a deep sip, "Humph, what else could it be? Today is the first day of school, and the stinky uncle didn't even take the initiative to call me!"

"Just kidding, just a few days after its release, their sales have exceeded 5 million, and it is expected to be the game of the year this year. Moreover, the quality of this game is high, and the players who follow it online may also be more demanding. "

The same goes for the smelly uncle. He went to Hawaii for several days and didn’t care about Xiaokui at all!
Women only affect the speed of drawing the knife. At first, I heard a few boys talking about themselves, but later the conversation completely shifted to the game. Passing by them, Izumi Himawari shrugged his shoulder bag, feeling both proud and unhappy.

Misaki is Yumi's younger sister. Because she also wants to pursue music, Izumi Himawari occasionally goes over to tutor her on weekends.

"I don't know, maybe it's due to internal fighting within the company or something. Anyway, he has quite a big influence in the gaming industry now."

It wasn't that he was unhappy because these unknown boys didn't pay attention to him, it was mainly because Fuyukawa Che went to Hawaii these days.

"I've heard about this too. I was reading the game forum a few days ago and it was said that SATE and Juyin had set up some kind of conference alliance in Hawaii. That Fuyukawa Che was on the invitation list. Hey, by the way, what he did before A new game, Sekiro, will be released tonight. Do you want to buy it?”

"Kick him out? You fool, you really don't know any inside information. He was kicked out of NTsoft. He has said too much and you don't understand. Anyway, just remember that the old Fuyukawa thief is now the leader in the industry. His reputation is very scary. At that time, he had just submitted his resignation to NTsoft, and Juyin offered him the position of head of the game business in Japan. Although he was not the head of the game, he still had great power. He was only twenty-six years old. Ah, my cousin is over thirty and has not yet become a director."

Today is the first day of school, but for the sophomore sister, there are not many classes. She reports in the morning and then does whatever she has to do. The whole afternoon is free time.

Normally, since the two close roommate seniors have graduated and are preparing to join Fuyukawa Cheru's new company, she has nothing to do if she stays in school. But Sayoko is also out looking at office buildings today, and only Tsukitake Asuka and Cat are at home. dog, so she wasn't in a hurry to get home.

The two best friends walked and chatted together, and soon took the subway to Akihabara. As soon as he left the Akihabara subway square, Izumi Himawari was shocked by the scene in front of him.

I saw two rows of columns in front of the Akihabara subway station. On the left were posters about Sekiro, and on the right were posters that no one else had seen yet, but that were so familiar to her. figure.

Saber in knight armor, Tohsaka Rin in red and black stockings, Matou Sakura in purple and gentle-looking, white-haired little lolita Illya, Miss R with an explosive figure, and Stardew Valley Poster.

Izumi Himawari was stunned, "The announcement has already started? Why didn't I know?"

Although she did not participate in the production of FATE, when Sayoko and Fuyukawa Teru were developing, she would occasionally sleep on the lazy sofa in the back, or play with cats and dogs. Naturally, she was very familiar with these characters, but now The company hasn't even been established yet.

A little confused, but soon she discovered the problem.

On these FATE promotional columns, there are not only FATE characters, but FATE characters and other medieval-style characters put together together.

"["Dragon Age "FATE" and "Stardew Valley" will be released simultaneously, so stay tuned]. Ah, joint promotion? Humph, it seems that the uncle is not just getting tired of that guy Miyano these days."

The tagline is very long, but also very clear. Izumi Himawari understood immediately. Next to her, Yumi was a little worried after the marriage, "By the way, Fuyukawa has already left NTsoft. Can he still use these game names at this time?"

Izumi Himawari smiled and shrugged: "Don't worry, I'm very smart, and I won't make such stupid mistakes. What's more, SATE's legal department is known as the strongest in the world."

Although he has not entered the game industry yet, he is preparing to enter Fuyukawa Che's music department in the future. Not wanting to be held back, she has also been researching knowledge related to the game industry for a long time. What's more, Fuyukawa Che has never been shy about speaking at home. From a high position, she knows far more about the secrets of the industry than ordinary people, even ordinary practitioners.

In her opinion, if Fuyukawa Che was not sure, he would definitely not be able to give NTsoft a chance to catch him.

but
"FATE and Stardew Valley are placed next to NTsoft's advertisements. Huh, he is still the vindictive uncle."

Izumi Himawari thought with a smile. Needless to say, SATE is not comparable to NTsoft in terms of financial resources, material resources, and influence.

The two of them chatted and walked out of the West Square, which was full of poster columns. Soon, even more exaggerated promotional posters came into view. I saw an oversized poster posted on the wall of the red SATE subsidiary in Akihabara. However, the composition of a poster of this scale is naturally different from that of the cylinder.

Most of this poster is a promotional image for "Age of Dragons". Only on the left and right sides of the screen can you see elements of FATE and Stardew Valley, but that's enough!

SATE is Japan's top game company. Although it is only a subsidiary here in Akihabara, it is still a must-check-in place for all users who are interested in games when they come to Akihabara.

Not to mention how big the traffic of this promotion is, just the appearance of his name Fuyukawa Che in this place is enough to cause a lot of enthusiasm in the gaming circle. After all, although Sekiro has been trying its best to avoid Fuyukawa Cheru in terms of publicity, and did not even mention the topic of game producer at the press conference some time ago, but more serious players all know that Sekiro is made by Fuyukawa Cheru. And this is a topic that can easily lead to [nuclear harmonious] discussion among players.

It's like Blizzard has held so many game conferences, but most players probably only remember one sentence: "Don't you have a mobile phone?"

Humans are naturally more willing to engage in highly confrontational topics and are more likely to believe in conspiracy theories.

Tetsu Fuyukawa just left NTsoft and released two new games. There is no doubt that in the minds of many players, this means that NTsoft forced Tetsu Fuyukawa away!

The entire gaming community is buzzing!
To be honest, there is definitely a discussion on this topic, but it shouldn’t be so high. But since yesterday, there have been a lot of slanderous comments on the Internet to discredit Fuyukawa Che!
Smear!

Many people now think that NTsoft is responsible, but this time NTsoft is really lying.

It was not NTsoft who smeared Fuyukawa Teru. Asai had no ambitions and now just wanted to deal with the matter coldly. But when Fuyukawa Cheru announced FATE's [ultra-low] pricing in Hawaii two days ago, he offended many peers.

Destroying people's wealth is like killing their parents. Now many Galgame game manufacturers are slandering Fuyukawa Cheru in major game forums, but not to mention Fuyukawa Cheru's current cooperative relationship with SATE, as well as the entire Hawaii Game Alliance, four games last year Games, many players are also very aware of his game production capabilities.

Some people smear it, and some people like it. In addition, maybe SATE accidentally launched a large-scale publicity, or maybe Sato Fujiko was keenly aware of the opportunity and added fuel to the fire.

As a result, for a while, the names of "Sekiro", "FATE", "Age of Dragons", "Stardew Valley", as well as NTsoft and Fuyukawa Cheru began to fill the major game forums, and even video websites such as YouTube Xiaopo Station , there are UP owners starting to analyze videos and consume traffic.

"Talents should not bow to capital" "Hitio Asai, the president of NTsoft, has committed a heinous crime!" 》《NTsoft executives are really not human beings when they treat meritorious service like this! "The hero of troubled times, Fuyukawa Che!" ”, various eye-catching videos have been released one after another, causing a stir.

Needless to say, even though SATE's financial resources completely surpassed NTsoft's, and Juin from the Hawaii Game Alliance pinched his nose to help, almost all the videos were scolding Asai and criticizing Fuyukawa Teru, but Asai didn't do anything. reaction.

It's not that he didn't want to react, but the board didn't agree.

Asai was indeed scolded to the point where his parents didn't even recognize him, but because he was a target, Sekiro did receive a huge amount of traffic! And the most important thing is that the players are scolding Asai and not Sekiro together. After all, the target of the person who attacked Fuyukawa Cheru is not Sekiro in the first place.

This time things were aroused, but in fact, whether it was NTsoft, SATE or Fuyukawa Cheru, all the traffic was consumed, and only Asai was getting beaten!
Of course he was unhappy, but in the face of the collective interests of the company, it was appropriate to suffer personally. Chairman Xiaohe even suggested that NTsoft also step up its efforts to let Asai resist more firepower and benefit the company. As a result, Naturally, Asai was furious after being shot. He pointed at his nose and cursed, but losing his temper could not change the reality.

Of course, Izumi Himawari didn’t know what was happening behind the scenes. She only knew that as she left the square in front of the subway station and entered the main street of Akihabara, the propaganda about Sekiro became more and more intense, not only on the posters on the wall. , Sekiro promotional videos are also played in every store.

Almost any store with a name, such as Dragon's Cave, Lotian offline store, BOOTH offline store and other big-name chain stores that sell game discs, are always crowded at the entrance.

"Baga! Boss, you will die if you release the game earlier!"

"No, the company has regulations that it can only be sold after four o'clock."

"Coward! You can release it at the time NTsoft says it will be released! Can you have some backbone?! You are still a Showa man!"

"I want to play the new work of the old thief Fuyukawa! I, Makoto Ito, want to see how to write the word death today!"

"Hey, hey, this is my pre-order receipt, don't lose it!"

"There are at least one or two hundred people here, including Xiaosaki at the back. Hurry up and inform the manager that we don't have enough goods!"

Seeing that it was almost time for the game to be released, in front of the Comic Dragon's Cave store, many young men couldn't bear it anymore and started making noises. Inside the store, the boss with a white scarf tied on his head and a few waiters... The sisters could only stay with the smiling face in pain, and one of them ran to the backstage to call the company management to adjust the goods!

It was a very hot scene. This scene was also seen by Izumi Himawari and the married woman Yumi who were passing by.

After the wedding, Yumi drank a can of coffee and exclaimed: "The popularity is really exaggerated. Look at your uncle, he can get a lot of dividends this time."

Izumi Himawari nodded with a smile and said: "Of course, uncle is very smart and never does business at a loss. Hey, by the way, have you pre-ordered online?"

"Ah?" Yumi was stunned after the marriage, but after feeling the increasingly dangerous gaze of Izumi Himawari, she smiled sheepishly and scratched her head, "Well, there were a lot of things going on some time ago, so..."

"Humph, it's a shame that uncle has invited you to dinner so many times, but you don't even support me at this time. Come on, let's line up too!" Izumi Himawari rolled her eyes arrogantly, dragging Yumi after marriage. I ran to the back of the team, and then looked at the long queue in the distance with excitement and pride.

Her own interest in games is not that strong. She prefers music, but she is very excited to witness Fuyukawa Che's success with her own eyes.
