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

Chapter 212 Campus Love Healing Theme
Eleven o'clock noon.

With the help of Sayoko, Fuyukawa Teru, who put on sunglasses and a peaked cap, came in a wheelchair to the shade of the trees in front of the company building. He calmly ate ice cream and looked at the [Holy Light's Family] fan shop not far away.

The game will be released soon, but to be honest, he is not too concerned about PC sales. After all, FATE is a [hard currency] that does not follow the trend of the times, and the sales volume will definitely not be different. The only variable is how much the sales limit can be increased after his improvement, stockpiling, and large-scale publicity.

Therefore, Fuyukawa Che is actually more concerned about the sales of these two games on the handheld side, and a large part of the users of the handheld side are physical disk users.

"Today is really lively, as expected of the Kanda Festival. This is a good sign, Che-kun."

Sayoko, who was wearing a floral dress and full of intellectual aura, stretched out her hand to brush the ends of his hair, then smoothed the hem of her skirt on the big peach. She sat on the edge of the knee-high flower bed and looked at the side with some enjoyment. Bustling crowds.

Today is Friday. Normally, students have to go to school in the afternoon, but today is also the day when one of Japan's three major festivals, the Kanda Festival, is held.

On this joyful day, people wearing ancient costumes will carry three phoenix chariot mikoshi enshrined in honor of Kanda Myojin through the central areas of Tokyo such as Kanda, Nihonbashi, Otote, Marunouchi and Akihabara.

Of course, there are not just three phoenix-shaped mikoshi. Generally speaking, there are more than a hundred mikoshi. There are also various floats, middle-aged people with white headscarves on their heads, men dressed as samurai, and witches in costumes. There were young ladies and children holding small flags, and the team size exceeded 300 people.

The atmosphere was very lively, and the entire Akihabara was ignited by this enthusiasm. However, as the saying goes, butts determine thoughts. For the Kanda Festival, ordinary people are more likely to enjoy the fun and carnival, but for Fuyukawa Teru, he is more concerned about the business opportunities.

Should it be said or not, in the past few days when he flashed his waist, Sayoko, Miyano Miwa and others were very worried at first, but later, the worry turned into teasing.

Licking the ice cream in his mouth, Dongchuan Che's eyes gradually relaxed, but in the relaxation, there was more anticipation!
Chika Ohara obtained a loan from the bank two days ago. Because almost all of his, Miyano Miwa's and Ohara Chika's past game dividend interests were mortgaged, the loan amount this time was very large, close to one billion yen.

Many students and cute girls looked at Fuyukawa Cheru curiously, but because Fuyukawa Cheru was wearing sunglasses and a peaked cap, they didn't recognize who he was. They just used the words "It's such a shame to be in a wheelchair at such a young age." Looking at him with eyes, two kind-hearted blind little sisters even came over and asked him if he was separated from his family and if he needed help. The result naturally made Sayoko snicker.

Or to be more precise, in his opinion, it is better to pray to God and Buddha than to advertise on the telephone poles for rich women who spend a lot of money to ask for a child. After all, you are still sending money, officials, and children, and although these goddesses are also liars, they can still say a few words to you.

On the road are processions carrying mikoshi, and on the sidewalk are players waiting to buy game cartridges. Amidst the bustling outside world and the waiting with great anticipation, the clock slowly moves towards twelve noon. In the process, [St. The number of customers queuing up at the door of the doujin shop began to increase, and they gradually lined up under the shade of the trees.

Although the popularity and traffic of online anchors and idol artists are not low, in the eyes of the outside world, they are still somewhat inferior. Under his instructions, the entire Holy Light Society will be completely open to outside media today, and today is the day of the Kanda Festival.

It was a bit cold to eat ice cream in this weather. Sayoko shook her plump body cutely, then nodded and said: "No problem, I asked Yue Zhu to help keep an eye on it. As for those network anchors, Aunt Nogi is also in charge. I have contacted them before they came out. After passing her, she said everything was ready."

Under the shade of a tree, there is a handsome disabled man in a wheelchair - Mogami River.

Fuyukawa Che handed the milk ice cream in his hand to Sayoko to take a bite, and continued: "By the way, are you sure about Xiaokui's side?"

"Well, it's so cold."

Because he traveled through time, he, Fuyukawa Che, was not a complete atheist. He felt that there should be so-called "gods" in this world, but gods had nothing to do with humans, let alone money and status.

Playing with Sayoko's soft little hands, Fuyukawa Che leaned on the wheelchair and nodded and smiled, "It is indeed a good sign. However, praying to God and Buddha will not bring you glory and wealth. That thing only benefits the rich."

Fuyukawa Teru had a free and unruly personality, and had never had much respect for gods and Buddhas. However, this was different for Sayoko, a traditional and beautiful woman. She wrinkled her little nose, "Chejun always likes to talk nonsense."

"That's good."

This is a complete chain of publicity and distribution plans.

The early anchors, Internet celebrities and idol artists were just paving the way. Fuyukawa Che hopes that with their popularity and traffic, the special day of the Kanda Festival will attract the attention of mainstream media at home and abroad, and even official media!

East Asian cultural circles naturally worship the power of the government to a greater or lesser extent. A word from the mainstream media or even the official media has a far greater impact than anything else. But there is a major premise for all of this, and that is that the quality of the game itself must be excellent and it must be able to trigger a circle-breaking popularity!
Moreover, this is the first work of our company!
look forward to.

Even though Fuyukawa Che prides himself on having a calm personality, he couldn't help but feel a little excited at this moment.

Under the watchful eye of Fuyukawa Cheru eating ice cream, many anchors and internet celebrities carrying cameras were playing with wires at the entrance of [Holy Light's House] fan shop. Sistra's idol artists were already preparing to go on stage behind the stage in front of the shop. , but this is still just the beginning.

"Okay, okay, don't worry about the big stuff."

Starting at 12 noon today, he will spend all of this money within a week. On average, he will spend 7 million yuan a day for publicity!
Very scary figures. When Are You Hungry and a certain group competed for territory, they only spent one to two million yuan a day, and a large part of the money these two companies spent was used to make profits for riders, merchants and users. , the number that actually falls on publicity and distribution is not necessarily seven million!
The scale of the announcement is very scary, and the first step in the announcement plan of Fuyukawa Teru and Miyano Miwa, in addition to overwhelming advertising, is to invite anchors from major platforms to conduct live broadcasts of store visits for today's game launch!

He, Fuyukawa Teru, liked to control the situation, whether in the workplace or in bed. Generally speaking, Sayoko and the others were in a feminine posture. But now that his waist has flashed, he has transformed from a knight king into a war horse.
Although he couldn't ride because his waist was too tight, he still sat and grinded. The most disgusting thing was that Miyano Miba saw that he didn't dare to exert force, so every time he would pull his hands over his head in a mean way, and then put his hands under his armpits and chest muscles. Rub and rub.

M was ecstatic, but it was obvious that Cheru Fuyukawa was S through and through.

Recalling the [humiliation] memories of the past few days in his mind, and looking at the little girls not far away who showed [care], Fuyukawa Che rolled his eyes at Sayoko who was still snickering, and said angrily: "I still want to see more When will it be time to get to work?”

The tone was not kind, but it was rare to see Fuyukawa Che in such a state of "angry". Sayoko was not afraid, she just smiled and came to the back of the wheelchair, leaned over and whispered, "Che-kun is really bad-tempered. However, during this period of time, you can It’s all Mei Ting who is causing trouble, Mr. Che must not find the wrong target for revenge.”

"You guys are really quick to betray your teammates."

"It's not that I'm betraying my teammates. The main reason is that Sayoko feels that Mei Ting wants to be whipped by Che-kun more."

"Little whip? I think you not only want the little whip, but also the big dragon." Fuyukawa Che winked teasingly, and Sayoko blushed, "You want them all~ Oops, there are too many people here. Let’s go back and deal with the work first.”

The voice came from behind the ear, and Sayoko's gentle cheek could not be seen, but from the soft and greasy voice, Fuyukawa Che could probably guess that this beautiful woman was probably wet with spring water at this time.

Thinking that his waist would be fine in a few days, he felt hot inside. However, when the wheelchair entered the company building from the side door and came to the employee passage of [Holy Light's Home] fan shop, he also calmed down.
.
Fuyukawa Che's original plan for the [Holy Light's Family] fan shop was to have a store on the first floor. Employees usually just go through the side door and get on the elevator. But then he thought that the company still needed a first-floor lobby, so the first floor of the Holy Light Club building was opened. The building was divided. [Holy Light’s Home] doujin shop now only occupies one-third of the first floor of the company building, and the rest is the company’s welcome hall. However, the area of ​​[Holy Light’s Home] doujin shop has become smaller. But it also changed from one floor to a two-story shop similar to a building within a building.

The first floor sells discs and cassettes from all game manufacturers as well as various fan products. The second floor is a counter dedicated to Shengguangshe games. There is also a free trial area for PH consoles and WS handheld consoles.

There was no suspense. As the time came to 12 noon, Amei, wearing a suit with Sakura Matou's face on it, announced at the door of the store that the second floor area was officially open to the public. Countless excited customers began to pour into the store.

There were a lot of customers, and the atmosphere in the chattering store was very lively, but looking at this scene, Fuyukawa Che didn't have much joy on his face.

FATE has been heavily publicized in the early stage, and it is one of the offline sales stores of WP handheld devices. It is not unusual to cause such enthusiasm. The real key lies in the feedback of players after playing the game. word-of-mouth feedback.

"Although Galgame is said to be a niche field, in fact, the early meat pigeon theme was not much better than Galgame. The later theme was able to enter the public eye mainly because of the low price and the emergence of several hit movies. "

Staying in the corner of the store, Fuyukawa Che held a copy of Sayoko's 18X manga in his hand and flipped through it casually, while thinking constantly in his mind. It’s true that Galgame is a niche game, but everything has a reason.

Why is Galgame a niche game?

In Fuyukawa Che's opinion, it's just three points.

The first is that the reading threshold is very high. The amount of text in Galgame is much larger than that of online novels and light novels, but the plot content is not necessarily as large as that of novels, so reading it will feel slow and less exciting.

But in this regard, the main thing is to look at the script. For a Galgame like FATE, the reading threshold is not a problem.

In addition to the reading threshold, the price is too expensive.

Galgame is not generally expensive. Even after several rounds of price cuts, many games are still priced around 8000 yen. The prices of works from major Galgame companies like Yuzusha start at yen.

Although the wage level in Japan is relatively high, the price is still too unreasonable, and the vast majority of Galgames that match the unreasonable price are actually not exquisite.

Companies that make Galgame are generally small and medium-sized manufacturers. Such manufacturers often do not have sufficient funds and have poor risk resistance. In order to strictly control costs, there will be scenes of reuse of various materials. For example, if the same CG has a curved mouth and a smile, it will be a new one. CG.

The most intense experience of playing Galgame is that often a clip contains hundreds or thousands of words, but the characters in the picture do not even move, and at most they change into smiling faces.

The threshold for reading is high, or the threshold for getting started is high, coupled with the high selling price, it is matched with various materials for reuse.

Under the influence of these factors, it was strange that Galgame could enter the public eye, but it is different now!

The plot of FATE is extremely good, and he, Cheru Fuyukawa, also lowered the price and stacked a lot of materials at the same time.

In this case, FATE has almost no shortcomings. The rest depends on whether the radio wave can match the player.

Thinking of this, Fuyukawa Che leaned the back of his head against Sayoko's slightly voluptuous belly, and soon Sayoko pushed him to the elevator to the second floor. Compared with the variety on the first floor, the number of shelves on the second floor is very small.

There are only two rows of shelves, all of which are filled with FATE discs and cassettes. There are even a few walls that are completely empty, with only promotional posters about FATE, Stardew Valley, and Elden's Ring.

It's strange. Normally, even if there are no game sales in these areas, more trial machines can be placed, but Fuyukawa Che has his own plans for these places.

FATE is a large-scale IP that spans many fields, and players who have had a little exposure to game peripherals will understand how much sales can be generated by co-branding game peripherals with classic game IP.

In the future, these areas will either be used to sell CD and cassette peripherals for other games, or they will be linked with peripheral brands such as Logitech, Razer ROG, etc. But these are all things in the future. After arriving on the second floor, nodding and greeting the store employees all the way, Sayoko directly pushed Fuyukawa Che to the trial area.

It is said to be a trial area, but it actually feels somewhat similar to the atmosphere of an Internet cafe.

It's just that FATE is a story-driven game after all, and just like Japanese Internet cafes are all single rooms, most Japanese people don't like their private space to be disturbed by other people, so Fuyukawa Che also thoughtfully stayed between each computer. A curtain was installed to protect against prying eyes, but as the first batch of trial guests turned on the game and entered the game, the entire trial area gradually became lively.

"Nani?! Is it true? There are three CGs in the opening monologue?!"

"A big factory is a big factory, and the level of material accumulation is too exaggerated!"

"Si Guoyi, the old Dongchuan thief still has some conscience."

"Hey, hey, Rin Tosaka's drawing is too astringent. I've never seen such straight and voluptuous thighs in real life, you bastard!"

"Sister Yuzu, race high!"

"The CG is really good, but the key to Galgame is the plot."

Chattering discussions resounded throughout the trial area. When she heard someone praising herself, a blush of excitement and pride appeared on Sayoko's face unconsciously, and the little hand on Fuyukawa Che's shoulder unconsciously became a lot tighter.

Just as Fuyukawa Che smiled and patted her hand to show encouragement, on a machine in front of the two of them, a loli anchor who was setting up a selfie camera said: "Hey, I'm sorry, good afternoon everyone, here This is Mengmeng-chan's live broadcast room. Welcome everyone. Now, Mengmeng-chan has arrived on the second floor of the legendary [Holy Light's Home] fan shop. As you can see, there are a lot of customers here today. , if Mengmeng-chan was not an invited guest, I don’t know how long it would take to queue up.

Ah? Being bribed? Well, to be honest, Holy Light Society did spend a lot of money this time. But before we came here, their senior manager Mr. Kawaguchi told us personally that this time we would be allowed to play freely and everything would be as real as possible.

Nani? Do not believe? Hey, why don’t you believe this? The whole trial process will be live broadcast later. You can most intuitively and truly feel the level of this so-called [the strongest Galgame in history]. Okay, Mengmeng Jiang has now entered the game. Next, let us take a look at what is unique about this Galgame, which focuses on the theme of campus love healing. "
