My love life with the Yuanzu singer

Although he had just held a concert and even his voice became a little hoarse, Akina Nakamori still had no time to rest. He was busy with the recording of the TV show the next morning, which made Kimura Hiroshi a little distressed, but Fortunately, Akina Nakamori did not have a cold and was in good health. If she fell ill, Hiroshi Kimura would not let her go to work anyway.

His girlfriend went to work, and Hiroshi Kimura also had no way to rest. He promised Yukio Tomioka to record "LA LA LA LOVE SONG" today. Naturally, he would not miss the appointment, so after Akina Nakamori left, he also got up immediately. Get out of bed and go to Warner to start recording a new single.

After these years of hard work, it is very easy for Kimura Hiroshi to record a single now. He only needs to sing carefully, maybe only need to record a few times, and the recording can be completed.

Today's recording is still the same. Hiroshi Kimura completed the recording of the single in only four recordings. Yukio Tomioka, who watched Hiroshi Kimura's recording outside, is also used to it. Hiroshi Kimura's musical talent is beyond doubt, and he completed the recording so quickly , he just gave a thumbs up to express his appreciation.

When Kimura Hiroshi finished recording, Yukio Tomioka said to him, "Very good, Kimura-san, this is also a new style of single, but it doesn't seem to be any difficulty for Kimura-san. By the way, this year's red and white The song will be held as usual, and the invitation letter sent to you by the program group is already with me."

"Oh, yes, it's definitely going to be held. I thought they would really stop it. It's interesting." Hiroshi Kimura didn't show any big mood swings. will be discontinued.

It has been widely rumored before that because of Tianhuang's serious illness, this year's Red and White Song Festival will be suspended. The Composers Association also discussed this. What decision, but the news of the suspension has spread.

But in the end, neither NHK nor the Composers Association can give up such a grand music celebration every year, and Tianhuang has to be ranked second, so they still decided to hold it as usual.

Since it will be held as usual, then Hiroshi Kimura will just participate as usual, so he continued, "Then reply to them, I will attend on time, remember to inform me when the rehearsal is."

"No problem. The rehearsal time should be the same as before. I will arrange the specific time." Yukio Tomioka is also faithfully fulfilling his duties as Hiroshi Kimura's manager.

After recording the single, he had a meal with Yukio Tomioka and the others. Hiroshi Kimura did not stay at Warner, but went directly to Hegemony Club. There are still many things waiting for him to deal with in the company.

Only when he approached the office, Kayo Sato stopped him, "President, you are here, the vice president asked me to tell you, if you come, please go to the manga department, if you don't come, I will also call Called you."

"Oh, manga department, what happened?" Hiroshi Kimura was curious about what happened when he came here unexpectedly.

It’s just that Kayo Sato didn’t seem to be very clear. She said, “I don’t understand it very well, but the vice president said that it seems that some game company wants to communicate with us to see if we can cooperate. It seems to be Nintendo.”

"Nintendo?" Hearing this name, even Hiroshi Kimura couldn't keep calm. Nintendo, the three giants of the video game industry, the pioneer of modern video games, how many children's childhood memories.

One of the big reasons why he released "Pokémon" was to wait for the arrival of Nintendo. This is a way to make a fortune. Hiroshi Kimura was naturally full of expectations, but he didn't expect the other party to come so soon. A big pie actually came, so naturally Hiroshi Kimura would not let it go easily.

So he didn't even enter the office, so he walked towards the manga department. His footsteps were fast, and he arrived at the manga department in a short while, and then he saw the vice president Xiaoming Matsumoto visiting the manga department with a few strange faces. , chatting with those painters.

"Hey, President, I didn't expect you to come so soon. Come here quickly. Let me introduce you. This is Mr. Yokoi Gunpei from Nintendo. Mr. Yokoi, this is the president of our Hegemony Club. Mr. Hiroshi Kimura." Seeing Hiroshi Kimura coming, Koaki Matsumoto quickly pulled him over to get acquainted with the Nintendo people.

Although he has heard of Hiroshi Kimura of Nintendo, he is not familiar with the character Hiroshi Kimura in it. He has no impression of Junpei Yokoi with gray hair, and he doesn't know what kind of status he is in Nintendo.

"Hello, Mr. Kimura, ah, maybe I should call you the big star Kimura-san, haha, many young girls in our company like you very much, you can even be said to be very fanatical." Junpei Yokoi took the initiative He reached out to shake Hiroshi Kimura's hand, and teased him very easily.

The other party was so approachable, so Kimura Hiroshi naturally wouldn't put on a straight face, and said with a smile, "Haha, let's forget about celebrities, I actually want to be a corporate executive like Mr. Yokoi, especially a large company like Nintendo." .”

In Nihong, if you are an executive of a large company, your status is much higher than that of any star. Many female stars are proud to marry such a person, but these people often look down on stars in the entertainment industry. There are a lot of things to play.

The two sides had a business exchange, and the atmosphere suddenly opened up. Hiroshi Kimura also met several people brought by Yokoi Junpei, many of whom were Nintendo game designers.

As for Mr. Yokoi Junpei, Kimura Hiroshi also asked Matsumoto Takaaki about it, and found that this person is not simple. He is considered the father of neon GB games. The very simple game console that can play Tetris is a kind of handheld game console, and the later Switch is also a handheld game console.

It was such a big person coming, and Kimura Hiroshi naturally wouldn't face it casually. After getting to know each other, they came to the meeting room of the Hegemony Club to discuss.

First they exchanged pleasantries, and then started formal negotiations. As expected by Hiroshi Kimura, Gunpei Yokoi came this time because of the best-selling manga "Pokémon" by Hegemony.

"Just now I chatted with the people from Hegemony Club Manga, and they said that the "Pokémon" manga was actually Mr. Kimura's idea. Is this true?" Junhei Yokoi asked very curiously.

"Ah, yes, "Pokémon" is something I came up with by accident. The source is the insect specimens I collected in the fields of Kasukabe when I was a child. I was thinking that if these insects were replaced with some magical animals , Is it possible to collect some special comics, so there is this "Pokémon." Hiroshi Kimura said pretending to be in memory.

It's just that when he said this, a young man behind Yokoi Gunpei looked stunned, and Yokoi Gunpei laughed when he heard it, patted the shoulder of the young man behind him and said, "Tajiri-san, it seems that someone has the same experience as you Ah, it's just that someone else is more powerful than you, he has already produced what he wants."

"Ah, yes, Mr. Kimura's talent is far superior to mine. I just had this idea, but I didn't expect that someone had already made it. It's really amazing." Satoshi Tajiri said with a sense of loss .

And when he heard the name Tajiri Satoshi, Hiroshi Kimura was shocked, not because of anything else, but because the guy in front of him who looked about the same grade as him was the original author of "Pokémon", and the "Pokémon" that Kimura Hiroshi said just now The idea of ​​creating Pokémon is also Satoshi Tajiri’s real experience. It is because he collected insect specimens when he was a child and liked games when he grew up, so he came up with the idea of ​​collecting magical animals, which led to Pokémon. Let’s see him His name, Satoshi Tajiri, the name of the actor Xiaozhi comes from his own name. Today Hiroshi Kimura is regarded as Li Gui bumping into Li Kui.

"Well, it turns out that Mr. Tajiri also has the same idea, then we are really like the old saying in China, heroes see the same thing." Kimura Hiroshi concealed his nervousness, pretending to be very excited Said.

It’s just that he said that, Tajiri Satoshi was a little embarrassed, scratched his not too long hair and said, "No, no, Mr. Kimura has already realized his conjecture, and I only have a vague idea, which is not as good as Kimura's." Mister."

"Tajiri-san also has a genius mind to have such an idea. This time he came to Hegemony Club precisely because of Tajiri-san. He told me that he wanted to develop a new game, similar to collecting insect specimens. At the meeting, we talked briefly, and someone told me that there is a very popular manga on the market, which is of this type, so I came to Hegemony Club and met another genius, Mr. Kimura." Junhei Yokoi Talk about why he came to Hegemony Club.

So, if it wasn't for his appearance, I'm afraid Tajiri Satoshi's proposal would have been appreciated by Yokoi Gunhei, and then he began to plan the production of a new game. After six or seven years of production, he finally brought Pokémon to the world and became a few A classic game that generations will remember.

"I see. It seems that the heroes really have the same views. Tajiri-san and I wanted to go together, so this time, Mr. Yokoi wants to use "Pokémon" to plan a new game? Hegemony with us Is the society cooperative?" Hiroshi Kimura really asked excitedly this time.

If he can get on Nintendo's car and gamify "Pokémon", then Hiroshi Kimura can definitely make a lot of money. Nintendo probably won't overpay.

Nodding his head, Junpei Yokoi said, "Yes, we do intend to cooperate with the Hegemony Club, but although Pokémon has concretized some things, I have no idea how to develop them into games. These still need to be conceived by Tajiri-san, so if we cooperate in the early stage, I just hope that Kimura-san can let us use the copyright to try the design of the game."

"Yes, Mr. Kimura, this is also my idea. At present, I don't have a complete idea of ​​the game design, but after reading your comics these days, I actually have some ideas, but the early design It involves copyright issues, so I hope to get your authorization." Tajiri Satoshi also said.

It turned out that he didn’t directly talk about any big cooperation. Hiroshi Kimura was somewhat disappointed. He thought that the manga was already so specific, and gamification was not a very simple matter. Now it seems that he really thought too simple. It would be strange if a game that took six or seven years to complete could be produced so easily.

However, Hiroshi Kimura also reacted quickly. Now Tajiri Satoshi directly wants to use "Pokémon" for game design, so doesn't it mean that he directly bound it? Once Tajiri Satoshi spent a lot of energy and The game has been produced with painstaking efforts. At that time, if he wants to redesign it, I am afraid it is unacceptable. At that time, he will ask for a little copyright share, so it should be no problem.

What we have to do now is to make this matter a reality, so Kimura Hiroshi immediately cheered up, and said happily, "It is our honor to be favored by Tajiri-san and Nintendo Co., Ltd. The previous copyright authorization does not have any Question, I can authorize Tajiri-san."

"Ah, that's really great. Thank you very much, Mr. Kimura. Please rest assured that we will pay the copyright fee." Hearing that Kimura Hiroshi agreed, Tajiri Satoshi said very excitedly.

It’s not okay to pay the copyright fee. If you pay it now, doesn’t that mean it’s a buyout. When you sell the game in the future, you will say that you have paid the copyright fee, so you still have to pay it.

So Kimura Hiroshi pretended to be very generous and said, "Ah, we don't need to pay the copyright fee. After all, we still don't know whether the game development will be successful. It would be bad to take money, and I and Tajiri-san have similar Pokémon. Meng's idea, then I must support it, then Tajiri-san can use it for free first, and wait until the game is successfully developed, then we will talk about copyright fees, what do you think?"

Let you use it for free first. When the game is successful, let’s talk about the copyright fee. Every time you sell a game, you will be given a share. Let you guide me what is free is the most expensive. What is Kimura Hiroshi’s idea? It's pretty dark.

But Yokoi Junhei and Tajiri Satoshi on the opposite side couldn't see Kimura Hiroshi's dark thoughts. They couldn't help it. They didn't know that "Pokémon" would become popular all over the world. Now their children have a simple idea. It's just an idea, they don't know what the game will be like by then.

So at this time, they just thought that Hiroshi Kimura was a pretty good person, and it was really too generous to let them use it for free, Tajiri Satoshi said very gratefully, "Thank you very much for that, Mr. Kimura, Please rest assured, I will definitely use all my abilities to develop this game, and I will definitely finish it."

"Ah, no thanks, just a small contribution. As for the game development, I would like to congratulate Tajiri-san on his success and make "Pokémon" a game that everyone loves." Hiroshi Kimura The blessing is quite real, because it is related to whether he can rely on this game to support his retirement in the future.
