Rebirth 86: I use games to kick open the door to the world.

Chapter 256 Quarrel fifth update

With Zuozhen's reminder, Sega immediately began to adjust its strategy.

Shifting the focus from before, we also started to hook up with TV Asahi to see if we could get a special program, preferably during the children’s favorite time period, which is the time when children have the most free time just after school.

This will be a little more difficult, but at least we've started trying.

Making these new plans, Gao Cunxiong even forgot to make an appointment with Zuo Zhen for a meal. Zuo Zhen also took advantage of this moment to sneak back to China to see how the procedures were progressing there.

Of course, you will definitely bring various souvenirs with you when you go back.

Some Japanese food, or some Japanese decorations, etc., were given to a group of people in the company one by one when they returned, including Yu Mengchen.

But as soon as he returned to the company, people in the company began to complain to Zuo Zhen.

The person who complained was a girl from the art team: "Boss, what's going on over there in Japan? Why did it suddenly start rioting?"

"What do you mean?"

"Look at the art materials they faxed over. It feels so different from the style of our game. Why is it so sloppy?"

On a piece of fax paper was a vertically drawn image of a character that looked really scrawled.

This image has more artistic conception, and Zuo Zhen can tell at a glance whose painting style it belongs to.

Yoshitaka Amano, the royal artist of Final Fantasy in its early years.

But...that's not right. Zuo Zhen remembers that there is no such person in Square in this parallel world.

Moreover, there are no such people in some painting industries, but why does the style of painting still exist?
Zuo Zhen suddenly felt as if he had overlooked something.

"Boss, this style of painting can't be used directly in the game, right?"

"Of course, but this style of painting is still very unique. Have you ever shown it to Yu Mengchen?"

"This... I haven't seen it yet. Mengchen locks herself up every day and studies the cover design of Final Fantasy. She doesn't have much time to come out."

"Then I understand. You guys put this thing away first. As for the painting style, don't worry about it until I confirm something."

Amano Yoshitaka's own painting style is indeed quite unconventional.

But the artist's own characteristics are also very strong. In the early years, Final Fantasy was popular, and Amano Yoshitaka's painting style also took a lot of credit.

Zuo Zhen really didn't expect that he couldn't find the person when he searched for it by name, but he seemed to have found it through the style of painting inadvertently.

Zuo Zhen immediately called Square in Japan again, wanting to ask who the person who drew the cover was.

No matter what, if given the chance, Zuo Zhen still hopes to retain some characteristics of Final Fantasy's previous life.

Amano Yoshitaka's artistic style is naturally one of the things that needs to be preserved.

I really didn’t expect that I had only paid attention to Square’s plot design progress before, but I hadn’t paid much attention to art and sound effects.

The current deputy minister in Japan did not expect that Zuo Zhen would call again as soon as he returned.

"President, you want to ask the name of the painter we have here? His name is Ariaki Ryuuki. Actually... he should be considered a college classmate of mine. I recruited him from the university's interest club. What happened to him? Did you have another quarrel with the head office about painting?"

"Well, yes, eh? No, what did you say just now? Do you know that there is a quarrel between Zhao Longgui and people from Huaxia?"

"Uh... I'm sorry about that president. Actually, I didn't want you to know. After all, Zhao Longgui's quarrel with the people at the headquarters might affect his work. After all, I personally recruited him. ,so……"

"So you want to take care of him a little bit." "Yes, I'm very sorry, president, I kind of neglected the company's rules."

The deputy chief was a little panicked. He began to worry that Zuo Zhen was here to cause trouble.

"How many times have they quarreled?" Zuo Zhen asked.

"This... I argue almost every time. You Zhaolonggui's painting style is more distinctive, but I actually think this should be regarded as one of the characteristics of Final Fantasy, but this art style may not be in line with what a commercial game should have. image of."

To put it bluntly, Yu Zhaolonggui's art style is more artistic, but does not have the commercial atmosphere of ordinary games.

"Call him here, I want to talk to him in person."

The deputy director immediately said: "President, if you also feel that this style of painting is inappropriate, I can tell him, and he will definitely be willing to listen to me. In fact, his quarrel with our people should also be due to poor language communication. , we will gradually overcome this, and we will work hard to learn Chinese."

Zuo Zhen shook his head: "This is not urgent, we can wait and see. Moreover, what I want to talk about is not whether his painting style is suitable. I just want to chat with him."

"OK then."

After all, Zuo Zhen is his boss, and even if his boss asks for it, there is nothing he can do as an employee.

Sorry, old classmate, I have tried my best to help you convince the president, but if it still doesn't work, I may not have any good solution. Maybe... I can help you recommend other game companies?
"I said, I don't want to talk. They don't like my work, so I'll just resign!"

Zuo Zhen, who was waiting for the call, vaguely heard a man on the other end of the phone shouting in displeasure.
Then the deputy director hurriedly lowered his voice and said: "Keep your voice down! We can still have a good talk with the president. Don't be so pessimistic. The president has already said that he is just talking to you and not mentioning your painting style." bad."

"Then I do it for your sake."

Click, the phone on the other end picked up.

"Hello, I'm Youzhao."

"Oh Youzhao, I'm so glad to hear your voice."

"President, are you talking to me about the paintings I painted? If you are not satisfied, I might as well resign."

"Huh? Why did you resign?"

"Aren't you dissatisfied?"

"You are preconceived. I have never said that I am dissatisfied with your paintings. I have never even seen you before this."

"..."

There was a sudden silence on the other side.

The other party seemed to realize that what he just said was a bit ambiguous.

"Then President, what do you mean..."

"I like your art style very much. It's beautiful, dreamy, and surreal. Oh, by the way, there's a bit of your Japanese and Western fantasy art in this style, right?"

"Huh? Why do you..."

Youzhao's expression on the other end of the phone started to look a little exciting.

The deputy chief who was not far away was always worried and couldn't let go.

What on earth is President Showa talking about?
Will the president fire him?It’s really annoying!
