Hong Kong Island Comic Master

Chapter 475 Game Project
Neon Jingu-mae, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo is one of the most prosperous areas in Tokyo, with high-rise buildings rising everywhere.

There is one building among them. Although the building itself is not famous, there is a company here that is famous throughout Neon, Asia and even the world, and that is Capcom Co., Ltd.

The founder of this famous game company, Kenzo Motomoto, was taking Li Wannian to visit the company with a fawning look on his face.

Since Li Wannian successfully acquired Capcom in 1983, Li Wannian has never had much control over the company, and has rarely interfered with the company's main business. At most, at the beginning of the acquisition, he asked them to produce "Street Fighter" "game.

However, when they were halfway through production, they turned their attention to the game "2D Brawl". Relying on Li Wannian's fame and super-high operability, the game became an instant success.

But then they also made Street Fighter.

After all, the operating systems of these two games are essentially the same. At most, they just have different skins.

At the beginning, this game could only be regarded as tepid. The limelight has always been behind "2D Brawl" and has little influence.

However, starting from the year before last, this game suddenly exploded in the European and American countries, with sales rising rapidly, and the profits it brought even exceeded that of "2D Brawl".

After the company's analysis, it became clear that "2D Brawl" is ultimately a fan-oriented game, and most players who like to play this game are fans of Li Wannian's comics.

But Li Wannian’s comic Omi is still a niche culture after all, and most gamers are not fans of Li Wannian’s comics.

Therefore, after Omi removed the fan filter of "2D Brawl", its sales were not good. On the contrary, "Street Fighter", a game with a simple plot, became more popular in Omi.

Before you knew it, things got to the point where even Capcom couldn't ignore Street Fighter's influence.

"Li Sang, this is the latest "Street Fighter 2" developed by our company. I believe that this game can completely surpass the previous generation!"

In a research room of Capcom, Kenzo Kenzo and Li Wannian were standing in front of a game console. Kenzo Kenzo was introducing it to Li Wannian.

"Well, very good!"

Street Fighter 2 is often ranked among the greatest video games in gaming history. It is widely regarded as a pioneer of fighting games and is still considered by many purists to be the best in the genre. example.

However, the game in front of me is not "Street Fighter 2" in the original time and space, it just has a similar name.

This is because as early as the creation of "Street Fighter 1", Li Wannian had already transplanted the operating system and many features of "Street Fighter 2" into "Street Fighter 1" in advance.

But this does not mean that today’s second generation has no outstanding features!

What surprised Li Wannian was that this second-generation game supplemented the weaknesses of the original game without any help from him, and also added many characters with Omi faces for the Omi market.

The creator of this game is really talented!
"This is Yasudaro, the planner and character designer of this game. This guy is simply a genius!"

Kenzo Senmoto brought a short, fat young man wearing glasses to Li Wannian.

"Hello, Yasudaro!"

"Hello, Mr. Li! Nice to meet you!"

Yasudaro was very excited when he saw Li Wannian. Facing Li Wannian's right hand, he quickly stretched out his hands to hold it!
Yasudaro, who is only 25 years old this year, can be said to have grown up watching Li Wannian's comics, and also because of him.

Because he was influenced by Li Wannian's comics when he was in college, he dropped out of the Commercial Design Department of Tokyo Designer College in 1984 and chose to become an artist. At the beginning, because he had no academic certificate, he was just a temporary worker at Capcom's Tokyo branch.

But as we all know, there are ruthless people among temporary workers. Soon after, his talent was discovered by Kenzo Shikimoto, and he soon entered the design department and became the leader of the design department.

When "Street Fighter 1" was produced, he was really a participant, but by this second generation, he was completely the project leader.

You know, until this year, he was only 25 years old.

"You've done a good job, and you are indeed the talent that President Qianben has chosen!"

"Thank you, Mr. Li, I have always been your fan. Can you sign your autograph for me?"

Faced with Li Wannian's praise, Yasuda Lang was very excited.

"Hahaha, no problem!"

Li Wannian was very impressed by Yasudaro's exaggerated words.

Although Li Wannian has met many celebrity fans over the years, he has never had too few of these celebrity fans.

After signing Yasuda Lang's signature, they came to Kenzo Shikimoto's office and started talking about business.

"In addition to visiting this time, I want to understand your company's current technical capabilities!"

Having said this, Senmoto Kenzo and Yasudaro sat upright at the same time and pricked up their ears.

What does it take to understand technical skills? Clearly they have a job to do!
"Mr. Li, what do you think of our company's technical capabilities?"

"Hahaha, relax, I trust your technology, but I don't know if your personnel reserves are enough to support several projects at the same time?"

"At present, the production of "Street Fighter 2" has been completed. In addition to another project, the technical staff we can currently deploy can support the production of two large-scale projects at the same time. Any more will probably delay time!"

Kenzo Shikimoto did not take credit for the project and directly took over the project. Instead, he carefully evaluated his company's capabilities and gave the most accurate figures.

Li Wannian was very satisfied with Kenzo Kenzo's answer. Of course, he also knew that the other party was a person who knew how to measure.

If the other party really accepts everything regardless of the project, then Li Wannian will doubt Kenzo Kenzo's ability.

Such people are either bad or stupid!
Either way, it is impossible to establish a game company like Capcom!

"You also know that "Street Fighter" is a game adapted from comics, and what I want you to do this time is also a game adapted from comics!"

"What manga? Bleach or Naruto?"

Yasudaro is indeed a fan of Li Wannian, and immediately thought of several of Li Wannian's comics.

"No, the games I plan to let you make this time are "Pokémon" and "Pokémon"!
