After all, the performance of this machine is obvious to all who have played it. No matter how good the gameplay of the old Ren’s game is, the difference in picture and frame rate is undeniable.

Some games on NS, such as The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild, if the performance of the machine can be better, the frame rate of the game can be increased to 60 frames, or the requirement is lower and stabilized at 45 or 50 frames, then the experience will also be improved. Improve a lot.

Of course, these are just Yi Chen's beautiful fantasies. The reality is the function of NS, which cannot be saved at all.

With a small sigh, Yi Chen said: "Hollow Knight can still achieve a stable 60 fps now, but when the scale of the game developed in the future is large, the function of NS will not support us to play 60 fps games. The pressure is too much."

Although Yi Chen hasn't told everyone yet, he has already considered what game Hollow Knight will make next.

Persona, this game is barely okay for the functions of NS, but whether the NS version can be successfully developed will not be known until the development starts.

Soon, Bandai Namco's press conference began. This press conference was not held at the main venue, but at a branch venue, a small press conference held by Bandai Namco itself.

At the beginning, it was Namco's main event this time, Machine War 30.

As a radish fan, Yi Chen still likes the Robot Wars series very much, but it is basically impossible for Naihe to play a machine war that makes all machine war lovers like it. Every time there must be some shortage, or continue to use some The previous materials made the game less interesting.

Coupled with these years, the popularity of Zhanqi turn-based games has become increasingly sluggish. Even the super robot series with many fans around the world, the previous V, X, and T trilogy still did not achieve much sales results.

Looking at the battle animations of a series of debut works on the screen, although the appearance of V Gundam made Yi Chen very happy, he was still a little depressed.

"Well, after all, it's the limitation of the subject matter. It's impossible for the development team of the machine war to allocate much budget to increase the improvement of the new work, but the 30th one is not bad, so it's still playable."

Shinoda at the side asked curiously: "But didn't you make so much money selling toys and accessories?"

"No way, after the integration of Bandai and Namco, there are too many industrial projects, such as games, toys, peripherals, film and television, etc. Games are only a part of them, and machine warfare is another small part of this small part. You How much budget do you think you can have? For example, now I can use all the funds to develop a game. But if the size of the studio now expands to three development teams, then I have to separate myself and develop The development of different projects is mentioned. If you want to continue to make games before the game releases to recover the cost, you have to consider financing, but that will have another series of impacts.”

"Oh... I don't understand something, it feels so troublesome."

Shinoda shook his head at the beginning, exhaled and said, "I'd better play the game with peace of mind, and don't think about these things."

After watching the live broadcast of the machine battle, Shinoda Chu was not very interested in the follow-up, and went back to play games on his own side, while Hazuki Shizuku was going to go home.

When Hazuki Shizuku left, she took Hifumi, Yui Iijima, Mochizuki Hongye, and Ming Haiyan with her, as well as Mizukun who had been resting on Yichen's lap.

Qingye also ran for her life, she didn't want to stay in front of the camera any longer, so she took Ying Ningning together and went home from get off work.

Yi Chen saw that the time was almost up, and planned to turn off the live broadcast.

He said to the camera: "Okay, let's stop here for today's live broadcast. Anyway, there will be an online live broadcast at the Cologne exhibition tomorrow, and I will continue to broadcast the live broadcast. Let's take a look at the news of new games and chat by the way. , that’s all for today.”

After speaking, he turned off the live broadcast.

Stretching his waist, Yi Chen said to Shi Yu beside him: "It's getting late, do you want to go back?"

Shi Yu tilted her head with a smile, pointed to the other side and said: "There, it seems that I don't plan to rest yet."

Sure enough, on the program side, Haizi, Shinoda Chu, Toyama Ren and Yagami Guang are all still there.And not only a few of them, even Ying Lili didn't go back.

Yi Chen asked curiously: "Ying Lili, are you still going back? It's getting late, Aunt Sayuri will call."

Ying Lili was playing games with Hai Zi at the moment, when she heard Yi Chen's voice, she turned her head and said, "It's okay, I've already agreed with Shi Yu, we'll live with her today!"

"kindness?"

Yi Chen froze for a moment, then looked at the girl beside him, "Go back to live today?"

Shi Yu poked Yi Chen's cheek with a smile: "Why, can't you hold it?"

"Uh...that's not the case."

Yi Chen shook his head, "It's just that this seems to be the first time Ying Lili has spent the night at your house, right?"

"That's right, I'm actually looking forward to it. I think the chat at night will be very interesting."

Seeing that Shi Yu was so excited, Yi Chen stopped talking, turned off the computer, and planned to go up first.

Chapter 141 Get ready, it's time to go on vacation

Yi Chen didn't know what time the girls were making a fuss in the studio. After going back to take a shower and reading a book, Yi Chen went straight to rest.

The next morning, when Yi Chen got up, he found Shi Yu and Ying Lili were having breakfast in the living room.

"Good morning, Mr. Chen, breakfast is ready, let's eat after washing up."

While talking, Shiyu pointed to the breakfast on the coffee table, two sandwiches, probably made by Shiyu's mother.

Yi Chen moved his body, looked at the time and said, "You guys got up pretty early, it's only 08:30."

Ying Lili took a bite of the sandwich and said, "I can't help it. I was strangled awake by this guy in the morning, and he hugged me desperately. I had to sleep until at least nine o'clock during the holidays."

Yinglili, who recognizes the bed, doesn't know how to sleep, mainly sleeps with Shiyu, and is frightened by this guy.

Looking at Yi Chen, Ying Lili said with emotion: "You really worked hard, this guy's sleeping position is really not flattering."

"..."

The corners of Shi Yu's mouth twitched, and he said without hesitation, "Hmph, I don't know who it is, and I called my mother when I fell asleep in the middle of the night, so I have the nerve to say me."

"No road race, don't slander me!!!"

But seeing Ying Lili's blushing appearance, Yi Chen felt that there must be something real.

Shaking his head, Yi Chen left the living room to wash up.

After breakfast, the three of them went to the studio on the third floor together.

Walking into the elevator, Yi Chen looked at Ying Lili and asked, "Aren't you going back?"

"Aren't you going to work today? I told my mother, it's fine." Ying Lili waved her hand indifferently, "I originally wanted to ask Xue Nai to come with her, but she was called by her family again these days I'm back in Chiba, and I don't know what's going on, I'm so busy."

Shi Yu pointed her chin with her finger: "For example, a banquet or something? Or arrange a blind date for Xue Nai? Don't big families all have such a habit? Marriage or something. By the way, with your appearance, you should also Someone will come and want to marry your family?"

"Ugh?"

Ying Lili was stunned for a moment, and blushed and retorted, "How is it possible? My parents are not people who like such things. They are free in love themselves, so how could it be possible for me to marry? You think too much too much!"

"Is it like this? That's really a pity."

Shi Yu said with a regretful face, "At first, I was thinking about whether I would have the opportunity to see how you go on a blind date with someone you don't know. It should be very interesting."

"You bastard!!!"

Ying Lili waved her small fist angrily. If it wasn't for being in the elevator, she would have already taken action to teach the other party a lesson.

The elevator stopped on the third floor, Yi Chen stopped the two of them from making a fuss, and came to the studio together.

Opening the door of the studio, several people who stayed here last night have already woken up.

"Ah~~ woo..."

There was still sleepiness on his face, but Yagami Guang's mouth didn't listen, he picked up the bun made by Yuan Shanlun and took a big bite.

"Oh! Yichen, you guys are here, have you had breakfast yet?"

"We've eaten."

Pulling an empty chair and sitting down, Yi Chen looked at these people, "Sister Haizi and Miss Chu didn't go back last night? It's really rare."

Haizi nodded: "In the evening, a few of us formed a team to play games. We didn't go back because it was a bit late. We just slept here."

At this moment, Shinoda Chu had already eaten one bun, picked up the second one, took a bite and said, "Uuuuuuu...Anyway, we have some replacement clothes here, so don't worry at all. "

It seems that it is a bit beneficial to open the studio here. At least if you stay up late, you don't have to worry about going home at night, and you can just stay here for one night in the lounge.

Yuan Shanlun poured a cup of tea for the three of Yi Chen, and said with a little helplessness on his face: "I don't like to let them go to bed early, I woke them up early in the morning, otherwise I definitely have to sleep late, obviously today Still have to work."

After eating something, Yagami regained some energy, and said with a smile: "It's okay, these days at the Cologne Game Show, our game was announced and a demo was released. It's okay for everyone to relax a little bit. Yes Yichen, we should go to Izu to play next, right?"

"Yes, it is indeed time to prepare."

Yi Chen nodded, "I'll give you three days to prepare, and I'll go and book the hotel, and then we can set off. The Hollow Knight is released, and our development tasks can be slowed down for a few days, pay more attention Pay attention to the comments and suggestions made by the players on the demo version, and then you can go on vacation and relax."

Speaking of the trip to Izu, Yi Chen himself was quite happy, after all, he really didn't have a good rest during the whole summer vacation, at most he just went out with Shi Yu to have a stroll and relax.But it's summer now, even if you go out, it's still very hot.

But if you go to Izu, the sun, the beach, and bikinis can finally soothe your body and mind.

Shi Yu on the side took a sip of tea, and reminded with a smile: "When preparing things, don't forget the swimsuit, otherwise, if you buy it on the spot, there is a high probability that you won't be able to buy a satisfactory swimsuit."

"Yup!"

Shinoda came to his senses, clapped his hands and said, "I bought my swimsuit two years ago. I haven't worn it in the past year. I don't know if I can still wear it. Let's buy another one. Let's get off work." Let's go shopping together? Shiwa, Yinglili, have you bought it yet?"

Shi Yu nodded with a smile: "When I went out to play with Chen Jun, I already bought it, you go on your own."

Yi Chen also said at the side: "I'll get off work earlier these few days, so you guys have more time to prepare. By the way, Ying Lili, do you want to ask Yukinoshita if she wants to go with us?"

"Shino?"

Ying Lili thought for a while and said, "Indeed, this guy was very withdrawn when he was in school, and he didn't talk to people very much, let alone summer vacation. I'll call her later and ask Ask, it shouldn't be a big problem."

At 09:30, other people arrived one after another. When they heard that they were going to start preparing for the trip, they all began to discuss what they needed to buy.

Like any sunscreen is a must, and then there is a swimsuit.

After a discussion, the girls decided to go shopping together after get off work at night, and bought swimsuits and sunscreen first.

Ying Lili also contacted Xue Nai, and heard from Ying Lili that Xue Nai was not in a good mood, but she could still come out, and she would arrive in Tokyo in the afternoon.

Presumably Shi Yu really hit it off, and was dragged to a banquet between some families he didn't like, right?

Chapter 142 Eldest Miss and Second Miss

In the afternoon, Second Miss came to the studio, but she was not the only one.

"Hi everyone! I'm Yukino's younger sister, Yang Nai, please give me your advice!"

Standing beside the expressionless Yukino was a beautiful woman with shoulder-length hair and stylish clothes.

Yukino's sister?

No one expected that Xue Nai would come here with her sister.

But since she is Xue Nai's elder sister, even if this eldest lady is a bit dark-bellied, Yi Chen still welcomes her.

After getting acquainted for a while, Yang Nai sat on the chair and said in surprise: "I didn't expect that Xue Nai met so many people before I knew it. Mr. Yichen, when Xue Nai was in school, Thank you for taking care of me."

Yi Chen waved his hand: "You don't have to thank us, we didn't do anything. If you really want to thank you, you should thank Ying Lili. They are in the same club now. Shi Yu and I have more things to do on our own. After school, we often Not in the community classroom."

"Of course I know that."

Yang Nai smiled and looked at Ying Lili, "I was worried at first, after Yukino went to high school, especially when she came to Tokyo alone, whether she could make friends, now I feel relieved."

As for Xue Nao, at this moment, she has long ignored her sister who insisted on following, and ran to tease Shui Yun lying on the cat climbing frame.

Yang Nai looked around the environment of the studio, and said curiously: "On the way here, I searched for information about your studio, and I didn't expect Mr. Yichen to be so powerful. It has already been on the Cologne Game Show, and the future is boundless. By the way, do you need investment?"

Yi Chen asked with a smile: "Why, are you optimistic about our studio?"

"of course."

Yang Nai said in a positive tone, "Although I don't know the specific data, but after I have a brief understanding of the Steam platform, I also know that the sales volume of your first game Slaying the Spire is very high, so it has already reached 60. ?”

Seeing Yi Chen's surprised expression, Yang Nai knew that he had guessed right.

Snapping his fingers, Yang Nai said with a smile: "Because you developed the first game by yourself, and the income is shared by the platform, all of which are owned by you personally. I established my own studio and recruited these developers. Now the second volume of the game Hollow Knight, I searched on some forums, the evaluation of the demo version is very good, and the sales of the finished product will definitely not be bad. And I believe that if you can achieve this level, you will never be willing to only develop games of this scale, and the scale of this studio will definitely expand in the future. And if you want to expand, of course you need funds."

Yang Nai's analysis can be said to be 100% accurate.

However, Yi Chen was not too surprised. After all, as the eldest lady of the Xuexia family, she is different from the second lady Xue Nai, but she has received various family education since she was a child, and the company management is naturally included.

Moreover, Yang Nai is also very talented in business. Xue Nai said before in school that her sister has already participated in the operation of the family company.

Looking at the smiling Yang Nai, Yi Chen became curious.

"You are right, but why do you want to invest in my studio? I think since you know it, you should know that the profitability of the game industry is not stable. Like the Hollow Knight we are still developing, It will take more than half a year. Thinking about the games of other major manufacturers, it can be as short as one or two years, and as long as three to five years. The development of large-scale 3A games even starts with tens of millions of dollars. This is not like a mobile game. , can rely on krypton gold to return funds batch by batch. And even if it is a mobile game, only the top batch can survive. Every time a blockbuster mobile game is born, there are countless games behind it. .”

"Of course I know what you said."

Yang Nai put his arms around his arms and said calmly, "What if I said that I have taken a fancy to Mr. Yichen for your potential? From single-player development of games with sales exceeding 50, to the current studio development, logging into the Nintendo platform , These are enough to prove your excellence. I want to invest in you, of course not for short-term benefits, but for long-term, your growth ability in the next five or even ten years."

"Well...I'm going to be proud of what you said."

Scratching his cheek, Yi Chen let out a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you for your interest, Miss Yang Nai, but the scale of the studio is so big now, and the funds I have on hand are enough for the operation of the studio, and I really don't need funds. When the studio expands in the future, if you are still optimistic about the studio, then we can have a good talk at that time."

"OK, that's it."

Yang Nai showed a satisfied smile, she didn't expect to be able to succeed once, and today's more purpose is to see the friends Xue Nai knows, to get acquainted.

Looking at Yi Chen and Shi Yu beside him, Yang Nai said with a little regret: "It's a pity that Mr. Yi Chen is such a good boy, you have already been beaten by Shi Yu, otherwise I still wonder if I have a chance .”

"Sister, stop joking around."

At this moment, Xue Nai walked over with Shuiyun in her arms, looked at him and said, "I don't think the senior will be interested in you with your personality."

"Hey! Yukino, how can you say that?"

Yang Nai suddenly showed a sad expression, covered his face with his hands and said, "Do you really want to see my sister stay single forever?"
