Chapter 331 E3 begins! Three battles with Comella!
Exploded!
As the final name of "Resident Evil 7" comes out!
The barrage area of the video exploded all of a sudden!
The dense barrage was like a stormy sea, instantly covering the entire screen!
‘OHHHHHHH—’
? Wardfa! ’
‘Oops, I thought it was a derivative of PT at first! It turned out to be biochemical! ’
‘That’s so right! It’s so right, I’m so confused! It has both the horror flavor of PT and the biochemical feeling of Sanshang Shinji! This is **** awesome! ’
‘The wind of gold is awesome! The old thief is awesome! ’
‘Ahhhhhh—The King of Horror + Super Horror IP! I can't even imagine how powerful this biochemical game is! ’
‘This trailer gave me goosebumps! It’s so weird! That’s it! ’
‘A biohazard controlled by an old thief! I would **** call it the end of anchors! ’
‘@PewDiepee, get ready pew, your grandpa Sam is back! ’
‘looooooooool…’
‘This is definitely the main theme of this year’s E3 Golden Wind! ’
‘Oh my God, the latest Resident Evil game produced by Sam is so crazy…’
‘Good boy, here’s a big one for you guys, right? ’
‘I can’t wait…’
‘…’
Without a doubt!
As the recognized "King of Horror" among the players, Gu Sheng immediately caused an uproar in the gaming circle as soon as the news was announced that he would be responsible for the Resident Evil game!
and!
It can also be seen from the promotional video that this Resident Evil game will change the main tone of the game that has gradually moved towards an action shooting style since the fourth generation. It will bring the time back to 20 years ago and refocus the attention on ' The sense of terror is on!
For a time, the crowd was excited, players were screaming and cheering, full of expectations, and the news exploded instantly!
And what exploded with the release of this trailer was, of course, Masaichi Nakamura’s brain!
resident Evil!
This name, like a heavy hammer, hit him on the head, making him feel cold from his heels to Tianling Gai!
It is true that in the promotional video of Golden Wind, whether it is the horrifying image of the clouds and mountains or the scalp-numbing female nursery rhyme, it is enough to make people feel frightened.
but!
For Nakamura, the appearance of the name "Resident Evil" is definitely a more terrifying existence than the promotional video!
Shinji Mishō’s masterpiece, a global phenomenon-level horror game IP!
Although they have heard that Golden Wind is actively in contact with a horror game IP, it seems that they want to purchase the copyright and participate in the E3 electronic entertainment exhibition held in Los Angeles this September.
But Nakamura never expected it!
Golden Wind's group of lunatics actually found Sanshang Shinji, who is notoriously difficult to deal with in the industry!
You need to know!
Before this, Comella had also coveted the super IP of Biochemical for a long time. Originally, they thought that Sanshang Studio would announce its disbandment after Resident Evil 6, and they could finally develop this top-notch IP to continue to attract money.
I never expected it.
This Sanshang Shinji is like a stone in a latrine - smelly and hard.
Not to mention talking about the price, Sanshang Shinji didn't even give them a chance to introduce himself. Either he was feeling unwell today and couldn't see the guests, or he wouldn't be at home to pack up his fishing rods and go fishing tomorrow. Got it!
result!
Today!
Golden Wind actually contacted Shinji Sanshang, and not only did they contact him, they even... bought the copyright of Resident Evil? !
At this year's E3, we will collide with the world's top horror game IP Resident Evil directed by Gu Sheng!
Masaichi Nakamura felt that the blood all over his body was running cold!
In an instant, an extremely bad feeling arose from his heart.
He still remembered the tragic situation the last time they and Comela collided with the Golden Wind in a horror game.
You must know that at that time, Silent Hill was already quite famous in the market with the groundbreaking atmosphere created by the trial version of PT.
But in the end, Gu Sheng relied on an original new IP "Escape" to smash the "Silent Hill" they spent a lot of money to create.
This time, not only did they not regress, but they also evolved, becoming a super IP of the level of Resident Evil!
Haunted.
Nakamura Masaichi is not a fool. He knows very well that Gu Sheng's title as the "King of Terror" is definitely not something he talks about casually.
If time could be turned back, he would never issue a military order to President Kamikoshi Kagemasa just for the sake of the title of "Head of the Three Imperial Families". He would take advantage of this E3 to reverse Silent Hill's decline and become a classic IP.
It’s a pity that there is no if.
Now, the company has listed "Silent Hill: Restart" as a key project, and it is the absolute highlight of this year's E3 Gamera.
The huge investment of more than 289 million US dollars is an affirmation and confidence in his "Night Owl" project, and it also carries the highest expectations of the company group!
He has no way out.
So, after panicking, Nakamura Masaichi forced himself to calm down.
“Don’t panic, Nakamura, the problem is not as serious as you think,”
Nakamura Masaichi comforted himself:
“There were rumors at the beginning that the starting price of the total copyright for Resident Evil would be upwards of $500 million,”
“In other words, even if it is conservatively estimated, Golden Wind has paid at least 500 million U.S. dollars for the acquisition of the Resident Evil IP..."
This is definitely a price that is unbearable for the capital flow of gold.
So they must have carried out related fund borrowing.
But as a result, their game development costs will naturally be tightened accordingly.
After all, even the cost of acquiring copyright is beyond their affordability, so their development expenses will definitely be even more stretched.
The Golden Wind is really getting crazier and crazier.
It’s so crazy that the previous studs can no longer satisfy them, and they even started to borrow money to stud!
This is simply a life-threatening blow.
Obviously.
Golden Wind has put all its treasures into this global horror game IP.
“…and in this way, once they fail, the blow to the Golden Wind will be absolutely devastating,”
At the afternoon board meeting, Masaichi Nakamura stood in front of the projection screen and vowed:
“And this is also the biggest hidden danger of the manufacturer Golden Wind—”
“Even though they can succeed many times, their repeated success gives them too blind confidence and prompts them to act even crazier,”
“And as the saying goes, ‘A arrogant soldier will be defeated’,”
“After countless successes, they automatically ignore the hidden dangers of devastating failure,”
“As long as we seize this opportunity, we will be able to severely damage their foundation,”
"so…"
Speaking of this.
Masaichi Nakamura took a deep breath and looked around at the directors and senior management present:
“I am applying to increase the budget of “Silent Hill: Reboot” to $350 million,”
“And the Golden Wind will pay a heavy price for their arrogance!”
good!
Masaichi Nakamura was indeed frightened. But equally, such fear also fueled his ambition!
You must know that the IP of Resident Evil now has a very high status in the gaming circle!
If you can really beat "Resident Evil 7" with a "Silent Hill: Restart".
Then not only will the name of the 'King of Horror' change hands, but he will also be recorded in history. With "Silent Hill", he will become the world's top game director with "Silent Hill", even more accomplished than Shinji Sanshou!
At that time, let alone the head of the three imperial families.
Looking around the world, I will be a unique designer who can create a sect!
The reason why Nakamura Masaichi dared to think so was naturally because he had something to rely on.
First of all, Golden Wind has spent huge sums of money to purchase the copyright. At this moment, it is cash-strapped and its development funds are limited. This is a sure thing. In this way, it can completely crush Biochemical 7 in terms of industrial quality through high industrial standards.
Secondly, although he is very ambitious, he is not arrogant like Yamamoto and Koizumi.
They looked down on Golden Wind, a "small workshop that was not listed on the market," and they looked down on Gu Sheng, a "designer in the barren land of games," from the bottom of their hearts.
But he is different.
He is very aware of the creativity of Golden Wind, and he is even more aware that Gu Sheng's achievements in games are not trivial.
He is willing to study with great concentration, and even study and imitate without being ashamed to ask his subordinates.
It is precisely because of this that he reversed the decline of Comela with "Night Owl" and successfully joined the ranks of Yusan studios.
And this time.
Facing Gu Sheng's "Resident Evil 7", he decided to repeat his old tricks and study Gu Sheng's "posthumous work" in Comela - "Silent Hill PT".
Just wait and see, the golden wind.
Arrogance will eventually cost you dearly...

"Collecting game news and focusing on what players love, hello everyone, I am Tiantian, a reporter from "Tiantian Youbao"!"
“Welcome everyone to watch today’s special live broadcast—the live broadcast of the first day of the [14th E3 Global Electronic Entertainment Exhibition]!”
September.
Autumn is crisp, the summer heat has gradually dissipated, and the temperature is pleasant during the autumnal equinox. The E3 global electronic entertainment exhibition, one of the four major game exhibitions in the world, was held as scheduled in Los Angeles, the United States, on the other side of the ocean.
There were crowds of people outside the venue. Countless young people gathered at the entrance of the West Venue of the International Convention and Exhibition Center and looked into the venue.
As the royal location reporter of Tiantian Travel News, Tiantian’s demeanor remains the same, professional and friendly. At this moment, he is introducing to the camera:
“Hello, audience friends, you can see that we are now at the entrance of the Los Angeles International Convention and Exhibition Center!”
“So today, the largest west venue of the convention and exhibition center will host the annual E3 electronic entertainment exhibition as usual,”
“As one of the largest video game exhibitions in the world,”
“The scale of this E3 exhibition is unprecedented, with more than 600 groups of game manufacturers and studios participating in the exhibition, which is the most in history,”
“During the five-day exhibition, it is expected that more than 250,000 players will visit and experience it…”
Among the sea of people, Tiantian’s voice seemed to be somewhat suppressed.
As she said, players have been looking forward to this exhibition for a long time.
As the first global game exhibition in the second half of the year’s game blowout season, this E3 can be said to be full of masterpieces.
In terms of sports games, Kol from Neon once again focused his attention on football and launched the sequel to "Peak Green 2: Focus", which was the flagship game of Yiyoux2 at the same time as Titanfall.
In terms of racing games, Fury from China has also conducted in-depth research on the sensational Peak Nation and launched its first new extreme racing game - "Ridge Moto"
As for shooting games, there are an endless stream of FPSs from major manufacturers and studios.
After all, the second-generation FPS mode pioneered by Golden Wind: Quest for Survival has now become mainstream, and PUBG after it created the battle royale category. Titanfall is still talked about as the pinnacle of storytelling in shooting games. Tao, as for Overwatch, it is the standard answer for the perfect integration of skills and shooting.
Manufacturers from all walks of life don’t even need to think carefully.
As long as you do a little research on one of the works of Golden Wind, you can create a game that players are happy to buy in a familiar style.
“…manufacturers from all walks of life gather here to add splendor to the start of this year’s gaming blowout season,”
After some introduction, Tiantian changed the subject:
“Of course! In addition to the above-mentioned manufacturers that we are familiar with and look forward to,”
“In this E3, there are two other manufacturers that are particularly eye-catching,”
“They had fought against each other more than once before,”
“And this time, both parties have also used their own special skills and launched their own flagship masterpieces of the same type. They want to compete with each other on the basis of this game exhibition,”
“They are Nakamura Studio from Neon Comela, and Golden Wind Game Company from China!”
As soon as this statement came out!
The barrage is naturally very hot!
“Resident Evil 7” vs. “Silent Hill 2”
Nowadays, this ‘focus war’ is no secret in the gaming circle.
After all, since Golden Wind released its first trailer, within two weeks, Comella also released its first trailer.
What is unexpected is that the quality of "Silent Hill 2" produced by Nakamura this time is actually quite high.
Not only is the entire trailer filled with a familiar horror atmosphere, but some of the actual footage included can also make people exclaim that it is an explosion of industrial quality.
For a time, it became really confusing as to which one was better and which one was worse.
‘I order you to proceed quickly! Don’t be ignorant of praise! ’
‘The game page has been logged on the platform, please wait until the demo is launched to unlock it’
‘This year’s battle is so big, my wallet is going to suffer’
“Indeed, I have already pre-ordered the Ridgeline Motorcycle. I originally planned to buy it with Biochemical 7, but the old thief didn’t even open the pre-order.”
‘I feel that this generation of biochemistry is quite right, there is less tug-tuk and more horror’
‘I now very much suspect that the old thief’s biochemistry is not as simple as the tug-tuk missing, but that the tut-tuk is completely gone (dog head)’
‘Hahahahahaha indeed, after all, there are no guns in ghost phobia, PT and escape’
'wipe! There’s no need to do things so absolutely, right? ’
‘This wave of Silent Hill in Comera seems to be of good quality, I wonder if it can beat the old thief’
‘Indeed, after all, the designer of this film’s previous work “Night Owl” was pretty good and quite good.’
‘If you think about it, this is also the third battle with Comella’
‘It is said that the cost of this “Silent Hill: Reboot” is over 2.5 billion yuan. It’s really hard for Xiao Huang to say this.’
‘Mist grass—2.5 billion? Is that outrageous? ’
‘By the way, Xiao Huang seems to have never announced the cost of Biochemical 7’
‘It’s probably indispensable, the biochemical IP alone is worth a lot of money’
‘Mr. Ou: Don’t ask, just ask’
‘Hahahahahahaha, this is very embarrassing...’
‘Fuck! It has been carried out, carried out, brothers! ’
‘…’
As a line of eye-catching bullets floated by amid the commotion!
It’s nine o’clock early in Luoshanji time!
One of the four major game exhibitions in the world, it is the second international game exhibition that Golden Wind participated in, and the global stage where it competes with Comella for the third time—
The 14th E3 global electronic entertainment exhibition!
Carry out! ! —
PS: It may be a bit weird to say it, but except for me and the baby, everyone in my family has Yang. Buzi has to be a full-time nanny today, and I will make up for it tomorrow by one chapter.
