Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

"Really, President? You're not kidding me, are you?" A surprised voice came from the other end of the phone.

He had been waiting for Zhuyouxing to develop an independent game for a long time, but there had been no progress, which made him somewhat anxious.

It was because of Zhu Youxing that he developed a particular fondness for indie games.

He also enjoys the feeling of striking gold in indie games, and occasionally discovering some truly amazing indie games is one of his pleasures.

Zhu Youxing said, "Of course it's true, but I still plan to rest for a week and then study the development of the new indie game properly."

When it comes to new indie games, BambooStar has actually found a direction.

However, this time we'll probably need someone's help.

It would be very slow to develop if I were to do it all by myself.

What Zhuyouxing wanted to develop was a game called Dead Cells.

This is the culmination of Metroidvania games. I was quite addicted to this game for a while, and it's another benchmark for indie games.

However, I'll have to wait until I've had some rest before considering any of these things.

We can't be immersed in work every day; it's necessary to relax a bit.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the ocean in the United States, Jobs had successfully completed his month-long filming project.

Immediately after the event ended, Jobs' former agent contacted him.

Ever since Jobs's reputation plummeted, this agent has become less attentive to him.

Later, the agency reassigned the agent to another new actor, and Job received even less attention.

This is understandable, and Jobs could also express his understanding.

As an actor who has already lost his fame, I really don't deserve to be valued by the agency anymore.

I may think that way, but I still feel somewhat disappointed.

But everything changed again.

The source of all this change was a game: Metal Gear Solid.

Metal Gear is currently the most popular video game.

This is not only because of the game's innovative stealth gameplay, but also because of its very interesting storyline.

The game's story revolves around nuclear weapons, and also includes some reflections on contemporary warfare, as well as some very prescient predictions.

For example, the internet will inevitably succeed in the future, and after its success, people will become potential perpetrators of harm to others due to the unrestricted social interaction on the internet, and cyber violence will gradually take shape.

These are all descriptions from Metal Gear Solid.

Before Metal Gear Solid was described, no one had realized the current state of the internet.

However, after the description of Metal Gear was revealed, many netizens suddenly realized that it seemed to be true.

As a result, the game received a wave of positive reviews.

This game is not only fun and visually appealing, but it also explores the current state of society, adding a touch of humanism to the game.

This is exactly what those artistic people want, so they rave about the game.

Metal Gear thus gained wider popularity.

Job, who played Snake, became one of the beneficiaries of the game.

His salary may not be particularly outstanding, but his fame has increased dramatically as a result, which is a truly unexpected surprise.

Then, his agency came knocking again, and his agent became much more eager.

This time, the agent coordinated with Youxing Electronic Entertainment, and immediately after finishing filming, they took Job to attend various player meet-and-greets.

Years later, Jobs had almost forgotten what it felt like to take the stage.

Today is the first player meet-up, and the venue is a small theater.

Normally, this small theater only sees two to three hundred visitors a day.

But today, at this very moment, more than a thousand players have already come to visit.

The small theater simply couldn't handle so many people, which caught the organizers off guard.

This player meet-up was held in a relatively remote area, and the organizers didn't expect that many people would attend.

However, they overlooked a significant variable: the emergence of Jobs.

When it was announced at the event that Jobs would be starring in the film, the players' enthusiasm immediately surged, and the small theater simply couldn't hold so many people.

However, it's difficult to change the venue now, so we'll just have to make do with what we have.

"Job, you look nervous. Relax."

Backstage, the agent was constantly busy taking care of Job. As Job became famous, his income also increased, so he was naturally very enthusiastic.

Seeing Job's nervousness, he comforted him with concern.

Job let out a long sigh: "To be honest, I'm a little worried."

"Worry?"

"So many people have come to support me, I'm worried they'll be disappointed when they see what I look like."

"That... is indeed possible."

Job's scars were indeed very noticeable and severely affected his appearance.

Although the players said they didn't mind, he himself was still a little bothered.

The agent thought for a moment and then said, "Since you're already here, do you want me to cover up your face with some foundation?"

Job shook his head: "No, there's no point in doing this."

After much deliberation, Job decided to appear in his original appearance. He wanted to present himself completely, which was also a way of showing respect to his supporters.

Although he still worries that his appearance might scare away the players who support him.

"But if this frightens your supporters, your hard-earned fame will plummet again," the manager suddenly said with concern.

"Don't worry, Mr. Job, believe me, you don't need any disguise. Players will love you just the way you are."

At this moment, a staff member approached Job. He was the person in charge of contacting Youxing Electronic Entertainment for this project, and he had a confident smile on his face.

"Yeah……"

Job was somewhat unsure.

"Anyway, it's too late to do anything now, so we might as well be honest with the players."

Ding!

A voice rang out; it was the sound of the actors getting ready to take their positions.

Job was also invigorated; he was finally going to take charge himself.

At this moment, he cleared his mind, put his worries and tension to the back of his mind as much as possible, and then took a deep breath.

The agent is now getting a little nervous.

He was afraid that his promising future would slip away again.

Job slowly opened his eyes, his gaze gradually becoming sharp.

It seems that at this moment he is Snake himself.

Then, he stepped onto the stage, and the spotlight instantly focused on Job.

Inside the small theater, the previously noisy atmosphere instantly quieted down upon Job's arrival, followed by a burst of cheers.

"Snake! It's Snake! Snake alive!"

Snake, we love you!

"Please don't say such disgusting things! Snake, we like you!"

Chapter 646 Future Direction

646

The success of a game brought a celebrity whose fame was fading back to the top, something many people never expected.

Not only him, but also the motion capture actors for the main character Snake, several other villains and supporting characters are also very popular, just not as popular as Snake.

However, they all had the same effect: they were originally unknown, but their fame increased greatly because of this game.

Snake received at least ten advertising offers just after the player meet-up that day, including an advertising promotion from a major brand.

Snake once thought his scars would be his biggest obstacle, and he even became depressed because of them, but he managed to control them well and did not let them cause him to have an emotional breakdown.

But now he no longer needs to worry that his scars will cause any obstacles.

This scar has now become the source of all his fame.

The players didn't mind the scars on his face at all; on the contrary, they were even more excited when they saw them.

Because this looks more like Snake!

When players learned about Job's own experiences, they showed even greater sympathy.

They felt that Job didn't deserve such treatment. His acting skills were truly exceptional, especially in the many films and television series he had recently participated in. Although his roles were not large, every appearance of Job was a highlight, and his acting was so natural that it was truly remarkable.

Of course, more importantly, Job is the protagonist in their favorite game.

He is the living Snake.

Job was quite satisfied.

At least everything about me has been recognized.

Although he may become a fixed character recognized by players in the future, unless he only performs motion capture and voice acting instead of face modeling.

But that's enough.

With his looks, there's no way he could possibly pursue anything more.

As for their peers, many of them now express envy.

Some people even called that day to congratulate him, and also subtly inquired whether Jobs had any other plans for video game performances, and whether they could be included, as they also wanted to get on board with the video game bandwagon.
