Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

There are also people who can create movies, presenting wonderful images to everyone in the world.

In Aiko's mind, Takeyusei is such a person.

A super genius who pioneered an industry and enabled it to grow rapidly under his leadership.

Just like the people who create movies and all sorts of novel technologies.

Those are top-tier beings that are extremely rare, even among billions of people.

Compared to the god that Kazumi firmly believed in, Aiko was more rational, and she was more convinced of the existence of talent.

"Hey, just do it! You've been so lucky before. I don't think I'll win a ticket, but you definitely will!"

"Not interested."

Aiko continued to stare at her notebook, racking her brains for inspiration.

At this moment, Kazumi suddenly had a bright idea and said, "By the way, haven't you been struggling with what art form to use for your next game? Actually, I have an idea right now. Do you want me to help you?"

As agreed by the three, each of them would lead the development of the game once a year.

Now it's Aiko's turn to develop the game.

She has confirmed that the game she is developing will be a new Metroidvania-style game.

Aiko herself was very interested in this type of game and had experience in making them. Coupled with her exceptional learning ability, she felt that she could definitely create a Metroidvania-style game that was no less excellent than Dead Cells.

However, she got stuck on the art design.

This kind of thing could have been handled directly by Kazumi.

Because she is more talented in creativity.

This time, however, Aiko took the lead. Unless Aiko asked, Kazumi and Oto-chan would not offer their opinions. This was also an agreement between the three of them.

However, Aiko is now in a very complicated state.

"Then tell me."

In the end, Aiko gave up on conceiving the art and worldview herself.

This is really not something I'm good at.

"Hehe, it's actually very simple. I had already thought of a similar setting before. How about we use Norse mythology as the background this time and create a Metroidvania-style Norse mythology battle story?"

"Norse mythology..."

Aiko fell into deep thought, then her eyes gradually brightened.

Yeah, why didn't I think of that before?

"Actually, this wasn't my initial idea. It's actually related to Teacher Zhuyou."

Ok?

Aiko snapped out of her surprise and looked at Kazumi with a puzzled expression.

Kazumi said shyly, "When we were creating Dead Cells, Takeyu mentioned that the background of Metroidvania-type games is very similar to the myths in human history. It seems that these myths and legends were created to create Metroidvania or roguelike games. Any excerpt from a myth can become the core of this type of game."

The constant cycle of death and growth, gradually defeating one enemy after another, perfectly matches the various thrilling and deeply moving stories in mythology.

Is this another idea from Teacher Zhuyou...?

Indeed, the differences between people are quite significant.

Aiko suddenly felt a little lost.

"That's a great idea. So, as agreed, bring the notebook over, and I'll help you with the lottery."

He Mei immediately handed over the laptop happily and said, "Just like this, simply click to participate in the lottery, get one entry, and then you'll get the result. If you don't win, you can get more entries by sharing, and that way you'll..."

Ding ding ding! Congratulations! You have won a first-day ticket to Star Park!

Before Kazumi could finish speaking, Aiko had already clicked the lottery button, and then the next scene showed a pop-up window announcing that she had won the grand prize.

Kazumi looked at Aiko as if she were a monster, while Aiko remained calm and showed no surprise.

You still don't believe in metaphysics?

Chapter 981 Various Big Shots

981

"Congratulations on the official opening of your amusement park!"

"Your paradise is truly amazing. Honestly, I don't want to leave this wonderful real-life game world!"

"Here, this is my gift, specially to celebrate the opening of your paradise."

Inside a castle-like building within the Starry Sky Park, a small-scale opening ceremony is underway.

The people here are well-known figures from all over the world, as well as Japanese government officials.

These officials can enjoy the park's unique services, with Toad-themed attendants constantly serving them and even saying some cute lines.

On the other hand, these officials can also take the opportunity to exchange ideas with some well-known overseas business figures present here.

If they can attract one or two foreign investors during this opportunity, then they won't have to worry about their performance in the next few years.

Let's see who the prominent business figures are here.

Hack Brown, the current CEO of Morgan Stanley, founder of Brown Entertainment, one of the owners of the American media giant Gintosh, and the current CEO of Facebook...

There are also several football club owners from European football leagues.

These owners are all very wealthy; after all, people who can afford to support a top-tier team are definitely not ordinary.

Normally, these Japanese officials would never meet so many top business figures at once.

Even if I were to attract them in the name of the Japanese government, it would probably be difficult to sway most of them.

However, Bamboo Star has such influence.

It's truly unbelievable how quickly Youxing Electronic Entertainment has grown to such an incredible level.

Zhu Youxing wasn't particularly interested in the people who had been invited; he wasn't the type to make a big fuss.

However, the amusement park he was about to open was the world's first video game amusement park, which was quite significant.

Therefore, on the unanimous advice of everyone in the company, Zhu Youxing extended invitations in his own name to many business celebrities at the event venue.

And then these people actually came.

All of them had received some favors or benefits from Zhu Youxing, and Zhu Youxing had long since formed a bond of mutual interest with them.

Several club owners in European football leagues now also run their own esports clubs and hold a certain position in the esports market. Players from these esports clubs often win key esports titles.

The Morgan Group, with whom they had a long-standing good relationship, experienced a period of relative indifference and little commercial cooperation. However, through Lorenzo's coordination, the Morgan Group re-established a partnership with Yuxing Electronic Entertainment to jointly counter Mikelford's offensive in mobile internet and mobile smart products.

To date, Mikefu's mobile internet market share is less than 20%, which is already considered quite successful by Zhu Youxing.

In this world, an electronics company that could potentially grow to be even more formidable than Apple in the original world can only occupy a small share due to his interference, while his own Facebook holds a much larger share. This is already a great success.

Completely eliminating them is unrealistic. Mickafe is entirely backed by American capital, and even considering the need to protect domestic companies and markets, they would prevent Yuxing Electronics Entertainment from attempting to seize all of Mickafe's market share.

So now it's like they're taking what they can get, leaving the US government speechless. They can only say that Mikefu failed under normal market competition.

The US government, meanwhile, began to hope that another American company similar to Mikeford would emerge in the future, giving it another opportunity to forcefully seize the business territory of Yuxing Electronic Entertainment.

Let's return to the few important business figures present at the meeting.

Hack Brown, the owner of Brown Entertainment.

This is an old friend.

In the past, he founded Lyrta, which is practically the Atari of this world.

Hack Brown is also the more calm and composed Atari owner in this world.

If things had gone according to plan, Huck Brown might have been able to carve out a niche for himself in the gaming industry and rival the video game console business of Yuxing Electronics Entertainment.

Unfortunately, the shareholders of Lilleda at the time were not united, but instead tried to squeeze Huck Brown out.

In the end, Huck Brown left the company he founded and later founded Brown Entertainment, which was basically entirely funded by himself.

This time, he no longer had the ability to develop game consoles, but he still had the ability to develop games. So, in the decades that followed, his team continued to produce a variety of high-quality games.

The most well-known of these is the Modern Warfare series.

This modern warfare game is very similar to the original world, but it places more emphasis on the single-player campaign mode. Even though the rewards for the online mode are increasing dramatically, it hasn't changed Huck Brown's decision to continue producing high-quality single-player campaign content, making it a rather refreshing option.

Zhu Youxing regretted that the original Call of Duty series was gradually abandoning the single-player campaign and embracing the online mode.

From a business perspective, this is understandable. However, from the perspective of a player, I still hope to see a more interesting single-player campaign mode.

Besides the Modern Warfare series, Brown Entertainment also owns a long-running online role-playing game: Dragon Treasure.

This game is now considered a long-established game with over ten years of history, and it remains quite popular among players.

Zhu Youxing also has an account in this game, and this game gives Zhu Youxing a sense of déjà vu, like World of Warcraft.

Back then, he and his guildmates would grind dungeons day and night, all in the hopes of getting the first or second kill in the region.

Thinking back now, I still miss that era.

Returning to Brown Entertainment, since Brown Entertainment no longer easily engages in the development and manufacturing of video game consoles, and even now has no intention of developing its own game platform, it relies entirely on the two existing game console platforms and the PC Battle.net platform. Therefore, Zhu Youxing and Hack Brown are still good friends, although they didn't have many opportunities to communicate in the past, but now is indeed a good opportunity.

Chapter 982 What's There to Be Afraid Of?

982

Bob from Facebook needs no introduction.

Facebook's rise to prominence was intertwined with the development of Youxing Electronic Entertainment.

Zhu Youxing's various suggestions played a crucial role in enabling Facebook to thrive.

Facebook's live streaming industry, Facebook's smartphone industry, Facebook's video field...

Several departments have now become important sources of funding for Facebook.

Today, Facebook doesn't need anyone's investment; it's already a super giant on its own.

Yet even such a top-tier giant was quite humble in front of Zhu Youxing.
