Under the watchful eyes of countless people, Kazuo Hirai extended his hand to Lin Li.

"Hello, Mr. Lin, I hope this unexpected visit has not affected your normal work."

As the translation progressed, Hirai Kazuo's words were translated.

Everyone was shocked.

Yu Zhong was completely stunned.

For someone like him, who even organizes offline trial events for Girls' Frontline 2 with a Japanese hot spring theme and personally greets players in a kimono.

For him, Kazuo Hirai was practically a religion.

And now.

His faith was shattered!

What's going on? Are they really here to find Xinghuo?

Finished!

be cheated!

Lin Li is too cunning! Now we've become the clowns!

~~~

It wasn't just onlookers watching Kazuo Hirai, but also a group of media taking pictures of him.

Lin Li was also quite surprised.

His calm demeanor just now was not because of Kazuo Hirai, but because he had other backup plans.

But so far, the backup plan hasn't been used yet.

Kazuo Hirai arrived first.

He did receive word that Sony might send someone to the Spark platform launch event today.

But he didn't expect that the person who came would be Kazuo Hirai.

"No, I had received the news beforehand, but I didn't expect it to be you visiting in person. Please don't mind if there was anything I did wrong."

Lin Li was quite polite to Kazuo Hirai, a bigwig in the industry.

However, he didn't really understand it either.

Why did Kazuo Hirai go to the scene?

"You're too kind. I'm here for Sony. Sony wants to ride the wave of the next global market boom."

When Kazuo Hirai said this, he was purely from a negotiating perspective.

For him, his purpose this time was very clear.

The goal is to build closer ties with Xinghuo and lay the groundwork for future cooperation.

He had never met Lin Li before, and Sony's relationship with Xinghuo was also ordinary.

Now that we're going to cooperate, it's like a salesperson praising a customer; it's always good to start by saying something nice.

But Kazuo Hirai didn't know that.

His words shocked everyone else present.

Just a moment ago, everyone was thinking about what Wang Guang said: that penguins have a greater appeal in mainstream global markets.

The next second, Kazuo Hirai suddenly appeared.

It's said that Sony needs to ride the wave of Spark's global expansion!

what! ?

Someone here is definitely lying.

Could it be that the great senior, Kazuo Hirai, was lying?

That's impossible.

Moreover, Sony has no reason to lie. In fact, if you think about it carefully, Kazuo Hirai is able to stand here, standing next to Xinghuo.

Does it even matter what he said?

This already represents Sony's attitude.

Sony's actions completely shattered Wang Guang's rhetoric.

Chapter 389 Uncle's Smile

Sony was present.

To the surprise of everyone present, including Lin Li.

But on the surface.

Lin Li still wore a calm and composed smile.

Seeing Lin Li's expression.

The media who had just witnessed the whole thing suddenly realized what was going on.

"No wonder Mr. Lin is so calm, watching the people from Tencent spout nonsense here. It turns out he had a backup plan all along."

"Yeah yeah."

"What is the demeanor of a great general?"

"Quick, quick, look at the expressions on those penguin guys' faces! Wow, amazing! Take a picture, take a picture! This footage is incredible!"

"Who recorded the part where the penguin was talking? Please upload it later."

The media were incredibly excited, snapping photos with all sorts of equipment.

My mind has already started to formulate various phrases.

Meanwhile, a group of domestic producers were gathered in the outer circle.

What I felt at that moment was an absurd sense of surprise.

Most of the companies that can be found here are domestic game developers specializing in second-hand games, and those who make second-hand games are naturally quite familiar with the Japanese game industry.

It's no exaggeration to say that some second-generation game developers simply look for gameplay elements suitable for adaptation into mobile games from the Japanese game industry, and once they find one, they start a new project.

under such circumstances.

What was it like for them when Kazuo Hirai suddenly appeared?

As a fan of Japanese dramas, seeing Yui Aragaki and Satomi Ishihara suddenly felt like they were right next to me.

While it is indeed possible from a probability standpoint, the probability is so small that most people wouldn't even dare to imagine it.

But, as fate would have it, it actually happened.

Kazuo Hirai actually came, and he came to support Xinghuo.

Even David found it amazing at this moment.

He had discussed cooperation with Sony, but this was the first time he had met Kazuo Hirai.

So when Kazuo Hirai appeared, he stared at him wide-eyed.

Especially when watching Lin Li and Hirai Kazuo shake hands and take photos in front of the media cameras.

That expression.

It's quite intriguing.

If you were to look at it from his perspective now, you might say, "Alas, this is what a true man should be like!"

~~~

If the biggest feeling others had was surprise,

On the other side of Tencent, a group of executives from various traditional manufacturers who came with Wang Guang were completely embarrassed, their toes digging into the ground.

Just a few minutes ago.

They are still boasting about their influence to these small factories and speaking ill of Xinghuo.

They were all using Wang Guang's same old rhetoric.

If Spark doesn't work through mainstream channels, you still need to go with them for distribution; they also have overseas channels, etc.

Now..

With the arrival of Kazuo Hirai, his words were slapped in the face.

The anime and manga companies were looking at them like they were idiots.

Some manufacturers, whether they're naturally black or just genuinely honest, even asked.

"Hey, didn't you guys say Xinghuo wasn't good enough?"

Fortunately, the show started just in time, preventing the awkward atmosphere from continuing.

Lin Li invited Kazuo Hirai into the press conference hall, and the media and other manufacturers followed suit.

Only Wang Guang and a group of traditional PC game developers were left looking at each other in bewilderment.

To enter, or not to enter?

They really need to think about this issue.

Wang Guang originally wanted to leave, but he felt it would be too embarrassing to leave like this.

He then glanced at the media who had already raised their cameras and pointed them at them.

After thinking for a moment, he led the people into the hall.

If I leave now, who knows what kind of stories these media outlets will fabricate?

When Wang Guang entered the press conference.

The front row was already full, so he and a group of executives from traditional manufacturers sat in the back.

It's in the planning stage.

Wang Guang wanted to take advantage of the penguin's popularity and have a group of people casually sit in the front row.

After all, in his imagination, a group of small factories wouldn't dare to compete with him for a position.

But now, the first row is occupied by Kazuo Hirai and the Sony executives he brought, with Spark and some leading anime and manga companies sitting next to him.

Furthermore, Xinghuo completely ignored them.

This plan had to be abandoned.

Today's Spark Platform launch event is an industry-oriented event, primarily targeting small and medium-sized developers both domestically and internationally.

Considering that many foreign manufacturers were not present at the site.

Therefore, the entire process was also broadcast live.

They also created online electronic invitations, extending formal invitations to independent game developers and small and medium-sized enterprises from overseas.

Since it was an industry conference, there was no promotion aimed at gamers.

Although there was no promotion to players, the timing was very special.

On the last day of the carnival, many players were feeling sentimental about the festival's impending end, while the excitement of the previous two days had not yet completely faded.

Ever since.

This industry livestream, which had no external promotion whatsoever, somehow managed to attract hundreds of thousands of viewers through the meticulous efforts of content creators (UPs) seeking out fleeting traffic and word-of-mouth recommendations from pure users.

can only say.

Spark players really love eating pancakes.

They're actually interested in this pie, which is entirely at the industry level.

But this time, they really made the right choice.

When the live stream started.
