Global monopoly of technology

In September, a team from the Côte d'Azur has already arrived in Cologne, Germany, and began to make on-site layout for the next press conference. It only took more than 20 days to complete all the press conference layout.

The other team is going all over the world, contacting world-renowned third-party game developers, targeting such as the American Electronic Arts (EA) company that owns "Need for Speed" series and "FIFA" series; owns "Assassin's Creed" Series, "Watch Dogs" series, etc. Ubisoft; Koreme, which owns "Metal Gear Solid" series, "Silent Hill", etc.; has cards for "Resident Evil" series, "Devil May Cry" series, etc Pukong company.

Luo Sheng’s task for this team is that the world’s top third-party game developers have to go to the door and let them sell their new games on the upcoming ACC console platform.

There is only one if you can pull one, and the more the better.

The most smooth thing was the negotiation started by Ubisoft, because the Vivendi Group sent God assists at this time.

But even if these third parties do not come, Luo Sheng is not afraid, because his content layout in the past five years has been enough to carry the release of ACC hosts. For example, 2KGames, a subsidiary of Take-two Group, has the "Civilization" series and "Bio Shock "Series", "Borderless Land" and other masterpieces.

Another subsidiary, R Star, owns masterpieces such as the "GTA" series and the "Red Dead Redemption" series.

This year's R star will launch the sequel to the "GTA" series "The Merry Tony's Song". The "GTA" series is definitely a major treasure of the upcoming ACC console platform.

In addition, CDPR, known as the "Polish stupid donkey", has the famous masterpiece "The Witcher" series, and this year it will launch "The Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings", which is also regarded by Luo Sheng as a major treasure of the ACC host platform.

MojangAB, which was acquired last year, will also launch its "Minecraft" on the ACC host platform.

Even if third parties such as Ubisoft and Capcom do not come to join in, the launch of the ACC host will definitely not face the embarrassing situation of not having a masterpiece online.

It is no exaggeration to say that Luo Sheng now controls many of the world's top third-party game development companies in his own hands, and he has more than one or two best-selling 3A masterpieces.

...

On September 11, the company's official website announced a new news that caused a huge sensation in the global gaming industry, especially the home console market, because the official website officially announced that the company will enter the game console market on Friday, September 25. Held a product launch conference in Cologne, Germany.

The high-profile disclosure of this news also announced to the entire industry that the first party of the game has added a new heavyweight player, and the news reached the ears of senior executives such as Sony, Nintendo, and Microsoft.

At the same time, the Côte d'Azur also released a three-minute promotional video in this news, which caused a frenzy of heated discussions in the global player community.

Because the video editing screen shows the figure of many masterpieces, including "Civilization" series, "GTA" series, "Witcher" series and other game masterpieces, and the content is brand new high-quality CG animation.

There has been heated discussion on the Reddit forum.

...

Allen, a game player based in Finland, was paying attention to this promotional video released by the Riviera. The background music of the video immediately attracted him, and the style was full of cyberpunk.

The BGM of the video was produced by a singer from the United States, Blue Stahli, and the BGM was called "Suitup".

Like his style, offensive guitar, fast rhythm, messy drums, distorted electronic noise, fusion of metal, electronic, industrial and other musical styles, with a stronger rock flavor than Celldweller.

The opening screen of the video is the fairy-level picture quality of the "GTA" game. It moves forward with the music without any narration. Allen watching the video, as a game enthusiast, is extremely excited at the moment.

[In the war against reality, imagination is the only weapon]

[But, for victory, we are not going to fight]

[We just need to have a good time]

[It makes our weapons sharper]

[Because it enriches our imagination]

[And let the ordinary us become extraordinary, great, awakened, fast, curious, and innovative]

[Link together, firm and confident]

[Deep thoughts, brave, smart, hardworking, full of emotions]

[ACC wants to win the war against reality]

[And take you to a better place]

[Get a surprising experience, the richest story]

[There are also imaginative characters]

[Playing together, exploring together, setting sail together, running together, fighting together, diluting together, and winning together in the family members formed by ACC as the link]

[What we create is not just a device]

[You can become a legend through it]

[We are born special]

[We become rebellious]

[Never indulge in peace]

[There is only one rule]

[Always forge ahead]

...

The video ends at 3:41. The video screen is frozen on an "ACC" exclusive logo icon, and the background of the screen is the shadow outline of the ACC host, as if it was covered with a veil of mystery.

"Oh oh oh~~~"

Allen sat in front of the computer excitedly and yelled: "OMG! The latest works of "GTA" and "The Witcher" will be released this year? But why is there no news at the E3 Game Show in June?"

After the publicity video was announced, it was uploaded to BV Video.com, the world's largest streaming media online video site, and it achieved more than 5 million hits in one day.

One is the current brand awareness of the Blue Coast company. Many console game players around the world are mostly electronic product enthusiasts. Many players have started with Azure mobile phones. Secondly, the content in the video is too popular for players.

"GTA: The Merry Tony", "The Witcher: Assassin of Kings" and other latest game video screens and CG have appeared in the promo. Although many of them are flashed by, the information revealed makes fans of these masterpieces. We are excited enough.

On September 25th, Cologne, Germany, remembered by thousands of players all over the world.

Major media in the game industry and even some mainstream media are rushing to report that the action this year on the Riviera is really dazzling. The iP tablet was released in the first half of the year and is now selling all over the world. I never expected that the autumn conference would launch a new hardware product.

No one thought that Luo Sheng was secretly developing the next-generation game console. Now it was suddenly announced. Everyone, especially those in the industry, were caught off guard.

But one thing is certain.

The so-called ACC console is definitely a long-planned layout. In 2008, the news that the Côte d’Azur packaged and bought Sony’s Cell chip business was also unearthed again. It also shows that the Côte d’Azur company’s actions in the game console have been conspiring for at least two years. That's it.

However, this view was quickly overturned, and the outside world pushed the time forward again by about three years, which means that the gestation time of this plan has actually been more than five years.

The reason is that Luo Sheng has been planning a conspiracy for at least five years since the acquisition of take-Two.

...

Sony headquarters.

"What? The Côte d'Azur is going to enter the home game console market and be the first party?" Howard, the current head of Sony, stared motionlessly at the reporting executive, and suddenly cursed after a while: "I should have thought of it, damn it. Bastard, liar!!!"

Howard instantly thought that the Cell chip business had been sold. He still remembers that in 2008, Luo Sheng came all the way to Japan and said to make friends. Sony executives were sold Cell chips by his humbling remarks. of.

At that time, Sony was actually in a swing mentality, wanting to sell but not wanting to sell, but in the end it still couldn't stand Luo Sheng's lobbying.

Howard vaguely remembered the first time he had a face-to-face meeting with Luo Sheng. At that time, Luo Sheng had the expression of Wen Ruyu, a modest gentleman. He expressed sincerely that he came to make friends with Sony, and vowed that the Blue Coast would not enter the console market as the first game of the game. One side.

In addition to this guarantee, Sony executives also felt that the Côte d’Azur did not have a game gene. After all, it was interlaced as a mountain. In addition, Cell made Sony’s fiasco, and a super joke in the history of the chip was laughed off by the industry.

All in all, Sony has packaged and sold the Cell business to Luo Sheng for various reasons. During the negotiation, it also requested that additional Cell chips not be used for game consoles. However, Luo Sheng also added a condition to agree, that is, the purchase price was reduced by 30%. Give up for this 30%.

"Sir, Sony proved that the Cell chip is a road of failure at a painful price, and the ACC host on the Côte d'Azur will definitely encounter Waterloo."

When Howard heard it, he denied: "No, because of this, the Côte d'Azur knows that this is a road of failure and resolutely chose to go on. It shows that they have found the pain points of the Cell chip and have a solution, Holyshit!!"

What's more, that person is called "Luo Sheng", and he has never failed.

At this moment, Howard had the urge to vomit blood, and suddenly realized that Cell should not be sold, at least should not be bought by Luo Sheng, who is good at creating miracles.

After a while, Howard picked up the phone with an angry expression, found Luo Sheng's personal contact information, and then made an international call.
