Is it not a galgame?

"What?! Qing Zhiyuan is Gu Yuan Chunqiu?!"

As soon as the content of Qing Zhiyuan’s press conference was announced, the entire gaming industry was shocked.

"Ahhh, how is this possible? This is Gu Yuan Chun Qiu!

How can my true God, Gu Yuan Chunqiu, be compared to a guy like Qing Zhiyuan who regards money as his life?
This is impossible!

Absolutely impossible! "

“Oh my god… This is definitely the biggest lie of the century, even more incredible than telling me that I’m actually the son of the President of the United States.

No matter how you look at it, the possibility seems very low. Aren’t the styles of Furuhara Tsubaki and Ao Ji-won too different?
If Qing Zhiyuan hadn’t admitted it himself, I would never have linked the two people together.”

"I do not believe!"

"Don't say you don't believe it. I don't believe it either. Who dares to believe it?"

Qing Zhiyuan is Gu Yuan Chunqiu, as if two parallel lines that should never intersect suddenly merged together, collapsing the worldview and cognition of countless people.

Many netizens who had previously made fun of Qing Zhiyuan, thinking that this guy was not suitable for making games at all and that he was at best a spokesperson for capital, now felt a wave of heat and pain on their faces, as if they had been slapped countless times.

The loyal fans who previously thought that Qing Zhiyuan’s game production level was good actually never really thought that Qing Zhiyuan and Gu Yuan Chunqiu were the same person.

It was like an invisible lightning bolt that struck everyone, leaving them burnt on the outside and tender on the inside.

The players broke down their defenses.

The whole world collapsed.

……

But if you think about it carefully, it seems that this is really possible.

"Think about it, Qing Zhiyuan and Gu Yuan Chunqiu, it seems that they have never appeared at the same time, right?"

"That's... that's true, but it's not so much that Gu Yuan Chunqiu never appeared at the same time as Qing Zhiyuan, but he never appeared at all!"

"What?! Has Furuhara Tsubaki never shown up? Why do I feel like I've seen his photos or a press conference somewhere before?"

"Yes, yes, I remember that Gu Yuan Chunqiu seemed to be a middle-aged man in his 50s, with gray hair and a small mustache. He was a very kind and gentle person."

"Yeah, I remember that when CL was being made, didn't Furuhara Tsubaki have dinner and chat with Hayao Miyazaki and Hisaishi? How come it's Qing Zhiyuan now?

Qing Zhiyuan is a delicate-skinned guy with delicate features and delicate features. He is very annoying at first glance. He is totally different from the impression I have of Gu Yuan Chunqiu."

"Yes, yes. I remember that too. There seemed to be an interview with Hayao Miyazaki before, and he praised Furuhara Tsubaki as a great game master."

Once reminded, countless people began looking for previous news materials, and sure enough, they were found. When Miyazaki Hayao was first invited to participate in the production of CL, he did have some comments on the game.

But here’s the problem –

What Miyazaki Hayao praised was not Tsubaki Furuhara himself, but the project production team and game designers. As to whether the game designer he mentioned was Tsubaki Furuhara or Aoki Gen, it is actually a Rashomon.

No one knows what the truth behind it is.

"This is a cognitive fallacy, the Mandela effect. Often, because someone is too famous, most people will have the illusion that this person must have attended many events.

Although I also thought so at the beginning, after all, Master Furuhara Tsubaki has been making games for so many years, and Paradox has released games countless times. The name Furuhara Tsubaki is a household name, and he should have appeared several times. Even if we don’t know his true identity, we should at least see his photo.

But the fact is that there is not a single photo of Gu Yuan Chun Qiu. "

"This... my god, the hairs all over my body stand on end. This is definitely the most horrifying story I have ever heard.

There isn't even a single photo of Gu Yuan Chun Qiu?

Even Gen Urobuchi from Paradox has made an appearance. I've seen him before. He looks like a murderer."

"I suddenly feel that even if you say that Gen Urobuchi is Tsubaki Furuhara, I can accept it, but I really can't accept that Qing Zhiyuan is Tsubaki Furuhara."

"And did you notice that when Pokeni held its 10th anniversary celebration, many bigwigs attended, but the only one who didn't show up was Furuhara Tsubaki.

In fact, Gu Yuan Chunqiu did appear, but Qing Zhiyuan was Gu Yuan Chunqiu. "

“Yes, that’s right. In this way, many previous doubts have been revealed.

Why Qing Zhiyuan has never appeared at the same time as Gu Yuan Chunqiu.

Why does Gu Yuan Chunqiu never show up.

Why did Tsubaki Furuhara miss Paradox's 10th anniversary celebration? He was absent from all major events related to pokeni games without exception.

Only Qing Zhiyuan was present at the press conference.

In fact, from the very beginning, the company Pokeni, Qing Zhiyuan and Furuhara Tsubaki existed at the same time.

It’s terrifying when you think about it, it’s terrifying when you think about it! "

"Terrible... so terrible..."

……

However, reporters are actually more proactive than netizens. Just after Qing Zhiyuan announced his identity and retirement speech, the smart reporters actually found Miyazaki Hayao as soon as possible to inquire about the relevant information.

When he learned that Qing Zhiyuan had admitted that he was Gu Yuan Chunqiu, the old man smiled and responded with an open mind, "This guy is willing to make his name public."

The old man, who had already known the inside story, sighed with regret and said with a complicated expression, while confirming that Gu Yuan Chunqiu was Qing Zhiyuan.

"If he reveals his identity, then that means Qing Zhiyuan will really not participate in the production of the game anymore, right?"

Everyone at the scene was slightly stunned, but they soon figured it out.

It can be seen that Miyazaki Hayao actually has deep feelings for Qing Zhiyuan, especially at the work level, he highly appreciates Qing Zhiyuan's talents.

If there is anyone in the world who is most reluctant to see Tsubaki Furuhara or Chiyuan Qing quit the front line of game production, it must be Hayao Miyazaki.

This is the greatest reluctance of an idealist who has taken the lead to see another idealist withdraw.

Although it is a pity, Miyazaki Hayao can actually understand it:

As the president of Pokeni, Qing Zhiyuan shoulders greater responsibilities. Just as he himself said, perhaps once he really becomes the president and the manager of the company, he will be further away from his original dream after having this identity.

Fortunately, Miyazaki thought of this and looked at the other old man next to him, Toshio Suzuki, with gratitude.

It was truly a great blessing for him to meet Suzuki in his life.

It was Suzuki-san who helped him deal with all matters except creation, which allowed Miyazaki to let go and do what he liked and become a thorough idealist.

"Ah, it would be nice if someone could manage the business instead of Qingsang."

……

News from all sides came in like snowflakes, interweaving together to prove from different angles the fact that Qing Zhiyuan was Gu Yuan Chunqiu.

Many details had actually been exposed long before, but people chose to ignore them.

People are only willing to believe what they believe, so when the facts are overwhelming, they suddenly realize that there have been so many traces of these two things before.

Colleagues in the gaming industry were all shocked.

When Shigeru Miyamoto saw the relevant news, he spat out a mouthful of water onto the table.

"What? Qing Zhiyuan is actually Gu Yuan Chunqiu?"

how could be?

how can that be possible?
He looked up blankly, and almost went through the pokeni game in his mind, and continued to verify it.

Although he was also shocked, Shigeru Miyamoto's shock was different from that of the players.

It is a feeling of being overwhelmed by talent, feeling an unprecedentedly powerful and terrifying sense of oppression as if the supreme power has descended upon the world, and it is a fear of ability.

Yes, think about it, if a person can do what Qing Zhiyuan did, creating the Demon Hunter series, Mushishi and Violet Evergarden, then you would think that this is a pretty remarkable game producer. But at least he is still a person.

If we take Furuhara Tsubaki alone, he is just a god in the field of galgame.

The strengths and weaknesses are very obvious, so you won't be shocked too much.

But what if you combine the two?

A game master who can achieve full marks in all fields, enter the Famitong Platinum Hall countless times, constantly refresh the new technology of the game, and is almost impeccable.
The true God of Games has reached a level that people cannot even look directly at.

Is this really something humans can do?
do not know.

At least Shigeru Miyamoto felt that he could never achieve it.

Qing Zhiyuan plus Gu Yuan Chunqiu, this is already the height of God.

……

At the same time, Ken Kutaragi from Sony also felt the same way, with an almost identical shocked expression to Shigeru Miyamoto.

Even the shock he felt was stronger than anyone else.

Who is Qing Zhiyuan?
He was once a partner who fought side by side with Sony and a solid teammate who overthrew the tyranny of Renten.

Even after Paradox and Sony parted ways and became each other's most troublesome enemies, Ken Kutaragi's affection and admiration for Aoki Gen did not diminish at all.

In Ken Kutaragi's heart, Qing Zhiyuan's business talent, vision, judgment of the future, technological innovation, and ability to select talents far exceed his ability to make games.

This guy is a corporate god.

But, until now——

Qing Zhiyuan and Gu Yuan Chunqiu actually became one individual.

After the god of business combined with the god of game production, Ken Kutaragi's fingers could no longer stop trembling.

This is a monster!!!
If there is anything that can prove that this world is fictional, controlled, created by higher life forms, or just like what is described in The Matrix -

Humans are merely tools that are raised to provide artificial intelligence, and the existence of Qingzhiyuan is the proof.

The biggest bug in the world is Qing Zhiyuan.

It’s scary no matter how I think about it.

Qing Zhiyuan's abilities have exceeded the limits of what humans can achieve.

At least Ken Kutaragi couldn't figure out how this guy could take care of so many things at the same time, and at the same time make each one of them the best in the industry and carry on the future.

In other words——

"Is Qing Zhiyuan a god?!"

Even in the cold weather of February, Ken Kutaragi broke out in a cold sweat.

When I touched my face, it was covered with cold sweat.

"My God, what kind of monster has Sony been competing with for all these years?"

……

"Hey, have you seen the latest news? Qing Zhiyuan actually admitted that he is Gu Yuan Chunqiu."

On the rooftop, facing the steep cold wind, the trio continued to have an intense conversation.

However, after hearing what Yamada Masaharu said, Furukawa Hiroze suddenly turned his head, and the fingers holding the cigarette began to tremble uncontrollably.

"What did you say?!"

Hiroze Furukawa was in a bad state.

"Don't you watch the news?" Yamada Masaharu looked at him deeply. This guy seemed to be a little out of touch with the masses since he became the minister.

"No, I've been too busy lately."

Hiroze Furukawa frowned, his face full of disbelief, still immersed in the terrible news that had just been heard.

Although it was only a short sentence, the amount of information came like a tide and instantly flooded his brain.

Furukawa Hiroze was a little confused for a while, and couldn't figure it out at all——

How is Qing Zhiyuan connected to Gu Yuan Chunqiu?

But that was the fact, because next, Yamada Masaharu opened the magazine, found the latest page of the report and handed it over.

After taking it with trembling hands and taking a look at it, Furukawa Hiroze was stunned by the big title "God of Games: Furuhara Tsubaki is Aoki Jiwon".

"How could the master that I admire the most, Gu Yuan Chun Qiu, be someone like Qing Zhi Yuan?
Is he worthy?
He doesn't deserve it.

There must be something wrong, am I opening the magazine incorrectly?"

Hiroze Furukawa closed the magazine, then opened it again and took a look.

The title is still shocking.

"It's terrible, it's terrible."

No one could figure out how these two people achieved unification.

Yamada Masaharu looked at Furukawa Hiroze with deep sympathy.
"Senior, I understand your feelings very well. Your expression now is exactly the same as when I saw the news yesterday morning."

Only Keisuke Kinoshita remained relatively calm.

"In this day and age, children may not even be your own. It's just a pseudonym. What's the big deal?"

"Just a pseudonym?! That's Furuhara Tsubaki!!!" Furukawa Hiroze shouted.

"Yes! That's Tsubaki Guyuan!"

A guy like Kinoshita who doesn't care about anything probably can't understand the feelings of a die-hard fan, right?
It was completely a critical hit of 10,000 points.

Furukawa Hiroze and Yamada Masaharu were both extremely shocked, angry, frightened, and upset...

But I have to accept it.

"Look at it from a bright perspective. Aren't Qing Zhiyuan and Furuhara Chunqiu both very impressive? The gods of galgame, and... um... the creators of the Demon Hunter series.

There doesn’t seem to be anything wrong with that, right?”

Hiroze Furukawa comforted himself.

"Hmm, how should I put it? As expected of old thief Gu Yuan, he really caught me by surprise."

The God of Games has completed the fusion, but why does it feel so awkward?
On the one hand, it seems that Gu Yuan Lao Zei has created more masterpieces of games.

But on the other hand, how could the old thief Gu Yuan that I like be Qing Zhiyuan?

The atmosphere at the scene was quite awkward, even Kinoshita didn't know how to comfort them, and so it fell into deathly silence.

"Hey, hey,"

Everyone was silent for a long time before Yamada Masaharu spoke:

"That, the last work of the old thief Gu Yuan -

Would you like to buy a copy of "Tears of the Mermaid"? "
