Tokyo: Being coveted by my wife, I just want to play games

At the beginning of this year, most colleagues in the gaming industry believed that this would be a slow year for gaming.

There is no other reason. Last year was the year when a new generation of handheld game consoles were released, and various blockbuster games were released frequently.

The development cycle of stand-alone games is generally very long, so many medium-sized or small manufacturers have judged that this year will be a slow year for games and are not planning to release games this year. However, with the emergence of blockbuster games such as "Elden Ring", "Stardew Valley" and "Don't Starve" with sales exceeding 30 million, the situation has changed.

Most game manufacturers are afraid of clashing with masterpieces in their release dates, but at the same time they hope to have more influential works on the market.

This is mainly because most young people today cannot afford to spend four or five hours a day playing games. Young people today do not have that much time to immerse themselves in single-player games, and single-player games are usually discounted after half a year or a year.

If the market sentiment is not heated up and does not drive the players' emotions, many calm players will not buy the first release of the game at full price. Instead, they will wait and see with a mentality of "I don't have much time to play it recently, I'll buy it when it's on sale" or "It looks good, I'll add it to my wishlist and wait for a sale."

Especially for some small companies that are not well-known and lack large-scale publicity and promotion funds, it is difficult for their works to get good initial sales in a calm market atmosphere. They need to have some powerful works to heat up the game market.

It's just like the stock market. When everyone is discussing the stock market and thinks that it will skyrocket, the emotions of many people will indeed be affected, and they will pay more or less attention to some information in this regard. As long as they pay attention to the stock market, the identity of these people will be transformed from ordinary passers-by to potential shareholders.

Similarly, Dongchuan Che released three hit games in the first half of this year, and players are paying close attention to new games. Therefore, for small and medium-sized manufacturers, the second half of this year is a great opportunity to release games.

But the premise is.

Don't let it collide with Toru Fuyukawa's new work.

Although the project of "Minecraft" has just been announced, many manufacturers are still trembling. After all, Dongchuan Che is not only famous for his strong production ability, but also the most well-known quick shooter in the industry!

Who knows if this monster will produce another work every month!

Game manufacturers around the world are somewhat worried, fearing that they might come over to bask in the sun's heat and end up being baked by the sun because they get too close.

So, with Dongchuan Che feeling both amused and annoyed, as time went on until early September, bosses from various game companies would come to visit him almost every few days to sound him out.

The women in the family were quite happy about this. After all, those presidents did not come empty-handed. Colleagues in the industry, or anyone in Japan who had contact with the entertainment industry and had a little status, knew that Dongchuan Che loved the women in his family very much.

Izumi Himawari and Miyano Mitsuko receive gifts every day. Even Sayoko, who usually doesn't meet outsiders, accepted some bags and jewelry from Chanel and Hermes at the kindness of a president's wife.

What's even more exaggerated is that the two little lolita girls, Ohara Nanako and Sato Sayuri, were not "spared". Some presidents' wives also gave them all kinds of luxury goods.

Just today at noon, Dongchuan Che had just finished his lunch, Sayoko and Yuezhu Asuka had just gone into the cubicle to catch up on their sleep, when yet another president came to the door carrying a lot of bags.

Seeing Ohara Nanako and Sato Sayuri sitting on the sofa, the president and his wife smiled widely and tried to get close to them with gifts.

Nanako Ohara doesn't care about luxury goods.

Not to mention that because of her relationship with Chika Ohara, she has never lacked material conditions, and now with the popularity of "Pokemon", she has become a super rich woman, with enough money in the bank to spend her whole life. She doesn't care about other people's gifts, she just politely says thank you, but Sayuri Sato is different.

This girl who was missing a leg had a very lively personality when she was in junior high school. She was noisy every day, making a woman with a bad temper like Sato Fujiko lose her temper.

But as she grew older, as Sato Fujiko gradually understood what it meant to have her left leg cut off below the knee, she gradually understood the strange looks her classmates gave her, and.

When she found out that all her relatives had special skills, and even Nanako Ohara, who grew up with her, became a well-known screenwriter, while she seemed to have no talent in anything, had poor academic performance, could not do sports, and had no special skills in almost any field, this girl's personality began to become depressed.

In the past, she would run to the company every afternoon after school, either to act coquettishly with Sato Fujiko or to make trouble with Dongchuan Che, but now she goes home alone after school every day and locks herself in her room.

Dongchuan Che was also worried about this little sister-in-law, but there was nothing he could do. He was too busy with work and his personal life. All he could do was occasionally take her to swim in the pool in the backyard, occasionally take her to the park, eat, or go to the arcade. But this girl was like her sister, not only had a bad temper, but also had a very strong self-esteem and was very sensitive.

Seeing that the gift the president gave to Nana Ohara was the autograph of the author of Berserk, Miura Misaki Taro, and the blessing words from the comic master to encourage Nana Ohara's career, but the gift she gave to herself was a luxury dress, Sayuri Sato suddenly went berserk.

"I don't want your gifts!"

Under the dull gazes of the president and his wife, Sayuri Sato threw the box to the ground and ran out of the office.

Shocked!

The visiting president and his wife were both startled, and then looked at Dongchuan Che in panic. The colleagues in the industry all knew how much Dongchuan Che loved the women in his family. In addition, Dongchuan Che had crushed the left hand of Minister Kondo Ryomenomiya before, and had brought hundreds of people to Kyoto. Therefore, people who were not familiar with Dongchuan Che thought that he was a tyrant-like president with a very bad temper!

Although the couple didn't know what they did wrong, they were still panicked! But in the panic eyes of the couple, Dong Chuanche, who was still sitting behind the boss's desk smoking, stood up, shook his white shirt, and walked towards the door while bowing slightly and said: "My child is immature, please forgive me. In addition, I will not release new games in the second half of this year, you can play as you like. I have something to deal with now, I'm sorry I can't receive you two."

"Hayi Hayi! Mr. Dongchuan, you go ahead and do your work first!"

They had never expected that a big shot like Dongchuan Che would bow and apologize to them. The couple was stunned for a moment, with disbelief written all over their faces. Although they came here to give gifts, the gap in status between the two sides was too big, and

In Japan's deformed workplace, the party giving the gift is not most afraid of spending too much money or losing face, but is actually most worried that the other party will not accept the gift.

In the eyes of the young couple, they were already very happy that Dongchuan Che was willing to accept their gifts, meet them and reveal some news. As for being troubled, that was not a big deal. However, they never expected that the "Tyrant Dongchuan Che" rumored by the outside world would be so friendly in his attitude towards others!

The young couple was surprised, but after all, they were all in the business circle. Seeing Dongchuan Che was about to leave, they also understood the principle of avoiding suspicion, and hurriedly left the president's office in small steps. It was obvious that Dongchuan Che didn't care about their inner thoughts.

After seeing them all come out, Dongchuan Che also closed the door and walked quickly towards the elevator. As for Ohara Nanako, the girl had already followed.

.

After a while, we went to the coffee shop next door downstairs.

"You want to transfer to another school?"

Dongchuan Che stirred his coffee and raised his eyebrows slightly. Hearing his words, Sato Sayuri, whose face was full of tears, clenched her fists on her knees, gritted her teeth, and nodded seriously: "Yes!"

"That's it"

After getting a definite answer, Dongchuan Che frowned slightly, but soon relaxed his brows. He just looked at Sato Sayuri, who had become a little fat girl in front of him, with somewhat complicated eyes.

Like Sato Fujiko, Sato Sayuri has very fair skin. Sitting here, she looks like a cute fair porcelain doll. However, these two sisters have many more things in common. For example, they both have strong self-esteem, they both eat like crazy when they are under a lot of pressure, and they both have a physique that makes them gain weight easily.

When I first met Sayuri Sato, she was still a quirky, skinny little girl. But after entering high school, in just half a year, she transformed from a skinny little girl into a chubby girl with a double chin. Even if she walked with her belly sucked in, her fat belly would still show through her clothes.

To be honest, Dongchuan Che thinks it is not good for children to be too thin, but it is obvious that Sayuri Sato's obesity is due to excessive mental stress. And the source of this mental stress.

Glancing at Nanako Ohara who looked worried, and thinking of Fujiko Sato's stubborn and competitive personality, Toukawa Che sighed, picked up his coffee and took a sip, "Have you decided where to go?"

"Eh?! Brother! Aren't you going to stop Sayuri?!"

Nanako Ohara was stunned because she had never expected Toru Fuyukawa to say such a thing. Not only was she stunned, but Sayuri Sato, whose fair face was covered with tear marks, was also stunned.

After hesitating for a while, she cautiously asked, "Will my elder sister agree?"

"No, but if you really want to live alone for a while, I can go talk to your sister."

Dongchuan Che took another sip of coffee, and after seeing the obvious hesitation on Sayuri Sato's face, he continued, "You and Fujiko have the same personality. Your temper comes and goes quickly. I know you are a little hesitant now, but if you really don't like your current life, or if you can't find a sense of accomplishment or happiness, and you feel anxious every day, then I think you can really try a new life."

Dongchuan Che spoke slowly, but the concern in his tone was evident. Although he and Sayuri Sato were not siblings, they had known each other for so long, often lived together, and spent holidays together. Dongchuan Che had long regarded this noisy girl as his own sister.

If it was completely according to his own ideas, he naturally didn't want Sayuri Sato to live in another place. But he also knew that if she continued like this, Sayuri Sato would only become more and more miserable. What she lacked now was not money or love, but she couldn't find the direction of life. And this was actually related to the way Fujiko Sato raised her.

Although Sato Fujiko doted on Sato Sayuri, she had been very hardworking since she was young and would fight for everything. Therefore, before she met Fuyukawa Tetsu, Sato Fujiko pushed herself to work hard like crazy, and as the saying goes, actions speak louder than words.

Even if Fujiko Sato has never really been strict with Sayuri Sato, or even if she worked hard just to give her sister and family a more relaxed living environment, Sayuri Sato, who regarded her as an idol, still became anxious when she was idle.

If this kind of personality trait is placed on a talented person, it may lead to a legendary life. However, if it is placed on a person with average talent, family background and luck, it will only cause intense mental exhaustion.

My heart is constantly telling me to work hard and change, but after considering the actual situation, my rational judgment is that "for someone like me with average talent, it's useless to work hard, and change may not be a good thing."

Twist.

I can't find the direction to move forward, and at the same time, I can't sit back and relax with peace of mind.

There is no cure for this kind of people, because their emotions come from their hearts, so they can only figure it out by themselves, and nothing others say will be of any use.

Dongchuan Che is not going to counsel Sato Sayuri. Instead of saying some nonsense that sounds reasonable but is actually useless, it is better to let Sato Sayuri try a new life according to her own ideas.

At least, I won't be subjected to invisible PUA by Ohara Nanako and the women in my family every day. After all, this feeling of "everyone around me is very powerful, but I am useless, and no matter how hard I try, it's useless" is really terrible.

Explore more possibilities in life with a light-hearted attitude. At worst, you can be alone for a while to calm down your restless emotions. Dongchuan Che thinks this approach may be more suitable for Sato Sayuri at the moment.

Dongchuan Che thought a lot, but it was obvious that Sayuri Sato, a girl of 16 or 17 years old, had a simpler mindset. Moreover, she was too young and her experience was far less than that of Fujiko Sato, so she was not as confident and tough as Fujiko Sato.

Although she really thought about it for a long time before she thought about going to live alone, she wanted to push herself like Sato Fujiko did. But when the time came, seeing that Dongchuan Che was really willing to support her, this little fat girl became a little unconfident.

so awkward.

She had already thought it through when she came down. If Dongchuan Che enlightened her, she would act tsundere and arrogant, and end the story very handsomely with [I, Sato Sayuri, am not a woman without dreams]. Then she left her family with a chic back, and left for a long way as the sun set, with her sisters and the big pervert Dongchuan Che moved to tears.

But she never expected that Dongchuan Che did not play according to common sense at all!

Children aged 16 or 17 are like this. The more you forbid them to do something, the more they want to do it. On the contrary, if you stroke them in the right direction and do not arouse their emotions before guiding them to think, sometimes children can calm down and think about the consequences.

Sayuri Sato was like this, she was a little hesitant now. At this moment, Ohara Nanako's cell phone rang, she took it out and took a look, then immediately put the phone back into her pocket, but at that moment, Sayuri Sato still caught a glimpse of the incoming call reminder - the call from the head of the company's animation department.
