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

Almost three months after its release, the craze for World of Warcraft continues.

As the first cherry blossoms in Tokyo this year opened in Ueno Park; as the huge weeping cherry tree in the backyard of Fuyukawa's house, which was taller than the three-meter wall, blossomed slightly; as the first 40-man team dungeon of "World of Warcraft", Molten Core, was won by the Morningstar Guild of the Chinese server; as Kawaguchi, a high-ranking member of the Holy Light Society, personally went to China to present the first kill ring and bonus, and took commemorative photos with members of the Morningstar Guild by the West Lake, the popularity of "World of Warcraft" suddenly soared.

"On the first kill day last week, our concurrent online users exceeded 2100 million, exceeding the historical record by 600 million. But this should be the limit of online games. From now on, unless you make a super awesome expansion pack, it will be difficult to reach this level of popularity. Hey, are you listening to what I'm saying?"

In the afternoon, in the backyard of Dongchuan’s house, there was a half basketball court.

Ohara Chika read the report for a long time, but when she found that Fuyukawa Che on the court was just bouncing the ball and hitting Yuezhu Asuka from behind, and didn't seem to pay any attention to her at all, her face swelled up like a puffer fish.

Dongchuan Che back-played and pushed away Yuezhu Asiniao, who was wearing a white top and exclusive hot pants. Then he made a cool fadeaway jump shot. As the basketball went into the net, he wiped the sweat from his chin, turned his head and smiled at the sidelines: "I'm listening, I'm listening. I was just playing basketball, okay? No... cough cough, be gentle! Xiao Yuezhu, are you trying to murder your husband?"

"Who told you to hit that person so hard just now? And he was obviously playing ball with me. Humph, stick to me~~~"

Dongchuan Che was speaking, but before he could finish his words, he was grabbed by the neck from behind by Yuezhu Asuka, who had a murderous look on his face.

Feeling the slippery headlights of Yuezhu Feiniao's sweat pressing against his back, and feeling the jealousy in her teasing, Dongchuan Che didn't know whether to laugh or cry. However.

Although Yuezhu Asuka has been practicing kendo since childhood and is 1.76 meters tall, she has a sexy and slender figure, but her strength is not small at all. However, this strength is not small, that is, for ordinary men, and it still has no suppressive power on Dongchuan Che.

After pretending to pull Yuezhu Asuka's arm and playing with this woman who was lying on his back and acting coquettishly for a while, Dongchuan Che used the strength of his waist and abdomen to carry Yuezhu Asuka on his back and sat down on the bench next to Ohara Chika.

"Humph! A perverted president who plays ball with women every day! I... Hey! Don't come near me! You're all sweaty!"

"What are you afraid of? I don't know who said last night, 'I like the slippery feeling of lying on Che's body.'"

“I’m going to die~”

Seeing that Dongchuan Che was still flirting with Yuezhu Asuka, Ohara Chika became even more jealous. But before she could say anything more, Dongchuan Che hugged her waist.

It is early April now and the weather is actually still a little chilly, but Chika Ohara always has the habit of taking a nap on weekends, and after waking up from her nap, she usually goes downstairs to exercise, so she is now wearing relatively cool clothes, just a very thin T-shirt and hot pants.

And

I don't know if it's because I've been spending too much time with Sayoko, who likes to stay at home idle, or if it's just that women in their thirties do have stronger desires in that area.

Nowadays, Chika Ohara basically keeps her car in neutral gear at home. At most, she is afraid that her clothes will rub against each other, so she puts on an XX sticker.

A cool T-shirt and sports hot pants, plus a gap.

He was still carrying Yuezhu Asuka on his left shoulder, who was lying on his shoulder playing with his hair. He was feeling the plump body of Ohara Chika. Even though he had just finished playing ball, Dongchuan Che was a little excited at this time, and his eyes began to move downwards unconsciously.

Feeling his fiery gaze, Chika Ohara's face also blushed slightly.

They have been an old couple living together for more than four years. In addition, Dongchuan Che is a typical "lewd king", and she has long been trained by Dongchuan Che to have a physique that can cater to his needs at any time.

The two of them had played all kinds of tricks on each other, and they had played them countless times in the backyard of their home. The broken flowerpot by the wall was because when Dong Chuan Che pressed her against the wall last night, she was flushed all over and became overly excited, and her thighs were shaking, so she didn't hold on to the wall and knocked it over.

As an old couple, they do everything casually.

However, seeing the little figure writing a script by the windowsill upstairs, she suppressed the waves in her heart, smiled and rolled her eyes at Dongchuan Che, and whispered: "Nana is upstairs, let's talk about business first."

Dong Chuan Che felt a little suffocated because he couldn't execute the law right there. He smiled and shook his head: "Well, it's inconvenient to have a child at home. By the way, how about enrolling her in a training class on weekend mornings? Although she is very rich now, studying is still very important."

Dongchuan Che had a righteous expression, saying, "For the sake of my child's future, I am willing to spend money to let her study more." Seeing his funny look, Yuezhu Asuka and Ohara Chika couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Ache has become an unscrupulous adult now. Okay, okay, you two can chat first. I'm going back to my room to take a shower. Oh, I'm already completely wet because of Ache."

"Hey, hey, hey, we're just playing basketball, don't say anything ambiguous!"

"Hey, is it just basketball? I'm not just talking about playing basketball. When we were competing just now, Che pushed me really hard, and I can still feel it here now."

"!"

"Haha, I won't tease you anymore, just chat with yourselves."

Yuezhu Feiniao smiled and kissed Dongchuan Che on the cheek, and rubbed Dongchuan Che's shoulder with her slippery headlights. She teased him a few times, causing Dongchuan Che's breathing to speed up for a moment, and then she stood up and left with a teasing smile.

"This guy's personality is becoming more and more unrestrained now."

It must be said that even though they have been living together for four or five years, Dongchuan Che felt a little uncomfortable after being teased by Yuezhu Asuka, a 1.75-meter-tall mixed-race beauty.

Seeing the energetic Xiao Dongchuan, Ohara Chika smiled and shook her head, then moved closer to him, put her big hand on the big leg of his basketball pants, and then.

Basketball shorts need to be belted, the waist is a bit tight, but the trouser legs are very loose

The sudden coldness made Dongchuan Che stunned for a moment, and he tilted his head to look at Ohara Chika who was leaning on his shoulder, "Didn't you say..."

"If it's just the hands, Nanako won't be able to see it from this angle. Okay, okay, let's get down to business!"

Leaning on Fuyukawa Che's shoulder, Chika Ohara looked down slightly, her pretty face slightly red, and then she continued to speak while exerting slight force with her fingers: "Things about World of Warcraft are almost over. However, if we follow our previous plan, and the number of online users of World of Warcraft exceeds 20 million, are you sure to postpone the release date of the handheld console for a while?"

"Don't do that, I want to play for a while longer."

"Let's get down to business! If you keep talking nonsense, I won't care about you anymore!"

"Haha, I see. Really, you're becoming more and more funny."

Feeling the coolness, Dongchuan Che took a deep breath. However, when he found that Ohara Chika pouted again, he smiled and fetched a pack of cigarettes from the side, lit it, and then propped up the bench with his hands, slightly leaning forward with his waist, enjoying it while thinking, "Postpone it. Although Pokémon and the handheld are ready for sale, World of Warcraft is so popular that it would be a waste not to take advantage of it."

Dongchuan Che looked at the sky and spoke thoughtfully.

Yes, the release of Pokémon and the handheld game console will be delayed.

There is no other reason, just to take advantage of the popularity of World of Warcraft.

In his original plan, World of Warcraft would not be a catastrophic failure, but this is no longer the era of PC online games, and there hasn't been a super hit PC online game for a long time. Therefore, he is not sure how popular World of Warcraft will be.

However, as before, he would always make plans with the women in his family to deal with various situations before doing anything.

If World of Warcraft dies suddenly, he has a way to deal with it; if World of Warcraft doesn't get much response, he also has a plan to deal with it; if World of Warcraft becomes a big hit, the same is true! In the plan he and Chika Ohara and Miyano Miono conceived, as long as World of Warcraft becomes a big hit, the Hearthstone project will be launched!

Or to be more precise, the Hearthstone project had actually been launched within the company a long time ago.

It’s just that Hearthstone is a card battle game, which is not difficult to make. The more time-consuming parts are the gameplay settings and the various card illustrations.

The gameplay is the core difficulty for game producers, but for Dongchuan Che

Although Dongchuan Che would often make some adjustments and improvements to the gameplay of his previous life according to his own preferences and the results of market research, this was essentially an act of reaping fruits by standing on the shoulders of giants. It was risky, but not difficult.

As for card illustrations, Sayoko has been handling this business with a team of 100 painters since the middle of last year.

Yes, a team of hundreds of painters.

This is also due to the fact that Shengguang Society is a large company spanning multiple fields of culture and art.

For most game companies, the production cycle of a game is usually four years or more. However, not all the time is spent on production. Exploring the gameplay and plot also take up a lot of time. Therefore, most game companies do not employ so many on-site artists in the company. Many tasks are outsourced. After all, this can save a lot of expenses.

In fact, if Shengguangshe was just a pure game company, Dongchuan Che would not have hired so many painters. But Shengguangshe has animation and comics business in addition to game business.

Needless to say, there are more than one or two painters in the animation team.

The same is true for comics.

Although there is only one name in the author column on the comics, the comics are not actually created by the comic author alone. In addition to the main creator, there are also assistants who are responsible for repetitive painting work, colorists who color the black and white line drawings, storyboard artists who plan the layout of each page and the angle of the camera, and so on.

But in fact, including assistants, colorists, etc., they are not actually assistants or colorists. They are just not able to become independent painters, so they need to learn from others. And these newcomers in the industry generally do not have formal contracts.

Yes, there is no formal contract.

Many people always complain that Japanese anime is not as sophisticated as before.

This is either true or false.

Although there are many exquisitely crafted anime now, such as "The Burial of Frillen", "Demon Slayer", "Spy Play", "Lonely Rock", etc., but from the perspective of the entire industry, it is indeed not as prosperous as before.

One of the fundamental reasons for this phenomenon is actually the uneven distribution caused by poor government supervision.

It is said that the Japanese animation industry is declining, but last year, the scale of Japan's domestic comics market reached a record high. Although the animation industry has declined slightly compared to the previous year, it has only declined slightly by about 3% after more than years of continuous growth.

Everything proves that Japan's comics and animation market is getting better and better, but the money is not earned by middle and low-level painters and writers, most of it is taken away by companies.

There are a large number of freelancers in Japan's animation and comics industry.

The official government glorifies it as "free people who don't want to be bound by constraints", but this is actually the same concept as "flexible employment".
