Chapter 29 Shopping Mall Challenge
Takahashi started earlier than he went to the sky today because it was Saturday, so he had to go to the company first, and then go to the mall on the other end of Tokyo with the convoy.
In order not to affect the normal business of the mall, they must arrange all the things needed for activities before the mall officially opens.
Before the sun rose, the end of the horizon turned white.
There were not many pedestrians on the street, and the family's 24-hour convenience store was empty. After buying two hot buns here, Takahashi continued to rush to the company.
When I arrived at the backyard of the company, a truck was parked there. Several staff members were chatting there, and Takahashi helped to bring several arcade machines into the car. The car slowly started and headed towards the destination.
Takahashi originally wanted to see the scenery around, but unfortunately the truck seats were full. Unless he took a taxi, he could only sit in the cargo box behind him.
It is impossible to take a taxi. It is too expensive and will not be reimbursed.
The Finance Department has told Takahashi before that whether you are downstairs or going out, there are only so many bonuses every day, and there will be no more tickets when you have a train, and there will be no fewer tickets without a train.
The warehouse that closed the door was not shining and was pitch black. Apart from a little bumpy and a strange noise that collided with the goods, it was actually pretty good overall. At least it was much larger than the house he and his uncle rented.
"Horry for the money."
Takahashi comforted himself, so he began to close his eyes and rest in order to save more energy.
You should know that today's activity lasts all day. Although you don't have much physical work, even if you stand alone for a day, you won't feel very good.
Unless you really like it or are particularly addicted, most people will not keep playing the same game day after day. It would be strange if you don’t cry monotonously.
When the door opened, the sun had already risen.
Takahashi, who saw the light again, moved the arcade machine out of the car with a few people.
It took less than an hour to pull the wires and set the audio to decorate the venue.
Ten minutes left before the mall opened for business, Takahashi returned to the car, took off his dirty clothes, and changed into a T-shirt with Hudson's English logo and Little Bee logo printed on it.
Although most people have holidays today, because it is morning, they probably sleep in, so there are not many people in the mall.
There are not many people, so there is no way to cause a herd effect. Even if two or three children stop occasionally, they will be pulled away by their parents.
Parents cannot say that they are resistant to electronic games, but they don’t like to let their children get in touch with arcades. Besides, today they are going to come to shop and take care of their children, and it would be even more stupid if they waste time here.
Of course, the most important thing is that Takahashi is not popular here at all.
Although the children stopped to look at each other because of curiosity, they had never seen Takahashi not recognize who he was. Is it interesting to watch an ordinary person playing games? It's boring. It won't be more interesting than playing on their own.
No one knows Takahashi, which is why Kudo sent Takahashi here.
Although Takahashi is already well-known in Akihabara, Tokyo is really too big. Chiyoda Valley where Akihabara is located knows you, and Nyoma Valley will also know it?
What Kudo thought was to let the whole of Tokyo and even Japan know Hudson through a series of activities. Naturally, it was impossible to just let Takahashi move in Akihabara.
It was almost nine o'clock, and the situation did not follow the script written by Hiroshi Kudo.
No one came to challenge Takahashi, and the atmosphere did not gradually heat up like the plan.
Takahashi thought about it and simply did it before the arcade. It doesn’t matter if there are any challengers, so just play it yourself.
The music "Star Power" flowing from the arcade horn is particularly conspicuous in the mall. Many people look at it when they hear arcade music.
Takahashi sat upright and performed each operation seriously. At the same time, the corresponding sound effects appeared from the speaker.
It takes about twenty minutes to complete the level. Takahashi did not choose to attack Cleopatra, so he directly challenged the final level to pass the level.
The originally empty scoreboard scored Takahashi's game results this time.
“GQ?”
Although there is no such thing as a player name in the current arcade, you cannot use the names used by others. However, no one can use the names of experts indiscriminately.
Even if you use this name before the master, if you overlap with the master's activity area, you still have to change your name.
Of course, this is not mandatory. It’s okay not to change, but it’s more troublesome to not change.
People from other places, when they hear the reputation of masters, come to challenge them, see you and masters with the same name, and think you are a master, they will compete with you.
At this time, are you explaining that you are not a master using this name, or are you getting up to fight?
Therefore, although Takahashi has never been to the Ninma District, urban legends have spread very quickly. The reputation of "GQ" has spread almost all over Tokyo. Except for Takahashi, almost all people who use the "GQ" nickname have given up on the name "GQ".
Because "GQ" represents the number one person in "Star Power", no one wants to cause trouble because of the reputable reputation.
People who truly understand the industry will not be too nervous when they see the scores on the rankings.
Although this score is already very high, it has not been achieved to the extreme. It is not impossible to surpass this score.
Someone continued to watch for a while and found that this was not a scam troupe, but an official troupe. He chuckled, "But so, the spread is so amazing, I think it's so powerful." Then he walked onto the stage.
Having a challenger is a good sign, at least it won’t continue to be a cold show.
After Takahashi said, "Please give me some advice", he threw a coin into the machine and waited for his opponent to start the game together.
Because he didn't know his opponent's strength, Takahashi did not release water in the first level. At the end of the first level, he glanced at the scoring board opposite and knew what level it was. He started to release water of the corresponding level.
Releasing water in the competition is not only a technical job, but also a test of the psychological quality of the releasing water.
If you put too much, it will not be exciting. If you put too much, you will lose.
The reason why Takahashi hasn't played with it for so long is that he is the only one who can beat the Egyptian queen's head.
But he knew that it was not the only one who could beat Cleopatra's head. As long as he had enough patience and practiced targeted for one or two months every day, he could also practice it.
Therefore, Takahashi is increasingly optimizing his water release technology. How to release the most water while ensuring unbeaten and make the game more intense has become Takahashi's biggest topic in "Interstellar Power".
However, he also knew that the life cycle of "Star Power" was only one or two months left.
Before Shinobu Nakamoto went back to Sapporo, he had already told Takahashi that he would go back this time with the hardware department to develop the sequel to "Star Power", the arcade and red-white version of "Super Power".
Once the game is designed, it will completely replace "Star Power" and become Hudson's main product. At that time, "Star Power" will be like a sock you can throw away at any time for Hudson.
The reason he reminded Takahashi was to avoid Takahashi focusing all his energy on such a game that was destined to be eliminated in a short period of time.
In Shinchi Nakamoto's opinion, if you have the energy, it is better to learn how to develop games. In his opinion, the latter is more promising.
The opponent did not choose to fight Cleopatra, nor did Takahashi choose.
After a few minutes of fighting between the two, Takahashi finally won by a slight advantage.
The rankings were refreshed by the scores of two people, Takahashi stood up and gave the challenger a souvenir prize.
The challenger did not ask for the prize or even stood up. He felt that he could win, so he continued to throw a coin and started to challenge.
Chapter completed!
