Chapter 127 Poke your lung tube!

After hanging up the phone with Spielberg, Ethan also accepted the other party's suggestion and dialed the number of the Fox contact in his hand, which was the project manager of Star Wars.

That is the fat guy who questioned whether the movie could be released in the screening room.

When he learned that Ethan was here for help, a surprised voice came from the other end of the phone, "Oh Ethan! We always thought that silent response was your plan..."

Although the game "Star Wars" is the soft and popular movie, when signing the contract, whether it was Ethan or Fox, there was no other sovereign clause on the production and promotion of this game.

Ethan didn't want to hand over his game to Fox for promotion. He felt that this was his project, and Fox and the others didn't want to interfere in the game promotion without authorization.

The reason is also very simple.

First of all, they think that the movie "Star Wars" really has no possibility of saving it. They are the ones who are taking advantage of the popularity. Since they are weak, don't point fingers.

Secondly, Hollywood actually has an unspoken rule, that is, superstitious strong people. If one person can succeed one after another, they will hold each other mindlessly.

Although Ethan has only emerged for two years, the two big-selling games have reached the standard of superstition, so when Ethan said that he would make his own games by himself, Fox really wouldn't even be able to play it.

Therefore, even if the wind sounds outside, no matter how strange Ethan's behavior is, they can sit firmly on Diaoyutai. In their opinion, Ethan has a solution.

But when they found out that it was not that Ethan was not in a hurry, but that he had never been exposed to the Hollywood offensive at all, a surprise arose. Of course, the so-called surprise was only a moment, and then it was like Spielberg.

As said, he has returned to professionalism.

"Ethan, we agree with your idea and use the game to respond to the game."

"Because Mirohua and Atari have already stirred up the news, if it is announced at this time that your Destiny Game has completed the design of new products and will bring them to the market in the near future, then I believe, North America

The public's attention to the public will definitely be much higher than normal publicity and promotion."

"Of course, I admit that the response you made at this time is also very beneficial to us. When people learn that your new game is called Star Wars, the source of inspiration is Lucas' movie, then we

Fox can also use this cooperation to negotiate with theaters in North America and ask them to make more screenings for the movie "Star Wars".

"But these are ideal, before you respond formally, we want to know, where has your game been made? We want to know the specific situation, because for us in Hollywood, all the products are

Special things should be handled specifically when promoting the promotion."

"Take Atari and Mirohua's machines as an example, why do they attack you in public opinion? This is because they know that no matter how good their machines are, they can't come up with Pac Man.

It’s a game that’s comparable, so only when you step on it in public opinion can they gain real attention from people and real support to buy with a wielding knife.”

Ethan raised the corner of his mouth as the fat supervisor said.

Although this guy's judgment in the movie is not as sharp as a world famous director, his response in Hollywood promotion still satisfies Ethan.

Since Mirohua and Atari were determined to pull him into the water, he fulfilled the wishes of the two families and followed suit to steal the popularity they had already hyped up?

oh--

Ethan likes this idea very much!

So he answered the question the fat supervisor wanted to know.

When the Fox guy learned that the development progress of Star Wars was steadily advancing, just one of the last small features could be officially concluded, and the beta version of the game is now available...

He was in Los Angeles and was immediately surprised. He then drove all the way and arrived at Palo Alto in just five hours, hoping to test the quality of the game.

After he witnessed the extremely complete first-generation test game, which was not loaded with impact algorithms, the endless confrontational gameplay, and the sense of oppression that could not stop for a moment made him pick up the rocker and slam it in front of APPLE 2 for a while!

And he's sitting...

Even more than three hours!

If it wasn't for the meal time and Ethan called him to get up and have dinner, then this guy would probably be able to sit in front of APPLE 2 for a few more hours and play forever!

"Oh Ethan-This game is really fun with special code!"

"Although the gameplay is simpler than Pac Man, it is to control the Millennium Falcon to hit the spacecraft, and the path and route of the spacecraft are also fixed, with only two differences in speed and slowness, but it has a magic power that can keep playing with my nerves tight!"

"Oh by the way! Whenever the Millennium Falcon destroys a group of enemies, the spaceship attack from the Galaxy Empire is also very interesting! Their shooting makes me feel that I am not fighting against the machine! It seems that there is really a person on the other end of the screen! He wants to kill me!"

Ethan smiled with such words.

After all, in this world, few people can reject the praise of the same kind.

However, just when he asked whether the game responded to the game's replies could be put directly on the agenda, Fox's fat supervisor shook his head and directly denied-

"No, Ethan, I don't recommend you to do this."

"Why?" Ethan was a little confused.

"Because there is a problem with your game," he said with a smile. "If I read it correctly, your game adopts the design philosophy of Space War?"

‘?’

Ethan frowned slightly and said, "Do you think Star Wars adopts the design concept of Space Wars? Oh - are these two games completely different? "

"Space Wars is a two-player battle game where two players control different spacecraft to fight in space. As long as one player defeats another player, the game will end. Star Wars is a defensive game where players face endless enemies!"

"The gameplay of these two games is obviously different!"

"How can this be considered a reference?"

Ethan doesn't understand.

In his opinion, Fox's fat supervisor had a core mistake in his description of the game "Star Wars"!

Because no matter from any perspective, the gameplay of "Space Wars" is PVP, while "Star Wars" or "Space Invaders" is PVE. When there is a difference between these two games in essence, if this can still be regarded as a reference, Newton's coffin board will really not be able to cover it!

It doesn't make sense, right!

However, in the face of Ethan's doubts, the fat supervisor smiled and said, "Ethan, I'm very angry, right? This is actually the situation after you use normal means to release the game to the public."

"You will definitely face such doubts."

"We said before that we should use games to respond to games. There is actually no problem with this statement."

"But the real problem is that when you release the game publicly, your opponent will definitely grab your problem and attack crazy."

‘?’

Ethan still didn't understand.

The fat director of Fox was not anxious and continued: "Ethan, please recall who is the founder of Atari who wants to step on you now?"

"Nolan Bushnell." Ethan replied quickly.

"Have he copied the game "Space War" before he founded Atari?"

"Yes." Ethan nodded and said, "And he also suffered a Waterloo on this project..."

Before Ethan finished speaking, Fox's fat supervisor slapped his hands and said, "This is the problem!"

"When your competitor has made space games, your similar products are in his eyes, or in the eyes of Warner behind him, that is plagiarism!"

"They will definitely attack you crazily, indicating that you have copied their creativity, or the creativity of your predecessors!"

"Countless media will definitely declare to the public that you have lost the source of inspiration now! You will only copy other people's works now!"

"As for what the consequences of such a thing?"

“It’s not important to them at all!”

"Because as long as you can discredit you, that's enough!"

"Don't think they can't do such things. We, Fox, have known them for so many years, and we have seen too many small tricks in publicity and promotion!"

"When you can only gain market by killing your opponent-"

"Then they will definitely stab you to death without hesitation!"

Fox's fat supervisor looked at Ethan seriously.

The murderous aura that came to his face in his words made Ethan's heart tremble.

Although he was not sure whether this guy said something was right or wrong, he personally felt that if he really responded, what the fat supervisor said might really become a reality.

After all, the endless stomping allowed him to see the shamelessness of a large company.

As for what is the direct prosecution for damage to reputation?

Stop kidding-

No matter what happens, as long as the litigation process is entered, the party who filed the lawsuit will actually lose.

Because a lawsuit takes a long time, even if the lawsuit can be won, it will be the best time to release the product.

And the people are forgetful.

A person's injustice will only make them sigh at the events of the past for a second, and then...

It's gone.

‘Damn it! These slingers are really a pitfall!’

Ethan cursed in his heart.

At the same time, he also humbly asked for advice, "So your opinion is..."
