Game Market 1983 Chapter 170

Chapter 170

“Raon really wanted to do it. ”
Thanks to the first words that came out of the mouth of a child who lived in his old life, Raon caused a big social issue.
This is unexpected. ’
While smiling at the newspaper I brought from the hospital this morning, Yuki, who was carving an apple next to him, pouted his mouth and gave him a pinglass.
“What do you like so much? I came back hurt. I'm so frustrated...”
Thanks to the bandage wrapped around his right shoulder, I folded the newspaper gently into Yuki's words while wearing an armband around my neck. It's because I decided that nothing good would come of messing with her.
“I don't need to be admitted...”
“No. You need to be hospitalized to get some rest. ”
“Oh... Seohyun rested for a month because of the birth...”
“Hmmm! I just didn't leave the company. You think I didn't know I was talking to Rob and Chandra? ”
“... a ghost.”
“I've felt it for a really long time, but Joon-Hyuk, do you know you're a workaholic? Someone really thinks the Pentagon representative is you, not Kawaguchi. ”
After being stabbed by Yuki's complaint, I clear-headed my throat and looked out the window. Meanwhile, she put a beautifully cut piece of apple on the plate and wiped out the parchment.
I glanced back at Yuki and opened my mouth with a slight smile.
“After the launch of Complete Raon, should we go on a trip together? Leave Seohyun to his mother-in-law for a while...”
Then Yuki looked at me with his eyes wide open.
“What brings you here? With all that talk about traveling first? ”
“ · · · · · ·. ”
Have I been working too hard?
After the honeymoon, I've been to a hot spring in Fukuoka.
Yuki's reaction was not that he didn't understand.
“Come to think of it, I've been working too hard, so I think I'll take my time...”
“Hmmm, that's a great idea, but isn't the console called The Complete Raon getting really busy again? ”
“Well, the Pentagon isn't as small a corporation as it used to be, and you wouldn't have to worry about that without me. ”
“When did Joon-Hyuk put me to work? He's a self-made type. ”
“That's right...”
Yuki gave me a slice of apple, raising her mouth tail in joy because it was fun to embarrass me. But even with this exhilarating atmosphere, momentarily, an enormous disruptor appeared...
“Joon Hyuk! How are you feeling? ”
The one who appeared shaking the fruit basket with the door combination was Jun Fei, as expected.
“Welcome, Junpei. ”
“Yuki, there you are. How's he doing? ”
“The doctor said that besides the skin being torn, the muscles were damaged, so I should rest for a few days, so I forced him into the hospital. ”
“Well done. You're absolutely right. ”
Oh my... Have you seen a bear like that?
Soon after looking at Yuki's tail, I said something to Yuki.
“Do you know who saved your life? ”
“Ah! That was awesome... Grabbing the collapsing concrete wall, ‘Junpei is dangerous!! Get out of here!!" who used to say... ”
“Wow! Joon-Hyuk really said that? ”
... No, I think it's a bit much.
Jun Fei nodded at Yuki's question and swung his wink at me.
“But what are you doing here? ”
“It's no big deal, but I brought some of our magazines from this month in case you get bored. ”
“Huh? I thought the issue was tomorrow? ”
“Well, I didn't have anything to bring, so I took it out the day before I left. ”
“Oh, I'm so proud of you. ”
Yuki urged Junpei to hand over a fairly thick magazine to me with a chopped apple.
“Oh my, I'll eat this well. ”
Jun Fei smiles as she pours a piece of apple from Yuki into her mouth, wondering if she was hungry. Then I looked at the magazine and asked him.
“How is the industry doing after the earthquake? ”
“It's no big deal. Mintendo also had a problem with the production line because of the earthquake damage to Kyoto. In the meantime, since the Pentagon is leading the relief effort, we can't just sit back and watch... We're going to hate them a lot. You…”
“Isn't life supposed to be the time? ”
And I said, "Yeah, that's exactly the kind of timing that's been on the news with you and me, and it's been the most varietal thing that's happened to me lately. ”
“But now that I have Misato's contact information, isn't that good for you? ”
“Ugh… how could you do that? ”
“Oh, Jun Pyo, did you exchange your contact information with Misato? ”
“Oh, how did that...”
The day I went to volunteer at the avoided area.
Suddenly, Junpei and I, who had rescued the child together with the rescue workers, became the talk of the 9pm news.
Yuki was surprised when she got the news on TV that she wanted to come to my place right away, but...
But then I clearly saw it.
I was talking to Misato about the case. I saw the guy who was handing her his contacts.
“Wow… did you see that? ”
“It's better to deceive demons, isn't it? How dare you answer my calls? ”
“You have Yuki...”
Yuki's suspicious gaze shifts toward me in his strange nuance.
“Hey. What's Yuki doing out there? I'm just a broadcaster, so I thought it'd be nice to get along. ”
“Hmmm! Is that real? ”
At this time, I looked Yuki straight in the eyes and said, knowing that there is no backing.
“Of course.”

After the Kobe earthquake. Japan's economic situation has been severely affected. If not, the economic recession that followed from the '90s to disaster damage began to flow in a worse direction.
In particular, some companies that had production plants in the Kobe region saw an enormous shortage when the earthquake knocked them down.
Mintendo, closest to the earthquake affected area, made a donation of 300 million yen to migrants, and Sensoni and the NEGA also made small contributions following Pentagon Soft.
However, the Pentagon continued to regularly find the affected areas and did not stop volunteering, as well as refunding some of the inventory, depending on the hopes of the self-employed players running the game shop, or assisting them in opening a new shop.
- Pentagon Soft is the hope of the underprivileged. -
This morning, Kawaguchi's representative smiled satisfactorily as he saw the headlines of the Mainichi newspaper. Sitting face-to-face in the representative's room, I swallowed a cup of coffee prepared by Sayuri and leaned on the couch enjoying his reaction.
“Every article is very favorable. ”
“Of course. Because in the case of a typical self-employed person, the policy itself will be very helpful. ”
If you look at the news articles, you'll think you're spending a lot of money on self-employed people who run game shops in the Pentagon, but it's not that big.
Why? Well, considering the area affected by the earthquake, how many of them actually run game shops?
Especially since the disaster was a typical residential complex, most people who bought the game used Dendentown in Osaka, so the damage radius we presented was only about eight game shops, including small second-hand stores, that have submitted formal support requests to date.
Two of them asked for a refund of the Pentagon's products, so there were only six places we could help open a new store.
After signing the contract, they were soon to leave the affected area and move to a new city to run a game shop. But if there's one thing that's different from the usual game shops, it's that all the games they play are released by the Pentagon…
Since we had already pledged full support for the six outlets, the owners decided to follow our opinions.
The ‘full support’ presented to them was the right to sell the product a week earlier than the other regions when Complied Raon was subsequently launched.
Of course, even within the Pentagon, the provision of such a biased device has been described, but no one has argued that if there is a company or business owner who cannot tolerate a week of complaining for the reviewing of displaced people in the affected area, it is necessary to revisit their agreement.
In the last meeting, the Pentagon brand name was building tremendous trust in Japan as it triggered the earthquake, so I decided to launch 'Complete Raon’ at once, but I quietly raised my head.
“You seem to be mistaken, and one thing to be precise about is that Complete Raon is a game machine. And this is completely different from doing community service in disaster areas. The reason Nanko was dragged into the Sensoni to launch the ‘Iron Fist’ for the Gear Station and the 'Large Racer’ was highly acclaimed is because the completeness of their console was just as good and the software they had prepared to support it. On the other hand, our complete raon still lacks content to engage core and light users. In a situation like this, if you're just ahead of the corporate image and you launch a new console, you're going to be devastated. ”
“So... when are you thinking about launching the Pentagon's new console? ”
One weekly question ringing in the conference room, I looked at him for a moment and opened my mouth.
“The marketing of Complete Raon is going to be more software-oriented than consoles. ”
“Hmm? Are you referring to the next generation of games to be launched with Complete Raon if it's software? ”
“I can't tell you the details just yet...”
With the laser pointer switched down for the presentation, I raised my harpoon tail and smiled as confidently as I could.

In the spring of April, 1995, when the cherry blossoms bloomed...
A piece of promotional content was distributed around disaster affected areas and Osaka game shops.
Inside the CD with the Pentagon Soft logo was a video of a girl playing a guitar represented by a silhouette and a song she sang.
- A song titled "Cheerleader-" began to catch the footsteps of those who crossed the street with their unique sound and lyrics.
You've had a hard day.
A day like that when you don't do anything at all.
I know your sad heart...
You've been a very busy day.
A day like that where you can't even breathe.
I understand how you feel!
In a very different reality from the future I had dreamed of.
I'm getting tired, I'm getting frustrated.
But your world will come to pass.
I will always cheer for you.
“What the...? Whose song is that?”
At the end of the video that caught people's ears with just one barrel and a voice, there was only a line of phrases without any further explanation.
[Full Blast D-125.]
I mean, maybe I know someone who's quick to notice, but...
The day she debuted was the day of the launch of 'Complete Raon’.
