In the end, after a fierce psychological struggle, Hideo Kojima chose the second one...

Jester didn't know why Kojima chose the second one. In fact, for him, a real genius like Hideo Kojima, no matter which of these two options he chose, Jester would fully support them. Of course, in Jester's heart, he naturally hoped that Hideo Kojima would choose the second one. After all, Hideo Kojima is still too immature, even so immature that he has never officially participated in the development of the game, which gave him in-depth exposure to how a large-scale game was produced from scratch. It is very useful for a newcomer.

After recalling the conversation that had just passed, Jester washed up and prepared to go to bed. He still had a lot of things tomorrow, especially there was an interview with a new employee tomorrow, and several of them were here to apply for R&D personnel. Jester also wanted to see what Yuxiu Yoshiro said before, how bad the quality of the applicants, especially R&D personnel, is.

When Jester arrived at his Japanese branch the next day, he unexpectedly got good news.

After arriving in Japan, Hiroshi Sakaguchi, who left immediately, called back. He is now in Hokkaido and went to the hot springs with his composer Nobuo Uematsu to find inspiration. However, after his persuasion, Nobuo Uematsu, who was not interested, had promised to come to Jester after he returned from Hokkaido to see if he could take on the soundtrack work this time.

After receiving the news, Jester couldn't help but clench his fists hard. This news was very important to him, and Nobuo Uematsu was also a game music composer he wanted very much.

Compared with the top Japanese composers who have achieved success now, such as Sojiro, Mori Yoshiro, or Hiraishi, and even Tetsuro Oda, who has just emerged and is known as a genius, getting Nobuo Uematsu, who is not very famous now is the most profitable deal for Jester, because Jester knows clearly that although Nobuo Uematsu is not as famous as those above, he has been able to complete the quality of "Final Fantasy" for more than 10 or 20 years.

And the above people cannot limit all their energy to the game soundtrack for decades, because for these people, the stage of the game soundtrack is too small.

As for whether Nobuo Uematsu could complete the soundtrack of "Flame Emblem", Jester had no doubt at all. Because the ethereal and ethereal expression that Nobuo Uematsu showed in "Final Fantasy", like a flowing cloud and water, full of Western romanticism, was the music that was very suitable for him.

Jester thought silently in his heart that in the new R&D team he was about to establish, he had three candidates officially confirmed - Hiroshinobu Sakaguchi, Hiroshima, Hideo Kojima and half of the candidates who had not yet been confirmed - Nobuo Uematsu. He was silently reciting these names. A sudden smile appeared on his face that was indescribable. In this smile, there were many emotions, pride, confidence, and so on.

He really didn't expect that he would have recruited so many legendary figures inadvertently.

This is a legendary R&D team.

With such a powerful camp working together, what level can the world's "Flame Emblem" reach?

When Jester thought of this, he was particularly looking forward to it.

After two hours.

Jester and Yuxiu Yoshiro have interviewed four consecutive people who have participated in the application for game developers. Although these four people have not had high academic qualifications, the best one is just a university graduate who has never even heard of Yuxiu Yoshiro. However, the game industry has little to do with the level of education. Jester knows many famous designers who are not well-known schools, have never even attended college, or are expelled from college.

So, he didn't care much at the beginning.

But after four people in a row, although three of them were Jester or Mars Entertainment fans, they knew very little about their understanding of the game and even the basic common sense that some of the most basic R&D personnel should have. After the interview with the four people, Jester suddenly felt a sense of despair. If they were all at this level, then why should they continue?

However, he thought that in this situation, Dalang Taosha found Hideo Kojima, so Jester still had to resist and continue the interview.

There were a total of ten people who came to apply for game development this time. Jester took advantage of the gap when the previous interviewer went out and began to look through the resume below.

However, the resumes are all in Japanese, and most of the contents above are not very clear. However, in the name column, the real name is used - the characters in Japanese are divided into real names and kanas. The real name is Chinese characters, and the ones other than Chinese characters are called kanas. In Japan, although their names can be written in the form of pseudonym spelling, in real formal occasions, in order to show their respect for this matter, this person or such occasion, they usually write their real name.

For example, on a Japanese business card, it is the real name, and on an invitation, it is also the real name, and on a resume, it is naturally the real name.

So if you just look at the name, Jester still knows it.

Just turned the page quickly and saw a very familiar name. In a shock, he couldn't help but draw out the resume and carefully looked at the black and white photos on the resume. The photo was slightly immature, which gradually overlapped with the appearance of a person in his memory.

Matsuno Yakihiko.

At this moment, a new candidate pushed the door open. This was a young applicant who looked very young from his face, had a little messy hair, and had just shaved his beard and looked a little blue.

After he came in, he bowed and said his name.

He spoke Japanese, and Jester didn't know what he was talking about, but judging from his appearance, it was Matsuno Yakihiko.

Tamahiko Yoshiro, who was sitting next to Jester, glanced at Matsuno Yaki's resume that Jester was holding in his hand, and then reminded him in a low voice: "He is Matsuno Yaki, a top student at Japan University of Political Science and Law, but he has dropped out of school. He has a very similar hobby to Hideo Kojima before. He hopes to become a director or a game designer, but the results are not great, so he originally planned to resume school, but after seeing our recruitment notice, he postponed the resumption time and rushed from Tokyo to participate in our recruitment."

Hearing Yu Hideyoshiro's words, Jester looked at the young man in front of him seriously. To be honest, the young Taiji Matsuno was still very similar to Taiji Matsuno twenty or thirty years later, and his body shape did not change much. He was as thin as he was.

Looking at the slightly familiar young man in front of him, some scattered memories of Matsuno Yakihiko could not help but flash in Jester's mind.

If Matsuno's favorite things besides movies and video games, it's dnd and rock, especially Queens, which is his favorite, which is the same as Jester. However, Matsuno's favorite Queens song is queen-ii, which perfectly shows Freddy McCree's ethereal and clear voice and the weird and rippling heavy metal rhythm.

Among the information about Matsuno Yaki that Jester has read, the famous masterpiece "ogre-battle" was created in the boring day and night. The deeply infected Matsuno Yaki actually created a full eight-chapter mythical novel "ogre-battle-saga", which is taken from the first song on the b-side of the record.

This English name may not be familiar to many domestic players, but after being translated into Chinese, many veteran players who have experienced that era will know in an instant that the Chinese translation of this game - "ogre-battle" is "The Royal Knights".

A true masterpiece.

And he, who is what Jester needs most, can write a magnificent, shocking and acceptable Western fantasy game plot script that can be used to widely use cinematic narrative techniques to portray the characters' personalities and promote the plot. It is also very suitable for Jester's understanding of "The Emblem of Fire".

After Tamahiro asked Matsuno Tamahiro some simple personal questions, Jester made a gesture to Tamahiro, and they had made an appointment before. As long as Jester made this gesture, it means that Jester would ask questions in person.

"Can you speak English?" Jester first asked this question. This condition is very important in Jester's eyes. After all, his team will start the research and development of "Flame Emblem" in the United States. The employees must have a large number of Americans. All employees must be able to communicate normally and communicate in ideas. Therefore, English is a skill that must be mastered.

Hearing Jester's words, Matsuno Yaki nodded. His English was very stiff, especially the biggest disadvantage of speaking English in Japan was that it was unable to issue a lot of voiced words, which was also reflected in him. However, after Jester's hard listening, he could still understand what he was saying.

For example, just now, when Jester asked him if he could speak English, he stammered and said something, not too skillful.

Jester frowned at first when he heard this reply.

“So can we have daily conversations?”

This time, Matsuno Yaki nodded: "If you don't speak fast, there will be no big problem."

"Okay, I'll ask you a few questions first." Jester also responded. At the same time, he picked up the resume of Matsuno Yakihiko who had placed on the table before, and then said, "I saw you say you like role-playing games with DND rules, and you also like to read Western fantasy novels. You are also very confident in your writing style. You often earn online fees by publishing articles to school newspapers during your school days - then, if I asked you to write a Western fantasy novel, can you do it?"

As soon as Jester finished speaking, a strange look appeared on Matsuno Yakichi's face.

He looked at the serious expression that Jester deliberately squeezed out with a stern face, swallowed, thought for a few seconds, and replied: "Mr. Interviewer, I am actually creating a novel similar to what you are talking about, but I only wrote two chapters. If you agree, I can show you the novel that two chapters are in my briefcase, and my briefcase is outside the room."

This surprised Jester. He didn't know when "ogre-battle-saga" was created by Matsuno Yaki Matsuno, so Jester paused and asked about the name of the novel written by Matsuno Yaki.

And Matsuno Yakihiko didn't doubt him, he answered simply and clearly.
Chapter completed!
