Although Masashi Tajiri did not understand why Jia Yapeng was interested in the Pokemon game, since Jia Yapeng was willing to give him an additional 20 million as a personal reward, Masashi Tajiri was more than happy to oblige.
However, the company did not belong to Masashi Tajiri alone. The entire company was established by the three core members of the university. The other two core members were also the pillars of the research and development of Pokemon. Therefore, the transfer of shares had to be approved by the other two core members.
However, this was not a problem. The company was able to sell for 50 million yen, which was beyond their expectations. With the assistance of professional lawyers, Masashi Tajiri and his other two partners signed a company transfer agreement with Jia Yapeng. The moment both parties signed, the company that Masashi Tajiri created, along with all the games under the company, belonged to Jia Yapeng alone.
This result made Jia Yapeng overjoyed. This way, Pokemon was firmly in his hands and could not be taken away by outsiders.
If this acquisition failed, Jia Yapeng still had other tricks up his sleeve. For example, the 144 Pokemon images of the first generation of Pokemon were all copyrighted by Jia Yapeng, and they were all global copyrights. When the time came, as long as he was one step ahead and released Pokemon before Masashi Tajiri, he still had a considerable chance of winning.
However, the key problem lay with Nintendo. If Nintendo sided with Masashi Tajiri and did not allow Jia Yapeng's games to be released in GB, Jia Yapeng could only turn to SEGA. Then, the outcome would be 50-50.
However, perhaps this would allow Sega to get rid of their old rival, Nintendo, in the future. After all, anything was possible.
After the contract was successfully signed, Jia Yapeng stayed at Masashi Tajiri's house and began to develop strategies and various gameplay with Masashi Tajiri and the others.
In order to hide himself, Jia Yapeng pretended that he did not know anything about Pokemon at first. It was only through Masashi Tajiri and the other two partners that he gradually became familiar with their ideas about Pokemon.
However, it was only 1992, and there were still four years before the game was released in 1996. At this time, the three of them only had some very simple ideas for Pokemon, and they finished it in a few words.
Then, it was Jia Yapeng's turn to show them.
Masashi Tajiri and the other two quickly realized that Jia Yapeng was a gaming genius. At the very least, he was a gaming genius.
After they told Jia Yapeng their vague game ideas, Jia Yapeng immediately fell into place. At the same time, the ideas became more and more rich and perfect.
For example, all of the Pokemon had to be beautiful and cute. Pokemon had to be beautiful. Tajiri and had originally imagined dozens of dark Pokemon.. but other than Pokemon and Stone, and a few others, the rest were all discarded by Jia.
Anyway, all of the Pokemon had to be cute. Those that were not cute were all discarded.
Secondly, the core of the game was to fight and collect. Players' Pokemon and wild Pokemon would fight to subdue the Pokemon. Finally, collecting all of the Pokemon would be the ultimate goal.
At the same time, to increase the game's stickiness and playtime, they had to design a few Pokemon that were very difficult to catch. The system even limited the chances of catching Pokemon by thousands of hours of playtime. For example, Dream.
In any case, all the players had to do their best to unlock all of the Little Elf Illustration Handbooks.
Lastly, and most importantly, they had to make use of the GB's unique feature of being able to communicate with each other. Players could use the GB to let their Pokemon fight against their opponent's Pokemon. The winner would receive special rewards and so on.
There were even transactions between Pokemon.
In the end, Jia Yapeng, who was chatting excitedly, had even set the background of the entire story. Things like the future of the Earth's Spiritual Energy Revival, the ancient Pokemon reawakening, and then living in peace with humans. Humans had also researched the Pokemon Ball and other things like that.
Then the game map was divided into various regions. The first step could be in the Fusang region, then the second step could be in the Hua Xia region, then in Europe, then in the United States. In any case, there were as many regions as there were countries in the world. In the future, when the countries ran out of resources, they could make up some regions or start all over again.
In any case, by that time, there would probably be hundreds of generations. The first generation of players would have no bones left. Let the later generations do the work.
At the same time, each region would have different types of Pokemon. This way, they could continue to develop the second and third generations, and even endless generations.
If it was said that the four of them were discussing with each other at the beginning, then towards the end, it was Jia Yapeng who was speaking alone. Xia Qiu Shiyu was scratching her head and trying hard to translate, while the other three were frantically taking notes.
After this discussion, the three of them were completely convinced by Jia Yapeng. Later on, Tajiri even asked Jia Yapeng, "President, have you already played this game in your dreams?"
"That's right!" Jia Yapeng nodded emotionally. Tajiri Tomoaki was full of admiration.
The most difficult part of a game was not the programming, but the overall concept and design of the game, as well as the rich details.
Jia Yapeng alone helped Tajiri and the others design all the various things that would have taken them two to three years to adjust. Hence, Tajiri and the others confidently started to create the game according to Jia Yapeng's concept.
The game that originally needed to be completed in 1996 would probably be completed in 1994 at most.
During this time, Tajiri also took out the images of more than ten Pokemon that he had designed and handed them to Jia Yapeng. Tajiri's original intention was to let Jia Yapeng see if they were cute or not. Other than that, he had no other intentions.
Unexpectedly, after Jia Yapeng saw the Pokemon that he had designed, he immediately picked up the paintbrush and began to modify the original draft.
At first, Tajiri was a little afraid. He thought that Jia Yapeng was dissatisfied with the Pokemon that he had designed and wanted to destroy them all. However, he did not expect Jia Yapeng to draw directly on the drawing paper. With just a few paintbrushes, he skillfully changed the Pokemon from head to toe.
Although their appearance and body shape were similar to Tajiri's and were modified based on Tajiri's inspiration, Tajiri felt that after Jia Yapeng's modifications, the Pokemon became completely different people.
From the original bloated and ugly elves, they instantly turned into cute creatures with distinct colors. They were super cute creatures that no one could resist. Especially after Jia Yapeng's modification of the Yu Sanjia, Tajiri Tomoaki, the creator of the Yu Sanjia, threw his original image aside and was deeply addicted to Jia Yapeng's new image.
What shocked Tajiri even more was Jia Yapeng's drawing skills. In his opinion, Jia Yapeng, who was not famous in the game company in the future, was a god-like figure. Every image that was modified by his paintbrush was cute and had bright colors. This was beyond the drawing skills and abilities of this era.
"President, if you don't open a game company and switch to an art gallery, you'll be the best artist of this era!" Tajiri praised sincerely.
"Ah, it's a pity that I don't have a computer or software. Otherwise, I'll let you know what a bleeding book is!" President Jia sighed.
"Right, let's change the name of the company. The current name is too tongue-twisting. Change it!" Because Honda Ichiro said that the Careless Snack Association wanted to start the review of crispy noodle snacks and hoped that Boss Jia would hurry back to Tokyo to attend the meeting, Jia Yapeng had to temporarily leave the place where he could make games in peace.
However, before he left, President Jia suggested that they change the name.
Now that Jia Yapeng was the boss of the company, the other three naturally had no objections. Therefore, under President Jia's modification, the company's name was officially changed to Rocket Team Game Production Company. This name sounded a little strange.
