Hudson's hard power is far from weak. Not to say strong, but at least to get your hands on.

Among them, Hudson's hardware development department even participated in the research and development of the red and white machine, so that the Kudo brothers were able to meet Yamauchi himself and persuade him to become the first third party of the red and white machine.

However, the hardware development department is far away in Sapporo, the hometown of the Kudo brothers. Many of the engineers were Sapporo natives and didn't want to be away from home for too long, so they moved to Tokyo without following the company's focus.

As for the "idlers" in the game department who seem to be useless, they are all old employees who choose to stay in the company during the company's most difficult time.

In the eyes of Yuji Kudo, these are brothers who share weal and woe. He believes that a person's character is more important than the technical strength that a person possesses.

Therefore, Takahashi, an outsider who has just arrived, feels very strange to see that there are so many "incompetent people" in the company. But for the company's old employees, they are used to it.

If even the "brothers" who came together in the hardest days would be fired, would this company still be able to unite people's hearts?

The hearts of the people are scattered, and the team is not easy to lead. Nothing more than that.

Fortunately, Takahashi is not really stunned, if he just entered the company, he shouted loudly to let the company have a new atmosphere, and the old employees are enemies, in the end it is self-evident who will get out of the way first.

Be cautious in words and deeds, this is the quality that a newcomer to the workplace should have. Most of the seemingly unreasonable phenomena will be justified if you understand them a little.

Takahashi took back the paper in front of Kudo's eyes, and what he wrote on the paper was a gambling agreement.

This VAM is very different from the general VAM where the higher the sales volume, the more the share, and it is a punitive VAM agreement.

In other words, the less the sales of this version of the red and white machine "Gold Diggers" produced by Hudson, the more fines there will be.

Takahashi wrote this because he had to take care of the face of the founding siblings of Broadbond as well as money.

The game didn't sell well, which means that we redid the problem, because we redid it damaged the quality of the game, paid more fines, and at the same time satisfied the money, we also bowed to the Broadbond company, allowing them to gain face.

And the game sells well, although the penalty is less, but the profit is also more. While making more money, it also proved the correctness of the rework, and it did not damage the face of Broadbond.

Whether it sells more or sells less, this proposal is beneficial and harmless to Broadbond, and full of sincerity.

You know, the threshold for not paying this fine is one million copies.

You know, all versions of "Gold Digger" are not sold to this number now. Such a figure in itself is already very satisfying to Broadbond's face.

It's normal for Hiroshi Kudo to look at these words on the paper in a daze.

Although they were the first third parties of the red and white machines, although they made a lot of money on the arcade machines. However, until now, none of their games have sold a million copies.

Such sales figures are a myth for Hudson himself, and for Hiroshi Kudo himself, it is also an astronomical number that has to be counted for a long time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that Takahashi is crazy.

Of course, there are two more inconspicuous proposals in this proposal.

First, while fulfilling this agreement, Hudson will have the rights to develop the sequel to "Gold Digger" on the red and white machine.

Second, when the sales volume reaches more than one million copies, the share decreases with the ladder.

Of course, the two cores of the whole proposal are the punitive agreement and the sale of one million copies.

This proposal is an imaginative contract even in the United States, where capitalism is most advanced.

After all, no one is a masochist who likes to sell less and give more money to others.

However, the identity of this masochist is more appropriate if it is placed on the person himself.

In 1985, most people said that in front of white people, they were contradictory to inferiority and arrogance at the same time.

Inferior because of history, arrogant because of money, such a group that needs to be identified with will not be surprising if anything happens.

When Takahashi translates words on paper into English and makes it more complete. A fax came from Broadbond.

This is the reply fax of the fax just now, and the content is much the same as the first one, which is still condemnation and condemnation, either revision and redo, or cancellation of cooperation.

Takahashi looked at the fax with fierce words, but he was a little relieved.

The other party's willingness to fax back shows that there is still room for communication. Just like a couple, when the quarrel is the worst, it is not to be noisy on the phone, but to not answer each other's phones and refuse to communicate.

What Takahashi fears the most is that the friends on this side know about the gap between Hudson and Broadbond, and use this gap to seek the adaptation rights of the red and white version of "Gold Diggers".

Takahashi is not afraid of trouble, but he is afraid of unplanned trouble. Unplanned troubles are always more difficult to deal with than planned.

He didn't want to dream a lot at night, and he didn't want to have an accident after a long time, so he checked that the information he had written was correct, and sent it out on a fax machine.

The signal pulse crossed the ocean to reach the United States, and I don't know what kind of reaction the group of Yankees will have when they see the words written by Takahashi.

Takahashi had done his best, but he wasn't sure things would go as he envisioned. After all, all it takes is a butterfly flapping its wings to change everything during the whole process.

Could it be that Takahashi wants to find another butterfly to flap its wings to offset the impact of the first wing?

Takahashi is not an omnipotent god, and if he has the ability, why would he starve for months before finding a chance to enter Hudson.

The wait was long and torturous, and the silence seemed indescribable.

The three people in the office of the games department, the pressure has multiplied over time.

Takahashi's proposal is not bold, it cannot be said that it is not crazy, but is such a sword-fringing proposal really useful? No one will get an answer until they receive a reply.

In addition to the pounding of the heartbeat, there was also a knocking sound in the corridor.

The sweaty game minister broke down the door, he looked at the three people in the game department, and asked in a panic, "How is it?"

"It's still being processed. Takahashi said calmly.

"What to deal with, Shin'ichi, Shin'ichi Nakamoto, what I said was right, I said that the game should not be changed at all, you can see what is happening now!" the minister said angrily.

"You also voted yes for the rework. Shin'ichi Nakamoto, who was already more relaxed, replied with a dark face.

"You guys!" the minister asked with a hard flick of his arm, and then asked urgently, "how did you reply?"

"There is one on the table. Takahashi said.

The minister hurriedly grabbed the paper on the table, his hands were shaking in a hurry, looking at the black letters on the white paper, his hands became more and more funny, and he said hysterically, "One million sales! Three million dollars in fines! What do you think? Who wrote this?"

"Me. Takahashi replied.

"You?" the minister pointed to Takahashi's nose, "just you, a Chinese guy, have you ever seen a million game cartridges stacked together, how many are there, can you make three million dollars in your life?"

When the minister raised his hand and wanted to slap Takahashi, the sound of the fax machine rang.
