Chapter 383: Winning KOF (Two Hundredth Day!)

Since he thought of using movies to promote newcomers, even the source of the movie, Kiyoshi Sakamoto has also thought about it.

Japan doesn't have much of anything, but the most comics, and the manga movie will also become an important member of the future Japanese film map.

There are also Japanese games, which are also an important source that can be adapted into movies.

Therefore, he set his sights on the various comics and games that have the possibility of adaptation.

And the first one that caught his eye was the childhood of his previous life - "The King of Fighters"!

That's why Kiyoshi Sakamoto will appear at SNK PLAYMORE.

And there is another reason why I took a fancy to "The King of Fighters" and was ready to be the first to win the adaptation rights of this game.

That is, Kiyoshi Sakamoto doesn't want this childhood game to be filmed as a piece of by a spicy chicken director...

In his previous life, he had seen the live-action movie of "The King of Fighters".

Wow, I can't wait to stick my eyes in my eyes...

completely photographed the classic game in his heart beyond recognition.

It was very distressing for him.

It's like a person who walks into the room full of joy, ready to have something happen to the person with the best person in his memory, but he finds that the beauty in that memory has been replaced by a miserable existence.

It's a feeling that I can't put into words.

At that time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi felt like a good memory in his brain, like a white canvas, which was painted into a horror film with a brush. . .

Therefore, reborn in a lifetime, he thought that while changing the future, by the way, he would prepare a movie for the newcomers of the "Sony Department" that could brush their faces.

。。。

SNK.

The president's room.

"Sure enough!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's purpose is already obvious.

Kawasaki Hideyoshi couldn't help but look carefully at the young man sitting in front of him again.

Young and promising, polite, and light-hearted...

A variety of different praise words were pasted on Kiyoshi Sakamoto by Kawasaki Hideyoshi.

This is not a simple entertainer!

"Sakamoto-kun, do you mean that you want to buy all the adaptation rights related to our KOF series?" said Hideyoshi Kawasaki, touching his chin.

"That's right. ”

"All!"

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's tone was unmistakably firm.

"In that case, then we at SNK are also open to business, and we can't sell all the adaptation rights of the KOF series. ”

"You know,This game originally had a large number of fans.,And the reputation accumulated over a long time.,For us SNK,It can be said to be a signboard.,We can't sell our own signboards.。。。 ”

"Did you say?"

Kawasaki Hideyoshi is worthy of being an old fox who led SNK's rebirth, and it was not so easy to convince him to sell the KOF series adaptation rights in his hands.

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto never thought about how to go to great lengths to convince SNK.

Moreover, from his words, Sakamoto Kiyoshi could hear that Kawasaki Hideyoshi was just waiting for the price to sell.

For a very businessman like Hideyoshi Kawasaki, Kiyoshi Sakamoto's approach is, regardless of thirty-seven twenty-one, hit you with money!

"President Kawasaki, make an offer. ”

"Uh... ”

Kiyoshi Sakamoto's direct negotiation method made Kawasaki Hideyoshi a little confused.

"This kid doesn't play cards according to the routine at all.,At this time,Shouldn't you talk about your love for this series first.,And value.,After rubbing it for a while.,And then slowly talk about the price? ”

Hideyoshi Kawasaki muttered inwardly.

However, Sakamoto Kiyoshi asked him to make a direct offer so loudly, doesn't it just express his attitude towards the adaptation rights of this KOF? !

Hideyoshi Kawasaki pondered for a moment before he spoke, "The value of KOF, I think Sakamoto-kun, you are also very clear, that... How's that number?"

Hideyoshi Kawasaki stretched out a hand and made a scissor-hand gesture to Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

"Two billion, OK, deal!"

However, after seeing his gesture, Kiyoshi Sakamoto thought that the price he offered was two billion yen.

This number, for him, is nothing at all.

Converted to dollars, that's just over a million dollars...

So, he immediately readily agreed, without giving Kawasaki Hideyoshi a chance to repent.

However, Kawasaki Hideyoshi was frightened by the price he proposed.

I'm obedient, two billion?!

Kawasaki Hideyoshi's scissor hand has not been withdrawn yet, at this time, his feeling is, is it pie in the sky today, why is it so accurate, smashed on his head?

"I just mean 200 million... ”

That's right, the price for Kawasaki Hideyoshi to make scissorhands is 200 million, not 2 billion in Sakamoto Kiyoshi's mouth.

When Kiyoshi Sakamoto said "two billion" from his mouth, there was only one thought in Kawasaki Hideyoshi's mind.

That is, "I'm making a lot of money?!!"

You must know that the market price of SNK's entire company today does not exceed 5 billion, which means that the money used by Kiyoshi Sakamoto to buy and sell the adaptation rights related to the KOF series can buy almost half of SNK!

How can this not make Kawasaki Hideyoshi feel confused.

After the confusion, there is naturally a huge sense of surprise, born from within.

"Uh, President Kawasaki, are you alright?"

Seeing that Hideyoshi Kawasaki still maintained his scissor hands, Kiyoshi Sakamoto was also a little puzzled.

"Oh, oh, it's okay, Sakamoto-kun, do you really plan to pay two billion to buy the relevant adaptation rights of the KOF series?"

Hideyoshi Kawasaki, who came back to his senses, asked very excitedly.

He stared at Kiyoshi Sakamoto with expectant eyes, as if he was afraid that everything Kiyoshi Sakamoto said was a joke.

However, he didn't know that two billion yen was a drop in the bucket for Kiyoshi Sakamoto, an invisible rich man whose net worth has reached billions of dollars.

Therefore, the answer he heard was undoubtedly true.

"Yes, two billion, isn't that the price you offered?" At this time, Sakamoto Kiyoshi seemed to feel that something was not quite right.

Kawasaki Hideyoshi was so excited.,Caused Sakamoto Kiyoshi to be a little skeptical.,Is he too happy to agree.。。。

However, Kiyoshi Sakamoto did not expect that the price he proposed was ten times different from the price Kawasaki Hideyoshi said!

The difference in this price was not until he talked to Kagawa on the phone by accident and was reminded by Kagawa that he knew the fact that he was expensive.

Now, he's just a little suspicious of Kawasaki's excitement.

"Yes, yes, then let's draw up a contract right away!"

"Uh... Okay"

Kawasaki Hideyoshi changed his unhurried attitude just now, and suddenly became resolute.

This made Kiyoshi Sakamoto feel inexplicable.

However, the smooth victory of KOF also made him forget these distractions.

Kawasaki Hideyoshi's actions were very fast, and with a phone call, he called the company's legal counsel who was resting at home.

And Sakamoto Kiyoshi is also on his side, in order to avoid long nights and dreams, Sakamoto Kiyoshi will bring all the lawyers directly, just thinking that this acquisition will be completed on the spot.

In just half an hour, Kiyoshi Sakamoto and Hideyoshi Kawasaki signed their own names on the transfer contract.

And from that moment on, the exclusive adaptation rights of KOF were tightly held in the hands of Kiyoshi Sakamoto.

。。。。。。

At the beginning of February, one day.

After winning the adaptation rights of the KOF, Kiyoshi Sakamoto rushed to Akihabara without stopping.

Sitting in a café near the Don Quixote building, Kiyoshi Sakamoto, wearing a mask and hat, pulled out a chair, sat down, and then said to the young man sitting opposite, with a slight complaint.

"Why did you choose such a place to meet... ”

I saw a young man, with a thin figure and slightly curly hair, with a bit of thief eyebrows.

However, between the eyebrows, it is quite similar to Sony's boss, Naoki Kitagawa.

Needless to say, the identity of this person is obvious.

It is Kiyoshi Sakamoto's best friend, Sony's prince, and Kenji Kitagawa who is now working as an assistant producer at AKS and AKB Theater.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I forgot, you're a big star... ”

In Kitagawa Kenji's words, there was no sense of apology, but a strong ridicule.

"you... ”

I haven't seen Kenji Kitagawa for a long time, but Sakamoto Kiyoshi still used this back and forth ridicule to narrow the distance between the two of them.

The two have known each other for a few years, and every year on various festivals, Kiyoshi Sakamoto will visit Beichuan's house, and also express his respect for Beichuan bosses.

And the Sakamoto family and the Kitagawa family, also because of the existence of Sakamoto Kiyoshi, have close contacts.

The relationship between Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the Kitagawa family is equivalent to the relationship between Kiyoshi Sakamoto and the family of Nanami Hashimoto.

It's not a family, but it's also a lot of movement.

As Sakamoto Kiyoshi grows older, as well as the rise of fame and status, the status gap between the two is slowly narrowing, and naturally, the relationship is better than before.

"Hot cocoa, huh?"

"Hmm. ”

Under the waiter's somewhat puzzled eyes, Kenji Kitagawa helped Sakamoto order a cup of hot cocoa.

"What's the matter, you specially called me out, not to invite me for a drink, right?" Sakamoto Kiyoshi did not remove the disguise on his body, but asked Kitagawa Kenji directly through the mask.

"Moreover, I also chose the meeting place near the Don Quixote building in Akihabara... ”

"I guess what you're about to tell me is about AKB. ”

After Sakamoto Kiyoshi finished talking about his speculation, Kitagawa Kenji, who was sitting opposite, also had his eyes flashing, looked at Sakamoto Kiyoshi with a little surprise, and said with a wry smile, "Sure enough, it's worthy of writing reasoning, logical thinking is really not covered... ”

"You mean, I guessed right?"

"That's right, I called you out this time just to discuss with you about AKB. ”

"I just learned about this soon... ”

"Oh?" Sakamoto Kiyoshi's expression under the mask was deeply playful, "What's the matter?"

"Kiyoshi, Sony may be giving up on AKB!"
