Chapter 149: Sega's Ownership
The temperature in Tokyo in April is very pleasant, although Sato Hideki sitting in the Nissan car can't feel the warmth of the sun outside, but his mood is as bright as this weather, after waiting for a long time, today is finally the time to unveil the Gu, and the news collected during this time is very beneficial to him, coupled with the support of Sony Computer Entertainment, he believes that this time the throne of the president of Sega has been secured.
Gradually, the Sega headquarters building appeared not far ahead, Hideki Sato tapped the steering wheel, turned into the road to the underground parking lot, turned a few times, he parked the car in his exclusive parking space, and then got out of the car, and walked briskly to the elevator dedicated to the company's upper floors.
Walking into the elevator, Hideki Sato pressed the button on the floor where his office was located, and then habitually came to the railing, ready to look at the scenery outside the glass as the elevator rose. The elevator door was slowly closing, and suddenly the elevator panel flashed, and the elevator door opened again, and Hideki Sato turned around to look at it, but he didn't expect that it was Kayama Tetsu who appeared in front of him.
Hideki Sato sniffled slightly, a smile habitually appeared on his face, although he was not sincere at all, but he still leaned to the side, pretending to be generous. If it was before, he wouldn't have shown kindness to Xiangshan Zhe, even if it was just pretending, but today is different, he doesn't need to show in this regard with the victory in his hands, and even he has a vague feeling of regret for Xiangshan Zhe.
The look on Kayama Tetsu's face changed a few times, but he didn't move a little under his feet, as if he didn't mean to enter the elevator at all, the air seemed to solidify all of a sudden, and the elevator door that no one operated began to slowly close again, Hideki Sato looked at the disappearing figure outside the door, and snorted softly: "Sure enough, it's still a useless guy!"
The elevator shook slightly, and began to rise rapidly, and Hideki Sato turned around to hold on to the railing, and his eyes looked out, as if Tokyo bathed in the morning sun was coated with a faint layer of gold. "Ding~", the elevator stopped with a slight shock, the elevator doors slowly slid open to both sides, and Hideki Sato stepped out of the elevator and came to the corridor outside.
"President Sato, good morning!" "Hideki Sato, the head of the Corporate Development Department, who happened to be passing by, saw Hideki Sato coming out of the elevator, and hurriedly greeted him enthusiastically.
"Nakamura-kun, you're wrong. Hideki Sato waved his hand and corrected, "It should be the vice president." ”
"President Sato, you're too modest, isn't this just right away!" said Nakamura with a smile on his face.
"What is this......" Hideki Sato continued to be modest, but his heart was already happy, and after staying up for so long, he could finally remove the word "vice" in front of "president".
After greeting Nakamura for a while, Hideki Sato raised his wrist and looked at his watch, it was almost an hour before the scheduled nine o'clock in the morning, and there was still a lot of time to waste, he smiled and said goodbye to Nakamura, and then walked to his office, intending to check the latest information from the Internet.
“…… Chinese President Visits Six South American Countries ...... A number of cooperation agreements have been signed with the governments of the countries visited, covering a wide range of fields, including diplomacy, economy and trade, science and technology, education and culture......"
“…… The U.S. Federal Reserve once again announced a cut of 0.5 percentage points each for the federal funds rate and the discount rate...... This is the fourth consecutive rate cut by the Fed this year, and the total reduction has reached two percentage points......"
“…… Nintendo announced that the release of the Japanese version of NGC has been postponed by two months...... It is understood that it is likely to be related to the small number of start-up games......"
“…… Prime Minister Yoshiro Mori held a press conference to officially announce his resignation to the public......"
“…… Sony, Toshiba and IBM announced that they have reached a consensus to jointly develop a processor for the next generation of consoles, which is said to be 1,000 times more efficient than current mainstream consoles......"
Just when Hideki Sato clicked the mouse unhurriedly, while enjoying the special service of the secretary's lady, while browsing various news on the website, Tetsuya Kayama, who was a few steps behind him, stepped out of the elevator and appeared on another floor. Kayama Zhe looked left and right, there was no one in the corridor, so he walked down the aisle to the third office on the left, took out a piece of paper from his pocket, and pressed the digital disk on the door a few times according to the number on it, and with a soft "beep" sound, the door automatically opened a crack.
Kayama pushed open the door and walked in, the room was empty, he raised his wrist and looked at his watch, there were still twenty minutes before the appointed time. Kayama Tetsu exhaled softly, came to the sofa and sat down, he was a little nervous now, in fact, someone had already made a promise on the phone last night, but when he didn't see it with his own eyes, some things might not necessarily develop according to his expectations.
There were some exquisite Japanese refreshments on the coffee table in front of the sofa, but Kayama Tetsu was not in the mood to taste them, he didn't know how, he was actually a little nervous now, which was not common in the past, even when he first went to the Likulut Group. Time was beating minute by minute, and Kayama Tetsu felt as if there was a huge clock ticking in his mind, making him unable to calm down and think as usual.
I don't know how long it took, a slight noise caught the attention of Kayama Tetsu, he turned his head to look at the door where the sound came, just saw that the door was slowly being pushed open, a trace of joy appeared on his face, and he immediately stood up and looked towards the door, with a little expectation and apprehension in his heart......
8:57 a.m.......
Hideki Sato came to the door of the small conference room on the upper floor refreshed, tidied up his appearance a little, and then pushed the door and walked in. There were already several directors sitting at the conference table in the conference room, and Akihiro Aoyama, who represented Sony Computer Entertainment, also appeared here as agreed, Hideki Sato greeted the directors with a smile on his face, and then lost a look to Akihiro Aoyama, who was sitting in front of him, and then came to his seat and sat down, picked up the teacup in front of him, and drank it pretendedly.
After drinking two sips of tea, there was some movement in the direction of the door, Sato Hideki looked back, but he was surprised to find that it was Kayama Tetsu who came in, he was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the other party seemed to have the title of director, although it had been a long time since he came to the decision-making meeting, but he still had the qualifications to come. Looking at Tetsu Kayama's expression, Hideki Sato snorted coldly, turned his head and continued to compete with the teacup, so that he couldn't be entangled with this kind of guy who had no future.
8:59 a.m......
The direction of the door of the conference room turned again, Hideki Sato looked back, and found that it was CSK Chairman Yoshiji Fukushima, he hurriedly got up and prepared to greet him, but he didn't expect that there was someone next to Yoshiharu Fukushima, so he had to stop. Yoshiharu Fukushima walked into the conference room and greeted everyone as usual, not even the smile on his face made much difference, but the person walking side by side with him made Hideki Sato feel a little uneasy in his heart.
Yoshiharu Fukushima let the people next to him sit down on the right-hand side of the conference table, then cleared his throat and said to everyone in the conference room: "Everyone, let me introduce you first, this person next to me is Mr. Wu Sanshan, the general manager of the Japanese branch of Orient International Investment Bank. ”
Wu Sanshan sat on the chair and smiled at everyone: "Hello everyone, I am very happy to be here today to attend an important meeting of Sega. ”
As soon as Akihiro Aoyama heard that the person was from the Orient International Investment Bank, a feeling of inappropriateness immediately surged in his heart, but before he could take action, Yoshiharu Fukushima had already announced the start of today's meeting.
"Well," Fukushima Yoshiharu said in a slightly sad tone, "Mr. Okawa has passed away, but Sega can't do without a new leader, otherwise the next business will definitely be very problematic......
Everyone nodded in unison, the reason why I came here today is for this important thing, Sato Hideki also thought so in his heart, he nodded, leaned forward a little, nervously waiting for Fukushima Yoshiji's next words. Akihiro Aoyama didn't care what the future of Sega was, he just needed to confirm that Sega and Sony would come together, and now most of his attention was on the general manager of the Japanese branch of Orient International Investment Bank, trying to analyze more information from the other party's expression.
“…… During this time, the company was basically supported by Mr. Sato, especially when Mr. Okawa was seriously ill. Yoshiharu Fukushima's eyes fell on Hideki Sato, and he said with a smile on his face, "On behalf of CSK, I would like to thank Mr. Sato for his continued efforts. ”
Fukushima Yoshiji's words made Sato Hideki very useful, although he thought in his heart that he really deserved this kind of evaluation, but years of habit still made him pretend to be modest and said: "President Fukushima is serious, I just do my best, as an old man of Sega, this is what it should be." ”
Unexpectedly, Yoshiharu Fukushima changed his words at this time: "However, it is time for Sega to make some changes, so I recommend Tetsu Kayama to be the new president of Sega." ”
With a bang, as if there was a thunderbolt ringing in his ears, Hideki Sato couldn't help but stand up and exclaimed, "What!"
Aoyama Akihiro was also taken aback, and hurriedly slapped his eyes at Hideyoshi, the director of Sony, who had already defected to Sony, hoping that the other party would come forward to oppose it, after all, he was just an outsider, and it was impossible for something like this to pop out and make irresponsible remarks. Hideyoshi Tanaka nodded knowingly, stood up and said, "President Fukushima, Vice President Sato has made a lot of achievements during this time, and I think it may be more suitable to be the new president compared to Advisor Kayama." ”
Fukushima Yoshiji's face did not change in the slightest and said, "In this case, it just so happens that most of the members of the board of directors are here, so I propose that everyone vote on the spot." ”
"It's okay, it's a big deal, it's better to be cautious. Tanaka Hideyoshi glanced at Akihiro Aoyama, who was sitting precariously, and said confidently, "I agree to vote!"
The other directors looked at each other and nodded in agreement. As a cautious person, Akihiro Aoyama has considered all kinds of situations, and the people he has contacted are not limited to Hideki Sato and Hideyoshi Tanaka, so even if he wants to vote, he is confident that he will achieve his goal. But when the final voting results came out, Akihiro Aoyama was still taken aback, "7:1", deducting the old guy Yoshiharu Fukushima, that is to say, six directors on the scene voted for Tetsu Kayama, which was too unexpected for him.
"Vice President Sato has worked hard during this time, and I think I can arrange for him to be the president of the game company that is a joint venture between Sega and Sony......"
Hideki Sato can't hear what others are saying now, since the voting results just came out, he has been full of confusion, he doesn't know why things have turned out like this, obviously with the strong support of Sony Computer Entertainment, and even said to have been approved by Chairman Fukushima, but now Tetsu Kayama has become the new president of the company, as far as what he has done during this time, I believe that Tetsuichi Kayama will definitely not forget the "exchange of courtesies" when he comes to power, and his future may have come to naught from this moment.
A chill slowly rose from behind Akihiro Aoyama, if Tetsu Kayama came to power, it would probably be impossible for the other party to maintain close cooperation with Sony like Hideki Sato, and he wouldn't want to please President Kutaragi if he messed things up.
Fukushima Yoshiharu smiled at him as if he had suddenly discovered Aoyama Akihiro at this time and said, "Aoyama-kun, there is something I forgot to tell you. ”
"What's the matter?" asked Akihiro Aoyama, confused.
"Aren't you interested in Sony Computer Entertainment about Sega shares in CSK's hands?"
"Oh, yes, is CSK ready to transfer?" Akihiro Aoyama asked as if things had taken a turn for the better.
"Yes, we have signed a contract, and the Sega shares in the hands of CSK have been transferred to Orient International Investment Bank," Yoshiharu Fukushima said happily.
"What!" Akihiro Aoyama couldn't help but stand up, trembling and pointing with his finger, then snorted fiercely, turned around and walked away without looking back, he felt that he was playing with Sega, so that he was not interested in looking at Hideki Sato again when he left.
Hideki Sato, who was lost in his soul, seemed to have suddenly lost all his strength, and the whole person collapsed on the chair......
