"What! How is this possible! ”

With a "bang", there was a muffled sound from the president's office on the top floor of the Nintendo headquarters building, and Yamauchi slapped the table and roared into the phone: "Are you investigating wrong, how can there be such a ...... in this kind of market now?"

Yamauchi Pu feels that he is very angry now, N64 console has become a "presence fleet" under the suppression of DreamBox128 and PS2 in turn, the price has dropped to the freezing point, and the matching game cartridge is also on sale at a loss, but unfortunately there is no improvement in sight.

Finally, NGC's debut game is nearing completion, and the planned release date is not far away, but another "Halo" has been released, and it has sold more than 1 million units in one day. Yamauchi Pu still remembers that "Resident Evil 2" once set a sales myth of 2 million units on the first day, and then pushed the PS game console to a more glorious new world, compared to the 1 million units of "Halo", although there is a gap, but it is also a new myth today, at least recently Yamauchi Pu has not seen any game in his house to reach this point, he believes that Kutaragi Ken will have the same opinion.

Yamauchi Pu moved his palm, which was sore from excessive excitement, and thought to himself, "It seems that I have to go to Miyamoto-kun for a walk." Thinking of this, he got up and went to the outer room, gave a few words to his secretary Mayu Asami, and then went straight to Shigeru Miyamoto's intelligence development headquarters.

The Intelligence Development Headquarters is located on the seventh floor of the Nintendo Headquarters Building, and at the beginning, Shigeru Miyamoto only led five or six people to occupy a small office, and what he did could only be regarded as simple, ordinary development work, and even the name of the department was a very ordinary fourth development department, and at that time, Nintendo's most prosperous was still known as Master Shigeru Miyamoto Gunpei. Later, with the strong support of Yamauchi, the Fourth Development Department gradually grew and changed its name to the current Information Development Headquarters, which has now become a huge department that occupies two-thirds of the entire seventh floor.

Perhaps because of the late platform change, the intelligence development headquarters, which has always been invincible, ran into a lot of trouble, and the development of the signature game internally codenamed "Mario 128" was so slow that Yamauchi had to pin his hopes for the first game release on Hideki Konno and his "Louie's Haunted House".

It's been almost ten days since he last came to the Intelligence Development Headquarters, and it's getting closer and closer to the release date planned by NGC, Yamauchi is a very patient person, but the aggressive DreamBox 128 and PS2, coupled with the increasingly sinister market environment, forced him to do a lot of things that he didn't want to do, but he couldn't do otherwise.

After these years of development, Nintendo has basically broken away from the constraints of the family business, and has become a joint-stock listed company closer to the modern enterprise system, while getting more development funds, Yamauchi Pu has also lost absolute control of Nintendo, the reason why he can still control Nintendo over the years, with most of the prestige accumulated before, and the glory that has been brought to Nintendo. However, if Yamauchi Pu can't continue to lead Nintendo to create brilliance, it may soon cause questions from shareholders, and it may even lose the chairman's position, after all, shareholders don't care about an old man's dream at this time, and it is better to care about whether the company can continue to make money.

While thinking about the helplessness in his heart, Yamauchi Pu stretched out his hand and gently pushed open the door of the Intelligence Development Headquarters, and his mood suddenly became nervous......

……

Quiet, very quiet.

The Sega headquarters building in Tokyo has become unusually quiet, not only the secretaries who like to chat in the bathroom and telephone lines on weekdays have become unusually quiet, but even the people walking in the corridors of the building have become inexplicably cautious, and the source of all this comes from the same quiet conference room.

In the quiet conference room, there was almost no sound except for the slight sound of paper coming from Okawa Ko's hand papers, as if everyone in the entire conference room was the same, but in fact, not only the vice president Hideki Sato was present, but even Tetsu Kayama, who had been not on the right path with him, and even some supporters of the two were also sitting quietly at the conference table.

Okawa Gong's face was ugly, he didn't have much energy to support himself under the torture of repeated illnesses, but today it was more because of the bad news in the document in his hand. After taking a long breath of oxygen, a slight blood color appeared on Dachuan Gong's pale face, and he exhaled hard and said, "That's the situation, what do you think?" ”

The situation is very bad, it can even be said to be very bad, Okawa doesn't understand why Sega is like this now, the price reduction and sales of the Dreamcast console are not as expected, the Dreamcast console network plan is slow, the sales of game software are sluggish, and there are inventory losses, severance pay spent when laying off employees, etc., all kinds of disadvantages cost Sega too much money, not only the 50 billion yen he used to stabilize the company a few months ago was spent. In addition, the company's deficit has increased from 23.6 billion yen to 58.3 billion yen, and Sega is once again on the edge of a cliff.

Originally, the documents in Okawa's hands still had the latest sales data of popular games such as "Ghost Warrior", "Heartbeat Memories 3" and "Halo" on the DreamBox128 platform, but he can't care about what others are doing now, and now Sega doesn't need what others are doing, and the huge deficit of more than 50 billion yen alone is enough to crush Sega to pieces. If it were someone else, maybe the first 50 billion yen would not have been taken out, but Okawa Ko is different, in his eyes, Sega is a unique place where his dreams are pinned, so he is not willing to let Sega end hastily, a few months ago, and it is the same now.

Feeling the expectant gaze of Okawa Gong, everyone lowered their heads in shame, during these months, many people thought that their choice was right, for this reason there were fights from time to time under the calm water, but the fights came and went, and today in front of everyone is a larger fiscal deficit and a more sinister market environment, recalling the past, even the persistent Sato Hideki has a little remorse.

There was no response to his question, Okawa Gong was not angry, he knew what the situation was now, so he smiled generously, pointed to the side with his hand, and said: "It just so happens that Kuchiki-kun is here, I have decided, I will be responsible for the company's financial deficit this time!" ”

Everyone looked at Okawa and the lawyer next to him, Kuchigi Hakuya, a thought of disbelief flashed through their minds, and surprised expressions slowly appeared on their faces, especially Hideki Sato and Tetsu Kayama, who knew where Sega's last 50 billion yen came from.

"Kuchimu-kun, you can help me prepare a contract." Okawa took a long breath of oxygen and continued, "I'm going to come up with another 85 billion yen to help the company get through the current crisis." ”

"President!" There was a sudden exclamation in the conference room, and although there was a little psychological preparation, the huge figure of "85 billion yen" in Okawa's mouth still surprised everyone. After the surprise, everyone felt even more ashamed, after working hard for so long, it didn't bring much change to Sega, but a seriously ill old man took out his personal property again and again to subsidize the company, and the same was true for Hideki Sato and Tetsu Kayama, who recalled all kinds of unpleasantness during this period of fighting for power, and all kinds of behaviors during this period were particularly dirty against the backdrop of Okawa Gong's behavior.

"Mr. Okawa, are you really sure? If it's 85 billion yen, you won't have much money left! "As an old relationship for many years, Kuchigi Hakuya knows the situation of Okawa Gong very well, and the 50 billion yen last time, plus the 85 billion yen this time, may be less than 10 billion yen that can be left to his descendants, so he must confirm it again.

"It's okay, just follow this number!" Okawa Gong solemnly confirmed, he was actually very helpless, but if he didn't make a move, maybe Sega would start a countdown to survival, so other things didn't matter to him.

A different atmosphere drifted in the conference room, looking at the pale old man's resolute expression, everyone's hearts used an impulse, all hoping that under the leadership of Okawa Gong, they could bring a new future to Sega, the previous estrangement caused by different opinions also disappeared at this time, and there was only one thought left in everyone's mind: "Follow Mr. Okawa!" ”

The Sega executives, who had been somewhat divided, began to unite again, and Sega seemed to be truly reborn......

Okawa didn't care about what would happen to "Halo" anymore, but Ken Kutaragi was so concerned about it that he became the first of several major game companies to learn about the sales of "Halo". The 150,000 copies of "Ghost Warrior" on the first day once stimulated Ken Kutaragi once, and the special edition of "Heartbeat Memories 3" followed by it came again, I originally thought that there would be no more than three, but who would have thought that "Halo" would simply come with 1 million sets on the first day, and this time he couldn't eat it anymore.

Due to inexplicable restrictions, Sony Computer Entertainment had to give up the game console market in North America and Europe, but Kutaragi Ken didn't plan to give up even the part of the game software, after all, more or less PS2 also sold millions of units, I thought that I could sell a little more, but who knew that such a strong "Halo" suddenly appeared, which disrupted his dream all of a sudden. Kutaragi Ken can figure out on his toes that with Halo to open the way, the better lineup of games on DreamBox 128 will definitely achieve quite good results, so the PS2 console's disadvantage will also increase.

Kutaragi Ken glanced at the shocking figures on the report again, sighed slightly and said, "I'm afraid the days to come will be even more difficult......
