Chapter 131: Sato on the left, Xiangshan on the right
Tetsu Kayama walked out of the vice president's office, and as the door behind him closed, he could no longer control his anger, and couldn't help but punch the wall hard, and his crooked fingers immediately turned red, but at the moment, he didn't seem to feel the pain in his hand at all, and all that was left in his mind was the bastard order that Sato Hideki had just given.
When Okawa announced the new personnel appointment more than a month ago, Kayama Tetsu had a brief loss, jumping from the game publishing company invested by the Likulut Group to Sega, Kayama Tetsu came with great ambitions, but unfortunately he had not had time to fully implement his idea, he had already lost the support of Okawa Ko, and even the two had a fierce quarrel at one point. Perhaps because he didn't want to see Kayama Zhe being too discouraged, Okawa made a special trip to relieve Kayama Zhe after he was discharged from the hospital.
"Kayama-kun, Sega is not really going to Sony, we are only temporarily backing down, and when the time comes, we will return to the old place, and you will be a good president......"
Tetsu Kayama still remembers how Okawa hinted and promised that day, according to Okawa Ko's statement, arranging Hideki Sato as vice president and leading the entire Sega company was to temporarily cooperate with Sony Computer Entertainment, but this cooperation was just a workaround to reduce the pressure on the company, as long as it survived this difficult period, Sega would definitely be able to fly high again in the future, and there would be no need to make peace with Sony Computer Entertainment at that time. Perhaps in order to give Kayama Tetsu greater confidence, Okawa Gong also mysteriously revealed the research and development plan of Sega's new console, which is said to surpass the performance of DreamBox128, PS2, and the unreleased NGC, and Sega will definitely get out of the predicament completely.
But who would have thought that more than a month later, the sudden change in the situation, Okawa Gong's originally controlled esophageal cancer suddenly spread, and had to be sent to the University of Tokyo Hospital again, after a detailed diagnosis by the doctor, the situation is very not optimistic, and Okawa Gong's future time can only be calculated by days. And at this time, Hideki Sato's attitude also quietly changed, when Okawa was still there, Sato Hideki's party still maintained a superficial politeness to Kayama Tetsu's department, but as soon as Okawa's condition deteriorated, Sato Hideki immediately turned his face and found many excuses to exile the people of Kayama Tetsuichi's family, if Kayama Tetsu didn't have the identity of a director, maybe he wouldn't even be able to keep himself.
Today, Hideki Sato, relying on his right as acting president, forcibly asked Tetsu Kayama to get rid of Bleem, and instead of helping it speed up the development of "Bleem!forDreamcast", he actually planned to sue Bleem for developing software on the Dreamcast console without the authorization of Sega.
"Bleem!forDreamcast" is a PS game emulator developed by Bleem company, after DreamBox128 and PS2 have announced compatibility with PS games, "Bleem!forDreamcast" has also become an important means for Sega to enhance its competitiveness, for which Kayama Tetsu also sent someone to secretly contact Bleem company, and sent some internal technical information about the Dreamcast console in the past, just hope" Bleem!forDreamcast" will be available sooner rather than later to bring a wealth of gaming software to Dreamcast consoles.
However, after Hideki Sato came to power, this kind of technical exchange was immediately stopped, and now he even has to turn the gun against Bleem, and Tetsu Kayama feels that even if he thinks about it on his knees, he will understand that Hideki Sato is doing this to flatter Sony Computer Entertainment.
"Bastard......" Tetsu Kayama slammed his fist against the wall again, and walked away angrily down the aisle......
……
Watching the door of the vice president's office slowly close, the corners of Hideki Sato's mouth slowly curled, in fact, going to Bleem Company's bad luck is just a trivial matter, just find a legal representative to do it, and he made a special trip to arrange for Tetsu Kayama to deal with it, naturally it will not be so simple.
"Kayama, if you don't want to do this, or if you can't do it well, then don't blame me for using the topic to play! If you do it well, then I can also ask President Kutaragi for a meritorious ......" Hideki Sato leaned back in his office chair, smug and imagined Kayama Tetsu's wonderful face.
Although he was not sitting in the president's room, Hideki Sato seemed to feel that the whole Sega was under his control. As the old man of Sega, Hideki Sato's heart is full of love for Sega, and he looks down on Kayama Tetsu who was parachuted in from elsewhere, so Kayama Tetsu supports it, and he has to oppose it, and Kayama Tetsu is optimistic about the cooperation with Nintendo, so he will do the opposite. Sometimes, Hideki Sato feels that he and Tetsu Kayama are a bit similar, both are the kind of people who will continue to do it if they have a certain goal, and if they are not in the same Sega company and are in two camps, maybe the two will have a chance to become friends.
In fact, at the beginning, Hideki Sato didn't expect to cooperate with Sony Computer Entertainment, but Tetsu Kayama was too smooth some time ago, and he had the support of Ko Okawa in everything, even including the big action of socializing several major game development components, but President Okawa's body was getting worse day by day, and he saw that Sega was about to become an outsider's bag. Hideki Sato hopes to reverse this situation, but he and his supporters have done a lot to no avail, and at this time, Ken Kutaragi appeared, and in desperation, Hideki Sato had to pin his hopes on Sony Computer Entertainment.
It didn't take long for Sega to announce its cooperation with Sony Computer Entertainment, and Tetsu Kayama, who was bent on cooperating with Nintendo, became a stumbling block to be moved, and later Hideki Sato became the vice president of Sega and began to lead the development of the entire Sega company under the authorization of Okawa Ko, all of which made him feel like he was in a dream. Of course, there is one person Hideki Sato who still wants to thank him, and that is the stubborn old man Yamauchi, if it weren't for that guy's disdain for the olive branch thrown by President Okawa, maybe all this change would not have happened.
Hideki Sato was not originally a very ambitious person, but perhaps it was power that made people change, and in just over a month, he was already very accustomed to the current "acting president" life, especially the feeling that he could be instructed by Kayama Tetsu's family, which made him feel very happy. Because in this matter, Kuda Rashiki Ken made a lot of efforts, and unconsciously Hideki Sato's psychological balance really slowly tilted in favor of Sony Computer Entertainment, instead of what he thought at the beginning, just using Sony Computer Entertainment to attack Tetsu Kayama and squeeze out outsiders in Sega.
In order to repay Kutaragi Ken's support, Hideki Sato has gradually become proactive from the beginning of reluctance, and has gradually become proactive now, such as what Kayama Tetsu was ordered to do this time, it is a double win, that is, there is an opportunity to help Sony Computer Entertainment, and there is a chance to hit Kayama Tetsu again.
While imagining Kayama's ugly face, Hideki Sato picked up the phone and dialed a familiar number to go out, and then said into the microphone: "Yamaki-kun, keep an eye on those guys in Kayama for me, and ......tell me immediately if there is any movement."
……
The angry Kayama Tetsu did not return to his office, and there are not many people on his side at the current Sega headquarters, and many guys who see the wind and rudder are wise to stand on Hideki Sato's side, even if some of them do not make a clear statement, but at least they will not come out to touch the mold when Hideki Sato is popular. Kayama Tetsu usually doesn't want to stay in the office, anyway, there is no one to talk to, and now he has encountered such a depressing thing, he simply walked out of the office building, came to a nearby tavern, called a few bottles of sake, and drank it slowly alone.
After drinking for a while, the anger in Kayama Tetsu's heart gradually calmed down, and his thinking became clear again, he suddenly discovered the murderous intention hidden in Hideki Sato's order, if he didn't follow Hideki Sato's orders, or didn't do this well, then the other party could use the topic to play, and it was even possible to kick him out of Sega, if he got this done, it would be no good for Sega, but it would be tantamount to a big favor to Hideki Sato, who had taken refuge in Sony Computer Entertainment.
"This bastard ......" Tetsu Kayama muttered indignantly as he slammed his glass down. He knew that no matter what he did, he would not be able to ease the relationship with Hideki Sato, which may have been predestined the day he came to Sega, but he could not accept that he had failed like this, especially such a failed failure.
Kayama Tetsulai Sega Company came to save the crisis, although there were some small setbacks with Okawa Ko, but the other party still made some promises after all, and he still had a certain opportunity to play, but after Sato Hideki came to power, the situation was different. Unlike Okawa Gong, Hideki Sato doesn't seem to be able to see Tetsu Kayama at all, and it seems that the two can't coexist anymore, especially after Hideki Sato made such a play today, Tetsu Kayama feels that the two have reached the point of "never dying".
Although Kayama Tetsu was very unwilling, he could not resist the order given by Hideki Sato, who was the "acting president". "Do you have to endure like this?" Kayama Tetsu sighed and shook his head helplessly. At this moment, Kayama Zhe remembered something, he took out his wallet, took out a business card from it, and put it in front of his eyes to look at it carefully.
This is a business card of Xu Yeming of the Electronic Entertainment Division of Oriental Industrial Group, Xiangshan Zhe still remembers the situation of getting this business card, it was a day more than a month ago, although Okawa Gong has not officially announced the personnel adjustment of Sega, but Xiangshan Zhe already knows that he has lost power, and he also came to this pub when he was depressed, and it was that time he met Xu Yeming.
"Mr. Xiangshan, I think you might need this business card. Xiangshan Zhe still remembered that after Xu Yeming chatted casually for a while, he took out a business card and handed it over, although he didn't say it explicitly, but that meant that Xiangshan Zhe understood that he shouldn't have accepted this business card, but he didn't know why, he took the business card and put it in the wallet, but he never thought about taking out this business card.
After carefully looking at Xu Yeming's business card, the expression on Xiangshan Zhe's face kept changing, and he seemed to be struggling in his heart, and finally he gritted his teeth and made up his mind, got up and went to a public phone booth outside the izaka, and called according to the number on the business card.
"Mr. Xu, hello! I'm Xiangshan, I haven't been in touch for a long time......" Xiangshan Zhe took the phone and said with a smile on his face, at this time his heart was no longer frustrated......
