Chapter Fifty-Eight: "Saving the Country with a Curve"

In the following days, Cameron really kept his word, personally went out, and accompanied Fang Mingyuan and others to Disneyland in Tokyo for two days, and he paid for the whole process. He is also full of praise for Tokyo Disneyland.

At the invitation of Uda Guangli, Fang Mingyuan and he also attended the family banquet held by Uda Zhong, and they were in the limelight at the banquet. When he revealed-revealed that the movie budget of "Terminator 2" was likely to exceed $80 million, the audience was silent for a while. You know, in Japan, except for large group companies like Toyota and Sony, if a company can make an annual profit of more than 100 million US dollars, it is quite a good achievement, and Cameron actually wants to spend so much money to make a movie, how can these Japanese not be dumbfounded?

Uda Zhong is also one of these people, for Cameron's courage, he also admires the people who can make a lot of money, although they are talents, but people like Cameron who dare to spend money are also talents!

At this point, Uda Zhong naturally no longer doubted what Fang Mingyuan said, but it made Fang Mingyuan's words about Cameron in advance useless.

And he also heard from Uda Mitsuri that there was cooperation between Cameron and Fang Mingyuan, this time Cameron came to Japan, and he had important matters to discuss with Fang Mingyuan, and he himself confirmed that the relationship between Cameron and Fang Mingyuan was quite good. When he determined that Fang Mingyuan had a relationship with the Americans, Uda Zhong completely gave up the idea of threatening Fang Mingyuan with the Ryukyu Islands If the Japanese are wolves, then the Americans are tigers and lions, Cameron is also a well-known director in Hollywood, USA, has a wide range of contacts, and has acquaintances from all walks of life in the United States, so it is purely unwise to provoke him for such a trivial matter. Moreover, Sega Co., Ltd. is not without the American market, and he will make a stumbling block for Sega in the United States, and he will not be asking for trouble.

Time passed, and in a blink of an eye, Fang Mingyuan had come to Japan for the fifth day, and tomorrow was the day he agreed to meet and negotiate with Nintendo. These days, the personnel of Nintendo and Sega Co., Ltd. have been visiting and lobbying him, but Fang Mingyuan is not leaking, but he does not show his attitude. The executives of Nintendo and Sega Co., Ltd. were so broken that they were not afraid that he would open his mouth, but that he would not open his mouth! It doesn't matter if the lion opens his mouth, everyone can talk slowly, you come and go, and finally find a result that is acceptable to both parties. But Fang Mingyuan didn't speak, which made them not even know where to start.

So when Fang Mingyuan invited Uda Zhong to come on the evening of the fourth day, Yu Tian Zhong's mood was not to mention how happy he was, until Zuihou, or did Fang Mingyuan spit out first?

"Mr. Uda-Naka, I think you and I have a full understanding of the last meeting these days. So this time, I won't make any detours, everyone gets straight to the point. Mr. Uda, I hope that I will be able to license "Bubble Dragon" and "Zuma" to Sega Co., Ltd. in an exclusive way - sex - on home consoles, and I hope that GameStation will officially join the Sega Co., Ltd. camp. For this reason, your company is willing to grant me the right to produce and assemble MD in Huaxia in addition to paying to our company, right? "The tea has just been served, and Yu Tian Zhong's ass is not yet hot, and Fang Mingyuan has already said straightforwardly.

"That's basically the case, but the timing of the grant, as well as the cost of the patent, need to be further discussed." Uda Zhong nodded.

"After a few days of consideration, I now give your company an official reply." Fang Mingyuan's words stunned Utian Zhong, and then hurriedly took out the pen and notepad.

"GameStation can join Sega, but I have two conditions!"

Yu Tian Zhong couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said continuously: "Fang Jun, please speak." ”

"First of all, Mr. Yu Suzuki, who used to be a member of your company, is a game producer that I admire, and I think that only he can perfectly make my game corner book into a game, so I hope that your company can reabsorb him back."

In Japan, many large game companies have so-called "aces", who are not only the trademarks of the company, but also the games or game hardware produced by the company. For example, when it comes to Nintendo, you can't help but think of Shigeru Miyamoto, and it's hard to imagine what Nintendo would be like without Master Shigeru Miyamoto. Then when it comes to Sega, another famous Japanese game company, the first name that may come to many people's minds is: Suzuki Yusega's top game producer. His dedication to software jishu, his dedication to system balance, his dedication to the impact of games, and his dedication to virtual reality have allowed Yu Suzuki to create countless game classics. For example, the "VR Warrior" series, the VR SWAT series, and the Shenmue series are all part of this. But in 88, Yu Suzuki and some of his colleagues left Sega to set up their own business, according to the information obtained by Fang Mingyuan, his choice was not good.

Since Fang Mingyuan plans to make "VR Warrior" developed by Sega's own game production department, the presence of Yu Suzuki is indispensable.

Uda Zhong thought for a moment, the departure of Yu Suzuki, who was extremely talented in arcade game production, was also a loss for Sega Corporation itself, and it was not a shame to take the initiative to recruit him back. "There is no problem, I can immediately send someone to contact him and invite him back to the company."

"Second, I don't just want MD to authorize production in Huaxia, I want to personally take a stake in Sega Co., Ltd., and the shares will ensure that I have a seat on the board of directors of the company!" Fang Mingyuan continued.

"Fang Jun, I'm afraid we won't be able to do this request of yours!" Uda Zhong, who was stunned, said with an embarrassed face after a long time. This Fang Mingyuan's appetite is inevitably too big, not only does he want MD's production authorization, but he actually wants to participate in Sega Co., Ltd., and he wants to enter the board of directors! How is this possible!

"What can't Weishenme do?" Fang Mingyuan relaxed and stretched his body and leaned back on the sofa.

"In Japan, there is no large, no, let alone large, even medium-sized enterprises have no capital from the Chinese mainland, if Sega accepts Fang Jun's investment and allows you to enter the board of directors, tomorrow Sega will face a serious stock market and public relations crisis! And Nintendo will never let go of this opportunity to fall into the ground. Utian Zhong spread his hands and said, "I think this situation, Fang Jun doesn't want to see it, right?" ”

Fang Mingyuan knew that Uda Zhong's remarks were not untrue, and in Japan, so far, only Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macao have invested in some companies, and most of them are small companies involved in the service industry or business. For a large-scale high-tech company like Sega Corporation, the Japanese are still extremely wary of the entry of foreign capital. But who in the company cares about Sega's opinion on home game consoles without acquiring shares in Sega and having at least one seat on the board? Even if he makes money quickly, he can't let go of more opportunities and not grasp them, but instead compete with Sega Corporation, a broken ship that is destined to run ashore in the future, right?

"I don't care what outsiders think of this, I just want to know, after removing all external factors, can the board of directors of your company agree to my condition?" Fang Mingyuan asked bluntly. Uda Zhong wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, Fang Mingyuan's step-by-step-forced-attitude made him a little overwhelmed.

"Fang Jun, weishenme, you must take a stake in our company?" Uda Zhong couldn't help but ask. No matter how delicious the eggs are, you don't necessarily have to buy the chicken that lays the eggs.

Fang Mingyuan sighed slightly: "Mr. Uda, in fact, in the final analysis, I am not at ease with your company's home game console design and manufacturing department, or is that sentence, if your company does not work the design and manufacture of new home game consoles, then the Sega series products will eventually have the fate of withdrawing from the home game console market." If I can't change that, then I can't bet the fate of myself and your company on yours. ”

"Listening to Fang Jun's meaning, as long as we in Sega Co., Ltd. agree to your condition, can it be said that you can achieve your goal without harming us?" Uda Zhong didn't want to get entangled with him about the future prospects of Sega Corporation, so he asked directly.

"I remember it was the American Jew David. Lawson officially established SEGA Sega Corporation in Japan. Before founding SEGA, his company was called ServiceGamepany, and it was a company that specialized in making pinball tables. Later, Japanese entrepreneur Hayao Nakayama and other Japanese investors bought SEGA's Japanese assets for 38 million. Hayao Nakayama has since become the president of SEGA Corporation. Rosen became the head of the U.S. subsidiary. Isn't that so? Fang Mingyuan smiled.

"Not bad!" Uda Nakashi nodded, as the second largest shareholder of Sega Corporation, he naturally has a clear understanding of the company's history. But what does Fang Mingyuan mean by mentioning this?

"So since the Americans sold it to you, and now the Americans want to take another stake, I don't think the Japanese-government-Japanese-Japanese-Japanese can say anything against it, right?" Fang Mingyuan smiled confidently.

"Americans? And what does this have to do with the Americans? Uda Zhong couldn't help but feel a little strange.

"If I ask James. Director Cameron came out to inject capital into your company in exchange for the corresponding shares, do you think there will be strong opposition in Japan? Of course, I understand that Nintendo is definitely against it! ”
