For now, though, they're on the same side – whoever is right and who's wrong wants to keep the topic hot.

If you want to heat up, you naturally need something offensive to use as a condiment.

So, Sean. Jerome temporarily suppressed the thoughts in his heart, cleared his throat, and continued to ask: "So Mr. Li, do you know that since you showed the simulator at the press conference, it has had a very bad impact on Nintendo's new products, especially among the people who are ready to buy home game consoles, I learned that many people who pre-ordered their game consoles in New York have gone to unsubscribe, isn't this a loss to them?" ”

"Huh."

Jester hears Sean. Jerome laughed disdainfully twice before he spoke.

"Mr. Jerome, I didn't subjectively add anything else in the previous demo, but simply made a comparison to prove that FC is an outdated console, which is an objective reality, and you are a well-known journalist, you must also know that this one has been changed by Nintendo's shape and name, and a few insincere peripherals have been added at random. It was brought to our country as a new product to sell and cheat money, and there is no difference between the FC game console they released in Japan a year and a half ago, but even so, their head of North America is still facing the media and many players brazenly belittled our new machine, which in my eyes, is not only a fraud to players, but also a naked provocation! Personally, I can't tolerate it. ”

Jester's tone was indignant, but the sophisticated Sean. Jerome could still see a hidden smug in his eyes, and Jester's answer continued.

"You know, I don't care who these home consoles are more powerful or anything like that, I don't think it's pointless to compare these, a game company should focus on making fun games, only if your game is good, players who like your game will buy your game console, because in my eyes, game consoles are just appendages to games, and without games, they are just some useless things. But I must not allow others to laugh at the R&D team that has worked hard for our product for half a year with an outdated product, which is to laugh at our American people! ”

Hearing Jester's seemingly impassioned, but actually extremely insincere words, Sean. Jerome was eager to ask, did you type a draft before? How can you say that this black-and-white reversal is so eloquent?

Then, as if he had opened the conversation, Jester was still unfinished, and he didn't have the slightest intention of stopping, and his tone even carried a hint of concern.

"Mr. Jerome, I think the revival of video games is just around the corner, and the impact that video games have reached must have been heard of, when Atari was at its peak, every third American would have an Atari console, more than thirty percent of Americans have played Atari games, and it can even be said that young people like me are the generation that grew up under the Atari consoles, and I sometimes wake up in my dreams, and I am thinking, if a Japanese company is allowed to counterattack the United States in video games, If we do what Atari did, or even surpass Atari, do we want our younger generation to grow up surrounded by the Japanese game of zuò? In the future, we will not only use Japanese cars, but also play Japanese games, will we watch Japanese movies in the future? For an age group that has grown up in the subtle influence of Japanese culture, to be honest, I feel terrible when I think about it. ”

"I don't think I'm worried about the fact that it's just Japan's manufacturing industry that is encroaching on our market and taking away our profits, because I know that with our national strength, we will always regain what we have lost, but what about culture? The cultural invasion is irreversible, it is a generational thing, and it seems to me that it is something that worries us more than the tank clusters of the USSR! ”

Jester said this very seriously, but Jerome was extremely moved when he heard it in his ears, his eyes lit up, and he knew how to write his report this time.

The next day.

A conference room rented by Nintendo in a five-star hotel in Las Vegas.

On the chairs in the conference room, the middle-level leaders of Nintendo's North American branch are all sitting in danger, most of them are from Japan, before leaving, they all have great ambitions, and want to take advantage of the vacuum period of American video games to make a lot of money, but they didn't expect that their careers have not officially started, and they will be smashed on the head by future opponents.

"Yaga!"

Minoru Arakawa slammed the two newspapers in his hand on the table, he walked back and forth angrily, and his mouth couldn't stop cursing the iconic Japanese national curse, this was the second time in the past few days that his love affair had gotten out of control.

The two newspapers he still has on the table are two big newspapers, one is the Washington Post, and the two pictures are juxtaposed, and there is an article on it, the photos are the photos of their Nintendo and Mars Entertainment exhibits at the CES show, because both of them held a product launch event the day before the show opened, and they are direct competitors, so this comparison is also particularly meaningful.

The photo above is the exhibition area of Mars Entertainment, in their trial area, it is almost overcrowded, there are no less than ten people lined up behind each machine, several of them are the most popular, the most popular among players, and even the queue is dozens of meters long, and there is also a note on the side of this photo, because there are too many people in line, which also caused dissatisfaction among some other exhibitors, because there are too many queues, and the people in line occupy the space that originally belonged to them.

These merchants banded together to find the organizer of the CES show, and the organizer came forward to negotiate with Mars Entertainment, and after expanding the booth area of Mars Entertainment by one-half, Mars Entertainment agreed to let these players queuing up in their own exhibition area.

And this photo of the Nintendo exhibition area...... Minoru Arakawa felt the urge to curse every time he saw this photo from the Washington Post.

Although the number of people in their booth is far less than that of Mars Entertainment, you don't need to have a photo of the show when it just opened and there were no large number of visitors.

In this photo, there are only two visitors in Nintendo's huge exhibition area trying out their biggest selling point this time - light gun peripherals, and several Nintendo staff in the booth in the camera are a little bored laughing and chatting with each other, which highlights the quietness of the booth.

The comparison of these two photos with ulterior motives had already given Arakawa some headaches, but the Los Angeles Times report made him tremble after reading it.

The author of this article is the famous ABC correspondent Sean. Jerome, who is also a columnist for the Los Angeles Times, and this time because of the uproar over Nintendo's lawsuit against Mars Entertainment for infringement, he was invited to get Jester's only media interview after this incident, so the Los Angeles Times also asked him for such an article.

If it were other drafts, Minoru Arakawa might not care, and now all kinds of drafts for this incident are emerging in an endless stream, and it is not bad like this, but the arguments of this manuscript are too ulterior motives and sensational.

"This is more worrying to us than the Soviet army"......

After watching Shaun. After Jerome's column, Arakawa realized that it was Jester, who had put himself in this situation several times. Lee, he was suddenly a little angry, but helpless, which is why he was going to hold a meeting early this morning, and things had reached the point of burning his eyebrows, because in the Los Angeles Times, Sean. After Jerome's draft, it caused a very big response, especially the memory that had been beaten by Japanese manufacturers and people in the automobile and other industries have also jumped out to add fuel and vinegar to the present.

At the behest of some people with ulterior motives, a California congressman made it clear in an interview this morning that he hoped that the federal government would increase tariffs on cultural products, and he did not want to see the United States lose the cultural market after losing the manufacturing market, and he absolutely did not want to see his children grow up by reading Japanese comics, playing Japanese games, and accepting Japanese culture.

And this view of his is also supported by many Americans.

Minoru Arakawa looked around at the people present, and his sharp gaze swept over the faces of these people in turn, and these elites, who were at least the middle level and above of Nintendo's branch of the Americas, couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to look at Minoru Arakawa.

They discussed it for two hours, but they didn't even think of a feasible solution.

Facing this scene, Arakawa Minoru suddenly had a feeling that he couldn't use it, Jester's series of combination punches were obviously prepared, and they were ruthless and vicious, if he came openly, whether it was compared to the quality of the game, or compared to the sales price, then he would not be afraid at all, but what he didn't expect was that Jester's methods would be so inferior, and even successfully provoked the Americans to be dissatisfied with the Japanese manufacturing industry's encroachment on the market.

The most important thing is that this is the United States, for Nintendo, this is their away game, the time, the place, the people, they don't have it.

"Too passive."

Minoru Arakawa knew that he had to deal with it, otherwise, this time the North American strategy might really be defeated by Jester and his Mars Entertainment without a fight. RS
