Chapter 590: Secret Meeting (1)
Iwatani was stunned for a long time before he smiled bitterly: "The first party's words, I'm afraid all the third parties can't sleep well......"
"Still sleeping?" Nakamura Masaya sighed: "Immediately gather all the directors of Namco, they can ignore it in the first place, but this Nintendo industry gathering is a Hongmen banquet for us......"
"Yes...... I know. On the other side, Square Enix, after the new president Yosuke Matsuda put down the phone, he lost his mind for a long time, and then gritted his teeth for a long time: "Call all the directors and ask them to ...... Discuss the issue of joining the Qin Dynasty lineup! ”
In Ko Nami, Shang Yuejing put down the phone, his face was already blue, and his Adam's apple moved involuntarily.
Other companies...... As long as the third party that has published the game in Genesis, at this moment, all received an unprecedentedly stern ultimatum from Shanghai!
There is no trace of luck, in front of the global industry, you can only choose one side!
They didn't know that on the 29th, the first party of the three high-ranking families just went to the banquet, but Nintendo, Sega, all called them, and now, it is an ultimatum from the Qin Dynasty.
The three first parties spoke out in unison, but in this Hongmen banquet, they had to choose one side to stand in line!
On the morning of the 29th, at ten o'clock, Heian-kyo, Hilton Hotel.
"Haven't arrived yet?" A staff member anxiously paced in the hall, his eyes looked out of the hotel from time to time, today, the lobby on the first and second floors of the hotel was all covered by Nintendo, where he will receive the other two bigwigs in the world's so-called "fastest-making sunrise industry".
"What's the hurry?" The staff next to him said that he was not in a hurry, his eyes were a little fluttering, and he said in a deep voice: "What time is it?" It's just ten o'clock, and it's good to be there before half past eleven. Wait! ”
Outside the hotel, a long red carpet spread out more than ten meters away, lined with lush flower baskets, there are no reporters, Yamauchi Puping retired all the people who wanted to interview, but there are also many people here.
Each of them was a member of the industry, mostly yellow, a few white, and even a few blacks, all looking at the street with excitement.
In addition to these people, there were also ten men in meticulous suits standing at the door.
All of them are section chiefs of Nintendo's major groups, and now all of them are serving as receptionists, which shows that Nintendo attaches great importance to this grand event.
"It's coming! Here it comes! At this moment, a small clerk ran over from the door and shouted excitedly: "Qin Huangchao just called, and there are still fifteen minutes to come!" ”
"Notify Your Excellency Iwata immediately!" A section chief stood up and shouted: "Everyone prepare, today is our big day for Nintendo, and we can't let other companies look down on us!" ”
"No notice." As soon as the words fell, a calm male voice rang out from around the corner: "I'm already here." ”
Iwata Satoshi, a little chubby with glasses on his face, walked out with his hair combed, and said lightly: "Don't be complacent, the companies that can be the first party in the industry are not idle people, we should learn from each other's strengths, remember the president's advice, today, we are the host, and we are receiving guests, not opponents." Whoever said something out of place, don't blame the president for being ruthless. ”
"Hey!" The ten section chiefs replied in unison.
At this time, in the room where the smell of nicotine was mixed with light but not pungent, but long-lasting high-end men's perfumes, countless people wearing high-end suits, snow-white shirts, shiny hair, sometimes smiling, sometimes stroking and laughing, and the mobile phones around them rang almost at the same time.
With a polite smile and saying goodbye to the person in front of him, the hot atmosphere seemed to get a moment of peace, and the next moment, these people said goodbye to the person in front of them apologetically, but hundreds of people flocked to the door in unison.
In the private room upstairs in the hall, a group of people, all of whom stood up silently, walked to the window together.
Kenzo Tsujimoto, Yasuhiro Fuku, and the third party who is still on Nintendo's side, are all on the side. Look intently at the intersection.
"The Qin Dynasty has arrived...... "The president of Enix, Yasuhiro Fukuwu pursed his lips, looked out the window, and said to Kenzo Tsujimoto beside him: "You say...... How many people would willingly brand it......"
"I don't know...... "Kenzo Tsuji twitched: "What they lack is accumulation, and there are things that can be built not only by a few masterpieces, but also by how many third parties will be on their side now...... Hardly. ”
"Look at it...... Fuwu Kangbo was silent for a long time, and looked out the window intently: "What kind of surprise can this company bring us at the first industry gathering."
......At the same time, a cup of coffee was slammed on the table, and the light brown coffee couldn't stand the vigorous splash, spilling it out on the outside holding the coffee cup and exposing the green tendons.
The owner of the hand has a thin face, but the usually gentle and elegant face can already be described as gloomy at the moment.
Stubby eyebrows, garlic nose, well-maintained skin, only some crow's feet can be vaguely seen in the corners of the eyes, and on the smooth chin, some white stubble can be vaguely seen, and the whole face is not angry and arrogant, as if it is brewing on the surface of a stormy lake.
"Your Excellency Hatano...... We don't have time to hesitate......" The man's personal secretary stood behind him, looked at his hand, and said solemnly and cautiously: "No one would have thought that this time the president would name ......"
Nobushi Hatano didn't speak, and the sunlight cast down from the floor-to-ceiling windows behind him, setting off his backlit figure like a pitch-black demon.
It took a long time for him to open his mouth, and his mouth was full of a strong smell of hell sulfur, and a sentence floated out from between his teeth: "Hesitation? Baga ...... What do you think I'm hesitating about? ”
He leaned back on the sofa, took a heavy breath, slowly exhaled turbid gas, his cheeks moved slightly, and a gritted tooth smile hung on the corner of his mouth: "I'm hesitating, which alliance to find......"
"Is it Sega, or is it the Qin Dynasty? Or...... More power? He seemed to be able to breathe fire from his mouth, and when he walked to the window, the warm sunlight made him feel a little uncomfortable, and he covered his eyes like a vampire, and squinted down at the hotel: "There are still ten minutes...... Chairman of the Qin Dynasty came to ...... I'd like to see how many people will stand firm on his side! ”
"I'm going to see...... Is he worth the heavy bet...... With Nintendo's president's bets! ”
Separated by a wall, on the other side, there was an extremely familiar face of Qin Yuanfeng, his forehead pressed tightly against the window, and his gaze was like a cold poisonous snake, sweeping over everyone below.
"Arakawa-kun!" Beside him, a white man in a suit was already walking around: "Let's decide!" No matter who you choose, I've got your back! ”
Minoru Arakawa didn't speak, his hand was already clenched into a fist and placed in his pocket.
"What a grand resignation ceremony...... "After a long time, he slowly opened his mouth intoxicated: "All the deadlines in the industry, no matter how far away the third party is, drive here...... Lincoln. Howard. My old partner, who can see that under this cluster of flowers, the Kowloon is like the inheritance of the Chinese imperial throne? ”
"Arakawa-kun, Qin Jun is still ten minutes away! Are you still in the mood for a joke? In the room, there were several other people who stood up at the same time and said anxiously: "The inheritance of the throne, anyone's connections and hole cards have been played!" Everyone is secretly looking for a partner underground, half a year, only half a year, no greater performance, that one will take office in half a year! What kind of character is he, don't we know? What a great opportunity is today? If our allies are identified, this half year is the time for Nintendo's major directors to really show their swords! ”
Minoru Arakawa took a deep breath, black sparks flashed in his eyes, no one knew that his heart was beating like a drum at the moment, and the heaviest inheritance in Nintendo's history was about to be realized in their hands.
Is it a war? Is it a refund? Is it to protect oneself or to sail against the current?
Maybe...... It's not a matter of consideration at all, and when this position is the throne of the president of Nintendo, everyone has made up their minds.
"Wait ......," he let out a long sigh and stared at the ground, "Today...... It's the best time...... Sega, the Qin Dynasty, are all out of the ...... Who is on whose side, with which first-party lineup to congratulate the abdication of the Yama cabinet, the third party must take a stand! I can't help but take a stand! ”
"Before the people of the Qin Dynasty appeared...... Before his hole cards are revealed, we must wait! ”
"Wait ......" At the same time, in another room, a man said the same thing.
"Wait? Your Excellency, with all due respect, we can't wait any longer! President Yamauchi has already begun to slowly transfer power, and with each passing day, the strength of that one person increases by one point! He can afford to wait, we can't afford to wait! ”
The man in front of the window of "Baga ......" scolded lightly and said hatefully: "Stupid...... It's not Sega, it's not a third party of Nintendo, is it from the Qin Dynasty? ”
"Smart people know what kind of sword and sword shadow is hidden under today's laughter banquet, for a third party, this is the Hongmen banquet...... They have to take sides. Otherwise, it will be rejected by the first party...... Do you think the word benevolence can be put on Qin Jun's head? Amusing...... Do you know that these little foxes of the third party, for them, in addition to choice, there is also a way to ......"
His eyes flickered slightly: "Abstain!" ”
"No one stands...... Low-key admission...... So the first party is still wooing them, not under the wings of Sega Zhongshan Falcon, not inside Nintendo, will they take refuge in the protection and umbrella of the Qin Dynasty? Comical...... It's a ridiculous joke! ”
"Wait...... Until the people of the Qin Dynasty appear, we will not take it lightly...... Because, this time the choice opportunity ...... Only once......"
"Qin Dong's people will be here soon." In the next room, Aso Banshan sat here with a gloomy face, listening to the report of the secretary next to him, anxious.
The Qin Dynasty rejected the MCA, but did not refuse to die! Still give an answer before Christmas! He doesn't even know if it's good or bad!
"Look at them...... As soon as the conference is over, I'm going to be the first to meet them! ”
"Seven billion ...... Seven billion six billion dollars! Just dragged by him! What the hell was he thinking! ”
