Nobuyuki Idei was taken aback, this price was only known to their core executives, and the quotation was also unilaterally sent to Longteng, and the middleman was an internationally renowned lawyer they trusted very much, so it stands to reason that they could not have leaked the news from their side.

Then there is only one conclusion, these are all rumors deliberately released by Long Teng!

Nobuyuki Idei immediately called his own team of thinkers to discuss and held a meeting directly in his office, on the one hand, he imagined that the dragon would inform them of the negotiations, and on the other hand, he hoped that the think tank would help come up with the most likely outcome.

Why did Long Teng release this rumor on his own?

What is Yang Yun's true intention?

They can hear these news and rumors, presumably those competitors can also inquire, how can there be business negotiations to directly show all the hole cards to everyone?

Is this a strict negotiation involving billions of dollars?

Nobuyuki Idei has been galloping in the mall for 40 years, and he has never been so aggrieved as he is today, and he feels that doing business with Chinese is too sad and sad......

Obviously, the confused Nobuyuki Idei didn't wait for Longteng's notice, and he didn't hear any news until the 20th, but he knew very well that Sony must have been eliminated.

But why was Sony eliminated? Is he bidding too low? No, they had a strong bid, $1.8 billion with no strings attached, while other Japanese companies were more or less asking for it.

He was very angry that Long Teng completely played them like monkeys, the first quotation was thrown into the wastebasket, the second quotation was thrown into the wastebasket, and the third quotation directly gave a "go back and wait for the call" reply. But in the end, there was a fart reply, and Long Teng never contacted Sony from beginning to end!

March 26. As soon as the mystery is revealed, Nobuyuki Idei sees the news on TV. He was stunned.

Sharp successfully purchased a 50% stake in LongEricsson held by Longteng Entertainment Games for $2 billion, and paid an additional $200 million to buy the entire interest in LongGamePhone from Ericsson and transfer it to Longteng Entertainment Games.

Longteng Entertainment Game Company has made a commitment that they will not restrict all game developers who cooperate with Longteng, everyone can make Android games for Sharp Ericsson's next-generation smartphones, and Longteng's own copyrighted games will also be planned to make Android versions, the biggest selling point of Android smartphones will be highlighted, becoming the biggest weapon against traditional digital analog 2G ordinary mobile phones!

It also means that Sharp paid $2.2 billion in tuition. Really get into this promising smartphone gaming industry.

"Impossible! It's absolutely impossible! $2.5 billion in assets, but it turned out to be 2 billion in cash plus a $200 million worth of LongGamePhone that can be bought? Is Long Teng a fool? Are they really that kind to sell cheaply? Is their promise of game openness really worth that much money? ”

Nobuyuki Izui scolded bitterly, he seemed to have forgotten that he only quoted 1.8 billion, and he also wanted to take advantage of Longteng's eagerness to get rid of it and pick up this big bargain, and he also hoped that this acquisition could save a little bit of decline from the negative impact of Sony's 2002 fiscal year, but now, everything is shattered!

However, his think tank still came to his senses: "President, it turns out that we Sony are not their target. We're just a kidnapper......"

That's right, the $1.8 billion offer from the kidnapper Sony made Panasonic and Sharp quite uncomfortable, and Yuan Xinyi's attitude was very tough. The handover was completed within 10 working days, and all the company's assets were transferred as early as a month ago, and the shares of Longteng were worth this price. Agree to sign the contract and handle the handover. Disagreeing, she turned around and went to Sony to sign a contract, and they only had one day to think about it.

In the end, Sharp gritted his teeth and took the plate. They are the boss of the Japanese mobile phone industry, and they absolutely cannot tolerate Sony, a second-rate and third-rate rising star, to enter the market, Sony's high-precision electronic consumer goods have a great advantage in the international market, and they must be the first Japanese mobile terminal manufacturer to enter Europe.

In addition, because of the guarantee of Longteng's game, they have no worries, so Sony will be crushed to death, and even with Panasonic NEC, it will be suppressed, and Sharp will be unbeatable.

"In other words, we Sony have been tricked again?"

Nobuyuki Idei felt like a fool, obediently quoting a sky-high price that he was dripping blood, which was beyond their expectations, and he felt that he would lose money, but he didn't expect it to become a bargaining chip for Longteng to raise his own value, and it became a bargaining chip to blackmail others!

He knew that they must be very uncomfortable under Sharp Panasonic, but in order not to let Sony succeed, Sharp must have gritted his teeth and paid this money, although Sony saved the 1.8 billion, but Sharp still made more money, and it was the Japanese who suffered!

"Mr. President, it's not that we have been tricked, we can only say that the Chinese are too cunning, they have seized the vigilance of our Japanese companies against each other, and used our competitive relationship with Sharp Panasonic to make a fuss, which is completely opportunistic!" The subordinates comforted, but this touched Nobuyuki Idei's heart even more.

"Needless to say, you don't understand my mind......" Nobuyuki Idei felt tired, these think tanks had not served the Sony Games department led by Ken Kutaragi, they probably didn't know anything about the horror of the dragon, and he knew all about it.

Long Teng's opponent is really too cunning, when encircling and suppressing their Sony game department, he will be tortured by Kutara Wood Ken to eat and drink, exhausted, Sony lost the game department, and then lost the music player, and now even into the mobile phone manufacturing industry, Long Teng also strongly blocked Sony from the door, the Chinese are the best at combining vertical and horizontal, intriguing!

"Amaterasu! I really don't want to go against Longteng, you can bless our Sony company! ”

Nobu Idei thought silently in his heart, he waved his hand and asked the others to leave, he didn't want to see anyone now, he just wanted to be a quiet contemplative, and he finally began to reflect on his mistakes.

With the mediation and coordination of PricewaterhouseCoopers International Accounting Firm, it only took eight working days for Sharp to complete the handover with Longteng.

On March 29, LongEricsson (now renamed SharpEricsson), which had been suspended for a month, rose 10%, and Sharp's stock rose 4%.

On the last stock trading day of March, Sharp cheered and shook the sky, Panasonic and NEC hung their heads, Sony Group was like ashes, and the computer communications industry media made all kinds of ridicule.

"Sony, which has become a second-rate company, has lost the smart game mobile phone industry for the third time after losing the game industry and the music player industry in a row. Sony still has a chance to turn over, they can continue to make movies to chase the Oscars, or they can borrow $20 billion to buy Paramount and MGM Pictures in the United States, maybe they can integrate Hollywood movies and become world-famous! ”

-- The famous Japanese commentator Kakiyoshi Takeishi made a comment on the Yahoo blog in Japan, ridiculing the failure of Sony, which only has movies and entertainment to boast about, and even their largest electrical appliance business is also going downhill, and Trilon Display has lost to Sharp Samsung, which developed LCD screens, and China's Lin Investment Company, and this huge empire is on the verge of ruin.

"Compared to Ken Kuta, who is developing a PS2 game at NewSonic and calling on the Japanese people to put pressure on the cabinet to support Japan's domestic games and consoles, Nobuyuki Idei seems to have fallen off the standard in management, and a series of decisions have been wrong. At that time, Norio Ohga should have been blind to him, and he didn't choose Ken Kutaragi, but chose Nobuyuki Idei, who had hardly done one thing right, and I believe that if Norio Ohga knew about it, he would definitely regret it, and Sony would be ruined in the hands of Nobuyuki Idei, a coward! ”

-- Isao Hashimoto, editor-in-chief of Famitsu, a Japanese game industry analyst, said that he had watched Ken Kuta, a genius in the game industry, be kicked out of Sony by Nobuyuki Idei, and now he had to stand up for Ken Kutaragi out of righteous indignation.

"Strong support for NewSonic! This is the only hope of the Japanese Yamato nation in the game industry! ”

"I call on Prime Minister Koizumi to continue to promote PS2!"

"The revitalization of Japan's game industry needs NewSonic! Hayao Nakayama is needed! It takes Ken Kutaragi! ”

More and more people have chosen to support PS2 from a neutral attitude, several large group companies in Japan now only Sharp has thwarted Longteng, other Panasonic has lost billions on 3DO, Sony has lost so much that there are no pants left, NEC has long died down and transformed into a PC machine, Hitachi is about to lose even its own strength, the CPU industry is about to hold on, and now only NewSonic is still gritting its teeth and insisting in Japan, and the Japanese can't give up this only holy flame!

March 30th and 31st were Saturdays and Sundays, and 800,000 Japanese people across the country walked the main streets of cities with flags and slogans under the leadership of the "Game Industry Salvation Association".

NHK TV, Asahi Shimbun, Yomiuri Shimbun, Fuji TV, Mainichi Shimbun and other mainstream media interviewed the whole process, and many foreign media such as BBC, ABC, The Times, and the Japan Branch of the Shin/Chinese News Agency were also ready to participate in the whole process.
