Chapter 1992: Funeral
In April 1999, the news came out that shocked all those who worked in the game industry, that is, the chairman of Nintendo, the former tyrant, died quietly one night.
The cause of death was organ failure, although this result was unexpected, but it was expected, after all, it has been in the ward for more than three years, and it is lucky to be able to survive until now.
But when everyone heard the news of the death, everything was so distressing.
After all, for the video game industry, Yamauchi Pu is equivalent to the founding grandmaster of the martial arts, Zhang Sanfeng's general status, and he is also the founding grandmaster of the entire martial arts, it is his FC game console that opens up a whole new world for the game industry.
Once upon a time, Yamauchi Pu was also a big mountain that pressed on everyone's heads, and it was not until recent years that it was overturned by Daqian.
But there is no doubt that the influence of his Yamauchi Pu is unparalleled.
Because the funeral regulations of Fuso stipulate that the time from the discovery of death to the cremation of the deceased should not exceed 24 hours unless there is a special reason.
After cremation, the farewell ceremony is usually held a day later.
However, Yamauchi Pu's status is special, and there are too many people at home and abroad who want to come to mourn, so the farewell ceremony has been postponed for 3 days.
Therefore, when Yamauchi passed away in the early morning of April 2, the family first spent a whole day on April 2 to wake the deceased's spirit, that is, an all-night ritual.
This generally means that only the relatives of the deceased, neighbors, and colleagues from the company are eligible to participate.
On April 3rd, Yamauchi's funeral and cremation took place, and on this day, in addition to his family, a few extremely close friends also participated.
During the day on April 7th, it is a serious funeral, and during this daytime, as long as you know the deceased, think you can call yourself a friend, or have respect for the deceased, you can go to the farewell ceremony.
————
It's just that Yamauchi's body is gone, replaced by a posthumous portrait and his ashes.
Although it is a bit inappropriate to say this, this day was also the most lively day of the whole funeral.
Yamauchi was a Buddhist, so his ceremony was held at a local temple with more than 50 monks chanting to the deceased.
On this day, a large number of mourners came, basically from the game industry, including practitioners from all over the world, who came to say goodbye to Mr. Yamauchi with a very heavy heart.
Upon arrival, the mourners first register their names and identities at the registration desk of the farewell ceremony, and then present a gift of incense, which is a red envelope from Huaxia.
According to Fuso's custom, the money is usually around 10,000 yen to 15,000 yen, but of course, if the guests are willing to pay more, it doesn't matter, it depends on their own wishes.
Therefore, some people know that Fusang people never accept gifts, and marriage is very easy, unlike Huaxia who asks for all kinds of red envelopes or something, all of them are farts.
People Fuso collected money even more ruthlessly, 10,000 to 15,000 yen, which is basically equivalent to 1,000 to 1,500 yuan in Huaxia.
Ahem, to get back to the point, many of the people who came to attend the Yamauchi Pu ceremony were bosses in the game industry, so how could they only give a mere 10,000 yen for the incense ceremony.
Therefore, many of the guests who came to mourn, except for ordinary people, gave very thick ceremonies, almost all of them were more than 100,000 yen.
And whenever there is such a number of incense ceremonies, the relatives who greet the guests at the door will bow deeply and thank them.
Well, if not, then just bow slightly, and you don't have to say a word, it's so realistic.
"Sony Mutual Entertainment, Mr. Ken Kutaragi, incense 1 million yen, to mourn, to worship the gods!" Suddenly, a really huge incense ceremony appeared, and Yamauchi Katsuren, the eldest son of Yamauchi Pu at the door, hurriedly came over to greet him.
Although the relationship between Sony Games and Nintendo is really bad, Sony is a company involved in all aspects of Fuso, and the Yamauchi family does not dare to offend Sony at all, so Katsuhito Yamauchi still comes to receive Kutaragi Ken very respectfully.
And some of the guests near the door also greeted Kutaragi Ken, Kuda Raragi nodded, held Yamauchi Katsuhito's hand, and after a few words of relief, he was ready to go in and say his final goodbye to Yamauchi.
And Yamauchi Katsuhito ordered his son to greet him at the door, and he was about to accompany Yoshiki Ken to go in, when suddenly there was a commotion at the entrance of the temple, and three black Mercedes Benz cars stopped at the temple gate in turn, and then three people in black suits got out of the car one after another.
Two women and one man, two of whom were extremely beautiful and could be called national colors, but they took the initiative to follow behind the leader and walked towards the temple in unison.
"Huh!" How long did Yoshiki Ken let out an exclamation, and then stopped, which surprised Katsuhito Yamauchi, and then looked at the three people who came down.
The three of them looked quite young, but Katsuhito Yamauchi had never seen them before. On the contrary, it seems that it is how long Liang Mu Ken knows these three people.
"Mr. Ryaki, ...... they," Katsuhito Yamauchi asked in a whisper.
"You don't know them? Your father was impressed with that man! Ken Liangmu asked with some surprise.
"I'm not interested in games, so I don't know anything about my father's career!" Katsuhito Yamauchi shook his head, his hobby was archaeology, and he really didn't have any interest in games.
And his younger brother was also not interested in games, so Yamauchi Pu finally had to hand over his career to an outsider, Satoshi Iwata.
It's also amazing to say.,In the dignified game overlord's house,Two men are actually not interested in the game.,This is probably a rebellious psychology.。
"The one who walked in front is called Jia Yapeng!" How long did Liang Mu Ken say in a low voice.
"He is Jia Yapeng!" Katsuhito Yamauchi's expression turned cold, and a wave of anger arose.
Although Katsuren Yamauchi has never met Boss Jia, it doesn't mean that he hasn't heard of this name.
After all, the reason why his father has been working hard in the hospital bed for three years is because Jia Yapeng and his Daqian game gave his family a backstab, which made his father vomit blood and coma in anger, and finally died this year.
These are all the credit of Jia Yapeng, Katsuhito Yamauchi has heard of this name more than once, but it is the first time that the real person has seen it, and a wave of hatred naturally arises spontaneously.
"Father, I kicked him away, he is not eligible for grandpa's funeral!" Katsuhito Yamauchi's son was still a young man, and he couldn't hold his breath, so he was ready to drive people away.
And Katsuren Yamauchi hesitated, but he didn't stop it, and he didn't want to see his father's enemy actually appear at his father's farewell ceremony.
