Chapter 194: A Surprise from Friends and Businessmen

Shirakawa Kaede, who had just returned to Neon in September, was given a big gift by his friends.

Looking at the total number of more than a dozen game handhelds in front of him, Shirakawa Kaede fell into silence directly.

"This is the new game handheld released by my peers during my absence?"

"Hai" Akagi's face was full of indignation, "President, they are too much! ”

Can it not be excessive?

More than a dozen, more than a dozen different clubs, as if an appointment.

In just two or three weeks, he launched his own handheld computer one after another.

As for their appearance, Shirakawa Kaede took a random one from the handheld on the table.

Well, what a familiar D-pad, even the size is about the same as Shirakawa's.

I put it down and took another one, "PLAY WATCH".

Shirakawa Kaede turned on the handheld, and it was also a fairly familiar game, almost identical to Nintendo's "Throw and Catch".

Lao Ren was also picked up wool?

Well, ok.

Shirakawa Kaede, who was laughing happily just now, instantly balanced a lot in his heart.

"President, these guys are shameless.

Not only our hardware design, but even our games they copy.

The only thing that has changed is that the name is different. ”

Akagi still feels very aggrieved when he thinks about it now, when the first similar product appeared.

Because Shirakawa Kaede was not there, he also contacted the corresponding club.

As a result, the other party said, "We just got inspiration from your company's game, if you must think it's plagiarism, then whatever", so it didn't make Akagi scold on the spot.

He had never seen such a brazen person!

Originally, he was thinking about whether to ask Shirakawa Kaede and sue directly.

However, the next handheld machine after another sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.

Looking at the handheld machines that are all over the ground, Akagi is also numb.

And Nintendo, another manufacturer of handheld computers, seems to be helpless for a while in the face of such a situation.

Because there are too many copycat manufacturers, I don't know where to start.

In the handheld world, there is even a feeling of being an enemy.

This is also the reason why Akagi is anxious and angry now, everyone is shameless, and there is really no good way for a while.

At the same time, Akagi felt a little guilty in his heart, the president handed over such an important business to himself, and he messed up.

Looking at Akagi's ashamed gaze, Shirakawa Kaede smiled and comforted him.

"Akagi-kun, don't worry. Shirakawa Electric's handheld will not fail in such a competition.

It is always the product itself, especially the content-related product, that determines the market. ”

"What do you mean, President...?" Akagi seemed to understand a little.

"Portable game consoles are a product, the hardware design is only an auxiliary, and the real core is the game itself.

Only by understanding this can the handheld business survive for a long time. ”

"I see, President, I understand." Content first, then I do the hardware ...

Seeing that Akagi seemed a little lost, Shirakawa Kaede continued to enlighten him.

Of course, when the content is not very different, the hardware design will be a plus, and even a key factor in the choice of consumers. For example..."

"Nintendo?" Akagi's eyes lit up.

"That's right," Shirakawa Kaede nodded with a smile.

After all, he is still young, and he still needs more experience.

"Rest assured, President, I will continue to work hard to come up with a better hardware design."

Akagi was resurfaced by Shirakawa Kaede's ear, and his confidence was reinvigorated.

Shirakawa Kaede nodded, and then reminded again.

"Of course, being plagiarized by so many manufacturers, we can't do nothing."

"Huh?" Akagi showed a puzzled look, isn't content king?

"Whether it's game content, or hardware design. This is all about cultivating oneself, that is, strengthening oneself.

Then in the case of confirming that the other party has plagiarized themselves, and the evidence is sufficient. ”

Shirakawa Kaede picked up the cross-arrow handheld that had the same cross-pad handheld as GAME BOY, and shook it towards Akagi.

"Then don't hesitate to go straight to court.

This is to resist foreign enemies and legally use legal weapons to protect themselves. ”

Cultivate oneself and reject foreign enemies.

This is the business strategy that Kaede Shirakawa taught Akagi.

To be honest, he is not worried at all that these friends will become Shirakawa Electric's opponents in the future.

Just look at their handheld design, whether it's gaming or hardware.

Either it is full of the shadow of Shirakawa Electric, or you can find traces of Nintendo.

How can it be possible to make good products with this attitude, Bai Chuanfeng estimates that they are also seeing the hot handheld market.

So with the intention of making a wave of quick money, referring to Shirakawa Electric and Nintendo, he hurriedly launched his own products.

For such a blatant action of a friend, Shirakawa Kaede is of course indifferent.

You just rotten money, just bad money, but such unscrupulousness, won't the market of handheld computers be stinked by you?

There are a lot of shoddy handhelds on the market, and there is no doubt that this will cause consumers' perception of various handhelds to decline rapidly.

If the reputation stinks, then Shirakawa Electric's business will also be affected.

And you plagiarized with your face, I don't knock on Baichuan Electric Appliances, how can I mix on the road?

"Let's take a look at what these handhelds have in common with our products and Nintendo's products.

I'll take care of the rest of the matter, and you will follow me when the time comes. ”

"Hai" Akagi bowed in high spirits, knowing that this was the president who was going to teach him personally.

Shirakawa Kaede is indeed consciously cultivating him, why is he doing this?

"Akagi, I'm going to set up a special game console division."

"Brush" Akagi suddenly raised his head, and the divine light in his eyes shone like substance.

Very good, with ambition, there will be the motivation for progress.

"Shirakawa Electric will have two divisions in the future, the Walkman Division and the Game Console Division.

The R&D, procurement, production and sales of each business unit are relatively independent, and the financial accounts are also separately calculated.

The game console division is temporarily managed by me, and under this, you Akagi is the head of the R&D department. ”

"Boss!" Akagi trembled with excitement, seeing that his posture was about to perform the ceremony of taking a seat.

"The head of the R&D department is not just right, the research and development of the next generation of products, the leadership of the design team, and the process problems encountered in the actual production process.

These are all issues that the head of the R&D department needs to consider, and this does not include the equally important management and coordination of personnel.

Akagi, since you've taken this job, don't let me down. ”

"Hay! The president can rest assured that Akagi will do his best. This time, Akagi's expression was much more serious.

But he was still excited in his heart, the head of the R&D department.

Although it is under the game console division, it is already considered a middle and high-level club.

In any case, this is much more powerful than an ordinary researcher in the previous technical department.

He has only just graduated for more than a year, and he has come to this point without knowing how many of his companions have passed.

Sure enough, following the president is the most promising.

"We will deal with these things as soon as possible, and we will not stop working on the new handhelds.

Accumulate more experience this year, and there will be big moves in the game console division next year. ”

"Hay!" Akagi only felt that he had inexhaustible strength at the moment.

There are even bigger challenges next year, so let's let them go.

Looking at the back of Akagi swinging his fist away, Shirakawa Kaede shook his head with a smile.

It's true that I'm still a little younger, but the game console field is also suitable for young people.

Including the group of people in charge of the game console business at the moment, everyone is basically young.

Akagi is in charge of the R&D department, although the age and qualifications are a little shallow, but everyone is about the same, so he doesn't seem abrupt.

The technical content of new things is not so high, which is very suitable for exercising newcomers.

As for the ministers of the two business divisions, Shirakawa Kaede is still thinking about it for the time being.

Now that he's taking care of it, the people in the club can also exercise more.

Considering the future structure of the company, Shirakawa Kaede looked back at the handhelds on the table.

Game calculator? That's a weird name.

Take another look at the manufacturer, Casio. Yo, this is a big guy.

But not to mention that the design of this handheld is really similar to a calculator, and it is also a numbers game.

Strictly speaking, it is not the same as Shirakawa Electric and Nintendo's handhelds.

Sure enough, it is a well-known company, and it still has its own arrogance.

Shirakawa Kaede put it down and picked up another one, which was the handheld with the D-pad.

Gaud? When I first saw the name, Shirakawa Kaede thought he was dazzled.

Instead of making a map, you came to make a game handheld?

Then I thought about it, and I remembered that it was like a company that made toy models.

Well, it's kind of interesting, write it down in a small notebook first.

Another one, Bandai?

Hey, I didn't expect you, a thick-eyed person, to have also engaged in copycat game consoles?

And that handheld that's almost exactly the same as Nintendo, Masudaya? Haven't heard of it.

Shirakawa Kaede put down these mostly similar handhelds and began to ponder.

Maybe you don't have to go it alone, but you should be fine talking to a new friend.

Thinking like this, Shirakawa Kaede found the address book and began to rummage through it carefully.

"Yamauchi-san, you see that there is another portable game console on the market today."

Gunhei Yokoi took the handheld made in neon and visited the president's office again.

Yamauchi sighed, "Let's put it down first."

He has no way to squeeze into the handheld market in a swarm of peers.

You can't be so domineering that you don't allow others to do handhelds, but Shirakawa Electric just scolded him because of this incident.

"By the way, how is the performance of Shirakawa Electric's second handheld?"

When it comes to Shirakawa Electric, Yamauchi Pu is concerned about the performance of the other party.

There are a total of more than a dozen handheld machines, and none of them have entered his eyes.

Only Baichuan Electric made him miss it in his heart, and he couldn't forget it from time to time.

"Compared with the first one, it's not too much." Yokoi Junhei was like meeting an old enemy in this life, and his eyes were full of vigilance and caution.

Sure enough, Yamauchi sighed.

It has to be Shirakawa, only he deserves to be treated wholeheartedly.

He won't even look at other miscellaneous fish and shrimp.

"Jingle bell..."

The ringing on his desk brought Yamauchi back from his deep thought.

"Moximoxi? … It's you?! …”

Yamauchi sat up straight in an instant.

This really isn't me... Maybe it's the server or the pot in the background, so you really wronged me
