The stakes are naturally high for the Elf Paradise partnership.

However, after all the negotiations have been going on for so long, the terms and plans of how to cooperate with the Seibu Group, construction and operation, etc., have been determined in great detail.

Therefore, it was Hideki's turn to meet Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, and the final signing would be completed so easily.

And those contents that need to be argued with red ears have long been handled by the subordinates of the two.

Otherwise, how could the two of them sit here so comfortably and dine and chat,

Of course, at this time, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi was proud, and in the face of Hanyu Hideki, he looked like a big brother, and he had already lost his former peace and floated away.

Otherwise, he would not have been taken to heart by Hideki Hanyu in a few words, and felt that the name of the richest man could be used completely.

In fact, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi can't be blamed for this.

This is the world's richest man in the limelight, and whoever doesn't float.

Besides, it is very normal for later generations of wealthy people to use the influence brought by wealth to make money.

Even now, there are people who are aware of this.

For example, a certain future commander of America secretly called Forbes magazine and said that he was undervalued.

It's just that Neon is too special this period.

But all the most floating neon tycoons in this period are not unlucky after the bubble bursts.

"A week later, at the TEPCO Exhibition, I was waiting for Tisang to arrive."

At the door of the restaurant, Hideki Hanyu shook hands with Yoshiaki Tsutsumi and said goodbye.

Genie Entertainment and Seibu Group will jointly announce the launch of the "Elf Paradise" project at the 5th TEPCO Exhibition.

Naturally, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi will not miss such an opportunity for the Seibu Group to show its face, and there will definitely be a launching ceremony at that time.

"I'll be on time."

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi said, reminding him again, "But before then, President Hanyu and I should see each other again." ”

"Will we meet again?"

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi saw Hideki Hanyu looking puzzled and asked, "Won't Chairman Hanyu attend the Odaiba Land Financing Conference three days later?" ”

"It turned out to be this matter, of course I would have participated, if it wasn't for Tysang's reminder, I would have almost forgotten."

Hideki Hanyu patted his forehead and made a sudden realization.

"Then I'll see you in three days, and I'll take my leave." ”

"Dysang, goodbye."

Hideki Hanyu puts Yoshiaki Tsutsumi in the car.

Thinking of going to Odaiba's land finance meeting in three days, Hideki Hanyu couldn't help but sigh.

"I've been busy lately."

Who thought that his emotion had just fallen, and Ishihara Chie, who was beside him, reminded him.

"Hanyu-sensei, the invitation from the Heart Elephant Chamber of Commerce just arrived this morning."

Hearing the words of the Heart Elephant Chamber of Commerce, Hanyu Hideki thought to himself, how could he forget this stubble.

He hurriedly asked, "What time does it start?" ”

It's no wonder he's anxious, it's all because there were so many things going on in March this year.

On the 10th, I will attend the land financing meeting in Odaiba.

The 13th 5th TEPCO Exhibition opened.

On the 28th, the first TGC fashion show was held.

Throughout March, from beginning to end, there was basically no time to be idle.

If you collide with any event, it's not going to be easy.

But soon, Ishihara Tomoe's answer relieved him.

"The person who came to deliver the invitation informed that the spring gathering time of the Heart Elephant Chamber of Commerce is 21 or 22 days, and the location is in Xianbei City, Akita Prefecture."

Hideki Hanyu said, "Fortunately, time has diverged, so it shouldn't affect other things." ”

For the gathering of the Heart Elephant Chamber of Commerce, Hideki Hanyu still doesn't want to miss it.

If he really collided with any event, he would really choose the spring gathering of the Heart Elephant Chamber of Commerce.

Besides, the first spring gathering to join the Heart Elephant Chamber of Commerce is still in Akita in the six northeastern counties.

He's barely half a master, so he can't play and disappear.

"Remember to remind me in advance." Hideki Hanyu explained.

Tomoe Ishihara immediately replied, "Yes, Hanyu-sensei." ”

……

After confirming the cooperation with the Seibu Group, Hideki Hanyu still couldn't sit idle.

There are too many things, and many of them need his attention.

The upcoming Odaiba land financing meeting is nothing more than the Tokyo Governor drawing a big pie, and then the major companies have the money to contribute and make a strong contribution.

On the contrary, it is the TEPCO Exhibition, and there are some things that he must pay attention to.

Returning to the elf propagation by car, Eri Kitahara and Satoshi Iwata are still there.

"How's it going?" Eri Kitahara asked.

Satoshi Iwata also cast a concerned gaze.

"It's just eating, what's the problem." Hideki Hanyu spoke in a relaxed tone.

Perhaps in the eyes of these two people, it will not be easy to deal with a big man like Yoshiaki Di, who dominates the political and business worlds.

However, Hideki Hanyu, who is familiar with history, does not think so.

He was more concerned about another thing than Yoshiaki Tsumi.

"The TEPCO exhibition is about to open, Sega and Nintendo have been pressed for so long, there will definitely be new moves, do you have any latest information over there?"

Because of his appearance, Elf Entertainment has sprung up in North America, stirring up the originally normal game market into a pot of porridge, which is completely incompatible with the history in memory.

As a result, he was unable to use his foresight to judge the next steps of his competitors.

Especially when the wool of the two families is almost the same as that of him.

"Sega's side has basically confirmed that the new generation of sixteen consoles will be announced at the TEP, as for Nintendo, they have done a good job of secrecy, and we also lack ties in Kyoto, so it is difficult to judge whether their new consoles have solved the compatibility problem."

Satoshi Iwata reports to Hideki Hanyu.

Eiri Kitahara, who was next to him, heard this, but raised a different opinion.

"I think that since Sega has confirmed that it will release a new console, Nintendo will launch a new console at this TEPCO Show, regardless of whether it can solve the compatibility problem or not."

Hearing Eri Kitahara's words, Hideki Hanyu felt like he had guessed the reason.

However, he didn't show off his cleverness to snatch Eiri Kitahara's words, but waited for the other party's follow-up explanation.

However, all three people present were smart people.

Hanyu Hideki didn't speak, but Satoshi Iwata showed a thoughtful expression.

"President Kitahara, is it because of the stock price?"

Eri Kitahara nodded and replied, "That's right, it's the stock price, Nintendo's stock price is now almost half of the highest point after the launch of the FC console."

It's just that we cannibalize the market, and if Sega's 16-bit console takes the lead, the stock price may plummet again. ”

"Hehe, in this period, the stock price of the entire Tokyo Stock Exchange is probably the only listed company that does not rise but falls."

Hideki Hanyu joked.

Because of his appearance, Nintendo in this time and space is really tormented.

But there is no way, for the sake of one's own happy life, someone must always sacrifice, and it is better to sacrifice others than to sacrifice oneself.

What's more, in the neon stirring up the wind and rain, Hanyu Hideki has no guilt in his heart.

Hearing Hideki Hanyu's words, Satoshi Iwata and Eri Kitahara also laughed.

Suddenly, Satoshi Iwata said in a strange way, "If Nintendo's stock price falls again, we might as well buy it openly." ”

"Uh-"

Hanyu Hideki thought to himself, Satoshi Iwata, how dare he think about it.

Before Genie Entertainment encroached on Nintendo's market last year, Nintendo's market capitalization peaked at $3.8 billion.

Even if it continues to fall now, it is still two billion dollars.

Especially when the FC console still has half of the market share in neon and Asia, Nintendo's cash flow is not a problem at all.

If you want to forcibly acquire such a company, "difficulty" is not enough to describe it.

But the problem is, when Satoshi Iwata said the idea.

Hanyu Hideki inexplicably felt that he was very excited, what was going on.

After all, it's Nintendo.

But the heart is the heart.

can think about the acquisition of an SNK that is about to be untenable, and Elf Entertainment has spent so much effort, but Hanyu Hideki quickly suppressed that heart with reason.

And before Hanyu Hideki could speak, Eri Kitahara poured a basin of cold water first.

"Iwata-san should put away this idea, we can only say that we have an advantage over Nintendo now, but Nintendo hasn't completely fallen yet, so let's not say such arrogant words."

Hideki Hanyu followed, "Iwata-san's proposal is exciting, but it's not the right time yet. ”

However, when his voice fell, Eri Kitahara, who was next to him, said with a surprised face, "Huh? Hanyu-san didn't even deny it, but said that it wasn't the right time, could it be that Hanyu-san was also interested in Nintendo. ”

"Of course it's false to say that we're not interested, as long as we continue to develop at the current pace, then sooner or later Nintendo will be beaten down by us, and that's our chance to dominate the neon game world!"

Hideki Hanyu took the opportunity to give the two people in charge a beating of chicken blood.

Of course, he didn't have a purpose.

Nintendo's classic IPs in the future have basically been snatched up by him.

Although Nintendo has developed many popular games with a lot of talent, none of them can compare to the classic games that were preempted by Hanyu Hideki.

In this case, the development of the long-term and the other, is predictable.

Maybe one day Nintendo's stock price will fall again and again, and it will really be found by Genie Entertainment to buy the bottom.

Perhaps, Hideki Hanyu won't have to wait too long.

If Nintendo can't solve the encroachment of Elf Entertainment on its own market, I'm afraid it won't even be able to resist the catastrophe of the bubble bursting.

Speaking of which, in fact, he still has one more idea that he has not said.

That is, Genie Entertainment desperately launched a merger and acquisition of Nintendo.

When the time comes, the two parties will merge into a club, and Genie Entertainment, which has an advantage in the board of directors, will also complete the acquisition.

It's just that in Hanyu Hideki's view, Genie Entertainment is developing smoothly now, and the acquisition of a declining Nintendo is really worth the loss.

And after his chicken blood was beaten, Iwata Satoshi immediately said.

"Then I have to hope that Nintendo will be like the president of Kitahara said, in order to protect the stock price, knowing that it is not compatible with FC games, and forcibly release sixteen consoles."

Eri Kitahara sighed, "If Nintendo's compatibility problem can't be solved, then it's really a difficult choice for their management." ”

Eri Kitahara doesn't need to explain, everyone knows what the problem is facing Nintendo at this time.

With all manufacturers launching sixteen-bit consoles, if Nintendo doesn't follow up, the stock market will immediately give negative feedback.

In this case, the board of directors of the listed company will inevitably ask Nintendo to launch a sixteen-bit console in order to maintain the stock price.

But the problem is that without solving the compatibility problem, the launch of 16-bit consoles can certainly maintain the stock price for a while, but at the expense of long-term interests.

Players buy a new console, and it's a trivial matter that the old cartridge can't be played.

The main thing is actually the attitude of third-party game developers.

Originally, FC consoles had a market of tens of millions in Asia, and it was still profitable for developers to continue to develop games on the FC platform.

But Nintendo's new sixteen-bit console is on the market, but it is to compete with the powerful Elf Entertainment PS console for the market.

In this uncertain situation, no one can say for sure whether third-party developers will support Nintendo's sixteen-bit consoles in the same way that they support FC consoles.

After all, the exclusive agreement that everyone signed at the beginning was only for the FC console platform.

Nintendo itself has given up on the FC console platform, so it is estimated that it is very likely that these developers will switch to the higher-selling PS console.

After all, although the PS host has not overpowered the FC host in Asia, it is a dominant player in the European and American markets.

Today's total global sales are infinitely approaching the 25 million mark.

If it weren't for the restrictions of the previous agreement, those manufacturers would have defected a long time ago.

Nintendo dares to abandon its martial arts, and how loyal can it be to count on these developers.

And a console platform without the support of a third-party developer, how miserable the ending will be, just refer to the previous Sega console.

Several manufacturers have been fighting until now, and they have basically figured out the rules of competition.

The host or something, it's all about losing money and making money.

What really makes money is the profit from the sale of game cards after the market eats it.

If you want to eat the market, you must have the support of game developers, which complement each other and are indispensable.

Gone are the days when one game platform was handled and game development was rounded.

In the past few years, Genie Entertainment has relied on the support plan to support a large number of third-party developers at any cost, and then use the exclusive agreement to buy shares, or acquire, and then turn the third party into a subordinate second party.

What is it for, isn't it for its own three major platforms to create a huge content supplier.

Speaking of which, this method was learned by Hideki Hanyu from Nintendo in another time and space.

However, Nintendo is a pioneer, ignorant and tentatively moving forward, and not doing it thoroughly enough.

But Hideki Hanyu crossed the river with Nintendo, and directly came up with the most mature support plan.

Taking advantage of those small studios, the developers have not yet risen, and they are directly recruited under their command.

The scope is not limited to neon, but directly throughout the world.

Compared with Nintendo in the original time and space, this approach of starting in advance looks more "kind" and the means seem more "gentle".

Now, on the contrary, Nintendo and Sega have taken Hanyu's example and started to support those small developers.

But the problem is that as long as it is a developer who is favored by everyone at the same time, Genie Entertainment can always win the competition by virtue of its market advantages and investment regardless of cost.

As the saying goes, the strong get stronger, the weak get weaker, and the winner takes all, which is the current situation.

Hanyu Hideki thought about it, and couldn't help but smile, and said in a gloating tone of watching the excitement.

"Hehe, I think Yamauchi Pu should have a headache now."

In the original time and space, Nintendo's SFC console has never been able to solve games compatible with FC consoles, resulting in them being tied down when facing the challenge of the Sega MD console, and it took a long time to launch a sixteen-bit console.

Of course, in the previous life, Nintendo did not have such an opponent as Genie Entertainment, and the FC console had a huge advantage.

Even in the face of a strong MD console, Nintendo can still rely on FC to get along.

But in this time and space, Nintendo's European and American strategy failed, and the Asian market was constantly encroached upon by PS consoles.

The pressure from the board of directors alone was enough for Yamauchi to drink a pot.

"It's not easy to be the president of a listed company." Iwata sighed.

Satoshi Iwata felt that compared to Pu Yamauchi, he was too happy as the president of Elf Entertainment.

Although there is the president of Hideki Hanyu on his head, everyone who knows Hideki Hanyu knows it.

Although Hideki Hanyu relies on his outstanding game creativity and beyond the visionary vision of ordinary people, he has unimaginable prestige in Genie Entertainment.

But on the contrary, Hanyu Hideki is a complete hands-off shopkeeper.

Aside from sometimes interfering in the development of products, Hideki Hanyu is rarely involved in the management of the club.

Of course, Hanyu Hideki is just too lazy to take care of it, but that doesn't mean he can't take care of it.

Almost all of the middle and senior management of Elf Entertainment are people he has cultivated, and the main game development, hardware research and development, production, and sales departments are the only ones who are the first to see Hanyu Show.

If Satoshi Iwata really has any small moves, he doesn't need Hanyu Hideki to do it himself, and the bunch of Hanyu Hideki's dog legs below is enough to sell him.

It's just that Iwata Satoshi won't do this at all, after all, even Iwata Satoshi was personally recruited and cultivated by Hanyu Hideki.

It can be said that at least in Hanyu Hideki's generation, whether it is the elf department or the cloud system, he is basically firmly in his hands.

As for the future, Hideki Hanyu would never think about such a thing.

"Iwata Sanbetsu sighed, there are still six days left before the opening of the TEPCO Expo, and there is an E3 exhibition in Amerika next month, are the plans for both sides ready?"

Hearing Hideki Hanyu's words, Satoshi Iwata hurriedly replied.

"President, I'm done, I'll have someone bring it to you later."

Seeing Satoshi Iwata's nervous answer, just like a student who was spot-checked by the teacher for "homework", Hanyu Hideki said helplessly.

"Ugh! Iwata-san, I'm just asking casually, don't be so nervous, I won't read the documents or anything, you can just talk about it briefly. ”

"Yes, President."

Satoshi Iwata responded and began to introduce the arrangements for this year's TEPCO exhibition.

"At the TEPCO Expo, we will promote the game Sonic proposed by the chairman, and we will also announce the production of a joint game with Cheng Long, based on the second part of the Kung Fu Death series, and the three major studios will launch ...... respectively."

Iwata Satoshi said a lot of things, but they were all about the content of the TEPCO exhibition.

After listening to this, Hideki Hanyu asked, "What about the E3 exhibition?"

Eri Kitahara replied strangely, "Hanyu-san doesn't know?" The Amerika Video Game Software Association has completely reformed the E3 exhibition in order to distinguish it from the TEPCO exhibition, and I also asked the editor-in-chief of the game base, Koji Takida, to send you a fax. ”

"When?" Hideki Hanyu wondered.

"It's just when I was in Xiangjiang before." Eri Kitahara said.

"Huh? Maybe the assistant forgot to give it to me, but Kitahara-san told me in detail. ”

Hideki Hanyu really can't remember.

Or maybe it was because he kissed me and me with the little beauty Zhou Huimin who just caught up, so he didn't pay attention to it.

But whatever the reason, it's good to let the assistant take the blame.

Anyway, Kaoru Chiba was left in the assistant's office to help because Reiko Uemura took leave.

Having said that, even if Kaoru Chiba would be here, would he dare to point out that Hideki Hanyu was lying.

Eri Kitahara did not doubt him, and explained the reform plan of the E3 exhibition for Hanyu Hideki in detail.

"First of all, the Amerika Video Game Software Association has completely reformed the holding model of the E3 exhibition in April, from the original exhibition for players like the TEPCO Show, to a media exhibition mainly for publishers, distributors, game developers, and game media."

"It's a bold move." Hideki Hanyu commented.

In fact, in another time and space, the model of the E3 exhibition is the model after the current reform.

But the problem is that in this time and space, Hideki Hanyu used the "Game Base" magazine nearly ten years in advance to contact all parties in America to launch the E3 exhibition.

At that time, the objective environment could not meet the requirements of media exhibitions at all.

The entire European and American game market has not yet been activated, and most of the publishers, distributors, and almost half of them have closed down because of the previous Atari shock, and the dealers in the cold market are reluctant to sell consoles.

In the media industry, there are not even a few serious game media.

In this case, there is no other choice than to imitate the TEPCO Exhibition to hold a player exhibition, first stir up the heat, and activate the market.

Now, two years have passed.

Genie Entertainment took advantage of Hideki Hanyu's foresight and foresight to lay out in advance and completely activate the European and American video game markets.

In terms of media, with "Game Base" in the past, the two-year E3 exhibition was cultivated, and the game media also began to see a scale.

In this case, the reform of E3 into a media exhibition is a matter of course.

And Eri Kitahara's words continued.

"In addition to the E3 exhibition reform in April, the Amerika Video Game Software Association has also decided to hold an entertainment exhibition around the surrounding culture of games in the second half of the year, which will be the main battlefield for the spread of elves."

Hanyu Hideki sighed again, "Americaka's movements are really big. ”

"Yes, inspired by the American Video Game Software Association, I am also considering holding a special exhibition in the second half of the year, led by Genie Communication. ”

Hideki Hanyu became interested and asked curiously, "What special exhibition?" ”

"For the time being, how about an exhibition that unites animation, comics, and games, Animation, Comics, and Games, and is called ACG?"

Eri Kitahara spoke her mind and looked at Hideki Hanyu expectantly, wanting Hideki Hanyu to give her advice.

"Uh...... I think it's a good idea, and Kitahara-san will decide for himself. ”

Hideki Hanyu wants to say, it turns out that Kitahara-san is the founder of ACG culture.

Speaking of which, although the cultural concept of ACG originated from neon, the concept word was born in Wanwan and is popular in the Chinese-speaking cultural circle.

Unexpectedly, he traveled through a lifetime and was about to change the course of history.

Talking about this, he finally remembered that he knew about the E3 exhibition because he wanted to know what Satoshi Iwata had prepared for the E3 exhibition.

So he immediately pulled the topic back and asked Satoshi Iwata, "Iwata-san, now I can tell you what you have prepared for the E3 exhibition." ”

Satoshi Iwata smiled mysteriously, "Guess, President." ”

Hanyu Hideki didn't have a good breath and said, "I guess you're big, say it quickly!" ”

Then Satoshi Iwata smiled and said something that shocked Hideki Hanyu.

"President, I'm ready to show off our next-generation console in front of everyone!"

Today six thousand two.

It's finally over.,Tomorrow the update will return to normal.,Strive to be in the explosion of the new wave.。

I hate the leader what he says about how many days he has been doing a lot, only doing a lot of work, not mentioning the matter of overtime pay, a heinous capitalist!
