Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 85 85.Three Kingdoms

Sega Corporation Headquarters.

"Are you kidding me? How could we possibly cooperate with Sony?"

Nakayama Hayao has a strong man's hairstyle.

Especially the long hair on the top of the head, it seems that it will be blown up by the wind in the next moment.

Mainly because of his baldness, Zhongshan specially grew his hair long and combed it to one side to cover up the small amount of hair.

Although it's a bit funny, the powerful aura exuding from his body makes people dare not take it lightly.

"To challenge Rentian. President Zhongshan, don't you want to defeat Rentian?" Qing Zhiyuan asked.

"Even so." Hayao Nakayama didn't hide it at all and said bluntly, "How can Pokeni and Sony help?"

In the previous life, Sega had a unique cooperation with Sony, but unfortunately it fell through due to Nakayama's sudden change of heart.

Because Sega chose another partner at that time-Bandai.

I have to say that Sega, this unlucky kid, has not been very lucky.

In the previous life, because of Bandai's innocence, Sega had the opportunity to merge Bandai, which had already been finalized.

As a result, Bandai's success in a series of electronic pets led by "Tamagoko" averted the crisis, and Bandai's employees opposed the merger plan, which led to the suspension of the merger plan.

When American EA entered the game market, the first thing it did was not apply to become a third-party game company for Sega. Instead, it quickly reverse-engineered Sega Genesis and developed games that could run without Sega's authorization.

It's really a big departure. If you have the time, why not crack the Nintendo SFC? What's the point of cracking down on Sega?

Later, when Sega was promoting in the United States, the big balloon of the mascot Sonic leaked, injuring many people...

There are really countless such situations, and even Qing Zhiyuan expresses sympathy for them.

"Sony doesn't know how to make game consoles, and it doesn't do software development well, so why should we cooperate with them?"

Of course, there is a real underlying reason that Hayao Nakayama did not directly state -

Sega's console is doing well, and if Sony and Pokeni get involved, won't the cake be taken away?

There is not enough food to begin with, but now several people have to share it at the same time. How can this be done?

The console war is originally a struggle for hegemony. How could Sega let others get involved?

"Sega's GG has a very serious problem in terms of battery life, and this problem happens to be something that only Sony can help solve." Qing Zhiyuan responded without being humble or overbearing.

Sega, this company, is really...

Not only was there no luck, but the name was really unique:

The handheld console was called GameGear, or GG for short. Although there was no concept of GG in this era, the final outcome was this handheld GG.

The console developed later was called Demon Sword.

The neon demon sword Muramasa can devour the master, and the result is undoubtedly GG.

…

When he heard the words "battery life problem", the corner of Nakayama Hayao's mouth twitched obviously.

Qing Zhiyuan hit his pain point firmly.

Although the current GG handheld console has its own natural advantages in terms of hardware——

Color screen, game performance is much higher than Rentiantian's GB.

But the most troublesome thing is——

In order to create a color screen, fluorescent lamps were used for the backlight, which was a big deal and the power consumption increased rapidly.

6 dry batteries can only support the GG handheld game for more than 2 hours, not even 3 hours.

And what about Rentiantian’s GB? Although it has a black and white screen and the games are very simple, it can still last for 8 hours.

A portable game console that can only be played for more than 2 hours has actually lost the meaning of being portable.

Such a game console is simply not affordable for ordinary gamers.

Moreover, in order to fit a [fluorescent tube] and 6 dry batteries, Sega's handheld console was forced to be large and thick, like a brick.

It even weighs an astonishing 0.5 kilograms.

This is no longer a handheld console, okay?

This is clearly a special wrist-strengthening device.

"Sony has not only storage technology, but also has great achievements in the battery field." Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "If Sony is involved, then Sega's handheld devices will make a qualitative leap and form a A crushing advantage over Rentian GB.”

Yes, Sony doesn't just lead the world in storage technology.

This company also has another unknown achievement——

Sony was the first company to put lithium-ion batteries on the market. In 1991, it opened the commercial era of lithium-ion batteries and changed the history of batteries.

Lithium-ion batteries are simply a dimensionality reduction blow to dry batteries.

The first is sustainable charging. The battery capacity has been increased by several levels, while the size has been greatly reduced.

This invention also laid the foundation for later mobile phones and handheld consoles.

If Sega's handheld console is combined with Sony's lithium-ion battery technology, it will greatly reduce the size of the handheld console and solve the battery life problem at the same time.

Qing Zhiyuan's words are not unreasonable.

…

Nakayama Hayao was a little shaken.

"We, Pokeni, Sony, and Sega, all have a common enemy, and that is Rentendo." Qing Zhiyuan continued, "I can understand the mood of President Zhongshan, but before Rentendo falls, why not cooperate? How about a moment?"

"I wonder how much President Zhongshan knows about China's Three Kingdoms history."

"Among the Three Kingdoms, Cao Cao was the most powerful. In order to fight against Cao Cao in the north, Liu Bei and Sun Quan joined forces and defeated Cao Cao's army in the Battle of Chibi. Later, they created three parts of the world."

"However, if Liu Bei and Sun Quan undermine each other and fight with each other, then the only result they will face is to be annexed by Cao Cao."

"Before Sega becomes the overlord, please consider pokeni's proposal." Qing Zhiyuan said.

…

Hearing the word "overlord", Nakayama Hayao's heart skipped a beat.

It must be said that Qing Zhiyuan is a strong lobbyist.

You know exactly what the other person needs and what you can provide.

Learning from each other's strengths and complementing each other's weaknesses, and each getting what it needs, is a win-win situation for all.

More importantly, he really impressed Nakayama Hayao. Sega's dream has always been to defeat Rentendo and replace it.

As for whether to join forces with others...

After hesitating for a while, Nakayama Hayao sighed.

"Please give us some time. Sega needs to hold a meeting to discuss this."

"Okay, President Zhongshan."
