Super Tycoon

"Yokai Junping retired early? Are you serious? Good, very good!" Zhang Yang was very happy when he heard the news.

When Matsuda Jiri heard Zhang Yang's excited voice on the phone, he knew that he was right to report the news.

"Mr. Zhang, Sega will definitely use this to make a fuss and attack Nintendo. Should we add fire?"

"Yes, of course! Yokoi Gunpei developed GB, which made Nintendo's handheld the number one sales in the industry, and created countless records. Now because of the failure of VB, how many people will be retiring early, how many people will be chilled!"

"And I guess it's not just Sega that's going to attack Nintendo, Suoney or whatever. If they can poach some talent from Nintendo, those companies won't be polite."

"By the way, try to invite Junping Yokoi and ask him if he is interested in working in Zhiduoxing. I appreciate his design concept and am willing to help him improve the VB architecture and launch a new portable game console."

Matsutajiri was stunned: "Mr. Zhang, VB is a failure. Should we continue to develop in this direction?"

"Yes, this product has many shortcomings, but as long as it can solve the key points, I am very optimistic about this type of game console in the future. Of course, it is not a portable game console, but a home game console."

This is too similar to future VR devices. If you can make it first and then develop related games, you will definitely sweep the market!

"Okay, let me try. I heard that Junpei Yokoi put all his pension money into the VB project this time. The product sales failed, and the guaranteed sales of 5 million yuan are far from being achieved. Gunpei Yokoi is sure. A large sum of compensation is also required, and all the Nintendo stocks he holds should have been taken back."

"Lin Lao suddenly lost the money he had spent half his life fighting for. Maybe we can use money to impress him. But I am worried that there are some non-compete clauses in his agreement with Nintendo."

"In our island country, many people's contracts are for life. The corporate culture will also instill an idea in the employees. Only when the company makes money can the employees make money. If the company loses money and goes bankrupt, the employees will lose their jobs. This idea, It is also very popular in companies such as Formosa and South Korea.”

This principle is very simple, and many people know it well, but when they are laid off because of poor performance, they will feel sad. Because it is easy for people to think, why the benefits are not good, and it is me who was laid off, not others?

I understand the reasons for the company's layoffs, but I don't understand the reasons for laying off me.

The same is true for the laid-off employees of Huaxia enterprises. They know that if they are not laid off, it will be difficult to get paid, so they might as well do something else. But when they were actually notified that they were laid off, it was hard to accept it. I used to think that this was an iron rice bowl, which not only could be eaten by myself for a lifetime, but could also be passed on to my family.

Perhaps under pressure, Yokoi Junpei had to resign, but is Yokoi Junpei really willing? He didn't think about it, was it because Nintendo didn't give him enough support and didn't have enough publicity?

"Matsuda, you don't need to tell me more about this matter. You can go to contact Junping Yokoi, or invite him to travel in China. As for the matter of adding trouble to Nintendo, just let it go, I believe you can do it well .”

"I understand." Tomo Matsudajiri paused, "Mr. Zhang, did you arrange for Zhang Benxiong from Xiangjiang to contact Bandai Company? You also promised the other party that if you cooperate, you can transfer some of the game copyrights of Zhiduoxing Company, including animation copyrights. Developed for Bandai?"

"Yeah, what's the matter? Is it because I didn't authorize you before?"

"No, it's not for this reason. Bandai gave me the answer, even if I put forward this condition, they would not agree. However, the company that distributes the KOF series of comics on the island country was acquired by Bandai."

Zhang Yang: "???"

In other words, people don't need to cooperate at all, and they have already obtained the distribution rights of the island country? Zhang Benxiong didn't know about this news?

"Okay, I got it. In the future, the agency rights of all products of Zhiduoxing Company in the island country,

They are all owned by Huadao Spirit Company, so after the agency right over there expires, you can re-authorize it to other companies, or continue to cooperate with Bandai Company. I believe in your choice. "

"Continue to keep an eye on Bandai to see which company they will actually merge with. Once confirmed, you must notify me immediately."

After hanging up the phone, Matsutajiri Satoshi immediately ordered his subordinates to release news in newspapers and magazines, attacking Nintendo for being ungrateful and killing the donkey.

At the same time, he personally contacted Junpei Yokoi, hoping to get in touch with him. He believes that once Junping Yokoi can join Zhiduoxing or Huadao Spirit Company successfully, his status in Zhang Yang's mind will be raised to a higher level.

...

The board of directors is being held within Nintendo, and all the directors have ugly faces. First, the slow sales of VB shook Nintendo's position, and then some people made a fuss about Yokoi Junpei's retirement.

The company's employees retire, and they continue to pay pensions. What's the problem with this, and what does it matter to other companies?

There is also the VB project, which they did not plan to launch at first, and planned to wait another year or two until the technology became more mature. It was Junpei Yokoi who issued a military order with them, saying that they would produce and market the product with a minimum sales volume of 5 million units.

They chose to believe in Yokoi Gunpei, but Nintendo lost a lot of money. Not to mention the direct loss of hundreds of millions of dollars, which indirectly led to a serious decline in Nintendo's reputation, and this part of the loss was even more serious.

As the project leader, Junpei Yokoi invested a sum of money. This is also a common practice. If he succeeds, Junpei Yokoi can get more money. If he fails, he should naturally take the blame.

It was Junpei Yokoi who took the initiative to invest all the Nintendo stocks he held in the VB project. If it failed, the capital could not be recovered. Does Junpei Yokoi still want Nintendo to pay for his mistakes? The bigger loss is Nintendo, why should we say that we are ungrateful? Were there too few rewards given to Yokoi Gunpei before?

Why are they attacking Nintendo at this time, when this kind of thing doesn't happen in your company? After all, it is because of Hengjing Junping's high reputation that he is called the father of GB.

"Should we invite Yokoi-kun back? He also presided over the development of GBP. He was also in charge of the color GB project before. Let him come back and continue to be in charge of this?" Someone suggested.

"Can a person who made a mistake erase the traces of his mistakes because of his past achievements? If so, what future does our company have?" Someone immediately raised objections.

Besides, they didn't lose Yokoi Junpei. If Yokoi Gunpei had the heart, he should say something for Nintendo at this time.

"I don't agree with inviting Yokoi-kun back to continue to be in charge of GB, but we can negotiate with him and give him a sum of money to speak for Nintendo."

At this time, Yokoi Gunpei was entertaining Matsutajiri Satoshi at home.
