Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 887 Don’t Believe in Yourself, Then Believe in Me

Vancouver BC Queen's Hospital is a famous obstetrics and gynecology hospital in Canada. Many domestic celebrities went to Canada to give birth in this hospital.

Hideki Hanyu, who likes to prepare for a rainy day and has no shortage of money, donated a large sum of money to the hospital early on.

Therefore, when he sent Wang Zuxian here today, he immediately enjoyed VIP treatment.

However, Wang Zuxian did not enjoy this VIP treatment for long.

Because today's delivery was so smooth.

From leaving home to arriving at the hospital, and then to being pushed into the delivery room.

Hideki Hanyu was outside the delivery room with the nervous-looking Wang Zuxian's family. After waiting for less than twenty minutes, they received a notice from the doctor.

"Sir, your wife has successfully given birth, and both mother and child are very healthy. We will take care of it briefly, and you can meet in the ward."

The doctor's attitude towards Hideki Hanyu, the big capitalist who donated money, was very good.

Not long after, they were taken by the nurse to the ward and saw Wang Zuxian lying on the bed and the baby next to him.

Just like a newborn baby, it's wrinkled and nothing good to look at.

But everyone can be sure that the little boy who inherited the genes of Wang Zuxian and Hanyu Hideki will not be too bad in appearance when he grows up.

When Hideki Hanyu looked at the child in front of him, his mood couldn't help but fluctuate even though he was his fifth child and second son.

Looking at his second son in front of him and then thinking about his eldest son, Hideki Hanyu suddenly discovered an unexpected coincidence.

That is, his eldest son's mother Zhou Huimin and his second son's mother Wang Zuxian were both goddess-like figures that Hanyu Hideki could never reach in another time and space, but this was not the coincidence he thought.

The coincidence he thought of was that in another time and space, Zhou Huimin and Wang Zuxian, one had a bumpy relationship and the other remained unmarried for life, but neither of them had children.

As a result, the two people who had not given birth in another time and space gave birth to his only two sons so far in this time and space.

Could this be an alternative space-time compensation mechanism, whereby people who did not give birth in another space-time will exclusively give birth to boys in this space-time?

The Space-Time Administration also favors boys over girls?
Hanyu Hideki was full of wild thoughts. After the Wang family members finished caring about their daughter, he went up to Wang Zuxian and took his hand to comfort him.

After all, the other party had just given birth to a son for him. No matter how deep the feelings were, he still had to have the right attitude.

As they were talking, Wang Zhuxian suddenly asked Hanyu Hideki, "Have you thought of a name for the child?"

Hanyu Hideki nodded, "My Japanese name is Hanyu Yuzhi, and as for my Chinese name, I haven't decided yet, but the Chinese name I chose for myself is Liu Mingxiu, you can ask your uncle to help think of one."

Wang Zuxian's ancestors came from a family of scholars, so it was easy for him to give him a Chinese name.

Wang Zuxian thought about it and said that his father would definitely be happy to name the child, and when the time comes, he could just give Hanyu Hideki a few names and let him choose one.

The matter of the name ended here. Wang Zuxian had just given birth, so Hanyu Hideki did not bother her for long. He talked for a while and then let her rest.

Next, Hideki Hanyu and several members of the Wang family naturally took turns to take care of Wang Zuxian in the hospital.

However, because the delivery went smoothly, Wang Zuxian did not stay in the hospital for long. She was admitted on the 21st and returned home on the 23rd.

After giving birth, there were more caregivers accompanying Wang Zuxian in the mansion.

In addition to the family doctor, there is also an experienced confinement nanny and professional postpartum care and recovery staff.

When it comes to spending money on this, Hideki Hanyu has never been stingy.

Under the meticulous care of Hideki Hanyu, Wang Zuxian recovered quite quickly.

However, under the Queen Mother's request for confinement after childbirth, no matter how well Wang Zuxian recovered or how energetic he was, he could only stay in his room feeling wronged and unable to come out.

As the time came to April 25th, it was time for Hideki Hanyu to leave.

That afternoon, he was sent out by the Queen Mother.

As for Wang's father and Wang Zuxian's two elder brothers, they passed away earlier than Hanyu Hideki.

His daughter and her child were both safe. After the birth, Wang's father looked at the invitation letter from the chairman of the preparatory committee of the "Chinese Professional Basketball League" in his hand and began to feel uneasy. He was eager to return to Taiwan.

The same is true for Wang Zuxian's two brothers.

The second brother wanted to return to Taiwan as soon as possible to show off the luxury house he had just bought to his girlfriend.

The eldest brother wanted to quickly connect with S&S to help his small company grow bigger and stronger.

Therefore, even if the Queen Mother scolded these three men for being heartless and not knowing how to take care of Wang Zuxian, it could not change the reality that the three of them hurried back to Taiwan as soon as Wang Zuxian was discharged from the hospital.

As for Hideki Hanyu, he was classified by the Queen Mother as a person of affection and righteousness.

After all, her daughter explained to her that Hideki Hanyu's company's upcoming exhibition in Las Vegas is very important to Hideki Hanyu.

Hideki Hanyu was able to delay his departure until two days before the opening ceremony, which can truly be described as a show of loyalty and righteousness.

Many times, although Hideki Hanyu calls himself a scumbag, it is only because he is fickle and amorous.

But in other aspects, Hanyu Hideki believes that he has completely lived up to his conscience.

Think about how important this year's E3 Expo in Las Vegas is to Hideki Hanyu and ELF Entertainment.

Compared with this matter, Wang Zuxian’s father’s so-called chairmanship, his eldest brother’s small company, and his second brother’s house are nothing.

However, Hideki Hanyu chose to stay with Joey Wong until now.

From this we can see that many times, perhaps Hanyu Hideki calling himself a scumbag is just an alternative way of mocking himself.

……

After more than two hours of flight, Yunshang landed at McCarran International Airport in Las Vegas in the evening.

Thirty-one years later, the airport would be renamed Harry Reid International Airport.

Harry Reid was an American senator from Las Vegas and later served as the leader of the majority party. Las Vegas renamed the airport in his memory.

This is a typical old-school American politician. He doesn't get along well with a future president who sometimes goes crazy, but he is deeply loved by Karl Map.

Karl Map introduced Hanyu Hideki to this person more than once, and Hanyu Hideki was happy to see this happen. After all, the other party would be extremely influential in Washington DC for a long time to come.

While I was thinking about all these things, Hideki Hanyu had already walked out of the airport.

Then he saw the person coming to pick him up outside the exit.

There are quite a lot of people coming, and the lineup is quite strong.

There were three women standing together, talking and laughing. The one wearing a women's suit was Eri Kitahara.

As the former president of Elf Entertainment and current president of Elf Communications, the success of the second-generation PS console is also crucial to Elf Communications, so it is natural for Kitahara Eri to come in person.

The ones chatting with Kitahara Eri were Nakamori Akina and Koizumi Kyoko, who had previously agreed to meet in Las Vegas.

The two arrived in Las Vegas yesterday on the Spirit together with Eri Kitahara and other Spirit Entertainment executives.

Akina Nakamori and Eri Kitahara have always been good friends, and the two often go shopping together. Kyoko Koizumi has been the spokesperson for Elf Entertainment for many years, so Hideki Hanyu is not surprised at all that the three of them can get together and chat.

Not far from the three women, there were three men standing.

The three men were also talking at this time, but judging from the way they spoke, they were obviously more serious than the three women, and it was obvious that they were not discussing trivial matters.

As for their identities, they are three people standing at the top of the management of Elf Entertainment.

They are Satoru Iwata, president of Elf Entertainment, Michael Katz, president of Elf Entertainment North America, and Tetsuya Aragaki, technical director of Elf Entertainment.

These six people together form the lineup for Hanyu Hideki to pick him up at the airport today.

Just as Hanyu Hideki was looking at the six people, the six people also noticed Hanyu Hideki walking out.

Hanyu Hideki was the first to greet the six people with a smile, "I didn't expect that so many people would be waiting for me."

However, the next moment, Kitahara Eri's signature teasing voice rang out.

"At this critical moment for Elf Entertainment, you, the big boss, are late. We are afraid that you will escape, so we come together to invite you back."

After hearing what Kitahara Eri said, Hanyu Hideki suddenly realized, "It seems that something serious must have happened, otherwise you would never move out together."

Kitahara Eri put away her joking thoughts and said seriously, "The airport is not the place to talk. I have already booked a restaurant. We can just have dinner and talk at the same time."

"Let's go then."

Hideki Hanyu asked everyone to get in the car and head towards Las Vegas.

……

In a high-end hotel in Las Vegas.

Hanyu Hideki was in a neon-style restaurant and couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect you could find such a neon restaurant in Las Vegas." "Neonies are crazy about spending all over the world. They have been an important source of customers in Las Vegas over the years. There are many neon-style restaurants in Las Vegas, and even many casinos have set up neon-style gambling halls."

The person who spoke was Tetsuya Aragaki.

When Hanyu Hideki heard this, he thought that this world is indeed a cycle.

In the future, as a large number of wealthy people in China go abroad to consume, they will basically enjoy the same treatment as the Japanese during the bubble economy period.

When some people do things, don't look at what they say, but look at what they actually do.

Sometimes I feel so angry that my teeth itch, but I still say welcome.

So, making money is not shameful.

Kitahara Eri said in surprise, "Aragaki-san knows so much about it, it seems like he comes here often to play."

Aragaki Tetsuya waved his hand, "My girlfriend likes to come and play, I just want to accompany her."

As the few of them chatted, they took their seats one after another. As the waiter brought some delicious food, they gradually started to talk about business.

Hanyu Hideki asked, "What exactly is going on that requires you all to go out together? Everything was fine when we talked on the phone before you came."

"Just before you landed, the Sony Interactive Entertainment exhibition team arrived at the site. The president of Sony Interactive Entertainment, Ken Kutaragi, who led the team, accepted an interview with the media and said that the newly established Sony Interactive Entertainment had conducted in-depth cooperation with Nintendo and prepared a groundbreaking new product specifically for this exhibition.

When the media asked Kutaragi whether the new product was a console, he neither admitted nor denied it, but told everyone to look forward to Sony's media conference at the exhibition.

The person who answered Hideki Hanyu was Michael Katz.

At this E3 exhibition, Michael Katz was the first Genie Entertainment executive to arrive in Las Vegas.

Although the old man is quite old, he is full of energy and is very enthusiastic when working.

However, when talking about the in-depth cooperation between Sony and Nintendo, he showed a rare solemnity.

Seeing this, Hideki Hanyu knew clearly why Michael Katz was like this.

It’s definitely not because of Nintendo, because the Nintendo of this time and space is completely different from the gaming overlord in another time and space.

Under the attack of the time traveler Hideki Hanyu, the Nintendo of this time and space has already been defeated by Elf Entertainment. Whether it is games or consoles, it has been beaten in all aspects by Elf Entertainment.

So there is only one name that can make Michael Katz afraid.

Sony.

This is different from Sony, whose main business is gradually declining and half of the group's turnover depends on financial insurance business.

In today's era, the word "powerful" is not enough to describe Sony's strength.

In the field of consumer electronics, even after being suppressed by America, Sony is still the king among kings.

Nowadays, before the emergence of various digital audio players, Sony Walkman is almost a must-have product for music lovers.

In addition to consumer electronics, Sony also has very strong strength in the audio-visual entertainment industry, and this industry can complement electronic games very well, which has been verified by Elf Entertainment.

Sony, which has sufficient soft power, also has strong hardware research and development capabilities.

Therefore, even though they have now figured out that the cooperation between Sony and Nintendo only began in mid-last year, they still dare not underestimate Sony's achievements.

Just adding up these advantages is enough to give Sony a great start in the gaming field.

But Sony has an even more powerful advantage, which is its complete global marketing channels.

Sony's efforts in electronic consumer products over the years have enabled it to have a complete sales network across the globe.

In another time and space, the cooperation between Sony and Nintendo broke down, and the biggest driving force behind the independently developed PS1 console's success when it was launched was its sales network.

Sony's strong distribution capabilities allow it to get new products on shelves around the world at the fastest speed, while also allowing advertisements for new products to appear everywhere in the world.

The after-sales outlets in various locations can provide comprehensive services for the products.

Even today's Elf Entertainment is not as powerful as Sony in this regard.

The only advantage we have is our leading position in the field of game-related products.

Especially the specialty store 'Elf Show' that Hideki Hanyu opened many years ago is now not only all over the neon signs, but can also be seen all over the world.

Today's 'Elf Show' not only sells Elf Entertainment's consoles, games, electronic pets, and peripheral products, but also provides related after-sales services and is responsible for organizing various offline activities.

Therefore, 'Elf Show' is not only a store, but has also become a gathering place for fans of Elf entertainment products. While serving consumers, it has also greatly enhanced consumers' cohesion and loyalty to the brand.

But even so, compared with Sony, it can only be said that Genie Entertainment has its own advantages.

This is also why, after Ken Kutaragi finished his interview today, the senior executives of Elf Entertainment came to the airport to pick up Hideki Hanyu.

Faced with a newcomer like Sony, only Hideki Hanyu, the founder of Elf Entertainment, can give them confidence at the critical moment.

After sensing everyone's emotions, Hanyu Hideki spoke slowly.

“As the saying goes, if an enemy comes, we will fight him; if a flood comes, we will block it with earth.

It is an established fact that Sony and Nintendo are cooperating to enter the game market, and no matter how much we worry now, it will be useless.

So what we need to do now is to do our own thing well.

At the same time, we also have to believe in our efforts over such a long time. It has been nearly three years since our console was established, developed, and is now about to be announced to the public.

Is it possible that three years of preparation is not as good as Sony’s half-year results?

Is Sony going to make us surrender just because of its name?

You can look at Akina. Before she retired, she defeated Sony's singers countless times.

My Yunshang Entertainment has fought against Sony many times in the entertainment industry, but I have always been the winner.

Even though Sony now owns Columbia, I also own Universal Pictures.

Although it is not an industry, it at least proves one thing, that is, Sony is not an invincible monster. "

As Hanyu Hideki was talking, he suddenly mentioned Akina Nakamori who was sitting next to him.

Seeing all the big guys suddenly looking at him, even Akina Nakamori, who was once a public figure, felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

However, Hanyu Hideki did not stop talking.

“By now, I can probably guess why you’re so nervous.

Sony’s power is certainly intimidating, but it’s not Sony that you’re most worried about.”

Having said that, Hanyu Hideki reached out and knocked on the table.

"What you are worried about is actually our failure.

After three years of hard work, it is finally time to test the results.

Success or failure will be revealed next.

You are afraid that our efforts will be in vain, that our products will not be accepted by consumers, that we will disappoint those who like Elf Entertainment, and even more afraid that the good situation of Elf Entertainment will be ruined overnight.

The emergence of Sony has only magnified this concern.”

Everyone present was silent.

Because they all understood that Hideki Hanyu was right.

Elf Entertainment has grown to its current heights in a short period of time and has been successful all the time, so no one wants to see failure.

Especially at this critical moment, Sony's sudden entry inevitably changed the mentality of these experienced players.

At this time, Hideki Hanyu looked at the silent people.

"Ha ha……"

Suddenly, he laughed out loud, a hearty and confident laugh.

When several people were attracted by the smile, Hanyu Hideki spoke.

"If you don't believe in yourself, believe in me.

We will succeed, just as we have always done.

Because... I've never failed!"
