Chapter 103 Acquisition of PC-E and HUDSON
Okamura Hideki sat in a private room, he did not angrily scold Tsujimoto Kenzo, nor did he insist on seeing this arcade machine that was twice as powerful as theirs.
Seeing Liu Zhiyuan and the others leaving the private room, he wanted to run to Nintendo and Sega for a moment, but it was only for a moment. But there is a market worth tens of billions of dollars! He missed Konami just like that.
Liu Zhiyuan and others did not know that Okamura Hideki was doing psychological activities in the private room. They had already arrived at a research and development office of Capcom.
"Both presidents, this is what I call the most powerful arcade machine."
Kenzo Tsujimoto said to an open arcade machine.
Norio Ohga and Jerry Liu are not amateurs. Just from the game screen, you can tell that Kenzo Tsujimoto is telling the truth. Then a Capcom technician explained the functions of CPS1.
"Not finished?"
Norio Ohga frowned when he heard this.
Although Liu Zhiyuan knew in his heart that CPS1 would be developed this year, he did not know to what extent.
"President Tsujimoto, I need an exact time. If it takes too long, DDR is DanceDanceRevolution, and its publicity plan needs to be changed."
Kenzo Tsujimoto is more anxious than anyone else to launch the dance machine as soon as possible. This is his opportunity for Capcom to stand on the arcade throne.
"Two months at the latest, CPS1 has actually been completed and is now in the final debugging stage."
Liu Zhiyuan nodded and looked at Norio Ohga.
"President Ohga, I think 2 months is still enough to wait. No matter what, I will not leave Sega until Might and Magic is officially released. What do you think?"
"Okay, then President Tsujimoto please focus on the progress of CPS1. We will officially start developing DDR in two months."
As for DDR's review, he is not stupid enough to face criticism of such a transformative game.
"must."
After returning to the hotel from Capcom's research institute, Liu Zhiyuan contacted the president of HUDSON and agreed to discuss the merger the next day.
HUDSON couldn't bear it anymore. Faced with the pressure from MD and Nintendo's policy, Japan Electric chose to terminate the research and development of PC-E. Under the influence of Liu Zhiyuan, this console, which was not long-lived, was declared dead in less than a year.
.
"President Liu."
Aoi Sasaki saw Liu Zhiyuan coming in, stood up and said hello, but the smile on his face was very unnatural. After all, he was still the Nintendo Five, the veteran of the gaming industry, and now he is very likely to be replaced by a company that was founded less than a year ago.
Takeovers.
"This is a member of the board of directors of Dongying Electric, director Toichiro Yamamoto."
Toichiro Yamamoto sat on a chair and nodded to Liu Zhiyuan with an indifferent expression.
When everyone was in place, Toichiro Yamamoto spoke directly.
"I heard that President Liu is interested in the PC-E production line? The total cost of this production line is US$570 million. I wonder how much money President Liu wants to spend?"
Why don't you just go straight to the topic without talking about anything else?
As soon as Liu Zhiyuan heard this, he asked him for a quote and stopped trying.
"$100 million."
Toichiro Yamamoto sneered.
"President Liu, although PC-E production has been terminated, it does not mean that this production line is scrapped. If this is President Liu's lowest price, then there is no need for us to waste time."
Liu Zhiyuan ignored Yamamoto Toichiro's ridicule, since you are willing to talk more freely, then come.
"But, except for me, no one will buy the PC-E production line, right? It's a buyer's market now."
Will there be any plans to acquire the PC-E production line now? Except for him, Jerry Liu, Nintendo has no shortage of production lines, and the same goes for Sega.
Sony's production lines can't be used all by themselves, so they rent them out in various ways.
Except for a few top third parties that have their own production lines, other third parties have no such thing at all. A production line costs hundreds of millions of dollars, which they simply cannot afford.
This is a production line that is destined to be sold at a low price. Why the hell do you still treat it like a treasure? If it wasn’t for the purpose of transforming disks and optical discs in the future, you would have died in your hands.
Looking at Toichiro Yamamoto with a cold face, Liu Zhiyuan smiled, with a hint of sarcasm in his smile.
"I heard that Japan's economy has been very volatile recently. If the economy collapses, I will only be able to provide 10 million US dollars for this production line."
Ridiculing, who wouldn't be the same? He didn't believe that Japan Electric, a large company, could not detect the signs of an economic crisis. In fact, in Japan's economic crisis in 1990, all the victims were small companies under large companies.
If you don’t believe me, look at Japan’s old companies. How many have fallen? As far as the game industry is concerned, has Nintendo, the first party, fallen? Yamauchi Hiroshi was revolted by his subordinates and didn’t fall. Those who relied on Nintendo fell.
third party.
Not only did Sega not fail, but it also took advantage of this economic crisis to make a lot of money in Europe and the United States. Who failed? The third party that relied on Sega failed.
Capitalists have no sympathy. Since the losses are already doomed, they should save themselves as much as possible. Those industry giants will not take care of their subordinates at this time, but will graft their losses onto them, so those small businesses will
It's unclear how he died.
After hearing Liu Zhiyuan's words, Yamamoto Toichiro's face became a little gloomy.
"President Liu is very concerned about Japan's economy?"
Liu Zhiyuan shrugged his shoulders.
"I am a person with a strong sense of crisis, and I am afraid of death for some reason."
Toichiro Yamamoto laughed a few times and waved to the assistant next to him to hand a contract to Liu Zhiyuan.
"$100 million, sign, and the production line is yours."
Dongying Electric will definitely investigate the Han Dynasty's financial situation, which is why Liu Zhiyuan directly stated his psychological bottom price at first.
Dongying Electric is so big that it doesn't care about this production line at all. He has never heard of who took away this production line in later generations. The most likely thing is that it will rot in their hands.
But big companies often care about face, especially Toichiro Yamamoto’s style. His first sentence had only one purpose, which was to regain face from Liu Zhiyuan.
The failure of PC-E was due to Liu Zhiyuan. If his original quotation was lower than what Toichiro Yamamoto wanted, the production line would probably have died in the hands of Japan Electric.
100 million US dollars is the maximum liquidity that the Han Dynasty can use on its books. Any more and the Han Dynasty will have problems. Of course, Liu Zhiyuan provided this fund.
No one really knows the specific funds of the Han Dynasty except him and Li Huagui, unless he can invade Huaxia's financial department.
As soon as Liu Zhiyuan took over the contract, Toichiro Yamamoto stood up and walked out of the conference room, without even looking at Liu Zhiyuan in the process.
Aoi Sasaki said with a somewhat embarrassed smile.
"Director Yamamoto has important matters, so..."
Liu Zhiyuan looked at the contract and interrupted Aoi Sasaki.
"The person in charge of PC-E is probably Director Yamamoto. I can understand his mood. I'm not angry. After all, I have a share of the credit for PC-E's failure."
"However, President Qingjing, from the moment I sign my signature, you will be a member of the Han Dynasty. Please consider your position clearly next time you speak."
It's strange that Liu Zhiyuan is not angry, anyone who is treated like this will feel angry.
As for Aoi Sasaki's feelings, he doesn't care. The 100 million US dollars includes HUDSON, a company with more than 1 billion US dollars. It has shrunk to this extent in just one year. Although there are his reasons, Aoi Sasaki's ability
That's it.
As long as Takahashi Takahashi's MapleStory still has the rights to Gold Digger and Bomberman, HUDSON will no longer matter. There must be very few members of the former Nintendo Five left at this company.
