Tokyo Video Game Tycoon.

But Myron Case couldn't do that, not because he was considering the shareholders, but because he needed more money.

He wants to develop chips and expand into more fields.

He especially wants to re-enter the PC market, as he has always been unwilling to accept that the traditional PC market has no place for him.

He hopes to make a comeback in the PC market.

All of this requires him to improve his chip research and development; he doesn't want to become just an assembly plant.

But without money, he couldn't achieve any of these things.

So no matter how unwilling he was, he had to use video games.

Just as the manager was about to leave, Myron Case called him back: "By the way, didn't you guys suggest going to negotiate with Surrey Electronics to invite them to bring their game products to our phones? How's the progress?"

"Well... our people are still negotiating with Surui Electronics."

Myron Case asked in confusion, "Are they still negotiating? Have they made some unreasonable demands?"

"No, they've just been keeping our people waiting. Our people have gone to Su Rui Electronics many times, but almost every time their senior management is busy and doesn't intend to meet with our people."

“They don’t want to cooperate with us.” Myron Case narrowed his eyes. “Do you know the specific reasons?”

The manager said cautiously, "It's...it's not clear yet."

Myron Case scrutinized the manager with a sharp gaze, which immediately made the mid-to-senior level manager break out in a sweat.

However, Myron Case didn't say much, but waved his hand and said, "You can go now, it's nothing. Continue to follow up on the negotiations with Surrey Electronics. We can offer more preferential treatment in terms of revenue sharing, just like Facebook and Youxing Electronic Entertainment."

"Okay, I know."

……

In the Surrey Electronics Building in Tokyo, Japan, three or five Westerners stood out.

They sat casually in the lobby lounge chatting, occasionally letting out a burst of laughter.

"President, those guys from Mickford are here again."

As Hayakawa Ueto's assistant, I am responsible for all daily affairs. Recently, a group of uninvited guests have arrived.

They initially demanded that Surui Electronics cooperate with them in a very arrogant manner, but Surui Electronics refused without hesitation.

However, the other party didn't seem to care and kept coming over to ask for cooperation, showing no signs of getting annoyed.

For these people who are sent abroad, they actually treat this place more as a vacation spot. They don't mind staying a few more days, and their wages are still paid.

Hayakawa Ueto said with a slightly mocking expression, "Here we go again? You really never stop bothering me."

Chapter 789 Sympathy

789

"President, I think we should kick all these people out. They're really too annoying."

Hayakawa Ueto's assistant couldn't help but say that she also disliked these guys who seemed very arrogant.

In the eyes of these people, Surui Electronics should be considered a defeated party.

With its superior product quality, Mikef successfully seized the handheld console market from Surrey Electronics, leaving almost nothing behind. This directly led to the complete collapse of Surrey Electronics' handheld console product line that year. In the end, thanks to the efforts of Hayakawa Ueto, the game division was preserved, but the handheld console product line was inevitably abandoned in the end.

Mike Fauci is the culprit.

This guy is even more despicable than Yusei Electronic Entertainment.

Youxing Electronic Entertainment competes with Surui Electronics by relying on the high quality of its games.

However, Mikelford forcibly dominated the gaming market through another area, which is really hard to accept.

Even Hayakawa Ueto didn't have a good impression of Mikelford, let alone want to cooperate with them.

Hayakawa Ueto shook his head: "That would seem too impulsive. We are, after all, a large international corporation. There's no need to fuss over such a small matter. However, they are indeed very difficult to deal with, and they have been insisting on cooperating with us."

The female assistant couldn't help but sneer and said, "These guys are really dreaming. We've already been ripped off by these people, and they still want to come and cooperate with us. I really don't know what they're thinking."

Hayakawa Ueto said, "What else could it be? It must be related to interests. Only interests could drive them to go to such lengths."

The assistant asked curiously, "President, if we disregard the relationship with Mikeford, would you consider cooperating with them?"

Hayakawa Ueto shook his head: "No, not either."

"why?"

"Because we're not bad, and what kind of company are we?"

The assistant thought for a moment and then replied, "It's a comprehensive electronics giant."

Hayakawa Ueto smiled: "So, since we are a comprehensive electronics giant, why do we need to cooperate with others?"

"So, president, you mean..."

Hayakawa Ueto looked out the window: "If it weren't for these people from Mikefu coming here, I wouldn't have even realized this market existed. It was only after they came that I discovered there was such a large market waiting to be explored. I should thank them."

Then Hayakawa Ueto turned around and said, "Since smartphones and handheld games conflict with each other, why don't we develop them together? With our capabilities, we can completely develop our own phones, develop our own games, and even publish our own games. We are probably one of the few companies in the world with a complete industry chain. Why not take advantage of that?"

The assistant's eyes gradually widened.

Hayakawa Ueto's smile grew brighter and brighter.

In fact, the arrival of the people from Mikefu only served as a slight reminder to Hayakawa Ueto, making him realize the relationship between smartphones and video games.

Then, he was inspired by the collaboration between Star Entertainment and Facebook.

Why can't I also make smartphones and video games?

Moreover, looking at the game content of Candy Crush Saga, Hayakawa Ueto, who has some experience in game development, naturally knows that the development difficulty of this kind of game is not high.

I can develop similar game products myself, and wouldn't it be better to keep all the profits to myself than to cooperate with Mikefu?

Of course, there is an even more important point: Mikef almost wiped out his own gaming business, and Surrey Electronics had a grudge against Mikef first.

From any perspective, it is impossible for Hayakawa Ueto to cooperate with Mickford.

Even if they were to collaborate with Yusei Electronics Entertainment, it would be impossible for them to collaborate with Mickford...

Oh right, perhaps... collaborating with Yusei Electronic Entertainment is also a good idea.

Developing mobile phones and games independently may not necessarily lead to success.

However, he discovered that no one who collaborated with Yuxing Electronic Entertainment ever failed.

The relationship between myself and Yuxing Electronic Entertainment is very delicate; we are both rivals and partners.

To this day, Surui Electronics is still in the process of purchasing Unreal Engine.

Surui Electronics is also Unreal Engine's largest customer.

Therefore, the relationship between the two sides is much better than that in Mickford.

If we really need to find a partner, Yuxing Electronic Entertainment would be a good choice.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this matter had potential.

Hmm, I might really consider looking into Yuxing Electronic Entertainment after some time.

"President, since you've already decided to do this yourself, can't we just refuse them directly?"

"Of course not, because that would make Mikeford wary of us. Right now, Mikeford is still keeping an eye on Yuxing Electronic Entertainment. Let Yuxing Electronic Entertainment divert our attention a bit, and we'll stay in the shadows for now."

Hayakawa Ueto has already made his plans.

Suri Electronics' mobile phone division is now about halfway through its development, but it is far from being able to compete with Mikefu. Therefore, it is best to hold back and not make an excessive show of its capabilities.

So the people from Mikefu who came to negotiate are still waiting.

People in Mike will certainly suspect Suri Electronics' motives, but at first they will probably guess that Suri Electronics has a grudge against Mike, rather than that Suri Electronics wants to build its own complete industry chain. By the time Mike realizes what's going on, they will have developed enough, and then they will give Mike a surprise attack.

With Star Entertainment and Facebook as one king, and Mikel F.C. as another, a three-way battle for supremacy would surely be more exciting than a two-way battle.

Hayakawa Ueto instructed his assistant: "Make sure everyone under you keeps the company's future developments strictly confidential. Absolutely no information can be leaked. If even a little is revealed, we'll face a huge compensation of tens of millions of dollars. We must keep our secrets hidden. As for those people from Mickford, just leave them hanging. If they really can't stand it, send a manager with little influence to entangle them. In short, confuse them and make sure they don't discover our motives."

After his assistant left, Hayakawa Ueto returned to his seat and took out a cell phone.

And that phone was none other than a Facebook phone.

Hayakawa Ueto looked at the phone with undisguised admiration in his eyes: "This Takeyusei is really a genius. Myron Case must have a real headache competing with someone like him."

Hayakawa Ueto couldn't help but recall the most intense era of competition with Yusei Electronic Entertainment.

No matter how much he exerted his absolute power as an electronics giant, he couldn't take away even a fraction of the game market from Yusei Electronics Entertainment. Now, however, his opponent had changed to Myron Case, and Hayakawa Ueto was starting to feel a little sorry for Myron Case's plight.

Chapter 790 Core Crisis

790

Yuxing Electronic Entertainment's mobile game division is now going all out.

They have the smallest number of people of all the development teams, and even now there are only a little over 500.

But their energy is the most abundant.

On the one hand, this is a newly established department, and almost all of its employees are young people in their early twenties. On the other hand, they also want to prove themselves and show that their mobile game department is no worse than other game development teams.

In this environment, the development of levels for Candy Crush Saga went very smoothly. In the later stages, Bamboo Star didn't even need to pay much attention to it anymore. They were able to develop all sorts of new gameplay on their own, which can be said to have made the match-3 game incredibly innovative.

Seeing this, Zhu Youxing felt reassured and let the mobile game department do their thing.

Mobile games are still in a stage of development.

In the original world, it seems that every now and then a super hit game is born, as if this game can be successful immediately as soon as it is developed.

But in reality, these games just appeared at the right time.

These games have risen to prominence only because of the groundwork laid by predecessors.

Zhu Youxing currently has several hit games in hand, but he believes the timing isn't quite right yet and they need to wait a bit longer. Until then, he'll let the mobile game department work on their own.

In any case, thanks to Candy Crush Saga, this department at least no longer has to worry about losses.

Since the mobile game division no longer needs much attention in the short term, it's time to focus on our main business: the home console market.

The development of the switch has entered the chip negotiation stage.

The company's professionals have been in discussions with multiple chip manufacturers for a long time.
