Chapter 353 Break

"Don't do this."

Yamauchi Hiroshi immediately took back his emphasis on Ken Kutaraki. Ken Kutaraki now is not the hero he likes, but his opponent, or in other words, the enemy.

However, to be honest, Hiroshi Yamauchi did have it. If Ken Kutaraki was willing to join Nintendo, he would have entrusted him with important tasks, and even in the future, when he retired, he would have entrusted him with Nintendo. This is also the first time he had the idea of ​​Nintendo's heir. It has been widely rumored in the outside world that neither his son-in-law Miyake or Miyamoto Shigeru had such an idea.

It is true that Arakawa is a very outstanding businessman, but it is not enough to lead a game company to strive for greatness with just a businessman. In addition to being an excellent businessman, Arakawa is also passionate about this industry.

In Mi Arakawa's eyes, games are just a commodity, and games can make money nowadays, so he is more eager to do this. If games cannot make money, he may not be so concerned about this thing that only products are in his eyes. This is also the reason why Hiroshi Yamauchi is dissatisfied with his son-in-law, and it is too utilitarian.

This is not possible in the gaming industry.

As for Shigeru Miyamoto, Hiroshi Yamauchi shook his head even more. If it were just R&D, he would be the best candidate, but it would be useless to support Nintendo and rely solely on R&D.

On the contrary, Ken Kuraki, especially since they officially collaborated with Sony, some things he saw have increasingly shown that he is the most suitable successor for Nintendo, but unfortunately, he is Sony's person and does not seem to have any interest in joining Nintendo.

Ken Kutaraki straightened up, and he still looked at Hiroshi Yamauchi with a smile on his face, waiting for Hiroshi Yamauchi to say something. In fact, the other party didn't need to say something. He also knew what Hiroshi Yamauchi wanted to do for him. He had already looked at him nine times before. This was the tenth time. He could even recite what the other party wanted to say, but he was still so respectful. Because he knew that it was not the time to completely turn against Nintendo.

"What the hell do you want to do?"

This time, Yamauchi Hiroshi said the first sentence without any politeness, even full of accusations.

Ken Kutaraki's expression changed when he heard this. He did not expect that Hiroshi Yamauchi would not plan to do it slowly as usual today. Instead, he would have to discuss the matter with himself at the beginning, but he could not discuss the matter with the other party.

"Why did the president say this?"

Ken Kutaraki pretended not to know, and a look of confusion appeared on his face.

"hehe."

Yamauchi Hiro sneered a few times. Then he took out a folder from the table quietly and threw it in front of Ken Kutaraki, and continued to say in a cold tone: "Then, Mr. Kuta. Just look at this."

Kutaraki Ken had no choice. He knew that this time, Hiroshi Yamauchi might really be playing real, but did he not consider the situation that Nintendo had to face after a complete fall in love with him? As a last resort, Kutaraki Ken still picked up the folder that Hiroshi Yamauchi threw over. In fact, before reading it, he knew what was written in it.

This is not a secret in the industry. In fact, for Nintendo, which has a deep foundation in the industry, no matter how secret its previous actions are, there is actually no way to hide in front of these people with deep foundations.

Sure enough, Ken Kutaraki was immediately startled by the information recorded on it as soon as he opened the folder. He knew that he could not hide the fact that he had attracted third-party development companies, but he never expected that Nintendo would investigate this matter so carefully, and even blocked his excuses for making excuses.

"Do you have any explanation?"

Yamauchi's anger was evidently ejaculated. He lowered his voice, but no one could hear it. The anger in his tone could burst out at any time.

Ken Kutaraki closed his eyes slightly, and in a flash, he opened it again, and then sighed as if nothing had happened. He just said in a faint tone: "President Yamauchi, I am not very familiar with these things. This may be an internal matter of the headquarters. According to regulations, I have no right to inquire about it..."

"Bang!"

Before long, Taraki Ken finished speaking, Yamauchi Hiro suddenly stood up and left a crystal ashtray on the table on the ground, falling to the fans. He looked at Taraki Ken with his emotions-free eyes and said coldly: "I don't care what you explain. Our agreement has clearly stipulated this matter before. You are responsible for hardware development. We assist, and we are responsible for game development. Moreover, we have also agreed to give you 60% of the right to review games. However, the right to review games is not the right to develop games."

Ken Kutaraki was silent for a long time before saying: "President Yamauchi, please be honest. I think the right to review the game in the agreement represents the right to independently develop games on PS. There is no contradiction between the two."

"snort."

After hearing this from Ken Kutaraki, Yamauchi just snorted coldly. He was still looking at Ken Kutaraki with cold eyes, and he had no explanation for a long time.

Ken Kutaraki didn't speak, and both sides were silent on their own.

After ten minutes of a long time, Yamauchi Hiroshi said, "Is this your opinion, or Sony?"

Hearing this question from Yamauchi Hiroshi, Ken Kutaraki hesitated for a moment. He pursed his lips vigorously, as if he was weighing something. After twenty or thirty seconds, he made a decision. He said in a resolute tone: "This is my opinion, and it is also Sony's opinion."

Hearing Ken Kutaraki's answer, Hiro Yamauchi snorted disdainfully: "Can you represent Sony?"

When Kutaraki faced this unceremonious question from Hiroshi Yamauchi, he did not give in at all and said in a humble and unrestrained manner: "Yes, I can represent Sony in this matter. This is the right given to me by Mr. Nobuo Oga. He supports any decision I made in cooperation with you, even..." Speaking of this, Kutaraki Ken paused for a moment before continuing to speak.

“…even if it is to terminate our cooperation agreement.”

"Okay! OK! OK!"

Hearing Kutaraki Ken's answer, Hiro Yamauchi laughed instead of anger. He said three good words in a row, and then reexamined it with a strange look. Kutaraki Ken stood in front of him, the more he looked at him, the more he felt that the other party was the most suitable person to take over Nintendo. Unfortunately...

With a sigh again, Yamauchi Hiroshi waved his hand and let Ken Kutaraki go out.

Then he hid alone in the chair, looking at the ceiling with no eyes. He knew that the decision he was about to make would inevitably have a huge impact on Nintendo.

He slowly closed his eyes, he needed enough confidence to make this decision.

To be honest, he really may not lose this time.

Because Sony breached the contract first and announced that he would terminate the contract with the other party, the breach of contract would definitely not be himself. However, if he did this, could he be able to release the new console as soon as possible? This is the most important question. If he broke up with Sony and the plan to release the new console as soon as possible is stranded, it would be too much of a loss.

After all, only by allowing the new console to be released as soon as possible can the current dilemma be improved.

After thinking for ten minutes, Hiroshi Yamauchi was not sure that if he really fought this lawsuit with Sony, he would definitely win. However, in extraordinary times, he had to use extraordinary means to stop and suffer the chaos... At this time, Hiroshi Yamauchi couldn't help but remember that when he just left school and took over Nintendo's company, the difficulties he had to face were ten times more difficult than now.

Didn’t you survive it?

Then that's it.

Yamauchi Hiro opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly, as if he had returned to his usual fearless aura. He reached out to pick up the receiver of the phone and skillfully dialed a number with his fingers.

When the phone dialed, Yamauchi Hiroshi said to the receiver without hesitation: "A press conference is held, and I want to announce a very important news... Yes, I will attend in person, and I will announce it myself, well, the location is set at Nintendo's headquarters, as soon as possible, the faster the better..."

the next day.

Jester listened to the news that Tamahiko Yoshiro had just told him in the receiver, and he seemed to have heard the biggest joke in the world.

Although he had seen the rift between Nintendo and Sony before, given that the cooperation between the two parties is at the most critical stage, he never expected that such a huge change would occur at such a critical moment. This made Jester unable to help but sigh that Mr. Hiroshi Yamauchi is still really steel.

Just earlier today, the head of Nintendo, Yamauchi Hiroshi, who has been in charge of Nintendo for more than 40 years, held a press conference at the headquarters of Nintendo in Kyoto, because the press conference stated in advance that President Yamauchi will attend the press conference in person, and major media that had already smelled some unusual smells before also attended.

Such as the Asahi Shimbun and Yomiuri Shimbun, one of the top Japanese newspapers, naturally, will not be lacking.

It was at this press conference that Yamauchi Hiroshi left the scene after only one announcement, and the announcement at the scene caused an uproar at the first time.
