"Iwata-kun, take care. I won't send you off!" Seeing Iwata Satoru's gloomy figure leave, Arakawa Minoru, who had been acting dumb all this time, suddenly had a fierce and strange expression on his face.
"President, I just talked to the doctor. The doctor said that if the old president doesn't get angry, he might be able to hold on for a few more years and see the sun of the new century!" One of Arakawa Minoru's subordinates quietly appeared beside him and whispered.
"Did you hear the conversation between Iwata Satoru and the old man?" Arakawa Minoru asked calmly. There was no longer any trace of stupidity on his face.
"Yes, I heard it clearly. I have the complete recording and transcript with me!" The subordinate handed the documents and a tape to Arakawa Minoru.
"Tell me briefly. What did those two talk about?" Arakawa Minoru asked.
"At first, they talked about how Nintendo should deal with this crisis. Then, the old president asked Iwata Satoru how much Daqian's Thousand Machine Mode console was selling for. However, Iwata Satoru didn't tell the truth. He told the old president that the Daqian's Thousand Machine Mode console was selling for 299 USD. The old president said that although this price was 100 USD more than ours, it was still very competitive. He told Iwata Satoru to do everything he could to make the GBA console as good as the Thousand Machine Mode when it was released. At the same time, the price had to be 249 USD. Anyway, it had to be lower than the Thousand Machine Mode! "The subordinate reported.
"They talked about this for three hours and forty minutes?" Arakawa Minoru snorted. "What else did they talk about?"
"This …" The subordinate hesitated.
"Speak!" Arakawa Minoru suddenly roared.
"Yes. Then, the old leader took the initiative to talk about you. He said that you are a piece of rotten wood that cannot be carved. Although you are his son-in-law, you are completely different from him. He said that you are very stupid. You have never cared about video games, and you have never really liked video games. You have never treated video games as your life's work! "
"He said that you only know how to rely on all kinds of business techniques. You don't know how to make good products, control the console, and have a relatively closed product line. These are the real reasons why Nintendo can remain standing forever!"
"Nintendo will only be Nintendo when it has a firm grasp on things that other video game companies will never have. He even said that one day, you will make Nintendo go public. Nintendo will become the Nintendo of all major companies and even sell Nintendo as a product in exchange for the so-called biggest profits!"
"In the end, he said to Satoru Iwata that if you take over as the chairman, Nintendo will definitely be destroyed in your hands. Therefore, you can't accept the position of the next CEO of Nintendo. This position can only be taken by him, Satoru Iwata!" After the subordinate finished speaking, he carefully looked at Minoru Arakawa, afraid that Minoru Arakawa would vent his anger on him.
Unexpectedly, a smile appeared on Arakawa Minori's face. "As expected, the person who understands me the most in this world is still my father-in-law. He has seen through everything about me!"
.... . "Arakawa Minoru's expression changed." But I'm not wrong. Nintendo can't just make video game consoles forever. What's the difference between Nintendo and a salted fish? "
"We can only be like those large conglomerates in the United States, using all kinds of means to expand ourselves and turn Nintendo into a huge conglomerate. Only then can the Yamanouchi family become like the Mitsubishi family and the Morgan family, a conglomerate family that can stand for hundreds of years without falling, and forever be above the rest!" "That's the only way.
"Take Jia Yapeng for example. He doesn't only have video games. The Daqian Group's business has spread across all kinds of industries. It has also taken root in the electronics industry. In the future, the Daqian Group will be the new Morgan, the new Samsung, and the new Mitsubishi!"
"A 26-year-old rising star already has wealth that far exceeds the old man's lifetime of hard work. How can Nintendo continue to be so stupid?" Arakawa Minoru seemed to have been holding these words in his heart for a long time. Even now, he could still say them all in one breath.
After I finished speaking, Arakawa Minoru's emotions gradually calmed down. He picked up the transcript of the conversation and flipped to the last part. He saw that Yamanouchi was making arrangements for his funeral.
Yamanouchi even said that he would use around three years to make Arakawa Minoru's forces leave Nintendo. He was even willing to change the entire United States of Nintendo's personnel to support Iwata Satoru.
At the same time, he told Iwata Satoru to temporarily give up on fighting with the Daqian Group. He had to wait for the news to calm down. After one or two years, when the players gradually forgot about what happened today, he would fight with the Daqian Group again!
"The old man isn't muddle-headed. Although he has an ugly temper, when it's time to admit defeat, he still knows how to admit defeat!" After reading the last part of the conversation, Arakawa Minoru revealed a cold smile.
"President, what should we do next?" One of his subordinates asked in a low voice.
"Since Father-in-law is so concerned about the situation between us and the Daqian Group, how can we not let Father-in-law know about the real situation in the outside world!" Arakawa Minoru revealed a smile, "How about this, you go and make the arrangements …"

More than an hour later, Yamanouchi Minoru, who was lying on the hospital bed, was still thinking about the company's future. Suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted. Two young nurses came in with a lot of medicine.
"Are you Fusangpeople?" Yamanouchi Minoru saw that the two nurses had Asian faces, so he asked curiously.
"Yes, we are the only two Fusangpeople nurses in the hospital. The president said that it would be inconvenient for you to arrange for other nurses who only speak English. That's why he specially sent us to serve you!" One of the nurses said respectfully.
"Okay!" Yamanouchi Minoru nodded. Then, the nurse began to prepare the medicine to be injected. She explained, "Dear sir, this medicine has a certain sedative effect. You may fall asleep later. Everything is normal, so please don't misunderstand us!"
"You guys work hard!" Yamanouchi Minoru nodded. The nurse began to inject Yamanouchi Minoru. Soon, Yamanouchi Minoru felt drowsy.
"Arakawa Minoru, this bastard, is he trying to kill me with medicine?" The drowsy Yamanouchi Minoru suddenly had such a terrifying thought. His heart suddenly trembled, and then he realized that his body was indeed very sleepy, but there was nothing abnormal about it.
At this time, Yamanouchi Minoru, who had his eyes closed, heard the two nurses talking next to him.
"He's already asleep!" One of the nurses said.
"Don't worry, even if he's an adult, he will definitely fall asleep within ten minutes!" The other nurse replied.
"Then I'm relieved. Even if this patient is lying on the hospital bed, his aura is really amazing. It makes me a little scared. But is this person really the president of Nintendo? "
"I heard that he is. Why, do you admire this company?"
"No, my younger brother loves Nintendo. Every day, he talks to me about what Nintendo is like and what Nintendo games are like. His biggest dream in the future is to become a game developer and work at Nintendo. He wants to develop the best games possible!"
"That's great!"
"What's so great about it? But that was in the past. He changed his mind now!"
"He doesn't want to be a game developer anymore?"
"No, he just doesn't want to be a game developer for Nintendo. He wants to be a game developer for Daqian!" The nurse laughed.
