From Tajiri's point of view, Boss Jia's choice was unquestionable.
He was the creator of Pokemon, the world's most popular game. Morimoto Shigeki was just a piece of trash that he secretly added into the game. How could such a piece of trash be compared to Tajiri?
Therefore, Boss Jia's choice was without any hesitation. How could he let go of a gaming genius like him?
Just as Tajiri was thinking about this, Boss Jia spoke. He looked at Tajiri and said, "I can take Morimoto Shigeki's position as the vice president of Team Wang. I can also demote Morimoto Shigeki's men and pull your men back!"
Boss Jia's words made Morimoto Shigeki lower his head. Morimoto Shigeki knew that there was no problem in choosing between Tajiri, the genius, and Morimoto Shigeki, the idiot.
"Okay!" Tajiri nodded and put on a smile again. Then, Boss Jia continued, "However, you have to give me a military order. Within the next two years, you have to complete the development of the new generation of Pokemon on the PS platform, PC platform, and PS platform. You have to come up with a finished product. After a lot of testing, you have to ensure that there are no mistakes. At the same time, you have to ensure that the finished product is of high quality!"
"If you can't achieve this goal, you will have to give up all your shares in Team Rocket!"
"What?!" Tajiri raised his head and glared at Jia Yapeng. "Mr. Jia, if you want to take away my shares, just say it. Don't use such despicable means!"
"Am I despicable?" Boss Jia glanced at Tajiri. "Pokemon Kim Silver has only been developed for two years and Morimoto Shigeki has already developed six versions for six platforms. Now, you only need to develop a product for three platforms. How am I harsh on you? This is something that has been proven to be achievable, isn't it? "
"Do you think that you're inferior to Morimoto Shigeki?"
Boss Jia's question made Tomoaki Tajiri speechless. However, he quickly regained his composure and said, "Morimoto Shigeki was able to achieve his goal because he had a group of people working for him. If you fire all these people, where am I going to find more people to do this in such a short time? "
"Oh," Boss Jia replied and stopped talking. At that moment, Tajiri realized what he had just said. His face turned even uglier.
"Give me three years, and I will complete your mission!" Tajiri said.
"Three years. Do you know how many Pokemon players we'll lose and how much profit we'll lose in three years?" Boss Jia snorted. "Only two years, not a day more!"
"Then fire me. I quit!" Tajiri Tomoaki said angrily.
"As you wish!" Boss Jia accepted Tajiri's resignation letter without hesitation. Then, he said to Morimoto Shigeki, "From now on, you're the president of Rocket Team!"
"Ah!" Morimoto Shigeki was stunned.
"As for you, Mr. Tajiri, I'm very honored to hire you as the honorary president of Rocket Team. You can still work in the company and voice your opinions. You can also take vacations and travel as you wish. Every year, you will receive your share of dividends. You can enjoy your life!" Boss Jia said.
"You're really firing me!" Tajiri was stunned as he looked at Jia Yapeng.
"I'm not firing you. Tajirai-kun is still a part of the company!" Boss Jia said coldly. "Tajirai-kun, since we've worked together, don't make things difficult for us!"
"Difficult?" Tajiri was so angry that he laughed. "Jia Yapeng, do you think I'll still stay in the company and create games for you? You're dreaming. You'll regret it! "
"If you fire me today, we'll never be friends. Don't expect me to come up with any ideas for the company. I'll make you regret your decision today!"
"Since I can create Pokemon, I can come up with better works to destroy him!" Tajiri roared.
"Go ahead!" Boss Jia cracked his neck and said, "But Tajirai-kun, I have to remind you of one thing. According to the contract we signed, after I buy Rocket Team, you have to stay in Rocket Team forever. If you leave, the company will buy back your 10% shares!"
"If you want to work in another game company, please hand over your 10% shares!"
"You want it? I don't care!" Tajiri said coldly. Then, he strode out of the office.
"Chairman, the company can't do without President Tanaka!" Morimoto Shigeki said to Boss Jia anxiously.
"No, the company will be better off without him!" Boss Jia sneered. In his previous life, Tajiri was also like this. After creating Pokemon, this successful game designer didn't have any other famous works.
Taking 25 days off a month was indeed something Tajiri Masashi would do. Starting from the third generation of Pokemon, Tajiri Masashi was basically a producer in name only. That was why the later Pokemon became worse and worse. In the end, he even created something called Extreme Evolution. It was simply boring to the extreme.
It was good that he left. The Great Qian World was not a place for him to retire.
After that, Tajiri Masashi directly returned to Fusang. A few days later, Tajiri Masashi's lawyer represented Tajiri Masashi to negotiate with the company. In the end, the company used 500 million USD to buy Tajiri Masashi's 10% shares in the Rocket Team. Both parties parted ways.
This news caused a huge uproar in the gaming industry. Everyone was shocked by the departure of one of the creators of Pokemon. They didn't know how Pokemon would develop in the future.
On the other hand, Nintendo was like a treasure. It was said that Yamauchi Masashi, who was lying on the hospital bed, actually got up from his bed and personally persuaded Tajiri Masashi to join Nintendo. Both parties were going to develop the most interesting game together.
Later on, when Tajiri was interviewed by a reporter, he vowed that he would create a spiritual sequel that would surpass Pokemon on the Nintendo Entertainment System, which was an even better platform!
That's right, Tajiri Masashi was the creator of Pokemon. Although the game he created after that couldn't be called Pokemon anymore, and couldn't even use any of the images in Pokemon, the spiritual sequel was not protected by copyright.
Anyway, in a short period of time, the gaming industry was stirred up. Everyone was very optimistic about Nintendo. The premise was that they had to create a GBA game quickly.
