"Since that is the case, then we will give up on recruiting the Daqian!" Norio Ohga said after hearing Nobuyuki Ide's report. 1 billion USD for the Daqian's ransom. How can Sony pay for the Daqian's ransom?
"Sigh …" Nobuyuki Idei sighed. He had mixed feelings because he had a vague idea that Sony was willing to pay the 1 billion USD penalty for Da Qian in order to get the Pokemon over.
But Nobuyuki Ide also knows that the President and the board of directors will not agree to such conditions. He sighed. He felt that Sony had lost their trump card in the video game war.
"President, I know that the Daqian is developing other games. Maybe we can cooperate with the Daqian in other games and bring in other Daqian games to our platform. This way, we will have connections with the Daqian, and we can use Pokemon in the future.
"Ok!" Norio Ohga nodded. "You can talk to the Daqian about this."
"Can you give the Daqian the same privileges as the other six King Kong?" Nobuyuki Ide asked.
"That's not necessary. Other than Pokemon, the Daqian does not have any other games. They are not qualified to receive the same privileges as the other six King Kong. If they do, the other six King Kong will not be happy! "Norio Ohga rejected. Nobuyuki Ide sighed again.
If Norio Ohga does not give the Daqian the same privileges as the other six King Kong, the Daqian will not join Sony.
The reason was simple. The Daqian cannot afford to lose face. Pokemon is the second most popular game in the world, and none of the six King Kong games are in the top 5. Four of the six King Kong games are not even in the top 10.
If the Daqian is treated worse than the other six King Kong, then the Daqian will feel humiliated.
That's right, the so-called Six Great King Kong refers to the six large game manufacturers under Nintendo. Their games basically represent all the popular games in Japan.
These six companies are the earliest video game companies to join Nintendo. They are:
[Hudson]: They had developed Bomberman, Adventure Island, and other classic games. They are very good at hardware and are also a video game company. They even developed their own operating system.
[Namco]: They had developed Little Bee, Pac-Man, Teppan Formation, and Tekken. This is the company that went against Tajiri in the past. This company has strong arcade production capabilities. It is worth mentioning that after 2000, Namco and Bandai merged.
[Square]: This company is very interesting. other companies have more or less classic games. But this company only has one classic game, and that is Final Fantasy. What's more, he was so determined to stick to Final Fantasy. It was truly admirable.
[Enix]: Forever the hero fights the evil dragon. Like Square, it is deeply rooted in a game. These two companies were really similar. Not only were they rooted in the same game, but both games were also the most traditional RPGs. Even the names of the two companies looked similar. They both had the same flavor.
Later on, the two companies felt that they were too similar to each other, so they simply merged together and became Square Enix.
That's right, the names of the two companies were crudely put together.
[Konami]: They have Super Cobra, Contra, Heartbeat Memories, Devil's Den, Metal Gear, Silent Hill, and Live Soccer. Oh right, the dancing carpet was also invented by Konami. It is worth mentioning that Yu-Gi-Oh and Fantasy Water Margin were also created by Konami. Therefore, Konami and the Daqian are fated.
[Capcom]: Street Fighter, Locke, Resident Evil, Devil's Cry, Monster Hunter, Reversal Referee.
(Ps: In the history of Nintendo, Square and Enix are not part of the Six Great Nintendo companies. They are just two small companies. This is modified for the storyline.)
These six companies are basically the third party of Fusang's console games. These companies had been secretly pulled together by Sony.
However, even with the statements of these six companies, Nobuyuki Idei was still full of uneasiness, because the sales of these six companies combined were not as high as the sales of Nintendo's own games. What's worse was that none of these six companies had a game like Super Mario or Tetris that could dominate the market.
This is equivalent to suppressing the luck of the game.
Originally, if he could rope in Pokemon, he would have this luck suppressing game. However, he did not expect Nintendo to be so cunning. They actually signed a contract with Da Qian that was as high as one billion USD. There was no other way.
That's why Idei wants to build a good relationship with the Daqian. This way, he will not let go of any opportunities to rope in the Daqian. He still has a chance to get Pokemon in the future.
Of course, the Daqian must not know what Sony did in the past. Unfortunately, Norio Ohga rejected Idei's offer.
Nobuyuki Idei decided to give up on negotiating with Da Qian. Otherwise, if Da Qian suddenly realized that he couldn't even get the same treatment as the Six Great Guardian Deities, he was afraid that there would be a grudge between them.
Nobuhiko Idei's consideration was very good. However, what he didn't expect was that after he made the call, Boss Jia called Nintendo and directly said that he was looking for Yamauchi Hiroshi.
Boss Jia was now a well-known figure in Nintendo. Even with Nintendo's arrogance, they didn't dare to neglect Boss Jia. Yamauchi Hiroshi even said that if there were any calls from Da Qian, they could just transfer it to him.
That's why Boss Jia managed to contact Nintendo immediately.
"Sony just called me. They hope that I can join their third party and bring the Pokemon over!" As soon as the call was put through, Boss Jia did not try to hide anything. He did not try to hide anything, but went straight to the point.
"Hmmm … these bastards …" Yamauchi was shocked by Boss Jia's straightforwardness. Sony is too loyal!
In fact, Nintendo already knew about Sony's intention to enter the video game console industry. After all, as a giant in the video game industry, it's impossible for them not to know about it.
That's why Yamauchi was not shocked when he heard about this. He had already guessed this.
Sony had never developed any games before and had nothing to do with video games. This bastard wants to enter the video game industry and challenge Nintendo's position as the number one video game console. Does he think he can compete with Nintendo just because he has a video game console?
Although Sony was ten times bigger than Nintendo, Yamauchi is not afraid. No matter who it is, when they enter the video game industry, they will have to kneel before Nintendo.
At the same time, Yamauchi knows that if Sony wants to fight with him, the games on his console are crucial. Only with the support of enough third party video game manufacturers will Sony have the qualifications to fight.
Yamauchi had already guessed that Sony will secretly contact his third party video game manufacturers and offer them benefits to get them to join Sony's camp. All of these were within Yamauchi's expectations.
The only thing Yamauchi did not expect was that the first person to call him to express his loyalty was Daqian's Jia Yapeng. Yamauchi sighed. Although he and Jia Yapeng had some unpleasant past, they were now on the same team. Yamauchi must treat the Daqian better!
"Thank you, Mr. Jia. Please believe that in the video game industry, Nintendo will always be the king!" Yamauchi said proudly. Boss Jia complimented Yamauchi and hung up the phone.
"Sony's men will not only contact Da Qian's family. Later, the 6 King Kong will call me!" Yamauchi said confidently.
"Hmmm. This will be interesting!" Boss Jia, who hung up the phone, licked his lips. He looked like a poisonous snake.
