Horrible! Actually playing this kind of game!

Chapter 84 84. Qing Zhiyuan is an old painter (please follow up)

Three days later, Qing Zhiyuan reorganized the new proposal and took Nao Tsuda with him to visit Sony headquarters again.

Seeing the content of the proposal, Sony's current president, 70-year-old Akio Morita, was surprised.

"Sega?!"

"Yes, Sega." Qing Zhiyuan nodded, "We will develop a new handheld console with Sega. Sega can be said to be the most influential game developer in the world besides Rentian.

If we can cooperate with Sega, Sony will definitely be able to successfully enter the game market. "

Akio Morita swallowed silently.

To be honest, Qing Zhiyuan's proposal this time is very attractive.

It spoke directly to his heart.

[I don’t want to enter the game market. 】

[I was deeply affected by Ren Tiantang’s betrayal...]

These are all fake.

Otherwise, Sony wouldn't have planned it for such a long time.

It's just that I have no experience in the gaming field before, so I don't even have a starting point if I want to break into it.

The last proposal by pokeni was actually quite good, and it directly hit Sony’s pain points.

The only problem is-

The energy of pokeni was not enough. The company was too small and did not have much reputation. Sony's board of directors believed that they could not support Sony's ambition to enter the game market.

So it was shelved.

Originally, Sony was planning to contact Namco, but now Qing Zhiyuan came to the door again with such a tempting proposal.

As Qing Zhiyuan said, Sega can be said to be by far the most influential game developer in the world besides Rentian.

Since Rentendo established its gaming hegemony, countless game manufacturers have launched an attack on it.

But the only one who can truly shake the foundation of the empire and pose a threat to Rentian is Sega.

Whether it is in the development of game consoles or in the production of game content, Sega is Rentian's biggest enemy.

Especially when "Sonic the Hedgehog" came out, this game could directly compete with "Super Mario", allowing people to compare Sega and Rentendo on the same platform.

Relatively speaking, Sony is now a younger brother in the gaming field.

It would be a lie to say that I am not moved.

As the president of Sony, Akio Morita had no reason to refuse.

…

"But does Sega really agree?" Akio Morita asked doubtfully, "You must know that Sega itself is also a game console developer, and it has never cooperated with a third party so far."

Sega's president, Hayao Nakayama, is simply another Hiroshi Yamauchi.

Two people are carved from the same mold.

Not only is he very strong in his behavior, but he is also very petty.

When MD was first launched and was at its peak, Sega simply did not allow others to get involved. Even requests from third parties to develop games on MD were rejected by Nakayama Hayao.

If it hadn't been for the release of Rentendo SFC and many game manufacturers switching to Rentendo, causing Sega to suffer a huge setback in the game market, it would have been almost impossible for Nakayama Hayao to allow a third party to intervene in MD.

Even the game is so cautious.

It is even more impossible for others to interfere in the development of game consoles.

"No problem." Qing Zhiyuan said with a smile, "I wouldn't dare come to Sony without Sega's consent."

Um?

So, pokeni has two brushes!

Akio Morita couldn't help but look at the young man in front of him with admiration.

In this world, it can be said that it is a very difficult task to make Sega bow its head and let the old stubborn Zhongshan change his past business philosophy.

This young president can actually do this...

It has to be shocking.

Akio Morita raised his head, glanced at Ken Kutaragi at the end of the table, and frowned slightly.

Why doesn't Sony have such talent?

…

"Ok, I see."

Morita Akio stood up, holding Qing Zhiyuan's proposal in his hand, and said seriously:

"President Qing, please give us some time. We need to discuss internally before making a decision."

Although the words were similar, when Qing Zhiyuan shook hands with Morita Akio this time, he could feel the trembling from the other's fingertips.

Trembling with excitement and excitement.

"Then, please make a decision as soon as possible," Qing Zhiyuan smiled, "because I can't guarantee whether Sega will change its mind temporarily."

Well……

Akio Morita frowned hard.

"Okay, President Qing."

…

"nice."

When going out, Tsuda Nao cast an approving look at Qing Zhiyuan.

"Ah~ I was so scared that my back was sweating." Qing Zhiyuan sighed.

Tsuda Nao looked at this man with some anger and amusement.

To be honest, this guy Qing Zhiyuan is really brave.

He lies without changing his face or heartbeat.

He dared to say "Finish Sega" without even meeting the president of Sega.

"Sony is done, now only Sega is left, come on." Tsuda slapped him on the back.

"Hiss..."

Qing Zhiyuan let out a groan of pain and turned around to look at Nao Tsuda with a cheerful face.

"Can you please be gentle?"

…

That afternoon, Sony held a high-level decision-making meeting regarding pokeni's proposal.

Compared to the dictatorship of Rentendo and Sega, Sony relies more on such meeting decisions.

At the meeting, Kutaragi gave a detailed explanation and report to the board members and senior managers on the four-party cooperative research and development proposed by pokeni.

After everyone listened, they were extremely excited.

"Pokeni aside, working with Sega is really attractive."

"If we can really reach a cooperation agreement with Sega, then this will be a good opportunity to reopen the door to the gaming field."

"We have tried to contact Sega before, but unfortunately President Nakayama's attitude is very firm and he just doesn't want to share the development power of game consoles with third parties. I don't know how Pokeni's president did it."

"What a remarkable young man."

If you can do something that others cannot do, then you have unique cooperation value.

Without this, Sony could have abandoned pokeni and reached an agreement with Sega.

But it is precisely because they have communicated with President Zhongshan before and Sega is very stubborn that Qing Zhiyuan's proposal now seems valuable.

pokeni's four-party joint research and development proposal is like a golden key for Sony.

Holding it, you can open the door to the game market that you long for.

"I think it doesn't matter how pokeni convinced Sega, as long as the result is that we can cooperate with Sega."

"Yes, this proposal can be said to be of great benefit to Sony. If we can negotiate, we can enter the game market.

If the deal fails to be signed in the end, Sony has no losses. "

"So, regarding the pokeni proposal, please show your hands and vote." Akio Morita said.

"Agree."

"Agree."

"Agree."

ps:

In marketing, there is a widely circulated story.

At a party, there was a young man from an ordinary background who wanted to marry Bill Gates' daughter.

So a man named Jack told him, I can help you realize this wish.

But it was obvious that with this young man's worth, Bill would not be able to make him his son-in-law.

Then Jack said to Bill Gates: "I'm here to help introduce a good husband to your daughter."

Bill said: "My daughter doesn't want to get married yet!"

Jack added: "But the young man I'm talking about is the vice president of the World Bank!"

Bill was shocked: "Wow! In that case...it's acceptable."

Then, Jack went to the president of the World Bank. Jack shouted: "I would like to introduce a young man to be the vice president of your bank."

The president said: "We already have dozens of vice presidents, that's enough!"

Jack said: "But this young man I'm talking about is Bill Gates' son-in-law!"

The president shouted: "Wow! In that case...it's acceptable."

Finally, this ordinary young man married Bill Gates' daughter and became the vice president of the World Bank.

…

Although this story is false, it actually has a prototype.

A world-famous shipping king. At the beginning, the shipping king's only property was a broken ship.

He was wondering how he could own a boat rental company?

He tried to get a loan from the bank, but because he only had a worthless old boat, the bank always refused his request for a loan.

So he went home, painted and repaired his broken boat, and rented it out to one of the largest charter companies in the area.

So he took this lease contract to the bank for a loan.

So the bank gave him a sum of money.

The money was then used to buy another boat, which was then leased to that charter company.

He used the money from the rental boat to repay the loan.

In this way, he implemented the same routine over and over again. Finally, when the loans for these ships were repaid, these ships would all belong to this shipping king.

…

The author borrows this case here.

What is the essence behind it?

It’s called [cross-endorsement]

When your strength is not enough, finding a stronger person to help you [endorse] is a very good marketing tool.

Then through constant cross-endorsement, you can gain higher value and trade small for big.

Then you may not be able to negotiate a successful business, but with [cross-endorsement], you may be able to succeed.

…

I didn’t write a protagonist who could win over Sony in one go, mainly to highlight authenticity.

Looking for DUN's endorsement, Tsuda and pokeni are old acquaintances and have a foundation of trust in each other.

And DUN is many levels bigger than pokeni.

So I think it's quite reasonable.
