Back To 1995

   Chapter 545

   The security guards with professional training and weapons are not the same as the three people who watch the gate combined, and the elderly people who don't have ten teeth can compare.

  Han Changyou's energetic club, when encountering this group, security personnel trained according to the standards of mercenaries and professional bodyguards, and equipped with equipment and the like, those clubs will only have to stop.

   What made Han Changyou even more dreaded was the Special Investigation Department of the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office. This department put too much pressure on Han Changyou, and as we all know, this department has always been inextricably linked with America.

The ghost knows, if something really happened, will Xue Leshan Sun Benzene Co., Ltd. send rescue troops to America? Once America's Federal Foreign Affairs Committee takes action, let alone Han Changyou, even if it is the gang of congressmen behind him , I'm afraid the day will be sad.

   In Sato Heiichi's expectant gaze, Han Changyou said something that disappointed him, "Unless it is unavoidable and the fish die and the net is broken, those methods are not suitable..."

  Satopei glanced at Han Changyou, and knew that he was no longer the age when he came to Niben alone and dared to open a billiard room on Niben Street and play with a group of pranksters alone.

   The current Han Changyou family has a big business, and there is such a chain of billiards room companies, how can they be willing to give up these things, and then pick up the blade again, it must be delayed as long as they can.

Sato Heiichi left the meeting place, and after getting in the car, he sighed. He felt that the Japanese Benzene Ballroom Association seemed to be arrogant. The so-called black and white took both sides. With so many big men as consultants, they could deal with Xue Leshan and Sammy. Come here, they are all too afraid to take action. Heiichi Sato feels that it may be a little difficult to restrict Sammy. He has to think about the way back...

Sato Hei shook his head and sighed, if Sami succeeded in not being the boss of a pachinko machine manufacturer, but the boss of a pachinko shop chain, then even if he cooperated with Sami and fell into the camp, it doesn't really matter, anyway, he died. It's not him, what to do now, Sato Heiichi can only wait and see what happens, anyway, it's not him who is anxious now!

   "President Koguchi Hisao!"

   Satomiji brought a group of people from Sammi to the headquarters of Sega and met Hisao Oguchi, the current president of Sega.

   Unlike Yamauchi, who is already very old, Hisao Koguchi looks very young. If you only look at his face, he feels like he is just in his thirties.

   "President Satomiji!"

  Oguchi Hisao, who was somewhat bookish, nodded towards Satomi Haru and said, there is no pretence, and unlike the traditional management of Nippon Benz, Hisao Oguchi is very easy-going.

Satomi-ji looked at Hisao Oguchi. In the past few years, Sega's president and president have been changing people back and forth like watching flowers. As long as Sega loses money, Sega will immediately change the president. As for the research and development projects and products, it is also constantly changing, and in the end it can only be a mess.

It was against this background that Koguchi Hisao came to power. He felt like he was rushing ducks to the shelves, and it was true. Sega kept losing money, and then the president kept changing. In the end, he didn't pay much attention to fame and fortune, had game development experience, and brought Hisao Koguchi is a bit Buddhist.

   It is this kind of person who is willing to talk about the idea of ​​selling himself to Sega. Several other Sega presidents, who have to suffer for face, are definitely not willing to talk about this.

   "Sega is the company that Sammy has cooperated with for the longest time. I remember that more than half of the orders for Sega's game arcades before were completed by Sammy!"

   Satomiji pulled a relationship with Oguchi Hisao, talking about the long history of the two companies, but Oguchi Hisao did not give him any face, or in other words, he was not that kind of trickster.

   "It's a pity that only half of Sega's 1,000 arcade game arcades can remain this year. The arcade market in America has completely collapsed!"

  Oguchi Hisao told the truth, but Satomi was a little embarrassed to hear it, and he didn’t know where to start.

Sega is a very special company. The Japanese company established by the American people has companies on both sides of the Japanese and American companies. In the previous model, the Japanese company was responsible for the development of arcade machines and mainframes, and then the American Sega company Selling in North America, Sega once accounted for 63% of the American arcade market.

But that was in the past, when there was money to be made, both brothers were good. Peter Moore has a very bad relationship. Both sides want to kill the other and take control of the other. The Japanese and Benzene Sega has been in a bad situation in recent years. The American Sega is happier than Sony and Nintendo...

It even broke out before, and Sega Nippon and Sega Amerika were secretly developing the host without the knowledge of the other party. As a result, when the development was about to be completed, they "suddenly" remembered the other party and notified the other party. Don't care, is it possible to scratch them across the Pacific Ocean?

   "I think these are only temporary, as long as they find the right allies, Sega can change these things!" Satomi Haru hinted to Hisao Oguchi.

   "I hope so." Oguchi Hisao also said to Satomiji.

   glanced at Hisao Oguchi and the group of executives of Nippon Sega behind him, Satomi knew that there were still people waiting for his reply in America on the other side of the Pacific Ocean.

Not going to delay, Satomi said directly, "President Koguchi Hisao, we all know the current situation of Sega, we heard that Sega's performance in the new quarter is somewhat unsatisfactory. From four years ago to the present, Sega has It has continued to lose 248 billion yen..."

  According to the exchange rate, Sega has lost almost two billion dollars in the past few years. It is no wonder that they are constantly changing people in a hurry. If the loss continues, the entire Sega will lose money.

   Satomiji continued, "Now the global arcade market is disappearing, including the Japanese benzene, the game console industry, the failure of Sega's Saturn console, and the Sega DC console..."

I didn’t go on. The reason why he was able to come here today was inseparable from the relationship with Sega, the DC game console. This game console, which Sega had high hopes for and wanted to launch a Jedi counterattack, was beaten by Sony. sloppy.

When Sega was preparing to release the DC console, Sony held a press conference, using the upcoming PS2 console to demonstrate the "Final Fantasy 8" game. This big show made countless players feel like they were blown away by Sega. The DC host, in front of the Sony PS2 host, is nothing but the same.

  Actually, the console configuration of the PS2 cannot reach the level of the press conference. As we all know, the machine at the press conference, just like the things in the advertisement, will always be two different things from what you bought.

But no matter what level the Sony PS2 console is, anyway, the reputation of Sega DC has completely collapsed. Countless players who have already pre-ordered have begun to refund their orders, holding coins and waiting to buy Sony's PS2 and Nintendo consoles. Sega's backbone was completely broken, huge investment, but not many consoles were sold, making Sega's performance bleak.

  No wonder Yamauchi looked down on Sega. Sony used some small tricks and performed a few shows to make Sega tormented. How can such a Sega be an opponent of Nintendo.

   However, this is all a matter of the previous president of Sega. The current Oguchi Hisao is responsible for cleaning the **** of the DC console, increasing the sales of the DC console, and letting Sega live.

   "Now the Sega DC console is being revised, and products from third-party game companies are being introduced. In addition, new games will be provided. It is expected that the sales of the Sega DC console will increase a part!"

   Without being aggressive or arrogant, Oguchi Hisao answered very honestly, with almost no moisture, but Satomiji felt a little headache.

Sega is ready to change the direction of the wind. This is the first thing that came to mind when Satomi Haru heard Oguchi Hisao. In the past, Sega has been working **** hardware to develop the most advanced arcade machines and the most powerful game consoles, such as DC consoles. It is the world's first sixth-generation game console, but the game supply can't keep up.

  Sony and Nintendo have robbed most of the third-party game suppliers, leaving Sega’s console as if it had brute force, but couldn’t beat its opponents. Coupled with infighting and other cowardly operations, Sega was crippled step by step.

Now, Hisao Koguchi is obviously going to change the situation of Sega. Whether it can be achieved or not, this change is very important for Sega. If Sega really gets through this difficulty, I am afraid that it will be resurrected with blood. !

   Satomiji didn't want to see this happen. He wanted Sammy to buy Sega, but he didn't want to watch Sega come back to life from the ICU full of blood.

Knowing that it was useless to play tricks with Oguchi Hisao, Satomi said directly, "President Oguchi Hisao, it may be the best choice for Sega to cooperate with Mimei, and Sammy can provide it to Sega. Sufficient funds, plus…”

"Samide's parent company is Xue Leshan. I think President Hisao Oguchi and everyone have heard the name of Xue Leshan. If Sega can merge with Xia Mei, the game supply will no longer be a problem. Xue Leshan can To supply games to Sega consoles, you can also seek supply games for Sega from game makers such as EA and Ubisoft…”

   Hearing this, there was a sudden noise in the conference room. The conditions that Satomi Haru put forward were really good. The money and the game were what Sega lacked the most.

Moreover, Xue Leshan is an American company, which is beneficial to Sega in the North American market. In recent years, Sega has been beaten by Sony and Nintendo in the North American and European console markets. With the help of Xue Leshan, Sega Might be able to stand firm.

   "I will report the proposal of President Satomi to the Sega board of directors. The merger of Sega and Sammi requires the approval of the board of directors!"
