Chapter 166
Time passed by minute by minute, and it was noon in a blink of an eye. Tens of thousands of players gathered at each sales point of the Han Dynasty. After 4 hours of sales, this number not only did not decrease, but also increased.
Where there is Wal-Mart, there must be Carrefour. There are many players on the street, but this seems to have nothing to do with Carrefour. These players seem to have forgotten that today is also the first release of Nintendo GB.
"Minister Yamato, is your club watching so much in the face of such a situation?"
Flandy, the head of the European and American people in Jiafule, looked very ugly. He spent a lot of effort to promote Nintendo's GB, but the result was in front of him. Compared with the crowded Walmart, Carrefour had two or three kittens.
From 8 o'clock to now, although Carrefour has more traffic than usual, when is it now? It is the first day of Nintendo's new console. He still remembers the brilliant scene when FC started. At that time, he was just a middle-level manager. He secretly vowed that one day he would organize such a grand event.
The opportunity came, and the popularity of the pocket elves made him see the opportunity, but Liu Zhiyuan refused, but it didn't matter. Nintendo found him, and he swore at that time that he must suppress the momentum of the Han Dynasty and let Liu Zhiyuan know the consequences of rejecting Carrefour.
"I used Carrefour's global resources. Isn't this what your society promised at the beginning?"
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became. At that time, Nintendo's Hiroshi Yamauchi agreed to cooperate with him to promote Nintendo GB! He bet on everything and used all his relationships to create another Carrefour event.
Yamato Akihito smiled and poured out the cold tea in front of Flandi.
"Director Flandy, be calm and have a cup of tea. This is a long war, don't care about temporary gains and losses."
He poured hot tea for Flandy.
"The Han Dynasty has only 20 million elves. If they continue to sell at the current pace, they will be out of stock in less than a few days, and then it will be Nintendo's world."
You fucking think of me as a fool? Flandy's face was so gloomy that it could drip out of water. This was simply an insult to his IQ. He now regrets agreeing to Nintendo's cooperation agreement.
"Minister Yamato, I sold 20 million units in a few days! What's the concept? Do you want me to tell you?"
Yamato Akishi didn't care about the sarcasm in Flandi's words at all, and he took a sip of fragrant tea.
"Don't be angry, Director Flandy, I understand this principle. The production volume of the Han Dynasty is very low. Don't worry. Once the elf is out of stock, those players will naturally come to buy GB. Look, as the head of Nintendo North America, I am not in a hurry. Just rest assured, all this is within the president's plan."
Flandy was angry at Yamato Akihito's words, which was simply nakedly insulting his IQ. So what if the elf was out of stock? The more out of stock players, the more they were looking forward to the arrival of new products. Every day, he had already seen the scene where countless players were wandering around the door of Walmart.
"Come on, Salina, give our Yamato Minister a comment on the current sales."
GB wants to wait for the elf to occupy the market during the period when the stock is out of stock? Do you think he is an idiot? Why? With the crushed sales volume? Players no longer agree with GB after seeing the elf! They would rather wait than buy GB!
"Before 12 o'clock today, Carrefour sold more than 30,000 GB in the United States. Europe is better, more than 40,000, Japan is more than 20,000, and other regions have less than 10,000, and a total of more than 110,000 units worldwide."
Flandy no longer hides his emotions, and he sneered at Akihi Yamato.
"Tell Minister Yamato about the sales of the Han Dynasty."
"Yes, the Han Dynasty sold more than 390,000 units in the United States, more than 500,000 units in Europe, more than 100,000 units in Japan, and 100,000 units in other regions. Because we did not get this data at the first time, the total sales volume will only be higher."
Flandy raised her legs with a sarcastic look on her face.
"Come on, our respected Minister Yamato, tell me, in the face of this 10 times difference in sales, why do you believe that GB can turn the tables?"
After hearing the 10-fold gap, Yamato Akishi's heart suddenly contracted, but fortunately, Nintendo didn't want to win this time, as long as he could get his money back.
"It will turn the tables. When the elf is sold out, that is our opportunity. The president has already made arrangements..."
Looking at the Akihiko Yamato who was talking, Flandy's face became more and more disgusted. He really treated him as a fool! Do you really think that he was not sure if he was attacked by Hiroshi Yamauchi? He was shot as a gun!
"Enough! SHITUP! Nintendo is very good! You are very good!"
Since Flandy took the position of Carrefour as the head of the United States, he has never had a big temper in front of others. He scolded Akihiro Yamato, looked at him with red eyes and stood up without saying a word for a few seconds. He no longer had fantasies, nor did he dare to threaten Nintendo. He does not have this qualification and has to find a way to explain to the headquarters. He doesn't want to leave Carrefour yet!
Flandy's departure took Carrefour's people away. After only Nintendo's people were left in the office, Yamato Akihime's smile disappeared, and he looked at the empty door with resentment in his eyes.
No one has scolded him in front of everyone! From the time he sat in Nintendo's North American position! Except for Mi Arakawa!
“How much difference in sales?”
10 times! When will Nintendo’s things be 10 times widen by others!
"Yes, minister, more than 10 times. Many store managers at Wal-Mart have secretly increased the time for players to purchase, otherwise the sales gap will be even greater."
"I know, what is our GB sales trend? Is there a sharp decline?"
"No, very stable, but..."
The subordinate wanted to speak but stopped, but in the end he would finish the sentence with gritted teeth.
"However, this stability may not last long."
He was once a subordinate of Mirakawa and his closest subordinate. He was trained by Mirakawa as the next North American head. In terms of ability, he is definitely ahead of Nintendo in North America, but few people know about this.
"How much do you expect GB to be sold globally in the end?"
"There is the highest in millions. Players will never come over to buy GB just because the elves are sold out. Most of the people who buy GB now are Nintendo's loyal fans. The out-of-stock of the elves actually has a slim impact on GB."
Yamato Akishi still recognizes the ability of this subordinate. I really don’t know why Aarakawa didn’t use him at the beginning. Fortunately, Aarakawa did not use him, otherwise such capable subordinates would be difficult to find.
"One movie is $100, and 10 million movies is $1 billion. That's enough, that's enough."
Yamato Akishi had some calculations in his mind. The 1 billion US dollar could not recover GB of capital, but he would not lose too much. This result was enough for him to hand over.
