At this time, Gunpei Yokoi was puzzled. Minoru Arakawa could say that Liu Zhiyuan could not develop a console due to technical problems. He could also say other reasons, but he could not say that he had no money. The profit of Elf plus 20 games in one year would definitely be

It’s so scary, don’t forget he also has DDR!

"Sure enough, Arakawa-kun and I have a good connection."

He really has no money to develop the Han Dynasty console. There is no point in imitating MD. Having MD technology does not mean that there is no need to spend money. An investment of several hundred million dollars is the minimum. Counting inventory and game cartridges, this requires

Hundreds of billions of dollars!

He was trying to scare Gunpei Yokoi. Copying MD and other top-notch games from third parties would indeed suppress Nintendo, but Nintendo would not die for a while. The key is, Sony and Sega! Spend so much money to create opportunities for their opponents? He

crazy?

Elf and DDR will bring him huge income this year, but sometimes money is really hard to use. The second-generation handheld console of the Han Dynasty is a gold-swallowing beast, although he swore to Arakawa Minoru and the others that it would be 16-bit color.

The handheld console will come out next year, but he clearly understands the difficulty! Plus the PSP battery! Even US$3 billion is not enough!

Next year, in 1990, in addition to the economic crisis in Japan, don't forget the Soviet Union! There is the future of the Han Dynasty there. If we don't save enough funds now, the future of the Han Dynasty will be gone! Develop the world's top software and hardware technology by yourself?

Liu Zhiyuan never thought that that kind of price was simply not something he could bear!

How much did Nintendo spend to create the FC? How much did Sega invest to create the MD? The development price of the Sony PS is scary to death! This is because they have countless talents and equipment. What does it have? Good ideas are not

It can be realized out of thin air! He needs talents and technology! By the time he spends countless energy and financial resources to cultivate talents, the Internet era has already begun!

If it weren't for the Japanese economic crisis that he could make a fortune from, it would have been impossible for Liu Zhiyuan, the second handheld console of the Han Dynasty, to develop a color screen! Color screen is not just a simple word, and the supporting equipment that suits it is simply sky-high!

Handheld consoles are the most important market for the Han Dynasty now. Let Nintendo and Sega compete for home consoles first. When he gets the technology from the Soviet Union, he will let these people know what a game console is that transcends the times!

"Okay, I'm scaring you, Minister Yokoi. The focus of the Han Dynasty in the next two years will be on the console. Don't worry, I won't restrict you like Hiroshi Yamauchi. Please feel free to use your whims and ideas. I look forward to your success."

New work!"

Yokoi Gunpei's face showed uncontrollable joy. Unlike Minoru Arakawa, he hated Hiroshi Yamauchi! GB was his hard work, and he could agree that GB defeated Elf. After all, Elf was really much better than GB, but he

We cannot agree that GB failed by being abandoned! He wants to take revenge on Yamauchi Pu! This is the most fundamental reason why he joined the Han Dynasty!

The only handheld consoles on the market now are the successful Gremlins and the failed GB. Now, the developers of GB have also joined the Gremlins. Arakawa Minoru's face is full of bitterness. Nintendo really has no chance to touch handheld consoles again.

"Arakawa-kun, how long do you think Hiroshi Yamauchi can last with Nintendo facing enemies on all sides? I might as well tell you that Sony has not given up. Technical Sony is really an arrogant but true title. Do you think Sony will develop it in a few years?

New host?”

The more Liu Zhiyuan spoke, the more bitter Arakawa became. He knew very well that Nintendo was in a precarious situation!

"The key! Arakawa-kun, with Yamauchi's character, those third parties betrayed him, do you think Yamauchi will let them go?"

No, Hiroshi Yamauchi will treat those third parties even more harshly. No one knows better than him how tough his father-in-law is!

"What advantage does Nintendo have after losing a lot of third parties? The outdated FC? Super Mario? I don't even need to take action, Sega and Sony can kick it off the throne."

He expected what Liu Zhiyuan would say, and he could also see this scene. This was not Liu Zhiyuan trying to scare him. No matter how much Yamauchi Hiroshi continued to act, that day would really come, and at that time, the end of Nintendo would really come.

!

Arakawa couldn't bear to close his eyes. Hiroshi Yamauchi regarded Nintendo as his private property. He regarded Nintendo as his home. Now, someone told him that his family would be ruined, but he had no choice but to feel that way.

...

"So, come to the Han Dynasty!"

"Hiru Yamauchi can no longer save Nintendo. It is only a matter of time before Nintendo declines. Only you can save it!"

"As a nameless person, you are not qualified to inherit the power of Nintendo. The Han Dynasty can give you this name! Head of Europe and the United States, you don't have to listen to anyone's orders except me. Even if it's me, if you think it's right, you can do it.

Act according to your ideas, is this condition enough for you to show your skills!?"

Arakawa Minoru stared at the sincere Liu Zhiyuan with his eyes wide open. He was the person in charge of Europe and the United States! How dare he give it to him! Nintendo only gave him the person in charge of North America. Hiroshi Yamauchi was his father-in-law. Who was Liu Zhiyuan?

Humans? Before this, they were enemies of life and death!

"I will not stop you from returning to Nintendo, 10 years! Serve the Han Dynasty for 10 years! I will let you return to Nintendo, and I can even make the Han Dynasty and Nintendo become allies! Strategic partners!"

"you..."

"If you come back to Nintendo and don't want to be an ally with the Han Dynasty, I won't have a problem with it. I would rather be a rival than a friend! I'm a little lonely in the current game market, and I'm afraid I will be even more lonely in the future.

.”

Liu Zhiyuan was completely immersed in the scene he created, and he looked at Minoru Arakawa with emotion.

"Come here if you still want to save Nintendo!"

"An annual salary of 10 million U.S. dollars! That's not enough, you say."

Yokoi Gunpei swallowed. He stared hard at Minoru Arakawa and this familiar partner. 10 million U.S. dollars! Not enough! Why?

"Plus a 0.5% share of the net profits of all Han Dynasty products in Europe and the United States."

"From now on!"

Minoru Arakawa hesitated. It wasn't about money or status, it was about Liu Zhiyuan's words: "If you still want to save Nintendo."

"I...can I quit at any time?"

"8 years!"

"I..."

"5 years!"

Hiroshi Yamauchi trusts him half as much as Liu Zhiyuan trusts him, and he is willing to die for Nintendo!

"Okay, five years. If Nintendo doesn't need me in five years, I hope President Liu won't drive me away by then!"

"You can stay in the Han Dynasty forever if you want!"

Liu Zhiyuan showed the joy of getting a general to the fullest, but no one knew that he was already cursing in his heart! Five years is his bottom line, and five years is the time he gives Nintendo to die! No matter how short it is, he will not

I'm sure he can kill Nintendo. If he doesn't kill Nintendo, then Minoru Arakawa, who knows all about the Han Dynasty, returns to Nintendo and he will go crazy!

But, okay, just agree, 5 years? When the console of the Han Dynasty comes out, no one else will have anything to do! He is not imagining a console that transcends the times! 64-bit is difficult to develop due to hardware limitations, but
Chapter completed!
