In the past few days, Li Guangyu has either been inspecting the rb branches of each of his groups, or he has gone to the real estate group to handle some matters, and at the same time negotiate on the real estate group's recruitment matters.
At the same time, Li Xuemei sent Li Guangyu an assistant, Li Xuelan, a 23-year-old top student who studied at Harvard Business School at Harvard University and obtained a Harvard MBA.
Li Guangyu was very surprised at the time why Li Xuemei didn't wait for Li Xuelan to graduate before introducing her to the company. Li Xuemei's answer was that Li Guangyu was currently short of people, and after a while, the assistant position would not be available. Anyway, her sister could just wait for graduation, and everything else would be fine.
Already passed.
Li Guangyu was currently short of people, so he agreed to Li Xuemei's request and let Li Xuelan serve as his assistant.
Today, Li Guangyu brought Li Xuelan to Xingyue Real Estate Group as usual. Since the company is newly built, Gan Qinglin and the others do not understand Japanese, so Li Guangyu still has to come here from time to time to watch.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, Li Xuelan walked into the office and said to Li Guangyu: "Li Sheng, Nintendo's president Hiroshi Yamauchi called and asked if you have time tonight. He will entertain you at the Imperial Hotel."
Li Guangyu felt very strange. His company did not have any business dealings with Nintendo. Why would Hiroshi Yamauchi think of entertaining him?
"Xuelan, please reply to Mr. Hiroshi Yamauchi for me and tell me that I will attend on time in the evening." Li Guangyu said.
Li Guangyu also wanted to meet this legendary figure who brought Nintendo to the top with one single hit, and see what he wanted from him.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Li Guangyu went downstairs and came to the private room reserved by Hiroshi Yamauchi.
Hiroshi Yamauchi looks to be in his early forties and definitely does not look like he is in his fifties. He looks very kind and polite.
"President Yamauchi, thank you for the invitation." Li Guangyu said.
"Li Sheng, please sit down." Hiroshi Yamauchi poured a cup of tea for Li Guangyu.
"President Yamauchi, why did you invite me here this time?" Li Guangyu asked straight to the point.
"Mr. Li, I heard that your company is developing home game consoles and game PC versions. Are you interested in cooperating with Nintendo?" Hiroshi Yamauchi asked.
Li Guangyu didn't expect that Hiroshi Yamauchi would come to him for cooperation. In the RB game market, Li Guangyu's Xingyu Group is currently Nintendo's biggest rival in the arcade market.
"President Yamauchi, our game company has just started research and development. As for the current progress, I am not sure. This matter needs to be discussed between your company and President Li Xuemei." Li Guangyu said evasively.
"Mr. Li, I know that you are basically represented by Seiko Epson in the rb game market, and Seiko Epson is not a professional game company, so I think it is more beneficial for both parties to cooperate between our two companies."
Li Guangyu knew that with Nintendo's years of development in RB, Li Guangyu could develop RB's game market even more by cooperating with him. However, by cooperating with Nintendo, the benefits he would get would not necessarily be more profitable than those from Seiko Epson.
Moreover, Li Guangyu did not want to cooperate with Nintendo on his own games, especially to steal Nintendo's Super Mario. Li Guangyu cut off Yamamoto Shigeru, which was equivalent to breaking an arm of Nintendo.
"So how does President Yamauchi plan to cooperate?" Li Guangyu asked.
"Mr. Li, we at Nintendo have experience in developing home game consoles. You can license the game to our company and we will pay your company patent fees based on the number of sales." Hiroshi Yamauchi said.
Li Guangyu didn't expect that Hiroshi Yamauchi was directly trying to stop Xingyu Electronic Game Group from entering the home game console market. Nintendo's calculations were very good, but it was a pity that Li Guangyu knew that the next ten years would be home game consoles and computer games.
In the world, how could Li Guangyu give up?
"President Yamauchi, I have no plans to license the company's games."
Hiroshi Yamauchi heard that Li Guangyu was not willing to license the game to Nintendo and said: "Mr. Li, regarding the home game console, you have no development foundation, but cooperation with us can quickly open up the market, and the price is negotiable.
You can think about it again."
Li Guangyu didn't think much about this. He was determined to enter the family game market. If he was asked to give up such a large market to Nintendo and only charge a small amount of royalties, he would not do it.
"President Yamauchi, I think our Xingyu Group has no plans to license our games for the time being. If our group has this consideration in the future, we will definitely contact President Yamauchi," Li Guangyu replied.
Hiroshi Yamauchi saw that Li Guangyu really had no intention of cooperating with Nintendo in this regard, so he stopped forcing it.
Hiroshi Yamauchi said to Li Guangyu: "Mr. Li, when your home game console is launched, what are your thoughts on the RB market? Is it possible to cooperate with our Nintendo?"
Li Guangyu heard that Nintendo wanted to capture RB's sales market, so he could cooperate with Nintendo in this regard.
"President Yamauchi, it is too early to say anything about the launch of our home game console. Our two companies can discuss it in detail after it is launched in the future," Li Guangyu replied.
After hearing that Li Guangyu didn't refuse, Hiroshi Yamauchi finally felt that it was not in vain. Nintendo could also make a lot of money by taking over the Xingyu Group's home game console market in RB. The main reason is that several games of the Xingyu Group are too famous.
Nintendo has these games, and now it has long occupied the top spot of RB Games.
Later, I also talked with Li Guangyu about the sales issue of converting the game to a computer version. Currently, there are relatively few computers, so the game cannot make much money, so Li Guangyu also agreed to discuss it in detail between the two companies in the future.
…
Back in the suite, Li Guangyu was thinking about tonight's meeting with Hiroshi Yamauchi. Shigeru Yamamoto of Nintendo had already gone to Li Guangyu's side, and the important person now was Gunpei Yokoi.
It's a pity that Li Guangyu couldn't poach this game tycoon. Now he is the second-in-command at Nintendo, and his power is only under Hiroshi Yamauchi. But without Shigeru Yamamoto, Nintendo would have lost a lot of its luster in the 1980s.
However, Xiangjiang is very lively these days. MacLehose and his party went north, and the content of their meeting with Chinese leaders was also sent back to Xiangjiang. Many families in Xiangjiang also gave up on the promises made by Chinese leaders to Xiangjiang.
Heart comes.
Li Guangyu paid special attention to what the leaders said about welcoming companies from Hong Kong to invest in the mainland, especially investment in Shenzhen. Li Guangyu knew that the door to the north was gradually opening, and Li Guangyu was now thinking about how to get in first and whether it would attract the attention of the British and Treasure Islands.
of suppression.
Regardless of his past life or this life, Li Guangyu admired the old man very much. It was he who led China on the road of rapid development and also pointed the way for the recovery of Xiangjiang Lisboa and the stability of the local area.
