Chapter 359 Candidates
This problem is very tricky and very tricky.
Ken Kutaraki has been considering these issues these days, and he has his own opinions, but his opinion is his opinion, while Norio Oga, or Sony, is their opinion. Whether his opinion coincides with their opinion is unpredictable before he formally speaks it out.
In fact, although Sony had some small moves before, these small moves were not serious enough to make Nintendo tear up the agreement directly. Moreover, Sony is very demanding, but many voices in the board of directors said that Nintendo must be punished.
The best punishment method must be to argue with the other party about the ownership of the Ps console. As long as the Ps console, the console that Nintendo just changed its name to Super Nintendo, cannot be released in the near future. When the entire 16-bit game market is completely occupied by Mars Entertainment and Sega MD, even if Nintendo gets ownership of the console they call Super Nintendo, it is useless because the market is gone.
However, for Sony, the ending is the same.
If Sony really has no idea about the video game market, then it is understandable to do so. Even Ken Kuroki will applaud, but in fact, just like Nintendo, Sony now has no idea about the game market.
However, Sony's R&D capabilities are indeed very powerful, but as a technician Ken Kutaraki, he is very familiar with Sony's current R&D capabilities. In this case, it is meaningless to spend another year developing a sixteen-bit host. If he is asked to do it, he will directly develop 32-bit hosts. And he must also strengthen the processing of 3D capabilities. In this regard, Sony has advantages that other manufacturers do not have.
As hardware performance improves, the requirements for R&D will become higher and higher, and Sony's advantages in R&D will also be reflected more and more vividly.
However, the ending of this is that from now on to before 1992, or even before 1993, it is impossible for you to come up with anything worthy of praise, and all three or four years will be destroyed into the research and development of the new host.
Without a platform, it means there is no market, without game development, and there will be no third-party manufacturers to invest. In this case, what is the meaning of SCE?
It’s better to wait for the new 32 hosts to complete research and development and scatter in the city. Why should it be established so early?
Since the group has agreed to the proposal to establish SCE at this time, it will definitely not allow the newly established company to watch the show directly next to it. What's more, the respected senior Ozawa in the group will supervise the situation. He must be very optimistic about SCE's prospects.
The most important thing is that at this time, it is the era when home game consoles are upgraded and expanded from eight-bit to sixteen-bit computers, which is the most suitable period for developing its own market. It would be too stupid to give up just to revenge Nintendo.
In the final analysis, Sony is a business-oriented company. It is not a company that only seeks to be refreshed for a while. They will do things that harm others and benefit themselves, but they may not do things that harm others and themselves.
There are so many opportunities to retaliate against Nintendo. As now, everything is ready, but there are not many times when the east wind is not available. It can even be said that this is only once.
If you miss it, you may be missed forever.
Many things flashed through Ken Kutaraki's mind in an instant, and these things were all carefully considered before. Therefore, after hearing Oga Nobuo's inquiry, he just organized the language and expressed his opinions very clearly.
"I think we can negotiate with Nintendo about the issue of Ps hosting."
After hearing Ken Kutaraki's answer, Nobuo Oga did not agree. There was no expression on his face that could express his personal opinion, but continued to ask in a faint tone as before, "Oh? How to negotiate with Nintendo?"
"It's very simple. Both for us and Nintendo, the Ps host cannot be given up, especially for Nintendo. If the Ps host is given up, then it will be almost time for them to transform again."
Speaking of this, Ken Kutaraki laughed, and the scenes of Hiroshi Yamauchi at the end of finding him to spy appeared in his mind, and then continued to add: "In my opinion, Hiroshi Yamauchi does not have the courage to make Nintendo strategic transformation again. Now he is not ten years ago."
Nobuo Oga nodded this time.
He looked at Ken Kutaraki and pondered for a long time before saying, "To be honest, the opinions within the board of directors do not want to let Nintendo go. The original plan was to terminate the supply contract with Nintendo for electronic components, but the losses caused by this were not what the board of directors did discuss the issue of ps consoles. Many people's opinions were indeed to argue with Nintendo in this regard, and at least they would not get the right to release this console in a short period of time, but this proposal was rejected by me."
As he said that, Oga Nobuo looked at Ken Kutaraki again. This time, Ken Kutaraki's face showed a look of joy. Obviously, this was the news that Ken Kutaraki most wanted to hear.
"I think the same as you, the problem with the PPS console is a double-edged sword. It can not only cut Nintendo, but also cause great damage to us. SCE is now established and is definitely not for watching the show. What the headquarters wants to see is to make some achievements in the shortest time. Therefore, we will reach a consensus with Nintendo on the issue of console. As for the specific situation, it will take a few days to wait for the negotiation problem between us and Nintendo. Do you understand this?"
After Oga Nobuo finished speaking, he looked at Ken Kutaraki with a harsh look.
Ken Kutaraki nodded, and replied in a firm tone: "This is exactly what I think."
"So, do you have any specific candidates? About SCE personnel." On this question, Oga Nobuo told Ken Kutaraki during the conversation three days ago, and asked Ken Kutaraki to prepare for the specific candidates he needed when SCE was established.
Ken Kutaraki did not refuse. In the past few days, he did draft a large number of lists, including all of these lists, from development, administration, production, logistics, and sales. However, when reporting in front of Oga Nobuo, it is naturally impossible to bring out the entire list and talk about it. He only needs to say the most critical candidates.
Ken Kutaraki's list can be said to be unceremonious. Among these candidates, all of them are elites of Sony.
Oga Nobuo took a breath when he saw this list at the first glance.
"Maruyama Shigeo? This is not OK. He is the soul of Sony Music. He is the candidate for the chairman of Sony Music's board of directors immediately. How could I take him into your newly established SCE? However, it is feasible to let him do a special soundtrack for your SEC game."
Nobuo Oga looked and expressed his opinions.
"What? De Zhong Huijiu, is he..." After a few seconds of silence, Daha Dianxiong still nodded, "De Zhong has extraordinary talent in financial operations, and it is indeed very suitable to let him go to SCE." As he said that, Daha Dianxiong drew a check mark behind De Zhong Huijiu's name.
"Who is next? Yitingbao? Since De Zhonghuijiu has given you, there is no shortage of Yitingbao. He is more experienced in fund management and financial operations than De Zhonghuijiu. De Zhonghuijiu's strengths meet planning and overall situation again, and Yitingbao's strengths and strengths are the control of details."
"And Sabuyashi? I remember him, a very talented young man in the advertising department, has designed many excellent advertising ideas, and it is not impossible to give him to you..."
"Taeyu Goto? I remember that he had participated in the joint research and development with Nintendo with you. You have experience in cooperation and are very familiar with Ps consoles. Moreover, in terms of industrial design, he is already the best in our group, and I agree with this point."
As he looked, Oga Nobuo couldn't help but show a slight unknown expression on his face. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Ken Kutaraki, who was nervous at this moment, and asked with a smile.
"Kudaraki, your personnel are almost the elites of our entire group. If I approve them all, what kind of result can you give me? Look at Yuu Kato, the recognized outstanding abilities in our group, I think they are more than enough to let him take your position. Look at this, Tajiri Bin, our first-line quality control expert in production. In the entire Sony Group, there may not be three of them with his abilities, and there are also Okama Masaaki and Oba Akio. These are the proud students of Senior Morizo. You are leaving so lightly. Are you not afraid that Senior Morizo will fight you to the death?"
After hearing what Oga Nobuo said, Ken Kutaraki's face returned to normal.
He just said in the same tone as before: "President, in my opinion, if we want to achieve a great cause, then relying solely on the most cutting-edge technology and the best creativity is useless. We also need a group of the most outstanding companions. This is the root cause of our certain success."
Finally, Ken Kutaraki repeated in a sure tone.
