Nintendo's representative is Matsumoto Yoichi.

He is tall among the Japanese and very thin. He has been in Hong Kong for five days. A few days ago, he went to Oriental Company every day to ask, but finally sat directly at the door and couldn't drive him away, saying that he would wait for Mr. Chen to appear.

"Boss, you have to meet me!"

"Or he will get out of his seat tomorrow! He will have a septum the day after tomorrow!"

Under Gu Weili's reminder, Chen Qi finally came back from a business trip.

So on the sixth day, Matsumoto Yoichi was dressed properly and energetic, not like he was suffering, and entered this legendary office - Oriental Company is also a legend in the eyes of the Japanese. They were very envious, jealous and hated. Why can the Chinese succeed in Hollywood? And they are famously unfriendly to Japan.

With this mentality, Matsumoto Yoichi met Chen Qi.

The first reaction is the same as many people, so young!

"Mr. Chen, I finally saw you!"

"You can speak Chinese?"

"My father loves Chinese culture very much. I have learned a little. This time I took the liberty to visit and prepared a little bit of tribute, which is not worthy of respect!"

Yo Matsumoto bent down 90 degrees and handed a gift box with both hands. Chen Qi took it and saw that it was probably a Japanese specialty. He put it aside and smiled and said, "I have to worry, please sit down!"

"I work for Nintendo North America... Oh, I'm in New York. I like watching movies the most. It's really admirable that Mr. Chen can make a career in the United States! I watched "Rain Man" three times, and the brotherhood in it is so touching..."

"Stop!"

Seeing that he was constantly polite, Chen Qi quickly stopped: "Let's not exchange too many greetings. What's the matter for you to see me?"

"That's it!"

Yo Matsumoto sat upright and explained: "We heard that Mr. Chen had obtained the copyright of Tetris. We happened to want to release this game, so we wanted to talk to you."

"Which copyright do you want?"

"Home game consoles and handheld consoles! If you are willing to give up, we are willing to pay a high price to buy the copyright, or you can also authorize it."

"Copyright will not be sold, we can talk about authorization."

"Okay! There are two ways. The first is to buy out. We buy out the global issuance rights of Tetris, with a term of 5 years and a price of 15 million US dollars. The second is to share the share of 5 years. For every copy of Tetris sold, you will be given 10% of the share."

“…”

Chen Qi rolled his eyes and fooled the big fool!

"Tetris" is only counted as a five-year period, and can have at least 30 million copies. The genuine cassette is super expensive, with an average of $30, and that's 900 million! Of course, there are various costs in it, but the other party's offer is very insincere.

You know, Chen Qi has to give royalties to the Soviets!

“It’s too low, I want 50%!”

"Mr. Chen, you made me embarrassed."

Yoichi Matsumoto maintained a polite and gentle attitude, but he was very tough: "You may not understand the trouble we saved you. First of all, the copyright of Tetris is very messy, and many companies have invalid copyrights, which requires legal means to resolve. Nintendo has the strongest legal department, you authorize us to go to a lawsuit, and you don't have to worry about it at all.

Secondly, the cost of cassettes is very transparent. A single cassette costs about $10, which is very expensive. You don’t have to bear the production cost, you need 50% at the first time you open your mouth. This is really, really...ah!"

He acted helpless and panic, and was well versed in negotiation skills.

Here I want to say that Nintendo is super domineering. For example, if a game manufacturer wants to release its own game on Nintendo console, then you must abide by the following rules:

The cassette must be produced by Nintendo, but the production cost is borne by the game provider;

The ordering, circulation and wholesale of games must be the responsibility of Nintendo Cooperative Organization, and game dealers cannot sell them privately;

There are restrictions on the number of works sold by each game provider every year, usually ranging from 1 to 6;

Game dealers need to estimate sales and pay a 30% share first. As for how much the game is sold in the end, Nintendo doesn't care, it can't lose anyway. On this basis, game dealers have to pay a deposit, about a few hundred million yen to ensure that they will not defect to other platforms.

What's even darker is that later Nintendo made a disk drive, and it even had to divide the copyright of the game.

Although this system ensures the quality of the game, it is achieved by exploiting manufacturers. When Nintendo was the most awesome, everyone dared not speak out. Later, Sony developed PS, and a large number of manufacturers escaped from Nintendo's tyranny and defected to Sony.

Resisting Lao Ren's tyranny, the world belongs to PS!

"Tetris" was not developed by Oriental, but only has copyright. And Nintendo took the initiative to ask for it, so the above rules did not apply, but Chen Qi asked for half of the words, which was even more uncomfortable than taking Nintendo's life.

"50% certainly won't work, up to 15%!"

“15%?”

Chen Qi was happy as soon as he heard this and said, "First of all, Tetris is not an unknown person. It is very well-known worldwide. It is worth paying a high price. Secondly, you don't have to worry about lawsuits, we can fight ourselves.

Finally, the cassette cost is not transparent!

You kidnapped game dealers and asked them to bear the cost of cassettes, but you don’t disclose the cost, you all have the final say, so don’t complain to me here.”

"Mr. Chen!"

Matsumoto's face changed, and the inherent politeness in the Japanese workplace could not be maintained, and said, "Your words are too much, which has damaged the reputation of our company. I hope you can take back this sentence."

"Oh? Otherwise?"

"Our FS game console has the highest sales volume in the world, and one-third of the families in the United States have our game consoles! You should also read more news. Our new generation of handheld consoles will be released soon. Tetris can cooperate with us to achieve the greatest win-win situation!"

Matsumoto Yo stood up and stared at him.

“…”

Chen Qi glanced at him with his bladder, leaned back, and said, "In November last year, Tetris was released in Japan. I heard that it had sold 2 million copies. If I remember correctly, it was released on your platform.

You have not received real authorization to release my game privately. Don’t think you can stay out of it. You will also have a copy of the lawsuit!”

"you!"

Yoichi Matsumoto finally couldn't hold back and was exposed. Nintendo was in a hurry to take over the real copyright of Tetris, and Chen Qi was talking about one of the factors. If he really wanted to sue, Nintendo would be unreasonable.

Nintendo always asks for money from others. When will it be its turn to give it money?!

"Go back and think it through and talk to me, you can leave!"

Chen Qi expelled guests.

Yoichi Matsumoto wanted to force him a few words, but with a bang, the door opened. Xiao Mo stood at the door and stared at him. He was especially looking forward to his further actions, so that he could beat the Japanese.

"Thank you for taking the busy meeting. I will go back to report and say goodbye!"

Matsumoto Yoichi bowed ninety degrees again and ran away in Xiao Mo's very regretful gaze. Xiao Mo muttered: "Damn it, run faster, you can see it with a scathing look!"

"Boss, how are you talking about?"

Gu Weili came in happily. She is a two-dimensional world and is very concerned about the game.

"Not really, cooperation has not been reached."

"Nintendo has the largest market share, so what should I do if Tetris is?" Gu Weili said.

"It's the biggest, it's not a monopoly, it has more opponents! Book me a plane ticket immediately, I'm going to the United States and send someone to the Soviet Union, and we'll fight a huge lawsuit."
