Back To 1995: Chapter 374 hand the knife

  Chapter 374 Pass the knife

  Xueleshan was born in America. If it enters the Japanese billiard room market, people have to speculate whether this is done by a company from Xueleshan, or there are a group of American people standing behind it, wanting to get in and get a share!

  But no matter what it is, once Xueleshan enters the Japanese billiard room market, it will definitely cause a lot of reactions. Foreign monks can chant scriptures, which is common all over the world.

  If it is a local Japanese company that wants to enter the Japanese billiard room market, I am afraid that it will be too much to go around and be cleaned up by various overt and covert methods.

  However, if a company in the suzerain country of America wants to enter, everyone in the billiard room industry in Japan has to weigh it. For Xueleshan Japan Benzene Company, it will not care about making the suzerain country unhappy.

America has been operating in Japan for so many years, but it’s not just about shouting a few times. The soldiers of America on Japan’s island are not just about causing moths, car accidents or scandals. It's not a fire stick, MacArthur's name as Emperor Bentai is not for nothing...

In addition, America has nailed Japan's TV stations, newspapers and other media industries, and the banking industry is also inextricably linked to America. The most important thing is the Japanese local prosecutor The search department was also established in America. I dare not say that these things have turned Japan upside down, but it is easy to target a certain member of the Japanese parliament and dignitaries.

  So, for Xueleshan to enter the Japanese benzene billiard room industry, Satomi and Sammy are all worried, but more are looking forward to it.

If it is backed by the Xuele Mountain Japan Benzene Company, with the support of relationships from America, and the wealth and wealth of the Xuele Mountain gold owner, will the saucy days be easier to live, get rid of the name of the second child of ten thousand years, and even be in Japan? Is the billiard room industry going sideways?

  But no matter how you think about it, this time Sammy Company will not be able to easily take advantage of Xue Leshan. Whether it is Sammy’s board of directors or the management headed by Satomi Haru, they will not easily sell Sammy.

  All kinds of thoughts went through Satomiji's mind. After arriving in San Jose, Satomiji had been waiting for two days. He heard the news that Song Yang was dealing with affairs in Los Angeles.

   But in San Jose, Satomiji didn't mean to be impatient. For such a big deal as the acquisition of Sammy, let alone two days, no matter how long it took, it would be enough for Satomiji to wait.

While Satomi was looking out the window in a daze, the phone in the room rang, and it was from Xuele Mountain. Hearing the content on the phone, Song Yang would come back to meet him tomorrow, which shocked Satomi, "I Be there tomorrow!"

   Early the next morning, Satomi rushed towards the ICQ office building. After entering, he was taken directly to a conference room on the top floor.

The negotiation with Sammy Company this time seems to be that Xueleshan is negotiating with Sammy Company, but in fact, the people from Xueleshan Company did not appear on the stage, but Song Yang, Irene, Marcus, Greg, etc. Someone came forward and was talking with Satomiji.

   "Song, I have heard of your name in Japan for a long time, and the Japanese media are also reporting everything you have done in the Internet industry!"

  As soon as they met, Satomiji said to Song Yang, his attitude was obviously very low, and he didn't seem to have the posture to sit on the ground and raise the price.

  However, Song Yang will not be fooled by Satomiji. For Japan Benzene, it has always been that the deeper the waist is bent, the harder the knife stabs.

  Song Yang listened to Satomiji’s words, but said with a smile, “I’m afraid the Japanese media will be reporting more on Softbank and Masayoshi Son!”

  Song Yang knows exactly what kind of **** the Japanese media is. In the reports related to the Internet in Japan, I am afraid that more of them are touting Masayoshi Son and Softbank.

Even before, when Song Yang went to Japan during his trip to Asia, in the reports of the Japanese media, most of the companies in Song Yang's hands, such as American Telecom, ICQ, Double-click Company, ebay, etc., were sent to Japan. Come to cooperate with Softbank!

  Hearing Song Yang’s words, Satomi Ji was a little embarrassed. Indeed, as Song Yang said, the Japanese media praised Softbank and Masayoshi Son, threatening that Masayoshi Son created Yahoo, and Yahoo was the initiator of the Internet wave in Silicon Valley.

  In the conference room, the senior executives of the Sammy company brought by Satomiji sat on both sides of Song Yang's side.

   After Irene and Song Yang exchanged glances, she spoke first, "President Satomi Haru, I'm glad you came to America. I think the conditions of Xueleshan Riben Entertainment Company should already be clear to Sammy!"

  Satomi Satomi nodded, his eyes flashed over Song Yang and Irene, "So, is Xueleshan really going to enter the Japanese billiard room market?"

All the senior executives of Sammy Company also looked towards Sierra Mountain, and Irene said the words that had been discussed long ago, "The Japanese benzene market is one of the most important markets in the global entertainment market. It has a well-established In the copyright protection market, Xueleshan wants to enter the global market, and Japan Benzene is naturally one of them!"

Regarding this nonsense, Satomiji and his subordinates naturally didn't believe it at all. If Xue Leshan didn't go to Japan's huge billiard room market, it would be called a hell, otherwise he would just let it go with America. Instead of playing in the most closely related European market, they went to the fiercely competitive Japanese benzene market.

  Besides, as soon as he came up, he didn't develop games in Japan or do other things, and he directly wanted to acquire Sammy Company. Xue Leshan is almost everyone knows Sima Zhaozhi's heart.

   Xueleshan is talking nonsense here, but Satomiji and Sammy Company basically understand the purpose of Xueleshan establishing a company in Japan, which is to make money from the billiard room industry.

"Same Company, cooperating with Xuele Mountain is beneficial to both parties. I heard that in recent years, the situation of Sami Company has not been very good. Universal Entertainment, the largest pachinko machine manufacturing company in Japan, has lost revenue in the past two years. It continues to grow, and has reached agreements with Sony, Nintendo and other companies to obtain IP authorization.

  In addition, Niben Universal Entertainment is negotiating and cooperating with Maruhan, the largest pachinko machine operator in Niben. Once the cooperation is concluded, Niben Universal Entertainment's pachinko market may exceed 40%! "

  Since ancient times, the life of the second child in any industry has been difficult, being suppressed by the boss and chased by the third child. This is the case for Sammy Company.

It seems that the pachinko room industry in Japan is in full swing. Last year, the annual revenue reached a record high. However, this does not mean that Sammy’s life is going to be easier. On the contrary, it is because of the fiery pachinko room market that the production of pachinko machines Among businessmen, the competition is even fiercer.

Nippon Global Entertainment is Nippon and the largest pachinko machine manufacturer in the world, occupying half of all Nippon Pachinko machines. There are also a group of competitors such as Sankyo, Heiwa, Fujishoji, etc., chasing Sammy. The competition forced Sammy to cut prices to seize the market. Sammy's revenue hit a record high, but its profits continued to decrease.

  There were tigers before and wolves behind, which is the current situation of Sammy Company. Whether it is manufacturing pinball machines or arcade machines in other pinball rooms, it is not enough to build the machine, but to install the game.

The games on these pachinko machines are either developed by themselves or authorized by other game companies. Niben Universal Entertainment can rely on its wealth and wealth to cooperate with Niben’s Nintendo, Sony and other big game companies to obtain IP authorization and even buy them in overseas markets. Games, but Sammy is different.

   Originally competing with other pachinko machine manufacturers, he couldn’t make much money, and he had to spend a lot of money to buy game copyrights. One can imagine life. If life was really good, Satomi would not come to San Jose.

  Hearing Irene's words, Satomi understood that Xue Leshan must have almost drawn Sammy's hole cards.

But regarding this, Satomiji’s face did not change much. Satomiji understood that this was asking for a lot of money to pay back the money. He could survive in the Japanese billiard room industry for so long and sit in the second position all year round. No matter how bad it is, there are a few brushes.

   "Mr. Bruno, President Irene, Sammy Company ranks second in Japan's benzine pachinko manufacturing industry, with a market share of more than 24%!"

  Satoshi Satomi is telling Song Yang and Xueleshan that no matter how bad Sammy is, it is also the second largest company in the industry. Xueleshan may not be able to find such a company if he is looking for it.

"President Satomi, the cooperation between Sami and Xueleshan is beneficial to both of us. Xueleshan will support Sami, including other aspects, so that Sami can develop in Japan and even the global market. !"

  Irene slightly "hinted", and said something to Satomi. Although she didn't say anything specifically, it inevitably aroused people's imagination about what kind of support Xueleshan would provide for Sammy.

Hearing this, Satomiji couldn't help being silent for a while. Being able to come here shows that he is not so resistant to the acquisition. As for the extravagant things he said, Satomiji and the board of directors of Sammy Company are the most concerned There are only two things.

   The first thing, once Sammy is acquired, what will happen, especially for people like Satomi Ji, and the second thing, of course, is the price.

  Don't look at Satomiji's attitude towards Song Yang just now, but when the price is called, he will definitely not be soft-hearted!

   "What if," Satomi asked the people sitting across from him, "what will happen after Sammy is acquired?"

"The positions of President Satomi and other Sammy executives will not change within two years. In the future, rewards and dividends will be issued according to performance. In the future, the Japanese benzene market, Sammy will still choose local people as management. !"

Song Yang said directly at this time that he knew what Satomiji and his group were worried about. They were afraid that they would be kicked out as soon as Sammy was acquired. He told Satomiji directly that they would not be moved within two years, but they needed to show performance Come here, otherwise, after two years, they will still be kicked out.

  For an industry like billiard room in Japan, locals must be hired as agents to carry out localization in Japan. Otherwise, sending a foreign executive who doesn’t understand anything is basically catching the blind.
