Chapter 167 The End of Yokoi Junping

Japan, Rendang Headquarters, Yokoi Gunpei is nervously waiting in front of the phone. At this moment, he still has no trace of his original high spirits, messy hair, and red eyes. He is extremely decadent.

Hiroshi Yamauchi sat high on the president's office chair and looked at the reports sent from all over the world without saying a word. The atmosphere in the entire office was very depressing, and Shigeru Miyamoto and others did not dare to breathe.

For a long time... Yamauchi Hiroshi's unique voice sounded.

"Oh, it's a 10-fold difference. When has Rentang ever been bullied like this?"

Although he has given up on GB and even decided to give up on the handheld market, he is still very angry when faced with such a huge comparison. Rendo's products have always been several times better than others.

"Mr. Yokoi, Rendo needs someone to take responsibility for this. Minoru Arakawa, who applied for the handheld project, has been dismissed from all positions and returned to Japan. So as a GB developer, how are you going to face Rendang's failure?"

Yokoi Junpei opened his mouth, but was speechless for a long time. He grabbed his hair with both hands and spoke in a low voice.

"No, it shouldn't be. GB really shouldn't lose like this. It really has a chance!"

The sound got louder and louder, and suddenly he raised his head and stared at Miyamoto Shigeru with red eyes, shouting out of control.

"GB really has a chance! Are you right? We still have Super Mario, and we still have hundreds of millions of gamers. Isn't that Minister Miyamoto? Minister Miyamoto! That's what you say, isn't it!? We still have GB

Chance! Our Super Mario still has a chance!"

Facing Yokoi Gunpei who was already going crazy, Miyamoto Shigeru avoided the look that looked like a life-saving straw with an apologetic look on his face.

"Minister Miyamoto!"

Looking at Gunpei Yokoi who kept calling him, Shigeru Miyamoto blamed himself very much and was also very unwilling to do so. Super Mario! He lost again, and he was so frustrated! He also wanted to shout out that GB shouldn't be like this.

Failure, Super Mario cannot fail in this way, but he doesn't dare!

"Director of the Sacred Valley."

"Chief Kawasaki!"

"..."

Everyone who was called out by Yokoi Gunpei either faced him indifferently or turned away.

"hehe..."

Yokoi Gunpei leaned back on his chair and smiled bitterly. Finally, he muttered to himself with a sad smile.

"Not appropriate..."

"GB should not have this ending..."

"It is not my fault..."

"no..."

Shigeru Miyamoto looked at his old friend who was so miserable. He wanted to comfort him but didn't know how to start. At this moment, the phone rang. In the quiet office, its voice was so harsh.

Gunpei Yokoi, who had lost all energy just now, immediately sat up, clutching the phone tightly.

"How many!"

His tone was full of hope.

Thirty seconds later, the phone slipped from his hand with a 'dong' sound, and a deathly aura enveloped him.

With a sales volume of 8 hours, GB not only failed to narrow the gap with Elf, but it has become even wider. In the United States, Elf sales will soon exceed one million, GB has just passed 100,000, and European Elf is running like crazy.

The crazy number of 2 million is gone, GB, 200,000 units! Even Rendang’s home base in Japan, GB has been suppressed and unable to make a comeback, 500,000 vs. 140,000! This number used to be Rendang compared to others!

In other regions, Rendo’s sales volume was almost unchanged, with 30,000 units and Elf’s 300,000 units.

A disastrous defeat! The worst defeat in Rentang's history! This, which he regarded as the last straw, is gone!

This series of numbers spread throughout the silent office. Shigeru Miyamoto could no longer bear to look at his old friend who was full of lifeless energy. With this kind of defeat, Hiroshi Yamauchi...

"Mr. Yokoi, please go outside and explain to everyone about GB's defeat. Reporters are already waiting."

Hiroshi Yamauchi's emotionless voice used to make Gunpei Yokoi's hair stand on end, but at this moment, he acted as if he hadn't heard anything and sat motionless on his chair. Some people had already closed their eyes unbearably, even if they had treated him indifferently before.

Those people didn't urge him to hurry up.

It took a long time before Gunpei Yokoi walked up to Hiroshi Yamauchi like a zombie, picked up the contract of 'GB person in charge' and staggered outside.

"This is just a stumbling block on Ren Tang's way forward. Don't worry about it. The failure of the handheld console is not our responsibility. It is the disapproval of the times. The higher Liu Zhiyuan's Han Dynasty jumps now, the players will fall when they react.

The worse it gets."

After watching Gunpei Yokoi leave, Hiroshi Yamauchi stood up from his chair and spoke in a calm voice towards the people present.

"Rentang has experienced more terrible failures than this, but in the end, Rentang succeeded in standing at the highest point every time. This time it will be no surprise. The GB project failed, but GB's profit loss will not be too serious.

, after selling 10 million GB units, Rentang can completely accept the remaining losses.”

"Dong...dong..."

Seeing that the atmosphere in the office was still very heavy, he pounded the floor with his cane.

"Rentang's new console development plan officially starts today. Directors and ministers, you can go back and think about the plan. Let the Han Dynasty and those third parties understand who is the emperor of the gaming industry. You can't become the third emperor with an outdated toy.

One side."

At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Eric had not yet breathed a few breaths and started to become anxious again. His delaying plan worked, but the players were not stupid either. They quickly realized that beauty was like dung in front of the elves, and Duke.

And those store managers.

"These shameless people! This is Chi Lu Lu's plagiarism!"

Eric gritted his teeth and cursed. He was very happy when he saw the sudden drop in sales when he first implemented the delay plan. But less than an hour later, Duke, not far next door, actually used the same method. Soon, this method

I don’t know who the bastard spread the word, and other stores started using it.

"Store manager! Store manager!"

"Shut up! Kevin, I'm not dead yet! Why are you shouting so loudly?"

Eric was almost worried to death. Kevin rushed forward because something big must have happened. He was really about to collapse. It turned out that store managers, especially those who sell Han Dynasty products, are so difficult to be!

"Store manager, DDR, our 'John Irving' has been drawn!"

For a moment, Eric's whole body was cold. He was praying every moment that no one would win the 'John Irving', but what a lucky chance!

There are no more elves to sell, and now he has drawn a special DDR here, oh my! He simply can’t imagine how crazy those players will come around. Don’t forget, the first Master Ball also came out of his shop.

.

"Store manager! Get out quickly, the police can't stop the player."

"Call! Call! Call the police! Tell them to send me all the fucking New York police if they don't want to cause a stampede!"

Eric didn't have time to care about the players who were already in chaos below. He hurriedly dialed the number of the headquarters.
Chapter completed!
