Tokyo: Being coveted by my wife, I just want to play games

It was almost noon in the office on the second floor of Linhai.

Taking out two bottles of milk from the cupboard and handing them to Ohara Nanako and Sato Sayuri, Toukawa Che walked to the window and opened it for ventilation.

Letting the cool sea breeze with a little raindrops hit his face, he pulled out a contract document from the drawer and threw it to Akiyama Kaori, then leaned against the windowsill, crossed his arms and looked at the two little ones, "Why are you two here, don't you have classes this afternoon?"

"Hey, didn't you say you could help us get Sister Qiao Xinyu's autograph, so you specially asked us to come here?"

Sayuri Sato was swinging her feet on the sofa, drinking milk with her eyes wide open. Nanako Ohara, who was sipping milk with a straw, also looked up in confusion.

"."

It turns out that Fujiko is just throwing a tantrum.

Seeing the reactions of the two little ones, Sato Fujiko's jealous expression appeared in his mind again, and Dongchuan Che was at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

But it doesn’t matter.

Although Sayuri Sato has a very noisy personality, she is the type who won't act unreasonable in front of outsiders, but she can be very aggressive in front of her family. But the interesting thing is that just like her sister always acts like a wronged young wife in front of Chika Ohara, this girl is also bullied by Nanako Ohara, who usually doesn't talk much.

Like sister, like sister.

It's quite interesting, and Chika Ohara is also here helping Asuka Tsukio, so we can just let her take care of the child when the time comes.

He smiled and asked about the study of the two little ones who would be entering the first year of high school next year, which made Sato Sayuri timid and Ohara Nanako proudly puff out her chest. Then he turned to look at Akiyama Kaori who was reading the contract documents on the sofa.

To be honest, he had guessed that Akiyama Kaori would come today. After all, it was not easy for the Akiyama family to break away from Nico and go it alone. It was not that Nico did not allow it, but because it was too complicated.

Akiyama family can be separated from NICO, but NICO and SATE are both large comprehensive conglomerates. Games and game consoles are just one of their businesses. Their business covers every corner of the entire electronic product field, including but not limited to, TVs, audio, chips, peripherals, mobile phones, computer hardware, etc.

To put it simply, even if the Akiyama family breaks away from NICO's handheld game console segment due to different leaders of different branches and subsidiaries and different factions within NICO, the Akiyama family will not be completely blocked from NICO's ecosystem, but there will definitely be an impact.

Need to be measured.

Kaori Akiyama needs to carefully weigh the pros and cons behind this.

"It seems that she was just testing me when she directly talked about cooperation yesterday."

"But it's normal. Although the Akiyama family has successfully transformed, it is a family business after all, so it is very troublesome."

The Akiyama family is a family business through and through.

This kind of enterprise is actually similar to the feudal dynasties in ancient times that relied on blood relations to maintain their rule. When there is a top-level tough guy who can bring everyone together, this kind of enterprise can burst out with super strong power. But once the leader is lost, things will be very troublesome.

The current head of the Akiyama family is Akiyama Kaori's grandfather, and her grandfather is actually from the same generation as Yuezhu Asuka's grandfather. He is now in his eighties and almost ninety.

This old lion who rules the place still has some power, but when he passes away, who will take charge of the Akiyama family?

What's more fatal is that the most capable person in this generation of the Akiyama family is still the second child, Akiyama Kaori, who is more famous in the industry than her 60-year-old uncle.

The leaders of the old generation are about to retire, and the leaders of the new generation are grandchildren, the second oldest, and a woman.

"It seems that the day when the old lion of the Akiyama family dies will be the day when the Akiyama family will be in trouble."

Looking at Akiyama Kaori's profile as she was carefully reading the contract, Dongchuan Che shook his head secretly. At this moment, Akiyama Kaori also looked up.

"There's nothing wrong with this endorsement contract. Hey, what are you looking at me with?"

I don’t know if it’s because she’s experienced too many similar looks since she took over part of the family’s business and performed very well, or if she simply read this feeling from Fuyukawa Che’s eyes, but Akiyama Kaori’s face turned cold.

I don't want to quarrel with women.

Dongchuan Che took a sip of coffee and changed the subject: "Well, nothing. How do you feel about this joint contract?"

"The amount is fine, but who is this Mashu? I hope to have more famous characters under the Fate IP linked to our controller."

Knowing that Dongchuan Che was trying to change the subject, Akiyama Kaori didn't say much. She just glanced at Dongchuan Che calmly and stated her request.

Her main purpose in coming to see Dongchuan Che this time was naturally to discuss cooperation in the handheld game console field, but the scale of that cooperation was too large and involved too many things.

Not to mention that she herself has not yet completely convinced her family members to leave NICO. Dongchuan Che is also not ready to rush into the handheld game console field at this stage when the GOGO platform has not yet established a firm foothold. Because that means he will face the world's largest PC game platform OTTO, as well as the world's two largest handheld game console platforms - NICO and Juyin.

Eat your meal one bite at a time. If you take too big a step you may tear your egg.

Neither party is ready yet, so topics related to handheld game consoles will naturally be put on hold, but this will not affect the cooperation between the two parties.

In addition to making parts for NICO and other large companies, Akiyama is also a quasi-first-tier peripheral manufacturer in Japan, covering all aspects including mice, keyboards, headphones and controllers.

Akiyama Kaori came here today mainly to establish some small-scale cooperation first, to see Fuyukawa Tetsu's work style and character. Although she doesn't play games or watch anime much, she wants to cooperate after all, and she also knows that the most famous character under the IP of "Fate" does not include the schoolmate Mashu.

Akiyama Kaori felt a little unhappy, thinking that she was looked down upon by Toru Fuyukawa.

Feeling her gaze, Dongchuan Che frowned slightly in silence.

Mashu is an important character in FGO, and her status in the entire plot is no less than that of Saber, Rin Tohsaka, and others in Fate. She has been following the protagonist from the beginning. To put it more abstractly, she is a Paimon who has a stronger presence, is more important to the plot, and can join the battle.

In fact, because the original "FGO" is a paper man mobile game, and his "FGO" is an enhanced version of "Genshin Impact", or to be more precise, "FGO" is a "Persona" with a similar painting style, but super enhanced in many areas such as maps and content.

The characters in "FGO" all live in the real game map, and their portraits will not appear only when the plot requires it. Therefore, he also arranged the character of Mashu to work in the "antique" cafe.

When players go to the cafe to take on daily tasks or something, they will meet Mashu, and her presence is absolutely overwhelming.

For such a heavyweight character, Toru Fuyukawa is willing to collaborate with the Akiyama family on the controller. On the one hand, although Mashu will be very popular in the future, she is still a new character and needs more exposure. It would be good to have a collaboration, but the main reason is because of Tsukitake Asuka.

After all, there are not too many companies that want to cooperate with Dongchuan Che, and the Akiyama family is not a particularly outstanding one among them. But he didn't expect that Akiyama Kaori would not appreciate it.

However, this is normal.

"FGO" has not yet entered the promotion and marketing stage, and "FGO" is different from "Elden Ring".

Elden Ring does not have anime to help it become famous, so it needs to invest a lot of money in publicity to let more people know about this game. But Fate is already a world-renowned anime IP, so it only needs to release the news of the mobile game and the relevant production scale, and players and audiences will spontaneously promote it. At this time, the more the official news is kept secret, the more itchy the players will be.

In this case, Kaori Akiyama herself did not know the proportion of Mashu's plot in the game, but the contract stated that Mashu would be one of the important characters in the game.

I can understand the other person's emotions, but

in business.

When talking about serious matters with Miyano Mitsuko and others, Toru Fuyukawa was quite serious, not to mention that Akiyama Kaori was not yet his woman.

Dongchuan Che didn't indulge the other party either.

After thinking for a moment, he took a sip of tea and said, "The relevant clauses are already written in the contract. If the popularity of this character does not meet the standard in the future, we will refund you according to the contract.

Moreover, if other characters were to appear, the price would not be the same as it is now, and I would have no reason to co-brand with you. Your controller is currently the first in the series, and even if it has passed the test of relevant personnel in our company, it has not yet received market feedback.

We also need to take risks, but I can choose to take this risk or not. You should know very well that if it weren't for Xiaoyuezhu, your controller series would never have been on our company's negotiation table.

Well, let's be frank. You have nothing to offer me in negotiation. If you can accept the conditions I offer, accept them. If you can't accept them, forget it. Don't waste your time arguing with me."

Dongchuan Che said lightly.

After hearing the first half, Akiyama Kaori's expression became increasingly cold, and there was already some hostility in her bright eyes.

But after listening to the rest, she found that Dongchuan Che did not make any concessions because of her beauty or her relationship with Yuezhu Asuka, but was simply discussing the issue from a pure business perspective. The anger in her eyes gradually subsided, and was replaced by a subtle appreciation.

"Although he has a somewhat aggressive and aggressive personality, his perspective on issues is very accurate, and when he talks about serious matters, he will be in a completely different state than usual. He has strong rational and logical analysis skills."

"Last night's lazy pervert, today's iron-fisted president."

"Such a big change. Tsk, he is a very interesting man."

Looking at Dongchuan Che who was still talking, there was a strange look in Akiyama Kaori's eyes.

Although the Akiyama family is not the most prestigious family in Kyoto, Kyoto is the thousand-year-old capital of Japan, and various forces are intertwined. The Akiyama family can make a name for themselves in it. Naturally, Akiyama Kaori has seen many young men from so-called big families who drive luxury cars, live in luxury houses, play on yachts, and hang out in upper circles every day.

To be honest, although online public opinion likes to say that the second generation of rich people and officials are fools, in fact, although there are indeed some fools, to say that these people are all fools and second-generation rich people who are uneducated and unskilled is a bit of self-deception.

Akiyama Kaori had seen many young elites who could lead the entire company and the entire family forward. However, it was the first time she had seen a man like Fuyukawa Che who had built his business from scratch, was very capable, and had such a unique style of doing things.

Quite interesting.

However, just as this thought came to her mind, the next moment, the office door was pushed open.

The person who pushed the door open was Yue Zhu Feiniao, and behind Yue Zhu Feiniao was a beautiful woman wearing a white sweater and black silk wide-leg pants. Her figure and temperament were very elegant and dignified, but because the snow-capped mountains on her chest were too thick, she looked a little more austere.

Is she the God of Wealth of the Holy Light Society?

Is she the "Iitoyo Blue Princess" of the Akiyama family?

Dongchuan Che still has the final say in the Holy Light Society, but he generally does not participate in internal management. Therefore, the finances of all departments under the Holy Light Society are now managed by Chika Ohara.

For this reason, almost all people and companies that deal with the Holy Light Society and need to pay or receive money will see her name in the approval process or contract. Over time, many people have secretly begun to call Chika Ohara the God of Wealth of the Holy Light Society.

Seeing Chika Ohara, a woman who perfectly combines elegance and austerity, Kaori Akiyama's eyes also revealed a hint of curiosity.

She wasn't the only one who thought this.

Chika Ohara is very famous in the circle, but her name Kaori Akiyama is also very famous in the circle.

She is the most capable leader of this generation of the Akiyama family, more powerful than the male members of the same generation or even the previous generation of the Akiyama family.

It can even be said that half of the credit for the Akiyama family's successful transformation and continued rapid development after the transformation comes from the dying old lion of the Akiyama family, and the other half of the credit goes to Kaori Akiyama, who entered the family business after graduating from high school at the age of 18 and handled the company's affairs while studying!

Her impressive business ability, her female identity, and the fact that the Akiyama family is in a situation where the hen is in charge but Akiyama Kaori has not obtained actual equity, have led many people in the industry to jokingly call her "Iitoyo's Blue Princess".

Princess Iitoyo was an ancient Japanese figure. To put it simply, this historical figure's experience was that she was in power and handled government affairs, but was not recognized by everyone, so she did not ascend the throne. Moreover, Princess Iitoyo only ruled for about ten months before she died.

Obviously, this title is not so positive, and even implies some curse.

"If we cooperate deeply with her, there might be some unnecessary troubles in the future."

Seeing Akiyama Kaori, who is bright and generous, and whose aura is somewhat similar to Sato Fujiko, both are very strong, but not as arrogant as Sato Fujiko, and is relatively more "low-key and strong". Thinking of those rumors, although Ohara Chika's face showed no expression, she was constantly thinking in her heart after greeting Akiyama Kaori.

Chika Ohara doesn't know Kaori Akiyama, so naturally she doesn't care about Kaori Akiyama's future, but she knows that Kaori Akiyama is here to discuss cooperation on behalf of the Akiyama family, and it's about the handheld game console field!

This matter is very critical.

The situation of the Akiyama family is so complicated now. If one day in the future, Akiyama Kaori loses power, will the cooperation be affected?

not to mention.

Thinking of this, Ohara Chika glanced at Akiyama Kaori who was talking to Yuezhu Asuka with a smile, and then glanced at Dongchuan Che who was pouring coffee. She didn't think Akiyama Kaori was more attractive than herself, but

"Putting a tiger and a lamb in wolf's clothing in the same cage is bound to cause problems sooner or later. It looks like I have to deal with this woman."

Thinking of this, Chika Oohara took the milk from Nanako Oohara, and under Nanako Oohara's somewhat surprised and shy gaze, she took a sip carefully, with some thoughtful emotion in her eyes.
