Rebirth of the Tech Madman

Tang Huan, who stayed in Kyoto for a day, guessed that things were not going so well when he saw Shigeru Miyamoto appearing in front of him with a check in his hand, dejected.

Sure enough, after insinuating the young and simple Shigeru Miyamoto, he learned some ins and outs.

Because Shigeru Miyamoto lived at home for more than a year after graduation, and finally got the opportunity to enter Nintendo through the back door through his father's relationship. Sometimes, there is no clear support for what you want.

When Shigeru Miyamoto, who had made up his mind, went to Hiroshi Yamauchi, he was even stumped. Hiroshi Yamauchi threw back his resignation letter and reprimanded unceremoniously, Come on, just wake up. With your poor English skills, how can you communicate and work with others in the United States?

Thinking about it, I recruited a guy who has nothing to do, trained him for more than two years, and suddenly one day he said that if he wants to change jobs, he will go to the United States with better conditions. Has always been known for being tough.

Just like that, Shigeru Miyamoto, who had been excited by Tang Huan, flinched.

Seeing Shigeru Miyamoto's listless look, Tang Huan rubbed his eyebrows.

In the previous life, Microsoft entered the game industry and planned to buy Nintendo for US$25 billion. After being rejected by Hiroshi Yamauchi, Microsoft tried to poach Shigeru Miyamoto with ten times the annual salary. As a result, Shigeru Miyamoto said, Nintendo has many friends of its own. Rejected on grounds.

At that time, Shigeru Miyamoto had already achieved fame, but now he is still unknown, and he did not expect to be so difficult to find.

In the original time and space, starting from 1990, Nintendo gradually promoted Shigeru Miyamoto's packaging and won awards in the same year. Only then did he gradually become known to the outside world as a producer.

As for his career, we can only know a little bit through the Nintendo corporate biography GameOver written by David Sheff in the mid-1990s.

In the 1980s, Shigeru Miyamoto's existence was hardly known to the outside world.

In fact, Shigeru Miyamoto's name did not appear in the game he directed at that time, only the pseudonym MIYAHON was used.

The reason for this phenomenon, on the one hand, was that the game development industry had not yet been widely recognized by the society at that time, and its status was not high enough to attract attention.

On the other hand, it is said that because Nintendo is worried that its excellent game developers will be poached by competitors, it only fills in aliases in the game.

The reason why Nintendo changed its course and promoted the packaging of Shigeru Miyamoto was naturally out of commercial considerations, but Shigeru Miyamoto, who likes comics and the Beatles, may not be willing to accept the fetters of this reputation, he should be more accustomed to ordinary and mediocre way of life.

Shigeru Miyamoto's wife Yasuko Miyamoto used to be an employee of Nintendo. It wasn't until the mid-to-late 1980s that Shigeru Miyamoto lived in the dormitory provided by Nintendo when his son and daughter were born. He bought one near the Nintendo headquarters. I own a house, and have maintained the habit of walking or cycling to work for a long time.

Based on the analysis of these materials, Shigeru Miyamoto's pursuit of fame and fortune is relatively indifferent. It seems that he has to start with the gap between hobbies and actual work, ideals and reality, and continue to lobby.

Mr. Miyamoto, your family's thoughts are understandable. After all, work needs to be stable first. President Yamauchi's reaction is also understandable. He should be out of Shibo's care and love.

Tang Huan first gave some comfort,

Shigeru Miyamoto was originally apologetic, thinking that he had failed Tang Huan's respect, but now hearing this, he became even more grateful.

Seeing Shigeru Miyamoto's face, Tang Huan changed the topic, Mr. Miyamoto, have you noticed that although your family and current boss care about you, they don't trust your ability, and they are afraid that you will leave your current boss? environment, it will become more and more useless. If you think about it carefully, is this the truth?

Shigeru Miyamoto's signature dazed face gradually turned red, and he nodded slowly.

If you don't take advantage of your youth and work hard according to your ideals, you may regret it in the future. Tang Huan continued to bewitch.

By the way, I forgot to add that Zheru will also set up a subsidiary in Japan to develop games. You don't need to worry about living habits and language communication. After learning about the latest technological frontiers in the United States, You can go back to Japan and continue working.

Tang Huan's promise was not to fool Shigeru Miyamoto. There are so many famous game companies in Japan, so it is natural to use them nearby.

Now abducting Miyamoto Shigeru to the United States is mainly for brainwashing and building loyalty, so that after the talent potential is tapped out, Hiroshi Yamauchi is jealous, and he comes with a family card of Nephew, Nintendo needs you before sending him away. pull back. It would be too tragic to make a wedding dress for someone else.

Shigeru Miyamoto was moved by Tang Huan again, Mr. Tang, I have figured out everything about my future. Give me one more chance, and I will meet you tomorrow.

Seeing Shigeru Miyamoto's determination became stronger this time, Tang Huan secretly heaved a sigh of relief and waved his hands, Then I will wait for the good news from Mr. Miyamoto, and we will set off for Tokyo together tomorrow.

When Shigeru Miyamoto walked out arrogantly, he happened to have a face-to-face meeting with Hideaki Yaskawa.

Looking at Shigeru Miyamoto's disappearing back, Hideaki Yaskawa said in admiration: Mr. Tang's personality is so charismatic. When I saw his expression when he came, I thought the purpose of this trip would be ruined.

It's just thirsty for talents. Tang Huan waved his hands and laughed.

...

The next day, Shigeru Miyamoto arrived as scheduled, but he did not come alone, there were two people behind him.

Tang Huan recognized at a glance that the man in his fifties with sharp eyes was Hiroshi Yamauchi, who was once the richest man on the Forbes Japan Rich List in his previous life.

This is a ruthless person. When he was in office, he rejected Microsoft's 25 billion US dollars acquisition plan. The position was handed over to a professional manager at the helm, allowing the Yamauchi family to completely withdraw from Nintendo and take away control of Nintendo.

Without being introduced by others, Tang Huan greeted him blissfully and took the initiative to say hello: It's a pleasure to meet you. Mr. Yamauchi is busy with business, why did you come here in person?

Seeing that Tang Huan knew him, Yamauchi Pu couldn't help being stupefied, and then he replied stiffly: Is your Excellency that Mr. Tang? Seeing that you are trying so hard to dig out my nephew, I will send him here personally. gone.

It is said that in 1984 Hiroshi Yamauchi designated Shigeru Miyamoto as the leader of Nintendo's 4th R\u0026D Department, which was the most wise, important and important decision in Hiroshi Yamauchi's life. So now he personally sent people to him, wouldn't it be more wise .

After this thought flashed through Tang Huan's mind, he frowned unabashedly, Thank you, Mr. Yamauchi, for your fulfillment.

Seeing this scene, Hiroshi Yamauchi's face turned frosty, and he asked sarcastically, I brought Gunpei Yokoi, are you also interested in him?

It turned out that this person was the famous Gunpei Yokoi. Tang Huan sized him up without hesitation. Gunpei Yokoi was one of the Three Heroes of Hardware at the core of Nintendo's technology development. The other two were Masayuki Uemura and Genyo Takeda. , these veterans who have served Nintendo for almost 10 years, Tang Huan doesn't want to waste his energy digging. As for Yokoi Junpei to resign and leave Nintendo, that would have to wait until the 1990s.

It's better to be low-key, and act good if you can't get cheap, Tang Huan said with a regretful face and a sincere tone: Mr.

Seeing that Yamauchi still looked unhappy, Tang Huan smiled, I heard that Nintendo's consistent code of conduct is not to reject those who come and not to pursue those who go. Mr. Yamauchi's demeanor really makes Tang admire.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Tang Huan nodded to Shigeru Miyamoto, stepped forward and said, Miyamoto, do you want to say goodbye to Mr. Yamauchi, we are about to leave for Tokyo.

Shigeru Miyamoto bowed deeply to Hiroshi Yamauchi, then followed Tang Huan's footsteps and left without hesitation.

Looking at the back of this Nintendo idler, Hiroshi Yamauchi clutched his chest and frowned.

Seeing this scene, Yokoi Junping immediately asked nervously: President, what's wrong with you, are you feeling unwell?

Some chest tightness. Hiroshi Yamauchi took a deep breath.

Yokoi Junhei showed a puzzled look, President, although Miyamoto is eager to learn, but he is not indispensable to our work at present, why do you bother and care so much?

Yamauchi Pu shook his head slowly, I don't know, it's just a kind of intuition, I feel uncomfortable, as if something extremely important has left me.

Yokoi Junpei smiled slightly, At the beginning Miyamoto was recommended by his father. At worst, if we use this relationship to bring people back in the future, we should let them help us train talents for free.

After hearing this analysis, Hiroshi Yamauchi frowned immediately, It makes sense. By the way, didn't Miyamoto say that Mr. Tang was brought by someone from Seiko Epson? Follow this clue to inquire about the other party's details. It may be a tough market competitor in the future.
