Chapter 1277 Kasugano Consortium! 2
"Nentendo…"
Seri pondered for a while why Haru had decided to buy this company.
"If I am not wrong, Nentendo has proposed several times asking you to buy a copyright to create a manga in your "Weekly Viking Shounen Magazine" into a game, right?" Ritsu suddenly joined the conversation.
"Is it?"
Seri was quite busy with the acquisition and managing her team. It was impossible for her to manage all the companies which were being acquired by Haru alone and that was the reason why she had her own team that had been selected carefully by Ritsu.
Seri looked at Haru and asked, "So you're confident that that manga in your magazine is going to be a hit once it is made into a game?"
"Yes."
Haru nodded without hesitation. He knew that Nentendo was aiming for his Pokemon, but he didn't let them.
One was that he didn't lack money and another thing was that he had planned to acquire Nentendo.
"I have heard that they're planning to release a new game console." Seri looked at Haru and asked, "Do you have confidence in this new game console?"
Haru shook his head and said, "No."
"……"
"Huh?"
Seri was startled and shocked when she heard that Haru didn't have confidence in Nentendo's new game console. "Then why did you decide to acquire this company?"
"I'm not confident in Nentendo's new game console, but I'm confident in our copyright," Haru said.
His words weren't wrong since he owned a lot of copyrights from movies, manga, novels, music, etc.
With those amounts of copyright, he could create various interesting games and with Nentendo as the console, he believed that he would be able to raise the value of Nentendo several times.
Seri thought for a while, thinking about the possibility of Nentendo. Unlike in the past, her boss owned a game company after all and of course, she needed to learn about the game industry in this world.
After a minute of silence, Seri asked, "But don't you think the market of handheld games has decreased? Especially with the appearance of smartphones, you also own a smartphone game developer, right? You can develop those game copyrights into smartphone games too, right?" She felt that Nentedo was too outdated since she felt that the future would be on smartphones.
At this moment, the number of people who owned smartphones wasn't much, but in the future?
Seri believed that in the future, all the people in this world would own a smartphone, and rather than Nentendo, the future of smartphone games was brighter in her opinion!
In her mind, Nentendo was different from Playstation and Xbox which was a game console that was being played at home, Nentendo was a handheld game console and the market of handheld game consoles was quite confusing since the only handheld game console in this world was either Nentendo or PSP.
"Yes, but the handheld game console and smartphone game are different…"
Haru knew that smartphone games were profitable and so were all the people in this world, however, the handheld game console's market's possibility was high. He also had an idea on how to develop Nentendo in the future and the reason why he was so confident with this company.
Hearing Haru's explanation, Seri understood the reason why Haru wanted to buy Nentendo and at the same time, she knew that without a good gameplan, it was impossible to survive in the smartphone game industry, but Nentendo was different.
If they bought a Nentendo, then they could create a new market!
New market!
It was something that made Seri feel that her way of thinking was wrong and knew the potential of a handheld game was bigger than she had thought since Nentendo didn't have a competitor!
In this world, there are two theories of the business market and that is Red Ocean and Blue Ocean.
The Red Ocean is where every industry is today. There are defined markets, defined competitors, and a typical way to run a business in any specific industry. On the other hand, the Blue Ocean, on the other hand, is calm and smooth, with lots of food and little or no competition.
Nentendo was a rare business that was located on the Blue Ocean.
"Let's buy Nentendo!"
Seri felt that they needed to buy this company as soon as possible since the stock of Nentendo was at its lowest point and its price also wasn't that much different from Nerflix that they had bought before.
"That's good." Haru nodded and suddenly remembered something. "Oh, right, can you help me buy Lululemon Athletica and Under Armour?" He had a lot of sports clubs and it was too wasteful to not use those sports clubs better!
The best way to use a sports club better was to buy a sports goods company which made him able to promote shoes, t-shirts, etc easily.
"If I'm not wrong, both Athletica and Under Armour should be worth around 1 billion dollars each," Ritsu said.
Seri nodded and said, "I agree. You have a lot of sports clubs and it'll be wasteful to not utilize it better." She knew that Haru wanted to create a media kingdom which made her think about what he lacked at this moment to complete his media kingdom.
Haru looked at Seri who was thinking deeply and asked, "What are you thinking about?"
"Haru, what do you think of toy companies?" Seri asked. She felt that a toy company would be very good to buy since he had a lot of copyrights.
Haru thought for a while and said, "It's a good market, but you should know that I don't have that much money now." Even though he knew that most children would choose a game rather than a toy, he knew that the market for toys was still huge and he also had a lot of copyright that he could use. It would be wasteful not to utilize that copyright to the fullest so he thought to buy a toy company in the future.
"I already have a video game company after all and video games are better than toys, but the size of the toy industry is still big, so let's talk about the toy company next year."
Even though it was a good choice to buy a toy company, there were still a lot of better companies that he needed to acquire.
Seri nodded and said, "That's true, but then what are you planning to do next?"
"Of course, I want to create a consortium," Haru said.
*BOOOOOMMMM!!!*
When that word was heard, Seri felt an explosion right on her head since she had never thought of his ambition to create a consortium.
"It's true that my business is mostly media related, but in the future, it's going to be more than that," Haru said.
"I can't wait for that moment…"
Seri was full of excitement when she thought that she was part of the development of the Kasugano Consortium.
Haru sat on his seat while staring at the scenery of Tokyo from his office.
