Chapter 88 Iwata Satoru joins Nintendo
If you have some understanding of the history of capitalism, you will know that the shareholding system was indeed a powerful tool at the beginning of its invention.
When all competitors are still unable to expand because they are not enough money, joint-stock companies with many shareholders can use the funds gathered from shareholders to expand on a large scale.
Then, this shareholding system thought about trading in a small circle of transactions to the social market.
Even a crew member or a housewife can buy shares and become a shareholder of the company.
And their investments will gather together and become a powerful force to provide ammunition for the company's expansion.
In the future, stock exchanges appeared. Stocks that were originally just for dividends have speculative attributes, and the market can be said to be becoming more and more perfect.
However, yesterday's wine, today's poison.
The powerful tool that made capitalism rise in the past has become a bottleneck that restricts the development of companies most of the time.
Indeed, when people get up early when the company is operating, they come to invest and buy shares, which is beneficial to the company's growth.
However, the current business environment is different from when capitalism first sprouted hundreds of years ago. The market is more complex and more likely to change.
Under such circumstances, the company must make continuous adjustments in response to market changes. Fortunately, in the overall environment, it is necessary to find an ecological niche that suits it.
The major shareholders may be fine, but what about the small shareholders?
Their cultural literacy may not be very high, and they don’t even understand the company’s operations. They just think that since they can make money now, don’t mess around.
So, once something changes are made, they will have a strong chance to object.
Symantec and Kaspersky suffered such a backlash.
This is also the reason why tens of thousands of households have not yet made public offerings.
Even the shares distributed to employees are virtual shares. They are more like securities that can obtain company share and cannot be traded.
This is of course to ensure that the activities of the entire group company can be uniform, rather than differences arise due to their respective interests.
This looks wonderful, doesn't it?
But, be careful.
It is not always a good time for thousands of households to rise.
How many years will the tide of Japan's electronic game industry usher in?
When this tide is on the rise, how can we ensure that we are the first to enter?
The reason why Wanhu can become such a giant without investing is because Wanhu is standing in one trend after another.
You should know that if you can stand in the air, the company can become a very large company.
For example, the biggest winner of the Japanese electronic game wave, isn’t Nintendo a company with the highest market value in Japan several times.
In fact, Nintendo is very similar.
After taking up his post in Yamauchi, Nintendo carried out drastic reforms. Today, although Nintendo has become a leader in the Japanese electronic game industry, it has not invested everywhere like other companies with the huge cash flow in their hands.
Don’t they know the benefits of investing?
No, they know.
However, in the early years, Hiroshi Yamauchi made several failed investments, which made Hiroshi Yamauchi full of shadows on investing in other industries.
Someone will say when he sees this, why is Nintendo so conservative?
However, it was this conservative thing that saved Nintendo.
After the collapse of real estate and land prices, only Nintendo, which still has a lot of cash in his hands, did not fall into a debt crisis.
Other companies have more or less been debt-bearing.
Even some game companies that want to transform into real estate companies simply go bankrupt overnight.
When the US security software industry was in full swing, Yamauchi Hiroshi, who was far away in Kyoto, just made a decision.
He decided to lend hal studio $20 million to help hal studio out of the debt crisis, but he had a requirement to let Iwata leave his position as president of hal and work at Nintendo.
Hal, a company that has one more than ibm, has not really achieved more than ibm, but it is also one of Nintendo's important second parties.
The company's leading series is the "Star Kirby" series led by Satoshi Iwada.
The round pink bubble is not only loved by many children, but also by many girls.
Although the ability of Star Karbi is achieved through swallowing partners, no one feels cruel.
Sure enough... in this world... appearance determines everything... cuteness means justice...
Satoshi Iwata came from a family of bureaucrats of the era, and his father was even the mayor of a city. Of course, Japan's city is roughly equivalent to a prefecture in China.
But even a county magistrate in China is still an achievement that most Chinese people cannot achieve in their lifetime, right?
The reason why Yamauchi asked Iwada to enter Nintendo was not because of Hal's debt.
As he sees now, money is not a problem, but the problem is how to keep Nintendo alive.
Unfortunately, his own son is a waste who is incompetent in food and drink at work.
And his son-in-law Mi Arakawa is another guy with ambition.
What about Shigeru Miyamoto? Although he is a good at making games, he is not optimistic about the issue of managing people, especially managing the entire company.
Originally, there was a candidate answer that was Yokoi Junhei, but he had left Nintendo because of VB.
The only one Iwata Satoshi left is the talent that he is optimistic about and has management skills.
Although the company hal is a second party to Nintendo, it also has hundreds of employees.
It is already a good example of his ability to manage these hundreds of employees in an orderly manner and unite manner.
Yamauchi Hiroshi had also said before that Iwada Satoshi came to Nintendo, but Iwada Satoshi once had the enlightenment of being a hal who was a hal who died and a ghost who was a hal who died.
Now that Hal's debt has completely exploded, it has given Hiroshi Yamauchi a chance.
He asked Hal to "sacrifice" Iwada Satoshi to himself. In return for providing tribute, Hiroshi Yamauchi provided an interest-free loan to help Hal overcome the difficulties.
Iwata Satoshi himself has been "dead" once, so he can definitely come to Nintendo to play.
Of course, this matter is not that simple, but more complicated.
But how complicated can it be?
Originally, Hal was Nintendo's second party, and Iwada spent no less time in Nintendo than Hal.
