Extraordinary Genius

2043. 2043 chapter Norio Ohga’s end

“President, Lenovo’s L-PAD has introduced a new model, dual-core, memory has become bigger, and there is still a fingerprint lock! Will our new tablet be listed? Or will we lower some prices?”

Norio Ohga looks at the contrast between Sony’s new tablet and the new L-PAD. The gap is a bit big.

Lower selling prices may increase some sales, but the profit of single products will be seriously reduced, and Sony’s brand will be downgraded.

However, if the price is not lowered, the product sales will not be high, and the overall profit may be lower, which also has a negative impact on Sony’s brand.

If you don’t introduce it for a while, and then upgrade the product hardware and so on, you can avoid this situation. But Sony has already produced a batch, and these products are not sold, and it is also a loss.

Norio Ohga feels a headache, and Sony has become so passive now. Last year, Sony’s revenue and profits dropped sharply, and eventually it lost money. This year’s revenue and profits are still falling, so that by the end of the year, I am afraid that Sony will lose money as it did last year, and will lose more.

Norio Ohga pulled Sony out of the quagmire of losing money, but couldn’t guarantee that Sony had always made money. Sony Pictures hasn’t had a big block for a few years now, and the decline in disc sales is also serious. The loss of money this year is certain.

Sony’s electronics products, video game sales continued to decline sharply, and now G-BOX sales first, Nintendo second, they ranked third.

Because the two 3D games that were launched were very popular, Sony fell behind on this point. They are also studying, but the market has already been occupied by others, and they have changed from leaders to followers.

In terms of mobile phones, Sony’s sales decline is also serious. Several new mobile phones have been launched. Whether it is a function machine or a smart machine, the response is not awkward, and the development and promotion costs have not been spent.

Electronic paper books are already selling in other markets. Only Japan has a little market, but it can’t make money. An AIWA, they don’t want to top.

The computer business has become even worse, not only because Sony’s own computer sales have fallen, but the Thinkpad, which was acquired from IBM, is getting worse.

Norio Ohga found that becoming a strategic partner with Microsoft seems to be a disadvantage for them. Other PC makers can get around, but they can only provide PCs with WIN7 or VISTA systems pre-installed, which has caused them to lose many customers.

I finally studied a tablet that I think is not bad. I plan to turn it over. As a result, the Lenovo Group has also introduced new models, and the performance has been greatly improved, making their tablets become mediocre again.

Not to mention the electrical appliances, the TV business has begun to lose money, whether it is plasma or LCD, they are in a backward stage, they are all the first echelon, or even the leader, in just a few years, They are being opened by other companies.

Fortunately, digital video cameras and digital cameras are not bad, but they are not as good as before. Especially after the smartphone can take pictures or even take pictures, the entry-level products are facing elimination, which seriously affects Sony’s profits.

There are many other products that are less profitable and lose more money. Sony has no fist products now, which is unimaginable.

Once, Sony defeated many rivals and even swallowed each other, such as SEGA in the video game industry, as well as some movies, Record Company and so on.

They have a wide variety of businesses, with electronic entertainment as the core, and they believe that they will last forever.

But nowadays their electronic entertainment can’t drive the sales of other products. Sony’s Corporation is also divided too much, and the staff is bloated, which seriously drags down the development of the Corporation.

When Norio Ohga was still thinking about how to reverse the Corporation, he was told to attend the temporary Board of Directors. Everyone knows that Sony’s new tablet, which was researched during this time, is not yet on the market, and it is already destined to hit the street.

This Board of Directors, all the board members came, the temporary Board of Directors, people come so close, which makes Norio Ohga feel something wrong.

“Norio Ohga, there is one thing to announce at this Board of Directors. The original president and CEO of the Sony Group are all you are working on. Now through the Board of Directors research, I think that Hirai has the ability to be outstanding and trustworthy, so Hirai The second husband will serve as the CEO of the Sony group.”

Norio Ohga’s eyes leaped, this is not to let him give up half of the power problem, but to let him leave Sony. Hirai Hiroyuki first became CEO, and after a while, the president will also serve.

His last appointment was made by him. After not being the president and CEO of the Sony group, he left Sony completely. Could it be that he also wants to leave Sony?

“Hiroshi Hirai? He is the CEO? Do you think he is suitable? I think that Sheng Tianhou is very suitable, and he should be the position.”

Sheng Tianhou is the nephew of Sony Founder Akio Morita. Norio Ohga launched this person, the decision to mess up the Board of Directors.

“Norio Ohga, Board of Directors has been considered all over the place, and Sheng Tian Hou is also good, but will replace the original position of Hirai Kazuo.” Sony Group Chairman, Kutaragi said.

Norio Ohga hated the look of Kutaragi, when the president and CEO you chose had a business error that caused Sony to lose money and then left the black pot.

It was me who turned the tide and let Sony regain its profit. I made your position a lot stronger.

How did you promise me? You should retire three years ago, then give me the position of Chairman. As a result, you didn’t recommend me at all, but chose to do it again.

And you actually recommended Howard Stringer as the vice Chairman and don’t recommend me. Is this your compliment to me? That is a foreigner, do you believe that foreigners do not believe me?

Now that Sony has problems with its operations, why not give me time, it only takes two years, and I can let Sony regain its glory!

Kutaragi Muji does not look at Norio Ohga at all. It is not Norio Ohga who is going to take a black pot. Is it his Chairman’s back to the pot?

Although Chairman’s important decision was made, his Chairman agreed, but things were failed, and someone must take responsibility.

The acquisition of IBM’s PC business was decided by Norio Ohga? Is the strategic alliance with Microsoft determined by Norio Ohga? Is the decision to expand the mobile phone business by Norio Ohga?

In any case, Norio Ohga is unqualified as president and CEO. After Mr. Hirai is familiar with the work, let Norio Ohga roll!
