    While your translation really drives that point home it’s ridiculous that it’s barely even necessary. Like, he’s just saying it outright.

    It’s not “we need to invest in indie studios to build our reputation in that sector” it’s “we want prestige and awards”. The wording is slight but obvious. Business people are such wastes of time and energy.

      The way you get prestige and awards is having the occasional experimental flop, though. You don’t get either of those for making Generic Military Shooter #98749372, even if that’s where the money is. Prestige is something that takes a long time to build.
