Ooooooooo..  I can see it  now.  Shuhei Yoshida gets off the plane and enters a limo.  First stop, Headquarters!  The limo pulls up, Shuhei Yoshida steps out, the current head honcho greets him, bows and presents his hand, Shuhei Yoshida bows, shakes hand, and says, "YOUR FIRED!", and then proceeds to fire the whole group of upper management along with the head of Human Resources.  Then 2 weeks later, layoffs happen as a cost cutting measure and a "refocus/LEAN" period starts.   Sony must not be that profitable right now.
