Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 21 Super IP [Happy Chinese New Year! 】

[On the occasion of the Spring Festival, I would like to send my blessings to all book lovers. I wish everyone good health, relatives and friends are safe and happy, and work smoothly. No matter when you read it, I hope this simple blessing will come true. 】

————The dividing line of blessing———

According to the information given by Yukio Tanaka, Hideki Hanyu contacted this accounting firm called "Sanyou".

Because Yukio Tanaka introduced him, and he is also a well-known writer, the other party’s willingness to cooperate was very high, so we made an appointment for an hour and then had a detailed discussion at a teahouse in Shibuya.

Even though the tea room was not far from his apartment and it was very convenient to take the subway, Hanyu Hideki still called a taxi.

The moment he got into the taxi, he couldn't help sighing in his heart. He used to travel by subway, but now he doesn't even bother to go to the subway station when he has money. It really is easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.

Think about the royalties of his two picture books plus the authorization of suit design. In just two months, the money in his bank account has exceeded 2000 million yen.

Neon has just undergone economic take-off, but has not yet entered the era of crazy bubbles. Although the average salary of office workers in Tokyo leads Neon, it is only around 300 million a year.

An annual salary of 300 million does not mean that you can save 300 million. Tokyo is the most prosperous city in neon, and it is also the city with the highest consumption of neon.

If you are single with an annual salary of 300 million, you can save half of it and you can live frugally. If you are married and have children and have a family to support, even a little accident is not enough for the family expenses.

What's more, many young white-collar workers who have just joined the job actually earn a monthly salary of only 10,000+ yen, which is often not enough to support themselves.

Many people think that the income of neon is high, and they have lost the concept of the amount of money.

In the movie "The Gate of Youth" starring Keiko Matsuzaka, the actress Kaoru Sugita, who played the role of Makie, had to sell herself to Toei just because of the "huge" debt of 300 million yen. She was about to show up in the movie at the age of 16 Appearance.

Even in the craziest era of the bubble economy, the annual income of high-quality men in the eyes of neon women only needs 1000 million yen.

So he earned 2000 million in two months, which may not be enough compared to the above, but it is definitely more than enough compared to the next.

"It seems that when you buy a house, you should consider buying a car. After all, in a few years, you won't be able to hail a taxi with [-] yuan bills."

While thinking, the taxi had already taken him to his destination.

Entering the tea house, looking at the quiet and elegant decoration, located in such a bustling area, there is a feeling of tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle.

After being seated, a dedicated tea artist came up to serve soon.

The person from Sanyou Accounting Firm didn't show up, and he didn't know much about tea ceremony, but he heard that Yanai Masa was very good at it, so he didn't know if he would have the opportunity to drink the tea made by the richest man in the future.

In this era without mobile phones, one can only think wildly when sitting alone, and can't chat with the tea master Obasan.

Now that the publicity work is over, if he wants to really relax, he really doesn't know what to do other than go to the training room to dance. In this day and age, entertainment methods are really scarce.

Let’s play video games. Today’s arcade machines are not only bulky, but the games are also very boring. The familiar FC red and white machines will not be launched by Nintendo until two years later, and the Game Boy handheld will not be launched until 89.

what!
When I think of Nintendo's Game Boy handheld, I immediately think of a yellow mouse, and the most profitable IP in the world, Pokémon.

If I remember correctly, this is a super IP with a future revenue of more than 1000 billion U.S. dollars. Even if the revenue from games, animations, and comics is removed, the revenue from peripheral derivatives alone will exceed 700 billion U.S. dollars.

With so much money, his mouth is watering just thinking about it. Just one bite is enough for him to sell picture books for a lifetime. Yanai Masa's net worth is only 61 billion US dollars, ten times less than Pokémon.

Since he thought of this kind of super gold mine, it would be a pity for him not to get involved as a time traveler.

In a place like Neon, where copyright protection is extremely strict, as a writer, it is not easy to grab an IP.

Thinking of the children's novel I had imagined before, it seems that I have to change it for the IP of Pokémon.

Hideki Hanyu thought so hard about how to use Pokémon. Not only did he not notice that the tea was cold, but he didn't even know that the people from Sanyou Accounting Firm had come.

"Hanyu-san, Hanyu-san, is it Hanyu-san..."

He didn't recover until he was called several times.

Then I saw that among the two people from Sanyou Accounting Firm, the shrewd middle-aged man at the head obviously just suppressed the unhappy expression on his face.

"Ah, I am, I'm very sorry, I was thinking about the content of the new work just now, and I was too engrossed."

Continuing to use his status as a writer as an excuse has been unsuccessful, and besides, he didn't deliberately refuse to agree, it was indeed because he was too focused on thinking.

"Hanyu-san, this is the first time we meet, I am Kameda Ichiro, a senior financial advisor of Sanyou Accounting Firm."

Kameda Ichiro said and pointed to a young man with black-rimmed glasses and an ordinary appearance.

"This is my assistant, Yoshihiro Yada."

"Kameda-san, Yada-san, you... Hello, I am Hideki Hanyu"

Hearing the other party's name, Hanyu Hideki almost couldn't help laughing, Kameda Ichiro, this name reminded him of the days when he accompanied his mother to watch dramas in his previous life.

However, after realizing the gaffe, Hanyu Hideki still felt a little sorry, and hurriedly apologized sincerely, "I'm very sorry, Kameda-san, I suddenly remembered a happy thing."

"it does not matter."

Although he was polite in his mouth, Kameda Ichiro was not like that in his heart.

The self-proclaimed elite Kameda Ichiro already looked down on someone like Hideki Hanyu who has no education and has been an idol.

I feel that the other party is lucky enough to become a writer, and I am very tired of Hideki Hanyu's subsequent exposure in the media.

Coupled with the ignorance when they met, and the gaffe at this time, Kameda Ichiro looked down on Hanyu Hideki even more.

If it weren't for the earning power brought by Hideki Hanyu's status as a writer, what qualifications would the other party have for him to serve.

"Does Hanyu-san need our help because of financial problems?"

With prejudice in his heart, Kameda Ichiro put on a more elite appearance on the surface after he started working, and his words unconsciously became more condescending, and the consultation turned into help.

"Yes."

At first, Hanyu Hideki didn't care about the other party's tone.

But what made him upset was that before he could express his thoughts, the other party spoke again.
"I have a lot of financial management projects that I can recommend..."

Immediately afterwards, Ichiro Kameda began to introduce various financial management methods, such as bonds, futures, stocks, and foreign fund investment.

When introducing him, he did not forget to boast about his success stories, which famous clients he has in hand, and how much money he has helped these people earn.

In short, I just keep showing off my business ability, as if I am so great, it is your honor for you to give me the money you earn for investment.

The problem is, Hideki Hanyu is not interested in these things. He is a dignified time traveler who has mastered the time difference for more than 40 years. He needs a so-called financial consultant to help him manage money?

But whenever he asked questions that he wanted to know, such as setting up an office or investing in real estate, Ichiro Kameda always talked about him, and continued to bring the topic to other financial management projects.

On the contrary, the assistant Yada Ryohiro on the side would answer a question or two from Hideki Hanyu from time to time.

This Yada Ryohiro looked like a freshman who had just come out of school. To be honest, he didn't wink at all. He didn't pay attention to the angry eyes of Kameda Ichiro next to him when he was talking. He probably would be educated by his seniors when he went back.

Hanyu Hideki talked with Kameda Ichiro for a long time, and finally saw that there was something wrong with the person in front of him.

After all, when you talk about business, you are perfunctory, and you always want to bring the topic to various financial management methods, with an attitude that if you are an idiot, don't even think about investing yourself, just leave it to me.

It's okay once, but when he comes again and again, no matter how good-tempered he is, he's still a little furious.

It was the age of youth and vigor, how could he care about the so-called etiquette rules of the neon society, so he turned his face on the spot.

"I'm not interested in the nonsense you said, there's no need to talk."

After finishing speaking, he ignored Kameda Ichiro's expression of "how dare you say that" on his face, got up and left directly.

When he came to this world, he has been suppressing the feeling of looking down from the traveler, fearing that this feeling will make him treat all the people around him as NPCs, and then lose his ability to judge things, but there are always fools who take this feeling To inspire.

Before leaving, he deliberately settled the bill, even though he knew that the other party must have entertainment fees, but he didn't want to take advantage of this kind of person.
