Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 316 New Ideas for Electronic Pets
Why didn’t Hanyu Hideki let Jinbo Eiichi go to the real estate market?

Because after the Plaza Accord was signed.

The real estate market followed suit.

Big financial groups and Ji Dao all came in swarm.

He had already entered the market and bought a lot of real estate, so there was no need to join in the fun at this time.

After the bubble, the bubble in the neon financial market was blown to the sky, and the prosperity was a mess.

When ordinary Neon people speculate in stocks, their average annual return rate can reach 20.00%.

He has a professional team of his own to operate, and the rate of return can be imagined.

After all, in this mature and huge market, the means of capital allocation, financing and other operations have long been equally mature.

Moreover, he has been managing contacts in Neon for so many years, so he can barely be considered half of his home team.

You don't need to be as careful as America when doing things.

So there is no need to join the other “wolves” in the fierce real estate market at this time.

I don’t know whether I will earn more or less.

Unintentionally offending some guys will definitely cause a mess.

Take Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

During the bubble period, when Tsutsumi Yoshiaki was at his most prosperous, he was crowned the richest man in the world.

It claims to own one-sixth of Neon's land.

As a result, the foam burst and he was knocked out into the dust.

Before he was imprisoned, he was denounced by countless ordinary people as the executioner who drove up Japan's housing prices.

Such a super rich man suddenly fell apart.

The public reputation is in shambles, and all kinds of black materials have been exposed.

How is it possible to say that no one is operating behind the scenes?

At that time, the Internet had not yet developed.

How can ordinary people have the ability to uncover the dark history of such a rich man?

Think of Yoshiaki Tsutsumi’s domineering behavior in real estate investments.

It's not hard to guess why he offended those people.

Why did real estate attract so much attention during the bubble period?

Simply because real estate is banks' favorite collateral.

Bonds are better than stocks.

With a large number of properties, you can use this to leverage massive amounts of funds.

Seibu Group has made various investments that have not been short of money in those years.

That’s not all money comes from.

Hanyu Hideki has never liked to get involved in such public criticism.

September 27th.

Four days have passed since the signing of the Plaza Accord.

Honda Yishi reported to him.

Except for some operational matters that need to be discussed with him in person.

Also tell Hideki Hanyu the profit situation by the way.

After summarizing all the accounts under their control, yesterday's book income exceeded US$5000 million for the first time.

In four days, Hanyu Hideki made $[-] million.

To be honest, Hideki Hanyu was in a daze at this speed of making money.

In a few days, we can catch up with the profits of Elf Entertainment last year.

Fortunately, operations are carried out on multiple foreign exchange platforms around the world.

If everything is concentrated in the New York foreign exchange market, the FBI's Economic Crimes Division will invite him to tea.

After Honda's report, he hurried back to Wall Street.

Although the operator there is Jinbo Eiichi, the person in charge is actually Honda Kazushi.

For example, the bodyguards responsible for guarding security, such as if someone wants to enter or exit the operation room, are all managed by Honda Honda.

Therefore, although Honda Yishi does not participate in specific operations.

But the effect is not small at all.

He is more trusted by Hanyu Hideki than Jinbo Eiichi.

As for why Hideki Hanyu didn’t go to Wall Street in person today.

There is really too much work pressure these days, and those people are all trapped in one place. They are all depressed and playing a little crazy.

Taking drugs, looking for models, hysterical...

When Hanyu Hideki was checking the lounge yesterday, he almost accidentally stepped on a small balloon.

But Hideki Hanyu can also understand.

This is just like a little boy who has no experience at the beginning and only knows how to rush forward recklessly and pursue temporary happiness.

Once you get used to the rhythm and become an experienced driver, you will know how to enjoy the process.

He won't be as excited as he was at the beginning.

But understanding is understanding.

When Honda left, he still ordered to strengthen management.

The most important thing now is to make money.

After the weather is calm, you can play however you want.

When the time comes, go directly to South America to book a holiday island, find a plane with South American models, and play there for as long as you want.

After listening carefully to Hanyu Hideki's explanation, Honda said goodbye and left.

The other party just left.

The door to the suite bedroom was pushed open.

Monica Bellucci in silk suspender pajamas.

Swaying her graceful figure, she walked out charmingly.

The female secretary was still very discerning. Seeing that Hanyu Hideki was busy with business, she didn't come out even after getting up.

"BOSS, you got up really early today."

"Is it early? It's already time for breakfast."

"I rested so late yesterday, I thought the boss would sleep a little longer."

"Are you questioning my physical ability? I can stay up all night without any problem. Do you want to give it a try?"

Hanyu Hideki took "Ball Flower" into his arms and said deliberately viciously.

"That was not what I meant……"

The Italian female secretary said pretending to be scared.

"My puppy is so cute."

Hideki Hanyu said, slowly lifting the female secretary's chin, "You have learned to dance before, right?"

"I've learned a little bit," the female secretary replied.

"Show me the jump." Hideki Hanyu pointed in front of him.

"now?"

"Immediately." Hanyu Hideki said in an irrefutable tone.

The beautiful female secretary gave Hanyu Hideki a charming look.

Then he walked up to Hanyu Hideki, his exquisite body dancing like a water snake.

Silk pajama straps.

Falling slowly.

……

After "dancing" with the female secretary in the living room of the suite.

Call the hotel housekeeper to prepare lunch for them.

Then he asked the beautiful female secretary who had already changed into a professional suit.

"When will your cousin arrive?"

The female secretary immediately took out her notebook, checked the previously determined time and replied, "Three o'clock in the afternoon."

Seeing the other party's professional appearance, he was completely different from when he was dancing just now.

Hanyu Hideki couldn't help but sigh.

Does he think this is a secretary? If he has something to do, he will be a secretary. If he has nothing to do, he will be the secretary.

"Let the hotel prepare a small conference room to meet with them."

Hanyu Hideki ordered.

He had absolutely no friendship with Federica or that Billy Lynn.

Naturally, there will be no reception in the room.

After lunch, Hanyu Hideki took a short rest and then went for fitness and swimming as usual.

After finishing your workout.

The female secretary happened to come to inform him that Federica and that Billy Lynn had arrived.

"I'm going right now."

After changing into casual clothes, Hideki Hanyu was led by his female secretary to the small conference room on the first floor of the hotel.

A few doors later, we saw Federica and Billy Lynn.

Compared with the meeting more than half a year ago, the two of them looked obviously more haggard.

Come to think of it, life has not been easy lately.

Nadia, the daughter, seems to have fallen in love with this Wall Street man.

I would rather live a hard life with a man than go home.

However, in America during this period, young people were mainly rebellious.

Drugs, rock and roll, sexual liberation...

"Hello Mr. Hanyu, it's a great honor to meet you."

The two stood up to greet Hanyu Hideki.

After all, "Forbes" magazine reported on Hideki Hanyu.

Billy Lynn, who is most sensitive to money, has become deeply aware of how rich Hideki Hanyu is.

To be blunt, if it weren't for the relationship of Monica Bellucci.

A small guy like him on Wall Street has no chance to interact with someone like Hideki Hanyu who can be on the rich list.

Hanyu Hideki nodded as a greeting.

After sitting down, he looked at his watch.

He said very directly, "No need to be polite, you only have three and 10 minutes."

"Mr. Hanyu, let me first introduce myself to you. My name is Billy Lynn. I used to work at..."

Despite time constraints, Billy Lynn introduced his resume to Hanyu Hideki.

I don’t know if it’s true or not, but it sounds beautiful.

"I have resigned now and am preparing to start my own business. I happen to have a few good projects on hand. Mr. Hanyu can take a look at them. If anyone is interested, I can help you contact them."

After Billy Lynn finished speaking, he took out the information he had prepared in advance.

Obviously, the other party came prepared.

Monica Bellucci took the folder containing the information and handed it to Hideki Hanyu.

After Hanyu Hideki opened it, he found it after a few glances.

This Billy Lynn has done a lot.

There are various financial investment projects.

We also compiled information on some start-ups that are seeking investment.

It can be understood that he is helping these start-ups find investors.

To put it bluntly, they are just "pimps" who help these companies attract their bosses.

Hideki Hanyu is not very interested in projects such as financial management and investment.

On the contrary, he was curious about the information of start-up companies that were looking for investment, and wanted to take a look.

After all, he didn't know much about the companies started in this era. If he could see something familiar to later generations, it wouldn't be impossible to invest some money in advance.

This time I made a fortune by relying on foreign exchange, and I always had to find a way to spend the money.

Billy Lynn was very smart. When he ranked the information about start-up companies, he put companies that seemed to be high-quality at the front.

Let Hideki Hanyu see it from the beginning.

If he puts bad company information first, Hanyu Hideki may soon lose his patience.

And time is limited, leaving high-quality companies behind.

If half an hour is up and he still hasn't seen the person behind him, then his visit was in vain.

But what Billy Lynn didn't expect was that Hideki Hanyu read the information very quickly.

Some companies' information, often just look at a name, and just turn over.

This made Billy Lynn's heart sink.

He could tell that Hanyu Hideki was not interested in the initial investment and financial management content.

If he is also not interested in investing in start-up companies later, then the meeting opportunity he finally got will be wasted.

Especially when Hideki Hanyu has turned to the last part of the information.

This part of the start-up company information was not of interest to investors, so he found it to make up the numbers.

In Billy Lynn's opinion.

Hanyu Hideki didn't like the high-quality companies in front of him.

Hanyu Hideki is even less likely to be interested in the latter.

Just when Billy Lynn became more and more discouraged and felt that this meeting was going to be in vain.

Hideki Hanyu has turned to the last start-up company information.

But he didn't close the folder immediately.

Instead, he looked at the company name on the information and sat up straight unconsciously.

【Cisco Systems】

What a familiar name.

He pushed the information onto the table in front of him and said directly, "Tell me about this company."

Billy Lynn had no idea that Hideki Hanyu would become interested in a start-up company he was using to make up money.

I was so surprised that I forgot to answer for a moment.

Federica next to her quickly pushed her boyfriend.

Hanyu Hideki was reading the information just now. She was more nervous than her boyfriend.

She knew her boyfriend's situation very well. He lost his job due to mistakes in his original company.

Starting a business was quite difficult.

Not only did he not make any money, he also owed a lot of foreign debt.

Meeting the super-rich Hideki Hanyu through his cousin was her boyfriend's last hope.

By the way, for this meeting, she and her boyfriend haven't had a good rest for the past few days, and all their energy has been used to prepare materials.

Seeing that Hanyu Hideki finally became interested.

Her boyfriend lost control at the critical moment, and she was a little anxious.

After being pushed by Federica, Billy Lynn finally reacted.

"Mr. Hanyu, I'm very sorry."

After speaking, he looked at the name of the company on the information in front of him.

Try to remember the details of this company.

Trying to find some advantages to attract Hideki Hanyu to invest.

But it happened that this company was brought in by him to make up the numbers.

He never thought of being able to succeed at all, so what he knew was not much more than what was in the documents.

However, Billy Lynn's ability to toss around on Wall Street is somewhat quick-witted.

An idea flashed in his mind, and he thought that if the positive approach didn't work, then he would do the opposite.

Billy Lynn's thoughts were racing, and the words were coming out of his mouth at the same time.

“Mr. Hanyu, I have to tell you one thing, that is, this company has been rejected by more than forty venture capital investors before recommending it to you.

But it is precisely because of this that I introduce it to you, because I think the founder of this company has a spirit of refusing to admit defeat.

They started a business in their living room, but with unprecedented entrepreneurial passion, they..."

Billy Lynn talked a lot.

The details about the specific operations of this company are extremely detailed.

Take the initiative to praise the founder.

Trying to get Hideki Hanyu interested in investing around this point.

In fact, Hideki Hanyu did not have high hopes for the introduction of Billy Lynn.

A Wall Street man would be damned if he could understand such a company.

Because this is Cisco.

A company whose market value will exceed US$5000 billion in the future.

Although he pulled his hips behind, he was beaten by Huawei and lost his armor.

Policy protection is needed to hold on to the American market.

But future events will not have any impact on Hanyu Hideki’s current investment.

At worst, you can just cash out in advance and run away.

Besides, in addition to its stock price, Cisco's profitability is also impressive.

Around 2000, it seemed that annual revenue exceeded $200 billion.

So Billy Lynn kept talking, but Hanyu Hideki didn't hear a word in his mind.

Until Monica Bellucci reminded him, "BOSS, three and ten minutes are up."

After hearing Monica Bellucci's words, Billy Lynn stopped the introduction.

Together with his girlfriend, they looked at Hideki Hanyu expectantly.

That way, they were like students waiting for the teacher to announce their results.

Can the project be negotiated?

It was so important to Billy Lynn.

It doesn't matter at all how much money he makes on the project.

It’s okay to not even make money.

The important thing is that with a successful project, he can tell stories to other people.

Wall Street was originally a place where people made money by making up stories.

Hanyu Hideki looked at the two of them and said after a while of silence.

"I'm somewhat interested in this company. Can you arrange for me to meet with the founder?"

As soon as Hanyu Hideki said this, Billy Lynn quickly replied, "Of course, Mr. Hanyu wants to meet whenever he wants."

"After I finish my work in New York, you should contact this company first. I plan to visit the living room where they started their business in person."

After speaking, he looked at the information and said, "It's in San Francisco, right."

"Yes, both of them still work part-time at Stanford University."

Billy Lynn replied.

"That's it. If Mr. Billy has any news, you can contact my secretary. I'll take my leave now."

After Hideki Hanyu finished speaking, he left the conference room.

But before he could go far, Federica and Billy Lynn cheered in the conference room.

After Hideki Hanyu heard the sound, he said to the female secretary, "Haha, Monica, your cousin seems to be having a very unhappy life."

The female secretary replied, "I don't know much about my cousin's situation, but I am very grateful to BOSS for helping them."

"Help? How do you know I'm not really interested in that company?"

Hideki Hanyu said something that Monica Bellucci couldn’t figure out.

……

Next, Hideki Hanyu continued to pay attention to the foreign exchange market in New York.

And after Billy Lynn received Hideki Hanyu's commitment.

He rushed to San Francisco as soon as possible and found Leonard Bosak and Sandy Lerner, the founders of Cisco.

At the same time, he also saw with his own eyes the process of the couple manufacturing products in the living room.

With such a situation, it’s no wonder that I was rejected so many times by venture capital companies.

After Billy Lynn told the couple about Hanyu's interest in Cisco.

The husband and wife who relied on overdraft credit cards and borrowed loans to support the operation of Cisco were naturally extremely happy.

But after they were happy, they told Billy Lynn a bad news.

That's because of his tenure at Stanford University.

The funding for their development of "multi-protocol routers" also came from Stanford University.

To some extent, the product patent should belong to Stanford University.

So, this is a company that seems to have no future.

Make products in your own living room.

The company may also be sued over patents from Stanford University at any time.

In an instant, Billy Lynn had a deeper understanding of Cisco's more than 40 rejections from venture capital.

Not to mention investors.

Even he would not be interested in such a company.

But the problem is that he has been wasting it for so long.

Hideki Hanyu was the only life-saving straw he could hold on to.

So even if Cisco is a piece of shit, he still has to sell it to Hideki Hanyu.

"Mr. Billy, you said that the investor wants to come and visit us. Do you need me to find a decent production workshop?"

Leonard Bosak tried to ask.

"Please do not."

Billy Lynn quickly refused.

He looked at the messy room and said, "This is what you want. The only thing you can impress investors with now is your spirit..."

In this way, Billy Lynn began to help Cisco's founder couple design a series of features that could impress Hideki Hanyu.

Meanwhile, far away in Neon.

Uemura Reiko received a message from the intermediary company.

Liu's mother's entry procedures for America have been processed.

However, you need to make a transfer in Neon.Uemura Reiko has no objection, after all, as long as she can send people to America.

The agent said that if everything goes well, we can arrive in America in three days.

Uemura Reiko looked at the calendar.

Three days later it was already October.

and many more……

I saw today’s date, it’s September 29th.

Uemura Reiko suddenly remembered something that Hanyu Hideki told her before he left.

She immediately picked up the phone and dialed an Osaka number.

After the call was connected, she told the other party, "Have you forgotten what the boss told you?"

"Don't worry, Uemura-san, I've already made arrangements."

"That's good."

After reminding her, Reiko Uemura hung up the phone and continued busy with her own affairs.

Time came to the second day.

It is also the last day of September.

This day is not a special day for many people.

But in Neon Kansai, Takarazuka City, Hyogo Prefecture.

Today is particularly lively.

Especially near the Takarazuka Opera House, a large number of people gathered.

These people are here for one thing.

That is Mao Daichi, the chief "boy" of the Takarazuka Opera Troupe's moon group.

and the chief "maid" Hitomi Kuroki.

The two most popular groups in Takarazuka today will leave the group together today.

These people are all their fans, and they specially came to witness the two's resignation ceremony.

Of course, most people are fans of Mao Daichi.

After all, "boys" who dress up as men have always been the most attractive to fans.

And Mao Daichi's popularity is one of the highest among the Takarazuka men's war today.

The Takarazuka Opera House also plans to make another profit after the two of them quit the group.

Not only did the ceremony sell tickets, but they also took the opportunity to sell various farewell gifts.

Flowers, flower baskets, dolls, fans...

There are many tricks, just to sell money.

When the ceremony began, the person in charge of Takarazuka soon received a special gift.

Courtesy of a local sponsoring business.

The gift was given to Hitomi Kuroki.

When the resignation ceremony came to an end.

Mao Daichi and Hitomi Kuroki said their final farewells to their fans and then left the stage together.

Backstage, Mao Daichi said to Hitomi Kuroki, "Hitomi-chan, it's time to say goodbye."

The tone was full of reluctance.

Hitomi Kuroki is going to Tokyo to develop, while Mao Daichi contacted a musical troupe in Kansai and prepared to continue his career in musicals.

Starting from school, to the official stage in Takarazuka.

The two partners and friends who have worked closely together for so many years have finally come to say goodbye.

"Yes, I have to say goodbye to Dadi-san."

"I hope everything goes well for Hitomi-chan in Tokyo."

"Same goes for Daichi-san."

After the two said their goodbyes, Mao Daichi left first.

Kuroki Hitomi walked behind.

But just as Hitomi Kuroki walked out of the theater.

The person in charge caught up with him.

Put a handful of flowers into Kuroki Hitomi's hands.

Kuroki Hitomi was a little strange. Although the fans' flowers were bought for them, they would still be recycled by the troupe.

Seemingly seeing Kuroki Hitomi's doubts, the person in charge explained.

"This was handed over by a sponsoring company, and it was said that it must be handed over to Kuroki-san."

"That's it. Thank you very much, Your Excellency."

"You're welcome."

After the person in charge left, Kuroki Hitomi looked at the flowers in her hands.

A very large bouquet of lilies.

looks beautiful.

But the most important thing is that there is something wrapped in white paper on top of this bouquet.

Kuroki Hitomi returned to the hotel with the flowers in her arms and took out the things wrapped in white paper.

Tear open the white paper.

When Kuromu Hitomi saw what was inside, his eyes instantly turned red.

Something she tried so hard to forget.

It suddenly came to mind again.

……

Time turned and the calendar turned to October.

Hideki Hanyu remains in New York.

And a plane flying directly from Neon to America landed at Los Angeles International Airport.

Liu Xiaoli's mother, who was holding a travel bag in her hand, heard someone calling her as soon as she walked out of the airport exit.

Following the sound, Zhou Wenqiong was jumping up and down and waving his hands.

"Aunt, here."

When Liu's mother walked out, Zhou Wenqiong also walked towards Liu's mother.

As soon as the two met, Zhou Wenqiong hugged Mother Liu happily and said, "Auntie, I miss you so much."

Mother Liu said angrily, "Huh, if you want, I'll pry open the window of my house."

"It was cut, not pried." Zhou Wenqiong defended.

"Stinky girl, you have the nerve to say that when you go back, let's see how your mother handles you. If you don't want such a good job, then you won't want it."

"I'm not doing this to take care of my cousin."

Zhou Wenqiong said as she took the travel bag from Mother Liu's hand.

Instead, he handed it over to a tall, dark-skinned woman beside her.

"Tisip, please."

Only then did Liu's mother realize that there was a woman following them.

Looking at the woman's neat temperament and cold expression.

Mother Liu couldn't help but ask, "Who is she?"

"The bodyguard arranged by my brother-in-law is named Tisip, who is from Laos." Zhou Wenqiong explained.

"Brother-in-law? You're so easy to call someone, so it seems like he calls you a lot."

In fact, Liu's mother had no objections to Hanyu Hideki.

After a trip to Neon, she probably expected what would happen.

Such an outstanding, talented, and wealthy man is so kind to his daughter.

Some things really can’t be discussed.

The most important thing is that her daughter is passionately devoted to Hanyu Hideki and is willing to do anything.

It can't be taken apart even if you want to.

She was mainly trying to persuade her husband about the previous matter, hoping to make things right.

If it really didn't work, Zhou Wenqiong wouldn't need to save anyone, she would just let her daughter go.

When Nian teased Liu's mother, Zhou Wenqiong said with a smile, "My cousin already has a child. Why don't I call you brother-in-law?"

"Is Hanyu here?" Mother Liu asked.

"I have been with my sister before, but recently I went to New York for work."

When Zhou Wenqiong explained, they had already walked out of the airport.

Got into the modified Chrysler MPV.

After getting on the bus, Zhou Wenqiong helped Liu's mother adjust the airline seat to a comfortable semi-reclining position.

"Why are you still lying down while riding in the car?" Mother Liu asked a little unaccustomed.

"There is a traffic jam right now. It will take at least more than an hour to get home. Auntie, you have been on a plane for such a long time. Please lie down and rest for a while."

"Xiao Qiong knows this place quite well."

"Well, I'm still relying on America's driver's license recently. My brother-in-law said that I passed the driver's license exam, so he gave me a car."

"Haha, it seems that your brother-in-law is not calling you in vain."

……

While the two were talking, the car slowly drove towards Beverly Hills in the crowded traffic.

Seeing that they were still on the road after a long time, Mother Liu couldn't help but ask, "How long will it take for us to arrive?"

After all, Mother Liu came to America because she heard that her daughter was in poor health.

After finally arriving in America, all I can think about is seeing my daughter as soon as possible.

One can imagine the anxiety in my heart.

Zhou Wenqiong looked at the traffic flow with his head, "It is estimated that it will take another 10 minutes."

After saying that, he hammered his fist in frustration, "If I had known, I would have picked you up on a plane."

"Plane?" Mother Liu thought she heard wrongly.

"Oh, my brother-in-law bought the helicopter specially for my cousin. He said he could use it in emergencies. You will know about it later, aunt."

After hearing what her niece said, Liu's mother was a little confused.

Didn't you say that your daughter was uncomfortable?Are you having a hard time living in an unfamiliar place?

Now it seems that they are both bodyguards and helicopters.

Why is it different from what you imagined?
With doubts, Liu's mother arrived at the mansion on the top of the hills in Beverly Hills 10 minutes later.

Same as Zhou Wenqiong back then.

Look at the hilltop mansion with a panoramic view of Beverly, and the huge helicopter on the roof.

Mother Liu also deeply felt the impact of capitalism.

Immediately afterwards, she saw Liu Xiaoli who was radiant and didn't look uncomfortable at all.

He ran out of the house and hugged her.

"mom……"

Mother Liu looked at her daughter carefully, "Xiaoqiong said that you are not feeling well and you are not familiar with this place, so you dare not tell me..."

Before Liu's mother finished speaking, Zhou Wenqiong immediately said "Oh!"

"Cousin, I'm going to see if Master Ma has prepared lunch. I'm a little hungry."

Then he ran away in a hurry.

At this time, there was no need for her daughter to explain, Mother Liu understood what happened.

She was deceived emotionally by her niece.

Next, when she saw her daughter enjoying the service of the maid and eating meals specially prepared by the private chef.

I thought to myself that my daughter was suffering, and her life was just like that of the empress in ancient times.

After lunch, Liu Xiaoli took her mother for activities in the yard.

Mother Liu, who already knew about her daughter's condition, said, "I feel relieved to see you living so well."

"You shouldn't have worried in the first place. Hanyu is very good to me. Even if I tell you, you still don't believe me."

"Hey, he is different from other rich people."

"Yes, so I am willing." Liu Xiaoli touched her belly with a happy face.

She was less than three months pregnant and her belly still didn't look obvious.

Seeing her daughter like this, Mother Liu had nothing to say.

However, her daughter is "silly", but she has to think about her daughter's future to some extent.

She looked at her daughter's belly and whispered, "I wish this was a boy."

"I wish it was a girl." Liu Xiaoli said.

"What?"

"Hanyu said he likes girls."

"You silly girl." Mother Liu said angrily.

She felt that her daughter's brain was completely hopeless.

While the mother and daughter were talking, they happened to walk to the side of the swimming pool.

I saw Zhou Wenqiong swimming happily in the swimming pool.

Zhou Wenqiong just surfaced and greeted the two of them.

"Aunt, cousin, have you finished talking?"

Seeing her niece wearing a swimsuit that exposed everything, Liu's mother couldn't help but say.

"Xiao Wen, you are shameless. What if Yu Sheng comes back suddenly?"

"Come back as soon as you come back. It's not like I haven't seen him before." Zhou Wenqiong said nonchalantly.

"You girl..."

"Auntie, you are so strange. There are many women on the beach here without clothes."

"Tell me!"

"Haha."

Zhou Wenqiong smiled and got into the water again.

……

new York.

St. Regis Hotel, Hanyu Hideki's room.

The female secretary is reporting to Hideki Hanyu.

"Mr. Billy said that San Francisco has been contacted, and BOSS is ready to go anytime."

Hanyu Hideki calculated the time and explained.

"That's four days later. I'll go to Wall Street tomorrow to make some work arrangements, and then return to California."

"Okay." The female secretary wrote down the time.

At that time, she would need to contact San Francisco in advance to determine what time to meet that day.

After recording, the female secretary added, "Mr. Satoru Iwata called me this morning to ask when BOSS will return to Neon."

"I can go back at the end of this month."

Hideki Hanyu said.

Hideki Hanyu can easily guess that Satoru Iwata must be listed on Neon for the PS console.

After all, compared to America, which has been working hard for many years, Neon is Nintendo’s home field.

The launch of the PS console is destined to be a tough battle.

The most critical thing is that it is restricted by the neon advertising law.

Like America, they directly said publicly on TV that compared to the PS console, the Nintendo FC is a garbage advertisement and cannot be used at all.

That’s why Hideki Hanyu had to prepare a disk drive and two Japanese RPG games.

Don’t underestimate the impact of games on console sales.

In another time and space, the final outcome of the history of console hegemony proves one thing.

Players buy consoles for games.

Rather than buying games for the console.

In the original time and space, the total cartridge sales of the first generation "The Legend of Zelda" and "Dragon Quest" exceeded 800 million copies.

In this time and space, only one tenth of the people in Neon are willing to buy these two games.

That also means 80 PS consoles were sold.

Today, the sales of Nintendo FC consoles in Neon are only close to 500 million units.

Therefore, the impact of a successful game on console sales is completely immeasurable.

Not to mention, compared to two new games.

Elf Entertainment has more than one or two ace games.

Therefore, Hanyu Hideki believes that regardless of the initial sales of PS consoles in Neon.

All will win in the end.

As for why he decided to return to Neon at the end of the month.

It's because I'm waiting for something.

That is, Boeing has officially informed him that on October 28, his customized Boeing 767 will be delivered.

According to a Boeing representative, it only takes nine days for Boeing to assemble an aircraft.

On the contrary, the interior decorations he chose were more time-consuming.

But even so, the aircraft was fully assembled as early as last month.

During this period, Boeing was mainly conducting test flights before delivery and handling various procedures.

Of course, aircraft manufacturing is fast.

But the order has to be queued.

This reflects the value of Hanyu Hideki's hundreds of thousands of queue-jumping fees.

In a capitalist society, many things can be done with money.

It's time for the second day.

Hideki Hanyu heads to Wall Street to say goodbye.

Eleven days have passed since the signing of the "Plaza Accord".

Britain, Germany, France, and Neon are still continuing to sell the dollar.

Because of their actions, they also caused a wave of selling in the capital market.

The exchange rates of various currencies against the US dollar have been rising.

Among them, the Japanese yen is the most exaggerated.

This resulted in Hideki Hanyu's book earnings increasing at an average rate of US$5000 million per day.

However, after the initial excitement, the trading team has finally calmed down.

After Hideki Hanyu explained everything to Eiichi Jinbo and Takeshi Honda, he officially returned to California.

He is not going to Los Angeles for the time being.

Instead, I stayed in a hotel in San Jose and spent so much time in New York.

You must pay attention to the development of the company.

Of course, making money takes priority over loving children.

The day after his return, he met with Michael Katz.

Michael Katz told him.

"The people at the Elf R&D Center are finishing their vacations one after another. In addition to the second-generation console technology reserve research and development you mentioned, I have another research and development suggestion."

"Mr. Katz please speak."

Hideki Hanyu wanted to hear what Michael Katz thought.

"I want the R&D center to start research and development of a new generation of electronic pets."

Michael Katz's words surprised Hideki Hanyu.

He thought Michael Katz would talk about developing other versions of the handheld console.

But think about it, and Michael Katz’s idea seems to make sense.

Although the Pokeball 2 handheld console and PS console are selling very well.

But it doesn’t mean that the electronic pets that initially helped Elf Entertainment dominate the world in America can no longer be sold.

On the contrary, some younger children prefer electronic pets that are simple to operate, easy to carry, and have longer battery life.

The sales volume of the first-generation electronic pet Poke Ball in America could not be beat by the Pokeball 2 handheld console and PS console bundled together.

But after all, it is an old machine from a few years ago.

Now sales are beginning to decline.

Developing new models seems like a good idea.

"Does Mr. Katz have any ideas for the new generation of electronic pets?"

Hideki Hanyu asked.

If Michael Katz dares to say so, he must have figured something out.

"This is how I think about it. The next generation of electronic pets can be linked with Pokémon peripheral cards."

"How specific?" Hanyu Hideki asked.

"The new generation of electronic pets no longer come with their own pets. If you want to get a pet, you must buy the Pokémon cards we issued that come with their own chips.

When the time comes, players will be able to raise whatever cards they insert.

During online battles, you can also use different pets to fight by changing cards. "

Listening to what Michael Katz said, Hanyu Hideki thought to himself that he really deserves to be a veteran in the toy industry.

This kind of routine can not only sell electronic pet machines, but also pet cards with chips by the way.

It directly changes the electronic pet from one-time consumption to continuous consumption.

When the time comes when you want to make money, launch new cards.

If you want to make money again, you can upgrade the screen performance of the electronic pet body or something.

Isn't this just Yu-Gi-Oh in disguise?
Hanyu Hideki's ideas were immediately opened up by Michael Katz.

He asked, "How is Mr. Katz going to sell the cards?"

"Of course it was sold directly to the public, just like game cartridges."

Michael Katz said.

Hideki Hanyu shook his head, "I don't think this is good."

"What do you think, Mr. Hanyu?" Michael Katz asked expectantly.

In his opinion, Hanyu Hideki always comes up with some wonderful ideas in his mind.

Hanyu Hideki replied with shrewd eyes.

“It’s very simple, we don’t sell cards, we sell card packs.”
