Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 345 Return to Hong Kong
The day after meeting with Naito Securities.

Haneda International Airport.

Hanyu Hideki's trip to Xiangjiang is about to start.

Since he was going there this time to take care of business, naturally he couldn't be the only one.

After informing Asako Hirohashi of the purpose of his trip, Asako Hirohashi helped him form an acquisition team as quickly as possible.

They are all professionals who can help. Some are responsible for legal support, some are responsible for financial consulting, some understand the Asian film market, and some are dedicated to operating theaters...

All in order to make Hanyu Hideki's negotiations more convenient and smooth.

The team started out from Neon with just five people.

When we get to Xiangjiang, there will be translators and people from the Yunshang Entertainment branch joining us.

And in addition to these professionals who help with acquisitions.

The number of people accompanying Hanyu Hideki on this trip is still huge.

Accompanying her are a styling team and temporary life assistants.

as well as……

In front of him were being lectured by his subordinates. There were ten bodyguards in black suits standing in a row, menacingly.

Hideki Hanyu couldn't help but ask Marco, his bodyguard captain.

"Marco, do you need to be so exaggerated?"

For this trip, in addition to the original three bodyguards, Marco added ten more bodyguards.

They are all people trained by the security company he invested in and founded by Marco and his partners.

Although several people did not carry weapons at this time.

But it is said that he has applied to the Hongying government with the help of his former company, and will be issued weapons upon landing.

Is there any mistake?
He was there to discuss business, not to compete for territory with Zitou.

With so many bodyguards, others thought he was suffering from delusions of persecution.

Marco still had the same serious tone, "I got news from the company that Xiangjiang is not very stable recently, and he has been to many big circles, including desperadoes in Vietnam."

"Well... that's a reason." Hanyu Hideki said.

"Also, these are the first batch of newcomers who have been trained and need training opportunities."

Marco's words immediately left Hideki Hanyu speechless.

I think this is the main reason why you arranged so many people.

Use bosses to develop new experience.

But at least he invested money. Although he doesn't expect to make money from the security company, he can help if he can.

After understanding the situation, Hanyu Hideki pretended to say hello to everyone.

What he got was a row of strong men in black bowing at the same time and saying hello in unison.

"Hi boss!"

Hey……!
Hanyu Hideki is very big-headed.

He is a good national teacher, a famous writer, and a lover of the public...

Why does this style of painting look like some extremely powerful boss?

Next we went to Xiangjiang.

Are we going to start the story of "1986: The Journey of the Dragon"?

Should we seize Bolan Street first?
Or go to Causeway Bay?
Nonsence--

He is the world's top water pipe, not a street kid who strives to gain his position.

"Okay, let them stop posing and get on the plane quickly."

Hanyu Hideki waved and took his little brother...

Well...it was the bodyguards who boarded the Elf and officially set off for Xiangjiang.

The Spirit took off and arrived at Kai Tak Airport in Hong Kong on time more than four hours later.

This is not the first time for Hanyu Hideki to come to Hong Kong, and he is familiar with Kai Tak Airport.

But in the past, it was just to enter Guanpeng City and leave as soon as you came.

It was my first time to take a private jet.

After leaving the airport through the private jet's dedicated lane.

The man to pick him up has arrived.

In addition to the employees of the branch, there are also service personnel sent by the hotel to pick up the guests.

This time, he said that if he had to stay a few more days, he would certainly not be wronged in terms of basic necessities, food, housing and transportation.

So he asked the staff to help him book the Regent Hotel, which is adjacent to Victoria Harbor and overlooks the Victoria Harbor.

This luxury hotel, which was unveiled in the early 80s, plays an important role in the history of Xiangjiang Hotels because of its unprecedented modern design style.

Now is the time when the competition between Regent Hotels and Peninsula Hotels is fierce.

Both parties used Rolls-Royces to pick up guests.

Hanyu Hideki booked the presidential suite on the top floor of the Regent Hotel with its own outdoor swimming pool.

Naturally, you can also enjoy such treatment.

However, he declined the hotel's offer.

Got into a black Bentley Mulsanne at the door.

It’s the same car as the one Naito Haruko rode in a few days ago.

This car was flown over from Neon after he decided to come to Xiangjiang.

The reason for such mobilization of troops and people.

Not because he was vain.

It's because he knows that in the circle of wealthy Chinese, cars are an external manifestation of strength.

This is what people do.

After all, Tony Leung Ka Fai said it.

If you drive a Mazda, you are not qualified to attend this meeting...

Playing low-key will only make people look down on you.

Although they are both British brands, for some reason, Bentley is more popular in Hong Kong than Rolls-Royce.

Hanyu Hideki got in the car, and Marco took over the driver's seat as he should.

Sitting in the passenger seat was a man in his early thirties.

The other party is a staff member of Yunshang Entertainment in Xiangjiang.

He was also Hanyu Hideki’s assistant and translator during this trip.

His name is Kobayashi Masako.

When Hanyu Hideki's motorcade of more than a dozen people drove toward the Regent Hotel in a mighty manner.

Hanyu Hideki also began to ask Kobayashi Masako about his work preparations.

What he cared about the most was, of course, the main purpose of his trip.

Hideki Hanyu asked, "Have you contacted Shaw Brothers Pictures?"

"We have been contacted. Mr. Shao Yifu will hold a dance party tomorrow night and invite you, President, to attend."

Hearing what Kobayashi Masako said.

Hanyu Hideki thought to himself, meeting Shao Yifu at the dinner, was this a preliminary test before formal negotiations?

But until now, he hasn't revealed what he wants to do.

Even if he contacted Shaw Brothers, he just said he wanted to cooperate with Shaw Brothers.

If it were Shao Yifun, he would definitely give it a try.

A neon entertainment company suddenly wanted to cooperate with Shaw Brothers Pictures without any warning.

It happened to be chosen just a few months after Shaw Brothers announced the suspension of production.

Shao Yifu was probably confused as to why Yunshang Entertainment came to him for cooperation.

It would be strange if I didn't want to test it out.

"Where is Nakamori Akina now?" Hanyu Hideki asked.

After all, he said he would come to accompany the beauty. Even though it was just an excuse, he couldn't break his promise.

"Ms. Nakamori will record a radio program in the afternoon. We have informed her that President Hanyu will be here today. She said she will visit you in the hotel after the program."

Kobayashi Masako answered quickly.

"Shaw Brothers Pictures information, send me a copy as soon as possible."

After he finished speaking, he added, "Give one to the team as well."

"Yes." Xiao Linzhengzhang answered.

After saying this, Hanyu Hideki stopped talking.

His purpose for coming here is clear and he has no intention of doing anything else in Xiangjiang.

Although this place has reached the point of taking off.

The net worth of those wealthy people who will be familiar to future generations will also begin to expand rapidly.

But he was not moved at all.

He already has his own goals and plans, so he just needs to go step by step.

The motorcade moved forward and when they arrived at the Regent Hotel, it was already dark and the sky was filled with stars and moon.

After staying in his suite, Hanyu Hideki felt inexplicably familiar.

Thinking back carefully, it seems that many TV shows and movies watched in later generations were shot here.

After changing his clothes, he walked to the huge terrace of the suite and began to enjoy the night view of Victoria Harbor.

The neon lights are bright and the harbor water is sparkling. This beautiful picture is really like a pearl embedded in the embrace of Hong Kong.

There is also a special feeling unique to the 80s, when the old and new eras change.It is something that future generations will not be able to experience at all.

And just when Hanyu Hideki was enjoying the beautiful scenery.

The doorbell rang suddenly.

Hideki Hanyu opened the door, and as expected, it was Akina Nakamori.

The door closed, and the woman immediately threw herself into Hanyu Hideki's arms.

"Hanyu-kun is finally here. If not, I should return to Neon."

"I'm temporarily delayed by work."

After making an excuse, Hanyu Hideki continued to ask, "Are Akina's work in Hong Kong finished?"

"We'll be done in two days." Akina Nakamori replied.

Hideki Hanyu said, "It doesn't matter. You can stay and play for a few days before going back after your work is done."

"I also want to be with Hanyu-kun, but HA Records is still waiting for me to record, and the film crew is also waiting for me to start working. I can't let everyone wait for me."

It was obvious that Nakamori Akina wanted to accompany Hanyu Hideki.

But she is not ignorant.

Going to Europe for vacation originally took a lot of time.

Some things can no longer be delayed.

After all, so many people depend on her for work.

"It doesn't matter. When Akina-chan is free, we can come to Xiangjiang alone to play."

Hanyu Hideki's words were purely comforting.

With Akina Nakamori's current popularity, the half-month break at the beginning of the year was already done for his sake.

Not to mention anything else, last year Akina Nakamori's record sales alone, all over Asia combined, officially exceeded [-] billion yen.

Not to mention income from photo albums, movies, endorsements, etc.

The revenue generated by one person accounts for almost [-]% of the total revenue of Yunshang Entertainment.

Putting a money printing machine of this level in other clubs would make you spend all your sleeping time arranging work.

If you want to take a vacation this year, don’t even think about it.

“Vacation feels impossible in a short time.”

Akina Nakamori also knew her situation.

"Okay, don't think so much. Akina has been busy all day. Let's go take a shower. Oh, by the way, have you brought your clothes?"

"Bring it. Since Hanyu-kun is here, I must be with Hanyu-kun."

Nakamori Akina pointed to her suitcase, and then followed Hanyu Hideki's request to wash up.

A moment later, Nakamori Akina walked out wearing a silver suspender pajamas.

I found Hideki Hanyu sitting on the sofa in the living room of the suite, looking through some documents.

Upon closer inspection, many of these documents are in Chinese.

Then he asked curiously, "Hanyu-san comes to Xiangjiang this time. Does he have any other work to deal with?"

"Hey... Asako-san knew that I was coming to Xiangjiang and arranged a temporary task for me. I really want to come and play for two days without any peace."

Faced with the beauty's questions, the scumbag immediately put his acting skills to the test and used Hirohashi Asako as a shield without hesitation.

Anyway, no one dared to go to Hirohashi Asako to testify.

"That's it. How can I help you?"

"It's a small matter, don't worry about Akina."

"Since it's a small matter, let's deal with it tomorrow. It's already so late. Hanyu-kun, could you please stay with me..."

I heard Nakamori Akina's coquettish voice.

Hanyu Hideki looked at his watch and thought it was only nine o'clock, why was it too late.

But the woman who has turned into a pervert can't care so much.

He threw away the documents in Hanyu Hideki's hand and started to take initiative.

Suddenly, in the presidential suite of the Regent Hotel.

Just like the water of Victoria Harbor outside the window.

……

The next day.

After a busy night, Hanyu Hideki, who was hungry, took his woman to have a traditional Cantonese breakfast at the Cantonese restaurant "Li Jing Xuan" in the hotel.

This restaurant will be renamed "Xin Tu Xuan" in the future, and it has also received two Michelin stars.

Now that I eat it, it still tastes pretty good.

At least it conquered Akina Nakamori's appetite.

He didn't even care about controlling his weight and ate a lot of food.

After breakfast, a satisfied Akina Nakamori continued to work and went out to take magazine photos.

Hideki Hanyu gathered the team and started his own work.

Beauty is nice, but the business of making money is more important.

Just talk about the land under your feet.

How many later generations of female stars are sought after as goddesses by movie fans.

Who has never been a rich man?

Without money, why would those women spend time with a man who is more than ten or 20 years older?
With the help of the team's analysis, they began formulating a strategy for the acquisition.

Tonight I will meet Shao Yifu for the first time.

If he ever got down to business, he always had something to say.

After working hard for most of the day, his subordinates began to report to him.

"Chairman Hanyu, according to our estimation, if you want to buy the Shaw Brothers Cinema chain now, the most valuable part is actually the Xiangjiang part, mainly because of the land price and the long-term lease contract. As outsiders, whether it is acquisition or It’s very troublesome to run.”

After listening to the report from his subordinates, Hanyu Hideki said directly, "Don't worry about management now, give me a price first."

“If we acquire the entire Hong Kong Shaw Brothers Cinema chain, HK$[-] million to HK$[-] million is a more appropriate price range.

Cinema chains in other parts of Asia require about [-] million Hong Kong dollars. However, Shaw Brothers Pictures has always wanted to sell this part of the cinema chain, so it is easier to negotiate. "

The men continued to report.

After hearing this, Hideki Hanyu did not express an opinion, but asked the person in charge of finance next to him.

“What’s the current exchange rate of the yen to the dollar?”

The person in charge of finance replied, "190 yen to the dollar."

Hanyu Hideki thought it was really an exaggeration. Less than a month and a half after the new year, the ten yen had gone up again.

The Hong Kong dollar has been a fixed exchange rate against the U.S. dollar since 1983, basically stable at [-] Hong Kong dollars to one U.S. dollar.

Based on this calculation, if we spend yen, we can buy Shaw Brothers Cinemas for about 100 billion.

For the upcoming Crescent Cinema Line, this price is definitely acceptable.

However, the acquisition must be settled in US dollars.

According to the current growth rate of the yen, it may rise to 150 yen per US dollar this year.

Spending Japanese yen now is not cost-effective.

After roughly knowing the price, Hanyu Hideki felt confident.

Of course, Hanyu Hideki would only use the numbers given to him by his subordinates as reference.

As for the specific price, it must be adjusted accordingly.

Of course, it also depends on his mood.

After meeting with his subordinates, Hanyu Hideki saw that the time was almost up and started making preparations for departure.

Since you are going to attend a party, the most important thing is of course appearance.

While styling your hair with the help of the accompanying styling team.

While instructing the assistant to choose clothes.

For a suit, choose a double-breasted, navy blue slim-fit model customized by BORRELLI in Italy.

The leather shoes and belt are custom-made in Berluti, France.

Ties and shirts are custom-made by STEFANO RICCI from Italy.

The glasses are his favorite customized Lotos models.

Although not the most expensive of all his glasses, Hideki Hanyu paid $[-] for them.

But this is not the most expensive item in his outfit today.

The most expensive one is a Patek Philippe Ref2499 perpetual calendar chronograph watch.

He bought it at an auction in Tokyo.

He did not attend it himself and it was sold through an off-site auction for US$36.

If I remember correctly, the price of this watch more than increased tenfold a few decades later.

However, he bought it only for his own use and not for appreciation in value.

Today's outfit, converted into Hong Kong dollars, easily exceeds 400 million.

But he didn't do it deliberately for today's party.

Because for his current worth.

This is just his normal outfit for formal occasions.

　The chapter was blocked yesterday morning, and it was released after some changes.

　　My friend is getting married today, and the delay has been too long. That's all, I'm sorry.
