Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 418 Yoshiaki Tsutsumi can’t wait, the new business direction of the firm
  As the three people who signed contracts with Yunshang Entertainment when it was first established, they were also the group led by Hideki Hanyu.

Regarding the three girls who were ill-fated in their previous lives, such as Genki Shoujo, Hanyu Hideki felt like a "teacher and brother" in his heart.

So after remembering things about Tsutsumi Yoshiaki and Minamino Yoko in my memory.

His first reaction was that this old guy in his fifties seemed to be eyeing his eighteen-year-old little cabbage in this time and space.

Although Yoshiaki Tsutsumi behaves in a fairly orderly manner, he always likes to use money to chase women and rarely listens to the other party's use of force.

But just because it's rare doesn't mean the other party doesn't have it.

For big figures like Neon, especially big figures like Tsutsumi Yoshiaki who stand at the top of the neon food chain, Hanyu Hideki has always viewed them with the most malicious thoughts.

After traveling for so long, Hanyu Hideki has fully realized that this is a completely different country from the original one.

The remaining feudal society, through the sudden advent of capitalism, combined to form an extremely ugly monster class, lying on top of this country.

The rich and powerful control wealth and monopolize power, making it extremely difficult for people at the lower levels to succeed.

Either join the powerful group and be their dogs.

Or just like him, he is a time-traveler who is tricked by God.

Otherwise, all you can do is to keep to yourself and let nature take its course.

After all, Hanyu Hideki has seen countless examples of people in the upper echelons of Neon simply not treating ordinary people as the same kind.

In his previous life, he had seen exaggerated news about cross-city pursuits and cross-province trials, which had already seemed very bad, but in Neon this was nothing at all.

When those people are gentle and friendly, they are just boiling frogs in warm water, causing people to die unconsciously.

But when those people really set their sights on you, what awaits you is the bloody reality, with your skin and bones ripped apart like a thunderstorm.

If a case is unjust, false or wrong, ordinary people have no room to resist.

Even if it means direct personal destruction, what can ordinary people do?

Although Neon has the death penalty, it is extremely difficult to execute it.

Neon's rich and powerful have many ways to get away with their crimes.

What's more, those people have many things to do and no longer need to do it themselves.

In this era, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi is a super powerful person who can make senior officials of the Neon Government bow their heads and chat and laugh happily with the Prime Minister.

If such a person really wants to do something to an ordinary female artist, who can stop him?

It is also difficult for anyone to be willing to offend someone like Yoshiaki Tsutsumi for the sake of an ordinary female artist.

The operations of those chaebols in South Korea are nothing more than the leftovers of the neon rich and powerful.

In the early years, neon dignitaries also acted blatantly.

But as time progresses, everyone has turned these bad habits into rules.

There is no need to be as vulgar and tasteless as South Korean chaebols do.

Speaking of which, the Lotte boss Sing Ho who was exposed in the Jang Ja Yeon incident in South Korea should actually be named Shigemitsu Takeo.

According to Forbes magazine published next year, the other party's net worth ranks fifth in the world, and he is also on the list as a Korean-American.

On the surface, this person is a South Korean chaebol, but in fact he does not feel that he is a South Korean from beginning to end, and he even only speaks in neon language on weekdays.

After the other party went to South Korea for development, he also brought the idea of ​​neon harming women to South Korea.

In the early [-]s, Sing-ho held the so-called "Miss Lotte" beauty pageant in South Korea. The first champion, Seo Meijing, was awarded openly by Sing-ho.

That year, Xu Meijing was 22 years old and Singer Hao was 60 years old.

Compared to someone who runs a song and dance troupe, this person is more generous. He directly selects concubines from all over the country and plays it openly.

With thoughts in his mind, Hanyu Hideki's pace could not help but speed up a bit.

When Yoshiaki Tsutsumi looked at the energetic girl and smiled like an old chrysanthemum, Hideki Hanyu arrived.

He first pretended to be surprised and said, "I didn't even know that Tisang invited my artists to perform."

As Hideki Hanyu spoke, he observed the expressions of the people present.

The focus of attention is not Tsutsumi Yoshiaki, but Minamino Yoko.

In Hanyu Hideki's view, no matter what he thinks, if Minamino Yoko is willing, then he is just the boss and there is really no need to care too much.

"It's just a trivial matter, how can I disturb President Hanyu, but I do admire them."

When Tsutsumi Yoshiaki spoke, his eyes hidden under his glasses were already looking at Minamino Yoko.

Faced with Tsutsumi Yoshiaki's unabashed "desire", Minamino Yoko shrank her neck slightly, her eyes dodge, and she wanted to hide directly behind Hanyu Hideki.

When Hanyu Hideki saw this, he immediately had the answer in his heart.

He said in a deliberately vague tone.

"Really? Tisang may not know that, but they are all artists brought out by me. I like them very much."

When Hanyu Hideki said he liked it, he deliberately made it slightly aggravated.

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki was so smart that he immediately looked suspiciously between Hanyu Hideki and the three girls.

He suddenly understood when he thought of Hanyu Hideki's reputation as a playboy.

No wonder there haven't been any strange news about female artists in the Yunshang series in recent years. It turns out that the roots lie with Hideki Hanyu.

With a smile on his face, he patted Hanyu Hideki's arm and said in a weird voice, "President Hanyu is really good at it. If I had known, I should have established an entertainment company back then, it would have been more convenient."

Listening to Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's words, Hanyu Hideki felt goosebumps rising on the arm where he was patted by the other party.

But he could only deal with it in a cowardly manner, "Haha, this small amount of money in the entertainment industry is nothing to Tisang's Seibu Group."

"Haha - President Hanyu is always so polite, so I won't disturb President Hanyu and take my leave now."

After being praised by Hanyu Hideki, Tsutsumi Yoshiaki laughed happily, as if he had completely forgotten what had just happened, and left happily.

"Goodbye, Tisang."

Watching Tsutsumi Yoshiaki move away, Hanyu Hideki wiped the non-existent sweat from his head.

Thinking about the Seibu Group and Yoshiaki Tsutsumi during the bubble period, it was really difficult to deal with them.

Fortunately, the "playboy" reputation he had cultivated in the past had a big effect today.

A little hint made Tsutsumi Yoshiaki think that he had some other relationship with the vitality girl.

If he didn't have the reputation he had in the past, an old fox like Tsutsumi Yoshiaki would probably not believe what he said just now.

Thinking of this, he looked back at the three vitality girls and asked, "Are there any performances next?"

The three of them nodded, and captain Minako Honda replied, "There will be one more song to sing at the end."

Hanyu Hideki said in a solemn tone, "Follow me and leave here as soon as you're done."

"Yes, Mr. Hanyu." The three girls replied quickly.

Seeing Hideki Hanyu's solemn expression, they vaguely guessed what happened, and knew what Hideki Hanyu had just blocked for them.

Although I couldn't help but feel scared at the thought of being targeted by a big shot like Tsutsumi Yoshiaki.

But looking at Hideki Hanyu right in front of them, they felt an inexplicable sense of security in their hearts.

Especially Minano Yoko, she could see that Tsutsumi Yoshiaki was the most interested in her just now.

Before Hanyu Hideki came, the other party had already tentatively invited her to have dinner.

If it weren't for Hideki Hanyu, she really wouldn't know how to deal with it.

Seeing the tension and helplessness on the faces of the three girls, Hanyu Hideki changed his serious face and showed a smile as sunny and gentle as possible.

He comforted, "Don't be afraid, I'll be fine."

Although he said it was okay, Hanyu Hideki had already decided to let Mijima Iijima arrange a random itinerary after the banquet and send the three girls overseas wherever they wanted.

The main purpose is to avoid Tsutsumi Yoshiaki's eyes.

After all, giving up Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's idea for a while does not mean giving up the other person's idea completely.

If the old guy gets interested, plays a little weirder, and directly asks him to share, it will be a lot of fun.

Now, he is not strong enough to fight Tsutsumi Yoshiaki.

Especially when the other party is at the peak of its strength during the bubble economy.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, he must maintain his relationship with Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

So the best way is to let the three girls hide outside for a while. When Yoshiaki Tsutsumi finds a new target and goes to harm other women, he will naturally no longer be interested in them.

As for which other women would suffer, Hanyu Hideki no longer cared about it.

It was enough of a risk that he could protect the vitality girl.

Looking at other neon entertainment agency bosses, I am afraid that after Tsutsumi Yoshiaki fell in love with the three little ones, their first reaction was to strip the artists naked and send them to the Prince Hotel for Tsutsumi Yoshiaki to taste, in order to get closer to them. This kind of relationship with a big shot.

Even if it were him, if it weren't for the energetic girl with the feeling of "both teacher and brother", and if it were another female artist who signed a contract with the agency, he might not meddle in other people's affairs.

In this case, he has no motivation to take care of other artists.

With the warm smile on Hanyu Hideki's handsome face and his comforting words, most of the tension in the hearts of the three girls immediately dissipated.

Next, Hanyu Hideki socialized as usual.

It's just that there are three more little tails behind it.

Near the end of the banquet, when the three girls came on stage to sing another song, Hanyu Hideki personally sent the three of them to the nanny car in front of the Prince Hotel.

And immediately contacted Miji Iijima and asked him to arrange for the girl to go overseas.

In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, he also arranged for the "Elf" to wait.

In this case, it is better to make a fuss than to take it seriously.

But after he finished explaining, he didn't care where Mijima Iijima arranged for the three of them to go.

Because the staff of the Seibu Group had come to remind him that the private reception upstairs was about to begin, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi invited him to go.

Led by the staff, Hideki Hanyu arrived at the restaurant where Yoshiaki Tsutsumi held a private reception.

This is a very traditional neon dinner party format.

Low wooden tables were arranged in two long rows, and the invitees sat on their knees on both sides.

They are very close to each other and communication is more convenient.

After the waiter led Hanyu Hideki to sit down, other guests came one after another.

Some come alone, while others come with female companions.

At the other end of the restaurant, there is also karaoke equipment.

Before the dinner party even started, a singer came to sing.

They are basically female enka singers wearing kimonos.

Some of them Hideki Hanyu knew, and some he didn't.

After all, he was really not familiar with the entertainment industry.

Although this industry makes a lot of money, Yunshang Entertainment does not have the resources in this area due to the lack of inheritance relationships, and it has not signed any singing singers.

On the contrary, Hirohashi Asako's uncle Ikuo Shubo is quite well-connected in this area and has many enka singers under the Burning Group.

Soon, as it approached the start time of the dinner, the guests began to arrive one after another.

Hanyu Hideki took a casual look and found that in addition to neon's traditional "old money", there were also political figures.

Some of them, even writing their names will cause the existence of this time and space to collapse.

As the host of this dinner party, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi arrived late.

On the surface, the other party's face was red and his breath was uneven. It was obvious that he had drank a lot before coming.

After entering the banquet and announcing the start of the banquet, guests began to be entertained among the seats.

Soon, this guy arrived next to Hanyu Hideki.

Then he asked with a hint of alcohol in his mouth and a somewhat surprised expression, "Didn't President Hanyu bring a female companion? Where are the three girls?"

Hideki Hanyu replied, "As idols, they have so many schedules every day that they don't even have time to sleep. How can they have time to accompany me to the banquet."

"Is that so?" Tsutsumi Yoshiaki asked tentatively.

Hanyu Hideki said without changing his expression, "Of course, I heard that they are going overseas in the evening. Even my boss doesn't know where they are going."

"Haha...that's really a coincidence."

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki squinted his eyes and stared at Hanyu Hideki, as if he could sense something was wrong.

Facing Tsutsumi Yoshiaki's gaze, Hanyu Hideki still looked as usual, spreading his hands and speaking in a natural tone.

"Didn't Tisang see them all today? I didn't know they came to Tisang to perform before I came here."

"Well, it seems that finding such a woman is also a painful thing. It's not easy to even meet her."

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki put away his expression and said as if he felt the same.

As for what the other party was thinking, Hanyu Hideki couldn't guess.

But there was no need for him to guess.

After all, Tsutsumi Yoshiaki invited him here not because of a few women, but because of interests.

In this world, you can't expect everyone to be your friend.

In most cases, everyone is tied together because of interests.

"Who says it's not?" Hanyu Hideki replied casually.

Then Yoshiaki Tsutsumi said, "President Hanyu, please come with me, and I will introduce you to a few friends."

"Ok."

Hideki Hanyu readily agreed.

The reason why I am willing to come to such an occasion is to expand my network and relationships.

If you want your industry to grow bigger and stronger, you can't avoid operating these things.

After all, Hanyu Hideki's current career is like sailing against the current of neon.

If you don’t work hard to move forward, you will only be torn apart by neon’s traditional forces.

Thinking that you only want to take care of yourself and do your own business, and then everything will be fine, is undoubtedly a naive and beautiful fantasy.

Among the guests attending this banquet today, although he is not the least wealthy, he is the least qualified in terms of his time of success and his connections.

Of course, after several years of operation, there have been some achievements.

But who would dislike having a larger network of connections?

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, who is now at the height of his power, ended up in such a miserable end after entering the new millennium, not because of the decline of his network of connections.

Therefore, one can never be complacent.

Being cautious is the way to deal with things.

Following Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, Hideki Hanyu got to know everyone.

"Chairman Hanyu, this is the president of Mitsubishi Construction... If our cooperation is reached, Seibu Construction will cooperate with Mitsubishi Construction and be responsible for the construction of the park."

"Chairman Hanyu, this is the Speaker of the Kanagawa Prefectural Assembly... I have analyzed it with my subordinates. The address of the paradise we cooperate with is best placed in Kanagawa Prefecture... which is the closest to the Shinkansen station and will have subway lines in the future. planning."

"Chairman Hanyu, this is the Yokohama City Transportation Bureau... At that time, we will cooperate with the Transportation Bureau to complete the branch line connection from Haneda Airport to the park."

……

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi seemed to be introducing the relationship to Hideki Hanyu, but his words were always about the cooperation paradise.

Obviously, the leader of the Seibu Group can't wait to start cooperation. He has started to become impatient after negotiating for so long.

Therefore, it is obvious that through the introduction of the relationship, Hideki Hanyu will become a general, and Hideki Hanyu will be directly established, forcing Hideki Hanyu to start cooperation as soon as possible.

After all, for the sake of their future, these people may be more concerned about the construction of the paradise project than Yoshiaki Tsutsumi himself.

But well...

Hanyu Hideki accepted all the connections.

Cooperate and continue to talk slowly.

Such a large project will cost hundreds of billions of yen in construction costs alone.

No matter how detailed the terms and benefits involved are, you cannot be too careful.

Therefore, it is useless for Yoshiaki Tsutsumi to just push him up.

If you want to speed up the progress, then Yoshiaki Tsutsumi should let the Seibu Group take the initiative to make concessions.

Therefore, Hanyu Hideki promised, but he was not anxious at all.

There is no doubt about Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's current strength.

Able to coerce ordinary female artists without any scruples.

But there was no way to force Hideki Hanyu with that method.

Although Hanyu Hideki is relatively junior, he is already half-assed on the table.

As long as Hideki Hanyu doesn't do anything that breaks the rules.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi must follow the rules.

Besides, the field that Tsutsumi Yoshiaki is engaged in is too different from Hanyu Hideki. Even if he really wants to do something, it will not be that easy.

After all, whether it is the cloud series or the elf series, there are many interest groups involved in the industry chain.

Stretch your whole body.

The Seibu Group is strong, but it is not that easy to target Hideki Hanyu.

Therefore, when the dinner party was over, Hanyu Hideki was enjoying himself, collected a lot of business cards, and made some investment inspection commitments.

But what Yoshiaki Tsutsumi wanted, there was no progress for the time being.

But before leaving, Hanyu Hideki still gave Tsutsumi some details on cooperation and stated some conditions.

Many of them were pits he dug when the bubble burst.

If Seibu Group is willing to agree, then he wouldn't mind accelerating cooperation.

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki said that he would consider it carefully.

By the time the dinner party ended, the moon was already high in the sky.

Hanyu Hideki got into the car smelling of alcohol.

Marco asked, "Boss, where are you going?"

Hanyu Hideki thought for a moment, Li Meiren had left, so there was no need to go back to the apartment next to Shiba Park.

The house in Shirokanedai District was deserted, Xiao Pangcai went overseas to promote, and even Nakolulu was picked up and taken care of by Chie Ishihara.

He thought for a moment and said, "Let's go to Shinjuku."

It was the address of Hitomi Kuroki's apartment.

The former lover returns under the wing of the scumbag.

Then he ran to America, and then to Xiangjiang. It was time to take care of him. But what embarrassed Hanyu Hideki was that when he arrived at the apartment, he knocked on the door and found that there was no one in the apartment.

Just when he was standing at the door, considering whether to send a paging message to ask, or to continue waiting for a while.

I heard the clicking sound of high heels going up the stairs.

Then, he saw Hitomi Kuroki, wearing a professional suit and skirt, walking out of the stair door.

When Hanyu Hideki thought what a coincidence.

Kuroki Hitomi also saw Hideki Hanyu standing alone at the door.

I felt happy and walked over quickly.

The woman took the initiative to hold Hanyu Hideki's hand, smelled the alcohol on her lover's body, and asked with concern, "Are you going to socialize?"

Hanyu Hideki put his arms around the woman and said in an inexplicably relaxed tone, "Yes, I am socializing with a group of great people."

As if feeling Hideki Hanyu's emotions, Hitomi Kuroki also hugged Hideki Hanyu tightly and said softly, "If you are stressed, I will help you share it."

Hanyu Hideki shook his head with a smile, lowered his head and scratched the woman's nose and said, "This is a man's business, it's not your turn to share the burden."

Hideki Hanyu's chauvinistic words were heard in Hitomi Kuroki's ears. Not only did he not mind them, they actually filled the woman's heart with sweetness.

She slowly raised her head and stared lovingly at the handsome face of her beloved.

"Since I can't share the burden, I'll help Hanyu-kun relax."

Hideki Hanyu looked at the woman playfully and asked, "Oh? How are Miss Hitomi Kuroki going to make me relax?"

Kuroki Hitomi got out of Hanyu Hideki's arms, opened the apartment door, reached out and pulled Hanyu Hideki's tie towards the house, and said in an ambiguous voice at the same time.

"How to relax... Hanyu-kun will know when you come in."

……

In the bedroom of the apartment, Hanyu Hideki, who had washed away the smell of alcohol and was only wearing shorts, was lying on the tatami.

After traveling for so long, he still wasn't used to sleeping on the ground.

The remote control in hand is constantly adjusting the channel.

Kuroki Hitomi happened to have a receiver installed with Yunshang Satellite Channel, but after turning it on, he discovered that Yunshang Satellite TV did not have late-night programs yet, but only used some old movies to fill the time slots.

There are movies from Neon Country, and there are also movies from overseas, Hong Kong, Hollywood, and even mainland movies.

Hanyu Hideki was not interested in the old movies being shown, so he simply watched other public television stations.

However, during this time period, whether it is variety shows or TV series on public television, the scale is basically explosive.

Some TV stations even broadcast anime during this time period.

When Hideki Hanyu saw a TV series starring a pink female star with "both virtue and talent" during the Showa era, he immediately put down the remote control in his hand and started studying seriously.

As a late-night drama, of course it cannot be "positive" throughout.

The plot is a little bit goofy, and there are "artistic moments" that are caught off guard, which detracts a lot from this late-night drama.

However, the actress has a very dedicated attitude and is very good at talking.

While Hanyu Hideki was observing carefully, the sound of water in the apartment bathroom stopped.

Not long after, Hitomi Kuroki walked out wearing a Japanese yukata.

She knelt down next to the tatami, slowly untied everything, and then got into Hanyu Hideki's quilt.

Putting his arms around his lover and looking at the TV that was playing, Kuroki Hitomi asked, "Does it look good?"

Hanyu Hideki replied sincerely, "Of course not as good-looking as Hitomi-chan, mainly for studying."

"Hanyu-kun knows how to cause trouble." Kuroki Hitomi complained softly.

Then, watching the movements of the female teacher on the TV, she put her head next to Hanyu Hideki’s ear and said, “I can study too.”

After saying that, he gently licked Hanyu Hideki's earlobe.

And slowly, little by little, it went down.

After feeling the beauty's operation, Hanyu Hideki immediately picked up the remote control and turned off the TV.

After all, there is no need to learn from the teacher when there are beauties practicing.

I don't know how long it took.

After releasing the tension and pressure from Yoshiaki Tsutsumi and interacting with important people, Hanyu Hideki completely relaxed by relying on Hitomi Kuroki's service.

Holding the beauty in his arms, he asked, "Why did you come back so late today? Did you receive any new scripts?"

Hearing this, Kuroki Hitomi opened her mouth and bit Hanyu Hideki lightly before speaking in a dissatisfied tone.

"It's not all your fault. Ever since I took the shares of Uesugi Office, Miki Uesugi has come to me for everything. Recently, let alone acting, I have been busy with all the work in the office."

"Haha... It seems that my Hitomi-chan is going to transform into a strong woman."

"What a strong woman, she still works for you."

"What's wrong with working for me? Do you still want to work for someone else?"

"Of course not. As long as I can help Hanyu-kun, I'll be satisfied."

"I'm also glad Hitomi-chan can help me."

"is it?"

"Of course, I'll leave it to Hitomi-chan to deal with the Uesugi Office from now on."

"No problem, and I'd be honored."

I found that Hitomi Kuroki, who was attached to a little girl, seemed to be very interested in pursuing a career.

Hanyu Hideki felt that this woman might not be an actress, but an office owner.

Thinking of this, he felt that he should find more things for Kuroki Hitomi.

Then he made a suggestion, "In fact, in addition to notifying artists and comedians, Uesugi Office can also consider signing some professional athletes."

"Professional athlete?" Kuroki Hitomi looked confused.

Hideki Hanyu began to explain, "In my opinion, with the development of professional sports, the value of sports stars will also become greater and greater. They..."

Hideki Hanyu patiently explained, Hitomi Kuroki listened attentively, and even took the time to bring a pen and paper to record it in detail.

Seeing this, Hanyu Hideki also spoke more carefully.

And everything he said was not without purpose.

The development of overseas sports agencies has entered its initial stage.

America, in particular, is quite mature.

And now in neon, all this has begun to take shape.

Baseball players and golf players already have good incomes.

Thinking about his eldest nephew in later generations, an exhibition game will cost more than [-] million in appearance fees.

The national-level baseball player Shohei Ohtani has a professional contract of US$[-] million in just ten years, not to mention other off-field income.

Think again about the J-League that Neon will establish in 1993.

As well as completely activating the European football transfer market, the Bosman Act was born in 1995.

The potential of the sports economic market is very huge. It can be laid out in advance, developed in advance, and there are even opportunities to go overseas.

When Hideki Hanyu finished speaking, Hitomi Kuroki said seriously, "I will go to the office today to discuss this matter with Miki Uesugi."

"If you have time, you'd better go to America to investigate. The operation of professional athletes there is very mature."

"Well, I will."

Seeing that Kuroki Hitomi was still memorizing something seriously, Hanyu Hideki sat up and helped him put away his notebook and pen.

Then he took the woman into his arms and said, "Okay, I won't have time no matter how busy I am tomorrow."

Kuroki Hitomi, who was held in Hanyu Hideki's arms, felt something. She touched the scumbag's chest with her slender fingers and said, "Hanyu-kun is thinking wildly again."

Hideki Hanyu admitted confidently, "Yes, I feel like I haven't completely relaxed yet. Just like that, Hitomi-chan does it again."

Kuroki Hitomi gave Hanyu Hideki a charming look, but still slowly leaned down.
-
  morning.

Hanyu Hideki, who was full of energy and vitality, drove Hitomi Kuroki to the Uesugi office in person.

After bidding farewell to the reluctant beauty, he headed to Shinagawa District without stopping.

Cloud Satellite TV’s game channel is on trial today.

He had informed Minato Koichi that he would come to watch in person.

After arriving at the conference room where the preview was held, he saw that Eri Kitahara, Satoru Iwata, and several other high-level elf officials had arrived early.

They are discussing the details of the trial broadcast of the game channel with Hong Kong Koichi and the staff of Yunshang Satellite TV.

Hanyu Hideki appeared. Seeing that everyone was about to stand up to say hello, he quickly pressed his hands and said, "You are busy, don't worry about me."

But even so, everyone still said hello one by one.

Hanyu Hideki waited for a while and found that Kitahara Eri was idle.

He called him aside and told him about his meeting with Tsutsumi Yoshiaki yesterday.

Previously, Kitahara Eri was in charge of negotiations with Seibu Group.

After the surrounding operations and management were handed over to Elf Communication, this matter was naturally transferred to Elf Communication.

When Hanyu Hideki finished speaking briefly, Kitahara Eri asked, "In this case, as long as the Seibu Group agrees to the conditions Hanyu-san said, we will start cooperation immediately."

"That's right." Hanyu Hideki nodded.

Regarding the naming of the amusement park, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi actually has no objections.

After all, as Elf Entertainment becomes more and more famous internationally.

Even if Tsutsumi Yoshiaki wants to call it Seibu Land, he still has to consider attracting overseas tourists.

So at the end of the dinner party yesterday, the conditions Hanyu Hideki proposed to Tsutsumi Yoshiaki were actually very simple.

First of all, in the company that controls the amusement park, the Elf family holds no less than [-]% of the shares, and part of the investment must be offset by copyright.

The specific amount of offset is up to the subordinates to argue with.

It would be best if it could be offset [-]%, but according to the current situation, this is obviously impossible.

Prior to this, Seibu Group's negotiators were only willing to give up [-]% of the shares, and the copyright was not included in the investment.

If it weren't for the construction of such a large amusement park in the Tokyo metropolitan area, there would be too many things involved.

The local wealthy families, the Yakuza, the government, and a series of messy and troublesome matters such as land acquisition and employment issues.

Elf Entertainment has long been on its own.

But if you want to solve these things alone, unless Hanyu Hideki is willing to take the risk that no one will go and put the amusement park on Miyagi Prefecture's own territory.

Otherwise, you must find a strong partner.

Traditional consortiums are too powerful and difficult to get rid of.

Therefore, the Seibu Group, which is strong now but will decline rapidly in a few years, is the best choice now.

Otherwise, given that the Seibu Group was only willing to give [-]% of the shares, Hanyu Hideki would have already asked his subordinates to give up negotiations.

Furthermore, it is authorized. The authorization of Elf Park is regional and only applies to the planned "Elf Amusement Park" in Tokyo.

The controlling company of the park does not have the right to build new amusement parks in other Neon areas or overseas.

For Elf Entertainment, copyright is the most important asset.

It is impossible to authorize it without restrictions.

When the time comes, if the amusement park company led by the Seibu Group irresponsibly opens amusement parks everywhere, it will only be Elf Entertainment's reputation that is damaged.

Elf Entertainment cooperates with Seibu Group just to implement the amusement park operating model, not to completely sell off its son.

In fact, if the cooperation between the two parties is happy, Hanyu Hideki would not mind continuing to cooperate.

But based on his understanding of Tsutsumi Yoshiaki, this is obviously impossible.

The other party's strong-willed behavior and firm belief that "human nature is inherently evil" are even worse than those of traditional consortiums.

If Elf Paradise is not profitable, perhaps we can break up peacefully.

But once Elf Paradise succeeds, both parties will definitely fall out.

Fortunately, Hanyu Hideki knew that the Seibu Group would only last a few years.

"Okay, I know."

Kitahara Eri probably understood what Hanyu Hideki meant.

But at this time, Hanyu Hideki whispered again, "Try to delay the negotiation time."

According to the construction cycle of Disneyland, it takes at least three years from design to construction to the final official opening.

However, Disneyland has a mature operating model and the construction cycle is naturally faster.

But Elf Paradise needs to start from scratch, and it is conservatively estimated that it will take another year.

If you agree too early, the amusement park will be built before the Seibu Group collapses.

But it cannot be too late, otherwise Seibu Group will invest too little.

But the control in between is difficult for even Hideki Hanyu to master.

He could only try his best and leave it to fate as to the final outcome.

Here Hanyu Hideki and Kitahara Eri are almost done talking.

On the other side, everyone's discussion about the pilot has also come to an end.

Minato smiled and sat next to Hanyu Hideki, "Thank you for your hard work, Hanyu-san. After attending the big shot's dinner party last night, you still have to come to care about the pilot today."

"Eh? How did Koichi-san know that I attended the dinner party last night?" Hanyu Hideki asked curiously.

"When I went out in the morning, I met Mr. Hori Takeo. He also participated in the Seibu Group's celebration yesterday, but he didn't get an invitation to the last dinner party, but he saw that you were invited, Hanyu-san."

After Minato Koichi finished explaining, Hanyu Hideki suddenly realized, "It turned out to be him. I greeted him in the banquet hall yesterday. I didn't expect Koichi-san to be his neighbor."

Takeo Hori, President of Horipro.

A large artist management agency in the neon entertainment industry.

It also has many celebrities that are well-known to domestic audiences.

Momoe Yamaguchi has retired.

Honami Suzuki, Kyoko Fukada, Satomi Ishihara, Haruka Ayase, Ryuya Fujiwara, Satoshi Tsumabuki who have not yet joined...

Firms are known for having fixed salaries, and salary increases can only be based on seniority.

It sounds cruel and like exploiting the artist.

But in fact, Horipro has a pretty good reputation in the industry.

In today's time and space, many famous artists have to decide which firm they want to switch to after their contracts end.

Cloud Arts definitely ranks first.

As for Horipro, it follows Yunshang Entertainment.

The reason why Yunshang Entertainment is so attractive is entirely because of the existence of Hanyu Hideki, the conscientious president, and his generous treatment.

And backed by its parent company Yunshang Entertainment Group, it has extremely powerful resources.

However, there is a big problem. In order to avoid the hostility of industry firms, Yunshang Entertainment never accepts the help of famous artists.

Because once this hole is opened, everyone is worried that its famous artists will switch to Yunshang Entertainment, and everyone will be in danger.

The entire cloud entertainment business will be affected.

After all, Yunshang Entertainment is a comprehensive media group, and artist management income is only part of it.

Therefore, except for Noriko Watanabe, who moved to Kadokawa Pictures as "compensation".

All the artists on Yunshang Entertainment are trained by themselves.

If you can’t go to Cloud Entertainment, you can only go to Horipro as the next best option.

As for why Horipro’s fixed salary can attract so many people.

It can only be said that this world is not a better world, but a worse world.

Although Horipro has a fixed salary, its income is very transparent.

And after reaching the qualifications, there will be a completely open commission details.

Earn more and earn less, it is clear at a glance.

As long as you complete the tasks of the office, you will rarely suffer any oppression.

It's completely different from other firms. It seems that the income is sky-high, but as long as you trick people into signing contracts, it depends on the mood of the boss.

You can arrange as much work schedule as you can.

The fixed salary also represents a relaxed management atmosphere with few restrictions and requirements. Many artists can retire in the office even if they are no longer popular.

Satomi Ishihara, who fell on the street and became famous again, is a representative figure (I mistakenly thought it was a combustion type o(╯□╰)o).

In addition to making money, there is another important thing.

That is the neon entertainment industry, and many offices are inextricably related to the Yakuza.

Not to mention the most evil type of combustion, let’s just say that Lespros, the agency that will sign Yui Aragaki in the future, has a deep Yakuza background and will force artists to take on many jobs.

If an artist dares to resist, there will naturally be extreme means to serve him.

In the end, it is difficult for artists to retire, and some even have no choice but to join a cult in order to escape.

In this regard, because Yunshang Entertainment has risen so quickly, it does not focus on artist management as its main business.

Coupled with the help of Hanyu Hideki's management and some cooperative relationships with Elf Entertainment, there are few problems in this regard.

And Horipro is one of the agencies that has little involvement in the neon entertainment industry and the Yakuza.

Because of this, Hanyu Hideki had a very good impression of this firm.

Yunshang Entertainment also has a lot of cooperation with each other.

The relationship between the two parties is quite harmonious.

Hideki Hanyu was thinking about the information about Horipro Office.

Hiroshi Minato replied, "It was only after I moved to a new house that I found out that I became neighbors with Horifu. In the future, Yunshang TV will have new projects, so cooperation will make communication easier."

When he heard about the new project, Hanyu Hideki unconsciously thought of the late-night TV show he watched last night.

He asked Koichi Minato, "How are we preparing for our late-night program? We can't always show old movies. In that case, the appeal will not be as attractive as large-scale dramas."

Minato spread his hands and joked, "If Hanyu-san wants to make a large-scale drama, I have no problem with it."
