Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 607 Make It Clear

Although Hanyu Hideki told Lee Gun-hee that he would return to Neon the next day, he actually went to Gimpo International Airport and left on the 'Elf' the same day after visiting Lee Gun-hee.

Three hours later, Hideki Hanyu arrived in Tokyo.

Although it was already past nine o'clock in the evening, Chiba Kaoru, who returned earlier than Hanyu Hideki, was still waiting for Hanyu Hideki outside the airport.

After Hanyu Hideki got into the car, Chiba Kaoru began to report on tomorrow's reception arrangements.

“Teacher Hanyu, there are eleven guests coming to Hong Kong for inspection this time, and the trip is expected to take three days.

The Yunshang has departed for Hong Kong's Kai Tak International Airport today. The scheduled flight time is 10:30 am tomorrow morning and the arrival time in Tokyo is 3 pm.

We have booked sufficient rooms at Shinagawa Prince Hotel according to the number of guests, so we can go directly to the hotel after Mr. Hanyu picks us up at the airport.

The reception banquet at the Yorozuya House tomorrow night has also been prepared.

Starting the day after tomorrow, Mr. Hanyu will be able to lead guests to conduct field visits and inspections..."

Listening to Chiba Kaoru's report, Hanyu Hideki nodded with satisfaction.

Hideki Hanyu attached great importance to these wealthy Hong Kong people who came to inspect this time.

Not only did he arrange for the 'Yun Shang Hao' to pick them up back and forth, he would also go to the airport to pick them up, and he also prepared a series of reception schedules in Tokyo. He would basically accompany them throughout the three days.

We really have to pay attention to it. In the blink of an eye, it is already April. By the end of the year, the Japanese stock market is still booming.

But the housing market, especially industrial land, will enter a strange sideways phase.

By that time, it would certainly not be easy for him to sell the large amount of industrial land he had purchased over the years.

There's nothing we can do about it, it's his fault for buying too much over the years.

Even though he had already started cashing out in advance and Ryohiro Yada had tried his best to find buyers for him in Neon, it still seemed a bit slow compared to the scale of the properties he had.

So these people who took over in Hong Kong... no, it should be the wealthy people, are very important to Hideki Hanyu.

Although the outside world is still unclear, Hanyu Hideki has already learned through his connections that due to the current state of Japan's overheated economy, the conflict between Japan's Ministry of Finance and the central bank can no longer be covered up.

Hideki Hanyu has always been very concerned about Yasushi Mieno, the future governor of the Japanese Central Bank who is known as the "Demon of Heisei" and who personally burst the economic bubble.

Although the other party is only the deputy governor of Neon's central bank, he is a well-known hardliner in the central bank. He has publicly criticized Neon's economic policies several times and stated that the central bank must take the initiative to end Neon's economic "farce."

So, it is still only April 1988.

But Japan’s bubble economy has actually officially entered the countdown stage.

The sky is falling and the earth is cracking, far away in the horizon, yet right in front of us.

With the memory of history, Hideki Hanyu naturally wants to avoid disaster as soon as possible.

A dead Taoist friend is not a poor Taoist.

Japan's economy collapsed and fell into decades of shock. Hideki Hanyu had no sympathy at all, let alone any idea of ​​turning the tide.

On the contrary, he had been preparing for many years and needed this collapse to strengthen himself.

If the Japanese economy had not collapsed, society would not have fallen into a state of negative and decadent stagnation, ordinary people would not have used various entertainments to numb themselves, and there would not have been the spectacular sight of hundreds of thousands of Japanese women going to the sex industry.

In that case, how can his cloud system and elf system develop?

How could the Pachinko Alliance, which he personally facilitated, continue to expand wildly?

Where can the Xidu Group, which he co-founded, find high-quality actresses? Where can it find otakus who rent and buy DVDs?
How could he carry out his various plans during this collapse?
One will be a million bones.

So, the neon bubble must be popped.

He will also use all his connections to ensure that Yasushi Mieno takes the position of central bank governor as history originally had.

While thinking about these things, Chiba Xun's report on receiving the group of wealthy people from Hong Kong had also been completed.

Hanyu Hideki thought for a moment and said, "I will personally participate in the reception work on the first and second days, but I will not participate in the activities of accompanying them on the third day.

The negotiations in South Korea were also at a critical stage, so I couldn’t leave for too long, so I returned to South Korea on the third day.”

The reason for the sudden decision not to participate in the third day's schedule, in addition to the reason of the South Korea negotiations mentioned by Hanyu Hideki, there are actually other considerations.

For example, after the inspection ended on the second day, Hanyu Hideki must have given these Hong Kong tycoons time to think. He stayed by their side the whole time, and there were some things he could not discuss with them.

He didn't expect these people to complete the transaction immediately after the inspection. After all, the properties he listed for these people to visit this time were all large-scale industrial land, and the prices started at tens of millions of dollars.

But giving these people timely time to discuss can at least allow them to give a general idea of ​​the transaction before leaving Tokyo.

After all, for the time being, he will have no trouble selling the high-quality real estate he has.

The purpose of looking for wealthy people in Hong Kong to take over is simply to sell it at a high price.

"Okay, Hanyu-sensei."

Chiba Xun responded and hurriedly modified the itinerary on his notebook.

Hanyu Hideki then asked, "The last time I called you, you said that John Chambers had almost completed his resignation from Wang Laboratories. How is he doing now?"

"When I returned to Neon this time, Mr. John Chambers informed me that he had completed the resignation procedures at Wang Laboratories and would return to America. In addition to visiting relatives, he would also conduct research on Cisco. It is expected that he will officially start work in May."

Hearing Chiba Kaoru's answer, Hanyu Hideki nodded and said, "Contact America's secretary's office and hand over John Chambers' liaison work. Ask them to keep in touch with John Chambers and report any situation to me as soon as possible."

"Yes, Mr. Hanyu," Chiba Kaoru responded, as if she had thought of something, and hurriedly said to Hanyu Hideki, "Mr. Hanyu, when I return to Tokyo this time, there will be other people traveling with me."

"Who?" asked Hanyu Hideki.

He knew Chiba Kaoru very well. If it was an unimportant person, Chiba Kaoru would never tell him about this matter.

"Two days from now, on April 26th, will be the anniversary celebration of Yunshang Filming." Chiba Xun said this first.

Hanyu Hideki nodded and said, "I know this. What does this have to do with your companions?"

As the predecessor of Yunshang Entertainment Group, the anniversary celebration of Yunshang Film and Television before the reorganization automatically became the anniversary celebration event of Yunshang Entertainment Group today.

This event is held every year, but as Yunshang Entertainment becomes stronger and stronger, the scale of this event is also getting bigger and bigger.

Different from the year-end party held within the company, the nature of this event is actually more inclined to give back to the fans and supporters of Yunshang Entertainment.

Basically, they call back all the big stars and hold a grand performance event. The tickets will not be sold to the public, but will only be drawn from the company's official membership club.

Precisely because it is an external event, the boss Hideki Hanyu basically does not participate. Even Hirohashi Asako will not show up, but will leave the stage to the artists.

After all, the fans and supporters who came to the event didn't come to see these senior executives.

Therefore, Hideki Hanyu has not been very concerned about this event all along. He just knows about it and does not want to understand the detailed circumstances of the event.

Therefore, when Chiba Kaoru said that someone came to Tokyo with her from Hong Kong and brought up this matter again, Hanyu Hideki had no idea why.

"I saw from Yunshang Entertainment's promotional materials that this year's anniversary celebration of Yunshang Entertainment will be much larger than in the past, and the venue has also been moved to the newly built Tokyo Dome Stadium. It is said that the number of spectators will exceed 50,000.

In addition to the Japanese artists from Yunshang Entertainment, we also invited overseas artists to participate in the performance. The artist who came with me this time is from Hong Kong.”

At the end, Qianye Xun emphasized, "Ms. Zhou and Ms. Li are among the invited people in Xiangjiang."

"Tokyo Dome?"

When Hideki Hanyu heard the name, he was stunned at first.

Compared to its official name, this stadium later became more familiar to everyone, namely 'BIG EGG', Tokyo Dome.

It was also the first venue built in Japan's Five Dome Tour for future Japanese artists to prove their abilities.

Many people think that Tokyo Dome's nickname comes from the stadium's appearance, but the nickname 'BIG EGG' actually comes from the abbreviation of 'BIG Entertainment and Gold Games'.

Of course, in the end, as everyone kept calling it that, no one cared about the real meaning of the nickname anymore, and the origin of the dome began to become a metaphor for its appearance.

The Osaka Dome, Fukuoka Dome, Nagoya Dome and Sapporo Dome were all named after this.

The reason why Hideki Hanyu was stunned was mainly because he did not expect that the anniversary celebration of Yunshang Entertainment would be held in the Tokyo Dome.

The appearance of a familiar object made Hanyu Hideki suddenly feel that the familiar era in the future was a little closer to him.

As for the Miss Zhou and Miss Li mentioned by Chiba Kaoru at the end, Hanyu Hideki knew who they were without having to guess.

He asked with some confusion, "I can understand why Yunshang Entertainment invited Zhou Huimin to perform, after all, she has already released a formal album and the sales are pretty good.

But what about Li Jiaxin? Why was she invited? "

“Because after Mr. Hanyu left Hong Kong, Ms. Li also officially signed with Yunshang Entertainment’s agency in Hong Kong, and this time she was invited as a direct artist.

It is said that there will be a report session at this year's anniversary celebration. As a project in which Yunshang Entertainment participates, the TGC fashion show will also have a separate show and catwalk at the celebration. Ms. Li will be on stage as a performance model at that time."

After listening to Chiba Kaoru's explanation, Hanyu Hideki showed a look of realization, and then asked, "Where do they live now?" Chiba Kaoru replied, "In order to facilitate rehearsals and unified management, the artists participating in the performance were arranged to live in Yunshang Entertainment's company apartment. They seem to have been arranged to live in an apartment in Shibuya Honmachi."

"That's great, let's go now..."

Hideki Hanyu originally wanted to say that he would go find the two beauties right now, but he stopped talking immediately after he had just started to say the words.

Because he thought of one thing, the anniversary celebration was so grand this year, so all the artists from the Yunshang system would definitely participate.

Uh--

Considering that all the women he had relationships with were now in Tokyo, he still dared to run there and fall into their trap.

Although scumbag men never care about whether it is a Shura field or not.

But in this situation where the time difference cannot be avoided, the time management master's ability cannot be fully utilized, and it will be inappropriate to find either one or the other.

and so……

"Tell Qianzi-san tomorrow that I'm busy with work here and I have to go back to South Korea after receiving the guests. I won't be attending the anniversary celebration."

Even though he can't afford to provoke him, Hanyu Hideki thinks he can still avoid him.

But after saying that, thinking that so many beauties had already returned to Tokyo, the scumbag felt a little itchy and thought it was a waste for him to sleep alone at night under such circumstances.

So he asked Chiba Kaoru, "Has Akina returned from overseas?"

It’s been a while since I last saw Xiaopangcai, and the scumbag missed him a little.

That slender waist that can be held in one hand, that shy and coquettish posture...

But just when Hanyu Hideki was daydreaming, Chiba Kaoru poured a bucket of cold water on him.

"Mr. Hanyu, when I returned to Tokyo, Ms. Nakamori had just arrived in Hong Kong. Although she will also attend the anniversary celebration, she will not be back until the anniversary celebration itself."

"All right……"

Hanyu Hideki said with regret.

After a moment, he rang the intercom and told Marco, "Go to Shibuya Honmachi..."

What did you say?

Go ahead to dangers.

The scumbag is going to venture into the "Dragon's Den and Tiger's Lair" today.

Of course, this is definitely an exaggeration.

Hideki Hanyu knew very well about the apartment he was about to visit.

The apartment with Yunshang Entertainment in Shibuya Honmachi was the one he lived in when he just traveled through time.

Later, when he was shopping for real estate, he bought the apartment building.

Apartments like this are not on the list for his real estate "clearance" plan.

Even if the bubble bursts, the rent in Tokyo will not drop much, so these apartments in core locations that are easy to rent are high-quality assets, and he plans to let Hanyu Real Estate hold and operate it for a long time.

……

Shibuya Honmachi, an apartment building owned by Yunshang Entertainment.

Compared to when Hideki Hanyu lived there, this building has undergone some changes.

For example, the apartment’s security measures have been strengthened, and an outer wall has been added.

The reason for this is that many famous artists from the Yunshang system have lived here in the past, thus attracting a large number of fans.

Some more extreme fans will try to break into apartments and attempt to get close to the artists they admire.

In order to prevent these incidents from happening, Yunshang Entertainment has strengthened security here.

But now these are all in the past.

After the training base of Yunshang Entertainment was built, many famous artists moved into the apartments in the training base in order to ensure privacy and for greater convenience, as they did not want to rent a house themselves.

After all, the apartment there is inside the training base, and you can dine in the base restaurant on weekdays, so both privacy and life are guaranteed.

People like Shizuka Kudo, Noriko Sakai, Noriko Watanabe...all live in the apartments at the training base.

Therefore, there are actually very few artists living in these apartments outside now, and most of them are employees who have applied for the apartments.

Hideki Hanyu got off the car far away and quietly came to the entrance of the apartment in the night.

I rang the doorbell and soon a security guard came out.

The security guard was just about to ask who came to visit so late at night, after all, everyone living here knows the password to the ban card.

But when he used the dim light from the entrance to see the person standing outside, he could not hide his surprise and asked, "President, how could you..."

Although he was just a low-level security guard, he could still recognize Hanyu Hideki, the famous president known to all Japanese citizens.

"Shh-"

Hideki Hanyu quickly made a gesture to keep quiet.

After the security guard shut up, he then said, "Open the door and show me the registration list of overseas artists staying here today."

"Yes, President."

He never dreamed that he would be in such close contact with the group chairman's security personnel. After agreeing with a trembling voice, he hurriedly opened the door for Hanyu Hideki.

Perhaps because he was too excited, the other person's hand seemed to be shaking as he opened the door.

As soon as Hanyu Hideki walked in, the other party immediately took out a registration book and handed it to Hanyu Hideki respectfully.

After opening it, Hanyu Hideki looked at the page with today's date written on it, and two familiar names came into view.

He returned the registration book to the security guard silently, and then reminded him seriously, "Remember, I haven't been here today. If I hear any gossip, you know the consequences."

"Yes, President." The security guard bowed quickly and agreed.

At this time, Hideki Hanyu had already turned around and left, walking upstairs.

But when he walked into the stairwell, he hesitated and said to himself, "Who should I find first? Or should I just call the two together?"

Just when he was a little hesitant, there was suddenly a sound of a door opening at the entrance of the apartment, followed by footsteps and the voices of two people talking getting closer and closer.

Knowing that someone had returned, Hanyu Hideki did not want to be seen by his subordinates in the company, so he moved to the outside of the stairwell.

When he was about to wait for the two to go upstairs and leave, and then decide who to go to.

The conversation between two people in the stairwell suddenly caught his attention.

"Is what you just said true? Are you sure you saw it with your own eyes?"

"Of course it's true. When you were paying the bill at the restaurant, I saw Noriko Sakai enter the nightclub with a man."

"It's not that I don't believe you, but I heard from my friends about that nightclub. A lot of people go there for excitement. I heard that you can smoke that stuff there."

"I didn't believe it at first, but when I looked at Noriko Sakai, it was obvious that she had drunk too much. This must have been her second time tonight."

"I really didn't expect that Noriko Sakai is only 17 years old and looks quite innocent on weekdays, but she actually had so much fun. I heard that many people in that nightclub would do that in public."

"Haha, have you heard that Shizuka Kudo introduced a male friend to Noriko Sakai?"

"I don't know about that. What does that have to do with what happened tonight?"

"Haha, that person is Shinji Nojima from Fuji TV."

"What? It's him! The little rascal from America?"

"That's right. Maybe that guy is the one who took Noriko Sakai to the nightclub tonight. It's not strange for someone who came back from America to smoke that kind of stuff."

"Oh! I really can't understand why Noriko Sakai is hanging out with Shizuka Kudo. When Shizuka Kudo came to my department to shoot a videotape, I could tell that woman was too scheming. Maybe Noriko Sakai was deceived by Shizuka Kudo tonight..."

Before the man could finish his words, he was interrupted by the creaking sound of the stairwell door behind him opening.

The two seemed to be afraid that their gossip would be heard by outsiders, so they stopped talking decisively.

But what they didn't expect was that right after the sound of the door opening, a man's voice was heard.

"You two, come here and explain yourself clearly."
