Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 615 The happiness of the chaebol

After selling the property to Cho Jung-eun, Hanyu Hideki did not stay long at the party.

After all, you should know when to stop repaying favors.

Being too enthusiastic would be counterproductive.

Although Cho Jung-eun's family is very powerful in South Korea, the arrival of Hanyu Hideki, a newcomer from across the country, should also be taken seriously.

But that's only in South Korea.

Once these companies, which rely heavily on personal connections to do business, leave their "comfort zone", their competitiveness may be even lower than that of ordinary companies.

The help to Hideki Hanyu can basically be said to be zero.

This is also why Hideki Hanyu is on good terms with Samsung and is even willing to "betray" a little bit of his body.

But it has always kept a certain distance from Tairong Construction.

It is acceptable to cooperate and make use of each other in South Korea, but there is no need for deeper exchanges.

Of course, since he left early, he had to accompany the girl Lee Fum-jeong, who was in love, to visit the night view of Seoul in the 1980s and experience the fireworks of the peninsula at night.

Although, there is really nothing to see in this shabby place called Seoul.

The so-called Seoul delicacies are too mediocre.

Of course, the scumbag took advantage of her a lot on the journey back to the city after the incident.

However, at this point, Hanyu Hideki had basically done everything he should have done except failing to completely defeat Li Fuzhen.

……

After dealing with the fight at Peninsula Advanced Electronics Industry Co., Ltd., he attended Zhao Zhenen's party in order to repay a favor.

In the following period, Hideki Hanyu will continue to stay in South Korea to ensure that the negotiations on the tripartite cooperation are thoroughly completed during his stay.

After all, he didn't want to give up halfway and have to do it again later.

However, although he was in South Korea, he did not stop working on other work.

Chiba Xun, who returned to Hong Kong with a group of Hong Kong tycoons, reported to him that after some discussion, the Hong Kong tycoons finally made up their minds and were ready to carry out the land transaction.

The most efficient among them is the richest man Li. The most valuable industrial land in the Tokai area of ​​Daejeon District was basically swallowed up by the richest man Li.

With a transaction value of over US$200 million for industrial land alone, Hideki Hanyu also combined and sold two commercial apartment buildings in Sapporo for US$63 million.

Of course, this transaction alone is not enough to satisfy Mr. Li, the richest man.

After spending $300 million, Mr. Li, the richest man, finally got the stepping stone to buy land in a better location.

A commercial and residential land in Taito District, Tokyo, is already under inspection by Mr. Li, the richest man in China. Hanyu Hideki fulfilled his promise and said that the land can be negotiated.

However, whether Mr. Li can buy it in the end is not something that Hideki Hanyu can guarantee.

This would be the same even if the land belonged to Hideki Hanyu.

Because it is not only the wealthy people in Hong Kong who are interested in this land, some local companies in Japan are also very interested in this land.

All Hideki Hanyu can guarantee is to give Mr. Li, the richest man, a fair chance to compete.

As for who will win in the end, of course it will be the one with the highest bid.

This is also the case in most cases when Hideki Hanyu sells land at this point in time. Many land and properties are actually not worth selling.

Especially real estate within the 23 wards of Tokyo.

Those scattered single-family houses and apartment buildings are sold very quickly, and the prices are usually much higher than today's market prices.

This is the case when Hideki Hanyu has held on to some prime real estate and is planning to let Hanyu Real Estate operate it. After all, there are so many people in the company, it is impossible for them all to be disbanded suddenly.

With the example of Mr. Li, other Hong Kong tycoons have also accelerated their actions.

In order to better serve these wealthy people, Hanyu Hideki not only let Chiba Kaoru temporarily station in Hong Kong as a liaison between Japan and Hong Kong.

He also asked Yoshihiro Yada to organize a special service team, which covers everything from leading the wealthy to visit the property locations to providing one-stop services for real estate transactions.

In a word, the goal is to make these sellers spend their money happily, comfortably and smoothly.

From the time he traveled through time to the present, Hanyu Hideki's six-year layout in real estate has finally come to fruition. How could he not pay attention to it?

Of course, although Hideki Hanyu is now cashing in and selling his properties, and is receiving huge amounts of money all the time, the actual profits are not as exaggerated as imagined.

All along, he has been trying to get something for nothing.

A large part of the money is actually bank loans.

What he earned was only the portion of the housing price increase.

And the bank’s loan interest must be deducted from this part.

This is because the real estate market in Japan has seen such an astonishing growth in the past five or six years, otherwise Hideki Hanyu might not even earn as much as the banks.

However, if Hanyu Hideki's thoughts at this moment were heard by Kitahara Eri who likes to tease him, she would definitely ask another question.

Were all of Hanyu-san's loans paid for in Japanese yen?
Ok……

Of course, Hideki Hanyu will not take into account the appreciation of the Japanese yen.

Moreover, after restructuring the loan, Hideki Hanyu made an overall mortgage, so he does not have to return the money to the bank in the short term.

For the time being, Hideki Hanyu can use this money to continue to play in the financial market.

At this moment.

The money that Hideki Hanyu cashed out from his real estate, plus the funds controlled by Hideki Kamiya, plus the cash flow from Elf Entertainment that Hideki Hanyu has not touched over the years.

Just adding them up, the maximum amount of funds that Hideki Hanyu can mobilize now is almost catching up with the current market value of Tohoku Energy.

After two weeks of growth, Tohoku Energy's share price has now reached 1997.6 yen, and its total market value has officially exceeded trillion yen.

Converted into US dollars based on the real-time exchange rate, it exceeds 17.4 billion US dollars.

At this moment, the country's foreign exchange reserves have just exceeded 3 billion US dollars.

What does it mean to be extremely wealthy?

He is now.

This is only the funds he controls, not including the asset value of Northeast Energy, Yunshang System, Jingling System, and other investments.

At this time, he should go and accept an interview with Forbes magazine and completely confess all his wealth. He would be guaranteed that the other party would immediately publish a special issue and use him to replace Yoshiaki Tsutsumi from the throne of the richest man.

Of course, unless he's crazy.

Otherwise, I would never do this.

Being ranked in the top ten in the world in terms of wealth is already high-profile enough for him.

Now that Northeast Energy has gone public, part of his net worth has been exposed again.

Even if he doesn't disclose the information himself, his total net worth will surely be over 10 billion US dollars in next year's Forbes list, and he might even make it into the top five.

In this situation, there was really no need for him to create any more trouble.

In addition to being concerned about the cashing out of real estate.

Hideki Hanyu naturally has to pay attention to other things as well.

In May, on the first day of midsummer, Satoru Iwata called him to report two good news.

First of all, after a long period of negotiations, Pokemon Entertainment finally completed the signing of a copyright licensing agreement with Toho, incorporating Godzilla, Japan's most classic monster image, into the Monster Universe project proposed by Hideki Hanyu.

Including the "King Kong" copyright that Hideki Hanyu acquired from De Laurentiis Entertainment Group in America.

At this point, the Monster Universe project of Elf Entertainment can finally be implemented.

Iwata also attached great importance to the Monster Universe project, and even decided to set up a project team composed of Japan and America to plan and implement the "Monster Universe".

According to Iwata's plan, Elf Entertainment will announce this huge plan at the E3 Entertainment Expo in Las Vegas this summer.

For the first phase of MonsterVerse alone, Satoru Iwata plans to produce more than three games and a spin-off TV series.

And it is a TV series that is a collaboration between Neon and America.

By then, Yunshang Cinema, Dongbao, and Yunshang Pictures will all be involved.

According to Hideki Hanyu's design, "Monster Universe" is definitely not a simple IP limited to Japan or America. It will be an ambitious entertainment IP project spanning the entire world.

As the stock market develops, Hanyu Hideki will also attract game and entertainment companies from different regions and countries to participate and produce different projects in different regions.

Of course, Hideki Hanyu did not forget to let Satoshi Iwata set a trap for Toho from the very beginning.

Although Godzilla is important, he is definitely not the absolute protagonist like in his previous life.

Whether it is developing new popular monsters or using its existing copyrights as the protagonists, Elf Entertainment must be prepared to fall out with Toho at any time and then cut ties directly.

As the saying goes, "He who does not plan for eternity is not qualified to plan for the present; he who does not plan for the overall situation is not qualified to plan for a region."

Hideki Hanyu dares to conclude that once Pokemon Entertainment successfully operates the "Monster Universe" and obtains increasing profits, Toho will definitely want to seek more benefits.

Elf Entertainment and Cloud Entertainment have been planning the "Monster Universe" for more than ten or twenty years, but this is not to help Toho.

The irreconcilability and difficulty in distributing interests evenly in the future are almost foreseeable.

Of course, since Hanyu Hideki has already anticipated this outcome, he will definitely not let Toho succeed. I believe that by that time, Toho will either give up, take what he deserves, or finally break up with Elf Entertainment regardless of everything.

They will never be the ones who suffer in the end.

At least the current contract stipulates that completed projects belong to the partners in common. Regardless of whether Toho continues to renew the contract in the future, as long as Elf Entertainment continues to distribute profits according to the distribution conditions agreed upon when the contract was signed, the completed projects will not be taken off the shelves.

In addition to the Monster Universe, which was realized after long negotiations, another good news for Pokemon Entertainment came from its R&D center in America.

Since the successful launch of the PS console two years ago, Hideki Hanyu has not been satisfied with the existing achievements. Instead, he immediately assembled R&D personnel from America and Japan and invested heavily to start the development of the second-generation PS console.

Although it is just a small home console, this next-generation console project, which Hideki Hanyu regards as the opening of a new 3D era, carries too many expectations from Hideki Hanyu.

At the beginning of the research and development, Hideki Hanyu invited technical personnel from Elf Entertainment to develop the world's first generation 3D game engine, the Elf Engine.

In order to better handle the 3D effects, they even found a way to buy the System G system from Sony, which was not valued by Sony.

Of course, it is also necessary to secretly cooperate with Shenling Vision to develop a graphics processing chip exclusively for the second-generation PS console.

In order to meet the size of 3D games, Elf Entertainment is also spending a huge amount of money to purchase patents and develop read-only CDs specifically for the second-generation PS console.

Even the Shining Research Institute is helping the second-generation PlayStation console develop semiconductor hardware for archive storage based on CD game discs.

In addition to a better audio system, operating handles and control modes that are compatible with 3D games, and a new 'Elf Scepter' development platform specifically for the development of second-generation PS console games, there are other related supporting systems and hardware.

What Elf Entertainment is currently developing seems to be just the development of a console.

But in fact, what Elf Entertainment actually implemented was the research and development of a whole new system.

It is a groundbreaking system that will completely "innovate" existing PS consoles and all other competing products.

Today, the world's mainstream game companies are still struggling with the 8-bit and 16-bit consoles, worrying that the games on these consoles will not be compatible with each other.

However, Hideki Hanyu has already led Elf Entertainment and is marching towards the next era without hesitation.

Before, Elf Entertainment's competitors might have been able to compete with Elf Entertainment on 8-bit and 16-bit machines.

But everything that Jingling Entertainment is doing now may be something that its competitors cannot understand.

Hideki Hanyu, a man who transcends time, started planning everything for Elf Entertainment many years ago, although the final results have not yet been achieved.

However, such a long period of technological accumulation and leading advantages cannot be caught up by competitors in a short period of time.

It’s just a pity that when Iwata reported the good news to Hideki Hanyu, he deliberately kept it a secret, saying that Hanyu would know the answer only if he went to the R&D center himself.

And he promised to give Hanyu Hideki a surprise.

In response to this, Hideki Hanyu did not force any further questions, intending to keep the surprise until the end.

Of course, he had already decided to head to America after finishing his business in South Korea.

In addition to going to the R&D center in America, he should also visit the two pairs of mother and daughter in America, and by the way, bring Kuroki Hitomi and her daughter back from America.

Unlike Liu Xiaoli who wanted to stay in America, Kuroki Hitomi was only focused on her career in Tokyo.

Even while she was still in Los Angeles, she called Hideki Hanyu and asked him to hire a nanny in Tokyo to take care of her daughter.

This shows how ambitious this woman is.

I was like this as an actor in my previous life.

The same is true for running an office today.

In addition to these things, there are many other tasks that Hideki Hanyu needs to handle and understand personally.

In addition to official business, Hideki Hanyu did not forget that he promised readers in an interview with NHK that he would release the eighth part of "Magic Pastry Shop" this year.

So whenever he has time, he would sit down at his desk and create.

In addition, there are things in South Korea that need his attention.

Needless to say, the negotiation work was necessary. The previously favored Itaewon land also required transaction procedures with Lee Gun-sik, and then contacting the design company and construction company, etc.

As for the matter of selling the land to Cho Jung-eun, the matter was discussed in detail after Cho Jung-eun's father, the president of Taeyoung Construction, returned from East Asia.

Afterwards, the other party sent representatives to Neon for inspection, and Hanyu Hideki had to arrange someone to receive them.

In such a busy pace, time passed quickly and it was May 6th.

Just yesterday, after several months of negotiations, Yunshang Entertainment, Samsung, and Taerung Construction finally reached an agreement on cooperation negotiations on radio and television stations.

First of all, the radio and television station, Yunshang Entertainment eventually obtained 19.5% of the shares.

As the most important force in the early development of the TV station, the provider of all professionals, technology and equipment, it is naturally unfair for Yunshang Entertainment to only gain this small share.

Moreover, these shares are controlled through extremely complex methods, using layers of nesting and various indirect shareholding methods.

After all, in order to avoid certain policy restrictions and reduce related problems in the future, Yunshang Entertainment had no choice but to accept such conditions and implement such a complex shareholding method.

Of course, to make up for the losses of Elf Entertainment.

Also to bypass certain restrictions.

The three partners decided to set up an organization independent of the radio and television station, but fully responsible for the content production of the radio and television station.

In this production company, Yunshang Entertainment took a 43.9% stake.

The new radio and television station was named "Peninsula Broadcasting" after discussion among the three parties.

The English name is “Peninsula Broadcasting System”, abbreviated as PBS.

The separately established production organization was named "Peninsula Content Production Bureau."

The headquarters of PBS radio and television station will be located in Mok-dong, Yangcheon District, Seoul. At the same time, a network will be gradually built in Daegu, Gwangju, Daejeon, Cheongju, Jeonju, Ulsan and other places.

As a content provider, the Peninsula Content Production Bureau will tentatively have two parts.

First, the filming center, which is located in Mok-dong, Yangcheon-gu together with the TV station's headquarters, will be built with a studio, multimedia center and other supporting facilities that belong exclusively to PBS TV station.

The second one is located in Chungmuro, which is known as the future film and television center of South Korea. It is the business center of the Peninsula Content Production Bureau.

And today is the day when the tripartite cooperation agreement is officially signed.

The signing ceremony was scheduled for 11 o'clock and the venue was located at the Shilla Hotel.

At eight o'clock in the morning, Hideki Hanyu woke up from bed.

Because of his movement, a beautiful woman with an attractive figure was awakened. After crawling out of the quilt with sleepy eyes, she asked Hanyu Hideki, "Sir, why are you up so early?"

This beauty was none other than Selena, who was previously "recommended" to him by Park Wan-gyu.

Recently, there have been too many things going on, and the scumbag couldn't take Li Fuzhen down directly, so he often called Selena to relax.

"I'm going to exercise now. You wake her up and leave here together before I come back."

Hearing what Hanyu Hideki said, Selena reached out and lifted the quilt.

Only then could one see that in addition to Hanyu Hideki and Selena, there was actually another naked beauty lying on the bed.

However, unlike Selena, who has a mature look and a hot body, this beauty has a baby face and a petite figure.

Hideki Hanyu's physical condition has recently reached a bottleneck again. He can no longer enjoy himself relying on Selena alone, so he chose one more person to relax.

But compared to Selena, this baby-faced beauty can withstand less.

Selena could still be woken up by Hideki Hanyu, but the baby-faced beauty had to be called by Selena several times before she woke up exhausted.

However, just as he woke up, Hideki Hanyu hit him with two stacks of US dollars.

Looking at the colorful banknotes, the baby-faced beauty's sleepiness was instantly stimulated and dissipated.

"Tell her I was very satisfied last night."

Hideki Hanyu said this to Selena.

It's not that he doesn't want to talk to the baby-faced beauty, but this woman's English is terrible. After meeting her twice, Hanyu Hideki still doesn't know her name, and he has always called her "Yin Ya".

Besides, they are just friendly matches and there won’t be much connection in the future. Knowing the names or not will not prevent Hideki Hanyu from relaxing.

Of course, in addition to money, Hanyu Hideki had previously promised Selena that he would support her in the Miss Korea pageant, and he also promised other benefits to 'Yin Ya'.

That is, after today's signing is completed, the other party will be sent to Neon for training to become the first batch of local anchors of PBS TV station in the future.

After all, Baby Face's English is so poor that she is destined not to do well in the Miss Korea pageant.

Taking advantage of the early stage of PBS TV station, future development may not be worse than participating in the Miss South Korea pageant.

Of course, on the surface, this was a benefit given by Hideki Hanyu to the two women.

But Augustus Entertainment, the company the two women signed contracts with, is his company. He made the two women famous, which is also good for him.

But with the little money the two women earn, Hideki Hanyu probably doesn't think highly of it.

Yin Ya, who came for the second time, was still a little uncomfortable with Hanyu Hideki's ruthless attitude of sending people away after playing, but Selena, who was already familiar with it, was already saying words of thanks skillfully.

When Hanyu Hideki returned from his workout, the stylist was already preparing in the living room, but the two women were no longer in sight.

If he were in Japan, Hanyu Hideki would never be so reckless in looking for female artists signed by his company to relax.

But in South Korea, Hanyu Hideki feels that he is becoming more and more unscrupulous in these relaxed behaviors.
Sure enough, the soil and water support the people.

Although his career has just started in South Korea, he has already begun to experience the legendary happiness that belongs only to chaebols.
