Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 649 News from Luo Zhaohui
"Mr. Hanyu, you know me well. If there is no beauty by my side, I feel no pleasure in eating."

Inside the box, Hanyu Hideki was playing poker with Boss Huang while listening to him chatting.

But he believed what the other party said.

After all, if you look at the news in later generations, the other party did have hookups with quite a few women.

There are even rumors that the mother of a pair of sisters in Taiwan in later generations once worked as a housekeeper for this guy, or to be more precise, a "housekeeper" in the harem.

Later, the housekeeper's two daughters were able to enter the entertainment industry with the help of Mr. Huang. It was once rumored that he adopted the eldest daughter as his goddaughter.

However, these are all rumors that emerged after the rise of the Internet. I am afraid that no one knows the truth except the parties involved.

But at this moment, the scumbag can be sure of one thing.

That was the young woman sitting next to him at that moment, wearing a red dress, big wavy hair, and makeup imitating the style of a Japanese white-collar beauty. She was none other than "Xiao Qiang", who was later hailed by the media as the most beautiful woman in Taiwan.

According to Mr. Huang, Xiao Qiang was still in her last year of college and had just signed a contract with a modeling agency in which he had invested.

After the dinner ended yesterday, Boss Huang wanted to treat Hanyu Hideki well, so he asked his men to go to the modeling agency to find a beauty to accompany Hanyu Hideki, and finally chose Xiao Qiang.

When Xiao Qiang appeared just now, Boss Huang said with regret on his face that if he had known Xiao Qiang was such a beauty, he would definitely not have used her to entertain Hanyu Hideki, but would have kept her for himself.

But in Hideki Hanyu's eyes, what Boss Huang said was a bit exaggerated.

Because no matter in his past life or this life, Hanyu Hideki could not appreciate Xiao Qiang's beauty.

Of course, it would be nonsense to say that Xiao Qiang was not beautiful during this period. She was youthful, beautiful, and curvy, and the charm of a young girl was undoubtedly revealed.

The most important thing is that this girl is charming at the age of 20, and has an attraction to men beyond her beauty.

After all, when Xiao Qiang first became known to Taiwanese audiences through the TV series "Deep Love Without Regrets", the title given to her by the media was not "the most beautiful woman" but "the most beautiful peach on earth".

Just from this nickname, you can see some of Xiao Qiang's characteristics.

At this time, facing Hanyu Hideki, Xiao Qiang also tried her best to show her charm and try to win Hanyu Hideki's favor.

While sticking her whole body to Hanyu Hideki, she made various noises while watching Hanyu Hideki play cards, expressing surprise, doubt, or asking questions in the sweet tone of a little girl.

For example, in this hand, Hideki Hanyu lost a large handful of cards to Boss Huang, and he casually counted out a thick stack of chips and threw it over.

Boss Huang took the chips and laughed, "Sir, you are a great poker player. You have been winning since the beginning. I finally got my money back."

Hanyu Hideki said unhappily, "My previous wins combined are not as much as what I lost this time. Boss Huang is the real hidden talent."

"Haha, this is the first time Mr. Hanyu plays poker here, and it's amazing that you can play so well." Boss Huang flattered.

"Winning or losing is not important. I've been either conducting inspections or entertaining people these past few days. Just think of it as Boss Huang accompanying me to relax."

Hearing Hanyu Hideki's nonchalant tone, Xiao Qiang, who didn't know how much Hanyu Hideki and Boss Huang were playing, asked curiously in a delicate voice, "Mr. Hanyu, did you lose a lot this time?"

"It's just a little money." Hanyu Hideki responded casually and continued to play with Boss Huang.

However, Hanyu Hideki didn't say anything, but the boss Huang on the other side said with a smile, "One card is 200,000. Mr. Hanyu just lost 11 cards, which is 2.2 million Taiwan dollars."

As soon as Boss Huang said this, everyone including Xiao Qiang and several girls who were creating a lively atmosphere couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

As one of the four Asian tigers today, Taiwan's national income is among the highest in Asia.

The basic monthly salary for job openings is around 30,000 to 40,000 Wanwan dollars. If you factor in various subsidies and benefits, it is not difficult to earn over 100,000 Wanwan dollars a month.

But the high income of ordinary people, the money saved from working hard for two or three years, is not enough for Hideki Hanyu to lose in one game at the poker table.

But after being amazed, Xiao Qiang remembered Hanyu Hideki's identity, and then she realized that the little money Hanyu Hideki mentioned was not an exaggeration.

Not to mention the net worth of the world's top ten super-rich people.

Just in Taiwan, she heard her agent talk about Hideki Hanyu's industry when she came here, and she didn't know much about it.

From Taichung to Keelung, not to mention the factories in which Hideki Hanyu has invested, there are even many factories that rely on Hanyu's orders for their livelihood.

However, these manufacturing-related things are too far away from Xiao Qiang herself.

Let’s just talk about things related to the entertainment industry she’s in.

Yunhua Records, which was established only two years ago, has already demonstrated its dominance in the Taiwanese music scene.

Singers under his label, such as Jiang Yuheng, Ye Huan, Zheng Zhihua, Wang Jie, Zhang Yusheng, and Zhou Huajian from Li Zongsheng's studio, all had their records sell out, making a big splash in the Taiwanese music scene.

His agent told him that the reason why Peng Guohua was able to become independent from Rolling Stone Records was because of the support of QQ Music (Asia).

And according to what she learned from her agent, such an exaggerated Yunhua Records Company is only a part of Hideki Hanyu's territory in the Taiwanese entertainment industry.

Yunshang Entertainment also invested in and acquired Zhang Xiaoyan's Kaili Company, signed a large number of new talents, poached famous artists, and jointly created Taiwan's most popular idol talent show "Youth Creation Camp".

This variety show was previously co-organized with CTS.

However, with the establishment of the new TV station Zhongyun TV Station, after Zhang Xiaoyan jumped to Zhongyun TV Station as deputy director, this program also began to cooperate with Zhongyun TV Station.

Needless to say, Yunshang Entertainment is also behind Zhongyun TV Station.

In addition to these, there is also the Crescent Cinemas, which has suddenly started to expand wildly in Taiwan since last year, and the video rental store Blockbuster.

There are also many media companies, newspapers, magazines, comics, etc. that have received investments or direct funding.

Yunshang Entertainment, a giant in the Asian media industry, has begun to expand frantically in Taiwan, taking advantage of the transition from the old to the new with its exaggerated financial resources and unrivaled attitude.

At this moment, he has become a giant in the local entertainment circle and the entire media industry.

But even senior people in the industry say these are mostly rumors and cannot provide any substantial evidence.

After all, Yunshang Entertainment basically does not directly appear in its expansion in Taiwan. Instead, it uses huge funds to invest in or support local forces, allowing these people to stand on the stage openly.

Perhaps because of their wealth, all companies rumored to be supported by Yunshang Entertainment have very good treatment and reputation for their artists and employees.

In the music field, the clear division and fair profit-sharing system have made many musicians who were exploited by their original record companies yearn to join Yunhua Records.

The TV station pays the highest salaries to its employees and the highest fees to its artists in Taiwan, and it also gives creators greater freedom.

This enabled Zhongyun TV Station to successfully poach many ace producers and on-stage figures from other TV stations after its establishment.

The reputation of the signed artists is also very good.

Benefiting from the advantages of owning theaters, music, television stations, print media, etc., artists not only get more exposure, but are also rarely assigned by the company to attend certain social events.

Even some dark forces are unwilling to harass because of the background of the investors and their influence on the upper echelons.

Xiao Qiang thought about this and looked at Hanyu Hideki who was still playing cards beside her.

This tall and handsome man, who is qualified to be a star, is the owner of that huge thing.

Talented, wealthy, handsome, and young and romantic, such a man is enough to satisfy all women's fantasies, and his attraction to any woman is indescribable.

The young women who were responsible for livening up the atmosphere obviously didn't know Hanyu Hideki's true background, otherwise Xiao Qiang felt that she would not only have to please Hanyu Hideki, but also face competition from other women.

Although she prides herself on being beautiful and not afraid of competition, it would be nice to have less trouble.

But just when Xiao Qiang was thinking about this, she felt Hanyu Hideki beside her reach out and pat her buttocks.

"Why are you in a daze? You don't even answer when I ask you a question."

Xiao Qiang came to her senses and said quickly, "I'm sorry, I was distracted just now. What did you say, sir?"

Hanyu Hideki asked, "I asked you if you know how to play this kind of cards?"

Xiao Qiang nodded and said, "I played with my classmates at school."

Hearing this answer, Hanyu Hideki pointed to a friend of Mr. Huang who was playing cards with them and said, "Go and replace him."

"Me?" Xiao Qiang pointed at herself, her face full of surprise.

"Yeah, I've been losing these few rounds. I feel like I'll have better luck playing cards facing a beautiful woman." Hanyu Hideki said as if jokingly.

Upon hearing this, Boss Huang also started laughing and joked that his friend was too ugly.

However, amid the jokes of the crowd, Xiao Qiang said softly, "But sir, I can't afford to play such a big card as yours."

Hanyu Hideki smiled and said, "Don't worry, Miss Xiao. Just play boldly. If you lose tonight, it's mine, and if you win, it's yours."

"Haha, that's right. With Mr. Hanyu here, I'm not worried about not having money to play cards. It doesn't matter if I lose. At most, I can just spend the night with Mr. Hanyu."

When Boss Huang agreed, he decisively gave an assist to Hideki Hanyu.

In fact, this was because it was the first time that he played with Hanyu Hideki in such an occasion. Otherwise, with Boss Huang's personality, he would have been full of dirty jokes.

Hanyu Hideki patted Xiao Qiang's buttocks again and said, "Go ahead. If you have the ability to win all our chips, I promise to let you take them all away."

When Xiao Qiang heard this and looked at the tens of millions of chips on the table, her heartbeat suddenly quickened and she became so excited that she could hardly control herself.

When she sat on the chair, she couldn't help but start fantasizing. With her card-playing skills at school, she might become a multi-millionaire tonight.

Unfortunately, fantasy is beautiful, but reality is cruel.

Young Xiao Qiang's opponents at the poker table are: one is a casino veteran and frequent guest, Mr. Huang, and the other is a time traveler who can replay his memories frame by frame.

As a result, after playing poker in the middle of the night, when Boss Huang suggested going to another private room to sing, Xiao Qiang was already in a daze from losing so much.

She couldn't remember how many times Hideki Hanyu had given her chips.

But just a rough calculation shows that the money she lost was more than 15 million Taiwan dollars.

Although at the beginning, Hideki Hanyu said that whatever he lost would be his.

But at this moment, Xiao Qiang felt that she had lost too much money.

Faced with such a huge sum of money, if a rich man like Hanyu Hideki goes back on his word and insists that she recognize the money, she will have no way to defend herself.

The most important thing is that no matter whether it is Boss Huang or Hideki Hanyu, no matter what she is asked to do because of the money, she has no ability to resist and can only be slaughtered by the rich.

At this moment, Xiao Qiang regretted very much why she was blinded by wealth and easily agreed to play cards.

After all, it’s not unheard of after entering the circle that some girls fell into the hands of certain people because of this kind of thing, and ended up doing a lot of things they didn’t want to do.

In this state of trance and regret, Xiao Qiang suddenly felt someone holding her waist.

Turning around, she found that it was Hanyu Hideki who was hugging her.

Looking at Hideki Hanyu, Xiao Qiang quickly imagined countless plots in her mind.

She felt that the next moment, Hanyu Hideki would definitely ask her to pay back the money.

Then because she couldn't afford it, she had to agree to countless unequal conditions.

Seeing Xiao Qiang feeling sorry for herself and looking like she was about to cry, Hanyu Hideki asked in confusion.

"What's wrong with you? Didn't you let me hug you just now? Why don't you want to hug me now?"

Xiao Qiang was stunned when she heard this, and then asked stupidly, "Sir, don't you want me to pay you back?"

"Pay back the money?"

Hideki Hanyu looked stunned, then he reacted and laughed.

"Haha, so that's what you're worried about. Didn't I say that if I lose, it's mine, and if I win, it's yours? Would I, Hanyu Hideki, break my promise just for a little money?"

"But that's not a small amount of money." Xiao Qiang still hasn't recovered from losing more than 10 million.

"Not for you, but just a little for me. And even though you lost, I won, so I didn't lose much in the end."

Hanyu Hideki said nonchalantly and pointed at the card table.

"The other girls received their rewards from me. I am glad you played cards with me. These remaining chips are your reward. Go and get them."

Xiao Qiang looked in the direction pointed by Hanyu Hideki and found a small pile of chips neatly arranged where Hanyu Hideki had originally sat. It looked like there were no less than two million Taiwan dollars.

Seeing that Xiao Qiang didn't move, Hanyu Hideki asked again, "Why, don't you want it?"

Xiao Qiang looked at the chips on the table in front of her and listened to Hanyu Hideki's words, and the confusion and regret in her heart disappeared.

She immediately turned to Hanyu Hideki who was hugging her and said, "Thank you, sir."

Then she offered her flaming red lips without hesitation.

After a while, the scumbag patted Xiao Qiang's buttocks, signaling the other party to stop.

After the lip-parting, the scumbag said to the beauty, "Okay, Boss Huang has already arranged a private room, you collect your chips and we'll go to another place."

After hearing this, Xiao Qiang realized that the box was empty.

She hurriedly followed Hanyu Hideki's instructions, handed the chips to the waiter to be recorded, received the receipt so that she could exchange it for money at any time, and then followed Hanyu Hideki to another karaoke box.

However, when Hanyu Hideki brought Xiao Qiang into the new box, the next moment they saw a sexy scene of "a group of demons dancing wildly".

The beauties who were responsible for livening up the atmosphere before were now all cool and wearing thin and transparent gauze clothes, dancing in the box to the music.

As a veteran in the entertainment industry, Hanyu Hideki had no reaction to this. He just put his arm around Xiao Qiang and sat down.

In contrast, Xiao Qiang, who had just entered the industry, did not dare to look up at anything in the box.

Seeing this, Boss Huang smiled and teased, "Miss Xiao wants to make a living in the Taiwanese entertainment industry, so she should get used to this kind of scene quickly."

But after saying that, this guy immediately followed up with a chuckle and said, "I almost forgot, if Miss Xiao had Mr. Hanyu's support, there would be no need for her to attend such a social event."

While Boss Huang was speaking, he also gave a wink to Hanyu Hideki, obviously helping Hanyu Hideki to get an assist.

Although Hanyu Hideki already had Xiao Qiang under his control, he still appreciated Boss Huang's kindness and secretly gave him a thumbs up to show his gratitude.

Next, Hideki Hanyu didn’t stay in the karaoke bar for long. After all, he was not really interested in the style that Boss Huang liked.

When he left, he naturally took Xiao Qiang with him.

That night, Hideki Hanyu basically spent the entire night in a five-star hotel in Taipei, and did not return to his Yangmingshan mansion until the early morning.

How to describe this night?

First of all, I didn’t get much rest. I was happy and comfortable all night long.

Then, apart from the sense of accomplishment brought by the other person's identity, the feeling of the scumbag in other aspects can only be described as average.

This is not her first time, so she does not have the ignorance and awkwardness that scumbags like, and she also lacks the charm and experience of a mature beauty.

To sum it up, it was just a friendly match, and even in a friendly match played by a scumbag, apart from the identity of the opponent, the enjoyment could only be considered at a middle-to-lower level.

In the end, the scumbag gave some good money and promised to help find some opportunities, and the first encounter with the most beautiful woman ended.

As for whether there will be any social interactions in the future, the scumbag has no interest in it in the short term.

Of course, after experiencing this incident, Hideki Hanyu also discovered one thing, that is, he has too few rabbit nests in Taiwan.

Now that Li Jiaxin lives in the mansion in Yangmingshan, it is not convenient for him to bring other women back.

So when the 25th came, Hanyu Hideki continued his inspection trip and immediately instructed his subordinates to help him look for suitable properties in Taipei.

After all, as a world-renowned super-rich man, it is totally inconsistent with his status to always take beautiful women to hotels to spend the night.

After all, any celebrity in later generations can easily own dozens of properties overseas. When he calculated his properties outside Japan, he concluded that they were too few.

Of course, buying property is just a small matter.

His main purpose of coming to Southeast Asia this time is to inspect the investments of subordinate enterprises.

However, he was delayed for a day in Taiwan because of TSMC's affairs, so he had to work overtime to inspect other targets in the plan. He even found time to go to Yunhua Music to meet Peng Guohua and visit Zhongyun TV Station.

In this way, Hideki Hanyu did not leave Taiwan until the morning of the 27th and headed for his next stop, Vietnam.

On the 27th and 28th, Hanyu Hideki inspected some investments in Vietnam and Thailand respectively, but was not in a hurry to leave Thailand.

Because the assistant office had already helped him set up the wedding ceremony venue with Zhou Huimin in Phuket.

Speaking of this matter, I must mention an episode.

That is, although the assistant office has chosen a place here, it has encountered a lot of resistance and trouble in using the old church.

The assistant office's final suggestion to Hanyu Hideki was to simply buy the church and the nearby beach.

After all, after analysis, the quality of that beach is very good and the geographical location is also very good. If the church can be renovated and a resort can be built around the church, the future business prospects will be very good.

Hideki Hanyu thought that his development plan for AI International already included the idea of ​​leveraging the influence of luxury goods to operate high-end luxury hotels, so he agreed to this decision.

Then he made some use of his investment connections in Thailand and got the matter done as quickly as possible.

Although the land formalities are still in process, it does not prevent him from acting as the owner and holding the wedding on the beach and in the church that already belong to him.

On the 28th, the Yunshang flew back to Hong Kong, bringing more than 20 guests including Zhou Huimin and Zhou's mother.

On the 29th, a wedding was held, which seemed very romantic and shocking to the guests.

After all, for Zhou Huimin's relatives and friends, Hanyu Hideki used a private plane that looked like a palace to pick them up in order to hold this wedding.

And for the wedding venue, they even bought a beach and a church. How could people not be shocked by such a series of exaggerated operations?

After the wedding, Hanyu Hideki invited the guests to travel in Thailand for a few days and prepared to go to Singapore with Zhou Huimin.

In addition to continuing the inspection itinerary, he also planned to accompany Zhou Huimin in Singapore for a few days, just to treat it as a short honeymoon with the girl.

However, due to a call from Luo Zhaohui in Hong Kong, he had to temporarily postpone his trip to Singapore and take Zhou Huimin to Hong Kong first.

This is what Luo Zhaohui said on the phone.

"Boss, you asked me to pay attention to the land leasing in Magic City. You are going to hold an investment promotion conference tomorrow."
