Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 661 Wasted Ability
August 18th.

Hideki Hanyu's private jet, 'Clouds', landed at Hong Kong's Kai Tak International Airport.

This time he came to Hong Kong, nominally at the invitation of Jackie Chan, to join Jackie Chan's personal international image management company, a collaboration between Jackie Chan, Yunshang Entertainment and Elf Communication.

But in fact, Hideki Hanyu was just looking for a reason to leave Neon and avoid the gossip there.

After all, even if others don't know, Hideki Hanyu must be clear.

At this moment, the Recruit bribery case has only just begun.

Karl Map, who has arrived in Washington, D.C. and officially started working with Hideki Hanyu, sent a message not long ago.

It has been confirmed that America is involved in this matter, and is apparently even intensifying its efforts. Karl Map advises Hideki Hanyu not to get involved and it is best to stay away from it for the time being.

It can be said that at the center of the storm in Tokyo, some people seem to have been completely trapped, some are still struggling, but some people who are about to be dragged in are still unaware of it.

In another time and space, this incident, to put it bluntly, occurred and spread centered around the Recruit Group.

But in this time and space, in order to deal with Hanyu Hideki, Tokura Shunichi and his gang imitated the methods of Recruit Group's president Ezoe Hiromasa and dragged more people into the water.

From this, we can imagine that the Recruit bribery case, which is only the beginning, may eventually develop into a super event even larger than the scale of another time and space.

In this regard, Hideki Hanyu is very restrained.

He has so many listed companies in his hands, and he also knows how the Recruit Group operates to win over upper-class people, but he just hasn't learned to do it.

Of course, the industry that Hideki Hanyu runs does not really need so-called upper-level support. After all, whether it is games or media, most of the time, there is no need for so-called special care.

But even though Hideki Hanyu and his partners did not participate in these things, to some extent, they were still victims of these things. For example, Honma and others used their influence over the upper class to block the "digital satellite broadcasting license" of Yunshang Satellite TV.

But at this time, Hideki Hanyu still wanted to stay away from these things and away from the initial stage of this storm.

That's why he accepted Cheng Long's invitation.

In fact, he was not the only one who came to Hong Kong this time.

The beautiful lady Yasuko Sawaguchi, who had been accompanying him in Osaka, also came with him. In addition to Yasuko Sawaguchi, there was even sister Izumizu, Sachiko Kamachi, who was on vacation.

As the plane gradually came to a stop, Hanyu Hideki said to Sawaguchi Yasuko who was sitting next to him, "I've already said that I came to Hong Kong for work, so I don't think I'll have much time to play with you."

Hearing this, the little beauty smiled and took the arm of Kamachi Sachiko beside her and said, "So I asked Sachiko to accompany me. Hideki-kun, you can do your business, and we can just go around by ourselves."

"Then please be safe."

Hanyu Hideki gave a warning, then turned to Marco and whispered, "Arrange some people to protect them."

Marco nodded, saying nothing.

There was no need for Hanyu Hideki to ask in detail. Anyway, he always trusted Marco to do things. After so many years of getting along with each other, the two sides already had sufficient tacit understanding and trust.

Besides, the security company he cooperated with Marco, called "Wanquan", has branches in major regions of Asia, including Hong Kong, so he doesn't have to worry about manpower issues at all.

After the plane came to a complete stop and the captain announced that everyone could get off the plane, Hideki Hanyu unfastened his seat belts and led everyone towards the cabin door.

On the way out of the airport, Yasuko Sawaguchi and Sachiko Kamachi were quite excited and chattered non-stop, obviously looking forward to this trip to Hong Kong.

After leaving the private jet channel of the airport, Hideki Hanyu saw the people who came to pick him up, including his subordinates and the nominal inviter, Cheng Long.

When Cheng Long saw Hanyu Hideki, his face was so happy that it looked like a morning glory. He gave him a warm hug and said something.

"I'm so happy that you accepted my invitation, Hanyu!"

For a billion-dollar Asian media mogul to accept the invitation to attend the founding ceremony of a small company was really a great honor.

How could Cheng Long, who is already very concerned about his reputation, not be happy?

Hanyu Hideki also smiled and said, "Since it is Aaron's invitation, I will certainly not refuse if I have time."

"Come on! I've arranged a welcoming banquet. Let's have a nice drink tonight."

Cheng Long invited very generously.

"A drink is fine, but I need to get the people settled first."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he pursed his lips at the two beauties following behind him.

When Cheng Long saw this, an expression of "you are so awesome" immediately appeared in his eyes, and he was obviously impressed that Hideki Hanyu brought two beautiful women with him.

I can only say that this is the mutual respect between scumbags.

Hanyu Hideki did not blame the guy for his weird behavior. He turned around and told the two girls, "I'll have someone take you to your accommodation first. It's getting late now. If you want to go somewhere else, remember to bring the bodyguards arranged by Marco."

"Well, we understand." Yasuko Sawaguchi replied.

Immediately afterwards, Hanyu Hideki exchanged a few words with Marco, and then followed Cheng Long to the location of the welcoming banquet arranged by the other party.

Cheng Long, a man who worked his way up from the bottom, did not arrange a fancy place for Hanyu Hideki to have dinner with him, but instead held a busy street in Kowloon.

Walking on such a street, feeling the long-lost familiar atmosphere of life that is hard to see in neon lights, and looking at all kinds of guests on the street.

Hideki Hanyu couldn't help but think that it was a good thing that he changed his clothes before getting off the plane, otherwise it would seem too abrupt if he were still walking here in the same formal suit.

When the group arrived in front of a restaurant that looked quite old, Cheng Long pointed at the closed door and said, "This is it."

"Isn't this closed?" Hideki Hanyu asked in confusion.

Cheng Long explained, "It's closed just to entertain us. Hanyu, you have a different status, so I naturally have to make preparations in advance."

After Cheng Long finished speaking, he knocked on the shutter door and shouted, "Uncle! Open the door! I'm bringing guests here!"

Not long after the words fell, footsteps were heard in the room. When the footsteps reached the door, the roller shutter was lifted, revealing a middle-aged man with a towel around his neck.

The man saw that it was Cheng Long and greeted him with a smile, "I thought you would bring the guests later. After all, I often hear some guests say that the flight will be delayed."

Cheng Long joked, "This gentleman is on a private plane, which is reserved for one person. How could it be late? We have a distinguished guest tonight, so you must serve all your specialties and don't lose face for me."

"Don't worry, Mr. Cheng. I promise I won't ruin my reputation."

The middle-aged man said, "Please go upstairs and take a seat. I will prepare food for you."

Cheng Long immediately said, "Uncle, you go and cook. I can take the guests upstairs myself."

After Cheng Long finished speaking, he turned to Hanyu Hideki and invited him, "Let's go up. Don't underestimate this place, but the owner's Jianghu cuisine is better than that of any big restaurant."

"Okay, then I'm going to have a good taste today."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he followed Cheng Long upstairs.

He now realized that Cheng Long must have booked this small restaurant to entertain him.

I have to say that although the place that Cheng Long invited them to is a Jianghu place, the things they did were not Jianghu at all.

Actually, Hanyu Hideki didn't mind dining with other guests, but considering Cheng Long's good intentions, he wouldn't say much.

Next, under Cheng Long's hospitality, Hideki Hanyu began to taste the authentic delicacies, such as the boss's wet-fried beef noodles and flame-drunken goose, which he couldn't get enough of.

By the way, he couldn't help but chat with Uncle Long about future career development and miscellaneous interesting gossip.

Of course, for Hideki Hanyu, what he is most interested in is the interesting gossip that follows.

For example, after hearing that a certain big shot in the circle is having an affair with a female star, he will also ask a few questions with great interest. After all, it is human nature to like gossip.

Hideki Hanyu has only made a fortune now, he has not become a god. To put it bluntly, he is still a human being, and as a human being, he has the instinct to be a spectator.

"Aaron, are you telling the truth?"

When Hanyu Hideki heard a secret from Cheng Long that he had never heard of in his previous life, he instantly became interested, put down his chopsticks and started asking.

Cheng Long said with a mysterious and affirmative look on his face.

"Of course it's true. I know a lot of things. If I don't plan to work in this circle anymore, I will write an autobiography and record all the secrets in it. When I die, I will arrange for someone to publish it. Then..."

When Cheng Long was speaking excitedly, he suddenly heard a few voices downstairs. It was the boss and it seemed like someone else. Hanyu Hideki didn't hear clearly, but he interrupted Cheng Long.

Immediately afterwards, a man walked up the stairs. He seemed to be the man who had been with Chen Long when they met him at the airport just now. He should be one of the people who followed Cheng Long.

Maybe he is a member of the Cheng family, but Hideki Hanyu doesn’t know him.

The man came to Cheng Long and said a few words to him with a strange expression.

After listening to this, Cheng Long turned to look at Hanyu Hideki and said, "My people just went out to buy cigarettes, and they ran into a few of his friends who came to this restaurant to eat. They knew that I had booked the restaurant here, and asked if they could come in to eat. That..."

Seeing Cheng Long's embarrassed expression, Hanyu Hideki said indifferently, "It's okay, I'm not ashamed to see people. Since they are people you know, just ask them to come."

Cheng Long's expression relaxed when he heard this. He told the man who was talking to let someone in, and said to Hanyu Hideki, "Actually, Mr. Hanyu knows the people who came. They are all actors in the circle."

"Oh, who is there?"

Just as Hanyu Hideki asked this question, the sound of a rolling door being pulled was heard downstairs, followed by a series of footsteps walking up the stairs, and then several people appeared in Hanyu Hideki's eyes.

At this point, Cheng Long didn't need to answer, as Hanyu Hideki recognized who they were.

It should be said that the people who came were several women.

The first person to come up was Wu Junru, who still had long hair.

Following Wu Junru is Liu Jialing, who is still working hard in TVB dramas.

Then, a petite beauty in a red dress appeared. She was Qiu Shuzhen, who had once had a one-night stand with the scumbag.

The last person to come up following the three was a beautiful woman wearing a plaid shirt and with black hair draped over her shoulders. If Hanyu Hideki was not mistaken, it was Lan Jieying, who suffered a tragic fate in later life.

Seeing these women, Hanyu Hideki could only say that four of TVB's 'Nine Dragon Girls' had come at once.

As for these girls who had just finished work at TVB and had made an appointment to come here for dinner, after they were allowed to come in, they could have just sat downstairs.

The reason why these people came up was naturally to express their gratitude to Cheng Long.

Of course, after learning from Cheng Long's men that Hideki Hanyu was also here, he couldn't help but say hello to Hideki Hanyu.

Speaking of which, except Lan Jieying, the other three girls actually knew Hanyu Hideki to some extent and had met him more than once.

Especially Qiu Shuzhen, the relationship between them can definitely be described as very close.

Therefore, after the other three girls greeted Hanyu Hideki, the girl directly gave Hanyu Hideki a suggestive look, and the scumbag naturally understood what she meant without saying anything.

After the four girls said hello and went downstairs, Cheng Long of course continued to talk about topics that Hanyu Hideki was interested in.

At this time, downstairs, the four girls who were preparing to eat were chatting, and their focus was naturally on Cheng Long and Hanyu Hideki upstairs.

Wu Junru said with some surprise, "I really didn't expect that Cheng Long and Mr. Hanyu have such a good relationship."

Liu Jialing followed up and said, "Yes, I haven't heard of Mr. Hanyu coming to Hong Kong, and I didn't expect to see him being received by Cheng Long here."

The two women met each other when Hanyu Hideki first attended Mr. Shao's charity dinner and felt that they were quite familiar with Hanyu Hideki.

But today, when I suddenly saw Cheng Long receiving Hideki Hanyu here, I realized that I knew too little about Hideki Hanyu.

At this time, Lan Jieying asked curiously, "I heard that you two met Mr. Hanyu at Mr. Shao's banquet. Everyone said that he is also a shareholder of TVB. Is it true?"

"Of course that's true, but it's not him, but his company, which is Yunshang Entertainment (Asia)." It was Qiu Shuzhen who took over the conversation.

Liu Jialing beside him said with some surprise, "I didn't expect that you, Doudou, know Mr. Hanyu very well. In this way, he can be considered our boss."

"I just know a little bit." Qiu Shuzhen replied.

Of course, Qiu Shuzhen is definitely being modest. After all, she knows Hanyu Hideki very well. It's a relationship where you know me well and I know your strengths and weaknesses.

Lan Jieying, who was a little slow to realize the situation, said, "In that case, he is also our boss. Wasn't it a bit too hasty for us to greet him just now?"

"Don't worry, he's such a big shot, how could he take us seriously? He might even forget about us. Eat well and go back to rest after eating. We have to start work early tomorrow morning."

Wu Junru casually began to invite everyone to eat.

In this way, the two groups of people upstairs and downstairs talked about their own things and ate their own food.

Although Cheng Long and Hanyu Hideki arrived first, their chat did not end for a while.

On the other hand, the four girls downstairs said goodbye to each other and left after finishing their meal.

However, Wu Junru, Liu Jialing and Lan Jieying did not notice that after saying goodbye to them, Qiu Shuzhen walked around outside and then came back.

Therefore, when Hanyu Hideki and Cheng Long had eaten and drunk their fill and chatted till the end, they just walked downstairs and saw Qiu Shuzhen sitting downstairs waiting.

At this time, all the other companions had left. Qiu Shuzhen, regardless of Cheng Long being right beside him, rushed over and took Hanyu Hideki's arm and said, "Sir, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Hanyu Hideki said in a very unromantic way, "I didn't ask you to wait for me."

"But I miss you and am willing to wait for you." Qiu Shuzhen said coquettishly without any concern.

Cheng Long, who was witnessing all this, was a little stunned, wondering when these two people had a relationship and how come he had no idea about it.

In an instant, he began to admire Hanyu Hideki's ability to be a scumbag even more.

Naturally, Hideki Hanyu would not explain anything to Cheng Long about this matter.

Besides, he had a purely stamp-collecting mentality towards Qiu Shuzhen and had no emotional attachment to her at all. If he could meet her today, he would just have some fun with her. If he couldn't meet her, he wouldn't go out of his way to look for her.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki turned to Cheng Long, who was still in a state of admiration, and said, "Along, I will be there on time for the company's establishment. I will take my leave tonight."

"Then see you the day after tomorrow. I'll take you away first."

Just like that, with Cheng Long's farewell, Hanyu Hideki embraced Qiu Shuzhen and got into the Bentley and headed straight to the Regent Victoria Harbour Hotel.

Next, the wind and waves in the presidential suite of the Regent Hotel were even more violent than the undercurrent of Victoria Harbour outside the window.

When faced with a beauty that is well-known in later generations, a scumbag will generally use all his fighting power to relax.

And that night, Hideki Hanyu was actually quite busy.

In the evening, I ate, drank and chatted with Cheng Long.

At midnight, I had another harmonious moment with Qiu Shuzhen.

After dealing with Qiu Shuzhen, he changed into clothes that smelled of alcohol in the early morning and drove straight to the mansion No. 81 where Zhang Qi lived in Repulse Bay.

After all, this car drove out from No. 81, so Zhang Qi must have known that he had arrived in Hong Kong.

The bodyguard who was driving told him that Zhang Qi was at home and had no work today.

In the early hours of the morning, a drunken scumbag entered Room 81.

Although the smell of alcohol was mixed with Qiu Shuzhen's perfume, Zhang Qi, who was woken up in the middle of the night, could smell it clearly, but this was exactly the effect the scumbag wanted.

He said that it was tiring to be dragged away to social events by business partners.

He had already picked up the beauty in his hands, and said something like "rub my back for me", and then he held the beauty and went to take a bath together.

As the saying goes, enjoy life to the fullest when you are happy.

Hideki Hanyu feels that he has an incredible physique, and it would be a waste if he doesn't make good use of it and enjoy it.

After a busy night, the scumbag who had been fighting continuously took a short break and was full of energy. On the contrary, Zhang Li, who was tormented by the scumbag in the early morning, looked listless when he took the car to the set to work.

After Zhang Qi left, Hanyu Hideki did not stay in Repulse Bay for long.

Although he came to Hong Kong this time at the invitation of Jackie Chan, it was impossible for him to come just for Jackie Chan.

Taking a car, Hideki Hanyu headed straight to Fanling.

On the golf course, Hideki Hanyu met several Hong Kong billionaires, with whom he had made appointments before coming.

Among them was Liu Luanxiong, who followed Kambo Eiichi in the Japanese and Hong Kong stock markets and made profits by taking advantage of various linkages.

However, although the other party's value has skyrocketed in the past two years, it is still far from that of Hideki Hanyu. Liu Luanxiong was just a sideline guest when Hideki Hanyu came to Fanling this time.

What he really wanted to meet were several other billionaires who were involved in real estate and were ready to cooperate in retail department stores and logistics channels.

I have generally told you about some directions, but as for the specific cooperation we want to discuss, it will definitely not be achieved in a short time.

Of course, while we were talking about things, another interesting thing actually happened.

That was because as his monstrous physique gradually took off, although he did not play golf very often, his technical progress was very exaggerated. Therefore, while chatting and laughing, he easily defeated several wealthy people and won a crushing victory.

Such skills made several wealthy people shout that he is ready to enter the professional arena.

But unfortunately, Hideki Hanyu is not interested in this.

With his current wealth and the speed at which he makes money, even if all the famous athletes in the world were tied together, they would not be enough to beat him. Why should he bother earning that hard-earned money?

Therefore, this monstrous physical fitness, which includes super physique, super athletic ability, amazing recovery speed, and exaggerated technical learning efficiency, is a complete waste on him.

Well...it can't be called a waste.

At least his strong physique was fully utilized last night.
