National Tide 1980

Since he has two assistants, Director Taniguchi and Rinko Kagawa, Ning Weimin is at home in Tokyo. He no longer has the constraints of being unfamiliar with the place, and many problems can be solved easily.

Apart from anything else, just because Taniguchi has bought a house in Tokyo and owns a private residence, and he is an aboriginal who has a family and a job and has lived here for more than twenty years, it is very useful.

First of all, Ning Weimin can directly use Taniguchi's address and phone number to complete his personal login without having to trouble Supervisor Ishikawa.

So not long ago, in Kagawa Rinko's view, the resident registration problem that seemed to be urgent and was counting down all the time was immediately no longer a problem.

Once the resident registration procedures are completed, national health insurance, business follow-up procedures, and bank account opening can all be processed in sequence, and the process continues.

In addition, the matter of opening a bank account really depends on Director Taniguchi to solve it smoothly.

Because of the practical difficulties encountered in this step, even Ning Weimin could not foresee it in advance and almost went blind.

I have a pity for Japan's financial policy. It is not ordinary rigid, it is extremely rigid and extremely unreasonable.

Even if foreigners enter Japan for business activities, they need to stay in Japan for six months before they can open an account at a major bank such as Mitsui and Mitsubishi.

Therefore, if foreigners who have just arrived in Japan want to set up a business locally, it is difficult to even open a bank account. The only option is to open an account at Japan Post Bank.

But the problem came again. International transfers could not be made from Postal Bank accounts for six months.

It would be difficult for Ning Weimin to continue to receive domestic payments during this period.

Fortunately, Director Taniguchi was there, and Ning Weimin came up with an idea. He signed a shareholder agreement with him for one person's shareholding, and registered with the Legal Affairs Bureau.

Then he used his aboriginal identity to open a bank account for Ning Weimin to use temporarily as a company account, and then went to the Legal Affairs Bureau to delete his shareholder status.

Fortunately, after going through such a big circle, this matter was solved perfectly.

In addition, the usage of bank cards in Japan is so simple, which Ning Weimin also never expected.

He originally thought that the magnetic cards of Japanese banks were the same as those of domestic banks after the 1990s.

As long as you apply for one card, you can realize all basic functions.

But the reality is very basic. Although Japan has entered the era of magnetic cards so early, debit cards, stored-value cards and passbooks are actually separated.

In other words, stored-value cards can only deposit, withdraw and transfer money but cannot spend it.

Debit card On the other hand, if you want to use a debit card to make purchases, you must store the money in a stored value card or passbook.

And you must have a passbook, there is no need to apply for a magnetic card separately.

Thanks to Director Taniguchi's reminder, Ning Weimin didn't make such a stupid mistake.

Otherwise, if he really did this, at least he would have to run back and forth again.

If you add the waiting time, it will be very disgusting.

Finally, Director Taniguchi’s understanding of Tokyo’s legal and tax industry also played an important role.

At least he knows which law firms and commercial tax accounting firms are reliable, experienced and charge reasonable fees.

Ning Weimin used his experience to choose a firm with a good reputation to serve him, so that he would not fall into legal and tax difficulties, and it would also be beneficial for him to renew his visa after three years.

Otherwise, if there is no legal and tax backup that can relieve him of his worries, he will never have peace of mind no matter how much money he makes in Japan in the future.

As for Kagawa Rinko, she is not a transparent person with no sense of existence.

She is thorough, careful and responsible. For Ning Weimin, the help she provides is comprehensive.

First of all, in terms of life, the B\u0026B that Ning Weimin temporarily moved into was found by Rinko Kagawa.

A small single room of 10 square meters has a shared kitchen and laundry, but has an independent bathroom.

The location hasn't moved too far, it's in a residential neighborhood near Shinjuku, still in the city center.

And it is quiet in the bustle, and breakfast is included every day.

There are many stations around, and it is less than 400 meters away from Higashi-Shinjuku Subway Station. It is very convenient to walk to Shinjuku's bustling business district and Kabukicho Street.

The key is that the price is affordable.

Although it was summer vacation and the Bon festival had just passed, it was the peak tourism season in Japan and hotel prices were at their highest.

But considering that Ning Weimin will have to stay for at least ten days and a half, and maybe even a whole month,

So Kagawa Rinko negotiated a relatively favorable price for him and the landlady, 5,200 yen per day.

Compared with the same area and the same conditions, the hotel accommodation fee is easily 7,000 to 8,000 yen per day, which is very cheap and extremely cost-effective.

Ning Weimin could hardly believe it.

At the same time, Rinko Kagawa used the unique patience and carefulness of women to teach Ning Weimin the correct way to live alone in Tokyo.

For example, how to eat sushi and how to dispose of garbage. When do supermarkets have big sales, and how can I make it cost-effective to cook alone?

If you go out to eat at a restaurant, how do you differentiate between high and low prices?

Clothes cannot be hung on the balcony, so you have to get used to using the dryer. When bathing, you must wash your body first before soaking in the pool water. If you buy a pager, you must turn on the vibration but not the ringtone... and so on.

The details of these trivial matters in life, the issues that need attention, basically everything that can be thought of has been thought of for him.

Even how to deal with typhoons, how to deal with earthquakes, various hazard countermeasures and the location of shelters-these contents that the Japanese government should train for foreigners, she also gave Ning Weimin guidance on her behalf.

She even personally accompanied Ning Weimin to several flea markets, using her bargaining skills as a woman to help him bargain and buy bicycles, daily clothes, and some things that Ning Weimin liked.

To put it bluntly, he is just like a serious and responsible personal butler and tour guide, helping Ning Weimin avoid pitfalls and save money in life.

At the same time, Kagawa Rinko also acted as a confidential secretary and document in handling many procedures, helping Ning Weimin a lot.

Her importance is actually no less than that of Director Taniguchi.

You know, no matter where Ning Weimin goes to go through the formalities, there are many forms to fill out.

This is the most troublesome thing for foreigners.

Although Ning Weimin's spoken language is passable and he has no problem writing Chinese characters, he is not Japanese after all.

Filling out this form is as difficult as going through the Japanese Standard Test.

Thanks to Kagawa Rinko who helped him fill it out, he was able to ask him tirelessly about the key contents, check them carefully with him one by one, and communicate with the staff on his behalf.

Otherwise, relying solely on Ning Weimin's Japanese proficiency, he really doesn't know how to get through these layers of language barriers.

Even if he managed to get through, he would definitely be exhausted and leave behind painful memories that he couldn't bear to look back on.

In short, Ning Weimin was really blessed to have these two people serving him wholeheartedly.

Compared with other foreigners who came to Japan, he was able to adapt to the lifestyle in a foreign country so quickly and mastered the know-how of living in Tokyo. These two assistants who assisted him were indispensable.

Especially in this era when computers are not yet widely used for office work, he completed all the legal procedures for living and doing business in Japan in just eight or nine days, and also had local bank accounts for personal use and company transfers. It can really be said that he completed it at the speed of light. A miracle.

Not to mention, as he became more familiar with Taniguchi and Kagawa, Ning Weimin also extracted a lot of important information about Pierre Cardon Japan Co., Ltd. from them.

Not only did he know the general operating conditions of the Japanese branch, but he also knew that the hierarchy of superiority and inferiority in Japanese companies was extremely strict. He also knew about the private complaints and misery of ordinary members, and he also understood the development and management history of Japanese companies. and factional warfare at the top.

He noticed that although President Hidehiro Hasegawa, who was enjoying the Bon Festival holiday in his hometown, and Vice President Tadao Takada, who was currently staying in Tokyo, were both trusted by the master, there were serious differences between them because of their different interests. of conflicts.

It is a relationship where both are dissatisfied with the division of interests and are wary of each other and check and balance each other.

Therefore, I think carefully about the kindness shown to me by Vice President Takada and Supervisor Ishikawa before and after my visit to Tokyo.

It is not difficult for Ning Weimin to guess that the reason why these two people extended an olive branch to Huaxia Company was to strengthen their voice in management, and in this way they wanted to gain more power over the operations of Japanese companies. In order to overwhelm the president and his family.

His bolder guess was that neither he nor Huaxia Company had been involved in the power struggle of the Japanese branch to some extent, and had become pawns that Takada and Ishikawa wanted to put on the chessboard to attack the president. .

That means that I will most likely be targeted and hostile by the president and others in the future, and my cooperation negotiations with Japanese companies on behalf of Huaxia Company may not go smoothly.

But it doesn't matter, anyway, he doesn't expect that he is really popular and everyone can like him.

He doesn't mind being used and schemed against by others.

Anyway, it’s better to go early if there is no profit. In this case, benefits have already been obtained. Otherwise, how could coming to Tokyo be so smooth?

From now on, all we need to do is strive for Huaxia Company to gain enough benefits, and there is no need to think too much about other things.

What's more, God is on his side, and a thunderous disaster is being prepared for these Japanese devils.

Not to mention Japanese companies, no one in the entire country of Japan could have imagined that in a few years their entire country would decline from prosperity and encounter a hurdle that was almost impossible to overcome.

Takada and Ishikawa would never have imagined that they would lead a wolf into the house, and what kind of trouble would they cause?

If they find that the chess piece being used by them is always thinking about taking advantage of the general trend to annex their company, they will probably regret it and vomit blood, right?

After all, as the old saying goes, when the snipe and the clam compete, the fisherman wins. Whoever laughs last will laugh best.

I have plenty of time, so let’s ride on the donkey and read the songbook, and walk slowly.

Of course, then again, since he had gained so many benefits from Taniguchi and Xiangchuan, Ning Weimin, who was already good at getting along with others, naturally treated them more and more kindly.

Repaying kindness with kindness is an obvious principle.

On the other hand, from the perspective of the dark side of psychology, even if they are not expected to play a key role in the future, as long as they can maintain a good relationship, it is not bad to always understand the internal situation of Pierre Cardon Japan Co., Ltd. from their mouths.

After all, it is an efficient channel for obtaining information. Only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you be victorious in every battle.

So Ning Weimin gave full play to the traditional virtues of the Chinese nation: sweet talk, kindness, and generous hands.

On the one hand, I heard about good things, and on the other hand, I invited him to dinner every day, gave me gifts, and gave him small favors.

Think about it, in comparison, Japanese bosses generally regard their subordinates as slaves. Japanese colleagues even eat on a standard basis, and even when they have a drink after get off work, they talk about their grievances and flatter their bosses. .

Then don't Taniguchi and Xiangchuan think that Ning Weimin's character is valuable?

Especially after their recent contact, they gradually discovered that there were many differences in Ning Weimin.

For example, when they reported to the embassy, ​​Xiangchuan discovered that they were actually received by the minister-counsellor in person.

While going through various formalities, Taniguchi also noticed that Ning Weimin's personal seal was actually carved from the extremely expensive Tianhuang stone.

Although he didn't know exactly what kind of stone it was, he knew it was worth a lot from the color and smoothness.

This undoubtedly shows that this young man who loves buying second-hand goods is by no means an ordinary person like them, but a truly big shot.

They became more and more moved by Ning Weimin's approachability and never put on airs.

He is humorous and likes to chat, and is full of intimacy.

On the contrary, I never thought that his behavior of worrying about money was because he knew that his country was too poor and was deeply aware of the suffering of the people. This self-disciplined behavior was worthy of admiration, not because he could not afford to spend money.

Otherwise, there is no way to explain the exaggerated fact that he gave two people watermelons to relieve the heat, and why each person gave a whole watermelon.

You know, in Japan, watermelon is a luxury product that is famously expensive!

What's more, what Ning Weimin gave them was a black watermelon worth 8,000 yen each!

How many people in Japan are so lucky to receive such a gift and enjoy the freedom of eating watermelon?

Even their family members are too happy to believe it, and they seem to have become addicted to being rich because of this.

This Chinese guy is simply too polite and friendly.

As a result, Director Taniguchi not only improved family relations with the watermelon he took home.

He also finished his wife's work and decided to host a banquet at home to entertain Ning Weimin and Kagawa Rinko.

Whether it is as a happy ending to say goodbye to each other, or as a return of courtesy and emotional connection.

He thinks they are all necessary.

After hesitating for a long time, Kagawa Rinko finally overcame her psychological barrier and decided to help her sister.

He honestly told Ning Weimin about Ning Weimin's property purchase information that he had disclosed to his sister without permission.

While expressing her apology, she said that if possible, she hoped that Ning Weimin could also give her sister Miyoko Kagawa a chance to compete fairly.

Because although her sister has just entered the industry and has little experience, her company is a very formal real estate agency.

Moreover, the boss himself happens to have a friend who is eager to sell real estate in Ginza.

It seems to be a perfect fit for Ning Weimin to open a restaurant, and the price is very suitable.

Naturally, Ning Weimin would not blame him for this. Instead, he thought that Kagawa Rinko was so honest that it was a bit pitiful and quite sympathetic.

This Japanese girl, how can I say that she is so innocent?

How can we survive in such a dangerous society?

Should we continue to teach her to be bad?

contradiction.
