Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era
Chapter 367: Conspiracy against Asmar
Chapter 367 Conspiracy against Asmar
A magazine's private investigation and so-called "actuarial estimates" are always just a reference.
This can only show that Tao Zhiming has the strength to join the real wealth club in this world. Of course, he is very clear that there are many people and families whose strength is far beyond himself.
Money is a tool after all. It is ultimately used to secure the fulfillment of purposes, including pleasure in life, family succession, fame in history, and the like.
And money is just one of the tools. If you only use this tool, you are a pure upstart.
Now located in the Azimut Manor on the western outskirts of Turin, in fact, many people already have this initial impression.
Because Bern Helicopter of Bell Helicopter said frankly that the reason he came here was that this Mr. BravoTao wanted to buy a private helicopter.
Suddenly rich at a young age and can't wait to start enjoying these things?
Coupled with the fact that this is a dinner organized by Azimut Yachts, the yacht is of course a luxury he wants to buy.
"Miss Erica, long time no see."
Erica, the editor-in-chief of "ELLE" magazine, turned her head and saw a well-dressed middle-aged man holding champagne. He smiled and said, "Mr. Chiao, are you here too? Long time no see."
After saying that, he looked at a tall woman beside him, and felt astonished in his heart: "Who is this beautiful lady?"
Chio Gucci introduced with a smile: "This is Miss Monica Bellucci, who is currently studying law at the University of Perugia. In her spare time, Miss Monica is also a model. Miss Erica, I am trying to convince me Miss Monica is more dedicated to her career as a model, and she's still a little undecided. You think she has the potential to be a top model, right?"
"...That's right." Erica looked at the woman and couldn't help but say, "Miss Monica has a classical appearance like a sculpture, which is very commensurate with a long-established brand like Gucci."
Monica Bellucci has fluffy curly hair and is wearing a black dress without straps, which further highlights her sculptural collarbone and curves.
In fact, Erica thinks her figure is a bit too "strong". Although she is wearing high heels now, she looks over 6 feet tall. Her real height is already tall, and her arms and shoulders appear to be stronger than ordinary women.
But it is undeniable that her appearance is indeed amazing, and she has a very special mature temperament, which is very in line with a luxury brand with a little heavy heritage.
And what is very special is that Erica always feels that her eyes are very calm, and there is a very magnanimous feeling in them.
Even if the eyes of many people in this hall are focused on her from time to time, Monica Bellucci is not at all embarrassed, but naturally produces an aura that belongs to her, which is nostalgic, but also Will not approach rashly.
Hearing Erica's words, Monica Bellucci said with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Erica, and I also hope that Mr. Chiao won't ask me to promise to sign a certain modeling agency, and I will only be in the apparel industry in the future. Shooting an ad for Gucci."
Erica looked at Chio Gucci a little embarrassedly, this Miss Monica spoke too directly.
Chio Gucci laughed: "It's because Miss Monica is so eye-catching, even if it's just from a business competition point of view, I can't help but hope to get such terms."
Erica can't help but slander, because the other heirs in the family are now fighting for power and profit, Gucci's business conditions and brand influence are declining, this romantic guy is still busy with these things.
But looking at Monica Bellucci, who exudes deadly charm all over her body, Erica has to admit that she has the ability to turn things around.
"Mr. Chio, did you come here because you were invited to the Tokyo Fashion Festival for this dinner in Azimut today?"
Chio Gucci said lightly: "For the fashion festival held by Neon, we, a world-renowned luxury brand, still need to see what they can do. I came here only because of this new neon billionaire. The millionaire, probably needs us Gucci to decorate his big toys."
"Big toy?" Erica asked curiously, thinking about where this place is, "Does Mr. Chio know something? Is Mr. Tao going to order a big yacht from Azimut?"
Chiao Gucci raised the champagne in his hand: "Probably, I'm not very clear about the specifics. But you are here too, is ELLE really going to report a fashion show purely displayed by neon women? Oriental women's figure Short, and the costume design is lackluster."
Erica just replied with a friendly smile: "This is my job."
"Understood, I wish you all the best." Chio Gucci gestured to her, and wanted to find someone else to talk to.
Monica Bellucci stayed and said to him: "I have a chat with Miss Erica, I like "ELLE" very much."
Chio Gucci smiled nonchalantly and left.
"Miss Monica, did you study law?" Erica didn't know what she was going to talk to herself.
"That's right. But what I'm most interested in is acting. It's just that now I need to use my model's income to get myself through college, and I want to study acting." She asked naturally, "Miss Erica is the "ELLE" "The editor-in-chief, if the client of the magazine needs a model, please also ask Miss Erica to help me introduce it."
Erica is a capable working woman, she sighed a little when she said this: "Miss Monica's goal is very clear."
Monica Bellucci smiled noncommittally, maybe she's talking about her coming with Chio Gucci, maybe she's talking about looking to someone she met for the first time to make money, but so what? ?
"Yes, my goal is very clear. I heard that there are many fashion media people in Europe this evening, so I came to this dinner." Monica Bellucci asked curiously, "Tokyo Fashion Grand ceremony, what is that?"
"This is the main guest of today's dinner, a fashion show organized by Mr. Tao from Neon in Tokyo." Erica introduced, and then looked at more people than expected and said, "This Mr. Tao has just become the cover of "Forbes" and is considered to be the youngest billionaire in the world. Many people today are actually here because they are curious about him."
"Youngest? How young?"
"Twenty-four." Erica gave her a meaningful look, "Unbelievable, isn't it?"
Monica Bellucci only nodded as if she had received the answer, her expression calm: "You are indeed very young."
In fact, everyone else in the room has a very hard time understanding how this age can create so much wealth.
"Neon's politicians are even hereditary up to now; Neon's consortium family actually controls Neon's main wealth. Because of the Americans, those big Neon families dare not appear too prominent. Their company The composition of the shares in the company is complex and unusual, and they are subtly connected to each other and compete with each other. This BravoTao should still represent someone behind it, right?"
"Indeed, I heard that he just graduated from college last year. How can he become a billionaire so quickly from scratch?"
"And very arrogant, it hasn't appeared yet."
"Victor, didn't you stay in Neon for two years? You can chat with him later and see how this person is trained."
“…”
At this time, Tao Zhiming had just arrived at the gate of the manor.
Azimut's president, Paul Vitali, and two vice presidents stood there, and after the three cars stopped, Tereza and Tao Zhiming got off the first car.
He walked over and said with a big smile, "Mr. Tao, welcome to Azimut."
This oriental rich man is surprisingly tall, and Paul Vitali felt like he had to stand on tiptoes when he was doing a face-to-face salute with him.
And then, Hector, Barron Berger, and Mina Maehara also got off the bus together.
"Mr. Tao, introduce me?" Paul Vitali smiled and looked at Hector and the others.
"Mr. Hector needs no introduction, right?" Tao Zhiming smiled, "Mr. Barron Berger, from KPMG."
Paul Vitali met them and said, "Welcome," with a smile, while thinking about hearing about the current situation from Tereza.
But the guests of the dinner party are almost here, and the others are not slack.
Tao Zhiming said first: "Mr. Paul, I'm very sorry for making you wait for a long time. Please help me invite some guests to meet, but I was late. I'm really sorry, let's hurry up."
"It doesn't matter, the dinner party is like a salon where friends chat. Mr. Tao paid more attention to the scenery along the road, which shows that our Idali has a charming scenery."
In the hall of the main building of the manor, people scattered in twos and threes saw a large group of people come in at the door. Walking in the front and middle is the owner of the manor, Paul Vitaly, and a young oriental face.
The room was quiet, Paul Vitali clapped his palms together, and said loudly: "Everyone, welcome to come. Let me introduce Mr. Tao Dalang from Neon, BravoTao, the youngest billionaire in the world, we are Zim's honorable guest!"
Facing a pair of curious, scrutinizing eyes, and a sincere or professional smile, Tao Zhiming first walked to the side and picked up a glass of champagne, then said with a smile, "Thank you very much for Azimut's warm hospitality, and also thank you Everyone can come here today. Just now, Mr. Paul said that the scenery of Idali is charming, and it is because of this that I wasted a little time on the road, and I am very sorry."
As he spoke, he slowly looked at everyone in the hall.
When he saw Monica Bellucci standing behind a middle-aged man, he couldn't help but froze for a moment, then immediately continued to look at the others, holding up the champagne and said, "I'm very happy to meet everyone, and I will continue to do so in the future. I will often come to Europe. I came here today for three things, discussing cooperation with Azimut, and some things I want to buy. Finally, I just got to know everyone. Sorry, Idari, falang, I have to wait for my next visit, I should I'll talk a little bit."
Although the Lord is here, it is clear that he has a special purpose.
Paul Vitali accompanied him, and the first person to go was Burn Stanley, the director of Bell Helicopter on the European side.
Teresa went to Erica and other fashion media people who were invited to come here, and brought them together first. Although Maehara Mina doesn't speak English well, now she has to bite the bullet and greet them first, waiting for Tao Zhiming to come.
At this time, Tao Zhiming has confirmed a mature model based on Bell 206 with Burn Stanley of Bell Helicopter. Because this helicopter needs to be adapted to the tarmac of the super yacht, I only met him at Idali's side.
Burn Stanley then understood why he had to come to Azimut in Idali, and couldn't help asking: "A yacht that can take off and land helicopters at sea?"
Paul Vitaly looked at Tao Zhiming, smiled and said: "In the later construction process, we also need special technical support from Bell Helicopter. The relevant communication equipment, the construction requirements of the apron, although Azimut still There is no construction experience in this area, but I believe that as long as there is technical support from Bell Helicopter, these are all very easy to solve problems."
Tao Zhiming was noncommittal: "Then, I'll go talk to the other guests first. Mr. Paul, please confirm the details with Mr. Bourne from Mr. Barron and your company."
These are all related to the final construction price. They need to have a bottom line in their hearts and wait for a while to discuss.
Tao Zhiming was again introduced by Paul Vitali, and met a guest he especially wanted to see this time, Key Holder from the Philips Semiconductor Division.
"Mr. Tao, it's nice to meet you." Key Holder was actually a little strange, what was he invited here to do. He thought it was Azimut who wanted to upgrade the electronics configuration of their yachts and talked to Philips about the future cooperation. But after he came, he realized that there was someone else who wanted to see him. And when we got here, after listening to the talk of other guests just now, I am very curious about Tao Zhiming.
"Mr. Key, hello." Tao Zhiming said calmly, "I take the liberty to invite you to meet. In fact, I have been paying attention to the semiconductor industry. Since last year, the entire semiconductor market has been very sluggish. Among them, Neon's semiconductor companies are more It was hit hard. Mr. Key, I want to do something more in this cold winter. I heard that your company has invested in a lithography machine company, and I want to compete with Nikon in this field."
"Nikon?" Key Holder thought, "They are rising rapidly, Mr. Tao and Nikon have a competitive relationship?"
"Yeah." Tao Zhiming smiled slightly, "Nikon was invested and established by the Mitsubishi Consortium, Mr. Key, as long as you get to know me more through my friends at Neon, you will know the grievances between me and the Mitsubishi Consortium. Of course. , this matter is not purely personal grudges, but mainly because I personally think that personal computers have great prospects for development. Although it may be a long time, it happens that I am also relatively young.”
Key Holder looked at him and thought you were younger?
He asked suspiciously, "What does Mr. Tao mean? How to cooperate?"
"I made preparations." Tao Zhiming smiled confidently, "I heard from people from Toshiba that your company wanted to sell the lithography machine business three years ago, and later decided to cooperate with the local Helan company. ASML Group is a joint venture. In the past three years, ASML's lithography machine has not made a substantial breakthrough. I heard that your company also wants to completely withdraw from this bottomless pit, then your company can consider it and talk to me about it ."
"...Mr. Tao, where did you hear this news?" Key Holder was shocked and couldn't help asking.
Tao Zhiming smiled and said, "All in all, I have this willingness. Of course, we need to discuss specific things in depth later. Mr. Key, in this cold winter time, there should be very few people like me who take the initiative to negotiate with your company. ?"
Key Holder also smiled back: "It turns out that I was invited because of this. Mr. Tao, thank you for your recognition of our lithography machine business. I will report your wishes to the board of directors. However, although ASML lithography machine has not made a breakthrough in the market, it is because we are fully developing the next-generation lithography machine. Some news, Mr. Tao may not be accurate. "
"I can accept either investment or acquisition."
Key Holder always felt that Tao Zhiming's smile contained inexplicable confidence, so he couldn't help but feel a bulge in his heart.
Could it really be someone on the board who is already looking for a buyer?
Tao Zhiming's confidence comes from his clear understanding of the early history of Asmar, a later star company.
Another confidence for him, because now is the best time.
Black Monday is approaching, and the semiconductor war is starting. As an equipment supplier, ASML is actually ushering in the darkest moment for the entire industry.
