Reborn Tokyo Golden Age

"Is it Bai Chuanfengsang?"

"Huh?" Bai Chuanfeng who was holding the menu raised his head.

"Your Excellency?" Bai Chuanfeng always felt that the woman holding a book in front of him had been seen somewhere before.

The other party was about to speak with a smile on her face, but Bai Chuanfeng reached out to stop her.

"Wait, Your Excellency is Matsusaka Keiko-san?"

Finally, seeing that generous and intellectual face, Bai Chuanfeng remembered who the other party was.

"Unexpectedly, you still remember me?" Although she was overseas, she still bowed slightly.

Bai Chuanfeng nodded back, "It's been half a year since the last farewell.

I didn't expect to meet an old man in a foreign country, fortunately. "

The last time I met her was at Baihui Yamaguchi's wedding, and the two had chatted a few words at that time.

It's just that apart from his own women, Bai Chuanfeng barely deals with the entertainment industry.

So he hadn't remembered such an unexpected meeting abroad.

"That's right, I didn't expect to meet Bai Chuan-san here."

A casual shirt dress, long hair tied into a simple ponytail behind her, elegant and graceful.

"I don't mind, I'll sit down." Just like her temperament, her way of speaking is also generous and neat.

"Of course." Only then did Bai Chuanfeng realize that standing in front of him, she was alone.

Behind them, Kojima and Sama looked at each other silently, then lowered their heads silently and continued to deal with the steak in front of them.

"May I ask, are you alone?" Bai Chuanfeng looked at her, as if she was not accompanied by anyone.

Keiko Matsusaka smiled nonchalantly, "I just finished filming a movie and came out to get some air, so it's a vacation."

"So that's the case." Bai Chuanfeng nodded.

But don't Japanese people go to Hawaii for vacation?

Well, it's also possible that she, as an entertainer, avoided Hawaii because there were too many Japanese there.

"What about you, Bai Chuan-san? Are you also on vacation?"

With slender fingers, pinch the goblet in front of her and shake it gently. The red lips parted slightly, and the rose-colored wine quietly entered her throat.

"Me?" Bai Chuanfeng shrugged, "Of course I'm on a business trip.

I have thought about going on vacation countless times, but never made it. "

"Sure enough, the legendary president Sang is a busy man."

Keiko Matsusaka looked at him curiously, such a young president Sang is really rare.

"By the way, when will your company's next-generation Walkman be launched?"

"Eh?" Bai Chuanfeng looked up at her in surprise.

Seeing the other party's serious face, Bai Chuanfeng remembered that she seemed to be a loyal user of Bai Chuan Electric.

"Thanks to Matsusaka-san's favor, the new generation of Walkman is expected to be released in China next month.

At that time, I will definitely present one myself, and I implore Matsusaka-san to taste it. "

Each generation of new Walkmans of Shirakawa Electric is basically released around June and July.

This is the middle of the year and the beginning of summer vacation.

With such a great opportunity, it would be a pity for him to be a capitalist now if he didn't harvest some of the students' wallets.

"That's what you said, when the time comes, Qingzi will wait for Bai Chuan-san's arrival."

The intellectual Keiko Matsusaka has a dignified beauty when she smiles.

"No problem." Bai Chuanfeng, who didn't take this trivial matter to heart at all, agreed without even thinking about it.

Although he got his assurance, Keiko Matsusaka still opened the book at hand to the title page, then pushed forward, "Here".

"Huh?" Bai Chuanfeng was a little confused and didn't understand what this operation was.

"Then please Bai Chuan-san, write down what you just said here."

She, who has always been mature and intellectual, actually showed a playful smile at this moment.

"Ah?" Bai Chuanfeng was dumbfounded, how could it be like this?

The light-white fingers in front of him tapped on the blank title page again, as if reminding him to act quickly.

Well, Bai Chuanfeng couldn't help but pick up the pen caught in the gap, and wrote a line of words.

He closed the pen and put it back intact.

"Matsusaka-san, look at Hemingway too." Taking a glance, Bai Chuanfeng noticed the title of the book, so he asked curiously.

"Shirakawa-san, too?" Keiko Matsusaka noticed the word "also" keenly.

"Man can be destroyed, but not defeated." Perhaps most people have read The Old Man and the Sea.

"Bai Chuan-san also likes this sentence?" She was very interested, and seemed to want to discuss literature with Bai Chuanfeng.

Well, it turned out to be a literary young woman.

"After all, it's the president Sang, so you have to be a little resilient."

The seemingly boastful ridicule made the other party smile.

"By the way, I'll return it to you." Bai Chuanfeng pushed the closed book forward.

Unexpectedly, Keiko Matsusaka shook her head, "I'm afraid a busy president like Bai Chuan-san will forget, so I'll leave the book with you.

When Bai Chuan-san thinks about it one day, he will bring his Walkman and books with him. "

Bai Chuanfeng froze for a moment, then smiled, "Okay, I will definitely not forget."

The two raised their wine glasses and touched lightly. Ding~ The promised coat of arms is stamped here.

Oakland, one of the major cities in northern California.

It is a satellite city of San Francisco, separated from San Francisco by water.

At this moment, Bai Chuanfeng was leading people to stop and go on the green fields in the suburbs here.

"Boss, this is the place that Yuris and I have considered over and over again, and it is definitely the most suitable place for us to choose the location of Baichuan Electric."

Howard beside him was talking to the open space in front of him.

"Look, there." Howard pointed to the distant port full of ships, "That's Oakland Port, one of the three major commercial ports on the west coast.

There is no doubt that the transportation conditions of the future are definitely a great convenience. In addition, Oakland is also the train transportation center of Northern California. "

"Howard is right." At this moment, Colin, the local mayor of Oakland, stepped forward enthusiastically.

Pointing to another dense building behind him, he explained, "From there, all goods in Oakland can be sent to all parts of the United States by train.

Please believe me, Mr. Shirakawa, Auckland is definitely the wisest choice for Shirakawa Electric.

We have the best workers and the real estate is unbelievably cheap compared to San Francisco.

Convenient transportation, and" Colin gestured with his finger, "the most favorable tax rate policy. "

"Thank you for your warm introduction, Mr. Colin. Oakland will be our important inspection object, and I guarantee that it will be our best choice if the conditions are right."

Bai Chuanfeng has already visited California, and probably visited San Jose, Berkeley and other cities.

The reason why we want to build a branch factory in California is because Shirakawa Electric's branch is also here.

With the foundation laid before, you can quickly access channels at this time.

In addition, California is also an old industrial base, where there are a large number of manufacturing workers.

At least Baichuan Electric has settled here, so there is no need to worry about labor issues.

However, the specific conditions still need to be negotiated with the city government. After all, how could it be so easy to agree without giving some benefits.

Local governments in the United States have great powers, and Bai Chuanfeng knows that they have full autonomy in certain policies.

So the negotiation is handed over to a professional team, and I am only responsible for decision-making in the end.

Colin obviously also knew that Bai Chuanfeng was waiting for the city hall to give more specific preferential promises.

He has experienced too many of these things, he is not in a hurry, there is something to talk about later.

After probably reviewing the situation here in California, Bai Chuan Feng and the others also returned to Los Angeles to discuss the sales of Bai Chuan Electric's next-generation products in North America.

"Boss, I have to say that you always produce surprising works every time."

In the meeting room at the moment, Howard and Uris are playing with the latest Walkman brought by Bai Chuanfeng.

Mid-to-high-end models, as previously planned, all add the automatic rewinding function.

There is no doubt that this is still the only function on the market.

"With it, we feel more at ease in dealing with Sony."

Uris finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the uniqueness of his own products.

In the North American market in the past two months, Sony has put a lot of pressure on Shirakawa Electric.

why? Because in early May, Sony also launched its latest generation of Walkman.

The same high-end products have several different styles.

Moreover, the industrial style of the first generation has been changed in appearance, and it has become more sporty and fashionable.

Obviously, the excellent design of Shirakawa Electric also made them change their minds.

Even the name of the model has become more concise and clear, just like Shirakawa Electric.

WM-1, WM-2, WM-3

Look at the previous naming of Baichuan Electric, FM-01, FM-02

Not to mention, Sony's ability to learn is also first-class.

It was a waste of Bai Chuanfeng's trust, he thought that his old friend would continue to stick to the previous naming method of TPS-L2 and L3, and postpone it.

And from appearance to naming, these series of changes.

The market share of Sony Walkman in North America has been overtaken in one fell swoop.

That's right, before it launched a new model.

Here in North America, Shirakawa Electric has surpassed Sony in total shipments in the second half of the year by virtue of its multiple models.

However, the current No. 1 throne has been temporarily taken back by the big brother, so in the past two months, Uris has been under a lot of pressure.

"Regarding pricing, it remains roughly in the same range as the previous generation.

There can be an appropriate increase, but it must be at the same level as Sony. "

To be honest, because of a giant like Sony, Bai Chuanfeng didn't dare to set the price much higher than Sony.

After all, if you don't have that background, don't be too ambitious.

Both Howard and Uris nodded in approval, and now everyone is still grabbing the market.

If the price is too high, it is equivalent to giving up the market to the other party.

"By the way, Boss, you should know this, right?"

Uris took out a black Walkman from his briefcase and pushed it in front of Bai Chuanfeng.

"This is." He picked up the Walkman and turned around, and then saw the familiar logo on the front of the case.

"Aiwa?"

"That's right." Uris shrugged. "This Walkman also comes from your hometown, boss. It has brought some trouble to our low-end models."

"When did it go on the market?" Bai Chuanfeng frowned and fiddled with the machine in his hand.

"Just this month, it seemed to have something to do with Sony.

The expansion of some sales channels is the latter helping it advance. "

Sony currently does not have low-end models in North America, which was previously exclusive to Shirakawa Electric.

But now the opponent is here, and it is still menacing.

I didn't expect my brother to act fast enough, and the distribution of goods has already started in June.

It is almost equivalent to the fact that just after signing an agreement with Shirakawa Electric in the local area, it will be sold directly in North America, and the connection is almost seamless.

"How is the market doing?"

"Because of the low price, it has been welcomed by some groups.

Especially those of African descent, they like cheap things the most. "

Uris had a disgusted expression on his face, as if he was discussing something that made him feel uncomfortable.

"Huh?" Bai Chuanfeng frowned.
