Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 572: Choosing a Successor to the "Queen of Heaven"
Outside the main entrance of Shinagawa Prince Hotel.

After expressing their enthusiasm for the future, the board representatives of "Xidu Group" also said goodbye and left one after another.

In the cold night wind of Tokyo in February, after seeing everyone off, Hideki Hanyu just stood there, looking at the night view in the distance, wondering what he was thinking.

Marco took a windbreaker from the car and put it on Hideki Hanyu.

Hideki Hanyu took out a piece of chewing gum from his windbreaker pocket and put it in his mouth.

He also planned to go back to the Yorozuya Shop to rest.

But at this moment, a black Toyota Century stopped in front of the hotel.

A figure walked down, and after spotting Hanyu Hideki, he immediately greeted him, "President Hanyu, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Hanyu Hideki looked in the direction of the voice and saw the person who was speaking.

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki.

At this time, the Elf Park jointly built by Elf Communications and Seibu Group is under construction in full swing.

The two sides can be considered "close" partners.

Therefore, Hanyu Hideki immediately put on a warm expression and walked towards Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

"Ti-san, it's been a long time."

After saying hello, Hanyu Hideki noticed that another person had walked down from the Toyota Century next to Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

She is still a young and beautiful girl.

Interestingly, Hideki Hanyu also knows this girl.

Naoko Aizawa.

She is eighteen years old this year and is a very popular photo model in the Japanese entertainment industry.

She became famous for her bold style and hot body in swimsuit photos.

Hideki Hanyu never expected that this young grass would be eaten by the old bull Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

Of course, with Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's power and wealth, it would be basically easy for him to get a little model.

And given Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's style, this is not uncommon.

Anyway, starting from his father Kojiro Tsutsumi, this family has been so romantic that even Hideki Hanyu has to admit defeat.

And it is far inferior to the previous level.

After all these years, Hideki Hanyu has had only a dozen women, and only a pair of distinctive twin sisters.

On the other hand, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's father, Kojiro Tsutsumi, had four wives.

He also had four twin sisters as concubines.

In terms of the number of lovers, there are hundreds of them and dozens of illegitimate children.

After Kojiro Tsutsumi passed away, more than a hundred lovers came to the funeral hall to mourn. The scene of dozens of illegitimate children appearing together was so spectacular that it was enough to shock anyone's heart.

And the Yoshiaki Tsutsumi in front of him was just the child of one of the concubines.

I don’t know what Yoshiaki Tsutsumi felt when he saw so many brothers and sisters.

However, the fact that Yoshiaki Tsutsumi was able to break through the siege of his brothers and take charge of the Seibu Group is enough to prove that he is indeed an extraordinary person.

Of course, being strong and healthy is also an advantage.

He is in his fifties, but he can still bring an eighteen-year-old photo model back to the hotel.

I can't accept it!

"President Hanyu, since the construction of our cooperative Fairyland began, you don't seem to have paid much attention to it?"

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi asked Hanyu Hideki.

Hanyu Hideki replied, "Yunshang Communication has its own president, so I don't need to worry too much about it."

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi shook his head in disapproval.

"Those who work for us cannot be trusted at all. We can just use them as slaves. We still have to keep the power in our own hands."

"Thank you for the reminder, Ti-san. I will pay attention to it."

Hideki Hanyu did not refute Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

This kind of feudal thinking has been deeply rooted in the bones of these old antiques. It is useless to say anything to them.

After all, these dignitaries who were born in the old days of Japan still believe in the class concept of superiority and inferiority.

Of course, it's not just Yoshiaki Tsutsumi who holds this view. Almost all of Japan's upper class elites share this philosophy.

Although Hanyu Hideki disagrees, he doesn't want to appear out of place.

Anyway, just pretend on the surface and pretend that you are sociable.

In actual operation, you can do whatever you want.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi continued, "President Hanyu came to my hotel today. Is it for business?"

Hanyu Hideki replied, "Yes, I entertained a few friends, including..."

Hanyu Hideki casually mentioned several official senior officials, but Yoshiaki Tsutsumi didn't care.

After all, in Neon, such interactions are the most normal thing.

He himself often does this, and the Prime Minister is a frequent guest at his banquets.

Of course, we won't make a fuss just because Hideki Hanyu entertained a few people.

However, after Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi suddenly extended an invitation.

"That's a coincidence. I have invited a few friends tonight. If you are free, Hanyu-san, why don't you go with me to meet them?"

Hanyu Hideki did not agree immediately upon hearing this, but instead asked, "Tsutsumi-san, can you tell me who the guests are?"

In the upper level, Hideki Hanyu is not participating in the fight.

But with his current strength, it is definitely impossible for the lineup attribute to not exist.

So, there are some people he can contact.

Some people, even if there are no conflicts, are not comfortable meeting privately in front of outsiders.

Therefore, he had to ask clearly to avoid agreeing rashly and causing any misunderstandings.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi naturally knew what Hanyu Hideki meant, and he said directly, "With people like XXXX...XXXX, don't worry, I will naturally not cause any trouble or trouble to President Hanyu."

When Hideki Hanyu heard one of the names, his eyes suddenly lit up.

This person helped him.

As for what kind of help it was, Hideki Hanyu could only say that it was related to the incident in Taiwan in January.

This guy has a lot of influence over someone over there.

Although Hanyu Hideki looked down on someone over there from the bottom of his heart.

But it didn't stop him from using that person to achieve his goals.

For example, entering the radio and television market over there.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki did not hide it and told Yoshiaki Tsutsumi directly.

"Among the guests at Tisang, there is indeed someone I want to meet."

"Oh, who is it?" asked Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

Hanyu Hideki said the name, "XXXX, I hope Tsutsumi-san can introduce me to him when the time comes."

"Why does President Hanyu want to meet him?" Yoshiaki Tsutsumi did not agree immediately, but asked the reason first.

Hanyu Hideki simply said, "I have some investments in Taiwan and need a little help from this guest."

Having said this, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi did not ask any more questions.

He just said, “It’s no problem to introduce you, but I also have something I want to cooperate with President Hanyu on.”

Obviously, this is asking Hideki Hanyu to "be mutually beneficial" and "help each other".

Hanyu Hideki naturally knew the rules and asked directly, "What does Tsutsumi-san want to cooperate with?"

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi replied, "I have a plan to expand Seibu Department Store overseas recently. I hope to reach a cooperation with President Hanyu to allow your luxury brands to enter Seibu Department Store before the opening."

Upon hearing this, Hanyu Hideki made an embarrassed expression and said.

"Tisang, to be honest, Aiyi International has just completed a major acquisition and lacks the funds to set up new stores overseas."

This is, of course, an excuse to bargain.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi wanted to use his luxury brands to help Seibu Department Store attract customers to its overseas department stores and increase its visibility and customer base.

Just introducing a customer to him is not enough.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi naturally knew this, "All brands under AIYI International have moved in, and Seibu Group has promised to provide all the capital loans."

"Tisang, we are very good partners, but now Ayi International has just taken LV under its umbrella. If it's just this condition, I can't explain to the board of directors and ask them to open up business in new markets."

Hideki Hanyu is not ready to agree yet.

Relationships are relationships, and business is business.

If you can't bring yourself to discuss business for the sake of relationships, then you are doomed to have no future.

As a capitalist, "profit-seeking" is the basic ethics.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi raised the price, saying, "Seibu Group can cover 20% of the cost of the new store and waive all expenses for three months."

"Fifty percent, six months." Hideki Hanyu opened his mouth wide.

"Twenty-five percent, free for three months."

"Five years of interest-free loan, plus a minimum 35% fee, and a five-month free period, and I agree."

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi thought for a moment and replied, "Okay."

It’s not that Yoshiaki Tsutsumi wants to compromise, it’s just that AI International, led by Hideki Hanyu, is developing too fast.

After acquiring the LVMH Group, the product list is no longer limited to clothing, shoes, bags, perfumes, jewelry, cosmetics, etc.

There are also several high-end liquor brands, which are very valuable for department stores.

As long as we take over Ayi International, at least ten high-end brands will move in.

"Oh, I forgot. When I acquired LVMH Group last year, I also bought Dior."

Looking at Hanyu Hideki's expression, which I just remembered, Tsutsumi Yoshiaki was very annoyed.

He also didn't want to give Hanyu Hideki the opportunity to raise the price again.

So he took the initiative to offer the conditions, "Dior's share will be increased to 40%, and they will be given an additional three months of free period."

Who would have thought that Hanyu Hideki just waved his hand when he heard this.

"Tisang misunderstood. I really just remembered that after all, there has been a lot of investment recently. Dior's conditions can be the same as those of Aiyi International. After all, we are partners, aren't we?"

Looking at Hideki Hanyu's handsome face full of smiles.

Yoshiaki Tsutsumi didn't believe that Hideki Hanyu would really forget such a big brand as Dior.

But Hanyu Hideki, who had just been haggling over every penny, suddenly became so generous, which made Yoshiaki Tsutsumi somewhat confused and puzzled.

But even Yoshiaki Tsutsumi had to admit it.

Hanyu Hideki's final generous decision made him feel a little bit of goodwill towards him.

But now that they have already reached an agreement, the next step is for the subordinates to finalize the details of the cooperation.

Therefore, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi did not intend to dwell on it any longer and he immediately invited Hideki Hanyu.

"We have been waiting at the door for so long, it is time for us to go in."

"Ok."

Hanyu Hideki agreed and followed Yoshiaki Tsutsumi back to the Prince Hotel.

While heading to his destination in the hotel, Hanyu Hideki keenly felt that Aizawa Naoko beside Yoshiaki Tsutsumi seemed to be looking at him.

He turned his head and met Aizawa Naoko's eyes.

The scumbag immediately raised his eyebrows and showed a wicked smile.

When Naoko Aizawa saw this, she quickly looked away.

But soon, the girl couldn't help but come to see Hanyu Hideki again.

But at this time, Hideki Hanyu was no longer looking at her.

In an instant, emotions such as disappointment, regret, annoyance, and desire began to gnaw at Naoko Aizawa's heart.

Although she has already hooked up with the big boss Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

But if given a choice, who would want to follow an old man?

Tall and handsome men like Hideki Hanyu are women's favorites.

What's more, Hideki Hanyu is also rich and powerful.

She heard everything that happened between Hanyu Hideki and Tsutsumi Yoshiaki just now.

No secrets though.

But just the collaborations with those big names were enough to make this little model jealous.

Dior, Givenchy, LV, Onirique jewelry...

With so many well-known luxury brands, she doesn't expect to have any spokesperson. Even just a chance to shoot a commercial would be enough to greatly increase her popularity.

Thinking of this, the look in Naoko Aizawa's eyes when she stole a glance at Hideki Hanyu could no longer be described as scorching, it was almost like she wanted to eat someone.

It's a pity that Hanyu Hideki, who has been unable to attract Naoko Aizawa, has never liked to steal other people's girls.

What's more, she is Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's girlfriend.

Although he had already planned how to set a trap for Yoshiaki Tsutsumi in the future.

But at this stage, the two of them are still "close" partners.

Moreover, when Yoshiaki Tsutsumi brought Hideki Hanyu to the secret box for the meeting, he immediately sent Naoko Aizawa away.

What they were going to talk about next was not something a little model could listen to.

In this way, Hideki Hanyu stayed in the Prince Hotel for more than two hours.

But this is not the end yet, we went to a private club to continue the party.

The scene was naturally filled with beauties, toasting each other, and it was very lively.

If I were to give Hideki Hanyu's evaluation, I would only say that it is very unique and these people really know how to have fun.

Because all the waitresses in this private club are from various Eastern European countries.

I don’t know how the bosses here did it when Big Brother was still around.

The characteristics of Eastern European beauties are that their looks are naturally softer than those of Europeans and more three-dimensional than those of Asians. They have fair skin and tall figures. They can be described as relatively perfect.

After the party, Hideki Hanyu applied for membership with all his heart, which shows that he is very satisfied with this place.

I realize that I must criticize it when I have time in the future.

But tonight’s harvest is certainly not such a small matter.

After meeting the person he wanted to meet through Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, the two sides had an in-depth communication, in which Hideki Hanyu made some contributions and the other party also made some promises.

To sum it up, everyone gets what they need and gains something.

By the time Hanyu Hideki said goodbye to the others, it was already past one in the morning.

But even so, he still went to the residence of the Sekimoto sisters in Gotanda, Shinagawa District, drunk.

After all, I had promised the two of them before, and I can't go back on my word.

But what happened next was how the twin sisters took care of Hideki Hanyu, how they helped Hideki Hanyu wash off the smell of alcohol in the bathroom, and how they started a strange fight, which went from the bathroom to the bedroom.

How did Park Hae-mi, who was staying overnight, develop the habit of eavesdropping?
These are all boring things, so there is no need to go into details.

Anyway, after daybreak, when his assistant Chie Ishihara brought clothes to Hideki Hanyu, Hideki Hanyu, who had a rare late sleep, got up, packed his things, and went to Toranomon in Minato Ward to attend the founding ceremony of Sky Telecom.

However, on the way there, Hanyu Hideki learned another thing from Ishihara Chie.

"Ms. Akina Nakamori will be at the launch ceremony of Sky Telecom today."

"When did Akina come back?" Hanyu Hideki asked curiously.

It’s not easy to be a queen.

Hideki Hanyu returned to Tokyo and learned that Akina Nakamori had gone overseas for promotions half a month ago and had only returned now.

It is obvious that this time he came back most likely for work.

It’s so hard, we must feel sorry for them.

Even though he hadn't seen anyone yet, Hanyu Hideki was already thinking.

After today's event, I wonder how to arrange my schedule with Akina Nakamori.

As he was thinking, the car gradually arrived at its destination.

Toranomon is one of the main office and commercial districts in Minato Ward.

Not only is it home to the headquarters of a large number of multinational corporations and local giants, it is also a concentrated area of ​​Japan's high-tech companies.

Sky Telecom Co., Ltd. chose this place as its headquarters, which is very consistent with its own attributes.

After all, both mobile communications and the Internet at this stage are the most cutting-edge technological products today.

Sky Telecom Co., Ltd.'s office is located in a newly built office building, and currently only the bottom two floors are rented.

When Hideki Hanyu arrived, he saw that the entrance of the company was filled with flower baskets celebrating the opening.

Looking at the signatures on the flower baskets, most of them were from subsidiaries of Tohoku Energy, and there was also a company under Hideki Hanyu that came to congratulate.

There are also some companies that we have cooperated with before.

After all, Sky Telecom Co., Ltd. had already started business in the Tohoku region before it was established.

But no matter how many visitors there were before, when Hideki Hanyu appeared, he became the one who was the center of attention.

Sky Telecom's president, Yugo Suzuki, was the first to lead his subordinates to greet them and they all bowed.

"President, you have worked hard."

Over the years, Hideki Hanyu has become accustomed to the respectful and exaggerated way his Japanese subordinates greet him.

Seeing that Suzuki Yugo seemed to be much thinner than the last time they met, he didn't hesitate and directly ordered, "Take me to see the company's business."

"Yes, President."

After Suzuki Yugo finished speaking, he took Hanyu Hideki to the Sky Telecom business hall on the first floor.

In order to create an approachable boss image, Hanyu Hideki asked Suzuki Yugo casually during the walk, "President Suzuki, are you used to living in Tokyo? If your family members need any help, please let me know in time."

As a typical traditional Japanese employee, Hayashi Muxiong hurriedly bowed and replied after hearing what Hanyu Hideki said.

"Thank you for your concern, President. I am living well in Tokyo. The company has provided me with an apartment to live in Minato-ku. As for my wife, she will not come to live with me in Tokyo and will continue to live in Sendai."

After hearing what Suzuki Yugo said, Hanyu Hideki felt disappointed and clicked his tongue secretly.

It's such a pity that the beautiful Mrs. Suzuki didn't come to Tokyo.

Originally, he thought that if the company provided support to Suzuki Yugo's family in the future, he would find an excuse to go there in person.

Now I really have no interest at all.

and many more!

What am I thinking about?

Hideki Hanyu couldn't help but slap his head.

It seems that Mrs. Igawa Koharu had a huge influence on him, and the bloodline of this "Cao thief" awakened too quickly.

Thinking of this, he immediately changed the subject.

"Today is February 8th, and the premiere of 'My Sassy Girl' will be held soon. Will President Suzuki go to the premiere?"

Although Suzuki Yugo is a workaholic, he left his wife to Sendai City and ignored her for work.

But the premiere of the movie starring my daughter Suzuki Kyoka is in Tokyo, so I can't continue to refuse.

Who would have thought that Suzuki Yugo's next answer would make Hanyu Hideki exclaim in his heart, "You are worthy of it!"

"President, I'm going to Kobe the day after tomorrow to discuss business. Kobe University has agreed to purchase the Cisco equipment we represent to build a campus network.

Cisco also intends to build an experimental network line in Japan, but this kind of infrastructure work requires official support from Japan, and there is great resistance in Tokyo. However, the Kansai region is willing to cooperate.

So this time, in addition to discussing business, I also want to lobby the local council in the Kansai region and work together to make this happen.

I believe that as long as there is a good example, once universities in Tokyo see the effects and functions of networking, it will be easier to promote subsequent business.”

Although Hideki Hanyu complained in his heart that Suzuki Yugo was so busy that he didn't even care about his home.

But one has to admire this action-oriented style of doing things.

Sky Telecom Co., Ltd. was only established today, but its related business has already started in advance.

And according to Suzuki Yugo's plan, it seems that he is just imitating Cisco, targeting university customers and promoting the Cisco equipment he represents.

But Hideki Hanyu knew that things were not that simple.

In this day and age, there are probably few people in Japan, or even in the world, who realize the significance of what Suzuki Yugo did.

If all goes well, Yugo Suzuki will make Sky Telecom the basic Internet service provider for Japan in the future.

To put it bluntly, Sky Telecom is to become Japan's "Huaxia Telecom". In the field of traditional wired communications, Sky Telecom will definitely not be able to catch up with the previous Japanese giants.

However, the next era will be an era of technological breakthroughs.

Overtaking on a curve is by no means impossible.

Yugo Suzuki may not know what he is doing, but as long as he has this kind of drive, Hideki Hanyu doesn't mind investing in support.

After thinking about this, Hanyu Hideki patted Suzuki Yugo on the shoulder and said, "President Suzuki, you have done a great job. If you encounter any difficulties, please come to me for support in time."

After saying this, Hanyu Hideki emphasized, “Remember, I am not joking, nor am I being polite.

Because what you do is more important than you think.”

After feeling Hanyu Hideki's seriousness, Suzuki Yugo bowed deeply and said, "President, I will definitely not let you down."

"Very good. I am a person who rewards and punishes clearly. As long as you work hard, I will give you the rewards and honors you deserve."

When Hanyu Hideki said this, Suzuki Yugo had no doubts.

After all, if what he did in Northeast Energy were placed in other traditional Japanese companies, he would definitely be ruthlessly abandoned in the end, or even directly dealt with in order to please the management of Northeast Energy.

But Hideki Hanyu didn't do that.

Instead of punishing him, he was given the opportunity to learn and to serve as the president of a new company.

This is also the reason why Yugo Suzuki "abandoned his wife and daughter" and worked so hard.

Thinking of this, Suzuki Yugo bowed deeply again.

"President, I will continue to work hard."

"I still have great trust in President Suzuki."

As they were talking, the two had already arrived at Sky Telecom's business office.

It was only then that Hideki Hanyu discovered that in addition to providing network construction services, Sky Telecom also seemed to be the agent for the most popular analog cellular mobile communication system.

And several popular European mobile phone sales businesses.

Looking at the business hall in front of him, Hideki Hanyu always felt like he had really entered a telecommunications business hall.

This is truly a one-step jump from fixed-line services to mobile communications and Internet services.

Sure enough, Suzuki Yugo then reported to Hanyu Hideki.

"We plan to build our base station system in Tokyo through cooperation with Nokia and provide mobile communication services in Tokyo first.

We are already discussing cooperation, but the biggest difficulty now is that the cost of basic investment is relatively high.”

After hearing this, Hanyu Hideki didn't know what to say.

It seems that this Suzuki Yugo is not only capable of taking action, but also has great ambitions.

Of course, Hideki Hanyu knows that the current mobile communication technology is about to be eliminated, because both Europe, America, and Japan are developing their own second-generation mobile communication systems.

In the early 1990s, GSM will be born.

As for the upcoming communication system technology war between GSM and CDMA, there is no need to consider it now.

However, even though Hanyu Hideki knew this, he still spoke.

"How much money is needed? Please write a budget and report it to me as soon as possible."

He intends to support even obsolete technologies.

Losing a little money doesn't matter; what he wants is the growth of the company.

The experience accumulated and the talents trained at work cannot be replaced by any amount of money.

Now that the foundation has been laid, even if we need to make technological transformation in the future, it will only take a word from him.

In the future, Masayoshi Son will make SoftBank a dominant force in Japan's communications network services market. His current foundation is much higher than Son's, so why shouldn't he dare to give it a try?

Seeing that his idea was supported by Hanyu Hideki, Suzuki Yugo bowed again.

"President, I won't let you down."

Hanyu Hideki patted Suzuki Yugo on the shoulder and said, "Try hard, but don't be overwhelmed by pressure. Do you understand?"

"Yes, President." Suzuki Yugo said respectfully.

When the two were talking about this, there was suddenly a noisy sound coming from the door.

Then, Hanyu Hideki and others saw that the "Queen of Divas" appeared in a glamorous and beautiful Dior haute couture printed dress, chased by a group of reporters.

(Tianhou Dish·Picture)
The appearance of Akina Nakamori also means that the establishment event of Sky Telecom will officially take place.

The process of the activity itself can only be considered mediocre.

But for the media attending, there was a special surprise.

In addition to some media that focus on cutting-edge technology or come because of Northeast Energy.

The vast majority of media present at the scene were actually there for Akina Nakamori, the queen of publicity.

But what the media did not expect was that Hideki Hanyu also appeared publicly at the ceremony.

And he accepted the interview without hesitation.

“I have always believed that developing cutting-edge science and technology and using them to change our lives, making our lives more convenient, faster and more humane, is one of the important meanings of science and technology for mankind.

Since the start of Elf Entertainment, I have been committed to..."

At the founding ceremony of Sky Telecom, Hideki Hanyu was interviewed in a rare high-profile manner and said some lofty words, which strengthened his image as a young talent.

This was naturally something Hideki Hanyu did deliberately.

Of course, there is the idea of ​​using his own fame to promote Sky Telecom.

But he hopes that to some extent, he can leave the public with the image of an entrepreneur who leads the development and application of science and technology.

Hideki Hanyu must admit that in the future business world, personal charm and the influence of industry idols sometimes play a role in the development of a company that cannot be matched by any publicity.

For example, Bill Gates, who is the most popular person in America now.

Or maybe it was Steve Jobs who later returned to Apple.

And Musk, who has made open source into a meme.

Of course, we cannot forget Mr. Lei, the first entrepreneur in personal marketing in China.

Hideki Hanyu never thought about reaching someone's level.

But we have been working on this aspect imperceptibly all along.

Yunshangxi is in the entertainment industry, which seems glamorous on the surface but is really unspeakable in secret. Therefore, Hideki Hanyu is actually very low-key in Yunshangxi.

On the other hand, at Elf Entertainment, he would personally participate in many activities, such as the Tokyo Electric Show and E3 Expo in the early years, as well as last year's Carnival Awards.

His reputation as a game production master is now well-known all over the world.

His sudden appearance and willingness to be interviewed by the media as an investor of Sky Telecom also made the media very happy.

After all, everyone in the Japanese media knows that Hideki Hanyu is a guarantee of sales and ratings.

Not far away, Akina Nakamori, who was ignored by the media because of the appearance of Hideki Hanyu, did not feel unhappy at all.

On the contrary, the beauty's watery eyes were full of tenderness at this moment, and she was staring at her lover who had an extraordinary demeanor, spoke confidently, and spoke eloquently in front of the media.

Although she wanted to immediately dive into her lover's arms and express her love to him.

But under the watchful eyes of the public, such a thing is just a thought.

But just when Akina Nakamori was looking at Hideki Hanyu with affection in her eyes.

But she saw Hideki Hanyu among the reporters waving at her.

Akina Nakamori was full of surprise, and although she didn't know why, she still walked over obediently and stood next to Hideki Hanyu among the crowd of reporters.

Who would have thought that as soon as she stood still, she heard the reporter in front of her shouting.

"Ms. Akina, please get closer to Mr. Hanyu. This is not allowed when taking a photo."

"Yeah, the Sky Telecom logo in the back is blocked by Ms. Akina."

"Ms. Akina, photos taken this way won't be effective."

……

The noisy sound made Akina Nakamori realize that they wanted to take a group photo.

But although she is experienced in dealing with the media, she was a little overwhelmed at this moment.

If you want to ask why?
Because no matter how much a girl desires it in her heart, she dare not get too close to her lover.

Hideki Hanyu was like a dazzling flame, which made her, a tiny moth, yearn for it, but also worried about being burned to death.

Besides, the girl loves Hideki Hanyu so much.

She didn't want her actions to cause trouble to Hanyu Hideki.

But at this moment.

Hanyu Hideki's textured voice sounded.

"What are you arguing about? You should be satisfied with this."

When the voice sounded, Akina Nakamori felt a hand on her waist. With the power coming from the hand, she moved closer to Hideki Hanyu.

All this happened so suddenly that Akina Nakamori instinctively raised her head.

The affectionate eyes looked at Hanyu Hideki unexpectedly.

At the same time, Hanyu Hideki happened to look down at the girl.

In an instant, time seemed to stand still.

Neither of them paid any attention to the reporters who were starting to go crazy, acting like mad and pressing their shutter buttons desperately.

The girl and her lover looked at each other.

Eyes like water.

Gaze affectionately.

Intoxicated.

One glance for thousands of years.

(Affectionate gaze·Picture)
After the event, Hideki Hanyu did not attend the subsequent reception banquet.

Instead, he left with Akina Nakamori.

In the moving Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit, Hideki Hanyu is looking at documents related to Sky Telecom.

Akina Nakamori snuggled in his arms, looking relaxed and trusting, like a cat in its owner's arms.

I don’t know how long it took.

Akina Nakamori suddenly raised her head and said to Hanyu Hideki in a serious tone, "Hanyu-kun, I want to retire."

Hanyu Hideki turned his eyes away from the information and looked down at Nakamori Akina.

He didn't say anything extra, just asked.

"Have you thought clearly?"

Akina Nakamori nodded, "I've thought it through. I hope to spend more time with Hanyu-kun."

"Akina, maybe life after retirement won't be what you thought it would be."

"For Hanyu-kun, I am willing to do anything."

"OK then."

Hideki Hanyu's casual agreement surprised Akina Nakamori.

Looking at Akina Nakamori's surprised face, Hanyu Hideki reached out and scratched the girl's nose, then said with a gentle smile.

"Isn't my effort to enable the people I love to do what they want to do?"

After saying that, he pressed the intercom.

"Marco, go to Yunshang Entertainment."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, Nakamori Akina became nervous.

Because she understood why Hideki Hanyu wanted to go to Yunshang Entertainment.

She also understood what she was about to face.

She once envied Yamaguchi Momoe for being able to give up everything and retire to her family.

After entering the entertainment industry, she gradually realized that Yamaguchi Momoe's retirement might not be entirely due to love.

But Akina Nakamori knew that she was different from Momoe Yamaguchi.

She is happy because she is protected by someone in every possible way.

Even in the "dangerous" entertainment industry, she lives like in a fairy tale.

The heights she has reached in her career today have even surpassed those of her former idol, Yamaguchi Momoe.

So she also understood that she had chosen to retire now.

The pressure she has to face is far greater than that faced by Yamaguchi Momoe back then.

Thinking of this, the girl looked at Hanyu Hideki.

Hanyu Hideki, who had been paying attention to the girl, saw this and knew what the girl was thinking.

He smiled confidently.

Gently stroke the girl's hair.

"Now that you've made the decision, stop thinking about all that messy pressure, because that's what I, as a man, should bear, isn't it?"

"But..." The girl hesitated and couldn't help but worry about Hanyu Hideki.

But Hideki Hanyu interrupted the girl with a domineering speech.

"It's nothing.

I am Hideki Hanyu, not Tomokazu Miura.

So what if you retreated for me? Who dares to make me pay the price? "

Hearing her lover's words, an indescribable sense of happiness and security filled Akina Nakamori's heart.

The girl laid her head in Hanyu Hideki's arms again and whispered about her life after retirement.

“When the time comes, I’m going to get a calico cat.

I want to learn Chinese cuisine and make delicious food for Hanyu-kun in the future.

When my mom comes back from America, I might go to her bar to sing, and that would definitely surprise her fans.

I also want to study fashion design..."

Listening to the girl's words and wishes in his arms, the corners of Hanyu Hideki's mouth curled up slightly.

Even someone like him would occasionally yearn for a "peaceful" and "trivial" life.
-
"you sure?"

Yunshang Entertainment, inside the president’s office.

Hirohashi Asako stared at Nakamori Akina with a serious look.

"me……"

In the car, Akina Nakamori thought she had mustered up her courage, but when she faced Hirohashi Asako's gaze, she stuttered and was unable to speak.

Seeing this, Hideki Hanyu reached out and pulled Akina Nakamori into his arms.

Help Akina Nakamori to block the pressure from the strong woman.

He said, "Asako-san please stop scaring Akina."

Hirohashi Asako asked, "Is this also Hanyu-san's decision?"

Hanyu Hideki said, "This is my decision, so now we can skip the whether or not and directly discuss how to do it."

"Hey!"

Hirohashi Asako sighed, picked up the phone and called Iijima Michi.

"Akina Nakamori is going to retire, come up quickly."

……

A few minutes later, Iijima Michi looked at Hanyu Hideki with an embarrassed look on his face.

"Hanyu-sensei..."

"Stop!"

Hanyu Hideki raised his hand to interrupt, "Just tell me what to do."

Seeing that Hanyu Hideki was determined, Iijima Michi had no choice but to accept this cruel reality.

The fact is that they are about to lose Akina Nakamori, the mainstay of Yunshang Entertainment.

Having already accepted the ending, Hirohashi Asako went straight to the point.

She asked Iijima Michi, "Which parts of Akina's work can be handled and which parts cannot be handled."

"Akina doesn't have any film or TV drama contracts, which saves us a lot of trouble.

But she has seven advertising contracts and twelve commercial events to attend.

There are already thirty-one TV variety shows that have been agreed upon.

She also has one-season recording contracts for two shows of her own.

However, the most troublesome thing is that she has several important commercial endorsement contracts, and all of them will not be completed until November this year.

The contract with Givenchy even has two years left..."

When Iijima Michi said this, Hanyu Hideki interrupted and said, "I'll handle Givenchy."

Michi Iijima knew that Hideki Hanyu was the boss of Givenchy, so she immediately put the matter aside and continued talking about something else.

“The most important thing is that we, Warner Music and our partners have already confirmed three singles and an album, as well as a global tour.

Putting aside the penalty for breach of contract for the tour, just talking about singles and albums, if the contract is breached, Japan and overseas distributors will never agree.

Mr. Hanyu, President Hirohashi, you all know how popular Akina is right now. We can cancel things that are not confirmed, but it is too difficult to cancel things that are confirmed. "

When Iijima Michi said this, a dark cloud covered his face.

How can a superstar of Akina Nakamori's level retire just by saying so?

Yamaguchi Momoe retired happily back then, but later it was her husband Miura Tomokazu who suffered the backlash.

Today, Akina Nakamori's popularity and commercial influence throughout Asia far exceeds that of Momoe Yamaguchi back then.

At this time, Hanyu Hideki was about to speak.

Hirohashi Asako seemed to see what Hanyu Hideki wanted to say, and said first, "Hanyu-san, some things can't be solved with money."

Hanyu Hideki shook his head and said, "I don't think so."

Then he glanced at Akina Nakamori, who looked a little bewildered.

continued.

"Let's put it this way, the TV station's programs can be postponed if possible, and Akina's own program will be recorded as usual.

We will proceed with the album and tour with Warner as usual, but we will change the theme and treat it as a farewell album and retirement tour. "

Iijima Michi hesitated and said, "I'm afraid Warner won't agree to this."

“They just had to say yes and I would write the songs myself for the album.”

The first sentence can be considered "coercion", and the second sentence can be considered "inducement".

After all, Hideki Hanyu hasn't made a move for many years, so the gimmick is still very high.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Iijima Michi stopped talking.

Hanyu Hideki said at the end, "There is no problem with those commercial endorsements now. After I finish these, it will definitely be the end of the year, and I will not renew the contract by then."

After saying that, he looked at Akina Nakamori and said, "Akina's retirement date is set at the end of the year. Is that okay?"

Akina Nakamori knew that this was the best result that Hideki Hanyu could get for her.

So I nodded and replied, "Okay."

Hanyu Hideki then looked at Hirohashi Asako and Iijima Michi, "Do you have any other opinions?"

"I don't." Iijima Michi shook his head.

Things cannot be changed, so she can barely accept this.

Hirohashi Asako said, "I don't have any opinions, but since Hanyu-san has arranged Akina's retirement, why don't you give her a favor?"

Hanyu Hideki asked, "What help?"

"Help Akina choose a successor to the 'Queen'."

　I have to admit that Akina Nakamori is really a very charming idol.

　　Even when I was looking up information, I found that she was often not as good as everyone imagined.

　　But I still couldn't help but write her in a more "beautiful" way.

　　Unfortunately, due to the style of this book, I have no place to display my romantic skills. Haha!!!

　　Today's update is 10,800.
