Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 807 Another purpose
A cigarette afterwards, happy...

Hanyu Hideki came to his senses and realized that he didn't smoke.

Look out the window at this time.

The sky was already filled with stars and the moon, and the night had fallen.

Turning around to look at my side, I saw the exhausted old lady still sleeping soundly.

After all, he is old, and he started begging for mercy after less than two turns.

However, as a first-line actress in the Japanese entertainment industry, Sayuri Yoshinaga has indeed put a lot of effort into maintaining herself.

Looking at her figure and skin, there is no sign of aging at all. It feels very comfortable to hug her and caress her gently.

This made Hideki Hanyu sigh that his previous impulsive behavior after getting drunk was worth it.

Speaking of which, if he had been born a dozen years earlier, he might have been able to marry the other person.

But now all I can say is what a pity.

And since the fun was over, Hanyu Hideki was considering whether he should just leave.

Drop drop-

But at this moment, the mobile phone in the pile of clothes suddenly rang. Hanyu Hideki took it out and listened. It was Marco calling.

"Boss, the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office Special Investigation Division has news about the attack."

Hanyu Hideki asked, "What's the news?"

Marco replied, "They have already found out who was behind the attack, and they are arresting them overnight."

Hanyu Hideki asked again, "Is there a list?"

Marco said, "I haven't got it yet, but I have arranged for someone to investigate. However, it is certain that it was not done by one person, but by a group of people."

Marco's answer was not unexpected by Hanyu Hideki. After all, since he was able to attack so many people at the same time and in different places, there must be more than one person who did it.

And he could probably guess who were the ones who took action.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki instructed Marco, "Arrange someone to inform Honma that the event he promised to cooperate with has arrived. I need him to be a tainted witness and explain everything he knows to the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office's Special Investigation Department."

Marco wondered, "Will he agree?"

Hanyu Hideki chuckled, “Haha, Honma is a smart man, so he must know that after the attack, his enemy has changed from me to his former ally.

But I am his only lifeline now. If he doesn’t want to be purged by some people or be silenced afterwards, he can only agree to my request.”

"Boss, I understand. I'll do it right away."

Marco said and hung up the phone.

After Hanyu Hideki put down his mobile phone, he found that Sayuri Yoshinaga next to him had woken up just when he was making the call.

I guess she was woken up by the sound of him making a phone call.

"Oba-san, you seem to have heard something you shouldn't have heard."

Although Hanyu Hideki was smiling when he spoke, his voice made Yoshinaga Sayuri feel inexplicably cold all over.

She even couldn't help but shrink into the quilt, as if doing so could give her some sense of security.

When Hanyu Hideki saw this, a sense of evil amusement flashed through his mind.

Although the other party heard what he said just now, but without a beginning or an end, the other party probably couldn't understand anything.

The reason for his behavior was that the words like "reckoning" and "silencing" in his words made the other party instinctively feel fear.

"sorry."

Sayuri Yoshinaga's voice rang out.

Hanyu Hideki stared at the other person and said, "Don't you think it's a bit late to apologize now?"

The woman quickly explained, "I didn't mean to eavesdrop."

Hanyu Hideki deliberately sneered, "Haha, whether it was intentional or not, you heard it after all."

"But I..." The woman seemed to want to explain.

But Hanyu Hideki didn't intend to let the other party explain and interrupted directly.

"Don't explain. I don't want an explanation. I want you to pay the price."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he grabbed the other person's hair with his hands and gestured downward with his eyes.

Sayuri Yoshinaga understood instantly and curled up under the quilt the next moment.

……

Half past twelve at midnight.

After leaving the Prince Hotel, Hideki Hanyu got into the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit that was waiting at the door.

As soon as I got in the car, Marco in the driver's seat handed me a piece of paper.

Hideki Hanyu took it and saw the names and identity information of more than a dozen people written on the paper.

After reading it for a few seconds, Hideki Hanyu immediately smiled.

The people on this list are the masterminds behind the attack who were just investigated by the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office's Special Investigation Department.

Among the dozen or so people, except for two, they were from the upper-level officials.

All the remaining people were actually local dignitaries.

The identities of these people coincide with Hanyu Hideki's previous guesses.

Obviously, after the Recruit bribery case, all the top officials and dignitaries in Japan have become frightened birds.

Therefore, when Honma and others were implicated, the official leaders and dignitaries who were involved behind the scenes knew that it was useless to save the situation and did not want to be taken away for investigation, so they simply took the risk and chose to eliminate the root cause of the problem.

However, in their haste, not only did their plan fail, but it also exposed themselves faster.

Looking at the previous Recruit bribery case, it took more than a year from the time it was exposed to the end of the full investigation.

However, due to the irrational operations of these guys, the bribery case of Honma and his gang was uncovered in less than a month.

Hideki Hanyu understood that even if the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office's Special Investigation Department took away everyone on the list in his hand for investigation, there would still be some outsiders who slipped through the net.

But from his point of view alone, the fact that the case investigation has developed to this point is enough for him.

This time, so many top local dignitaries were taken away for investigation, and the chaos caused was incomparable to before.

Therefore, the opportunity he had been waiting for finally arrived.

Putting down the list, Hanyu Hideki picked up the car phone and dialed a number.

The busy tone lasted for a long time before the call was connected, and the voice of Shigemasa Nakano, president of Tohoku Energy, came from the receiver.

Nakano Shigemasa said vaguely, "Moshimoshi, this is Nakano Shigemasa."

It seems that it is too late and the other party has fallen asleep.

Hanyu Hideki didn't care about it and said directly, "Nakano-san, I'm Hanyu Hideki."

"Good evening, President."

Hearing that it was Hanyu Hideki, Nakano Shigemasa immediately perked up, "President, why are you calling me so late? Is there something urgent?" Hanyu Hideki instructed, "The time I asked you to wait for has come. Let the Kanto Project team start the action tomorrow. My people will fully cooperate with you, so you must act quickly and get everything done while there is chaos to avoid unnecessary complications."

Upon hearing this, Nakano Shigemasa's tone suddenly became excited, "Yes, President."

Hanyu Hideki said, "This matter is very important to Tohoku Energy. I have made all the preparations for you. Whether Tohoku Energy's business can gain a foothold in the Kanto region depends on your performance."

"I won't let the president down." Nakano Shigemasa promised in a serious voice.

Hanyu Hideki changed his tone again, pretending to be concerned and said, "Very good, you and your team will probably be very busy in the next period of time, and you may have to spend the New Year in Tokyo, so thank you for your hard work."

"We should work hard to contribute to the company." Nakano Shigemasa said righteously.

"Haha, rest assured, Nakano-san, the company will not let everyone's hard work go in vain, and I will not treat anyone who has made contributions unfairly. Please inform the team that will implement the plan. After the work is completed, everyone will get the due reward."

At the end of his speech, Hideki Hanyu did not forget to throw a carrot in front of Shigemasa Nakano and his team.

After saying this, Hanyu Hideki hung up the phone with Nakano Shigemasa.

While the car was moving, he began to think carefully.

Ever since the bubble of the Japanese stock market was burst, his plans around the bubble economy have either begun to come to an end or are in the process of coming to an end.

For example, as I just said to Nakano Shigemasa, he first secretly plotted against Honma and others, and took the initiative to lend money to them, using their funds to help him avoid the crisis of plummeting stock prices of several listed companies.

Then, after the stock market falls and the other party's funds are trapped, they throw out the bribery case materials that they have prepared long ago, and use their connections in America to let the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office's Special Investigation Department control them and conduct an investigation.

At this time, all the assets of Honma and others were frozen, and Hideki Hanyu could regain control of the listed company without redeeming his shares.

He could also take advantage of the bribery case that implicated local and upper-level suspects, and by relying on his status as a creditor and cooperating with local forces that he had already colluded with, he took advantage of the chaos to allow Northeast Energy to enter the Kanto market.

And when the dust settles on the Honma bribery case and the stock market hits rock bottom, even if the assets of Honma and others are unfrozen, he will be able to easily recover all his shares because of insolvency.

In addition to this matter, the acquisition of Sanrio, the parent company of Hello Kitty, which was entrusted to Eri Kitahara for planning, is now proceeding in an orderly manner.

Faced with the aggressive Pokémon Communication that wants to swallow it up in one gulp, Sanrio is naturally unwilling to surrender.

Eri Kitahara also mentioned to Hideki Hanyu that Sanrio was resisting the acquisition fiercely.

But these resistances are doomed to be futile.

Sanrio's previous ambition to enter the international market and its overly greedy and aggressive involvement in the financial industry directly led to Hideki Hanyu easily setting a trap for them.

Sanrio was doomed due to its unintentional actions and the once-in-a-century collapse of the bubble economy.

The struggle now is just to delay some time.

After all, as the Neon stock market continues to decline, Sanrio's situation will only become more difficult.

Hello Kitty, the kitten worth tens of billions of dollars in the future, is destined to fall into his hands.

At the same time, taking advantage of the ongoing bubble economy, he also planned to cooperate with Haruko Naito to acquire Neon Broadcasting, the parent company of Fuji TV.

And Hideki Hanyu wanted to establish his own general trading company, and began preparations for the acquisition investigation of the four trading companies of Kanematsu, Tomen, Nichimen, and Nissho Iwai.

At this time, the former has reached the stage where the collaborator arranged by Naito Haruko has officially begun a malicious takeover of "Neon Broadcasting", while Naito Haruko is in the contact stage of first "evil" and then "good".

As for the latter, although the four trading companies that Hideki Hanyu has his eyes on have declined to varying degrees, they are companies that have been established for hundreds of years or even decades. It is still quite difficult to swallow and integrate them all in one go.

Especially since these trading companies have been established for too long, they are more or less connected with some large Japanese companies and conglomerates. Hanyu Hideki must first sort out these connections before he can proceed to the next step.

Of course, no matter what is going on, Hanyu Hideki's greatest confidence is that he knows that after the Neon stock market bubble was punctured, although the decline has entered the fourth week, it is still just the beginning.

No one could have predicted that this decline would be different from previous short-term stock market crashes, and that it would be an unprecedented long-term decline.

All Japanese people and Japanese companies will inevitably be drawn into the long vortex and unable to extricate themselves.

So no matter what the matter is, the longer it is delayed, the better it will be for him.

As for the operation on Kamiya Eiichi's side, there is no need to explain it in detail because it is too complicated.

In short, under the control of Eiichirō Jimbo and Takeshi Honda, the profits created by the entire team are not as exaggerated as imagined, but they are long-term and generate income every day.

However, making money from this decline is just one of Hideki Hanyu's goals.

While making money, Hideki Hanyu was also instructing his team to take advantage of the market panic when the stock market fell and everyone's irrational operations to quietly purchase some high-quality assets in the stock market.

For example, Japan’s public welfare and energy enterprises have a monopoly nature.

For example, the stocks of the four major commercial companies.

For example, the stocks of Japan’s three major automobile companies, etc.

Or it could be a company that is not very prominent now but will shine in the future.

In short, the sudden collapse of the Japanese stock market is an absolute disaster for the Japanese financial market and the Japanese people.

But for Hideki Hanyu, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

It is the best time for him to lay a solid foundation for his future.

As he was thinking about these things, the Rolls-Royce had unknowingly returned to the Yorozuya Shop.

In the garage, the maid and housekeeper Machiko respectfully greeted Hanyu Hideki.

"Sir, Miss Yui has gone to bed, and the hot spring water in the bathroom on the third floor has been prepared."

"Thanks a lot."

Hanyu Hideki thanked him and went to the third floor to take a bath.

From this afternoon till now, he has had a lot of fun driving the old A8, and it is really time for him to relax.

Next, Hideki Hanyu took a shower and went to bed, no further explanation needed.

……

When the time came to the next day, he was playing tennis with his sister in the basement sports field in the morning when his assistant Chie Ishihara suddenly showed up.

"Teacher Hanyu, Mr. Akio Tanii, the president of Panasonic, called my assistant's office today to invite you to attend the reception dinner held by Panasonic tomorrow night."

Upon hearing this, Hanyu Hideki, who was playing tennis, smiled and said, "It seems that Matsushita can no longer hold on."

Ishihara Chie asked, "Are you ready to agree, Mr. Hanyu?"

Hanyu Hideki thought for a moment and replied, "Since they have personally invited me, I naturally cannot refuse to honor them."

Ishihara Chie asked again, "Teacher Hanyu, should I answer or will you answer in person?"

"I'll call you myself at noon."

Hideki Hanyu answered nonchalantly and continued swinging his racket to hit the ball.

The reason for his behavior is that at this point, he no longer cares about Panasonic's attitude.

If the other party had chosen to cooperate at the beginning, the acquisition of MCA Universal would have been completed by now.

But Panasonic chose to refuse and has been bidding with him until now, so it is impossible for him to cooperate with the other party.

It had also made all preparations to kick the other party out and take over MCA Universal alone.

Therefore, even if he goes tomorrow, it won’t be for cooperation.

But it has an ulterior purpose.
