Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 829 God of Wealth

Jurong Industrial Area, Singapore.

A highly anticipated completion ceremony attended by many media outlets is about to begin.

The banner hung at the scene read "Origin Group Singapore Jurong Industrial Center", which looked a little strange to some people who didn't know the truth.

After asking around, we found out that this was the new name of the original investor, Neon Northeast Energy, after its recent reorganization.

However, compared to the name change of the investor, the most important reason for the media's collective presence today is actually for another reason.

As for the reason.

Of course, that person is the young man on the stage who is being focused on by many media cameras.

His half-long white hair was tied behind his head, his smooth and fair face was so handsome that there was not a single flaw to be found, his figure was slender and straight, his temperament was gentle and elegant, and when he held the microphone and answered questions, he looked so graceful and dignified that the media could not take their attention away for a moment.

This person is naturally Hideki Hanyu who rushed to Singapore from Hong Kong yesterday.

It had already been hinted in advance that the President of Singapore would be present in person, so naturally he had to come to give face.

Of course, he knew that the media's attention to him could not be just because of his appearance.

His identity, the capital experience he possesses, his international fame, and even his playboy love affairs.

Attention is never formed by a single line.

It is a multifaceted complex.

Before the ceremony began, the commander-in-chief finally arrived.

Hideki Hanyu has great respect for this strong man who led Singapore to prosperity.

However, in public, their communication was superficial and full of false politeness.

There is actually not much to say about the entire ceremony. It was all done according to procedure. Even the answers to the media's questions were mostly arranged.

They are all about investment and views on Singapore's economic development.

After all, it was a formal occasion. Even if the media were curious, it was impossible to arrange for them to interview Hanyu Hideki's gossip.

And just after the ceremony, when Hanyu Hideki was seeing off the commander-in-chief, the other party suddenly asked Hanyu Hideki as he was getting into the car.

“I wonder how long Mr. Hanyu plans to stay in Singapore this time.”

Hanyu Hideki replied vaguely, "I've been busy with work lately, so I don't think I can stay for long."

"Two days later, on January 17th, there will be a New Year investment promotion conference here. I wonder if we can invite Mr. Hanyu to attend."

As the commander-in-chief spoke, he looked at Hanyu Hideki with great anticipation.

For such a strong man, this expression is probably just an act.

However, the expectation for Hideki Hanyu's participation may not be false.

After all, he knew very well that the companies controlled by Hideki Hanyu were very important to Singapore's economic development.

For example, Elf Entertainment's dominant position in the electronic game market enables it to independently control one of the world's most advanced technology and semiconductor industry chains.

Just by allocating some investment and resources to Singapore would be enough to have a significant impact on Singapore's development.

What's more, the strong man also heard that Hideki Hanyu has integrated a multi-brand automobile group in Europe and is interested in investing in production bases in Asia.

The automobile industry is one of the important pearls of the world's industry today.

If Lamborghini Automobile Group's production base can be established in Singapore, it will not only bring many jobs to Singapore, but also help Singapore improve its industrial sector and achieve technological upgrading.

Of course, in addition to the investments from Elf Entertainment and Lamborghini Automobile Group, he also hopes to negotiate more investments with Hideki Hanyu.

For example, the Asian Multimedia Media Center of Yunshang Entertainment.

For example, the overseas transit base of Damu Logistics.

……

For developing Singapore, Hideki Hanyu is the ultimate God of Wealth.

This is also the reason why he came here specifically to attend the completion ceremony today.

He can never attach too much importance to Hideki Hanyu.

Facing the expectations of the strong man in front of him, Hanyu Hideki thought for a moment and replied, "I can't be sure now, but I will give Mr. Li an answer before tomorrow."

"Then I will wait for good news from Mr. Hanyu."

After the strong man responded, he said goodbye to Hideki Hanyu and left.

As the strong man's car drove away, Hideki Hanyu's car slowly stopped beside him.

After Hanyu Hideki got into the car, he immediately asked the assistant in the passenger seat, "Look at my recent schedule and see if there is anything important the day after tomorrow."

"I'll take a look."

Upon hearing this, the young assistant quickly opened his notebook and started checking.

Seeing this, Hanyu Hideki was secretly disappointed.

If Chiba Kaoru was sitting in the passenger seat at this time, she wouldn't have to look up the notebook temporarily. She would probably be able to answer the two-day itinerary right away.

Unfortunately, Chiba Kaoru was on vacation with Kamimura Reiko at the time.

The only job Ishihara Chie has to do is to stay in the Neon Assistant Office.

There was nothing he could do if the assistant he had chosen temporarily turned out to be unsatisfactory.

After all, an excellent assistant is hard to come by and not easy to find.

Otherwise, after so many years, he wouldn't have only had three people around him: Reiko Kamimura, Chie Ishihara, and Kaoru Chiba.

Hideki Hanyu was secretly disappointed.

The co-pilot's assistant has also reviewed Hanyu Hideki's schedule for the next two days.

“Teacher Hanyu, after the completion ceremony today, I have arranged an inspection trip to the Elf Entertainment factory in the afternoon, and I have also made an appointment to have a fairy tale with Wendelin Wiedeking, CEO of Lamborghini Automobile Group, in the evening.

Tomorrow there will be inspections of two partners and a visit to the Singapore Life and Health Center.

There is no work arrangement the day after tomorrow, but the Yunshang will take off at 1pm. "

After listening to the itinerary, Hanyu Hideki thought for a moment and said, "The flight the day after tomorrow has been cancelled and postponed to the 18th. Please reply to me this afternoon and tell me that I agree to attend the investment promotion meeting the day after tomorrow."

“Yes, Mr. Hanyu.” The assistant quickly wrote it down.

In this way, after leaving Jurong Industrial Area, Hideki Hanyu hurriedly had lunch at the hotel and started his second half of the day's itinerary.

After returning to the hotel after a busy afternoon, he made up for the time difference and started a phone call with Wendelin Wiedeking, the head of Lamborghini.

After the call was connected, Wendelin Wiedeking first spoke to Hideki Hanyu.

"Sir, our negotiations with FAW are almost over, but there are still some special conditions that may require your confirmation."

The decision on Lamborghini Automobile Group's cooperation with the mainland was made personally by Hideki Hanyu.

The entire group actually has no connections in the mainland and relies entirely on the face of its international friend Hideki Hanyu.

Therefore, many conditions that are not included in the commercial negotiations can only be negotiated by Hideki Hanyu himself.

In response, Hanyu Hideki replied, "I will go to China in early February. You ask the Chinese team to get ready. I will personally lead the team to discuss the rest of the matter."

"Okay, sir."

Wendelin Wiedeking responded and talked about another matter.

"Except for China, our team has completed all the assessments of our investment and production bases in Asia before the New Year.

Now we have two choices, one is Taiwan and the other is Singapore, both have obvious advantages.

The former has a more complete industrial base, has advantages in production costs, and has a certain market, while the latter has a more advantageous investment environment and a large surrounding market. We are now hesitating about which one to choose. "

Hanyu Hideki asked, “Do you have any ideas?”

Wendelin Wiedeking replied, "There is no consensus yet."

Hanyu Hideki asked again, "I want to know your thoughts." Wendelin Wiedeking replied, "I think both places have their advantages and their own markets, so we can choose investments based on price and car models."

Hanyu Hideki said, "Wendelin, you are the CEO of Lamborghini Automobile Group. Since you have an idea, just do it according to your idea."

"Thank you for your support, sir."

Wendelin Wiedeking thanked him sincerely.

Next, this outstanding professional manager reported to Hideki Hanyu on a series of recent developments of the Lamborghini Group.

For example, what technological breakthroughs Lamborghini's design and development center has achieved recently and what new car models it has designed.

For example, the integration of several brands under its umbrella and the development of each brand.

There are also some competition results, sponsorship status, etc. of its subsidiaries.

In short, under the management of Wendelin Wiedeking, the Lamborghini Automobile Group, which was pieced together from all sides, is becoming more and more perfect and developing steadily.

This made Hideki Hanyu feel fortunate. It was the right thing for him to spend time and energy to invite back the great Wendelin Wiedeking.

The two talked on the phone for more than three hours.

Only when the sky outside the window turned completely dark did Hideki Hanyu hang up the phone.

Feeling his stomach rumbling, he was about to go to the hotel restaurant to eat something when his assistant caught up with him and reported something to him.

"Teacher Hanyu, Shogakukan just sent me the latest news. The picture book Birds of Paradise that you published last year has been nominated for this year's Hans Christian Andersen Award in the illustration category."

“Have you started nominations so early?”

Hideki Hanyu, who has always been a runner-up, has now become a little numb to this award.

Upon hearing this, the assistant explained, "The shortlist will be officially announced tomorrow, and the judging will continue until April before the winners are announced. The awards will be presented in the second half of the year."

"That sounds like a lot of trouble."

It takes more than half a year for an award to go from nomination to winning to award ceremony.

If all the publishing houses he had worked with had not reminded him that he would be compensated by the Hans Christian Andersen Award because of Brigitte's achievements and that the award was a sure thing, he would definitely not join in the fun now.

After all, he is too lazy to even publish books nowadays, so his desire for winning awards has become even weaker.

"Okay, once the nominations are announced, I'll have the assistant office draft a thank you statement for me to publish publicly."

After giving instructions to his assistant, Hanyu Hideki strode towards the restaurant.

Although it was dark outside, the hotel restaurant was still crowded with diners.

Hideki Hanyu knew that the restaurant of the hotel where he stayed was one of the famous high-end restaurants in Singapore, so he was not surprised by this scene.

What made him frustrated was that, because he arrived at the last minute, all the restaurant boxes were occupied, so he had to sit in the hall to eat.

It’s not that he disliked dining in the hall, but he was too conspicuous and would be easily recognized without any disguise.

It is very disturbing to appear in crowded places and I cannot even eat in peace.

Just after he sat down and ordered the food, someone came up to him and started chatting.

She was not some woman who came to chat up people, nor was she Singaporean. She was a man in his thirties from a certain Chen family in Malaysia.

The other party's purpose is to get to know Hideki Hanyu and hope to cooperate in business.

And once there is one, there will be two. After the man named Chen left, soon the second one, the third one... people who wanted to get to know him came up to chat.

Although most of the diners who can come here to eat are either rich or noble, they are also very polite when they come to chat. They usually introduce themselves, leave their business cards and leave.

But as the number of people increases, not everyone is like this.

Especially some women who came in for unknown reasons and had ulterior motives, looked at Hanyu Hideki with more envy than the food in the restaurant.

They keep making small movements, and some even refuse to leave after sitting down.

In this situation, even if Hideki Hanyu didn't want to put on airs in public, he was annoyed by the harassment.

He waved his hand and bodyguards immediately took the person away.

And then he stood beside Hideki Hanyu to block anyone who tried to get close.

As a result, even people who were originally trying to strike up a normal conversation couldn't get close to them, and they all glared at those ignorant women.

After all, there are not many opportunities to meet a big figure like Hanyu Hideki. It would be strange if everyone could be happy if the opportunity to meet him was ruined by others.

Looking at the people around him with different emotions, Hanyu Hideki sighed in his heart while eating.

Originally, he was only treated like this in Neon.

But now, he can't even have peace when he appears overseas.

It is not difficult to imagine that as time goes by, this situation will only become more and more serious, and one day, even if he is unwilling, his life will be completely isolated from ordinary society, just like he is now separated by bodyguards.

So this is the price of “getting”?
Thinking of this, Hideki Hanyu shook his head with amusement.

When did he become so pretentious and sentimental?

The life he has now is something that many people can only dream of. Compared to what he has, a little bit of "trouble" is nothing.

Put your head down and work hard.

The delicious food on the tip of the tongue quickly makes all those messy thoughts disappear.

……

January 17th.

Singapore officially held a New Year investment promotion conference.

Hideki Hanyu, who was invited to attend, was definitely one of the biggest highlights of this investment promotion conference.

Because at the investment promotion conference, Hideki Hanyu publicly announced several important investments in Singapore.

For example, high-end automobile production and assembly bases for multiple brands.

For example, the multimedia media center of Yunshang Entertainment.

The President of Singapore, who was present at the event, even stated on the spot that he would definitely give Hanyu Hideki the honor he deserves.

I don’t know whether it will be the Temasek Medal or the Nila Utama Medal in the end.

But Hideki Hanyu doesn't care much about these.

After all, he has received too many honors and titles of this kind over the years.

Compared with false reputation, he actually cares more about tangible benefits, such as various preferential conditions for investment.

Also, after the meeting, when the president learned that Hanyu Hideki stayed in a hotel every time he came to Singapore, he asked Hanyu Hideki whether he considered buying a property in Singapore.

Hideki Hanyu said that as the proportion of investment in Singapore increases, he will definitely spend more and more time in Singapore in the future. He has always been considering buying a property, but he has not been able to find a good target.

After these words were spoken, before going to bed at night, Hanyu Hideki received several real estate information in the hotel.

There are titles to houses in Holland Village, old mansions on the East Coast, and land in the mountains of Bukit Timah.

Hideki Hanyu took a casual look and finally chose the largest piece of land in Bukit Timah Hill. He planned to hire someone to design it and build a house himself.

I remember that this place was a gathering place for Singapore's dignitaries, politicians and business celebrities in later generations. It is located at a high point mid-mountain with a good natural environment, so it should be a good place to live.

In this way, Hideki Hanyu acquired another luxury property in Singapore without any preparation, which he probably only lived in for a few days a year.

The time came to January 18th.

With the farewell of many celebrities and politicians in Singapore, Hideki Hanyu entered the airport and boarded the Yunshang train to America.

Both are PS2 consoles that have entered final testing.

Or the MCA Global acquisition, whose negotiations have stalled.

There are still too many important things waiting for him to deal with in North America.
