In Hong Kong, we build a global business empire

Lin Haoran sat on the chair, looking at the girl in front of him who was full of vitality and youthful beauty, and his heart was filled with emotion.

Even he himself did not expect that he had such a coincidence that he would meet Akina Nakamori, who had not yet made her debut, while just strolling on the street.

There is really nothing to say about her beauty.

It is no wonder that Akina Nakamori's beauty was widely recognized in her previous life. Only by seeing her with your own eyes can you feel more clearly her delicate, melancholy and innocent qualities, which are enough to make people love her.

Her face is like a piece of jade, with delicate features. Although her eyes are not big, her double eyelids are beautifully shaped, her eyebrows are far apart, her nose is smooth, and her lips are thick. Overall, she gives people the feeling of a fragile porcelain doll.

To enter the entertainment industry, appearance is obviously a stepping stone.

Otherwise, why are there so many beautiful women in the entertainment industry?
"Ask her if her dream is to become a big star?" Lin Haoran looked at the front desk, smiled and asked her to translate.

In his previous life, Lin Haoran had seen an interview with Akina Nakamori. In the interview, Akina Nakamori mentioned that her dream since childhood was to become a singer and enter the entertainment industry because her mother had told her that she could make a lot of money and change her family's poverty.

The reason why Akina Nakamori sang last night was to participate in a variety show again and to do it as a part-time job, which shows that she is really determined to enter the entertainment industry now, and her family conditions are still very poor.

The receptionist translated the boss's words into Japanese to Akina Nakamori truthfully.

After listening to this, Akina Nakamori nodded heavily and said in Japanese: "This is my dream. I hope to become a top singer!"

"You probably don't know who I am yet, right? If I tell you that I can train you to become a top singer in Japan, do you believe it?" Lin Haoran continued with a smile.

After the front desk lady translated, Akina Nakamori was confused for a moment.

Can this young boss in front of her train her to become a top singer in Japan?
She didn't believe it at first.

Lin Haoran looked at her expression and knew what she was thinking.

But it doesn’t matter, there’s no rush.

In fact, he just wanted to control this top queen of the Asian entertainment industry who he was familiar with in his previous life.

Men have the same hobbies: money and beautiful women.

Akina Nakamori is definitely a top-notch beauty.

Now, he has so much wealth that he can never spend it all even if he stops working for the rest of his life.

So, he can't just keep making money. That would be too boring. He has to find something interesting to do.

And now, it is an interesting thing to control this future Asian goddess.

Moreover, Akina Nakamori is not the last one.

“As for my specific identity, you will naturally understand it in the future, so let’s put this topic aside for now.

I mentioned to you last night that I hope you can become our company's long-term print advertising model. Since you are here today, you must be looking forward to this position, otherwise you would not come.

Our company is headquartered in Hong Kong. It is a very diversified enterprise that covers many industries. I even control newspapers and TV stations.

The company has just entered the Japanese market and is temporarily involved in the real estate and retail industries in Japan. These fields require a lot of publicity and advertising.

And I think your image perfectly meets my standard of a print advertising model, which is why I invited you.

As for salary, I give you two options: one is to become a contracted artist of our company, with a monthly salary of 200,000 yen, and you just need to set aside a certain amount of time every week to go to the company;
Second, as a part-time model, you can participate when there is a shooting task, and each time I will settle you according to the standard price of flat models in the market.

You can think about it carefully, or you can discuss it with your parents. The building you are standing on now completely belongs to our company, so you don’t have to worry that I will cheat you. "Lin Haoran added with a smile.

20 yen is not a lot. Converted into Hong Kong dollars, it is only Hong Kong dollars.

But for a girl from a poor family like Akina Nakamori, it is definitely a huge temptation.

Lin Haoran has been in Japan for some time, and he already knows the salary situation in Tokyo.

In terms of salary, Tokyo, as a developed city, is already quite good, but it is still a little lower than Hong Kong.

Today, the average wage in Tokyo is only around 15 yen, and male workers often earn slightly more than female workers.

For new professionals who have just graduated from school, if they go to work in a factory, their salary is only around HK$10.

Therefore, earning 20 yen a month is too tempting, especially for a girl like Akina Nakamori who has not yet graduated and comes from an average family. Lin Haoran doesn't believe that she will not take the bait.

As long as he signs this contract, Akina Nakamori will basically not be able to escape from his control in the future.

The receptionist looked surprised.

Unexpectedly, the boss actually paid so much attention to this little girl in front of him.

Her own salary is only 20 yen, but that's because she has very rich professional experience.

In contrast, from what she had just said, she already knew that the girl in front of her had not even graduated from school.

So, she showed an envious look at this moment.

Although she was very envious, she still translated her boss's words to Akina Nakamori truthfully.

When hearing the figure of 20 yen, Lin Haoran clearly saw that the shock and excitement in Nakamori Akina's eyes could not be concealed. Just as Lin Haoran saw, at this moment Nakamori Akina felt as if she was dreaming.

She never thought that just a chance encounter could bring her such a great opportunity.

Two hundred thousand yen is an astronomical figure for a girl from a poor family who has not yet made her debut.

This money can greatly improve the family's financial situation.

Her family was of average financial status, and with so many sisters, the annual tuition alone was a huge burden.

She was eliminated from two variety show audition shows in a row and failed to advance, which was really a big blow to her.

But she did not give up her dream because she felt that this program was her only chance to debut, so she planned to participate in the artist screening program again in a few months.

But now, with the figure of 20 yen, she was tempted, because it was ready-made!

In comparison, it is very difficult to stand out by participating in a variety show.

At present, she is not sure whether she will still have development potential in the future if she agrees to become a contracted artist of this young man in front of her.

Because she didn't know Lin Haoran's background.

Lin Haoran is not well-known among the Japanese people, not to mention that student girls like Akina Nakamori don't pay much attention to the news media.

"By the way, if you want to know more about me, you can look for the newspapers of February 2, such as Asahi Shimbun, Dudu Shimbun, Mainichi Shimbun, etc. There should be reports about me on them. After you read them, you will probably believe me. I see that you are still a little hesitant. Why don't you go back and discuss it with your parents? Don't make a decision in a hurry. When you have made up your mind, you can come to me anytime!" Lin Haoran continued with a smile.

On the day he came to Tokyo, these famous Japanese media followed the Foreign Minister to greet him at the airport and conducted a brief interview with him.

The next day, February 2, these news media also reported his arrival, and some newspapers also specifically introduced his background.

"Okay, I'll go back and think about it carefully!" Akina Nakamori breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that there was no need to make a decision in a hurry.

This is indeed a big deal for her, and she needs to go back and discuss it with her parents.

After Akina Nakamori left, Lin Haoran didn't think much about it.

Although 20 yen is not a huge sum of money for an ordinary family, it can definitely provide considerable help.

Lin Haoran believed that Akina Nakamori's parents would definitely not be able to resist this temptation.

Now, Akina Nakamori is not yet 18 years old. Even if he deceives and coaxes Akina Nakamori to agree, without the consent of her parents, it will be meaningless even if the contract is signed.

This is also the reason why he asked Akina Nakamori to go back and discuss it with her parents.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, Huo Jianning, Zhao Xin and Sato Xiaye all went out. This time, they were going to attend a very important auction.

There are several very good pieces of land at this auction, which Lin Haoran likes very much. Once he gets them, the value of the land alone may increase dozens of times in ten years!
So, we must get it!

However, Lin Haoran did not follow along.

Even if he went there, he would just be watching the show and would not be able to provide any help to the company.

Therefore, there is no need to participate, just wait for the results.

The auction lasted more than an hour.

When Huo Jianning and others came back, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon.

As soon as they returned to the company, they went to Lin Haoran's office to report.

Before he even said anything, Lin Haoran knew that this auction was definitely a success because their faces were all filled with smiles.

"Boss, we successfully acquired four plots of land in total, and all of them were acquired at a price slightly lower than the market price. Not many real estate developers participated, so their willingness to buy was not very strong. After several bids from us, the transaction was successfully completed. The four plots of land cost a total of 4 billion yen, which is a little less than we expected!" Huo Jianning reported quickly.

520 billion yen, converted into Hong Kong dollars, is only 13 billion Hong Kong dollars. It is worth it to acquire these four good plots of land located in the core areas of Chuo Ward, Minato Ward, and Shinjuku Ward.

Such a location and such an area are on par with places like Central and Wan Chai in Hong Kong.

If it were put up for auction in Hong Kong, it would definitely fetch more than 20 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Before attending the auction, they already knew that the market value of these plots of land was between 550 billion yen and 600 billion yen.

These will be evaluated.

Now, getting it at a price below the market price is indeed a surprise.

"Well, well done. This will lay a solid foundation for our Hutchison Whampoa Group in Japan!" Lin Haoran nodded with great satisfaction.

Today, Japan's economy has been severely affected by the oil crisis, the unemployment rate has soared, and everyone is holding on to their wallets and daring not to spend.

Therefore, the real estate industry is not as hot as that in Hong Kong, but rather stagnant.

This is also the reason why there is not much enthusiasm for land bidding.

But Lin Haoran is very clear about how crazy the growth of Tokyo's real estate will be when the economic bubble comes. (End of this chapter)
