Tokyo: Bubble, but the system is Sengoku

Moreover, regardless of whether he can save the company, given the value Sato has demonstrated so far, it wouldn't be a problem for him to become more familiar with the company.

It's the same with connections and relationships.

We're all in the same company, which creates a certain level of relationship.

Amidst the enthusiasm of the crowd, Sato politely responded to everyone and finally arrived in front of Ogawa.

"You're quite popular now."

Ogawa glanced subtly at the girls who had just been flirting with Sato not far away.

One is in finance, and the other is in planning.

Without exception, they are all fashionable urban beauties.

She seemed completely unconcerned about what kind of story might unfold between her and the boy.

Fortunately, Sato was drinking with me back then, otherwise I would definitely have been taken advantage of.

Ogawa thought to himself.

"I am still grateful for your care."

Sato laughed.

"Ah."

In response to the boy's polite words, Xiaochuan responded with a soft snort through his prominent nose.

Although I knew it was just polite talk, I still found it quite pleasing.

"It's because you performed very well. Chiba-san personally called me and said that you meet his requirements."

Ogawa emphasized the word "personally" a bit too much.

The fact that Chiba called himself, instead of having his assistant do it, speaks volumes.

The two have only just met, yet Chiba has already taken such good care of them. After a month of hard work, it seems that the young man has truly forged his own path.

Chapter 23: Making a fortune

"But he also said that you need to continue training and can't slack off."

As Ogawa spoke, his face became more serious in order to warn him.

Now that the boy's status has risen, she, as his agent, also needs to keep him in check to prevent him from getting arrogant.

After all, the previous head-patting incident was already excessive. Sato wasn't particularly noticeable before, and everyone thought that the two of them were impossible to be together, so it didn't cause any waves.

But things are different now. Sato is destined to attract more attention, so he needs to be more careful about his influence.

And Sato probably thinks the same way.

The two were definitely too intimate before, exceeding normal limits.

Therefore, as a responsible manager and older sister, she had to stop this from happening and distance herself from Sato.

Sato is quite sensible, so he should understand, right?

"of course."

Sato nodded in agreement in front of Ogawa.

Although the two had become much more familiar with each other after what had happened before, they were still nominally in charge, so they had to behave themselves in public.

Whether Xiaochuan genuinely wanted to warn him or was just putting on a show for others, he had to take it seriously.

This is the rule of this society.

He's just an actor who's recently escaped being a bit player, relying mainly on his "golden touch" (a special advantage he has), but he doesn't have the ability to challenge the rules.

Unless he has the ability to challenge the rules, status brings not only money and glory, but also more constraints.

Seeing Sato's obedient but distant demeanor, Ogawa nodded expressionlessly. Sato's actions were exactly what she was thinking.

But at that moment, the woman felt no joy whatsoever.

Before Ogawa could say anything more, a young man walked straight up to Ogawa and Sato.

"Sato, it's been a long time."

"Suzuki-san".

Sato was surprised, but he lowered his eyes and politely responded.

Suzuki, who joined the company six months earlier than him, is said to be a relative of the company president. He rarely appears in public and is one of the few artists in the company besides Sato.

"Ah."

Suzuki nodded and pointed at the table with a condescending gesture.

"You did a good job."

Upon hearing this, before Sato could react, the surrounding employees frowned.

Suzuki himself didn't have the ability to do it, yet he still acted superior, which made the people who had already considered the boy one of their own dissatisfied.

Cultivating relationships depends on the person.

People like Suzuki have already tried to climb up to him, but the problem is that they only take and don't give back. They don't give any feedback at all, and they remain arrogant, as if they were servants, only taking an inch and wanting a mile.

Sato is polite and can provide emotional support.

Between the two, most people would prefer the latter.

However, aside from killing with their gazes, they couldn't help the boy in any other way.

After all, the difference in their social status is still there, and Sato's value is not high enough for them to risk being targeted by Suzuki and completely side with Sato.

Sato, under everyone's gaze, simply responded with a respectful but not arrogant reply.

There was no rebuttal, nor was there any admission of inferiority.

Suzuki raised an eyebrow, wanting to say something more, but was interrupted by Ogawa.

"Alright, I've already told Sato-kun about it. Suzuki, aren't you filming today?"

"Yes, I just came back to take a look after filming."

What is the actual situation?

Judging from the expression on the other person's face, Sato was certain that the other person was targeting him.

It's probably because he felt his status was threatened by someone he used to look down on, so he rushed over to prove that even if that person's status had risen, he, as someone with connections, was still superior to him.

Sato had seen plenty of this in his past life, so he didn't think much of it.

If he were truly related to someone through connections, would the president have allowed him to remain a minor character here if they were really that close?

At most, we'll only be taking care of one or two people right now.

His value is gradually increasing, and it's only a matter of time before he surpasses those with connections.

If he were the president of the company, and his own company was on the verge of bankruptcy, seeing his relative still acting like a bully, he would at least be angry, if not furious.

Moreover, you can get a general idea just by looking at the expressions of the other people in this office.

Although they haven't stepped forward, and it's impossible for them to step forward, the winds of public opinion and the general trend are all on his side.

He just needs to maintain his composure so that he doesn't come across as a sycophant.

Otherwise, you'll only be further humiliated by the other party.

As for retaliation, he really didn't have any good ideas for the time being. Just maintaining this posture had already made him a thorn in the side of the other party.

However, even if the other party uses force to suppress him, his goal will not change.

As long as you keep moving forward, the pressure that Suzuki puts on you will also disappear.

It used to be very difficult to do, and people could only swallow their anger when faced with such things, but now it's different; a great path has been laid out.

Meanwhile, Suzuki, realizing he had lost face, was about to say something when Ogawa interrupted him again.

"Alright, now that we've seen it, I'll take Sato to discuss the next steps with Chiba-san."

"Yes."

Sato responded and exchanged a glance with Ogawa, both seeing the unspoken understanding in each other's eyes.

Upon hearing Chiba's name, Suzuki's eyes flashed with intense jealousy, but he still did not step forward to stop her.

......

Thank you.

"In the familiar Corolla," Sato said earnestly.

"It's alright."

"I'm just taking care of my own artists, it's not like it's free."

Ogawa ran his fingertips through his brown hair.

Being alone with her in this small, secluded room reminded her of what had happened before, making her feel a little uncomfortable.

"What about the president...?"
