Reborn in the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 381: The Ambition of the Governor of Tokyo

The gift brought by Suzuki Shunji made Masahiro Ueda feel very valued, and he said a lot of words that Tao Zhiming sounded very charming, and then said again: "This child is not polite, and he is causing trouble for Suzuki-san. Forgive me."

"Where is there." Shunji Suzuki looked at Ueda Masahiro meaningfully, and said with a smile, "It is my honor to visit Ueda's house, the well-known Kageshin Akechi heir. Tao Jun has this kind of heart." , you see me as an elder who should be with you for a long time."

Tao Zhiming bowed his body and looked at Ueda Zhengyu with a smile: [Look, people think this is better. 】

Ueda Masahiro could only keep his face unchanged, and continued to greet him first, and then said: "The tea room is more clean, Suzuki-san and Dalang can move over there."

"Ueda-kun...let's come too." Suzuki Shunji saw that he was going to give the two of them the space to talk, but said, "Afterwards, a friend is coming to ask Ueda-kun for advice on the way of swordsmanship."

"Kendo?" Ueda Masahiro was stunned, then bent slightly, "I asked my wife to prepare more dishes."

"No, he won't come until after dinner." Suzuki Shunji smiled, and followed Ueda Masahiro who was suspicious into the tea room.

The original Ueda family did not have such a dedicated tea room.

But now, because there is an extra Tao Zhiming, the things discussed are more and more involved, and some other guests come to visit from time to time. Ueda Masahiro simply separated a part of the kendo practice room and opened it into a clean room. tea room.

Anyway, now he also opened a kendo gym outside.

The tea room is very plain, not even a table.Masahiro Ueda knelt in the middle, making tea for them calmly.

And the teacups are placed on the saucers above the floor rugs.

"Tao Jun, I'm really sorry to ask you to postpone other matters first, please forgive me." Shunji Suzuki actually bent down first, specifically apologizing.

"Where is it? As Suzuki-sama said, the plan for the sub-capital is also a major issue that I am very concerned about."

Tao Zhiming secretly drummed in his heart, why is his posture so low today?

During the period when I left Tokyo, did any major events happen that I didn't know about?

But I talked with Masahiro Ueda before, and it seems that it was just the president's choice that has been rumored and is now being hotly discussed. After all, the new prime minister will be determined next month...

Tao Zhiming's heart suddenly moved. Could it be that Suzuki Shunji is ambitious and wants to fight at this advanced age?It's no use, he, isn't it that Takegami's faction has the upper hand now? Suzuki Shunji has always been a magistrate, not the cabinet minister's line.

It seems that the point is the friend he said will come over later, right?Ask for advice on kendo, those who don't know think they are here to kick the gym.

Then look at the current harmonious situation, of course it can't be like that.Then, just in the name of asking for advice on kendo, come here to get acquainted...

A name suddenly popped up in Tao Zhiming's mind, something related to the way of swordsmanship, and one with great promise in the future...

He kept his composure and continued, "Master Suzuki, the Metropolitan Government is also discussing the feasibility of this matter, right?"

"At present, it is still limited to only a few people, and we are demonstrating this matter." Shunji Suzuki stared at him with a serious expression, "To allow residents of Tokyo to truly enjoy the convenience brought by the sub-city center plan, we must rely solely on the Metropolitan Government It will definitely not work. This is something that needs to be united and recognized by everyone. Now, all parties who know about this matter are waiting to see whether the model of Mogami Gokurakucho is feasible."

He didn't say a word, Tao Zhiming understood: Sumitomo, Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Mori Building Group, Seibu Group... are also waiting to see if Tao Zhiming really has the courage and strength, first invest funds to build the yacht homeport in Odaiba, Raise land prices in surrounding areas.

In this way, everyone will benefit from it, the stock price will continue to rise, and the prospects will be optimistic, so they will really spend some money to exchange public works and Odaiba from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government through the construction of the existing three sub-centers. The right to develop other areas in the sub-city center of Linhai.

So Tao Zhiming replied with a smile: "This trip to the United States, Europe and Xiangdao is also to contact some friends and hold the first Tokyo Fashion Festival with sufficient specifications. Favorable. Now, President Kinoshita and I have already bet on this matter for our future glory. I have full confidence in this.”

Suzuki Shunji followed suit and asked, "So... what about Jun Tao's yacht home port plan? Nanpu Bay in Hokkaido was planned earlier than here. Does Jun Tao have the spare capacity to carry it out at the same time?"

"Hakodate and Muroran are just two marinas, and the investment will not be too large. And since President Tsutsumi is also very interested in that matter, we can probably discuss a cooperation plan. After all, my base camp is in Tokyo. , if the home port of yachts can be approved, of course Tokyo will be the main one.”

Tao Zhiming paused for a moment and said: "I believe Master Suzuki has also paid attention to the news of my visit. This time, I have acquired RIVA, a top yacht brand with a history of 135 years from Idari, and I have paid for another top yacht brand. The yacht brand Azimut Betty invested 10% of the shares and ordered a super yacht with a total value of 1.76 million yuan and 9 other luxury yachts. Please rest assured, Mr. Suzuki, about my determination in the yachting business.”

It was precisely because Suzuki Shunji knew the news from abroad that he couldn't wait to meet him.At this time, he laughed in admiration: "Tao Jun appeared on the cover of "Forbes", which is an excellent promotion for the image of our neon entrepreneurs. The power of the new generation is already so strong, which is very exciting. So Say, now this RIVA yacht is already a neon brand?"

Tao Zhiming smiled calmly: "If I can't make this brand glow with new vitality because of Neon in the future, then what I have done is nothing more than young people's nonsense, another proof that Neon people are now spending money like water. So, I really hope that the old brand can reflect the new design and manufacturing process because of the manufacturing base of Neon. Starting from Neon people’s love for yachts, let it become the king of the yacht industry.”

"So, Tao Jun's yacht home port plan is really imperative?" Shunji Suzuki asked the question he wanted to ask the most while holding a cup of tea, "I heard from Patriarch Sumitomo that there is hope. The total price of the land that is integrated and handed over to Tao Jun to build a yacht home port may exceed 2000 billion yen. Tao Jun, can this plan be launched within this year?"

"For the layout of the yacht industry, more than 300 billion yen has been spent this time. With the construction of the yacht, no less than 300 billion yen will be prepared within two years. If this plan is to be launched within this year..." Tao Zhiming pretended to be distressed and said, "I'm afraid that the construction of my four headquarters buildings in Tokyo will be postponed. In that case, the development space of these clubs that I am making profits will be limited."

"Indeed, 2000 billion yen is not a small sum." Of course, Shunji Suzuki believed this to be true. After all, the so-called start-up plan was not just about winning that piece of land, but also starting to invest money for renovation.

Although he is now known as the youngest billionaire in the world, according to "reliable statistics" his assets have exceeded 10 billion yuan, but 2000 billion yen is already more than 13 billion yuan.

Shunji Suzuki smiled confidently: "If it's just funds, I believe that when Tao Jun has land in hand, all major banks will be happy to lend money to Tao Jun. Moreover, if the plan of Odaiba Linhai Deputy City Center is really approved by Tokyo Passed by the Metropolitan Council, special incentive policies will also be established.”

What Tao Zhiming wanted was his words.With Tao Zhiming's current reputation and his well-managed financial data such as WanderDance and Onodera Fortune, Tao Zhiming is the best lender.

But of course this is not enough. If he can get special policies from the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, Tao Zhiming will have more surplus in special loans, subsidies and even some resource exchanges.

Mie Nofu arranged for Toshihide Fukui, who was in charge of window guidance, to meet him specially. Didn't he also promise to "find ways to reduce the burden on projects that support Tokyo's strategic planning"?

Suzuki Shunji confirmed his determination and strength for the home port of the yacht, took a sip of tea contentedly, and then couldn't help asking after just a sip: "Tao Jun, if there are difficulties in the allocation of funds, why don't you use Onodera?" The wealth comes from the home investment funds of the housewives, right?"

Tao Zhiming laughed: "Of course not. Reiko's sister is the supervisor of the trust and charity fund in Xiaoye Temple, and she is also concerned about the management of our housewife's wealth management fund. Please rest assured, Master Suzuki. During the turmoil, how did Onodera Wealth’s housewives wealth management fund operate in a standardized manner, and hasn’t it already clearly responded to doubters?”

Shunji Suzuki was completely relieved now, took another sip of tea, put down the teacup and sighed: "In this way, Jun Tao's true strength is underestimated. You don't need to give up the real estate you have already purchased to start Is this the plan?"

Tao Zhiming didn't answer this question, but just said with a smile: "I'm not the only one who is optimistic about the yachting business. For this matter, I have also been approved by some friends when I go out this time. In addition to traditional bank financing, now In the United States and Europe, there are actually more financing methods.”

He spoke vaguely, and Suzuki Shunji only thought that his going out this time included not only contacting the Tokyo Fashion Festival, the layout of the yacht business, but also going out to organize foreign funds.

Thinking of this, Shunji Suzuki said meaningfully: "There are already a lot of funds entering Tokyo. One of the purposes of the Fukutoshin's plan is to prevent Tokyo's real estate market from rising endlessly. Tao Jun, foreign funds, Are you willing to devote yourself to Tao Jun's career that takes years to see returns?"

Tao Zhiming smiled and said: "The funds in the United States and Europe already have a very mature investment portfolio strategy. What I clearly mentioned is venture capital. Even if they are in the construction period for several years and there is no return at all, they will only I can accept the result of investment failure. Speaking of which, I would like to thank "Forbes" magazine for making me famous, everyone may be investing in me, a person full of possibilities."

"Invest in Tao Jun? A very insightful statement." Suzuki Shunji was only worried that his purpose was not pure, and it was purely to speculate on land.Although he already has a history of participating in real construction projects like Mogami Gokurakucho, he is still worried that he will be coerced by foreign capital and have to take advantage of arbitrage.

Listening to him "explain" the source of the funds now, I found it very interesting to say: "I heard that a law firm in the United States was entrusted by Tao Jun to complain to "Forbes" magazine about publishing portraits without Tao Jun's consent. fault?"

"After all, it's causing me trouble. It's okay to have a name." Tao Zhiming said with a smile, "However, not publishing the portrait of President Di put me on the cusp of the storm. I didn't know about it until I arrived in Yidali. It’s true that I’ve been scrutinized by some Yidali families with a long history over there!”

Shunji Suzuki was very interested in understanding what had happened, and Tao Zhiming talked about their superficially friendly but inwardly arrogant attitude towards the new rich, and then said helplessly: "Fortunately, I graduated from a major in humanities after all. I was born in Dongda University, so I can't lose face, so I will work hard to deal with it."

He continued to joke: "Of course, although the deeds of participating in the writing of scripts and writing some songs made them feel: 'not a boring guy'. However, there may be discussions behind the scenes, 'It sounds like a person with no ideological connotation. It’s not a serious movie, but it’s really just catering to the current impetuous mentality of the Neon people for the sake of commercial returns’, or, ‘Is it a pop song? This guy probably hasn’t heard of classical music, so he’s keen on it. The dance hall industry'. When they come to Tokyo, they must go to WanderDance and see how they enjoy it!"

Suzuki Shunji laughed out loud when he heard this, and when he met Tao Zhiming again this time, both parties were more relaxed.

Masahiro Ueda has been silently "serving" by the side, and he doesn't know what Shunji Suzuki wants him to listen to.But seeing that Tao Zhiming can make the governor of Tokyo, who is old enough to be his father and belongs to his grandparents, relax and laugh, he can only feel that this is a skill.

Suzuki Shunji laughed for a while before he said with emotion: "That is the mentality that has been strong for many years. Although our neon has a long history and sufficient cultural heritage, it has not been able to be taken seriously. Let Tokyo become The most famous metropolis in the world is my dream. Jun Tao, please respond to them with facts.”

Tao Zhiming smiled and said yes, but he didn't think so in his heart.

Why don't you face up to the neon, you people don't know what to do?

You are the ones whose mentality is the easiest to drift. If you are a little richer, there will be five people and six people. Even if you know that you have a father on your head, you can still shout the slogan of world domination.

The concubine's life, the queen's heart.When the big stick came, he could only lie down willingly.

Next, Suzuki Shunji started chatting with Ueda Masahiro, a little bit admiring his persistence in kendo, and said that he hoped to have the opportunity to visit the Ueda family's dojo in Kyoto.

Masahiro Ueda was a little confused: "The dojo in Kyoto...has been handed over to Sanzenin for many years. Since my father moved to Tokyo, we rarely go back."

"Now, isn't Ueda-kun rebuilding the dojo?" Shunji Suzuki glanced at Tao Zhiming, and then said meaningfully to Ueda Masahiro, "Now that the neon economy is on the rise, the culture of kendo is worthy of a man like Ueda-kun. Carry it forward well. In Kansai, the prestige of the Ueda family is still circulating among the people.”

Tao Zhiming looked at his father-in-law a little at a loss with great interest.

The Ueda family has a deep friendship with the Qingtian family who has been staying in Kansai, so naturally it is not without origin.In fact, the Ueda family originally made their fortune in Kansai and grew in Kyoto during the Shogunate era.

It's just that later, the Ueda family moved to Tokyo, but some of the old industries of the Ueda family, except for those on Rebun Island in Hokkaido, are more in Kansai.

It is also a layer of proof that Ueda Masahiro brought in Qingtian Yongchen and asked him to use Nagumo Chiyo, who was adopted since childhood, to help Ueda Shana "close" Tao Zhiming's heart.The closer the relationship between us, the greater the room for the future.

But now Ueda Masahiro doesn't know what Shunji Suzuki meant to him, and why he suggested that he regain the Ueda family's influence in Kansai.

Seeing Masahiro Ueda subconsciously looking at Tao Zhiming, Shunji Suzuki could only feel that he is worthy of being the "brave and straight man of the Ueda family" in private rumors. It seems that he has begun to rely on this son-in-law in terms of wisdom and strategy.

Tao Zhiming nodded and replied: "Indeed. Mr. Suzuki, Gao Musang from the First Quanye Foundation invited me to participate in the Kansai Sea Pearl Project in Osaka Bay. I am afraid that it can only be postponed because of the plan for the home port of yachts in Tokyo. Of course, if My father has been doing a good job in Kansai, maybe I also developed from Kansai, and I have no relationship with many things in Tokyo."

"This is not a conflict." Shunji Suzuki understood Tao Zhiming's meaning, "Since Mr. Tao has a more flexible financing idea than others, he should be able to help the Ueda family rebuild their prestige in Kansai. Osaka Prefecture And in Kyoto Prefecture, there are many people who welcome the return of the Ueda family."

Ueda Masahiro became more and more confused the more he listened, only Tao Zhiming said unexpectedly: "Really?"

Then, he nodded in a daze, and sincerely said to Shunji Suzuki: "If there is such an opportunity, I still need to ask Mr. Suzuki to introduce such a friend."

"At the fashion festival in Tokyo, there will be friends coming to watch." Shunji Suzuki nodded with a smile, and then sighed, "Tao Jun, you are still so young, no wonder you have so many friends, whether in neon or abroad, No matter in Kanto, Kansai or Hokkaido, I hope to invest in you."

Tao Zhiming only replied modestly: "Ashamed, ashamed..."

His sophistication made Suzuki Shunji sigh, and Ueda Masahiro's face was calm, and his heart was already full of question marks.

Fortunately, Ueda Haruko came over and said that it was time to eat. He invited Suzuki Shunji to go over, and then took Tao Zhiming to walk behind him, with question marks in his eyes.

Tao Zhiming could only blink his eyes: [How about my son, your son in the future, cultivated to mess up the neon politics? 】

Masahiro Ueda understands shit.

But because Tao Zhiming guessed who the friend Shunji Suzuki said would arrive later, he heard him talk about Tokyo for a while, Kansai for a while, and Hokkaido. Prestige, psychological already counted.

He is the governor of Tokyo, why care about other places?

Unless it's the occasion of the new term, a local boss like him is already planning a bigger layout in the future.

As long as the person who will come is indeed the person I guessed!

Chapter 381, Luring the Wolf into the House

Naturally, Nagumo Chiyo didn't have to go to the table to take care of anything, and Suzuki Shunji didn't put up this spectrum at all.

Dinner was really like a family dinner, just chatting.

And Chiyo Nagumo ate a little bit alone with Haruko Ueda, mother and daughter, and then felt uneasy.

Before Tao Zhiming went abroad to visit alone, it was only at the request of Lord Qingtian.So since she came to Tokyo, Tao Zhiming only arranged her in WanderDance, learning to sing and dance with Izumi Sakai, Meiyi Asuka and others.

And Tao Zhiming has never met him alone in such a long time, let alone regards himself as his real woman like Lord Qingtian.

As if that night, it was just a play on the spot.

That's why she came to Ueda's house before, and asked Ueda-sama what he meant in fear.

It was also at that time that Miss Ueda knew of her existence, and knew that the Uedas and his wife were thinking about this matter, and for a time they acted very helplessly.

Nagumo Chiyo knew that this was a rare opportunity for her as an adopted orphan, so she tried very hard to express to Ueda Shana that she would not have any ambitions, and was just assisting her as a loyal sister to Ueda Shana.

She didn't know the meaning of Miss Ueda's expression at that time, but when she was invited here today, she saw Master Tao Dalang meeting with the Governor of Tokyo, and they were talking and laughing happily.

Mr. Dalang and Mr. Governor didn't even look cautious or frightened at all!

Nagumo Chiyo just felt extremely admired.

Then the doorbell rang outside, and Nagumo Chiyo hurried out to open the door, and then stood aside with his hands down.

"Come pick me up in an hour."

She could only see the man's feet in front of her, and she could also see a small gift box in his hand. She heard him order his followers in a thick and steady voice, and then said, "Thank you."

This time the voice was very gentle, Nagumo Chiyo lowered his head again and said: "Please come with me..."

"You... don't seem to be Ueda-san's daughter?"

"Yes……"

Nagumo Chiyo didn't know how to express it, but fortunately Mrs. Ueda arrived at the entrance, and she was startled when she saw the guests, and said calmly: "Master Hashimoto, please forgive me...Master Suzuki and Mrs. We are waiting in the tea room."

"Come to visit late at night, and I will cause you trouble."

"Where is it, it is a great honor, Master Hashimoto, this way please..."

"It's my first visit, and I don't know what Ueda-san likes, so I'm taking the liberty."

Seeing him handing the box to Mrs. Ueda, Nagumo Chiyo wondered why he didn't hand it directly to Mrs. Ueda.

But Mrs. Ueda immediately said: "Master Hashimoto is too polite, I am really terrified. First of all, I would like to thank you for your kindness on behalf of my husband."

"excuse me."

Seeing Mrs. Ueda invited him to the tea room, Nagumo Chiyo dared to raise his head to look at the back.

Then, there was a sound of greetings in the tea room, and Mrs. Ueda had already withdrawn from the room.

Hashimoto-sama, who is that?

……

In the tea room, Masahiro Ueda was also in shock. He didn't expect that the friend Shunji Suzuki mentioned was this one.

And Tao Zhiming thought it was true.

Visiting in the name of consulting kendo, and someone like Shunji Suzuki was needed to make a bridge in person. Naturally, it could only be Hashimoto Taro, who will be known as the "swordsman prime minister" in the future.

More importantly, the term of the current prime minister has expired, Takegami is competing for the position of president of Minli, and Taro Hashimoto, a member of his faction, has just confirmed that he will act as the director general.

Tao Zhiming also knew that he would be the Minister of Finance two years later, and he was completely destroyed by the financial bomb planted by Sane Yefu, who was the president of the Neon Central Bank, so he could only take the blame and resign temporarily.

The purpose of his visit tonight can be said to have been clearly revealed.
