Reborn in the Tokyo Bubble Era

Katsuna didn't walk down the stone steps from the wooden floor, but just knelt on it saying goodbye: "Master Tao, please go slowly."

Tao Zhiming looked back, and saw the snow-white back of his neck under the dim yellow light again.

I always feel weird, is it sexy there?

Sitting in the car, Chiyo Nagumo's eyes sparkled inside.

"Go back to the club building." Tao Zhiming relaxed, and then asked Nayun Chiyo, "How is the situation over there today?"

"Everything went well. Although that Sasuke Yuki quarreled for a while afterwards, everyone said she was a bit stupid..."

Tao Zhiming smiled: "What do you think?"

"Kaori-chan said that Sasuke Yuki thinks that women should be tougher, and they can live a wonderful life without relying on any man. So I also feel a little stupid."

"How stupid is this? It would be great if it could be done like this."

"Isn't that stupid? People will get sick, get old, and be lonely." Nayun Chiyo opened his eyes wide, "Even if you can make a lot of money on your own, the life of two people is definitely more important than that of one. Wonderful!"

"How can it be so simple, when two people are together, there will be more troubles."

Nagumo Chiyo smiled: "Probably because I was an orphan before, so I like to be more lively."

"I also like to be more lively." Tao Zhiming made a pun, "When you learn how to be a geisha, do you teach how to chat with others?"

Nanyun Chiyo laughed: "Of course I can teach, so I also understand a lot of truths. Master Dalang, I don't like the excitement of being a geisha and serving different customers, and... I don't like to paint my face white Yes, and show off so much of your neck!"

Tao Zhiming laughed dumbfounded: "You were taught very well."

"Because Chiyo is very smart!" Nagumo Chiyo blinked, "People like Ueda-sama can also recognize Oiro-sama, so I don't have to take the risk of waiting for someone else!"

Tao Zhiming was convinced, what kind of nonsense is this?What is a person who can be recognized by a person like Ueda-sama?

I, a scumbag, still need an endorsement from an affectionate man?

But this little girl is indeed clever, and she is expressing her opinion.

Even if you can only become one of the powerful men and women, as long as you confirm that you will not face a future where you are completely despised for various reasons, you are willing to accept this setting.This category of neon women did not surprise Tao Zhiming.

Thinking of today's Sasuke Yuki, the feeling is even more amazing.

There are always people who naively think that the world is so simple and simple, and they don't understand what it means to support all kinds of people with one rice, and they don't understand how many things and changes a person may encounter in a long period of time.

Just like this Sasuke Xuexi, it is very likely that she will eventually find someone to marry in the future, and she must change her husband's surname under the current law of Nihong.

Is the world wrong?Of course there is.

But the world cannot be wrong, so only some individuals are wrong.

Tao Zhiming is happy to see Chiyo Nagumo relaxedly showing her true character in front of him, and at the same time smartly knowing what to say and what not to say.

After resting all night, he has enough energy to taste peaches with completely different tastes today.

This girl talked a lot, and she started chatting again in the gap: "...so that Kaori-chan just wants to get to know you! Her purpose is very simple, but you don't like that, right?"

"...are you starting to solve some potential troubles for Shaner?"

"How could it be!" Nagumo Chiyo hugged his waist tenderly, "It's for me too! Anyway, I think if it's that guy, there are more troubles than excitement!"

"...Do you like this excitement?"

Nayun Chiyo hesitated for a moment: "To be honest, last time, I didn't know Elder Sister Riko, so I felt very restrained... But if it's the young lady, I will ask her in the future?"

Tao Zhiming called out my good guy, you still have this effect?

But she is very good at provoking and mobilizing the atmosphere, she seems to be a remarkable existence.

Tao Zhiming thought about it for a while, and then said seriously: "I will become familiar with everyone later! Remember, as long as it is lively, don't cause trouble."

"I understand!" She giggled, and then she winked again and started to giggle.

Tao Zhiming suddenly understood, Xia Na, the real wife, is carrying out the plan of the public grain war, right?

Good breeding, strong cattle do not plow outsiders' fields...

Chapter 388: Tao Yaren's Suspicion

The first person to arrive in Tokyo was Baron Berger from KPMG, and Xu Guoping who came with him.

This doctor who graduated from Stanford felt that the new boss's stronghold in Neon was a bit shabby than he imagined. After all, it was just a 12-story old building.

But he naturally won't underestimate it, but is more aware of the rapid development of the boss.

It was only after Tao Zhiming left the United States that he saw Tao Zhiming appear on the cover of "Forbes" magazine, and became a hotly discussed figure for a while.

In such a short period of time, he has become the world's top rich man, and he is still so young, so the topic is indeed full.

In particular, he knew better that the boss was not on the list mainly because of real estate, as the magazine said.The strength of the boss should be much stronger than the so-called "more than 10 billion yuan".

In the conference room, he was sitting upright.

In the boss's headquarters on the Neon side, why are all important financial figures women?Still very beautiful...

Tao Zhiming sat at the top, next to Maehara Kumina, and now there was one more person: Fukani Riko.

She still looks very calm, but her posture is very serious, holding a pen and ready to record at any time.

Baron Berg introduced with a smile on his face: "Mr. Tao, all the procedures for RIVA will be completed soon. Mr. Tao, you are suddenly famous now, and the acquisition of Blockbuster has created some bad news." Influence."

"Do you want to kill me?" Tao Zhiming understood what he was talking about. "Could it be that the current quotation exceeds 2000 million yuan?"

"Indeed." Baron Berger was also quite helpless, "Please believe us, according to our agreement, only if the price is lower than this price, will there be additional remuneration. But now, a buyer who was originally interested seems to believe that Mr. Tao has a combative mentality and quoted a price of 2100 million yuan."

"Do you think he will raise the price later?"

Baron Berger shook his head: "That's hard to say. According to our research on Blockbuster's current business situation, the reasonable price should be between 1600 million and 1800 million. Now he has paid 2100 million yuan , already had the intention of fighting Mr. Tao, and also encouraged some local media, saying that the neon people wanted to occupy the cultural market in the United States, which made the founder feel a certain pressure..."

"...It's just a video tape rental business. I'm not buying a Hollywood film production company. How dare I say it." Tao Zhiming shook his head with a smile, "That buyer, I remember you said it was Wayne, his strength How about it?"

"He's also a legendary rich man." Baron Berger introduced his competitors, "Wayne Huizenga started his career in a waste management company. He's not a powerful figure, but he does Blockbuster is determined to win and seems to want to broaden his business territory. According to our investigation of him, he is also seeking financing, and may offer a higher price.”

Tao Zhiming frowned.

Blockbuster was developed in the hands of this person, so the other party is not purely for the sake of being competitive.

For the video rental industry at this time, Blockbuster has three major advantages.First of all, there are innovations in the management and business model. The founder himself knows how to program. He was the first to use a software system to manage the video tapes in the store.Secondly, Blockbuster has established a video tape supply channel in the United States, and the cooperation is good.Finally, Blockbuster has initially established its brand, especially because of its awareness of data management, it can always identify which movies are more popular, so its supply is sufficient and its reputation is very good.

Tao Zhiming thought for a while and then smiled calmly: "Since Blockbuster is only worth 1800 million yuan, he wants to spend 300 million more, so let him do that. The main development area of ​​​​Blockbuster is now Texas. ?”

"That's right, there are only 19 branches now, mainly scattered in major cities in Texas."

“So will the founders exit completely?”

"Mr. Wayne's request is indeed a 100% takeover."

Tao Zhiming nodded: "Then let him buy it. We start from scratch, and it's the same. Old Xu, are you confident?"

Xu Guoping nodded affirmatively: "This will make it easier for me."

"That's fine." Tao Zhiming understands better than that Wayne when it comes to financial resources and business methods. He just doesn't need to "compete" and spend more money.

Baron Berg couldn't help being a little disappointed: "Mr. Tao, have you decided to give up?"

"Unless it doesn't exceed 2000 million yuan, I said that." Tao Zhiming looked at him and said, "Don't worry, the consulting service fee in the early stage will still be paid."

Baron Berger thought about how much that could be, but he didn't want to give up. After thinking about it, he said: "I will talk to Mr. Cook after I go back. Mr. Tao, if you are not obsessed with 100% acquisition , which should be more beneficial.”

Of course Tao Zhiming knew it, but since the founder could accept a complete exit, he probably felt that 2100 million yuan was enough. After all, the company has only been established for two years.

"I also intend to buy 100%, but I can give him another condition." Tao Zhiming thought for a while and said, "Mr. Barron, I am very busy recently, and it is difficult to leave Tokyo. You can contact him, if he feels If you are interested, you can come to Tokyo to talk to me, and say that I can talk to him about the technology company he wants to build in the future, and if the project is suitable, I am willing to invest.”

"Mr. Cook didn't mention the following plans..."

"Could it be that he's so young and ready to retire after earning a fortune? There must be a plan. Just ask him what he wants. If he doesn't want to, then we will set up a company in the United States to specialize in the video rental industry, and There's nothing wrong with the Blockbuster competition. You can also tell that Mr. Wayne about that."

"...Mr. Tao's investment scale is not small, right?"

"It's not important." Tao Zhiming wouldn't say any rhetoric directly, but since he already has the title of a billionaire, and yachts are bought for 2 million yuan, using this method to "compete" I'm afraid that Wayne was more frightened than the irrational bidding in the Blockbuster acquisition.

After all, the heroism of the Neon people in the United States is really scary now.

If Tao Zhiming invested another 1 million yuan in the United States, he would be able to open hundreds of stores in the blink of an eye, squeezing Blockbuster's development space.

Of course, the premise is that his team and resources are very good.

So what Wayne Huizenga has to consider is: Are the team and resources adequate for billionaires?

Anyone in their right mind has the answer.

Baron Berg could only hurry to contact the founder of Blockbuster and other friends.

Those who can help him win within 2000 million yuan must still be Mr. Tao's first choice.

"Old Xu, stay in Tokyo for two days, and then go to Yidali once. Did you find the engineer friend you asked for?"

Xu Guoping immediately took out a document from his bag: "I found it, this is his resume."

Tao Zhiming took it in his hand and looked at it, then asked in surprise, "You're also from Xia?"

Xu Guoping took a deep look at him, nodded and said, "That's right, he went abroad with me. He went to a civilian shipyard in the United States, and it's almost closed now."

Tao Zhiming was very convinced: "Obviously, in the field of civilian shipbuilding, Neon and Zhou Kingdom are the largest, and you are all focused on staying in the United States."

Xu Guoping couldn't refute this, but they were just out of school at that time, and they didn't have any in-depth research on the so-called international pattern and future of the industry.

Tao Zhiming simply took a look and said, "You are in charge of the person you are looking for. I just need the quality of the yacht to be good. How about Bravo Peach's office in the United States? Have you found a place?"

"I think you will need a scene in the future, so I found a high-end office building in San Francisco, and there just happened to be a floor for rent. If you want to buy, there is another office building..."

"Don't buy it!" Tao Zhiming immediately shook his head. Now the Neon people used to wave banknotes, and they all set prices on the ground.If you want to buy it, you have to wait for the neon economy to collapse. When someone else buys something like this, they have to sell it and then buy the bottom.

Now that place is just a start-up, and Tao Zhiming is spending a lot of money on Neon's side. Doesn't continuing to buy properties in the United States reveal that he has more money than others think?

Tao Zhiming asked Maehara Kumina again: "When will Yangshui arrive?"

"The plane departs from Hokkaido in the afternoon. If we arrive here, it should be after dinner."

Tao Zhiming nodded, and said to Fukaya Riko: "Then you can talk to Mr. Xu first, and then take him to our Dimension Bookstore and Wander KTV, and let him see how we operate here. Then contact Sun Jun, arrange a dinner, and ask Mr. Xu to ask him for advice. By the way, invite President Yoshida of Coolplay Digital Entertainment as well."

After finishing speaking, he told Xu Guoping: "Video tape rental will involve the management of many stores in the future. For my store, you have to learn how to use software to manage it. Sun Zhengyi is very good at software in Neon's office. For those who understand, he has studied in the United States. Now doing software distribution also involves cooperation with multiple suppliers and retailers, so you can ask him for advice.”

"I understand!" Xu Guoping looked at Riko Fukaya, "Miss Fukaya, will you be the financial director of the US office of the head office in the future?"

"Yes, you guys should cooperate well to get things done in the country of America."

Tao Zhiming stood up, and then said to Maehara Kumina: "Yangshui has made an appointment with Miss Sawaguchi, right? Jennifer Aniston, who comes from the United States tomorrow, has arranged to pick up the plane?"

"It's all arranged!"

"Miss Sawaguchi's endorsement and follow-up commercial shooting, Yang Shui is not very familiar with these matters. You transferred Makino Yui to be your assistant. She understands the media better. You can handle these matters well."

"You...don't you see them?" Kumina Maehara was a little surprised.

Tao Zhiming glanced at her with a smile: "I don't need to deal with these tasks specially."

At this time, Baron Berger also came back, and he said, "Mr. Tao, I have an appointment with Mr. Cook, and he can come to Tokyo the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, let's talk then." Tao Zhiming said to Maehara Kumina again, "Let President Origuchi arrange the reception for Mr. Barron first. Mr. Barron, take a break first, and wait for two days before Cook Sir and some of my friends from Xiangdao are here, and there will be other things I ask you to help deal with."

Baron Berger expected in his heart, is there any business in Xiangdao?

……

Tao Zhiming's schedule became more and more busy from this day on.

The Tokyo Fashion Festival is about to be held, Black Monday is approaching without the world's knowledge, and private communication and planning around the development of the Tokyo sub-city center are also being closely carried out.

Asking Yasuko Sawaguchi to speak for the upcoming Bravo Sport, as well as Jennifer Aniston's commercial shooting, is just work for Tao Zhiming, and it is a job that he does not have to appear in person.

Although the yacht and golf business under Bravo Sport has just started, the yacht has not yet been delivered, and the golf course has just settled the land and planning and has not started construction, but in the era of exaggeration, Tao Zhiming wants to build momentum first.

In this way, Tao Zhiming will be able to obtain more benefits from the real estate that Tokyo has already purchased after the announcement of the plan for the sub-city center of Odaiba, Tokyo.

In contrast, there is no need to pay attention to how Yasuko Sawaguchi and Jennifer Aniston began to establish a relationship with the industry named after Tao Zhi.

In the afternoon, I went to discuss with Kinoshita Hidekaze about the bottom line in the development plan of the Tokyo sub-center, and made an appointment with him to meet the Li family in about two days.

Seeing that he really came, Katsuna was very happy, but he also brought two other people, a man and a woman.

Today, however, is the most important person Tao Zhiming will meet at this stage, and what he wants to talk about is also what he cares most about.

Not long after, Tao Yaren arrived, also bringing two people with him, and one of them was a western face.

"Oro, this is Noyuki Mishima, he is in charge of RIVA. Leonardo Brady, a fund manager from Hanakai."

Tao Yaren spoke concisely, and Mishima was fortunate to bow to Tao Zhiming, the nominal president first: "President Tao, please take care of me in the future!"
