Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 1020 The Truth
October 26th.

Hideki Hanyu originally intended to leave Repulse Bay early in the morning, but it was already noon when he left.

The reason, of course, was that when he was saying goodbye to Zhang Min, he was persuaded to stay by the beauty. After all, over the past few days, this woman now understood very well what he liked.

When she tried to persuade him to stay, she called him "My Lord," and with her half-covered, half-revealing ancient-style gauze costume, the scumbag man indeed couldn't resist on the spot.

However, this attempt to persuade him to stay only lasted half a day. After lunch, Hideki Hanyu still left.

Firstly, Zhang Min was alone, and ultimately his strength was limited; no matter how hard he tried, he could not satisfy Hideki Yuzuru.

Secondly, Zhou Wenqiong and her group's short trip to Hong Kong was coming to an end, and they would be leaving officially tomorrow. Naturally, Hideki Yuzuru would spend some final moments with them.

However, Hideki Hanyu wasn't in a hurry to go back. Instead, he went to the Hehe Center to handle some work-related matters beforehand.

For example, news from America.

The first issue concerns the changes in the senior management of the brand Supreme.

The dismissal of Yoshiyuki Ishizuka after the previous IPO plan failed was just the beginning. Under the direction of Hideki Hanyu, Supreme's top management began a purge.

Several mid- to senior-level managers were dismissed or even taken away for investigation.

In order to ensure that Supreme's normal operations would not be affected, the board of directors also began a "filling-in plan" for the management team while the purge was underway.

The top-performing management team of Supreme's best-performing sub-brand, Supreme & Sport (S&S), was directly promoted to the parent company, Supreme, to fill the gaps in the cleaned-up Supreme and maintain the company's normal operations.

The new CEO of Supreme has been confirmed to be Milo Guilliman, the head of the S&S brand.

Although Supreme has not yet held a formal appointment ceremony for Milo Guilliman, he has in fact begun to gradually take over the overall management of Supreme after the chaos.

Hideki Hanyu also plans to congratulate the recipient during the formal appointment ceremony.

After all, Milo Guilliman's rise to power is of great historical significance for Supreme.

Yoshiyuki Ishizuka, one of the founders who helped Supreme grow to its current state, has left, and the company is now entirely managed by professional managers.

This proves that the Supreme brand has completed its initial development stage and is beginning to enter the future with more scientific and standardized management methods.

Milo Guilliman, who lacks a strong foundation at Supreme, could never possibly wield the same power as Yoshiyuki Ishizuka, and would inevitably be more obedient to Hideki Hanyu's strategic plans.

This upheaval at Supreme has also caused a great stir in the business world of Europe and America.

Although the outside world is unclear about what exactly happened, it does not stop them from speculating on various conspiracy theories.

However, after looking around, Mr. Yuzuru found that almost everyone was talking nonsense and none of them were on the point.

Besides focusing on Supreme itself, these media outlets also like to discuss the fate of Yoshiyuki Ishizuka, one of the founders of Supreme, after his downfall and expulsion from the company.

Yoshiyuki Ishizuka is embroiled in multiple accusations and is also facing a divorce lawsuit from his wife on the grounds of infidelity. The scandals and gossip surrounding this wealthy man are certainly worthy of heated discussion in the media.

According to the latest information known to Hideki Hanyu, Yoshiyuki Ishizuka will definitely be granted a divorce, while other charges can be avoided through some means.

After all, Yoshiyuki Ishizuka had managed Supreme for so many years and had accumulated a lot of wealth and connections in America.

However, even if they manage to escape by sheer luck, they are destined not to remain in America.

So who knows, Hideki Hanyu might meet Yoshiyuki Ishizuka in Japan sometime.

In addition to news about Supreme, there's also some recent news about his private foundation investing in Universal Pictures' anthology films.

Although Hideki Hanyu, who was eager to invest and spend money, did not devour the entire platter at once, he still managed to fill most of the gaps in the platter.

However, he only glanced at the investment in the film.

In addition, there are the latest financial statements from Hope Angel Investment.

From this, he can see the development of companies such as Cisco, Starbucks, and Kinko's.

There were also some startups and projects that Dante Kane was responsible for approving investments in without his guidance, and he basically didn't recognize their names.

The reason he doesn't recognize them is simple: these startups and projects may have all been eliminated in the great sifting of history, never surviving to the point where he could understand them.

Or perhaps, he had no idea about these companies and projects in his previous life.

After all, there are so many American companies. In his previous life, as a Chinese person, he didn't understand the entire entrepreneurial process, and he only knew the names of some of the top companies.

Regardless of the reason, Hideki Hanyu did not intend to get involved in these projects, as this is the normal operating model of an investment company.

It's normal to have both gains and losses; if you only make money and never lose, then there's a problem.

In addition, America Entertainment Investment Company also sent out the latest work updates.

Negotiations between the two parties regarding the acquisition of Blockbuster are still ongoing.

Meanwhile, seeing that Elf Entertainment was interested in selling Blockbuster, other people also began to get restless.

Unfortunately, Hideki Hanyu is now trying to play a game of transferring assets from one hand to the other, and incidentally, he wants to use Blockbuster to make the American Entertainment Investment Company, a powerful interest group, even bigger.

In a few years, he might cash out at the peak before Blockbuster declines, but definitely not now.

Therefore, unsurprisingly, the others will be rejected.

After learning about the progress of Blockbuster's transaction, Hideki Hanyu began looking for the next target for America Entertainment Investment Company.

This time, Hideki Hanyu plans to use the power of America Capital to deliver a devastating blow to a Japanese company.

Therefore, even in the final moments of his work at the Hopewell Center, Hideki Hanyu was still writing new investment plans.

As for who the target is, Hideki Hanyu will keep it a secret for now. He will personally announce this plan at the board meeting of America Entertainment Investment Company.

On the 57th floor of the Hopewell Centre, in Hideki Hanyu's private office, he handles his work.

As Hideki Hanyu finished writing the proposal, he couldn't help but complain.

"Writing documents by hand is such a hassle; I hope the era of computerized office work will come soon."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a sweet voice rang out from the side.

"Brother, what are you saying?"

Hideki Yuzuru turned his head and saw Miss Yang walking towards him with a glass of juice.

He came here to work at noon today, and Ms. Yang happened to be at Universal Music as well. After she finished her work, she came upstairs to find him.

After they became intimate, Ms. Yang privately began calling Hideki Yuzuru "brother" in a sweet and affectionate way.

The scumbag finds it pleasant and enjoyable, so he naturally lets the other person call him whatever they want.

In private, he started calling Miss Yang by her nickname, Lili.

Although it has a kind of "rustic" feel that fits the characteristics of the times, it's just Ms. Yang's real name.

"nothing."

Hideki Hanyu gave a casual reply, then immediately changed the subject, "My work is finished. Where do you want to go next? I'll go with you. I'm leaving tomorrow, and I might not be here next time I come."

Upon hearing Hideki Yuzuru's words, Miss Yang immediately put down her cup and sat directly in Hideki Yuzuru's lap, a faint look appearing on her delicate and beautiful face.

"Brother, I don't want to be separated from you."

Sitting in the high-backed chair, Hideki Yuzuru watched the beautiful girl snuggle in his arms, and the scene gave him the feeling of a boss having a secret rendezvous with his mistress.

Furthermore, the way they address each other is becoming increasingly in line with the characteristics of the current era.

"If love between two people is meant to last, why should they be together every day and night?"

I don't want to be separated from you either, but we both need to focus on our careers. This temporary separation is for a better reunion.

The scumbag showered her with sweet words, his eyes filled with affection as he looked at the sweet and lovely girl in his arms. He couldn't resist and leaned down to kiss her.

Then, things spiraled out of control.

By the time the passion between the two subsided and they resumed their calm conversation, they were already lying in a bedroom on the same floor.

Hideki Hanyu gently stroked the beauty's smooth shoulder, speaking words of comfort.

"You can go back home with peace of mind. I've already arranged for people to take care of both your work and life."

Miss Yang asked sweetly, "What did my brother do?"

"Of course, I'll give you a good life. You'll see when you get back." The scumbag kept everyone in suspense.

It's not hard to guess; it's simply a matter of using money to help Ms. Yang and her family change their lives.

Ms. Yang comes from a single-parent family and has lived a difficult life with her mother and sister since childhood.

As she grew up, Miss Yang naturally wanted to work hard to give her mother and sister a better life.

This is why Ms. Yang, even though she already had a job, still wanted to venture to Guangzhou; she simply wanted to earn more money.

As for musical dreams, they're just excuses to appease the media.

While arranging for those vehicles to enter the country, Hideki Yuzuru had already made other arrangements, which Ms. Yang would find out once she returned to China.

Seeing that it was getting late, Hideki Yuzuru didn't stay at Hopewell Centre any longer and took Miss Yang out to play.

The two strolled around until evening before returning to 31 Barker Road.

Upon entering, they discovered that Zhou Wenqiong and Ning Jing were not there.

All Hideki Yuzuru knew was that Ning Jing's role was introduced to him by Florence Chan; it was a minor supporting role that could be filmed in a couple of days. He didn't ask what movie it was.

They said filming would wrap up today, but they still haven't returned.

Hideki Yuzuru immediately called to inquire and learned that there had been an accident on set. Although it had nothing to do with Ning Jing, Zhou Wenqiong still rushed over.

Ning Jing still has a few scenes to film, so she may have to stay on set for a few more hours.

Hearing this, Hideki Yuzuru turned to Miss Yang and asked, "Xiaoqiong and Ningjing are still on set. They'll probably be filming for a few more hours. Shall we go visit them?"

Miss Yang, who had already changed into her pajamas, came up and hugged Hideki Yuzuru, pressing close to him with a seductive expression.

"Brother, we're going to be separated tomorrow. Can you stay with me a little longer while they're not around?"

"It'll still be a few hours anyway, we can make it there later."

As Hideki Yuzuru listened to Miss Yang's words, a guess inexplicably arose in his mind.

This woman probably knows about his relationship with those two women.

Could it have been that night?

Hideki Yuzuru looked at Miss Yang, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes.

But he quickly put that guess out of his mind.

So what if he knows? When has he ever cared about such things?

Moreover, the person in front of me clearly doesn't care about the matter itself; on the contrary, they seem to be trying to win favor from afar.

Hideki Hanyu enjoys this kind of healthy competition, so he naturally wants to fulfill the requests of beautiful women.

……

Two hours later, Hideki Hanyu drove his Land Rover to the Golden Harvest Studios on Busan Road once again.

However, this time it wasn't for Cheng Long, but to pick up Zhou Wenqiong and Ning Jing.

Upon arriving at his destination, Hideki Hanyu unexpectedly encountered Chen Shufen from Hengxing Entertainment.

From a distance, you could see that the woman was discussing something with Zhou Wenqiong and Ning Jing.

Hideki Hanyu approached and asked, "What are you talking about? You seem so engrossed in your conversation."

Only then did the group notice Hideki Hanyu's arrival. After greeting him, Zhou Wenqiong replied, "Manager Chen thinks Xiao Ning is very talented in acting and suggests that Xiao Ning come to Hong Kong to develop his career. What do you think, brother-in-law?"

"You guys decide this yourselves. I know absolutely nothing about acting."

Hideki Hanyu found an excuse not to comment.

Although I accidentally ate Ning Jing before.

He wasn't particularly interested in this woman. After experiencing the sense of accomplishment of winning her over, he wouldn't forget the benefits he was supposed to give her, and they could have a friendly match if the opportunity arose, but he wouldn't consider a long-term relationship.

Therefore, having already received development suggestions from the capital, he will not become more deeply involved in Ningjing's affairs.

Seeing that Hideki Yuzuru hadn't said anything, Zhou Wenqiong had no choice but to continue the discussion with Chen Shufen herself.

Ning Jing, who was standing nearby, saw that Yu Sheng Hideki and Miss Yang had come together, and immediately stepped forward and asked, pretending to be curious.

"Why did Sister Yang come with your husband?"

Ms. Yang replied, "I heard from my husband that there was an accident on set, so I asked him to bring me along to see if Xiao Ning was alright."

"The crew has something to do, but I'm fine. It's just that filming these past few days has been quite tiring, so I don't look as good as you, Sister Yang."

Ning Jing's words were somewhat strange.

Moreover, as he spoke, his eyes subtly swept over Hideki Yuzuru and Miss Yang.

Clearly, this woman had figured something out.

After all, women understand women best.

Hideki Hanyu, who was standing to the side, understood the implication but had no intention of getting involved. Instead, he wanted to see how things would develop.

Unfortunately, the scumbag's wish to watch the drama unfold did not come true.

It seemed that Chen Shufen and Zhou Wenqiong had reached a conclusion in their discussion. Chen Shufen came over to say goodbye to Yu Sheng Hideki and then left directly.

Zhou Wenqiong's return interrupted the "confrontation" between Ning Jing and Yang Yuying.

"Brother-in-law, let's go home."

"Okay, but I'm a little hungry. I'll go back and buy some late-night snacks."

As soon as Hideki Yuzuru finished speaking, the three women immediately began ordering food.

"I want to eat roast meat."

"I want to eat stir-fried crab."

And so, Hideki Hanyu drove the three women back to 31 Barker Road after buying them the food they wanted.

After entering, as the group laid out the food, Zhou Wenqiong immediately ran upstairs and brought down a few bottles of wine.

It was the same kind of sweet wine that Ms. Yang had drunk before—sweet and smooth, but with a high alcohol content, making it easy to get drunk.

Under Zhou Wenqiong's slogan, "We'll go back to China after tonight, and we won't leave until we're drunk," the three women ate and drank, and soon they were all swaying and their consciousness was hazy.

As the saying goes, "Alcohol can cloud judgment, and drunkenness can easily lead to mistakes."

Ms. Yang, who had previously been careful to hide her relationship with Hideki Hanyu, got drunk and started hugging and kissing the scumbag.

Seeing this, Ning Jing immediately pointed at Miss Yang and said, "I knew I was right. You've been eyeing Mr. Yang for a long time. You left the record company early that day because you knew he was coming back, right?"

Ms. Yang retorted without backing down, "Don't just talk about me. I saw everything that night when you were peeking outside the pool and then pretending not to know before running in."

Ning Jing, her secret exposed, immediately stepped forward in embarrassment and anger to hug Yu Sheng Hideki, while pushing Miss Yang aside and saying, "Sir is mine."

Not to be outdone, Miss Yang pushed Ning Jing and said, "My brother is mine."

Surrounded by the two women, Hideki Hanyu listened to their conversation and instantly realized that what he thought was an "accident" and a "coincidence" was actually premeditated and deliberate.

However, Hideki Hanyu didn't mind the truth at all and said he could have brought more.

However, just as the two women were fighting over him, Zhou Wenqiong, who was already drunk and slumped on the table, suddenly sat up and shouted loudly.

"Shut up, all of you. My brother-in-law is mine."

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhou Wenqiong pounced and pushed Yu Sheng Hideki onto the stall, then began to act on her own.

Upon seeing this, the two women who were arguing immediately put aside their competition and joined their boss in the effort to torment the scumbag.

Faced with this situation, Hideki Hanyu was naturally powerless to resist and could only be ravaged at his mercy.
