Tokyo Reborn: Dark Superstar

Chapter 48 Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd.

"Kill That Tokyo Man" won the first place on the Oricon weekly chart, which once again enhanced Takakura Bunta's voice.

Volunteer incentive bonuses and charitable housekeeping service subsidies increased by 30%,

…………

That evening, Takakura Bunta's high-end customized cosmetics service added a new member.

Mrs. Takemoto is wearing a black and white silk kimono with exquisite torii patterns embroidered on the kimono. She is very well-dressed. The black and white color scheme is simple and elegant, and her behavior reveals an innate elegance.

Mrs. Takemoto drank a few glasses of champagne and tied her hair up. A few strands of hair were scattered around her face, adding a bit of messy beauty.

The 1000 million check from First Quanye Bank in her hand made her appearance even more delicate and pleasant.

…………

Back then, Bunta Takakura was able to go from being a temporary worker to becoming a Kirialodian in "Ultraman Tega" and officially entering the Japanese entertainment industry. The most important thing was Mrs. Takemoto's recommendation.

Of course Bunta Takakura must repay her well.

The puffs are so filled that they overflow...

....................................

After several big business deals came into the account, Bunta Takakura became a lot less focused on variety show announcements, commercial activities, and photo shoots.

These are exhausting jobs that take several years, but the income is not as high as filming a CM commercial of a few seconds or developing a private cosmetics customization membership.

Takakura Bunta has determined that his core business is CM advertising and private cosmetics customization.

Other TV series, movies, variety shows, singing, variety show announcements, etc. are just means to maintain exposure and stabilize the status in the entertainment industry.

In terms of the cosmetics business, Takakura Bunta also delegated all the power to Mizuno Doue, just like the daily operations of the studio were fully delegated to Kanda Keiko.

Don't use people with suspicion, don't use people who are suspicious.

Moreover, although the flagship cosmetics of Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd. sells 3 units per month, the sales are hundreds of millions of yen.

However, they have all invested in opening new Mizuno Cosmetics convenience stores. Currently, 15 stores have been opened. They also bought a two-story office building with a loan in Minato District as the company's R&D center.

This radical expansion resulted in the monthly payment of workers' wages, leaving only a few hundred thousand yen in real net profit on the books.

…………

Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd., with the help of Kariya's intermediary, basically brought all the illegal workers in Yokohama City into the factory.

Takakura Bunta treated all workers equally and provided these smuggled Chinese workers with the normal wages and holiday benefits of local workers.

This is one of the important reasons why Mizuno Electronics Factory only has a net profit of a few hundred thousand yen per month.

…………

In terms of corporate governance model, Gao Cangbuntai established Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd.

This company controls Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd.

Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd. has only two shareholders, one is Takakura Bunta and the other is the Steel Balloon Union Committee.

The members of the Steel Balloon Trade Union Committee are all employees of its holding companies.

Among them, Takakura Bunta holds 1.01% of the shares, and the Steel Balloon Trade Union Committee holds 98.99% of the shares.

Every year, Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd. distributes 98.99% of its profits as dividends to all employees of its holding companies,

Currently, dividends are distributed to the only holding company, Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd.    ………

Within this ownership structure, Bunta Takakura is also the lifelong president of the Steel Balloon Union Committee and has absolute say.

Other members of the Steel Balloon Union Committee are only entitled to dividends.

In addition, according to the charter design of Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd., Takakura Bunta has the right to nominate the board of directors, and has a veto power on major events.

…………

Many years later, a company CEO from Longguo came to learn the business model of Totland Investment Holdings Co., Ltd., and after returning to China, he carried it forward and built a powerful high-tech empire.

....................................

In 1996, the entire market had not yet emerged from the shadow of the real estate market collapse. If real estate and residential properties were hit a trough, then the prices of office buildings were sent to hell.

At Takakura Bunta's insistence, Mizuno Electronics Co., Ltd. applied for a zero-interest loan at the Shibaura Building in Minato District, Tokyo, and purchased the 4800rd and th floors of the Shibaura Building for million.

Shibaura Tower is an office building designed and built by Tokyu Real Estate, Tokyo's largest real estate developer.

Not only can you overlook the Rainbow Bridge, but you can also have a panoramic view of RB's famous landmark Tokyo TV Tower and the entire Tokyo Bay.

…………

The entire office building adopts a modernist design concept.

Its appearance is simple and elegant, with a streamlined shape and glass curtain wall, giving people a modern and technological impression. It is equipped with a gym, coffee shop, guest space, library and so on.

It belongs to the core area in the port area where you can see the sea.

The average annual personal income in Tokyo's Minato Ward ranks first in the country. There are 86 foreign embassies in the area. The area has a strong international atmosphere and is recognized as a wealthy area in Tokyo.

In addition, the Shibaura Building is home to many large corporate headquarters representing RB.

According to Takakura Bunta's later memories.

After 2020, this building, as a high-quality asset of Tokyu Real Estate, will only be rented but not sold, and the monthly rent for each floor will be more than million yen.

Therefore, among the sixteen R&D center locations given by Mizuno Doue, Takakura Bunta saw the Shibaura Building as an option and immediately decided to take over these two floors.

…………

Within two weeks, Bunta Takakura officially moved out of his original apartment in Minamisenjucho, Arakawa District, and moved into a large flat-floor apartment on the 32nd floor of the top floor of Shibaura Building.

At present, all the money Bunta Takakura earns is used to repay debts. This large flat-floor apartment was rented first, and a five-year agreement was signed with Tokyu Real Estate, and Mizuno Tangyu negotiated the right of first refusal for the apartment.

…………

Advertiser Jingishiya saw that Takakura Bunta liked drinking, so he presented ten boxes of beer as a gift.

After taking a shower, Takakura Bunta returned to the bedroom, opened a bottle of Kyoshiya Ise Kadoya ale, and thought about the development direction of the new flagship cosmetics.

ding ding ding...

The phone rang. It was the property manager's call.

"Mr. Takakura, excuse me."

"There is a guest in the reception room who wants to visit you..."
