Tokyo Bubble Life

Chapter 609 616, Banks are indeed the greediest capital~

 It’s the time when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom again.

In the small park next to the studio, there is a very tall Edo Higan cherry tree. Its thick trunk requires an adult to hug it.

Pure white cherry blossoms are covered with thin branches, hanging down like willows, arranged neatly. Like a bead curtain made of cherry blossoms, it sways gently in the wind and sprinkles a few petals from time to time~

　　The employees of the studio like to gather together during lunch to eat the lunch boxes they brought, or eat the bread and work meals they bought.

Nagayama Naoki also arrived here at noon today. While eating a work lunch, he chatted with Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi next to him. This was mainly in the Japanese workplace that pays attention to the relationship between superiors and subordinates. Other Shuyu people did not dare to talk to them casually. Naoki Nagayama chatted~

“The speed of cherry blossoms falling is five centimeters per second~”

A cherry blossom petal floated into Nagayama Naoki’s lunch box, causing him to say something like this subconsciously, and then he raised his head to admire the beautiful scenery, “What a beautiful scenery!”

“Naoki-san, don’t believe in trivial knowledge that you don’t know where it comes from!” Itou Shuichi complained, “It will make people feel frivolous!”

“Xiu Yisang, you can try measuring it!”

 The two people started talking about this topic, and they soon talked about the fallacy of averages, sample size and other statistical concepts.

　　Can't you eat quietly when Otomo Yoshimura, who was eating silently next to you, couldn't help but sigh? And the conversation was still about such a boring topic.

 “Naoki-san, how is the editing of the movie going?” Otomo Yoshimura interrupted the argument between the two.

“Ah, the editing went very smoothly!” Naoki Nagayama said, “Because I already have the picture in my mind, all I need is to process the footage to the best possible quality.”

 “Oh? So how long will it take to edit?”

“It will take about a week, and it will definitely be released in early April.” Naoki Nagayama said.

“Then, we can start promoting it now!” Yoshimura Otomo reminded, “The previous “Love Letter” was released in a hurry. If there was previous warm-up, maybe we could try to hit the tens of billions of box office.”

The release period of "Love Letter" has ended for almost a month. Due to the high attendance rate, the movie theater's schedule has actually been extended by more than half a month compared to other movies.

 At the end, the cumulative box office has reached nearly 7 billion, which is already a very impressive box office result.

"Hahaha, "Love Letter" will still be re-released this winter!" Nagayama Naoki is very confident about this. "Such a long-lived movie will definitely exceed 10 billion!"

“But speaking of pre-heating promotion.” Naoki Nagayama thought of Momo Kikuchi, “Although the song “Sakura (Sakura)” that I gave to Momoko before is not suitable for the feature film, it seems that it can be used as a promotional song.”

“Otomo-san, would you like to have Momoko-chan record it as soon as possible, and Kijima-kun and I will work harder to make a trailer?”

Yoshimura Otomo directly pushed the question back: "This point should be decided by Naoki-san!"

ˆ “.”

“If that’s the case, then let’s do it! By the way, we can ask Peach Jam to take some photos for promotional posters! We can’t all use scenes from the movie!”

“Otomo-san, it shouldn’t conflict with your debut plan, right?”

“Well, originally Peach Jam was still in the training period during this period. Recording her debut song in advance won’t have any impact!”

Seeing that both Yoshimura Otomo and Itou Shuichi had no objections, the matter was settled. Unknowingly, Kikuchi Momo was on vacation, so it was arranged like this!

A few lunch boxes were quickly eaten, and the Shuyou people returned to the studio and continued their part-time work.

Just when Naoki Nagayama was about to continue working in the editing room, Shuichi Itou followed:

“Naoki-san, since we talked about recording the song “Love Will End Like the Rain” with the same name theme song, should we also record it together?”

"Xunjiang? Hi, no problem, the two sheep will be driven together!" Nagayama Naoki had almost forgotten about this idol, "I remember Xunjiang has been practicing for a long time~ When I inform Momochan, let's come together! "

Nagayama Naoki already knows a lot about song recording. Anyway, he has the best reference in his mind, so he just needs to lean on it.

 “This will do!”

Itō Shuichi followed Naoki Nagayama into the editing room, and seemed to be helping with the editing. This surprised Naoki Nagayama:

“Xiu Yisang, don’t you still want to interview those junior students? Why are you here?”

"Alas~~~" This guy showed a vicissitudes of life expression, "They are all acquaintances, it is difficult to refuse any of them. Moreover, those beautiful school girls kept calling 'Yitang Senior, Yitou Senior' to stay any longer. I’m afraid I’ll make a mistake!”

ˆ “.”

Not only Nagayama Naoki, but also Kijima Kyū on the side looked at him with disdain.

While Nagayama Naoki is focusing on editing, Shuyou Capital Company in Ginza is working intensely.

Since Naoki Nagayama decided on the strategy of buying Fujitsu General's stocks at the bottom, everyone in the company has used various methods to quietly buy Fujitsu General's stocks.

Overseas accounts, offshore companies, broilers. Control different accounts to build positions, quietly buy Fujitsu General's stock one by one, and then start to suppress or even smash the market when the stock price rises slightly. In short, the stock is in a An embarrassing situation that neither rises nor falls.

 The specific operations are naturally handled by experienced operators. Anyway, according to Naoki Nagayama, Fujitsu and General will officially join forces at the end of the year, so they have enough time!

However, before the final surge, sufficient funds must be prepared.

With the help of his relationship with Mitsubishi Bank’s predecessor, Ito Shinyuki, Nakai Wonta has almost reached an agreement on the loan. However, even with Naoki-san’s many physical assets, Ito Shinyuki still wants another guarantee.

 No one answered the phone at home, so he called Naoki Nagayama at the studio:

“Naoki Mitsubishi Bank still thinks the risk is high and they want to increase the collateral.”

“Eh?” Nagayama Naoki was a little surprised, “My several properties add up to more than 3 billion. Mitsubishi Bank still thinks there are risks?”

“After all, this is our first time working with Shuyou Capital. And we have mortgages on several properties.”

 “Is there still a mortgage?”

Nagayama Naoki then remembered that his first few properties, the land at Takadanobaba, the apartments in Waseda and Bunkyo Ward, were all bought with loans, and he is still paying off the loans!

 In other words, he is still a house slave. Although the assets can be paid back long ago.

“That’s it, what suggestions did they put forward?” Mitsubishi Bank had naturally investigated Shuyou Capital and Naoki Nagayama, and he wanted to hear what suggestions the bank had.

“Itou Mayuki said that Mitsubishi Bank wants the shares of Naoki Kuangshuyu Co., Ltd. as collateral for the guarantee,” Nakai Wonta said cautiously.

“Share shares in Shuyou Group?”

Nagayama Naoki was stunned. Banks are indeed the greediest capital. Although there has been no official valuation, since the reorganization, the market value of Shuyou Group has at least exceeded 10 billion. In the long run, the valuation will be even higher. And Mitsubishi Bank actually wanted to use a loan of 5 billion to get Naoki Nagayama to come forward. It was obviously the idea of ​​acquiring Shuyou Group after losing money in the stock market!

 Naoki Nagayama naturally agrees with this!

 After all, he knew that after borrowing this money, he would make a sure profit!

"Shuyou's shares!" But of course you have to be more cautious when replying, and you have to take care of the bank: "It's not impossible to mortgage the Shuyou's shares. But other real estate will be reduced. Moreover, Mitsubishi Bank needs to be the lowest in terms of interest rates! The credit limit must also be increased!”

"Naoki-san, are you sure?" Wonta Nakai raised his voice a little louder. "The senior management of Mitsubishi Bank is actually interested in Shuyou Group's shares. They believe that Shuyou Capital's investment in the stock market is very risky."

“It doesn’t matter, we know whether the risk is big or not, don’t we?”

Nagayama Naoki comforted him, "Wait until next year, they will find out that they lent us a large amount of money for free!"

"In this case, I will contact senior Masayuki Ito." Wonta Nakai nodded, "The signing process should soon begin."

 “Hey, just let me know when the time comes!”

 Naoki Nagayama hung up the phone and thought about the gains and losses of stock trading.

“It’s so troublesome to be targeted by banks with such little capital! I won’t make quick money in the stock market after this time!”

 Naoki Nagayama felt that he no longer had much information about the stock market in his mind, so he decided to hold a few potential stocks such as Microsoft and Apple for a long time in the future.

 Let’s invest in real estate! Buying land in Tokyo is a no-brainer. Just do it before the bubble bursts in 1990! Earnings are not necessarily lower than in the stock market!

Before leaving get off work, Kijima Kyo’s eyes wandered in the editing room. He had been struggling all afternoon.

"It just so happens that Shuichi-san and Naoki-san are both in the editing room, and there is no one else around yet. There are not many opportunities like this!" Kijima Kyon thought about his previous determination, "We are about to get off work. If we don't remind them about the red envelope on the set, Maybe they really forgot about it!”

 “Ahem!” Kijima Xu coughed twice, attracting the attention of the other two people.

“Hey, Kijima-kun, are you still here?” Itou Xiu suddenly said, “I thought you took leave this afternoon!”

 Kijima said nothing: "Shuichi-san, I handed you the material just now."

“Ahaha, that’s it!” Itou Shuichi also said haha, “I didn’t even pay attention, I thought it was Naoki-san!”

 Then he turned his head and looked at the clock: "Ah, it's already this time, it's time to get off work!"

 Kijima Xu is used to it, but he is not as silent as usual. Today he has mustered up the courage:

 “Zhi Shusang, Xiu Yisang, actually I have something to ask you!”

“Oh?” Itou Shuichi and Nagayama Naoki both looked over.

The first time he spoke in front of two bosses, Kijima Xu was still a little nervous, but he calmed down:

“Naoki-san, Shuichi-san, do you still remember when we were filming in Musashino? I filmed for most of the day with a team welcoming the bride!”

"Ah! That!" Nagayama Naoki remembered, "I was so lucky that day, there happened to be a newlywed getting married!"

Itou Shuichi also nodded: "Yes, yes, I thought it would take two days, but I didn't expect it to be filmed in one go!"

Then Naoki Nagayama looked at Kyū Kijima:

 “Kijima-kun, what’s wrong?”

"Arnold." Kijima Kyoshi's voice became inexplicably softer. "Didn't I follow them all the way through the filming? The crew also said that they would help make a short film to commemorate the wedding!"

Yi Tangxiu nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, the bride also said that this is their reward for appearing on camera!"

 Then he also looked at Kyū Kijima: "Is the short film ready?"

 “Huh?.Ah! It’s already done.”

He originally thought about mentioning the red envelope, but his boss suddenly asked about his work. Kijima Kyor subconsciously searched for the results of his work. He found a video tape on the stage and handed it to Itou Shuichi, "This is what they did." For the commemorative short film, I also used some scenes from the movie.”

After taking it, Shuichi Itou and Naoki Nagayama put the short film on the projector and watched it with gusto.

"The short film is well edited!" "The photos are very good." "The bride is smiling very happily!" "This wedding is a very happy one." "Shuichi-san, did you have a commemorative video when you got married? ?" "."

Kijima Xu watched the two bosses start chatting with each other, and tried to interrupt several times but failed to find a chance. The two people's attention was all turned to the short film, and maybe their past. The memories came back.

 In short, Kijima Xu disappeared from among them again!

 He sighed helplessly. It seemed that there was no result in reminding him of the red envelope!

 Forget it, it was always like this before, haven’t you always come here? !

When he was a child, he was the only one in the class who didn't get the little red flower that the teacher said he would give; in high school, Zhongyi's female classmate promised to wait for him behind the teaching building to confess his feelings, but she disappeared after school; when he grew up, his boss promised bonuses, Promotions always disappear silently.

 Kijima Xu’s life has always been spent in the ignorance of others. Only a few keen guys in Miu Miu can notice him and become friends.

 It may take more than ten years for someone to discover you after you die!

Kijima Xu sighed, stood up silently, and opened the door of the editing room. Even if he left now, the two of them wouldn't notice it!

 Just when he wanted to leave~

 “Kishima-kun!” Naoki Nagayama suddenly called him!

Kijima Xu turned his head and saw Nagayama Naoki looking at him steadily and said:

 “Kijima-kun worked hard all day that time!”

 “Ah, that’s what it should be.”

“How about that? I told you at that time that I wanted to give Kijima-kun a big red envelope! Just wait a moment~”

 Speaking, Naoki Nagayama quickly ran to the finance office, withdrew 200,000 yen from Mitsuru Kitamura and put it in an envelope.

 After returning to the editing room, he handed it directly to Kijima Kyun:

 “Kijima-kun, come here! This is your red envelope!”

ˆ “.”

Kishima Kyor took the thick envelope and knew just by the feel of it that there must be a lot of yen inside.

Looking at Nagayama Naoki's sincere eyes, Kijima Kyor felt a warm current flow through his chest.

In this imaginary real world, there are still people who can remember themselves after all!

　　Transition chapter between acts. I found that after the third update, it really takes a day or two to recover.

　　　　. I posted it early and there will be another chapter tomorrow!
