Chapter 866: Replace the Mitsui Group and become the richest person in Nihon!

After such an incident occurred, Akina Nakamori naturally went to the Nakamori agency early to discuss with the president and the others how to handle it.

However, Naoki Nagayama didn't pay too much attention to it. Although he didn't rely much on the media, a more important point was that many people went out to have fun last night!

With all the major agencies exerting their influence together, it wouldn't stir up much of a splash in the entertainment industry!

So, after finishing breakfast, Naoki Nagayama drove directly to the studio... and then detoured to the new headquarters in Ikebukuro...

"Good morning, Naoki-san~" The person on duty today was Xingxia Suzuki.

"Hahaha, good morning to you too, Xingxia-chan~" Naoki Nagayama said with a smile, "I actually took the wrong road today and ended up at the studio~"

"......."

What was there to be happy about taking the wrong road? Xingxia Suzuki could only awkwardly echo with a smile, and then asked with some curiosity,

"Is the studio empty now? Will it be sublet in the future?"

"Ah... no!" Naoki Nagayama knew Shuichi Yin Tang's plan for the studio, "It will be restored to its original function and upgraded into a great place for taking photos..."

"I see."

Having satisfied her curiosity, Xingxia Suzuki nodded and then said to Naoki Nagayama,

"Naoki-san, today's newspapers have already been placed on the desk in your office~ Otomo-san is in his own office~ Is there anything else you need me to handle?"

"..... Not for the moment..... You continue with your work~"

"Hai~"

The front desk staff was already so proficient at answering Naoki Nagayama's daily questions~

Naoki Nagayama took the elevator to the floor where his office was located. After changing to a new headquarters, there was one big change: he didn't have to walk through the employees when arriving at the company, and thus there weren't so many greetings and bows...

Why did he feel a little bit disappointed...

Shaking his head to shake off this feeling, he couldn't be corrupted by the remnants of feudalism! After all, he was someone who had experienced new-era education!

This time, he didn't go to Otomo Fangcun's side first, but came to his own office, which was in the best location~

The spacious office had already been ventilated in the morning under the care of the administrative department, and the air felt very fresh... On the solid wood desk, the succulents had also been watered, looking lush... And then there was a stack of today's newspapers and magazines neatly arranged on the desktop~

Opening them to take a look, it was indeed similar to the Shanyingyuan, all about the absurd events of last night...

Naoki Nagayama set this part aside without reading it, and instead started reading the "Nihon Economic News". He was going to the United States soon, so he needed to understand the current economic situation in advance.

"Minister of Finance Noboru Takeshita and American Secretary of the Treasury James Baker have already talked~"

Naoki Nagayama noticed this piece of information. As a press release for a high-level official visit, it didn't contain specific details of the conversation, but the statement that "the Minister of Finance and the American Secretary of the Treasury had a pleasant conversation regarding reform proposals for exchange rates and macroeconomic policies" was enough!

Next, they should be going to places like Paris and Hawaii, and finally return to the New York Plaza Hotel in New York, USA... The five countries would sign the "Plaza Accord"!

"Still... two months..."

Naoki Nagayama knew that the most glorious bubble era of Nihon was about to arrive, a five-year period like a roller coaster...

"In short, go to New York and get things arranged!" Naoki Nagayama pondered his operations and felt there was no problem, "During this period, raise personal wealth to one hundred billion!"

"By that time, I will truly never have to worry about money again!"

Even with forty billion yen now, this magnitude certainly couldn't compare to those financial groups and families in Nihon, which were the accumulation of several generations after all...

But by the end of this year, Naoki Nagayama should have reached the threshold of a financial group family, coupled with the soaring bubble that would follow...

"After the five years of the bubble pass, what gambling king, shipping king..."

Just as Naoki Nagayama was daydreaming about the future, the office door was pushed open!

"Naoki-san?" Shuichi Yin Tang walked in, "I was wondering why I didn't see you in Otomo-san's office... Daydreaming? What are you thinking about?"

"......."

Naoki Nagayama came back to his senses,

"Thinking about replacing the Mitsui Group and becoming the number one financial group in Nihon!"

"Pfft... Hahahaha~" Shuichi Yin Tang was amused by this sentence, "Naoki-san, are you daydreaming? Replace the Mitsui Group? This is completely impossible!"

Even though Shuichi Yin Tang was a director good at fantasizing, he had never thought about replacing the Mitsui Group in his head.

After nearly 300 years of domestication, the Mitsui family was the symbol of wealth, and this seemed to have become the ideological imprint of the Nihon people~

Naoki Nagayama didn't have this imprint. China could catch up with a superpower like the United States from a destitute newborn nation within half a century... This made him have absolutely no awe for old-school forces!

"Shuichi-san, we already have over forty billion in liquid funds..." Naoki Nagayama didn't rush to refute, but slowly analyzed, "According to my expectations, by the end of the year, it should be able to reach a scale of one hundred billion..."

"And according to my analysis of the Nihon economy, in the next few years, we will probably encounter a golden development period that is rare in a century..."

Looking at the brilliant sunshine outside the window, Naoki Nagayama's voice seemed to have become a bit more psychedelic,

"One hundred billion in assets, if operated well, doubling it ten times... it seems that this possibility is not non-existent..."

One trillion yen in assets, no matter how you calculate it, you can't say it's not a financial group!

Shuichi Yin Tang listened to Naoki Nagayama's words and fell into silence. Although he wasn't that sensitive to wealth, judging from Naoki Nagayama's past performance, such an operation... it seemed it wasn't impossible!!!

"Shuyou, is it going to become a financial group?"

Waking up from a daydream, the financial group turned out to be myself?!

Sheets of Yukichi Fukuzawa and Prince Shotoku floated down from the sky, quickly covering Shuichi Yin Tang's figure, passing over his head... making one's vision go dark and breathing difficult...

"Tasuke-te (Help)~~~ I'm going to~~~ I'm going to be drowned by money!!!"

With a slap, Shuichi Yin Tang slapped his face hard, and only then did he wake up... Naoki-san, this guy, is he a devil? A single sentence can make people fall into fantasy!!!

And at this moment, Naoki Nagayama, sitting behind the desk, was looking at Shuichi Yin Tang with a face full of surprise and fear...

"Shuichi-san, what are you doing?!"

It was clearly just a normal chat, but the guy in front of him suddenly slapped himself hard. Anyone would be a little panicked, right!

Insane?

"......." Shuichi Yin Tang touched his red and swollen face, and it was a long time before he slowly said, "... There was a mosquito just now..."

"A mosquito?"

"Yeah!"

Oh, summer is here, it's normal to have mosquitoes~

"......."

After staring at each other with wide eyes and being slightly silent for a while, Naoki Nagayama finally changed the subject:

"Ahem, speaking of which, Shuichi-san, are you not filming 'Squid Game' today?"

"I'm going to deliver the first three episodes to TBS TV station today, and I came over to ask if Naoki-san wants to go with me..." Shuichi Yin Tang spoke much more clearly, "After all, it's Naoki-san's script..."

"I won't go~" Naoki Nagayama shook his head, having no interest in this at all, "I believe in Shuichi-san's ability, 'Squid Game' will definitely be no problem!"

"...... Alright~"

Actually, Shuichi Yin Tang wasn't too worried either. His relationship with the head of the TBS production department was quite good, and he wasn't afraid of acceptance at all.

Just at this moment, the office door was pushed open again.

"What are you two hiding here for?"

Otomo Fangcun walked in with some confusion, and at a glance, he saw the red and swollen five-finger print on Shuichi Yin Tang's face, and then looked at Naoki Nagayama with some anger,

"Naoki-san, why did you hit Shuichi-san?!"

"......."

Naoki Nagayama was unable to explain for a moment...

In this era without surveillance, if Shuichi-san lay down now, there was no doubt he could frame Naoki Nagayama with a charge of harming others and demand huge compensation!

"...... Otomo-san, if I say I didn't hit him, do you believe me?"

"How is that possible? Could it be that Shuichi-san hit himself for fun?" Otomo Fangcun walked to Shuichi Yin Tang's side and looked at the slap print, "And he hit so hard!!! How is that possible!!!"

"......"

Seeing this, Naoki Nagayama gave up explaining and looked at the culprit, Shuichi Yin Tang.

"A mosquito!" Shuichi Yin Tang said, "I was trying to hit a mosquito!"

"......."

Otomo Fangcun looked at the sincere Naoki Nagayama and the serious Shuichi Yin Tang, and became a little at a loss...

He actually didn't believe Naoki Nagayama would hit people either, just now it was just a subconscious question~

But now hearing Shuichi Yin Tang's answer...

What kind of new play is this? In such a short time, could it be that I can no longer fit in between Shuichi-san and Naoki-san?!

After Akina Nakamori drove her Porsche to Nakamori, she was immediately welcomed into the president's office.

Fusanori Mingxing, Maki Ueda, Ryomei Tanaka, including Hiroshi Hanamoto himself, were all in the office, and newspapers were messily spread on the coffee table in front of the sofa...

"Akina-chan... you're here~"

Hiroshi Hanamoto looked up at the pillar of his own agency~

"Hai..." Akina Nakamori had an embarrassed smile on her face and bowed to everyone in the room, "Sumimasen, I've caused trouble for everyone~"

"......"

Seeing Akina Nakamori's appearance, Hiroshi Hanamoto felt as if he saw his own child who was in the rebellious phase,

"Sigh~~~ You and Naoki-san... you really know how to play..."

"Last night... it was actually an accident..." Akina Nakamori explained, "I didn't think so many people would come..."

Hiroshi Hanamoto waved his hand:

"Forget it, that's not the point... Anyway, your relationship with Naoki Nagayama is public..."

He pointed to an envelope and said: "The point is, did you hit the reporter or not?"

"......" Akina Nakamori looked at the photos and the text of the report, then shook her head, "I actually don't remember much... I just remember that when we came out, there were reporters everywhere, and at that time Naoki-san was pulling me to squeeze forward... But there shouldn't be any such thing as hitting people..."

Ryomei Tanaka decisively grasped the keyword:

"Crowded?... Then it's an accident!"

"Yeah, an accident!" Hiroshi Hanamoto also nodded, "Just say that to the media later! That paparazzi was just squeezed down..."

Regardless of whether it was the truth or not, this was the explanation given by Nakamori!

As an old hand in the entertainment industry, Hiroshi Hanamoto knew that the public didn't actually pursue the truth, they only pursued hot topics! All the agency had to do was suppress such hot topics!

"Akina-chan, you were supposed to continue rehearsing today, right?" Hiroshi Hanamoto arranged directly, "Today we will contact some familiar reporters, do a short interview during the rehearsal break, and then the agency will issue a statement..."

Listening to the president's proficient arrangements, Akina Nakamori nodded:

"Arigato~"

"It's nothing, the agency protecting the artist is what should be done!" Hiroshi Hanamoto said, "Will Naoki-san's side issue a statement?"

"Ah, Naoki-san said he doesn't mind, if necessary, he will let Shuyou cooperate with me to issue a statement..."

Naoki Nagayama didn't care about this. Even if he really took the blame on himself, it didn't matter. After all, he was a director... It seemed many directors had conflicts with reporters.

"That's good~"

Hiroshi Hanamoto nodded. Having a reliable partner actually had many benefits!

This kind of news was actually a way to increase exposure for Akina Nakamori. After chatting a little about the aftermath, Hiroshi Hanamoto let the others go to work and put this matter behind him.

Then he asked Akina Nakamori another thing:

"Akina-chan... in two days, you're going to the United States, right?"

"Hai... because there are no direct flights to Feicheng, so I have to transfer... It'll probably be about three days in advance."

"Three days... then that means you'll be leaving on July 9th~" Hiroshi Hanamoto said, "Then this week, do a good job promoting 'SANDBEIGE -Desert-'..."

"Sigh... If only I could promote the song in the United States too..."

"...... If it's the 11th, you should have just arrived in Feicheng..."

"Then can we do a satellite relay that night?" Feicheng is in the UTC-5 time zone, 14 hours ahead of Tokyo, so when "The Best Ten" is broadcast live, it should be 7:00 AM in Feicheng.

Akina Nakamori said: "It depends on the hotel there... and whether they have the equipment..."

"......" Hiroshi Hanamoto paced twice, "Forget it, I'll communicate and let 'The Best Ten' arrange people!"

"Eh? Go to the United States?"

"Akina-chan's exposure is also very important for 'The Best Ten'!" Hiroshi Hanamoto said, "Currently, the budgets for various programs are very sufficient, spending some money to go to the United States is nothing!"

"Akina-chan, don't worry about it, I'll handle it later!"

Anyway, there is no visa problem between Nihon and the United States, just taking a plane... Economy class actually doesn't cost much...

"Er... Okay~"

Akina Nakamori walked out of the office with some surprise...

Even though she did something out of line, she wasn't lectured, but instead, they actively handled the media side.

And for missing promotional work due to personal reasons (going to a concert with Naoki-san), she wasn't blamed either, but instead, they contacted the TV program team to coordinate the live broadcast...

Until now, she finally had a feeling of turning over and becoming the master. The entire agency was serving her, rather than her earning money for the agency!

"Is this the benefit of becoming a shareholder?"

Thinking this in her head, Akina Nakamori happily prepared to go to rehearsal~ ===== CHAPTER 867 =====
