Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 165 “Game Base” and “Cute Fairy”

Chapter 165 “Game Base” and “Cute Fairy”

Tokyo.

Hideki Hanyu, who had just returned from his trip to North America, went to Ota District non-stop.

Ota City is at the core of the ‘Tokyo-Yokohama Industrial Zone’.

Also because it belongs to one of the 23 wards of Tokyo, it is the area with the largest potential for future land price appreciation in the “Keihin Industrial Zone”.

Junzhong Kusamura, who was originally the head of the production department of Spirit Entertainment and is now the head of the quality control department, found four pieces of land suitable for building a factory in Ota District.

This kind of costly matter, of course, requires Hideki Hanyu to personally come up with an idea and decide which one to buy.

And on the way to Ota District, Hanyu Hideki always felt a little awkward looking at the new car he was riding in.

He had always wanted to buy a business car before, but he was too busy to do so.

Unexpectedly, Hirohashi Asako bought it for him.

The W126 of the Mercedes-Benz S-class is a special customized model, which adds safety measures such as explosion-proof and bullet-proof.

Obviously, Hirohashi Asako didn’t want to buy this car on a whim, but ordered it a long time ago.

And besides the car, look at the driver who drives for him. He has dark skin, serious expression, and quite capable demeanor.

Through the rear window, a black Toyota can be seen following behind.

There were also two men with similar temperament in the Toyota car, both of whom were bodyguards arranged by Asako Hirohashi.

Before getting into the car, he saw that the three bodyguards were all armed with guns.

Neon law and order is good, but guns are not allowed.

It’s just that gun control is very strict, and there are relatively large restrictions on handguns.

If you want to apply for a gun license, you must pass a rigorous comprehensive review, psychological test, background check, and criminal record check.

Then there is a written test and a live ammunition test to ensure that the use of guns will not cause accidental injury.

For ordinary people, it is extremely difficult to obtain a gun license.

But the three bodyguards beside him are all trained professionals, and their gun licenses are considered work permits for them.

“Hey, Kitahara-san, don’t you think this is a bit exaggerated?”

Hanyu Hideki couldn’t help but ask Kitahara Eri who came with him.

He looked forward and back, and always felt that it was a bit exaggerated to have three bodyguards for him.

But he also understood.

The reason why Hirohashi Asako made such a big fight was not because Yoshioka Shota was frightened by being detained by Yakuza.

Not only him, but also several partners, as well as artists such as Genki Girl and Nakamori Akina, also have bodyguards.

It’s just that there are not as many people as him.

I heard that the security company that provides bodyguards is well-known throughout Asia, and their clients are either rich businessmen or politicians.

However, what is directly proportional to the strength is the expensive price, and they are all charged in US dollars.

Eri Kitahara next to him heard the words and joked, “It’s not an exaggeration at all, so as to bring out the status of President Hanyu.”

“What status, it always feels like someone is watching.”

Hideki Hanyu obviously hasn’t adapted to being a rich man yet.

“It’s fine if Hanyu Santo and the others don’t exist, they are all professionals and won’t disturb your life.”

“we can only do this.”

Saying that, Hanyu Hideki looked at Eri Kitahara next to him, “Kitahara-san, or I’ll give you one.”

Eri Kitahara quickly refused, “I’ll forget it, I’m busy in the company all day, it’s not as good as those of you who need to show your face.”

“Okay.” Hanyu Hideki didn’t force it.

Although she was still not used to being surrounded by three bodyguards, Asako Hirohashi would definitely not agree if she didn’t want to, so she could only get used to it slowly.

After talking about the bodyguard, Hanyu Hideki and Kitahara Eri chatted about work,
After staying in North America for more than ten days, the work of Yunshang Culture has made a lot of progress.

The first is the sales volume of “Elf GAME”. After the release of the fourth issue, it successfully broke through 19 copies.

Although this sales volume is in the neon publishing industry, it is barely considered mid-range.

But for the cloud culture that has never been involved in the publishing industry, and for a start-up magazine, this sales volume is already very good.

Moreover, “Elf GAME” is a pure game magazine unprecedented in the neon publishing industry.

For a new type of publication, this sales volume is even more commendable.

Take the magazine “COMPUTER Communication” affiliated to Tokuma Shoten Co., Ltd., which held the arcade game exhibition before.

Although this magazine has game review content, it is only a small part of the supplement, not to mention not all games are included, and the scoring mechanism is even worse.

This kind of bad score was compiled by Takita Koji, the current editor-in-chief of “Spirit Game”, before he left office.

When Nintendo’s FC goes on the market next year, sales are booming.

After seeing the potential of the game market, Tokuma Shoten Co., Ltd. changed the name of the supplement of “COMPUTER Communication” to “Family Computer Magazine”.

Judging from the name of this supplement, it is known that it is specially set up for FC hosts.

The supplement “Family Computer Magazine” lasted until 1984, when it was completely independent from “COMPUTER Communication”.

Then, with the help of the hot game market, “Family Computer Magazine” magazine began to sell well.

And the game magazines of Tokuma Shoten are very popular, and the competitor ASCII Publishing House can’t sit still.

ASCII Publishing House began to develop a game column in its own magazine “LOGIN”. With the editor’s excellent writing style, the column was quickly welcomed by readers.

The success of the game column has strengthened the confidence of ASCII Publishing House in its transformation.

So ASCII Press launched the weekly “FAMICOM Communication” in 1986.

This magazine is the predecessor of the famous “FAMI Tong” in the neon game industry in the future.

And at this point in time, none of these game magazines have appeared yet.

It can be said that today’s neon publishing industry, in the field of game magazines alone, is still an uncultivated wasteland.

Although the sales volume of “COMPUTER Communication” magazine is high, it is not a pure game magazine.

Although the sales volume of “Elf GAME” is mediocre, it is already the absolute leader of this genre.

And when Koji Takita came up with a leaderboard in the fourth week based on sales, market share, and ratings, the development of “Elf GAME” has become unstoppable.

Previously, in order to obtain sales figures, Yunshang Culture also needed to spend huge labor costs and consulting costs.

But with the emergence of the comprehensive ranking list of “Spirit GAME”, it began to be recognized by players and readers.

Some game manufacturers have already contacted “Elf GAME” to submit sales and arcade machine installation data, just to make their game go further on the ranking list.

Although there are only some small factories, the big factories are still waiting and watching.

However, everyone in “Spirit Game” firmly believes that as the influence of the ranking list grows, those big manufacturers will also take the initiative to report sales for the sake of publicity.

The strategic value of “Spirit GAME” to Spirit Entertainment has also gradually revealed its power after the release of the fourth issue.

With the cumulative sales of more than [-] boards, “Mario Brothers” successfully entered the “Elf GAME” game weekly ranking fourth.

Takita Koji is also very “sensible” and opened an exclusive interview for his game.

Then, the orders from Spirit Entertainment surged, with [-] units booked in a week.

Moreover, in the “Elf Show” direct store, the arcade consumption of “Mario Brothers” has almost increased by 30.00%.

Hearing Kitahara Eri’s words, Hanyu Hideki couldn’t help exhorting.

“Tell editor-in-chief Takita that the data and ratings of the leaderboard must be fair and just, and we cannot deliberately increase the ranking and evaluation just because it is our own game.”

“Hanyu-san, don’t worry, the editor-in-chief Takita has already mentioned this to me. He believes that if the leaderboard of the spirit game is to be recognized by everyone and have credibility, it must be objective and fair.”

Eri Kitahara said this and made a suggestion, “I think we should separate it from Spirit Entertainment while the magazine is just established.”

“segmentation?”

Hanyu Hideki fell into deep thought, he probably guessed what Eri Kitahara meant.

Originally, he started this “Elf Game” just to help Elf Entertainment to promote the game.

So the name “Spirit GAME” is to make readers think of the game of Elf Entertainment.

But who would have thought that if you just set up a magazine, you will become a leader in the industry if you are not careful.

Now the name is easy to associate, but it has become a disadvantage.

It’s easy to feel that “Spirit Game” is biased in its reports and evaluations of Elf entertainment games.

This is not a good thing for “Spirit Game” or Spirit Entertainment.

Eri Kitahara’s suggestion is actually very reasonable. Since Elf Entertainment is still weak and has not attracted everyone’s attention, it is best to split it now.

After the split, the better the development of “Elf GAME”, the greater the help to Elf Entertainment.

There is no need for special care at all, just a little more reporting and a little more publicity is enough.

What’s more, you can’t show favoritism, but secretly favoritism is not enough.

Thinking of this, Hideki Hanyu began to explain to Eri Kitahara.

“To register a new publishing house, it will no longer belong to Yunshang Culture, and it will be controlled by Hanyu Investment.”

Hanyu Hideki felt that since the division was going to be done, it should be done more thoroughly.

“It will be announced on the next issue of Elven GAME. We will change the name, remove all comic content, and change the name of the magazine to…”

Speaking of this, Hideki Hanyu recalled the experience of “famitsu” not being recognized in overseas markets in later generations.

He felt that if the new magazine wanted to be a booster for Fairy Entertainment, it couldn’t limit its influence to Neon itself.

A name came to mind, “Let’s call it ‘Game Base’.”

Hearing this, Eri Kitahara read softly, “Game Base, is it a game base?”

“That’s right, let this magazine become a base for gamers from all over the world!” Hideki Hanyu said boldly.

“The whole world? Hanyu-san’s ambition is really big. Editor-in-Chief Takita will probably be very excited to hear Hanyu-san’s words.”

“Then let the editor-in-chief Takita let it go. Neon is just the beginning, and there are still bigger overseas markets waiting for him to conquer.”

Hideki Hanyu, who just made a fortune, is now in high spirits.

“Okay, after I go back, I will arrange the division and revision with editor-in-chief Takita, but Hanyu Investment needs Yata-san to cooperate with us.”

“Contact Sanyou Accounting Firm directly. Yada-san is still in North America, and he no longer works for Sanyou.”

“I see.”

Eri Kitahara knew that Hideki Hanyu had taken Yoshihiro Yada to North America, but she didn’t know what they did.

Now it seems that it is not a trivial matter for Yada Ryohiro to resign directly and stay in North America and not come back.

She remembered that Hideki Hanyu said just now that the new magazine would no longer add manga, so she hurriedly asked.

“What about the three comics? Are they also published by the new publishing house?”

“That’s not necessary. Those comics are considered to be the game peripherals of Elf Entertainment. Elf Entertainment will establish a new Elf Publishing House and create a new comic magazine. The name will be…”

Hideki Hanyu thought about it, and found that the three serialized comics are all cute and humorous in everyday style.

He decided to use CUTE, the word cute.

“Let’s call it ‘Spirit Cute’. Remember to ask Editor-in-Chief Takita to notify you in the new issue of the magazine.”

“I’ll write it down.” Eri Kitahara agreed.

“By the way, it’s still the same as before. The copyright belongs to Yunshang Culture, and it is handed over to the publisher for use in an authorized manner.”

In Hideki Hanyu’s club, the copyrights of all ideas proposed by him, whether it’s comics or games, belong to Yunshang Culture.

The production of games, publication of comics, and peripheral sales are all authorized by Yunshang Culture.

Moreover, the authorization still has a time limit, which is usually signed once every three years.

If there is no accident, it is the signing of the internal left-handed and right-handed.

But once there is a problem with the following clubs, Hideki Hanyu can take back the copyright within three years at most.

This is actually his last insurance for the club, and he really wants to take back the copyright.

It is estimated that the following clubs have lost control.

In the short time the vehicle was driving, Hideki Hanyu and Eri Kitahara completed the reorganization of Yunshang Culture.

With the continuous development of the club, the club also needs to adjust according to the actual situation.

And this kind of reorganization is very common in any club.

However, the two of them didn’t know that their arrangement with a few words was enough to change the fate of many people.

In the original world, the unknown Koji Takita jumped from the editor-in-chief of a magazine to the head of an independent publishing house.

The comic studio that was originally responsible for providing leftover comics for “Spirit Game” has also directly expanded into the editorial department of the new comic publishing house.

Some people will not adapt to this change, and eventually disappear in the crowd.

Some people can seize the opportunity and jump up.

Just like Elf Entertainment established a new publishing house to release “Elf Cute”.

As a specialized comic magazine, the number of serialized chapters is naturally more than that of previous game magazines.

Therefore, the manga studio was seriously understaffed and had to recruit a large number of temporary manga assistants.

The recruitment information soon appeared in the relevant clubs of the university.

A college student majoring in fine arts at the School of Art of Neon University, who aspires to become a cartoonist, saw this recruitment information in the comic club.

With the encouragement of the seniors in the club, he decided to apply for this kind of temporary manga assistant who doesn’t need much time, can exercise his ability, and can also take care of his studies.

But what the college student didn’t expect was that Eri Kitahara, who was in charge of the recruitment that day, felt that the “Kung Fu” he tried to draw was more suitable than the original manga studio.

Eri Kitahara tried to ask the college student, “Would you like to be the main writer of this kung fu?”

“Chief writer!”

The college student didn’t expect that he just came to apply for a temporary manga assistant, and ended up as the chief writer.

“But I haven’t graduated yet.” The college student replied.

“What year are you in college?” Kitahara Eri asked.

“Third grade.” The college student replied.

“You can apply for an internship in the fourth grade, and you can apply to the school for an early internship.” Eri Kitahara suggested.

“Please let me think about it.”

“I will only give you half a day. If there is no reply in the afternoon, I will consider it as giving up.”

“Ok.”

The college student returned to school and told the seniors of the club about it.

The senior persuaded him excitedly on the spot.

“Hurry up and agree, even if you take a break from school, you have to agree. Do you know that ordinary comic practitioners may not be able to be the chief writer for the rest of their lives? That comic magazine must be very short of people, and this kind of opportunity will never be missed again!”

Hearing what the senior said, the college student went to Yunshang Culture without even applying for an internship, and accepted Eri Kitahara’s invitation.

“Welcome to join the cute elf, someone will take you to apply for entry.”

Eri Kitahara still values ​​talents very much. Although the young man in front of him is immature, his manga talent has been fully revealed.

“Thank you.”

The college student expressed his thanks a little shyly, and prepared to apply for employment.

“Your painting.”

Eri Kitahara suddenly called the other party to stop, and handed over the draft of the other party’s trial drawing.

The college student hurriedly took over the drawing.

At the bottom of the drawing, the name of the college student is also written.

Qingshan Gangchang.

……

Of course, the expansion of the manga studio is still in the future. Let us turn our attention back to the day when Hideki Hanyu went to Ota District.

Hideki Hanyu, who had been dealing with business affairs with Eri Kitahara, finally arrived at the place where the first piece of earth energy was located.

After the car stopped, bodyguards helped him open the door.

After he got out of the car, one bodyguard followed him all the time, while the other two stayed a little away, paying attention to the surrounding situation.

“Hanyu-san really looks like a big guy on TV right now.”

Seeing this posture, Eri Kitahara couldn’t help but joke.

Hanyu Hideki smiled wryly upon hearing this.

“I still feel that Asako-san is a bit exaggerated. Yoshioka-san was completely accidental that time. Didn’t he be fine before?”

“Just get used to it.”

“That’s the only way to go, let’s look at the land first.”

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he asked Kusamura Juntada who got off from the car behind, “Kusamura-san, is this the place?”

“Yes, the approximate range is…”

Junchu Kusamura pointed to a piece of land in front of them, and began to introduce detailed information such as area and price.

Hideki Hanyu saw that there were still a lot of old factory buildings on the land in front of him, so he asked Junzhong Kusamura.

“Is there anyone else in there?”

“Already moved away, before…” Junchu Kusamura leaned closer to Hanyu Hideki’s ear and whispered a few words.

Only then did Hideki Hanyu know that there was an ancestral factory that produced fabrics here before.

However, due to poor management, it is completely operating half-dead.

Later, a manufacturer took a fancy to this piece of land and wanted to buy the factory area, but the factory owner was unwilling to sell it because it was an ancestral property.

Seeing that the manufacturer couldn’t move his mouth, he entrusted the “Sumiyoshikai”, known as one of the three major organizations of neon, to help.

And the ‘Sumiyoshikai’ made a quick move, and soon used means to get the original factory owner to agree.

But when the ‘Sumiyoshikai’ was about to hand over the land, the manufacturer went bankrupt due to an accident.

Then the land fell into the hands of the ‘Sumiyoshikai’.

Although the previous manufacturer paid part of the land acquisition fee, it still failed to offset the cost of the ‘Sumiyoshikai’.

The most important thing is that because this piece of land is dedicated to industry, the ‘Sumiyoshikai’ has no way to develop it by itself, so it can only sell it.

So for Hideki Hanyu, he was actually doing a land deal with the ‘Sumiyoshikai’.

“President Hanyu, the factory building on this land can actually be used after remodeling. Buying this land can save a lot of construction time for the factory, and the transportation here is also convenient. We…”

When Junchu Kusamura was introducing Hideki Hanyu, the bodyguard closest to Hideki Hanyu suddenly blocked Hanyu Hideki.

While the bodyguard was moving, he also said to Hideki Hanyu in English, “Sir, please be careful!”

When Hanyu Hideki heard these words, he saw two other bodyguards approaching him.

And while approaching, his hand has already reached into the clothes.

Hanyu Hideki was wondering what happened, when he heard a voice coming from a distance.

“Who am I? It turns out that Mr. Caocun came to see the land again. Let’s make a decision quickly. There are many people who want to buy this land recently?”

Following the sound, Hideki Hanyu saw a man in December who was still wearing a floral shirt with short sleeves and clogs on his feet, walking towards them with his head shaking.

And behind this man, there are several men in suits.

At this moment, Junchu Kusamura whispered in Hideki Hanyu’s ear, “Chairman Hanyu, he is Kazushi Ogoshi, and Sumiyoshi will be the leader of this land.”

While Junchu Kusamura was speaking, Ogoshi and Shi also noticed Hideki Hanyu, and his eyes lit up immediately.

Then, stepping on clogs, he ran over and asked Hanyu Hideki excitedly.

“Writer Hanyu? It’s really a writer Hanyu! I like your miraculous snack shop the most. I bought every book. Last time you held a book signing in Tokyo, you even went to line up, but it didn’t turn out to be my turn. Why is it not serialized recently, and…”

Facing the leader of the ‘Sumiyoshikai’ who wore short sleeves and stepped on clogs in the 5-degree Celsius weather, he looked like he was in his 30s, but liked his children’s book.

Hanyu Hideki really didn’t know what expression to make.

But Okoshi and Shi didn’t wait for Hanyu Hideki to answer, and then shouted at the subordinates who were still dawdling in the distance.

“You idiots! Didn’t you see that this is my favorite writer! Why don’t you come over and say hello?”

But after shouting, Dayue and Shi found that their subordinates were all looking at Hideki Hanyu with apprehension on their faces.

Ogoshi Kazushi, who was excited because he saw a writer he liked before, finally found out.

The three bodyguards had grim expressions, and their hands were all inside their suits, vaguely protecting Hanyu Hideki behind them.

Dayue and Shi, who fought all the way up from the bottom, immediately realized that these three people were definitely not the kind of people who would talk nonsense with them.

Ogoshi and Shi felt that if he dared to be unfavorable to Hideki Hanyu, the other party would definitely take out the guy directly and put him down first.

Hanyu Hideki felt that the atmosphere was not right, and knew that Ogoshi and Shi had no ill intentions towards him.

Then he waved his hands at the bodyguards around him and explained in English, “Don’t be nervous, he has no malicious intentions.”

Hearing this, the three bodyguards immediately took their hands out of their clothes, and then silently backed away a few steps.

But even though Hanyu Hideki said it was fine, they still stared at those Yakuza members cautiously.

“Writer Hanyu, where did you find your bodyguard? It looks really powerful.”

The familiar Ogoshi and Shimi Hanyu Hideki’s bodyguards retreated and came up again,
“Ogoshi-san, I’m here to see the land.” Hanyu Hideki didn’t answer the other party’s words, but went straight to the point.

“It turns out that Kusamura-san looked at the land for writer Hanyu? My previous figure is already the most favorable price. If you agree, you can go through the formalities immediately, and I guarantee that you will not have any worries.”

Although he likes Hideki Hanyu’s works very much, when it comes to business, Kazushi Okoshi immediately becomes shrewd and has no intention of making concessions.

“Okay, Caocun-san will trade with Dayue-san next, and I have other land to look at, so don’t bother.”

With a price of more than 20 billion yen, Hideki Hanyu agreed without hesitation.

If it were in the past, he might have to worry about how to get the money with a loan of more than 100 billion.

But after making a fortune in North America, this little money is nothing.

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left with the people, not intending to get in touch with the extreme people.

“Author Hanyu, hurry up and serialize, I’m still waiting for the next story.”

Seeing that Hideki Hanyu was about to leave, Dai Yue and Shi hurriedly yelled.

But after Hideki Hanyu’s convoy drove away, this guy seemed to remember something and shouted angrily.

“I’m such an idiot, I forgot to get author Hanyu’s autograph just now.”

“However, author Hanyu said that he wanted to buy this land. The next time he trades with Kusamura, he will bring the book and ask him to help Mr. Hanyu sign it.”

“I’m so smart.”

After Dayue and Shi talked to themselves, they turned their heads and saw those younger brothers still standing in the distance, and immediately shouted angrily.

“Stupid! Three bodyguards scared you like this.”

“But they have guns!” said a younger brother.

“The face of Sumiyoshikai has been lost by you. There is nothing to be afraid of guns. There are so many of us. You idiots will give me all when you go back…”

Dayue and Shi’s annoyed shouts drifted far away.

In Hideki Hanyu’s car, Eri Kitahara, who was worried about encountering a goku, let out a long sigh of relief.

“I didn’t expect to meet a member of the Yakuza, it was really scary.”

Hideki Hanyu said with a smile, “Don’t worry Kitahara-san, the yakuza that can stay in Tokyo now will basically not mess around.”

“But I heard that when they expropriate land, they will use many bad methods.”

“Other places may do it too much, but in Tokyo, the main thing is harassment, and the compensation is often very generous, and the real estate company will be more stingy.”

“How does Hanyu-san know so much?”

“Have Kitahara-san forgotten that my job is to be a writer? Sometimes when I look for material, I will learn more.”

“Is that so?” Eri Kitahara said suspiciously.

Of course, Hideki Hanyu couldn’t say that he knew about it from the news in his previous life, so he immediately changed the subject.

“I thought bringing bodyguards was a little troublesome before, but I didn’t expect to use them immediately.”

“Yeah, Hanyu-san’s bodyguards are really powerful, those members of the Yakuza are too scared to approach.”

“Even if you join the yakuza, it’s mostly for the sake of living. Who would easily go all out?”

After Hideki Hanyu finished speaking, he leaned forward and said in English to the bodyguard driver, “Marco, thank you for your protection just now.”

Although these bodyguards are all Neon people, they all communicate with them in English, and they use English names as well.

Hideki Hanyu didn’t know why.

Marco, who helped him drive, was the captain of the three bodyguards.

“That’s what we should do.” Marco replied flatly.

After driving for a while, the convoy arrived at the second site.

Junchu Kusamura came over and asked Hideki Hanyu, “Chairman Hanyu, the land just now is enough for us to increase production, so don’t look at this one?”

Hanyu Hideki waved his hand indifferently, “It’s okay, let’s take a look first.”

If the output is several million, the land just now must be enough.

But if the calculation is based on tens of millions, that piece of land is definitely not enough.

The boss, Hideki Hanyu, wanted to see it, so Junchu Kusamura had no choice but to introduce information about the second piece of land.

Compared with the land just now, the price of this land is more expensive, more than 20 yen per square meter.

The land area is larger, exceeding [-] square meters.

Moreover, the original buildings on the land were demolished.

If Spirit Entertainment wanted to build a factory here, it would take a lot of time just to build it.

However, Hideki Hanyu didn’t care about the construction time at all, and decided to take the land after hearing the price.

Not for anything else, just because this is the Tokai area of ​​Ota City.

If I remember correctly, when the bubble economy just started, the average land price of industrial land in this place would exceed 70 yen.

At its peak, the average price exceeded 110 million yen.

So don’t think that the unit price is not as good as Ginza or something, but the increase is not bad at all.

He decided.

The current production area of ​​Elf Entertainment has been transformed into a hardware R&D center,

The piece of land bought from ‘Sumiyoshikai’ just now is used to produce peripheral products and toys.

The large land in the East China Sea is used to produce electronic products.

For the production line, you must buy the latest and best.

Because after the land price rose, he sold the land, and wanted to dismantle the production line and send it to Huaxia for the new factory.

After making up his mind, Hideki Hanyu told Junzhong Kusamura to contact the seller to go through the formalities.

Then he rushed to the location of the last two pieces of land without stopping.

However, although the last two pieces of land are in good locations, they are somewhat special.

These two pieces of land are very close to each other, but because there is a large piece of residential land in the middle, they are cut into two pieces.

The most important thing is that there is a polar organization that wants to take down the land in the middle, and then connect the two lands into one.

If Hanyu Hideki wants to buy these two pieces of land, he must deal with the Yakuza organization.

He didn’t want to cause side effects, so he finally decided to give up.

After all, those two lands alone were enough for the elves to entertain.

After the trip to Ota District was over, Sanyou Accounting Firm cooperated with Junzhong Kusamura about the land purchase, so he didn’t have to worry too much.

After all, for him, there is still a lot of work waiting.

It was already the end of 1982, whether it was Yunshang Painting or Yunshang Culture, there were a lot of things to be busy.

It starts with the traditional reception of the neon corporate era.

Yunshang Culture is okay here, and there are not too many related parties to deal with.

But Yun Shang Pictures is different. Being in the most relationship-hungry place in the entertainment industry, with a wide business scope, there are many relationship parties to deal with.

Fortunately, Hideki Hanyu has gradually retreated behind the scenes. Except for a few important parties, it is usually enough for a few other partners to come forward.

But even just dealing with important partners is enough to keep Hideki Hanyu busy.

In addition to socializing and entertaining, he has other work to do.

For example, today, it was already eleven o’clock in the evening, and he was still in the recording studio of Yunying Painting headquarters.

Helped Vitality Girls to record their third single “Happy Battle”.

This song is a single by Morning Musume.

The song is good, but unfortunately it was released in 2013, the popularity of Morning Musume has fallen to the bottom, and the sales are very bleak.

However, the joyful and uplifting style of this song is very suitable for energetic girls.

Accompanying Hideki Hanyu for the recording was also Mimori Aizhou, the manager of Vitality Girl.

Hanyu Hideki recorded songs, and Aizhou Mimori did some auxiliary work of serving tea and buying dinner.

When it was one o’clock in the morning, Hideki Hanyu pressed the communicator when he heard the girl singing the last line of the lyrics.

“OK, it’s over!”

“Yeah! It’s finally over.”

The three girls jumped up and down happily, celebrating that the recording of the single was finally completed.

After all, it’s the end of the year, and the boss, Hideki Hanyu, is so busy that he doesn’t touch the ground. As a phenomenon-level idol group, they will only be busier than Hideki Hanyu.

In fact, before recording the single “Happy Battle”, the three of them had been in the recording studio for two consecutive nights.

Because in addition to releasing a single at the end of the year, their first album “Vitality · Fly” will also be released immediately.

In addition to the three singles produced by Hideki Hanyu, the other eight songs on the album were provided by other musicians.

Therefore, during the recent period, Vitality Girl runs publicity during the day, participates in shows, participates in award presentations, and records albums in the recording studio at night, and only sleeps for three or four hours a day.

Now that they have finished recording the last song of the album, “Happy Battle”, they can finally sleep well at night, so it’s no wonder they are unhappy.

“Okay, don’t be too happy, let’s go back to sleep quickly, because we still have to work during the day.”

Hanyu Hideki said to the three little ones.

“Mr. Hanyu, let’s go first.” The three walked out obediently.

But when he was about to leave, Yoko Minano saw that Hideki Hanyu hadn’t moved, so she asked with concern, “Mr. Hanyu isn’t leaving?”

Hideki Hanyu pointed to the manager Aishu Mimori who also stayed beside him, “Let the driver take you back first, Aishu-san and I still have something to say.”

“Okay, Mr. Hanyu also needs to rest early.” Yoko Minano did not forget to remind her again.

“Thank you Yoko-chan for your concern, I will.”

Seeing the three members of the Genki Girls leaving, Hideki Hanyu turned to look at Mimori Aizhou.

“Aizhou-san, can the vitality girl still spare time at the end of the year?”

“Does President Hanyu want to arrange something for them?” Mimori Aizhou asked.

“The artistes of Yunshangyieng have achieved good results this year. I plan to arrange a local trip for everyone to relax at the end of the year. After all, I have been busy.”

As soon as Hideki Hanyu finished speaking, Mimori Aizhou smiled wryly and shook her head.

“President Hanyu, travel and relaxation, it is still possible in the next year, but it will definitely not be possible in the past year.”

“Why?” Hideki Hanyu asked.

“Because in addition to releasing singles and albums, they also need to cooperate with Yunshang Arts to promote the school year calendar photo album.”

“Is that all?” Hideki Hanyu felt that if it was just to promote the photobook, it wouldn’t take long.

“Of course it’s more than that. They also have two small performances, as well as the music festivals of major TV stations and the record awards. NHK has already notified that the girl with vitality will attend the red and white song festival.”

After hearing these itineraries, Hanyu Hideki felt dizzy.

Especially because of the Neon Disc Awards on TBS TV, because the time of the live broadcast coincides with the time of the Red and White Song Festival of NHK TV.

If the Vitality Girl wants to participate in two, she will definitely have to run with other senior singers on New Year’s Eve.

But this is not over yet, Aizhou Meishou went on to say,
“Minister Yoshioka and YM Records are already planning the first large-scale concert of Genki Girls, and the venue is Budokan.”

“Are you going to the Budokan?”

Hanyu Hideki was surprised, but also took it for granted.

In the world of neon music, Budokan is a “sacred place” and a symbol of the “highest hall”.

All neon musicians will perform at the Budokan as the most important goal.

Whether or not he has performed at the Budokan seems to be a measure of a singer’s value.

Vitality Girl went to Budokan to hold a concert when her first album was released, which may not be a big deal in later generations.

After all, those combinations that Akimoto Yasushi made almost ruined the Budokan.

But for now, it’s still a big deal.

But with their popularity, it is only natural to hold a concert at the Budokan.

“So during the end of the year, it is impossible to have any time to travel and relax.”

Aizhou Meishou did not forget to remind.

“It’s the same with Akina Nakamori. In addition to promoting the photobook of the school year calendar, they also have to participate in the Red and White Song Concert, and I heard from Iijima-san that Warner Pioneer is planning to release a mini-album recently, and there will be a New Year’s performance after that.”

Hearing the dense itinerary, Hanyu Hideki said with emotion.

“It seems that my prediction last year has come true. After debuting, these girls will not even think about going home during the New Year’s Eve.”

“If you are popular, you will be troubled by being popular, and if you are not popular, you will be troubled by not being popular. But for them, it is better to be red.”

Mimori Aizhou knew that their chairman, Hanyu, had always been generous in his work.

Several artists make money. Although the contract stipulates that they can’t get a share, there must be a large bonus waiting for Yun Shang Hua.

For those behind-the-scenes staff, of course, they also hope that the artists will become more popular.

After all, the more artists earn, the more bonuses they get.

“Since there was no way to travel a year ago, let’s wait until the next year. It’s getting late, so let’s go too.”

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he took Aizhou Mimori and left Yunying Pictures.

Considering that it happened to be on the way, Hanyu Hideki took Mimori Aizhou with him.

Aizhou Mimori lives in an apartment in Shibuya, just like Genki Maiden.

That is to say, he rented it before, bought it for redecoration, and rented it to the apartment building of Yunying Painting.

“President Hanyu, thank you for sending me back.”

After arriving at the apartment downstairs, Mishou Aizhou thanked her politely.

“You’re welcome, good night.”

“Good night.”

Watching Aizhou Mimori leave, Hanyu Hideki’s eyes fell on the apartment upstairs that was still the same on the outside, but had been redecorated on the inside.

Unconsciously, he remembered the time when he lived here before.

A down-and-out idol who worries about rent, and a dance teacher who goes to work every day.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help murmuring softly.

“It’s only two years, but it feels like a long time.”

I am very sorry that some of the previous content has been modified due to a mistake in checking the information.

The organizer of the Arcade Game Show was changed from “Famitsu” to “COMPUTER Communication”.

The background of the editor-in-chief of the game magazine Koji Takita has also been revised, from the former deputy editor of “Famitsu” to the editor-in-chief of the supplement of “COMPUTER Communication”.
