Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 503 Beyond the pursuit of art

In front of Hanyu Hideki and Liu Luanxiong, the woman who walked upstairs was naturally Zhang Yan.

When Hideki Hanyu came to Xiangjiang, he went to Xiangshan Ao to film a movie, but he didn't expect to come back before he left.

The woman failed to seek advice last time. It is rare for Hanyu Hideki to come back. He will definitely not let the scumbag go easily.

It has to be said that the women in Xiangjiang are all outstanding in terms of mobility and fighting ability.

He has never concealed his desire to have children to compete for favor.

Hanyu Hideki didn't care too much about this.

It's okay to dedicate his strength, but in the short term, he doesn't really want to have children here in Xiangjiang.

Therefore, Zhang Yan is destined to be disappointed this time.

However, since Zhang Yan came back, Hanyu Hideki made an exception and stayed with him for two days.

If I remember correctly, Li Jianxi's father would pass away by the end of the year.

Hanyu Hideki replied, "I'm done."

Hideki Hanyu sat at his desk, thinking carefully about Li Jianxi's call to him.

They still want to rely on cooperation with Elf Entertainment to help it gain a foothold within Samsung, suppress relatives with ulterior motives, and at the same time, support the development strategy of electronic products.

When the woman in a red dress saw Hanyu Hideki coming out, she came up to hold her arm with a face full of reluctance, and asked in a faint tone, "Don't you really need me to go to the airport to see you off?"

To put it bluntly, in this period when there are no ordinary mobile phones and it is difficult to popularize home computers, it is the help of electronic games that has saved the world's endangered semiconductor industry.

"Mr. Li, you're welcome..."

"I'll be right out."

After the establishment of Genie Communication, Li Jianxi greatly improved his prestige within Samsung by winning the order for the electronic pet LCD screen of Genie Entertainment, and was recognized by many senior executives of Samsung.

On June 30, before Hideki Hanyu left Hong Kong, he received a call from an unexpected person.

So he just said, "My father has been ill recently and the current situation in South Korea is turbulent. It is difficult for me to stay away from South Korea. If I have time in the future, I will definitely go to Neon to visit Mr. Hanyu."

In addition to completely suppressing his brothers and sisters, Li Jianxi also needs to get the upper-level elders of Samsung to support him in order for the smooth transfer of power.

Therefore, he declined Li Jianxi's invitation very tactfully.

From South Korea, Samsung heir, Li Jianxi.

The other party wanted to invite Hideki Hanyu to South Korea to conduct a comprehensive inspection of Samsung.

It just so happens that in this period, Elf Entertainment's products are at the top of the world's consumer electronics supply chain.

"No, you just finished filming, go home and rest. I'm not a child, and there are so many people around me, so I won't have to take someone to take me off when I'm on a plane."

Just when Hanyu Hideki was roughly figuring out the cause and effect, there was a sudden knock on the study door.

Zhang Yan's voice came, "Dear, are you done?"

The two of them said this and quickly hung up the phone.

South Korea had just changed and it was a troubled time. Before everything calmed down, he had no intention of running over to join in the fun.

Zhang Yan continued, "It's time for you to set off. Assistant Chiba asked me to inform you that the car is ready."

The chaebols in South Korea were suddenly let off the leash around their necks and were at a loss for a while.

Although Li Jianxi is already the default heir, in order to avoid accidents at critical moments, it is naturally impossible for Li Jianxi to stay away from South Korea and the center of power around the founder.

Now that the founder is bedridden, Samsung will inevitably have to stage the traditional drama of South Korea's wealthy families, a feud over family property.

It can be said that semiconductor manufacturers around the world are now begging Elf Entertainment for orders, which is even more exaggerated than later generations rushing to join Apple's supply chain.

After Hideki Hanyu finished speaking, he began to sort out some planning materials about future development that he had written on his desk, as well as the manuscript of the children's fantasy novel Brigitte.

Therefore, the purpose of why Li Jianxi called him now to ask for cooperation is very clear.

Since joining Samsung, Li Jianxi has bet on the electronics industry.

Li Jianxi called to discuss cooperation.

Furthermore, regarding the cooperation with Samsung, he has not prepared a plan yet, and there will be no substantial progress if he goes suddenly.

Otherwise, if Li Jianxi comes back, his will will be modified if it is not kept intact.

Opening the door, I found Zhang Yan still standing outside.

After putting everything into the briefcase, he picked up the bag and walked out.

Li Jianxi also knew that it was inappropriate for him to invite Hanyu Hideki over suddenly and immediately.

However, after Hanyu Hideki thought about it for a while, he still felt that it was not appropriate to go now.

The background of this phone call from the de facto head of Samsung was that the current leader of South Korea, unable to withstand the pressure at home and abroad due to the turbulent Ban Bo movement, finally announced his acceptance of constitutional reform and ended his rule.

But those with bright minds are already trying to change.

If you want to achieve this goal, you must make some achievements.

"I'm very sorry. I'm about to start a work trip in Europe and the United States. I really can't go to South Korea in a short time. I hope Mr. Li can forgive me."

Therefore, faced with Hanyu Hideki's polite refusal, Li Jianxi would not have any thoughts.

Naturally, it was impossible for Hanyu Hideki to agree to a flight.

After all, Li Meiren has probably already arrived at the airport by this time. If she really takes Zhang Yan there, he will not go to the airport, but to the Shura Field.

"Okay, then I wish you a safe journey and come to Xiangjiang to spend more time with me."

"must……"

Leaving these words behind, Hideki Hanyu left Repulse Bay and went straight to Kai Tak International Airport. After meeting up with Lizhi, he took the Yunshang to start the rest of his journey.

After nearly two days of flying, Hanyu Hideki's plane landed at London Airport.

The reason why I didn’t go directly to Manchester.

Because his visit to the UK this time was not just to inspect Manchester United Club, he had other things to deal with in London.

But this time he came, but he did not stay in the hotel.

Instead, he lived in his own house.

After he started investing in London last year, he asked his subordinates to help him keep an eye on properties.

And it must be in a wealthy area that matches his status.

After all, he has purchased property in the UK, and will inevitably have to deal with people in London in the future. If he, a billionaire, stays in a hotel every time he comes, he will lose face when going out to discuss business.

So after some selection, his subordinates finally helped him buy a property in Kensington.

And it is located in the famous Kensington Palace Gardens district.

Unlike the zombie-infested Kensington of America in later generations, London's Kensington is the complete opposite of a wealthy area.

How to describe this location? The royal family Kensington Palace located here is equivalent to the Summer Palace in Yanjing.

In a block of just a few hundred meters, the residents are either rich or expensive.

If we were to rank London real estate, this area would be equivalent to the lightning rod at the top of the pyramid.

In addition to members of the royal family and British wealthy celebrities, there are also many overseas wealthy people who come here to buy houses.

Later generations of Chelsea's Abramovich and Pharaoh Wang of a certain country in China were all residents of this street.

It is said that the latter spent nearly 800 million Chinese dollars to buy a house here, and the tax alone exceeded 80 million.

This time, Hanyu Hideki bought not one house, but two properties at Nos. 18 and 19 in the Kensington Gardens neighborhood at once.

Interestingly, the original owner of property No. 18 was a direct descendant of the famous Rothschild family, who was also a famous British banker.

After buying the two houses, his subordinates followed Hanyu Hideki's instructions and commissioned designers to redesign and decorate them.

Not only were the two original suites merged together, the house area reached more than 5,000 square meters.

Various modern modifications have also been carried out, such as adding an indoor swimming pool, an underground garage with 16 parking spaces, a heated winter garden, etc.

Of course, after all this trouble, Hanyu Hideki spent a lot of money. From the purchase of the house to the subsequent renovation, he spent 20 million pounds.

But after he moved into the house today, he felt that the money was well spent.

(No. 18~19 style reference·picture)

Although the decoration style based on the original house design is inevitably a bit luxurious, the overall effect is not exaggerated.

And after the modern renovation, at least coming to London will be much more comfortable than staying in a hotel.

As for spending money?

Isn't the purpose of making money for him just to enjoy it? Now that the purpose is achieved, it is enough.

In a large room of the house, surrounded by rows of ancient Roman-style columns, there is a swimming pool made entirely of white marble. The water in the pool is as transparent as gemstones.

Directly above the swimming pool is a beautifully designed transparent glass arch that leads to the roof.

Although the weather in London is a bit cloudy today, the sun shines through the glass, still illuminating the swimming pool.

puff-

With the sound of falling into the water, Li Zhi, wearing a bikini, dived into the pool like a mermaid.

Hanyu Hideki, who was sitting by the swimming pool, had no time to admire the beauty's figure.

Because he was listening to Chiba Kaoru's report.

"Teacher Hanyu, there is news from San Jose that Miss Hitomi Kuroki has just arrived at Moon Lake Manor. Considering the time difference, if Teacher Hanyu wants to contact her, it is best to wait a few more hours.

Tomorrow, July 3rd, you will attend the British Library Association event in the morning, and in the evening you will attend the Neon London Chamber of Commerce dinner hosted by the Neon Embassy in the UK.

Number four..."

After talking about the arrangements before the 4th, Chiba Kaoru said the most important thing about coming to London this time.

"At ten o'clock in the morning on the 5th, you need to hold an organic brand establishment ceremony with the prince and princess at the Vigorous convenience store in West Brompton."

Vigorous convenience store is the British convenience store chain that Hanyu Hideki asked Green Rouse to acquire.

After completing the acquisition, he immediately restructured the convenience store, closed some stores in non-affluent areas, and reduced the size by one-third in one breath.

And the name Vigorous was also renamed after the transformation.

Vigorous means full of vitality, energy, health and strength.

The name was chosen to facilitate cooperation with the prince.

Because the organic brand they want to cooperate with is also called Vigorous, but it will add the suffix of the single product.

By collaborating with Prince on the organic brand, Hideki Hanyu had no intention of making money.

Because in the communication between Green Rouse and the Prince's affiliated fund, both parties have determined that all profits from this organic brand will be invested in environmental protection.

As for the period of operating the brand, the prince’s consultant remuneration will be paid normally.

Hideki Hanyu didn't like that money at all.

He just wants to promote organic brands and take advantage of the latest rise in environmentalism to build Vigorous convenience stores into a very "correct", "healthy" and "high-end" convenience store brand in a sense.

In this case, even without directly borrowing the influence of the British royal family, the popularity of Vigorous convenience stores can be quickly increased.

Then of course, in the name of "high-end", we began to expand overseas.

From the beginning, he had no intention of letting Vigorous convenience stores take the 7-11 route.

In the next few decades, with the development of globalization, the world economy will usher in a major explosion, and consumer demand for high-end products will further surge.

Although the scale of taking the 7-11 route is large.

But the profits of high-end consumption are high enough.

Although before he traveled, the world economy began to decline due to factors such as masks and anti-globalization.

But by then, if the Vigorous convenience store develops smoothly, it will have already made enough money in decades.

For a time traveler, no matter whether it is to cash out from the market or sell it in advance, it is impossible to lose money to him.

"If everything goes well, Hanyu-sensei will be able to take the train to Manchester on July 6th."

After hearing Kaoru Chiba say this, Hideki Hanyu quickly raised his hand and said, "Wait, why don't we take a plane there."

The reason why he asked this was not because he wanted to enjoy himself, but because he felt that taking the train was hard.

After all, it only takes more than an hour to get to Manchester by train from London.

But after he finishes his trip to Manchester, he will fly directly to America.

In this case, if he leaves the plane in London, he will have to take the train back to London to take the plane after finishing his business in Manchester.

Kaoru Chiba immediately explained, "According to the news we have received, Manchester Airport is undergoing expansion and renovation for international flights, and it is temporarily unable to take off and land four-engine large passenger aircraft such as the 747."

"Okay, let's take the train."

The plane couldn't land, and there was nothing Hanyu Hideki could do.

Chiba Kaoru asked again, "This is how Hanyu-sensei's itinerary in the UK has been arranged for the time being. Does Hanyu-sensei have any other explanations?"

"No, you can go and rest." Hanyu Hideki said.

This time, Chiba Kaoru and other entourage also lived in his house, which was just another small house before the merger to facilitate the provision of services to him.

However, after hearing what Hanyu Hideki said, Chiba Kaoru did not leave.

Instead, he lowered his voice and said in Hanyu Hideki's ear, "Teacher Hanyu, there is Miss Zeta Jones..."

When Hideki Hanyu heard the last word, he glanced at the beautiful woman swimming in front of him and frowned slightly.

After thinking about it for a while, he said to Qianye Xun, "Go and find out if she has a performance tonight."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Qianye Xun agreed and went to work.

As soon as the assistant stepped forward, Lizhi in the swimming pool leaned out of the water like a mermaid and lay down on the edge of the swimming pool near Hanyu Hideki.

The beautiful woman tenderly invited Hanyu Hideki, "After we finish talking about the business, come down and play with me."

Hanyu Hideki glanced at his watch and found that it was already past eleven in the morning.

"No more fun. I just ordered the chef to make lunch. Please clean up and let's go have lunch."

Hanyu Hideki said, picked up the towel from the chair and walked towards the swimming pool.

Seeing this, the beauty said "Okay" and swam towards the steps of the swimming pool. After walking out of the swimming pool, she caught the bath towel handed by Hanyu Hideki and put it on her body.

Next, Lizhi, who had dried her body, changed her clothes and went to the restaurant with Hideki Hanyu. When she followed Hanyu Hideki and sat on the huge table, she couldn't help but sigh when she looked at the luxurious decoration of the restaurant and the exquisite tableware on the table.

"This house is really beautiful. It looks like the place where the nobles live in the TV series."

Hanyu Hideki, who was giving instructions to the maid, smiled softly when he heard Lizhi's words.

"This is all made with money, how could it not be beautiful?"

As he said that, he stretched out his hand and pointed behind him, "If you want to talk about nobles, they live in the back."

The direction Hanyu Hideki pointed was Kensington Palace, the residence of Princess Diana.

The two luxury houses he bought seem to be quite big, but compared with the Kensington Palace behind them, they are really nothing.

Lizhi asked curiously, "I heard that a princess and a prince live there. How do they live there?"

"They are human beings, of course, just like us. If you are really curious, I will introduce you to them in a few days."

As soon as Hanyu Hideki said this, Lizhi's eyes lit up instantly.

"Really?"

"Why are you lying to me? I am planning to cooperate with the prince's foundation on an environmentally friendly brand. The establishment ceremony is on the 5th, and they have already confirmed that they will attend."

"You are amazing."

When Lizhi spoke, she looked at Hideki Hanyu with eyes that made her want to swallow the scumbag in one gulp.

That kind of possessive desire for a good man completely takes over a woman's body and mind.

But at this moment, Kaoru Chiba, who had left before, returned and handed a note to Hideki Hanyu.

Above is the performance information for tonight's musical.

The name of the musical is "42nd Street", and the column for the role of the heroine Peggy Sawyer is written by Catherine Zeta-Jones.

However, the venue of the performance is not at the Hay Theater, but at the Theater Royal Drury Lane.

As soon as you look at the name of the show "42nd Street", you will know that it is a show on Broadway in America.

Because Broadway is located near 42nd Street in Manhattan, New York, this place is also called the Theater District.

And "42nd Street" is indeed a classic play from the golden age of Broadway in the s. It tells the legendary story of how the young actress Peggy Sawyer grew from a chorus member to a Broadway star.

The core of the story of this drama is that as long as people have talent and work hard, they can turn their dreams into reality.

This is the serious dream of America.

Looking at America's core values ​​at that time, and looking at it now and later, America is also moving fast enough.

Of course, what is more attractive is actually the daying he is in now.

Whether it was the Pajama Dance in the past or the current West End Cultural Center on 42nd Street, the "Sun Never Sets Empire", America's plays are all being performed.

Stopping complaining in his mind, Hanyu Hideki returned the note to Chiba Kaoru, and then ordered, "Go and book the tickets for me."

"Okay." Qianye Xun agreed and left.

Lizhi heard Hanyu Hideki's words and asked casually, "Are you going out at night?"

"I'm going to watch a show in the West End, mainly to meet a friend. I may come back later in the evening. You don't have to wait for me. Go to bed early."

Hideki Hanyu answered casually.

Although he took Lizhi with him on this trip, it didn't mean that he had to explain everything to him.

"Okay, I know."

Relying on a woman's sixth sense, although Lizhi guessed something, she didn't intend to ask Hanyu Hideki.

After all, the relationship between them is that she needs Hideki Hanyu more, not that Hideki Hanyu needs her more.

No matter what her emotions were, she had feelings for Hanyu Hideki.

But she couldn't guarantee whether Hanyu Hideki had feelings for her.

So don't look at Hanyu Hideki being as gentle as water to her now.

But if she interferes too much, it won't be clear what the other party's attitude will be.

At this time, the maid happened to have already brought today's lunch to the table.

Hideki Hanyu picked up his knife and fork and started to feast on the tender steak.

With a beauty like Li Zhi by his side, how could it be possible if he didn't consume a lot of energy?

Besides, there might be another fierce battle tonight, so we must reserve energy in advance.

After lunch, Hideki Hanyu took a brief rest, called Hitomi Kuroki in America, and then entered the study to continue creating.

It wasn't until Chiba Kaoru came to remind him that he needed to prepare to leave for the West District that he got up to sort out the manuscript and then went to clean up his appearance.

He lives only five kilometers from the theater.

So after leaving the residence in the car, we arrived near the theater not long after.

After getting off the bus, I looked at the time. Seven-fifteen was just right.

But it was still cloudy when we went out, and it started to rain lightly when we got here.

The weather in London is as bad as ever.

After cutting your ticket to enter, Hideki Hanyu’s seat is in the second row on the first floor.

He originally wanted to book a private box next to the side auditorium.

But because the Theater Royal Drury Lane was in disrepair, the private boxes were temporarily closed to the public, so he couldn't buy them even if he wanted to.

After sitting down, he looked at the attendance rate. Although it was still not full, it was at least much better than the Hay Theater where he had a stake.

Not long after we sat down, the show started.

Compared with the last time he watched Pajama Dance, 42nd Street is actually more interesting. After all, it is just a small character's counterattack, an American-style enjoyable novel.

Of course, Catherine Zeta-Jones' performance is also very good.

The former rivals became famous in the West End by starring in this production.

This fashionable and young Zeta Jones is completely different from the image and temperament on the screen in later generations.

One is charming and extremely beautiful.

One is young, beautiful, and charming.

At the end of the performance, the hall lights came on and the actors came on stage to begin the curtain call.

Hideki Hanyu clearly felt that Catherine Zeta-Jones, who was standing at the front, saw him.

He smiled and waved, then stood up and walked outside.

Outside the Theater Royal, Drury Lane.

Hanyu Hideki stood under the eaves, holding an umbrella with a Bentley logo on the handle, but did not open it, just looking at the drizzle in front of him quietly.

Behind him, the audience walked out one by one and left until no one could be seen anymore.

I don’t know how long I waited, but a figure wearing a long black skirt and a windbreaker trotted out from the side door. After searching left and right, I finally locked on Hanyu Hideki.

"Aren't you afraid that I won't come to you?"

The figure walked up to her as she spoke, and it was none other than Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Hearing this, Hideki Hanyu turned around with a puzzled expression, "I just think the rain here is very beautiful. I'm just looking at the rain. What are you talking about?"

"You are obviously waiting for me."

"Wasn't it you who was always looking for me?"

"Then why did you come here to watch the musical?"

"Because I like the play 42nd Street. I haven't seen it on Broadway in New York before. I didn't expect it to be staged in London's West End, so I bought a ticket."

When Hideki Hanyu said this, he almost cried when he saw the beautiful woman's expression.

He immediately smiled and said, "But your performance is very good. Congratulations on finally becoming the heroine."

After saying that, he opened the big black umbrella in his hand and motioned to Catherine.

"Beauty, can I invite you to take a walk in the rain?"

When Catherine Zeta-Jones heard this, her face suddenly turned gloomy, she showed a sweet smile, and came up to hold Hanyu Hideki's arm.

At the same time, he also groaned.

"Hmph! I knew you were here to find me."
-
At midnight, in a house in Chelsea, Hideki Hanyu got up and dressed, preparing to return to Nos. 18-19 Kensington Gardens.

This is Catherine Zeta-Jones’ new rented residence.

After starring in the leading role, and with a grant from Hideki Hanyu, she naturally moved out of her original low-rent house and rented a nice house in the Kensington-Chelsea district.

On the bed behind Hideki Hanyu, Catherine Zeta-Jones, who discovered that the scumbag was about to leave, sat up, and her young body, which was originally covered by a thin quilt, suddenly burst into lust.

"How about not leaving?"

"I have activities tomorrow, and you don't have any spare clothes here."

Hideki Hanyu pointed to his chest. At this location on his shirt, there were two buttons that were bitten off by an excited Catherine Zeta-Jones after entering the house.

Catherine Zeta-Jones asked, "How long will you be staying in London this time?"

Hideki Hanyu replied, "Less than a week."

The girl complained, "Only for such a short time? You promised to take me to Manchester United to watch the game, and now the season is over."

"Sorry, I'm too busy." The scumbag came up with all the excuses.

"Yes, you are the twenty-seventh richest man in the world. How can you have time for a little musical actor like me?"

Catherine Zeta-Jones naturally understands that a man like Hideki Hanyu is not something she can control.

But after all, she gave Hanyu Hideki the most precious thing a girl has, so she still fantasized about some beautiful plots in her heart.

Don't think that foreign girls don't care about this.

Even in later investigations, many girls in Europe and the United States will feel that giving it to the person they spend their whole life with for the first time is the most perfect thing.

Facing the girl's resentful tone, the scumbag who had already put on his shirt turned around, held the girl's face and kissed her.

"I promise that you and I will be in the stands for Manchester United's first league game of the new season."

"You didn't lie to me?"

"I promised you, but I never like to break my promise."

"Then if I believe you once, will you still come to stay with me these days in London?"

"I can't promise you this. After all, my upcoming schedule is fully booked. I will call you if I come."

At this point, Hanyu Hideki put on his suit jacket and said his last words to the girl, "Have a good rest, goodbye."

"You must call me."

The girl's voice came, but the scumbag just waved his hand without looking back.

……

July 3rd.

Hanyu Hideki's participation in library association activities is nothing more than having discussions with authors and interacting with book fans.

And accepted interviews from some reporters.

Because it is an activity of the Library Association, everyone pays more attention to his works.

It's already July, but Hideki Hanyu has not published any new picture books.

So a reporter asked this question.

"Mr. Hanyu, the number of picture books you have published has been decreasing year by year in recent years. Last year you only published two works, and this year you have not published a single picture book. Is it because you have encountered a creative bottleneck? Or is it because your personal wealth has increased and you have lost motivation to create?”

Hideki Hanyu thought for a while, held the microphone in his hand and began to answer.

“There are many factors leading to the decrease in my works, and they cannot be simply attributed to one reason.

I admit that there is a creative bottleneck, but I prefer to call it higher demands on myself.

As for my wealth, I can only say that wealth itself has not made me lose motivation, but I have to spend more time dealing with the problems caused by wealth.

I used to have nothing and could sit at the workbench and create every day, but now I can no longer return to that state.

Of course, I don’t have no new works this year. I will have a picture book premiering in America next month, but this work is more popular and commercial. "

After hearing the answer, the reporter asked with some confusion.

"More commercial? What Mr. Hanyu means is that you have compromised your artistic pursuits for the sake of the market? But your wealth does not make it necessary for you to do so?"

According to reporters, Hideki Hanyu is a writer who won the Kate Greenaway Award and is a direct artist recognized in Europe.

At the same time, he is a billionaire listed in Forbes magazine. He does not need to give up the depth of his works for money like other street writers.

"Before I answer your question, I want to tell you one thing. Last year I was invited to participate in a writer exchange event organized by the American Publishers Association, the Library Association, and Harvard University."

At this point, Hanyu Hideki asked the reporters in front of him, "Do you know what happened at the final exchange meeting of that event?"

Of course, reporters couldn't know, and Hanyu Hideki didn't expect them to answer.

So he continued talking.

“In a venue with thousands of readers, I set up a booth with my work, and then sat there stupidly for several hours. In the end, only one person came to communicate with me, and it was because of my identity as a game designer.

You can't imagine how lost I felt at that time. This incident had such a profound impact on me.

There is certainly nothing wrong with pursuing art in picture books. As children’s spiritual mentors, we should tell the best stories to our children.

But at the same time, I was also thinking, as a successful picture book writer, as a picture book writer who is not so short of money, should I not only pursue art, but also contribute to the promotion of picture books.

So I tried a new story style, which might be less artistic, but more interesting. It might not be as deep, but maybe more people would like it.

Therefore, my attempt this time is not a compromise with the market, but an adventure to let more people see picture books.

If I really want the market, I just need to create in my previous style. Are the sales of my previous works so bad? "

At the end of the sentence, Hanyu Hideki even made a joke.

"If I remember correctly, among the British foreign picture book writers, I am the one with the highest sales volume."

PS: Goodbye...Master.
