Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 810 Admiration and Love
After talking about the Storm Advertising with Shota Yoshioka, Hideki Hanyu also left Hirohashi Asako's study.

As soon as he went downstairs, he saw Suho Ikuo walking out of Hirohashi Asako's mother's room.

This man, who is well connected with both the black and white worlds and is known as a big shot in the entertainment industry, now looks depressed, sad, and even a little pitiful.

That’s right, the big boss who is usually feared by everyone in the entertainment industry, now has an expression like a little child.

It can be seen that she must have been humiliated by Hirohashi Asako's mother, who is also her sister.

This is normal. It was because of Suho Ikuo's mistake that indirectly led to the death of Hirohashi Asako's father, although Suho Ikuo has made up for it many years ago.

Hirohashi Asako's mother no longer refused to see her younger brother.

But the emotional rift between each other is not so easy to heal.

However, Hanyu Hideki speculated that for Ikuo Suho, the current state of getting along with his sister might be something he enjoys.

Being scolded a few times for no reason and seeing my sister's sour face is also a kind of atonement. It is much better than never having any contact with her forever.

And although Hirohashi Asako's mother had a bad attitude, she might have let it go in her heart a long time ago, and she was just pretending to be cold and hard on the surface.

At this time, Ikuo Suho also saw Hideki Hanyu.

The bitterness on his face disappeared immediately, and he stepped forward to greet him, "President Hanyu, long time no see."

"Good afternoon, President Suho." Hanyu Hideki nodded slightly.

After saying that, he looked towards the living room and asked, "I wonder if President Zhou Fang has time? I have something I want to talk to you about."

"Since President Hanyu has invited me, of course I have time."

In response to Hideki Hanyu's invitation, Ikuo Suho was quite enthusiastic.

He really has to be enthusiastic. As a person who has some connections in both the black and white worlds, Ikuo Suho has a clear understanding of Hanyu Hideki's current strength.

If we say that he relies on the support of the white world and the background of the underworld to bully others in the entertainment industry and is called a big shot in the entertainment industry, then...

The Hanyu Hideki who is younger than his son is himself both the "white world" and the "black world".

The power of the official upper echelons of Japan has developed by leaps and bounds in recent years.

Taking advantage of the vacuum left by the reshuffle of the upper echelons in the Recruit bribery case, he ate a large amount of the cake in one bite.

Now, the Special Investigation Department of the Tokyo District Public Prosecutors Office has begun a new bribery investigation. Given Hanyu Hideki's strength, he will definitely not miss this opportunity and will definitely be able to reap a lot of benefits.

Obviously, Suho Ikuo's connections in the white world were too weak, and it was impossible for him to know that the Honma bribery case was actually a setup by Hanyu Hideki.

However, not knowing this did not affect Suoh Ikuo's fear of Hanyu Hideki at all.

After all, apart from the white way, what Suoh Ikuo is most proud of is his background in the yakuza.

After all, whether it is intimidating artists or acting recklessly in the circle, what they rely on most of the time is actually their connections with the underworld.

At this point, Ikuo Suho asked himself if he knew Hanyu Hideki very well.

Although Hideki Hanyu is not like him, he has some connection with the Yakuza.

But whether it is the Xidu Group or the Pachinko Copyright Business Alliance, they both have great influence on the dark side of neon.

The pachinko industry, in particular, has always been an important means of making money for the Neon Yakuza.

However, the Pachinko Copyright Business Alliance has undoubtedly become the boss of the industry by means of capital monopoly, collusion, bribery, alliances and other means.

Although Hideki Hanyu is not directly involved, the company he indirectly controls is the initiator of the Pachinko Copyright Business Alliance and has a great say in the alliance.

Of course, if we have to say that it has a direct connection with the Yakuza.

The power of the Inagawa Group in the Northeast region basically depends on the instructions of Hideki Hanyu.

The Sumiyoshi-kai, which has recently experienced internal strife and is as powerful as the Yamaguchi-gumi, has an unclear relationship with its new acting president, Kazufumi Ogoshi, who has an unclear relationship with Hanyu Hideki.

Although there is no evidence, everyone is saying that the rapid growth of Daikoshi and Shi in recent years is due to the support of Hanyu Hideki behind them.

Thinking of this, Suho Ikuo remembered that what really made him in awe of Hanyu Hideki was actually Hanyu Hideki's terrifying capital.

In today's Japanese society, money makes the world go round.

But today, Hideki Hanyu is one of the richest people in Japan.

Rich and powerful.

In front of such a Hideki Hanyu, the title of "big boss" given to Ikuo Suho by people in the circle is not worth mentioning at all.

Therefore, when he and Hanyu Hideki sat down in the living room, he immediately took the initiative to ask, "President Hanyu, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Hanyu Hideki said with a kind smile and a relaxed tone.

"President Zhou Fang, it's actually nothing important. It's just that Kyoko told me earlier that her contract with President Zhou Fang will expire next year. After that, she wants to concentrate on running the agency and reduce her activities in the entertainment industry."

This time, Hanyu Hideki and Suho Ikuo are looking for Koizumi Kyoko.

Before, Xiao Yaojing had a contract with Suho Ikuo. Because of Hirohashi Asako's face, he knew that Xiao Yaojing had independent ideas, but he did not take the initiative to ask Suho Ikuo to terminate the contract on behalf of Xiao Yaojing.

But now that the contract was about to end, he no longer had any concerns.

Saying these words to Suho Ikuo is just a greeting in advance.

Suoh Ikuo kept his expression unchanged and continued to ask, "President Hanyu wants Miss Kyoko to retire?"

Hanyu Hideki waved his hand and said, "That's not the case. If she wants to continue her activities, I have no objection, but the premise is that she has the autonomy."

"I understand." Ikuo Suho understood what Hideki Hanyu meant.

And then he said politely, "Then I will find time to transfer Miss Jinriko's agency to Yunshang Entertainment."

Upon hearing this, Hanyu Hideki immediately explained, “President Zhou Fang, you misunderstood. I have no special requirements for whether Kyoko’s office is in the Burning Department or the Cloud Department.

Moreover, she has always cooperated with President Suho's Burning Department, so it is best for her to let the agency continue to stay in the Burning Department.

However, I hope that Kyoko’s shareholding ratio can reach the level of a normal franchise agency.”

Seeing that Hanyu Hideki did not use his power to bully others, but communicated with him in a very normal way, Ikuo Suho finally felt relieved.

He thought for a moment and asked, "If that's the case, how about increasing Miss Kyoko's share of the firm to 70%?"

Hanyu Hideki nodded in satisfaction. "Okay, I will arrange for my assistant to contact President Suoh and sign a share purchase contract at the market price."

Upon hearing this, Ikuo Suho said generously, "No need to buy, just a few shares, I..."

Who would have thought that Hanyu Hideki interrupted and said, "Let's talk business. The Yunshang Department and the Burning Department have cooperated for many years, and I am a good friend of Qianzi-san. I don't want us to have any grudges because of some trivial matters."

When Hanyu Hideki said this, Suho Ikuo couldn't help but admire him.

After all, if he were Hanyu Hideki, with such power and wealth, he would definitely use his power to coerce others when he wanted to get something, and he would never handle things like Hanyu Hideki did.

"Okay, then I will arrange for someone to connect with President Hanyu's assistant."

"Thank you, President Suho."

……

After talking about Koizumi Kyoko, Hanyu Hideki and the other man, who had no plans to leave in the short term, sat in the living room and chatted, talking about things inside and outside the circle.

Soon, Yoshioka Shota and Ito Shinsuke also joined in. The chat lasted until the maid came to remind them that dinner was ready. Only then did they stop chatting and head towards the restaurant one by one.

Hanyu Hideki was the last one to get up, but before he could stand up, he saw the outer door being pushed open and two little girls walked in from the front and back.

It was Saori Hirohashi and Rie Miyazawa who were returning home from school.

The two of them are now studying at Platinum Middle School and go to and from school together.

Guangqiao Qianzi's house is a real school district house. Her two children don’t have to take the school bus to go to school, they can just walk.

Of course, for safety reasons, there are also bodyguards secretly providing "complete" security to protect the safety of the two children.

In fact, Hirohashi Asako had previously bought a piece of land near the Shirokane campus of Meiji Gakuin University and had been planning to build a new house.

It’s just because his mother is used to living here, and for the convenience of the two children going to school, no action has been taken for the time being.

When the two children entered the house, they were stunned to find so many guests. Then they hurriedly greeted the guests who were walking into the restaurant.

When it was the turn of Hanyu Hideki, who was the last one sitting, the two girls greeted him and immediately surrounded him happily.

Hirohashi Saori looked at Hanyu Hideki's white hair and said in amazement, "Uncle's white hair looks special and beautiful. No wonder the girls in school are collecting your white-haired photos."

"My photo?" Hanyu Hideki asked with a puzzled look on his face.

It really surprised him that today's junior high school girls would be interested in his favorite mature woman.

After all, adult women have always made up the majority of his fans.

Even if the little girl reads his picture books and story books, she only likes his works and rarely likes him directly.

“Originally, not many of my classmates paid attention to my uncle, but after his white-haired look, many people began to pay attention to him.

Later, a female classmate discovered that the new book of her uncle that her mother bought came with a free photo album of his gray-haired face, and everyone started collecting it.

Now, an authentic photo of my uncle with white hair can be sold for 5,000 yen in a second-hand store!"

After hearing what Hirohashi Saori said, Hanyu Hideki was a little shocked and angry.

His new book, "I Am a Cat," only sells for 5,500 yen per copy, even though it's a limited edition that comes with a bonus photo album.

As a result, just the photo included in the package is now worth almost as much as the entire book.

As expected, fans’ fighting power is infinite and irrational.

Although he is a writer, his peripheral products are much more popular than those of popular idols.

While sighing in his heart, Hanyu Hideki discovered that Hirohashi Saori looked at his hair with sparkling eyes, as if she really wanted to touch it.

So he smiled and asked, "Why, do you really want to touch it?"

Hirohashi Saori nodded vigorously, "Yes!"

Before Hanyu Hideki agreed, a stern voice came from the side.

"Nonsense! How could you do such a disrespectful thing!"

Judging from the voice, it could be no one else except Guangqiao Qianzi.

Hirohashi Asako, who had just been accompanying her mother, came into the living room at some point.

Facing her strong female mother, Saori Hirohashi is still very in awe of her mother.

He immediately bowed to Hanyu Hideki and apologized, "Uncle, I'm sorry, I was too rude."

Hanyu Hideki smiled and said, "Saori-chan, this kind of thing would be very rude to others, but it's not considered rude to me. Who made me like Saori-chan so much?"

As Hanyu Hideki said this, he took the initiative to pull Hirohashi Saori's hand and placed it on his head.

Seeing this, Hirohashi Asako next to him complained to Hanyu Hideki helplessly, "Hanyu-san, just pamper her!"

Of course, Hirohashi Asako's complaints were merely verbal and she didn't take them to heart.

After all, patting the head is nothing. Hideki Hanyu has done countless more doting things for her two "daughters", Saori Hirohashi and Rie Miyazawa.

For example, in the birthday gift industry, Hideki Hanyu, whose paintings can be sold for hundreds of thousands of dollars in the outside world, takes time out every year to draw story picture books with two children as the protagonists.

Although the two children cherished the gifts given by Hideki Hanyu, they had no idea how precious and valuable those small sketchbooks given by Hideki Hanyu were.

"Qianzi-san is just too serious. You should treat your daughter more like a friend."

After Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, he turned to look at Miyazawa Rie, who was also looking at him with burning eyes but remained silent.

He asked, "Rie-chan, do you want to touch it too?"

Miyazawa Rie blushed when she heard that, then whispered, "Forget about touching my hair, but I have a friend who wants to get some photos of Hanyu-san, can you give me some signed photos?"

At the end, Miyazawa Rie glanced at Hanyu Hideki's hair and emphasized, "I want a photo with white hair."

"No problem, I'll have my assistant deliver it to Rie-chan tomorrow."

Hideki Hanyu agreed wholeheartedly.

Then after touching her hair, Hirohashi Saori immediately pleaded, "I want it too."

Hanyu Hideki ruffled Hirohashi Saori's hair and said, "No problem!"

Seeing this, Hirohashi Asako shook her head helplessly again.

Then he couldn't help but say, "Hanyu-san may not know that the limited edition of "I Am a Cat" with photo albums published by Shogakukan was sold out on the first day of its release.

I think Hanyu-san should try to shoot a separate photo album and release it.”

Hanyu Hideki quickly shook his head, "The limited edition with photos is to give back to the book fans. I am neither a photo model nor an idol artist, and I am not short of money. Why should I sell a photo album separately?"

Hirohashi Asako looked regretful, "That's such a pity. I feel that if Hanyu-san is willing to publish a photo album, it will definitely break the sales record of photo albums."

Hanyu Hideki waved his hands and said, "I have no interest in breaking this kind of record."

At this time, the nanny of Hirohashi Asako's family came to remind again, "Madam, it's time to go to dinner."

Hirohashi Asako then called Hanyu Hideki and the two children, "Okay, we should go eat, don't keep others waiting for us."

The day's visit ended as everyone gathered at Hirohashi Asako's restaurant for dinner.

At the door of Hirohashi Asako's mansion, Hanyu Hideki was the last one to leave. After saying goodbye to Hirohashi Asako, he got into the driver's seat of the yellow Lamborghini.

However, he didn't notice it as he stepped on the accelerator and sped away.

Miyazawa Rie stood in front of Hirohashi's house, staring at the yellow supercar until it disappeared from her sight, then reluctantly returned home.

Hirohashi Asako, who noticed these details, just sighed silently and did not intend to take the initiative to intervene.

After all, as someone who has been through it, she knows that love is the most complicated thing, and unless you figure it out yourself, no matter how others persuade you, it will be useless.

It is actually a very normal thing for a girl like Miyazawa Rie, who is just beginning to fall in love, to fall in love with a brilliant and almost perfect man like Hanyu Hideki.

Perhaps time will slowly make Miyazawa Rie understand that admiration and love are not the same thing.

Sorry, I got home too late after working overtime, so the update is late.
