Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 849: Unifying the Hong Kong Comics World

Just when Hideki Hanyu felt that the voice seemed familiar and was curious about who was calling him.

Along with the voice, a familiar and pretty figure walked out from the shadows.

Isn’t it Li Zi whom I haven’t seen for a while?
No wonder the other party was able to get so close, but Marco didn't stop him.

To be honest, although the girl was pretty, she was the one who took the initiative to flirt with him, and he just casually collected stamps, so he really had no feelings for her.

So after not seeing each other for a while, the scumbag has almost forgotten the other person.

Even though he got the first blood, he also gave a large sum of money and gave the other party a high-end apartment in Tsim Sha Tsui, which was definitely a 1,600-square-foot mansion.

So what happens now that the other party has found him?

Just as the scumbag was guessing in his heart.

Li Zi, who was already close, looked up at Hanyu Hideki with his big watery eyes.

"My agent brought me here to visit a client this afternoon. I happened to see you in the parking lot. I knew you were busy working here, so I came here specifically to wait for you."

Having said this, the girl looked affectionate and spoke slowly.

"I miss you."

Seeing this look and hearing the other person's words.

Hanyu Hideki said to himself, "Bad thing."

He is not afraid of women asking for money, nor is he afraid of women asking for things, nor is he afraid of women asking for resources.

What he fears most is that women want "affection" from him.

It's obviously good for everyone to be happy together, and he doesn't mind giving various benefits.

After the happy time, everyone went their separate ways and had nothing to do with each other.

You find an honest person to take over.

This scumbag is looking for a new target: stamp collecting.

How wonderful and harmonious this is.

Why do you have to get involved in emotions?

Alas, the scumbag looked at Li Zi helplessly.

I thought that I couldn’t blame him, if I had to blame anyone I could only blame him for being too handsome and too outstanding.

But even so, he couldn't respond to the other party's words.

So as to avoid creating illusions for the other party.

He decisively found something to say in the other person's words and asked a question, "You have an agent, so has your studies ended?"

When Li Zi heard what Hanyu Hideki said, his eyes immediately showed a hint of affection. "You really don't care about me at all. I finished my studies at the beginning of the year and just signed with TVB's agency."

How could Hanyu Hideki be swayed by such a small emotion? He smiled and said, "In that case, I am also your boss."

Yunshang Entertainment is a major shareholder of TVB, so what he said is not wrong.

However, seeing that he returned to the entertainment industry after studying, or to be more precise, he kept in touch with it even when he was in school, I knew that he was also very clear that it was easier to make money in the entertainment industry.

It's normal to think about it. If it weren't for fame and fortune, why would those young and beautiful girls be willing to pay huge prices to become famous?

Li Zi did not dare to act willful in front of Hanyu Hideki, and after seeing that Hanyu Hideki did not care about her emotions, she naturally came up and put her arm around Hanyu Hideki's arm.

"Sir, can you please treat me to a midnight snack?"

Although scumbags don't like to have lingering ties, how could he possibly refuse when a 29-year-old, delicate, and beautiful woman takes the initiative to throw herself into his arms?

"Okay, then I'll make it for you myself."

After that, Hanyu Hideki took Li Zi to the Rabbit Hole in Causeway Bay.

As for midnight snacks, Hideki Hanyu certainly wouldn't make them.

However, Li Zi did "eat" something, but I won't go into details about what he ate.

Anyway, the scumbag took advantage of her completely.

After everything calmed down, Li Zi saw that Hanyu Hideki was in a good mood after the incident, so he leaned over Hanyu Hideki, circling his fingers around him and teasing him in a coquettish manner.

"Sir, after signing with TVB, the resources the company gave me are not good. Can you help me?"

Upon hearing this, Hanyu Hideki thought about the resources that Li Zi had in his previous life after he signed with TVB in the early 1990s. It was indeed quite bad.

Although he claims to be well-developed in film, television and music, he is basically bad at none of them.

As for songs, the best result is just a "gold record" in terms of sales.

Don't think this is anything special, it just sounds nice.

Because the standard for gold records in Hong Kong is only 25,000 copies.

As for TV dramas, most of the leading actors are supporting roles, and there are basically no works that become popular. The palace fighting drama "Beauty's Rival in Palace" was already in 2004.

As for the movie…

The first movie that Lai Zi starred in after returning to the entertainment industry was "Prison on Fire" directed by Kent Cheng.

Li Zi was abused again and again in the play and put in huge efforts, but in the end, there was no splash at all. The audience all went to watch Andy Lau show off.

In 93, she finally collaborated with Jet Li and played Zhou Zhiruo in Wang Jing's "The Demon Cult Leader"; however, the movie failed at the box office.

It was not until 96 that she gained some popularity for her role as the stutterer in the movie Young and Dangerous. It was also this role that made mainland audiences know her.

But the problem is that the most popular character in Young and Dangerous in Hong Kong is not a female character at all.

If I remember correctly, Niu Lao, the original author of "Young and Dangerous", is still working at Yulang International.

In another time and space, the other party also chose to start a business with his friends because of Huang Yulang's various self-destructive behaviors.

However, in this time and space, Yulang International has fallen into the hands of Elf Publishing House.

Elf Publishing House vigorously promotes new cooperation models in Yulang International, improves the treatment of painters, increases the share of writers, implements a senior partnership system, etc.

Even if you want to start your own business, there is no problem as there is a full set of support policies to help you.

We provide services ranging from financial support, company establishment, staffing, publishing and sales channels, copyright operation, etc.

Because for Hideki Hanyu, he does not value the income from comics itself.

What he values ​​is copyright, and the desire to build a strong copyright moat for Yunshang Entertainment, because this is the valuable asset that can truly enable the company to maintain its position for a long time.

And Elf Entertainment also strictly implemented his will.

After acquiring Yulang International, Jingling Entertainment, in cooperation with Yunshang Entertainment, began to aggressively invade Hong Kong's paper media industry.

It is basically the same as the initial development strategy of Cloud Music.

That is, relying on the fact that the parent company is not short of money, it supports Yulang International's crazy expansion and acquisitions.

Just to say that in the comics industry, Yulang International, which is not short of money, pays its practitioners so much that its peers cannot compete at all, and they cannot even compete with it.

Moreover, judging from the current development trend, Yulang International, with the support of Elf Publishing House, is about to unify the world of Hong Kong comics.

However, Hanyu Hideki didn't know that because of Li Zi's words, he began to think divergently involuntarily, which made Li Zi, who was waiting for his answer, a little unwilling.

Li Zi acted decisively, grasping Hanyu Hideki's weak spot, and pretended to be angry and said, "If you don't help me, then I will be rude."

Hanyu Hideki was amused by Li Zi, "Haha, I want to see how you are going to be rude?"

As a result, the next moment, Li Zi leaned over and used all his skills to torture Hanyu Hideki until he surrendered.
Hideki Hanyu happily "admitted defeat" and raised his hands in surrender, "Okay, you are awesome, how can I help you?"

"Recently, Zheng Zeshi invited me to film a drama, but the content seems too hard to shoot, and I have too few scenes. Can you help me say hello and change the script for me?"

Yunshang Entertainment has no intention of not getting involved in the production of Hong Kong films, and it is naturally impossible for Hideki Hanyu to put pressure on irrelevant crews to change the script just for Li Zi.

So he didn't respond at all, but changed his angle and said, "If you think it's hard, just refuse it."

Li Zi immediately came up to him and said in a sweet voice, "How can I make money if I don't make movies? My father is in poor health, my mother works too hard, and my brother is in school. I also want to help them."

Hanyu Hideki really wanted to ask, we only gave him a few million last time, why was it spent so quickly?
But that was just small change for him.

And most importantly, if the little beauty doesn't mention feelings, doesn't want status, and only wants money, then it's actually good news for him.

After all, for him, anything that can be solved with money is not a problem.

So Hideki Hanyu didn't say anything. He just took the checkbook from the bedside, wrote on it quickly, and handed it to the little beauty and asked.

"Use this money for your family first."

When Li Zi saw the amount on the check, which was more than she could earn even after working for several years, she immediately threw herself on Hanyu Hideki and said happily, "You are so good to me."

Hanyu Hideki deliberately asked, "Are you just saying yes, without actually saying thank you?"

Li Zi's fingers lightly touched his cherry lips and asked, "Do you want to do it like before?"

Hanyu Hideki said, "Of course, but before that, change your clothes. I suggest you bring some from Japan."

The little stutterer wears a neon sailor suit and then helps him... The scumbag feels excited just thinking about it. It seems that tonight will be another sleepless night.
-
The next day.

February 27th.

After wandering around, Hanyu Hideki finally returned to Bai Jianshidao's home.

After all, tomorrow is his son Liu Ximu’s first birthday. Zhou Huimin has been busy preparing for several days. He can’t just come back that day like a guest.

As soon as she entered the door, Zhou Huimin couldn't wait to start telling him what she had prepared for her son's birthday party, who she had invited to attend, etc.

When Hideki Hanyu took a look at the list, he found that the guests included not only relatives and friends, but also many well-known figures in Hong Kong.

It is not difficult to guess that although the invitation was sent by Zhou Huimin, these people obviously came because of him.

For this reason, Hideki Hanyu did not have too many thoughts.

Moreover, Zhou Huimin's overly caring attitude towards her son and her motherly behavior made Hanyu Hideki feel a sense of abstinence, which greatly reduced his "interest".

Obviously, Zhou Huimin did not understand what her greatest asset was in Hanyu Hideki's heart.

Not to give birth to a child for Hanyu Hideki, or a future heir.

Because Hideki Hanyu doesn't care about these things at all, and his ideas are completely different from those of other people.

For a scumbag who only cares about food, sex and nature, the only reason why Hideki Hanyu cares about women is "beauty".

Therefore, when Zhou Huimin was still seriously explaining what was prepared for the birthday party, Hanyu Hideki interrupted her, pretending to be serious but actually showing no interest.

"You have arranged these things very well. I trust you. I just got some inspiration for a new work and need to go to the study to write it down."

After saying that, Hanyu Hideki went straight to the study.

In the new year, several publishing houses have been tentatively asking him if he would consider publishing new works, whether they be picture books, novels, or children's books.

Hideki Hanyu considered for a long time and finally decided to create the ninth part of "Magic Pastry Shop".

Although this work has been published in more than twenty volumes in another time and space, considering the limitations of the times and some stories that Hideki Hanyu does not like, it is certainly impossible for Hideki Hanyu to publish so many books.

According to his plan, even if he combined his own original works, selected, deleted and reduced some, it would be great if he could release 15 volumes.

Of course, this is only the most ideal situation.

Judging from Hideki Hanyu's increasingly "lazy" creative state, he may not be able to publish a new book in the next three to five years.

Even the ninth part of "Magic Pastry Shop" that he was writing in his study at this time, there was a big question mark as to when it would be completed.

Maybe I won’t submit the first draft to the publishing house until next year.

However, although Hanyu Hideki had already found an excuse and did not show any impatience, Zhou Huimin still looked thoughtful as she watched him leave.

……

In the study, Hanyu Hideki was concentrating on writing.

Now when he created "Magic Dim Sum Shop", it was no longer just a simple "plagiarism".

Basically, I borrow from references, and then combine my own creativity to re-create it in line with the times.

Just when he had finished writing the plot outline of the first short story, there was a sudden knock on the study door.

Hideki Hanyu looked at the time and found that only half an hour had passed.

While sighing that the creative progress was quite good, he shouted to the person outside the door to come in.

Then the door opened, and a figure walked in and closed the door from the inside.

Hideki Hanyu looked at the person who came with a slightly dazed expression.

"Why did you change into this outfit?"

Don’t blame the scumbag for this.

Because the person who walked into the study was not someone else, but Zhou Huimin.

Zhou Huimin was still wearing a suit jacket, a tight skirt, black stockings, high heels, and black-framed glasses on her face.

You know, this is a brand new version of Hideki Hanyu that he has never seen in movies or TV dramas in his previous life.

After the beauty walked into the room, she did not answer Hanyu Hideki's question at all, but walked in front of Hanyu Hideki in high heels.

The beauty deliberately bent down, pushed up her glasses, and asked in a teasing voice, "Boss, is there anything I can help you with?"

Hideki Hanyu looked at the scenery vaguely visible through the suit jacket in front of him, the straight black silk legs, and the peach-like buttocks when she bent over.

In this situation, he would be in trouble if he could hold back.

Without saying a word, Hanyu Hideki hugged the beauty in his arms.

As Zhou Huimin pretended to be shy and was reluctant, he teased, "My little beauty, I need your help with so many things," and then put Zhou Huimin on the desk.

In the next study room, there are naturally rhythmic sounds of reading, and exploring knowledge is endlessly wonderful.

After a long time, everything calmed down.

Curled up in the scumbag's arms, Zhou Huimin said faintly, "Honey, I'm sorry. I've neglected you these days because I was celebrating the child's birthday."

Hanyu Hideki was a little surprised when he heard this. He didn't expect that Zhou Huimin could actually detect his attitude.

It seems that the reason why the beauty acted like that just now was that she wanted to make it up to him with practical actions.

In fact, Hanyu Hideki really wants to say that although you have ignored me these days, my life outside is not "cold" at all.

However, it is impossible for a scumbag to really say such unpleasant words.

Even he would not admit Zhou Huimin's guess.

"You're overthinking it. I'm just a little busy at work, and I have to write a new book. It has nothing to do with you."

After all, she is the woman who has given birth to a son for him. She is definitely different from those women out there who can be played in friendly matches or dealt with with money.

And he found that after he finished speaking, the beautiful woman looked at him with a gloomy look that showed obvious signs of easing.

Apparently, his soothing words had worked.

However, Hanyu Hideki did not intend to continue the topic of love, but talked to Zhou Huimin about his recent work and began to divert the beauty's attention.

When Hanyu Hideki talked about some investments in the mainland, Zhou Huimin asked curiously, "Husband, you have invested so much in the mainland. Are you optimistic about the development of the mainland?"

Hanyu Hideki replied, “Of course, if I am not optimistic, there is no need for me to invest heavily in the mainland every year.

If my judgment is correct, the size of my assets will likely exceed that of overseas and Neon in the future.”

When Zhou Huimin heard what Hanyu Hideki said, her eyes suddenly lit up.

She thought of the eldest daughter of Hanyu Hideki and a certain woman, who was now receiving education in the mainland, so she also tentatively asked this question.

"Since my husband is so optimistic about the development of the mainland, why don't we let Ximu go to the mainland to receive education? This will also make it easier for him to help you handle the mainland business when he grows up."

Although the tone was tentative, the meaning behind the words was very clear.

Zhou Huimin felt that it was not easy for her to help her son fight for Hanyu Hideki's assets in Japan since she was in Hong Kong.

Now that I have heard from Hanyu Hideki that in the future the assets in the mainland will not be inferior to those overseas, why not help my son make plans early and seize the initiative in the mainland in advance.

But Zhou Huimin never expected that her thoughts would hit the heart of Hanyu Hideki.

Although Hideki Hanyu has no illusions about his offspring, he does not want his son to receive some alienated education and eventually grow up to be a "wasted youth."

Originally, he was still thinking about how to arrange his son's education.

Now that Zhou Huimin took the initiative to ask, it saved him the effort.

He immediately asked doubtfully, "Will it be inconvenient to go to the mainland to receive education?"

Zhou Huimin was worried that Hanyu Hideki would not agree, so she quickly said, "We will be one family in a few years anyway, so it won't be inconvenient."

"That's right. Anyway, if you have money, you won't suffer anywhere. If you want, you can take your son to study in the mainland. When the child grows up and is familiar with the mainland, it will be convenient for him to help me with business."

Hideki Hanyu took the opportunity and agreed immediately.

And his last words directly satisfied Zhou Huimin's expectations for the future, and immediately made Zhou Huimin twist her body and speak in a tender voice.

"Husband, you are so kind to me."

"Don't move." The scumbag felt like he was losing control.

Who would have thought that the beauty in his arms would directly put her arms around his neck and say something seductively.

"I can……"

At this moment, an idea suddenly came to the scumbag's mind.

She was wearing a sailor suit last night and is wearing the temptation of an office lady today. If it weren’t for his amazing physique, he really wouldn’t be able to handle it.

But at this moment, it seems unnecessary for him to think too much.
