Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 935: I will not enjoy the fruits of victory alone

Hokkaido, Asahikawa City.

May twenty-sixth.

The sun is shining and the wind is beautiful.

At Asahikawa Gojo Church, the church-style wedding of Kitahara Eri and Koshino Nagamasa is taking place.

Accompanied by the best man and bridesmaid, the newlyweds walked into the church from the entrance and slowly walked towards the position of the priest.

As they walked forward, a melodious, elegant, majestic and gentle piano piece sounded in the church.

It was Richard Clayderman's classic song "Wedding in a Dream".

As soon as the sound of the piano sounded, it immediately attracted the attention of many guests watching the ceremony in the church.

It’s not that everyone is very curious about this music.

Rather, everyone was surprised at the person who played the song.

In a corner of the church, in front of the accompaniment band, in front of a black grand piano, Hanyu Hideki, wearing a blue suit, was stretching out his ten slender fingers and playing gracefully.

Just then, a ray of light passed through the church glass and shone on Hideki Hanyu who was playing the piano, shrouding him in colorful light.

Coupled with Hanyu Hideki's elegant and refined temperament, his already perfect appearance now seems even more unlike a real person. He really looks like a perfect angel walking down from a mural.

Seeing this scene, many guests attending the wedding couldn't help but hold their breath, fearing that breathing loudly would disrupt Mr. Hanyu's performance.

Especially the young female guests, they stared at Hanyu Hideki with their eyes infatuated, and were completely immersed in Hanyu Hideki's charm.

Of course, what surprised everyone the most was that Hideki Hanyu would actually accompany Kitahara Eri's wedding.

The fact that a big shot like Hanyu Hideki can condescend to show the relationship between Hanyu Hideki and Kitahara Eri, as well as Kitahara Eri's status in the Yunshang system.

The Piccolo's thoughts were different and their attention was scattered, and for a moment it seemed as if the wedding had a new protagonist.

However, Hideki Hanyu's performance was very short. Just when the newlyweds walked to the podium where the priest was, the performance stopped abruptly and did not continue to steal the limelight of the wedding.

When the guests came to their senses and looked at the position of the piano, Hideki Hanyu had already stood up and left, sitting back in his seat.

Facing the polite greetings from the newlyweds' parents, Hanyu Hideki simply nodded and began to watch the wedding seriously.

As for the other guests, although they really wanted to get close to the big boss Hideki Hanyu, they had to give up because of the occasion.

Compared to Japan's traditional shrine-style wedding, the church-style wedding was much simpler and the entire process was completed very quickly. During the wedding, Hideki Hanyu kept a low profile and did not participate in the wedding.

On the contrary, the two celebrity bridesmaids who served as embellishment cast their gazes at him from time to time, with eyes of infatuation and admiration. Obviously, the way the scumbag played the piano just now also made the two beauties fascinated.

After the church wedding, there will be an open-air thank-you dinner at the venue nearby.

So many distinguished guests came from afar, in addition to attending Kitahara Eri's wedding and sending congratulations to the newlyweds, they naturally also had the idea of ​​socializing.

Especially since everyone knows that the great player Hideki Hanyu will be coming.

In the past two or three years, although Hideki Hanyu has done a lot, his appearances in public occasions where he can socialize have become less and less frequent.

Now is a rare opportunity to get close to this big guy, so everyone naturally has to seize the opportunity.

Therefore, the guests attending the wedding today are not only Japanese, but also guests from all over the world.

In this situation, Kitahara Eri naturally has to provide everyone with an opportunity to socialize.

A simple church wedding naturally cannot meet the needs, so there is a wedding banquet in front of the public after the wedding.

It is in the form of a buffet, but is equipped with individual tables with parasols, allowing everyone to move freely and communicate individually.

But to everyone's disappointment, Hideki Hanyu did not show up immediately after the dinner started.

Just when everyone was speculating whether Hideki Hanyu would leave directly after the wedding and not attend the dinner, which was extremely regrettable.

Kitahara Eri, who came to thank the guests, came forward in time to explain to everyone.

"Mr. Hanyu has not left. He is just dealing with some matters temporarily. He will be at the dinner party soon. Please don't worry."

As soon as Kitahara Eri finished speaking, the guests' hearts immediately settled down.

Since Kitahara Eri said that Hanyu Hideki would come, there was no need for them to have any extra thoughts. They could just socialize with other people and wait for Hanyu Hideki to show up.

However, at this time, Oshima Nagamasa, who was standing next to Kitahara Eri, asked in a low voice, "Is it okay for President Hanyu to ask these people to wait for him?"

Kitahara Eri raised her glass to a guest in the distance with a smile on her face, and whispered to her husband in a calm tone.

"What's the matter? They are just unimportant guys. Hanyu-san is giving them face by meeting them."

After saying that, Kitahara Eri looked into the distance and said, "Hanyu-san has already met the really important people in advance, so he won't be as anxious as they are."

Upon hearing this, Osamu Nagamasa followed his wife's gaze and found that the people standing where his eyes were were indeed not ordinary people.

Some of them, including Hirohashi Asako, Tanaka Yukio, Yoshioka Shouta, Ito Shinsuke, Iwata Satoshi, Aragaki Tetsuya... and other partners of Hideki Hanyu, or high-level elf executives were receiving him.

Seeing this, Koshiro Nagamasa asked curiously, "What on earth did President Hanyu do? I saw him being the first to leave the church just now."

Hearing her husband's question, Kitahara Eri opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end she just said, "I don't know either, it should be something very important."

But what Kitahara Eiri imagined was the scene when she changed out of her wedding dress and saw Hanyu Hideki, Nakamori Akina and Koizumi Kyoko getting into the dressing room car together.

So even though the words were on the tip of her tongue, how could she possibly tell her husband such a ridiculous answer? All she could do was leave a helpless smile on her face.

More than forty minutes passed after Kitahara Eri finished her explanation.

Hideki Hanyu, who was more valued than a couple of newlyweds, finally arrived amid everyone's expectations.

Hideki Hanyu appeared alone, and he even changed his clothes from a suit to a refreshing jacket with a T-shirt and casual pants.

Although this kind of attire does not match the dinner in front of us, it even seems a bit out of place.

Especially on the young-looking Hideki Hanyu, he looks like a naive college student who accidentally walked into a high-end party.

If strangers see this, it is really hard to connect Hideki Hanyu with the identities of the world's richest man, world-renowned writer, entertainment and media tycoon, etc.

Of course, the shape is the shape and the person is the person.

No one would dare to look down on Hideki Hanyu just because he changed his clothes.

No one would think that Hideki Hanyu's outfit is inappropriate for the current occasion.

To put it bluntly, the so-called rules are just made for the weak.

Even if Hanyu Hideki came today wearing beach shorts, everyone could only say that he had personality and style, and they felt honored. Kitahara Eri immediately greeted Hanyu Hideki and asked quietly, "Why did you suddenly change clothes?"

Hanyu Hideki kept his expression unchanged and answered in a low voice, "The vanity car is too small, and my suit got dirty accidentally. I can only use this as a temporary emergency. How do you feel?"

Kitahara Eri looked him up and down, "Very handsome."

Hanyu Hideki said smugly, "When was I not handsome?"

Kitahara Eri rolled her eyes slightly, "Don't be so narcissistic, just deal with those people quickly, they have been waiting for you for more than an hour."

"They are all unimportant guys. They are just worried that now that the global sales of PS2 consoles have exceeded million, the boom period will end. Elf Entertainment will reduce its supply chain demand. They just don't want to be driven out of the Elf supply chain."

Hideki Hanyu easily saw what these people were thinking.

Kitahara Eri shook her head, “They don’t know that even if the sales boom doesn’t end, some of them will be eliminated from the supply chain.

Taking advantage of our tight supply, some people have come up with evil ideas, selling inferior products as good ones and lowering the quality, and we have kept all of this in mind.”

Hanyu Hideki looked around, "Where's Iwata Satoshi? Why can't I see him? Talk to him about this before your honeymoon. Some things should be cut short."

"He still had work to do at the Tokyo headquarters. After appearing at the dinner, he went straight to the airport to catch a flight."

After Kitahara Eri finished speaking, she whispered, "Don't worry about how to deal with it next. You still have to deal with these people today."

"I see."

Hanyu Hideki nodded and prepared to go to the social event, but before leaving, he quietly praised Kitahara Eri, "The bridesmaid dress you chose is great, I like it very much."

……

In the evening of the 26th.

The lively wedding is over.

In the living room of Koshima Nagamasa and Kitahara Eri's new home, Hanyu Hideki, Hirohashi Asako, Yoshioka Shota, and several other core executives of Yunshang and Storm Advertising gathered for an emergency meeting.

What they were discussing was the big event that had been in preparation for a long time, the independence of Storm Advertising.

Everyone present was an industry insider, at the top of the industry pyramid, so they all understood what kind of advertising war would be set off if Storm Advertising broke its agreement with Dentsu and announced its entry into the Japanese market.

But even though they understood the situation, all of them were full of fighting spirit and confidence, believing that they, as younger, more creative and more motivated, would definitely be able to defeat the old and corrupt Dentsu.

The young business director of Storm Advertising was reporting to everyone at this moment all the plans for launching the advertising war.

The entire plan, from project strategy to customer acquisition, from platform competition to public opinion tactics, is comprehensive and covers every detail.

At the end, the young minister spoke passionately.

“We have already formulated a complete battle plan for this advertising war with Dentsu.

I believe that in the event of a sudden and preemptive attack, the bloated and sluggish Dentsu would not have time to react and would only make a stupid and arrogant counterattack.

Therefore, we will be the ones who win in the end.”

After the young minister finished speaking, Hanyu Hideki smiled.

“Courage is commendable, and such confidence needs to be maintained, but it is important to remember that we do not have an overwhelming advantage over Dentsu.

And Dentsu is not as simple as you think. I believe you are all aware of its special status in Japan. The forces and interests involved behind it cannot be simply described in words.

We must strictly follow our plan. Our goal this time is to gain a firm foothold in Japan's domestic market, not to be greedy and try to defeat Dentsu completely in one go.

So remember, strategically, we must despise Dentsu, but tactically, we must recognize that Dentsu is an enemy that we should be wary of and take seriously.”

"Hey!"

As soon as Hanyu Hideki finished speaking, many core senior executives responded in unison.

Hirohashi Asako next to him asked, "Hanyu-san, is it still unclear what the exact time is?"

“Everything in this world is changing, and we can’t set a rigid time.

And I still have an important trump card that I haven't prepared yet, so when to start, just follow my instructions."

After answering Hirohashi Asako's words, Hanyu Hideki's expression turned serious. He looked around at everyone present and spoke in a cold tone.

“You should all know how important this matter is.

You are here today because you are important and because you have earned my trust.

I can tell you that even if the plan fails, Dentsu can't do anything to me.

But those who betray should not imagine that they can avoid the punishment for betrayal by relying on Dentsu's protection.

Believe me, there is no force on this planet that dares to shelter those who betray me.

I will also make the betrayer pay an unimaginable price.

So please don’t betray my trust.”

Faced with Hanyu Hideki's warning and looking at his cold gaze, most of the core senior executives were silent and looked terrified.

Even though they had no intention of betrayal in their hearts, they felt the oppression from the superior Hanyu Hideki, and they also felt like they were being targeted by a bloodthirsty beast.

Fortunately, Hirohashi Asako eased the atmosphere in time and said, "Hanyu-san, you don't have to be so serious. I believe that everyone will not do anything stupid."

Of course, although Hirohashi Asako seemed to be trying to ease the atmosphere, she was actually warning these people not to do anything stupid.

In fact, those who can appear here today are basically trustworthy people. Hanyu Hideki and others believe that they will not betray, but they are afraid that these guys will accidentally let the cat out of the bag or something.

After all, there are too many examples of Japanese office workers doing stupid things after drinking too much wine after get off work.

Therefore, after Hirohashi Asako finished speaking, Yoshioka Shouta immediately reminded him, "From now on, before the plan begins, everyone must be careful about their words and actions and not drink alcohol. If the plan is accidentally leaked, no one will care whether you did it on purpose or not."

"Hey!"

A group of core senior executives agreed again in unison.

Of course, after the beating, there will definitely be promises of benefits.

Hanyu Hideki looked at everyone, and his stern expression gradually relaxed. He then spoke to the people in front of him in a serious tone.

“Although the waiting time is hard, the fruits of victory are destined to be sweet.

And I, Hanyu Hideki, will never enjoy the fruits of victory alone."
