Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era - Chapter 540

   Chapter 540 The biggest haunted house in Tokyo

   After Miyazawa Rie and the others returned from Rebun Island the next day, there was a new song on the boat, and Miyi Asuka started screaming.

   “I want it too! I want it too!” The magic voice filled his ears, and Mei Yifei Niao swayed in front of Tao Zhiming, “Have the rules changed? Or is it the only opportunity for this vacation to ask for new songs unscrupulously?”

  Tao Zhiming was overwhelmed: “That’s because when you think about it, Ming Cai makes sense. With her influence, it’s a bit of a waste to be full of old songs. The rules haven’t changed, just for this album!”

   “Chiyo, say something! And Rie-chan, act like a spoiled brat to Big Brother Dalang!”

  Nagumo Chiyo shook his head: “If it’s too much, what if you won’t let me continue to play in WanderStar?”

   Miyazawa Rie agreed: “The president lives as an adult, I’m just making a cameo.”

   “…No help, you two!”

  Tao Zhiming smiled and watched Miyi Asuka leave helplessly and regretfully, so he continued to listen to Akina Nakamori and continued to practice this new song.

  There is nothing else on the boat, Tao Zhiming just played it so easily.

Starting from the official marriage the year before last, a series of changes caused by the Wenchun Pao incident, until the previous year when Nobuhiko Horikawa was temporarily overwhelmed, the harvest of Yoshiaki Emi and the further layout of Li Jiacheng were completed, Tao Zhiming was finally able to last from a year. You can take a break for a while from your busy schedule.

  If it wasn’t for this kind of state of mind, I wouldn’t think about making an “inspirational album” because of Jun Kaibe’s request.

   For Tao Zhiming, this is the BGM he gave to himself.

   In fact, there is a twisted pleasure in his heart: no matter how he listens to the inspirational Divine Comedy, the general trend of neon will be certain in the future. Ordinary people are destined to live in a repressed low-desire society.

   This is the schadenfreude mentality brought about by the identity in the soul.

  Tao Zhiming has always had a little “simple emotion of ordinary citizens” from the past to the present.

  Now, watching Akina Nakamori practicing hard there, Miyi Asuka and the others continued to rehearse the dance, Yuta Irie was standing not far away waiting for instructions, and Sakai Springs who had just come over, Tao Zhiming suddenly felt that his mood had changed.

   He is now the “God of Finance”, how can he be unstable.

  There are many things in this world, just as the electrician said: destroying you, what does it have to do with you?

   Everyone is just for their own path and life.

   So Tao Zhiming stood up and stopped in front of Sakai Quan Shui: “Go, go out for a walk.”

   “…Eh?” Sakai Springshui, who had a lot of courage last night, made his heart beat faster.

   But he was the president and couldn’t refuse.

   Besides, for some unknown reason, after two years of distance, she also began to yearn for that close feeling that would bring violent emotional fluctuations.

   Nakamori Akina, who was practicing singing over there, had just finished singing and took off his headphones to ask Tao Zhiming how he felt, and saw him and Sakai Quanshui walking out of the banquet hall one after the other.

   Nakamori Akina’s heart moved, and then he bowed to the production team: “It’s hard work… I feel, where do I need to adjust?”

  On the deck, Tao Zhiming was walking ahead and suddenly stopped: “Don’t follow behind, do you have to turn your head if you want to speak?”

   Sakai Izumi squeezed his fingers, took two steps forward silently, and walked a little behind him.

   He was already twenty-five years old, and he acted like a teenage girl at a loss.

  Tao Zhiming looked amused: “It wasn’t like this last night. Did you not sleep well? It’s only now.”

   Sakai Quan Shui listened to what he said, as if he had been waiting for him to appear, and quickly said: “Sleep well… well.”

   “I didn’t sleep well.” Tao Zhiming stood up, leaned his back against the guardrail, looked at her and asked with a smile, “What do you mean by marrying music with Ming Cai?”

   Sakai Izumi lowered his head and did not speak.

   “Specially told me that I gave up looking for a man to fall in love with in the future. After hearing this, I didn’t sleep well last night.”

   Sakai Quanshui still lowered his head: After so long, does he actually still care about himself?

   “spring water…”

   Sakai Quanshui suddenly raised his head: “Call me Sachiko, Tao Jun.”

  Tao Zhiming was stunned. Looking at her somewhat determined eyes, he slowly became dumbfounded: “Is there a mental examination to be added to the physical examination?”

   Sakai Izumi pursed his lips, glanced at the sea without answering.

   “…So what did Ming Cai say to you?” Tao Zhiming nodded slightly, “Don’t say such silly things, marrying music or something, it sounds silly.”

   Sakai Spring is still silent.

“Don’t play games like two identities.” Tao Zhiming sighed helplessly, “Although you seemed to have figured out some things yesterday, I was even more worried after hearing what you said. Saying I wanted to get to know you was a mistake in the first place, and there’s nothing I can do to fix it now.”

   Seeing that she still didn’t speak, Tao Zhiming said again, “Sachiko?”

   Sakai Quan Shui’s face was slightly unbearable, the corners of his mouth twitched quickly, and then he said, “I’m fine, don’t worry.”

   So there are still worries.

Tao Zhiming confirmed some things from her reaction, and his face couldn’t help but feel a little weird: “Could it be that he wanted to use Sachiko’s identity to force me to be the guy who was not as powerful and… Take care of yourself and try what it’s like to be in love, right?”

   Sakai Izumi learned what Nakamori Akina said about his “thick skin” and “arrogance”, I didn’t say anything! Do you think so yourself?

   “…What’s the point of it! It’s just…it’s just that after all, you can’t keep your distance deliberately all the time, so others will think it’s even more abnormal! What does it feel like to try to fall in love? It’s all said…I want to be with Sister Minna!”

   Saying so much in one breath always seemed like a very laborious thing to her.

After saying   , he bowed and wanted to run.

  Tao Zhiming stretched out his hand and pulled, while Sakai Izumi, who was grabbed by his wrist, blushed and looked around anxiously.

“If you want to say it, make it clear. Yesterday, you took the initiative to tell me those words!” Tao Zhiming smiled, “Don’t you understand that you are playing a dangerous game? Respect your will and help you achieve your goals. Your dream is the only good I have left for you. The rest of me is dangerous and dark.”

   Sakai Quan Shui’s eyes dimmed, and then he became firm again: “It’s not that I’m playing some dangerous game with you.”

   She raised her head: “Tao Jun, Sachiko’s fate was changed because of you…”

   “No!” Tao Zhiming interrupted her, “Even if I don’t know you, you will always be a very popular singer!”

   He said so affirmatively, but it made Sakai Izumi bewildered for a while.

  Why was he always so sure of himself from the very beginning?

  Tao Zhiming is very clear that her love for her was born mainly because of his “talent” in music. In addition, Tao Zhiming has never pursued her in other ways except for following her without permission when he first met her and refusing to give up.

   When she found out that she had developed feelings for herself, it was a direct expression of overbearing president Fan’s private jet travel.

   was decisively rejected.

Seeing that Sakai Quanshui suddenly didn’t know how to continue, Tao Zhiming smiled: “I see. Sachiko, since we have both kept a distance for two years, it is also called such a state today, then Tao Zhiming will use Tao in the future. Let’s get along with Chime and Sachiko Puchi.”

   After he finished speaking, he bent down: “Please take care of me, Sachiko-chan.”

   Sakai Quan Shui’s face was hot, he bent down and said in a panic, “Please… take care… me, I’m going to… practice songs…”

   After saying that, he really went inside. When he reached the door, he couldn’t help but turn his head, and saw that he was still standing there, smiling at himself in the sunlight.

   Sakai Izumi bent down again, walked through the door and avoided sight before pouting and breathing.

   He is such a powerful person… Did he really understand his own mind?

   Tao Zhiming watched her back disappear on the deck, and then turned to lie on the railing and look at the sea.

   It turns out that there was a time when the sea was difficult for the water. Even if I restrained myself and no longer provoke more debts, if I was not careful, I would have lived into a vast ocean.

  Tao Zhiming continued to feel “young” when the Taoran returned.

   is not the chairman, not the owner of this super yacht.

Wearing casual T-shirts and beach shorts every day, playing neon mahjong with Yuta Irie, Asuka Nagumo, Chiyo Nagumo, or competing with the fat Yasushi Akimoto in the pool, or riding a motorboat With Kudo Shizuka, Kimura Takuya Biao.

   In times like this, I no longer have to keep a distance from Sakai Springs like I have in the past two years.

   Talk and laugh, just like getting along with ordinary people.

   Even went to the kitchen to play and learned how to make smoothies and puddings.

   Sakai Springs ate the pudding he made by himself. The taste is very ordinary, but the taste is very special.

   Nakamori Akina probably understood what was going on, so she occasionally looked at Tao Zhiming angrily.

   Tao Zhiming looked at their small expressions of anger and shame.

   The happy time seemed short-lived. After the Tao Ran returned to Tokyo, everyone was ready to go home.

  Tao Zhiming stood on the deck and waved to them: “Come on! The music video should also be filmed well!”

   Sakai Springs and Nakamori Akina walked together and looked back at his figure under the sunset.

   “Really! Didn’t you say don’t admit defeat?” Akina Nakamori hated that iron was not steel, stared at Tao Zhiming and muttered, “To actually use this method to compete with me for a cute girl, despicable!”

   “…What nonsense.” Sakai Quan Shui was a little sweet in his heart, holding her arm, “Anyway, we are together!”

   “Say yes!”

   “Yeah! It’s agreed!” Sakai Quanshui answered with certainty.

   She and herself are nothing more than dry corners of the heart, hoping for a sustenance.

   Back home, Sakai Izumi opened the drawer and quietly looked at the diary inside.

   After a long time, I took it out and spread it out. When he picked up the pen, there was a slight smile on the corner of his mouth.

   Twisted his hair and started writing.

  The mood of a twenty-five-year-old is not the same as that of a twenty-two-year-old.

  …

  From the perspective of Sakai Springs, there are only two events in the second half of the third year of Heisei.

  The first is the production and release of the WanderStar all-star album, as well as the series of performances related to it. There is no doubt about the sensation that he brought with all his strength. Every singer who has performed a song on this paper album has received many letters. Many people told how they gained strength from that song through text, expressing that they must persevere no matter what.

The    tour is designed to be of a public nature. Not only are some of the seats on site selected by the lucky audience through pure letter selection, but the income of the rest of the paid seats is also used to set up a charitable fund.

   The second one is related to Tao Zhiming.

   Sakai Izumi began to take the initiative to pay attention to more of his affairs.

   The “WanderFuture” charitable fund he initiated is a special aid fund for needy families, mainly for unemployment assistance. After Tao Zhiming initiated this charity fund through this album, Iwasaki’s family also joined in, which in turn led more wealthy people and convention clubs to join.

  Although Tao Zhiming told her that the fund can still benefit from financial investment, according to Sakai Quanshui, the fund has indeed done a lot of charity.

   In combination with this, there is a new club established by the best choice and Iwasaki’s home, specializing in cost-effective general consumer goods, and plans to open a chain store in Quan Neon. The supplying factories, 24-hour convenience stores and city brand stores with more products have also expressed their priority for hiring the unemployed.

   Seibu Holdings, which sold many of its assets, was restructured after refunding the advance payment to the first customers who subscribed for apartments in Osaki New Town. Osaki New Town has reopened, and this time it will not be sold as an existing home until it is completed. The exact price will be announced after completion.

  The price of real estate in Tokyo continues to fall, and there are still many people who have gone bankrupt because of excessive loans before. After the business at the bottom of the Gate of Heaven officially opened, no matter how much precautions were taken, it was still impossible to prevent some people from choosing to commit suicide there.

  Because of the high number of suicides, real estate prices at Heaven’s Gate have fallen even more than elsewhere. This time, there are no longer so many people who accuse Tao Zhiming and Kinoshita Xiufeng of pushing forward the construction of projects like Kaguracho and pushing up housing prices.

   In addition, Tao Zhiming accepted several questions and investigations because of the appalling “tail-sewed case”. A woman who started accumulating wealth by so-called “divination” ended up with a total loan of nearly 3 trillion yen. And she spread the magical “Gold Touching Technique” in Kansai. It turned out that there was a big reason for her stable income through the wealth of Onodera, which was able to maintain the turnover of her funds for a long time.

It is also believed that Tao Zhiming may have participated in the transfer of funds for the purchase of several floors of the Gate of Heaven for   500 billion yen.

   One wave after another, and then the “General House” case related to Takashi Koike broke out again. The four major securities companies were all involved, and even knowing that Koike Takashi also had a background in the extreme, Daiichi Koike Bank, Fuji Bank, etc. still lent him tens of billions of yen, and there were also companies affiliated with the consortium through the general office. It is suspected that the general meeting of shareholders can be carried out more smoothly.

   In addition, because of the involvement of the “General House Case”, another extreme figure, Fukumoto Xiong’s art bribery, money laundering and other cases. This time, it directly involves the cabinet, especially some officials of the Tibetan province, not to mention some directors of the consortium. The first to bear the brunt is the Yamaguchi-gumi Watanabe, who is closely related to Fukumoto, and Watanabe Akira, the executive of the Fuji Foundation.

   These two things are all related to Tao Zhiming.

   Sakai Springshui, who came home from get off work, was watching Tao Zhiming at the press conference in the news.

“Mr. Koike did invest 5 billion yen in wealth management products in Onodera Fortune, but Onodera Fortune just abides by a strict management system and manages the wealth for clients. Whether there is a problem with the source of the client’s funds, Onodera Fortune is not an inspection agency, there is no such thing. powers to investigate.”

Tao Zhiming defended to the reporter: “But Onodera Fortune has signed a clear agreement with all clients: if there is a problem with the client’s source of funds, the legal risk arising from it is borne by the client. As long as it involves crime, Onodera Fortune We will fully cooperate with the investigation, as we have always done in the past.”

“As for some real estate I bought at a low price from Chairman Tsutsumi Yoshiaki, this is a choice made by Chairman Tsutsumi based purely on the financial situation of the Seibu Group. The finance minister of Seibu Holdings committed suicide at the gate of heaven, and now It was found out that he cooperated with Fukumoto and obtained the loan through false financial information, but this matter has nothing to do with me. Are there any groundless accusations against me? Two years ago, Weekly Bunchun did it once!”

On the TV, Tao Zhiming calmly and confidently looked at the camera: “Ms. Ogami bought the real estate of the Gate of Heaven, and the price of 500 billion yen was reasonable at the time. Those were some of the best floors, and she had no idea about this offer. I can only understand that she is a return to Onodera’s wealth that has been creating income for her. Now those real estates belong to Ms. Ogami, and they are related to her case. It is up to the judiciary to deal with the freezing, liquidation and auction of assets. thing.”

   “It’s the same sentence: Onodera Fortune is only managing financial affairs for customers. If Onodera Fortune deliberately harms the interests of customers, then it is Onodera Fortune’s responsibility.” Tao Zhiming looked around, “This is my response, above.”

   He was completely different from the relaxed feeling on the yacht at that time.

   Looking at his solemn face and listening to the reluctant questions of the reporters, Sakai Quanshui gradually understood what he said at the beginning.

   “My world is already very complicated, whether it’s business affairs or women’s affairs.”

   Sakai Izumi watched the news and replaced it with another content, and walked to the phone with gritted teeth.

  I want to ask him if it is really troublesome.

   Tsutsumi Yoshiaki sold so many assets to him for the land price, and Osaki Xincheng accepted a capital injection from a friend of his in Kashima.

  Osamasu once entrusted hundreds of billions of yen-level funds to manage his finances, and spent 500 billion yen to purchase the real estate of the Gate of Heaven.

  The Inagawa Society and Yamaguchi-gumi, who have a close relationship with him, started a war in Kansai. Takashi Koike and Fukumoto-xiong, who had close ties with the Yamaguchi-gumi, also had financial transactions with Onodera Fortune.

   let go of his mind and paid attention to Sakai Quan Shui, who was concerned about Tao Zhiming, only to find that he was at the center of so many events.

  After he got married two years ago, the Wenchun incident quickly subsided, and Sakai Quanshui, who had been watching silently for a while, was not as worried as this time.

   The accusations against him have been going on for months, but now there are more and more incidents, big and small.

   After thinking for a long time, she picked up the receiver of the phone, pursed her lips and started dialing.

   “…Hello?” After the call was connected, she said, “I saw the news of the press conference just now…Is there any problem?”

   “No problem.” Tao Zhiming’s voice was quite surprised, “Are you worried?”

“…’There must be a conspiracy behind it’, ‘The problem is that the wealth of Onodera can’t be found out’, ‘So many people commit suicide at the gate of heaven, where is the real darkness in Tokyo…’ I heard a lot of such comments.” Sakai Quan Shui was indeed a little worried, “Is it really okay?”

  Tao Zhiming was very happy: “It’s really no problem. Although these things are complicated, everything is fine.”

   “Then…is it really your plan for many things?” Sakai Izumi couldn’t help but ask.

   Tao Zhiming was silent for a while before saying, “That’s right. So, the real battlefield is very cruel and dark.”

   Sakai Quan Shui trembled in his heart: “Then you…will you win?”

   “Sachiko-chan, do you want to care about these things?” Tao Zhiming asked.

   Sakai Izumi didn’t answer, all she wanted to care about was the person on the phone.

  Tao Zhiming went on to say: “Of course I will win. If things are really troublesome, how can I get along with Sachiko Puchi easily as Tao Jun?”

   “…well, it’s just…just caring from a friend!”

   “Yes, yes, I feel this feeling.” Tao Zhiming’s laughing tone made Sakai Quanshui think of him, “Thank you, Sachiko-chan.”

“…Good night then.”

   “Then see you at the Shikoku concert, good night.”

   put down the phone, Tao Zhiming looked at Ueda Xana’s sharp eyes and smiled shyly: “What’s wrong?”

   “Is this enough?” Ueda Xana said bitterly, “Sachiko-chan?”

  Tao Zhiming is right: “This is just a name in the process of music creation, so that everyone can communicate more easily with each other without being because of their identity!”

   “Did you just communicate with music?”

   “…After all, if I were defeated, WanderStar wouldn’t exist for treating members so well. What’s wrong with caring about this?”

   Ueda Xana directly kicked: “Bastard! Go to sleep somewhere else!”

   “…Then I’m going to Chiyo’s room.” Tao Zhiming was so thick-skinned.

   “…Come back!” Ueda Xana was angry and complained, “Do a good inspection, people always come here to commit suicide, this is about to become the biggest haunted house in Tokyo!”

   “Xana’s afraid, right?” Tao Zhiming hugged her tightly with a smile, and then started to rub her hands, “Smooth down, don’t be afraid, I don’t have any evil spirits here that dare to come.”

   “…I’m really scared.” Ueda Xana grimaced, “Don’t believe this! This building is made into a torii again…”

  Tao Zhiming’s eyes lit up: “If you’re afraid, why don’t you let more people live in the house? That way, even if I’m not around, the evil spirits won’t dare to come.”

   “…Damn, you bastard!” Ueda Xana gritted his teeth, stared at him and asked, “I thought you were tempted by the spring, now you’re finally going to attack her?”

  When I was in Rebun Island, I always looked at the Sakai Spring.

  Tao knew that his fate was not fooled, and he had already started to attack: “I know you are afraid, as long as I am in Tokyo, I will only attack you! Don’t wrong me.”

   Ueda Xana was out of breath soon: “You…you are…the biggest evil ghost!”

   “It’s a hungry ghost.” Tao Zhiming corrected, “It’s still Lord God. Don’t worry, no evil ghosts dare to approach my residence.”

   Hungry ghosts are haunted, and Ueda Xana has nothing to do.

After the hungry ghost was fully fed and lying beside him comfortably, Ueda Xana hugged him lazily, and then asked worriedly: “But now the price of the Gate of Heaven has fallen so badly, those rich friends who bought real estate back then , don’t really blame you?”

  Tao Zhiming didn’t care: “What’s to blame for me? Any investment is inherently risky. It’s all your own choice! Besides, everyone has to look forward.”

  It’s all your choice.

   Ueda Xana also thought about this sentence and sighed faintly.

  The sun rises as usual, and to the east is the gate of heaven in Tokyo Bay, as usual, the first to bathe in the light.

   Tao Zhiming gets up early in the morning and works out in the sports area by the pool.

   Downstairs, there is another police car there. It seems that last night was equally unsettled.

   Ueda Xana, who covered Jiro Ueda’s eyes, was going crazy: “Another one!”

“…Get used to it.”

   “Who should get used to this kind of thing!” Ueda Xana thought that he was going to go out later, and Chiyo was going to work at WanderStar during the day, and was really panicked, “How about I go back to Kyoto again?”

  Tao Zhiming thought about it and said: “If you feel scared during the day, it’s better to have more people. Let Yosuke’s wife come over to chat with you?”

   “…very restrained.” Ueda Xana thought of Yoko Takagi’s restrained appearance and felt uncomfortable.

   “Then let Ling bring the children over to play?”

   “Isn’t it okay to solve this problem completely? There is no way to prevent others from committing suicide here, right?”

  Tao Zhiming nodded in agreement: “Okay, almost enough.”

“…What’s the meaning?”

  Tao Zhiming put down the barbell: “It’s time to completely turn the gate of heaven into his own industry, so that others can’t easily come to the high floor!”
