Under this situation, Ning Weimin was completely in a panic.
Because it was so sudden and he had no experience in dealing with it, how could he have expected that the situation would deteriorate to this point in a short period of time?
To be honest, he now really regrets being so smart and insisting on recruiting Matsumoto Keiko to be the shareholder.
The fame of celebrities who dare to love is not so easy to gain.
Is this considered self-entrapment, digging a hole for oneself and burying oneself?
But all said and done, under the current situation, Ning Weimin's worry for himself was far less than his worry for Matsumoto Keiko.
Because in today's era, in today's Japan, there is serious inequality between men and women.
Public opinion's attitudes and harshness towards men and women are also completely different.
The public is more tolerant of men, and traditional culture leads to stricter treatment of women, so the public is also more harsh on female stars.
For example, it is also cheating, engaging in extramarital affairs and having an affair.
But male celebrities in the entertainment industry are basically forgiven by the public after cheating.
It is generally believed that men just cannot resist temptation and are seduced by women, and the fault lies with the woman.
Therefore, when male celebrities make mistakes, they can still appear in front of the public after a period of time and regain public recognition.
But female stars in the entertainment industry can no longer show their faces.
Once the crime is confirmed, no matter when someone appears, someone will say all sorts of very unfriendly things, and it will be impossible to start a career.
In addition, it is also because there are more girls who follow stars, and these female fans will guide public opinion for their idols, making it easier for male stars to come back.
But because female celebrities are all male fans, they rarely have this kind of consistent and loyal support for celebrities.
The end of the road is the fate of most female celebrities who make mistakes.
Therefore, Matsumoto Keiko will face much harsher conditions and bear corresponding consequences than Ning Weimin.
It is very likely that her acting career will be destroyed as this incident continues to ferment.
But Ning Weimin is different. Ginza Danggong is just a cover for him to come to Tokyo, not his core interest, and it will not hurt his muscles and bones no matter what.
But in that case, how should he deal with himself, and how can he face the person he loves calmly?
Therefore, at this time, Ning Weimin could no longer think about how strange and unfair this incident was.
He only cares about how troubled and sad Matsumoto Keiko is when she suffers a terrible disaster.
He just wanted to quickly contain this public turmoil, and then apologize to Keiko Matsumoto in person for the consequences he had caused.
Even if he had to compromise with that hateful newspaper and spend a lot of money to buy peace, he seemed to be able to accept it.
As long as this thorny problem can be solved.
But at this time, the house leaked and it rained all night.
Ning Weimin never expected that someone would be so bold as to come to the Tan Palace branch in Ginza to cause trouble.
Completely ignoring the special nature of this location and the fact that the altar palace is a Chinese state-owned asset, he even made an extremely rude and irritating request.
So this incident also gave Ning Weimin a sudden enlightenment and he woke up.
I finally realized that there were human factors in this public turmoil. It turned out that someone was full of malicious intentions and was specifically targeting Matsumoto Keiko.
On the afternoon of April 25, around six o'clock in the evening, the setting sun was still hanging on the horizon.
At this time, the lights in Ginza's shopping streets were already on. Not only were people coming off work starting to appear on the street, but the waitresses were rushing to work in various bars.
It is the time when there are the most people on the streets of Ginza, the peak of commuting, and the eve of the peak of customers at Ginza Danmiya.
Ning Weimin was walking from Wako Department Store in Ginza, and he bought a newspaper on the way.
All I could think about was worrying about the newspapers not reporting any more shocking news.
As a result, when I walked to the street where my store was located, I saw a strange scene.
On the street outside Ginza Dangu Shrine, there were actually a dozen men and women with bows on their collars and black vests, looking up at the stairs.
Without exception, they are all Japanese employees recruited by Ginza Danmiya.
Under normal circumstances, just one person standing at the door to solicit customers is enough.
When so many people gather together, it is easy to attract wide attention from passers-by, but it has the opposite effect.
Instead, it announced something unusual here, causing pedestrians passing by to speed up their pace.
Ning Weimin walked over a little unhappy.
"What happened?"
When these employees saw Ning Weimin, they all bowed and greeted him, and then they all came forward and surrounded Ning Weimin.
"President, you are here..."
"Why are you all out? Are you taking care of the business in the store?"
"Something happened in the store. Some aggressive customers were unhappy. They made a lot of noise and smashed things. All the customers in the store were scared away. We didn't dare to stay in the store..."
"What happened?"
This question made all the Japanese employees look embarrassed, and suddenly a clerk came over with a low voice.
"President, a customer said there was a fly in the meal??"
"What? How is it possible?"
Ning Weimin couldn't believe it.
Tan Palace’s restaurants adopt Western-style kitchen hygiene requirements.
The kitchen must be cleaned every day, and there must be no blind spots, and it must be fully disinfected.
Especially here in Japan, because we know that Japanese people pay attention to details, they pay even more attention to everything in the kitchen.
Every time before serving food, if you are afraid that a strand of hair may fall out, someone will look at it carefully before leaving the food.
Besides, this month is not summer when flies gather together.
To put it bluntly, even Kyoto Danmiya wouldn’t have such a problem, so how could the Danmiya branch in Ginza eat a fly?
Is it possible that the Japanese also have porcelain?
When Ning Weimin was about to ask further, the BP machine in his arms rang. He took out the phone and saw that it was the store's phone.
Knowing that the situation was urgent, he didn't dare to delay any longer and strode towards the entrance of the store.
"President, don't go in, those people are so scary."
"Yeah, he looks like a gang member."
The timid Japanese were making a fuss, jabbering, and trying to dissuade Ning Weimin from going in.
Ning Weimin didn't know whether to be angry or laugh at their kindness.
After saying "You are all waiting here", he turned around and walked quickly up the stairs.
Walking into the store, it's a different scene.
No wonder the little devils were scared away, and the scene was indeed tense.
I saw four men in black suits with arrogant attitudes and using pure "Bagya Road" to confront the people in the store.
It seemed like something had been thrown, the cups and plates were in a mess, and the floor was covered with debris.
And the Chinese employees in the store are not shy either.
These young soldiers are different from the Japanese who hide when trouble comes. They are very united.
Even the chefs in the kitchen ran out and stood next to the brothers in the restaurant with the same hatred and hatred, looking at the Japanese with cold eyebrows.
The most rare thing is that in the face of such a situation, everyone can maintain basic emotional restraint.
Although the atmosphere was tense and everyone looked unhappy, no one spoke with Beijing accent and yelled at them.
Only two security officers, Bian Gang and Zheng Qiang, who were good at Japanese, were patiently negotiating with those people, with serious expressions and neither being humble nor overbearing. This is their professionalism.
The only strange thing was that a Japanese man in a suit was sitting casually on the sofa, smoking a cigarette, surrounded by smoke.
He was about thirty years old, and seeing his nonchalant and comfortable look, Ning Weimin immediately understood.
This guy should be the leader of this group of people and the culprit today.
Perhaps seeing Ning Weimin approaching, the Chinese employees in the restaurant all showed happy expressions and even took the initiative to get out of the way.
The person who was originally sitting on the sofa also realized the different status of Ning Weimin and stood up immediately.
"Are you the president of this restaurant?"
"Yes, I am."
The man took out a stack of business cards from his pocket, picked one out, and handed it to Ning Weimin with a dimpled smile on his cheeks.
"I asked the clerk of your store to call and invite you here. I didn't expect it to be so soon. This is my business card."
He buttoned the front buttons of his suit, leaned forward and said, which seemed quite polite.
Ning Weimin looked at the business card.
Shiro Numa, Director of Public Relations of the Toto House Association
Because he was wearing the Sumiyoshikai logo, Ning Weimin was immediately sure that he was indeed a gang member.
The corporateization of Yakuza is also a relatively unique legal blind spot in Japan.
"I happened to have just arrived downstairs."
Ning Weimin suppressed his anger and bowed slightly. He still had to be polite.
Don't be afraid if Yakuza comes to trouble you. For businessmen, everything can be negotiated, and it is always a good thing to be able to negotiate.
As long as you can understand the other party's intention, it is possible to solve the problem.
Businessmen are afraid of being brainless and emotional reckless men, who often cause immeasurable personal and property losses.
If it's even worse for a poor man, he might not even be able to get compensation.
"Excuse me, what happened to make you so excited?"
"We came to eat here because we heard that this is a restaurant owned by a famous movie star. But we didn't expect that the dining experience was very unpleasant. The hygienic conditions of your restaurant are so bad that there were flies in the last dish. Look at this
What should I do?"
The other party thought that Ning Weimin was a little scared, so his tone became tougher, poking at the catering company's Achilles' heel.
But Ning Weimin was unmoved. He had already anticipated the general situation, so he just said calmly.
"What do you mean, guest? What do you want me to do?"
"Of course I want you to compensate me and apologize."
"How much compensation? How to apologize?"
"If you eat something dirty, you have to go to the hospital for a check-up. The check-up for the five of us will cost at least five million yen. Of course, you have to be sincere in your apology. You have to let the female star come in person. After all, we
She came here because she is a shareholder of this restaurant. Since she advertises her restaurant on TV and attracts customers, she should be responsible for this."
Since the contact, the other party's tone of voice has been quite gentle, but the way he raised his chin and looked up at Ning Weimin with his white eyes was arrogant and unpleasant.
As for the words now, they are no more than trying to make a fool of themselves, and the blackmail intention of these Yakuzas is extremely obvious.
So as soon as these demands came out, Ning Weimin was sure that the other party was prepared and deliberately looking for trouble.
This kind of scene is very similar to some scenes expressed in Takeshi Kitano's movie "The Greatest Evil".
But he is not the fool who always compromises and is played around in the movie.
"In this case, I'm afraid I will disappoint you. Frankly speaking, I am absolutely sure about the hygiene of the restaurant, and the situation you mentioned will never happen. So it is impossible for me to agree to such conditions."
"Are you sure? Do you mean we are lying? It's really nerve-wracking. Do you even have to evade the responsibilities that you should bear? In this case, there is nothing I can do. I will notify the newspaper and let the media expose you.
The hygienic condition of this restaurant is terrible. I really don’t know how you passed the health inspection of the health center. I will hold the health center accountable until they close your restaurant..."
Such conditions were too rude, and Ning Weimin expected the other party not to agree.
It was just that Ning Weimin refused without hesitation. Such a firmness surprised the other party.
So after finishing these words, the leader named Swamp looked back at his men in an exaggerated manner.
A short man approached immediately and threatened him arbitrarily in a long voice unique to the underworld.
"Hey, you guy, don't be ungrateful. We have evidence. If you want to evade responsibility and refuse to admit your fault, why don't you? Asshole, take a good look at the business card. We are from Sumiyoshi-kai. You Chinese people are really stupid! Not at all.
Do you know who you have offended?"
As soon as these words were said, Bian Gang and Zheng Qiang became a little impatient. They were really confusing black and white and were so bullying.
As soon as they moved, the other party also gathered together to take a tough stance, becoming more and more excited and making strange screams.
"Why, do you still want to beat up the customers? We are experts in fighting!"
"Haha, I can beat three of you one by one! Do you want to try? You idiots who run restaurants!"
Ning Weimin quickly waved his hand in frustration, telling his people not to be impulsive.
Although Bian Gang and Zheng Qiang have received special training, beating these little devils is no problem.
But once you actually take action, the nature will be different, and it will be even harder to deal with.
But the other party was so proud now that they mistakenly thought that Ning Weimin was afraid of them, so they geared up even more and uttered filthy words.
How else to say that gangsters are like bullets?
Because if you are weak, he will be strong.
But in fact, since Ning Weimin saw that something was fishy and knew that there was a reason for it, how could he be frightened by them?
So to their surprise, Ning Weimin laughed and used another very civilized way to attack their arrogance.
"You are the so-called Yakuza, right? I only heard about it before, but today I really learned it. Let's not beat around the bush, let's just say it directly. What if I say that I don't want to agree to your conditions? I
How about choosing to call the police?”
When the police were mentioned, it was their turn to blush. They felt that Ning Weimin was mocking them, which was a bit off guard.
"Bagaya Road, do you look down on us? We are a company owned by Sumiyoshi Kai. If you have the guts, say it again?"
"You still dare to call the police? Are you talking drunkenly? It's all your fault, okay? The police won't support you even if they come!"
"Chinese people, are you okay with your brains? If you really make a big deal out of it, there will be no more customers in your restaurant..."
