There was no time to wonder what the hell was going on with the luxury stretch Cadillac.
After all, Matsumoto Keiko sent someone to summon them and was still waiting for them, so Okamoto Akira and Watabe Mitsuru couldn't wait too long.
They went to Matsumoto Keiko's office with their minds full of mysteries, and even forgot to maintain order in the office.
Even though the staff members were still standing in front of the window watching what was going on, they were talking a lot.
Unexpectedly, after knocking on the door and entering, the scene they saw refreshed their understanding of the world.
It was so incredible that they almost wondered if they were in a dream.
Because Keiko Matsumoto, who is dressed extremely gorgeously, is the owner of this office.
Not only did he take a second place on the sofa, accompanying someone, but he also diligently served him tea and water.
As for the person sitting in the middle of the sofa, enjoying all this carelessly, he turned out to be a strange guy wearing a driver's uniform!
The key is...so...so young!
And I have to admit, he looks very handsome!
How is this going?
Just at this glance, Okamoto Akira and Watanabe Mitsuru couldn't help but start to turn dark.
Whether it was due to the loyalty of their subordinates or the self-esteem of a man, they all felt an unspeakable sense of humiliation and could not bear to look at the eye-catching scene in front of them.
Moreover, they also felt sorry for Keiko Matsumoto based on the plot of the story they had guessed based on their imagination.
Bastard! Where did this pretty boy come from!
As a driver, how dare you not uphold your duties? It's so rude!
Matsumoto-san is Japan’s national goddess!
She is the dream lover of many men!
You guy, how do you deserve to be treated like this!
Matsumoto-san, what's wrong with you?
But who would have thought that before the shock had passed, Matsumoto Keiko's next words actually made them extremely depressed, and they couldn't even think about it.
It was a mouthful of old blood that had been held back for a lifetime and was about to burst out.
"Ah, Okamoto-san, Watanabe-san, you are here. Please come and sit down. I want to formally introduce to you. This is my fiancé..."
Not...fiancé!?
Oh my gosh!
It has actually reached the stage of discussing marriage.
Bagya Road!
Has Matsumoto-san completely fallen into this young man's grasp?
What a cruel reality this is!
Could it be that even a movie queen like Matsumoto-san, who has never been unfaithful towards men, cannot escape the fate of being deceived by men?
Could it be... could it be... that I decided to get married and retire because I completely lost confidence in my career?
But... no matter who you marry, you must never marry such a driver!
The other party is penniless and has nothing to lose, and the more handsome he is, the more dangerous he is.
This is very fatal. No matter how you look at it, Matsumoto-san is the one who suffers.
Doesn’t this guy rely on this to make a living?
Or maybe the enemy was sent here specifically to cause a scandal and further destroy Matsumoto-san's career?
Matsumoto-san? You are clearly blinded by love...
These are the thoughts shared by Akira Okamoto and Mitsuru Watabe.
Not to mention the calm-tempered Mitsuru Watabe, even Akira Okamoto, who had already decided to resign, was unwilling to watch Matsumoto Keiko embark on such a path of no return.
So the two of them were so anxious that they both ignored etiquette.
He didn't bother to talk to the "driver" at all, he just scrambled to persuade Matsumoto Keiko to think twice.
"Matsumoto-san, don't be discouraged. Difficulties are temporary, but marriage is something that will affect your life's happiness! Please be extra cautious and reconsider! And in view of the outside world's attention to your exposed photos, please forgive me for being abrupt.
, the most important thing you should do is to stay away from all members of the opposite sex for the time being, and try to avoid any possibility of aggravating the rumors!"
Watanabe was so anxious that he was sweating profusely and very anxious.
Okamoto Akira simply borrowed flowers to offer to Buddha based on what Watanabe Mitsuru had just reprimanded him for.
"Yes. Why are you like this? Why do you announce your marriage so hastily? Do you want to end this firm? Have you forgotten the promise you made in public when everyone followed you from Shochiku to open the firm? You can't do this
He suddenly decided to abandon us all!"
By occupying the moral high ground in this way, coupled with the sincere kindness and anxiety of the two people, Matsumoto Keiko's mouth was immediately blocked, making it impossible for her to continue talking.
However, the transfer of the right to speak only lasts for a moment.
The young man in driver's uniform took the initiative to speak.
And it was his words that gave Matsumoto Keiko the initiative.
Let Okamoto Akira and Watanabe Mitsuru shut up completely and no longer have the courage to interrupt.
"I feel the loyalty of the two of you to Keiko very clearly. As expected, as Keiko said, you two are worthy of her trust. However, I am afraid that you two have misunderstood, which is why you are so excited, so I think it is necessary
Let’s do some clarification first.”
"First of all, Qingzi and I have no intention of announcing our marriage hastily. Our engagement is just because Qingzi trusts you and thinks you should know about it. Of course, we still need you to keep it secret for the time being. As for the
When we finally get married, we have to get the consent and blessings of each other's families before we can decide."
"Secondly, we have no intention of closing the firm. On the contrary, the reason why we are here together today is actually to resolve the public opinion crisis some time ago and to better develop and expand this firm. Regarding some plans
The facts are inseparable from the full assistance of the two of you, and we need your cooperation. Please be more patient and listen to what Qingzi has to say. I believe that you will feel at ease and satisfied with this."
"One last thing, please don't be confused by my uniform. I am not a driver, but a businessman from China. The only reason why I appear here is to deceive others. You should know
Yes, there are still reporters staring at Qingzi. To prevent us from being photographed together by reporters and making random news. Okay, I'm done with what I want to say."
Afterwards, Ning Weimin handed his business cards to two people respectively.
After hearing this, Akira Okamoto and Mitsuru Watabe glanced at Ning Weimin, showing expressions of surprise.
When they took the business card, they were even more speechless when they saw the details.
Because not only are the names of three companies, Dadao Trading Company, Huiwentang Bookstore, and Tangong Restaurant, printed on it.
Ning Weimin's name is always preceded by the title "President".
The key is the addresses of the three companies, which are located in Akasaka, Nishi-Azabu and Ginza, three places in Tokyo where land is at a premium.
This is amazing!
The operating costs of these three places alone are not a small amount.
Particularly in Tannomiya Restaurant, part of the shares held by Matsumoto Keiko was one of the accusations that public opinion suspected that she had made unethical transactions.
Of course, Okamoto Akira and Watanabe Mitsuru also have some knowledge of this high-end restaurant.
Therefore, it is completely impossible for these companies to be pocket companies!
This young man seems...a bit powerful.
So involuntarily, the two people who were just like red-eyed chickens suddenly felt an inexplicable pressure.
Their attitude toward Ning Weimin also changed as a result, and they all bowed their heads and apologized.
"I'm sorry. Ning Sang, I was rude just now."
"Please forgive me, President Ning, it was us who were rude."
This is called talking from a position of strength.
However, this is nothing, until Matsumoto Keiko continues to talk about the things she and Ning Weimin have discussed.
Each piece of plan was placed in front of Akira Okamoto and Mitsuru Watabe, and the effect was like a mental bomb that exploded indiscriminately.
All of a sudden, the two right-hand men were stunned.
"What? What do you mean, do you mean that we want to announce to the public that you are advertising for Pierre Cardin's suitcases? Tell the media that the shares in those restaurants are your compensation for filming advertisements and brand endorsements?"
Akira Okamoto was the first to feel dizzy, simply because he couldn't find the north, south, east, west, or south due to such a magical operation.
"Yes. We have discussed it, and we all think that the public should accept this reason. Those unfavorable rumors will be cleared away." Matsumoto Keiko nodded.
"That's true, but the problem is that you have been abandoned by advertisers for a long time because of the supernatural incident of paper towels. Although Ningsang's Da Dao Trading Company has the agency rights of Pierre Cardon Company, and is also the president of Tan Gong Restaurant, for
This matter can be settled with one word. But the media will also be curious and suspicious because of this, right? Why are international companies suddenly looking for you to shoot advertisements? I'm afraid it may stimulate reporters to investigate to the end. If they really find out that you and
Ning Sang has such a relationship, maybe it will cause a bigger disturbance..."
It must be said that Akira Okamoto's concerns were justified. Matsumoto Keiko hesitated because of this and looked at Ning Weimin hesitantly.
But how could a shrewd person like Ning Weimin be stumped by such a small problem?
He just frowned slightly and thought for a moment, then quickly opened his brows.
"Okamoto-san, there is a situation that I haven't told you yet. I not only have the agency rights for Pierre Cardon's trolley suitcase products in Japan, I am also a shareholder of China's Pierre Cardon Company. If reporters are curious, then
It couldn't be better. At that time, I can promote my trolley suitcase and do some advertising."
"We should take the opportunity to tell the media that this trolley suitcase is an epoch-making new travel product that can make the elderly and women who travel feel effortlessly prepared. But this product is also purely imported and is a product of China's Pierre Cardin
The products designed and produced by the head office have nothing to do with Pierre Cardon Co., Ltd. in Japan."
"As for why China pilcaton decided to hire Qingzi as its spokesperson? That's because in mainland China, everyone is an atheist and has long broken down feudal superstitions. On the contrary, in our opinion, Qingzi is as beautiful as she has
It is incredible that a big star with such a noble temperament and such prestige does not represent any commercial brands. We are lucky enough to have Keiko do exclusive advertising for us, which is undoubtedly a very cost-effective thing."
"We can even tell reporters this way, saying that China Pilkington Company originally planned to pay 60 million yen in advertising endorsement fees in exchange for Keiko's nod. This is because Keiko is more reasonable and likes the palace cuisine of Dan Palace.
Only then did we accept Tanggong’s shares in exchange, so from the perspective of China Pierre Cardon, this is a transaction that satisfies both of us, and from which both parties can enhance trust and benefit.”
Six...sixty million yen!
Hearing Ning Weimin's figures, Watanabe Mitsuru, who was in charge of finance, couldn't help but sigh.
He is the most sensitive to money figures. He said in his heart, this bullshit is exaggerated.
Because this is equivalent to 400,000 US dollars. Where can such a price be found under normal circumstances?
When Matsumoto-san competed for major companies and was the darling of domestic advertising, his endorsement fee was only 30 million yen.
Sixty million. Once such a quotation is exported, it is equivalent to raising Matsumoto-san's price by half.
Keiko Matsumoto herself smiled because of her lover's praise and affirmation in person.
Although what Ning Weimin said was just to unify his external rhetoric, even though Matsumoto Keiko didn't care about the so-called net worth at all.
But because these words came from Ning Weimin's mouth, Matsumoto Keiko was still moved and extremely satisfied. She felt that her lover was the person who knew how to appreciate her best in the world.
As for Akira Okamoto, who was most concerned at the beginning and thought that there were many loopholes in this matter, he did not expect that Ning Weimin could add holes so easily, so he was dumbfounded.
After thinking about it over and over in my mind for a long time, it seems that there is indeed no loophole in Ning Weimin's argument.
How about...just give it a try?
Akira Okamoto leaned on the back of the sofa and thought for a while alone.
I think... it's okay. Anyway, there is no loss in trying it. Ning Weimin has considered this matter so carefully, so the risk should not be very big.
In turn, he gained a deeper understanding of Ning Weimin's ability and shrewdness through these words.
For no other reason than to eliminate the influence of public opinion on behalf of Keiko Matsumoto.
They can also promote their own products and companies, and at the same time push up Matsumoto Keiko's net worth. This strategy of killing multiple birds with one stone is simply perfect.
If he hadn't seen Ning Weimin's appearance with his own eyes, he wouldn't have been able to believe what a young man could do and the tricks he could come up with.
He had to admit that there seemed to be a reason why people could succeed in their careers at such a young age.
It seems that I am still superficial.
No wonder Matsumoto-san fell in love with him. This guy has good looks and wealth, and they are indeed a good match.
I just don’t know if this guy is carefree or not?
As a result, when Okamoto Akira thought of this, he was worried about Matsumoto Keiko.
Ning Weimin saw his thoughtful expression and misunderstood, thinking that he still had some worries that he couldn't let go of.
He simply opened Matsumoto Keiko's briefcase and placed a document in front of him.
"What is this?" Okamoto woke up and was a little surprised.
"The entrustment contract of China Pilkington Company. Both parties have signed it and it has been stamped. During the holiday, I asked the capital to send it to you. If you are still not at ease, just show this contract to
The media is optimistic about it.”
Ning Weimin's explanation immediately convinced Okamoto Akira.
I thought to myself, this young man is so methodical in doing things, and there is nothing missing!
There’s nothing more to say, there’s nothing to worry about.
In this case, this matter is basically true, so what else does the media have to doubt?
