Chapter 413: Kanagawa Surf

The dean who was thrown away by the bodyguard became angry and ran back angrily, jabbering a lot.

He had friends and acquaintances present.

I guess I didn't want to lose face, so I came back to find a place.

In fact, when he saw several bodyguards, he already understood that Su Yehao was not easy to mess with. However, when he thought about the possibility of rumors spreading in the afternoon, he would not be able to hold his head high and act like a good person in the future, so he had to act tougher.

The obsession with saving face is one of the typical characteristics of Japanese people.

Even if you make a mistake, as long as you don't admit it, you definitely haven't made a mistake.

The university hospital is an ivory tower.

The internal pyramid structure is much more serious than that of private companies like SK2. Perhaps it is because it is sought after by people all day long, which makes it easy for people to bloat.

Anyway, this old man in his forties seemed to be exploding at the moment, speaking very loudly.

When asked what was said, Su Yehao really didn't understand a word... except for the word "Baga!"

Eat the wagyu beef which is undercooked.

Su Yehao put down his chopsticks, looked sideways at the dean who was standing not far away, and curiously asked the bodyguard: "Is this guy scolding me?"

Among the bodyguards are two from Hong Kong, and the others are temporarily hired from Tokyo.

Someone who knew both English and Japanese heard Su Yehao's question and explained vaguely: "No problem, leave it to us..."

Su Yehao ignored him and asked the frustrated dean directly in English: "Hey! Which hospital do you work in? It's best to be polite to me, or you will lose your job."

Hospital doctors often need to read foreign papers.

And Japan particularly admires American medical technology. If any doctor becomes famous in the United States, his income after returning to work in Japan will be much higher than that of his peers.

The middle-aged dean understood what he said, and his whole body froze, his head spinning rapidly.

Look at Su Yehao's posture surrounded by eight bodyguards, and then listen to his "fluent" English, coupled with the understatement that made him lose his job... I don't know what the dean thought, but he suddenly started to understand, and after finishing his clothes

, bowed and walked back to the dining table as if nothing had happened.

Seeing this, Nong Qingying almost burst into laughter.

Su Yehao also couldn't laugh or cry. He finally prepared to bully someone, but before he started, the other party was silent. His bowing posture was so standard that he really couldn't find any reason to continue to fight.

Whether it is through the relationship with First Quanye Bank, asking someone to contact several media outlets for help, or spending a small amount of money to find a few private investigators to examine the other party's daily life with a magnifying glass, there is a chance that the other party will lose their job.

In a hospital, no one can guarantee that no mistakes will be made 100% of the time.

If you make nitpicks too often, the reputation of the hospital will deteriorate. Since you are the director, you must be responsible.

After all, we are not in the same group, and we are in Tokyo.

It's a little troublesome for people who are unfamiliar with the place, but it can definitely be done, and Su Yehao doesn't even need to worry about it himself.

Continue to sit and eat.

The other bodyguards left first, leaving three of them to continue guarding.

At the beginning, I wasn't used to having bodyguards around me, but after getting used to it for so long, Su Yehao has already gotten used to it.

Nong Qingying didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, and asked the Teppanyaki guy who knew English: "Why is he so bully and afraid of the strong?"

The young man who was frying shrimp explained in a low voice:

"University hospitals have extremely high invisible income. Who is willing to struggle with money and risk losing their position as dean? I am a medical student and working part-time, so I know a little bit about it. In addition, I may be worried that I will suddenly slip into the hospital after work at night.

In the sea, it’s a bit scary to have so many subordinates for dinner.”

Su Yehao waved his hand and said with a smile: "I am a serious businessman, please sprinkle more salt on me, the taste is too bland..."

The portions of each dish are too small.

One prawn per person, and after finishing the meal, we eagerly watched the grilled mullet roe.

Just because you are not full, you will feel that the food is delicious and you must savor every bite.

Su Yehao was really "speechless" and simply ordered a staple food first, abalone and truffle fried rice, which cost more than 30,000 yen. It was said that the white truffles were flown from Italy.

Unexpectedly, I had to wait for about half an hour to make fried rice. I was waiting for it, and suddenly I started thinking about rice with roasted radish and broth.

I was just idle, chatting with the teppanyaki guy.

The other party asked Su Yehao if there were really eight hospitals in his home. If you include the Pengcheng Private Hospital under construction, this number is not wrong. There are also some small clinics that are not included.

When he learned the name of the Port City Earl Medical Group, the extremely slow Teppanyaki guy actually said he had heard of it and replied that a senior fellow had been hired there with a high salary and had recently published a paper on titanium alloy implants.

Su Yehao had never paid much attention to the medical group managed by Mrs. Tang, but only after listening to others talking about it did he realize that it seemed to be quite good, and it cooperated with Cambridge Medical School.

From a business perspective, I have never heard of any chain hospital being particularly valuable, but there are many drug sellers in the Fortune 500, and it is easy to make a fortune by running a chain pharmacy business.

Having experienced the magic of making wealth on the Internet, other businesses always feel ordinary.

However, there is a good hospital at home, which makes Su Yehao feel very safe. No wonder my grandpa suffered two strokes in succession and suffered from serious and minor illnesses. Until now, he can still stand up and walk a few steps. He even joked that he wanted to be like the King of Gamblers, who is more than 70 years old.

I will give birth to a son again when I am 10 years old.

Just chatting.

After dinner, we took a walk and bought some new clothes with Nong Qingying.

Walking to the door of a gallery, he found that an art exhibition was being held inside. When he saw a familiar pattern through the window, Su Yehao couldn't help being stunned, and pulled Nong Qingying in.

Let's look at the poster first. It shows that this is a special exhibition of Hokusai's paintings, including "The Great Wave off Kanagawa," which will become popular in the future. It is hung at the entrance.

A very small painting, more than 20 centimeters long and 30 centimeters wide, not as big as the shopping bag in Su Yehao's hand.

He asked the gallery staff in English: "Excuse me, are these paintings authentic works by the artist?"

"Hello, of course they are all real and original. It took collectors twenty years to collect them. The ones taken out this time are all the best-preserved ones, except for "Thirty-six Views of Mount Fuji" "In addition to the complete set, there are ten scenes that were printed later, for a total of forty-six."

After listening to the shopping guide, Su Yehao raised his eyebrows and asked her: "What do you mean, this painting is more than one?"

I really don't know how to do it.

I thought I could pick it up easily, but after asking, I learned that these were prints.

Thousands of copies were printed more than a hundred years ago, but not many are well preserved, making them very rare.

Don't be afraid if there are similar works. Occasionally circulating them can actually stimulate price increases.

For example, Van Gogh's "Sunflowers" and Monet's "Water Lilies" are similar, but they are still very expensive.

After asking about the price, the tour guide told him that it was not for retail sale and that the whole set was priced at 100 million yen, which is about 690,000 US dollars.

Katsushika Hokusai's ukiyo-e works are not that popular yet. They belong to a niche collection in Japan. Three days after the exhibition began, they have not been sold yet, which shows that the price of 100 million yen is probably a bit high.

Su Yehao, who didn't understand the market, thought it was worth spending a little money to take a gamble.

Even if he doesn't become popular, with the scale of his investment in the Internet industry, he can still customize his own news for publicity. Over time, the reputation of his work will definitely increase, and the price will also rise.

Thinking of this, Su Yehao vaguely grasped the traffic code for the appreciation of artworks, and it seemed that he could completely promote his collection by himself.

The more people know about a certain work, the higher its value. Isn’t this much easier than attending an exhibition?

100 million yen was not worth bothering with, so Su Yehao made the decision on the spot to take it.

So, I tentatively quoted a price of US$500,000 and asked the shopping guide to contact the buyer to ask.

Before all the forty-six prints were appreciated, the tour guide came back quickly, with a smile on his face, and said that the buyer agreed to seal the deal.

...Although the price was reduced by more than 100,000 US dollars, Su Yehao was still heartbroken.

Sure enough, I was given more.

After signing the contract and cashing the check, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

The art exhibition ended early. Forty-six paintings were packed into volumes and sent to Su Yehao. The total cost was US$575,000, of which US$75,000 was the commission paid to the gallery, and a set of 1970 reprints was included. Printed engravings from the same series.

The buyer pays a 15% commission, and the seller also needs to pay 10%. It’s no wonder that the gallery can be opened in Ginza, where land is so valuable.

After looking through the two sets of works he received, Su Yehao felt that he was at a huge loss.

Because of the 1970 reprint, the colors are brighter and the patterns are clearer.

On the contrary, the original version bought at a high price appeared to be in tatters, with insects gnawing on it in some places and stains...
