Iwahashi Shinichi was listening silently when the person in charge of Yomiuri TV looked at him and abruptly dropped the topic, "In all the times Iwahashi-san has been to Osaka, have you ever paid a visit to the proprietress Onoe?"
Iwahashi Shinichi joked and replied, "The threshold there is very high and I can't get over it."
The person in charge laughed loudly, "If Iwahashi-san wants to ask Boss Onoe for help, it might go smoothly." He said with emotion, "Even Iwahashi-san from Tokyo knows the name of Boss Onoe."
Iwahashi Shinichi was vague and said politely, "I have heard a little bit that there is such a famous figure in Osaka."
On the territory of the Kansai people, he came to contact the heads of these two companies again to build relationships for entering Osaka next year. Iwahashi Shinichi made up his mind to be a compliment, leaving the person in charge who initiated the topic with something to show off.
Although Osaka's Onoe proprietress is famous today, she is not a mysterious figure.
"The proprietress of a restaurant in Kansai borrowed hundreds of billions of yen from the bank." A year or two ago, magazines were exaggerating the legend of this Onoe proprietress.
During the heyday of the bubble, such instant rich people appeared every now and then.
For example, Kitaro Watanabe, who used a few pieces of land in his hands to speculate in real estate, took advantage of the opportunity to become one of the top ten in Forbes. Or he started out as a geriatric clinic, and also relied on collaborating with banks to speculate in real estate, and his net worth reached tens of billions of dollars.
Sasaki Yoshinosuke.
Compared with these two rich men, Qian Changfu, known as the "King of Real Estate in the Song Industry", is just a pawn.
As for the various "stock gods", there used to be countless. However, after the Nikkei stock index collapsed, the stories of the stock gods also changed one after another. The media and the public are well versed in the way of writing it off.
The end of the stock gods is ahead, and the future of the real estate gods is also clearly visible. Knowing that something will eventually come to fruition, but not knowing when it will come to fruition, is both unsettling and at the same time arouses a subtle sense of expectation.
.
The proprietress of Onoe first became famous in the world, just when the stock market was booming. The proprietress of the restaurant was said to know the art of psychics and could talk to the toad fairy, so she could control the trends of the stock market. At that time, the stock market was going crazy.
During the rising period, basically whatever you buy will go up. This divination technique used by the proprietress Ogami can be called the Oriental version of "you will get numb if you stamp on it".
Gods are the most beloved in the world. There are eight million folk gods in Japan, and one more goddess is not much.
But the God of Divination is just one of the many legends about the proprietress Onoe. Her biggest legend is written in a magazine. As the proprietress of a restaurant, she can borrow hundreds of billions of yen from the bank. One person is worth a large listed company.
enterprise.
Therefore, even though the stories of the stock gods have come to an end, the goddess of Ogami boss is still strong.
"When you go to the Ogami proprietress's shop, everything must be done by her." The person in charge of Yomiuri TV said sternly, "If you want to drink, drink it all in one go. If there is any leftover wine in the glass, the proprietress will be angry.
"
"This is not like being a guest." Iwahashi Shinichi smiled.
The person in charge laughed loudly after hearing this, "Why would a person who wants to drink go to a place like that?"
This is telling the truth.
The reason why the proprietress Onoe’s restaurant is so prosperous is not because her restaurant has become a famous social place in Kansai’s financial circles. If you want to meet some business figures, if you can please the proprietress, you will get twice the result with half the effort. People in the financial world
If you want to connect emotionally and exchange information, the boss lady's cooking booth is also the best place.
In order to please the landlady, wealthy people went to show their courtesy and swept the floor for her in suits and leather shoes.
After Japan implemented financial liberalization, companies have a variety of ways to raise funds, and they are no longer limited to borrowing money from banks. In order to expand their business, banks have to send receptionists to ask for money everywhere.
In the bubble era, individuals wanted to get rich, companies wanted to expand, and banks were also full of ambitions. If it were not for his ambition, Sumitomo Bank's Tenha Isoda would not have been able to step down. Before he sadly stepped down, Sumitomo Bank had just overwhelmed the lending business. He became the first Quanye Bank and Mitsubishi Bank and became the most famous bank in the banking industry.
As a result, everything is mirrored.
For Kansai's business community, Onoe proprietress is indispensable. Her cooking booth has become a stage for people from all walks of life to communicate with each other. The bank needs her to constantly borrow money in order to improve the bank's performance. The ambitious banking boss borrows money from her. In the name of the boss lady, the left hand turns to the right hand to improve the performance and realize the dream of promotion. If you want something, knock on the door of opportunity through the boss lady.
In today's era, if there is no boss lady at the top, there will be a boss at the bottom.
However, although the person in charge of Yomiuri TV mentioned this, half of it was a drunken remark made on a whim, but it also had another meaning - since Shinichi Iwahashi wants to expand his business to Kansai and establish a sub-label in Osaka, he is a newbie here. The sign of visiting the proprietress of Shimogami may have some unexpected uses.
Whether the person in charge had good intentions or had other intentions, it was hard to say. However, as Shinichi Iwahashi listened to the person in charge talking, the first thing that came to his mind was that when he came to Osaka to establish his own label, he must Avoid banks that are closely related to Onoe’s boss lady.
Of course, if necessary, it’s okay to go to the proprietress’s restaurant for a drink. But the prerequisite is “there is a need.” The reason why that restaurant is shrouded in mystery is because it relies on the proprietress’s followers to keep it a secret. Up.
…
The end of the year was busy. Shinichi Iwahashi went on a business trip to Osaka for three days. He drank with the heads of Yomiuri TV and Osaka Cable Broadcasting, and then went to meet the head of Kansai TV. He thanked him for his care over the past year and hoped that he would continue to take care of him in the coming year.
The big shots who needed to be entertained by him personally had been entertained, and it was the company's managers' turn to take care of the rest.
However, there is an exception.
In Kansai TV Station, Shinichi Iwahashi saw a promotional poster for the Cosmos Theater Company's performance. The script writer was Mr. Ishihara who had visited the theater company with Watanabe Manyumi, so he called the theater group and went around the circle again. Pay a visit.
Before leaving, I first asked my accompanying assistant to order a congratulatory flower basket and send it to the theater troupe.
When Watanabe Manyumi was producing the movie "Kitchen", Ishihara recommended popular theater actor Fumio Umezawa to play the role of a transgender mother. The movie was a success, and Umezawa Fumio also became a hot topic with his outstanding acting skills in the movie. Nominated for several film awards.
Everyone was happy with the movie, and the friendship with Ishihara has continued.
This year, Iwahashi Shinichi had great success. When he visited Ishihara again, he felt that Ishihara's attitude had changed somewhat. In this regard, Iwahashi Shinichi pretended not to notice, and his own attitude remained the same as before.
After the greetings, the two parties chatted politely for a while, but the topic was interrupted for a while. Iwahashi Shinichi had nothing to say, so he thought about it and asked: "When I came to visit before, there was Naohiro Domoto in the theater troupe..."
Ishihara shook his head slightly, "Now it's Take-kun Domoto." Seeing Iwahashi Shinichi's expression of confusion because of his words, he suddenly felt interesting, and he still felt uncomfortable about being with the top figures in the recording industry.
The confusion of talking at such a young age was relieved a lot with the confusion revealed by Shinichi Iwahashi.
Iwahashi Shinichi recalled, "Ishihara-sensei's rule in the troupe is to call the members by their stage names."
Ishihara smiled, expressed satisfaction with Iwahashi Shinichi's memory, and replied, "That's right, so Takeo-kun has now 'graduated' from the troupe and is no longer 'Naohiro-kun'."
"I see." Iwahashi Shin nodded and smiled, "I still remember that child."
Ishihara replied, "He is a smart and clever child, but he is not ostentatious at all... What is interesting is that he is not ostentatious. Generally, kids of this age are the most restless."
Since Domoto Naohiro and Domoto Tsuyoshi have resigned from the troupe, Iwahashi Shinichi simply spoke freely this time, "I think that kid looks like the tea-offer (Ishida) Mitsunari."
"Really?" Ishihara recalled Domoto Tsuyoshi's appearance and said with a smile, "Iwahashi-san thinks he is a bit cunning."
Iwahashi Shinichi replied, "Yes, there is, but it will only be revealed when necessary." If the person offering tea was not Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Ishida Mitsunari might not show that cleverness.
Ishihara was thoughtful, paused, and replied: "If you want to put it that way, I'm not wrong when I say he's 'not ostentatious'."
"After all, he is a child who is with Mr. Ishihara." Shinichi Iwahashi complimented.
Ishihara smiled even more sincerely and revealed to him, "Although I can't ask Take-kun to bring tea to Iwahashi-san today, Iwahashi-san is in the industry, so there may be a chance to meet him again."
"I heard from Gangjun's mother that the child's resume was selected by Johnny."
Iwahashi Shinichi said "Huh?", which was a bit unexpected.
Ishihara joked in a relaxed tone, "Before, Tsuyoshi said that he wanted to be a comedian, I thought he would join Yoshimoto in the future."
Shinichi Iwahashi smiled in agreement. He thought that for a handsome little boy in Japan, joining Johnny's would be either the boy's own dream or the dream of the female relatives around him.
The child actors of the Cosmos Troupe usually participate in club activities, and it is almost the same when they are replaced by Johnny's JR, except that they have changed from the drama club to the baseball club. Johnny has a branch in Kansai that manages JR, and Domoto Tsuyoshi
At only eleven or twelve years old, I mostly do activities nearby.
However, that little boy became Johnny's JR. Ishihara's words to Shinichi Iwahashi, "There is still a chance to meet him again," were true.
…
Iwahashi Shinichi stayed in Osaka for three days. When he was ready to leave, ZARD's team came to Osaka from Tokyo to participate in the Japan Cable Broadcasting Awards.
I've come here all the time. In addition to attending the award ceremony, I'm also scheduled to participate in a radio program broadcast by Osaka Broadcasting Corporation. By the way, I'll also be interviewed by a magazine and photographed by two magazines.
The band's schedule for the end of the year is also full, and this trip is a busy one. Even so, both parties, who are both busy, agreed in advance to meet up in Osaka and have lunch together.
The Cable Broadcasting Awards are very valuable. After receiving the award, the band has to have some fun here. The members are all ordinary musicians, so accompanying them are the backbone of the band's team, responsible for
Entertainment arrangements.
Even Akamatsu Haruko specially came with her this time.
However, Akamatsu Haruko did not come with her to go out to socialize and take care of things. She had never been responsible for this, and Iwahashi Shinichi had no intention of sending his female staff out to go out to socialize and take care of things.
Since ZARD entered a period of rapid growth, Akamatsu Haruko, as one of the heroes of ZARD's popularity, has accumulated a lot of work experience. She is no longer only responsible for ZARD. First she was transferred to participate in the affairs of Bo LAN. This time, she listened to Shinichi Iwahashi.
Arrangements were made to join Daikoku Moki’s debut team.
Although she is in a lot of troubles as the lead singer of the band, as the person in black behind the scenes, Akamatsu Haruko is quite impressive.
This time, Haruko Akamatsu, who came with the band, was invited by Sachiko Kamaiike.
The band's debut promotion started in Kansai. At that time, Akamatsu Haruko was still the "fifth member of ZARD" and devoted herself wholeheartedly to this band. She followed them to Osaka and worked hard for the band, but she never felt hard.
After that, she helped Kamai Sachiko find the most suitable way to perform on the stage, and followed the band all the way until the band became popular. She also joined the team of Bo LAN from being a follower of ZARD, taking a step towards the world of the man in black behind the scenes.
Big strides.
GENZO is booming this year, and Akamatsu Haruko certainly has a bright future.
For Sachiko Kamaiike, it was because of Haruko Akamatsu that she was brought to Shinichi Iwahashi. Although the opportunity was given by Shinichi Iwahashi, it was with the help of Haruko Akamatsu that she was able to knock on the door of this dream.
If it weren't for Akamatsu Haruko, she wouldn't be who she is now.
Sachiko Kamaike dreamed of becoming a singer and told Shinichi Iwahashi that she wanted to make songs that could be sung in karaoke. At this moment when the band became popular and won the Kansai Cable Awards, it was a dream come true.
Already?
Akamatsu Haruko's dream is to become a man in black behind the scenes like Shinichi Iwahashi.
Kamai Sachiko cheered for Akamatsu Haruko in her heart, hoping that she could take solid steps one step at a time. If necessary, she would help Akamatsu Haruko and become her supporter without saying a word.
In addition, when ZARD is about to receive the first important award in her career, Kamai Sachiko hopes that Akamatsu Haruko can share this award with her and share this joy together.
Although this request is made, it is a little willful.
but……
"Sachiko is so thoughtful."
Akamatsu Haruko suddenly spoke, which startled Kamachi Sachiko. For a moment, she showed an expression like a lost lamb.
Seeing her appearance, Akamatsu Haruko couldn't help laughing and asked her, "What were you thinking about just now?"
The westbound Shinkansen is almost at Shin-Osaka Station.
Kamai Sachiko pursed her lips and replied a bit naughtily, "It's something that won't work as long as you say it."
Akamatsu Haruko was a little confused, "Are you making a wish?"
After confusing her, Kamachi Sachiko suddenly laughed.
Although making this request seemed a little willful, she thought to herself, but if it was Akamatsu Haruko, then it would be fine if she was a little more willful.
