667. When facing a group of evil wolves, be more ferocious than them!
.......
"Ah Bai!"
Naoki Nagayama, who was driving, suddenly tapped the steering wheel and put Otomo Yoshimura in the passenger seat. He regretted that he had not spoken more to his idol, and he was startled.
Even Taro, who was lying on his back in the back seat, pricked up his ears.
"What happened? Did you hit someone?" Yoshimura Otomo looked around.
"No!" Naoki Nagayama was a little irritated, "I just forgot one thing..."
"What's up?"
"I promised to get a signed record for Akina...I didn't think about it at all!" Naoki Nagayama patted his forehead.
"That's all?" Yoshimura Otomo breathed a sigh of relief, "After this kind of thing, just ask the Kobe Entertainment Club for a few tickets!"
Although "The Continuous Stream" was given to Misora Hibari as a gift, at most it was free of creation fees, and it does not mean that it was also a gift to Kobe Entertainment Club... The cumulative sales of this song's albums are at least
Millions, and even more... Is this giving money to Kobe Entertainment Club in vain?
Therefore, I will definitely negotiate with Kobe Entertainment Agency on the sharing of the songs and sign a formal contract.
"So today we will go to Kobe City and stay one night?"
Naoki Nagayama is currently in Rokuroso Town, Ashiya City. It takes about twenty minutes to drive to Kobe. He drove over from Kyoto at noon and stayed at Misora Hibari's house for a while. It was almost evening when he arrived in Kobe.
"Well, since I have come to Kobe, of course I have to try Kobe beef and Akashi-yaki!" Yoshimura Otomo also looked forward to it.
"Okay, let's stay in a hotel for one night and go back tomorrow..." Forget it if you want to play. A handsome young man like Nagayama Naoki and a middle-aged man will be misunderstood if they go out to tourist attractions together.
!
The two people who ran away under the pretext of a business trip agreed to extend their vacation.
.......
On the other side, Hibari Misora listened to Masahiro Ikegami, the head of the Kobe Entertainment Club, talk about the disputes within the Nagayama family and the Yamaguchi-gumi.
"KTV...is it actually so profitable? It makes the other team leaders excited...want to put pressure on the Yondaime to give up his commitment to the Nagayama Group?"
Misora Hibari was very curious that KTV's revenue could actually make many team leaders boo.
However, this time, in addition to Misaka Takahiro, the main leader of the Chinese team of the East Asia Conference, other direct team leaders were also making noises. Even the team leaders who did not speak were probably just waiting for opportunities.
"What a headache!" Misora Hibari hammered the song "Continuous Flow" on the table, "I know it's hard to return such an expensive gift!"
However, after complaining, Misora Hibari still used her brain to think about the context. Her relationship with the third generation of the Yamaguchi-gumi gave her a good understanding of the internal style of the Yamaguchi-gumi.
"The naming ceremony of the fourth generation will be about next month... However, there are only 40 direct team leaders participating in the consolidation of the cup, and there are more than 20 team leaders supporting the former acting team leader Yamamoto Hiroshi...
.”
In other words, the opponent is very strong, and there is still a lot of uncertainty in the fourth generation name-taking ceremony!
Recently, at Tian Gang Residence, the fourth generation Takenaka Masahisa and the third generation elder sister Taoka Fumiko are frequently meeting with team leaders and younger brothers. On the one hand, they are strengthening emotional ties, and on the other hand, they are also trying to impress those team leaders who may be wavering.
"When the Yondaime is in urgent need of prestige...if something happens that he doesn't keep his promise..." Hibari Misora seemed to know how he should repay this gift of thanks.
So, she immediately called Fumiko Taoka.
"Sister Fumiko."
Misora Hibari screamed very affectionately, and she was only 9 years old when Kazuo Taoka took a fancy to Misora Hibari's aura.
We have been together for many years, and Kazuo Taoka, who is in his 40s, regards her more as a daughter, while Fumiko Taoka is slightly younger and is equivalent to Misora Hibari's eldest sister.
"Wazueda-chan!" Misora Hibari's original name is Kato Kazue, but now only a few people close to her know this name. "Why did you call me all of a sudden?"
"Because I'm going to the Kobe Entertainment Club today to discuss a song, I want to visit Sister Fumiko tonight..." Hibari Misora certainly knows how busy Taoka Di is lately, "But I heard that Taoka Di is very busy recently.
, so call ahead and ask.”
"Ah, no matter how busy I am, I won't stay until night." Fumiko Taoka said, "I haven't seen Kazueda-chan for a long time!"
"Hi, I'll come over after I finish talking with the entertainment club~"
After Misora Hibari put down the phone, she asked the maid to tell the driver to prepare the car.
I couldn't talk much when I went to the Kobe Entertainment Club. In fact, I could talk on the phone. It was just that I fell in love with the song "Continuous Streaming" and wanted the entertainment club to have good communication with Shu Friends and sign a contract as soon as possible.
As the first artist of the Kobe Entertainment Club, and with her current fame and status, there is no need to worry about any objections from the Entertainment Club.
Others, that is, how to inadvertently remind Taoka Fumiko from the side...
.......
If you want to eat Kobe beef, of course you have to use Teppanyaki to best reflect the original flavor of the beef!
After Naoki Nagayama found a high-end hotel with pets, he and Otomo Yoshimura came to the Sannomiya main store of Teppanyaki Mouriya.
In front of the long iron kitchen counter are seats like a bar, and inside the kitchen counter is a chef.
When ordering, a whole piece of raw steak is placed in front of you. On the tender beef, delicate fat patterns are closely arranged on the cut surface, like snowflake patterns, dyeing the originally red beef pink.
After you order other side dishes, the professional chef will cut the ingredients in front of you and use the heat of the iron plate to quickly cook.
The tender beef cubes sizzled on the iron plate, and the aroma of oil and wagyu meat were intertwined with each other and rushed towards the customers, instantly arousing feedback from the mouth...
"Naoki-san, Kobe's wagyu beef is outstanding!" Yoshimura Otomo said while drinking some wine and eating side dishes.
"Yeah... I heard it melts in your mouth..."
At this time, the sizzling beef cubes were ready. The meat cubes were just right. The sauce condensed on the surface and was slightly charred, exuding a strange aroma.
Nagayama Naoki took the steaming beef cubes and stuffed it into his mouth. He gently pressed the tender beef with his teeth, and a stream of fresh and sweet gravy seemed to spurt out, mixing with the slightly salty sauce.
Mouth full of saliva.
After chewing it for a few times, you can see that the delicate meat quality is not as melt-in-your-mouth, but it is not far behind. The rich fat and beef are minced together, which is the meaty aroma that every meat eater can't stop.
The few beef cubes quickly disappeared as Naoki Nagayama's mouth kept closing, and then there were side dishes such as mushrooms, carob beans, shrimp crackers, etc.
Seeing how hungry the guests were, the chef quickly speeded up the cooking process. The next steak was cut into three large pieces, and you could still see the bright red meat in the middle.
Naoki Nagayama can enjoy delicious Wagyu beef again!
After ordering a little something, Naoki Nagayama chatted with Otomo Yoshimura during the break:
"Otomo-san, do you want to go to the Kobe Entertainment Club tomorrow?"
"There's nothing interesting there. It's just a small room, a few desks, telephones, and at most some printers." Yoshimura Otomo shook his head, "The best thing about Kobe Entertainment Club is inviting other artists.
At that time, other firms did not dare to refuse, and the record companies and distributors were completely afraid not to pay..."
“So of course you don’t have to worry about the decoration of the headquarters, it’s enough to have an office~”
"Haha, that's right." Nagayama Naoki said with a smile.
Those firms whose headquarters are luxuriously decorated want to spend money on appearance so as to show their strength. For example, the Kobe Entertainment Club can have enough confidence simply by relying on the bad reputation of the Yamaguchi-gumi.
"Then we go back to the hotel directly later? We go back to Tokyo directly tomorrow?"
"Well, the future contracts and other matters will be settled through emails." Yoshimura Otomo didn't care. The singer's share of the shares was all agreed upon. If there are any adjustments that need to be made, they can be explained in the emails.
"It's a pity. I originally wanted to visit the club in Kobe~ I heard it's very famous..."
"club?"
Fangcun Otomo's vision brightened up. A middle-aged man with a tigress controlling his family is happiest when he goes to these places where he can relax!
What's more, the tigress is thousands of miles away!
"Ahem, Zhi Shusang, I think it's actually not too late, and I won't be able to sleep if I go back too early..."
"..."
.......
Taoka Residence.
As the last meeting leader left with his younger brother, only the fourth generation Takenaka Masahisa, who was about to become famous, and a few of his closest brothers were left in this luxurious villa.
When it was time for dinner, the servants had already prepared delicious dishes for the core Yamaguchi-gumi members to enjoy.
Originally, Taoka Fumiko entertained the Yamaguchi-gumi members like this in the early days of the Yamaguchi-gumi, so having dinner at Tagoka Residence was no longer a strange thing for the team members.
Naturally, Takenaka Masahisa was not with his younger brothers, but had dinner with Fumiko Taoka in another room. During this time, they would eat together and discuss various matters regarding the naming ceremony at the dinner table.
But something is different today, because Hibari Misora is also having dinner together.
As the loyal younger brother of the previous generation Taoka Kazuo, Takenaka Masahisa naturally knew Misora Hibari, and also knew that she was the pillar of the Kobe Entertainment Society, the most profitable artist, and an important money bag of the Yamaguchi-gumi.
Misora Hibari is not too familiar with Takenaka Masahisa, the Fourth Generation who is about to take over, but after all, he is the next leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi, and Misora Hibari still maintains a respectful attitude.
Taoka Fumiko enlivened the atmosphere at the dinner table: "Kazueda-chan stopped by to see me today, which relaxed the nerves that have been tense recently~"
"Sister Fumiko, it will be much easier once the naming ceremony of Team Leader Takenaka is completed." Hibari Misora consoled her.
"It can't be that easy. The team leaders of the Yamaguchi group all have their own thoughts. The direct team leader who was finally convinced is still making trouble..." Fumiko Taoka is a woman after all, and she wants to talk about something that is bothering her.
.
It just so happens that Takenaka Masahisa and Misora Hibari here are not outsiders.
"Didn't the cup event already happen? Why are we still making trouble? Is it someone from former acting team leader Yamamoto Hiro?" Hibari Misora looked like she didn't know.
"It was about a nightclub." Fumiko Tianoka sighed, "The team leaders actually quarreled over the profits of a nightclub..."
"Is it the Nagayama group's KTV?" Hibari Misora said, "Didn't I hear before that Group Leader Takenaka has ordered not to let people from other groups do it?"
"Ah, that's it..."
Fumiko Taoka put down her chopsticks and drank a glass of wine.
"Those team leaders, how dare you disobey the Yondaime's orders?" Misora Hibari glanced at Takenaka Masahisa, who had been eating silently, and started to speak as if he was provoking something.
"They are just making noises and complaining. No team leader dares to disobey the Yondaime's order." Fumiko Taoka shook her head, "But the pressure is a bit high... They want the Yondaime to cancel the previous order."
"Do they think the Yondaime is a capricious person?!" Hibari Misora said in surprise, and then seemed to realize his mistake, and quickly apologized to Fumiko Taoka and Masahisa Takenaka, "Private Marseille..."
Taoka Fumiko knew that Misora Hibari had a straightforward personality, so she didn’t care:
"Of course not! It's just that... the situation is a bit unsubtle now, and Yamamoto Hiro is eyeing it... The fourth generation also has to consider the mood of the team leaders..."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Masahisa Takenaka's face is a bit ugly. As a martial arts sect, what he looks down on the most is a capricious villain like Yamamoto Hiroshi...
..
"I see....."
Misora Hibari nodded and did not continue to ask. If he inquired further, it might arouse the suspicion of the two of them.
The first psychological suggestion was planted. If she wanted to influence Takenaka Masahisa's thoughts more, she had to adopt a more clever form. Fortunately, she had already thought of many methods before coming to Tian Gang Residence, for the performance.
Learning "Psychology" through watching movies has played an unexpected role!
She changed the topic and started talking about the previous song "Continuous Stream". She talked about how excellent this song is and how influential it will be in the future. Kobe Entertainment Club needs to sign a contract as soon as possible, and she will also use this song
As the title song of the next album.
Then there were the latest news in the entertainment industry, anecdotes and so on. I chatted with Fumiko Tagoka while eating, and I was very happy.
Masahisa Takenaka is a rude person, and it is difficult to get in the middle of the conversation between the two women, so he can only eat in silence... I always feel that this meal is not very enjoyable.
When dinner was over and after drinking the refreshing hot tea, Hibari Misora wisely prepared to leave. After all, Fumiko Taoka and Masahisa Takenaka still had serious things to talk about!
"Sister Wenzi, I'll take my leave now~"
"Wzueda-chan, it's a rare time for me to come here and you're leaving so soon?" Fumiko Taoka tried to persuade her, "It's okay to stay here for one night!"
"Don't be too intrusive..."
Misora Hibari declined, and then bowed to Masahisa Takenaka to say goodbye, but this time she was relatively solemn:
"Team Leader Takenaka,
I heard that when a wolf king faces a challenge from a wolf pack member, he must never retreat. He can only show himself to be stronger than them, only then can he secure his position as wolf king...
You are now also facing the challenges of the Yamaguchi-gumi members. It is time to strengthen your faith and move forward!
Wish you good luck in martial arts!"
"Thank you!"
When Takenaka Masahisa heard such ancient-style advice, he sat up straight and solemnly returned the greeting, expressing his gratitude to Misora Hibari for his advice.
...
After Misora Hibari left, Takenaka Masahisa was still thinking about the profound words... To be the wolf king, can you only show yourself to be stronger than the pack of wolves?!
The law of the jungle is indeed true!
Although she was also shocked by Misora Hibari Fumaki's advice, Taoka Fumiko still smiled and explained to Takenaka Masahisa:
"Kazada-chan has appeared in many TV dramas, and is a little obsessed with the admonishment conversations between monarchs and ministers in the past, so she said something like this.
But it’s actually Kazue-chan who is expressing his support for Team Leader Takenaka, and please ask Team Leader Takenaka not to pay attention.”
She thought Misora Hibari was saying that former acting team leader Yamamoto Hiro's disobedience to the Yondaime was like a member of a wolf pack challenging the wolf king. That's why she encouraged the Yondaime to firm up his faith and move forward indomitably.
"Silly tape..." Masahiro Takenaka silently comprehended the conversation just now, feeling like he was back in the feudal era when monarchs and ministers played against each other. "Actually, I quite like that kind of advice. It's full of wisdom."
In fact, he may prefer the feeling of being a king. After all, the ultimate dream of every Yakuza is to be the best among ten thousand people...
"Sister Fumiko, as for the team leaders who came to negotiate today, I think a few of them already have the intention to move to our side." Masahisa Takenaka said, "If we can give you some more sweeteners..."
"The organization's money is a little tight, but Team Leader Takenaka can promise them a commission from certain industries in the future." Fumiko Taoka said, "There are still some idle properties..."
"Well, please ask me, sister, to make a list for me." Masahisa Takenaka nodded.
"Tomorrow, there are still some people we need to meet...but then we have to meet with the leaders of the Inagawa Kai, Sumiyoshi Kai, Aizu Kotetsu Kai, Ohno family and other organizations." Fumiko Taoka calculated, "
At the beginning of July, the naming ceremony will be officially held, and witnesses are indispensable!"
"Um....."
Listening to Taoka Fumiko's description, Takenaka Masahisa seemed to be sitting in the center of everyone's gaze, wearing a frame that represented the highest power of the Yamaguchi-gumi - a frame with "Fourth Generation Eyes" written on it.
My heart was full of pride and ambition when I heard Fumiko Taoka say:
"Team Leader Takenaka, regarding the request from those direct team leaders to loosen the restrictions on KTV... Do you want to talk to Hayato Nagayama again? Maybe we can make some concessions?"
concession?
For a moment, words such as "capricious", "cannot retreat" and "press forward" flashed through Takenaka Masahisa's mind, and then a fierce look appeared on his face:
"Sister Fumiko!
In the life of the extreme, I have long understood that as long as you show a hint of cowardice, your enemies will pounce on you even more ferociously!
When facing a group of evil wolves, be more ferocious than them!!!
What if I compromised with the direct team leaders this time and took back the order?
Not only would Nagayama Hayato think that I was capricious and unkept my promise, causing the originally neutral team leader to turn to Yamamoto Hiroshi, but those direct team leaders who had achieved their goals would also think that I was just a leader who could compromise, and they would demand
Get more!"
"so!!!"
"This order will never be taken back!"
"Other members of the Yamaguchi-gumi must never touch the KTV!"
Taoka Fumiko understood what Takenaka Masahisa said and seemed to want to say something. However, looking at Takenaka Masahisa's firm expression, she finally nodded:
"Hey! I understand! I will restrain the Sandaime..."
