The moment the plane took off from Baiyun Airport, looking at the horizon rising outside the hanging window, Zhao Xuewu looked a little frozen.

He didn't expect that he would have the opportunity to step out of the country a few years after retirement, and his mood at this moment could not be said to be excitement or emotion.

Duan Yun, who was sitting next to him, looked calm, he was just thinking more about the production line he was going to visit in Japan this time, he currently had 1.2 million US dollars in foreign exchange in his hand, how could this money be used on the blade, this was a problem that Duan Yun had to consider.

In fact, in the mid-80s, it was in a domestic household appliance consumption climax stage, according to the statistics after many years, in this era the vast majority of the introduction of foreign household appliances production lines can finally be profitable, including the very famous "one dragon gives birth to nine sons", China has produced Hefei Meiling, Mudanjiang, Beipingyang, Nanjing Bole, Shanghai Far East, Jingdezhen, Huayi, Chongqing, Wuzhou, Baoji, Changling, Lanzhou Changfeng and Zhongyi refrigerator "Ariston Nine Brothers" In the heyday, the output of the "Ariston Nine Brothers" accounted for 1/3 of the total output of refrigerators in the country, and all successfully recovered the cost of the production line, and also made a lot of money.

If Duan Yun introduces the tape recorder production line from Japan, with the sales and after-sales channels he currently masters, as well as the brand effect of "Tianyin" electronics, it is not difficult to recover the cost, but it is just a matter of making more and making less.

However, this kind of introduction of the elimination of the production line can only flourish for a while, after earning a period of quick money, with the fierce competition in the domestic home appliance industry, it will soon come to an end, which is not completely in line with Duan Yun's original intention of introducing this Japanese production line.

Duan Yun still hopes to introduce a Japanese second-hand production line, and then upgrade and transform the technology on this second-hand production line, so that it will become the first domestic Walkman production line, and become a leading enterprise of domestic Walkman for a long time, which is what Duan Yun wants to achieve.

The plane took off in the morning, and after more than 6 hours of flight, it landed smoothly at Narita Airport in Japan at 2 p.m.

Before the plane came to a standstill, many passengers watched the scene through the window, and many of the passengers who came to Japan for the first time in Japan all showed excited expressions on their faces, without any concealment.

After getting off the plane, as soon as Duan Yun and his party walked out of the airport, Zhao Xuewu was shocked by the bustling scene in front of him.

Narita International Airport is still more than 60 kilometers from downtown Tokyo, but the luxurious and high-tech interior of the airport is still very impressive.

Out of the airport terminal, under the leadership of Wang Liang, Duan Yun and his entourage got into a black Toyota sedan and headed for downtown Tokyo.

This Toyota car is arranged by the Hong Kong foreign trade company, taxis in Japan is very expensive, in the 80s, no 10,000 yen is not called a taxi, according to the 1985 foreign exchange rate, a dollar can be exchanged for about 2.7 yuan, the exchange of yen is about 250 yuan, that is to say, the starting price of a Japanese taxi is 120 yuan, which is almost equivalent to the salary of ordinary workers in Chinese mainland for three months.

The Hiroshima Agreement between Japan and the United States was signed in September 1985, when the dollar was still relatively strong against the yen, but by 1987, the ratio of the dollar to the yen had changed from 250 yen per dollar to 140 yen per dollar, which also caused Japan's export industry to suffer a serious blow and continued to recover in the following decades.

But all in all, the $1.2 million that Duan Yun currently has in his hand is still very valuable in Japan.

Sitting on that Toyota sedan, as he got closer and closer to the center of Tokyo, Zhao Xuewu was completely stunned by the city scene outside the window.

Japan in the 80s was a veritable "light of capitalism", and was so rich that it claimed to be able to buy the entire United States.

At that time, Japanese society was a feast of staggered feasts, with bright lights, neon flashes, and dazzling night-to-night songs, giving people the impression of extravagance.

In the 80s, the average wage of Chinese workers during the same period was 60 yuan, while the Japanese reached 10,400 yuan.

At that time, Japan can be said to be at the peak of the country's heyday, and what to eat and what to use was unimaginable to the Chinese people at that time, at that time, the life of an ordinary Japanese person was to end more than ten hours a day, receive a salary of hundreds of thousands of yen, give a Swiss gold watch to a new friend, and then eat Australian lobster for dinner, Danish oysters and Kobe beef, with French red wine or British whiskey, and then drive a German car to Ginza to buy European luxury goods from afar, and then go to play golf。

Looking out the window at the high-rise buildings and the neon lights of Tokyo's luxurious streetscape, Zhao Xuewu's heart was shocked again and again, he never thought that Japan would be so prosperous.

According to the arrangement of the foreign trade company, Duan Yun and his entourage were arranged to a hotel in Shibuya, and the three of them lived in two suites, Duan Yun and Zhao Xuewu lived together, and the translator Wang Liang lived in the next room.

When Zhao Xuewu learned that this suite would cost 15,000 yen a night, which is equivalent to 180 yuan a night, Zhao Xuewu, who was just sitting on the sofa, suddenly bounced up like a fire.

"It doesn't cost you money, you can live in peace. Duan Yun said with a smile when he saw this.

"This house is too expensive, and this night is almost enough to catch up with my retirement salary for two and a half months......" Zhao Xuewu said with some embarrassment.

"It's pretty cheap, if you stay in a five-star hotel in the center of Tokyo, there are hotels with tens of thousands of yuan a day, as the so-called poor family rich road, Master Zhao, you just need to eat, you should live, how much it costs has nothing to do with you. Duan Yun said to him.

Duan Yun can fully understand Zhao Xuewu's reaction, in fact, if he had just crossed into this era two or three years ago, he would definitely feel sorry for such a high room fee, but now it is different, his net worth has exceeded 10 million, and he still has 1.2 million US dollars in foreign exchange in his hand, this little money is not a problem at all, and if this business is completed, the money Duan Yun earns in a year will be enough to buy several such hotels.

According to the plan, Duan Yun and his entourage will stay here for one night tonight, and tomorrow morning, the Japanese manufacturer will send someone to pick up Duan Yun and the three to visit the factory, and the first factory to visit is Honjo Co., Ltd., which is located in the north of Tokyo.
