Chapter 44 Programmes (continued)

Li Guangzhi bent down, propped his hands on the table, leaned forward to face the three people at the table, and asked with some eagerness:

"I remember that in Japan, there seems to be a rule that you are not allowed to solicit customers on the street outside the store, and the police have the right to stop or fine them, right?"

His excitement infected Li Xiaomu and the others, although they hadn't figured out Li Guangzhi's thoughts too much, but their emotions were also a little excited.

Hearing his question, Sun Dazhi took the initiative to answer: "Yes, Tokyo must have this rule, if my real estate agency wants to put up billboards and distribute flyers outside the store, according to the rules, you need to apply." But now it's generally not strictly controlled about this, as long as no one goes out of their way to complain, the police won't take care of you. ”

Li Guangzhi happily hammered it lightly on the table, then slowed down his speech, and said in a tone that deliberately suppressed his excitement: "The Shinjuku District Police Station wants to rectify the environment and law and order in Kabukicho Street, we don't care about the gangsters, let's just say that those outside the store soliciting team that has the greatest impact on the environment, as well as the wandering insider groups like us, how do you think the police will deal with it?" ”

"Do you want to drive them all out? While they are legally required to do so, I don't think that's likely. If soliciting was completely banned, the already sluggish business in Kabukicho would be ruined, and the shops would certainly not agree to it. ”

However, for the sake of face and the tasks assigned by the police, they must not tolerate such people wandering the streets to solicit customers. How to solve this contradiction? I think the heads of the Shinjuku City Police Station are also having a headache at this time. ”

Li Guangzhi smiled proudly at the three of them, and said in a puzzle-solving tone:

"If we were to tell the police chiefs at this time, we would open a shop in Kabukicho called the "Clueless Case" shop, which would not only allow all the wandering solicitors to be in the storefront, but also make the street clean and tidy. It won't affect the business of Kabukicho Street at all, and it will even make the business of the custom shop better."

"Do you say, will these cops be grateful to us for this? Will it provide us with special care so that the store can be opened as soon as possible and show the effect as soon as possible? ”

Hearing this, Sun Dayong stood up excitedly, and suddenly explained:

"That's right! As long as they set up our example and show the effect of the demonstration, then they will have enough reasons to improve the environment of Kabukicho Street! Moreover, with such a perfect solution, whether it is to the Metropolitan Police Department above or to the shops on Ichiban Street, they can explain it! ”

Li Guangzhi interjected next to him: "This is not just a matter of whether it can be explained or not. This is a very good achievement for the heads of the Shinjuku City Police Department! ”

Li Xiaomu also figured out Li Guangzhi's train of thought at this time, and he added impatiently: "Chamber of Commerce! And the Chamber of Commerce! Not only can we contact the police, but we can also contact the chamber of commerce in Kabukicho Street! ”

In Japan, as long as there is a slightly larger shopping street, there is almost always a chamber of commerce organization composed of shopkeepers, which is generally called the Shopping Street United Promotion Association, the United Promotion Association, and the like. The Chamber of Commerce is a non-governmental organization, and in a society like Japan, which pays attention to rules and has the characteristics of habitual conformity, the power is still quite large.

"The Chamber of Commerce will definitely approve of our plan to open a store. They also understand the importance of environment and security to a business district, and if it weren't for the fact that business is so deserted these days, I don't think they would want to see the streets full of solicitors. ”

"As long as we can find a way to get the support of the Chamber of Commerce, then the gangster forces don't have to worry much. In Kabukicho Street, even the Far Eastern Kai wants to give face to the Chamber of Commerce. ”

Li Guangzhi was still unfamiliar with the situation in Japan, and he did not consider the role of the chamber of commerce at all in the plan he had conceived before. His way of thinking is more of a domestic one, and if you want to find a protective umbrella, you have to find the way to the government and the police.

At this time, after being reminded by Li Xiaomu, he had a little impression of the Chamber of Commerce. It seems that I have seen it in a Japanese drama in my previous life, and this autonomous non-governmental organization seems to have a lot of power to point fingers in the shopping street.

Li Guangzhi scratched his chin and said with some confusion: "The Chamber of Commerce is indeed a good choice, but Lao Li, we don't know anyone!" I don't even know where the door of this chamber of commerce is open! ”

Li Xiaomu smiled happily: "Who said we don't know anyone?" Boss Yoshihara is the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce! The old guy has been running a shop here for decades, and there is no old man in Kabukicho that he is not familiar with. As long as we can talk about him, there will be no problem at all with the Chamber of Commerce! ”

"The owner of Yoshihara who opened the "Collecting Pu" store? He is actually the vice president of the Chamber of Commerce? Li Guangzhi asked rhetorically in some surprise, and then replied to himself: "Also, his "Huipu" store is large in scale and has old qualifications, and it is more than enough to be a vice president with his qualifications. ”

He touched the stubble on his chin and said thoughtfully: "Well, if Boss Yoshihara is the vice president, then we should be able to take the road of the Chamber of Commerce." Although the old man is a little stubborn, his vision is still savage. He could certainly see the benefits of this plan. ”

Speaking of this, he slapped his face, and then made a downward gesture to Li Xiaomu and Sun Dayong, and said, "Okay, okay, don't get too excited, let's sit down and talk." Now everyone can be regarded as unifying their ideas, but what to do next has to be discussed. ”

He sat cross-legged back in his place, picked up the teapot and refilled the four cups on the table, and said:

"The results of this small meeting we held today are still very great. Not only has the plan of opening a store been determined, but also two feasible ways have been found in terms of how to "recruit security" to find a protective umbrella. ”

"How do we implement this plan later, I plan it this way. Tomorrow and the next two days, I will use the daytime to write a more formal plan first, and then in these two days, Dayong, you will make an appointment with your police friend, set a time to meet, and then take this plan to meet him. ”

In his previous life, although Li Guangzhi was only a deputy section chief in the unit, he also managed the seventh and eighth people at most. This kind of meeting to assign tasks to people, he is not unfamiliar with it at all, but he still has the posture of a leader.

"Oh, Dayong, what does your friend do at the Shinjuku City Police Station? How old is it? ”

Sun Dayong frowned and thought about it, and replied with some uncertainty: "His name is Yosuke Sato, and he is about 30 years old." I heard him say that he seems to be in charge of security and crime prevention in the Shinjuku Office. His current rank is the police department, so he should at least be a section chief-level official."

Li Guangzhi knew almost nothing about the Japanese police department, and he didn't know what the title of the police department was, but in the end, when he heard that this person was still a section chief, he was immediately overjoyed:

"Dayong, your friend is still a powerful official, that's the best. When you meet with him, tell him more about our plan. I think he'd be willing to help us get this shop up and running, as long as he's not too stupid, and he'll be able to make a lot of money here. ”

He turned his head to Li Xiaomu and said, "Lao Li, after Dayong has finished this Sato, you will make an appointment with Boss Yoshihara." That old guy has a lot of thoughts and a stubborn temperament, so we have to fight to take him down once!" ”

"Meet Yoshiwara, let's try to take Sato with us. When the time comes, let Sato go to the bathroom to relax, and we can tell Yoshiwara that the Shinjuku City Police Station has agreed to this plan, and Sato is the executive director."

Seeing Li Xiaomu's knowing nod, he knew that this guy was a sober person, and he must have understood this method of "hiding from both ends", so he didn't say more, but concluded:

"Both of these paths are your relationship, so you are responsible for pulling the strings from the beginning. Next week I'll be tasked with solving problems with the storefront. Anyway, we meet every night, and we can communicate in time if there is any situation. ”

Then he looked at Sun Dazhi and said, "Brother Dazhi, I really want you to join in and do this with us." But I know that it is indeed difficult for you to make up your mind to throw away your previous persistence now. ”

"So, I just hope that in the rest of the time, if you have time, you will come over and help us and come up with ideas. After all, we were either gangsters or pimps before, and we all belonged to marginal characters. We certainly don't know as much about the rules and routines of mainstream Japanese society as you do if you, who have been in the workplace for a few years. What do you think? ”

Sun Dazhi didn't speak, just nodded silently.

Li Guangzhi raised his hand and stretched a big lazy waist, and said in a brisk tone:

"Well, that's the rough arrangement. From next Monday, let's start working hard to complete our tasks and strive to get things done!

"As long as this store can be opened smoothly, I believe that this will be a big turning point in our lives! Not to mention how much money we can make, at the very least, we can leave our name in the history of Kabukicho Street as a pioneer in the industry! ”

He raised the teacup and said to Li Xiaomu and the others: "Come on, come on, let's replace the wine with tea today, have a drink, and wish our store opening plan a great success!" ”
