Chapter 3: Her Name Is Ayumi Hamasaki (2)
On the New Year of Showa 61, Watanabe Hiroyo of Sanshodo personally went to Tanaka Nanako's house to greet her for the New Year, thanks to Tanaka Nanako's blessing, and he is now in the Sanshodo Hall. But when he went to the door, he found out that Nanako Tanaka had gone out! Therefore, the check he brought with him was not handed over to Nanako Tanaka!
During the New Year, banks all over Japan were closed, so the money was not distributed from Watanabe until January 6 (January 1 to January 5 is the Japanese New Year, which is a holiday time). Not in the form of a check, but by bank transfer!
Of course, this was instructed by Jerry!
Every time I let Watanabe Hiroyo run home with a check, it's really too troublesome! He didn't mind at all, he was still thinking of pulling out some useful ideas from Jerry's mouth!
In nearly a year, the four midnight bells brought a total of nearly a billion yen to Nanako Tanaka, which was almost impossible in Shijie before Jerry's rebirth. Jerry clearly remembers that in his previous life, the Midnight Bell series only reached 830W sales in ten years, and at 150 yen per volume, the maximum amount of money he could get was 150 million yen. Jerry had forgotten that the yen had been appreciating against the dollar since the Plaza Accord. Before his rebirth, the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against the Japanese yen fluctuated around 83 yen per dollar. Now, 1 dollar can be exchanged for more than 200 yen! Now the price of the midnight bell per book is 1000 yen (Mamoru Moriya is really a money grabber)! Oh my God, in a year's time, the midnight bell has reached more than 800 W sales?
Unbelievable, unbelievable!
It's just five years ahead of schedule, and this number is terrifying!
No wonder Hiroshi Watanabe is happy to be like that!
Jerry suddenly remembered Nanako Tanaka's complaints, five months, actually ran all over the Japanese archipelago, signing meetings, signing meetings, in addition to signing meetings or signing meetings, she pouted and shouted, my arm is about to break, but zuihou, this woman still obediently ran to participate in the signing meeting!
What does it mean to be in pain and happy? Just look at Nanako Tanaka!
She has changed from a little girl to a beautiful writer who has swept all over Japan, and there is a tendency to radiate all shijie!
Watanabe's payment is more than one billion yen, and it is a share of the sales of a set of four hardcover deluxe editions of midnight bells created by Sanshodo Bookstore based on the New Year's book carnival planned by Jerry!
Except for a small part of the previous billion yen for daily use, the rest was thrown into Mitsui Bank by Jerry! Behind Mitsui Bank stands the Mitsui Zaibatsu, the No. 1 in Japan. He's waiting, waiting for an opportunity to strike!
After waiting for a long time at the bus stop, until his legs were about to freeze and stiff, Jerry remembered if it was time for him to buy a car! Although he can't open it, Nanako can! This stupid woman only knows how to listen to him, throws all her money away, and doesn't want to improve her quality of life for herself!
Jerry turned his head to look at Nanako Tanaka, whose face was red from the cold, and who kept stomping her feet.
"Nanako-sanako?"
"Hey~Jerry-kun, what's the matter?"
"Do you want to lend you my arms to warm you up?"
Nanako Tanaka was stunned for a moment, and then her magic hand reached out.
"Well, thank you Jerry-kun!"
"Ah~Help~"
Poor Jerry cocoons himself, and his face quickly becomes a hand warmer for Nanako Tanaka! Nanako Tanaka enjoyed it very much!
"Ah~ The car is coming, get in the car!"
After World War II, as one of the chaebols closely related to the Japanese government, the Mitsui zaibatsu received a considerable blow in the process of the so-called "post-war dissolution", and in the later "resurrection" process, it was constrained from all sides, and for a long time, Japan's "first chaebol" before World War II fell behind Mitsubishi, Fuji, and Sumitomo. It was not until the late 50s that the four core companies of the Mitsui Zaibatsu, including Mitsui Bank, Mitsui Trust Bank, Taisho Marine Fire Insurance, and Mitsui Life Insurance, began to formalize and revitalize their operations. In Showa 34, Mitsui & Co. re-established itself as a marketing link of the Mitsui Group. Today's Mitsui, under the leadership of Toshio Tsuchimitsu, can be said to be in full swing of development!
It's a little funny to say, it is said that the "Mitsui concept" of the symbiosis and coexistence of the Mitsui chaebol and the trinity is not named because of the Mitsui chaebol, but its source is actually the "Mitsui Pond" in Tiantai Mountain, Zhejiang Province, China! In 853 A.D., the five ancestors of the Japanese Tiantai sect Yuan Zhen came to the Tang Dynasty, in Zhejiang Tai Tiantai Mountain from the "Mitsui Pond" not far from the Guoqing Temple exercise Tiantai Zhangshu, after returning to Japan, the Yuancheng Temple was renamed Mitsui Temple, so far, Mitsui Village came from.
Perhaps, in the near future, there will be a huge collision with Mitsui!
"Jerry-kun, what are you thinking?" Nanako Tanaka hugged Jerry from behind, hugged him on her lap, and then put her head on his shoulder, exhaling like Lan to stimulate Jerry's small earlobe, itchy, very comfortable!
Jerry leaned sideways, dodging Nanako Tanaka's G-spot attack, "Miss Nanako, maybe, in the new year, we have more important things to do!" Do you still keep in touch with your classmates at university? ”
"Hey~ Didn't I go out for a few days in October last year? It happened to be the school festival of Nihon University in those days, and Miss Shizuko specially invited me! Speaking of which, everyone's changed a lot! That guy from Gu Quanjun actually has a beard, and Miss Asahina is a mother! Everyone said that it had been three years since I graduated, and I didn't have a good time as the guy who was fired, but I was really angry! ”
Nanako Tanaka said with a smile.
"So, Nanako-sama, can you still reach them, those of your college classmates?"
"Hi Bha~ Everyone left each other's contact information. How? Jerry-kun, is there anything you can do? ”
"Actually, I have a jihua!"
When Jerry simply told Nanako Tanaka about his idea, Nanako Tanaka couldn't close her mouth in surprise, "What? Jerry-kun: You're going to set up a comic company? ”
"Bang~"
Nanako Tanaka was shocked and came directly to a standing, and she didn't care that Jerry was still sitting on her lap, poor little Jerry was about to roll to the ground, and Nanako Tanaka didn't fall any good, and her head hit the top of the bus directly. ,
It's not easy for a Japanese woman to grow to 1.7 meters!
The passengers on the entire bus turned their heads in unison, and Nanako Tanaka shrank her head directly into her clothes and made an ostrich costume! Japanese people are generally very quiet when using buses, which may be one of the reasons for the wolf phenomenon on buses.
"Jerry-kun, did you just say that you were going to set up a comic company? Did I hear me wrong? ”
"Of course you heard me right, Nanako-sama! I know that you studied at the Faculty of Art at a Japanese university, and you studied skills related to manga, so if you can, I would like to invite your university classmates to work at a newly established company. There are four departments: Advertising Department, Comic Department, Distribution Department, and Editorial Department. In my jihua, I need about 30 employees! What do you think? Miss Nanako, is that okay? ”
"Hi Baba ~ no problem! I'll get you in touch later. Nanako Tanaka looked a little excited.
"Hmmm! By the way, in a few days, accompany me to the headquarters of the Three Provinces Hall! ”
"Is it a matter of contacting a new book? Isn't it possible to ask you to come directly to your home to talk? ”
"No, it's about the comic company! To be precise, we have to borrow the distribution channel of the Three Provinces Hall! ”
"I see! Jerry-kun, you think so much! ”
Being stared at like this by a beautiful woman with faint eyes, even Jerry, who is in his thirties, couldn't stand it, he smirked twice and didn't answer!
"Oh, by the way, Jerry-kun, Haruki-kun Kadokawa of Kadokawa Pictures called a few days ago, and he was very interested in the movie rights of Midnight Bell!"
"Haruki Kadokawa?"
"Hi Babble~"
"What's his offer? Who is the director? ”
"His offer is 500 million yen, and the director has not yet been decided! But listening to his tone, it seems that he wants to be his own director! ”
Jerry grabbed his chin, the best candidate for the director is Shimizu Chong, but Shimizu Chong, who was born in 1972, shouldn't have left Gunma Prefecture yet, so let's wait, if possible, just deceive this guy when the time comes!
"Hmmm! Let's hang him first! ”
"But Jerry-kun, wouldn't that be rude?"
"Miss Nanako, you have to be clear, it's Haruki Kadokawa begging us right now! You're a best-selling novelist now, and you have to be a best-selling novelist! ”
"Hi babble~" Nanako Tanaka originally wanted to say that the midnight bell was actually Jerry-kun's work, but when the words turned into two words!
Mitsui Bank Fukuoka Prefecture Branch, opposite the branch is the Fukuoka Central Bank, a native of Fukuoka!
"Miss Nanako, did Guangrang-kun say what the sales share will be this time?"
"500 million yen, a total of 500 million yuan. But Jerry Jun, your hardcover deluxe edition four-volume set of sales jihua is so exciting, it's just that I'm miserable, and I signed a 30W set of books in a row, and you still laugh, this is not an ordinary signature, each book has to bring a different New Year's greeting! How can there be such a thing! You don't know how tired I was dying of exhaustion in those days! ”
"Who made you Nanako Tanaka? The effect of beautiful writers is really not ordinary! ”
"Hi...... Creak? ”
"I mean, if you don't add your signature blessing, how can a four-volume deluxe hardcover edition sell for 1W yen? Alas, even a set of 30W books for 1W yen was sold out in one day! Guang Rangjun still grabbed the check and ran to print it, do you remember his expression when he was rejected? ”
"Yes? What a lost look! Nanako Tanaka thought of Hiroyo Watanabe, who had a depressed face, "When I go back, I will definitely be scolded by Mamei-kun Moriya!" ”
"It's a limited edition, and it's good to be able to print 30W sets! I actually have to print it~ My original jihua was only printed with 10W sets, and the unit price was 5W yen! ”
"Aha, Jerry-kun, you're such a profiteer!"
The two of them entered Mitsui Bank, and after confirming the remittance amount, they were about to go out, but they were blocked by a group of bank clerks at the door.
"Ah~Miss Nanako, it's Miss Nanako~"
"What, is it Her Highness Nanako?"
"Miss Nanako, sign me! I'm your book lover! ”
……
It's really, a helpless commotion~
Nanako Tanaka finally took Jerry out of the encirclement, and the two ran out of breath!
"It seems that Miss Nanako will wear toad glasses on the street in the future?"
"Jerry-kun, you're still laughing!"
Jerry turned his head and grimaced at Nanako, but unexpectedly, a little girl suddenly ran out of the side, and with a bang, he fell to the ground with a gold star in his eyes!
