Chapter 215: To Each His Own Heart (Part II)
Watanabe asked puzzled: "Isn't this Jimmy just a playboy, what is he difficult to deal with, isn't it okay to use money and women?" Besides, did the DuPont family give up this overseas business because he was such a person? ”
"Yes, he is indeed a playboy, but since he partnered with Downing in the film business, this guy has made more and more money and has a higher status in Hollywood, so he is not so easy to buy now. And how many years has he been friends with Tang Ning? If we really want to divide Downing's industry, it's okay if he doesn't jump out against us, how can he help us in turn?
Besides, the DuPont family could really do this kind of thing. Among the top ten families in the United States now, DuPont still maintains this ancient blood system, Jimmy is incompetent, he is also a member of the DuPont family, he may not be able to promote one thing, but he can definitely do it if he wants to mess up one thing. ”
At the same time, there was more than one place arguing, on the grass of Tangning's villa, Higashino, who had just finished visiting Tangning, stood quietly in the pavilion and didn't know what he was thinking, at this time, a person patted him on the shoulder, and he didn't even look back and said: "Okubo, you're here?" ”
Okubo smiled: "You haven't looked back, how do you know it's me?" ”
Higashino smiled bitterly: "We've been working together for so many years, I'm not familiar with others, can I still be familiar with you?" After reading the boss just now, I knew that you would definitely come to talk to me, so I deliberately found such a quiet place waiting for you. ”
Okubo also smiled bitterly: "If you say that, have you really thought about it?" ”
Higashino shook his head: "Not yet, first, I'm not sure if the boss will wake up yet, and second, I don't know what you think, to be honest, but if it's possible." I hope we're still comrades-in-arms. ”
Okubo asked, "If the boss really can't wake up, do you really have to take this step?" ”
Higashino nodded: "That's right. If the boss is here, no matter how full of thought and ambition I am, I won't do anything, because I know that as long as the boss is there. I can't turn the sky, but once the boss is gone, then I don't need to stay here anymore, I have my dreams and obsessions. Maybe like Matsuda, Ichii, Oyama, and Inujiro, they still have such and such constraints, but I don't have any of these here, and I think you should know this best. ”
Okubo sighed: "That's right, maybe the boss doesn't have the ability and capital that I know about you." The boss initially asked me to come to Kokura to help you. It's also to prevent you, in fact, at that time, the boss had already found out that you didn't agree with his development direction, but unfortunately maybe I was incompetent, I have been busy for so many years, and I can only watch you become more and more powerful, it seems that this is not the same as not going to college. But speaking of which, can't you follow me to assist the eldest lady? ”
Higashino sneered, "Okubo, don't tease me." What's the eldest lady, if Mrs. Akiko gave birth to a son. It's barely an heir, but such a girl, will you take it seriously? ”
Okubo said with some embarrassment: "At least nominally, if not, you wait for a while, if you are really sure that the boss will not wake up in the short term." Think again. ”
"That's natural, I just want to stand on my own, and I don't want to betray the boss, in fact, I really hope that the boss can recover, and I want to see it. Will the boss be able to realize his ideals, which seem ethereal to me even now? ”
At this time, Akiko hugged Reiko in his arms in his room and cried: "Reiko, you said it would be nice if you were a boy, so that the family wouldn't have to be so messy, hey, why hasn't the boss woken up yet, if he sees his property in chaos like this, I don't know how sad he should be." In fact, Akiko also privately hopes that her daughter can have the opportunity to inherit the boss's huge estate, but at present, it seems that if it is a boy, there is still a slight possibility.
In another room, Endo, Matsuda, Ichii, and Inujiro, the Tokyo gang, are also discussing the matter. Inujiro first couldn't suppress the impatience in his heart and said: "Boss Matsuda, now that the boss is unconscious, what can we do in the future?" ”
Ichii said coldly on the side: "What's the matter, Inujiro, what else do you kid have to think about?" ”
Inujiro hurriedly defended: "Sister Market, don't joke, how can this kind of thing be said casually." If the white goods business I am in charge of is separated from the boss, where can I do it, if I rely on myself, within a week, there will be no bones and dregs left to be gnawed by the Yamaguchi-gumi. And in Myanmar, if there is no recruitment from the boss, Li Mi will definitely not be able to believe it, and he will not necessarily continue to deliver goods. But you should not be affected much, Sister of the market. ”
Shijing Xingna immediately counterattacked: "Don't talk nonsense, my loyalty to the boss is beyond your imagination, I didn't just do things for the boss for money, and now my main energy is here in the insurance company, the rat club has gradually stopped doing it, without the support and operation of the boss's strong funds behind, the insurance company can't last a few days at all." ”
Matsuda Yoshiko persuaded: "Okay, don't quarrel, a few of us are in Tokyo, although we are in charge of each other, but we are all connected and complementary to each other, and no one else can maintain the current scale without anyone, so no matter when, we must be united, no matter what happens in the future, we have to take care of Tokyo for the boss." In fact, what worries me the most now is the reaction of the Osaka business group and Kodama Yushio.
If the boss is not there, no one can say whether the Osaka business group will continue to cooperate with us in film companies and insurance companies. And Kodama, this guy, will definitely take advantage of the fire to rob, and if we are still scattered here with Okinawa and Kokura, what can we do? ”
Matsuda's fears had become a reality, because at this time, Sakurai and Kodama Yushio of the Osaka trade group were hurrying to Okinawa after receiving the news, and they had their own plans to determine the current situation of Downing with their own eyes.
Fortunately, Jimmy and Hepburn, who flew from the United States to take the lead in front of them, Hepburn lay on him and cried loudly as soon as he saw Downing lying unconscious on the bed, and he couldn't help himself in pain, on the other hand, Jimmy, who usually had a hippie smile and didn't have a decent face, was very calm, and when he saw that Hepburn was tired of crying, he arranged for someone to help her out, and she stayed alone in the bedroom, and then walked over to Downing who was lying on the bed step by step. (To be continued......)
PS: The protagonist will wake up in the next chapter, don't worry.
