Friday is a women-specific magazine that carries news, such as fashion, shopping, and entertainment gossip, similar to Weekly Women.

With the advent of the bubble era, consumerism and hedonism prevailed, and these women-oriented magazines followed the trend and focused on these places.

Lo and behold, now Nanako and the others are getting together and eagerly discussing the new list on Friday.

Neon likes to list all kinds of rankings, from entertainment stars to sake bread.

However, the public is quite ate this set, and they almost eat the vote as a meal.

A small investment in three days, a large investment in seven days, addicted to various fancy rankings, unable to extricate himself.

This Valentine's Day has just passed, and the magazine also published the list of the most anticipated boyfriend Valentine's Day gifts voted by the girls at this time.

"Sure enough, the number one is the Tiffany heart-shaped diamond pendant."

"The gold model costs 170,000 yen, isn't it too expensive?"

"Don't worry, the Bill-Paying Monarch and the Tribute-Paying Monarch will solve our troubles for us."

"Eh~" The girls giggled and laughed.

The big pill in the back, his brows furrowed even tighter.

"The second is Cartier's triple ring, no wonder it has been selling so hot recently, it turns out that it is on the list."

"It's best to wear a gold model, and it's too shameless to wear a silver model."

Most of these jewelry are divided into silver and gold, Tiffany heart-shaped diamond pendant gold 170,000 yuan, silver more than 40,000 yuan.

Cartier triple ring, 136,000 in yellow gold and 23,500 in silver.

In terms of the degree of preference, the girls honestly chose the gold model.

"The Akasaka Prince Hotel has the third best cuisine, so it seems that there are still many people who like to eat French food."

"After all, it's a romantic city, and it's a good match to go to a French meal on a date day~"

"That's what you're talking about."

"If anyone can give me the top three on the list as a gift, then he will be my natal king~"

Nanako looked at her best friend beside her, and a hint of cunning flashed in her eyes.

"Eh, Nanako~ The top three are not enough, at least the top ten must be together, right?"

"That's it, in addition to being handsome, of course he must also be rich."

The top three add up to only four or five hundred thousand yen, and now a casual month's salary plus bonus is enough.

As a natal king, the top ten on the list is the minimum requirement.

Four or five hundred thousand yen, Daimaru, who was sitting on the desk in the back, was silent.

A Valentine's Day requires a boy to pay four or five hundred thousand, is it the depreciation of the yen?

Otherwise, why is the current money so worthless?

Judging from Oromaru's current conditions, in fact, his family is not short of money.

His father, Kashiwagi, was a veteran who followed Shirakawa Kaede, and now he is in charge of most of the logistics and warehousing in Akita.

With the annual salary of cypress, let alone four or five hundred thousand, it is not a problem to magnify it by 20 times.

And Daimaru himself has a salary, and he can also take out four or five hundred thousand.

But he just felt uncomfortable in his heart, even if the girl he had always liked could be taken for so much money.

Did it really respond to the explicit words of Suntory President George Sang? "This is the era when female college students are the most valuable!"

Daimaru usually reads magazines, and he has also heard about the popular "five artifacts of pickled girls" in society.

Famous cars, bouquets, precious metals, high-end restaurants, high-end hotels. With the five weapons, you will definitely be able to win undefeated.

Inviting a girl to a meal cannot be less than 50,000 yen, and 200,000 yen is a normal consumption.

The accompanying small gift should not be less than 10,000 yen, 2~40,000 yen is the best.

Three concerts a month and one movie a week are the norm.

It's just love, and it's even more amazing if you get married.

The wedding must be held in a super-class hotel, and the honeymoon must go to Omi.

The wedding room should also be built in a foreign style, and it should not be Japanese.

Not to mention the super expensive house, it is normal to talk about tens of millions of yen for a wedding.

Let's take a look at the magazine in Nanako's hand.,All kinds of content on how to win the hearts of girls by buying gifts.。

Daimaru couldn't help but shudder, is this really love?

Although he is not short of money, this kind of relationship that relies on material things to maintain is really not what he wants.

And Nanako, who was originally pure and lovely, now seems to have lost a layer of luster in Daimaru's eyes.

He knew that it wasn't Nanako that they had done anything wrong, but that the whole society was like this now.

The environment is like this, the atmosphere is like this, and the people in it can only go with the flow.

It's just that something that originally existed in news magazines suddenly appeared next to him, which made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"Daimaru, go upstairs." At this time, Yamaguchi, the head of the General Management Department, greeted him from afar.

"Hay!" Daimaru, who came back to his senses, immediately nodded respectfully in agreement.

The upstairs mentioned by the minister is Shirakawa Kaede's office, and the voiceover here, Daimaru understands it as soon as he hears it.

There are hundreds of people in the entire General Management Department, and only the minister knows about his relationship with Shirakawa Kaede.

So without Shirakawa Kaede's permission, no one would gossip about it.

Orochimaru got up and walked quickly away from Nanako and the others, who glanced slightly and continued the conversation with his girlfriends.

Coming to the door of Shirakawa Kaede's office alone, Daimaru straightened his clothes before knocking on the office door.

A vague answer of "Please enter" was heard, and Daimaru pushed the door in.

"Wait for me for two minutes" Shirakawa Kaede didn't look up, and took care of the documents in his hand.

Daimaru stood there in a proper manner, not daring to slack off in the slightest.

Although when he was a child, he chased after Shirakawa Kaede and their butts and ran around the village, but now it is different from the past, and the rules that should be there cannot be abolished.

Especially as a fawn, he has to lead by example.

"Daimaru" put down the document in his hand, and Shirakawa Kaede looked up.

"President Shirakawa." Before Daimaru could finish his blurted out, he was stopped by Shirakawa Kaede with his eyes.

"Uh, Brother Shirakawa," Omaru changed his name again, knowing that in private Shirakawa Kaede didn't like to hear such a formal name.

"Okay, you don't have to stand all the time, just sit down." After saying that, Shirakawa Kaede himself got up and sat down on the sofa in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.

A cup of coffee was poured for him, and Daimaru sat down across from him.

"How have you been in the General Management Department lately?" Picking up the coffee, Shirakawa Kaede took a sip.

"It's no problem, I've been able to adapt to most of the work." Reporting on the progress of the work once a month, Daimaru has become accustomed to this process.

Shirakawa Kaede nodded, his approximate performance was reported to him by someone. "Where would you like to go to the next department, or have you been there before and are more interested?"

The next department? For some reason, Daimaru remembered the scene he had just seen in the General Management Department.

"Next department, I want to go to the marketing department!" Daimaru replied as if he had suddenly made up his mind.

"Marketing?" Shirakawa Kaede glanced at Daimaru unexpectedly.

He thought that Daimaru, who was a little shy by nature, would prefer the current general management department.

"Hay!" Daimaru nodded, "It is said that the marketing department can access the most essential business rules of neon, and I also want to see it." ”

As a marketing department that includes products, marketing, sales, and after-sales, you can meet all kinds of people there.

In particular, the marketing planning and product sales teams experience various temptations on a daily basis.

Whether it's money, or beauty, you name it.

Daimaru also wanted to see what kind of demons and monsters could be encountered in the marketing department of the sound dog and horse in the golden age.

I believe that after staying there for a while, when I look back at Nanako and them, I will feel that everything is just like that.

Listening to Daimaru's words, Shirakawa Kaede raised his eyebrows.

It was a bit of a surprise to him, but since he had this thought, it would be better for him.

"Let's report to the marketing department next month, I'll say hello to Hasegawa-san in advance."

"Hay!" Daimaru nodded, indicating understanding.

"By the way, Brother Shirakawa, isn't the salary offered to me a little too high now?"

Daimaru remembered one more thing, and that was the issue of salary.

He was a recent graduate with little work experience.

As a result, he got a salary of nearly 400,000 yuan as soon as he came up, which is a bit too high no matter how you look at it.

You must know that the seniors who graduated last year had a general salary of about 200,000 yuan at that time.

Now it's nearly doubled, and no matter how you look at it, it feels a little abnormal.

Listening to Daimaru's question, Shirakawa Kaede couldn't help but laugh.

"Orochi, that's not a lot of salary.

Maybe it's time for you to go to the marketing department, where you can see the most incredible side of neon right now.

However, such a good situation is really rare, cherish it, and maybe you won't see it in a few years. ”

"Huh?" Daimaru subconsciously wanted to ask a few questions, but seeing that Shirakawa Kaede didn't want to say more, he restrained himself and didn't ask out loud.

"Let's get busy first, and I'll take you to Keidanren's internal meeting in a while, where you'll see a completely different side than you do now."

"Hay!" Daimaru bowed respectfully before quietly leaving the office.

Looking at his departing back, Shirakawa Kaede smiled silently.

A salary of 400,000 yen may have been a lot in the past, but it's really nothing now.

In the face of the war for talent in the talent market, Shirakawa Electric can only follow.

Otherwise, in April this year, it is impossible to say whether you can recruit people.

Because of the appreciation of the yen, as well as a series of stimulus measures by the government.

The overheating of the stock market and real estate is now spreading to all aspects of people's lives.

Money comes too quickly and easily, and it doesn't hurt to spend it.

If you want to say that the neon government's series of stimulus measures, has it stimulated domestic demand?

Yes, there must be, but the direction is a little crooked.

In addition to real estate, the fastest growing domestic demand is in the catering and clothing industries.

Especially the former, according to the statistics of the economic research institute, the total output value of the neon food industry in 87 is likely to exceed 20 trillion yen!

Do you know what the total export value of Neon Brick Brick Manufacturing was last year? Less than 30 trillion!

The physical manufacturing here includes automobiles, home appliances, semiconductors, etc., a series of hot-selling goods.

But now this figure is about to be equaled by the domestic demand of neon catering.

You can imagine how incredible and abnormal this is.

15,000 yen of gold leaf ice cream, that's just a drizzle.

The 30,000 yen "Kitanoji" gold leaf Eikata sushi rolls, and the 1Kg 100,000 yen Matsusaka Extreme Beef are all sold out at the restaurant!

This is no longer a luxury, it is inflated to the point of absurdity.

It is precisely because of these exaggerated and incredible prices that the catering industry can occupy the first place in the domestic real industry of neon.

However, this is probably not the apex, turn your head and look at the well-known companies that make products with their hearts.

It's really ironic~
