Pure gold ball heads, tungsten alloy and diamond-encrusted shafts, and of course, exquisite craftsmanship.

With such a nouveau riche golf club, Torotaro opened his mouth for 100 million yen.

Although gold is a precious metal, it is not that expensive, right?

Shirakawa Kaede is very skeptical that such an exaggerated cue is really bought?

"Maruyama-san, bring me two sets. Recently, I happened to want to find Okura-san and them to play golf, and this set of clubs is good, which is suitable as a gift. ”

Shirakawa Kaede's suspicion had just risen, and at the same time, Nagata Masa, who was beside him, couldn't wait to order two sets.

Ah, did this slap in the face come so quickly?

"I'll have two sets too, so this limited edition custom club is not to be missed."

Immediately afterwards, Kazuo Ogawa also asked for two sets.

Well, now Shirakawa Kaede has begun to doubt his own aesthetics, whether he has been out of touch with the masses for too long.

What he sees as a pompous and vulgar cue is like a treasure in the eyes of others.

In fact, this is the mainstream aesthetic of the bubble era, and Shirakawa Kaede's vision is indeed a little out of place in the current era.

After all, gold leaf ice cream, gold leaf sushi, gold leaf sake, etc. are all the rage, so it is only natural to have another set of gold ball sticks.

To put it bluntly, where there is demand, there is a market. At this moment, Nagata Zheng's expression of love speaks for itself.

Again, under the stimulus of huge wealth, and in order to highlight the difference between themselves and ordinary people, rich people just want to spend money.

And the money has to be spent with a different effect, and the price is just a bunch of numbers.

The gold cue he tossed out had not yet been sold, but it ushered in a good start, and Torotaro was in a good mood.

"Rest assured, your club number must be the one at the top.

White Deer clubs are also limited to 650 sets, while stocks last, and will never be repeated. ”

Having been in the business world for so many years, Torotaro also understands the truth that rare things are expensive.

This set of clubs will be launched under the name of Shiraka Trading Company, in order to increase its Biggle. Torotaro also contacted an internationally authoritative gold appraisal agency and a diamond grading agency.

They issue a certificate of qualification for each set of clubs, which is delivered to the customer along with the clubs themselves.

In addition to the gorgeous appearance, it is also necessary to have an authoritative certificate of appraisal to reflect the difference of these clubs.

It's still the same sentence, Bigg, unique, gorgeous, amazing, these effects are what the rich want.

As for how to sell or promote these clubs? Isn't there a ready-made living advertisement right in front of you?

"Xiao Feng, the pose for the meeting must be set up and give full play to your invincible money charm."

"Go, go~" Shirakawa Kaede pushed him away in disgust.

What is the invincible charm of money? Isn't it okay to remove the word "money"?

The indignant Shirakawa Kaede picked up the local tyrant gold club, and the boss walked towards the court unhappily.

Torataro, who didn't care at all, secretly poked and poked again, and he was instructing Shirakawa Kaede to take a promotional photo later.

Yes, Torotaro called Shirakawa Kaede for help this time just to promote his golden cue.

With such a sky-high luxury, there is no point in advertising on TV.

Because the audience they are facing is not ordinary people at all, and if they want to sell luxury jewelry efficiently, they can only find celebrities to bring goods.

Who could be more convincing than being the richest man in the world? Shirakawa Kaede himself is the top of the celebrity circle.

It would be a waste not to pull him over and get a handful of wool.

Therefore, when Torotaro designed these clubs, he had already thought about who should be used to endorse them later.

The confused Shirakawa Kaede was caught on the scene by Torotaro in this way, and then posed with all kinds of poses under the command of the photographer.

These photos should be realistic, especially the logo on the club, which must be clearly presented.

Hakuka Trading Co., Ltd. is a comprehensive trading company established to operate the Lujiao Resort, which involves a series of tertiary industries such as tourism, catering, and shopping.

Of course, it's not surprising that in the bubble era, one or two luxury items are occasionally launched.

These photos are likely to be on the cover of some high-end magazines, of course, the content is not directly promoting their clubs, but more likely some other reports.

Directly take the richest man to advertise, what a discount.

The best effect is to inadvertently draw people's attention to the club in Shirakawa Kaede's hand.

As the richest man, ordinary people are also curious about his private life.

If there is such a high-definition picture published in a magazine, then it is bound to arouse the curiosity of the public, and then start to study every penny of him.

From clothes, shoes, hats to clubs, you're sure to get ripped upside down.

At that time, it was quietly released, and the white deer cue in Shirakawa Kaede's hand was worth 100 million yen!

Tsk, isn't this gimmick coming right away?

As long as the discussion is up, then there is no need to worry about selling.

To be honest, Shirakawa Kaede doesn't like to show his head in the media, after all, he is not an artist, so there is no need to show his private side to everyone.

But for the sake of this sky-high cue, he still got up honestly and went for business.

Alas, it's not easy to make some money these days. Take advantage of the bubble to make a profit, there will be no such good time in the future.

Tossed for most of the day, and waited until the photographer finished work before Torotaro let go of his little friend.

"Shirakawa-san, I heard that you have made a big move recently?"

Nagata Masa, who had swung a few shots, walked over with two bottles of drinks.

"It's not counting, I just want to improve the business of Shirakawa Mutual Entertainment."

After several years of development, Baichuan Interactive Entertainment has become a first-line brand in Neon.

There are many new generation artists under SAOND records, and Daying has gone through a lot of tossing in the past few years, I can't say how it is, but at least it has begun to make a profit.

There is also a linkage with Tokuma Bookstore, film and television, music, and toys, these fields are in full bloom.

However, all the influence is limited to neon, and in order to open up the future internationalization route, Shirakawa Kaede is ready to launch his own money ability.

"I heard that Shirakawa-san has been in contact with Beimi recently, and this is preparing to attack Hollywood?"

Wiped the sweat off his face with a towel, and Kazuo Ogawa also came over to have fun.

Seeing the gossip expressions on the faces of these two people, Shirakawa Kaede smiled.

"It can be said that in order to increase brand influence, but also to break through the software and hardware barriers in the field of audition in the future.

It is necessary for Shirakawa Electric to have its own media resources in the world. ”

Listening to his explanation, Nagata Masashi and Kazuo Ogawa both nodded approvingly.

Today's neon has a great influence in the world, so big companies are worthy of its identity when they enter overseas~.

The expansion of the bubble makes the neon people look at the international environment with a condescending attitude.

Shirakawa Mutual Entertainment has money, so it is also appropriate to go to Hollywood for mergers and acquisitions, after all, this is what is needed for business expansion.

And in addition to Shirakawa Mutual Entertainment, Sony and Panasonic are also said to be in contact with Hollywood.

Look, everyone is quite at the same pace in the field of entertainment and media, and they all want to dominate overseas.

They played golf with Nagata and had another meal, and later that day Shirakawa Kaede returned to Tokyo without stopping.

Recently, Shirakawa Mutual Entertainment and Shirakawa Electric are frequently in contact with Paramount, one of the seven largest Hollywood companies.

There are still seven in Hollywood now, and even eight in previous years.

It's just that in 81, after Luen Mei was funded by the MGM boss, the eight became seven.

Warner, MGM, Paramount, Columbia, Universal, 20th Century Fox, Disney, these are the major studios that are now dominant in Hollywood.

To be honest, the first person Shirakawa Kaede wanted to contact was Warner, after all, the other party has popular IPs such as the DC Universe and the Harry Potter series.

But the most fundamental reason is that Warner is now the leader of the seven Hollywood majors.

It has a series of high-quality assets such as film industry, studio, TV company, animated games, DC comics, records, etc., and IP is only one part of it.

A complete industrial chain can make up for the shortage of Baichuan Mutual Entertainment or Baichuan Electric in these fields.

However, Shirakawa Kaede was a step late, and Times Group had already approached Warner two years ago.

One is the largest publishing group in the United States, and the other is the largest media group in the United States, and the transaction between the two Shirakawa Holdings really can't get involved.

After all, they are all local American companies, and with Warner's hegemonic status in the media field, even if Shirakawa Holdings has money, it may not be able to achieve its wishes.

If you don't do it, halfway through the negotiations, you will be stopped by the US government.

So in the end, under the trade-off, Shirakawa Holdings is targeting Paramount.

There are many reasons to choose it, and it goes without saying that it has a variety of IPs.

The future Transformers series, Mission Impossible series, Tomb Raider series, Terminator series, as well as the gold-absorbing "Titanic", the word-of-mouth king "The Godfather", etc., are all Paramount's assets.

Of course, some of them haven't been taken down by Paramount yet, but the foundation is there.

In addition, Paramount itself is also the oldest of the major Hollywood film and television companies, and the "Paramount Act" was enacted to break its monopoly.

However, Paramount later suffered a business crisis and went bankrupt in 33, and it was not reconstituted until 35.

The current Paramount was taken over by Gulf Western Industries in '66 and became its subsidiary.

In terms of background, Paramount is not a pure media company, after all, the parent company is engaged in industry.

And this is precisely the reason why Shirakawa Holdings wants to take it, and Gulf Western Industries acquired Pyraman only for investment.

Its basic market is in the industry, so if Paramount is used as a trading object, presumably they will not have any psychological burden.

After all, if it's just an investment, then there's no business to talk about.

In addition, among the current Hollywood majors, Paramount is at a low ebb.

At this time, the contact with the Gulf Western Industry is the best time for Baichuan Holdings to enter the market.

In the late '70s, Paramount was in Bari. There have been glorious times under Diller's leadership.

But Barry. Diller's dream was to build a new television network, and Gulf Western Industries had no intention of attempting such an adventure.

So in '84, Barry. Diller accepted an invitation from media mogul Murdoch to become his fourth television network.

The two assistants who were with him at the beginning, Michael and Jeffrey, were also poached by Disney one after another.

With the loss of the troika, Paramount's business situation plummeted.

After a few years, even Martin Davis, the owner of Gulf Western Industries, was a little overwhelmed.

Shirakawa Kaede, who got the news, immediately hooked up with the other party.
