Chapter 75: Naoto Chiba
"Hey, Photographer, you started eating from the board, and now the flight attendant has just informed you that you will land at the new Tokyo International Airport in 20 minutes, you wipe your mouth with a tissue, you look like a refugee eating, and you will lose the face of Hong Kong people. Huo Dongjun turned his head and said to Photographer Wei, who was stuffing sushi into his mouth.
Photographer Wei swallowed the sushi in his mouth, and took another sip of water before saying to Huo Dongjun:
"I can't imagine that the in-flight meal provided by the Japanese flight is so punctual, sashimi salad, sushi, cheesecake and curry rice, the cheapest Japanese food in Hong Kong costs 100 or dozens of yuan, and now there is a free meal, of course, I can't miss it, if I am not afraid of drinking and getting drunk, I want to drink some sake!"
Liang Jiarong, who was sitting next to Photowei, shook his head speechlessly, when Huo Dongjun introduced Photowei to Leung Jiarong, Leung Jiarong thought that he was a master of the world, because Zhaowei carried a camera on his back, dressed in casual sportswear, with a cold expression and closed lips, very much like the kind of fanatic who can set foot in the world for photography.
But after getting on the plane, the demeanor of this master disappeared, first looking at the flight attendant with a salty and wet face, and then drooling over the plane meal like a refugee.
Huo Dongjun rubbed his forehead with his hand, turned around and stopped looking at Photography Wei, this old man was very interested after hearing that he had made a salty and wet magazine, especially when he heard that Huo Dongjun was going to take him to Tokyo, Japan, the holy land of body art in Southeast Asia, Photography Wei didn't even ask about his salary, he came with Huo Dongjun with the camera on his back, and he looked like a devout disciple who came to make a pilgrimage.
"Miss, do you know the address of that company?" Seeing Lin Jiali beside her by the window flipping through a Japanese fashion magazine with a relaxed expression, Huo Dongjun asked.
It may be that Huo Dongjun's words that day stimulated Lin Jiali, this Miss Lin deliberately wore a women's black suit today to show her professionalism, a black suit with a black pencil skirt, her legs were wrapped in black stockings, and on her feet were a pair of black high heels with tough lines, even her face was the same as Lin Zhizhi, wearing vinyl glasses, her long hair was tied behind her head, and she was pinned with a hairpin.
If you only look at Lin Jiali's appearance, it has the momentum of a big company OL, at least when Lin Jiali appeared, Photography Wei and Liang Jiarong, and even Li En Taishan Xiaoxin, who sent a few people to the airport, were dumbfounded.
In Huo Dongjun's eyes, Lin Jiali's appearance is very ordinary, and almost all later generations of OL are dressed up in this way, but in Hong Kong in 84 years, most working women have not learned how to make themselves look like workplace beauties.
There were even a few men who were bold enough and confident enough to hand over business cards to Lin Jiali, wanting to leave Lin Jiali's contact information.
At this time, hearing Huo Dongjun ask herself, Lin Jiali took off her vinyl glasses and kneaded her eyebrows twice with a soft wattle, and said:
"Before boarding, I have contacted this Tokenori Co., Ltd. and informed them of the landing time of our flight, and they attach great importance to us coming from Hong Kong and have arranged for a vehicle to wait at the airport. ”
Huo Dongjun, who was addicted to smoking, threw a piece of chewing gum into his mouth and pursed his lips disdainfully at Lin Jiali, this woman never forgot to speak in a didactic tone.
A Japanese flight attendant in a white and blue uniform appeared in front of the passengers again, and a sweet female voice was heard on the cabin radio:
"Please put the table in front of you back upright, we are about to land at New Tokyo International Airport, thank you for taking this flight......"
The plane slowly folded its flaps and landed towards the runway, and through the porthole, the Tone River, the longest river in Chiba Prefecture, was meandering in the distance.
New Tokyo International Airport has arrived......
Huo Dongjun and the four of them took the bus of the new Tokyo International Airport out of the airport, and only then walked out of the airport exit, a middle-aged man wearing a black straight suit had already walked outside, and a young man who looked like an international student was standing next to him.
"How many people are from Hong Kong, Mr. Huo and his entourage?"
Huo Dongjun looked at Lin Jiali beside him, this Miss Lin really didn't say much, and actually really contacted the other company, so he nodded to the young man and said, "We are." ”
The young man said a few words of Japanese to the middle-aged man behind him, and the middle-aged man walked up to Huo Dongjun, bowed slightly, and said a long paragraph of Japanese with a serious face.
Lin Jiali almost finished translating at the same time, and every time the middle-aged man said a word, she immediately said to Huo Dongjun in Cantonese:
"Hello, Mr. Huo, I'm Daiki Ichihara, who was arranged by Togonori Co., Ltd. to receive you and his party, it's a pleasure to meet you, I will take you to the headquarters of the club in Chuo-ku, Tokyo, please come with me, our vehicle has been arranged. ”
Huo Dongjun also lowered his head slightly: "Thank you, Mr. Ichihara." ”
Lin Jiali translated Huo Dongjun's words in Japanese to Ichihara Daiki, Ichihara Daiki smiled, leaned over, stood on his side, and made a gesture of please to several people.
Dongquan Hedian should attach great importance to Huo Dongjun and a few people, and actually arranged two Toyota Land Cruisers to pick up the plane, this kind of car is considered a bad street in the mainland in later generations, but in Japan in the eighties, it is an out-and-out high-end model, the space of the whole vehicle is large and wide, the Japanese first called the Land Cruiser "moose", until the nineties changed the name to "domineering".
Leung Ka-wing and Photo-Wei were arranged to be in the lead car, accompanied by the young interpreter hired by Dongquan Hedian, while Fok Dongjun and Lin Jiali sat on the Land Cruiser in the back, and Ichihara Daiki sat in the co-pilot.
On the way, Daiki Ichihara sat sideways in the passenger seat almost all the time, introducing the scenery of Chiba County on the road to Huo Dongjun and Lin Jiali.
Although the jurisdiction of the new Tokyo International Airport belongs to the Tokyo Metropolitan Government, it is actually located in Narita City, Chiba Prefecture, which is still some distance from Tokyo.
Daiki Ichihara is a qualified guide, and he never let the atmosphere cool down on the road, especially when he learned that Lin Jiali, who is proficient in Japanese, is an international student who graduated from Japan, and chatted with Lin Jiali about the latest campus built by Nihon University in Hokkaido.
This made Lin Jiali a little surprised, she had the impression that the people who engage in erotic photography should be low-quality, macho and obscene men, but Ichihara Daiki is completely inconsistent with her imagination, from beginning to end, even if Huo Dongjun asked about some management issues of Dongquan Collection, Ichihara Daiki opened his mouth to talk about those artists, and he was very calm, and used a very pertinent tone to introduce the models who had recently launched his photo album, and when it came to model images, he would only use words that were of high quality or excellent image, which even Lin Jiali felt dry.
It took an hour's drive to arrive at Togonori Co., Ltd., a small three-story white building in Chuo-ku, Tokyo, with only a small metal nameplate on it that read the words Togonori Co., Ltd. on it.
Ichihara Daiki helped Huo Dongjun open the door of the back seat and politely asked Huo Dongjun to get out of the car.
Waiting into this small building, Huo Dongjun's first feeling was clean, the lady at the reception desk politely greeted Ichihara Dahui, Ichihara Dahui nodded slightly, and then led Huo Dongjun through the corridor, took the elevator to the third floor, in the elevator, Ichihara Dahui said to Huo Dongjun:
"Mr. Fok, your magazine is the first company in Hong Kong to consult with us on the modeling business, and the president of your magazine attaches great importance to it, so he deliberately waited in the reception room on the third floor. ”
Regarding Ichihara Daiki's words, Huo Dongjun believes that the Japanese have always tried to be perfect in dealing with customers, and strive to grasp every business, otherwise in general, the demand for photos like "Men's Weekly" will only need a ministerial level or executive officer to be in charge.
The elevator opened, Ichihara Daiki led the four people to a door, knocked respectfully on the door, and a man's voice came from inside, and after getting a response, Ichihara Daiki gently pushed the door open, bowed and said to the people inside:
"President, Mr. Huo and his entourage from Hong Kong have arrived. ”
"Oh, Ichihara-kun has worked hard, please invite Mr. Huo and them in, I want to ask them to forgive me in person I can't go downstairs to greet me. The man in the parlor said.
"Hay. Ichihara Daiki raised his head and said to Huo Dongjun and them: "Mr. Huo, please come in, Mr. President deeply regrets that he can't go downstairs to greet you, please forgive me, I will retire first, goodbye." ”
After speaking, Ichihara Daiki took a few steps back, and then bowed slightly to Huo Dongjun and the others, and turned to leave.
Huo Dongjun took the lead in entering the living room, the whole living room is about eighty square meters, is decorated in a typical Japanese style, the whole living room is elegant and simple, a low tea table is placed in the center of the living room, there are several futons around it, the outward panes are opened, revealing the scenery outside, at this time with his back to the balcony, facing the tea table futon at the door, there is a man in his early thirties who is kneeling, wearing a loose linen white robe, smiling, but his face is slightly pale.
A young woman in a Japanese kimono knelt beside the man, picking up the tea set with a bamboo tea stack and putting it in boiling water to disinfect it.
"You may be seated. The man said to Huo Dongjun.
Huo Dongjun's face remained unchanged, but he was a little suspicious in his heart, the president of a company received guests, and used this kind of Japanese-style living room to look a little abrupt, this style is like the hospitality customs of some old-fashioned societies in Japan.
Huo Dongjun took off the leather shoes on his feet, then stepped on the floor and walked over, kneeling opposite the man, Photowei and Liang Jiarong looked at the rest of the futon, but finally did not sit down.
"I'll go out and eat a cigarette first. Photographer Wei stared at the kimono beauty a few times, if it wasn't for the fear of being accused of infringement, he wanted to take a picture of the camera, Liang Jiarong pulled him to speak, and then slowly walked out of the door.
Only Lin Jiali also took off her high heels, walked over with a pair of black silk beautiful feet on the floor, and knelt beside Huo Dongjun.
"He is the president of Toquan Generie Co., Ltd., Naoto Chiba. ”
After kneeling and sitting down, Lin Jiali whispered beside Huo Dongjun, Huo Dongjun nodded, and said to Chiba Naoto opposite:
"President Chiba, it's a pleasure to meet you. ”
Without waiting for Lin Jiali to translate, the kimono woman next to her had already translated Huo Dongjun's words beside Chiba Naoto, Chiba Naoto bowed slightly to Huo Dongjun, put away his smile and said:
"Mr. Huo, please forgive me for not being able to go downstairs to greet me in person, I was in a car accident not long ago, my leg injury has not healed, and I still need someone to serve in a wheelchair when traveling, please bear with me. ”
After speaking, he bowed slightly to Huo Dongjun.
Huo Dongjun propped his hands on his legs, and said in a steady tone: "President Chiba has arranged for someone to pick up the plane, I am grateful, this time, I thought it was to communicate with your company's business class, but I didn't expect to be specially entertained by President Chiba, thank you." ”
