Chapter 857 Sugar-coated bullet
August 16, 1985.
A new day, a new journey, a new beginning.
This day is Wednesday. According to the Japanese, it is Shuiyo Day.
Ning Weimin likes this day very much, because water represents wealth.
According to our lunar calendar, such a day is an auspicious day, what a good fortune!
Didn’t he come to Tokyo just to make a fortune!
What else can you do in a day like this?
What made him unhappy was that he felt uncomfortable when he woke up from bed that day.
Not only did Wei Wei have a severe headache, his throat also felt very uncomfortable and ached.
He knew this very well. It was not because he was sick, but because he drank too much last night.
As for why you drink too much?
Of course it was because of the hospitality extended by Vice President Takada and Supervisor Ishikawa.
Speaking of which, Ning Weimin still underestimated the importance Supervisor Ishikawa attached to him.
Yesterday, after both parties expressed their inclination to cooperate and chatted affectionately for a while, Supervisor Ishikawa asked Section Chief Oda to send him a car to the hotel he had booked for repairs.
Then at seven o'clock in the evening, a car was sent to the hotel to pick up Ning Weimin to eat out and introduce him to Vice President Takada.
I have to say that the accommodation and restaurant arranged by Supervisor Ishikawa for Ning Weimin are of too high standards.
The accommodation is the Tokyo Prince Hotel in Minato City, which is five-star standard and has a first-class location.
The hotel is located above Shiba Park, next to Tokyo Tower and within walking distance of various train stations.
Although it is not a suite, you can see Tokyo Tower when you open the curtains in the room. All the furnishings are of high quality, and the bathroom products are all famous brands.
Moreover, the room is located on the executive floor, and you can also use the club lounge on this floor for free.
Last and most important thing is that Supervisor Ishikawa has taken the initiative to pay for Ning Weimin's room for three days. This must be praised.
You know, this room includes breakfast for 32,000 yen per day, which is equivalent to 1,200 yen in foreign exchange coupons after three days.
So since he is living in vain and taking advantage of others, what else can Ning Weimin have to find fault with?
That is naturally flattering, not to mention aggrieved.
Speaking of restaurants, the place where Ning Weimin was entertained for dinner that night was actually the legendary "White Lantern Restaurant".
Ning Weimin had been to Tokyo several times in his previous life, so he knew that Japanese restaurants have always had a very special sign to distinguish them.
That's the color of the lantern.
The restaurants without lanterns are the lowest-end, the ones with red lanterns are mid-range, and the ones that dare to hang up white lanterns are high-end restaurants.
Of course, this difference does not represent the level of cooking methods. It cannot be said that places with red lanterns and places without lanterns do not have delicious food.
This can only be said to represent the level of charging, whether it is affordable or business-oriented.
Like last night, when Ning Weimin got off the car, he saw two long white lanterns with "Daimyo Feast" hanging at the door of the restaurant.
He immediately knew that this place was on the "business" route and couldn't be cheap.
Sure enough, when he entered, Section Chief Oda, who had been waiting in the front hall to greet him, introduced him enthusiastically.
It is said that this restaurant is managed by an imperial chef who once served the emperor, and is famous in Tokyo for its banquet cuisine.
To put it bluntly, the boss of this place and Ning Weimin are of the same mind.
The so-called kaiseki cuisine is actually Japanese banquet cuisine, plus the gimmick of the emperor's chef.
Needless to say, the way the guests are fooled here is actually the same trick as Ning Weimin's trick of playing court dishes and official seats.
Well, now, Ning Weimin became more and more interested in seeing what happened and learning from it.
To be honest, it was his first time to eat at such a high-end Japanese restaurant, and he was very curious about everything.
Although I don't believe that the cooking level of the Japanese devils can be better than that of my own restaurant.
But Ning Weimin also knows that taste is too subjective.
He must see what the Japanese eat at high-end banquets, right? How is the service done?
As expected, taste aside, the environment here is indeed elegant and the service is very warm.
First of all, there are ponds, bamboo drains, rocks, flowers and trees here, which is very natural and wild.
The courtyard is surrounded by three long houses, with a sliding door facing the inside of the courtyard.
With the door open, you can drink and enjoy the scenery, and there are rocks, flowers and trees separating each other, but you can't see them directly.
It can maintain a certain degree of privacy and the design is quite exquisite.
Secondly, in order to welcome the guests, a group of young and beautiful maids quickly gathered around, greetings and guiding the way.
The process of sending them to the backyard was a kind of erotic enjoyment, which made even the vigorous Ning Weimin a little unable to bear it.
This is something that would never happen in China. It is so depraved that even men are inevitably distracted.
Ning Weimin was even more surprised when he later discovered that Supervisor Ishikawa had actually rented a longhouse.
Because no one knows the operating costs and profit margins of a restaurant better than him.
In such a big room in Tokyo, there are just a few people eating. If I charge you hundreds of thousands of yen, the restaurant owner will be afraid of losing money.
According to his estimation, based on this kind of reception, this meal could probably be equivalent to one month's salary of an ordinary Japanese person, which would cost 300,000 yen.
What concept? That's thousands of foreign exchange coupons.
So he couldn't help but said on the spot, "This is too expensive, Supervisor Ishikawa."
Ishikawa smiled and waved his hand.
"You're welcome. This is the first time we meet. You must treat Ningsang well, and this is also what Vice President Takada meant. In the past, we were in Tokyo and you were in the capital. Although we were considered colleagues, we really lacked Mutual communication and understanding. Ning Sang went to Japan this time, and we are sincerely happy.”
Indeed, Vice President Tadao Takada also came after a while. .
Exactly as Supervisor Ishikawa said, Takata also places high hopes on strengthening "emotional exchanges" between the two parties.
After learning that Ning Weimin was willing to promote win-win cooperation between the two companies, he was interested in supplying goods to the Japanese branch.
Takada, like Ishikawa, favored Ning Weimin and praised the gifts he brought to him.
Although as the second person in the Japanese branch, he still has the airs of a high-ranking leader, he is also kind-hearted and caring.
To be honest, apart from a few brief and detailed exchanges at the beginning of this meal, there was really not much business talk afterwards.
Instead, they talked a lot about the customs and customs of the capital and Ning Weimin's impressions of Tokyo when he first arrived.
Then the topic focused on sports, politics, family, and personal hobbies and pastimes.
So the atmosphere of the banquet was very relaxed, and everyone chatted harmoniously and happily. In addition, the restaurant also provides entertainers with singing and dancing performances to add to the fun. This banquet meal is of a high standard with five dishes and two soups.
We have all kinds of stock, sashimi, barbecue, boiled vegetables, fried foods, soups, mixed vegetables, rice, miso soup, pickles, fruits, etc.
These gorgeously styled and beautifully presented meals are just like the official banquets at the Tan Palace Restaurant, with each dish being served slowly.
As a result, I ate this meal slowly and leisurely for two or three hours.
Under Section Chief Oda’s repeated urgings to drink, Ning Weimin drank too much without realizing it.
Finally, we persisted until after ten o'clock, and finally reached the end of the banquet.
At this time, Ning Weimin already felt that he was stumbling when speaking and the soles of his feet were numb.
He knew in his heart that something was seriously wrong.
So in order not to be embarrassed, I was obviously very tempted and looking forward to it.
But when faced with Ishikawa's suggestion to go to a bar in Ginza to continue having fun, he had to reject it with a polite expression.
I just thanked him again and again for the hospitality, got in the car and went back to the hotel in a dignified manner.
As a result, I vomited just after returning to the room.
In the end, I didn’t even take a shower, I just brushed my teeth and went to bed smelly.
This is the whole reason why Ning Weimin felt so uncomfortable after waking up.
To be honest, recalling what happened yesterday, Ning Weimin actually had not only a headache, but also a heartache.
He felt heartbroken and regretted that he missed the great opportunity of Hu Tian Hu Di’s all-in-one package yesterday.
Had I not been so wary of mild sake and finally made myself powerless, I might have been able to avenge the Japanese devils.
That’s the legendary Ginza!
It is said that even mamasang is a beautiful place!
Looking at what he meant yesterday, Supervisor Ishikawa was willing to pay even for such a romantic enjoyment of touching his little hands.
In other words, when I woke up today, there should be someone lying next to me... No! Two Oriental girls are just right!
Oh, I can only say that the little Japanese devil is too thief and cunning.
Just like what Xiaotian persuaded me to drink yesterday, isn't this sincerely trying to persuade me?
Did you originally plan to see me make a fool of myself, or did you do this to save money?
I have to say that Ning Weimin’s idea of living in a latrine is somewhat reasonable.
Because just then he called the room service without any courtesy and ordered a sumptuous American breakfast.
Then I ran to the bathroom to take a shower.
Under the hot water from the shower, his mind became much clearer.
After that, the more he thought about what happened yesterday, the more suspicious he felt.
For no other reason, such expensive and warm hospitality is indeed too much.
Yes, the reception standard of the other party is very high.
However, if he really thinks that he is worthy of this specification, he would be wrong.
For his status, this is really exceptional treatment, and it would be almost the same if it were Song Huagui.
It is not only a question of money, but also a question of age and identity.
From his superficial observations when he first arrived here, he could see that Japanese society was very hierarchical in all aspects.
Even foreign-funded companies like Pilkington still maintain a strong sense of feudalism.
Whether Director Taniguchi treats the two front desk ladies, or Section Chief Oda treats Taniguchi like a dog, and he serves Supervisor Ishikawa like a dog, we can feel the huge class differences. .
So the more this happened, the more he was favored by two senior executives of the Japanese branch who were far older than him, the more Ning Weimin felt uneasy.
Staying in such a good hotel? To eat in such a nice place? Are there any other similar arrangements in the future?
Throwing me a few meat bones so happily is very upper class.
But why?
There is nothing good in the world without a reason.
If people are willing to do this to him, they must think that there is something worth investing in him.
Then why are you thinking about him?
If you don't understand this question clearly, if he can't give the other person what he wants.
Then this level of entertainment is not a good thing, it will only push him to extremes.
Either make him feel inferior in the end, or make him look like a cheap philistine without giving him an appropriate choice at all.
And even if he sees through this, it is always right for people to treat him well, and he can't even find a place to complain.
In this world, it is not him who sifts for others, but others who sift for him.
I was still a little confident at first, but after these two old men showed such concern, it was almost destroyed.
That’s right, a lot of bad things about people are born in their bones.
As long as a human being eats whole grains, he cannot throw them away.
He was indeed a little carried away yesterday. Faced with sugar-coated bullets, such stupid behavior must not be repeated again!
You have to think twice before you act!
Just when I was thinking of this, the doorbell rang.
Ning Weimin heard it from across the bathroom, quickly turned off the faucet, and said, "Qiu Dou, please wait."
Then I roughly wiped my wet hair with a towel, put on my yukata and walked out to open the door.
He thought his breakfast had been delivered, but when he opened the door to the room, he felt doubly embarrassed.
Because there was a beautiful and slender young girl standing at the door.
She has long legs in uniform stockings and is 1.75 meters tall. At first glance, she looks very similar to Yuki Amami. She looks like a royal sister!
Seeing his dignity, the royal sister was naturally startled. She didn't know whether it was shyness or embarrassment, but she coughed lightly.
Then he bowed his head without any humility.
"Hello. I am Rinko Kagawa from Pierre Cardon Japan Co., Ltd. Section Chief Kawasaki sent me to help you handle all the general affairs in Tokyo..."
Fuck! What a honey trap!
It’s no wonder these two old men saw through my weaknesses so easily!
If... if it happens again, I... I will take advantage of it...
