Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After leaving Narita Airport, the car did not rush to Tokyo. Instead, it drove directly into Narita City and stopped in the parking lot of a four-star hotel.  There is no other reason, because the office of Media Asia¡¯s Japan branch is located in Narita City.  The main reason why we do not set up an office in Tokyo is because of the current land prices in Japan, which even companies like Media Asia who come from Hong Kong, where land is very expensive, can¡¯t afford it.  It is no exaggeration to say that the current Japanese property market prices and rents are among the highest in the world.  In Japan in the early 1970s, in order to prevent the "Nixon shock" (the United States abandoned the gold standard and led to the collapse of the Bretton Woods system) and the economic deterioration, the then Japanese Prime Minister Kakuei Tanaka proposed the "Japanese Islands Transformation Plan" in 1919, advocating bold  The torrent of transformation to urban concentration will spread the vitality of the nation and the strong remaining power of the Japanese economy to the entire Japanese archipelago.  Use the national reallocation of industry and the intensification of knowledge, the construction of new lines and highways across the country, and the formation of information and communication networks as levers to eliminate the gap between cities and rural areas, and Japan's coastal and inland areas.  Subsequently, the Japanese government vigorously promoted modern infrastructure across the country to eliminate the gap between urban and rural areas. With the re-planning of industrial and agricultural areas and the expressway and Xinyu Line (high-speed railway) as the core, it comprehensively promoted the property market price, just like a rocket.  It started to fly into the sky fiercely.  Without the intervention of external forces, the "Japanese Islands Reconstruction Plan" should be regarded as one of the most successful cases in the history of world economics of using the state to guide macroeconomic development.  It is a pity that Japan is an incomplete country that was castrated after its defeat in World War II. After the United States experienced several economic crises in the 1970s and 1980s, its global influence plummeted. Its domestic products began to compete with those from Europe and Japan.  After producing similar products, they intervened with military and administrative means, forcing Japan, Germany and other countries to sign the famous Plaza Accord in the 1980s, forcing the appreciation of the Japanese yen and the German mark.  Since the "Plaza Agreement" caused the Japanese yen to appreciate sharply against the U.S. dollar, overseas hot money poured into Japan in large quantities, and more Japanese funds were liberated from the manufacturing industry. From housing prices to the stock market, from overseas acquisitions to financing and lending, the entire Japan  The economy has fallen into an extremely crazy state, and land prices have also risen sharply. Initially, the Tokyo area was extremely hot, and then the rising trend spread to Osaka, Nagoya and other large cities.  After entering 1987, the rise in land prices can be described as "crazy". The price of commercial land in Tokyo rose by 48% in one year.  , the price of residential land has increased, and the increase has exceeded that of the "Japanese Islands Renovation" period.  The year 19RR was even more terrifying. Commercial land prices in Tokyo increased by U%, and residential land prices increased by UR. Compared with 1985, when they started to rise, Tokyo's commercial land prices increased by 9 times, and residential land prices also increased by 1 times.  .  By the end of 1987, the total current value of land in Japan was 1,673 trillion yen, which was nine times the total current value of land in the United States, which has a land area twice that of Japan.  By the early 1990s, only Chiyoda Ward in Tokyo, where many important institutions in Japan, including the imperial family, were located, had a land value close to that of New York State or the total land prices of a small European country, Portugal and the Netherlands. This led to a widely circulated saying:  The price of land in Tokyo can buy the entire United States.  Although Japan's economic bubble burst due to the sudden withdrawal of international hot money at the beginning of last year, loans guaranteed by land also faced great risks. Major banks had to sell their land and real estate at low prices to withdraw funds, which caused Japan's  The current property market prices have plummeted by almost half from their peak.  However, at this time, Japan's economic winter has just arrived. The still outrageously high land prices in Tokyo are still too high. Although Lin Xiaozhi is rich, he does not want to be a fool who has nothing to do with spending money.  In addition, Narita City is also very close to Tokyo, so Media Asia has set up its branch office in Japan here. If necessary, you can get to Tokyo in a few dozen minutes.  Of course, the premise is that there will be no traffic jams.  ", just rest in this hotel first. I'm waiting for your inspection at the company at any time. There are not many places to play in Narita. You can have a picnic in the park near the Tone River or go to Naritayama Shinshoji Temple.  Not bad. Do you need me to arrange it?" Deng Yuanlong asked him after helping to deliver the luggage to the room.  Lin Xiaozhi refused without thinking, "No need." He was not interested in Huang Lao's studies. Lin Xiaozhi, who had no religious beliefs, was not interested in visiting temples.  Rather than having a picnic in Japan, where we don't understand the language, it's more suitable to have a picnic on the beach in Hong Kong.  Although the Lin family has not purchased any private islands, there are many islands around Hong Kong. In the past year, he has used the names of his two wives to buy properties and villas on several scenic islands, including two  Three have several private beaches.  When he has nothing to do, he also likes to take his family and friends to the beach for dinner and fishing. He is much happier than having a picnic in Japan where he cannot speak the language.  What¡¯s more, he didn¡¯t come to Japan for fun this time.  &nbsp"Has Kadokawa Rihihiko contacted you recently?" "He just came here yesterday and wanted to lend us 300 million (about 00,000 US dollars) in his private capacity to purchase the shares of Kadokawa Bookstore held by several shareholders.  , to strengthen his voice. Although we were notified before to provide him with some help, Kadokawa Rihihiko cannot provide any collateral, not to mention that the recent situation is not very favorable to him, so we are ready to wait for you to come.  "Decided." Lin Xiaozhi nodded but said nothing. 300 million was almost 18 million Hong Kong dollars. He did a little conversion in his mind and figured it out.  For him, the money was not something he couldn't get, but he and Kadokawa Rihihiko were not close friends, let alone friends. The only thing he could do was to put it bluntly, each could get what he wanted.  Deng Yuanlong¡¯s considerations are not unreasonable. Judging from the current internal situation of Kadokawa, his brother Kadokawa Haruki has been the president of the company more than ten years ago, and his influence is deep-rooted.  Although his younger brother, Kadokawa Rihihiko, has the support of company veterans, he himself does not hold too many shares of Kadokawa Bookstore, so he is inherently at a disadvantage.  No matter how you look at it, it is difficult for Kadokawa Haruki to compete with Kadokawa Haruki, but Hayashi Takashi decided to give Kadokawa Haruki a hand after only a brief consideration.  The stubborn Kadokawa Haruki would definitely not be able to sell Kadokawa Pictures to him. Although Hayashi Takashi didn't know what this well-known business tycoon in Japan was thinking, Kadokawa Pictures had been losing money every year since the early 1980s.  It's a shame that he can persevere with such determination, but his attitude has been very clear. It is impossible to sell Kadokawa Pictures, which he values ??so much, to himself.  Media Asia really doesn¡¯t have many options if it wants to establish a firm foothold in Japan. The Japanese authorities have strictly controlled domestic films since before World War II. After decades of operation, although it is not a piece of cake, foreigners want to enter Japan. Share  The world's second largest movie box office market has only two options: either cooperate with local film companies and theaters and accept their blackmail; or it can only spend money directly in Japan like the five American giants with deep pockets and strong backgrounds.  Building another theater chain forced Japanese theater companies to recognize and accept them.  I would also like to thank the Japanese economic bubble in the 1990s, which created another opportunity for other film industry giants who were interested in entering the Japanese market in the early 1990s.  If Hayashi Takashi remembers correctly, around the end of this year, Hisaku Horisaku, the president of Nikkatsu Co., Ltd., one of the top five film companies in Japan and known as the "Japanese Film Czar", will become critically ill.  With the departure of the czar, Nikkatsu quickly fell into operational conflicts and conflicts between shareholders and management. Not long after, the Sanada family, the major shareholder, sold its Nikkatsu shares to the American film giant  MGM.  MGM should have been eyeing Nikkatsu for a long time, otherwise it would be impossible. Soon after President Hori Kusaku became critically ill, he bought out the shares of the Sanada family, the major shareholder. Therefore, Hayashi Takashi guessed that even if he wanted to get involved, it would be too late.  .  Fortunately, he still has another choice, which is Kadokawa Pictures, which despite losing money for years, is not only strong but also owns dozens of theaters under the painstaking management of Kadokawa Haruki.  Now the internal fighting between the Kadokawa brothers has undoubtedly provided him with a lot of convenience. With the support of the company veterans, if he provides some more help, I believe it is not impossible for Kadokawa Rihihiko to overthrow his brother Kadokawa Haruki.  Kadokawa Haruki is also a well-known lothario in Japan. Since the 1970s, he has experienced three weddings and has had scandals with many stars who have made movies for Kadokawa Films. Among them, the biggest one is him  A night stay at Yakushimaru Hiroko's house was reported.  Until last year, after Hiroko Yakushimaru married the famous Japanese singer Koji Tamaki, the media reported that Hiroko Yakushimaru suffered domestic violence because of this incident.  In my memory, Kadokawa Haruki was arrested and imprisoned a year later for embezzling company property and taking drugs, and was later kicked out of Kadokawa Bookstore.  With these memories still there, Hayashi Takashi decided to push Kadokawa Rikohiko behind his back so that he could buy Kadokawa Pictures from him.  However, although 300 million is not a lot for him, it is not appropriate to give it to him so easily.  Lin Xiaozhi immediately told Deng Yuanlong that he would have people talk to Kadokawa Rikihiko in person. The money could be lent to him, but he must obtain a more favorable price for Kadokawa Pictures.  In addition to personally sitting in Narita City and supervising the Japanese branch's promotional work on "League of Assassins" for two days, on the third day after arriving in Japan, he took only two accompanying bodyguards and got on the train alone.  A car driving from Tokyo was heading towards Tokyo.
