Chapter 156 Neon Features Must Try

Who says the night is black?

The night in Neon Tokyo is like a colorful picture drawn on black paper with neon lights and LEDs, full of charm and desire.

From one corner, it feels as if you are slowly entering the game scene, a sense of déjà vu of Vice City.

Like all international metropolises, Tokyo is a jungle of steel and concrete built up by skyscrapers of varying heights.

If you look at it during the day, it will feel a bit crowded and depressing, and it can't get rid of the coldness and hardness.

But on a night like this, the situation is quite different. The night gives Tokyo a charm and warmth.

The bright or soft lights shining through these huge buildings add to the exquisite look.

There are also those huge illuminated advertisements and TV screens that embellish the hazy night of Tokyo.

Looking out of the car window, Milo saw the winding elevated road. The river of cars on the road was met with bright yellow lights and slowly receding red taillights. This was the melody of Tokyo's flowing night.

The most beautiful scenery of Tokyo unfolds right before your eyes. The orange Tokyo Tower is shining all over, and the beautiful Sky Tree echoes it in the distance. The whole city looks like millions of shining stars.

“…Walter Mondale’s asking price was not high.”

"Or should I say, this person is more rational."

"He didn't make any unreasonable demands. He just told me that he would return to China to perform his duties next month."

"And after returning home, I will immediately participate in the Minnesota Senate election."

Looking out the car window, the dreamlike and bustling city night view is probably only comparable to Manhattan in the United States.

Milo was holding a sturdy satellite phone and talking to his grandfather back home.

There is nearly thirteen hours time difference between Tokyo and Boston.

It is nine o'clock in the evening in Tokyo, and it is breakfast time in Boston.

John Blackburn listened to the general process of his grandson's conversation with Walter Mondale tonight.

Old Blackburn judged: "It is clear that Minnesota people do not think highly of Mondale, at least within the Democratic Party. I think the Humphrey family may have given up on Mondale, otherwise he would not have sought support from the Democratic Party outside."

Hearing another name he didn't recognize, Milo sighed as he looked out the window at the Tokyo Tower.

If possible, Milo really didn't want to hang out with these political people.

Too dirty, too colorful, too tiring.

However, the reality is that no matter where you are, no matter what civilization, race or country you are from.

If a person wants to gain power and climb to a higher position, it is impossible not to come into contact with this kind of thing.

The same is true even when doing business.

Especially in the United States, politics and business are never separated but are integrated into one.

And Milo also knew that he could get up first.

In addition to being able to cheat.

The main reason is the strong political family buff on him.

Without this BUFF, you would not be able to achieve this unless you possess some immortal supernatural power.

Otherwise, no matter how powerful he is, he would probably become one of the many white gloves of the United States.

Or they were just thrown away and buried somewhere without knowing where.

So even though he sighed, he still took the initiative to ask his grandfather what the name "Humphrey" meant in Minnesota.

"Oh, Humphrey, Hubert Humphrey. He was Lyndon Johnson's deputy. He did a great job in Minnesota and left a great influence. Have you heard of Dayton Hudson? That's their company."

Old Blackburn explained it briefly, and simply said that Humphrey was one of the local bosses in Minnesota.

Like Blackburn, Cabrera, Massachusetts.

Typical American local bosses, there are several of them in every state.

As American writer Fernand Lundberg pointed out in his book Sixty American Families.

American politics is actually controlled by the 60 richest families.

But the reality is that there are more than 60...

"Anyway..." Milo said as he watched the team return to the Hilton Hotel he had booked, "Do you think it's worth it?"

"That's up to you, dear. A lot of times it's just like running a business."

“As long as you think you can potentially recoup your investment, or the return will far exceed your investment, then it’s worth a try.”

Old Blackburn said: "After all, there is no such thing as 100% certainty in the world, whether it is business, commerce or anything else."

"Okay. I understand. Have a nice day, my dear grandfather."

"Haha, have a nice night, my dear Milo."

“…”

After hanging up the phone, Milo closed his eyes and began to think.

The elder Blackburn’s advice was the same as that given by Milo’s own political advisers at the Smith Foundation.

All are worth investing in, but you should be cautious.

With no sign of a sure win for Walter Mondale.

Try not to anger Mondale's political enemies, so as not to make enemies in Minnesota for no reason.

These are all mature and prudent words.

"call……"

After thinking for a while, he let out a breath.

Feeling the car stop, Milo knew they had arrived at the hotel.

It was Wendy who came to open the car door for him.

Wendy followed her boss's brisk steps and whispered:

"Just now, Clay Mondale sent over the five Sakura girls from last night. I asked them to wait in the lobby for now. Boss, what do you mean?"

Milo paused for a moment, then said, "Where is it? I'll go take a look."

Yes, Milo really doesn't like politics.

He felt it was too complicated and brain-burning, and sometimes too frivolous, too outrageous and too dirty.

But he very much enjoyed the power that came with politics.

Most of the time, they are even more fascinating than direct money.

The simplest truth is that if Milo Blackburn was just a simple businessman.

Even if he was as rich as Bill Gates, he would not be able to enjoy the level of enjoyment he had last night when he came to Tokyo.

Now that I enjoy the special powers brought by politics.

You can dislike politics, but you must never hate it or stay away from it.

That would only be a way to death.

"You mean to say that you will follow me for as long as I stay in Neon?"

I got the news from Takako Tokiwa.

Milo smiled, but was thinking.

If so, it would involve more than just Walter Mondale.

It's obvious.

Some local bosses in Neon should have also noticed my arrival.

Because Mondale really has the ability to make them spend a night with him.

But Mundell will step down and return home next month.

The old man didn't have the ability to keep them with him for more than ten days or even dozens of days.

Unless he continues to be the emperor of Japan here.

"Yes……"

Takako Tokiwa's attitude is still so gentle, so well-behaved, and so like an Sakura girl.

The other four also lowered their heads slightly, indicating the same attitude as Takako Tokiwa.

so……

Milo felt that the local tyrants must have also contributed.

Only in this way can these five most popular female stars in Japan be rendered powerless to resist.

Milo hesitated for a moment, but did not refuse at all.

Just kidding, why not play with something that comes to your door? Although it is highly unlikely that you will play with it for free, there are only a few things that men want in this world.

Women are definitely one of them.

These five of them, no matter their appearance, figure or fame, are absolutely the best among women.

Of course Milo couldn't let it go.

Since they think they are playboys, let them think so.

Thinking of this, he went into the room to continue enjoying the gentle service of the five Sakura girls.

Milo called Kenny and David over and asked Kenny, "How are the preparations going?"

“It’s ready.”

Kenny answered first, then he hesitated, "Boss, do you really want to do this? You know, although I am confident, there is always a chance of something going wrong..."

"I'm not afraid myself, so why are you afraid? This is what I asked you to do."

"But the probability is very low, only about one in a thousand. But it is still a probability. With your status, there is really no need to take such a huge risk."

Kenny persuaded.

At this time David also said: "Boss, I think so too. You can take another car and I will drive that one. If it doesn't work, you can have someone put some makeup on me. I am the same height as you, boss, so we should look alike."

"You two don't need to say anything. I've made up my mind. This is it."

Milo waved his hand at them and said confidently, "You just need to be prepared and follow my orders. Understand?"

Kenny and David looked at each other helplessly and could only nod in agreement.

I knew this was going to happen, Kenny thought.

If dissuasion is useful.

The boss shouldn't have been there that day on the cliff in the Bay Area.

I really don’t know what the boss is thinking.

Even if I have to do that kind of thing.

Wouldn't it be better to let those Italians, or a few of them, supervise?

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

The boss has to go there in person. Does he really like to see his enemies’ fear before they die?

Sometimes Kenny felt that his boss was a little bit perverted.

In every sense.

But fortunately, this boss can be perverted or neurotic at times.

But most of the time, to his bodyguards and confidants, he was a very rare honest person in the United States.

Kenny has worked in ClA for a long time and has come into contact with a lot of intelligence and people.

He had never seen or heard of any bosses, rich men, or masters.

He would be as kind and generous to his bodyguards, servants, and servants as Milo was.

Apart from anything else, it can be seen from the fact that he is the godfather of his and David's child.

How many people would believe that the heir of a top political family would become the godfather of a child of a lower-class person? You have to know that they are godfather and godson, which is not an ordinary relationship.

For example, if Kenny and David unfortunately passed away.

That as godfather to their children.

Milo even had the obligation to raise their children, and that didn't mean he would just raise them to adulthood.

He also has to give the children enough help according to his conditions!

At the very least, godfathers must provide help when they are in college.

A letter of recommendation is inevitable, and tuition fees should also be helped if possible.

If he fails to do so, his godchildren may even sue him in court, and he will be rejected and hated by both the secular and religious communities.

Especially for religious families like the Blackburn family, the relationship between godsons and godfathers is more important.

Because religion is the foundation of their existence.

But even so, Milo became the godfather of their children.

When they first heard the news, Kenny and David were so excited that they couldn't sleep for more than a week.

It can be said that from the moment of baptism, the descendants of the two officially completed the class leap.

As long as Milo lived, as long as their child could grow up.

Then when the children grow up, their children will no longer be the inferior people of America.

Instead, he can get a ticket to enter the upper class by virtue of his status as the heir of Blackburn/the godson of the head of the family.

As for how high they can climb, that depends on their children's own abilities.

There is also Milo's future development and how much Milo values ​​their children.

But even if Milo doesn't care about it in the future, he still got the admission ticket.

So really, whoever wants Milo dead now is the mortal enemy of both Kenny and David.

As for the other bodyguards, even if they are not as loyal as Kenny and David, they are still much more loyal than any rich man's bodyguards.

One reason is that the compensation Milo gave them was much more than that of others.

Another thing is that bodyguards and lower-ranking people would also think about it.

I thought that since Kenny and David's children were okay, then was their children also possible?

Blackburn's godson.

The value of this title increases as Milo climbs up the ladder.

It is still appreciating.

David and Kenny were very worried and helpless, but they could only watch their boss go back to the room to play with the Sakura girl.

Because they knew they couldn't stop Milo, just as Old Blackburn and Joseph couldn't stop Milo from adopting their children as godsons.

They could only pray to God silently.

Pray that nothing unexpected happens tomorrow and that everything goes well.

The two looked at each other, and David said softly, "The Lord will surely protect our boss."

"Of course. The boss is favored by the Lord, so everything is as it should be!" Kenny replied firmly.

From then on, there was no conversation at the Hilton Hotel in Hong Kong.

Only Takako Tokiwa and the others were whimpering, gentle and obedient.

But when Milo started playing with the Sakura girls again.

In Chiyoda Ward, next to Minato Ward, some people are discussing Milo.

Chiyoda Ward is the core of the core in Tokyo.

Because the Neon Imperial Palace is here.

Therefore, not only all major Japanese companies choose to locate their headquarters here, but also embassies of various countries, the Metropolitan Police Department, the House of Representatives, the Senate, etc. are all in Chiyoda Ward.

This is not only the political and economic center of Japan, but also has many top universities, such as Hitotsubashi University, Sophia University, and Meiji University.

In addition, Akihabara, the most popular anime destination for ordinary people abroad, is also here.

Therefore, Chiyoda Ward has become the area with the highest land prices among the 23 wards of Tokyo, but its population size and population density are unexpectedly low.

At this time, outside the Imperial Palace in Chiyoda Ward, but in Nagatacho, the closest to the Imperial Palace.

In a mansion hidden among lush green trees.

The chairman of the contemporary Hakusuikai, Sumitomo Tomojun, is discussing important matters with Matsushita Masaharu, Tanii Akio, and Sumitomo Corporation Chairman Miyahara Kenji.

In the leisurely sound of bamboo.

"...It's very obvious. From the intelligence and information we have obtained, this is a typical animal that is always in heat."

Sumitomo Tomojun looked at the few people and threw a document on the cutting board in front of him. "This is his medical examination report from the Mayo Clinic. It says he has sexual Y syndrome. I asked someone to find out about it. It does exist. It's unbelievable, but since he is a polygynous person, it makes sense."

Kenji Miyahara, vice chairman of the Shiramizukai of Sumitomo Corporation and the nominal head of the Sumitomo Zaibatsu, bowed slightly, picked up the document and took a look at it.

"What the patriarch said is right. This Milo Blackburn is a typical playboy. But he has a good background and noble blood. He should also have some accomplishments in film and literature."

After putting the documents down, Kenji Miyahara looked at Akio Tani and Masaharu Matsushita beside him and said, "We have already catered to their needs. We just need to negotiate carefully. There is no need to put too much pressure on them."

Akio Tanii and Masaharu Matsushita both nodded in agreement.

One of them is Masaharu Matsushita, the adopted son-in-law of Panasonic founder Konosuke Matsushita.

The so-called son-in-law adopting a son is one of the distinctive cultures of the Japanese.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it means marrying into the wife's family when a large or wealthy family has no male heir.

Use your daughter to find a son-in-law, and then let the son-in-law change his surname so that he can inherit the family name and inheritance.

To use the Japanese’s own words: “You can’t choose your son, but you can choose your son-in-law.”

Masaharu Matsushita's original name was Masaharu Matsudaira. He changed his name to Masaharu Matsushita after marrying the daughter of Konosuke Matsushita.

More than 20 years ago, Shoji Matsushita served as the chairman of the Panasonic Group.

He later retired behind the scenes, but he is still one of the behind-the-scenes controllers of the Panasonic Group.

Akio Tanii is the current chairman of Panasonic Group.

The two are now in the eastern main residence of the Sumitomo Zaibatsu.

And Sumitomo Tomojun is naturally the current patriarch of the Sumitomo Zaibatsu.

Unlike most other chaebols that have their headquarters in Tokyo.

The Sumitomo Zaibatsu has two headquarters, one in Tokyo and the other in Osaka.

So Sumitomo Tomojun spends half of the year in Osaka and the other half in Tokyo.

What they were discussing just now was that Milo Blackburn, chairman of Paladin Media in the United States, came in person to negotiate with Panasonic about the acquisition of MCA Group.

After all, it was a major transaction involving more than 800 billion yen, not to mention that the other party's identity was obviously not ordinary.

Masaharu Matsushita and Akio Tanii were unsure, so they went to the host's house to look for a backbone.

Hearing what Sumitomo Tomojun and Miyahara Kenji said, the two giants of the Panasonic Group breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, the master is right!"

Matsushita Masaharu bowed as he sat, then raised his head and said to Akio Tanii, "Just follow the normal procedure, just like the Canadian last year."

"Hi!" Akio Tani followed suit, sitting cross-legged and bowing.

"alright."

Sumitomo Tomojun said gently: "It's finally a good thing that we can get rid of the disgusting exploitation of the rice-eating animals. Next, let's talk about Mitsui's affairs, and that old turtle Iwasaki..."
