"The evolution of any group must have natural enemies."

"Only a complete food chain can better promote the growth and evolution of a group."

"Don't you even understand such a simple truth that we are born in hardship and die in comfort?"

“When life becomes very comfortable and stress-free, people will inevitably lose their fighting spirit like salted fish.”

"Please imagine what this country will be like in the future without the pressure of survival!"

"Young people who are at a working age stay at home 365 days a year."

"Because there is no pressure to survive, all kinds of degeneration have occurred. The only fun every day is eating, sleeping and playing doudou."

"When there is pressure to survive, men and women will stick together to keep warm and form families for the sake of survival. Once such pressure disappears, the old perverts may degenerate into a sexless group and lose interest in women."

"What a horrible world that would be!"

"Humans have lost interest in humans and are obsessed with the second dimension all day long!"

"Such a country will be destroyed sooner or later!"

Nagano Nao was so drunk that his face turned red and he was madly complaining about the future Japanese script.

Iue Ryouta didn't buy into this reason, and cursed with disdain and hatred: "What's wrong with this kind of life?"

"Isn't it that the reason why humans are superior to animals is that they are always pursuing a better life instead of surviving under the law of the jungle of the food chain?"

"Besides, Mr. Straight Man, you sound so righteous, so why did you yourself, when you were working and studying, always long for the life you are now swearing about?"

"You've forgotten, straight man, that you finished your part-time job at a convenience store on the beach, got paid 5,000 yen, and cursed the capitalists for making life so difficult now."

Did I ever say that?

Why don't I remember it! ! Nagano stuck out his tongue and said with a look of certainty: "Ryouta, your logic is very strange! Peerless dragons like you and me need to work hard every day, but those useless common people will become salted fish because of this. Don't you think this is very problematic?"

"What's the problem? Is there something wrong with your logic? If a dragon enjoys the status and treatment of the upper class, how can it be qualified to get such a noble status and treatment if it does not work hard? And the common people are already in the status of salted fish, why should they work hard?"

"Hey, hey! Can you please be reasonable? A peerless fierce dragon works hard, but he has to use his blood and sweat to feed a bunch of useless people. Don't you think it's weird?"

"You are the weird one! If you don't take care of the salted fish, won't the dragon starve to death sooner or later? So you are just taking care of it for your own status. Why do you say it like a favor? You are not Vietnamese, are you? Even Koreans are not as shameless as you!"

What kind of logic is this?

Nagano Nao was quickly punched.

However, Kenichi Sato, who had been drinking by himself, had seen through everything with his calm eyes.

"Although it is said that a dragon slayer will definitely turn into an evil dragon when he grows up! It's just that your ideological values ​​are a bit too twisted, straight man!"

"distortion?"

"Isn't this twisted? It's a different era now, but we still have the decadent ideas from the shogunate era!"

The so-called decadent ideas of the shogunate era.

In a general sense, it means the rule of the samurai shogunate.

During the hundreds of years of shogunate rule, the most widely known saying was: Heaven and earth are unkind and treat all things as straw dogs; sages are unkind and treat the people as straw dogs!

That's right.

It is a famous saying from the Chinese Tao Te Ching.

As a good student of the Han Dynasty, Japan can be said to be yearning for Han culture. Therefore, Taoism, Confucianism and Buddhism cultures also run through Japan's documented historical culture.

As a successful person who created an era in history, Tokugawa Ieyasu's political thoughts are naturally extraordinary.

It’s just that the Tokugawa family’s strategy for governing the country, throughout his entire policy, was permeated with a core idea - the “Five Arts for Governing the People”.

This was the method of governing the country and the people that Wei Yang suggested to Duke Xiao of Qin.

This set of "Five Techniques for Governing the People" was recorded in "The Book of Lord Shang": When good people are used to govern evil people, the country will be weakened and in chaos; when evil people are used to govern good people, the country will be strong.

Shang Yang's five methods of controlling the people include: unifying the people, weakening the people, exhausting the people, humiliating the people, and impoverishing the people. This is a set of methods that emperors in later generations are willing to read and learn.

Tokugawa Ieyasu and even later military rulers all implemented the governance strategies in The Book of Lord Shang.

Just like the Tokugawa family’s famous saying about governing the country: “Keeping the lower classes half-dead is the secret of politics.”

But times are progressing after all.

The cultural system of Japan after the Meiji era and during the Shogunate era underwent earth-shaking changes.

Today, it is an ideological question of whether the chicken or the egg came first.

Naoto Nagano's inherent thinking is still that corporate survival is the first priority, and making money is the driving force and uniqueness of the company's existence.

But this guy obviously overlooked one problem.

The core rule of commercial power means that status is responsibility, so which came first, the chicken or the egg? This is completely different from Nagano Nao's inherent ideological values.

Suddenly I realized.

Nagano Nao suddenly realized.

There is indeed something wrong with my logic.

He seemed to be thinking about something.

Iue Ryouta took a sip of his wine and said, "You speak so righteously, but why are you unwilling to experience the pressure of survival?!"

"It must be because Ikeda has instilled something strange into this guy!"

"Idiot! If anyone wants to force her to drink, I should do it for her, okay?" Nagano Nao rolled his eyes and said in confusion, "I'm just complaining about the public debt showdown. After all, according to the current overall strategy, if we want to promote the horizontal expansion of the tertiary industry, it is inevitable that interest rates will tend to fall. There are already relevant window policies for interest-free and subsidized loans to support it. In this way, if we buy 2 trillion public bonds every year, and the benchmark interest rate drops by one point, we will lose tens of billions!"

"No wonder you're so resentful!"

"But please think about it, if the common people are gone, what is the point of all this money?"

"Idiot! How could I not understand such a simple truth? So I'm not resentful! It's just that it feels weird to think that I have to support a bunch of useless monsters after working hard to make money."

“.”

Nagano Nao cursed.

He asked the waiter to pay the bill and staggered out of the bar.

Kenichi Sato and Ryouta Iue looked at each other and felt a little puzzled.

These two guys would never have thought that Nagano Nao was just unhappy that he was working hard to make money but had to support so many Japanese who were lying around.

It's just that the head follows the butt. As a Japanese soldier, if you want to maintain your status, you must also feed those guys who will become useless otakus.

A new day is coming.

According to the informal escort fleet policy of the financial circles and the Ministry of Finance.

As a financial institution in the Kansai region, Naoto Nagano had to ask people to register in advance to purchase 100 billion yen of three-year government bonds.

What's disgusting is.

I received the central bank's interest rate policy that afternoon. Starting from the 1st of next month, the Bank of Japan BP rate will drop by 25 basis points.

As elites in the financial industry, even if you don’t cheat, you know that interest rate policies of raising and lowering interest rates have a strong trend.

The Bank of Japan's interest rate cut means that interest rates will gradually decline in the future.

In this way, the government bond settlement and subsidy rates will certainly decline, which means that every purchase of a government bond will result in a loss.

That's the disgusting thing.

Such a large-scale national debt package is a policy of apportionment guidance.

Even if you lose money, you have to continue financing purchases.

Otherwise, if there is insufficient liquidity in the current account and there is a problem with the payment of pensions, his job as president will be over.

Take a look at the price fluctuations of foreign exchange in the spot market.

Because of the Bank of Japan's interest rate cut, the yen-dollar exchange rate fell from 90:1 to 90.58:1 at the opening of the morning session. But in the afternoon, as major financial institutions sent in funds to buy government bonds, the exchange rate rose to 89.8:1.

Obviously.

The cabinet's plan to keep prices in check has been successful; for a country that relies heavily on imports, a stronger exchange rate would mean a depreciation in the value of oil and other commodities.

In this way, the current inflation situation in the domestic economy can be suppressed.

But even so, the White Paper on Overseas Strategic Investment means that capital outflows will be in the trillions.

Logically speaking, a large-scale depreciation of the yen is also inevitable.

However, according to the script I have seen, the yen still has a long way to go before it can appreciate, and 89 is far from reaching its peak.

It doesn't make sense!

At this time.

Kurata Himiri knocked on the door and walked in and said, "Mr. President, Mr. Morita wants to invite you to dinner tonight. Do you have time?"

As the founder and chairman of Sony, Naoio Nagano certainly knew the name of Akio Morita.

And now, Akio Morita suddenly asked him to have dinner with him, which must be because of Sony's external strategic investment plan.

No hesitation.

Nagano Nao said: "No problem, I'll ask you to arrange the time, Afei."

"I have an event tonight. Tomorrow at noon, there will be a promotional event in Shangjing District for you to host. You will have a free time tomorrow night. Do you have any other private matters?"

“I don’t think so!”

"Then arrange it for tomorrow night?"

Kurata Himiri bowed and left.

Even though she is one of Nagano Nao's closest people, she has always been very sensible in the company and would not act like a spoiled brat in situations where she is the center of attention.

Nagano Nao didn't care about this matter. After thinking about the activities in the evening, he picked up the phone and called the heads of the sales department and the public relations department.

"grown ups!"

As soon as the two ministers arrived, they bowed together.

Nagano Nao asked casually, "How are the preparations for the event going?"

"Mr. Takahashi's agent has already agreed to tonight's event, and Toho will also arrange for Ms. Nakamori Naka to attend."

Speaking of.

A relevant account sheet was handed over.

It is about the specific cost of this promotional campaign.

After all, there was a sudden shortage of 100 billion yuan in working capital. According to the life insurance business strategy, these funds still had to be sold to other customers.

However, the collapse of the real estate bubble and the halving of the financial asset bubble have led to a shortage of liquidity in the market.

Therefore, if you want to sell financial management, necessary publicity is essential.

As a popular male actor, Takahashi Yifeng has a certain popularity and can attract some wealthy women.

As the original singer, Akina Nakamori can also attract some lustful rich men.

Whether it is men or women, using the temptation of sex is always the magic weapon to win in business.

Nagano Nao took the account.

Just glanced at it casually.

It was discovered that the expenses for artists amounted to 50 million yen. What's even more outrageous is that Takahashi Yifeng alone received 40 million yen, while Nakamori Akina only received 10 million yen.

Nagano immediately frowned: "Why is there such a big difference in price between Miss Nakamori and this guy?"

"Well, because Dongbao gave us a friendly price! So."

So this guy doesn't give me face? "Zhengshi Agency, what's its background?"

"It is the number one private equity investment brokerage firm in the universe."

"What?"

"That's the trading genius I mentioned to you last time. He made a fortune by shorting the Nikkei."

"That Yasuda Kogoro?"

"Ha Yi."

"I see. I'm very interested in this guy. If there's a chance tonight, please help me make an appointment with him for a chat."

"Your Excellency must have been tempted by this! But this guy is really amazing. I heard that he doesn't have any background, but he accurately escaped the peak of the stock market and made more than 6 billion by short selling. If he can join the company, he will definitely make the company's strength even stronger."

"That's right, contact this guy and ask him if he is interested in working for us."

"Ha Yi."

soon.

It's seven o'clock.

According to the time, Nagano Nao changed his clothes and came to Kamigyo Ward.

The Japanese Ikiyasu Wealth Salon was held at a hotel on the Kamogawa to Noguchi route.

The top floor was temporarily designed as a banquet hall. A glass lamp was hung in the center of the living room, refracting bright yellow light that shone on the bright yellow floor, exuding an atmosphere full of money.

Nao Nagano walked to the guest seat under the guidance of a staff member from the public relations department.

Although he also has to attend such occasions, he is mainly there to go through the motions. If there are any important figures present, just greeting them would be considered as giving them some face.

"Sir! That's Yasuda Kogoro."

Nagano Nao looked in the direction of the sight and saw a bald guy in his forties, wearing glasses and looking a bit strange.

Stand up.

He straightened his suit.

Nagano Nao was ready to go over and test this guy's strength.

After all, talent is the basis for guaranteeing business rights. If one is truly talented, he must be used for his own benefit.

Walked a few steps.

Nagano Nao couldn't help but slow down his pace.

A handsome guy in a suit was testing the microphone backstage. Kogoro Yasuda saw him and walked over with a lewd look on his face.

The two seemed familiar with each other.

Kogoro Yasuda went up and hugged the guy who was testing the microphone.

Nagano Nao's expression became quite strange.

Because the guy who interviewed later was the male actor Takahashi Yifeng who was invited this time.

It's just that he seems to have a very close relationship with Yasuda Kogoro. As soon as Yasuda Kogoro went over, he took Takahashi's hand and half-hugged him, with a very obscene look on his face.

I feel like I'm perverted enough.

But seeing this situation, the creepy guess in my heart still makes me feel sick.

Nagano Nao turned around, found a place, and took a drink to calm himself down.

Just at this moment.

A pleasant female voice called out from behind with surprise: "Nagano-kun! You're here too!!"

Look up.

A pair of charming eyes, with a surprised smile, looked at him.

With a melancholy temperament, a plain white gauze skirt, and arms as slender as broken lotus roots, who else could it be but the hiking singer Akina Nakamori.

"It's Ms. Nakamori, thank you very much for coming to support us this time!" Nagano Nao said politely, giving enough face to this original singer.

Akina Nakamori looked a little nervous, but there was gratitude and joy in her eyes.

Ever since she went back to Hawaii last time, she suddenly had a lot more resources.

Even the president would specially arrange for her to attend some events, but she was not harassed or hinted at by her superiors as usual.

Having been in the entertainment industry for so long, how could she not understand that it was because of this manly-looking man in front of her that she was being given special attention by the company.

Bow +1.

"Nagano-kun, you are so polite! It is an honor for Nakagami to be able to participate in the activities of Daiichi Honseibo! If I really want to say something, I should thank you for your concern for me?"

"Take care? Miss Nakamori, you only took 10 million as a reward, and I still feel a little guilty about it! You don't have to be so polite."

Nagano Nao said politely.

Nakamori Naka was stunned for a moment and realized that the other party knew nothing.

And the only reason he received such care from the company was because those people from Toho were secretly trying to please this big shot!

suddenly.

A very handsome man walked over.

It was Takahashi Yifeng who was testing the microphone backstage just now. When he found that Nakamori Nakagawa was also there, he walked over, showed a chic smile, and said, "Nana! I'm not going to work with you this time!"

See it's this guy.

Nagano Nao immediately took two steps back and kept his distance from him.

Nakamori Meicai didn't notice anything wrong, so he bowed and said, "Takahashi-kun guessed it right! If there are any shortcomings in the following Meicai, please forgive me!"

"How could that be! With your singing voice, Nana, you will definitely conquer the whole audience!"

Takahashi said.

By using his body to block the way, he naturally pushed Nagano Nao to the side.

She was talking to Akina Nakamori with fiery eyes, and any man could understand her purpose from her lustful look.

Oh shit!

Is this pretty boy a three-way man?

Nagano felt a chill and quickly stepped back and said, "Ms. Nakamori, let's go over there and have a drink!"

"You are so rude! Can't you see I'm catching up with Cai Cai?"

"You talking to me?"

"If it's not you, could it be a ghost? Please move away! It's very rude to interrupt others when they are talking!"

Nagano Naoko looked strange: "You are so arrogant! Don't you know who I am?"

Gao Qiaoyifeng glanced at the scar on Nagano's face, thinking that this guy was just a security guard: "Shouldn't I be the one asking you this? Don't you know who I am? As a security guard, please fulfill your duties!"
