Chapter 46: The Realm of Pretending



The city lights were on.

Naoto Nagano pretended to look serious and listened to the statistical reports made by his subordinates.

"The number of customers with assets exceeding 1 billion yen is 5,400 and 61. Based on the current gold price of $400 per ounce, a 50-gram gold Fuka costs about $5 million."

"What about Toho Entertainment?"

"Ms. Sawaguchi Yasuko happens to be available. Toho Entertainment has offered 10 million yen. We can prepare it anytime."

Ten million yen.

It was only about $70,000.

This amount of money is not even a fraction of what Angola Beibi paid, right?! Igarashi Koori was very good at reading people's expressions. When she saw that Nagano Manao seemed puzzled, she immediately said, "Our company's responsibility is to guarantee retirement benefits for all Japanese people, so Toho Entertainment is very eager to cooperate with us. This is a good opportunity for Toho Entertainment and Ms. Sawaguchi Yasuko to showcase their image."

Nagano nodded: "So how much is the total budget?"

"According to our cooperation with Hyogo Bank, we asked them to make the blessing cards. The usual practice is to charge them a 20% processing fee. After calculation, plus some small gifts, packaging, and radio promotion, the investment will be about 1.2 billion."

This means that the remaining money is all for entertaining customers! Nagano Nao's heart was pounding.

He knew about entertainment expenses. The employees of the sales and planning departments of Japan Life Insurance had about $200,000 in client entertainment expenses every year.

At the section manager level, there are $500,000 in client entertainment expenses each year.

This money is mainly used to find big customers to go to brothels to have fun, eat and drink, etc. In this case, usually you can negotiate with the consumption place, issue more invoices and get a kickback of about 50%.

However, activities held by the company will incur additional entertainment expenses. As the project leader, you have the power to decide where to entertain clients.

Oh shit!

If I find a place to negotiate, wouldn't it be easy for me to pocket a million or two dollars?

Eat, drink, go to a brothel and have fun, and you can actually make money!

Love it!

Love it!

I'm a little drunk!

Maybe? No, I want to be the most powerful man in the empire, how can I care about such a small amount of money!

With this thought in mind, Nagano Nao thought about it and came to the minister's office.

It's already eight o'clock.

According to the company's working hours, everyone should have left work long ago.

However, at this time, the lights in the minister's office were still on, and Yuan Guangrong seemed to be reviewing something.

After hearing the knock on the door, he looked up and said, "It's Nagano-kun! It's already eight o'clock, why haven't you finished get off work yet?"

"Minister, you are so busy and you are still working. If Nagano doesn't work harder, how can you achieve the small goal of buying the United States under the leadership of the Minister?"

Nagano Naoio said seriously.

I was vomiting in my heart, feeling that such words = flattery were so hypocritical and disgusting.

But now he has come to understand that a company like Nippon Life Insurance is more like a civil service system than a business.

Here, flattery is more effective than work ability.

really.

Yuan Guangrong seemed to benefit a lot, especially when he heard about the small goal of buying the United States. His slightly tired spirit was lifted.

He has always felt that the goal of buying the United States is a long and arduous journey, and he has been working hard for it, but when he speaks out this huge task of buying the United States, he always feels a little bit sorry for the strength of Japan.

Small goals, just sound very comfortable.

It not only reflects the strength of Japan's economy as the world's number one, but also shows its determination to move forward.

Looking at Nagano Nao's energetic eyes, Yuan Guangrong compared him with Guan Zhixi's gang in his mind.

He is handsome and seems very brave and ambitious.

In comparison, those guys only know how to fight for power. Perhaps only young people like Nagano can realize their wish to defeat the United States, their old enemy!

"Thank you for your hard work, Nagano-kun! You must be very tired after working so late!"

"Thank you for your understanding. I was a little tired at first, but seeing you still working despite your busy schedule, I immediately became motivated."

"I see. You must take good care of yourself!"

"Thank you for your concern, sir."

"Is there something you want to see me so late?"

"Yes, this is the next project plan, please take a look at it, sir."

Looking at the plan handed over by Nagano Nao with both hands, Yuan Guangrong stood up and took it. He was casual at first, but became excited as he looked at it.

"Nagano-kun, this plan is really great! You are just an economics major, how did you come up with such a great marketing plan?"

"Speaking of which, it is thanks to this period of recuperation at home that Nagano read a lot of books on philosophy."

"What kind of book could make Nagano-kun come up with such a fantastic idea?"

Ah! I was just saying it casually, why did you take it seriously? Nagano Nao was embarrassed for a moment and didn't know how to start.

This kind of stuff that uses the celebrity effect to bombard the radio is not really that sophisticated.

It's nothing more than watching too many advertisements and absorbing the essence of them.

But obviously, this kind of routine with a script-killing effect is quite new in Japan. At least so far, major companies will not invite customers to come in order to be polite when attracting customers.

"Is it inconvenient for you to talk about it, Nagano-kun?" Minamoto Mitsuei saw that Nagano Nao seemed to be in trouble, so he frowned slightly and asked.

Nao Nao quickly said, "No, it's just that the book Nagano reads has nothing to do with marketing on the surface."

It has nothing to do with marketing, but it can make people come up with such a wonderful marketing plan?

Yuan Guangrong became even more curious.

"What book is that?"

"It's mainly ancient books like Tao Te Ching, The Art of War and I Ching."

“.”

Yuan Guangrong was obviously stunned for a moment.

In fact, he also read The Art of War when he was in college.

It’s just that this kind of book seems to be more suitable for business layout and market competition, that is to say, in psychology it is because of the Tao Te Ching or the Book of Changes.

I was careless! I can't understand this book at all! With such embarrassment, Minamoto Mitsuyoshi wisely changed the subject and said, "So that's how it is. No wonder Nagano-kun can become a talent valued by the president at such a young age. Then do your best!"

"Thank you for your support!"

that's all.

Yuan Guangrong stamped his seal and handed over the plan.

Nagano Naoio lowered his head, held back his laughter, bowed, and backed out of the minister's office.

When there was no one around, the guy finally couldn't help laughing.

Yuan Guangrong’s reaction just now was really interesting.

Come to think of it, I don’t understand it myself! (End of this chapter)
