Chapter 122 Mercedes Climbs the Tree
Tsuboi Chinatsu didn’t notice anyone. She was admiring Gao Jialin’s house with great interest. “Wow, what a great house! It has both historical charm and unique decoration. It’s worthy of Sensei’s status! But the area is not big enough. It would be better if the garden outside was bigger. It would be better if there was a swimming pool. Then I can swim with Sensei when I come here later!”
"It's impossible to build a large courtyard like the one in the upper-class family in Japan in Shanghai now, but as for a swimming pool, it seems that I can experience it in Tokyo?" Gao Jialin instantly thought of the most famous swimming pool in the world, but he didn't know if it had been built now.
"Sensei can definitely buy a piece of land in Tokyo and build a big yard now." Chinatsu Tsuboi knew Gao Jialin's income. The best-selling "Showa American Tale" made him the highest-earning writer in Japan last year, and the same was true in the literary and art circles.
"I haven't thought about staying in Japan for a long time, but I can consider buying a yard, just not now." Gao Jialin shook his head. Now is the time when Japanese real estate is booming. It is not cost-effective to buy land. It is better to wait for the collapse in the future and then buy at the bottom.
"Sensei is so heartless. Don't you even want to deceive me?" As soon as she entered the room, Tsuboi Chinatsu stuck close to Gao Jialin.
Gao Jialin couldn't help it. At the age of twenty, how could he get up in the morning like Zhang Sanfeng? What's more, there was such a temptation of an office lady? He immediately turned on the phonograph and pushed Chinatsu Tsuboi down on the sofa to get busy. After the performance of the Ninth Symphony, Gao Jialin and Chinatsu Tsuboi were also done. She considerately helped Gao Jialin clean up, and the two of them chatted on the sofa, "If you have savings, you can buy some houses or land and sell them in a few years, or give the money to me and I can help you increase the value, so that you can be financially free soon."
Gao Jialin was not a stingy person. He was very satisfied with Chinatsu Tsuboi's service, so he generously gave her some benefits.
This order must not be reversed. When a man gives a woman a benefit, it should be because she does something that makes him happy, rather than spending money to make her happy.
"Is it really possible? The account manager of Nomura Securities has praised you for your sharp vision many times. Your previous investment has multiplied several times." Tsuboi Chinatsu asked while drawing circles on Gao Jialin's chest with her fingers.
"Chixia-chan is so well behaved, you deserve a reward."
"I still prefer rewards like Sensei's." Tsuboi Chinatsu said as she slid down.
They were busy until around four in the afternoon before they came out of the room. To be honest, neither of them had a completely enjoyable time, but time did not allow it. If they did not go back, the school would be worried.
When she came out, Tsuboi Chinatsu complained, "Sensei, I'm so unhappy when I think about sleeping alone tonight."
"It will be fine in a few days. There will be plenty of opportunities when you get to Neon." Gao Jialin rubbed her head and helped her fix her messy hair.
Receiving the award is a great thing, and the relevant departments fully support it. They helped Gao Jialin complete the formalities as quickly as possible, and then Gao Jialin and Chinatsu Tsuboi boarded a plane from Hongqiao Airport and flew to Japan.
There was no translator accompanying them this time because Chinatsu Tsuboi knew Chinese, and Gao Jialin had passed the test and could enjoy a certain degree of freedom in foreign affairs activities.
However, when the plane landed at Haneda Airport, he met the cultural counselor of the embassy. The counselor and several staff members greeted him at the airport. There were also two reporters from Xinhua News Agency, who used cameras to record the scene of Gao Jialin and the counselor shaking hands.
"Student Gao Jialin, you have brought honor to our country this time. You are welcome to come to Tokyo, and you are also welcome to visit us." The cultural counselor took Gao Jialin's hand and shook it vigorously.
The main duties of the cultural counselor are to assist the director in cultural work, including reporting on the cultural situation of the host country to the cultural authorities of his own country, developing cultural relations between the two countries, and arranging mutual exchanges between cultural figures of the two countries.
Thanks to the huge popularity of "Showa American Story" in Japan, the counselor's work has been carried out much more smoothly and he has easily achieved many eye-catching political achievements. Now he is naturally happy to see Gao Jialin.
"I am grateful for the country's training. If it hadn't given me the opportunity to exercise, how could I have achieved what I have now?" First of all, I have to thank the country. This is a must. "Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to pick me up. I am really flattered."
After some pleasantries, both parties felt very comfortable. Tokuma Shoten also sent a lot of people to meet Gao Jialin and arranged a grand welcoming dinner for him. The counselor did not want to delay Gao Jialin's visit, so he made an appointment with him to visit the embassy the day after tomorrow and then left.
Gao Jialin got on the Tokuma Bookstore car, which was still the same extended Mercedes-Benz as last time. Sitting on the comfortable leather chair, Gao Jialin couldn't help but praise, "Mercedes-Benz is great."
"Eh? Sensei, what do you think is good about Mercedes-Benz?" asked Chinatsu Tsuboi while getting a drink for Gao Jialin from the small refrigerator.
"Other cars can only go up the mountain, but Mercedes-Benz can climb trees!" Gao Jialin joked.
Unfortunately, "Initial D" was not serialized until 1995, and Chinatsu Tsuboi obviously didn't understand the joke and was left completely confused.
Soon the Mercedes arrived at the venue of the dinner. Gao Jialin and Tokuma Yasukai cut the cake with the words "12 million copies" written on it. Then everyone at the scene applauded, and the applause lasted for a full five minutes before it stopped.
Japan now has a total population of 120 million, and almost one in ten people has bought "Showa American Tale". It is no exaggeration to say that every household has a copy.
This brought great prestige to Tokuma Shoten, causing their stock prices to soar, and also brought Gao Jialin considerable income. The royalties alone exceeded 2.5 billion yen, equivalent to more than 20 million US dollars, which is approximately equal to 1% of China's foreign exchange reserves.
If we take into account various copyright transfer incomes and gains from the financial market, and make a ranking of the country's richest people, Gao Jialin is definitely the undisputed richest man.
The grand dinner lasted until nine o'clock in the evening. The others either went home or went to Ginza for the second half. Gao Jialin declined their invitation on the grounds of being tired from the journey and prepared to go back to the hotel to rest.
When he got in the car, he found that the person sitting in the driver's seat had become a female driver, who was in her early twenties. She was wearing a dark green driver's uniform, breeches, and lace-up boots. With her graceful figure, she was extremely seductive.
"Sensei, Juri-chan is my junior, and she admires Sensei very much!" Tsuboi Chinatsu introduced.
Hey, do I really have to climb a tree tonight?
The next chapter will be a little later, I will try to recover the time as soon as possible.
