Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era

   Chapter 365 Created a sensation (replenishment for votes)

   After Tao Zhiming woke up, he was speechless when he read the news in the newspaper.

  You are on the rich list, why don't you use the richest man on the cover?

  Ti Yoshiaki Although he looks a little squat, he is more than 20 billion yuan!

   Tao Zhiming frowned and looked at his photo, does this count as a violation of portrait rights? He was never contacted at all.

   looked at Maehara Mina and saw that she shook her head and said, "No one has contacted us, should it be Dentsu?"

   This photo was when we were engaged in a big marriage proposal. After the shooting, I gave a copy to Dentsu.

   "It's really speechless..." Tao Zhiming couldn't help but complain, "They are so arrogant, aren't they afraid that I will trouble them and say they violate my privacy and portrait rights?"

   "I'm taking the liberty." Someone behind him spoke up and asked in English, "Are you the one on the news?"

   Now that he has woken up, the little commotion that has long been secretly spread in the first class cabin will naturally ferment slowly, and finally someone with a more active personality asks.

  Suddenly, several of the other guests in the first-class cabin looked over, holding newspapers in their hands, and reconfirmed their appearance.

Although it is said that these people who fly to Idali from the United States are mostly Caucasians, they are relatively blind to oriental faces, but these few people have obviously discussed this matter with each other just now, and the flight attendant was called over to ask once before. .

  Tao Zhiming didn't answer, but asked in confusion, "Who are you?"

   "Rams Williams." He leaned forward and held out his hand, "Nice to meet you."

   "Hello." Tao Zhiming smiled and said, "It seems that it was suddenly exposed."

   "Amazing." Rams saw him admit it frankly, with a bright smile on his face, "I work at Gallo Winery, this is my business card."

  Tao Zhiming looked at the exaggerated swash characters on the business card, took it over and said, "Thank you, Caroline Winery? I spent a day in California the day before yesterday."

   "Really? Mr. Tao knows about our Chateau Gallo?"

"certainly."

  Tao Zhiming chatted with the manager of the largest wine merchant in the United States, and also casually promised to visit the Jialu family's manor in the future.

   Fortunately, an order for a private jet has been placed. Who would have expected it to be placed on the cover of Forbes?

   A billionaire so young was sitting next to him. Although the other 12 guests in the first class were more self-conscious and did not want to appear too chasing wealth, Tao Zhiming could not help but receive five business cards.

   As for his own business card, he just let Maehara Kumina send an ordinary business card with only her office phone number.

   The main reason is that although there are definitely more rich people in the world than those who have more open channels and it is easier to count their assets, there are not many people on this list after all.

   The number of people with assets of more than 1 billion yuan is naturally the most in the United States, with as many as 44 people. The Neon is close behind with 25 people. In addition to other countries and regions, the total number of people listed in Forbes magazine is only a hundred or so.

   These billions of people around the world are considered to be at the top of wealth. Among such characters, Tao Zhiming is now the youngest one.

   He is only 24 years old, and he has no family background and is purely relying on himself to get in. The topicality is really too big.

  …

  Tereza was already waiting at the airport.

   At this time, she didn't know that the latest issue of Forbes magazine in the US just released Tao Zhiming as the cover character.

   While waiting for Tao Zhiming's flight to land, she communicated with the company.

"The production status and explanations at the shipyard are more important!" Tereza emphasized, "Although Mr. Tao is more inclined to us, he has just come from the United States. Hector Thomson of RIVA is not also Did you come to Idari last night? We went to Lake Como right away. Mr. Tao must have visited at the same time. With the order amount, even if RIVA is asked to set up a large yacht assembly plant by the sea, they may be willing. In short, nothing can go wrong and fail at this step."

She hung up the phone to check the time, and then continued to make another call: "Paul, the board of directors should have made a decision, right? The situation I learned from Neon has been clearly stated in the report. Tao Mr. wants to take some shares, not only to ensure that we have sufficient funds to complete his yacht on time, but also to ensure that future yacht procurement needs can be guaranteed on the production plan. For God's sake, he does not interfere with our business. , only 10% of the shares! Can't we make an exception for this first real super yacht? The order of nearly 200 million yuan!"

  Azimut's president Paul Vitali said hesitantly: "We'll have to wait until he arrives. Let's talk to him again. The considerations you mentioned can be guaranteed in other ways."

   "The bottom line, dear Paul, the bottom line!" Teresa said helplessly, "Can't this word make the people on the board clear about his determination? When he arrives at the company, I'm afraid that's the first question!"

   "...Let's talk when he arrives."

   "It doesn't matter, I've tried my best. What about the evening dinner? Are both Bell Helicopter's Bourne Director and Philips' Key Holder in Turin?"

   "...It's already here, why did he ask you to invite people from Philips Semiconductors to come over?"

   "You've already asked, and I don't know!" Tereza looked at the time, "The flight will arrive soon, and I see Hector of RIVA."

   "Using the relationship you established with him, you must find a way to follow him to RIVA first!"

"I know!"

  Teresa hung up the phone, but she was not nervous. Tao Zhiming will go to Lake Como where RIVA headquarters is located today.

   Anyway, he already knew that Tao Zhiming and RIVA were talking about all acquisitions.

   And she paid more attention to the dinner arrangement this evening, because that night, Tao Zhiming was more concerned about the presence of European fashion industry and luxury goods dealers.

   She made phone calls, and although some seemed arrogant and dismissive of Asians from Neon, Tereza invited them again with Azimut's background.

"Mr. Chio, no matter how busy you are tonight, please make sure to make time to come to our Azimut Manor in Turin. Although we haven't finalized the order, we can tell you now. The other party is for a preliminary ship. The price is determined to be a super yacht of 178 million yuan. I am shocked by his energy in Tokyo. You Gucci also have a store in Tokyo, don’t you want to establish a friendship with Mr. Tao?”

   "178 million yuan?" Chio Gucci's voice was no longer lazy, "Am I right?"

"Please keep it a secret for now. We have already finished the design of the yacht, and he is the only one left to come to Idali to inspect and confirm our manufacturing capabilities. If this order is finally obtained by us, there is a large demand for luxury goods on super yachts. What do you think, Mr. Chio?"

   "...Betty Betty, dear Betty...this is shocking news. Rest assured, I'll be there tonight with one of our new signings!"

"Thank you!"

  Teresa continued to call again: "Erica, have you left? Your "ELLE" is very concerned by our distinguished guests, especially the media who need to be invited to Tokyo to participate in the fashion festival..."

   Tao Zhiming's people haven't arrived yet, and the people who organized and invited from Azimu's side are already thinking about what to do tonight in various emotions.

   When Tereza finished hanging up the phone, she was about to go over to chat with Hector, but saw Hector holding a mobile phone with a face full of disbelief: "What did you say? Did you read it right?"

Tereza didn't know what they were talking about, but the receiver of the mobile phone was not well insulated, and the voice on the other side was quite loud: "That's right! Didn't we have dinner together at noon that day? I'm sure my eyes didn't recognize the wrong person. Mr. Hector, can you tell Mr. Tao that our boss asked me to go to Tokyo with me. Can I ask him to arrange an exclusive interview for us?"

   "...Wait, are you really sure that he's on the cover of Forbes?"

"I can fax it to you! It is said that 1 billion yuan is only the most conservative estimate. From the real estate price he has already mastered in Neon, it is more than 1 billion yuan! The most expensive club in the 1 billion yuan club Young members?"

   "I actually knew he had so much money... But I didn't expect to use him for the cover. He should be out soon, I'll ask him what you said later."

   "I have an exclusive interview in Tokyo, please!"

   "...I'll ask first."

   Hector hung up the phone and saw that Barron Berger was sluggish, while Tereza was not surprised.

It's just that if what Hector said is true, the cover of "Forbes", the youngest member of the 1 billion yuan club, this news should make people who are reluctant to come to meet an oriental guy they have never met. Change your mind?

   "Miss Teresa, you actually came too, didn't he already choose us?"

  Teresa just smiled, she didn't know how the negotiations between Tao Zhiming and Riva were going, and then asked, "Who is this?"

   "Barron Berger of KPMG."

   "Hello, Theresa Beatty from Azimut Beatty Yachts."

  Barron Berger's heart moved, it was also a yacht, didn't that Mr. Tao just want to buy a yacht yard?

   The three of them were polite and polite, and none of them revealed anything that should not be said.

   At this time, I finally saw Tao Zhiming's figure not far away.

   Hector raised his hand first: "Here, here!"

  Tao Zhiming wore the sunglasses he just bought at the airport, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

   Beside him, the number of people seemed to have increased, and some people continued to talk to him earnestly.

   I saw him waving his hand here, then said a few words to the strangers beside him, shook hands and then quickened his pace.

"Miss Tereza, why are you here? Don't you just go to Turin before the dinner?" Tao Zhiming said with a smile, "I will go to RIVA first, and then Mr. Hector will take me to Turin. Spiritual."

  Teresa said with a smile, "Since Mr. Tao has to visit both sides, why don't I accompany Mr. Tao to visit RIVA's shipyard today, and tomorrow, let someone from RIVA accompany Mr. Tao to visit our Azimu Betty, how about that?"

  Tao Zhiming smiled happily: "Very good, let's arrange it like this. Mr. Hector, this is very good."

   Hector had already signed an agreement of intent with him in Los Angeles, and didn’t care much about the little details. And he had met Tao Yaren before, and he knew something else.

   Going to RIVA to investigate, probably just to go through a cutscene and put pressure on Azimut Betty.

   After all, the formal acquisition process, KPMG has also arranged a special team to audit the assets.

"The car is ready. From here to the headquarters of our RIVA yacht, there is still time on the way." Hector and he walked forward, but couldn't help teasing, "Mr. Tao, a friend from the United States called Say you just got on the cover of Forbes. Now I don't have to keep it a secret, you're famous!"

  The smile on Tao Zhiming's face froze, and he asked helplessly: "Idali knew so soon? I only saw the newspaper on the plane..."

   "Did you bring the newspaper?"

Tao Zhiming sighed, took out the newspaper from the bag of the former original Jiu Mina, and then asked Barron Berg: "Mr. Barron, should you still have a cooperative law firm? In this case, reporting my appearance and assets like this should be held accountable for violating privacy and portrait rights, right?"

  Barron Berg was stunned: "Mr. Tao...Want to pursue Forbes magazine?"

  Isn't this the best way to raise awareness? Isn't this guy buying the latest private jet and buying Blockbuster in the US for fame?

"I think about it a bit. The main question is that I'm not the richest man, why are you posting my photo, and it's such an offensive photo!" Tao Zhiming gritted his teeth and said, "I must investigate this matter when I look back, it must be have to be investigated."

   It's a bit hard for him to imagine how Neon's media will react when they know about the news based on how much Neon is paying attention to what's happening in the United States.

   It doesn't feel good to be on the cusp of the storm, and I don't know if it will cause other problems. Although as long as he does things on Neon's side, he will give up petty profits in order not to cause trouble, and there will be no mistakes in taxation. However, there are many people who are popular.

  The key question is, who exposed your asset information?

  Forbes expanded the scope of the rich list to the whole world for the first time today. They should not have so many sources of information in Neon, and Neon’s asset data is more hidden.

   Knowing that his net worth may be on the scale of 1 billion yuan, it is only the major financial groups, as well as a few people in Tokyo Metropolitan Government and Hokkaido.

   Fortunately, what has been exposed now is only a vague expression such as "more than 1 billion yuan", and has not been classified as "more than 2 billion yuan".

  Tao Zhiming got into the car from the airport to the RIVA Yachting Headquarters on Lake Como, and the result was still the same as in the first class cabin.

   Only this time the people to deal with are Hector and KPMG.

A friend in the fashion media industry in the United States told him that he wanted to raise the standard and arranged for the editor-in-chief to come over, and jokingly asked him if he wanted to return to the United States and release the news of his acquisition of a luxury yacht brand, can he accept it in his light? Media interviews and his stories.

   One was eager to introduce Tao Zhiming's financial consulting business of personal assets, and also expressed whether he could establish a relationship with many auction houses, charities and various niche distinguished customer service organizations.

  Tao Zhiming is a little convinced. After deciding to buy a private jet last time, hasn't he temporarily rejected these?

Barron Berg said sternly: "Mr. Tao, you are so young, I am afraid that after today you will continue to receive invitations from celebrities from all over the world to participate in various activities. Art, charity, private clubs, these are all It's a normal conversation. You really need it, and it's not just because I want to sign a service contract with you."

  Tao Zhiming waved his hand: "Wait for me to finish the things in front of me first. Anyway, you will go to Tokyo then."

  Tereza heard a smile on her face.

   It seems that his acquisition of RIVA has been negotiated. Then, if Azimut doesn't accept his terms, Tereza will quit her job at Azimut and persuade the Betty family to quit Azimut completely and join RIVA.

  Whether Azimut accepts his terms or not, he will be responsible for that super yacht, organize the venue and team, and help him build it.

   The world's youngest member of the 1 billion yuan club has just been exposed, and if the news of spending nearly 200 million yuan to build a super yacht is released immediately, I am afraid it will cause a sensation again, right?

   Yesterday, there was too much to do, so I made up for the one I owe today. Ask for a monthly pass!
