Tokyo bubble life

New York, Naoki Nagayama has been here several times.

This time, he called the apartment management company in advance and asked them to clean up the house he bought in New York so that he could settle down.

".Sure enough, the house can't be empty for a long time!"

Naoki Nagayama inspected the apartment he bought a few years ago. Even though he had sent someone to clean it, he still had a special feeling, that is, it lacked popularity~

It is said that if a house is empty for a long time, some strange things will breed

With this idea in mind, Naoki Nagayama checked it out before sitting on the sofa. The retro furniture is still very beautiful, and there is Central Park outside the window.

At least in terms of the location, it is very superior~

"Dinglingling~"

Just when Naoki Nagayama was resting, the phone in the apartment rang.

Someone called in New York? ! Naoki Nagayama picked up the phone in surprise:

"Hello?"

"Naoki-san?" The voice of Nakai Yuta came from the phone, "We've arrived in New York! Did you have a smooth journey?"

"Ah, Yuta-san, I thought it was someone else~" Naoki Nagayama breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, I just got off the plane and came here directly~"

"That's good, how is the apartment?"

This apartment was bought with the help of Nakai Yuta, but he hasn't been here for several years.

"It's well preserved, but I think I need to find someone to clean it every week in the future. Otherwise, it will lack popularity," Naoki Nagayama said.

"Haha, whatever you want~"

After Nakai Yuta continued to ask about the situation in Philadelphia before, he talked about the main topic of today.

"Naoki-san, it's 9 a.m. in New York and almost 10 p.m. in Tokyo," said Nakai Yuta. "Do you need to start meeting with investment managers today? I can ask them to come over now."

"Okay, ask them to come to the office this afternoon~"

"Okay," said Nakai Yuta. "I'll send the schedule to the fax machine in the office."

"Hmm~"

After hanging up the phone, Nagayama Naoki sighed. It was really hard to get ready to go to work as soon as he got off the plane. He came to New York mainly for this matter, and he wanted to get it done early.

"At this time, Akina should still be on the plane?"

After separating from Philadelphia, Nakamori Akina boarded the plane back to Tokyo. She was going back to prepare for the national tour, while Nagayama Naoki came directly to New York.

After simply packing himself up, Naoyama Naoki came to a business building full of energy that exuded the word "wealth".

As an investment institution that aims at the world, Shuyou Investment naturally rented an office in New York and hired a local employee as a liaison.

After reaching the sixth floor, Naoki Nagayama saw a very obvious sign - Shuyou Investment New York Office.

The so-called office, which also has a front desk, conference room and an office dedicated to the boss, is comparable to a small company. After all, when there are some investments, Nakai Yuta or other people in Tokyo will come to New York once.

Meeting clients, signing agreements and so on

The arrival of Naoki Nagayama made the middle-aged white lady at the front desk look up. Yes, the contact person is a fat white lady. If it is a young girl or a man, she will definitely not want such a deserted position, and she will not have the patience to sit in the office.

"Hello, what can I do for you?" After seeing Naoki Nagayama's appearance, she immediately stood up, "Mr. Naoki Nagayama, welcome to the New York office."

"Ha, how did you recognize me?" Naoki Nagayama looked at her curiously, "What is your name?"

"I am Susan, the Tokyo headquarters faxed a photo of Mr. Nagayama." Susan used the key to open the office dedicated to the boss and took Naoki Nagayama inside.

A simple office, with a large solid wood desk and a boss chair, and two chairs for guests. Behind it is a bookcase for storing documents, and green plants are placed in the corner. The only thing worth praising is the window next to it, which can directly see the street view.

"Very good view~" Naoki Nagayama sighed as he stood in front of the window.

"This office is not often occupied, but it was cleaned yesterday."

"Mr. Nagayama, what would you like to drink? Coffee? Tea? Water?"

"Yes, coffee, thank you~"

Naoki Nagayama said something casually, and then sat in the boss chair. Next to the desk was a stack of pre-prepared materials, all of which were specific information about investors, including reputation in the industry, etc.

Although I had seen it once in Tokyo before, I still needed to use it to deepen my impression at this time.

"Mr. Nagayama, here's your coffee." Susan brought a cup of coffee and handed over a schedule. "This is the list that was just faxed over, and the meeting time."

"I see." Nagayama Naoki nodded to Susan. "When they come, let them wait in the conference room."

"Okay~"

The office door closed, and Naoki Nagayama began to look at the information.

Aunt Susan returned to her front desk. It was the first time she met the boss of her company. She didn't expect him to be so young.

As a liaison, Aunt Susan didn't have the personality of the employees in American TV series. She didn't care about the boss or make a fuss. She was just an ordinary employee and a mother of two children.

She still attaches great importance to this leisurely but high-paying job. After all, when she has nothing to do, her time is actually very flexible and she can take care of the family.

"Naoki Nagayama seems to be very rich. Is he the heir to some consortium?"

Such thoughts flashed through her head, but Susan still started working seriously, setting the time according to the list, maintaining order when waiting for people to arrive, etc.

In the afternoon, "financial elites" in suits and ties came to Shuyou Capital's New York liaison office. The large sum of US$100 million was enough to excite all investment managers below the top investment banks.

The investment circle is so big, and almost all the investment managers gathered in the conference room know each other, but everyone is a wolf, and they are not polite when competing for this fund.

"I heard that the neon rich man today is very young!"

"Didn't you do your homework? Naoki Nagayama, a well-known director of Neon, who won the Palme d'Or, is also a writer~"

"Of course I know, but I can't tell the difference between Asians."

The younger investment managers chatted very frivolously. They have been together on Wall Street for a long time and each have a lot of money. Money is too easy for them, and they have a naturally arrogant attitude towards others.

In their eyes, it seems that the person sitting in the office is not a person, but a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

The more prudent investment managers were silently thinking about how to persuade the funder in the office to entrust him with US$100 million for management.

"Susan~" the phone at the front desk rang, "Let the first one come in~"

"Okay~" After Susan heard this, she got up and went to the conference room, "Alan, you are the first!"

As he spoke, a very young investment manager stood up, combed his suit, and then showed a perfect smile with eight teeth:

"Everyone, the funds this time are mine! Please wait a moment!"

Just like this, the confident guy knocked on the door of the office. He didn't open the door until "Please come in" was heard.

Seeing a young man sitting inside, Allen suddenly felt that this big order was already a sure thing. The psychology of a mere young man, under his honed words, why don't you try to control it? !

"Hello, I'm Allen from Ross Capital!"

"Hello, I'm Naoki Nagayama." Naoki Nagayama acted like a capitalist and didn't stand up. He just pointed to the seat in front of the desk and said, "Please sit down~"

"Thank you!" After Allen sat down, he directly displayed the confidence of an American investment manager. "Mr. Yongshan, we at Ross Capital have a history of more than ten years and manage more than one billion US dollars in funds. All our clients are very grateful to us." Full of recognition”

“I never let my clients judge me by my successes, I let them judge me by my mistakes! Because that doesn’t exist!”

"If you trust me to manage your money, you will definitely make the right decision!"

"."

Allen's words were full of confidence. It seemed that not giving him the funds this time would be a wrong decision, as if Naoki Nagayama was already convinced.

Looking at the chattering investment manager in front of him, Naoki Nagayama had a scene from a very famous movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" appear in his mind.

The stock managers there are actually no different from the investment managers in these investment banks.

They also use all kinds of promising words to make customers full of expectations and invest money in the capital market. However, they themselves earn real commissions~

Allen, who was sitting opposite, talked a lot and felt his mouth was a little dry. But when he looked at the young handsome guy opposite, he seemed to be distracted at this time? !

"Ahem, Mr. Nagayama?"

"Huh? Ah!"

Naoki Nagayama finally came to his senses. He did not expect that his brain would suddenly recall a certain movie. Fortunately, after the upgrade, the meeting did not affect the current affairs.

Allen's face was a little dark. Someone actually got distracted while he was talking?

So he asked directly:

"Mr. Nagayama, are you willing to let me manage the funds?!"

"Oh oh, funds."

Nagayama Naoki calmed down: "Alan, do you have any judgment on the recent international currency market?"

"International currency market? Foreign exchange?"

Allen was stunned for a moment. Although his main field is light industry, he also knows about international currencies.

“The U.S. dollar is currently on an upward trend

Because of the increase in basic interest rates, a large amount of money poured into the United States. In the past five years, the U.S. dollar exchange rate has risen by more than 60%.

In the short term, the U.S. dollar will maintain its strong position."

"Well"

Although the analysis of the guy opposite is very reasonable, these are all judgments based on the trends of the international financial market and are not about what may happen.

“Did you know that the U.S. Treasury Secretary is visiting other countries?”

"Of course I know!"

Allen was about to continue to show his knowledge when he was interrupted by Naoki Nagayama.

"Do you know what kind of deal they're going to make?"

"this"

"Have you heard the rumor? The gossip?"

"I heard it is a package plan to stimulate economic development."

"."

It seemed that the guy in front of him didn't know that Nagayama Naoki sighed and had no interest in continuing the conversation.

"Alan, thank you for your visit. Let's stop here today!"

"???!!!"

"Mr. Yongshan!!! Our Roth Capital can definitely increase your capital by 10% every year!"

Naoki Nagayama shook his head:

“This is not enough”

"But..." Allen was unwilling to be shut out like this, and suppressed the anger in his heart and asked, "Mr. Yongshan, can I ask the reason?"

"Because.you know nothing! (You don't know anything)"

You don’t know anything, what are you doing as an investment manager? ! Why not go home and sell sweet potatoes!

"."

"Susan, call the next person in!" Naoki Nagayama pressed the phone, gave instructions to the front desk, and then looked at the investment manager in front of him, "Good day, Mr. Allen~"

"you"

Allen felt that he had encountered the greatest humiliation in his career. He was rejected outright by a neon man! ! ! And no reason was given! ! !

"You will regret this!"

Feeling humiliated, he stood up angrily, then quickly opened the office door and rushed out without looking back~

"Why are you acting like a child?"

Nagayama Naoki looked at this scene in surprise. Did this little pressure break his defense? !

Aren't the investment managers in American TV dramas supposed to roll their eyes, then think of some brilliant idea, and then persevere to persuade their clients? !

At this moment, the next investment manager in a suit and tie walked in, showing a perfect smile with eight teeth:

“Hello, I’m Alex from Mason Capital.”

Susan watched the Wall Street elites walk into the office one by one, and then some walked out with angry faces, while others walked out with confused faces.

But there is one thing in common - each one lasts less than three minutes.

“It’s faster than going to the toilet.”

The white aunt complained in her heart. She had never seen the Wall Street elites feel so aggrieved.

"Susan, next!"

The phone on the table once again recalled her boss's voice. Susan stood up for the nth time and walked towards the conference room.

"Aldrich, it's your turn!"

Listening to this voice, a meticulous middle-aged man with white temples came out, and then walked into the office like his predecessors.

"Please sit down, I am Naoki Nagayama!"

"Hello, I'm Aldrich," Aldrich said simply.

"." Nagayama Naoki didn't wait for the next words and was a little surprised, "Is there anything else?"

"Yes." Aldrich looked sharply at the young man in front of him, "We should wait for Mr. Nagayama's test to finish."

"oh?"

Nagayama Naoki became curious,

"Interesting. So please listen to the question: What do you think of the next trend of the international currency market?"

"."

Aldrich paused and subconsciously looked at the young man across from him. He didn't seem to expect that he would ask this question. However, because he had a relative who was a think tank of the US government, he knew some unconfirmed news.

"The dollar will lose value. Rapidly."

"Why?" Triggering the keyword, Naoki Nagayama sat up straight.

"Because it is too high now, the U.S.'s external industrial competitiveness has declined." Aldrich glanced at Naoki Nagayama. "Even neon can't compete. The trade surplus is too big."

Naoki Nagayama smiled:

"This is a long-term trend, and I ask, why the 'rapid depreciation'?"

Fast is the key word!

Aldrich hesitated for a moment, thinking again about whether to tell the young man in front of him the secret information he had received from his relatives, but looking at Naoki Nagayama, it seemed that he already knew? !

Take a gamble!

"Because the governments of various countries are negotiating an agreement. It is expected to be released soon!"

"Haha, you really know that too!"

Nagayama Naoki's eyes lit up. Sure enough, someone knew this kind of news! ! !

People with inside information, these guys, are the ones who can eat the biggest cake in the capital market!

"Then do you know when it will be announced?" Naoki Nagayama asked.

"This is top secret information, only the finance ministers of each country know it!" Aldrich said subconsciously.

"End of September!"

Naoki Nagayama talked for a while.

"!!!"

Aldrich was shocked! This is not news that ordinary people can know, and it is so certain!

He looked at Nagayama Naoki's young face at this time, and seemed to see a figure hidden behind it, one of those nobles and aristocratic families that have lasted for hundreds of years.

Naoki Nagayama continued:

"Then Mr. Aldrich, I leave my funds to you."

Nagayama Naoki decided on his investment manager in this way, as if he was not worried about losing money at all. After all, knowing the news was equivalent to holding the golden key.

Aldrich needs to gather more funds and build a large capital pool in order to bite a piece of meat in the mouths of many top international investment banks, sovereign funds, and financial giants.

After that, Wonta Nakai was naturally the one to handle the legal affairs, supervision, and final cash-out.
