Chu Yue's destination was the Isetan Shinjuku Main Store, which was only 800 meters away from Jr. Shinjuku Station.
After Chu Yue got out of the taxi, he spent 20,000 yen on the fare and tip.
1989 was the most prosperous year in the game.
There were people waving ten-thousand-yuan bills on the streets just to hail a taxi.
The taxi owners also chose people. They would choose those who were generous and gave a lot of tips.
Chu Yue walked in front, followed closely by Zhao Xiao and Jiao Yuejin. They entered the Isetan Shinjuku Main Store, a super department store established in 1933.
After he entered, he asked Zhao Xiao to ask about the layout before he went straight to the floor that sold communication equipment.
On the fifth floor of the mall, Chu Yue found a shop that specialized in satellite phones.
Immediately, a pretty waitress walked up and bowed politely, asking Chu Yue what he wanted.
"I want three satellite phones of the latest model.”Chu Yue said.
Zhao Xiao quickly translated.
Immediately, the salesgirl's smile became even brighter as she showed Chu Yue the latest satellite phone model.
Satellite phones were an absolute luxury in this era.
Its history could be traced back to 1983, when the world's first civilian satellite phone appeared.
In 1989, the launch of the International Satellite Q brought satellite phones into the second stage of development.
International Satellite VI, weighing 1600 kilograms, had 46 transponders, and a communication capacity of 24000 two-way voice channels and three television channels. After using digital doubling equipment, it was expanded to 120,000 voice channels.
The satellite repeater not only used the C-band (6/4chuckle), but also used the Ku band (14/11chuckle) at the spot beam.
In short, the cost of satellite phones had been reduced.
However, there were still 7000 dollars for one!
The internet access fee was 1200 US dollars, the satellite phone card was 300 US dollars, and the monthly fee was 1200 US dollars!
An absolute luxury!
Chu Yue directly bought a satellite phone and logged into the network on the spot. He even bought three of them in one go.
When the salesgirl saw that the order was made, she looked at Chu Yue with respect and admiration.
She walked over, wrote a note, and said a few words. Then, she looked at Chu Yue, her face a little red.
When Zhao Xiao heard this, her face turned red.
"This…Miss, are you planning to stay in the notebook for a while?" Zhao Xiao asked.”
"She is asking if you need a tour guide who knows the local area. This is her home number. If you need, she is willing to accompany you to spend a wonderful holiday in Tokyo.”
Chu Yue chuckled when he heard that.
It wasn't the era where action movies were everywhere. The global reviews said that women were reserved, but it also depended on the situation.
As the capital of East Asia, in 1989, some women had long since stopped using their bodies to exchange for money as something shameful.
"Tell her, thank you for your kindness, but I'm mainly doing business this time, so it's not suitable.”
"I'll take the number. Let's meet again if fate allows.”
Chu Yue said after putting away the satellite phone.
Chu Yue took his leave. The salesgirl was a little disappointed, but she still sent Chu Yue off politely.
With the satellite, Chu Yue had saved his phone bill. It would be more convenient for him in the future.
In the future, many of his businesses would require international contacts. It would be too troublesome to go to the telephone office every time.
The speed of information transmission was money.
The faster the transmission, the faster the money earned.
Chu Yue bought three satellite phones and wanted to keep one in the country.
The other was a gift for Voroshilov.
Chu Yue could contact his big brother whenever he needed to.
After all, it was up to Voroshilov whether he could get a loan from Big Brother's state-owned bank.
……
Chu Yue bought a few more outfits.
He even got Jiao Yuejin a black suit.
After all, he was out to do big business. He couldn't let others look down on him. He had to be high-class.
After shopping, Chu Yue called for a taxi. Zhao Xiao and Jiao Yue got in the car together. The three of them took a taxi to Dongjing Empire Hotel.
This was the most stylish hotel in Tokyo. The location of the hotel was excellent. It was only a five-minute walk from Ginza and Marunouchi to the famous shops. It was also very convenient for sightseeing in Asakusa, Akihabara, and Tokyo Resort.
The hotel's decor was elegant and noble, and it was the most favored by the various countries 'diplomat,zz families, ministers, and royalty.
He asked for a top-class suite.
The daily fee was 125,000 yen.
This was not acting cool, but it was necessary.
For a long time to come, the Empire Hotel would be Chu Yue's business base.
Business people were all particular about their standards. Many of them would choose their dishes based on the people they served. It was the same in all countries.
It was more appropriate for Chu Yue to negotiate at the Empire Hotel.
Chu Yue had booked a top-class suite for two months. There was a discount, but it was still 80,000 yen a day.
Chu Yue called Voroshilov's relatives.
His name was Grigory Efimovich.
He had an office and a landline in Tokyo.
The call went through.
“hello?”
Chu Yue's English was much better than his Russian. He reported his identity and soon arranged to meet Gregory at the Empire Hotel.
Chu Yue had arranged to meet the other party at the lobby of the hotel at two o'clock in the afternoon.
……
The next day.
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Yue met Gregory in the lobby of the hotel.
This person was tall and thin, at 1.88 meters tall. He was slightly bald and looked a little neurotic.
He looked a little like a Hollywood star, Nicholas Cage.
The two of them exchanged pleasantries and went to the hotel cafe to talk about something.
"Let me tell you what I need."
"I want to set up a company that doesn't need to pay taxes. I also need to be associated with the Feiyue Trading Company in China and have proof of business relationships with two domestic import and export trading companies.”
"Now I have the proof of transfer from the Hong Kong and Shanghai bank, as well as the English documents of the Chinese company.”
Chu Yue said.
