There was also a disco in Roppongi, a theme park for adults.
An ordinary white-collar worker's entertainment after work was going to bars, dancing, and drinking. On weekends, he would either play golf or ski. Whether it was a round of golf or a night at the hostess bar in Ginza, it could easily cost him thousands of dollars.
It was common to buy wedding dresses worth more than ten thousand dollars for a wedding, and to fly to Hawaii or Bali for a honeymoon. It was normal for a wedding to cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.
In 1989, an ordinary salesperson who had just graduated from a pharmaceutical company had an annual customer service fee of more than 150,000 USD.
He took his customers to fancy restaurants and hostess clubs, and then took them along with the hostess to drink more drinks, sing more karaoke, dance more, and finally call a taxi home for everyone. Even if he did this at least three times a week, he would not be able to use up all the money.
For this reason, some of the more "aggressive" salespeople would reach an agreement with the hostess so that they could get a 20% to 40% discount on entertainment expenses, which was usually equal to their salary.
The luxurious Ukiyo-e.
On New Year's Eve, Chu Yue stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the Empire Hotel's top-class suite. He held a glass of champagne and looked out at the most prosperous area of Tokyo, which was still crowded even on New Year's Day.
Everyone looked so happy.
No one realized that a demon named Bubble Burst was already hovering above the book, baring its fangs at any time.
"Let's party. This might be the happiest day for you in the next 30 years.”
"Ignorance can be very blissful sometimes, even if it's just an illusion of happiness.”
Chu Yue's expression was calm as he drank the champagne in his hand.
…The
book had their Spring Festival Gala, which was the annual Red and White Music Festival.
At the Red and White Music Festival, there were no crosstalk or skits. There were only songs.
They had to find the most popular singer of the year and the one with a good character to sing until the new year.
Chu Yue also listened to the song for a while and saw Kudo Shizuka singing it.
She was singing "Kokuji-Ruri Kakara Aphrodisiac."
The female singer was still young, but she looked quite sexy in this era.
Amidst the song, 1989 passed, and the New Year's Day of 1990 arrived.
January
4th, 1990.
After the New Year holiday, all kinds of industries began to resume work.
Chu Yue had also completed the leverage injection of the off-market capital allocation.
He had a total of 60.3 billion yen in funds, and he kept 300 million yen for himself. The remaining 60 billion yen was added to the off-market allocation six times, making it 360 billion yen.
Then, the triple leverage that came with the stock index futures was a total of eighteen times leverage, which was 1.08 trillion yen.
The reason why he only added 18 times leverage was because Chu Yue recalled that after the collapse of the Nikkei 225 stock index, there had been several small adjustments.
The leverage of 18 times was within the safety line. Even if the rate of correction reached 5%, it would not affect the safety of Chu Yue's funds.
After spending the New Year's Day, although he still had some emotions, he had adjusted his state of mind and completed the transaction entrusted by Chu Yue.
At present, the Nikki 225 index was at 38875 points, which was slightly lower than the highest point. Chu Yue had used all his funds of 1,080 billion yen to buy 27782 bearish stock index futures contracts at a price of 38.875,000 yen.
A put contract was essentially the same as a call contract, but in the opposite direction.
As long as the Nikki 225 index fell by 1 point, then each bearish stock index futures contract would earn Chu Yue 1000 yen.
Nomura was not optimistic about the deal.
Although the deal went through, Nomura quietly fired 35 employees, leaving only 20.
His attitude was obvious.
After buying all the stock index futures contracts, Takezhong Hui endured it for a long time, but he couldn't help it.
Before the stock trading stopped on January 4th, Zhu Zhonghui came to Chu Yue's office.
After entering, he took a deep breath and said,""Mr. Chu, I've bought all the futures contracts you asked me to buy.”
"I know I'm not in a position to speak, but there are some things that I have to say.”
"Although I don't know what kind of judgment Mr. Chu made, you think that f * ck…The stock market will decline, but I want to remind you that if possible, please don't operate all your funds. At least leave yourself a billion or two billion yen.”
"Even if the stock index futures of the Nikki suffer losses, it will not involve your off-market funds. This way, no matter what happens, even if you are forced to close your position, you still have a chance to make a comeback.”
When Chu Yue heard this, he could feel Zhu Zhonghui's mood.
Although Zhu Zhonghui was not optimistic about Chu Yue's investment behavior, he still gave some reliable suggestions.
If Chu Yue had made the wrong judgment, he would not have lost too badly. At least, he would have left himself a way out.
Chu Yue was a little touched.
Although Zhu Zhonghui was a scriptwriter and did not think highly of Chu Yue, he still endured the pressure and thought for Chu Yue.
"This Takeinaka Teru isn't bad. When he really collapses, I'll give him some pointers.”Chu Yue thought to himself.
Of course, he wouldn't pay for his losses.
However, for the sake of their friendship, he could give Zhu Zhonghui some advice.
What he didn't know was that his kindness would save him from his tragic fate of committing suicide in the future.
