Chapter 25 fourth quarter

A month later, Shunzi's R newspaper finally had to go bankrupt.Although the president of the newspaper raised funds from various sources, even his own private property was involved.But relying on his personal efforts to save the fate of the newspaper's decline is like trying to support the earth that is about to tilt, which is of no avail.In terms of management, no matter how hard the president works, he can't bring the newspaper's business back to life.The bank also put pressure on them and told them: "We have tried our best to take care of you." In fact, this already meant that they refused to lend to R Newspaper.Not only that, in order to recover the loan, the bank tried their best to persuade them and agreed to let Umino Tatsuhei buy their newspaper office.On the surface, the bank is persuading, but in fact it is also an ultimatum.If the R newspaper does not obey the bank's will, it will only go bankrupt.

The staff of the R newspaper had already foreseen that such a tragic fate would befall them, and they were in fear all day long.In order to gain a foothold, many people actively moved to other units, but only a small number of people succeeded.Most people have no clue.Some well-known newspapers are not willing to accept people who are transferred halfway and they think are tainted.Only those talented young people have more opportunities.Some joined weekly magazines, some joined other newspapers, and many were hired as editors by newspapers.Older staff are not welcome. Kawakita Ryosaku, director of the editorial bureau of R newspaper, also felt embarrassed at this time.He begged his predecessors and confidants, but they treated him vaguely.They said: "We don't really need people here;" "This unit is full"; "Let's talk about it in a few days" and so on, but there was no pertinent answer.In the past, when he was entrenched in the position of editorial director in a high-spirited way outside, he made many acquaintances by relying on the status of the director, but once the newspaper disintegrated, this prominent position would no longer exist.Even if it exists, it will not come upon him.Gradually, those acquaintances also became indifferent to him.People in the society also looked at him differently.In addition, Ryosaku Kawakita has no popularity in the R newspaper. Because of his faultfinding, and since he climbed to the throne of the bureau chief, the newspaper's big ship has been sinking day by day, and the staff hate him very much.He also has no ability to save the R newspaper from its fate.

Umino Tatsuhei is finally interested in accepting members of the R newspaper.But when you open his "gourd cover", there are prerequisites.The premise is the so-called "equivalence condition".According to his reciprocal conditions, people have to admit the fiasco of R Newspaper.The total number of employees of the R newspaper office that he took over to the new company was less than one-third, and almost all of them were assigned to the printing factory. Ryoce Kawakita still pretended to be calm.On the third day after the newspaper office declared bankruptcy, at the commemorative meeting for the disbandment held by the whole newspaper, he sank his fat body on a chair covered with a snow-white cover as usual.All the heads of the newspaper were present at the meeting, including executives, executives, and directors of various business bureaus.They are very anxious inside, but no one wants to let others see their uneasiness and embarrassment.And they are all testing each other, inquiring about other people's way out and ways to survive.They talked and laughed happily, almost like having a tea party, without the sad atmosphere of breaking up at all.Maybe this is their "self-esteem" in the last second!

"I heard that Uno Tatsuhei suddenly disappeared a month ago and his whereabouts are unknown. Someone said that he was on a business trip in Osaka and disappeared for two whole days." A special manager suddenly brought up this topic.Anyway, this person was not hired, and he didn't care about the stinky Umino Tatsuhei on this occasion. "Ah! That's really incredible." Executive said. "Hey, the big and small leaders of the paper company and the TV company are all terrified and arguing. They think it's impossible for the manager to disappear for two days."

"It is said that he miraculously returned and broke the predicament. All in all, he is a true dictator. Regarding the matter of his disappearance, the board of directors did not dare to mention it, and they all pretended to be confused like a mute." "This matter, hehehehe!" The executive said with a smirk, "According to reliable sources, the prelude started when Unano Tatsuhira traveled from Osaka to Fukuoka's airport. The location was resting at Fukuoka's airport." Hey. He met a lovely man unexpectedly. According to this person's report: Unano Tatsuhei brought a young and beautiful woman."

"Ho ho!" All the people present were amazed, and turned their eyes to the executive. "Who did Unano meet in the airport lounge?" the executive asked. "This is a person who makes Unano Tatsuhei not very happy. Hehe, it is Mr. Haraguchi, our newspaper colleague. That guy was waiting for a plane in Fukuoka, and Unano Tatsupei bumped into him as soon as he got off the plane. Very ruthless, he mocked and said that he was bringing the secretary, and even said the woman's name. But Haraguchi was dubious." "Hey Hey……!" "This old fellow Haraguchi is that kind of man. It is said that he immediately went to the paper making head office to investigate. So, there is no such woman among the secretaries. All the secretaries of Uno Tatsuhei are men. Haraguchi said that when he was in Fukuoka, he consciously Twisted around with Haiye Chenping. He said, even you Haiye, I will catch you off guard and ask you to name me."

"Did it come out? What's your name?" Executive followed closely. "It's Junko Misawa!" "Ah?" Chuanbei Liangce couldn't help but lean forward, "Sunko Misawa?" "You know her?" "I know it, I don't know it. It's the staff of our newspaper!" This time, everyone's eyes turned to Kawahoku Liangce together. "She works in the data investigation department. Once, I punished the director of the data investigation department and the collation department because I put a wrong photo of a foreigner on the page. At that time, she found the wrong photo, and she was the accident the culprit."

Ryoce Kawakita always felt that the fact that Junko Misawa and Tatsuhei Unano went out to Fukuoka was not credible.It stands to reason that it is not surprising that Unano Tatsuhei called out the name "Sunko Misawa".Because at the nightclub, it was Junko Misawa who poured a bottle of beer on his head.Later, he took her to apologize to Hai Ye Chenping.Umino Tatsuhei should have a deep impression of Misawa Junko.Did he inadvertently say this impressive name while prevaricating Harakou?However, based on his own feelings, Kawakita seems to feel that it is not impossible for Junko Misawa and Tatsuhei Unano to go to Fukuoka, Kyushu.

"Hey, manager, Haraguchi didn't say what that woman looks like?" Kawakita Ryosaku asked. "Yeah, I said it. Hey! That fellow Haraguchi was so fascinated when he saw a woman that he didn't know where his eyes were. But he said that this time he has eyes and can see very clearly." So, dedicated Wu roughly described the appearance of the woman he heard from Yuankou. "That's right!" Kawakita Ryoce shouted in his heart: "It's Junko Misawa!..." Chuanbei Liangce knew that Misawa Junko had resigned from the newspaper office.If what Haraguchi said was true, then Unano Tatsuhei probably kept Sunja by his side.Even if you don't stay with you, you can arrange it at the TV bureau.As long as Misawa Junko is willing, she can also be arranged in the re-established newspaper office.Even if she is arranged in a unit that others don't know about, it might not be possible.These are all unexpected.

As soon as the meeting was over, Ryosaku Kawakita hurriedly looked through his address book and called Mihara Masako's apartment. "Yo, did you ask Shunzi? She works in our store." Masako Mihara's answer once again surprised Ryosaku Kawakita. In the nightclub lobby, an impromptu performance begins.A foreign father and son performed funny acrobatics.Because it is a silent performance, in order to make people laugh, the movements are full of gags.During the performance, the older male actor was mercilessly "beaten" by his twenty-seven or eight-year-old son, kicking him far away.

A male guest in the auditorium said to the waitress Junko Misawa next to him: "I heard that the father and son have traveled around the world, and their lives are very unstable." "Yeah, what's the point of their show!" interrupted a waitress. "It's not bad to wander around the world carefree. You can earn money and enjoy the scenery of various countries. It's really an eye-opener. Such a good thing doesn't come across!" "Oh, where! He must have a family and a wife. His son may also have children, and they also hope that the family will be reunited and live and work in peace and contentment." The male guest seemed to sympathize with the father and son.Although this person is also a minister of a first-class company, his job in the company may be very smooth, and he will have a stable family.However, who can guarantee that he will not have troubles on the road of life?Even if the company's operation is very stable, it's hard to say that he won't get into trouble in society, in other aspects, and in dealing with people, and there will be times of confusion and disappointment.He, too, could only hope to be content with living a peaceful life. Misawa Junko is still not used to the pace of life in nightclubs.She just sat silently beside the guests.What she can do is: when the guests want to smoke, she quickly lights up; when the guests persuade her to drink, she takes a sip with the guests.As for the guests making jokes with her, she just blushed and smiled, and she couldn't tell witty words, and dealt with them in a smooth manner. Masako Mihara is very concerned about Junko Misawa, and she always protects her old classmates.It was she who asked the manager to let Sanze Junzi into the nightclub.She often said to her manager: "Sunko Misawa is a novice, so don't make things difficult for her." Of course, Misawa Junko's income is not high, and it only accounts for less than half of the income of a popular waitress like Masako.However, it was several times higher than her income at the newspaper office. A guest invites Junko Misawa to a dance.Misawa Junko accompanied the guests to the middle of the hall. When dancing, the guests often say: "You are not very familiar with your current job." And most of them asked her: "What did you do before?" No matter how the guests asked questions, Misawa Junko never mentioned the name of the newspaper. Forced by life, Misawa Junko chose the profession of waitress blindly.She just thought that she was with Masako Mihara.It is also Masako's kindness that cannot be denied.Sometimes she also feels that going on like this is not a long-term solution, but she can't get rid of this kind of life.She always felt that there was a sense of emptiness haunting her, which made her unable to escape. Among the guests of the nightclub, there were also managers of some big companies who specially brought a young and beautiful female secretary to show off.Those women are generally employees of the company, and they also serve as secretaries for these senior bosses.Judging from their appearance and behavior, it is not difficult for a discerning person to know the "relationship" between the manager and the secretary.Favored secretaries followed their managers with arrogance and were not so deferential to their superiors. "Hey, have you ever experienced that kind of experience?" Masako Mihara looked at the old man and the female secretary next to him, nudged Junko Misawa with his elbow and said, "That woman must be very proud in the company. Look! The one on the right People, with gray hair, must be a veteran in the company. You see, they don't look good in front of the female secretary." Yes, those managers who are over half a century old really put a lot of effort into their female secretaries. It's not that Misawa Junko didn't dream of living such a life.On the way from Fukuoka, Kyushu to Tsuetate Onsen, this kind of consideration began to germinate.At that time, Umino Tatsuhei's seductive words once painted a rainbow-like picture for her.It also gave her wonderful reveries... Before this, Misawa Junko was criticized and attacked by the newspaper just because she found the wrong photo, and also suffered inexplicable malicious slander and personal attacks because of her contact with the director Yoshisaku Kawakita. I understand, a female employee who lives on wages will pay a huge price for a small mistake!The power struggle within the newspaper caused her, an innocent woman, to suffer harm and become a victim of the power struggle.How prudent and prudent one must be in order to live!In the eyes of others, some things may be insignificant, but these small things often bring unexpected endings to the person concerned, and even change her entire life path. Masako Mihara's words touched Junko Misawa again.If she had agreed to be Umino Tatsuhei's secretary and entered the company to work as he said, her life without goals and hopes would have added infinite brilliance.Like in a movie or a novel, life can magically change.She could not help fantasizing about the life of the secretary Masako had shown her just now.Their lives are also what their future lives will look like.As Umino Tatsuhei, the power will be more powerful than these managers.Being favored by this person, taking advantage of his reputation and status, she can do whatever she wants... At least she can take revenge on the R club that once hurt her. This is by no means a dream!At that time, Unano Tatsuhei did have this meaning, and there are sufficient conditions for the realization of this kind of life.However, as mentioned earlier, due to the fire at the hot spring hotel, her fantasy was shattered overnight.At the critical moment, the man's egoism was fully exposed, which shocked Junko Sanze. When the hot spring hotel caught fire, Umino Tatsuhira instinctively protected himself.He was annoyed that the fire would expose and publicize his relationship with Junko Misawa.His love, too, was like a burning fire, glowing brilliantly at first, and then turning to pale ashes. In just one night, Misawa Junko's hopes came to naught.Of course, no matter who it is, it is possible to encounter this kind of bad luck on the road of life, but the circumstances and the length of time are different.There was at least a sense of relief when Junko Misawa left Unino Tatsuhei in Hakata and decided to go her own way. In this way, Misawa Junko worked at the R newspaper for a whole year, and acted alone with Umino Tatsuhei for two full days. These, like a dream, remained in her memory faintly, and this will replace the damage caused by her work mistakes. The psychological trauma will be the perseverance for her to live independently in the future.She had not been hurt enough to kill her.From this point of view, perhaps it is worth rejoicing. At the guest seat opposite, Misawa Junko saw the manager who was over sixty years old stand up and was about to leave.As usual, his secretary followed him pompously.The younger cadres and staff who came with them surrounded them politely and thoughtfully while bowing.Sunja watched them go.The female secretary's expression, that kind of complacency, was also left in my memory before.As Masako Mihara said: She also had that kind of experience. If the fire hadn't made a joke, she would have realized that kind of life. "Recently, I can't even see the shadow of Umino Tatsuhei." Mihara Masako said with a cigarette in his mouth, "He clearly knows that you work here." "..." Junko Misawa didn't know what to say. "Just now, the guard came to report that Umino Tatsuhei's car drove to Fulawa Kangji." The "Fulawa Kangji" mentioned by Masako Mihara is the name of another nightclub not far from here.It seems that Umino Tatsuhei avoided this place and went to have fun there instead. "Umino Tatsuhei will always feel guilty for working here for you. This person is so heartless!" "Stop it!" Junko Misawa stopped her and said, "When I stepped into life and was full of passion for the future, I had a nightmare. Thanks to this nightmare, I matured." "Indeed," Mihara Masako smiled: "I really can't tell, you have become much smarter." The two laughed and whispered. "Hey, that's right!" Masako seemed to think of something suddenly: "I don't know if it was yesterday. Kawakita Ryosaku—hey, it was your former editorial director. He called to ask about you, and I said you were here. Like a surprise." "Oh." Shunzi greeted. "That newspaper office has finally collapsed. I heard what the guests said. It seems that Kawahoku Ryosuke hasn't gone anywhere." Now when it comes to Chuanbei Liangce, Shunzi feels that it seems to have nothing to do with him.If the newspaper collapsed, the head of the original data investigation department, Zentaro Suehiro, and the deputy head, Kenkichi Kanemori, would probably also be eliminated.But I don't know what happened to that Mitsuko Hanoi with curly hair, paste all day, and scissors in his hands?And Kazuo Kiuchi who thinks he is in love with him has also found a new job?That guy has a quiet personality, I hope he can find a good job... "Hey, Junko," said Masako Mihara, "I don't know if you have the same feeling, but I think people's fate is immutable." Misawa Junko didn't immediately understand what she meant. "Think about it, isn't that exactly the case? For example, although you and Unano Tatsuhei spent a very short time together, it should be said that you have a lot of feelings? You have also accumulated some life experience. And, if there are no accidents , maybe you have already become the concubine of the proud behemoth Umino Tatsuhei. No, you can become his concubine and walk into his life unimpeded.... However, now you, and an ordinary person Same, sitting beside me. You were exactly the same as you are now, you, you are still you, nothing has changed. I also seem to feel that your life before this seems to be far away from you, it is really like a legend. When we were in school, we studied together and were classmates; here, we work together and are colleagues. What’s the difference between colleagues and classmates? Thinking about it, it’s unbelievable. Some people say that life is like a dream, and it’s true.” Yes, life is like a dream.Everything is working as it should.This seems to be the language in some book.And just as Masako said, life is really incredible. Things are changing, but it feels like nothing has changed.Your experiences, your feelings and your views on life are nothing but insignificant things, some of which are even difficult to retain in memory.In a long life, it is just a dream. The waiter came over quietly and whispered something to Masako Mihara. "Sunzi, my guest is here, come with me too!" Amidst the music, Masako Mihara said to Shunzi with a smile. (full text)
