Rebirth starts with small money

Chapter 629 Akihabara

In the end~ Chen Li still didn't meet the owner of this restaurant!

Chen Li guessed that the other party was afraid to come to see him, and it was also possible that Comrade Xiao Liu, the translator, had notified the other party's boss.

The reason is also very simple. I can't see the boss~ There is still room to talk about everything, but if I meet the boss, it will definitely be unjustifiable if I don't give a definite result.

What can Xiao Liu say~ In fact, he is really smarter!

This buddy corrected his attitude as soon as he found out that the matter had been exposed, and put on a straightforward look of accepting punishment. This made Chen Li, who was originally planning to slap the other party in the face, have no sense of experience at all.

But what to say~ In fact, this situation is the most normal phenomenon. After all, this buddy has been in this industry for several years and can still make it so big, which is enough to prove that his IQ and EQ must be online.

Knowing that the matter has been brought to light, still a dead pig is not afraid of the scalding of boiling water. That is definitely something that only two fools can do.

But if Xiao Liu were the second fool, Wu Minyi would not have chosen him as the interpreter for Chen Li's trip to Tokyo.

So~ this buddy straightened up his position right away, and let Chen Li get away with it.

And his purpose~ is also very simple, that is, to hope that Chen Li will not expose this matter.

To be honest~ How serious do you think it is to get some kickbacks for translation?It's actually not that serious.

It's not that such a thing itself is correct, but that this kind of behavior is also a common phenomenon in the industry.

That is to say ~ if he only got kickbacks, then even if Chen Li exposed this incident, the punishment Xiao Liu would actually receive would be very limited.

It's even not very pleasant to say~ they deal with classmate Xiao Liu on the surface, but what to do behind the scenes or what to do.

Because this is a kind of tacit understanding between the translation industry and the restaurant business, and it can even be regarded as a kind of business cooperation.

But this guy not only takes rebates, but also eats the price difference, and the act of taking the price difference is not as simple as taking kickbacks.

Because this thing, strictly speaking, should be a kind of commercial fraud.

Moreover, this kind of behavior also involves the restaurant itself. Once there is a disturbance in the restaurant, it will naturally not let Xiao Liu translate.

To put it bluntly, it is an unspoken rule in the industry to take rebates, but to eat the price difference is an act that will be cast aside.

Of course ~ even with these two points, Chen Li can at most ruin Xiao Liu's reputation, but this guy really has to be thick-skinned ~ but he can still work in this industry.

With his ability~ sooner or later, he will be able to make a splash.

Of course~ this doesn't mean that Chen Li can't take care of him, as long as he wants to, he can take care of Xiao Liu casually.

Not to mention anything else~ Just say that the difference between the rebates this guy got and the prices he ate was 100% tax-free.

And this guy is holding a student visa, which is more restricted to work in the island country. As a result, this guy is also tax evasion, and tax evasion is a very serious problem in any capitalist country.

At that time, it is not impossible to be deported back to China.

But... Chen Li doesn't have any enmity with this guy, so there's no need to make things so serious.

Hmm~ Well, Chen Li did think so at first!

In fact~ even if this guy eats and grabs, but if you really want to say how angry Chen Li is, it's really not enough.

Firstly, Chen Li didn't care about the little money, and secondly, this guy's plotting loudly in front of him was actually quite comical in Chen Li's opinion.

So. At first, Chen Li really didn't want to do anything to this guy!
But when this guy gave Chen Li a ninety-degree bow in order to apologize~ Chen Li suddenly changed his mind.

The reason is very simple~ This guy seems to be a bit eroded by the culture of the island country!

Even the act of apologizing is exactly the same as that of the islanders.

This made Chen Li very upset!
If this guy is honest, obediently apologizes, and spits out the money he has embezzled, Chen Li really plans to let this guy go.

As a result, this buddy bowed and apologized like an island country, which really made Chen Li a little speechless.

Well~ Actually this is normal!
Although Xiao Liu is only an overseas student, this guy has actually been in the island country for several years.

This guy stayed in Tokyo from undergrad to master (graduate)!
As for the reason~ Of course it's because he's doing well here.

And a person like him who had a good life in a foreign country is actually easy to forget his roots.

Not to mention anything else~ As far as this guy's ability is concerned, it is impossible to have such a high income in China.

You know~ This guy is still on a student visa. If he immigrates to an island country, he will probably earn more in the future.

Of course ~ if this guy is making money in the island country, then this kind of manifestation is not so obvious.

But if it is an island country that makes money and spends it domestically, then the comparison is obvious!
Of course~ To be honest, if this buddy can study abroad in the 90s, it is estimated that his family is not too short of money.

But even so~ the high income of the island country is still a bit too attractive for the Chinese people at the moment.

But once you stay for a long time~ it is easy to be integrated into the local culture, and then it is easy to forget your origin.

Of course~ these things are not absolute, after all, there are many talents in China who have returned to serve the motherland after studying abroad.

In fact, Chen Li doesn't bother to care about how others choose. After all, everyone has the right to choose.

But the problem is~ Xiao Liu committed a crime in his hands, so we have to talk about it.

Chen Li lost interest in the farce after classmate Liu bowed since childhood. He directly asked Zhang Ruolan to call Wu Minyi, and then took Zhang Ruolan and Master Cheng back to the hotel.

Comrade Xiao Liu, who was supposed to accompany them all the way, was called back by the company. As for what will happen next, Chen Li handed it over to Wu Minyi to deal with it.

After a lunch break at the hotel, Chen Li took his assistant and driver to meet a staff member sent by Wu Minyi to go shopping in the afternoon.

In fact, although Chen Li is not proficient in the island dialect, his spoken language is definitely better than most translators who are not so professional.

So even if Wu Minyi didn't send someone, Chen Li could still handle it.

But Chen Li was the boss, neither Zhang Ruolan nor Wu Minyi could let Chen Li do the translation work, so Wu Minyi asked Yasuda Yingzi for help and called a staff member over.

This staff member is a young girl who looks young, and it is said that she is also an international student, but this is an island country student who once went to Yanjing to study abroad.

Even this is Chen Li's alumni, strictly speaking, even Chen Li's senior sister.

That's right~ This young lady named Chiba Nako~ once studied at Yanjing University of Foreign Studies.

Chiba Nako is actually not pretty, but many people will never forget her just by looking at her, because this girl not only has a childlike face, but also loves to smile very much.

Such a person~ the affinity will be very strong, so this is probably why Yasuda Sakurako sent her over.

"Mr. Chen~ Do you have any specific requirements for shopping?"

"Uh~ I'm sorry, although I went to school in Yanjing, I seldom communicate with people in Chinese after returning to China."

"So maybe I wasn't expressing that clearly."

"If it causes you any inconvenience ~ please forgive me."

Chiba Naiko came up to Chen Li and bowed a series of times, but her bows and the bows of the little Liu translator gave Chen Li a different feeling.

At least~ Chen Li doesn't dislike Chiba Nako's bow, after all, this is the habit of islanders.

This kind of thing~ You can say that Chen Li has double standards, or that he looks at it differently, anyway, he is not happy to see a Chinese person who is like an islander who is always [-] degrees.

"Miss Chiba, please!"

"I want to buy some electronics and do some shopping, where is the best place to go?"

Chen Li nodded and expressed his request.

In fact, Chen Li has no need for shopping in Tokyo.

But there is no way~ Going abroad these days, sometimes it is not your own business at all.

Just like Chen Li's trip to the island country~ There is a so-called list in his pocket, which is full of things that some acquaintances and friends around him asked him to help buy.

There are not only the shopping lists of Ma Xiaoyun and Xiao Ma, but even Zhou Hongyi's Mensao asked Chen Li to help him buy a game console.

Not to mention that damn girl Chen Xue had to let him buy a genuine Sony Walkman from the island country.

This feeling makes Chen Li very depressed!A group of Chinese elites are so fond of foreign things.

But despite being depressed, Chen Li had to admit that in 2001, the island nation's electronic products were indeed very powerful.

Chen Li is not a hypocritical person, there are some things~ lagging behind is lagging behind, anyway, the big deal is to catch up in the future.

Of course~ In fact, there is not much time left for the island nation's electronic products.

When the era of intelligence comes a few years later, although the island nation's electronic products cannot be said to have completely declined, it can be regarded as sunset.

But in any case, in 2001, there was nothing to say about the electronic products of the island country.

"Hmm~!"

"If you want to buy luxury goods, then I would definitely recommend Daikanyama and Ginza first."

"But if you just want to go shopping and buy some electronic products. I suggest going to Akihabara."

Chiba Nako stared at Chen Li and thought for a moment, then gave an accurate answer.

It's just that Chen Li was a little taken aback by her answer.Because. Chen Li knows the place of Akihabara so fucking well.

No~ To be precise, Chen Li doesn't know this place well. In fact, he has been here once.

In his previous life, when he accompanied his girlfriend to travel to the island country, he had been to this famous place.

And the other time~ when Chen Li brought his family to travel in the island country. But he never took his family here because it was not suitable!
After all, Chen Li's family is not two-dimensional, so it is naturally impossible for him to be interested in Akihabara.

Yes~ Speaking of Akihabara, the first word that pops up in the minds of most Chinese people is probably .
Two-dimensional!
What impressed Chen Li the most in his previous life was the various Two-dimensional ladies and various themed cafes.

And for Two-dimensional fans on the domestic Internet, Akihabara is simply a holy place in their minds.

As for electronic products~ Well, it seems that there are really a lot of places selling electronic products there!
In fact, Akihabara was a neighborhood famous for selling electrical appliances in the early days.

Later, from the 80s to the 90s, driven by the popularization of computers and the wave of technological innovation, the ACGN industry also showed a prosperous situation.

At that time, many ACGN fans began to visit Akihabara, and driven by business opportunities ~ some teahouses that imitated the scene settings in the game and the costumes of the characters appeared at this time.

And then ~ some coffee shops with cosplay waiters as a gimmick also appeared one after another.

These combined manga teahouses and game coffee shops have brought a lot of popularity to Akihabara, and even became the holy place for the later Two-dimensional gate.

In fact, whether it is the Chen Li of the previous life or the Chen Li of this life, it is not Two-dimensional.

But Chen Li had a two-dimensional girlfriend in his previous life, so he has a little understanding of this group.

In addition, in Chen Li's previous life, he often went to a small website to watch videos and variety shows. As he got more and more in contact with Two-dimensional groups, he knew more or less about Two-dimensional things.

In the previous life, when Chen Li accompanied his girlfriend to travel to the island country, he came to Akihabara specifically.

At that time, Chen Li admired his girlfriend~ because when she saw a cosplay girl, she could accurately tell the name and background of the character played by the other party.

This was somewhat shocking to Chen Li who didn't watch anime much.

You know~ In Chen Li's eyes, many cosplay ladies are dressed in the same way, for example, many of them are dressed as maids, but her girlfriend can tell the difference in each other's roles based on the details of the headgear and even the maid's costume sex.

And that time, Chen Li went to experience a maid cafe with his girlfriend.

To be honest~ a little disappointed!

Because there were no good-looking girls in the coffee shop they went to.

That's right~ I don't know if Chen Li and his girlfriend went to the wrong place, anyway, the maid in that coffee shop probably weighs no less than 120 catties.

And the most important thing is that none of the young ladies are taller than 1 meters.

So that trip to Akihabara, Chen Li's girlfriend was satisfied, but to Chen Li, it brought a bit of psychological shadow to some extent.

It was also for this reason that when Chiba Nako proposed to go to Akihabara, the first impression in Chen Li's mind was that maid cafe.

oh~NO!

Uh~ yes~ Chen Li felt a voiceover that often appeared in some videos in his previous life appeared in his mind.

But then, Chen Li threw away this idea again.

Because according to the time trajectory, in 2001, the maid cafe did not appear at all.

And to be honest~ I had a girlfriend with me in my previous life, and Chen Li was a bit restrained when he saw those two-dimensional girls on the street, but this time.
Hehe~ Chen Li is really curious about what Akihabara looked like in 2001.

So~ he nodded and said:
"Okay~ I'll trouble Miss Chiba then."

"Let's go to Akihabara for a walk!"

Seeing that Chen Li agreed, there seemed to be a gleam of light in Chiba Nako's eyes, it was obvious. This girl likes Akihabara very much, doesn't she?

Chen Li glanced at the back of Chiba Nako who was turning her back to contact the vehicle, and couldn't help but feel a little muttered in her heart.
This Nako Chiba...wouldn't it be a Two-dimensional too?
