Chapter: 6735

Miazaki said, "That can't be guarded here? What if they swarm in and attack? What do we do then?"

Ye Chen said: "The backstage has only two entrances, easy to seal off. My people will come over and start setting up defenses first. We'll set up three layers of defense, with your people on the outside layer, my people in the middle layer, and I'll take responsibility for the last layer. Meanwhile, I'll ensure that the middle layer doesn't have any traitors, you ensure that the outside layer doesn't have any, like this, we can isolate risks."

"'And besides, this is a public place, it's Tokyo's largest performance venue. Any person who attacks here has to consider the consequences. When the time comes, we can notify the Japanese Metropolitan Police Department. They will definitely send someone over to protect this place's safety and preserve their reputation, as long as we ensure that our three-layer defense doesn't have any problems and doesn't let anyone with risks get close to Tavanna.'"

On the side, Mizuho immediately said: "Europa-san, I think Mr. Ye's plan is very good. We'll just set up defenses right here and follow Mr. Ye's instructions strictly, layer by layer, to ensure Tavanna's safety!"

Miazaki waved his hand dismissively, speaking calmly: "A bunch of Yamaguchi-gumi and a handful of unscrupulous gangsters can't even be bothered with this much trouble. I'll just give them a good scare and make them slink away!"

Mizuho quickly said: "Europa-san, those gang organizations aren't something that can be controlled so easily, ah!"

He had some reservations about Yamaguchi-gumi.

The Yamaguchi-gumi is Japan's largest and most influential organized crime group, with at least tens of thousands of members under its control. According to reports, in 2014, Yamaguchi-gumi's annual revenue reached $600 billion.

However, this calculation method is not scientific. The media intentionally inflates Yamaguchi-gumi's power by including all industries related to the group and their revenues, thus obtaining exaggerated figures.

For example, a Tokyo street controlled by Yamaguchi-gumi generates an annual value of over $100 million. However, if we consider this street as one of Yamaguchi-gumi's subsidiaries, the group would not even have 100% control over it, at most occupying only 60%.

Furthermore, this $100 million includes various costs such as real estate rental income, decoration and related expenses, water, electricity, and gas costs, salaries for thousands of small fry and above thousand hostesses, as well as medical fees for treating diseases in clinics.

In reality, Yamaguchi-gumi's revenue from this street is likely to be around $6 million. After deducting various visible and invisible costs, the net profit that can be turned over to the group's headquarters would be significantly reduced.

After all, there are hundreds or even thousands of people to be taken care of on this street alone, and the cost of supporting them already constitutes astronomical figures. Additionally, maintaining relationships with various parties also requires significant resources, so after deducting all costs, Yamaguchi-gumi can at most earn a few hundred thousand dollars in net profit.

On one hand, it's $100 million, and on the other, it's a few hundred thousand in profit. According to this ratio, Yamaguchi-gumi's annual net profit would be at most a few billion dollars.

However, Yamaguchi-gumi's strength lies in its ability to support tens of thousands of people, allowing them to live comfortably from small fry to high-ranking leaders while still earning billions in profit. These tens of thousands of people are like ants working tirelessly every day, even willing to sacrifice their lives to defend their anthill.

These tens of thousands of people are the fundamental foundation of Yamaguchi-gumi's unyielding stance.

However, even Yamaguchi-gumi is nothing but a black gang in front of the Mitsui family.

Although Mitsui Shigehiko is wary of their scale, in his eyes, Yamaguchi-gumi's 7th generation, i.e., Yoshida Hiroki, is just a small-time hoodlum who can't even get an invitation to a party. He can scold him like he's yelling at his driver, and Yoshida Hiroki doesn't dare say anything back or even raise his head.

Therefore, when he heard that Yoshida Hiroki had Yamaguchi-gumi kill Tavanna, he immediately became enraged with anger akin to being slighted by someone of lower social status.

Mitsui Ryotaro's younger brother quickly dialed Yoshida Hiroki's phone and asked, "Is this Yoshida?"

"It is," the middle-aged man on the other end of the line replied in a tone slightly respectful. "Mr. Mitsui, how did you come to think of calling me?"

Mitsui Ryotaro's younger brother spoke coldly, "It's not me looking for you; it's my big brother Mitsui Ryotaro looking for you."

On the side, Mitsui Ryotaro directly snatched the phone from his younger brother and began yelling at Yoshida Hiroki: "You're still alive? How dare you send someone to kill my guest, who is none other than my dear friend?"

"It's awkward for Yoshida Hiroki to cough on the other end of the line and ask, "Mr. Mitsui, we're after Tavanna, an American, and this person doesn't seem to have any connection to you?""

"Mitsui Ryotaro scolded, "Foolish! Tavanna is not only my guest but also a signee artist for Global Music, and as a shareholder of Global Music, I think you should know that there's a connection between us."" JrNovels.com
