So, what's your name again?
0:05
>> Yoshi Taka Mina.
0:07
>> And uh how old are you, Mina?
0:11
>> Why?
0:12
>> JUST ANSWER THE QUESTION, MAN. YOU DIRTY
0:14
SOMETHING or something?
0:17
You talk smart, but you don't know
0:20
nothing, do you?
0:22
>> What makes you say that?
0:24
>> Uh, THE FACT THAT YOU DROPPED MONEY IN
0:26
FRONT OF A GUY like it was nothing. You
0:28
really think you could just buy
0:29
someone's trust like that?
0:31
>> I'm afraid you're mistaken. I thought no
0:34
such thing. But I do hope it
0:38
demonstrates my expectations.
0:41
>> Yeah, I got that much. Anyway, point is
0:46
I don't know a damn thing about you.
0:48
When meeting other Yakasa for the first
0:50
time, there's two things they want to
0:53
know. where you're from and what you
0:55
done.
0:57
>> Is that custom?
1:00
>> QUIT STALLING, MAN. NOW TALK. WHAT HAVE
1:03
YOU BEEN up to and where? Can't trust
1:05
you without knowing that much. Got it.
1:15
Well, then, if you insist.
1:19
Back in my 20s, I founded my own
1:21
company, a startup.
1:24
>> Oh, yeah. I I've heard of those. Must
1:28
have made bank.
1:29
>> I ran it myself, but mostly managing
1:32
assets,
1:34
>> buying and selling real estate, making
1:36
recessions work in our favor.
1:39
>> Hot damn. Then 10 mill is just a drop in
1:42
the bucket for you.
1:44
Well, guess that makes you one of them
1:46
corporate fat cats, don't it?
1:49
>> That's one way to put it, I suppose.
1:52
>> HUH. ENOUGH YAPPING, SMARTASS. I think I
1:54
got you pegged.
2:05
>> Hey.
2:06
>> Yes.
2:06
>> Say something already, will you? WHY THE
2:08
HELL DID YOU GO MUTE ON ME? Earlier you
2:11
said enough yapping, so I thought we
2:14
were done talking.
2:15
>> WELL, I'M BORED. I'M TAKING PRECIOUS
2:17
TIME OUT OF MY DAY TO ESCORT YOU MYSELF.
2:20
AT LEAST TELL ME A FUNNY STORY or
2:22
something, man.
2:23
>> A story, you say? A funny one. I have
2:27
this acquaintance, you see. One who'd
2:29
throw tantrums when he didn't get his
2:31
way. This man once lifted a vending
2:33
machine off the street and hurled it at
2:35
me in a fit of rage.
2:37
Certainly caught me by surprise.
2:40
>> The hell? He an ape OR SOMETHING? SOUNDS
2:42
LIKE A REAL ANIMAL. You need to watch
2:44
who you run with. BUT CAN'T SAY YOUR
2:47
EYES are all bad cuz you did go looking
2:49
to me for help.
2:52
>> You're too kind.
3:07
Listen here, Mina. Goes without saying,
3:10
but the Yakuza world is harsh. Real
3:13
harsh.
3:14
>> I'm aware.
3:16
>> No, you ain't. Boss says pigs fly, they
3:20
got [ __ ] wings. Going to level with
3:22
you. It's a crazy business.
3:25
At least you got coins, SO YOU DON'T GOT
3:28
TO start out on the bottom rung.
3:31
Actually, hear me out. Instead of
3:35
joining the family, how about you work
3:37
for me?
3:40
>> Work for you?
3:43
>> You got it. It'll be a hell of a lot
3:44
easier, too. Well, what do you say?
3:55
Come on. At least under me, YOU DON'T
3:58
GOT TO SWEAT ABOUT ALL THE ins and outs
3:59
of the business either. IT'S A WIN-WIN.
4:02
NOW, LET'S TURN ON THE MONEY FAUCET.
4:05
>> CONDESAN,
4:07
do you truly think it'd be wise to start
4:09
a new side hustle so soon after your
4:11
release?
4:13
>> What?
4:15
>> I apologize, but I looked into the
4:17
Nishkiama family's finances. What you
4:20
need right now above all else is
4:23
solidarity.
4:26
Were you to bypass your boss and enlist
4:28
me? Well, wouldn't that be considered
4:32
betrayal?
4:34
>> Been snooping around, have you?
4:37
>> It's only natural to research a
4:39
potential employer.
4:42
>> Uh-huh. Enough yapping, smartass. We're
4:45
almost there.
4:46
>> Gondon,
4:48
you go blabbing about this and it's your
4:50
[ __ ] head. If you know what's good
4:53
for you, keep your trap shut.
5:05
Yo,
5:10
>> get on.
5:45
I see.
5:47
So, you're the chairman of a startup
5:49
company.
5:54
Acting
6:02
patriarch, hear me out. MINA HERE IS
6:05
REAL GOOD AT RAKING IN THE CASH. With
6:08
him around, we'll be rolling in the
6:09
dough in no time.
6:16
And he did bring us quite the gift.
6:22
All right, fine.
6:25
Ganda,
6:27
you show him the ropes.
6:30
>> Can do. I'll keep an eye on him.
6:33
>> Condon, first things first. I'd like a
6:36
more in-depth analysis of the Nishkiama
6:39
family's financial state.
6:40
>> Why is that?
6:42
>> I mean, no offense, but I believe we're
6:45
overdue for some restructuring.
6:53
You want to buy up Kawada Building 3.
6:57
>> Correct. It's a key component in
6:59
expanding our money-making operation.
7:02
>> Oh, yeah. How's that? Cuz we ain't going
7:05
to get jacked from the tenants. Nothing
7:07
but shady massage parlors and shitty
7:10
ramen shops here.
7:12
>> That may be, but Club Gold Panther is
7:15
planning to open a second location. And
7:17
this building just so happens to be in
7:20
the perfect spot.
7:22
>> No [ __ ] YOU AIN'T [ __ ] with me,
7:24
right?
7:26
>> Not at all. First, we buy the rights to
7:28
the property. Then after that, we tear
7:31
it all down and sell the land. The club
7:34
owner is also on board with the idea.
7:37
>> But ain't that Furuk Kane family turf?
7:40
THEY FLY TOJO COLORS, TOO. Just under
7:43
the Rickyishi clan.
7:45
Yes, I'm well aware of that.
7:48
>> OH, ONLY YOUR FIRST DAY OF work and
7:51
you're already planning on starting a
7:53
civil war.
7:55
>> Of course not. I plan on negotiating
7:58
with them to prevent one. It's called
8:01
M&A.
8:03
>> MMA
8:05
>> M and A will merge with and acquire the
8:07
Furuk Kane family. In doing so, the
8:10
transactions with the club will proceed
8:12
smoothly.
8:13
Not only that, but will obtain other
8:16
Furukane properties as well. My research
8:19
tells me that several of them are of
8:21
considerable value. However, they hardly
8:25
turn a profit as a result of poor
8:27
management. The Furukane family is
8:29
sitting on a gold mine.
8:32
Make no mistake, were I in charge, I
8:35
would triple their revenue in no time.
8:38
Well, THAT SOUNDS FINE AND DANDY, but I
8:40
doubt they'll be chomping at the bit to
8:42
join us.
8:44
>> They simply need an incentive, which is
8:46
why we'll offer to lower their tribute
8:48
payments. Those savings will see their
8:52
income skyrocket.
8:54
I hardly see a downside.
8:56
Their parent organization might take
8:58
issue, but they're no fighters and weak.
9:01
Besides, the Ricky Isishi clan wouldn't
9:04
dare challenge us. THEN IT ALL COMES
9:07
DOWN TO SAVING FACE. No Yakuza in his
9:10
right mind would ditch his boss to line
9:12
his own pockets. No honor in that. I
9:16
still can't see them all gung-ho to swap
9:19
families.
9:22
Honor, you say?
9:26
That won't be a problem. I have another
9:29
card I can play.
9:43
Heat. Heat.
