Another side.
Tang Qing hung up the phone.
Indeed, just as Maruyama Takeshi had guessed.
On both sides.
It could truly be said to be "one of our own", on one hand due to the relationship with the Ge Family of the United States, and on the other, Maruyama Clan was an entity within Tang Qing's consortium's plan that could be brought on board.
Add to that the status of Maruyama Takeshi's mother.
A triple relationship.
Saying they were "one of our own" was not an overstatement. At present, the fighters over there had not yet made contact with Maruyama Takeshi, but it was only a matter of time. By the end of the year, Japan's consortia would formally establish themselves.
Now was the preparation and development stage.
South Korea would be even later than this, as the consortia of the two countries were deeply entrenched. To stir up a good game within such a stronghold was an art.
It couldn't be accomplished overnight.
Taking advantage of the financial crisis of these two years.
