Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era - Chapter 537
Chapter 537 Central Bank Independence, Financial Supervisory Office Establishment: More Violent Tempest
This world has Tao Zhiming, although the general trend has not changed, but the rhythm has obviously changed.
At least in neon.
After the arrest of Osami, the investigation spread to many banks and private financial institutions in Kansai.
A secret investigation team was dispatched before, and now the first major case in the financial system points to the financial system in Kansai, which is intriguing.
After the thunderstorm of Seibu Holdings, Kansai Film and Television New City and Kagura Town also came to the forefront.
Tao Zhiming didn’t care about the various things related to the big plan for the time being.
Iwasaki Ryunosuke, Horikawa Nobuhiko, Takagi Renhachi, Tsutsumi Yoshiaki, Li Jiacheng, as well as Mitsui, Sumitomo, the interests of so many people are closely related to this big plan, Tao Zhiming’s most important task has been completed more than half.
The interest rate meeting between the Ministry of Finance and Neon Bank was discussed about cutting interest rates.
After the interest rate hike from 1989 to 1990, Neon’s stock market collapsed, and now real estate is also collapsing.
But the reality is always so ironic.
Tao Zhiming heard some people who had not entered the core information circle express their concerns: “The bubble is being eliminated, and the reduction in real estate prices has caused a small number of people who have bought houses in the past two or three years to be dissatisfied. In fact, the majority of the public It is in favor of continuing to maintain austerity. If we are thinking of starting to cut rates now…”
“The people only saw the economic data released after months of accounting, and thought that the growth rate of 5.2% last year was the power of the tightening policy. But the situation is different now, the stock market has fallen to this level, real estate The market has also shrunk a lot, and there are loud calls for ‘resurgent bubble economy’!”
These people are right.
Up to now, Mie Yefu is both a hero and an evil spirit among the people.
As to where the stock market has reached the bottom, at 10,000 points, isn’t it already back before the Plaza Accord was signed?
In today’s Neon, people who speculated profitably, leveraged too much, and didn’t get out in time were so painful that they would commit suicide; and those who didn’t take the express train of the bubble economy before, they were looking forward to further declines in housing prices.
The reality is that reality, for people like Toshi Kaibe and Mie Nofu, it is never possible to please everyone at the same time.
“The results of the secret investigation of the financial system are shocking!” Mie Yefu suddenly raised his voice, “Now, the situation has indeed changed! However, it is absolutely impossible to reignite the bubble economy. Miyazawa-san, when did the Ministry of Finance start the secret investigation result in processing?”
Kiji Miyazawa looked at this “old rival”, now that he has entered the role, is he acting?
The result of the rate cut is certain, so to speak, what was promised to him should also be officially launched.
He thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: “The first step in dealing with the results of the secret investigation is to carry out legal and institutional reforms.”
Sane Ye raised his brows again: “What exactly do you mean?”
“Commercial Law, Anti-Monopoly Law, Banking Law, Insurance Law, Securities Law… Most importantly, the establishment of the Financial Supervisory Service with a higher authority, and the independence issue regarding Neon Bank.”
Everyone in the conference room suddenly raised their heads and looked at Miyazawa Kiji in amazement.
“Mie No-san, please stand on the standpoint of the central bank’s policy independence and give countermeasures to the current economic situation!”
Tao Zhiming watched with interest the two of them teasing and holding each other.
Taking advantage of the current situation, are you finally going to this step?
Mie Yefu took a deep breath, the goal pursued by generations of neon princes was imminent. But he was already standing higher, but he knew that the courage on his shoulders became heavier.
And, time is running out, and his term is nearly halfway there. The time left for myself is only a little more than three years.
“Rate cut, I agree!” His voice was sonorous, causing his eyes to refocus on him.
He, who has been calling for austerity policy, actually agrees that interest rates should be cut now.
“But it’s just to temporarily relieve the pressure on the financial system and buy them time to deal with risky debt.” Mie Yefu increased his voice, “At the same time, Neon Bank will officially announce the abandonment of the window guidance policy! And starting from next year, new For treasury bonds, Neon Bank will temporarily no longer promise to subscribe for shares.”
There is a lot of information, and everyone in the conference room is thinking about the role of these policies.
A rate cut is a release of vitality.
However, the window guidance is abandoned. At a time when the financial market and real estate market are very risky, banks will not have the central bank’s loan direction requirements. Of course, they will seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and temporarily tighten lending to these two directions.
New national debt, Neon Bank no longer promises to subscribe for shares, it can only be purchased by the private sector, which is equivalent to gathering more private liquidity. In this way, the financial market and the real estate market will have fewer channels for borrowing from private funds.
There is only one policy of releasing water, but there are two policies of pumping.
is exactly his position: the bubble economy cannot be reignited.
The Ministry of Tibet thinks it is useful to cut interest rates, so it will reduce it, but it must be supplemented by other austerity measures.
“What about the bank’s reserve ratio?” Kiji Miyazawa frowned, “In order to meet the requirements of the Basel Accord, major banks need to expand their own capital ratios. The overseas market has suffered setbacks, and the domestic market is now If the window guidance is abandoned under such a situation, it cannot just cut interest rates. The financial industry and real estate industry are shrinking now, and supporting other industries and cultivating new industries requires funds.”
“After the interest rate cut, there will be some people who are unwilling to save with low returns. The real estate and financial markets are now very risky, and the enthusiasm of private people to buy government bonds will be very high.” Mie Ye retorted, “So the issuance of government bonds does not need to rely on Ni. Hong Bank’s subscription. As for increasing the scale of currency issuance… Miyazawa-san, I know you want to mention this. Before the risky debt in the financial system is under control, it is absolutely impossible to increase currency issuance and stimulate the economy now. .”
Hearing this, Tao Zhiming knew that they had basically completed the negotiation and went through the “necessary procedures”.
Neon Bank officially launched an independent legal change, and Tibet Province also made preparations for solving bad debts in the financial system from the level of institutional reform and legislation.
Shanyu has already come. Legislation, institutional reform, and the establishment of a special financial supervision office will only make the next step more thorough, resolute, and violent.
This is the information that every consortium will interpret from it.
Some people, it’s time to panic even more.
After participating in the interest rate meeting as a special director of the Financial Research Center, Tao Zhiming approached Qiu Yuankang and planned to offer a gift for this special year.
“…Joining with TV Tokyo to hold a special concert and tour?” Akimoto Yasushi was a little confused.
“That’s right.” Tao Zhiming explained the concept to him, “Although it is up to us to decide what kind of works we create, we might as well consider this as a change that the client needs. You see, someone is already teaching others to save money, There are already so many people who have failed speculation in the past few years and are committing suicide. The number of layoffs and closures is increasing every day, and today’s clients need some works that can bring strength and encourage people’s hearts!”
”…But what you described, it seems that the lineup and specifications are very strong.” Not just a special concert that will be broadcast live on TV, but also a tour…
“Of course it has to be done vigorously.” Tao Zhiming said meaningfully, “Qiu Yuan-kun, this is also sharing the worries of the cabinet. In the process of popping the economic bubble, the pustule is pierced, which is very painful. These people are also Send a pessimistic message to others. In fact, life is like this, ups and downs. When the economic environment of an entire country adjusts, everyone will feel the pressure. Therefore, there will be a market for songs that encourage people’s hearts.”
“…You must already have some works, right?” Akimoto Yasushi is used to it. When he mentions something in particular, he must have already prepared it.
Tao Zhiming said with a smile: “Of course. This time, I have prepared 7 new songs. In addition to “myall” and “staygold” sung by Quan Shui before, Ming Cai’s “I once thought about it once, a hundred times”, a total of 10 songs , to form a WanderStar All-Star Inspirational Special.”
“7 new songs?!” Qiu Yuankang was excited, it was rare for him to come up with so many new songs at one time.
Especially this time, there is a clear theme, and it seems to be related to the needs of senior cabinet officials, so the ones that come out must be good works.
Tao Zhiming smiled slightly: “Call the production team.”
“…What about the singers?” Qiu Yuankang asked, “Is there a special designation to sing, or… Who is more suitable from my side?”
“This time, let’s make an exception.” Tao Zhiming patted him on the shoulder, “Since I handed over WanderStar to you to manage, this is the first time, and it should be the last time. All are called, and there are instruments. We will go to the Taoran number, and use this time to preliminarily complete the arrangement of this album and determine the singing method.”
“Huh?” Qiu Yuankang was surprised, “Is this a… vacation?”
“That’s right, consider it a creative vacation. I happen to be going to Hokkaido to do a little thing, and once I go, it’s almost done.”
“I understand!”
WanderStar has developed over several years, and now there are far more singers than there were before.
The handsome and talented president has not been here for a long time. Many newly signed artists and staff thought they would have a chance to talk with him, but he left after meeting with President Akimoto.
Then, Qiu Yuankang called some people for a meeting.
The new artists found that all the singers who went to the conference room were the first batch of signed singers.
Among them, there is another Miyazawa Rie who focuses on performance.
Miyazawa Rie is 18 years old this year, and her personality is no longer as stupid and a little cringe as she used to be.
In the club, she has a very good relationship with the two leading singers.
One is Sakai Izumi, Miyazawa Rie once lived with her for a long time.
One is Akina Nakamori. When Tao Zhiming committed suicide, he took Miyazawa Rie over there and used her as a negative teaching material to educate Miyazawa Rie.
“Sister Quan Shui, after the president came, the president called us for a meeting. What’s going on?”
Sakai Quanshui has a faint trance in his heart, so his eyes are also a little trance and doubt: “I don’t know.”
“Sister Akina, do you know?” Miyazawa Rie stretched her head forward again, and asked Nakamori Akina over the Sakai Springs.
“…Wait for the president to come.”
“Eh? Don’t you know? You have sung a lot of the songs written by the president!” Miyazawa Rie looked at the Sakai Izumi and pouted, “The president is partial!”
“…What nonsense, who sings now is decided by the president and the producers of the music department.”
Nakamori Akina looked at the Sakai Springs beside him, reached out and squeezed her hand: “What are you thinking?”
Sakai Izumi smiled and shook his head.
“Don’t be so worried all the time.” Nakamori Akina actually heard something, and then she could only sigh silently.
Who doesn’t have a snack?
But Akina Nakamori, who has experienced so many things, feels that it is not the way for Sakai Springs to continue like this.
If your mind is heavy, it is not good for your body.
Nakamori Akina came the year after Sawaguchi Yasuko changed his contract to WanderStar. After she came here, Tao Zhiming seldom asked about the daily management of WanderStar.
In terms of creation, it is only connected with the production team of the club.
This is not what she thought at first. In her impression, Tao Zhiming seems to be a person who likes to spend time with singers during the creative process.
Nakamori Akina is not “deeply in love” with Tao Zhiming. After experiencing Kondo Masahiko, she no longer takes love seriously.
It’s just that Tao Zhiming’s feeling of enlightening her at the beginning, as well as the songs he wrote, made Akina Nakamori feel that if she could work with him often, it would be a good life.
After coming to WanderStar, I did not feel this state.
According to the most active Miyi Asuka, it was not like this before, and it became what it is now after the recording of the promotional songs of “Memoirs of a Geisha”.
According to Nagumo Chiyo, who is well known to everyone, this change in state is probably related to Sakai Springs.
Akina Nakamori and Izumi Sakai were each thinking about their own thoughts, Rie Miyazawa, Chiyo Nagumo, and Asuka Miyuki whispered together, Shizuka Kudo, Sonoko Kawai, Takuya Kimura, Omimigo and others all came.
Then, Yasushi Akimoto and Keiji Nakamura, the head of the music production department, both entered the conference room.
“To gather everyone, I’m asking everyone to prepare together.” Akimoto Yasushi smiled, “Go on vacation, go on the super yacht of Mr. Chairman. From Tokyo, go to Hokkaido, and then come back!”
“Okay!” Meiyi Asuka shouted first, “Have you been on vacation for so many days? What about the announcement?”
“The society has negotiated with all parties.” Qiu Yuankang faced everyone with different expressions, “It’s not just playing. This time, the president has meticulously composed seven new songs! In addition to the three old songs before, the club There’s an all-star album planned. So, cheer up on your vacation and do your own song auditions while you play!”
Miyazawa Rie was stunned: “Lord President…I…”
She pointed to her nose: “I sing too?”
“That’s right.” Qiu Yuankang smiled, “Everyone was named by the president himself. Everyone, this will definitely be an album that will leave a name in the history of neon music! After this album is completed, there will be a new album. A special concert will be broadcast live by TV Tokyo, and in addition, the entire neon concert tour will be completed throughout the year next year.”
Nakamori Akina was stunned: “…does it have any special meaning?”
“Yes.” Akimoto Yasushi said sternly, “To a certain extent, the president was also requested by Jun Kaibe and other adults to create this album. The purpose of this album is to encourage everyone who is at a low point in life. People, bring strength to them. Do you understand? Seven new songs, I still don’t know what they are. But the president said, let me rest assured.”
He swept the crowd with anticipation and encouragement: “Everyone, get ready to create a new record in the history of neon music! ‘This is a song that young people can listen to repeatedly when you are old.’ , Master President said so!”
Sakai Quanshui stared at Qiu Yuanyao blankly.
In person…the roll call?
So, after all this time, did he… make a song just for himself again?
Although everyone has a share.
…
With the big mouth of Miyi Asuka and the small mouth of Rie Miyazawa, the news leaked quickly.
The seniors who signed up first had to attend the chairman’s super yacht holiday party collectively, and they also had to create an all-star album on the way. Some newcomers who had only signed in the past two years were drooling.
Real name envy!
Sakai Quan Shui was in a very anxious mood, looking forward to it, and wanted to avoid it.
He is a person who does what he says. Since that time he understood her intentions, he has never had a direct face-to-face with her.
It was only on occasions like the Red and White Song Festival, when he performed on stage, he knew that he was watching him offstage.
This time, it will be different. There are only so many people in total. As before, let’s personally guide the arrangement and singing of a certain song, especially the songs related to me.
The creation on the secret diary has long been completed. Although she sometimes wanted to open a sequel, she did not open it, and instead focused her attention on the creation.
Except for the music itself, it seems that no emotion about love can make her heart ripple again.
The place that was illuminated by someone who was too bright seems to be a little dimmed no matter what the situation is.
Unlike Sakai Izumi, who was in a complicated mood, Miyazawa Rie was so excited that she even called her mother who was still far away in Hokkaido: “I’m going to Hokkaido with the president, I’ll see you then!”
“…Rie-chan, what do you mean by being with the president?”
“…So, you haven’t given up yet?” Miyazawa Rie looked very speechless, “My job is very good now, and there are movies and TV dramas that can be filmed every year. Now, the president even let me start singing! He is really good for me, he was willing to spend money to train me in the first place, not because of what you think!”
“But you’re 18 now…”
“That’s why I said it, it’s not like that!” Miyazawa Rie asked impatiently, “Do you really want to leave that island? If you keep thinking this way, I won’t be able to tell the president!”
“I…” Mitsuwa Mitsuha already knew very well what kind of big man Tao Zhiming was, and he no longer dared to act rashly to ask his daughter to do something.
She also makes a lot of money.
But… Is there a better choice and destination than this?
He cultivated her at a high price, sent her to study, and gave her more opportunities… With Mitsuko Miyazawa’s head, he couldn’t think of any more explanations.
“Stop looking at you! It seems that you are only suitable for continuing to be there and changing your mind.” Miyazawa Rie, who did not grow up around Miyazawa Mitsuko, has grown into a different character.
After hung up the phone, she also quietly fell into a daze.
From an ignorant girl in her 10s to a big 18-year-old girl, in the most delicate years of her life, I really felt more and more the kindness of the president to me.
Miyazawa Rie was also secretly guessing that the president even asked himself to try singing. Do you really just think that singing can also help the club make money?
At the yacht pier in Tokyo Bay, Yuta Irie was directing the preparations for the voyage.
This time the journey is relatively long, and the ship’s food, fuel and various other reserves, including personnel, have to be arranged.
In addition, there are equipment related to music production to be installed.
Although there is a banquet hall on the ship, it is only a playback device, and there is no variety of musical instruments.
The elites of WanderStar’s music production department came very early, and Yuta Irie’s experience as WanderStar is familiar to many people.
After arriving at the pier, I saw WanderStar’s commercial vehicle approaching.
After getting out of the car, Meiyi Asuka cheered and opened her arms: “It’s so big! This yacht is really great, I’m going to the swimming pool!”
Walking up the deck from the gangway, she saw Yuta Irie, and she bowed with a smile on her face: “Yuta-sang, it’s even cooler! I heard that BravoAir is full of private jets and yachts, and the man most trusted by the president is not there. The club is reminiscing with us!”
The cold-hearted Yuta Irie has no experience in parrying vitality girls, and smiled shyly: “Don’t be kidding, I’m responsible for the safety of the president, where is there so much free time.”
“Yeah! Are you in charge of safety? Do you want to search?” Miyi Asuka raised her arms with a look of fear on her face.
“…long-winded, hurry up and put your luggage in the cabin!” Yuta Irie waved his hand.
Nakamori Akina, Kawai Sonoko, Kudo Shizuka and the others are much better, they just greeted politely.
Miyazawa Rie clearly saw that when he greeted Nagumo Chiyo and Sakai Izumi, his waist was more bent.
something wrong!
Seeing Miyazawa Rie, Irie Yuta showed a very special smile, like an elder seeing a child: “Rie-chan, you’ve grown a little taller.”
“…No! I’ve already been this tall.” Miyazawa Rie looked up, “Where’s the president? Haven’t you come yet?”
Ire Jiang Xiongta nodded: “The president has important work to do, and he will come when the sailing in the afternoon.”
The last person who came up was Qiu Yuankang, who nodded with Yuta Irie: “It’s hard work.”
At that time, Yosuke Ueno, Yosui Akayan, and Yuta Irie listened to Tao Zhiming’s future plans, and knew that they were both important figures in Tao Zhiming’s future power circle. When they met at this time, their attitude was much more relaxed.
“Does the President have any special explanations?” Qiu Yuankang asked.
Irie Xiongtai didn’t know what he was asking: “No, why do you ask that?”
“…Nothing.” Qiu Yuankang wanted to ask, such as their room arrangements.
“Oh!” Yui Irie thought about it too much and wanted to take out a few pieces of paper, “Master President said, if you arrive first, look at the lyrics of these songs and discuss how to polish it up.”
Qiu Yuankang lifted his spirits and joked: “Really, it was given to you instead of me first. Is this also part of the security and confidentiality work?”
Irie Xiong laughed too much and didn’t speak.
“Only lyrics, no sheet music?”
“…You know, isn’t the president always like this?” Yuta Irie replied, “But…there is a song that the president sang when the lady was here a few days ago.”
“Huh? Do you remember?”
“…Remember.” Irie Xiong felt bad, maybe he dug a hole for himself?
Isn’t that because that song is a bit magical brainwashing?
Sure enough, before Tao Zhiming came, the ruthless yakuza was pulled in front of everyone and asked to sing the song “A Laughing Dead” with the chorus “Hahahaha”.
“…Stop joking, I don’t sing!” Yuta Irie couldn’t hold this face down.
“The president wrote it here, this song is to be sung together by everyone!” Miyi Asuka was looking forward to it, “Good fun lyrics, Yuta-san, sing it!”
“I reject!”
“Let’s sing and listen…” Nagumo Chiyo was unhappy, “Really, if there is no announcement that day, I will come and play together.”
Sakai Izumi glanced at her silently, and looked down at the lyrics above, feeling a little embarrassed.
Do you want to sing such a joyful song?
Then, she turned to the new song that said the singer was Sakai Izumi.
“Don’t admit defeat”?
Next to , Yuta Irie still fell into the pit after all, and Scarface sang the brainwashing melody coldly and embarrassedly: “Hohohohohahahahahahahaha…”
After only two sentences, Meiyi Asuka laughed and covered her stomach: “Is this song poisonous? How did the president come up with such a melody? This style needs to be matched with a very funny dance, right? Yuta-sang…”
“I…I’m going to see the preparations in the cockpit!” Yuta Irie ran away.
“Yes, right? The president also skipped, right?” Miyi Asuka was still shouting from behind.
Irie Yuta has a headache.
He was a little scared, the whole thing written on it doesn’t include him, right?
Otherwise, it is better to cut the abdomen.
Too shameful.
This kind of thing should be done by Yang Shui!
