Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era - Chapter 543
Chapter 543 The real bastard
The **** is really a shameless bastard.
Before getting on the plane, Tao Zhiming expressed his sincerity to Sakai Izumi. After taking a private plane from Shikoku to Osaka overnight, he arrived at the hotel where Riko Fukaya lived and waved a small whip.
And the next day, I have to take Fukaya Pear to Haruka Haru.
Horikawa Nobuhiko was naturally waiting there, and this time, he brought Itochu Kobei with him.
After visiting the shrine, I saw Mrs. Horikawa Nobuhiko who came out to pay respects. Itochu Kobei asked, “Why did your wife move here to live here?”
Nobuhiko Horikawa hid his emotions in his heart, looked at the back of his wife leaving, and said to Itochu Yukibei: “In order to express the importance of President Tao’s cooperation with us.”
Itochu Kobei thought for a while, and suddenly confirmed: “Because of Takizo?”
“That’s right.” Nobuhiko Horikawa, who was the first to hug Itochu Yukibei’s thigh, answered first, “You know, Takisan was my adopted brother. Then, that child Haruka is my niece, and Haruka has met Tao. After the president, I fell in love with him. Since I already have this level of relationship, it is also part of my selfishness to let my wife live here more and cultivate more feelings with Haruka.”
Itochu Kobei regards him as his “loyal subordinate” and only feels normal to this kind of operation.
But another thing deserves more attention: “Wait a minute after President Tao arrives, do you really call Miyazawa-san directly?”
“If President Tao really wants to convey such a hint through Fukaya Riko, of course we have to confirm his energy and strength.”
Itochu Kobei’s eyes were eager to try, kicking out the two most incompetent and greedy people on the board of directors, the rewards were too rich.
The two continued the plan they started last night. At about ten o’clock, Tao Zhiming arrived with Fukaya Riko and Ueno Yosuke.
Seeing Itochu Kobei, Tao Zhiming looked a little surprised, and said while bowing: “Pear did report some new situations to me, and Itochu-san also came over to explain the situation in person? I am really moved by this importance.”
Hearing him talk about those new bad debts as soon as he opened his mouth, Itochu Kobei only felt that Horikawa Nobuhiko’s analysis was indeed correct.
The tone is polite and respectful, but the content is tricky. He really wanted to take advantage of the topic and put forward new conditions, right?
After sitting down, Itochu Kobei said: “I am really ashamed. In recent months, due to the continuous deterioration of the economic environment, a large number of clubs have gone bankrupt, and the scale of bad debts has rapidly expanded. Of course, I came here in person and apologized to President Tao. Meaning. In this process, there are indeed some new bad debts, which are caused by the greed of some people. This is a mistake in our work, and I am deeply sorry.”
“Do you take the initiative to create some new bad debts? That’s understandable.” Tao Zhiming smiled, but he didn’t seem to care, “If there wasn’t this bad debt crisis, I’m afraid I wouldn’t have such a chance to become the No. 1 Quanye Consortium. Major shareholder. However, the scale of bad debts in front of me has expanded by more than 200 billion yen, and the scale of funds that I need to invest immediately after I join in is much larger. Those who caused this situation, don’t they worry that their shares will be recaptured? Dilute?”
Itochu Kobei saw that he really said that, and tried it out: “President Tao, do you want to change the conditions that were negotiated before?”
Tao Zhiming smiled: “Itochu-san, I have to find a way to mortgage a lot of assets, and prepare 750 billion yen to be used as the first batch of funds to be injected into the First Commercial Bank. Now there are more than 200 billion yen of new bad debts. , then how much extra time and energy do I have to spend after joining to help First Quanye Bank become profitable again? How long will it take for this investment to return to its original capital?”
“…President Tao is overthinking it. With President Tao’s influence, as long as the news of becoming a major shareholder of Daiichi Quanye Bank is announced, the stock price of Daiichi Quanye Bank will immediately start to soar…” Itochu Kobei Keep trying.
“So since I hope to use my influence to take the initiative, and I hope that I can spend so much money now, I have to lay down more obstacles for everyone’s cooperation?” Tao Zhiming smiled warmly, “With this influence With such a large amount of money, why can’t I choose a better partner? There is more than one consortium that has a bad debt crisis, right?”
Horikawa Nobuhiko said: “Itochu-san, although Abe-san and Miyazawa-san have confirmed the follow-up opinions on the disposal of debt risks in the financial system, it cannot be assumed that President Tao wants to become a shareholder of a large consortium. This matter still needs to be frank. President Tao…”
He looked at Tao Zhiming and bowed: “This is also my poor management. After all, the First Quanye Consortium is very large. At this tense moment, I didn’t pay attention to everything. Some directors think this is an opportunity. , with their status, they have affected many branches and middle-level managers, which has resulted in the current situation.”
Tao Zhiming said indifferently: “Although I can understand this kind of thinking, but because I know that I intend to inject capital into the First Quanye Bank, I took the initiative to cause such a large-scale new bad debt. Reconsider whether to sit at the same board meeting table with such a person. If we can’t work together and slowly digest those bad debts, the problems of the First Quanye Consortium will only get bigger and bigger.”
After expressing his attitude, Tao Zhiming said to Itochu Kobei again: “Although I am sorry to say so, but Itochu-san, in the future financial system’s debt crisis resolution plan, the current performance of the First Quanye Consortium is really not wise. A little short-sighted.”
Itochu Kobei frowned, saying this is rude.
Tao Zhiming said sternly: “There are no outsiders here, let’s just say it directly. The scale of risky debts in the entire financial system will be nearly 40 trillion yen this year. If you look at the time to 3 years, the scale will exceed 100 trillion yen. With the current economic development situation, bad debts of 100 trillion yen will be enough to break the myth that big banks will not go bankrupt. This means that there will be big financial groups withdraw from the stage of history.”
Itochu Kobei looked at him, only to feel that this young man was very powerful in front of him.
There was doubt in Tao Zhiming’s eyes, and Itochu Kobei also naturally interpreted it as contempt.
“Even if the Daiichi Kanye Foundation is listed as a target to be protected in future plans because of the relationship between Miyazawa-san and Abe-san, how can it be taken for granted so laxly? This is a revolution! Even if it is in the future The one who is protected is the one who grasps the opportunity, and it also needs to go through a painful purification to remove impurities before ushering in a new life, right?”
This is a typical example of “give you a chance and you won’t use it”. Obviously, there is an opportunity to stand on the stronger side in the consortium war, but the directors use this opportunity to enrich their own pockets.
So Tao Zhiming laughed: “In order to avoid misunderstanding between Itochu-san and Horikawa-san, I have to clarify something.”
“…What’s the matter?” Itochu Kobei asked.
Tao Zhiming put away his smile and said coldly, “I am not Miyazawa-sang’s tool in order to solve the debt crisis of the financial system in the future, and my funds and influence are not necessary because of Miyazawa-sang’s arrangement. “
After that, he indifferently instructed Yosuke Ueno: “Yosuke, please contact Miyazawa-san.”
Itochu Kobei’s eyebrows jumped. Before he could contact him, he actually asked to contact him first?
And the current atmosphere doesn’t seem to be very good, he looks very dissatisfied.
The phone went straight through, Yosuke Ueno confirmed that it was Kiji Miyazawa, and handed the phone to Tao Zhiming.
Briefly talking about the current situation, Tao Zhiming said in a calm voice: “Master Miyazawa, if the directors of the First Persuasion Consortium have always been like this, even if you are successfully elected president and prime minister this time, but The crisis in the future may be even greater.”
Itochu Kobei saw that he heard a few words, then looked at himself and said, “Yes, Itochu-san and Horikawa-san are both here.”
After saying that, the mobile phone was handed over.
Itochu Kobei answered the phone with both hands and whispered, “Miyazawa-san?”
“Itochu-san!” Miyazawa Kiji’s tone was very dissatisfied, “What President Tao said is true?”
“…It’s true, some people are really not very good.” Itochu Kobei naturally excluded himself.
“Stupid! Nonsense!” Miyazawa Kiji scolded two words over there as if he couldn’t hold back his anger, and then adjusted his tone, “To deal with the debt risk of the financial system, you need a very systematic plan, and you need to be the first to persuade business. The consortium has cooperated very strongly! I managed to convince President Tao, how can you be so short-sighted?”
“…Some people are indeed…” Itochu Kobei looked at Tao Zhiming suspiciously, “But… persuade?”
“Let’s be honest.” Miyazawa Kiji said to the secretary on the phone to go out and look at the door before lowering his voice, “If it wasn’t for Iwasaki-san’s actions two years ago, President Tao would naturally only be close to Sumitomo and Mitsui. Cooperation. Let them have more sufficient financial preparation and strength, and the strong will beat the weak, and the odds of winning are of course greater! But from our standpoint, we don’t want to see the power imbalance between the consortiums!”
Itochu Kobei understood.
Indeed, with these 750 billion yen, don’t Sumitomo and Mitsui welcome the addition of Tao Zhiming, the “God of Finance”? Not only will the stock prices of the major clubs in the consortium system be guaranteed, but there will also be more sufficient funds as ammunition in the consortium war.
But doesn’t this mean that Tao Zhiming had to cooperate with the First Quanye Foundation because of Miyazawa Kiji’s request?
He knew very well that although the First Quanye Consortium had the largest apparent assets, it was even more puffy.
This is just the result of rapid expansion, not real hard power.
Therefore, in the face of the balance of power between the consortiums, Tao Zhiming cooperated with the “weakest” consortium, and Itochu Kobei himself felt the same way.
Miyazawa Kiero paused and continued: “The year before last year when Iwasaki-san made the surprise attack, Sumitomo and Mitsui did have the intention of suppressing or even annexing President Tao. But now the situation has changed! His influence on the market, and his own Strength, there are enough bargaining chips! Now, instead, he chose to support me and let Sumitomo, Mitsui, and Mitsubishi pay more attention to his status, and then chose to cooperate with the First Quanye Consortium!”
After a pause, he added: “If you still don’t understand, then say it more clearly! When the final election within the party is finalized, President Tao’s goal at this stage will be achieved. Cooperation intentions can also be used as bargaining chips for negotiations with Sumitomo, Mitsui and Mitsubishi! Don’t you know the results of the secret investigation team? Among the six major consortiums, and now the Quartet alliance, only your No. 1 Quanye Consortium is the most vulnerable. Yes! If you continue to be so unscrupulous, don’t you worry that the Quartet Alliance will become a tripartite alliance?”
Itochu Kobei’s heart suddenly burst: “What… what did you say?”
“Abe-san’s health is getting worse and worse!” Kiji Miyazawa reminded in a low voice, “Although I hope you will continue to be my supporters in the future, when I take over as prime minister, if you really act recklessly like this , don’t blame me for choosing to cut off those rotten flesh for the overall consideration of the neon economy!”
Itochu Kobei was in shock, and heard Kiji Miyazawa say: “Next month, my era will begin! This is the last chance. Before I formally implement the financial system rectification, I will turn around the Daiichi Kanye Foundation as soon as possible. The debt problem! Return the phone to President Tao!”
Tao Zhiming looked at him with a half-smile but not a smile, took the phone and laughed after listening to a few words: “Please don’t worry Miyazawa-san, Abe-kun is on his way to Kyoto. As for Hashimoto-san, you don’t have to. Worry. After the two of them meet tonight, you should get a positive answer from Abe-san.”
After a few polite words again, he hung up the phone and handed it to Yosuke Ueno.
Itochu Kobei couldn’t help but ask: “Abe-kun? Hashimoto-san?”
“Abe-san’s son, Abe Shinjiu-kun.” Tao Zhiming replied flatly, “In the evening, a meeting between him and Hashimoto-san was arranged. Neon Bank for International Cooperation is an important measure for the cabinet to deal with the impact of the debt crisis in the next few years. , is a very good training platform. Abe-kun is still young, after taking over the position of Abe-san, it will be smooth sailing with Hashimoto-san to exercise.”
Itochu Yukibei set off a storm in his heart.
Abe Taro is seriously ill, and I’m afraid he won’t survive this year. His son, after inheriting the seat of the Abe family, is he going to officially step into the cabinet?
Although he is too young to be a cabinet minister directly, but he will train with Hashimoto Taro?
Hashimoto Taro worshipped Ueda Masahiro as a kendo master, and everyone knows his relationship with Tao Zhiming.
Saying so, Tao Zhiming made Hashimoto Taro give up this election first and support Miyazawa Kiji through this operation. And almost everyone knows that Hashimoto Taro is ready to go. This time, I gave up the selection. After the Anzhugiya era is over, which new generation in the party is more competitive than Hashimoto Taro?
If you start to cultivate the foundation from now on, Abe Shinkyu’s future can also be expected. There is a high probability of fulfilling his father’s unfulfilled last wish, and one day he will become president and prime minister.
Abe Taro, who may die soon, will fully support Kiji Miyazawa even for the future of his son.
So, because of Tao Zhiming’s threading, Kiji Miyazawa is likely to be stable.
Itochu Kobei looked at the extremely young Tao Zhiming.
He is less than thirty years old, and he has already paved the way for the current prime minister, the next prime minister, and even potential candidates in ten or twenty years.
It’s not that he needs to obey Miyazawa Kiji, it’s Miyazawa Kiji who asks him.
The Democratic Liberal Party is in a lot of crisis right now. If faced with the current economic situation and cannot come up with an effective solution in the debt crisis, the House of Representatives will be re-elected in the next year, and its ruling position will be worrying.
In order for the policy to be effective, it is inseparable from the support of the big financial groups and the concerted efforts of the big factions in the party.
Now, this faint thread turns out to be Tao Zhiming.
He even guides the direction of the neon political situation!
Is this the right way to use your talents and funds?
Thinking of this, Itochu Kobei looked at Horikawa Nobuhiko, and when he saw him nodding, he said in a deep voice, “President Tao, I understand your opinion. Then, let’s talk about how to solve the current problem.”
“Itochu-san has any suggestion?”
Itochu Kobei’s eyes were full of light: “People who are too greedy are really not suitable to stay in the consortium. Otherwise, the danger of the First Quanye Consortium will only increase!”
Tao Zhiming said with a leisurely smile: “That’s the truth. Let’s discuss the general strategy first. After Abe-kun arrives in Kyoto, we will discuss the situation according to the situation. Whether the First Quanye Consortium can participate in Hashimoto-sang will lead the realization soon. a transnational collaboration.”
“Transnational cooperation?” Horikawa Nobuhiko was also a little surprised.
Tao Zhiming glanced at him: “I heard that Horikawa-san brought winter clothes to his wife? The shrine in winter is not suitable for older people to recuperate, or it is better to stay at home or in a warmer place.”
Horikawa Nobuhiko moved in his heart, is this so that he can arbitrarily arrange where his family goes, or he has new arrangements.
Tao Zhiming has explained to Itochu Kobei again: “Among the clients who purchased real estate at the Gate of Heaven, there is a friend of Prince Hasar and Prince Alwaleed. The other party has a distinguished identity and is Jeffrey of the Levin royal family. The prince is also Levin’s Minister of Finance and Investment Director. Neon Bank for International Cooperation has led a multinational oil-related cooperation, and Neon needs a general trading company as a partner.”
ITOCHU Kobei’s heart skipped a beat. Isn’t ITOCHU Corporation the core general trading company of the Daiichi Kanye Foundation?
And Levine and Oyalt are both rich countries because of oil.
This is probably a big cooperation planned by the cabinet for oil security after the war in Iraq at the beginning of the year.
The meaning of Tao Zhi’s order is already obvious: After talking to me, ITOCHU can participate in this cooperation.
Because the so-called Neon International Cooperation Bank took the lead… This matter is Hashimoto Taro in charge, and the Oylt royal family and the Levin royal family are undoubtedly related to Tao Zhiming.
After all, he and the Oyalt royal family have trade orders of hundreds of millions of meters each year, everyone knows that there is no shortage of them every year.
And that Prince Jeffrey is also a proprietor of his gate to heaven.
So this matter, he is actually leading the way, right?
Horikawa Nobuhiko interpreted another meaning.
For his efforts, he was very satisfied that he was able to bring Itochu Kobei over to conspire today.
And that Prince Jeffrey, Horikawa Nobuhiko knew what kind of character he was.
I know better that some of Watanabe’s handles are related to Prince Jeffrey.
From the official pre-sale of Heaven’s Gate after his wedding, every time that Prince Geoffrey comes to Neon, he must need a woman.
These things, after the twists and turns, were actually arranged by Watanabe on the Kansai side, not the Inagawa Society.
Is the foreshadowing so deep? The plan really started, because he knew that the general attack on Watanabe was about to start, followed by the piles of scandals that swept the three major financial groups.
This is obviously an old style where one thing needs to achieve several effects. I have cooperated with his strategy as scheduled, so that he has begun to release his trust in himself, and has lifted the restriction that he needs to arrange his family to live here first. .
It seems that the broader overseas market he promised himself at the beginning is true.
is to let the Daiichi Quanye Foundation participate in this cooperation, not Sumitomo, Mitsui and Mitsubishi, which is of course part of his continued cultivation of strength.
Inside the First Quanye Consortium, he is still inseparable from Nobuhiko Horikawa.
At least for a few years!
Although Takagi Renhachi is a general manager, he cannot control all the old forces after all!
…
Abe Shinkyu called his father as soon as he arrived in Kyoto.
“Father, how are you feeling now?”
On the phone, Abe Taro’s voice was very tired and lacking in breath: “Don’t worry about me, go meet Hashimoto-san as soon as possible. In addition, you must respect President Tao very much. How your future can be depends on the big board. Does Hashimoto-san appreciate you, but the wallet… President Tao’s strength is bottomless.”
“I understand.” After thinking about it, Shinkyu Abe advised, “Father, even if you don’t have the chance anymore, it’s time to relax and recuperate. Please trust your son, don’t worry too much…”
“No mother-in-law!” Abe Taro scolded, and said, “In the past few years, I have been supported by will. Now, because of relaxation, my physical condition is getting worse and worse. Remember me. If you say it, go now!”
It seems that he must also worry about his son, so that his health will not deteriorate further due to further relaxation of his will.
Abe Shinkyu hung up the phone and quietly said to the driver, “Go to Azuchi Castle.”
When he set off, Taro Hashimoto had just finished meeting with Jinhachi Takagi.
Takagi Jinhachi, who is now “representing” Nobuhiko Horikawa in handling matters related to the Hachiman Research Association, is tasked with helping Taro Hashimoto coordinate the position of the Komei Party.
“Lord Hashimoto, please rest assured.” Takagi Jinhachi bowed, “About those bills, there will be no problem with the Komeito side.”
Hashimoto Taro didn’t take it lightly, and bowed his body: “Please. After Miyazawa-san takes office, I will take up the post of Minister Ozo again. With a cabinet position, the level of attention I receive will be different.”
“I understand, I will get in touch with Abe-kun.”
Watching his car slowly leave, Takagi Renhachi stood there for a while before turning around and returning to Hachimangu Shrine.
Then, he made a phone call and indifferently instructed: “President Xiaolin, have you been paying attention?”
“Yes, Takagi-sama.”
Takagi Jinba nodded: “Let’s start, Prince Jeffrey will come to Neon early next month. As long as Watanabe meets with Kobayashi Naoki again, if there is an arrangement, he will launch an assault.”
The big people over there are meeting, and a big net covering many people in Kansai has quietly fallen.
The economic situation is not good, and Naoki Kobayashi of Hankyu Electric Railway has been uncomfortable for more than a year.
Participated in the new film and television city in Yahata, Kyoto, and now encounters the collapse of the real estate market. Although it is a good industry in the long run, it is not easy right now.
In so many industries, in addition to the better performance of Toho, which is a stake in Pantao Films, other industries are only the line operation of Hankyu Electric Railway itself, because more and more people are no longer willing to take a taxi. Instead, it increased a bit.
He who runs the Takarazuka Song and Dance Troupe has always had a gray income, which was accomplished through Yamaguchi-gumi.
That is of course about the income of those young, beautiful and talented girls.
This is not the low-end custom business of Yamaguchi-gumi, but a more secretive but lucrative business: providing top-of-the-line experiences to those who are truly big.
After receiving contact from Watanabe Nori, Kobayashi Naoki met him in a secret place.
“Prince Jeffrey will come to Neon early next month.” Watanabe went straight to the topic, “This time, he will definitely hold a party in Tokyo again, and maybe even bring some people back to Levin, or arrange it in London.”
…
At this moment, Prince Jeffrey was in London in the country of Poppy, and was teased by another rich friend: “The price of Neon’s real estate has dropped so much, and your investment in Neon has lost so much, and you have to go there and that Tao continue to talk about cooperation?”
“Investment has always been a combination of risks and opportunities, and the focus cannot be on the short term.” Jeffrey, in his 40s, was in his prime, and his angular facial features were also very attractive, with a smile on the corners of his mouth. The champagne glass was raised, “Why are you talking about these things when you come to me? Are the ladies in my place not hot?”
“How come? The party in your manor has always been the most charming.”
In this large villa, the fire in the fireplace is now burning extremely vigorously.
Although it’s almost winter, it’s still autumn after all. The temperature in the villa was made so high, just to make the room full of women from all over the world dress wanton.
The rhythm was swaying, Jeffrey clapped his hands, and his servant rolled out a cart with a nine-tiered cake made of cream.
At the top of the cake, the top of the chocolate tower has a large sparkling diamond, which is several carats.
“Girls!” Geoffrey stood there with open arms, “Don’t be restrained! Now, let’s get your bodies slathered with delicious cream. We all love sweet angels, so whoever gets the most taste, this one The diamonds are hers!”
Then blinked again: “Tonight, the one who is most praised by my friends will also get a supercar.”
All of a sudden, dresses fell on the hot villa floor. In a blink of an eye, dozens of girls in the room all swayed their wonderful bodies towards the big cream cake, smearing their skins of various colors white and smooth. stand up.
The men laughed and looked at this beautiful group portrait that became like a moving sculpture.
Jeffrey is quite proud of his masterpiece: “To make my guests feel good, we have to compete! We can’t eat a few mouthfuls of sweet cream.”
So the white sculptures began to become enchanting, competing to show off their demeanor.
The women who have given up their self-respect and are willing to come to places like this, every one wants their cream coats to be stripped off as soon as possible.
In this case, that big diamond and that supercar will belong to you.
