Reborn In the Tokyo Bubble Era

   Chapter 492 Besieged Tao Dalang

   No matter what the outside world is talking about at this time, but after the broadcast of that episode, the film crew of "Memoirs of a Geisha" was officially established.

   And Pantao Yinghua announced a high-profile investment of 50 million yuan. According to the real-time exchange rate at this time, it has exceeded the total investment of 7 billion yen, setting a record.

   At this point, no neon movie has ever had this amount of investment. At this time, the film "Heaven and Earth" directed by the president of Kadokawa Shoten has just refreshed this figure, and the investment has reached a huge amount of 5 billion yen.

   "Memoirs of a Geisha" increased this record by as much as 50% in one fell swoop, and the raging public opinion even set fire to fire.

   So the Special Investigation Department of the Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office immediately added another investigation point: Is there any suspicion of money laundering for such a large investment?

  When the people from the special search department arrived at Pantao Film and Toho, the next step in the film and television shooting base in Kyoto was also investigated.

   On the other side of Kansai, Naoki Kobayashi of Tokyu Electric Railway was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he found Nobuhiko Horikawa in a panic. I don't know how they talked, and then Kobayashi Naoki didn't care about it anymore, and concentrated on his plan for the renovation of Sijotong Old Street.

   On the Tokyo side, the board of directors of Sanyou Investment Bank did meet in advance.

  Takagi Renhata came here specially, and the atmosphere in the conference room was very depressed.

   He looked at Ryunosuke Iwasaki, the current owner of the Iwasaki family sitting there calmly, as if he was just listening.

   And Sumitomo's Anzai Zenwei and Mitsui's Nojima Tatsuo were both absent-minded.

  Takagi Renhachi knows why, because of this sudden incident, the boards of the two major consortiums seem to have started elections ahead of schedule. If we go according to the original plan, the two people who are closely related to Tao Dalang should be the best candidates for the next president. But now, things have changed.

  Tao Zhiming sat at the table, watching one by one.

When    met his eyes, Takagi Renhachi could only return a helpless and solemn wry smile.

   After a while, Tao Zhiming spoke first. He sighed: "Everyone, maybe this is the last board meeting of Sanyou Investment Bank. Let me report to you first. Because of the incident in Weekly Bunchun, Sanyou Investment Bank entrusted the funds for wealth management in Onodera Wealth Management. Earnings have also been counted.”

  Since Tao Zhiming used the funds of Sanyou Investment Bank to make a lot of money at one time, Sanyou Investment Bank has set a rule of taking a fixed share to increase wealth through Onodera.

   But this time, at least in Takagi's view, Tao Zhiming was going to use this incident as a tool to test the attitudes of all parties. The opening is the so-called "last board meeting", and it seems that the situation is very clear, and it is serious to say a showdown.

Just listen to him say lightly: "This is the situation last month. The profit situation is 87.35% higher than the usual month due to the changes in the market caused by the interest rate hike last month and the listing of the National Railway Third Branch. Let me ask bluntly: Do I need to suspend the cooperation with Onodera Fortune in advance like other private equity clients?”

  The meeting room was extremely silent, and Takagi Jinhachi didn't need to express his opinion. Although No. 1 Persuade Bank said that it "joined" the plan of the Sanyou Consortium, it is only in the "observation period", and will not really enter until the next capital increase.

   At this moment, Anzai Shanwei said solemnly: "Dalang, in order to avoid being affected by the investigation of the special investigation department, let's temporarily suspend it."

   "Oh?" Tao Zhiming's mouth twitched slightly, appearing slightly sarcastic, "If the Special Search Department is really interested in the whereabouts of Sanyou Investment Bank's funds, is it meaningless to withdraw from Onodera's wealth?"

   "...Sorry, but the board of directors has made a clear decision on this matter." Anzai Shanwei sighed, "Dalang, please understand."

   "Nojima-san, what's your opinion?"

  Nojima Tatsuo did not speak, but apparently agreed with Sumitomo.

  Tao Zhiming nodded, then looked at Sen Zhang again: "What did the Sen family say?"

   "The share of Mori Trust is very low." Mori Zhang said lightly, as if the Mori family's statement was irrelevant. However, it also seems to reveal the meaning of too few shares.

  Tao Zhiming finally looked at Iwasaki Ryunosuke: "Iwasaki-san, what's your opinion?"

Iwasaki Ryunosuke glanced at him quietly, and then said lightly: "The Iwasaki family joined the structure of Sanyou Investment Bank because of the real estate trust charitable fund. Now the funds entrusted by the real estate trust charitable fund to Onodera Wealth are being The audit investigation is conducted by a third party, and until the results there come out, it is not appropriate to expand the workload of the follow-up audit. Therefore... I also agree to temporarily suspend the cooperation between Sanyou Investment Bank and Onodera Wealth."

  Takagi Renhachi is very clear, Iwasaki Ryusuke now has 10% of the shares, the weight is not too heavy.

   For a while, except for Ueda Masahiro and Kinoshita Xiufeng who didn't make a statement, Tao Zhiming seemed to be in a situation of embarrassment in front of this table.

  Tao Zhiming was silent, Takagi Renhachi couldn't see what his emotions were, but the silence itself already represented some kind of anger.

   When he was about to say something, Kinoshita Xiufeng suddenly said, "Dalang... that's it."

  Tao Zhiming looked at him suddenly, his eyes couldn't help showing shock, confusion and anger.

  Takagi Jinba thought to be good, don't tell me...

Sure enough, Kinoshita Xiufeng took the lead and patted the table and said, "But! We must decide on the withdrawn funds at the same time today! Sanyou Investment Bank temporarily purchased the floor of the Gate of Heaven, which will serve as the headquarters until the special headquarters building is built. Use, this matter has to be decided at the same time!"

   Tao Zhiming's face looked better, but his face was still sinking, but his eyes also turned to Anzhai Shanwei and Nojima Tatsuo.

   Ueda Masahiro has been quietly looking at the table in front of him, his hands resting on his thighs, and he sits firmly.

   There is no way, these guys are all acting, and he can't act, so he can only try his best to stabilize his mood and play a wooden man who suppresses his emotions.

   In Takagi Renhachi's view, the contradiction has completely broken out. Tao Zhiming's suggestion of dissolving Sanyou Investment Bank and completely ending the Sanyou Consortium plan was nothing but angry words. Kinoshita Xiufeng has experienced more things, and the old saying of course is that there must be enough exchanges. This exchange requires Mitsui and Sumitomo to first decide to purchase the real estate of the Gate of Heaven to compensate for their losses.

Anzhai Shanwei took a deep breath and changed his name: "Tao Jun, in the current situation, whether the gate of heaven can be built smoothly, because the whole plan of Kagura Town is also being questioned. Such a decision, I can't make it today!"

"Really?" Tao Zhiming actually laughed, then looked at Kinoshita Xiufeng, "Big Brother Xiufeng, if they don't agree, do you still want to persuade me to withdraw the funds of Sanyou Investment Bank from Onodera Fortune first? "

   Kinoshita Xiufeng gritted his teeth, and the bones on his face moved under the skin.

   "Never mind!" Tao Zhiming calmed down and said indifferently, "Actually, there is not much money, a little over 40 billion yen in total. Then what? Do you have other issues?"

  If Tao Zhiming does not agree, as the largest shareholder, it is actually impossible to advance this matter.

  Takagi Renhachi saw that he actually gave in, and couldn't help but look at him seriously.

   For a long time, Tao Dalang has invested in the yacht home port and the gate of heaven here in Tokyo, but the payback period has not yet come. The wealth of Onodera is another big fulcrum for him to create wealth.

  Now, the private equity funds in this pivot have withdrawn one after another, the housewife wealth management fund is also facing the tide of withdrawal, and the real estate trust charitable fund is under audit investigation.

   Now, he actually agreed to the withdrawal of funds from Sanyou Investment Bank. In this way, the capital stock in Onodera’s wealth has been hit hard, and the rapid and cost-free investment of the Gate of Heaven is not to attract more people to buy the real estate there after the official pre-sale announced in January of next year. ,Return of funds?

   At such a critical juncture, if the progress of the construction of the Gate of Heaven is slowed down due to Tao Zhiming’s liquidity problem, it is really…

   However, the target that everyone is aiming at is the shares in his hands.

Nojima Tatsuo actually made up for it at this time: "I have an issue here. Everyone, Mitsui's shareholding in Sanyou Investment Bank is already only 5%, and the board of directors thinks this is too little. Due to the recent disturbance, the board of directors proposed Can it be withdrawn?"

   "...Sumitomo accounts for 12.5%, but the board of directors... also has this idea."

   "The financing restriction policy for real estate may be introduced soon. If the price of real estate starts to fall, the pressure on the interest rate discount on the trust charitable fund will increase greatly. Therefore, I also have this idea."

   For a while, Mitsui, Sumitomo, and Iwasaki Ryunosuke all proposed divestment. The three of them hold a total of 27.5% of the shares. According to the current capital scale of Sanyou Investment Bank of 200 billion yen, it will take another 55 billion yen in one breath. If you want to divest, there must be dividends from past earnings.

   Tao Zhiming said "the last board of directors was just angry words", and these three companies really have to be completely cut off?

  No, Takagi Renhachi looked at them, it was just a threat. At such a critical time, what Tao Zhiming needs most is Mitsui and Sumitomo, who used to rely on power.

  Tao Zhiming looked at everyone indifferently, his tone was still calm: "The second issue is divestment, that's ok. What else?"

   He didn't seem to care, because he saw through the real purpose?

   "...There are only these two important things related to Sanyou Investment Bank." Anzai Shanwei admired the calmness before his rage, so he also said slowly in a calm voice.

   "So, there are things that have nothing to do with Sanyou Investment Bank, but are related to me personally? It doesn't matter, let's talk about it." Tao Zhiming took a sip of tea leisurely.

"Tao Jun, the order you made with the Oylt royal family, the payment for the products purchased from us, was also mentioned by the board of directors." Nojima Tatsuo took the lead to say, "In addition... the previous land of WanderDance, because the transaction amount was more than The market price at that time was lower, and in order to avoid risks, the board of directors also hoped to sell it back to you at the original price.”

  Tao Zhiming stared at him suddenly, and Tatsuo Nojima was stared at: Are you already looking for a status to star in "Memoirs of a Geisha"?

  Takagi Renhachi called him a good guy. The land was sold for 1.5 billion yuan at that time. Now I ask to sell it back, but it has actually risen a bit. Of course, 1.5 billion yuan seems to be earned by Tao Zhiming. However, this requires more than 200 billion yen in cash!

Tao Zhiming's leisurelyness disappeared, and he seemed to be completely unable to hold back. He sneered at first, then laughed hahaha, and pointedly pointed at them with his finger: "Tell me the real conditions, don't go around like this. Go around it! The land financing restrictions that Kaibu-san is insisting on are too unfavorable for you. The resumption of economic and trade with the Xia Kingdom has also angered the Americans, making the semiconductor sanctions you have already talked about relaxing and renewable variables. "

Takagi Renpachi was thinking that sure enough, he saw it clearly, and then he heard him say sarcastically: "However, if you want to use this to make me go backwards, does the Ministry of Tibet announce the purchase of a four-story building and hire me for that financial researcher? Special director of the center, don't you think about what it means?"

"...Tao Jun." Anzhai Shanwei looked at him meaningfully, and then heaved a long sigh and changed his name, "Dalang, Minister Hashimoto has received the subpoena and has received an inquiry request from the Diet again. Now that you have reached this stage, you should understand how serious the situation is. Do you really want to tell all the things you know? You know, they don't care. And we can only try to get away from this matter, Reduced losses."

Tao Zhiming smiled hilariously: "So, in fact, we are fighting each other here, but we are actually arguing for those who are not there? Besides, it is ironic enough, you really can Get out?"

   After he finished speaking, he looked at Takagi Renhachi with a sigh of relief: "Takagi-san, if Sanyou Investment Bank's plan stops like this, or I finally compromise, what should I do with the first persuasion?"

Takagi Renpachi came with a mission. At this time, he cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Everything depends on the outcome of this incident and what will happen to Sanyou Investment Bank. But no matter what, Mr. President, please tell me. Tao Jun: Everyone should not be your enemy. Please don’t do anything impulsively because of your youth! As long as a new balance can be achieved in this matter, if Tao Jun needs funds, the first persuasion can be done. Interest-free loan."

   "No interest?"

   "Yes!" Takagi Jin Yae nodded, "The interest will be borne by the president!"

  Ansai Zenwei and Nojima Tatsuo looked at each other.

   Good guy, Horikawa Nobuhiko's appetite is bigger than he imagined!

Tao Zhiming seemed to be very embarrassed, and finally eased his tone: "Big Brother Anzhai, Big Brother Nojima, just take it as me venting. But what is the situation of your board of directors now? For this plan, you have invested so much. , are you willing to let it out now, or even quit?"

   The two did not answer.

   Tao Zhiming asked back: "Do you have to exchange so much if you want to take over as president?"

  Anzhai Shanwei sighed: "Dalang, 20% is enough. You are still so young, why should you be persistent?"

Tatsuo Nojima also said solemnly: "The Ministry of Finance has confirmed that Yoshimoto, the director of the Financial Management Bureau, will be appointed as the vice president of Neon Bank, which means that Mie Nosang, who has always insisted on austerity policies, will be the president. Hashimoto-sama decided to buy The four-story building of the Gate of Heaven is not to support you, but to detonate public opinion and support Mr. Kaibe to speed up the introduction of restrictions on land financing! This is too early, if the cabinet and the central bank adopt austerity policies at the same time, all plans All will be disrupted!"

He said and looked at Kinoshita Xiufeng: "Kinoshita-san! Even if the gate of heaven can be successfully built and most of the funds can be recovered on the day, you should make a compromise! Kaibe-sama and Hashimoto-sama, this is with the Mie Ye-san has reached an agreement and is gambling with the fate of the entire neon. The voice of ordinary citizens to suppress real estate prices has indeed formed a righteousness, but how can it be so rude? For the sake of future elections, I try to use this method to save the people's lives. The approval rate is a huge damage to all of us!"

  Tao Zhiming sneered: "What does this have to do with me having to give up my position as a major shareholder? If I give up, can Lord Kaibe and Lord Hashimoto stop?"

"As long as they resign under pressure, that's fine!" Anzhai Shanwei frowned, "If you let it go, they will know that a bridge that formed the economic and trade recovery plan of the Xia Kingdom through you has no effect, and they also know that the real estate trust Charitable funds can no longer be 100% guaranteed to support the panic they caused, and those people in the United States will no longer chase after them! It’s okay to double the capital injection!”

"It turns out that what we are discussing here is not just about me, but also about the fate of thousands of people in Neon." Tao Zhiming sarcastically said, "For such a long time, I am a descendant of the Xia Kingdom. You still can't believe your identity? Do you think that Haibe and Hashimoto made such a decision because they were bewitched by me? As a bridge to restore economic and trade with the Xia Kingdom, the funds of the United States passed through the Sanyou Consortium. Can they make a profit, are they really unacceptable?"

"That's why I said it!" Anzai Shanwei also became impatient, "It's not that we don't believe you! However, you, Mr. Kaibe and Mr. Tanaka at the reception at the Xia Kingdom embassy at the same time have indeed become a lot of sensitive people. The reason why people use the question to play! Especially the United States, do you understand?"

"I just want to know who sent the materials received by Weekly Wenchun!" Tao Zhiming's voice suddenly rose, "The people who know the most details are all in this room now! Mitsui, Sumitomo, Mitsubishi, or the Mori family? Or, is it you? Brother Xiufeng?"

With the roar of   , the atmosphere in the conference room dropped to its freezing point.
