Rebirth Tokyo 1986

Chapter 220 July Operation
At 9: am on Monday, Masato Takeshita sat in the middle of the podium, gazing at all the employees of Xinghai Investment.

It wasn't until the conference room was completely silent that he asked in a serious tone, "Have you dealt with all your personal matters?"

"It's taken care of!"

Everyone answered in unison and loudly.

"Very good, very energetic."

The young man's mouth curled up slightly, but he quickly returned to seriousness.

"It's still the same old rules. Sign the confidentiality clause on the table, and then we can proceed to the next work."

The financial sector is one of the industries closest to money and is rife with intrigue and deceit.

Masato Takeshita never believed in human integrity, but believed more in the sanctions of rules and laws.

Whenever Xinghai Investment made a big move, he would ask employees to sign confidentiality agreements with harsh compensation.

Only by combining this with strict security checks and closed management can we avoid information leakage to the greatest extent possible.

Employees of Xinghai Investment have become accustomed to this model. After simply scanning the contract, they quickly sign their names and stamp them with their own personal seals.

There is no need to read it too carefully. The astronomical figures written on it are more than you can afford to pay in your lifetime anyway.

What if you don’t check carefully and fall into traps in the contract?
All I can say is that in this era, this kind of thing will never happen.

On the one hand, Japan practices a lifetime employment system.

Most employees will work for a company until retirement, so there is no need for a company to set traps to harm its employees.

On the other hand, Japanese society attaches great importance to the relationship between companies and employees.

If a social scandal of this kind occurs, companies have only one option.

Bankruptcy.

Unlike later generations, with the gradual disintegration of the lifetime employment system, Japanese companies have become less and less trustworthy. When it comes to contract issues, everyone must check carefully.

“Is everything stamped?”

"It's covered."

"That's good."

Hearing everyone's response, Takeshita Masato nodded.

Then he looked up and continued, "Each section chief will collect the contracts from his subordinates and then hand them over to Secretary Asano."

"Hi!"

More than a dozen section chiefs from Xinghai Investment, as well as the young man's exclusive secretary at Xinghai Investment, Kayo Asano, all bowed in unison in response.

Masato Takeshita ignored everyone's actions and continued to give serious instructions: "For positions above section chief, the contracts will be collected by the three presidents and handed directly to me."

"Hi!"

There were a large number of confidentiality contracts, so the young man prepared a suitcase with a confidentiality lock early.

Of course, it doesn’t matter whether the suitcase has a combination lock or not.

The strictly managed safe at the Xinghai Group headquarters is the final destination of the confidentiality contract.

After all the contracts were collected and put away, Masato Takeshita calmly stated the goal of the action.

“Except for Nintendo shares, sell all Japanese stocks.”

The young man's voice was not loud, but the effect it created was earth-shattering.

Everyone looked at him in astonishment, thinking that it was all an illusion and could not believe what they heard.

Masato Takeshita saw everything and repeated it softly with a calm expression.

"You heard me right. I said to sell all Japanese stocks except Nintendo."

After the release of Game Boy, Nintendo's stock price continued to rise.

This upward momentum will continue until Nintendo officially enters Europe.

Masato Takeshita naturally would not sell these shares early.

Speaking of which, Nintendo's market value trend is very interesting.

The order in which Nintendo's new products are launched is generally Japan - North America - Europe.

When a new product becomes popular in Japan, the company's stock price will surge.

After the new product is launched in the United States and becomes popular, the company's stock price will surge again.

However, when new products are launched in Europe, no matter how they sell, there will be a rapid decline.

And this decline is very scary, with huge ups and downs.

Maybe before the product was launched in Europe, the company's market value reached $200 billion, and then after the product was launched in Europe, the company's market value dropped to $100 billion.

I can only say that those who speculate on Nintendo stocks really know how to have fun.

"Hi!"

Although most people could not understand their president's actions at first, due to their personal worship of Masato Takeshita, they still chose to accept it calmly.

My ideas are inconsistent with those of the president. It must be because I am not smart enough.

This is the importance of grades.

When you achieve success, there will be great scholars who will debate for you.

German oil-wrapped paper and Japanese summer camps before the rise of nations are both very typical cases.

The entire nation has a relatively low self-esteem and is extremely envious of the economy and culture of developed countries.

The moon in foreign countries is rounder and the air is sweeter.

As for China's rise, oil-wrapped paper and summer camps have become fodder for ridicule, and people no longer believe these stupid stories.

At the same time, foreigners also began to debate for China.

Describe the inevitability of China's rise from all angles.

Among them, there was one sentence that I don’t know if it was written by a foreigner or a Taiwanese, but it was a classic because of the social security issue.

You socialist babies.

That’s right, I’m talking about giant babies.

Since China's rise, public security has become better and better.

Many men and women born in the new era are completely unaware of the dangers of society.

When they travel, work or study abroad, they still bring their domestic thinking habits with them.

They take going out alone at night for granted and never imagine the robberies and killings in the dark.

Or maybe they are too naive and easily trust others, which eventually leads to a series of serious consequences.

"There is plenty of time to clear out the Japanese stocks. There is a total of two and a half months."

"I hope everyone can formulate detailed buying and selling strategies to conceal our exit situations to the greatest extent possible."

When large amounts of capital flee, you cannot simply sell them all at once.

After selling 100 lots, which is 10000 shares, immediately buy 20 to 50 lots. This is more covert.

As for why the time was set at 2 months instead of 3 months, it was because we wanted to leave a certain amount of turnaround time.

Don't make any plans too rigid.

Because people make many mistakes and cannot be perfect.

"Hi!"

Although he has studied for several years, Masato Takeshita is still not as professional as most employees in the company.

He did not get involved in the operational details of the liquidation, but stayed at the central level to stabilize people's hearts.

"Changxin Bank sold 100 lots."

"Changxin Bank sold 500 lots."

"Changxin Bank bought 35 lots."

"Changxin Bank bought 150 lots."

……

The Japanese stock market in July is still in a booming state.

People were buying stocks crazily at securities companies, and many housewives simply treated the stock market as a bank with higher interest rates and special deposit methods.

They are simply unaware of the huge risks involved.

As for losses, that's something that only Americans would do.

We in Japan not only have a leading position in light industries such as textiles and clothing, and heavy industries such as steel and automobiles, but also in the information and communications industry, which represents the future. 60% to 40%, the advantage lies with us.

Because the Japanese stock market continued to be hot and was dominated by buying, Xinghai Investment's liquidation operation was very smooth.

On the first day alone, more than 3% of the funds were sold off.

If you are not afraid of exposure, even selling 5% of your total funds is not an unattainable dream.

Of course, Xinghai Investment will only do this on the first day.

If you say it too many times, university graduates who have just started studying finance will find that something is obviously wrong.

Because in the 80s, the daily trading volume of the Japanese stock market was limited.

Xinghai Investment has shipped too many products, so it is easy to be targeted.

Of course, the daily trading volume of the Japanese stock market in the 21st century is actually very low, only a few hundred billion US dollars.

It is far less than the $2000 billion trading volume of the A-share market and even less than the $5000 billion trading volume of US stocks.

It can only be said that the long-term activity of the stock market does reflect the economic development to a certain extent.

Countries with long-term active stock markets usually have good economies.

For seven consecutive days, Xinghai Investment made very smooth progress.

Masato Takeshita stopped the high-intensity defense and began to return to normal life.

On this day, the young man came to Matsumoto Manufacturing.

He sat on the sofa in the president's office, looking at President Kobayashi Hiroaki with a fierce look.

"Tell me, what new plans does the company have recently?"

"Hi!"

Kobayashi Hiroaki subconsciously bowed slightly, then respectfully presented the company's latest plan.

"President, we plan to acquire a medium-sized beverage company, Yoshida Corporation. This is the company's operating conditions and number of employees."

Masato Takeshita took the plan and flipped through it carefully.

"It looks great, but what's the price?"

Although this company called Yoshida Corporation is not a big brand, it is well-known in Japan and can distribute its products to most parts of the country.

Now is the peak of the bubble economy, and it would be very expensive to acquire such a well-run company.

"It is estimated that 1000 billion yen will be spent, which is not a big price to pay."

The acquisition price of 1000 billion yen is indeed nothing for Matsumoto Manufacturing.

The company raised hundreds of billions of cash when it went public last year, most of which is currently in Matsumoto Manufacturing's account.

Kobayashi Hiroaki has always wanted to spend part of it, but was always stopped by Takeshita Masato.

This time, it was another attempt for him.

"Wait a little longer, this time next year, I will definitely not stop it."

Acquiring a company at the height of the bubble economy would have resulted in huge losses.

It’s better to postpone it a little and do the same thing at a lower price.

"Subordinates understand."

He was used to being rejected, so he felt a little disappointed.

But I still can't help feeling unwilling.

It is such a pity that hundreds of billions of funds are lying in the account without moving.

"It's just a few hundred billion yen. Why should you be so worried every day?"

The young man looked at his subordinate's expression which could not be concealed and continued speaking unhappily.

"Okay, you and Suzuki-san win this time."

"You go and exchange half of the company's cash into US dollars, and I will go to Xinghai Investment to set up a new investment fund to specifically help Matsumoto Manufacturing with capital operations."

Masato Takeshita couldn't stand the sad looks that often appeared in the eyes of Hiroaki Kobayashi and Zensuke Suzuki.

Isn’t it just putting the money raised by the company temporarily idle?
One by one, is it that serious?
"really?"

Kobayashi Hiroaki didn't expect that happiness would come so suddenly, and he subconsciously kept asking.

"Of course, I can still lie to you."

The young man also felt that it would be a waste to keep such a large amount of money there, so it would be better to buy some stocks for financial management.

Of course, the most important purpose of this money is still to help the development of Matsumoto Manufacturing.

"Yes, thank you, President."

Kobayashi Hiroaki was overjoyed and kept bowing and expressing his gratitude.

"No need, this is our common company."

Masato Takeshita waved his hand, signaling his president to calm down.

"Yes, President."

Kobayashi Hiroaki answered this way, but he still couldn't calm down.

It took about five or six minutes before he finally calmed down.

Then he asked cautiously: "Um, President, can I give you some investment advice?"

"Sure, go ahead."

The young man changed into a comfortable position, ready to listen to his president's opinions.

"That's what I think, President."

Kobayashi Hiroaki ignored the president's un-Japanese behavior and spoke in a simple and soothing voice.

"According to the chairman's previous plan, Matsumoto Manufacturing's development goal is to become a giant in all areas of food, clothing, housing and transportation. So my suggestion is to buy more stocks of companies related to logistics, shopping malls, supermarkets and other channels."

“It would be better to become a major shareholder in these companies so that you have a higher position in terms of channels.”

"In this way, whether it is energy drinks that will be launched soon, or current trolley suitcases and ready-made clothing products, they can all get more support."

This veteran and meritorious founder of Matsumoto Manufacturing has many ideas for the company's future.

Investing in supermarkets and controlling sales channels is a path that is ready to be realized.

After hearing this, Takeshita Masato clapped his hands and praised, "That's a very good idea. We think alike."

"I asked you to convert half of the company's assets into U.S. dollars because I wanted to buy a large number of shares of foreign distributors and become a major shareholder."

In the era before the rise of Internet e-commerce, channel dealers controlled the life and death of many companies.

Masato Takeshita is preparing to invest in a newly developed supermarket company.

Walmart and Mart in the United States and Carrefour and RT-Mart in Europe are all targets of young people.

At that time, Xinghai Group will not only be able to take the opportunity to make a fortune in stocks, but also avoid being controlled by channel dealers.

In fact, Matsumoto Manufacturing can do things like investment on its own.

But Masato Takeshita also had selfish motives.

He controlled all the shares of Xinghai Investment, but after Matsumoto Manufacturing went public, he only owned 46.15% of the shares.

Only by investing your money in Xinghai can you earn more.

"Really? Hehe."

Kobayashi Hiroaki relieved much of the pressure in his heart after gaining the president's approval.

Matsumoto Manufacturing was too successful under the leadership of Masato Takeshita. His successor has not achieved any achievements yet and does not have enough confidence to command several vice presidents.

This time is different.

If he can consolidate the existing channels for the company and open up more channels, he will have enough power to overwhelm the company's top management.

Although he couldn't achieve the effortless demeanor of Masato Takeshita, he could still command everyone better.

"Okay, anything else?"

"If nothing else, go to the bank and exchange it for dollars."

After saying this, the young man changed to a more comfortable sitting position.

"Yes, President!"

After Kobayashi Hiroaki left the president's office, he felt like he was walking in the breeze.

From now on, he is no longer the president of Pojiao.
