Tokyo Detective

Chapter 220 Who is in favor and who is against
Who is he?
This is a question that many directors have. Generally, personnel changes among directors should be notified.

Yamashita Taiji asked with a gloomy face.

"Do you have a good idea?"

Naoki Hanyu said it very frankly.

"No."

Yamashita Taiji scolded directly.

"No then what are you talking about?"

Naoki Hanyu was not in a hurry and looked directly at the president who had been silent.

"President Kimura, please tell everyone my identity."

Kimura Toshinin sighed. He understood that the shareholders wanted to interfere in the bank's affairs, which was what he hated the most. He clearly didn't understand the banking business, so he just had to wait to collect the money.

But what can we do now? If we compromise, all shareholders will lose everything they have invested, and this has already touched the shareholders' bottom line.

"This is Naoki Hanyu, a major shareholder of our bank, who also serves as a director of the bank."

"The largest shareholder?"

Many directors looked at the youngest man in the meeting room. It turned out that an important person had come to listen, so Yamashita Taiji's tone became much softer.

"Director Hanyu, you can see that we have no other options but to compromise."

Naoki Hanyu would not agree, because he would really lose hundreds of billions, even if the money could not be moved, so he slammed the table and stood up.

"This is the responsibility of your board of directors. I don't care what method you use, but you must not surrender before the battle. If anyone dares to talk about compromise, I will immediately convene a shareholders' meeting and dismiss all those who want to desert. So anyone who wants to leave can resign now, no matter who they are or what position they hold."

Yes, he had already discussed with other shareholders when he came here. It would become waste paper anyway, so they certainly didn't want to see the board of directors surrender without a fight. Even a salted fish would have to jump up and down a few times.

Such aggressive words made everyone shut up. The shareholders’ meaning was very clear. Even if the president wanted to surrender, it would not work.

Yamashita Taiji wanted to say more but was interrupted by Hanyu Naoki.

"But."

"Director Yamashita, you are not going to be a deserter anymore, are you? I don't want to kick a veteran employee out of the bank."

"."

Yamashita Taiji sat down again and remained silent. He was actually in cahoots with the Minister of Transport. No, it should be said that he was in cahoots with Nakai Fumio who was behind them. He never expected that a major shareholder would pop up in something he thought was a sure thing.

Kimura Rinin spoke now.

"Since this is the request of Mr. Hanyu and all shareholders, then our bank will of course do its best to fight back. Gong Lin, you have been listening in for so long, do you have any good ideas?"

The new head of the financing department, Gong Lin Yingli, stood up and said calmly.

“I have some humble opinions to share. If we want to resist, the target we have to deal with is not the Minister of Transport and the government behind him, but the Development Bank.

They account for 4000 billion out of the 2700 billion debt. Even state-owned banks will have internal disagreements over such a large sum of money. We just need to get all the banks on the same side and bring Neon Airlines back to life. The government cannot force us to do anything. Of course, the premise of all this is that Neon Airlines can be saved."

All that is needed is to turn Neon Airlines from loss to profit, but this is also the most difficult challenge, after all, Neon Airlines has been losing money for more than ten years.

Yamashita Taiji signaled his faction's men to speak, but just as he was about to open his mouth he was met with a stern look from Hanyu Naoki, so he shut up instantly.

Kimura Toshishi looked at Hanyu Naoki.

"What do you think, Director Hanyu?"

Naoki Hanyu nodded.

"I think it's feasible."

"In this case, let Gong Lin handle this matter. The bank will also do its best to promote this matter. Does anyone have any other opinions?"

"."

Whatever opinions the other directors have, not to mention that the president has given in, they are also unwilling to give up their annual salary of tens of millions, so they certainly dare not offend the shareholders who are forced into a corner.
.
After the meeting, Hanyu Naoki called out to Miyabashi Eri. The two had cooperated before in the land and bone-collecting case.

"Ms. Gong Lin, I would like to invite you to dinner. Please talk to me in detail about the plan you have in mind."

"Okay, I didn't expect Officer Hanyuu to be a major shareholder of the bank."

At this moment, a man called out to Hanyu Naoki. It was Makoto Ota, the director in charge of the human resources department.

"Mr. Hanyu, I want to talk to you. Is it convenient for you?"

Naoki Hanyu doesn't care. I heard that he used to be a managing director, but was demoted after making a mistake. He is not from the same faction as the president.

The president is the former president of Dongye, Makoto Ota is the former president of Fuji, and Taiji Yamashita is the former president of Kogyo.

In other words, the former Fuji has been kicked out of the core of the bank. After all, the faction leader only got the fifth-in-command position. Now is the era of competition between the former Dongye and the former Xingye.

Naoki Hanyu felt that a bank that was about to go bankrupt was doing this, which was really a case of there being too many turtles in the shallow water.

"Of course no problem, Ms. Gong Lin, I'll pick you up after get off work."

"sorry to bother you."
.
In the director's office, Oota Makoto poured a glass of wine and served it with both hands.

"Mr. Hanyu is such a talented person. I believe you are the only one who can save our industry."

Naoki Hanyu picked up the red wine and drank it in one gulp, then signaled Ota Makoto to continue pouring the wine.

"Director Daejeon, if you have anything to say, please speak up."

"It's like this. I believe that shareholders headed by Mr. Hanyu don't want the bank to go bankrupt, but some senior executives of the bank don't consider the shareholders. This is not acceptable. I think it's better to let the shareholders, no, Mr. Hanyu, know the bank's situation clearly."

This guy with the dark gray name wants to join him?

Anyway, Hanyu Naoki doesn't think he has such a cuckold spirit. "So, Director Ota, what kind of compensation do you want?"

"This is not a reward. I am just considering the shareholders."

"Go ahead. After all, it's not easy for you to break the bank's unspoken rules."

The so-called unspoken rules of banks are that they are not influenced by external forces, whether they are shareholders, public opinion, or even the government.

Oota Makoto gave a flattering smile.

“I want to be a president, a president who listens to Mr. Hanyu’s instructions.”

Naoki Hanyu nodded. Everyone can make big promises.

"I agreed."

Oota Makoto immediately bowed in thanks.

“Thank you very much for Mr. Hanyu’s support.”

After the chat, Ota Makoto watched Hanyu Naoki leave and his expression immediately turned serious again.

"If I could become the president, I would thank you, Naoki Hanyu."

This difficulty is a good opportunity. The bankruptcy crisis has strangled the shareholders together, and he can use this power to kick out Nakamura Toshinin who has put the bank into crisis.

As for whether or not to follow Hanyu Naoki's instructions afterwards, that is definitely impossible.

Bankers have their own dignity. How can they let outsiders command them? Just because they are a major shareholder with 15% shares, they cannot do whatever they want in the Tokyo Central Bank.

On the other side, Naoki Hanyu was eating and chatting with Eri Miyabashi.

"Are you sure, Ms. Gong Lin?"

"I can't say I'm sure, I can only do my best."

Naoki Hanyu nodded. He was still puzzled as to how a 37-year-old woman could become the head of a bank's headquarters and be entrusted with tasks that could determine life and death.

Could it be nepotism? After all, although this woman is a bit cold, she has a scholarly temperament.

It shouldn't happen. Both Kimura Toshinobu and Oota Makoto are confident in this woman's abilities and there is no way they would hand it over to someone with connections.

"Ms. Gong Lin, you can do it with confidence. All of our shareholders will stand behind you."

Gonglin Yingli shook her head.

"I don't believe what Mr. Hanyu said. If the government tries to incite other shareholders to rebel, can you guarantee that they will still stand behind you?"

“That’s a real problem.”

In business, there is only profit, not friendship. Besides, he is not familiar with other shareholders. He was forced to join forces because of the bank's difficulties.

"In any case, I will support you unconditionally."

"Thank you very much for your trust."

The next move by the Tokyo Central Bank is like a race against time with the government's special task force.

January 1: The Bank of Tokyo and the Development Bank of Japan reached a consensus and formed a joint team to enter Neon Airlines for an on-site inspection of this behemoth with a debt of more than 19 billion yen.

January 1: The government special working group began to move into Neon Airlines, but the work office had to be renovated first, so it was delayed again for a few days.

February 2: The banking team conducted a comprehensive observation of Neon Airlines from the perspective of bankers and produced a detailed report.

In the restaurant's private room, Eri Miyabayashi handed a survey report to Naoki Hanyu.

"Here are the details for Neon Aviation."

When Naoki Hanyu opened it, he was surprised that he could find so much in less than two weeks. There was a lot of information in it that could prove that Neon Airlines could still be saved.

1. Neon Airlines is not as corrupt as other companies that are about to go bankrupt. This can be proved by the fact that Neon Airlines still maintains absolute etiquette. Generally, companies that are about to go bankrupt will not maintain etiquette towards outsiders, but Neon Airlines still maintains its honor and dignity.

2. Neon Airlines still maintains a top-level talent training process, and the quality of their employees is definitely top-notch among major airlines.

Three: This is the most important financial issue. Neon Airlines’ pension system cannot be reformed, which has led to great financial pressure. Also, because each department is only responsible for its own affairs and does not communicate with other departments, it has the problems of gaps like traditional companies.

For example, if a customer encounters a flight attendant who doesn’t know the way and asks for directions, the flight attendant will not lead the way herself, but will instead look for the department specifically responsible for asking for directions to come and lead the way.

It was clearly just a small matter but it still wasted manpower, which led to the inflated number of employees at Neon Airlines. In addition, the return on net assets was negative 15% in five years, which led to its bankruptcy.

The bank team's revitalization plan is to bridge the gaps between departments and reduce the cost of doing one thing. The second thing is to transfer excess employees, such as to other airlines and high-tech companies, a total of 1000 people.

The more Naoki Hanyu looked at it, the more he thought it would be feasible. The only difficulty was the placement of employees, which was not an easy task.

Gong Lin Yingli pointed to a certain item in the document and said.

"Mr. Hanyu, I hope you can help me catch some corruption and fraud bugs at Neon Airlines."

Naoki Hanyu looked at the names on the list and finally nodded.

"Okay, I will arrange some personnel to cooperate with you and only help you catch the criminals who have committed crimes."

This matter must be handled by Shiraishi Ryosuke, a trusted and capable confidant.

February 2: At a staff meeting of Neon Airlines, several corrupt customers with ties to bank politicians were arrested on the spot. The employees reluctantly accepted their fate of being transferred to other companies, and each department also praised the successful breaking of barriers for the sake of saving.

Next, as long as a company is found to relocate the employees, there will be a turning point for Neon Airlines, and Naoki Hanyu will also be credited with the contribution of Ryosuke Shiraishi.

But this is not the end yet, because the special task force, the Minister of Transport, and even Fumio Nakai behind them have not yet taken any action.
