Reborn in the Tokyo Bubble Era

Page 334

"Mitsui's...extremely difficult situation?"

Tao Zhiming turned his head and asked with a smile: "The first person to be caught in the Likulut incident was the president of the Neon Economic News Agency, wasn't he? The semiconductor agreement, the Toshiba incident... Isn't the situation facing Mitsui difficult? Look at the paper, isn’t there a Columbia Pictures company? Now Mitsui has to help Sony spend more than 50 billion yuan to acquire this American company that is heavily indebted and difficult to operate. One of the purposes is to ease the tension in the United States. Sanctions against Toshiba!"

Kinoshita Hidekaze looked at the paper blankly, and then asked strangely: "But what about the Inagawa family?"

"We want to gather a new consortium. How can we lose the power of Inagawa-sama? Since the year before last, we have helped Inagawa to operate more and more formally. What is the reason?"

Kinoshita Xiufeng is convinced, who knows that you planted a foreshadowing for today?

He looked around and just shook his head: "It can't be done. Without a core bank, how can so many forces gather together? Even if they are barely together, but here, even if they are relatively influential in the industry now The most powerful ones are nothing more than Shueisha and your "Comics Dimension". Even comics have very strong competitors. Other sectors are just in their infancy, and their influence on the industry is really limited..."

"Brother Xiufeng." Tao Zhiming looked at him helplessly, "If you dare not even think about it, how can you see that future? Three years ago, how many people knew of my existence? After the changing situation of Neon In the past ten years, we have built a new consortium, what is impossible? Besides, is it going to be worse than it is now?"

How could Kinoshita Hidekaze be someone who dared not think about it? If he didn't dare to think about it, he would have been able to come to the present as a "demolition service provider" back then?

The problem is, you guys dare to think too much.

If you want to become a consortium, you must at least be truly important in a certain industry and be absolutely unshakable before expanding to more fields.

How can there be such a direct six-plate layout!

"Stepping on the corpses of certain forces... Is the economy in such danger?" Kinoshita Hidekaze was startled.

"Dangerous?" Tao Zhiming sighed, "I think there will probably be dead bodies everywhere..."

Chapter 423, The Ultimate Plan for Harvesting

Kinoshita Hidekaze is in the era and has never seen the future, so he doesn't have a deep understanding.

Hearing what Tao Zhiming said, he said puzzledly: "No matter what, the cabinet will play a strong role! Just like the stock market, it is rising very fast now, and it will fluctuate a little later, which is understandable. But you It is too exaggerated to say this situation!"

Tao Zhiming returned to the sofa, and replied lightly: "Have you forgotten the Tao family?"

"What's wrong with the Tao family?" Hideka Kinoshita, like a follower, came over and asked mysteriously.

Tao Zhiming chuckled: "Some people joked that this is a financial black ship attack, why are you still so optimistic?"

"... After all, the current neon is not comparable to that before the restoration! The strength lies here."

"I made my fortune financially, didn't I?"

"……Correct."

"Then I said that the judgment in this aspect, you should think it is more credible?"

"you say!"

Tao Zhiming then talked about how foreign capital used the open financial door to harvest neon round after round, and then lazily said: "Although I don't know what the timing will be, the logic is very clear. Bar?"

Kinoshita Hidekaze was speechless, mainly because Tao Zhiming said that the current trading volume in the stock market and foreign exchange market, the scale of funds is indeed terrifying.

During the bubble era, the average daily turnover of the neon stock market exceeded 8 trillion yen, and the total market value exceeded 600 trillion yen.Among them, the total funds from ordinary households exceeded 240 trillion yen.

What is this concept?According to the exchange rate at this time, the money of ordinary leeks has nearly 2 trillion yuan in the stock market.

Neon’s GDP at this time was only about 3 trillion yuan, and the total market value of a single stock market alone was much higher than GDP, not to mention the foreign exchange market, which is another big pit of speculation.

So, where did Neon China get such a large amount of funds to enter and exit these two financial markets?How large is the foreign capital?

After the foreign capital is harvested and collectively withdrawn, how can Nihong be a human being?

As soon as the bubble burst, Neon had to start large-scale intervention in foreign exchange.If the neon yen plummets, not only will the domestic economy collapse, but it will also be unable to meet the requirements of the United States.So within a few years, Nihong surpassed the United States in one fell swoop in 93 and became the strongest foreign exchange reserve.After another 10 years, it will even exceed the sum of the foreign exchange reserves of all other developed countries.

After Tao Zhiming briefly explained, Kinoshita Hidekaze also had some foresight about "corpses all over the field".

"Scary..."

"So, big conglomerates like Mitsui are very aware of future crises. But they are also the most resistant to risks, so they also regard these as opportunities. In order to seize this opportunity, they must make some adjustments for the future." Tao Zhiming also began to look at the paper, "Mitsui is being targeted now, and they have to make the most choices. From me, they will gain more than they will lose."

"...You want to replace them and buy that Columbia Pictures?"

Tao Zhiming smiled: "Where do I have so much money? Besides, why do I want to be taken advantage of? Others want Mitsui to lose blood, not to make me lose blood. It's just a clever exchange. I've already told the wilderness about this matter." Brother Shima talked with President Morita."

"... What does the best choice here mean?" Kinoshita Hidekaze simply cared about something that seemed to be related to him.

"A trading company." Tao Zhiming said with a smile, "After the impetuous consumption concept fades away, there will be huge opportunities. I have a trading company, and you are a trading company. Isn't it just right? The consortium also needs a cargo throughput, influence window to as many consumers as possible."

"...Is it an existence like Mitsubishi Corporation and Itochu Corporation?"

"There is no chance to build that kind of comprehensive trading company anymore. Those are the products left over from history." Tao Zhiming's eyes were shining brightly, "However, times are changing, and there will be new opportunities, even broader ones."

Kinoshita Hidekaze was not stupid, he looked at it and said, "Is it related to technology and culture?"

"That's right! Lay the foundation first!"

"What foundation has been laid?" At this time, Anzhai Shanwei finally came.

Tao Zhiming stood up, looked at him and asked with a smile, "Brother Anzhai, how sure are you of competing for president?"

Anzhai Zenwei was stunned, and then smiled wryly: "Although there is the support of the chairman, but because I am the chairman, there are many people who are not happy to see our faction continue to dominate the direction of Sumitomo. .”

Only then did Hideka Kinoshita know that Tao Zhiming's so-called "extremely important" matter even had something to do with the candidate for Sumitomo's next chairman.

Now that he asked this question, he might also use this matter to make Sumitomo step down from the position of the largest shareholder of Sanyou Investment Bank and let Tao Zhiming completely occupy the dominant position.

How to do such a thing?

Kinoshita Xiufeng heard Tao Zhiming ask: "The Shiodome land is now in his hands, and the total value has exceeded 10 trillion yen. No one has the strength to take it over, and no one dares to develop it at this point in time. What is Sumitomo's plan for this land?"

When this question came to a crux, Yoshie Anzai sat down, drank tea and said distressedly: "This land now belongs to the National Railway East Neon, and we and Mitsui are the two largest shareholders in it. The plan really made the value of this piece of land higher, and Mogami Gokuraku Town was built so quickly, which raised its price. Now it seems... At that time, it seemed that it was not It was a good move. For this matter, the chairman has also been under a lot of pressure recently."

This land is one of the foundations for Tao Zhiming's rise in Neoneng.

First of all, for this matter, it won the piece of land made by Takeda to add chips to Sumitomo.

Later, in the competition with Mitsubishi, Tao Zhiming even pulled Sumitomo and Mitsui together, and pulled Iwasaki Kuranosuke off the horse, causing Mitsubishi to temporarily fall into internal turmoil, allowing Sumitomo and Mitsui to take the initiative.

And now, Kinoshita Hidekaze, who was only planning to sell the land to cash in, has built Mogami Gokurakucho; the Tokyo Sub-City Center project, which was progressing slowly, has advanced ahead of schedule and quickly.

The value of the land in Shiodome has skyrocketed to the point where no one is able to take over the land.And the big consortium knew well that the neon economy would collapse sooner or later, so they didn't dare to invest in development at this point in time.

If the price of Neon Real Estate collapses, how much extra pressure will Sumitomo and Mitsui bear?

Yoshie Anzai continued to say distressedly: "The main goal of the cooperation discussed with Seibu Group was to develop the Shiodome land in the next step. However, the trust charity fund and the pre-sale model were very successful, and he was persuaded by Governor Suzuki instead. I am going to invest in Osaki. I am afraid that for a long time in the future, the National Railway Dongnihong will bear a heavy burden because of this land.”

"The National Railway Dongnihong is, after all, a harvest with longer-term benefits. It is too exaggerated to talk about burdens." Tao Zhiming's eyes were sharp, "Chairman Di also invited me to develop Osaki together. Brother Anzhai, if I can persuade him to cooperate with more people to develop the land of Shiodome, so that you can get back some funds at the current high position, what can Sumitomo give me?"

Yoshiaki Anzhai was shocked, and then he laughed: "Yoshiaki Tsutsumi is not an idiot. The total investment in Osaki exceeds 2 trillion yen. How can he have spare energy to develop Shiodome?"

"I mean, if I can convince him."

Anzhai Zenwei stared at him, then pondered.

The land in Shiodome is now worth more than 10 trillion. This scale is too exaggerated.But if even one-third or one-fourth can be given up now, more than half of the investment at that time has been returned, and a large proportion of high-quality land will be held.

The question is, where does Yoshiaki Tsutsumi have the energy to do this?

Thinking of this, Anzhai Shanwei's heart moved, looked at Tao Zhiming and asked: "Could it be you, do you still want to participate? At such a high price now..."

"I don't care about temporary gains and losses." Tao Zhiming said indifferently, "The relationship between the three of us is already so close, so I'm going to be honest. As for President Di, who has invested most of his funds in the real estate field, and is still For those who have invested more, they can’t stop. They just believe that the financial institutions with which they have established extremely large credit relationships will be rescued in the future.”

"You mean..." Anzhai Shanwei looked at him with some trepidation.

Since someone like Yoshiaki Tsutsumi can grow to such a large scale, he is also shrewd.

He could also see the danger, so he did not invest heavily in residential real estate projects at the beginning, but waited patiently for the first batch of residential real estate projects invested by Mogami Gokurakucho and Tao Zhiming to evaluate the capital cycle and rate of return.Now he is starting to push forward vigorously, and naturally because he thinks he can handle this matter in two to three years, he will leave in time.

In fact, his judgment was also correct. The neon real estate bubble did not start to collapse until after 92.

Before that, how many financial institutions and ordinary families would his project involve?This is a typical too big to fail, he is also creating such a situation, all in all at least he has to get out of the game.

However, since Tsu Yiming was the real estate tycoon who fell the fastest in his memory, it means that someone buried a hole for him a long time ago; That includes the Tao family, including those from Sumitomo.

Since he had the intention to bury the hole and slaughter the strongest and fattest pig, so many people deliberately created some information cocoons for Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, resulting in some misjudgments.

Now, Tao Zhiming is also going to join the team of knife-handlers, eyeing people like Tsui Yoshiming.

"I've already talked with President Tsutsumi to shrink the industry back to Tokyo." Tao Zhiming said frankly, "My yacht's home port is across the sea from the land of Shiodome. I use the funds sold to Seibu Group, plus other Funding, it is natural to propose a plan from Shiodome. With the progress and speed of our investment in the Mogami Gokurakucho and Fukutoshin housing projects, now that the projects there are completed, it is logical for us to continue to invest in new projects.”

Kinoshita Hidekaze was taken aback: "Now invest in Shiodome's project? Don't scare me."

"Listen to me." This time Tao Zhiming played a big game of harvesting the bubble, so he was very patient, "We can make money first in this project. The price of Shiodome's real estate is indeed high, but breaking it down, It becomes an investment product, but there are many potential customers, and they are all over the world."

Tao Zhiming's strategy is not complicated.

It was also for Tsutsumi Yoshiaki to see the sweetness first.

Outside of Tao Zhiming, Tao Yaren, the Xiangdao family, Ouyert royal family and many other opportunities can help him promote the project to rich people all over the world, and there is full support from all parties in Neon.Together with Kinoshita Hidekaze and Sumitomo Real Estate, Shiodome can first use a small piece of land to build a seaside flat floor that will become more and more popular in the future, the world's top luxury residential projects, and high-end businesses underneath, as well as Tao Zhiming's yachts The home port complements each other.

With the reputation of Mogami Gokurakucho and a sufficiently eye-catching design, some upstarts in the world who still can’t see the neon bubbles can enter the game.

The commercial real estate part of this project also has obvious "investment value" in the neon where luxury consumption has already boiled.

In this process, with some financial products, it can guide some private finance to design a "fund-raising investment" model.Tao Zhiming also created the impression that the real estate held by the first investor was resold, with huge profits.

From 89 to 91, in three years, we can gain momentum in the first year, and we can see the money back in the second year.

At that time, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi's Osaki project also reached the repayment period.As long as Tao Zhiming can, with the help of Tao Yaren, allow Di Yiming to obtain greater financial support from certain banks, he will dare to follow after he settles the score.

Anzhai Shanwei became more and more frightened, and his voice was a little trembling: "Are you serious? If there is a problem in any link, the hundreds of billions of funds you have accumulated now will be gone."

Tao Zhiming knew it very well, he now has more than a few hundred billion yen in funds?In fact, his bankroll is several times that size.

Since we want to harvest the neon economic bubble, how can we not invest a part of it first?Reluctant to let go of the child and not to let go of the wolf, Tao Zhiming was very determined.

"The next step is the most critical." Tao Zhiming took out the piece of paper and handed it to him, "When the crisis really breaks out, we will eat up those banks with extremely large bad debts and those assets that have plummeted. , Turn around and become a new consortium according to the long-standing preparation. You can rest assured that with my promise to help deal with some non-performing financial assets in the future, this project will be given the green light all the way.”

"New... consortium?" Anzhai Zenwei looked at the content on the paper with a daze, and then looked at him.

"The most expensive thing is nothing more than land." Tao Zhiming said, "We are planning. As long as Sumitomo and Mitsui can reach a tacit agreement with me and withdraw part of the funds from a consortium like Seibu Group, then this matter will be settled. It can be started. Within two years, the first skyscraper will be built and sold. By then, this kind of high-quality real estate assets will also be the one with the best value preservation!"

"Within two years? How is it possible?" Anzhai Shanwei asked in a low voice, "It will take at least one or two years for the design and review approval alone, even if the green light is given!"

"Remember last year when you asked me to find a way to deal with Shiodome's problems, did I arrange for someone to go there to investigate? The design is already in place, the Louvre in Paris, and Bei Yuming, the designer of Xiangdao Xiayin Building. This will be him The last masterpiece before retirement, for this final plan, I spent more than one day planning."

The biggest purpose of this plan is to attract people like Yoshiaki Tsutsumi and Kitaro Watanabe into the game, and get them in first.

The second step is to attract the outflow of funds from the stock market after the stock market starts to fall next year, and trap another batch.

And the third step is to wait for everything to collapse, and then start to cut, integrate banks, and buy other assets.

The real large-scale development of the land of Shiodome will naturally wait until the water in the real estate is squeezed out.

In order to really lay the foundation for a new consortium, Tao Zhiming made preparations and invested at least 20 billion yuan in this matter.

When I helped Sumitomo and Mitsui win this land, I knew they would have nothing to do with it in the end.After all, this is a piece of land that was sold only after the total price dropped to a mere hundreds of billions of yen.

From the beginning to the end, the rise of the neon because of this land, of course, use it as a harvesting stage!

Anzhai Zenwei pointed directly at the key point: "Even if only one-fifth of the land is allocated, it is 2 trillion yen. Now, where do you have so much money?"

Tao Zhiming then said: "The Tao family will cooperate with me. You know who they represent, right? Let's put it this way, if this plan can be implemented, some of the things you are required to complete, Mitsui is required to spend some Part of the money can be saved. This plan is not just my plan."

Yoshie Anzai and Hideka Kinoshita opened their mouths together.

"Headquarters floors, one-story villas..." Tao Zhiming grinned, "Probably only those who are the most powerful but not sober enough will become victims of this plan. But these people, when they fall in real estate prices After falling into crisis, it is exactly the goal of the Tao family. Before actually discussing with the Tao family, I want to discuss with you and Mitsui how we can get rewards from this matter."

"This is really... really..." Anzhai Zenwei didn't expect that the land of Shiodome would be used in such a way now.

Use the last large undeveloped piece of land in Tokyo to weave a shocking situation and let those who will become victims come in.

In the end, those who raised the butcher's knife included the big consortium of Nihong, the big foreign capital represented by the Tao family, and planners like Tao Zhiming.

Kinoshita Hidekaze remembered the word he said: dead bodies litter the field.

The only difference is that they will be commanders overlooking the future battlefield.

"Devil..." Kinoshita Hidekaze murmured.

"Don't say that about yourself." Tao Zhiming smiled in disapproval, "Why did Ryunosuke Iwasaki serve as the chairman of the trust and charity fund? Why did he transform the entire Iwasaki family into a property protector? Don't worry, he wants to play the role of a savior. To take advantage of this big storm, return to the most active position within Mitsubishi in one fell swoop. By the way, he will also participate in this matter."

Tao Zhiming raised his hand and snapped his fingers: "Sumitomo, Mitsui, Mitsubishi, Tao family, me... By the way, Tao Yaren told me that there will be a very powerful bargaining chip. Our prime minister also has to support this plan, and provide support through the Ministry of Finance.”

"...The Ministry of Finance, how will you support this plan?"

"I won't talk about other things. I made a request. When this building is built, the Ministry of Finance will buy a few floors and set up a financial research institution."

Yoshie Anzai and Hidekazu Kinoshita were inexplicably shocked. What kind of plan is this?

Why does the Ministry of Finance have to buy a few floors and set up some kind of financial research institution?

Is it because the buildings in the Ministry of Finance are not enough or what?Or is it that the cabinet buildings are not enough?

Tao Zhiming didn't finish his sentence: "Taking the planning of the Shiodome land as the starting point, on the surface it is only because of the support of Brother Xiufeng and I, but in fact, some people in Sumitomo will change their positions and also support this plan. Brother Zhai, if this plan can be promoted, I can promise you now: your position as president is already guaranteed. Believe me? I mean promise! The previous sub-capital development plan, as well as the trust charity fund Expansion is just for today!"

Yoshie Anzai looked at him speechlessly, recalling in a daze the emotion that the chairman had felt at that time because of the words "Ueda Taro's fearless adventure".
