"That's all?"
"It's not just that." Tao Zhiming said hopefully, "The car CD player is just the first step. In the next step, we can rely on the accumulation of Mr. Sun Zhengyi's Softbank in the neon game industry to make the game console company become a big player. We have to rely more and more on us. The future development of this game console company must be combined with personal computer technology, coupled with the future listing, it will be a matter of time before we completely gain control of this company.”
"At the same time, I will do the third thing: develop an optical drive that can be used in personal computers. At the same time, the standards for personal computer optical drives and multimedia optical discs can all be done by companies in our consortium. Now in the field of software, music and film and television, the combination of several of us is enough to have the ability to plan the future structure of the entire industry."
"Based on the new generation of media, personal computers, music players, and video players, there are too many things that can be done. Standards, content, software, hardware...Mr. Stevenson, how many listed companies can be born here? Wouldn’t such a future be more attractive than the current neon industry that earns more income and spends energy to take over and manage them?”
In the face of Tao Zhiming's eloquent talk, Stevenson was not persuaded: "The premise is that it can be done. Technology research and development, product polishing, and cost control are not small investments."
"The initial investment is done by us! The polishing of the product, I already have experience in the operation of karaoke karaoke machines, and I also have a factory with reliable craftsmanship. And cost control... When this storm is over, Neon's labor costs will be reduced. Quite a few; moreover, it is not impossible for us to set up factories in places with lower labor costs."
"Where? Zhou Kingdom, Xia Kingdom, or other places?"
"It's all right, see where the cost is the lowest and the benefit is the best. For you, the most important thing is to get the shares of this consortium from the top, and you will enjoy the massive benefits created by people like me in the future."
Stevenson glanced at Tao Yaren, then changed the topic with a smile: "Yaren said, you are more interested in eating, drinking and having fun. I didn't expect you to think about technology products."
"Technology is the source of continuous upgrading of eating, drinking, and entertainment. Of course, when you are with Mr. Masayoshi Son, it is hard not to be influenced by him, and feel that personal computers are brewing an infinite future. Mr. Jamie, you also have a deep understanding of this point Bar?"
Jamie Dimon said with emotion: "Mr. Masayoshi Son, he is indeed very enthusiastic, thoughtful, and expressive..."
He manipulated the process of Softbank's listing on Nasdaq, and dealt with Masayoshi Son a lot.
"So I was also influenced by him, and because of the relationship with Mitsui and Sumitomo, I opened a semiconductor foundry in Xiangdao." Tao Zhiming looked at Stevenson and said solemnly, "I want to let their The semiconductor industry is not unstoppable, and it is not enough to cultivate some new competitors in Zhouguo. Although my silicon chip focuses on CPU and flash memory technology that Toshiba and NEC are not optimistic about, but since Intel is fully invested in CPU , I believe even more in a future led by us.”
Stevenson took another deep look at Tao Zhiming: "Mr. Tao not only pays attention to Hongsu, but also pays attention to Zhou Kingdom?"
"Mr. Nojima Tatsuo from Mitsui has complained to me a lot. Because of the difficult situation of the neon semiconductor industry, Jiuxing of Zhou Kingdom is now frantically absorbing talents from neon regardless of the cost."
"What about Columbia Pictures? I heard from Jamie that you rejected his invitation the year before last."
Jamie Dimon argued after hearing the words: "Mr. Tao, don't misunderstand this point. The request I made to Sony now is different from the idea I invited you back then."
Tao Zhiming smiled, what's the difference.
At that time, you must have tried to trick me, but now the price for Sony is higher.
Now the relationship between the two parties has undergone subtle changes, but Tao Zhiming said frankly: "In order to make Mitsui and Sony willing to carry out the above-mentioned cooperation with me, I agreed to buy Columbia Pictures together with them. Now I have Blockbuster, and in the future if If video discs can be successfully developed and household video disc players can be popularized, this business will not be a loss. Mr. Stevenson, the returns you get from these transactions are just invested in the reform of Sanyou Investment Bank. .”
He smiled cautiously: "After all, the goal of a certain big bank in Nihong will probably take nearly ten years to complete, right?"
"Oh? Mr. Tao is saying, can we buy shares in Sanyou Investment Bank now?"
Tao Zhiming nodded solemnly: "That's right, buying shares now can also reassure the adults of Nihong. After all, in this way, many follow-up operations will have a direction."
"Mr. Tao also agrees with Columbia Pictures' current offer?"
"I approve of this price because I am investing in the future."
"Mr. Tao has such sincerity, we will seriously consider it." Stevenson looked at him and paused, then said, "But if Sanyou Investment Bank can't really control a big local bank in Neon in the future , the so-called statement of becoming a consortium is unrealistic."
The main event came, Tao Zhiming looked at Tao Yaren, and then asked with a smile: "Mr. Yaren, do you know the Mistress Ogami in Kansai?"
Tao Yaren was stunned, and then introduced to Stevenson and Jamie Dimon: "An old woman in the Kansai metropolitan area of Neon has gathered the assets of quite a few middle-aged and elderly housewives in Kansai through so-called divination. I heard that now She is a guest of Industrial Bank, First Quanye Bank, Changxin Bank and many other banks. According to the information I got, she has accumulated more than 5000 billion yen in financing from major banks and private financial institutions."
"As expected of Neon." Stevenson exclaimed happily, and then asked Tao Zhiming with interest, "Mr. Tao mentioned her, could it be she and you?"
Tao Zhiming quickly waved his hand: "I'm only interested in young and beautiful women, Mr. Stevenson, don't be kidding."
The three of them were dumbfounded, and then burst out laughing speechlessly.
Tao Zhiming was nothing more than trying to grasp the atmosphere in such a scene. After everyone had calmed down, he raised his lips and said, "I don't care how she raised the funds. However, her current funds are actually 3650 billion yen. It's all in my Onodera wealth. Divination can't bring her good luck, now, it's me who decides her fate."
Tao Yaren was inexplicably shocked: "What you said is true?"
"This is a secret that belongs to me and her." Tao Zhiming said solemnly, "She doesn't completely trust me alone, so she still has more than 2000 billion yen to be managed by herself or by others. However, I've been giving her a steady stream of returns."
"Amazing!" Stevenson clapped his hands. "Investment is always risky! So, Mr. Tao will be able to affect the bank debts incurred by that woman?"
Tao Zhiming nodded: "The bank's debt scale is very large. With her character, she will definitely become a stain in the future. At that time, she and some irrelevant people will be pushed out as scapegoats, but we will use her as a scapegoat." A willingness to take on a portion of the debt as a requirement can put conditions on some banks."
At its peak, Ogami raised nearly 3 trillion yen in financing from various banks and financial institutions, causing huge financial losses. In the end, he was only sentenced to 12 years in prison, which shows how big the ghosts are.
She was one of the direct reasons for the merger and reorganization of Industrial Bank, First Quanye Bank, and Fuji Bank.
Tao Zhiming added: "Last year she repaid 530 billion yen in loans from Industrial Bank, but this year she plans to buy 1200 billion yen in bonds from Industrial Bank, and she told me that Industrial Bank promised to lend her 1800 billion yen this year. This is just A profile, how big is the scale of high-risk loans for the banks and financial institutions that are currently related to the major consortiums of Neon? In the reorganization and merger at that time, we only need to focus on one of the banks, and through a series of Exchange, you can dominate a big bank!"
"The target is Industrial Bank?"
"No!" Tao Zhiming shook his head, "The target is Changxin Bank! According to the latest data, the assets of Changxin Bank have reached 22.6 trillion yen. In the past four years, the assets of Changxin Bank have increased by more than 1 trillion yen every year. Almost all of them come from real estate. Now the largest customers of Changshin Bank are Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, Sho Takahashi from EIE, Kitaro Watanabe, Haruhiko Yoshimoto, and me soon!"
"Changxin Bank with 22.6 trillion yen?" Stevenson calculated in his heart, good guy, it's more than 1700 billion yuan.
"That's right. The major shareholder of Changxin Bank is the Ministry of Finance. If there is a policy adjustment at that time, Changxin Bank will be the first to be affected, and its bad debt scale will be the first to expand. And Changxin Bank is not the core of other consortia's interests. Other consortiums will have the highest priority to give up their shares in Changxin Bank. The most important thing is that your energy is most likely to directly affect the political arena of Neon. The Kaguracho plan I proposed puts the main financing target on Chang Xin Bank, it is to take the initiative."
Stevenson was so moved that he stood up and paced.
A big guy with more than 1700 billion yuan, this goal is really good, really good.
Tao Zhiming continued: "Changxin Bank is the most constrained by policy. Before 85, they were not allowed to invest in bonds and stocks. After 85 years, the new leader was a reformer. But because Ni Hong Real Estate and the stock market skyrocketed. Although the reformers have made some achievements abroad by acquiring companies, merging companies, and bond dealers, this effort is almost negligible in the face of the bubble dividends enjoyed by domestic conservatives. Now, in charge of Changxin Bank Koichi Hirao of the international capital market is in New York."
Stevenson stood still, turned and looked at him: "You mean, inside, outside...together?"
"That's right. Once our Kaguracho plan is launched, Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, Kitaro Watanabe, and Haruhiko Yoshimoto will all be in deep trouble because of Osaki New Town and other projects. Takahashi from EIE is a very luxurious People. He bought a lot of private jets, one of which is still entrusted to me. His layout, there are many in Neon Overseas.”
Tao Zhiming looked at him and continued: "These people are people who have been planned to be sacrificed first. Although their assets are mainly real estate, but based on current prices, the total scale has reached more than 2000 billion yuan. Among them, the highest quality ones are worth eating at low cost after the real estate bubble bursts. At that time, we ourselves will affect the huge debt of Changxin Bank, and we can also exchange with other consortiums through debts of other banks, Ministry of Finance If you want to get out, there are our people in Changxin Bank, so you have the greatest chance and the lowest cost to take over this bank."
Stevenson looked at Tao Yaren, and he nodded solemnly: "What Dalang said is true according to our intelligence analysis. Seibu Group has now controlled nearly 10% of Nihong's operating real estate! These In the future, it can exert a huge influence!"
Tao Zhiming took a deep look at him and asked, "Is this the goal of Iwasaki Ryunosuke?"
Tao Yaren just smiled but did not answer. Instead, he continued to say to Stevenson: "If you master the Seibu Group, you will be able to influence a very considerable number of business owners and employees through such a large-scale operating real estate. residents and . . . votes!"
Stevenson understood, and suddenly asked, "The Real Estate Trust Charity Fund?"
Tao Yaren nodded solemnly: "A perfect closed loop. As long as this plan can be implemented smoothly, this future new consortium will not only have a bright future, but will also exert great influence on the most densely populated constituency."
Stevenson pursed his lips and sat down slowly. After thinking for a long time, he took the initiative to pick up the wine glass and said with emotion: "A great plan! Mr. Tao, why are the worries of those politicians who confirm Neon too much?"
Tao Zhiming laughed and replied: "Probably because they have done too many dirty things, so it is inevitable that they will worry about spending time in prison. In Neon, sometimes dignity is the first requirement. For this dignity, Sometimes I am willing to pay a higher price. But I am a young man after all, and I think the times have changed. In the future, it will be an era in which financial blood flows all over the world and drives the exchange of interests. The most important purpose, the neon financial market Openness, hasn’t it already been achieved? Most politicians have a very shallow understanding of finance, and they don’t realize the huge historical significance of it.”
"Hahahaha." Stevenson laughed loudly, "You are right! Mr. Tao, you are amazing!"
Tao Zhiming smiled modestly.
The party that was supported after the war and has been firmly in control of the neon political arena was naturally affected by the big changes brought about by this "financial black ship" and by this small incident of relentless Rikulut There are too many associations.
But for the United States, neon is obedient enough, why bother to make great efforts to subvert the existing pattern?
What these financial capitals need is only a turbulent environment, so that they can rely on a deeper understanding of finance, calmly deploy and harvest quickly.
Only Tao Zhiming, who came back after more than 30 years, knows this set in detail, so he can have both sides.
Sure enough, Stevenson looked at Tao Zhiming with great admiration: "Mr. Tao, now, I myself believe that you can build this new consortium. So, let's start with your Onodera fortune. , start cooperating in private?"
Tao Zhiming's eyes moved, and he heard that there was 3650 billion yen on his side, and he heard that he had such a clear understanding of the current situation. Do you want to get a share of the profits after the bubble burst?
Maybe he still wants to find out Tao Zhiming's real strength.
However, Tao Zhiming had already planned, so he said frankly: "I still need a good image in the neon country, so the headquarters of Onodera Fortune is not suitable for doing things that will make crazy profits. Therefore, I have already planned to Set up a new company here in the United States. Mr. Stevenson is interested in taking a share?"
Chapter 429 If I were Mr. Ueda, I would be very angry
The investment fund that Runai Onodera mentioned was prepared for this.
Now, it's time to act again.
After Tao Zhiming heard Stevenson's affirmative answer, he said: "The total capital of Onodera Fortune's operation now just exceeds 1 trillion yen. After the middle of this year, I will select from among those customers who trust us the most. Come out and set aside 10 billion yuan to set up this investment fund based overseas."
To put it bluntly, he did not take out the money himself, but the money raised by Onodera Fortune from customers, and it was independently operated in the United States.
Stevenson looked at him meaningfully: "Then, won't your Onodera wealth belong to that Sanyou consortium?"
Tao Zhiming sighed: "Mr. Stevenson, when Neon's stock market opens and falls, I will affect the investment income of Onodera's wealth and exacerbate the debt crisis of Neon Bank. There will be a trough first, and then it will become a standout The existence of the company can help our new consortium build a better image. So, now is not a good time."
"It makes sense." Stevenson still didn't give up, "Then besides the investment fund you mentioned, at least we can establish other cooperation first?"
"That's what I said about laying out the video disc. In addition, don't we already have cooperation with TV Tokyo, Kashima's TVB and ATV? After the capital increase and reorganization of Sanyou Investment Bank, if you come in first, Then it will also indirectly participate in other companies under my umbrella."
What he said was like this, Stevenson still has important matters that need him, so he didn't continue to dwell on these details.
After talking about discussing these matters with other people, Stevenson finally asked: "Mr. Tao mentioned Hongsu earlier, do you have any thoughts?"
Tao Zhiming laughed and said: "If it's just me, I probably just want to see if there will be a chance to make some money from the financial market in the future. I don't know what their reforms will be like now, but as long as there is a big There should be opportunities for changes.”
Now there are only changes there, and there are discussions about reform.
At this moment, who would have thought that a split would soon come and a complete collapse within two years?
So Tao Zhiming said it very vaguely. Anyway, it is an early layout, and there are always things that can be done.
Seeing Stevenson smiling without saying a word, Tao Zhiming took the initiative to ask: "Mr. Stevenson, is there any plan that I can participate in?"
"Now everyone is still observing, how can there be any plan. As you said, I don't know what they will reform into."
Tao Zhiming acted a little disappointed, and then said: "I understand, then, I will concentrate on doing the neon work well."
Neon's work is done, let these vultures taste some meat, and they can always be borrowed later.
Tao Zhiming knew very well how Hongsu used shock therapy behind him.
It took Tao Zhiming two days to come to the United States for the most important thing.
This night was spent in this winery. With the good impression in the morning, Tao Zhiming met a lot of big shots in the evening.
He only sticks to his own bottom line. After all, Nihong can be managed by him, and Tao Zhiming also has a lot of bargaining chips.
For these capital gluttons, everything is nothing more than settling accounts.If Tao Zhiming can bring them more benefits than expected, then he is naturally the best partner.
For such a huge cooperation, there are many things to communicate within the consortium, and there are many details to confirm with Tao Zhiming.
So it is natural to stay an extra day at the winery.
If you want to keep him, you can't just talk about things all the time. Of course, you have to cultivate your relationship.
So in the evening, another luxury car drove to the winery, and Tao Zhiming saw many familiar faces again.
The clothes are not as good as the newcomers, and Tao Zhiming is not too presumptuous in front of these people.And since he had a relationship with Cindy Crawford before, Tao Zhiming simply stuck with her at the party.
During this meeting, Tao Yaren had to admit that Tao Zhiming was always calm and normal.
Whether it was meeting myself or Stevenson and the others.
Tao Yaren was very puzzled to see how he gradually became more and more acquainted with these big shots in the United States.
Obviously, they came here to "seek peace" with the opinions of big figures in the neon political circle.
Why does he always have such a strong heart?
……
Tao Zhiming has a very ordinary heart for these capital gluttons, but he is very sincere about what he wants to do.
After picking up Zhao Yuanxi who came from Xiangdao, after flying to Dallas, the two rushed to a hotel, where they waited for the person they wanted to meet.
They don't live here. The one who lives here temporarily is Zhang Rujing, an engineer who rushed back to Texas Instruments headquarters for a meeting.
Sitting in the small coffee shop of this ordinary business hotel, Tao Zhiming took off his sunglasses and put them on the table, and looked out the window in a relaxed manner.
"Isn't it early? Who knows how long he will have the meeting?"
Tao Zhiming glanced at him: "Is there anything else that needs to be done?"
"...That's not true. Just sit here and wait?"
"Then what do you want to do?"
Zhao Yuanxi said strangely: "This is not Xiangdao, and there are no outsiders. What are you doing with your guns and clubs when you talk, and who will you act for?"
Tao Zhiming just chuckled: "Probably because I'm in a good mood, I'll tease you."
Although Stevenson and the others have not yet given a final answer, since Tao Zhiming can pull the banner of the neon political arena and consortium at them, and can go back and pull the banner of the big capital of the United States, his goal has been achieved up.
Zhao Yuanxi also performed well in Xiangdao.
At this moment, Tao Zhiming has already seen quite a lot of truths in front of Tao Yaren:
To help Mitsui participate in the acquisition of Columbia Pictures, this part comes to 15 billion yuan.
To help Sumitomo and Mitsui start the plan to develop the land in Shiodome into Kaguracho, this part needs to invest 1500 billion yen with Kinoshita Hidekaze.
In order to acquire a total of 30% of the shares held by Sumitomo and Mitsui in the reorganization of Sanyou Investment Bank, based on the past performance of Sanyou Investment Bank, Tao Zhiming will spend another 30 billion yen to acquire a total of 900% of the shares.Coupled with the capital increase of Sanyou Investment Bank to 2000 billion yen, Tao Zhiming has to spend another 45 billion yen based on the total 450% of the shares he holds.
To complete the order from the Ouyert royal family, Tao Zhiming will have to advance more than 7 million yuan in advance this year.
These few things, plus the investment in the construction of the Tokyo yacht home port this year, Tao Zhiming will have to prepare more than 50 billion yuan for Neon.
