I became the richest man in the world after losing my life in a vegetative state - Chapter 1474
#1474: Sun Zhengyi, the richest man in the East, is just Yang Ming’s white glove!
Yang Ming knew that the Japanese were very cunning, but he didn’t expect that they could do this.
The M country was secretly creating a god.
And the Japanese couldn’t create a god, so they could only use this method to boost their confidence.
However, Yang Ming thought it was useless.
“No need to clarify, those investors will know sooner or later.”
In that case, Li Yongfeng didn’t care anymore, but asked: “Boss, Mr. Sun just said when to meet you?”
Mr. Sun?
That was Sun Zhengyi.
At this time, Sun Zhengyi was already the richest man in Japan.
Of course, the real richest man in Japan must be one of the six major conglomerates in Japan, but on the surface, Sun Zhengyi is indeed the richest man in Japan now.
And on the Forbes list of Japan, Sun Zhengyi has been ranked first on the list of the richest people in Japan for many years.
However, people outside don’t know.
Sun Zhengyi’s wealth is only superficial, because Sun Zhengyi, like Max, is just a white glove cultivated by Yang Ming.
Yang Ming is not a Japanese.
Although the Empire Group has entered Dongyang for many years, it still entered as foreign capital.
However, it is very difficult for foreign capital to take over the market in Dongyang.
In this case, it is just right for Yang Ming to use his agent to manage Dongyang’s industry.
And this agent is Sun Zhengyi.
Historically, Sun Zhengyi also became the richest man in Dongyang many times after establishing Softbank.
However, now in the early 1990s, Sun Zhengyi became the richest man in Dongyang, precisely because the company he founded was responsible for many of the Empire Group’s industries in Dongyang.
In other words, some industries that the Empire Group is not suitable for appearing in are all managed by Sun Zhengyi and his Softbank company.
In other words, Sun Zhengyi is now the richest man in Dongyang on the surface, but most of the wealth here belongs to Yang Ming and the Empire Group.
And yesterday afternoon at the airport and last night at the guest house, Yang Ming did not see Sun Zhengyi.
It may be that Sun Zhengyi felt it was inconvenient to see him.
“You ask him to come to see me in the afternoon, to see me openly.”
Even if Sun Zhengyi is just Yang Ming’s agent in Dongyang, there is no need to sneak to see him.
“Yes, boss.”
Li Yongfeng accompanied Yang Ming to finish lunch at the Setagaya Villa.
After leaving.
It was about three o’clock in the afternoon.
Yang Ming was resting in the master bedroom.
There was a knock on the door.
Seeing Fujii Ruri coming in, Fujii Ruri said, “Sir, it’s Mr. Sun.”
That is to say, Sun Zhengyi, the richest man in Japan, is here.
After hearing Li Yongfeng’s message, Sun Zhengyi came in a high-end Japanese business car.
Outside the Setagaya Villa.
The full-time driver was waiting in the car.
Sun Zhengyi, now 38 years old, was wearing a suit and had some baldness on his head.
Maybe because of years of thinking and working, his hair fell quickly.
When Sun Zhengyi came in, he was taken to the study by Lin Xiuzhi.
Lin Xiuzhi closed the door.
“Boss, I’m here to see you.” Sun Zhengyi said.
Yang Ming looked at Sun Zhengyi now.
Now Sun Zhengyi is indeed a wealthy man in Japan, but he is definitely not the richest man in Japan. However, in the eyes of Japanese people, Sun Zhengyi is their richest man.
In addition to cooperating with Empire Group and taking over many businesses of Empire Group, Sun Zhengyi’s wealth has skyrocketed very quickly.
“Zhengyi, please sit down here.”
Yang Ming asked Sun Zhengyi to sit down.
Sun Zhengyi began to report to him about the company.
In fact, it was SoftBank’s investment, including the industry invested, the income obtained, etc.
Historically, Sun Zhengyi and SoftBank’s most successful investment was Alibaba, which invested in Mayun, which brought him a lot of wealth.
Of course, in other aspects, Sun Zhengyi’s investment is not bad.
For example, in history, Sun Zhengyi built his SoftBank empire step by step.
Historically, in 1991, Borland, a company famous for its C language compiler, was preparing to release an upgraded version in Japan. At that time, Borland CEO Philippe Kahn quickly reached a consensus with SoftBank. He said: “If we have any disputes, we have settled them at the sushi bar.”
In the same year, Sun Zhengyi persuaded Novell, a regional network professional company in the United States, to open up a new market in Japan. In order to spread the risk, he invited Disney to join again. By 1994, the success was achieved. Novell system became one of the main standards for regional networks, with an annual turnover of 130 million US dollars.
Darl McBride, vice president of Novell, believed that Sun Zhengyi was an intermediary who could make anything come true. In 1992, Sun Zhengyi obtained the agency rights of Cisco Systems in Japan, and suggested that Cisco use routers as a test to test the feasibility of Cisco’s Japanese branch. A month later, he invited 14 Japanese companies to jointly invest 40 million US dollars to start the project.
In the same year, SoftBank controlled 70% of Japanese software sales channels.
In 1994, when Sun Zhengyi was 37 years old, he became a billionaire with a net worth of 1 billion US dollars. His company became a listed company. In the same year, he acquired Ziff Communications, but failed to succeed due to the incomplete facilities. SoftBank already owns the Expos Association, the largest exhibition industry in Japan, and also holds a minority stake in Asahi TV.
In February 1995, Sun Zhengyi and Cisco Systems President Chambers discussed the feasibility of selling Cisco routers and establishing a Cisco East Asia branch.
A month later, SoftBank immediately invited 14 Japanese companies to jointly invest 40 million US dollars and was fully prepared. Peter Clark, head of Cisco’s business department, said that Sun Zhengyi was not like a slow-paced Japanese, but a man of action. The Internet century was still in its infancy, but SoftBank was already welcoming the new era in full swing.
In the same year, at the Comdex computer show in Las Vegas, it once again connected with Ziff-Davis Publishing Company and bought part of Ziff-Davis’s equity for US$2.1 billion; in November of the same year, it invested US$2 million in Yahoo.
In 1996, Sun Zhengyi invested a total of 3.1 billion US dollars to obtain full management rights. He owned Computer Intelligence, which had long been the publisher of PC Week by Ziff-Davis Publishing Company and specialized in personal computer marketing research. In March of the same year, he invested another 100 million US dollars to own 33% of Yahoo’s shares. Yahoo Japan successfully entered Japan and made a profit in the first year. 85% of Japanese netizens had visited this site. Yahoo e-commerce invested by SoftBank. After July of the same year, Yahoo’s users grew at an astonishing rate.
Now there is no Cisco in the United States, but there is Golden Gate Technology Company founded by Yang Ming.
In fact, the current Golden Gate Technology Company is the Cisco in history.
As for Yahoo in the United States, there is also Yahoo, but that is also a company invested and established by Yang Ming.
Today, these companies have not cooperated with Sun Zhengyi.
And this time, Yang Ming is still ready to authorize the agency rights of these Japanese companies to Sun Zhengyi.
When Sun Zhengyi was talking, Yang Ming was listening.
Sun Zhengyi is very capable.
He also knew that in his previous life, Sun Zhengyi was able to become the richest man in Japan, which was certainly not easy.
And now as Yang Ming’s agent, it is even more difficult.
“Zhengyi, I will give more industries to you and your company to act as agents.” (End of this chapter)
