The Kyoto Bubble Era: It started with selling off hundreds of millions of property - Chapter 621

c596 Soros’ plan

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Sosuke Kitahara.” Soros smiled, stood up and shook hands with Sosuke Kitahara, “Who is this?”

He only knows Kyoko Kobayashi. After all, she is already a well-known Asian financial queen in the London financial community. She is in charge of Kithara Securities, which has just emerged in the past year. She is fighting in the European financial community. Her huge amount of funds and skillful operation system are impressive. Jaw-dropping.

At first they thought this woman was the vase Kitahara Sosuke brought to the front desk, but after several contacts, the Soros team determined that there was no trace of Kitahara Sosuke behind Kyoko Kobayashi. Kitahara Securities operates independently, and the power is basically in her alone. In human hands!

Soros admires and is puzzled by this.

After the bubble era, Japan’s four major securities companies were in fragments, the securities industry was in a mess at home and abroad, and the banking industry was in a slump. The securities companies of the six major consortiums were simply unable to operate.

This was a vacant market in Japan. He could understand Sosuke Kitahara’s aim at this market, but why would he hand it over to a woman and let her struggle to operate such a huge sum of money alone in a foreign country?

After Kitahara Sosuke decided to find him, he vaguely had a shocking guess, but he couldn’t believe it in his heart. After thinking about it many times, he finally agreed to this interview that would never have happened.

Giving a large sum of money to a woman as a toy.

What kind of person is he?

“My personal assistant, Fujiwara Norika.” Kitahara Sosuke smiled and took his seat. Fujiwara Norika and Kobayashi Kyoko sat on both sides of him. The three of them surrounded Soros like horns.

“Hello, Miss Fujiwara.” A glint flashed in Soros’s eyes, “If I remember correctly, you once worked at Japan’s Financial Services Agency?”

“Yes, I didn’t expect you to actually know about this? Not long ago, I resigned from the Financial Services Agency and was invited to come to Kitahara Group to serve as President Kitahara’s personal assistant.”

Fujiwara Norika responded with a smile, and gently scratched Kithara Sosuke’s palm with her fingers under the table. This “personal assistant” always smelled weird.

“Haha, leaving the Financial Services Agency is a good choice. I heard that Japan is undergoing a major purge of the financial industry. Several ancient families plan to attack the Financial Services Agency and the Ministry of Finance. If they continue to stay there, they will inevitably be affected.”

Soros smiled and poured a cup of coffee for Kitahara Sosuke, pushed it in front of him, and continued to talk to himself,

“Speaking of which, people from the Sumitomo Foundation also approached me not long ago, hoping that I could conduct some simple business cooperation with them, but I refused.”

There is a profound meaning in every word of Soros. He deliberately asked about Fujiwara Norika’s identity, and said that he had heard about it. Along with the secret information from Japan, he was just telling Kitahara Sosuke that he had no knowledge of the disputes in Japan. It is clear that his people have many sources of information.

As for the subsequent mention of rejecting the cooperation of the Sumitomo Foundation, it is like giving a candy after the big stick, a common method used by business leaders.

After all, he plans to come here to see Kitahara Sosuke, which means that he will no longer conduct overt transactions with other consortiums in the short term.

Reputation is the most important thing in the business world, but in the face of real interests and changes in the current situation, reputation is just a piece of waste paper.

Only the victors write history.

Kitahara Sosuke is most familiar with this kind of negotiation.

He’s also very good at coping.

“Why refuse? The six major consortiums have a much deeper foundation than I do. No matter how you look at it, you don’t think the Sumitomo Consortium will lose to us.”

Kitahara Sosuke took a sip of coffee.

“Mr. Soros has a lot of money. You were behind the bursting of the bubble economy and the explosion of the stock and housing markets. I don’t think you will give up a great opportunity.”

“The possibility of making a lot of money is called an opportunity. If you know that you will lose money if you invest, that is called an absolute risk.” Soros replied with a smile, “The Sumitomo Foundation has put pressure on Mr. Kitahara from both political and economic sides. It seems that The momentum was huge, but the final result was unsatisfactory.”

He paused, took out a stack of information from the handbag beside him, and placed it on the table.

“This is some information that my subordinates have recently collected. You two ladies can take a look.” Soros looked at Kitahara Sosuke. “The Sumitomo Foundation has used a lot of manpower and material resources to successfully dismantle the Financial Services Agency. The next goal is the Ministry of Finance. , in order to shake the status of His Excellency Ryutaro Hashimoto, and in the financial and economic circles, they also spent a lot of money to acquire many endangered companies.”

“36 trillion yen.” Soros gestured at a number.

The two women also finished reading the information and nodded slightly to Kitahara Sosuke, indicating that Soros was not exaggerating.

“It can be expected that this investment will increase in the future.” His expression gradually became serious. “The Sumitomo Foundation is indeed very wealthy and is one of the largest consortiums in Japan. However, it only has so much money in hand. It has invested a lot in domestic Market, I am determined to fight you to the end!”

“There is a saying in China that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain. I am not satisfied with the Sumitomo Foundation, and it is not a day or two.” Kitahara Sosuke has not yet found out the real amount of funds invested by the Sumitomo Foundation. These foreign conglomerates have strong strength and sophisticated intelligence networks, and they cannot tolerate it. Look down upon.

36 trillion, almost reaching the high-risk line for the liquidity of Sumitomo Foundation that he estimated.

If it increases any more, it will be a strain.

I just suffered a few setbacks not long ago. If I continue like this, my foundation will be shaken!

That is to say, Sumitomo Shigeki’s strategy has been set.

Use all forces to suppress yourself in the country, and then take advantage of the situation to engage in mergers and acquisitions, using the economic and financial industry as the basis to launch a general attack on yourself.

When the economic situation is good, this approach will undoubtedly dig its own grave. No matter how much money is spent, it is impossible to do it, but now

The industry has collapsed, and the Financial Services Agency and the Ministry of Finance, which are the only ones able to regulate, are also in danger. The Prime Minister and Cabinet have insufficient power, leaving Shigeki Sumitomo with a lot of room to display.

First, make a mess of things, and after you have dealt with your own strong enemy, you can then reorganize the domestic industry and develop it upwards.

The strategy is really well done.

If Japan can recover within the next ten years.

If Japan’s domestic financial industry has indeed hit bottom.

“Non-interference in the politics of other countries is one of the opaque rules for our businessmen.” Soros sighed, “We will not participate in Japan’s domestic disputes. The Sumitomo Foundation has no money, so what’s the point of asking me to cooperate.”

hehe.

Kithara Sosuke sneered in his heart.

These foreign consortiums have no bottom line at all.

Still not interfering?

It just seems unprofitable.

Isn’t what they are going to discuss next a serious interference?

“Mr. Soros, I roughly understand what you mean. You think there will be more benefits in cooperating with me.” Kitahara Sosuke smiled, then slowly approached him, holding the corner of the table with both hands, “But… , as for me, I don’t really like the situation when the partner is working in an unfavorable situation.”
