A few days later, Eiko Kitagawa received a call from the secretary's office of the president of the hard gold group. The time agreed between the two sides was at half past ten this morning.

Eiko Kitagawa prepared everything and came to visit Masayoshi Kishimoto in person. Not long after she sat in the office of the president of the Hard Gold Group, a female secretary brought her a cup of freshly ground and brewed Brazilian coffee.

Eiko Kitagawa has long heard that the hard gold chaebol Masayoshi Kishimoto is a young man. Today, one day, it still surprised her.

At such a young age, he has such a big career. From the bottom of my heart, I can't help but be in awe of the young man I met for the first time in front of me.

Masayoshi Kishimoto remained quiet, but he was already fully prepared. After Rie Sakai told him about that business card and things, not only did he reject it in his heart, but he also felt that it was a good investment area. In the 21st century, what is most lacking?

The cultivation of talents is naturally inseparable from education. Not to mention the wealthy class, even the middle class, will increase spending and investment in children's education.

Japan is also one of the countries that attaches great importance to education. The middle class is also large in this country, and there is no shortage of consumer groups. Soon, Kishimoto Masayoshi arranged for his subordinates to conduct various investigations into Eiko Kitagawa's education group.

The report was that the other party belonged to a group of schools from kindergarten to high school in Minato Ward, not a group of training institutions.

In the past one or two years, it has developed very strongly, and it is highly sought after and popular by the middle class because of its moderate price and good level of education.

Their propaganda advertisements and banners are that education should start from the child and lead her all the way to a prestigious university in Japan.

Even if there is still a big gap with the traditional private kindergartens, private elementary schools, private junior high schools, and private high schools located in Minato City, it cannot stop the enthusiasm of middle-class parents.

It is actively seeking to go public in order to further raise funds from the financial market to expand its scale, recruit better teachers, and so on.

The financial market is not a park, but still a place for people to wander around at will. People here don't care if you have an educational heart or not, they want to hold their shares and make money in the future.

In addition, in the review of the listing qualifications of the Tokyo Stock Exchange, the relevant government departments naturally have their own strict requirements.

"I wonder if Mr. Kishimoto is interested in education?" asked Eiko Kitagawa after drinking her coffee.

"Since you are Yanai Masa's sister-in-law, then I will say it directly if I have something to say. For a long time, our hard gold group has either been directly engaged in industry or investment.

In terms of investment shares, my investment in the companies I look good at is maintained at a ratio of 3 to 40%. How many shares are you going to give to me, and at what price?"

Kitagawa Eiko didn't dare to give shares according to the other party's request. Not only her, but also the other shareholders behind her are afraid that they will be eaten in the future.

However, their top priority is a lack of funding. Without money, the expansion of the school is an empty word. Minato Ward has one of the most expensive land resources in Tokyo.

The relocation and rebuilding of the school is bound to delay time and reduce the style. Their target group is Tokyo's middle class.

The dream they created for Tokyo's middle class was that their children would not only be able to enter Japan's prestigious universities one day, but also be able to graduate from university and enter large companies with a decent and good income.

Finally, the key point is to be able to afford a house in Minato City, start a happy family, and live a life that everyone envies.

If there is no such thing as the school's philosophy, everything is water without a source and a tree without roots. Minato has a unique and unrivaled position in the hearts of Tokyo's middle class.

"Chairman Kishimoto, although I know that you are not short of money, I am afraid that it will be difficult for us to give you three or forty percent of the shares. Kitagawa Eiko said seriously.

"And how much are you going to give me at most?" said Kishimoto bluntly.

"One percent at most. Eiko Kitagawa raised her right index finger and said.

"It's just a mere 10% of the shares, so don't you have another funding gap?" said Kishimoto with a smile.

"If we can go public with the support of the hard gold group, then it should not fall below the issue price, but will continue to be sought after. Eiko Kitagawa smiled.

"The main thing for you is not to sell our shares to our hard gold group, but more to use our reputation in the financial market to promote the brand of your school. "Kishimoto hit the nail on the head.

Kitagawa Eiko is Ming people don't say secret words: "I really hope that President Kishimoto can take care of him a lot." ”

"One percent of the shares, it is indeed too little. "Kishimoto has other plans, but he pretends to be embarrassed. His weight fell backwards and he leaned back in his chair.

"From my personal point of view, I naturally want to give you more. However, mine is really powerless. Eiko Kitagawa put down the coffee cup in her hand and said seriously.

"It's okay to have a share. I have one condition attached. If you agree, I can borrow from you the prestige of our hard gold group in the financial market.

If you don't agree, nothing has happened between our two families. This will not have a negative impact on the relationship between me and the Yanai family. Kishimoto said calmly.

"Speak. Kitagawa Eiko was afraid that he would put forward excessive additional conditions.

"You are not willing to give us more shares of the hard gold group, it is nothing more than to continue to maintain the independence of the operation. On that point, I can fully respect your choice.

My additional condition is that you need to give us ten enrollment places every year. These 10 places are not only limited to kindergartens, but also include elementary, middle, and high schools. ”

Kishimoto's calculation is that the hard gold group has more than 40,000 employees. Most of them are young people. In the future, there will always be problems with getting married and having children.

After the birth of a child, the next troublesome thing is the choice of school. Good schools often have limited places and many competitors.

Between work and children, parents tend to devote considerable energy and time to their children. They do nothing else but to get their children into a good school.
