PS. Thanks to the big red envelope of the group friend "Brother Mengjiang", this is the second update, as for the third update. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ。。 Do you want to have it?

The next day, Sony's SME building.

Uesugi sat at his desk, correcting documents.

The time for Sony's annual earnings report is coming again, and last year, after such a huge change, the listing of Sony's trading platform brought a bit of good news for Sony's fiscal year: this year's profit is expected to be around 5 billion yen.

Don't underestimate the 5 billion yen, before Kazuo Hirai came to power, Sony has been losing 100 billion yen for many years in a row, and even the largest loss reached 456.7 billion yen in the year, and after the uncle-in-law came to power, Sony has achieved a slight profit for two consecutive years, which is already a small miracle.

Uesugi Soyuki sat in his chair, looking at the fiscal year report, and slowly thinking.

A few days ago, his uncle-in-law reluctantly told him that because of working capital reasons, he might still need to sell a building to solve the problem, and Uesugi Soyuki smiled on the spot: "Still selling? Didn't we sell our headquarters building in Manhattan, New York for $770 million in January? Still short of money?"

"The $770 million has not been passed to the company's account, and all of it has been used to repay debts, pay due bank debts, pay for goods, pay bonuses, and use it for innovation and reorganization in the process of production technology reform, so the $770 million has no relief for the company's liquidity, and I plan to sell part of the real estate in Gotenyama, Shinagawa District, Tokyo, including the old headquarters, to prepare sufficient liquidity. In the new fiscal year, due to the profitability of Sony's mobile phones and the promotion of electronic products by Sony's electronic trading platform, Kazuo Hirai was in a good mood and his eyes narrowed with a smile: "The Ministry of Finance estimates that it is about 150 million US dollars, as long as there is enough liquidity, there should be no need to sell more real estate in the future." ”

Hey, hey, hey, I'm still in such a good mood when I sell buildings continuously, it seems that there is something wrong, Uesugi Soyuki complained in his heart.

Of course, he knows that the sale of the building has nothing to do with Kazuo Hirai, Sony's problems have accumulated for a long time, and Sir Howard Stringer's losses for several years have reached a situation where it is difficult to recover, and now he can solve most of the debt problems by selling a part of the real estate including the headquarters building in Japan + the headquarters building in the United States + the old headquarters, and it is normal for Kazuo Hirai to be happy.

After the guidance of Uesugi Soyuki, Kazuo Hirai has found an obvious direction in the Internet era, and the profitability of two consecutive fiscal years has made Kazuo Hirai's support rate in the Sony board of directors exceed 60%, and it can be said that Kazuo Hirai, the position of president and CEO, has been extremely solid.

Many people who don't understand think that Kazuo Hirai is just similar to a senior worker or something, in fact, if you have carefully studied the system of this group company, you will find that the position of the uncle-in-law is really in power, a more appropriate analogy is that the relationship between the Sony board of directors and Kazuo Hirai is somewhat similar to the relationship between the British House of Commons and the prime minister, and the Sony board of directors can only do the appointment of the president and CEO, just like the appointment of the prime minister by the British House of Commons, if you want to change people, you have to vote no confidence to replace the prime minister, and the prime minister only needs to be on any day, then the parliament will give all the power in your hands to the prime ministerThe Prime Minister has the right to form a cabinet on his own, and even a powerful Prime Minister has the right to dissolve Parliament.

In reality, powerful presidents and CEOs, such as News Corp.'s Murdoch Corporation, Viacom's Lei Shidong, and SoftBank Consortium's Masayoshi Son, have all encountered situations where the board of directors does not match their own views, and their actions are the same, that is, to reshuffle or even dissolve the board of directors and replace them with a group of obedient ones.

Of course, Kazuo Hirai can't reshuffle or even dissolve the board of directors at any time, but it is not a problem for him to hold power.

Throwing these thoughts out of her mind, Uesugi knew that thanks to her arrival and the success of the e-commerce platform, it was particularly important for Sony to be profitable again this year, which gave confidence to investors and the board.

Kazuo Hirai, who led the reform of the e-commerce platform by Muneyuki Uesugi who proposed the proposal, received a generous year-end bonus, and the board of directors gave the two people a large number of Sony shares worth tens of millions of yen through equity incentives.

After sorting out the countless financial statements a little, Uesugi Soyuki stretched his waist, and at this time, the knock on the door remembered, and the man was not the slightest surprised: "Please come in." ”

"Brother Uesugi, I'm passing, from today onwards, I'm the second student of Nogizaka 46!" "The eldest lady Sugai Yuka jumped in from the doorway, and the girl's flushed face showed that she was happy, cheering excitedly in Uesugi Muneyuki's office.

"Congratulations on passing the audition, Tomoka, but from today onwards, your leisurely days are over, since you have chosen to be an idol, the next thing is the tiring training work and endless competition, even if you are asked to me by Mr. Sugai, I can't open the back door for you because of your family background, you know?" Uesugi Soyuki smiled and first congratulated the girl on passing the interview, but then emphasized some problems.

"Yes, I know, Brother Esugi, I will definitely work hard!" The eldest lady's mood was still very high, and in the face of Brother Uesugi's request, the girl was full of promises, as if she had been prepared for it.

"It's good if you're mentally prepared, then, welcome Tomoka to join the big family of Nogizaka 46, and I'll give you a gift!" Uesugi Soyuki took out a women's electronic watch from his drawer and gave it to Sugai Yuka: "In the future, everyone will be on the same starting line, I hope you can remember what you said today and work hard." ”

"Thank you, Brother Uesugi!" The eldest lady accepted the gift generously, and she was not embarrassed, and put it on her wrist without hesitation.

Uesugi Soyuki didn't say much, he just instructed, about the eldest lady going in and out of the Sony building with him, and asked the eldest lady to say that it was because the family sent her in for an internship that she came into contact with Nogizaka 46, so she wanted to join, and that's it.

Yuka Sugai was still in the excitement of passing, and kept saying that she was going home to tell her kitten Thom that the girl had written down Uesugi Muneyuki's instructions and left quickly.

Uesugi Muneyuki continued to work.

At noon, after a simple meal at Yoshinoya, Uesugi returned to the office, intending to take a nap in his room and prepare to read the financial statements in the afternoon, when he had just put down his clothes when his computer sounded a "ding".

An email arrived.

“。。。。。。 When Uesugi saw that the sender of the email read "Forbes Editor-in-Chief Steve Forbes," he thought for a moment and sighed, "Indeed, it's time." ”

Double-click the mouse to open the email, the content of the email is very simple: "Dear Mr. Uesugi Soyuki, on behalf of Forbes magazine, I am honored to inform you that you have been selected into the 2013 Forbes rich list, ranking 151st, with a net worth valuation of $7.9 billion, if you have any questions, please call the editorial office of Forbes magazine in the United States. ”

Last year, Facebook's stock still received a lot of attention after the sharp fall, and the stock price, which fell by more than half, began to recover, so although the shares held by Uesugi Soyuki were diluted due to financing and additional issuance, the total value was still rising because of the continuous rise of Facebook's stock price, and he still holds 9.1% of Facebook shares, and his worth has skyrocketed to $7.9 billion.

The email was attached with all the information about the Forbes list of the world's richest people for 2013, which will be released tomorrow.

Opening the attachment, Uesugi Soyuki looked at it a little, and he really didn't know what to say, he knew how terrifying Facebook's market value skyrocketed, but he really didn't expect it to be so scary.

For his level, the difference between 6.3 billion and 7.9 billion is just a number, and he thinks more about possible troubles.

With $6.6 billion worth of Facebook stock and other Google, YouTube, and Twitter stocks, he surpassed Hiroshi Mikitani, chairman of Rakuten, and Kunio Poison Island, founder of gambling pachinko maker Mikyo, to the third place on the list of Japan's richest people, and above him are Masayoshi Son, who is currently the president and CEO of Japan's SoftBank consortium with a net worth of $8.6 billion, and Masashi Yanai, who is worth $13.3 billion.

"It seems that I will not be able to live in peace again in the days to come. Uesugi Soyuki sighed, he is not a native American Jew or white, many native American Jews or whites can make Forbes deliberately lower his net worth, he can't do it.

It is foreseeable that after Forbes is announced tomorrow, his life will become "colorful" again.

Sure enough, the next day, the Forbes Group officially announced the 2013 list of the world's richest people, as he predicted, his net worth climbed again on the headlines of major newspapers and news, countless media reporters, in addition to TV Tokyo, the four major civilian television stations, NHK National Television Broadcasting Association, as well as "Yomiuri Shimbun", "Asahi Shimbun", "Mainichi Shimbun", "Nihon Keizai Shimbun" and "Sankei Shimbun" All of them sent him an interview invitation, but his personal office director, Naruo Koyama, refused all of them on the grounds that Uesugi Soyuki was busy with Sony's recent fiscal year report.

Even so, his phone was still blown up, and the bored Uesugi Soyuki simply set up no strange calls to answer, which made it much quieter.

"Sure enough, it's troublesome to know a lot of people. One morning, Chihiro Kameyama of Fujitai called him twice, and the content was nothing more than asking him to be interviewed by Fujitai, which made Uesugi Soyuki feel quite difficult.

Erika Ikuta only went to Fuji TV's late-night TV series "One Kiss Love" crew to report a few days ago, and Rina Ikoma is also going to report to Fuji TV's "Ghost Girlfriend" crew these days, and the milk group is now the time when cooperation with Fuji TV is hot, so it doesn't seem good not to give Kameyama Chihiro face, and he can only say that I am now busy with the fiscal year report, and I am not free.

It can be delayed for a while.

Not long after putting down the phone, another phone opened, and Uesugi Soyuki subconsciously picked it up: "Hello, I'm Uesugi Soyuki, I've been busy with work recently, and I don't have time to accept various invitations... ”

"Uesugi, it's me. As a result, a beautiful female voice came from the phone.

"Satomi?"
