Chapter 130: Consensus
readx;
The communication network of the "New Alliance" is very advanced and requires the use of hardware decryption equipment to enter. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Without a decryption device, it is impossible for hackers to enter the network.
In reality, the decryption device is actually a special network switch, and the terminal is still an ordinary computer, but it is much more advanced than an ordinary home computer, and it is a small data processing station.
The Hashimoto family is not short of this money, but Yasutaro doesn't know how to use a computer, and Nagisa only knows how to use it.
After sending Liu Wei into the secret room, Zhu Shou retreated.
"Do you know how to get in?"
Liu Wei sat down and shook his head. When Nagisa opened the secret room, he stepped aside, not paying attention to how Nagisa opened the secret room.
"Yumi's birth." Kantaro smiled and said, "Almost, I'll give you a basic introduction." ”
Liu Wei had known about the alliance for a long time, but when Kangtaro introduced it, he still listened carefully.
Compared with the gray-backed jackal, Kantaro obviously knows more about the situation of the "Shinshomoto Alliance" and knows more about the inside story.
Although within the Alliance, the true identities of members are kept strictly secret, and it is forbidden to contact outside the Alliance without authorization, as the factional struggle within the Alliance has become more severe, the main members of the two factions have broken this rule, not only communicating privately, but also forming internal groups.
The number one leader of the "Young Zhuang faction" is Kotaro Hashimoto.
On this issue, the gray-backed jackal is not confused. The main members of the "Shaozhuang faction" are the emerging forces that emerged after the war, representing a large number of rising stars who hope to break the traditional chaebol system and gain room for development. For these people, the primary purpose is to defeat the traditional chaebols represented by Mitsubishi, Mitsui, Sumitomo, and Fuji, and gain the ability and status to influence the capital, so as to obtain greater benefits.
It is undeniable that the vast majority of these people are for personal or family gain.
People like Kotaro Hashimoto, who put the interests of the nation first and have a long-term vision, are simply rare, and I am afraid that there will be no second one.
It is also undeniable that in order to achieve the goal, these people are all "comrades-in-arms" of Kotaro Hashimoto.
It is more appropriate to describe it as "mutual use".
"Don't trust them." Kotaro was pale and looked exhausted.
"Are you alright?"
"It's okay, I can bear this little pain."
"No painkillers?"
"You can only take one pill a day, and there are side effects if you have more." Kantaro let out a long breath, held back the pain, and said, "Those guys are all mercenary villains, but they all have use value. If you want to deal with the Iwasaki family and crush the Mitsubishi Foundation, you have to use them if the Fuji Foundation comes to clean up the mess, as you envisioned. ”
"How?"
"Build momentum."
Liu Wei nodded thoughtfully, as if he understood what Kangtaro meant.
"The Iwasaki family is nothing, in fact, as early as after the Great War, the status of the Iwasaki family was far less than before, but the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse, and it would still have a little influence for a while. The key is the Mitsubishi consortium. Kantaro paused slightly, waited until he came back to his senses, and then said, "The Mitsubishi Foundation is not only the largest consortium in the world, but also the foundation with the most sound industrial chain, and it is one of the pillars of the core industry of the company. If nothing else, half of the arms industry in this book is under the Mitsubishi Foundation. Although the major enterprises in the consortium are reading and operating, the correlation is not large, in terms of industrial structure, the consortium is just a consortium, creating a better internal environment for major enterprises, but the core of the consortium, the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi has a pivotal position and has unparalleled influence. ”
"The key is how to eliminate that influence."
"You've thought of it, and you're doing it."
Liu Wei smiled and didn't say much.
The purpose of involving the Yasuda family, involving the Fuji Foundation in this storm, and letting the Fuji Foundation clean up the mess, is to reduce the strong shock caused by the dissolution of the Mitsubishi Foundation, so that the authorities can accept this fait accompli, rather than relieve the Mitsubishi Foundation.
"You've thought it through and you've got to the point. The core industry of the Fuji Foundation is the financial industry, and its influence in the financial field is no less than that of the Mitsubishi Foundation. If anyone can fill the hole in the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi, it can only be Fuji Bank. It's just that the Fuji Foundation is no better. ”
Liu Wei sighed, he had also thought about this problem, but he didn't come up with a better way.
"There is nothing to regret, the Fuji Foundation focuses on finance, and the scale is far less than that of the Mitsubishi Foundation. If you want to swallow the Mitsubishi Foundation, you must rely on other forces. ”
"You have to think about the social reaction."
Yasutaro nodded and said, "That's the real point, and that's why I called you." The Mitsubishi consortium has millions of employees, and tens of millions of people have their families behind them. Although the Mitsubishi Foundation is unlikely to go bankrupt and at best dismembered, in the process, many people will definitely lose their jobs, and many more will be affected. The effects of the Hanshin shipwrights' strike have not yet dissipated, and if a similar incident occurs, the authorities will certainly not stand idly by, so it is imperative to maintain social stability. ”
Liu Wei knew what Kangtaro meant, and this was the role that the "Young Zhuang faction" could play.
"You should know exactly how to do it, you don't need me to remind you. Just remember what I started with and don't trust those guys. ”
Liu Wei nodded, indicating that he understood what Kangtaro meant.
Yasutaro didn't ramble anymore and started the terminal.
The terminal uses a unique system and the desktop is a 3D stereo map. Judging by the information displayed, there were more than a hundred attendees, represented by the Black Surrender. The system supports up to five people to speak at the same time, and when one person speaks, the representative's avatar will automatically brighten up to remind other participants.
There is only a code name, no name.
Obviously, these members of the "Young Zhuang faction" are very cautious.
According to Kantaro, there are many celebrities among them, as well as some owners of large enterprises, but most of them belong to the gray area like Kantaro.
It is also understandable that after the Meiji Restoration, the chaebol was formed.
Although after World War II, the economic pattern of the country was reshuffled, and the big chaebols that had helped the abuses were purged, and the most representative surname was the Mitsui Foundation, but soon after the end of the war, the Cold War broke out, and the United States revised its policy toward Japan, not only allowing the company to obtain orders for military supplies during the Korean War and helping it get out of the post-war predicament, but also tacitly acquiescing in the consortium forces that took the opportunity to raise their heads, so that the modern consortium represented by Mitsubishi quickly grasped the economic lifeline of the company.
The Mitsubishi consortium alone controls one-tenth of the country's production capacity!
Counting Mitsui, Sumitomo, Fuji, Sanwa and Daiichi Quanye, the industries under the six major consortia are equivalent to 40% of the national production capacity!
More importantly, the six major consortia control pillar industries such as finance, manufacturing, chemicals, and electronics.
Even though there are many small and medium-sized enterprises in Benben, some of which are still very famous, they either survive in the narrow cracks or form an alliance with the financial community. For example, Honda Corporation, founded by Soichiro Honda, has joined forces with the Mitsubishi Foundation to share the results of its research through Honda Motor Co., Ltd.
In addition to these two roads, there is no other way out for the company other than the six major consortia.
Although in the late 60s to early 90s of the last century, that is, during the "golden 20 years" of the company, this kind of development model provided a strong impetus for the company to break out of Asia and go to the world, making it the world's largest exporter, and creating a miracle in the history of economic development, but with the bursting of the real estate bubble, the economic myth of the company was broken, and the economic order dominated by the consortium lost its vitality and became the main factor hindering the economic development of the company. It is also one of the main reasons why it has been difficult for more than 20 years.
In the final analysis, the enterprises controlled by the consortium have lost their ability to innovate, and they have also lost their competitiveness.
This is very different from that of American conglomerates.
It is undeniable that the United States is also a consortium economy, but as early as the oil crisis in the 70s of the 20th century, the American consortium completed the transformation, mainly controlling the financial industry, allocating the development speed of all walks of life through finance, and influencing the economic development of the United States with financial and monetary policies.
The biggest advantage of this is that the US consortium will no longer get involved in the industry, which is equivalent to expanding the scope of competition.
As a result, in the last two decades of the twentieth century, many new companies such as IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Apple, and Oracle were born in the United States, and traditional companies such as GE, GM, Boeing, Loma, and Ford were also rejuvenated in the new competition. In the 21st century, Internet giants such as Facebook have emerged. These companies bring not only economic benefits, but also the absolute leadership of the United States in cutting-edge fields.
Compared with the United States, the company is not so lucky.
Because the consortium is directly involved in industrial competition, many creative enterprises are strangled in the cradle. Most of the well-known enterprises in this country are traditional enterprises that existed before the war, a few are modern enterprises that emerged after the war, and a few emerging enterprises are mainly concentrated in the service field.
In the last half century, there has not been a new company like Intel.
As a result, it is conceivable that without innovation, the global competitiveness of the company has declined sharply.
If we want to get out of this crisis, we must break the confinement of consortia, leave room for emerging companies to develop, and surpass the United States in scientific and technological innovation.
A bit of foresight, I know what the problem is, but no one dares to challenge the six major consortia, and no one has this strength.
After the discussion began, Kantaro did not speak, and Liu Wei always spoke for him.
There was nothing to worry about, the voices of all participants were processed so that no one could hear them, not even electronic devices.
As the discussion continued, Liu Wei also realized that there was indeed a group of far-sighted elites in Ben.
Unfortunately, these people are either whimsical ideologues or realists who sit back and enjoy their success, and no one wants to be at the forefront of the problem.
The discussion lasted for several hours, and there was only one conclusion: the "Young Zhuang faction" did not participate in or oppose any action against the Mitsubishi consortium.
It's very good to be able to reach this consensus.
This shows a truth: he himself is also deeply influenced by Confucian culture.
The truth that the wall is falling down and everyone is pushing, and the tree is falling and scattered, I also understand it.
