Chapter 662: The Death of Yakuzha
Junichi Watanabe opened the conversation box, and it was a bit of an earthbreaker.
Jin Muchen was also stunned when he heard this, although he had a good relationship with the most traditional mafia in Italy, but Japan's Yakuza is also one of the world's famous B social organizations, and he is also quite interested in learning about the secrets of this organization.
After all, he plans to go around Japan after the year, and most of the people he wants to contact when doing those underground businesses are inevitably from the B society, so he is still quite interested in the current Yakuza organization.
"Watanabe-san, can you tell me about your situation in Yakuzha."
Junichi Watanabe glanced up at Jin Muchen, thinking that he might have to deal with this guy for a long time in the future, in addition, this guy is also a colleague in the United States, and the situation in Japan is also very likely to be known to the world, and there is nothing to hide, so he simply gritted his teeth and began to talk.
It turns out that Yakuza was founded in Kobe, Japan, more than 100 years ago, but at the beginning, they were not called the current Yakuza, but just a small local community called the Yamakengumi.
Later, the Yamakengumi continued to grow and became the No. 1 large community in the Kobe area, and after that, its power began to slowly expand like the whole country.
At that time, there were many societies like the Yamaken Gumi in Japan, and the expansion of the Yamaken Group also encountered a lot of resistance, but it was also a chaotic era, and the expansion of the Yamaken Group was completely a bloody history of conquest.
At that time, the leader of the Yamaken Group was also relatively shrewd and very close to the Japanese government, and Japan was just engaged in a war of aggression against the mainland at that time. I also need these guys to go to the mainland to help them Daqian Shao. So in this way, with the support of the government, consciously or unconsciously. The Shan Jian Group gradually expanded its influence to the whole country.
Later, after the end of World War II, the predecessor of the Yamaguchi-gumi, the Black Dragon Society, was wiped out with the defeat of the Japanese military government, and many Japanese people were in a state of hunger at that time, and they had no idea of starting such a society again.
After the U.S. military was stationed in Japan, in order to facilitate management, it also supported some underground associations, the most powerful of which was. Korean laborers who were caught by the Japanese and brought to Japan.
At that time, these guys not only controlled the distribution of the supplies supplied by the US military to Japan, but also oppressed the various trading companies of the Japanese at that time, which soon aroused the dissatisfaction of the Japanese.
Under these circumstances, the founding society of Yakuza and the Yamakengumi revived in the Kobe area, and then gradually began to grow, and then began a new nationwide expansion.
And this time. Because of the bloody aspect of the previous expansion, this one is much milder. As a result of the joint membership system, Yakuza soon became the largest B-organization in Japan with more than 70 secondary associations.
However, Yakuza is not a monopoly in Japan, and there are also several similar organizations in Japan, such as the Double Love Association and the Kyoshokai Association, but the scale of these organizations is far less than that of Yakuza.
The Japanese government has also adopted the same attitude of turning a blind eye to the development and growth of Yakuza as it did before the war.
On the one hand, after the war, the Japanese government was also dissatisfied with the Korean associations supported by the Americans, riding on the necks of the Japanese.
On the other hand, it is also related to the Japanese government's unified voice for the rapid development of the post-war economy, and in the fifties and sixties after the war, Japan quickly entered a golden era of development with the support of the United States.
At that time, a large number of factories were built, and a large number of new engineering infrastructure projects were launched, because the national system had been changed to a democratically elected system by the Americans, so those big capitalists, when developing the economy, had to rely on these B social organizations.
For example, factory site selection and engineering construction projects need to be demolished @ relocated, so they will face resistance from the aborigines, and it is inconvenient for the government to come forward, but it is much easier to do it with people from Yakuza.
After the seventies and eighties, Japan's economic development was at its peak, but by this time the Japanese found that their country would soon enter an aging society.
Most of the people who joined Yakuza were young people, so they had to abandon their hardline attitude towards Yakuza because of the need to protect their population base.
So much so that Japan had to change its laws and make Japan the only country in the world where the B Society was legal.
At the peak of Yakuza's development, there were 50,000 or 60,000 core members of the community, and the peripheral personnel who relied on the entire community to eat had reached nearly 300,000.
This kind of data is extremely amazing when you think about it!
Now, due to the aging of Japan, the number of members of Yakuza is also in a stage of sharp decline, but even so, the core members of Yakuza are now more than 20,000, and the peripheral members are still about 300,000, and it is still the largest B social association in Japan.
It's just that the interior of Yakuza is not as united as it was in previous generations.
The leader of Yakuza has reached the sixth generation, and the current leader of the sixth generation is Tomoda Kanshi of the Kodo Society of Nagoya.
Kodokai can be said to be the largest association in Yakuza today, but this association comes from Nagoya in the Kanto region, and has a natural hostility to the Yamakengumi in the Kansai region.
The brief history of Tomoda is only because of the large number of people in the current Hongdao Society and the strength of the soldiers, so that he became the sixth generation of Yakuza.
And after this guy took office, he just messed around, first of all, he adjusted the membership fees of more than 70 organizations in the entire community, the original monthly membership fee was 800,000, and now he adjusted it to one hundred and one hundred thousand, and he also has to divide the distance between relatives and relatives.
The organization in Kanto, if it suits him and has a relatively close relationship with the Hongdao Society, will pay a dues of one hundred and one hundred thousand.
If it is a community in the Kansai region, or a community in the Kanto region that is not so close to the Kodo Society, the monthly membership fee will be higher.
For example, the Yoshiharu Society, which is the Watanabe Jun's family, controls the most prosperous Shinjuku area in Tokyo, and its relationship with the Kodo Society is not so close, so the prescribed membership fee is almost 2 million yen per month.
Although he was extremely dissatisfied, the Watanabe family could only take the initiative hard, after all, their family was only a second-level club with a scale of about 1,000 people, and compared to the first-level club with seven or eight thousand core members of the Hongdao Society, it was simply a weak chicken.
After all, this Tomoda Jianshi can become the sixth generation, not only because of the advantage of his large number of people in the Hongdao Society, but also because that guy is also one of the most famous and murderous community leaders of the contemporary era.
However, his behavior has also caused dissatisfaction among many communities in Yakuza, and if this guy is just adjusting the membership fee, his greed is notoriously shameless.
The Hongdao Society under him not only controls the channels for the entire organization to enter and exit the black goods, but also buys and sells by force, and there are a total of ninety-five leadership positions in Yakuzan, of which almost all the most important positions are occupied by his Hongdao members.
Moreover, he also forced the leaders of the more than 70 second-level organizations below to buy 2 million yen of daily necessities from him every month, so that after the regular meeting every month, the leaders of those organizations would laugh at themselves for opening daily necessities stores after buying daily necessities from this guy.
And this guy also asks that every year on major holidays or his birthday, the leader of each group should give him a gift of at least 100 million yen......
Such layers of exploitation, coupled with a cronyistic attitude, made the dissatisfaction with this guy in Yakuza more and more serious, but no one dared to stand up for his cruelty.
And this Tomoda Brief History's attitude towards death, until a few months ago, finally reached its peak, this guy actually pondered moving the headquarters of Yakuza from Kobe to Nagoya, but now he finally detonated a bomb in the organization.
As we all know, this Yakuza originated in Kobe at the earliest, and the headquarters has always been set up in Kobe, and now Tomoda Jianshi wants to move the headquarters of Yakuza from Kobe to Nagoya, which has pierced the fragile nerves of the Kansai bigwigs.
Originally, he was exploited layer by layer, and everyone could still endure it, but now he actually wants to move @ move the headquarters, and according to his nepotistic attitude, it seems that he is going to let his Hongdao Club always hold the position of the chief of Yakuza in the future!
This is what his uncle can bear, but his aunt can't bear it.
Originally, the position of the head of Yakuza was elected by several major clubs in the community in turn, but this brief history of Yutian actually wanted to keep the country forever and let his Hongdao Association always occupy this position, and now the other first-level clubs will not do it.
The one who made the most trouble was Kunio Inoue, the leader of the Kobe Mountain Construction Group, and this guy was also quite powerful in Yakuza.
He himself is the adopted son of the fifth generation of the purpose, and now the mountain construction group he leads also has four or five thousand people, although he is not as large as the number of Hongdao Society, but his strength should not be underestimated, not to mention that he is still surrounded by a group of Kansai faction bigwigs?
So before this, no matter what Tomoda Jianshi did, they all endured it, but now that Tomoda Jianshi and Hongdaohui actually want to be forever, they can't bear it.
Kunio Inoue has stood up many times and clearly wants to split Yakuza! (To be continued.) )
