Chapter 58 Investigation
Since the last meeting with Yami's mother, in the next few days, as long as he has free time, Li Guangzhi's mind can't help but start thinking about Yami and her cheap father.
The reason why he is so concerned about this matter is mainly because in his heart, the status of this girl is still very important.
Since he was born again, he didn't know many people in the first place. And among these people, the ones who can really be regarded as close to him and can make him feel tied are Gao Dali and Yamei. Therefore, he must not sit idly by and watch Masami face such a miserable situation in the future.
And another reason why he is thinking about this now is that he has a curiosity about Masami's cheap father and the Fujita family behind him.
Although Li Guangzhi in his previous life could not be regarded as a **** silk, he was just an ordinary ordinary person. An old wealthy family like the Fujita family, as well as a child of a wealthy family with a strange personality like Kazuyuki Fujita, he has really only seen it in novels and TV series.
Now because of Masami, he estimates that there is a very high possibility that he will have an intersection with this guy in the future. Then, for this guy's background, he naturally wants to know more.
In this era when there is no Internet and no Wikipedia, it is not so simple to learn about a person or a company from public sources.
Li Guangzhi spent the morning yesterday. On the microfilm reader at the Shinjuku City Library, I took a cursory look at the Yomiuri Shimbun from the first year of Heisei (1989). However, the news about Fujita's sightseeing in the newspapers did not allow him to find more in-depth details other than some general reports such as the opening of some new inns.
In vain, he pondered this issue for a long time last night, and finally he thought of another way.
According to Masami's mother, Fujita Kanko was founded before the war, and its current scale is not small. Then it is very likely that it is a public company that has officially issued shares.
Li Guangzhi, who has been a senior retail investor in the stock market for a period of time in his previous life, knows that for a listed company, the annual annual report that is made public every year is similar to the company profile, the list of the company's senior managers, the list of the top ten institutional shareholders and individual major shareholders, etc., all of which can be accessed by the general public.
So, this morning, Li Guangzhi came to the Shinjuku City Library again. He asked the administrator to see if the library had any of the materials in place. He had already figured out that if there was no one here, then he would have to go to the Tokyo Stock Exchange in Chuo Ward and ask someone for advice.
Luckily, the municipal library actually has the annual reports of listed companies on the Tokyo Stock Exchange for the past five years.
After secretly stuffing a piece of Fukuzawa Yukichi over, the administrator enthusiastically pushed half a cart of cardboard bound files from the database in a small cart and delivered them to the edge of his seat.
Li Guangzhi first found the annual report of Fujita Kanko Co., Ltd. from the pile of files in order of name, but he was a little confused by what he found at first.
First of all, he did not find the name of Kazuyuki Fujita on the list of individual major shareholders and managers of Fujita Sightseeing, and strangely enough, there was not even a single person surnamed Fujita on both lists.
Puzzled by this, he went to check the list of major shareholders of the institution in the annual report. Then he found out that the largest shareholder of Fujita Kanko's 38.4% stake was a company called Tonghe Holding Group, and the remaining institutions with a single-digit stake were basically banks and trust funds.
So he was a little curious and began to rummage through the information related to Tonghe Holding Group in this pile of files, but the more he looked at it, the more surprised he became.
Founded in 1937, the Tonghe Holding Group, which owns four listed companies in Japan, has a registered capital of 30 billion yen. And the original founder of this company was Mitsuko Akiyama that day and Denzaburo Fujita that he mentioned.
In other words, the real core family business of the Fujita family is actually this Tonghe Holding Group Company, which started with mining and metal smelting, and is also involved in various industries such as semiconductors, environmental protection, and tourism management, with total assets of more than 100 billion yen. And Fujita Sightseeing, which was previously considered a behemoth by Masami's mother, is just a holding company under this company.
"I'll it! Lao Tzu is not so unlucky, is he? Li Guangzhi was taken aback by the results he found, and couldn't help but curse in his heart.
If he really wants to go against such a giant company for Masami, even if he is a reborn, he can't say that he must be sure of victory.
But then again, no matter how smart and beautiful Masami is, after all, she is just the illegitimate daughter of the second son of the family. As long as Li Guangzhi can build a career in the next few years and have a certain influence in Japan. The Fujita family doesn't have to tear their faces with him for such a small person.
Li Guangzhi felt that if he really had a conflict with the Fujita family for the sake of Yami in the future. Then, the most likely result is that Yami's cheap father is afraid that he will push the boat and stuff Yami over, so as to win over his own young talents who have a successful career
Moreover, Li Guangzhi also found some interesting and more reassuring content in the following inquiry.
In the annual reports of the four listed companies affiliated with the Tonghe Group, the name Kazuyuki Fujita appears on the list of shareholders of only one company, and the shares do not exceed 2%. In the list of executives of these four companies, the second son of the Fujita family only served as an outside supervisor of a newly established environmental protection company.
It can be seen that Mr. Kazuyuki Fujita, who is the second son, is only a figure who is not very valued in the Fujita family. His ideas and opinions are not expected to have much influence in the family.
After deducing this conclusion, Li Guangzhi's mood was even more relaxed because of this.
He raised his hand and looked at his watch, and saw that it was almost twelve o'clock in the afternoon, so he stretched and stood up, put the archives on the table a little tidy, and after greeting the administrator of the borrowing office, he pushed open the door of the reading room and walked out.
At noon today, he also made an appointment with the two brothers of the Sun family to have dinner and talk about things. In order to take care of Sun Dazhi's time, the meeting place they agreed to meet was at the real estate agency where Sun Dazhi was located in Banqiao District
When he walked out of the Itabashi subway station along the sidewalk of the Huanqitong Line to the Aoki Real Estate Banqiao store, this slightly familiar scene on the side of the road reminded Li Guangzhi of the situation when he and Gao Dali arrived in Tokyo on their first day.
At that time, he had no knowledge of Tokyo at all, and he chose Itabashi District as their foothold in Tokyo with the sentence Zheng Banqiao's "rare confusion", and thus met Sun Dazhi, the first friend in Tokyo. And the series of things that happened next, looking back now, can't help but give him a sense of chance and the wonder of the world.
When I walked through two intersections and came to the door of the two-story store. Before he could enter the door, Sun Dazhi had already pushed the door from the inside to usher in.
After greetings, he saw through the glass door that the bald store manager was sitting in the store, looking at him with a somewhat frightened expression, and couldn't help but smile and ask Sun Dazhi: "Brother Dazhi, how is your bald store manager doing recently?" Are you still so grumpy and love to get into trouble with others? ”
Sun Dazhi also turned his head to look at the store, and then said to him with a smile: "Hehe, this guy, after being beaten by you and vigorously last time, he has become much more honest." But he is also quite unlucky, not to mention being assigned by the head office, it is said that his wife now dislikes him and now has a low income, and is divorcing him. ”
After speaking, he said with some emotion: "I found that these low-level salaried men in the Japanese workplace are really difficult enough." I am busy going out early and returning late all day long, pretending to be a grandson in front of my boss and customers, and I have to kneel down and apologize at every turn when I do something wrong. As a result, almost all the money earned was spent by his wife. Moreover, as long as she is demoted or fired, the wife of the family will immediately divorce. ”
Li Guangzhi joked with some surprise: "Hey, Brother Dazhi, what happened to you recently, why did you suddenly start to care about the family life of the Japanese people?" ”
"Go, go! Don't talk with me here! Sun Dazhi scolded with a smile. Then, he shook his head and sighed: "Alas, the housing prices in Tokyo have fallen so much recently, and our real estate business is so bleak that we can't do it." That day, I had a drink with a few Japanese colleagues who joined the company at the same time, and when I talked about it, I was full of tears. ”
"It's better to be single like me. There are two of them who are married and still have a mortgage, just because they can't make a list now, and they get less and less commissions, and they are suspected of being like shit by their wives at home, and it is said that they have the possibility of divorce. Hey, you say, why don't these Japanese ladies have the heart to share weal and sorrow with their husbands at all? ”
"It's called going from luxury to frugality." Li Guangzhi said with some disapproval: "In the previous ten years, it was easy for the Japanese to make money, and there was so much money in their pockets that they had a fever, and these wives were used to spending lavishly. Now that they suddenly have no money to spend, how can they bear it? ”
After speaking, he said to Sun Dazhi again: "I said Brother Dazhi, since you yourself said that your business is not good now, it is better for you to simply resign and come out." Dayong and I have been waiting for you to come and join us. ”
He invited the Sun brothers to dinner and talk about things today, and one of the purposes was to completely pull Sun Dazhi into their small group. Therefore, when he heard Sun Dazhi's complaints, he immediately began to persuade him.
Sun Dazhi listened to his words, with a hesitant expression on his face, and was silent for a long time, but still did not say yes.
Seeing this, Li Guangzhi didn't say anything more. Anyway, when Dayong comes, there will be a chance to talk about this when the three of them eat together. He believed that as long as he said the plan he had in mind, the possibility that Sun Dazhi would be tempted to participate was still very high.
Not long after the two stood outside the store, Sun Dayong also arrived. Under Sun Dazhi's guidance, the three of them found a relatively clean restaurant and walked in.
