Understanding is understanding, Takegami still had to comfort: "Matsumoto-kun, don't be angry, since the matter has happened, it is useless to be depressed about it, it is better to think about how we should operate the auction in three days." And I think those directors may have inadvertently leaked this information, after all, each director has a lot of servants in their homes, and they may have overheard it and spread it. ”

Matsumoto sighed: "Hey, everyone has been in peace for a long time, and there is no sense of crisis, how can such classified information be so careless?" And at this time, why are you hiring so many servants, for fear that you will not be high-profile and will not be investigated by the US military. And you asked me how the auction will work, and how else can it be operated? Take the money and smash it! At this time, it's more money than anyone, and I hope that old guy Endo won't pick the door anymore. ”

Matsumoto received a notice from Chairman Endo that night that the information was true, and the board of directors fully supported the auction, with a maximum of $2 million, and the only requirement was that the project must be successfully won.

The reason why the board of directors of Mitsubishi was able to approve this plan was that it valued the production secrets of nylon and the extensive role of nylon in military and civilian fields, and second, that the method of saving the country through this curve could indeed alleviate Mitsubishi's current embarrassing situation, regain the middle management personnel who had been scattered, and preserve Mitsubishi's vitality. In fact, the reason why Matsumoto was able to pass the cooperation plan with Downing when he first proposed it was also the biggest reason. Third, this project successfully avoided a huge contradiction in the last cooperation, that is, the ownership of the factory's management and personnel arrangements. Last time, both sides were determined not to compromise in this regard, but this time, although Mitsubishi spent a little more money, all this power belongs to Mitsubishi. Fourth, Endo and others feel that this leak is a bit unacceptable to Matsumoto. That's why we let go a little bit in terms of plan review and funding amounts, but this is definitely the lowest of all factors.

With a huge amount of money in hand, Matsumoto felt that he was much more confident, and although three days was not a long time, he did his best to send people to investigate the preparations of his competitors, and he and Takekami, Nagatomo, and others carefully studied the various situations that might occur at the auction and how to deal with them.

Three days later, at two o'clock in the afternoon, in the large conference room of the cola factory on the outskirts of Tokyo. The Allied Quartermaster Factory Cooperation Project Study Workshop was officially launched. Although everyone here knows that this is actually the auction of Downing's five factories, the name must not be written like this, and it can only be held with such a vague and hidden meeting topic. Even the partnership program had to be signed in two completely different versions. Because even if the Allied Quartermaster Department and the senior Allied officials have acquiesced in this matter, this kind of thing must not be high-profile, otherwise the Quartermaster Department will veto the project.

The parties involved in the auction have known about this situation for a long time and have understood it. Because this kind of thing is tacitly done and unspeakable. Just like the so-called bosses who participated in the auction, aren't they all just agents on the surface, the real bosses are all behind, and they didn't show up today, not to mention others, even Tang Ning didn't appear today. The person in charge of presiding over the meeting was Higashino and Okubo, who came from Okura specially, and Nanako, Downing's little secretary, was present to take notes.

Before the auction began, Higashino stood up and said, "First of all. On behalf of the preparatory team, I would like to thank all of you for coming, but not so. Please forgive me for one thing, that is, we need to check whether there are some annoying little things in the venue, so as not to leak the content of the meeting for a while, after all, this meeting is too important, please understand. ”

For Dongye's request, everyone can also understand, because the amount involved in this auction is too big, in case the situation leaks out, it will be a big trouble, so it is appropriate to be cautious, and the first one to express support is Matsumoto, who has really suffered enough from leaking secrets.

At this time, Okubo led the guards to carefully inspect the inside and outside of the venue and the participants with instruments (the instruments used by Okubo were all high-end goods borrowed from the Quartermaster Department), not to mention, it was really found that two guys with bugs were taken away by Okubo under the angry gaze of everyone, and then the guards were fully armed and guarded outside the venue.

After this little episode, Higashino made another opening remarks, and finally started the first auction of today's auction: "The first project, the Swiss Army Knife Factory, has a reserve price of 500,000 US dollars, and a guaranteed 80% share of the order, and the rest of the information in your hands." ”

The specific information of each factory has been issued after the purchaser submits the deposit, the deposit is 50,000 US dollars, just to prove the specific purchase strength of the purchaser, so as not to appear arbitrary quotation, once found, the deposit will be deducted, if there is no violation and no successful auction of any factory, the deposit will be returned after the auction.

As the first project to appear in this auction, it is neither the nylon factory with the highest reserve price nor the cola factory with the highest profit in everyone's mind, but the Swiss Army knife factory with the third highest reserve price. But the saber factory also has its own advantages, first, the saber factory is the first among all the factories under Tangning in terms of scale and capital invested in construction, because Tangning did not think about leaving Tokyo at that time, and wanted to use the saber factory as a springboard to enter the arms manufacturing industry, so the construction of the saber factory is the most concerned.

Second, the saber factory is the only one of the five factories involved in heavy industry and military industry, and if it had not been for the nylon factory, Matsumoto would definitely have grabbed the saber factory, so that Mitsubishi's heavy industry base can be preserved to the best extent.

Third, the quota allocated by the saber factory is the highest among all factories, as high as 80 percent, while the newly built saber factory headquarters in Ogura only accounts for 20 percent of the quota, which means that most of the Swiss army swords used by the US military stationed in Japan in the future will come from the Tokyo branch, and this order alone is enough to ensure the future survival of the Tokyo saber factory, although it is now spending a little more than $500,000, but in the long run, it will definitely return to its original cost within three years, and it can also take the opportunity to launder some of the black money in its hands.

Of course, this is because everyone doesn't know that the Korean War will break out in three years, otherwise, it is impossible to say whether anyone can buy 100,000 US dollars. (To be continued......)
