After chatting for a long time, the waitress in a kimono who had entered the door in advance to ask for instructions walked out again.

After coming out, the waitress opened the door, then bowed respectfully and stretched out her hand, inviting Cao Zhiqiang and the others to enter.

After Cao Zhiqiang took Akina Nakamori and Koizumi Kyoko in, he was obviously stunned.

Because he found out that there were actually two women inside.

One of these women, naturally, is Sayuri Yoshinaga.

She was still wearing a black sleeved kimono that looked very expensive, with a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and she was seriously fiddling with the tea ceremony.

The other woman is a middle-aged woman she doesn't know.

This woman has neat short hair, wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, wears a black suit, and sits next to the tatami mat where she sits with a black briefcase, which looks very elite.

Sayuri Yoshinaga doesn't mention it first, this woman with an elite style, if you look at the dress, she is either a lawyer or a civil servant.

Fortunately, Sayuri Yoshinaga didn't make everyone wonder for too long, and after seeing Cao Zhiqiang and others coming, he first smiled and invited everyone to sit down around the coffee table, and then began to introduce each other.

"This is Sachiko Fujita." Sayuri Yoshinaga pointed to the woman in the suit next to her and said, "It's a lawyer I specially hired and a good friend of mine, and this time I came to her for the sake of the contract." ”

The female lawyer named Sachiko Fujita immediately smiled formulaically and nodded at Cao Zhiqiang and the others.

When Cao Zhiqiang nodded in response, he thought to himself, sure enough, this is a female lawyer.

Next, Sayuri Yoshinaga introduced Cao Zhiqiang, Akina Nakamori and Kyoko Koizumi respectively, and everyone has a preliminary understanding.

After getting to know each other, Sayuri Yoshinaga first poured a cup of tea for everyone in the Japanese tea ceremony, and only after drinking a cup of tea did he start talking about the merger of the firm.

Regarding the merger of the firm, Yoshinaga Sayuri didn't say much, but continued to fiddle with the tea ceremony there, and the specific negotiation matters were all done by the Fujita lawyer.

And lawyer Fujita didn't say much, just quickly took out a document from his briefcase and handed it over, so that Cao Zhiqiang, Akina Nakamori and others could carefully check it, and if there was no problem, they could sign it directly.

Under the witness of a regular lawyer, once Cao Zhiqiang and Akina Nakamori sign it, then this document can officially take effect, and then, the specific share change of the company can be handed over to Lawyer Fujita to operate specifically, so that everyone can save worry and effort.

Cao Zhiqiang took a closer look at the contract and found that the content in it was not bad, basically similar to the content he discussed with Sayuri Yoshinaga last time.

According to this contract, Sayuri Yoshinaga's Yoshinaga Office will be merged into Aiyin Office to form a new limited company Aiin Office.

A limited company, in fact, is a limited liability company, which refers to a limited liability company jointly owned by a limited number of shareholders.

Unlike Japanese companies, Japanese companies are required to disclose shareholder information and shareholding structures, while limited companies are not.

Another difference is that since the company is a joint-stock company, the highest decision-making level of the company is basically determined by the number of shares.

In other words, the person and group with the most shares basically automatically have the highest decision-making power, unless the person and group with the most shares give up their power.

However, the power structure of a limited company is basically discussed among shareholders, and many of them discuss the internal power structure in advance, and then fall on the internal contract, and then manage the company according to the rights structure set by the internal contract, not completely according to the number of shares.

In addition, once a company has a decision, it must be made public, while a limited company does not need to.

The same is true for internal financial issues, which must be disclosed by the company, but not by the company.

Therefore, in terms of concealment, the concealment of limited clubs is stronger.

For example, Cao Zhiqiang's previous white glove, Dadong Investment Company, is actually an investment company with the nature of a limited club.

Only such a company is suitable for doing some highly concealed operations.

It is based on this principle that the Aiyin Office established by Cao Zhiqiang before became a limited company, rather than a company.

On the contrary, Sayuri Yoshinaga's office is a company with the nature of a real individual business, similar to the self-employed in China.

And the nature of Sayuri Yoshinaga's personal firm is purely convenient for personal activities and reasonable tax avoidance.

Originally, Cao Zhiqiang thought that when Sayuri Yoshinaga's office was merged, he would change Aiyin Office into a company.

However, after some explanation by the Fujita lawyer, I realized that for them at the moment, a limited company is the best, and in the case of a company, it is not necessary or suitable at the moment.

Therefore, this merger will still maintain the model of a limited club, so as to protect the privacy of the company and the artist to the greatest extent.

In other words, after the merger, the nature of the company remains the same, it is still a limited company model, and the name still has the word firm, but this firm is just a name, which is different from a firm with the nature of an individual business owner.

Yes, a Japanese office is just a name, and it can be either a limited company, a limited company, or a self-employed person with the nature of a human resources owner.

It's just that generally speaking, most of the people with law firms refer to the kind of self-employed individuals who are individual business owners, so after a long time, everyone has two impressions, that is, the firm is a small company run by an individual, but in fact, these are fundamentally different things.

The reason why there is a flood of private offices in Japan is that if a person's personal income is too high, opening a personal office can exempt a lot of taxes, which is a good way for high-income people to avoid taxes reasonably.

However, the disadvantage is also obvious, that is, the business scope and investment scope of individual firms are limited, and it is not as easy as limited companies and co., ltd. to expand indefinitely.

If it is just convenient for work and reasonable tax avoidance, then it is enough for an artist to open a private office, such as Sayuri Yoshinaga, who did this, and Kyoko Koizumi and Akina Nakamori, who had stiff wings in their previous lives, later also opened their own offices.

When you join a large firm, you are generally a newcomer who has little fame and strength, so you need to rely on the energy of the firm to package yourself and get a good job.

But once the artist's wings are stiffened, he usually breaks away from the shackles of the original office and starts a personal office, after all, it is more free.

From this point of view, it is generally uncommon for Sayuri Yoshinaga to merge his own Yoshinaga office into the newly established Aiin office.

After all, Sayuri Yoshinaga is a living signboard herself, and she doesn't need any firm to introduce her work.

On the contrary, it is Aiyin Firm, although it has made a lot of achievements recently, and its financial situation is ridiculously good, but after all, it can't be compared with Sayuri Yoshinaga.

After all, once the company merges, Sayuri Yoshinaga's artist contract is usually automatically merged into Aiyin Studio, which is equivalent to using Sayuri Yoshinaga's personal fame to elevate the status of Aiyin Agency, not the other way around.

Of course, it would be reasonable if Sayuri Yoshinaga could get more benefits after the merger.

That's exactly what happened, at least on the surface.

According to the contract, after the merger, Sayuri Yoshinaga will own 25% of the shares of Aiyin Firm, gain a seat on the board of directors, and the position of president.

At the same time, Sayuri Yoshinaga has the right to decide on her own contract.

To put it simply, Sayuri Yoshinaga not only controls the management of the new company on the surface, but also her own contracts are not restricted and can come and go freely.

In this sense, it is not wrong to say that Sayuri Yoshinaga swallowed the Aiyin Office.

Akina Nakamori, the former president of Aiin Office, was changed to the position of vice president and director, and she still served as the company's legal person.

In short, according to this contract, after the merger of the company, Cao Zhiqiang will still be the chairman, owning 51% of the firm's shares.

Sayuri Yoshinaga owns 25 percent of the company's shares and is also the president.

Akina Nakamori owns 24% of the shares and also serves as vice president.

The chairman of the board of supervisors and the like are not established for the time being.

It's all a change on the surface.

After the merger, on the surface, Sayuri Yoshinaga is the president, holding the highest management rights, and has the most power in the company.

But in fact, because Cao Zhiqiang has an absolute majority of the shares, it is really necessary to forcibly convene a board of directors and use the absolute majority of shares to remove the president.

Of course, if you really do this, it will be to tear your face, and Sayuri Yoshinaga will probably be able to slap the table and leave directly, and there is no penalty for breach of contract in the company's contract, so Sayuri Yoshinaga is free to come and go.

In addition, in private, Sayuri Yoshinaga doesn't like to manage mundane affairs at all, so the actual management of the company is actually in the hands of Vice President Akina Nakamori.

In other words, this company merger, on the surface, is Sayuri Yoshinaga's snake swallowing an elephant, but in fact, Sayuri Yoshinaga is using his own fame to support Aiin Office, which is a proper help.

If it weren't for Cao Zhiqiang, if it weren't for Cao Zhiqiang being Sayuri's lover, if it weren't for Sayuri Yoshinaga who loves Cao Zhiqiang to death now, he wouldn't have done this kind of thing.

But who let Sayuri Yoshinaga covet Cao's body, who made Sayuri Yoshinaga almost obedient to Cao Zhiqiang now, so he can only follow.

On the contrary, it was Akina Nakamori and Sayuri Yoshinaga, who were still in the dark about it, and really thought it was a win-win cooperation.

"If there's no problem, just sign it." Lawyer Fujita smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, Ms. Yoshinaga specifically instructed you not to cheat, and your rights have not been affected.

On the contrary, with Ms. Yoshinaga on the board, your Aiyin office will be able to go from a small third-rate office to a first-class performing arts firm in Tokyo in an instant. ”

Cao Zhiqiang put down the contract and nodded: "There is basically no problem, but there is still a small place to change." ”

"Oh?" Lawyer Sachiko Fujita was stunned, "What small place?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang pointed to Koizumi Kyoko, who had been kneeling and sitting silently, and pretended to be a small follower and said: "That's the case, we decided to give Koizumi Kyoko a part of the shares, so that she can also become a shareholder of the company." ”

"Oh?" Sachiko Fujita looked at Kyoko Koizumi, squinted and raised her eyebrows, but did not respond immediately.

"Yes." Akina Nakamori answered with a smile, "Lawyer Fujita, don't worry, the shares of Yoshinaga's predecessors will not change, but just transfer a little more shares from me to Kyoko."

Well, I have 24 percent of the shares, so I'll give 10 percent of the shares to today, and I want 14 percent. ”

Upon hearing this, Sachiko Fujita lifted her glasses and smiled: "If that's the case, of course it's fine, but can I ask a question?" ”

"Excuse me." Akina Nakamori nodded.

Fujita smiled, "Why did you give her a part of the shares?" Could it be that she wants to inject money into it? In this case, the contract must be clearly written, and it cannot be sloppy. ”

"No, it's not." Akina Nakamori said, "The shares I gave to today's son are transfers, dry shares, and there is no need to change more in terms of funds." ”

"I see." Lawyer Fujita nodded again, "In that case, it's naturally fine."

But let me ask more, what is the purpose of giving her dry shares?

Or is she of any other value?

Of course, this is purely my personal curiosity, and it is okay for Miss Nakamori not to say it. ”

Akina Nakamori smiled, "Of course there is."

I gave 10% of today's shares, definitely not because she was my friend, but because Zhiqiangjun and I both valued her potential and thought that she would definitely become a big star in the future.

Especially in acting, even I am far inferior to her.

Therefore, investing in her with shares in advance and binding her will not be wrong for her, me and everyone! ”

As soon as Akina Nakamori finished saying this, Sayuri Yoshinaga, who was fiddling with the tea ceremony, suddenly raised her head and smiled slightly: "I take the liberty of asking, if you are optimistic about this Miss Koizumi, is it Miss Nakamori's meaning, or Cao San's meaning?" ”

"That's what I meant." Cao Zhiqiang immediately answered, "Don't worry, Senior Yoshinaga, I'm not a high-spirited person, and I won't confuse favor with career."

Miss Koizumi has a lot of potential, otherwise, when I poached her, President Zhou Fang would not be so reluctant. ”

"Oh?" Sayuri Yoshinaga took a closer look at Koizumi Kyoko.

"Yes, Yoshinaga-senpai!" Koizumi Kyoko immediately stood up full of vitality and bowed nearly ninety degrees to Sayuri Yoshinaga, "Although I still have a lot of shortcomings, I will definitely go all out!" ”

Sayuri Yoshinaga smiled and nodded: "Not bad, not bad, very energetic girl." And I know that she has seen her before when she was filming, and she is really hard working and dedicated. ”

Speaking of this, Sayuri Yoshinaga clenched his right hand into a fist and said, "Koizumi-san, come on!" ”

"Yes." Koizumi Kyoko bowed again, "Thank you seniors for your encouragement, I will definitely do it!" ”

Sayuri Yoshinaga nodded with a smile: "Okay, don't be restrained, sit down." ”

After Koizumi knelt down again in an orderly manner, Sayuri Yoshinaga nodded at Lawyer Sachiko Fujita beside him, meaning that there was no problem.

Seeing Sayuri Yoshinaga nodding, lawyer Fujita smiled and said, "Okay, since everyone has no problem with this, I'll go back and change the contract a little, and then come to you to sign the contract, no problem, right?" ”

"Naturally, no problem." Cao Zhiqiang smiled and nodded.

Sayuri Yoshinaga clapped her hands with a smile: "Okay, let's do it for the merger, it's just a small matter."

Now, let's talk about more important things. ”

Immediately afterwards, Sayuri Yoshinaga put down his hand, looked at Cao Zhiqiang, and then at Akina Nakamori, and then said with a straight face:

"For example, the article of the weekly Wenchun that has not yet been listed, about the scandal report between Cao Sang and Nakamori Sang." (End of chapter)
