Just when the whole country was worried about the loss of two Hollywood giants in a row, less than a month later, the overseas buying action of Neon Enterprises was staged again.

In October, Mitsubishi Estate announced that it had purchased a 51 percent stake in the Rockefeller Group, owner of Rockefeller Center, for $846 million.

In other words, Mitsubishi took control of the Rockefeller Center, and wave after wave of unsettled.

Rockefeller Center is a group of buildings located in the heart of Manhattan in New York City, a city within a city consisting of 19 skyscrapers.

It is the center of the country's politics, economy, culture, transportation, education and other aspects, and it is also one of the most prosperous, developed and wealthy regions in the world.

There is the headquarters of General Electric, the headquarters of the United States Broadcasting Center, the ski resort, and the art museum.

In '87, Rockefeller Center was even recognized as a National Historic Landmark by the U.S. government.

However, such a highly symbolic building has once again been included in the Neon Enterprise.

In the face of the Western media, which is about to produce a stress reaction, Mitsubishi does not care much.

They saw themselves as a wise and far-sighted investment, and Mitsubishi intended to establish Rockefeller Center as an international business and cultural center, while also showcasing Japan's economic power and cultural status.

Akio Kobayashi, chairman of Mitsubishi Land, replied to an interview with reporters, "We are not here to steal something, but to share something."

Through this acquisition, we hope to enhance the friendship and cooperation between Japan and Iran. ”

Look at this gesture, it is completely the business of the broad lord taking care of the younger brother.

What cultural invasion, what symbols of the rice country were bought?

I, Mitsubishi, bought the Rockefeller Center, which is something that you Rockefeller Group cannot ask for, and you should thank me.

To be honest, Mitsubishi, as a buyer, is not too much to have such a straightforward attitude, after all, he took out real money.

However, at this time, because of the neon explosion of the purchase, the United States has long been full of bad feelings for the latter.

Therefore, Mitsubishi's statement, instead of gaining the understanding of the media in the United States, brought greater side effects.

However, the North Mi media's crusade against neon continues, but Shirakawa Kaede's attention has already shifted to neon domestically.

Although because of Sony and Mitsubishi, Shirakawa Holdings' acquisition of Paramount has once again been put on the table.

However, his original promise to the Western media was also fulfilled, and the local team in North America was hired to manage Paramount, and the corporate system remained unchanged.

These have allowed Shirakawa Paramount to get through the run-in period of the first few months, so Shirakawa Kaede doesn't care much about the repetition of the old words in the media.

Will Paramount's follow-up management Shirakawa Holdings intervene? Of course, but not in the immediate future.

In order to avoid touching the sensitive nerves of the Chinese people, he will quietly move after the tuyere.

Otherwise, there are no people of their own who enter Paramount, and it is inevitable that the other party will disobey after a long time.

Later, after Sony acquired Colombia, it suffered a lot of dark losses.

The amount of money lost in just a few years is almost the same as the price of the original acquisition of Colombia.

With such a huge pit, how could Shirakawa Kaede repeat the mistakes of the past.

Therefore, the intervention of Paramount is a necessary action, at least the management must firmly grasp it in its own hands.

Of course, this point will be put aside for a while, but the domestic Bank of Japan has begun to work again.

Just this past October, the Bank of Japan (BOJ) announced another interest rate hike, from 3.25% in early May to 3.75%.

Along with this policy of raising interest rates, the Ministry of Finance has also issued a notice to financial institutions that all banks and other financial institutions need to control the scale of real estate loans.

This is a simple sentence, other banks did not take it seriously, but Beidu Bank immediately followed up and began to implement a loan tightening policy.

Hiroshi Arai is worried about how to deal with the loan requests of those regular customers who come to the door, well, isn't there a reason now?

The notice of the Ministry of Finance, the Northern Metropolis Bank has no choice, so it can only be honestly complied with.

In fact, the Ministry of Finance only issued this announcement tentatively, but there is no detailed data explanation as for the specific restrictions.

Because the Ministry of Finance is also divided over this matter, they are prepared to verbally restrain the market to regulate itself.

Unfortunately, although there was another wave of interest rates this time, the stock market only fluctuated slightly, and then continued to rise violently.

As for the property market, it has not been affected by this interest rate hike policy from beginning to end, and continues to run wildly.

Although there is little discussion about the Bank of Japan's interest rate hike, Shirakawa Kaede has already felt the chill in advance.

It's been less than half a year since the last rate hike, and as far as he knows, Mieno Kangsang is still in office.

In other words, these two consecutive interest rate hikes are entirely the idea of the Ministry of Finance itself.

If Mie Noyasu, who is known for his "austerity advocacy", what kind of situation did he look like after he became the president of the Bank of Japan?

Shirakawa Kaede could already imagine the arrival of the thunderstorm, no, in fact, the dark clouds in the sky above his head had begun to condense.

Why did the Ministry of Finance suddenly change its attitude and start cutting interest rates twice in a row in less than half a year?

Because the Ministry of Finance has made a statistic near the end of the year, the debt in the neon economy has accounted for 90% of the total!

The whole country is playing "drumming and passing flowers", and the whole neon is "getting rich first and exploiting the rich later".

How to understand this sentence? To put it simply, the current neon economic numbers are too watery, and they are full of bubbles!

The money of Neon is basically emptied by the stock market and the property market, and people's so-called assets are accumulated through housing prices.

Behind these assets, the high loans belonging to the bank have not been eliminated, and now everyone is copying the land with loans.

Don't look at the number of houses in your hands, in fact, if you remove the loan, the assets will shrink by 90%, which is the current neon.

It seems that the middle class and capitalists are carnivaling, but the people at the bottom can't open the pot and can't afford to buy a house.

The slogan of "100 million middle class" shouted before, is that true?

Impossible, the bubble years neon like a large number of people at the bottom.

At the same time, government data also shows that the birth rate is declining.

The population slowly decreased, and there were not as many people who needed land after that.

There are fewer people buying houses, so can the current high land prices still be supported?

This is a question that even children know.

And because of the inflow of hot money into the stock market and property market, the loan data of the physical manufacturing industry has fallen to below 25%, while the real estate industry has soared to more than 40%.

Because everyone went to speculate in stocks and real estate, coupled with the appreciation of the yen, a large number of neon factories could not work.

The entrepreneur took the money from the bank and put the factory in Southeast Asia. Then dump cheap products in the country, which in turn leads to a sharp increase in the unemployment rate in the country.

If this continues, Japan will collapse and the country will go bankrupt!

To put it bluntly, the prosperity of the stock market and the property market is like a castle in the sky, and without the support of the physical manufacturing industry, the bubble will burst sooner or later.

And the $1,500 trillion bubble, the neon government takes the lead to support the bottom?

Not to mention neon, the whole world combined may not be able to hold it.

So this bubble is not that the neon government doesn't want to save it, but it really can't save it.

Since it can't be saved, let's raise interest rates quickly, let the speculative market shift positions, and slowly eliminate the bubble to soften the property market.

But unfortunately, at present, the effect is not very ideal.

In addition to the Beidu Bank, which responded to the call of the Ministry of Finance, other major financial institutions are still indulging in the dream of a prosperous property market.

However, it is not that no one is aware of the abnormality of the situation, and those overseas capitals have the most sensitive sense of smell.

The BOJ's two rate hikes have already made them feel a little unusual, and now everyone is waiting to see what happens.

Looking at the follow-up actions of the neon government, if the interest rate is raised again, it will be withdrawn in advance.

They came to Neon only to make money, not to support the Neon government.

So if the wind is not in the right direction, run immediately.

Of course, the people of Neon don't think so, they still believe in the two myths: "The stock market will not fall, the land will not fall." ”

Except for a few who smell the crisis, more people are intoxicated with the happiness of the "bubble" and cannot extricate themselves.

Considering the special situation here in Neon, Shirakawa Holdings is also accelerating the pace of overseas investment.

Shirakawa Motors, which decided to be established in Huaxia last year, has already been implemented this year.

Because of the previous investment in Shirakawa Electric, Shirakawa Holdings also maintains a good cooperative relationship with the local government.

Therefore, in terms of the location of the main engine factory, Baichuan Automobile still chose Guangdong Province.

So with the completion of a series of review processes, at the end of last year, the brand of GAC Shirakawa has been hung up.

In fact, in the original time and space, GAC was not established until the 90s.

However, in recent years, with the settlement of Shirakawa Electric Appliances here, the financial situation of Guangdong Province has also improved greatly.

With the growth of overseas export business and the gradual development of the local market, Shirakawa Electric has also brought a huge amount of wealth to the local government.

Because of the money in his hand, Guangdong Province also swelled his ambitions after hearing about Baichuan Holdings' plan.

So as soon as the two sides combined, Guangdong Province simply decided to build its own car brand.

In this context, GAC came into being.

The shares are still the old rules, GAC 51%, Shirakawa Automobile 49%.

This is a necessary condition for entering Huaxia, and Shirakawa Kaede has no intention of changing it.

After all, he is here to make money, not to fight.

Besides, Shirakawa Automobile is also a grass creation, and Volkswagen has to bow its head when it comes, so why is it special.

In this way, after the two rookies negotiated, GAC Shirakawa officially established a factory in Yangcheng.

Of course, the construction of the main engine plant still needs to rely on Subaru for support, and Shirakawa Holdings and GAC cannot handle this.

According to the plan, the first phase of the plant is expected to produce 150,000 vehicles per year, and Subaru will first establish two demonstration production lines.

GAC is responsible for the rest of the production capacity construction, and as for the design of the model, it is similar.

The Shirakawa Automobile R&D Center will still be located in Yangcheng, and it is being built faster than the factory, and now it has its own office location.

The initial designers were all from Subaru, but GAC hired a lot of mechanical talents.

They may not have been exposed to automotive design, or they may have remained in the theoretical stage.

But without exception, everyone's enthusiasm for learning was amazing, even the Subaru employees who came with the group were surprised.

Their hard work and tenacity made the Subaru employees, who were initially disdainful of it, slowly begin to be convinced.

The first model that Shirakawa is preparing to launch is a modification of the original Subaru 1000.

It has made certain technical updates in the engine and the original version of the neon to meet the geographical characteristics and use needs of China.

And this magic version is named Starlight, which means Subaru star.

This model is simple to manufacture, and because it is designed with the previous foundation, it is also suitable for everyone to practice.

It is expected that it will be officially launched in Huaxia in 91, and it should have been adjusted by the main engine factory at that time.

With this investment of nearly 500 million US dollars, Shirakawa Kaede does not know what the result will be, but presumably there will be a new brand in Huaxia's automobile market in the future.

On the other side of the sea, when it was busy here, Neon once again came to a turning point of fate.

Mieno Yasusan, known as the "Heisei no Kihei", officially became the new president of the Bank of Japan in December.

Boom~, there is lightning streaking across the neon sky.
