As the neon bubble inflated, the financial world gradually fell into a frenzy.

Since '85, the Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Incident, the Daiichi Bank Financing Incident, the Toyota Trading Company Incident, the ongoing Ogami Incident, and the Fuji Bank Loan Fraud Incident.

Behind all of this series, there seems to be a figure of the extreme way flickering.

"According to the information we have found, the affairs of Toyota Trading Company are done by Sumiyoshi.

The Daiichi Bank Branch Town Financing Incident was the first to be launched at the General House, because the First Consultation Bank was worried that the shareholders would be held accountable for this matter, so it hired the General House to ensure the smooth conduct of the shareholders' meeting.

And the recently reported Ito-man incident is likely to be the mastermind behind it. ”

"Yamaguchi-gumi?" Shirakawa Kaede showed a difference in his eyes.

"Hai, because of this incident, Sumitomo Bank is said to have lost nearly 800 billion yen."

The Ito-Wan affair is another financial scandal that occurred in '90, and it was just poked out by Nikkei last month.

Itoman Trading Co., Ltd. is part of the Sumitomo Zaibatsu and although it was not fully acquired, the two were closely related.

Kawamura, the current president of Itoman Trading Co., Ltd., held a managing position at Sumitomo Bank and a confidant of Sumitomo Bank Chairman Ichiro Isoda.

The Ito Wan Trading Company, which is led by him, somehow hooked up with a person named Ito Shou Nagamitsu.

Ito Shou Nagamitsu has a radical background, and he was valued by Kawamura and held a key position at Itoman Trading Company.

Taking advantage of his business connections, Ito bewitched Kawamura to invest in art and precious metals.

He claimed that it was a safe investment to keep their value in place, and Kawamura followed his advice.

With Ito's matchmaking, Kawamura found so-called galleries or artists, and then bought works of art in large quantities.

Itoman Trading Co., Ltd. spent at least hundreds of billions of yen on these investments.

In addition, there are sightseeing projects, golf course investment, etc., and Kawamura has invested nearly 800 billion yen in total.

And where does all this money come from? Of course, I took out a loan from Sumitomo Bank.

As a confidant of the chairman of Sumitomo Bank, it was also very easy for Kawamura to use his connections to take out loans.

However, the recent Nikkei report has pushed Itoman Trading Co., Ltd. to the forefront.

Nikkei broke the news that Itoman spent a lot of money to buy the so-called artworks, and their appraisals were all counterfeits.

The price of these works of art has been increased at least several times, and most of the tourist bases and golf courses are in a state of disappointment.

If nothing else, Ito's investments have basically gone down the drain, and hundreds of billions of yen are missing.

As its affiliate, Ito-man's loss will most likely fall on Sumitomo Bank in the end.

As for the hundreds of billions that have disappeared...?

"Most of the money that disappeared from the accounts went to the pockets of various government leaders through the poles.

The former Nakasone cabinet and the current officials of the Ministry of Finance are involved.

As for that Ito Shou Nagamitsu, he is from the Yamaguchi-gumi. ”

Saying that, Ota handed over another set of photos, and Shirakawa Kaede looked at it twice.

Basically, it is a scene where government officials meet with corporate executives and Gokumichi, and most of the faces are known to Kaede Shirakawa.

Well, Shirakawa Kaede expected that few of these people's butts were clean.

But the situation of almost total annihilation still greatly exceeded his expectations.

Sumitomo lost this 800 billion yen, can it be recovered?

Don't even think about it, the money has long been divided into black and white.

Even if Sumitomo Bank knows who is behind the ghost, there is a high probability that he will suffer this loss.

Because in addition to the Itoman incident recently, the Kotani Mitsuhiro incident is most likely inseparable from Sumitomo Bank.

Mitsuhiro Kotani's use of the stock market to conduct insider operations occurred almost at the same time as the Ito-Wan incident.

He recklessly manipulated listed companies through both hard and soft means, and then bribed the government's high-end with inside information.

If the president of the company does not give in to him, Kotani even threatens to buy a professional killer to kill the other party.

In the past few years, not to mention the wanton accumulation of wealth, he even wants to confront the Ministry of Finance head-on.

However, now that the East Window incident has happened, Xiao Gu is basically under house arrest and investigation.

As a result, executives of the two banks were forced to resign, and dozens of officials of the Environment Agency were investigated.

Although the verdict has not yet been handed down, it is clear that the final outcome is not good.

And the reason why Mitsuhiro Kotani can operate the stock market is because Sumitomo Bank is supporting him.

Although Sumitomo Bank avoided answering the question of Kotani's source of funds.

However, Kotani once publicly shouted to the media, "Sumitomo Bank is the hometown of my soul", and his statements have long exposed the relationship between the two.

Because of the simultaneous Ito-Wan incident and the Kotani incident, Sumitomo Bank is now in a bit of a hurry.

The irony is that whether it is the Itoman incident or the Kotani incident, there is a pole behind it.

The difference is that Sumitomo Bank was the victim in the Itoman incident, but Sumitomo Bank was the perpetrator in the Kotani incident.

Therefore, in the face of hundreds of billions of yen that have been hacked, Sumitomo Bank is likely to be dumb and suffer from coptis chinensis.

This is the current extreme way of neon, and it dares to do something to the traditional chaebol under the chaos.

Of course, only a yakuza boss like Yamaguchi-gumi dares to make a black hand against the chaebol, and only against Sumitomo, who is relatively weak among the zaibatsu.

Mitsui and Mitsubishi, among the traditional chaebols, dare to covet it but there are almost no extremes, and even the government has to weigh the energy of these two behemoths.

As for the three consortia in the next three, it is already in chaos.

The six major consortia of neon are also divided into upper and lower, and the commonly referred to chaebol generally refers to the top three Mitsui, Mitsubishi, and Sumitomo.

They also retain the characteristics of the traditional chaebol and are a veritable family business.

The first three companies, Fuji, and Sanhe, can only be called a consortium, and they formed a powerful group organization through circular cross-shareholding.

But there is no doubt that compared with the three chaebols, the qualifications of the three consortia are still much shallower after all.

In terms of consortium management, they are also much more open than the chaebols, and can give more power to professional managers.

However, it is precisely because of this that these consortia are more vulnerable to external forces.

Fuji Bank's current fraudulent loans, Daiichi Persuasion Bank and the head office's transaction, Sanwa Bank's Toyo Shinjin joint tail sewing to industrial loans, and so on.

What is happening is the best proof of the chaos within the consortium.

It can be said that at present, at least in the financial world, the damage caused by the extreme road to the chaebols and consortia is shocking enough.

The reason why Jidao can stir up the financial market, in addition to the blessing of the political forces behind it, greed is also the most direct reason.

In the sixties and seventies, although the pole was also very rampant, it was in the golden age of neon manufacturing.

Most enterprises can almost achieve profitability as long as they operate in a safe and secure manner.

After all, the slogans of "trade country", "industry country" and "electronic country" are not shouted in vain, everyone has money to make and naturally there is peace.

However, in the 80s, with the inflation of the yen, the golden age of corporations was gone.

In order to ensure profits, many brick-and-mortar manufacturing companies entrust funds to banks or securities companies to help them achieve various financial profits in the financial market.

This is the original origin of the business funds, and these companies are entrusted to the securities industry. Tens of billions at the lowest and hundreds of billions at most.

It was also from this time that the yen seemed to become a simple set of numbers.

In the past, billions of yen and tens of billions of yen in profits could not be compared with the current hundreds of billions of operating funds.

Banks and securities companies manipulate thousands, trillions of funds, how can their internal staff remain calm?

How can the profits of tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars be compared with the hundreds of billions of funds in the financial market?

In the face of these huge sums of money, everyone will be tempted.

As a result, under the illegal operation of bank insiders, under the infiltration of Jidao in every possible way, all kinds of illegal behaviors can be seen almost everywhere.

So as a member of the banking industry, don't you have the idea of wanting to hit Beidu Bank?

It's not that they don't have it, it's that they don't know what to say.

In 85 years, Shirakawa Kaede tried his best to suppress the involvement of the Northern Metropolitan Bank in the real estate and business special gold market.

He knew that these things were either thunderstorms or gray deals.

Once the Ministry of Finance is held accountable, Arai Yu will go in and step on the sewing machine if he doesn't do it.

So for the sake of safety, Shirakawa Kaede would rather earn a little less than take a meaningless risk.

Therefore, for the obscene development of the Beidu Bank, Jidao and those who arbitrage lenders have no good way.

However, Beidu Bank's participation in several large-scale acquisitions of Shirakawa Holdings has proved its strong financial strength.

The salivating pole is a plan that makes a plan and gives birth to a plan.

Since Beidu Bank can't help it, let's try to see if we can open a road to Shirakawa Electric first.

Don't underestimate people's coveting of wealth, they can do anything to achieve their goals.

As for what Shirakawa zaibatsu to say? Jokes, Sumitomo and Daiichi Persuasion Bank, these big conglomerates dare to do it, is there anything about a nascent group that can make them jealous?

Now Shirakawa Kaede has already felt the gaze around Shirakawa Holdings.

Unexpectedly, it has entered the 90s, and Shirakawa Holdings is strong enough, but it still attracts the coveted of others.

It seems that the bubble era is far from being an era in which you can completely insulate yourself from it by trying to reduce your participation.

Madness is not only staged among the people, but also in the business and political circles.

"Ota, the head office of the house will not say beforehand. In view of the activities of the Extreme Road, let's also make more preparations. ”

After reading the information in his hand, he started assassination and fire together, and Shirakawa Kaede was shocked to watch.

These will definitely not appear in news reports because they are out of place.

"Shirakawa-san, what do you mean...?" Ota's face suddenly became extremely solemn.

Shirakawa Kaede nodded, "Just in case."

Ota and Shirakawa Kaede confirmed their gazes, then nodded quietly.

Has it finally come this far? However, the neon environment has been getting more and more turbulent lately.

The head office, which has the shelter of the Yamaguchi-gumi and Sumiyoshikai, was the first to be delivered to the door.

The old ancestor said well, one punch is opened, so as not to come with a hundred punches.

As previously introduced by Hiroshi Arai to Kaede Shirakawa, June is the date when neon listed companies hold shareholders' meetings intensively.

And most companies put the conference on the day of the middle of the month, and according to the custom, Shirakawa Electric is the same.

Because the members participating in the shareholders' meeting may come from all walks of life, major enterprises also attach great importance to the shareholders' meeting in order to maintain their own image.

Not to mention giving all kinds of small gifts to the participants, if there are reporters who come to cover them, it is even more important to entertain them.

Any news or news that is unfavorable to the club must not be reported.

Otherwise, the stock price will fall and negative news will be riddled with negative news, which will bring a headache to the operator.

Because of this relationship, there is also the soil for the survival of the general house.

Shirakawa's shareholders' meeting this year, as usual, will still be held at the Imperial Hotel.

Because of the huge scale, according to previous years, the number of people who participated in the shareholders' meeting of Shirakawa Electric is likely to reach thousands or even tens of thousands.

Therefore, it is difficult to meet the needs of ordinary venues, so you can only choose a hall or hotel with a giant auditorium.

And during the shareholders' meeting, well-known companies like Shirakawa Electric will even have reporters interviewing.

After all, there are more than 100,000 employees under the club, and only one Shirakawa Electric has a pivotal position in Neon.

For such a super-large enterprise, NHK, Fuji TV, and TV Asahi have done more than one special program.

So it would not be strange if a reporter entered the site of Shirakawa Electric's shareholders' meeting.

However, this year is different from the past, and since the beginning of June, various rumors about Shirakawa Electric have gradually appeared in the market.

For example, the company is in difficulty, and the financial report this quarter has a huge loss.

There are high-level abuse of subordinates within Shirakawa Electric and various unspoken rules in the workplace.

There is also data falsification, arbitrary dismissal of employees, and so on.

What's more, in some magazines and tabloids, there are interviews with former employees of Shirakawa Electric.

The content is probably all kinds of so-called inside information, and these newspapers carry out various reports on Shirakawa Electric under the guise of revealing secret news.

Not to mention the fact that the stock market is already volatile, these specious reports have indeed caused Shirakawa's stock price to fall by several hundred yen.

However, because some people in the market are silently absorbing the shares of Shirakawa Electric, coupled with its reputation, the stock price has fallen for a long time and then stabilized.

But no matter what, these rumors are really not a good thing for Shirakawa Electric.

In addition to the public relations department's non-stop announcements to refute the rumors, Ota is also busy trying to find out where the news came from.

In fact, you don't have to think about it to know that this must be a ghost behind the scenes.

If it is not even bad, it should be the event house and the publishing house under the headquarters house in action.

Picking up black material and spreading rumors, who else is this familiar trick?

It can be seen that Shirakawa Kaede's original sentence of "sweeping the couch and waiting" has been used as a declaration of war by the head office.

These actions of the other party were not only expected by Shirakawa Electric, but many corporate executives with some backgrounds probably also knew what was going on.

There's nothing new under the sun, neon is so big, what filth can be hidden?

"Shirakawa-san, I knew that these guys couldn't scare you at all.

They are so arrogant that they think you'll be as obedient as those gentlemen.

But as everyone knows, as the founder of the Shirakawa Group, Shirakawa-san, you don't eat this set at all.

Haha~, good! This time, we must see those guys, not all of them will choose to compromise. ”

Referring to the series of laughter on the phone, Bai Chuanfeng pinched his eyebrows with some tears and laughter.

"Tian Yuansang, don't praise anymore. I'm having a headache about this.

Because of these guys' troubles, Shirakawa Electric's stock has fallen a lot. ”

"Haha, don't think I don't know, who took the initiative to bring down the stock price.

But a word of caution, Sony and Nintendo have been eating up a lot of your stock lately.

Shirakawa Electric's operating profit is supported by solid data, and your stock is favored by many investment clubs. ”

Tian Yuanjie also hinted at nothingness, which made Bai Chuanfeng raise his eyebrows.

is worthy of being the chairman of Nomura Securities, and Shirakawa Holdings' small private actions still did not hide from them.

Why did Shirakawa Electric's stock fall? That's because Shirakawa Holdings is slowly cashing out in secret.

In January, due to the stock market crash, Shirakawa's share price also fell by more than a third.

During that period of undervaluation, Shirakawa Holdings bought back a lot of shares on its own.

Later, in May, the Nikkei re-stabilized around 30,000 points, and now the stock market seems to be doing a little bit differently in June.

It just so happened that the head office was spreading rumors again, and Shirakawa Holdings simply decided to cash out.

Even if the Nikkei index does not fall, it may also fall when the rumors about the head office ferment.

So when the rumors first appeared, the first one to throw it was Shirakawa Holdings itself, in order to cash out some of it before the stock price fell.

However, these small actions have not been hidden, Nomura Securities, one of the best in the neon securities industry.

However, it was Sony and Nintendo who were secretly absorbing the shares of Shirakawa Electric, which surprised him.

Are these two old six ready to steal their home? Unlike ah, Shirakawa Holdings' shareholding ratio has never been lower than half.

But forget it, the sneaky little actions of friends and businessmen, Bai Chuanfeng didn't pay attention to them.

The head office is the focus of attention at the moment, and although these guys are inferior, they are really a headache.

"Tabuchi-san, what do you think of the head office, and the people behind it, Koike Ryuichi, Ogawa Xun and others?"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Shirakawa Kaede is also ready to ask this well-known industry insider about his attitude towards the head office.

Hearing Shirakawa Kaede's question, there seemed to be a chuckle from Tabuchi Setsuya on the phone.

"A swarm of parasites has lost its role as a transit station, and it is only a matter of time before it dies."

"So will the other side of the transfer station care so much about the existence of the head office?"

Well? Tian Yuanjie's eyes also flashed with light, and he couldn't help but sit up straight as he leaned on the office chair.

"The rules of the game require a transfer station, but the transfer station is not a must-have house."

The same light flashed in Bai Chuanfeng's eyes, "Understood, thank you Tian Yuan-sang for your guidance today."

When you're done with this time, you'll be sure to have a drink later. Of course, please enjoy it too~"

"Haha, it's easy to say~ But Shirakawa-san, please be sure to note that the prosecutor's office has also been paying attention to the general house recently."

Before saying goodbye, Tian Yuanjie also seemed to remind him unintentionally.

Hearing the name of the prosecutor's office, Shirakawa Kaede smiled, "Thank you for the reminder~"

Hanging up the phone, Shirakawa Kaede leaned his head on the back of the chair and began to close his eyes and silently refine the previous plan in his mind.

Transfer. General House. It's really a strange existence.

But since the rules of the game require it, let's just take a look at it first.

The transit station that Tabuchi also said was the role of the current head office.

As mentioned above, some insider trading does not go through formal channels and can only be done through the head office.

If the club wants to convey benefits to a certain official, then it will first entrust it to a certain securities company.

The securities companies then went to the headquarters and through them delivered the unissued bonds to the officials.

After passing through the middle two rings, it is difficult for the outside world to find out the details even if they want to track down.

That's why the head office is still active even today under the legal strangulation.

Dirt can exist, and naturally someone needs it to do dirty work.

This is also the reason why Nomura Securities obviously has an interest in the general house, but Tian Yuanjie also looks down on them.

Nomura Securities has a deal with the head office, which is entrusted by other companies.

Forced by Party A's request, in order to get the order, the securities company can only cooperate with the head office.

Since ancient times, if you want to sit down and play, you have to follow the rules.

But now, a touch of coldness flashed in Shirakawa Kaede's eyes, and it depends on how the head office chooses next.

Although the shareholders' meeting has not yet been held, some preparations need to be laid out in advance.

Thinking of this, Shirakawa Kaede picked up the phone and dialed a number.

An hour later, Ota appeared in front of Shirakawa Kaede on time.

"Take" Shirakawa Kaede took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Ota.

"Shirakawa-san, this is."

"The contact information of some dignitaries and executives, I will take you to familiarize yourself with them one by one in the next period of time.

All you have to do is remember them and then find a way to quietly deliver the additional shares that SIC is going to issue in Mi to them.

Remember that the method must be reliable, secretive, and untraceable, and even if something goes wrong in between, the customer and yourself will not be held accountable. ”

Every word of Shirakawa Kaede made Ota's heart tighten, but then there was excitement.

Are you ready to do a big job? He Ota couldn't hold it back for a long time.

Stretching out his slightly trembling hands, Ota couldn't help but widen his eyes as he looked at the names on the list.

These people are regulars on TV news channels, and to be honest, Ota has never been exposed to these figures at the pinnacle of power.

But the more this happened, the more excited he became.

Showa boy, as it should be.

He can't wait to make the mud stick company bigger and stronger.

"Remember it's top secret, and make it a business."

After handing over the information to him, Shirakawa Kaede took care of it solemnly.

"Hay! Never give up! ”

Time has come to mid-June in a blink of an eye, and during this time, the shareholders' meeting of neon listed companies is being held intensively.

The Financial News and Yomiuri Shimbun have also spent a lot of time reporting on these things recently.

But which shareholders' meeting are these media most looking forward to? Of course, it has to be Shirakawa Electric.

In addition to being slandered by various rumors, they have a keen sense of smell and know that there are secret forces dealing with Shirakawa Electric.

One of the three royal companies in the electronics manufacturing industry, Shirakawa Electric.

And violent gangs dare to target them? There's a good show to watch now.

The reporters who didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement waited at the door of the Imperial Hotel early when the shareholders' meeting of Shirakawa Electric was held as scheduled.

At nine o'clock in the morning, as Shirakawa Kaede's car arrived at the door of the hotel lobby, the reporters' flashing lights turned on one by one.

However, because of the distance, it is a pity that they did not seize the opportunity to interview.

But it doesn't matter, as journalists, they have admission tickets, and they can also enter openly after ten o'clock.

Getting out of the car, Shirakawa Kaede had just walked to the threshold of the lobby when he suddenly ran into a somewhat familiar person.

But before he could think about it carefully, the other party took the lead and walked over with a smile.

"The contemptible people will always house Ogawa Xun, I didn't expect you to come in person, Shirakawa-san, it's really a blessing."

Looking at the smiling face in front of him, Shirakawa Kaede's eyes narrowed slightly.
