Traveling through the Tokyo bubble era

Chapter 478: Experience high-level green tea

After Nakano Shigemasa finished talking about the good news about Akita County, he immediately reported another thing.

That is the current status of Canada’s Husky Energy acquisition.

Tohoku Energy's acquisition team began contacting Husky Energy before Hideki Hanyu made the acquisition.

As for Li, the richest man in Xiangjiang, he actually joined the acquisition later.

It's just that the richest man, Li, has extraordinary methods and takes the roundabout investment route of the Royal Bank of Canada.

He first invested in the Royal Canadian Bank of Commerce. In order to circumvent Canada's investment restrictions in the financial industry, he even let his son become a Canadian citizen.

Royal Canadian Bank of Commerce owns 9% of Husky Energy. With the help of this shareholder, Li Capital has an advantage over Northeast Energy from the beginning.

Last year, Northeast Energy was affected by the turmoil of layoffs and military orders. The acquisition team lost support from the headquarters. Coupled with the pressure from Mr. Li, the company was ready to give up and cancel the acquisition of Husky Energy.

At that time, Richest Man Li saw that he had the winning ticket in hand and was about to win the acquisition.

Therefore, the richest man Li was anxious.

Even though the richest man, Li, was afraid of the strength of the Mitsui Consortium, he did not want to give up easily.

But it happened that at this time, the matter of Husky Energy was noticed by Hanyu Hideki, who planned to take over Tohoku Energy.

But it is a pity that Hideki Hanyu's attitude is more determined than the richest man Li.

Richest man Li dared to bid, and Hideki Hanyu dared even more.

In another time and space, Richest Man Li took advantage of the sluggish world energy market to increase his stake in Husky Energy to more than 70% at most.

Hanyu Hideki decisively let the Mitsui Consortium take the blame.

Then it was in this situation that the richest man Li made his final struggle.

The bids from both parties for Husky Energy started at US$400 million and went all the way up to US$500 million.

After all, once the acquisition failed, not to mention the waste of time and manpower, just the favors and expenses consumed in raising funds would be enough to make him feel distressed.

But it doesn't matter. Compared with the benefits brought by the acquisition of Husky Energy, the extra small target is nothing at all.

But he happened to meet Hanyu Hideki, a cheating time traveler.

On the other end of the phone, Nakano Shigemasa replied, "Okay, President."

But no matter what the relationship is, with tens of millions of dollars in benefits, it becomes a bit worth mentioning.

What Nakano Shigemasa is now reporting to Hanyu Hideki is that Mr. Lee has decided not to make any more offers.

Why is Royal Bank of Canada willing to help Richest Man Li?

However, the richest man Li can no longer keep up with his own funds.

Hanyu Hideki also had this intention.

markup.

I thought that now that the energy market is sluggish, Husky Energy, the buyer of this money, would be a sure bet. Even if there was competition, it would not be possible for him to dare to buy the bottom like him.

After all, today's international oil prices are down, and Husky Energy continues to suffer losses. Apart from Northeast Energy, there are basically no opponents willing to compete with Mr. Li.

When Hideki Hanyu heard this figure, he thought that because of the competition between them and the richest man Li, it was more than $100 million more expensive than the original acquisition of Husky Energy by the richest man Li in time and space.

When the purchase price approached US$550 million, Mr. Li finally had no choice but to give up after feeling the firm attitude of Northeast Energy.

However, Tohoku Energy, under the command of Hideki Hanyu, remains unchanged in response to changes.

The reason Husky Energy investors are willing to sell their shares is to make money and recoup their investment.

"The exact news we have received is that Xiangjiang's acquisition team has decided to leave Canada. We will acquire 54% of Canada's Husky Energy shares for US$540 million."

Although the richest man Li is known as a billionaire, that is net worth, not cash.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki ordered, "Complete the acquisition as soon as possible, and the cost will be used by Mitsui to purchase the military industry."

"By the way, Royal Bank of Canada still holds 9% of Husky Energy's shares. Let's ask them if they can sell it. We are willing to buy it at the same proportion."

This led to the meeting Hanyu Hideki had at the Fanling Golf Course when he passed by Hong Kong.

The richest man, Li, already had quite a lot of connections in the Commonwealth, and with the help of the Royal Bank of Canada, he had the upper hand and the initiative in the acquisition.

Then things are simple.

Continue to increase prices resolutely.

Since the richest man Li has now withdrawn, Hideki Hanyu doesn't mind replacing the richest man Li and helping the Royal Bank of Canada.

No matter what tricks Mr. Li makes, I will only use one trick.

Although the richest man, Li, has connections and connections, he also has the help of Royal Bank of Canada.

It's not about taking care of anyone's relationship.

After all, he has tried his best every time to increase prices, but Northeast Energy keeps up without hesitation.

Before the deal was concluded, he decisively used the channels of Mitsui Financial Department to let Northeast Energy's board of directors stabilize the acquisition team first.

It’s not because Li, the richest man, promised that as long as Husky Energy’s acquisition is completed, he will bid to buy out Royal Bank of Canada’s shares and help the other party get out of Husky Energy’s quagmire.

In order to acquire Husky Energy, the richest man Li raised more than 3 billion Hong Kong dollars, nearly 500 million U.S. dollars, in Hong Kong.

After buying shares in Royal Bank of Canada, it's time to start selling to other shareholders.

After saying this, his phone call with Nakano Shigemasa ended.

He looked at Yasuko Sawaguchi, who was sitting beside him and accompanying him obediently.

Hideki Hanyu waved.

The beauty came over immediately, "Xiushu-kun, is something wrong?"

Hideki Hanyu took the beauty into his arms and said, "It's okay, I just want to hug you."

Hearing this, the beauty happily hugged Hanyu Hideki.

Feeling the beauty's warm and soft body, the scumbag lowered his head and kissed her carefully.

Just when the two of them were about to fall in love, there was a sudden knock on the door.

"President, there is something over in Osaka that I need to report to you."

When Hideki Hanyu heard this, he immediately let go of Yasuko Sawaguchi, whose eyes were blurred, patted the little beauty's buttocks and said, "Be good, I will love you again in the evening."

"Hmm~"

The beauty responded with a charming voice, which almost made the scumbag lose control.

After all, what he liked most about Yasuko Sawaguchi, apart from her appearance, was the beauty's enchanting voice when she was being flooded.

Fortunately, he still knew that business was important and did not transform into the beastly president from JUL on the spot and start misbehaving in the office.

"Come in." He called the people outside to come in.

After the subordinate came in, he first placed a fax in front of Hanyu Hideki.

Then Hui reported, "President, the investment has been negotiated with the Osaka Chemical Products Research Institute. Yunshang Technology invested 2.7 billion yen and obtained 85% of their shares."

Hideki Hanyu was reading the fax document at this time, which was the main content of the investment contract.

Osaka Chemical Products Research Institute is the company that previously sought help from the Xinxiang Chamber of Commerce to develop a new type of controllable polymerization photoresist technology.

Hideki Hanyu remembered that photoresist seemed to be very important in the future, so he decided to invest. It didn’t cost much anyway.

Putting down the copy in his hand, Hanyu Hideki said, "I know about this matter. You have done a good job. If there is anything that needs to be dealt with in the future, just let President Honda Takeshi be responsible."

"Yes, President, I will take my leave now." The subordinate replied.

"Go and do your work." Hanyu Hideki said.

After his subordinates left, Hideki Hanyu learned more about Hanyu's investment.

In fact, Hanyu Investment, as a pure investment holding company, basically does not involve any management of the shareholding companies except financial accounts.

Therefore, there is actually not much work that the club needs to deal with.

Hideki Hanyu does not need to interfere with some small matters, Honda Kazushi will handle them on his own.

Therefore, Hanyu Hideki was not too busy all morning.

By the time lunch was over, the club had prepared a team to negotiate with Toshiba.

A total of five people followed Hanyu Hideki to the Toshiba headquarters in Minato City.

Since the appointment had been made in advance, and with the help of the director I met last night, Toshiba also prepared a docking team in advance.

And since Hideki Hanyu came in person, Toshiba even sent current president Suichiro Watari to accompany him.

According to tradition, the two parties did not talk about the real purpose of the trip at the beginning, but were polite to each other.

From Hideki Hanyu's perspective, the mental state of Suichiro Watari, the current president of Toshiba, is really not good.

But considering the pressure Toshiba is facing now, the other party's situation can be understood.

Over in America, members of Congress have begun to show off their acting skills and smashed Toshiba products in the Congress.

Historically, President Sugiichiro Watari took office in April last year and was dismissed in July this year. In just one year, he became the scapegoat.

After the polite courtesy was over, Hanyu Hideki stopped using official accent.

Instead, he directly stated his intention, "President Watari, I think you also know our purpose. I plan to buy 30% of Toshiba's shares in the Shining Research Institute."

"I don't understand Chairman Hanyu's approach. Don't we cooperate very well?" Watari Sugiichiro asked.

very good?

Hideki Hanyu wanted to say, you Toshiba also have the nerve to say such things.

Why was the Shining Research Institute established? During its operation after its establishment, Toshiba did so many things that hindered its development. Did Toshiba not have any B numbers at all?

Of course, that sounds cool to say.

But as a mature businessman, it is impossible for Hanyu Hideki to say such things that will bring negotiations to a deadlock.

In the final analysis, he just wants to take advantage of the situation and swallow up the patented technology related to flash memory so that he can profit in the future.

For money, he gave a very direct answer to Suichiro Watari, "President Watari, I just don't want to be implicated by Toshiba."

No matter what you say, stop there.

Toshiba is now fully sanctioned by America, and seeing that the sanctions will be further escalated, it is natural for Hanyu Hideki to want to cut off the connection between Toshiba and the Shining Research Institute at this time to avoid causing harm to Chiyu.

"But……"

Watari Sugiichiro hesitated to speak, wanting to defend himself, but thinking about Toshiba's current situation, he felt that nothing he said was convincing.

"President Watari, it seems that you are very aware of Toshiba's current situation. It is also a good thing for Toshiba to temporarily hand over the Shining Research Institute to me and Mitsui."

Hideki Hanyu continued.

"How do you say this?" Watari Sugiichiro asked

“Neither I nor Mitsui Bank has the ability to produce semiconductors, so no matter how marketable the Shining Research Institute’s technological achievements are, given the relationship between Mitsui Consortium and Toshiba, our first partner must be Toshiba.

Therefore, when Toshiba is in turmoil, keeping a fire alive for the time being may be the key to helping Toshiba get out of trouble in the future. "

Hanyu Hideki's words are sincere and beautiful, and he seems to be thinking about Toshiba.

But the fact is.

As long as he gets a controlling stake in The Shining Research Institute, it won't be up to him to decide who he will cooperate with.

Toshiba? If you are unable to protect yourself, you may not be able to cooperate in a short period of time.

However, Hanyu Hideki's seemingly sincere words still moved Watari Sugiichiro.

Of course, Watari Sugiichiro can achieve the position of president, and relying solely on words to impress him will not allow him to make the final decision.

The Shining Research Institute is now in a very awkward position within Toshiba.

At the request of Hanyu Hideki, funds must be continuously invested, which caused great dissatisfaction at the Shibaura Research Institute headquarters.

After all, Fujio Masuoka was originally within Toshiba, but he was not favored by Toshiba's R&D department because of the direction of R&D.

Last year, at the strong request of Hanyu Hideki, the Shining Research Institute increased the bonuses given to researchers, which aroused strong dissatisfaction at the Shibaura Research Institute headquarters.

As the saying goes, don't worry about scarcity but inequality.

Today, within Toshiba, there is growing dissatisfaction with the Shining Research Institute.

Even though flash memory technology has gained certain benefits from its cooperation with Intel,

But the more this happens, the more conservative forces within Toshiba hate The Shining Research Institute. After all, Toshiba still relies on DRAM storage technology to make the bulk of its profits in semiconductor storage. Before being sanctioned by America, it was able to create 200 million yen in profits for Toshiba every day.

It can be imagined how huge the number of people involved in the DRAM storage interest chain within Toshiba is, and how powerful the power they form is.

In this case, unless the market is completely disrupted, how can these people make Fujio Sugaoka's research and development direction become the mainstream of Toshiba and then divide their rights and interests?

This is a big reason why Fujio Shigaoka was squeezed out at Toshiba.

Today, The Shining Research Institute is not popular within Toshiba, and it is precisely because of this.

You have to say that flash memory technology is the future.

Sorry, no one can prove it at this time.

And even if it can be proven, so what, the current beneficiary groups of the technical route are united and opposed for their own interests, and unreasonable exclusion is the only result.

Considering these reasons, and the fact that Toshiba is indeed in a precarious situation now, Suichiro Watari had actually reached an agreement with the board of directors before he came.

He seemed to have thought about it for a long time before replying, "I hope this transaction will not change our good cooperative relationship."

The cooperation mentioned by Suichiro Watari is naturally the cooperation between Elf Entertainment and Toshiba.

"Of course." Hanyu Hideki agreed with a smile.

Having said that, he was thinking that it would be necessary for Elf Entertainment to decouple from Toshiba in the future.

Toshiba's products are banned in America. In this case, Elf Entertainment does not intend to accompany Toshiba to the end.

Cooperation?

When the time comes, he would rather find a South Korean company than Toshiba.

He has no interest at all in saving the neon semiconductor industry.

But after what he and Sugiichiro Watari said, their mission as high-level officials was completed.

As senior executives, what they want to discuss is whether to sell or not.

As for how to sell it, how much to sell it for, and what are the additional conditions, those are all things that subordinates should discuss.

But it can probably be judged that this transaction will not be too cheap.

Hideki Hanyu initially invested 3.4 billion yen to acquire 45% of the shares of The Shining Research Institute.

But now it is impossible to buy 30% of Toshiba's shares even at this price. It is conservatively estimated to cost 6 billion yen.

For Toshiba, its investment in The Shining Research Institute will definitely be a huge profit for the time being.

After all, they just came up with some "insignificant" technology and a very small amount of funds.

The total actual investment is estimated to be less than 200 million yen.

A profit of more than 30 times, even the current stock market is not so profitable.

However, for Hanyu Hideki, taking over the Shining Research Institute, which holds a large number of flash memory patents, for 6 billion yen is also a huge profit.

In short, both parties feel that they are not at a loss, and the deal is expected to be concluded quickly.

Next.

Without chatting much with Hanyu Hideki, Watari Sugiichiro said that he was busy with work and politely said goodbye and left.

Hanyu Hideki didn't stay too long. After briefly explaining to his subordinates, he also left.

However, he did not go home immediately. He sent Yasuko Sawaguchi back to Chiyoda District first, and continued driving to Chuo District.

In an office building near the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Hanyu Hideki met Jinbo Eiichi, whom he had not seen for a long time, and Honda Honda, who had not invested in Hanyu in the morning.

"Boss, you are finally willing to come see me."

The moment he saw Hanyu Hideki, Jinbo Eiichi ran over to ask for help.

Judging from his rosy face, he looked completely different from the decadent look he had in America before. It was obvious that he was having a good time recently.

that's the truth.

Jinbo Eiichi now has a lot of money in his hands, making trouble in the Neon Securities and foreign exchange markets. Taking advantage of the good market, it can be said that he helped Hanyu Hideki make a lot of money.

Of course, Hideki Hanyu also paid this guy a hefty commission.

But this guy has temporarily learned the painful lessons of the past and did not invest his own money.

Of course, Hanyu Hideki does not guarantee how long it will take for the other party to learn the lesson.

With the current popularity of the Neon Securities market, Hanyu Hideki guessed that it would not last forever.

However, he had no objection to how Jinbo Eiichi spent his own money.

Anyway, his money is being watched by Honda Takeshi and his other subordinates.

Just invest strictly according to his instructions.

Hideki Hanyu has always had a good attitude towards people who can make him money.

With a smile on his face, he reached out and patted Jinbo Eiichi on the shoulder.

He joked, "Although we haven't seen each other during this time, I heard that you have been dating a girlfriend recently. What kind of girl is she? When are you considering getting married? You and Yata-san are classmates, and he now even has a son."

When Jinboying heard Hanyu Hideki's words, he rarely showed an embarrassed expression.

"Her name is Kyoko Sato. She is from Iwate Prefecture. She just graduated from Waseda Economics Department and now works at the fund investment club upstairs..."

Seeing the affectionate look in Jinbo Eiichi's eyes when he spoke, Hanyu Hideki could guarantee that this guy was definitely moved by his true feelings.

However, he remembered that when he first rented this building, the companies in the building were all well-established.

The economics department at Waseda University is already very good, and you can even join the fund company in this building.

Either he comes from a famous family and has an extraordinary background, or his abilities are too outstanding.

But no matter what it is, would such a young elite woman in the workplace take a fancy to Jinbo Eiichi, an old man who graduated from a third-rate university and has temperament but not temperament, good looks but not appearance, and a figure but not figure?

Hanyu Hideki could not help but wonder if Jinbo Eiichi would be used as a backup dog?

After all, during this period, neon women's degree of "death" in terms of women's rights was even worse than that of the "little princesses" in later generations in China.

To call it "love capitalism" openly, you need to have three wallet boyfriends such as "the man who pays the bills, the man who gives gifts, and the man who runs errands", and the "natural man" you want to marry in the end.

Sure enough, when Jinboying mentioned marriage, there was a problem in his words.

"I told her about getting married. She told me to focus on my career and not to be anxious now. She also needs to communicate with her family about me. After all, their family is also a prominent family in Iwate Prefecture."

When Hanyu Hideki heard this, he secretly curled his lips in disdain.

Career is the most important thing, you can't be anxious, and you need to communicate with your family. These reasons are really complete and very "persuasive".

No matter how it sounds, it sounds like he is fooling the spare tire.

After all, normally, these are just words of a scumbag fooling his wings.

People who really want to get married would never say this.

So just hearing these few words, Hanyu Hideki felt that he smelled a similar scent.

Hideki Hanyu tried to ask, "What do you usually do with Ms. Sato?"

"He said she likes food and shopping, so when we were dating, we would eat and go shopping together. I would often accompany her to visit the boss's shop."

"My shop?" Hanyu Hideki pretended to be confused.

But in his heart, he has concluded that Jinbo Eiichi has definitely met a high-ranking green tea. He probably doesn't even know it, but he has been regarded as the "paying man" of one of the three wallets.

Jinbo Eiichi explained, "They are the brands under Aiyi International. She likes Givenchy's Heart-Free series of perfumes the most."

"It turns out that those brands are not cheap." Hanyu Hideki said deliberately.

Who would have thought that Jinboying patted his chest and said grandly, "It doesn't matter, as long as she likes it, a little money is nothing."

"hehe--"

Hideki Hanyu smiled back.

He finally saw it, and the god Baoying in front of him was licking the dog one by one.

As the saying goes, respect other people's choices. In emotional matters, you agree with me.

As long as it doesn't affect his investment, Hideki Hanyu doesn't bother to meddle in the other party's business.

And in Hanyu Hideki's view, the fastest way for a man to grow in his relationship is to get hurt hard.

If Jinbo Eiichi can use this to grow, losing some money can be considered a good thing.

"Boss, are you coming to me this time just to care about my relationship status? Is there anything you need me to do?"

Jinbo Eiichi didn't think as much as Hanyu Hideki, so he asked about the business first.

He asked Hanyu Hideki directly what he wanted him to do.

He did not ask whether Hanyu Hideki wanted to know about the current investment situation.

Because of Hideki Hanyu's capital investment, someone would basically report to Hideki Hanyu every two days. Hideki Hanyu had as much information as he did.

"I want to use part of the funds. How much money can you prepare for me?" Hanyu Hideki directly explained the purpose of his visit without being verbose.

Jinboying asked, "When does the boss want it?"

"The sooner the better, I may go to America recently, and I want to invest in Nasdaq," said Hideki Hanyu.

"Most of the boss's funds are currently invested in the foreign exchange market and the stock market. If he is in a hurry to use money, he will only be able to recover at most US$500 million in a short time."

Hideki Hanyu hurriedly said, "It doesn't have to be so much, $100 million is enough."

Just kidding, the stock he wanted to build a position in when he went to New York this time was called Microsoft, with a circulating market value of just over one billion.

If you really spend 500 million US dollars, it is not building a position.

Although Microsoft's stock price has been soaring since last year, it seems a little late to build a position at this time.

However, Hideki Hanyu knew that it would not be long before Microsoft would split its shares for the first time in history. For the next period of time, at least until 1990, Microsoft's stock would remain generally low and sideways.

So he planned to enter the market before the first stock split, and then continue to slowly add positions.

Because he knew very well that it would be too late to wait until the late 1980s, when Microsoft showed its dominance.

And if you invest too much money at once, it will also attract unnecessary attention.

The most important thing is that he knows that after the first stock split, Gates will begin to sell his stocks one after another. Of course, Hanyu Hideki also wants to take the opportunity to eat some.

Neon's stock market is very profitable, but he already has enough funds in it. Taking advantage of the Japanese yen's general trend of attacking, of course he has to follow suit and make some investments.

In fact, this year in addition to Microsoft, another well-known company in America will also conduct its first stock split.

That is the famous apple.

It's just that compared to Microsoft's future takeoff, Apple's stock price has plunged several times.

Apple's stock price is still quite high now, and it will wait until it reaches the long-term lows in the 1990s.

In this time and space, Gang Leader Qiao was forced to take away Pixar Animation Studio in advance. If he wants to return to Apple, he will probably need his help.

Jinbo Eiichi was obviously relieved after hearing that Hanyu Hideki only needed 100 million US dollars.

"For $100 million, I could have it ready in a week."

After all, the use of many funds has been planned. If a large amount of money is suddenly transferred, it will inevitably disrupt their plans.

But if it's only 100 million US dollars, it would be much easier to handle.

Next, Hanyu Hideki chatted with Jinbo Eiichi and Honda Takeshi for a while.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he was ready to invite everyone to have dinner together.

But at this time, someone suddenly came to remind Jinbao Eiichi.

"Jinbo-san, Ms. Sato is here to see you upstairs!"

When Jinboying heard this, he looked at Hanyu Hideki with some embarrassment.

After all, the boss just said he wanted to treat him, so he turned around and went to accompany his girlfriend. This is obviously not a choice with high emotional intelligence.

"It doesn't matter. Jimbo-san can bring Miss Sato with him. I happen to want to get to know her too."

Hideki Hanyu made the invitation.

Although he said he knew someone, what he wanted in his heart was to know someone.

He really wanted to see what the high-level green tea in Neon during this period looked like.
