The rebirth of the Hong Kong Island chaebol, starting with a short-selling Eagle Sauce

Mitsui Financial News, General Secretary's Office.

Masuda Takashi was trimming his nails and asked the director:

"How did Akimoto Yasushi reply to us?"

"He acted very angry. Branch president, did we go a little too far?"

"Excessive? We operate the TV station for profit.

Because of your mistakes last year, the group lost at least billions of yen, and we will definitely earn back double this year. "

Masuda Takashi did not expect that the cooperation he ignored would have such great commercial value. By the time he discovered it, it was already a little too late.

The station director looked confused: "Branch president, what if Akimoto Yasushi switches to cooperate with other TV stations?"

"Are you stupid? The earth will stop turning without Yasushi Akimoto. You all know the model. He can do the AKB draft, but I can't do the ARB draft?"

Faced with the president's scolding, the director was speechless. He did not dare to disobey his boss, but it was still very difficult to imitate akb.

He was promoted to the position by Masuda Takashi, and he has a clear understanding of his abilities.

It might not be possible without Yasushi Akimoto.

"Okay, let's push them further. As a TV station, we need to be tougher."

While they were talking, the station director's assistant rushed into the office rashly:

"President, Director, something bad has happened. The newspapers outside are now reporting that our negotiations with Bailong Firm have broken down and the two parties do not intend to continue to cooperate."

"Hmph, this must be Yasushi Akimoto who is causing trouble. Do you really think that the pressure of public opinion will make us compromise?"

Masuda Takashi has not yet realized the importance of the problem and feels that things are still under his control.

But the assistant added shamelessly:

"President, you'd better take a look at the stock price of TV Tokyo first."

"The stock price? It's rising again..."

As a financial news agency, his secretary would send a summary of the latest stock price developments to his desk every hour.

Looking at the stock price in the previous hour on TV Tokyo, his face turned cold.

Because the stock price has been rising well in the past, it has fallen by 9 points today!

You must know that Sakurajima's stock market has been in a bull market for a long time. It fell 9 points and it has already made the headlines of financial news.

This is data from an hour ago!

The assistant analyzed and said:

"Because of the popularity of the show, many akb fans bought our stocks in large sums. After they heard the news, they were very disappointed with our station and began to sell their stocks.

Seeing the stock price plummeting, investors believed the rumors and started selling stocks one after another! "

Masuda Takashi finally stopped barking, thought for a while and told the director:

"Go to a press conference immediately and tell the media that our cooperation with Bailong Agency has not broken down, and the second season's draft will go ahead beyond normal.

As for Yasushi Akimoto, you have to appease him first and make two preparations at the same time. Even if the negotiations really break down, there must be an 'original' program on top. "

"Okay, I'm going to prepare for the press conference."

Masuda Takashi couldn't sit still when it came to his vital interests.

He felt that Bailong Office was very ignorant for actually going against a behemoth like the Mitsui Consortium, and he must give them some trouble.

He turned on the TV and planned to watch TV Tokyo's press conference.

What caught the station director off guard was that the media at the scene did not ask him about his cooperation with Bailong Firm.

Instead, he asked about some baseless things.

"Director, there is a rumor that your TV station forced female subordinates to entertain Mitsui executives. Is this true?"

"It is said that your right-hand man, young Miss Tianzi, rose to power through hidden rules. Is this true or false?"

"Your Taiwan has always been short of funds. Some internal employees said privately that it was because you were keen on stock trading and misappropriated public funds to do so..."

These are all their internal matters, how do the media know about them.

The rhetoric that he had prepared suddenly became useless.

The station manager, who was in a panic, ended the public relations meeting like a farce under the intense pursuit of the media.

The live broadcast stopped abruptly and lost the signal.

Also feeling panicked was Masuda Takashi who was sitting in the office.

Most of these rumors are related to him, including the matter of embezzling public funds to speculate in stocks, which he also instructed the station director to do.

The first thing he thought of was to give up his car to save his handsome man!

It's not that he doesn't miss his old friendship and sacrifices his subordinates in order to protect himself.

He did this to preserve the reputation of the entire Mitsui Consortium.

If he is revealed to be the mastermind behind the incident, it will undoubtedly be the biggest scandal in Sakura Island in recent years.

Thinking of this, he immediately calmed down. He carefully recalled the context of the whole incident, and vaguely pointed the finger at Bailong Office.

It is estimated that these uninvited reporters were also brought in by them.

The general media would not dare to get involved in this matter.

At this time, the phone on his desk rang.

"President, what should we do now? These things have been exposed."

You can feel how helpless the station director is through the microphone.

Masuda Takashi secretly scolded the loser. If the other party hadn't always been obedient, such a mediocre person wouldn't have been able to take over.

But he still comforted in a soft voice:

"It's okay, it's just a minor situation. They have no evidence at all. Even if there is evidence, so what. I can help you find the best lawyer. For commercial crimes, you will only be jailed for ten years at most..."

Director Ben's slightly calm heart jumped into his throat again. This guy wanted him to take down all the charges!

He couldn't even listen to what Masuda Takashi said next.

He didn't expect that he would end up like this because he was so loyal and had been doing the dirty work for Masuda Takashi.

He knew very well what ten years in prison meant. Even if he survived until he was released from prison, things would change. What would Takashi Masuda use as a guarantee?

But he was smart enough not to attack Masuda Takashi at this time. He knew how ruthless the people in the consortium were, as long as he showed a little resistance.

It is estimated that the news that he committed suicide out of fear of crime will appear on the headlines the next day.

"Okay, President, I know what to do, and please help me take care of my family."

"Don't worry, I won't treat you badly. I will take care of them as my wife and children."

After hanging up the phone, the station manager regained his composure.

Perhaps because he knew the worst outcome, he was not so afraid.

After a fierce struggle, he finally raised the phone and dialed Qiu Yuanyasu's number.

"Director, what's the matter with you? Those rumors really have nothing to do with me." Qiu Yuanyasu did not know these secret things, but he knew that this matter must be related to the Black Dragon Society.

The grievances and innocence felt at this time were all feigned.

"Akimoto-kun, you are the only one who can save me now."
