826 [Set fire to the body] under
As a strong man in Osaka, Ichiro Okamoto always wants to be a local emperor quietly.
He doesn't have much ambitions. Like many Osaka people, he lives a casual life and likes to enjoy it. In addition, he is self-aware and knows that even if he uses both hands and feet, he is not a match for the three major consortiums, so Ichiro Okamoto is very troubled now.
If you offend the three major consortiums and ignore their ban, then Okamoto Co., Ltd. will definitely be retaliated like a thunderbolt.
Okamoto guessed it right.
Within a week, various properties under his jurisdiction began to happen, the Danzifang was temporarily inspected, and many gambling machines were seized by the police.
His dance hall is constantly being reported to have illegal activities, and bars also have banned drugs for sale.
In short, Okamoto's companies are in chaos.
At the same time, major banks that were originally close to Okamoto Company suddenly changed their faces and asked Okamoto to repay the loan in advance.
This took Okamoto's life.
You should know that like many speculative merchants, Ichiro Okamoto always borrows bank money to make a fortune.
Loan from banks and invest in various industries, such as his best staple rooms, dance halls, karaoke and bars.
He borrowed a lot, and roughly calculated that it exceeded one billion US dollars. At this moment, the banks asked him to repay the loan at the same time, which was equivalent to directly shaking his throat.
Ichiro Okamoto had no choice but to keep calling the bank bosses and requesting a few more days of gratitude. He said that he would not owe the debts and refused to pay them back.
But those bank bosses were like turtles who were determined to eat the scales. Film and television paid more money faster than him, because everyone heard that the three major consortiums wanted to collectively sanction Okamoto.
Ichiro Okamoto was really forced to do so now.
Helplessly, he had to raise money everywhere and temporarily sell his cars, houses, and some collections of calligraphy and paintings, but these things are almost a drop in the bucket. After all, one billion US dollars is not a small amount.
At this moment, Okamoto regretted collecting Song Zhichao's Tokyo real estate worth 300 million US dollars. If those were cash, he could use them for emergency treatment.
Unfortunately, Okamoto and Song Zhichao signed a contract with each other for $3 billion a month, but the far water cannot save the near fire. They may die in less than a month without a burial place.
At this moment, in addition to bank accounts queuing, the Osaka government led by Natsume Taki also began to counterattack him.
As the mayor of Osaka City, Natsume Taikawa had been unhappy with Okamoto, the local emperor. Now it is rare that Okamoto is in trouble, so he won't beat the dog in the water yet.
Under the leadership of Mayor Natsume, the Osaka City Taxation Bureau, the Osaka City Police Department, the Osaka City Inspection Institute and other administrative departments began a crazy liquidation operation against Okamoto Co., Ltd.
In just three days, Ichiro Okamoto was found to have many illegal acts. With the defense of a barrister and a bail of up to hundreds of millions of dollars, Ichiro Okamoto temporarily walked out of the court safely.
At this time, half a month has passed.
Just as Ichiro Okamoto was busy seeking a lawyer to defend himself, many of his real estate industries were ordered to be auctioned by the government because of debts.
The industry, which was originally worth more than 4 billion yuan, was eventually sold by a mysterious capital for one billion yuan, and temporarily repayed Okamoto's debts owed to major banks.
So, when Ichiro Okamoto walked out of the court, his wealth, which was billions of dollars, had already shrunk by half.
Okamoto thought these were all sanctions and punishments from the three major consortiums, and that their assets were also taken away by the three major consortiums, especially the Mitsui Group. Who made him move the prince's property in Tokyo? This is clearly revenge.
But Okamoto took a deep breath and hadn't lost yet.
Yes, I also signed a contract with the hateful Chinese Song Zhichao. The deadline is ten days and one month. At that time, Song Zhichao will take out 3 billion to himself, which will make up for his losses.
Although three billion is one billion less than four billion, this is somewhat of a comfort.
...
Ten days later—
Ichiro Okamoto couldn't wait to ask his private lawyer to contact Song Zhichao and warned the other party that the one-month period had arrived and that according to the signed contract, you should pay the remaining amount.
After receiving the news, Song Zhichao replied to Ichiro Okamoto and made an appointment to meet at Okamoto's headquarters at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning.
Ichiro Okamoto didn't expect that Song Zhichao would choose his headquarters as the negotiation location, which was a bit surprised, but when he thought that this was his main battlefield and it was beneficial to him, he couldn't help but feel happy.
Early the next morning, Ichiro Okamoto made full preparations and arranged lawyers, witnesses, and even those damn bank bosses invited a few of them to come. Okamoto wanted to let these guys who were jealous of money see that they would immediately have 3 billion US dollars to make them see who was the grandson and who was the grandson.
At about nine o'clock, Song Zhichao and everyone arrived late.
In addition to the lawyer Bi Wenfeng and several Japanese lawyers who came with Song Zhichao, Okamoto Ichiro also saw his arch-rivaled enemy Mayor Taiqiu Natsume.
Okamoto felt very uncomfortable, thinking that this damn Natsume was watching the fun, or to be precise, he was watching his jokes.
But no matter what, it was brought by Song Zhichao and witnessed. No matter how unhappy Ichiro Okamoto felt, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he could not reveal it.
Although Ichiro Okamoto tried hard to look natural, everyone present knew how he was doing recently - he was simply a dog who fell into the water and a dog who was betrayed, and was completely different from the last time he signed a contract.
Ichiro Okamoto smiled and shook hands with Song Zhichao, Natsume and others, exchanged greetings, and then he couldn't wait to invite Song Zhichao to "fulfil the contract content" - he was anxious, and he was anxious to ask Song Zhichao to pay him 3 billion.
Faced with the invitation of Ichiro Okamoto, Song Zhichao walked side by side with him to the signing ceremony stage.
The last time was the first signing, and this time it was the completion of the contract agreement, which was much more important than that.
Very quickly, Okamoto signed his contract first, then looked at Song Zhichao with anticipation and hope, and waited for him to sign - he could collect the money after signing.
Mr. Okamoto, who suffered heavy losses this month, urgently needed such a large amount of money to recover the losses.
Song Zhichao picked up the pen and picked it up.
Ichiro Okamoto's heart was almost stopped beating.
He stared at Song Zhichao, watched Song Zhichao lift his pen and wrote the words—
victory!
It's about to win!
Ichiro Okamoto wanted to shout, howl, and carnival.
But--
"Sorry, I thought about it but still didn't sign it." Song Zhichao suddenly put down the half-signed contract, turned his head and said to Ichiro Okamoto with a smile.
Ichiro Okamoto: "..."
Chapter completed!
