Chapter 222, Shackles and Means (4/5 ask for a monthly pass)
"Let the University of Tokyo expel him? Ground his daughter and swell his face?" Tokuno Suga asked in shock.
Hirano Takao frowned.
The person who made the report said: "Yes! He also specifically mentioned the name of the game. The purpose of humiliating Tao Dalang was actually for the wealth of the Ueda family, and he had the intention of becoming his son-in-law and adopted son!"
"This time it is Ueda Masahiro's victory..." Suga Tokuo actually felt a little happy, and then he said worriedly to Hirano Takao, "But Mr. Chairman, didn't you say that the next step is just acting? Tao Dalang continued to challenge Ueda.
Don't you come to the stage so that Sumitomo can be more sure of his position? And Ueda-kun can only continue to teach him a lesson, but act helpless? Ueda-kun's approach is a bit beyond the agreement at the time. He really still wants to make peace with him.
Will the Mori family unite together?"
Hirano Takao nodded and said to the person reporting: "All the details are indeed like this, right?"
"Yes! No exaggeration, no omission!"
"Thanks for your hard work."
Hirano Takao nodded, and the person who reported the report left.
Just as Tokuo Suga was about to say something, Takao Hirano raised his hand: "Tokuo, go to the Mori Group and communicate the board of directors' suggestions with Chairman Mori to see how he reacts to his opinions."
Suga Tokuo, who was hesitant to speak, could only suppress his doubts and stood up, bowed and said: "Yes!"
The President's order can only be carried out immediately.
He knew there might be a hidden secret here, but at the moment... he didn't seem worthy of knowing.
As Tokuo Suga walked, he made up his mind to observe more information from Taiyoshiro Mori's reaction!
After Tokuo Suga left the office, Takao Hirano sat quietly. He closed his eyes and thought over and over about the entire process he had just reported.
Tao Dalang came to challenge again, but this time he didn't even get in, so he let the people sent over see the whole process.
In this way, the reporters who have been arranged there will no longer need to be used.
However, they are not allowed to enter the house. Is this done deliberately to show to interested people, or is Masahiro Ueda really willing to resist this request from the Iwasaki family?
If he still chooses to marry the Mori family, is the Mori family brewing a plan to be controlled by Mitsubishi?
Takao Hirano feels that he is now in a dilemma.
It's normal for Ueda Masahiro not to trust Kinoshita Hidefaze and Tao Dalang who are not very familiar with him. But if he completes this matter, doesn't it also fulfill his promise to the Iwasaki family? This should always be what Ueda Masahiro hopes for, right?
Then why do you do so extremely, and even protest to the University of Tokyo to expel Tao Dalang?
Thinking about what he said to Mori Yasukichiro in front of him before, it doesn't matter even if Morijiro is better, Hirano Takao's frown deepened.
Knowing that Mitsubishi can control the Mori Group with only a similar amount of shares, and the situation created now has put the Mori family into a passive situation, he is not worried that Mitsubishi will also be able to control the Ueda family's future by controlling the Mori Group in the future.
?
Mr. Iwasaki made it very clear that when Masahiro Ueda chose the Mori family, he did not want to let the children of the Iwasaki family enter the Ueda family so that he could control the Ueda family in the future.
The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, so he could only call the head of the Iwasaki family.
"Iwasaki-sama..." Hirano Takao truthfully told what had just happened in front of Ueda's house, and then asked, "Ueda Masayu did this because he probably had some secret plan with the Mori family. Didn't Mori Taiyoshiro go there that night?
I went to Ueda’s house, did you stay there for a long time?”
"... Masahiro Ueda, did you really say, 'You don't know anything, so you say such things without shame, destroying everything I have managed for so many years?'" What the head of the Iwasaki family focused on was this, "What about the tone?"
?”
Hirano Takao was a little confused. How could he say this? He was the current chairman of the Mitsubishi Foundation, but he couldn't hide behind the wall in person to listen.
"...very angry." Takao Hirano could only say, "I acted very angry the whole time, but also very indifferent."
"Is that so..." The head of the Iwasaki family paused, "Has the decision of the board of directors been conveyed to Mori Taiyoshiro?"
"We have arranged for Tokuo Suga to come over for discussion."
"Okay, let's see his reaction!" the head of the Iwasaki family finished, and then said, "Let's meet with Kitagawa Atsushi and ask him why the two parties did not exchange opinions with Mitsubishi headquarters first on the exchange of investment and shareholdings. In addition,
Try to ask in a clever way what they mean by letting Tao Dalang hang that 'Ueda Taro'. After the communication, find a way to secretly meet Kinoshita Hidefeng. If you think it is necessary, I can be there!"
Hirano Takao's heart trembled: "I know!"
It is related to Mitsubishi's years of planning, to the private reform of the entire National Railways, and to...whether his son Takao Hirano can enter the cabinet.
Hirano Takao put down the phone, closed his eyes and tried his best to sort through the information.
In any case, it would be best for Mr. Iwasaki not to show up.
If the problem requires him to solve it himself, how can Takao Hirano's abilities be reflected?
Can he continue to serve as the next president?
So...it also depends on your own position!
…
Tokuo Suga sat on the sofa in Taiyoshiro Mori's office, watching his reaction quietly.
Taiyoshiro Mori and his two sons were there.
Minoru Mori and Akira Mori both had ugly expressions on their faces, and they also looked at Suga Tokuno quietly.
The money that Mitsubishi invested in Mogami Mirai was pledged by part of the Mori Group shares that Mitsubishi already held, and the Mori family took it out?
Two questions.
First, the equity mentioned by Mitsubishi is not worth 5 billion yen. Although the Mori Group is not listed, but only 2.5% of the shares, you want to mortgage 5 billion yen from the Mori family? Moreover, where is the dignified Mitsubishi Foundation?
Can't come up with 5 billion yen?
Second, if the Mori family accepts this suggestion, it means that the Mori family intends to buy back some of the shares held by Mitsubishi and weaken Mitsubishi's influence in the Mori Group.
Seeing that Taiyoshiro Mori remained silent, Tokuo Suga said quietly: "Now that the real estate industry is improving, we always recommend that in order to allow Mori Group to have more funds to expand the scale of development, it should be listed as soon as possible. We are doing the preparation work.
The side committee will give full support to do a good job. Chairman Mori, if the Roppongi Hills plan is to proceed smoothly, the side committee also needs to solve the problem of Akasaka PRESS
CENTER’s position. Chairman Mori, Roppongi Hills’ plan is also related to the future of Mori Group, so you need to consider it carefully.”
Neither the content nor the tone of what he said was very polite.
It can be said that the edge has been revealed.
Taiyoshiro Mori finally spoke: "The Roppongi Hills project was originally planned to coordinate with Mitsubishi's layout in the national railway reform. At that time, wasn't it said that the position issue of Akasaka PRESS CENTER had been resolved?"
The Akasaka PRESS CENTER they were talking about is located next to Aoyama Park next to Roppongi Hills. It is called the media center, but it is actually a base for the US military in the bustling city center of Tokyo. Senior US military officials stationed in Neon often go through
From the bases scattered around Tokyo, take a helicopter directly through the city and land there.
Roppongi Hills was going to build a new skyscraper, so the project had to be approved by the Japanese military stationed in Neon.
It is precisely for this reason that the Mori Group has accepted more investment from Mitsubishi, leading to the current situation.
As expected, Tokuo Suga laughed: "Chairman Mori, of course the position issue has been resolved in principle. But Mitsubishi spent so much money because it wanted Roppongi Hills to be really built. Only in this way would it be beneficial to Mitsubishi."
The layout in the national railway reform is effective. Because you let Sun Tzu spread the secret plan without authorization, which in turn affected the reputation of the Mori Group. Except for Mitsubishi
Banks, I heard that other banks are also worried that projects will be stranded and have raised concerns about loan repayment capabilities. Under this situation, although some reputation has been restored through the trust charity fund, the most fundamental way is for Roppongi Hills to have
Substantial progress. Whether it is a definite start-up permit or good news about listing, it is the way to completely solve the current situation."
Mori Taiyoshiro looked at him quietly.
Using 2% of the shares, let the Mori family spend 5 billion yen to promote the listing of the Mori Group. As a securities underwriter, how many new shares will the Mitsubishi Foundation subscribe for?
I am afraid that the day of listing will be the moment when the Mitsubishi Foundation takes complete control of the Mori Group's board of directors.
At that time, the future strategies of the Mori Group will be formulated by the Mitsubishi Consortium. The Mori family can only sit back and watch their endless investment and financing methods. Their shares are gradually diluted, and their personnel gradually withdraw from the management. They can only place their hopes.
The vassal families who receive some dividends from the group's profits have completely served the core families of the Mitsubishi Group.
But at present, if this proposal is rejected, the implication is that the position of the US Army in Neon will change and the project will not be able to advance.
Sen Group has spent a lot of effort to win this golden treasure land in a prime location. The success of this project has largely determined the future of Sen Group.
The purpose of increasing the voice of the Mitsubishi Foundation in the Mori Group is to cooperate with their layout in the private reform of national railways. In exchange, in addition to obtaining a certain share in the private railway companies controlled by the Mitsubishi Foundation in the future, the other is that they
It is necessary to resolve the issue of the position of the US troops stationed in Neon.
Now, they actually make the obligations that should be fulfilled a condition. Is this what Mitsubishi did after the deal was done?
Taiyoshiro Mori said solemnly: "The Mori Group has just invested 3 billion yen in the trust charity fund. The financial situation should be very clear to President Suga and Hirano."
"So, going public can solve this problem." Suga Tokuno pressed forward, "If there is a real decision to go public, and the board of directors agrees, Mori Group can use part of its shares to pledge another 10 billion yen. We are all very optimistic about Mori.
The future of the group!”
"So, how many shares can be used to pledge 10 billion yen?"
"It's just 6.67%."
Taiyoshiro Mori looked at him and asked slowly: "2% of the shares were pledged to the Mori Group, hoping to get 5 billion yen; the Mori Group used 6.67% of the shares, but could only pledge 10 billion yen. There is a big gap between them.
.”
Suga Tokuo replied calmly: "After all, no one knows what will happen in the future. While 6.67% pledges 10 billion yen, Mitsubishi will also need to spend a lot of money to effectively solve the problem of Akasaka PRESS CENTER, right?"
Taiyoshiro Mori pondered for a long time before saying: "I understand. Commissioner Suga, I need to think carefully about such an important issue."
"Of course." Suga Tokuo stood up and bowed, "But it can't be too long. The next hearing on the national railway private reform that Prime Minister Nei will come to has been set on July 7.
March 28th. This should be the first important thing after the Prime Minister takes over. Before that, Mitsubishi needs to have a concrete plan to submit to the ministers."
Mori Taiyoshiro and his son stood up together and bowed: "Yes."
Suga Tokuo took a deep look at the three people who raised their heads, and then said: "Goodbye."
Looking at his back as he left casually, the three people in the office all looked at him with love and hate in their eyes.
Chapter completed!
