Chapter 28: Gangsters are already a sunset industry
"I'm really sorry for causing trouble to you, Miss Guan." Karitani Inuko smiled sweetly and bowed to apologize, and thanked Guan Deqing in a gentle voice, "Thanks to your protection, Inuko is very grateful. If you have the opportunity to go to Japan, please
Let me be the host and express my gratitude."
"That's not necessary." Guan Deqing politely refused, "If you need anything, just call me. I'll be right next door."
Seeing Guan Deqing walk out of the room, Karitani Inuko's smile faded and he sighed softly.
Kuuki Hideaki succeeded in getting rid of Oshima Kosuke, but King Xiang would turn his fire on her.
Not only did this bring her to the attention of the police, but it also exposed her connection to Hideaki Kuki.
Karitani Inuko weighed the gains and losses and found it difficult to calculate clearly.
If Kosuke Oshima and Kooukai really get those unique products and dump a large number of low-priced unique products, then the balance of power of the entire Japanese gang will be broken.
It's hard to say whether the Xiangrakukai will survive, let alone retain its own power. I'm afraid there will be a bloody storm.
His father's hard work was ruined, which Inuko Karitani couldn't bear.
She tiptoed to the door, put her ear against the door and listened quietly to the movement in the corridor for a while. After making sure that no one was at the door, she quickly walked to the balcony of the room.
Opening the balcony window, Karitani Inuko looked up at the night sky.
Under the light pollution of the city, apart from the moon, there is only the dark night.
Karitani Inuko closed her eyes, crossed the fingers of her hands and placed them on her chest, silently making a wish.
A breeze blew by, and the curtains fluttered in her face.
Karitani Inuko opened her eyes, turned around suddenly, and saw a man wearing a suit and holding a black cane in one hand standing beside her bed.
"Good evening, Miss Inuko."
Karitani Inuko subconsciously took a step back in shock and asked tentatively: "Are you Mr. Zhao?"
"It's me, I'm disturbing you." The other party showed a gentle smile, "I'm sorry, I seem to have scared you, but because we made an appointment before and I didn't want to be exposed in front of the police, I had to use this method.
Way to meet Miss Inuko."
The other party showed a polite attitude, coupled with his handsome appearance. If this uninvited guest hadn't suddenly barged in, Karitani Inuko would have had a good impression of him.
Karitani Inuko bowed slightly and said, "I'm sorry. I didn't expect you to come so quickly."
"Time waits for us." Qin Yi sighed, "Miss Quanzi, I can wait slowly, but I can't wait for the Xiangraku Meeting."
Karitani Inuko frowned slightly, "Why did Mr. Zhao say that?"
"Miss Quanzi, the Xiangle Club is about to be in disaster." Qin Yi sighed heavily.
"Mr. Zhao." Karitani Inuko was a little displeased, "I thought you came here to discuss business with me, why are you so alarmist as soon as we meet?"
"I'm not being alarmist." Qin Yi looked at the other party seriously, "My advice is hard on the ears. If Miss Quanzi doesn't want to listen and thinks I'm talking nonsense, then there's no need for us to cooperate, so I'll leave."
After saying that, Qin Yi walked away. Watching him walk towards the balcony gracefully, Karitani bit his lips and thought for a moment.
"Mr. Zhao, please wait a moment." Kariya Quanzi called out to Qin Yi.
Qin Yi paused, but did not look back or speak.
"Mr. Zhao thinks that I am going to be in trouble. I want to ask you for advice. Is there any basis for this? I can't just say it without any basis." When he said he was asking for advice, Karitani Inuko's tone was not polite at all.
Qin Yi smiled slightly and turned around.
"From the perspective of the general environment, Japan's economy has plummeted since 1990. The stock market collapsed and the property market fell. The general environment has affected all aspects of life." Qin Yi looked at Karitani Inuko and seemed to want to refute, and said directly, "Do you think
When the economy is poor, gangs will be more active and help you expand?"
Karitani Inuko nodded.
"You are wrong. The people have become poor and there is no money to be squeezed. No matter how active your gang is, where can you get money from?" Qin Yi asked with a sneer, "Is it from the high-ranking officials and chaebols? You don't have the guts either.
Bar."
Karitani Inuko frowned.
"Everyone is short of money, so why should we let you eat meat? The leeks are not even enough for the plutocrats to cut, so how can we let you get involved?" Qin Yi continued to ask, "Since 1992, the Violent Group Countermeasures Law has been promulgated, and Japanese gangs have
It must be a hard time."
Karitani Inuko's expression changed. Although gangsters are legal in Japan, the Japanese government has gradually reduced the living space of gangsters and introduced a series of laws.
"Law on the Punishment of Organized Crime", "Law on Interception of Communications During Criminal Investigation", "Law on Prevention of Diversion of Proceeds of Crime", "Law on Preventing Misconduct by Members of Violent Gangs" (referred to as "Law on Countermeasures against Violent Gangs"),
Act on the Regulation of Groups Carrying Out Indiscriminate Mass Killings" (referred to as the "Group Regulation Act").
After a series of incidents like this, the Japanese gangsters felt very uncomfortable.
"Let me ask you another question." Qin Yi looked at Karitani Inuko expressionlessly, "What is the birth rate in Japan this year? Have you paid attention to it?"
Karitani Inuko was stunned, "What does this have to do with the birth rate?"
"Stupid!" Qin Yi scolded, "Don't gangsters even have this kind of vision and structure? You rely on the general environment to survive, but you don't care about changes in the environment."
"The birth rate in Japan has been declining year after year, and it is expected to be even lower in the future. With a low birth rate, there will be less fresh blood in society and fewer people will join gangs."
"Think about it in ten or twenty years, there won't even be many young people left, and all you gangs will have is a bunch of old men killing people on the streets and collecting protection money?"
"The gangsters are already a sunset industry." Qin Yi's words were inspiring. "The general environment is eliminating you. Not only the Xiangrakukai, the Xiangohkai, and the Yamada Group will be the same in the future. All that is waiting for you is to slowly age and die.
Eventually it completely disappeared and became history.”
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This is impossible!" Kariya Inuko retorted with rapid breathing, her face turned red, "The gang will exist as long as there are people, and we will not die."
"Miss Quanzi, there is no point in deceiving yourself." Qin Yi smiled lightly, "Everything I said is well-founded. If you don't believe me, you can do a social survey yourself after returning to Japan and ask some experts to write a report and make predictions. Then you will know.
Am I being alarmist?"
Karitani Gouzi frowned slightly, and when he saw Qin Yi's words, he couldn't help but feel worried.
However, these worries are still far away. After Qin Yi talked about long-term worries, he immediately started talking about near-term worries.
"Leave aside the general environment in Japan, let's take this time as an example." Qin Yi asked again, "You all want to get the low-priced goods from the Asian Ice Queen. As far as I know, the original price of the goods was as high as 20
Five hundred million dollars.”
"What is the concept of 2.5 billion US dollars? I think Ms. Inuko knows better than me."
"Even if that batch of goods is willing to be sold at a low price, even if it is discounted in half, it will cost more than 1.2 billion U.S. dollars." Qin Yi smiled scornfully, "I would like to ask Miss Quanzi, can your Xiangle Club come up with 1.2 billion U.S. dollars?
"
"Even if you have such a large amount of money, how are you going to pay the bills? Aren't you afraid that the funds will be frozen directly by the authorities during the flow of funds?"
Karitani Inuko frowned, "We have our own methods."
"Then do you have money?" Qin Yibi asked, "You have a safe method, do you have money? Can you get so much money at once?"
Karitani Inuko couldn't answer this question. Although she was the president's daughter, she didn't know much about the financial situation of the gang.
"It's useless even if you have money." Qin Yi sighed, "You have been targeted by the police. The Hong Kong Island police are looking for these goods everywhere. Naturally they will not let it go if they are robbed. What will happen if they offend the Hong Kong Island police?
I don’t need to give you examples.”
"Not only the Hong Kong Island police, but also Interpol has cooperated with the Japanese police. All over East Asia, this batch of goods will be targeted. You can't control it."
Karitani Inuko was upset when Qin Yi said, "Then what is Mr. Zhao's advice?"
"Miss Quanzi's undecided decision is just because the benefits of this batch of goods are too great, and she is unwilling to give them up. She is also worried that other gangs will get the first step, which will be detrimental to Xiang Le, right?" Qin Yi asked with a smile.
Karitani Inuko nodded.
"In fact, the traditional industry of gangsters has been declining. There is no way to make money in this red ocean." Qin Yi snapped his fingers, "If you want to make money, you must find another way and be good at developing new blue ocean markets."
Karitani Inuzi suddenly sat upright, and respectfully got down from his seat to salute Qin Yi, "Please teach me, Mr. Zhao."
"There is no need to give such a big gift. I am not here to give you a lesson, but to seek cooperation." Qin Yi casually sat down on the bed and changed into a relaxed posture.
"The gang's businesses are cumbersome and dirty, and they don't make much money. You should develop some new businesses."
Karitani Inuko asked curiously, "For example?"
"For example, doing private equity." Qin Yi snapped his fingers and showed a kind smile, "Are you interested in doing finance with me?"
