Chapter 35 The financial omen finally arrived

December 25, 1990.

Tokyo Industrial Bank Head Office Building, 32nd Floor, Executive Office (3), Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo.

Owada Kenji looked at the thick stack of personnel transfer reports on the table and couldn't laugh or cry.

Standing respectfully aside is Mieko Sakai, who was recently transferred to his staff. The most famous socialite of the head office left the public relations department a few days ago and was promoted from the head of the public relations department to the deputy director of the human resources department of the head office.

The deputy director is one of the high-level positions in the head office. They are usually reserve candidates for ministers of a certain department. Young people have a good chance of being promoted to the position of director of a certain department of the head office. Older people can at least become deputy directors of a certain department of the head office.

Positions are the highest level of power.

Once promoted to a minister, if there is still room for promotion, he will be transferred to the region to be a branch leader or sub-branch president. As long as the performance meets the standards and you have grassroots work experience, you will have the opportunity to join the board of directors and become an executive director when you return to the head office in the future!

Many head office employees have been stuck at the investigator level all their lives. They are promoted from department heads to section chiefs. If they have no connections, they can only be transferred to investigators. And investigators are exactly the dividing line. If they do well, they may be appreciated by some big bosses.

, most of them will offend the leaders of many lower-level branches and sub-branches because of this job. These leaders are often the younger brothers of a big boss on the board of directors of the head office. Offending them is equivalent to blocking their own promotion path.

Several investigators who had offended Kitahara Sosuke when they came to the Osaka branch were now sent to the branch in the Kato area as junior leaders, with no hope of ever returning to Tokyo.

Mieko Sakai was able to directly skip the investigator level and become the deputy director of the human resources department. On the surface, it was naturally because of the intervention of Owada, the executive in charge of human resources. But in fact, well-informed employees at the head office knew that the men behind her were the three giants of the head office.

One of Gennei Qian's specialties.

No one dares to offend her at the head office.

At first, when he received the transfer, Owada Kenji thought it was the intention of Gennai's chief executive. He was the successor promoted by Gennai Ken. The latter was getting older. This time the president's election was his last chance. If he succeeded, then Gennai Ken

You can still hold on for three to five years. If you fail, you will have to retire.

If he retreats, Owada Kenji will have a chance to come forward.

Therefore, Owada Kenji also had a small calculation in mind, flattering Gennai Ken while thinking about his chances of being promoted to president. This sudden transfer was more like Gennai Ken's warning to himself.

He wants to put people here?

After being worried like this for a long time, it wasn't until Mieko Sakai gave an explicit hint that Owada Kenji realized that this beautiful, smart, and successful woman in the workplace was actually Kitahara Sosuke's!

She seems to be following Gennai Ken, but in fact she is working for Kitahara Sosuke!

Kitahara Sosuke asked Sakai Mieko to tell this secret, which was a show of goodwill to Owada Kenji.

At the same time, she also expressed her meaning through Mieko Sakai's mouth.

He is not optimistic about Gennai Ken's candidacy. Kitahara Sosuke is betting on the re-election of President Takashi Shirakawa!

Then, Commissioner Gennai Ken will have to retire sadly, and the leaderless progressive faction will always need a new leader.

Just like the crumbling Kaisha faction, the only person who can take up the leading position after Hiraiwa Keiichi is Nobu Takeshita, who is currently transferred to the Nagoya branch.

His position in the progressive faction, Kenji Owada, is equivalent to that of Nobu Takeshita in the Kaisha faction!

After careful consideration, he decisively accepted the olive branch offered by Kitahara Sosuke, and then expressed his sincerity.

It’s just that this guy is too messy!

Nearly a quarter of the branch’s management was exiled at every turn!

At the Chuo District branch, he killed a third of the staff with a wave of his hand. Now he does the same thing at the Kyoto branch. How arrogant!

Kitahara Sosuke didn't give a reason, he just made a request, saying it was a request, but Owada Kenji knew that he was asking for something in return.

"Didn't President Kitahara say anything else?" He rubbed his forehead. He wanted to approve the personnel transfer of nearly a hundred people in a large branch. This was a big responsibility. As the executive in charge of personnel, he was naturally capable of shouldering it.

The approval of the board of directors is just a cosmetic project. Whoever is responsible makes the decision. This is an unspoken rule when it comes to personnel transfers.

But there must be various factions among these people, and many close associates of the board members. Kenji Owada investigated and found that there were people from the three major factions. This seemed to be an indiscriminate killing by Kitahara Sosuke, which made him even more confused.

What is this guy doing?

Mieko Sakai shook her head. She was only responsible for delivering messages and knew nothing else. She was in awe of Kitahara Sosuke more than anything else. Even if she knew something, she would not dare to tell Owada Kenji.

Owada Kenji had no choice but to approve the request, and then said that he would tell the president in person. Then he stood up and asked in a low voice: "That matter... will start at the end of the year. Is he really sure?

"

"Don't worry, Executive, President Kitahara said everything is under control, please don't worry." Mieko Sakai smiled sweetly.

"Then what if he doesn't want to quit?" Owada Kenji's eyes became fierce, "I don't have enough time. If he stays for one more year, I will waste one more year. At the Osaka branch, I have already wasted it.

Enough!"

"Then force him to retreat!" Sakai Mieko seemed to have anticipated his question, her eyes became fierce, and she made a beheading gesture.

...

Kyoto Prefecture, Tosan Kyoto Branch.

There were still hundreds of people attending the regular meeting yesterday morning, but today there were suddenly a quarter less people. The large conference room seemed much emptyer. The remaining people were also impressed by Kitahara Sosuke's courage, and none of them dared to speak.

He kept his word and was exiled when he was told, without any concern for anyone's feelings.

The Minister of Finance, who was still talking about opposition yesterday, packed up and left today.

Kitahara Sosuke felt that his personality was very suitable for managing logistics, so with a wave of his hand, he transferred him to a rural branch in Kyoto as the head of the logistics department. After a few years, he would be dispatched to a subordinate securities company as an executive to retire. All arrangements were made.

.

The content of today's meeting was very simple. After the routine report, Kitahara Sosuke looked at Kato Miko, who stood up and talked about the most important thing in today's meeting.

This is also the big news that came out this morning.

The Miyazawa cabinet was formally impeached by Congress, and the election of the new prime minister's cabinet is about to begin. The most powerful competitor is the rising leader of the new party, Hosokawa Morihiro.

Miyazawa Kiichi also decided to give his re-election speech.

While the two major factions were wrestling with each other, economic issues were also put on the table.

There are different opinions on whether to stick to tradition and support the real industry, or to reform and innovate to support new industries.

Just when the two couldn't argue, and each was exchanging insults on the campaign bus, new financial news broke out, shattering everyone's outlook.

A large number of bad debts occurred in the specialized housing finance company directly under the Ministry of Finance. On the same day, the largest second regional bank, the Hyogo Bank based in Kobe, suffered a major financial crisis!

Its bad debts have accumulated so much that it is on the verge of bankruptcy as it has no funds to sustain it!

This is the first bank to have a formal bankruptcy crisis, and it is also the first financial institution to be unable to solve the problem when it discovers it!

The Housing Finance Corporation, which is also on the verge of bankruptcy, is the biological son of the Ministry of Finance. If it has problems, it means that there is a problem with the Ministry of Finance!

An unprecedented financial omen has finally arrived.
