February 5, 1991, Sakyo-ku, Kyoto, Japan, morning, sunny.
Tosan Kyoto Branch Building, large conference room.
Kitahara Sosuke in a straight suit stood in front of the whiteboard, holding a black marker in his hand and writing strings of Japanese characters on the whiteboard. The employees of the Kyoto branch below listened attentively, with eyes full of admiration and
trust.
Less than half a year after Kitahara Sosuke came to the Kyoto Branch, he first reorganized the workplace atmosphere that had been polluted by the former branch president and financing director, and then pulled the Kyoto Branch out of the quagmire. Then he used his strong strength to prove his support for the new three
feasibility of large industry.
At a time when all financial institutions in Kyoto are in danger, only the Kyoto branch that cooperates with the new tourism industry has opened up its business. As Nanzenji's passenger flow once again exceeded the record high, other cooperative temples and shrines also benefited from Kitahara.
Various innovative tourism activities have ushered in a wave of tourism boom. As a sponsor, the Kyoto Branch has successfully completed a thrilling transformation.
Transform the loan entities from clubs in the old three major industries into clubs in the new three major industries.
At this time, Kitahara Sosuke was impassioned and introduced the importance of the other two pillar industries - high technology and entertainment, as well as their future development possibilities to the staff below.
The entertainment industry is easy to understand. Film, television, animation, and games have always been long-lasting hot-selling products. However, film and television have always been monopolized by TV stations. Animation is half-dead. It only cheered up a little after several hot-selling movies from Studio Ghibli.
As for games, this industry is closely related to high technology. Currently, only Nintendo and the fledgling Sony have a slight say.
The market share is really pitifully small.
For bank employees who were accustomed to real estate during the bubble period, the appeal of this small-scale industry is indeed very low. It is difficult for them to break away from their inherent thinking and believe that this new industry has terrifying vitality and energy.
This is just like telling others in the future that mobile games will one day replace computer games. It sounds very magical and unbelievable. In that position, you would not dare to invest in mobile games easily.
The principle is the same, so Kitahara Sosuke, who dares to do this and achieves success, will have a devastating impact on these financial elites.
The financial elites working in Beiyuan Shenlang have long been impressed by his charm, and are willing to contribute to the rise of Beiyuan Shenlang and sacrifice everything.
Today, a similar atmosphere is brewing in Tosan Kyoto Branch. Although they don’t understand it yet, as long as Kitahara Sosuke says these two new industries can work, they believe they can definitely rise!
This is the personal charm of a successful leader that is hard to replace.
After explaining the follow-up plan, Kitahara Sosuke took a sip of barley tea and cast his gaze downwards. When he saw that they seemed to understand but were full of longing and confidence, he knew that his plan would be effective.
"Well, from now on, our branch will fully target these two emerging markets. I hope that the branch can work together with the nearby Beiyuan Shenlang to implement our new projects. I am sure that the future will be
High-tech industry!"
Kitahara Sosuke's loud voice resounded throughout the conference room,
"If you have any questions, you can raise them now and speak freely."
Hearing the word "speak freely", many old employees have a psychological shadow. People who were willing to speak freely before are now dead in the grave.
However, some people still raised their hands to speak and ask.
"President, I would like to ask, when will the Kitahara Club, which has withdrawn from the Kyoto market, come back? In fact, in recent business activities, those customers have asked about related matters many times. They think that if the Kitahara Club completely gives up
Kyoto market, then there is no need for them to consume in these two industries."
The person who asked the question was a young employee who had just joined the company. He asked many people's opinions.
Kithara Sosuke smiled calmly: "Don't worry, we won't wait too long. The Kyoto market share is so large, we will not give up easily. We are withdrawing now because we have too many enemies and they are too entangled. They would rather burn money to stop us."
We are doing business, and there is no need for us to fight a war of attrition with such a mad dog."
Hearing him describe the Qianye family as mad dogs, everyone smiled knowingly and said nothing more.
For many of these financial elites who have climbed up from the bottom, big families like the Chino family are evil dragons that need to be killed in their eyes.
They want to become dragon slayers, but in a classical city like Kyoto, the people who control power and wealth are those deep-rooted big families. It is difficult to even get close to them, let alone overthrow them.
Becoming a dragon slayer is always just a dream.
And now, the dream may come true.
With Kitahara Sosuke's commitment, they felt more at ease and had the confidence to talk to customers.
After finishing the morning meeting, Kitahara Sosuke returned to the office and had just made tea when he received an unexpected text message.
The person who sent the message was his close friend Hashimoto Shota. The latter also quit his job at Tosan after marrying Ryoko Uchida, and now assists him in handling some Kitahara Investment club affairs.
Of course, Hashimoto Shota has no way to get access to the core business and has no way to gain real power. He himself doesn't care about this. He came to Kitahara to invest and was just lazy in the name of study so as not to be used by his father to fight with Kitahara Sosuke every day.
Compare.
He currently serves as the director of the external finance department of Beihara Investment and is only responsible for external negotiation work.
Due to his family background, Hashimoto Shota has a large amount of information resources. This sudden message was to inform Kitahara Sosuke of an important personnel transfer.
A major transfer of power is about to take place in the Banking Bureau under the Ministry of Finance. The former Director of the Banking Bureau, Nobuyuki Teramura, will resign and will be replaced by his junior, Yoshimasa Nishimura.
Nishimura Yoshimasa is just fifty years old this year. He graduated from the Faculty of Law of the University of Tokyo and returned from studying abroad. He is the helmsman of the Nishimura family, a wealthy local family in Tokyo. He also has another important identity - a key member of the Socialist Party.
Nishimura Yoshimasa was originally an assistant secretary in the Ministry of Finance. He only reached this position at this age and his political career was basically over. However, he was a close friend of Hata Tsutomu when he was at Tokyo University. He was also a talented person in the Faculty of Law. After the division of the Ministry of Finance, he
He was dragged to the Ministry of Finance by Hata Tsubasa instead of the Financial Services Agency.
Now he is suddenly promoted to director of the Banking Bureau, which shows that the Socialist Party has made a breakthrough in the confrontation.
In other words, Hata Zi is ready to take action!
This was a signal to him that Kitahara Sosuke could also attack, and he no longer had to hide his trump card.
He did not rush to take action, but first called Ryutaro Hashimoto. He did not mention the personnel changes in the bank bureau, but just thanked him for his help in the Fujiwara Norika matter.
During the chat, Kitahara Sosuke confirmed the information that the Socialist Party was taking action, then hung up the phone and raised his chin.
Unexpectedly, the speed of Hosokawa Morihi's downfall was so much faster than in his previous life. I don't know if it has something to do with his participation.
