Chapter 135 The eve of the decisive battle

December 15, 1991.

For four days, negotiations on the final ownership of a large number of copper futures contracts came to an end at a luxury hotel in London, England.

Many tycoons involved in this negotiation are very satisfied with the result.

The Japanese woman who has been taking the lead and single-handedly resisting many giants in the financial industry has also made a small splash in the global financial circle.

Kobayashi Kyoko's clear thinking, resolute attitude, and courageous tactics fully reflect the abilities and qualities of a securities expert. Kitahara Securities Co., Ltd. headed by her took root in London and became the biggest winner of this negotiation, which also opened the door for Kitahara.

This is the club’s first overseas venture.

Those financial giants who had been gathered by Kitahara Sosuke because of the huge copper futures profits in the hands of the Sumitomo Foundation all got the benefits they had agreed upon before. The only one who suffered a heavy blow was the Sumitomo Foundation.

Ichiro Katida, who came to negotiate on behalf of Sumitomo, changed his previous ruthless style and became very easy to talk to for some reason. He accepted all conditions and had only one demand, which was to re-purchase the 5% copper futures that originally belonged to Sumitomo.

Take it back into your hand.

For this he is willing to pay any price.

After the copper futures war ended, Kitahara Sosuke's name also resounded throughout the global financial community.

During the first Gulf War, some people thought that he was just lucky and just ahead of the trend of the times. This time, the copper futures war completely convinced a large number of financial giants.

For a new financial god, no matter what country he comes from or what color his skin is, he will be courted and praised by celebrities from all walks of life.

Strength is the best proof of a man’s charm.

Everyone knows Kyoko Kobayashi, the woman who speaks the harshest lines in the gentlest tone on stage. She is the spokesperson of Kitahara Sosuke in the securities industry, so she is given enough respect.

After stepping off the stage, Kobayashi Kyoko was still a little confused.

She knew that the financial giants in the audience today were willing to listen to a little woman like her saying that she had the final decision-making power on the transaction entirely because they respected Sosuke Kitahara behind them.

He brought himself glory that he had never imagined.

After this negotiation, the Sumitomo Consortium, which has been at the forefront for more than half a century, will sadly leave the top spot in the copper futures market, and it is unknown when it will return.

And Hamanaka Taio, who once independently formulated the market rules, has been completely reduced to a prisoner. The Sumitomo Foundation has also stated that it will thoroughly investigate all problems with Hamanaka Taio and give a reasonable explanation to both the company and the outside world.

After Hamanaka Taio was arrested, Takeshita Nobu, who had had close contact with him before, was quickly blacklisted by various financial companies and regulatory authorities.

They don't care if you are the son of a wealthy family in Tokyo, Japan. In the global industry, what matters more is ability and skills, and family background is just a supplement.

Compared with Kitahara Sosuke, who was at the height of his power and had convinced many overseas financiers through several precise operations, Takeshita Nobu had no reputation and no credibility.

Ichiro Katsuda's quick surrender had a great impact on the domestic situation in Japan.

Especially the alliance headed by the Takeshita family. They originally hoped that Ichiro Chida could be tougher. At least on the issue of copper futures, Sumitomo should not admit defeat to Kitahara Sosuke too quickly. The longer it was delayed, the better it would be for them.

However, the battle was over in just four days.

It ended with Kithara Sosuke's victory, which was jaw-dropping.

What’s even more outrageous is that during the entire process, there was no reaction within the Sumitomo Foundation. They watched helplessly as Ichiro Katsuda surrendered, released a large amount of profits, and watched the Sumitomo Foundation withdraw from the copper futures market without any action.

It was not until December 16th that Sumitomo Corporation issued an official document announcing the retirement of a large number of core management personnel, the appointment of a large number of new people, and the official appointment of Ichiro Kita as the honorary chairman of Sumitomo Bank and his resignation as president, that others gradually realized

The minor nature of the problem.

In the next four days, the Sumitomo Foundation had no contact with the outside world and carried out rounds of brutal personnel changes and industrial chain adjustments. A rare wave of major changes in internal management took place!

A casual study can reveal that those who were transferred or retired were all related personnel of the Jitian family, and all these vacant positions were taken over by other families.

This is their default reason for what Ichiro Katsuda did in London.

Ichiro Katsuda paid a heavy price for his family's survival, and his exit also indirectly announced the bet of the century, and the Sumitomo Consortium was officially out!

The pressure suddenly came to Shen Chen's house.

Without the support of the top financial groups, other financial groups that had previously vowed to assist the Shen Chen family have changed their direction.

Except for Dongsan who was forced to stud, others entered the wait-and-see stage.

At this time, rounds of counterattacks from Kitahara Sosuke started.

On the Congress and government side, the mess of Tokyo Mutual Bank and the tragic situation in the financial industry are always reminding these high-ranking lawmakers that if they want to keep their positions, they should quickly help the people solve these difficult problems.

Secondly, the most popular talk show, the thirty years lost in the bubble economy, has continued to soar in ratings, has already gained national popularity, and has also aroused waves of dissatisfaction with rising prices.

It is already very easy to suppress these riots, let alone obstruct them and put pressure on Kitahara Shinchen in public opinion.

As necessities are in short supply, the Agricultural Federation Associations cannot stand it any longer. The Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry, Industry and Industry has ended its rounds of investigations against these associations and asked them to release supplies as soon as possible.

Waves of stockpiled supplies were quickly sold out after being released!

Prices are still rising, supplies are still in short supply, and nothing has changed.

what to do?

The warehouse is bottomed out

Since the signing of the Belovezh Agreement, there has been a global frenzy to stop ruble trading.

The ruble to yen exchange rate is at its lowest ever.

There is still a price but no market.

Sumitomo Bank, which had eaten up so many rubles, was in financial crisis.

And those smaller financial institutions were even more unlucky, struggling and waiting for rescue, but when they looked up, good guys, the Bank of Japan and the Ministry of Finance also had too much to take care of themselves.

What about other large metropolitan banks?

The only one with the financial resources to spare is the Kitahara Shenlang Credit Bank.

The issue is

Kitahara Shenlang Credit Bank is not a banking institution. According to relevant legal provisions, it has no right to interfere with the internal operations of the financial market. Kitahara Takeshita said that he was powerless and felt very guilty.

In this way, it was December 21st.

Eleven union republics except the three Baltic states and Georgia signed the Declaration of Alma-Ata and the Protocol to the Commonwealth of Independent States Agreement.

This means that a disintegration event is about to occur.

On this day, Yelkin also announced that he would stop printing money and the total amount of rubles would not increase.

After all, if the number is increased, there will be no room left.
