Mitsui Takamichi was about fifty years old. Like everyone else at the scene, he was wearing a black handmade custom-made tuxedo with a faint smile on his face. He was not arrogant. When he said these words to Chu Huan, he was just
It's natural.
I told Chu Huan to give me some face, so just give me this face and agree happily!
Then everyone chatted casually for a few words, and today's affairs were over.
This is Mitsui Takamichi's idea.
Chu Huan looked at Mitsui Takamichi with interest. No wonder there is a saying in the Mitsui family that they would rather have a daughter than a son!
After all, a son cannot choose, but a son-in-law can.
At the same time, the founder of the Mitsui family also created a unique family inheritance method of "dividing families without dividing powers", and also established a complete "family constitution" to regulate competition and inheritance within the family.
Mitsui Takuri not only gave birth to six sons, but also recruited capable adopted sons as sons-in-law, integrating female families into the family structure. During his lifetime, he established eight male head families, and later added three female joint families, forming a
The famous Mitsui Eleven Family.
Mitsui's choice of "son-in-law and adopted son" only depends on ability. As long as the ability is outstanding, even a boy from the slums will have the opportunity to inherit such a large business, marry Bai Fumei, and become CEO.
For an adopted son or son-in-law, no matter where he comes from, as long as he joins the family tree, he has the responsibility to shoulder the family business and move forward.
This kind of "separation of families without division of power" not only consolidates the relationship between blood relatives and in-laws within the family, but also actively introduces outside talents to ensure the youth within the family and preserve the longevity of the family business from generation to generation.
According to incomplete statistics, from 1900 to 1945, among the total 29 clan heads of the Mitsui family, the main family and the Lian family, 6 were adopted sons with foreign surnames, accounting for about 21%.
In addition, in order to consolidate the relationship within the family, the Mitsui family often carries out intra-family marriages, which also effectively prevents the outflow of property and maintains social connections.
But no matter what kind of family it is, or how many years it has been passed down, there will always be some people who don’t know how high the level of the family is.
And now this is the case with Mitsui Takamichi.
Chu Huan really hopes to make his business in Japan one of the top chaebols in Japan, but this does not mean that Chu Huan will do anything to bend down to the Mitsui family.
If the person who came here to talk to him about this matter was Mitsui Gaonaga, the head of the contemporary Mitsui family, and his attitude was better, Chu Huan would consider his suggestion.
Now it's just Mitsui Takamichi, a person who doesn't have much power within the Mitsui family, who wants to let He Chu Huan give him this face here.
Do you really think you have eaten the fruit of face?
Seeing that Chu Huan didn't speak, Mitsui Takamichi said impatiently: "I will assume that Chu Sang has agreed to this matter, and that will be the case."
After saying that, Mitsui Takamichi turned around and left with Tsutsumi Seiji.
Then Mitsui Takamichi heard Chu Huan's voice behind him: "Things will definitely not be like this!"
Mitsui Takamichi, who took a step forward, turned back to look at Chu Huan and asked in confusion: "What do you mean?"
Chu Huan shook his head, and suddenly realized that talking to such a self-esteemed person would lose his identity, so he smiled and said: "It's nothing, I'm just telling you that your face doesn't matter to me. If there is anything wrong with me,
If you are satisfied, you can definitely take action, I will continue!"
Chu Huan has really seen too many people like Mitsui Takamichi. This kind of person is self-centered. He is the boss of the sky, the second boss of the earth, and the third boss. As long as your decision is inconsistent with his ideas, then he will
He arbitrarily thinks that you are denying his suggestion. As for the reason, he doesn't care at all. What he cares about is that you don't agree with his decision.
There is no use in explaining anything!
Mitsui Takamichi stood looking at Chu Huan's back, with an angry look on his face. Just as Chu Huan thought, Mitsui Takamichi never thought that Chu Huan would reject his suggestion.
This is Japan. He is a direct descendant of the Mitsui family, Mitsui Takamichi, and the younger brother of the current head of the Mitsui family, Mitsui Takamichi.
With such an identity, let alone a Xiangjiang businessman, even when facing the Prime Minister of Japan, they can talk and laugh happily.
Now Chu Huan is so unwilling to give himself face?
But Mitsui Takamichi is a member of the Mitsui family after all. Even if it is because of his personality, he will not really get entangled with Chu Huan on such an occasion.
"Haha, it's interesting. I want to see how much energy this Chu Huan has!"
Tsutsumi Seiji, who was standing next to Mitsui Takamichi, was also a little surprised at this time. Although Tsutsumi Yoshiaki had been reminded before and knew what kind of person Chu Huan was, he did not expect that Chu Huan would be so arrogant. Even Mitsui
Gao Dao didn't even give him any face.
"Chu Sang, what just happened?"
Although there was no real conflict between Chu Huan and Mitsui Takamichi, the conversation between the two just now caught the attention of some people at the scene.
Especially Hisao Tsubouchi, who had just reached a cooperation with Chu Huan.
At this time, he had already walked up to Chu Huan and asked Chu Huan what happened just now.
Chu Huan smiled and said: "It's okay, Mitsui Takamichi wants me to sell him a favor, but I don't agree!"
After hearing this, Tsubouchi Hisao was a little silent, but finally said: "Chu Sang, if what Mitsui Takamichi said is not too serious, I don't think there is any need to have any conflicts with the Mitsui family. As a businessman, you still have to
Harmony brings wealth."
Chu Huanxiao looked at Hisao Tsubouchi and said, "Mr. Tsubouchi, do you really think that what happened just now was a simple matter of giving face?"
Seeing what Chu Huan said, Hisao Tsubouchi sighed and said nothing.
.
"It seems that this Chu Huan really wants to do something in Japan, and his ambition is very big!"
In another corner of the dinner party, Sumitomo Yoshio and Hota Shozo, who were also paying attention to Chu Huan, were also discussing what had just happened.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Hota Shozo said calmly: "That time just now, was it the Mitsui family's idea or Mitsui Takamichi's personal idea?"
Sumitomo Yoshio analyzed: "It's just Mitsui Takamichi's personal thoughts, and the Mitsui family is behind it!"
Sumitomo Yoshio then continued: "When we just had an internal meeting, I said that Chu Huan and our Sumitomo family would reach marriage and cooperation, I think many people have actually understood what Chu Huan meant.
Chu Huan did join our group with more cakes, but because it is a cooperation with our Sumitomo family, we should eat this cake. I think some people will definitely be dissatisfied.
So they wanted to try Chu Huan's attitude.
It has to be said that this Chu Huan is really thoughtful. If Mitsui Takamichi's proposal is agreed to this time, then other companies will find Chu Huan one after another and seek to get more benefits from Chu Huan.
To give in once is to give in step by step.”
Hota Shozo said: "So, the next step is for Chu Huan to prove to these people that he has the energy to sit with us and eat this cake together?"
"Yes!" Sumitomo Yoshio said with a smile: "I also want to see if Chu Huan has the energy to actually step onto this stage!"
Although the Sumitomo family has now formed preliminary ideas for marriage with Chu Huan, this does not mean that Sumitomo Yoshio will help Chu Huan without any bottom line in Japan.
Marriage is an external condition, and one's own ability is the important reason for whether Chu Huan can really step onto the stage and become Japan's new generation of chaebol!
"How much power will the Mitsui family use this time?"
Although Shozo Hota is the most important external partner of the Sumitomo family and the most important figure in the Sumitomo Foundation, he still does not understand as much as Yoshio Sumitomo about the ways within the family.
Sumitomo Yoshio pondered for a moment and said: "Not too much. At most, it will provide some other help besides Mitsui Takamichi's own power.
Mitsui Gaochang is an old fox. This time he just wanted to see if Chu Huan had the strength to stand on the stage. He didn't really want to fall out with Chu Huan.
Mitsui Takamichi can serve as Chu Huan's sword test stone. If Chu Huan can really pass Mitsui Takamichi's test, it means that Chu Huan is qualified to serve. At that time, Mitsui Takamichi will still know how to do it.
Choosing to cooperate with Chu Huan, after all, Chu Huan’s influence in China is very important, and the Mitsui family has been keeping an eye on the Chinese market!”
Hota Shozo nodded, and then continued to ask: "What about the other families?"
Sumitomo Yoshio smiled and said: "Of course we are sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers. You must know that Chu Huan has his own industry not only in Japan and Xiangjiang. North America and Europe have industries that are not weaker than those in Japan and Xiangjiang, and are even better.
huge.
We people don’t know that the president of the San Francisco Federal Reserve Bank is planning to come to Japan, but Chu Huan already knows about it, which actually explains a lot of things!"
.
In another corner of the dinner, there were two people discussing Chu Huan's affairs.
One of these two people is Toshio Tomitsu, who just chatted with Chu Huan, and the other is Takano Mitsui, the contemporary head of the Mitsui family who is famous in the Japanese business world.
Mitsui Takamichi is over 70 years old. As for why his younger brother Mitsui Takamichi is only over 50 years old... The Mitsui family is one of the largest families in Japan. Isn't it common for the head of the family to have several wives?
Mitsui Takanaga is not only the current head of the Mitsui family, but also the chairman of Sakura Bank and the father-in-law of Shoichiro Toyoda, the current chairman of the Toyota Foundation.
Tu Guangminfu said seriously: "I think such behavior is completely unnecessary. Chu Huan's influence in Xiangjiang, influence in China, and financial resources in Japan do not make it necessary for Gao Daojun to do this.
matter!"
Mitsui Takacho smiled relaxedly and said: "Mr. Toshio, of course I know Chu Huan's influence, but just because this person is influential, we cannot easily enter the Japanese market and let him take away our cake.
Bar?"
Tu Guangminfu said: "You are wrong, Chu Huan came in with a cake!"
Mitsui Takacho said nonchalantly: "So what? There have been so many people coming in with cakes over the years. We haven't eaten them all in the end."
At this point, Mitsui Gao smiled and continued to persuade Toshio Toshifu: "Mr. Toshifu, I know what you are thinking. Don't worry, we don't really want to eat up all of Chu Huan's business in Japan, we just want to
Let Chu Huan understand one thing: this is Japan, not Xiangjiang, nor China.
The rules of the game in Japan are set by us, and since he is here, he must abide by our rules of the game instead of dreaming of becoming one of the rule makers here like us."
Tu Guangminfu asked: "What if Chu Huan can really break Gao Daojun's sanctions this time?"
Mitsui Takamichi's eyes looked back and forth at Chu Huan and Mitsui Takamichi who had separated, and then said: "That means that Mitsui Takamichi is no longer suitable to hold any position.
Just stay at home, as for Chu Huan?
Since he has the ability, influence, and financial resources, as long as he can ensure that his interests are consistent with ours, he will join.
Just as Mr. Min Fu and Mr. Fang Fu said, Chu Huan came in with a cake, and if there is a bigger cake to share, we still welcome it!"
Tu Guangminfu finally laid his eyes on Chu Huan and said: "Okay!"
.
After the dinner, Chu Huan took Anhui Tanaka back to his residence in Osaka. After making a few phone calls, Chu Huan went to bed.
The next day!
Chu Huan, who had just finished boxing, heard Tianzhong Anhui come out and say to Chu Huan: "Chu Sang, Miss Wu called and said that she has something urgent to see you!"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Chu Huan took the towel from Tanaka Anhui's hand, wiped the sweat on his face, and said: "I understand."
Coming to the living room, Chu Huan picked up the phone, "I'm Chu Huan, the other party took action?"
Wu Xiaoshi's voice came from the other side of the phone, saying: "Yes, several major fashion rivals in Japan suddenly announced price cuts this morning. In addition, I just received a call from Nozaki Yusuke. The Japanese government called Nozaki.
Kosuke, prepare to meet with Kosuke Nozaki to discuss matters regarding Nikko. At the same time, Huang Yongzheng and Yu Xuede also received interviews from the Tokyo government respectively to question them about their malicious behavior of wantonly raising housing prices in Tokyo."
Last night, although Chu Huan looked down on Mitsui Takamichi, Chu Huan did not despise him. After all, Mitsui Takamichi was backed by the Mitsui family.
So after Chu Huan returned to his residence last night, he called Wu Xiaoshi. At this time, his official business in Japan was the Japanese Jiaku Foundation.
And if Mitsui Takamichi wants to let himself know his weight, he will definitely take action against Japan Kaku.
Obviously, Chu Huan's guess was not wrong. Early this morning, Huahai Real Estate, Haiyun Real Estate, Nichidong Film and Television Co., Ltd., and Japan Qingjin Clothing under Japan Jiaku were all hit to varying degrees.
"Chairman, Miss Wu asked me to tell you that she has bought the earliest plane to Osaka!" Wu Xiaoshi continued.
Chu Huan smiled, but he could also understand Wu Shuhan's worry. After all, this time he was facing the Mitsui family, not the Japanese cats and dogs.
"I understand, I will send someone to pick her up at the airport."
"Well!" Wu Xiaoshi asked Chu Huan on the phone, also worried: "Chairman, what should we do now?"
The other party has already taken action, so Chu Huan will naturally have to deal with it. If he can't even deal with this blow, then Chu Huan's idea of making Japan Jiaku a Japanese chaebol will be impossible to realize.
"Did Shu Han come here with the information I asked for?"
Chu Huan called Wu Shuhan last night. As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and the enemy can you win every battle. If Chu Huan wants to defeat Mitsui Takamichi at home in Japan, then he naturally needs to know Mitsui Takamichi's situation.
Wu Xiaoshi said: "Yes!"
Chu Huan nodded and said: "That's good. Regarding fashion, if the other party cuts the price, we will also reduce the price. It's enough. As for Huahai Real Estate, Haiyun Real Estate and Nichido, let them deal with it normally. I will
There will be a way!"
Wu Xiaoshi had become accustomed to Chu Huan being able to solve any problem. Now that she heard Chu Huan's calm expression, her worries became less intense.
"OK!"
.
"Solve it?" In a top-level flat-floor apartment in Osaka, Mitsui Takamichi sat there leisurely, shaking a red wine glass in his hand, with a relaxed smile on his face, and said: "How does he solve it? Qingji-kun,
You have to know that this is Japan, not Xiangjiang.
Japan’s stock market is different from Hong Kong’s. With so many related companies, it is simply impossible for Chu Huan to short our company!”
Just now, Seiji Tsutsumi was worried about Chu Huan and told Mitsui Takamichi.
Now that the two sides are officially on opposite sides, Tsutsumi Seiji naturally needs to investigate Chu Huan's situation.
So after leaving Sumitomo Yoshio's manor last night, Seiji Tsutsumi immediately called his staff in Xiangjiang and asked them to try their best to report all Chu Huan's situation in Xiangjiang by fax before eight o'clock this morning.
give him.
After watching Chu Huan's situation in Xiangjiang, Seiji Tsui discovered a pattern, that is, Chu Huan really liked to attack his opponents in the stock market.
Seiji Tsutsumi later found Mitsui Takamichi with his analysis and told Mitsui Takamichi.
After Mitsui Takamichi heard about this incident, he was not in any anxious state.
Although Japan's stock market also has its own short-selling mechanism, as mentioned before, the chaebols throughout Japan have already formed a huge interest network through various equity operations, and the whole of Japan can even be called -
Dai Nippon Co., Ltd.
If it is an ordinary listed company, short selling is short selling.
But when it comes to large companies like Mitsui Chemicals and Seibu Department Store, that's a different story.
Behind them are Sakura Bank, which keeps pace with them, and securities companies that hold shares in their company, and they are inextricably linked to each other.
It is basically impossible for Chu Huan to borrow stocks from these securities companies.
To put it another way, even if Chu Huan borrowed their company's stocks and wanted to short them in the stock market, they could easily transfer cash and entrust them with their relationship with Sakura Bank and other consortiums in Japan.
At the end of the day, Chu Huan could only recycle the stocks at a high price and return them to the securities company.
So if you look at the cases of malicious short selling in Japan that led to the collapse of a company, there was basically no such thing. It was more about the super capital uniting to short the entire Japanese yen, which led to the collapse of the Japanese stock market.
The one-way short selling of a group with a chaebol background through certain operations in the stock market basically does not exist in the Japanese stock market.
So this is the source of Mitsui Takamichi's confidence.
He admitted that Chu Huan did have cash in his hands that was beyond his reach, but sometimes the gap in cash was actually not important.
In Japan, personal connections are the most important.
And this is where Mitsui Takamichi understands his advantage.
He could use his connections to cause problems in Chu Huan's business in Japan overnight, but although Chu Huan had money, Chu Huan's influence in Japan could not do this.
Tsutsumi Seiji thought for a moment, and felt a lot more relaxed, and said, "So, Chu Huan's defeat this time is already doomed?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Mitsui Takamichi still said with a relaxed expression: "Naturally, Chu Huan thought too simply about the situation of our Japanese Empire, thinking that his business would reach the peak in Japan.
If you reach a certain size, you will be able to compete with us and want to become one of us.
This is simply a joke. Through this incident, we are trying to make Chu Huan understand that it is okay to make money, but you have to kneel to make it. If you want to sit on the table like us,
, everyone made money after discussing it with Heqi Qi Shang, who does not have this qualification in Japan."
After Tsutsumi Seiji reviewed Chu Huan's situation in Japan in his own mind, he believed that what Mitsui Takamichi said was correct and said with a smile: "I understand!"
"Qing Erjun, just wait here with peace of mind. I can tell you that Chu Huan will take the initiative to apologize to us within three days!"
Mitsui Takamichi smiled and preached.
Di Qingji nodded, also showed a smile, and said: "If we can make Chu Huan bow his head this time, then we can seek more opportunities to cooperate with Chu Huan in the Xiangjiang market. If there is Chu Huan in the Xiangjiang market,
With help, Seibu Department Store can become the number one department store in Hong Kong!"
Is attacking Chu Huan's property in Japan just to make Chu Huan understand his status in Japan?
Of course this is not the case!
In the final analysis, whether it is Mitsui Takamichi, Tetsuji Seiji, or the Mitsui family behind them, they still value Chu Huan's influence in Xiangjiang.
As long as they can defeat Chu Huan in Japan this time, they can start negotiations with Chu Huan.
Suppression is just a means, what they value most is the interests in Chu Huan's hands.
"Qing Erjun, you need to take a longer view. We are interested in more than just Chu Huan's interests in Xiangjiang!"
Mitsui Takamichi preached with confidence.
Tsutsumi Seiji looked at Mitsui Takamichi in a daze, then thought of something else, and asked with some excitement: "Is it possible that Chu Huan still has interests in North America and Europe?"
At this time, Mitsui Takamichi's face no longer had the excitement just now, but he said helplessly: "No, although we don't know Chu Huan's profits in North America and Europe, we can be sure that these two
The profits of this place are definitely not less than Japan, or even higher than Japan.
It would be unrealistic for Chu Huan to give up some of his North American and European interests just because of the loss of Japanese interests.
What we focus on is his interests in Japan."
The size of Jiaoku in Japan is no longer weaker than that of any Japanese consortium, but in terms of profits, it is even Toyota, the single consortium with the largest profits in Japan!
Naturally, only Chu Huan and the senior management of Japan's Jiaku know the specific data, but it is estimated that these chaebols in Japan can still see it.
So they have no reason not to be interested in these wealth.
As long as Chu Huan can be hit in Japan this time, then if Chu Huan wants to continue to maintain his industry in Japan, he will need to give up more profits.
"With just one share of Alder Commercial Bank Japan Branch, it is impossible for the Sumitomo family to completely side with Chu Huan.
They want more profits, and we don’t want to miss out on the cake this time either.”
Mitsui Takamichi preached calmly.
Only then did Tsutsumi Seiji understand the true thoughts of these people. If this is the case, maybe after ten or twenty years, Japan's Jiaku will no longer just belong to Chu Huan, and will evolve into someone who is attached to Japan.
A member of Futuki-kai under the Zaibatsu!
The so-called Futuki Association is actually various affiliated companies that are attached to the major chaebols.
"It's impossible for Chu Huan to make Japan's Jiaku a new generation of chaebol, but it's still possible to incorporate it into the Ermu Society!"
In the end, Mitsui Takamichi's words also confirmed Tsutsumi Seiji's thoughts.
.
"Boss, regarding matters related to Huahai Real Estate, Haiyun Real Estate, and Nikko Film and Television Co., Ltd., can Gao Kai's connections in Japan be used?"
After Wu Shuhan came to Osaka and met Chu Huan, he preached directly.
In the past few years, Gao Kai has contacted many official people in Japan. In Wu Shuhan's opinion, the current situation is the time to use the power of these people.
However, after listening to Wu Shuhan's suggestion, Chu Huan directly shook his head and said: "It can't be used. Do you really think that Gao Kai's operation in Japan in the past few years can be compared with the Mitsui family's operation for hundreds of years?"
?
If you really want to use these people, do you believe it? Maybe when Gao Kai talked about this matter, these people had already quietly reported it to the Mitsui family!"
Wu Shuhan said angrily: "If we can't use them at this time, then what were we doing with these people before?"
Chu Huan could only explain to Wu Shuhan: "Because everything has to be done step by step. These chaebol families in Japan also started from scratch and grew up from small to large. We are just walking before them.
It's just a road ahead. Only with time can we truly have the right to have equal dialogue with them in this regard.
If someone is sacrificed at this time, it will really expose one of our trump cards. When these people are not strong enough, playing their card will only destroy them!
"
Wu Shuhan became more and more helpless: "Don't we have any other options?"
