Reborn Tokyo Golden Age

Chapter 523 Exclusive Interview

On the second day of mid-June, Shirakawa Electric appeared on the headlines of major newspapers and periodicals as expected.

This extremely long shareholder meeting is destined to become a landmark event in the history of neon economy.

"The invincible Baichuan!"

"13 hours and 30 minutes! Neon's longest shareholder meeting in history!"

"Refuse to compromise! Shirakawa Electric goes head-to-head with the Headquarters!"

"The cancer that clings to listed companies will always be punished and punished!"

"Nikkei Shimbun", "Yomiuri Shimbun", and "Asahi Shimbun" all invariably reported on yesterday's events at large on this day.

Of course, the Mainichi Shimbun under Shirakawa Holdings will not be absent, and it directly targets the clubhouse itself.

The Shirakawa Electric shareholders' meeting is indeed worthy of special praise, but the general meeting is the crux of the matter.

As the mouthpiece of Shirakawa Holdings, the Mainichi Shimbun even published the notification letter handed to Shirakawa Electric by the headquarters.

The words "10 billion yen" are extremely conspicuous in the entire newspaper.

This naked number, like the naked ambition of the Association, was directly exposed to the broad daylight.

Although Koike Ryuichi faced reporters' cameras and strongly denied that this was not the work of the General House.

However, due to intensive reports from major media, the General House has been pushed to the forefront.

Even super giant companies like Shirakawa Electric Co., Ltd. have been blackmailed by the association. What about other general clubs?

For the first time, Neon people had an intuitive impression of this gangster group hidden in the stock market.

The General House is different from yakuza like the Yamaguchi-gumi. Their targets are not ordinary people, but listed companies.

Therefore, compared to the violent groups in my impression, the General House has always been inconspicuous.

But after this incident, everyone finally knew that there was such a lawless Yakuza organization.

Taking advantage of the public's dislike of the association, corporate presidents who had been blackmailed by it in the past have also come forward to speak out.

"It's a very troublesome existence. Many times they are making trouble unreasonably."

"They will oppose any resolution announced by the club. They are not even aware of these resolutions, they are just opposing them for the sake of opposing them."

"Although it is not stated clearly, it is actually extortion. As long as you pay the special advisory fee, you will no longer have any objections."

How many have the Federation House targeted hundreds of listed companies over the years?

Although most of them remained silent, as long as a few stood up, a wave of condemnation was formed.

However, the General House really attracted everyone's attention because of Shirakawa Electric's extremely long shareholder meeting.

As a national brand, when it encounters such a thing, it naturally attracts a lot of attention.

Regardless of what the final result will be, there is now a general consensus among all sectors of society that Shirakawa Electric is a tough nut to crack.

The founder of the group personally confronted the General House at the meeting and fought for more than ten hours, finally forcing the opponent to retreat.

This determination to never give in is enough for many people to understand that Shirakawa Electric will never give up.

There is still a commotion outside about this matter, but Shirakawa Electric has already returned to normal here.

As a direct party to this incident, Baichuan Feng received a special visitor here at Baichuan Holdings Building.

"Shirakawa-san, it's an honor to have this opportunity to interview you.

Our conversation will be recorded next. Is that okay with you? "

As he spoke, Nagano Kenji took out a pocket tape recorder and placed it on the table between the two of them.

"Of course" Bai Chuanfeng smiled freely, "This is your job, so there is no problem."

As he said this, he glanced slightly, oh, the recorder is still a product of Shirakawa Electric.

This Nagano-san has a lot of heart, and Bai Chuanfeng feels a little proud in his heart.

In fact, he didn't want to be interviewed originally, but he still wanted to give him some face.

Kenji Nagano graduated from the Department of Economics of Kyoto University and currently serves as deputy editor-in-chief of Nihon Keizai Shimbun.

This status can only be said to be commendable, but it is not to the point where Bai Chuanfeng must receive him.

But he can't stand up to his greatness. Nagano is currently serving as the president of the Economic Federation, which is also the position of chief financial officer.

With such a relationship, of course Bai Chuanfeng must give him some face.

After all, Shirakawa Holdings is also a member of the chaebol group, so strictly speaking, Nagano Kenji can be considered a member of his own force.

Although he was respectful to Bai Chuanfeng, he was actually more than ten years older than Bai Chuanfeng.

But as a reporter, Nagano Kenji is well versed in the ways of the world, especially when the interviewee is Shirakawa Kaede, who is known as the business legend.

So even though his relationship was strong enough, Nagano Kenji still gave Shirakawa Kaede enough respect.

"Yesterday just passed, something big happened."

Nagano Kenji took out his notebook and started casually chatting about yesterday's events.

"Yesterday?" Bai Chuanfeng smiled, "It is indeed impressive."

Nagano: So Shirakawa-san, what do you think of yesterday?

Shirakawa Kaede: It’s just a farce, but for those shareholders who really want to give their opinions and make suggestions for Shirakawa Electric. I also need to say sorry to them here.

Kenji Nagano: Did the General Office have a great impact on the shareholders’ meeting?

Shirakawa Kaede: In terms of the order of the meeting, it caused a certain amount of chaos.

Kenji Nagano: So the general meeting is more like a negative existence for the shareholders’ meeting?

Shirakawa Kaede: Of course, this is something everyone knows.

Kenji Nagano: Can you tell me more about it?

Shirakawa Kaede: Take Shirakawa Electric as an example, because we rejected them. Therefore, a week before the shareholders' meeting, the stock market began to be filled with various rumors about Shirakawa Electric.

Although these so-called gossips were all confirmed to be rumors. However, Shirakawa Electric's stock price was affected by this and still experienced large fluctuations.

There is no doubt that the General Assembly does not mind the means it uses in order to achieve a certain goal.

Nagano Kenji: Some kind of purpose?

Bai Chuanfeng had a smile on his face: They call it consulting fees, but everyone knows the reality.

Kenji Nagano: So the sky-high 10 billion consulting fee published in the Mainichi News is true?

Shirakawa Kaede: This letter is indeed some kind of reconciliation condition sent to Shirakawa Electric by external forces. I was also shocked when I saw them.

Kenji Nagano: It’s really surprising. What was your first thought when you encountered such a thing?

Bai Chuanfeng shrugged: I thought it was a prank at first, but it turns out no one is that boring.

Yesterday's shareholders' meeting was the price we paid for rejecting this condition.

Kenji Nagano: Do ​​you have any specific measures against violent groups such as the General House that are restricted by law?

Shirakawa Kaede: Since it is a group subject to legal restrictions, of course we are willing to cooperate with law enforcement agencies in investigating it.

Of course, considering that similar things will happen again at future shareholders’ meetings, we are planning to establish a shareholder representative coordinating committee.

From now on, the candidates to participate in the shareholders' meeting every year will be selected by it. The review members of the coordinating committee will also all come from outside, and Shirakawa Electric will not participate.

Kenji Nagano: That’s a good idea. Can you ask a somewhat sensitive personal question next?

Bai Chuanfeng shrugged: Please tell me, I will answer carefully.

Nagano Kenji laughed, and then calmed down: It is said that before the start of the shareholders' meeting yesterday, Ogawa-san from the general office gave you a special meeting gift?

Bai Chuanfeng's expression was indifferent and his tone was calm: It's a very Taoist meeting gift, and of course it's definitely impressive.

Nagano Kenji's tone was full of temptation: It is said that the gift was rude, and Hasegawa-san seemed to be very angry about this?

Bai Chuanfeng glanced at him gently: Believe me, no one who receives such a gift can forgive the other person's behavior.

Nagano Kenji was very curious about what kind of things made the other party feel unforgivable. There were also different opinions on this so-called meeting gift.

However, seeing Bai Chuanfeng's indifferent expression, he wisely avoided the topic.

Kenji Nagano: Shirakawa-san, please tell us about Neon’s current economy.

Shirakawa Kaede: This is a very grand issue, and we who are in the whirlpool may not be able to see it too clearly.

Kenji Nagano: You seem to have a different view on the current environment?

Bai Chuanfeng shook his head: It was just a sigh. The income from investing in the stock market and real estate even exceeded the income of ordinary people working hard for a year.

The emergence of high-priced apartments in the city center that ordinary white-collar workers cannot afford after four lifetimes of hard work is enough to destroy people's values.

Everyone feels that hard work is not worthwhile and complains about the gap between rich and poor.

In the frenzied wave of money worship, people fall into the whirlpool of desire, lamenting life but unable to extricate themselves.

"Pah!" Looking at the Nikkei special report in his hand, Koike Ryuichi slapped it on the table angrily.

"This guy himself is a black-hearted capitalist, but now he behaves so compassionately. It's really shameless!"

"Xiaochi-san, do you want to go find Xiaolin-san?

If we can win the shares of Shirakawa Electric from First Bank, we can openly participate in the other party's business decisions.

In that case, when the time comes..." Kaoru Ogawa showed a meaningful look.

"I'm afraid that First Bank will not let go so easily. This is an important investment for them."

Although Koike Ryuichi was moved, he was not stupid. How could First Bank give up its shareholding in Shirakawa Electric?

"Many of First Bank's accounts are with us. How can we know if we don't try them?

In addition, Kobayashi Sang can negotiate an agreement, so it may not be impossible. "

Kaoru Ogawa doesn't see it that way. It all depends on people. There are many people within the First Bank that have a handle on him.

Bewitched by Kaoru Ogawa, Koike Ryuichi's inner desire can no longer be suppressed.

Yes, it's almost there. Now the General House has nearly 10% of Shirakawa Electric's shares.

If the share held by First Bank is added, then they will complete a 20% holding of Diabai Electric.

According to the provisions of the "Equity Law", if the 20% shareholding threshold is reached, the General House can participate in the daily operations of Shirakawa Electric in an open and honest manner.

As long as he can penetrate inside, Koike Ryuichi has many ways to slowly toss Shirakawa Electric.

Thinking of this, he immediately picked up the phone and started dialing a confidential figure in the Tibet Province.
