Chapter 416 The Unstoppable Kitahara Consortium
July 2, 1991, 9 am.
The consequences of the Great Recession are still continuing. Not long ago, four of the largest credit unions declared bankruptcy. Three of them, Cosmo Credit Union and Nishin Group, located in Tokyo, were acquired by Tokyo Kyoto Bank. Osaka, known as the All-Japan Credit Union, The No. 1 credit combination, the Kitsugumi team, was unknowingly eaten by the Kitahara Divine Wolf Credit Bank.
The credit portfolio that had been active for decades suddenly became a thing of the past, a symbol that lives in people's memory, which is sad.
After going through various changes, a large number of customers finally got out of the headless state and began to look for new banks to cooperate with, and a large part of them joined the Kitahara Shenlang Credit Bank.
This also leads to a problem that people have to pay attention to.
As a credit bank, Kitabahara Shenlang is not yet qualified to open branches in six major metropolitan areas at the same time. Its subsidiaries are generally in remote counties and cities. Its main business areas are Osaka and Kyoto, and it has not even officially settled in Tokyo.
In this way, it will be very inconvenient for those big customers. Do they have to go to Kyoto and Osaka every time to handle business?
The call for the transformation of Kitabahara Shenlang into a bank spread among the public, and leaders of many county and city governments also received many anonymous or signed letters, asking them to apply to Congress.
In this atmosphere, a group of politicians, led by the current governor of Kyoto Prefecture, Masato Chino, who returned to politics, finally submitted an application to the Diet on the same day.
I hope that Congress will approve the transformation of Kitagahara Shinlang Credit Bank into a bank.
Kitahara Foundation!
The leaders of the six major consortiums realized this the moment the application was submitted.
Kitahara Shoji was established not long ago, and a series of Kitahara clan companies that have entered various industries are also booming. Although those industries are leftovers that the six major consortiums have not participated in, Kitahara Sosuke's ambitions have also been exposed.
He wanted to create a new consortium.
Now he has connections, capital, industry and resources, and has many prerequisites. The only thing missing is a financial bank that can connect them all.
Now, banks need to be there too.
We must not let Kitahara Sosuke succeed!
Sitting at home, Ichiro Katita's face was ashen. As the Supreme Emperor of Sumitomo, he had controlled Sumitomo Bank for decades and was one of the top three figures in the Sumitomo Foundation, but he suffered successive defeats at the hands of this young man.
He was holding back a sense of resentment in his heart.
Wearing a red evening gown and being dressed up carefully, Jida Yuanzi stood in front of the full-length mirror and changed her posture. She noticed her father's strange attitude. She turned around and saw the live broadcast of the Congress.
"Applying for approval of the establishment of Kitahara Bank? Are Chino Masato and the others crazy? How could this be approved?"
As a vested interest in Japan's upper class society.
Jitian Yuanzi has had no worries about food and clothing since she was a child, and has enjoyed endless prosperity and wealth. She knows that all this is achieved by relying on the monopoly of the consortium.
Japan now has six Big Macs, which is enough, and there is no need to add another one.
This way, everyone will have less food on their plate.
By doing this, Kitahara Sosuke is tantamount to starting a war with six parties at the same time!
"Passed? Of course it's impossible to pass. He just wanted to test our attitude." Ichiro Kita took a deep breath to calm down his unhappy mood, "Kitahara Bank, haha, if he wants to go further, at least he can get More than half of us support him, and among the six major consortiums, how many are willing to support him? At most, Mitsubishi is the only one. That’s because of Tosan’s relationship. As for Sanwa and Fuji, they are just temporary allies."
"Then he did this?" Jitian Yuanzi was even more confused. When she was at Moonlight Village, she had seen that young man, who was a few years younger than herself. He was indeed very outstanding, but she only regarded him as a young and promising banker. It’s just home, I didn’t think too much about it.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, he has already reached a level similar to his father!
She couldn't see through this person anymore.
"Sonoko, if you want to ask me for something, what will you do so that I can satisfy your request as much as possible?" Ichiro Kita suddenly asked.
Jitian Yuanzi was stunned for a moment and blurted out: "Of course I will first make a request to you, Father, that cannot be fulfilled. After you reject me, I will tell you my true wish. You will feel a little guilty for rejecting me. The chances of agreeing will be much greater.”
This is a very practical little trick.
Especially in the relationship between men and women, if you first ask the other party for an unlikely thing, and then settle for the next best thing, you will most likely be satisfied.
on tv.
As expected, Chino Masato’s application was rejected.
No matter in terms of qualifications or wealth, Kitahara Sosuke has not yet reached the level of the six major financial groups, so his idea of reaching the sky in one step is naturally impossible to realize.
Chino Masato was not discouraged and just retreated, as if nothing had happened.
He didn't think it would be successful from the beginning. This was just to help Kitahara Sosuke go through the process.
When things can no longer be concealed, making a strong announcement is also a way to frighten the enemy.
After Kitahara Sosuke has reached this point, he is barely qualified to sit at the table with those big guys. At this time, there is no point in being conciliatory. He wants them to regard him as a real competitor.
We also need to send a signal to the people and everyone that the Beiyuan Consortium is rising, forming, and rising!
Give them a sense of crisis and expectation.
While Chino Masato retreated, Hashimoto Ryutaro, the Minister of Finance and the Director of the Department of Finance, stepped forward and took out a new application form.
"Application form for business franchise plan?" Ichiro Kita opened his eyes wide.
Is this Kitahara Sosuke's last move?
There is a long list of industries in the plan, many of which are not involved or directly ignored by the six major consortiums. After all, everyone is fascinated by the financial and real estate stock markets. Who cares about some small industries with an annual output value of only tens of billions?
But with the lessons learned from the new three pillar industries, no one dares to ignore the new industries that Kitahara Sosuke values now. Many clubs even simply changed their internal instructions to do whatever the Kitahara clan clubs do. !
Now Sosuke Kitahara wants to expand into a new industry, which is most likely the core industry chain of what he calls the Kitahara Consortium. Who dares to ignore it?
Only cooperate with the government?
Monopolize these industries?
Judging from the industry names, all these industries together are not as huge as the financial industry, but now who dares to let Kitahara Sosuke play like this?
The problem is that Ichiro Kita didn't get any similar news at all!
For example, he had some rumors about the bank's transformation approval, and after internal deliberation, he naturally vetoed it with one vote.
And now, he didn't know anything about it.
It was proposed when the situation was completely unclear. There is a high probability that it has been approved internally?
really.
Congress approved it!
"The Prime Minister's Cabinet! He actually did not hesitate to use the power of the Prime Minister's Cabinet to approve this!" Ichiro Kita now understands.
Tokyo Mutual Bank's mess, as well as Kitahara Sosuke's profit concession, and wiping the butt of their credit portfolio some time ago, these are not selfless contributions.
He wants to use these things in exchange for the passage of this plan!
The final result was that the government chose to bypass the six major consortiums and show favor to Kitahara Sosuke!
This moment.
Ichiro Jida suddenly felt that something was sprouting, and he could no longer stop it.
He reached for the landline phone tremblingly, preparing to call Hamanaka Taio.
