My 1999

"Mr. Xu, if you are worried that the transaction of Seibu Group will be blocked by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, the Fukuda family can provide some help." Fukuda Yande said.

Xu Liang believed him.

Although Fukuda Yande is a branch of the Fukuda family, they are cousins ​​within three generations of the main branch that has produced a prime minister and has a strong influence in the parliament.

Now the head of the Fukuda family has a strong voice to be elected prime minister next year.

Once successful, the Fukuda family will undoubtedly stand at the top of the Japanese political arena.

With them, Seibu Group's acquisition hopes are great.

Xu Liang took a sip of the tea on the table.

"I heard that Uncle Kangfu is expected to be elected prime minister in next year's general election?"

Fukuda Yande showed a proud smile on his face.

"The Fukuda family is deeply rooted in the parliament, and the Liberal Democratic Party fully supports Kangfu. There will be no surprises in next year's general election. The 91st Prime Minister of Japan will definitely be Kangfu."

Xu Liang recalled the memories in his mind.

He could not remember many Japanese prime ministers, except for the ghost-worshipping Koizumi Beast and the eunuch An who was shot down.

"Then I will congratulate my father-in-law in advance."

Fukuda Yan Temple smiled proudly, "The Fukuda family will hold a dinner in a few days. The guests will be high-level Japanese political and business leaders. I will take you there then?"

"Okay."

Although he did not want to go, he was in the game and some welcoming and sending off were inevitable.

Fukuda Yansi: "Mr. Xu, are you really not going to acquire Seibu Group?"

"I really don't have this plan."

"What about the rumors outside...?"

"Mr. Li Zhaoji of Henderson Land Development and Mr. Zheng Yutong of New World in Hong Kong are very interested in Seibu Department Store and Prince Hotel under Seibu Group. They know that I am acquiring Muji and Yoshinoya under Seibu.

So they proposed that the three of us form a merger and acquisition group to negotiate with Seibu's creditors.

I agreed.

After receiving the news, the creditors of Seibu Group deliberately released the news of my acquisition of Seibu Group in order to attract more acquirers."

Although Xu Liang just learned the news, he quickly guessed the whole story.

As he became more and more successful in the field of financial investment, he also faced the same situation as Buffett. Whatever company he invested in would attract the attention of global investment companies.

Then a large number of followers appeared.

The global mainstream ETF index fund supplier iShares also established a 'Hanhua Qinglong Index Fund', which specializes in investing in the heavily-weighted stocks under the Hanhua Qinglong private equity fund.

I heard that it is selling very well, and the size of the entire fund has reached more than one billion US dollars.

Let those middle-class people who are drooling over the super high profits of Qinglong Private Equity Fund, but are unable to meet the investment threshold and are blocked from the outside, have a channel to share profits.

If Xu Liang really admits that he wants to acquire Seibu, it is possible that several powerful competitors will emerge.

"So that's how it is." Fukuda Yansi continued, "Mr. Xu, with your business and financial talents, you can completely turn around the predicament of Seibu Group."

"Do you want to persuade me to acquire Seibu Group?"

"Yes."

"Did someone ask you to do this?"

No matter what you do in this world, there is a purpose.

Especially when it comes to such a complicated matter as Seibu Group.

Looking at his deep eyes, Fukuda Yansi knew that he could not hide it.

After a slight hesitation, he did not hide it anymore.

"The bankruptcy of Seibu Group is the largest bankruptcy case in Japan's history, affecting hundreds of thousands of families and the lives of millions of people.

If this matter can be resolved smoothly, we can get the support of Seibu Group employees and its creditors, which will be of great help to Kangfu in winning the election next year."

Xu Liang understood, but just drank tea quietly without speaking.

We are all adults. If you want me to help, you have to show the benefits.

The father and son of Fukuda looked at each other and exchanged glances.

"Mr. Xu, if you have any concerns or requests, you can raise them." Fukuda Hideo asked.

"This matter is too sudden. I don't have any requirements now. Think about it for a few days."

"That's good, but I hope you can give us an accurate reply before leaving Japan."

"No problem."

After talking about the business, the atmosphere relaxed.

After dinner at Fukuda's house, Xu Liang took Fukuda Xinmei away.

When he returned home, Xu Wensen had fallen asleep in his mother's arms, with a subtle snoring and a quiet little face, which was lovable.

Xu Liang kissed his forehead gently and handed him to the childcare teacher.

Looking at Fukuda Xinmei, who exuded a maternal aura, and Nagasawa Masami, who was becoming more and more mature and feminine.

Xu Liang directly pulled the two to the bedroom.

The young man and the red powder were romantic, and the love lasted all night in the brocade tent. The excited soul did not know to come to the hotel, and the crazy soul seemed to have entered the fairy boat.

The blushing face was stained with rouge sweat, and the white face was stained with powder and rooster oil. I couldn't sleep, and the cocks sang in the fifth watch of autumn.

One side was a long-lost body, and the other side was a flower master.

The general met a good talent, and the chess met a match.

The battle lasted until nearly dawn before it ended.

Xu Liang fell asleep with satisfaction hugging the two beauties who were only breathing.

...

The next day, Xu Liang practiced boxing and fitness step by step.

After being moisturized, Fukuda Xinmei and Nagasawa Masami were radiant, and even their smiles were much sweeter than before.

The eyes looking at Boss Xu were all drawn.

He invited the two girls to sit over and put his arms around their slender waists.

"I heard Hideo Fukunaga say that 40 million copies of "Bleach" have been sold?"

A bright smile appeared on Fukuda Xinmei's face.

"'Death' is Xu Jun's idea, and of course it is popular."

From 2001 to now, "The God of Death" has been drawn for five years and 38 volumes have been published.

"I just came up with the idea, and you are the one who really realized it. Paint it well. This is a testimony of the love between the two of us."

Futian Xinmei nodded firmly.

In addition to what Xu Liang said, "The God of Death" is a testimony of the love between two people. More importantly, she also likes to draw comics.

I really enjoy the feeling of characters and stories taking shape in my own writing, and witnessing their joys and sorrows.

Nagasawa Masami couldn't help but feel envious of the woman opposite.

Even not counting the huge assets given by Xu Liang, her annual comic income is as high as 500 million yen [24 million Chinese dollars]. Compared with her salary for filming film and television dramas, even with the support of Hongmeng Japan subsidiary, The pay for one episode is only 2.4 million yen [100,000 Chinese coins].

After paying taxes, I get less than 30 million yen in my hands at the end of the year.

Although it is much better than before.

But compared to Futian Xinmei, it is far behind.

Unhappiness and dissatisfaction are contrasted.

"Yami, did you put the 30 million I gave you in the bank?"

Nagasawa Masami nodded quickly.

"I don't know much about investing and I don't know much about the market, so I have no choice but to keep my money in the bank."

Japan, which has developed for more than half a century, is not China. All walks of life are basically fixed. No matter what you do, there are industry giants occupying the main track.

It is completely different from China, where there are many opportunities for heroes to join forces.

Even in the real estate industry, due to the real estate bubble in 1992, there is basically no investment except for some urgent needs and excellent locations.

For a while, Xu Liang couldn't think of any investment channels suitable for Nagasawa Masami.

"Given the current situation in Japan, depositing money in a bank is indeed a good choice."

Nagasawa Masami was a little disappointed. She thought Xu Liang would guide her in investing. After all, he was a world-class financial tycoon.

While he was chatting with his wife and concubines, his cell phone rang.

Picked it up and pressed the answer button, and Li Jinling's voice came.

"Mr. Xu, it's time, we should set off."

"I know, I'll be down soon."

Hang up the phone.

"I have something to go out for. You all should be busy with your own affairs. If you have any questions, call me."

The two women nodded quickly.

Xu Liang changed his clothes, went out and got in the car, and soon arrived at the Pacific Building.

This landmark building in Shibuya District is where the Hanhua Dongying Office and the headquarters of Hongmeng Japan and Korea are located.

When Xu Liang arrived here, Li Zhaoji and Zheng Yutong were already waiting for him in the office.

"Uncle Fourth, Uncle Tong, I've been waiting for a long time."

"Xu Sheng, you are finally here." Li Zhaoji smiled.

"With you here, we have a backbone, otherwise we two old guys can't do anything on their territory."

"You two look up to me so much."

The two have been in the business world for decades and have seen nothing.

Their connections in Japan's political and business circles may not be any worse than Xu Liang's.

"Please take a seat."

"please."

The three of them sat down separately as guest and host, and the accompanying secretaries also sat down next to them.

"Uncle Fourth and Uncle Tong, you have been in Tokyo for such a long time, and I think you have had contact with Ruihui Financial. What did they say?"

Zheng Yutong was okay, and Li Zhaoji sighed heavily.

"You are really right. Mizui Financial insists not to sell the Prince Hotel alone. If it wants to acquire it, it can only acquire the tourism and leisure assets of the Seibu Group as well.

The hole is too big. "

In fact, what really puts him in trouble is not that the assets are too large, but that the liabilities are too high and revenue is sluggish.

If the revenue is good and the income can cover expenses and debts, he will not be so embarrassed.

"Uncle Tong, what about you?"

Zheng Yutong sighed, "It's not going well on my end either.

Although Mizuho Financial Group agreed to sell Seibu Department Store, the debt attached to Seibu Department Store reached US$9.7 billion.

Seibu Department Store's current revenue has dropped by 8.2% compared with when it was first merged in 2003, and currently remains at around US$7.8 billion, but the net profit of its main industry is only US$540 million.

Seibu Department Store now has five debt maturities totaling $2.95 billion.

If I want to take over, I have to repay the money first.

If it's just a matter of money, I can get it out if I squeeze it.

The key is that Seibu Department Store's current revenue and profits are difficult to meet the requirements for repaying the remaining debt.

So I plan to talk to Ruihui Financial Group. If they agree to debt restructuring, I can also consider an acquisition. If they say no, I give up. "

"Uncle Tong, Fourth Uncle, have you heard about Japan's plan to acquire Seibu Group?"

The two looked at each other. They had heard too much in the past two days.

I couldn't help but wonder.

"Xu Sheng, you really plan to acquire Seibu. If so, the two of us will withdraw." Zheng Yutong said.

Xu Liang smiled and shook his head, "Don't get me wrong, I have no intention of acquiring Seibu.

The reason why such rumors came out was just a gimmick created by Ruihui Financial Group while we were organizing a group acquisition.

Outsiders cannot figure out the reality of our combined mergers and acquisitions, and there is a high probability that they will be attracted. "

"So that's what happened. I thought you were really planning to acquire Seibu Group." Li Zhaoji said.

"Although I won't participate in the acquisition, if I'm in Japan, it will increase the difficulty of the two negotiations.

Even if I don't show up, as long as there are rumors outside, Ruihui Financial Group will always have a way out to get better conditions for itself.

So if you have any trump cards, just take them out as soon as possible. The later you do it, the worse the effect will be."

"Don't worry, we will fight quickly. But if you do this, you may not be able to join us anymore." Zheng Yutong said.

It was originally rumored that Xu Liang wanted to acquire Seibu as a whole.

Now that he is participating with them, the institutions that were originally skeptical will also confirm their guesses.

You said you are a merger and acquisition group.

But who knows if they have reached an agreement in secret to acquire separately first and then sell the assets to Xu Liang after success?

This kind of cooperation has been done by Li Zhaoji and Xu Liang more than once.

The equity acquisition of Standard Chartered, the equity acquisition of Bandai, and even the early Master Kong are all like this.
