My 1999

Of course, this is also related to Xu Liang's arrangement.

As the acquisition entity of Seibu, it is not Hanhua, Hongyan or any company under Xu's.

Xu Liang first established a 'Ruihua Investment Company' under the 'Xu's No. 9 Family Trust Fund'.

'Xu's No. 9 Family Trust Fund' holds 5% of the shares of 'Ruihua Investment Company' and has undisputed management rights.

Fukuda Xinmei holds 95% of the shares of 'Ruihua Investment Company', but only has the right to dividends.

At the same time, 'Xu's No. 9 Family Trust Fund' signed an agreement with Fukuda Xinmei.

The equity of Ruihua Investment can only be inherited by the blood descendants of both parties and cannot be resold to any third party.

After submitting this agreement to the three top law firms in China, the United States and Japan for notarization, and signing a confidentiality agreement with the three parties.

Ruihui Financial Group and Ruihua Investment held a press conference at the same time to announce the change of ownership of Seibu Group.

This news also quickly caused a sensation throughout Japan and triggered discussions in the global business community.

After all, Seibu Group was too glorious at its peak.

It is a world business giant that is no less than WorldCom, Enron and Vivendi.

His boss Yoshiaki Tsutsumi once became the world's richest man.

Although it is now in decline and one-third of its assets have been sold.

But the core is still there.

As the saying goes, a tiger dies but its frame remains.

The reports that were widely reported soon uncovered the Fukuda family behind Ruihua Investment.

After all, the president of Ruihua Investment is clearly written as "Fukuda Xinmei", and her social relations are easy to find out.

As one of the five major political families in Japan, the Fukuda family is powerful. Although it has not made much achievements in the business world, the operation of Seibu Group is too bad.

It basically does not require any money to acquire it, as long as it assumes its debts.

Under the guidance of Xu Liang's public opinion.

Bing News soon reported Fukuda Hideo's "Fukuda Wealth Management Co., Ltd.".

As the fastest-growing wealth management company in recent years, Fukuda Hideo is also a newcomer in the Japanese financial circle.

Fukuda Wealth's profits are also quite substantial.

For a time, the news that 'the Fukuda family hopes to make financial profits, reduce the debt of the Seibu Group, and restore the normal operation of the company' was all over the place.

Of course, some media and news reported that the real acquirer of the Seibu Group's merger and acquisition case was Xu Liang.

But because there was no detailed evidence, and Bing News sent out news through various channels.

For a time, no one could tell the truth from the false.

"I... do I really have to inspect the Seibu Group?"

Fukuda Xinmei's pretty face was nervous.

She had never experienced such a thing.

"You don't want to go?"

"Yeah."

"If you don't want to go, then don't go."

"Is it really okay?"

"Of course. You are my most beloved woman, and I don't want to embarrass you."

Looking at his 'sincere and loving' eyes, Fukuda Xinmei gritted her teeth.

"I'll go."

"Xinmei, don't force yourself..."

Shaking her head firmly, Fukuda Xinmei's expression became firm.

"I also hope to help Xu Jun solve his problems and do my part for the Xu family."

"Have you really decided?"

"Yes."

"Okay, but you don't have to worry too much. Even if you make a mistake, I'm still here. So go for it boldly. I believe in you."

Fukuda Xinmei nodded vigorously.

After Xu Liang comforted her, Fukuda Xinmei left.

"Boss Xu, is it really appropriate to let Madam come forward?"

"The wolf is coming is a good story.

Now Xu is the wolf.

The more people shout, the less sensitive they will be. Even if the wolf really comes, the resistance they will encounter will be minimal."

Li Jinling nodded slightly, "I'm afraid those old-timers in Seibu's business will look down on Madam after seeing her performance."

"They will definitely look down on her. If I see a delicate, beautiful woman in her twenties sitting in the CEO position, I won't take her seriously.

But it doesn't matter.

In the next year, we will mainly find out the financial, personnel, and business situations of Seibu.

Only after we have a clear idea can we reform management and adjust personnel.

If they look down on Xinmei and relax their vigilance, it will be convenient for us to investigate."

Li Jinling nodded.

Xu Liang: "Have all the transferred personnel been arranged?"

Li Jinling handed over a document.

"Everything has been arranged.

Hanhua Tokyo Office's Financial Director Zhao Hui and Human Resources Director Takahashi Yuji have been transferred to Seibu Group to be responsible for finance and personnel.

Taihua Group Business Management Company's Deputy Financial Director Liu Zhiyu and Deputy Human Resources Director Qiao Ran have been transferred to Seibu Department Store to be responsible for finance and personnel.

Taihua Hotel Group's Deputy Financial Director Zhang Liang and Deputy Human Resources Director Sun Shao have been transferred to Seibu Prince Hotel Group to be responsible for finance and personnel..."

Xu Liang can ignore the management of Seibu Group's subsidiaries, but that doesn't mean he won't do anything.

With the two key departments of finance and personnel in his hands, he doesn't have to worry about them turning the tables.

"In addition, the security of all subsidiaries of Seibu Group will be fully taken over by Red Shield Security."

Xu Liang nodded.

"Where will the meeting be scheduled for the day after tomorrow?"

"I heard that the golf course in Karuizawa is good, so let's schedule it there. Move it to the afternoon. It's autumn now, and it will be warmer in the afternoon."

"Okay."

Although he did not intend to go out to inspect the major subsidiaries of Seibu Group, he wanted to announce his existence to the core executives, presidents and presidents of each subsidiary of Seibu. These people all have their own information channels and must know who the real acquirer is.

——

"What is the president thinking?"

Goto Takashi: "I'm thinking about all the news I know about Xu Jun." He shook his head, "I still can't believe that the famous 'Xu Liang' will become the president of Seibu."

Shirayama Susumu: "I can't believe it now. Although Seibu's assets are huge, except for Seibu Department Store, they have little relevance to Xu's major companies.

Seibu Department Store, led by that idiot Shigeaki Wada, has been in decline again.

Coupled with the huge debt, if I were Xu Liang, I would never acquire such Seibu. "

"Yes. But after all, we are not Xu Liang, and we can't guess what the other person is thinking."

Bai Shanjin suddenly smiled and said: "Maybe he is interested in Prince Hotel. After all, Taihua has hotel business."

"Maybe. It has become a fait accompli, so there is no need to think too much. ...The key is what will the other party do after taking over the Seibu Group?" Goto Takashi said.

Bai Shanjin fell silent.

After a while.

“I heard that Xu Liang’s family office ‘Hongyan’ is also engaged in leveraged buyouts in addition to investment business.

Delong, one of the largest industrial groups in China, the NBA Warriors, Marvel, one of the two major comic book giants, Manchester United of the Premier League, and the American oil giant Unocal are all under his control.

Now these companies are basically developing well and can even be called excellent.

It is certain that Xu Liang is not only a financial genius, but also a management elite with amazing strategic vision.

He leads Seibu and is at least 70% sure to lead the Seibu Group out of the current quagmire. "

"Is it only 70%?" Goto Takashi laughed.

"Seventy percent is already very high. If it were anyone else, even Masayoshi Son, he wouldn't be able to reach even half."

"I didn't expect you to think so highly of him."

"It's not that I think highly of him, it's that his achievements are too dazzling. In just seven years, he has transformed from a lowly untouchable to the second richest person in the Forbes Global Rich List.

Even if he hadn't established a legacy trust early to carve out some companies, it would have been a sure thing to beat Bill Gates to the top a year in advance.

Xu Jun's talent no longer needs others to comment.

Respect and worship are what ordinary people should do. "

Bai Shanjin used honorifics unconsciously.

Goto Takashi sighed: "After all, we are descendants of the Han and Tang Dynasties who have been influenced by thousands of years of history and culture. There are amazing geniuses in any era."

Bai Shanjin nodded in agreement.

After a long time, wait for your thoughts to calm down.

"I wonder how Mr. Xu will reform our Seibu Railway?"

Goto Takashi said with a smile: "The Seibu Railway we are responsible for managing has the highest net profit margin and number of passengers per kilometer among the sixteen major private railways in Japan.

Moreover, there is not much room for development of subways and railways, and there is basically no room for reform. "

Dashou private railway means large private railway company in Japan.

Shirayama Susumu: "It would be great if Xu Jun could support us in launching mergers and acquisitions. There are still fifteen large private railway companies. No matter which one we acquire, it will bring Seibu Railway's revenue to a higher level."

"Just looking at Seibu Group's current huge debt, we know that it is basically impossible."

Shirayama Susumu: "I heard that Xu Jun received tens of billions of dollars in return after defeating Soros and Quantum Fund. It may not be impossible if he raises funds from Seibu."

Goto Takashi nodded thoughtfully.

While the two were chatting, the scenery outside the car window continued to pass by, gradually changing from majestic high-rise buildings to lush countryside with green trees and red flowers and willows.

When the horizon becomes undulating and the flowers, plants and trees become more and more lush.

Nestled in the beautiful scenery, a simple-looking connected villa area appears in front of you.

Royal Prince Karuizawa Resort Hotel.

It is a five-star resort hotel built on the basis of the aristocratic holiday villas in the Meiji era. It has nearly 70 independent villas and more than 600 rooms.

The Karuizawa Resort with attached hotel has an astonishing area of ​​3 million square meters.

Equivalent to 4.2 times the size of the Forbidden City.

In addition to hotels, there are also golf courses, tennis courts, aquariums and other complex business formats.

Of course, the most outstanding thing is the excellent mountain scenery here.

As the president and president of Seibu Railway, this is not the first time for Takashi Goto and Susumu Hakusan to come here.

I walked into the hotel lobby with ease and soon saw an acquaintance here.

"Goto-kun, Hakusan-kun."

He looked at the middle-aged man who was short and thin, with three-quarter length hair, walking quickly towards here.

Goto Takashi and Hakusan frowned without trace.

Tsutsumi Yoshiaki's motto "I would rather use slaves than talented people" is well known to everyone.

As long as you are loyal enough, it doesn't matter if you are not strong enough.

Therefore, there are many mediocre people within the Seibu Group who want to flatter others.

But if a company can grow and develop, there will always be a lot of talent.

Goto Takashi and Shirayama Susumu consider themselves to be talents, so they hate people within the group who reach high positions by flattering others.

Just like ancient civil servants hated eunuchs, Qingliu hated treacherous ministers.

Shirayama Jin snorted coldly and turned his head away.

He ignored them all.

As the chairman of Seibu Railway, Goto Takashi's personality is not as noble as his old partner.

"Wada-kun came so early?"

As if he didn't see Shirayama Jin's cold eyes, Wada Shigeaki still smiled.

"I just came a few minutes ago. Goto-kun, Shirayama-kun, since we meet, let's go in together?"

"Hasn't Wada-kun always been inseparable from Uemura-kun? Why didn't you go together this time?"

"Don't you two know?"

"Know what?" Goto Takashi asked.

"Uemura Kenichi has been directly dismissed."

Goto Takashi and Shirayama Jin were shocked, and they looked at each other's eyes.

As the president of Sogo Seibu Department Store, Uemura Kenichi is undoubtedly the top executive in the entire Seibu Group.

He single-handedly led Seibu Department Store's acquisition of Sogo.

Although the real leader behind this matter was Yoshiaki Tsutsumi, it was indeed Uemura Kenichi who operated the market.
