Chapter 483: The New Bank President
Drinking doesn’t drive, driving doesn’t drink. Masayoshi Kishimoto had been drinking, so he couldn’t drive himself, so he had someone call himself a cab.
In Japan, taking a cab did not mean not having much money. Driving a car, on the contrary, means little money. This is the opposite of the situation in mainland China, where taking a cab is not as good as driving a car.
After Masayoshi Kishimoto finished with the president of the Mitsuba Bank and the special agent at the Kiraku High-end Japanese Cuisine Pavilion, he did not choose to go straight home, but went to the Firefly Club in Ginza, Chuo-ku.
There was a man named Inoue Uji waiting for himself over there. This one person who had taken the initiative to recommend himself was indeed talented.
The plan to acquire the Mitsuba Bank was the first thing the other man had proposed to him. Not only that, but the other party had also handed over a copy of the acquisition plan.
After Masayoshi Kishimoto had personally read the acquisition plan of the Sanba Bank, he found it interesting and started to carry out such a project.
Before proceeding, he had also investigated the background and details of this one man, Inoue Kamiji. The results of the investigation brought him even more interest.
Inoue and Kobayashi Kiyoshi were not only classmates at the University of Tokyo majoring in finance, but also entered the Bank of Mitsubishi together and stayed at the headquarters.
At the beginning, the two also competed for the post of section chief. In the end, Kobayashi Kiyoshi won. Later, Kobayashi Kiyoshi was imprisoned for one year for assaulting his superior because he was not satisfied with the false accusation.
As a result, Inoue Kamiji took over Kobayashi Kiyoshi’s position as section chief. For so many years, he hadn’t moved above the position of section chief.
According to him, he didn’t have enough connections, enough seniority, etc. Within the Bank of Mitsubishi, there was still a system of seniority.
On the one hand, he was dissatisfied with this outdated promotion system and couldn’t wait, and on the other hand, mainly, he still wanted to compete with Kobayashi Kiyoshi. The two had been rivals since their college days.
After all, within these few years, the nirvana reborn Kobayashi Kiyoshi had become the president of Hard Gold Capital, fully capable of mobilizing hundreds of billions of yen.
In Marunouchi, Chiyoda-ku, the economic hub of Japan, he was also considered to be a pretty famous person. Inoue Kamiji looked back at himself and felt that he personally had accomplished nothing in the past few years.
He took the initiative to find Masayoshi Kishimoto privately, and not only did he introduce himself, but he also submitted a detailed acquisition plan for the Mitsuba Bank.
When he arrived at the place, Masayoshi Kishimoto paid the fare and got out of the cab again. He breezed through the doors of the Firefly Club.
Upon his appearance, Fujie Nao immediately drops everything else to perform a greeting. It wasn’t that the other female publicists here didn’t want to approach Masayoshi Kishimoto, but they didn’t dare.
They all knew in their hearts that the other party was not only the gold master behind mom-san Fujie Nao, a hard gold plutocrat, but also the man they were in love with.
This initiative to hook up with Masayoshi Kishimoto, is tantamount to directly and openly with Fujie Nao called the board and war. Even in the dark, it was the same.
All walks of life have established rules in Japan. If you win, there’s no need to say anything, it’s just new people laughing and old people crying. If you lose, the best result is that you won’t be able to work in this business. As for the worst outcome, once a woman hates someone, she will still be ruthless.
Fujie Nao took up one of Masayoshi Kishimoto’s arms and said with a smile like a flower, “That person has been waiting for you for a long time.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto saw the solitary Inoue Kamiji sitting alone at the table reserved for himself, waiting.
He smiled slightly and said, “You didn’t arrange some girls for him either?”
“Arranged. He doesn’t want any company.” Fujie Nao said truthfully.
“And from what you’ve seen of him?” Masayoshi Kishimoto asked with a sense of purpose.
“Not only is my place a paper-drunken gold-selling ghetto, but it’s also full of beautiful women. When ordinary men arrive at my place, they are bound to be dazzled.
Since this one man won’t be moved, his ambition is naturally not small.” Fujie Naoe said as she harmonized her personal observations.
“You are getting better at reading people.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said approvingly.
“Thank you for the compliment.” Fujie Naoe’s smile grew wider and wider as she said.
When Inuyasha Kamiji saw Kishimoto Masayoshi, he took the initiative and stood up. With a serious expression, he bowed forty-five degrees towards the other party.
Masayoshi Kishimoto, accompanied by Nao Fujie, sat down together and said, “Don’t be so formal. This is supposed to be a place for us men to relax.”
Inuyasha Kamiji sat down slowly, erected his back, and placed his hands on the tops of his left and right thighs, “It’s not so bad at this time.”
“Both the president and the special agent of the Mitsuba Bank have accepted the offer of a golden parachute.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said bluntly.
Inoue Kamiji squared his shoulders and said, “In that case, the acquisition of the Mitsuba Bank by the Hard Gold Group is a foregone conclusion.”
“You took the initiative to propose this acquisition plan to me. You deserve a share of the credit. Although you are not a member of my Hard Gold Group, a return gift is inevitable. Speak of your requirements.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said seriously.
“I hope that you can allow me to take up the position of president of the New Mitsuba Bank.” Inuyasha Kamiji lowered his head and requested in a serious manner.
Masayoshi Kishimoto understood that this was his truest purpose. He smiled and said, “You’re wrong, it’s not the New Mitsuba Bank, but it needs to be renamed, the Hard Gold Bank.”
Fujie Nao suddenly interjected, “Congratulations.”
Masayoshi Kishimoto gently patted the back of one of her hands and said, “Then why don’t you go prepare a champagne tower for me to celebrate?”
“Yes, I’ll go prepare it for you right away.” Fujie Nao was genuinely happy for him, after all, he had another development on top of his career.
After she finished speaking, she let go of her hand and stood up to order the champagne tower to be prepared.
“If you can leave the Hard Gold Bank in my hands, I’ll make sure you triple your current turnover within a year.” Inuyasha Kamiji was not just making up his mind, but had already done a thorough calculation.
Kishimoto Masayoshi crossed his arms in front of his chest and asked with interest, “Aren’t you worried that I will merge Hard Gold Bank and Hard Gold Capital?”
“Please make sure you don’t go about it like that. I will definitely be able to run Hard Gold Bank as the best commercial bank in Japan.” Inoue Kamiji swore with conviction.
“Better than the Bank of Mitsubishi?” Masayoshi Kishimoto asked casually.
“Yes.” Inoue Uenji said with conviction.
Masayoshi Kishimoto liked people with vigor and ambition. He said without haste, “The problem with the Mitsuba Bank is that it is too conservative above management.
From the time of its establishment until now, it has always made a profit, but the amount is small, and it hasn’t had any significant growth.
I don’t like its overly conservative business strategy. You are a man who is enterprising and exactly what I need in a new bank president.”
