Chapter 597: Common Topics
Masayoshi Kishimoto personally sent Iwasaki Maki away before handing over the equity transfer contract to the hands of Yamada Mirai, and said, “First, you transfer it to Takahashi Kazuya for me, and let him handle the rest of the matters.
Second, you use the name of the chairman’s secretary’s office to issue an internal notice. Although Hard Gold Media’s shareholding has changed, none of the changes or adjustments will be made in terms of personnel.”
“Understood.” Yamada Mirai said after listening to what he said verbatim.
“That’s it. All of you go in and eat whatever you want, and you’ll be reimbursed at public expense.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said bluntly.
After he finished speaking, he walked straight ahead without looking back. Behind him, a group of people were sending him off with a forty-five degree bow towards him.
Masayoshi Kishimoto’s mood was superb, finally allowing him to get rid of this constraint that the Iwasaki family had placed on him. There was no longer a second person within the Hard Gold Group who could restrain him.
Masayoshi Kishimoto arrived at Natsui Makoto’s place, and still habitually walked into the nursery to see his pair of adorable children.
Natsui Makoto had not expected him to come. Before this, he had personally called her to explain that he had something important to do at noon and would not be coming.
Now, she was seeing Masayoshi Kishimoto again, only half an hour later than inside on weekdays. She followed him in and said, “Have you eaten? If not, I’ll go and cook for you. If you’re hungry, then have some cookies to pad your stomach first.”
Justice Kishimoto laughed and said, “I’m not a little kid, I’ve already eaten. You don’t just care about me, have you eaten yet?”
“I’ve eaten too. You called first and said you weren’t coming over yourself, so I just dealt with it and ate an instant noodle.” Natsui Makoto told the truth.
“You can’t just deal with it, you still need to keep up with your nutrition, don’t be shy about spending money. Just make a call to the fancy restaurant and have them send someone over.
If you don’t think of yourself, you still need to think of the children. They need you very much.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with a slight smile.
“A financial crisis has broken out in Argentina.” Natsui Makoto suddenly blurted out.
“What does the outbreak of a financial crisis in Argentina have to do with you?” Masayoshi Kishimoto calmly said as he stood next to the crib while looking at his children.
“It’s true that it’s not directly related to me, but I want to find something that I can have in common with you.” Natsui Makoto said seriously.
“The common topic between us is them. And why would you want to go farther than that?” Masayoshi Kishimoto’s right index finger was pointing at his own pair of children and said.
“The words are true. However, I still want to be able to talk to you about some other in-depth topics.” Natsui Makoto had always felt that her man was too outstanding, while she herself was too ordinary. Inside, she longed to be able to catch up with the other party’s pace towards the front.
“Then, do you have any personal opinions on the financial crisis that broke out in Argentina?” Masayoshi Kishimoto, whose attention was still on his children, asked gently.
“Personal opinion? Will this financial crisis that broke out in Argentina be like the financial crisis that first broke out in Thailand in 1997.
It first started in one country and then gradually spread to multiple countries. It has the potential to brew into a South American financial storm.” Natsui Makoto said according to her own understanding.
“Makes sense.” Masaru Kishimoto coped.
“You’re clearly coping with me!” Natsui Makoto saw that he was coping with himself and said.
“No.” Masayoshi Kishimoto denied it.
“Still lying to me. Don’t I know you?” Natsui Makoto had been with him for so long that they even had their child. She naturally knew something about him Dao.
Only then did Masayoshi Kishimoto turn his attention from the children to her saying, “What, are you upset?”
“That’s right, I’m upset. I see you’re quite happy today instead.” Natsui Makoto felt the joy coming from him and said.
“Thanks to the outbreak of this financial crisis in Argentina. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to smoothly recover a portion of Hard Gold Media’s shares from her people.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said joyfully.
Natsui Makoto didn’t understand and said, “The outbreak of a financial crisis in Argentina, that shouldn’t be a good thing. Why did it become a good thing when it came to you?”
Masayoshi Kishimoto knew that with her IQ level, it was normal for her not to be able to understand. He couldn’t help but explain to her, “Someone was in urgent need of cash to replenish their positions in Argentina, so they took the initiative to find me.
Banks need collateral to borrow money. Not to mention the 3.5 billion U.S. dollars such a large sum of money? Even if I don’t have to say it, the other party should know that it’s impossible to get the money with just a few words.
Moreover, this kind of lending money out to gamble on his character is tantamount to delivering the handle of the knife to the other party. This can not become the other party happy when to pay back the money, then when to pay back the money.
Not happy to pay back the money, then is not to pay back? Or in the future, do you recognize that you have borrowed your money, but you don’t have it now, and you will pay it back later when you have it?
Is it going to make me wait until the next lifetime? It’s good to bet on anything, just don’t bet on character. The risks involved are not only big, but also not easily controllable.”
Natsui Makoto suddenly realized, “I see. When you gave 3.5 billion dollars to someone who was in desperate need of money, you didn’t give it for nothing, but you got a good portion of Hard Gold Media’s shares from the other party’s hands.”
“That’s what it means. The outbreak of the financial crisis in Argentina was simply bad, if not doomed, for people who had investments over there.
For my kind of people who don’t have investments over there, originally it was just to see what’s going on, but I’ve gained something from it. I didn’t have enough cash on hand, and I wanted to save the business in Argentina, so I had to sell my assets here in Japan for cash.
I finally got what I’ve been longing for for years, do you think I should be happy?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said without haste.
“Should be happy.” Natsui Makoto replied without hesitation.
“Let’s open a bottle of French champagne to celebrate properly.” Masayoshi Kishimoto suggested.
“Too extravagant, waste of money.” Natsui Makoto blurted out.
“You can’t always afford to spend money, so what fun is there in your life?” Masayoshi Kishimoto shook his head.
“Having our children, having you, having food and clothing and not worrying about money fills my life with fun and joy.” Natsui Makoto said in a serious manner.
“It seems that our children are already taking my place as number one in your heart.” Masaru Kishimoto said as he heard that she didn’t put herself in the first place.
“Could it be that you’re still jealous?” Natsui Makoto said with a joyful smile.
“Yes a little bit.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said with a knowing smile.
