As Saitoi stood up and took the blame, everyone pointed the finger at him, and reporters from the island countries present were rushing to ask questions.
"President Saitoi, you just talked about acting selfishly. Did you use your power for personal gain in this incident?"
"Hello, President Saitoi, according to what you just said , do you now admit that the Toyota Group shares held by Longxing International Investment Fund are valid?”
“Chairman Saitoi, do you have any interests tied to Toyota Group in this matter?”
“Have you used the public for personal gain? President?”
Saitoi did not answer the reporter's question. He knelt on the podium, bowed his head again and apologized: "Private Marseille!"
Anyone who knows the culture of the island country knows that no matter what happens, they will think of it immediately. The best thing is not to solve the problem, but to apologize first.
Because of this, many high-level officials of island countries have kneeled down to apologize.
When the picture spread to all over the world through the Internet, Davich couldn't sit still. The island country was trying to stab the United States in the back!
“No, Longxing Group must not be allowed to control Toyota Group. Once Longguo obtains Toyota Group’s core industrial technology, no country will be able to stop its rise!”
Thinking of this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and called Renato Marotta.
After a few busy signals, the call was connected.
"Davich? What's the matter?"
Renato Marotta's voice was a little haggard, maybe because he didn't get a good rest.
"Longxing Group is about to take control of Toyota Group. Don't we do something?" Davich said in a gloomy tone.
"It has already been done." Renato Marotta sighed and told the inside story: "Ansa sent three aircraft carrier fleets to the East China Sea, but the military strength of the Dragon Kingdom has exceeded all of us. Cognition."
"The aircraft carrier can't defeat them?" Davich comes from a financial background and doesn't understand military affairs at all.
“…”
Renato Marotta was silent for a long time.
Then he explained in a deep voice: "The top speed of our Ford-class aircraft carrier is 35 knots, which is 40 miles per hour."
After a slight pause, he added: "The destroyer hit by Long Guo's intercontinental missile exercise has a maximum speed of 35 knots."
Davich's eyes flashed with surprise, and he asked again: "Are you "Is it possible that the Dragon Kingdom has the ability to destroy our aircraft carrier?"
"It's not possible, it's certain,"
Renato Marotta said earnestly.
“……”
Davidic was also silent.
No wonder the top management and media in the United States are so quiet. It turns out that it is not that they want to be quiet, but something makes them quiet.
With a range of 12,000 kilometers, it can carry multiple nuclear warheads and accurately hit a destroyer traveling at a speed of 35 knots thousands of kilometers apart. Who dares to mess with this?
There was once a post on the Tianya Forum with the title: If the end of the world comes, will ordinary people hoard gold or food?
The popular reply is very short, just three words: "I stock up on guns."
Whether it's ancient times or modern times, big fists are the last word.
No matter how good your economic development is, if you do not develop military strength, then others may raise their fists and steal your money.
Just like the peninsula and the northern peninsula, no matter how good the peninsula's economic development is, it does not dare to let the United States withdraw its troops, because the military strength of the northern peninsula is enough to level it in an instant.
Only when the fist is strong enough can we talk about economy and technology.
……
And at the same time.
The other side.
The high-level meeting hall of ancient Xiang Kingdom.
After seeing the economic benefits brought by Longguo’s tough tactics and intercontinental missiles, they suddenly woke up.
“It turns out that launching an intercontinental missile can revive the market economy. Why don’t we imitate it and launch an intercontinental missile?”
"Minister Dadali is right. The global financial system is collapsing. We cannot let the Dragon Kingdom eat this financial dividend alone." Being able to attract global funds is a great benefit to our capital market.”
“I support the launch of intercontinental missiles!”
“I support it too!”
The senior officials of Ancient Xiang Kingdom passed the launch meeting in a very short period of time.
Although in the eyes of the Wuchang countries, the ancient Xiang Kingdom is an inferior country, its military strength ranks among the best in the world, and it also possesses intercontinental ballistic missiles.
In addition to the Ancient Elephant Kingdom, Britain, France and Mao Xiong are also ready to take action. They have all seen the economic effects brought by intercontinental missiles.
Now is a period of change, and the direction of international capital flows has yet to be determined. Even if you can't eat meat, it is always good to drink some soup.
For this reason, Britain, France, Mao Xiong, and countries around the world with intercontinental missile manufacturing capabilities have restarted test-launch plans.
In addition, the US military is also intensively preparing to test-launch intercontinental missiles to carry out military threats.
It is no exaggeration to say that the three Dongfeng intercontinental ballistic missiles launched by Longguo are quietly changing the world structure and allowing countries around the world to see the strength of the great eastern country.
The saying "If you don't make a sound, you will be nothing, but if you make a blockbuster," it is completely applicable to today's Dragon Kingdom.
No one would have thought that a hundred years ago, the Dragon Kingdom, which had no power to restrain a chicken and was at the mercy of others, would actually use less than seventy years to develop strong muscles that shocked the whole world.
On the Longguo Internet at this time, countless netizens were collectively excited.
[Withered leaves at the bottom of the tree]: "Sure enough, big fists are the last word. Damn it, if Xiao Baga dares to cheat, we will beat him until he submits!"
[Wolong Zhuge]: "This word is wrong. It seems that we are too barbaric. Besides, we are only conducting military exercises at home and have not taken action against Xiao Baga. We should say that we are flexing our muscles and letting the island country retreat in the face of difficulties."
[Wang Buliuxing]: "This is an exercise, and you can't say for sure next time. If the island country insists on going its own way, it is normal for the intercontinental missile to malfunction and the impact point to shift, right?"
[Feng Xiaoxixi]: "United Nations: Long Guo, are you saying that your intercontinental missile happened to be equipped with a live warhead, it happened to malfunction, and it happened to hit an island country?"
The powerful military strength has brought countless netizens back to their senses. It turns out that the great powers in the books have become their own countries.
In Longguo Shencheng, the office building of Longxing Group's Bantian base, in the president's office, Chen Xing was discussing with several vice presidents who would go to the island country to take over the Toyota Group.
"Everyone has seen the news. Now the island country has recognized the legality of the Toyota Group stocks in our hands, so now we are faced with the problem of who will take over."
As the head of the group, Chen Xing will definitely not be able to go abroad. of.
Once he goes abroad, there is no guarantee that the United States will send hundreds of agents to wash his hair with 7.62 rifle bullets.
For life safety reasons, he needs to select a suitable candidate to replace him in the island country to take over the Toyota Group.
Zhang Heting and Zhou Zhaoji are also good people. They all know that this trip carries risks to their personal safety. They are both approaching retirement and do not want to risk their lives.
"This..."
"We are not skilled in taking over business either..."
The two hesitated, expressing their meaning euphemistically.
Although their annual salary exceeds one million, they have to spend their money and their lives. When traveling to overseas countries, their own safety becomes a big problem.
Chen Xing also saw that the two did not want to take risks, and considering that they were his father's "entrepreneurial brothers", he waved his hand and said: "I understand, you can go back."
He didn't force him to go, just to give his father face.
And he also saw that whether it was Zhou Zhaoji, Zhang Heting or Yang Minshuo who managed the factory, they just wanted to work hard for the past two years and then retire smoothly.
Zhang Heting and Zhou Zhaoji looked at each other. Chen Xing's attitude made them both feel a little embarrassed. After all, they still received high salaries from the company, but now they even had to push back on things.
"This..."
Zhang Heting sighed and seemed to have made up his mind: "Actually, if someone must go, I am willing to go."
Zhou Zhaoji was a little surprised. Just as he was about to express his position, Zhang Heting beat him to it, which made him swallow the words on the tip of his tongue.
Chen Xing looked at the two of them, shook his head and said: "Forget it, you are too old and not suitable for long-distance business trips. I am also afraid that you are not used to your life, so I will find another person."
He is not blind either. It can be seen that the two of them do not want to go to the island country. He cannot do anything to force people.
Hearing this, Zhang Heting immediately realized that the takeover was to stay in the island country, and he quickly gave up the idea of taking over the Toyota Group.
“Okay then.”
"Then let's go back first."
"Mr. Chen will call us if something happens."
"Well, let's go back to work."
Zhang Heting and Zhou Zhaoji exited In the office, Chen Xing is thinking about candidates to go to the island country.
Li Zhenzhen has been sent to Europe by him to be responsible for the operation of the international business of Longxing Group. It is obviously unrealistic to recall him.
Wei Yan is in the United States again and has become the chief analyst of the Federal Reserve Bank of America. It is obviously more appropriate for him to stay in the United States.
"Recruit another business management talent?"
Chen Xing thought of the system.
But then again, can ordinary system personnel without training be able to deal with such a complex situation?
“Dong Dong——”
There was a knock on the office door.
Chen Xing looked up and stopped thinking about recruiting talents.
"Come in."
Next second.
Yao Nana pushed open the door and walked in.
Chen Xing's eyes flashed with surprise and he asked: "Is there something wrong?"
He also considered Yao Nana as the candidate to take over the Toyota Group.
In addition to being trained by Chen Xing, she is also very capable and the marketing department is managed in an orderly manner.
But if she leaves, what will the marketing department do?
In this era where the smell of wine is also feared by deep alleys, if you don’t know how to shout, not many people will buy it.
Because of this, although Yao Nana was a suitable candidate, Chen Xing never considered letting her go to the island country to take over the Toyota Group.
Of course.
There is another important reason.
That is, Yao Nana is Ren Guofei's daughter. If something happens to her, how will he explain to Ren Guofei?
No one can predict whether the island country will come up with any dirty tricks.
"Well..."
Yao Nana was a little embarrassed.
Seeing that she was a little embarrassed to say it, Chen Xing smiled calmly and said, "If you have something to say, just tell us. There is nothing we can't talk about."
Seeing that Chen Xing meant it to this extent, Yao Nana simply gave up.
"It's about taking over the Toyota Group. I don't think you, President, can go abroad. Now the West is watching with eager eyes. If something unexpected happens, the Longxing Group will be leaderless, so I want to ask for permission to go."
The words fell.
The eyes met, and no one spoke again.
Chen Xing looked at Yao Nana. He could tell that Yao Nana was not joking, but he also had his own concerns.
"Does Mr. Ren know?"
"I don't know." "Then you must obtain Mr. Ren's consent first, otherwise I won't dare to let you go."
“I can already make my own decision.”
Yao Nana retorted.
For the self-motivated rich second generation, surpassing their parents is their lifelong pursuit, and it is also an invisible pressure on their growth.
Take Lu Xun's grandson Zhou Fei as an example. Although he is not the second generation of rich people, he is recognized as the "third generation of literary people".
Because Lu Xun was so famous, when Zhou Fei was in elementary school, his classmates didn't call him his real name, but Lu Xun's grandson.
In order to escape this environment, he thought of joining the army, but as soon as he got off the company, the company commander shouted to the whole company that Zhou Fei was the grandson of Lu Xun, and he lost his real name.
After the recruit company ended, he was assigned to the health center and was asked to write company reports and promote articles.
Even though he repeatedly said that his literary skills were shallow, the company commanders just didn't believe him. They felt that he was Lu Xun's grandson, so it was impossible that he couldn't write articles, and he even sent cigarettes from time to time because Lu Xun knew how to smoke.
Zhou Fei could live under the aura of his grandfather. No matter how poorly written the article was, there would still be people doing reading comprehension, but he chose not to be "Lu Xun's grandson", but to be Zhou Fei.
The same goes for Yao Nana. She doesn't want to be Ren Guofei's daughter all her life, but wants to be herself.
Ordinary people actually have this kind of pursuit, that is, when people introduce themselves when they are young, they often refer to so-and-so’s children.
But when you become famous, you will no longer live under the halo of your parents.
Even when the older generation introduces your father, they will not say who is the son of so-and-so, but will say so-and-so’s father.
Chen Xing also saw Yao Nana's determination, but he was not an impulsive person. He expressed his attitude: "If Mr. Ren nods, I will let you take over the Toyota Group and you will be the agent." Chairman.”
The conditions have been stated, and Yao Nana also understands that there is no way around it.
"Okay."
She answered and dialed Ren Guofei's number in front of Chen Xing.
"Nana, why are you thinking of calling me? This is a rare visitor."
Ren Guofei's rich voice came out.
Obviously.
He was a little surprised.
For business families like them, there are very few phone calls to inquire about the welfare. Basically, they only call when there is something going on.
“I plan to represent the Longxing Group and go to the island country to take over the Toyota Group.”
“…”
The words just fell.
Ren Guofei was silent for a long time.
Yao Nana did not interrupt his thinking and waited silently for the next step.
"Chen Xing asked you to go?"
"No."
"You took the initiative to go?"
"I want to go further."
Yao Nana did not shy away and said it in front of Chen Xing and Ren Guofei.
People go to higher places, and water flows to lower places. It is never a shameful thing to express your ambition.
Chen Xing had nothing to say and just listened silently to the conversation between Ren Guofei and Yao Nana.
"If you want to gain access to higher rights, you can go back to Kunpeng Company. There is no need to take this risk." Ren Guofei sighed.
The current situation is uncertain, and he doesn't want anything unexpected to happen to Yao Nana.
Although the island country has strict gun control, the law gives island citizens the right to legally hold guns. If you encounter irrational elements, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"I need a bigger platform. Besides, the island country is not far from the Dragon Kingdom. I believe my personal safety will be guaranteed."
Yao Nana did not give in.
After a few seconds of silence, Ren Guofei asked, "Is Chen Xing next to you?"
Yao Nana did not answer immediately, but looked at Chen Xing.
“I’m here.”
Chen Xing said.
Knowing that Chen Xing was beside him, Ren Guofei also played the emotional card and said: "Brother Chen, we have known each other for so long, and you also call me Brother Ren. Let's do this. You make the decision. What do you think?" Can Nana go to the island country to take over the Toyota Group?”
It was easy to tell from his tone that he desperately didn't want Yao Nana to take risks.
This sentence also means that Chen Xing will come forward to persuade Yao Nana.
Chen Xing has been struggling for so long, so he can naturally understand the subtext, and immediately responded: "I respect everyone's decision. If my opinion affects your inner judgment, it is not right. Fair."
Chen Xing seemed to have said a lot, but he could express it concisely in just four words.
Follow your heart.
"..."
Ren Guofei was silent again.
For families who are not short of money and have the same family, family affection is the most important thing to them.
"Dad, please don't embarrass Chen Xing. I want to go on my own. Besides, I'm not going alone. I can hire a bodyguard team." Yao Nana spoke again.
But in Ren Guofei's view, Yao Nana was different from Li Zhenzhen back then. She dared to go back to the peninsula because she had her old party members.
When Yao Nana went to the island country, neither Ren Guofei nor Chen Xing had any foundation.
Although there is a Miyazaki family secretly, everyone else has their own needs. Unless there is a critical moment, they will never reveal that they are cooperating with Chen Xing.
“Alas!”
Ren Guofei sighed heavily, and finally said, “Forget it, you can go if you want, but I have a condition, that is, I must hire professional bodyguards. The team, and..."
Suddenly, he changed the subject and said: "Brother Chen, I know you have a lot of connections. If you can, please take more care of me."
"Definitely."
Chen Xing nodded in response.
He did not intend to let Yao Nana go alone. He must contact all parties to ensure her personal safety.
Hearing Chen Xing's assurance, Ren Guofei felt relieved a little.
"With your words, I will feel at ease. You can decide the rest by yourself."
Just after he finished speaking, he added: "By the way, the research and development of flying cars is progressing very quickly. Chief Hua asked me to tell you that mass production is expected to be in June."
"Thank you for your hard work."
“It’s not hard work, we are partners.”
After Chen Xing and Ren Guofei exchanged a few more polite words, Yao Nana also hung up the phone.
Now that he has decided to send Yao Nana to the island country to take over the Toyota Group, Chen Xing no longer hides it and tells her full plan.
"Nana, when you arrive at the Toyota Group, the first thing you will do is dissolve the board of directors and remove all positions of Takahiro Saikawa."
"Then immediately, lay off all the top executives of their company and the top managers of each department. Dropped."
"Huh?"
"Why?"
Yao Nana couldn't help but ask.
Chen Xing collected his thoughts and explained: "It is very important for new leaders to come in and win over people's hearts. We cannot judge how many old members of Takahiro Saikawa there are in the Toyota Group, but what is certain is that they all hold important positions."
"Resigning all the old senior managers will, firstly, eliminate old problems, and secondly, make middle-level employees become senior managers naturally. This is the benefit we give them, and it is also a way to win people's hearts."
"No one Even if they don’t recognize you in their hearts, they will recognize you openly and it will be more convenient for them to do things.”
Anyone who has worked there knows that employees don’t care. There is internal fighting in the company, and they only care about whether the monthly salary can be paid normally.
If you are a rival company and want to poach people, you only need to offer 30% more salary, and ordinary employees will jump ship without hesitation.
Although Yao Nana is an airborne leader without a basic team, she only needs to buy a group of people to maintain the stability of the company.
“I understand.”
Yao Nana nodded.
"There is one more thing." Chen Xing continued the previous topic and said patiently: "When we have a firm foothold, we will immediately start cooperation with Longxing Group."
"What if they veto?"< br>
Yao Nana asked.
She also noticed the news. Longxing International Investment Fund only got 51% of the shares, not 100% control.
As we all know, as long as shareholders own 30% of the company's shares, they automatically unlock a veto power and can negate the board of directors' decision.
This is also the reason why many companies are reluctant to go public.
They are afraid that someone will deliberately collect shares and exercise their veto power.
"If they do this." Chen Xing smiled and said calmly: "We can only dismember the Toyota Group and slowly absorb it."
"Dismember..."
Yao Nana swallowed saliva.
Having been in the same camp as Chen Xing for a long time, she could no longer feel the cruelty of this man.
When she looked at the problem from the Toyota Group's perspective this time, he finally discovered why the West had such a headache for Chen Xing, because this man always had an alternative.
Chen Xing's "Dismemberment Plan" is also very simple, that is, if Saikawa Takada dares to use a veto to interfere with the normal operation of the group, then Yao Nana can also use a veto to completely stop the Toyota Group.
The global automobile market is currently being reshuffled, and Japanese companies that have been affected are scrambling against time. If the Toyota Group presses the pause button at this time, it will be completely overwhelmed by huge liabilities and labor expenses in less than half a year. collapse.
According to public information, Toyota Group has 270,000 employees.
If 270,000 people are unemployed, it will be a heavy blow to the already fragile economy of the island country.
Will the top leaders of the island country sit back and do nothing?
They certainly won't care.
In addition, the island country backstabbed the United States once, and it may backstab the United States a second time, a third time, and a fourth time. Chen Xing is bound to win the Toyota Group's industrial system and patented technology.
......
What happened was just as Yao Nana expected. Before Saitoi knelt down to apologize, Wall Street Capital contacted Nishikawa Takahiro, and also contacted the senior officials of the island country to witness, and the two companies remotely The "Conformity of Action Agreement" was reached, with Takahiro Saikawa representing the Toyota Group shares held by Wall Street.
The task given by Wall Street to Nishikawa Guida is, as the second largest shareholder, to veto all decisions of the parachute leader of Longxing Group.
The current Toyota Group shares are also extremely concentrated, with Chen Xing owning 51%, Nishikawa Takahiro owning 37%, and only 12% still in circulation.
In the view of Wall Street giants, as long as it holds a veto power, it is impossible for Longxing Group to get anything from Toyota Group.
After hearing this proposal, the senior officials of the island country clapped their hands and applauded.
It is precisely because there is a way out and there is no need to worry about Longxing Group using Toyota Group to complete the closed loop in the automobile manufacturing field that Saitoi apologized and admitted that the stocks held by Longxing International Investment Fund were legal. sex.
