Chapter 278 Death of Sato Takashi

Chapter 278 Death of Sato Takashi

Kitahara Sosuke sat on the window sill in his pajamas, picked up a cigarette and lit it, quietly looking at the snowy scene outside. Unknowingly, it had been almost a month since he arrived in Kyoto. After arriving in this ancient capital, his Kitahara investment was hindered in various ways. Dongsan was also inexplicably ignored.

But none of this stopped him from moving forward.

Those who compete with him are not only resisting Beiyuan Investment, which is bound to rise, but also the general trend of the times——

Japan’s economy was destined to burn up after the bubble burst;

Japan is destined to enter the Great Depression of thirty years;

Three pillars of new industries destined to rise in the new era!

Those who dare to arm-wrestle with the wheel of history will eventually be crushed to death under the wheel.

Kitahara Sosuke was still quite emotional. At first, he chose to help Miyazawa Kiichi. He also hoped that this Prime Minister who would be the Prime Minister for more than a year would bring some convenience to him. After all, he appeared in court to testify in the Tokyo Supreme Court and was his most loyal person. allies.

Unfortunately, the Miyazawa family finally chose to part ways with him.

If this is the case, then he can just support a new supporter.

Morihiro Hosokawa's Japan New Party is the first example of an opposition party taking power in Japanese history. Without the complicated relationships and psychological baggage of the Liberal Democratic Party, he is even bolder. Unfortunately, the new prime minister failed to prevent the reversal of the great era, and finally had to bear the economic crisis. The black pot.

After him, Tsumugi Hata and Tomiichi Murayama came to power. The former was also the backbone of the New Party of Japan, and later established the New Party of Japan. Unfortunately, he only served as prime minister for 2 months before stepping down. The latter was pushed out during the midterm period. The old man who resists pressure is just a transition.

Both Hosokawa Morihiro and Hata Tsugumi were ambitious and ambitious. Unfortunately, they were unable to reverse the economic decline. They resigned in the disappointment of the people. Coupled with the pressure of Murayama Tomiichi, the three of them were in office for only 2 years and 0 years in total. For 3 months, everything I did was to pave the way for the next one.

That person is the one Kitahara Sosuke is betting on.

Ryutaro Hashimoto, the two-term prime minister who carried the economic tide for two and a half years at the time!

Of course, the new party leader Hosokawa Morihiro, who received strong support from Kitahara Investment at this time, did not know the true purpose of Kitahara Sosuke and thought he was his loyal supporter.

As one of the matchmakers, Ryutaro Hashimoto and the Sanwa Consortium became the backers and matchmakers of Kitahara Sosuke. During this time, Kitahara Sosuke also developed a relationship similar to Ken Nagano.

These Tokyo giants have to admit that the Kitahara family is already a heavyweight emerging giant that they cannot ignore.

Kitahara Investment, which now has total assets of 5.2 trillion yen, ranks among the top 50 Japanese companies, ranking 47th!

It only takes 1 year since it was registered!

The speed of development is extremely frightening.

From a side corner that no one cares about, to an inexplicable monopoly on the logistics industry, several emerging industries have developed, and now the new policy proposed by Hosokawa Morihi perfectly fits the development policy of Kitahara Investment. No matter how stupid you are, you can still see some of it. Something is wrong.

After breakfast, Kitahara Sosuke came to the Kyoto branch. The atmosphere in the bank was gloomy. Because of Sato Takashi's ridiculous joint financing project, the Kyoto branch was suddenly in a worrying situation. After another 500 billion yen was forcibly invested, the branch turned out to be as Kitahara Sosuke said. Generally, it encountered a major financial crisis.

At this time, looking back at the way President Taotaro and Finance Minister Takashi Sato knelt and licked the four major clubs, everyone in the industry felt disgusted from the bottom of their hearts, and expressed an inexplicable affection for Kitahara Sosuke, who had always been opposed.

During the regular morning meeting, the atmosphere was serious. As the president, Tao Taro could not say a word. The staff below were all full of resentment, and he could not refute it.

With so much money gone, who will bear the responsibility?

Not to mention promotions and salary increases at the end of the year, whether they can stay in their jobs at the Kyoto Branch is still a question.

As the main person in charge, Takashi Sato simply locked himself in the office and stayed behind closed doors, in a state of complete self-destruction.

"Regarding this joint financing project and interest-free bailout loan, the branch may have to bear a total loss of up to 600 billion yen, if losses caused by capital flows are included."

Tao Tarang tried his best to talk to them in a calm tone. The blame was too big for him to shoulder alone.

But when he was halfway through his words, he was suddenly interrupted by Sosuke Kitahara who was speaking.

"Sorry, President, what you just said means that the branch has to bear responsibility. I really can't agree with this."

"???"

Many people's eyes came over.

He didn't stop talking and continued,

"As for the issues that Vice President Kitahara is worried about, I promise here that no matter what problems arise now, I, Taro Tao, will take full responsibility!"

"I remember you said this in the meeting, so I agreed with your plan, but I also reiterated that I did not agree with such a plan, including the subsequent interest-free loan. I also said that if We are willing to admit that they are not a quality club, propose to the board of directors of the head office that they are inferior customers, and recover the loan. In this way, at least we can make up for it without taking full responsibility!"

Kitahara Sosuke's words were very resonant. Taotaro blushed but could not refute. He did say that he would shoulder the responsibility, and Kitahara Sosuke did express his position many times and opposed these loans!

"What Vice President Kitahara said makes sense, but the matter is now over, let's not talk about these things anymore." Tao Tailang wanted to say something more, but found that he couldn't say anything else.

At this point, the solution to the problem is the key. He secretly glanced at Kitahara Sosuke. This man seemed to be the only savior who could pull the Kyoto branch out of the quagmire.

But if he asked Kithara Sosuke for help, he couldn't do it no matter what.

Kithara Sosuke looked at him with a half-smile, and said lightly: "That's right, no matter who is held responsible now, it will be of no use. The important thing is to solve the current problem. Regarding this, President, do you have any good suggestions?"

good suggestion?

How dare Tao Tailang make any suggestions now!

He began to completely doubt his own vision.

However, looking at the suspicious and distrustful looks of all the staff below, he knew that he had to make a decision.

After hesitating for a long time, Tao Tarang took a deep breath and said slowly: "Everyone, I have an unshirkable responsibility for this loan crisis, and I deeply apologize for this."

As he spoke, he stood up and bowed deeply to everyone.

For this useless routine apology and bow, everyone else, not to mention Kitahara Sosuke, was numb and just looked at Taotaro and waited for the next step.

"The person who established the project this time is Sato-san, the director of the financing department. Sato-san is a veteran employee of Tosan and a senior banker. His vision has always been very accurate. Although there were mistakes in this loan, I believe he has already A proper solution was found.”

Kithara Sosuke raised his eyebrows. This old guy is really stubborn. He would rather blame Sato Takashi again than bow to himself!

Is there someone with a higher position standing behind him?

Kitahara Sosuke has always felt that there is someone on Tosan's board of directors who is secretly targeting him, but who that person is, he can't decide for the time being. The Kyoto branch targeting him so much may be partly due to the Chino family, but the root cause must be within Tosan. !

Finding that person, pulling him out, and killing him is also one of Kitahara Sosuke's goals this time.

Tao Tailang wanted to continue talking, but the closed door of the conference room was suddenly pushed open forcefully.

The person who rushed in in a panic was an ordinary female employee who could not attend the regular meeting. She pressed her hands on her heaving chest, looking nervous and frightened. It took a while before she calmed down.

It can be seen that she looks very out of character. Kithara Sosuke knows this female staff member, named Ogawa Moriko, who is Sato Takashi's assistant to the minister.

"What's going on, Ogawa-san?" Kato Miko, the deputy director of the financing department, asked softly.

"No, no, Sato, Minister Sato, he hanged himself in the office!!!"
