Chapter 504: Fall
January 12, 1990. This winter seems to be a little colder than usual.
However, the biting cold wind outside still couldn't cool Takeda's hot mood.
As a recognized elite in society and the sales director of a securities firm, Takeda is warmly received by many customers every day.
Yes, although he is essentially a salesperson, responsible for selling his own financial products.
But in the context of a market where supply exceeds demand, Takeda is already in a dominant position in deal activity.
The securities and stocks he promotes often bring huge profits to his clients.
Thanks to these great achievements, Takeda has been very successful in the securities market in recent years.
Braving the cold wind, Takeda, dressed in a suit and tie, walked into the trading hall of Toyo Securities with elegance.
"Takeda-san, you are here. A few days ago, we said that some additional shares of Changxin Bank would flow out. Please help me get them no matter what."
As soon as I entered the door, a middle-aged man wearing glasses came over attentively.
While greeting him, he unnoticedly slipped a bank deposit slip into Takeda's pocket.
With a quick glance, it was probably around 10 million yen. Finally, there was some progress, and Takeda smiled.
“Please rest assured, Yagi-san, Changxin will issue a lot of additional shares this time, and we at Toyo Securities have already reserved some of them.
You just need to prepare the funds and wait for the profit later. "
"Haha, then I'll leave it all to Takeda-san. As usual, we're in Ginza tonight, so please don't be late, Takeda-san~"
The middle-aged man named Yagi couldn't stop smiling, but although he received a satisfactory response, he did not forget every tacitly agreed trip of consolation.
When mentioning Ginza, Takeda seemed to think of the girl who entertained him last time.
Oh, that figure is really amazing~
"Well, since Mr. Yagi has invited me, I will definitely be there on time tonight." Takeda agreed very happily with a serious face.
Takeda was not surprised at all that Yagi came to him on his own initiative.
The stocks of large banks like Changxin Bank have never been difficult to sell.
Didn’t you see in the financial report released by the other party that the scale of high-quality loan business such as real estate exceeded 10 trillion yen?
That's real estate, it will definitely appreciate in value in the future.
At a time when the property market is booming, if you buy Changxin’s stocks, making money will be as easy as breathing.
Especially for newly issued shares, the initial price is generally not high, but a subsequent price increase is a foregone conclusion.
Therefore, these new shares became the hot cakes that many institutions scrambled for, and Dongyang Securities, which had a partnership with Changxin, of course also got some pre-determined shares.
Behind Yagi is a financial investment institution. When they smelled something, they immediately approached Takeda.
However, the initial contact was not smooth until today when a deposit certificate of 10 million yen was stuffed into my pocket.
Only then did Takeda change his previous arrogance and become amiable.
Are you kidding me? For a transaction worth billions of yen, how can you do it without taking a cut?
If you don't buy, there are others who will. Takeda has no shortage of customers.
After a few polite words, Takeda, in a good mood, prepared to return to his office.
However, before he had taken two steps, another guest who had been waiting here came to the door.
"Takeda-san, I heard that Xinye Bank is planning to issue a large amount of financial bonds to the public recently?"
"Hmm?" Takeda's eyes narrowed. Not many people knew this news.
But when he saw the person in front of him clearly, Takeda secretly said, "No wonder."
"It's Sato-san. How come you have time to come here today?"
The other party is the president of Yamaga Credit, so it is understandable that he knew the news in advance.
"Mr. Takeda, why don't we go talk somewhere else?" Sato winked at Takeda secretly.
The latter glanced at the messy hall, thought for a moment, and nodded in agreement to Sato's proposal.
The trading hall of Toyo Securities is just like the Tokyo Stock Exchange, which can display the price trends of each stock in real time.
Therefore, many clients of Toyo Securities are too lazy to go to the stock exchange and will pay attention to stock information here.
It is only 7:30 and the market has not yet opened, but there are already many people waiting in the hall.
Avoiding the noisy crowd, Takeda and Sato took the elevator to the office upstairs.
"Takeda-san, Shinyo Bank has 780 billion bonds, and Yamaga wants to take 200 billion!"
As soon as he entered the office, Sato stated his goal straight away.
"Mr. Sato, this is not a small number." Takeda was surprised at the appetite of Yamaga Securities.
Directly buying 25% of the bank's bonds, is this a preparation to acquire shares in China CITIC Bank?
Hearing Takeda's question, Sato smiled proudly.
"Yamaga Securities is considering entering the banking industry, but due to regulations, we can only start with Industrial Bank."
Japanese law stipulates that securities and banks cannot operate in the same company. If Yamaga Securities wants to enter the banking industry, it can only set up a new company.
However, if Sato becomes a major creditor of Industrial Bank, he will be able to circumvent the regulations and find a loophole outside the law.
Unfortunately, bank bonds generally have limit requirements, and the Yamaga family cannot take up such a large share.
But Sato knew that Takeda had his own ways, and he might gain something different from him.
"Of course, after the deal is done, Yamaga Securities will never forget Mr. Takeda's help." Sato took out a check and pushed it forward without leaving a trace.
After seeing the series of numbers above, Takeda felt dizzy.
One hundred million yen, that's a lot of money ~
Takeda, who was breathing rapidly, finally suppressed the restlessness in his heart. He raised his head and looked steadily at Sato opposite him.
"I wonder how much your company still needs?"
Sato smiled, "80 billion yen~"
80 billion is also a huge sum of money for Takeda, and it is also right near the upper limit of the amount of funds he can mobilize.
After struggling for a while and looking at the check on the table, he finally picked up the phone on the table.
"Xinye Bank? I'm Takeda..."
Two minutes later, Takeda hung up the phone and looked confidently at Sato who was standing beside him.
"Sato-san, the transaction will be completed online in half an hour."
"Yoshi, today's help, Sato will remember it in his heart!"
This time, Sato happily pushed the check in front of Takeda, then stood up, bowed, and left the office.
Looking at the other person's back as he left, and then looking at the check on the table, Takeda could no longer conceal the heat in his eyes.
He picked up the check and flicked it gently. The pleasant crisp sound of "click" made Takeda smile unconsciously.
Another 100 million yen in revenue. It's so easy to make money~
Takeda was in a very good mood. Looking at the gray sky outside, he felt that the grayness had its own beauty.
But once you get the money, you have to work. Takeda has always been trustworthy.
After opening the computer on the desk and confirming the amount, terms and other information, Takeda casually clicked the print button.
Within two minutes, Assistant Ono came over with a document.
"Mr. Takeda, this is the order you just placed with Industrial Bank. Please confirm it again."
"Hmm~" After taking a casual glance and confirming that everything was correct, Takeda signed his name on the contract without hesitation.
Tsk, the order has been placed, and the 100 million yen in my pocket belongs completely to me from now on.
"Draft another transfer contract, and these bonds will be transferred to Yamaga Securities in half an hour."
"Hai" Ono took the signed contract and hurried away.
I looked at my wrist and saw that it was almost eight o'clock and the stock market was about to open.
Takeda became alert and quickly picked up the remote control and turned on the TV in the office.
Soon the electronic screen of the stock market appeared on the screen, and this TV and the electronic screen in the hall displayed the stock market information synchronously.
Usually, Takeda would sit here and direct his subordinates to buy or sell some stocks. Of course, he himself was also a member of the stock trading army.
As an executive of a securities company, Takeda himself was doing well in the stock market thanks to some inside information and a keen sense of smell.
The stock market fluctuated over the past two days and Takeda wisely chose to remain on the sidelines. However, yesterday the Nikkei index rebounded again, which made Takeda eager to move.
His entire fortune is in the stock market. How can he expand his assets if he doesn't take advantage of the situation?
As the time on the screen jumped to eight o'clock, the previously motionless stock market began to update its data rapidly.
Sure enough, it’s rising again!
Without thinking, Takeda picked up the phone on the table, "Ono, increase your position! Increase your position! Move all your funds! This wave of growth will last at least a month!"
"Hai!"
The numbers kept rising in the red, stimulating Takeda's voice to become hoarse.
According to his estimation, the stock market, which has been stable for a week, should usher in the next stage of the bull market.
Seeing the signs of rising opening prices, Takeda chose to go all in and increase his position without hesitation.
He earned his billions of yen through such gambling.
It seems that it won’t be long before my net worth doubles again, and by then I should be not far from 10 billion.
Thinking of this brilliant idea, Takeda was so proud that he even sang Noh in the office.
Shaking his head, he began to miss the young girls in Ginza again.
Tsk, why aren't you off work yet? And I don't know if Yagi-san has booked a table yet?
Hey, why is it green?
Takeda babbled and seemed to see a flash of green before his eyes.
When he sat up straight and looked at the screen in front of him, he was stunned.
This... this... why is it all green? !
Takeda rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not seeing things.
However, in just a short period of time, the Nikkei index has plummeted from more than 38,000 points to around 30,000 points.
"Ono! Ono!" Takeda's panicked voice rang out in the office.
"Takeda-san~!" Ono, who heard the call from next door, hurried over.
"Is the TV in the office broken?! How could the stock market fall? How could it fall so much?!"
After looking at the screen, Ono was also shocked by the numbers on it.
“Takeda-san, I don’t know either…”
"Then check it out! Go downstairs and check it out immediately!" Takeda, with his hair and beard standing up and red eyes, yelled at Ono.
"Huh!" Xiao Ye was so frightened that he ran downstairs.
"Fake! Everything is fake!" Takeda muttered to himself and turned back to his desk, still not believing what he had just seen.
However, his eyes inadvertently swept across the TV again, and the Nikkei index of 30,000 points had become 27,000 points.
All stocks in the entire stock market are falling, including famous stocks such as Nomura Securities, Toyota, and NTT.
"Fake! It's all fake!" An angry Takeda grabbed the teacup on the table and smashed it at the TV not far away.
With a loud "bang", a string of sparks came out of the TV and quickly disappeared in the rising white smoke.
However, none of this could attract Takeda's attention at all.
"It must be a technical adjustment~ It must be a technical adjustment~"
The sound of mumbling to oneself continued to echo in the office.
