Chapter 520: Great Gift
Kaoru Ogawa is the second-in-command of the general association, second only to Ryuichi Koike in status.
He is from Hiroshima, and his home is only 1.1 kilometers away from the center where the nuclear bomb fell.
Unfortunately, on the day of the explosion, the guy went out to sea to fish, and his whole family escaped.
Because his father was close to the yakuza and his family made a living by selling gambling equipment, Kaoru Ogawa also developed the gambling habit.
At the age of 16, he lost all the money in his family's store and fled to Tokyo overnight.
Later, he came into contact with the stock market by learning from masters and also became a disciple of Congressman Hideo Kurita, who is now one of the association's protectors.
Kaoru Ogawa is famous for forcing his way into speaking at corporate shareholder meetings, and the organizers are unable to stop him.
The highly recognizable Hiroshima dialect has become a nightmare for many business operators.
"I couldn't sleep for three days after hearing Ogawa's horrible Hiroshima dialect."
Relying on his fierce fighting and charging skills when he was young, Kaoru Ogawa even gathered a group of so-called "Hiroshima Group" inside the general association house.
Using the extorted funds and the help of Yakuza members, he even set up his own advertising company.
He was the main planner behind the debut of the "Pink Lady" group which was very popular in the early 1980s.
It is said that during the years when they were active, they earned at least 50 billion yen for Ogawa Kaoru.
Because of his wealth and power, Kaoru Ogawa has a wide circle of friends and has close relationships with Sumitomo Bank, Toyo Bank, Fuji Bank, etc.
However, this guy couldn't change his bad habits and in 1982 he became addicted to football gambling again.
Each time he bet, he would bet tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of yen. His talent in gambling was hard to describe. Within a few years, he had lost most of the wealth he had accumulated.
As a result, his advertising company also declared bankruptcy a few years ago, and the media was very excited about this matter at the time.
Now that his pockets are empty, he has become the vanguard in dealing with Shirakawa Electric.
Shirakawa Electric publishes financial reports every year, showing profits of more than 300 billion yen. How can this not be exciting?
Especially since the Japanese stock market has been volatile this year, this is a good time for them to take action.
Listening to Ogawa Kaoru's thick Hiroshima accent, Shirakawa Kaede's information about him instantly flashed through his mind.
Ota and Arai Yu had introduced these to him before, but today was the first time they had dealt with each other.
"It's Ogawa-san, nice to meet you~
Why are you here today? Are you also a fan of Shirakawa Electric?"
"Haha, I'm not only a fan of Shirakawa Electric, I'm even a shareholder."
As he spoke, Ogawa Kaoru proudly took out a stock certificate. Shirakawa Feng took a quick look and saw that he held 8.2% of the shares.
Tsk, this is a huge investment.
Based on the current market value of Shirakawa Electric of nearly 7 trillion yen, the General Association has invested at least 500 billion yen in order to disrupt the shareholders' meeting.
No wonder the General Association had no intention of discussing it. It turned out that they really had some unusual purpose.
Disrupting the shareholders' meeting is just the first step. Besides, given the size of Shirakawa Electric, there are many shareholders from all over the country.
In order to limit the number of participants to a certain scale, the entry threshold of shareholding ratio will inevitably be raised.
The General Association wants to cause trouble, how can they do that without making a big show?
Even behind the scenes, the headquarters is still buying up Shirakawa Electric's shares. After all, it wants to swallow an elephant like a snake.
Seeing the other party's smug look, Baichuan Feng smiled indifferently.
"Thanks to Mr. Ogawa's appreciation, Shirakawa Electric will surely flourish in the future with the strong financial support of the General Association."
Most of the shares acquired by the Association House were sold by Shirakawa Holdings.
In other words, all the money that Shirakawa Holdings cashed out at this moment came from the general meeting house.
Just breathe slowly. Hopefully, two months later, you will still be able to smile again.
Since he knew that the other party had ill intentions, Baichuan Feng said a few polite words and was too lazy to pay any more attention to him.
However, before he had taken two steps, Ogawa Kaoru called out to Shirakawa Kaede again.
"Shirakawa-san, to celebrate Soujou becoming one of the major shareholders of Shirakawa Electric, we have also prepared a gift for you."
As he spoke, Ogawa Kaoru waved his hand, and immediately one of his men behind him handed him a brown paper envelope.
Originally, this gift was prepared for Hasegawa, but unexpectedly, Shirakawa Kaede would attend the meeting in person today.
This is the so-called head of the Shirakawa zaibatsu. A bold idea instantly popped up in Ogawa Kaoru's mind.
If this gift is presented to the founder of Shirakawa Group in person, it will surely have unexpected results.
These young people who grew up in peacetime have never experienced the baptism of blood and fire. In Ogawa Kaoru's eyes, they are all gigolos and idiots.
When he sees the gifts carefully selected by the club house, he will be so scared that he will pee his pants, haha~
Ogawa Kaoru could already imagine how scared Shirakawa Kaede was, and the smile on his lips rose wildly.
When Baichuan Feng saw the other party's expression, he knew that this so-called gift must not be a good thing.
But he certainly wouldn't be stage-frightened in such a public occasion. As the helmsman of the consortium, he could not retreat at any time.
Baichuan Feng casually took the kraft paper envelope handed over by the other party, opened the seal and took a look, his face immediately turned pale.
"Baka!~"
Hasegawa, who was standing behind him, saw the contents of the envelope and immediately wanted to rush forward with his fist.
"Hasegawa!" Shirakawa Feng raised his hand to stop his impulse.
"But Shirakawa-san, these bastards are going too far! This is a disgrace!"
It’s no wonder that Hasegawa was so excited. As the president of Shirakawa Electric, he had never been treated like this before.
Others such as Yasuda, Arai Yu and others also glared at each other in anger.
As for Sama and Kojima, they looked fierce. If they hadn't gotten Baichuan Feng's permission, they would have rushed over long ago.
The envelope contained a severed rooster's head. Baichuan Feng, who was holding the envelope, could even feel a hint of warmth.
Because he was completely unprepared, traces of blood had already flowed through the seal onto his hands.
Seeing that everyone at Shirakawa Electric was filled with indignation, Kaoru Ogawa burst into laughter.
"How is it, Mr. Shirakawa, are you satisfied with this gift? This is freshly picked~
I heard that you work day and night for the company's affairs, so it's just right that I can take these back to make up for it. Haha~"
Kaoru Ogawa and the huge group of people behind him laughed very happily. The Jidao rules of doing things are so overbearing.
In order to ensure the best effect, the rooster was even freshly slaughtered in the car.
How could these so-called social elites submit obediently if they were not shocked?
Taking a deep breath and trying to suppress the anger in his heart, Baichuan Feng resealed the envelope and handed it to Sama beside him.
After doing all this, he took out a handkerchief and slowly wiped the blood off his hands, then looked at Ogawa Kaoru opposite him with great calmness.
"I will remember your great gift today. The General Association House is really impressive."
Although his tone was calm, the cold light in his eyes pierced the other side with incomparable sharpness.
"As long as Shirakawa-san is satisfied, the headquarters will be ready at any time in the future if needed~"
Kaoru Ogawa speaks in Hiroshima dialect, which makes him stand out in the crowd.
Looking at the other person's wanton smile, Baichuan Feng also smiled.
"Mr. Ogawa, it seems like it's time for others to re-understand the word 'Shirakawa'."
After saying that, Baichuan Feng turned around and led a group of people into the Imperial Hotel as usual.
During this process, he never looked at Ogawa Kaoru and the others again.
When he saw that Baichuan Feng did not get frightened or furious as expected, he
To be honest, Kaoru Ogawa was a little disappointed that he failed to scare this guy.
It seems that to be able to become the head of a chaebol, one must have some skills.
Having been involved in fighting and killing for most of his life, Ogawa Xun knows very well that the calmer a person is in the face of humiliation, the more terrifying he is.
But now that it has been done, he has no time to hesitate.
"Let's go in too." Fumio Ogawa shook his head and led the way forward.
The fun has just begun, and the shareholders' meeting is the forte of the General Association House.
Seeing Shirakawa Kaede and Ogawa Kaoru enter the hotel one after another, the reporters outside the door became very anxious.
Although no one could hear the conversation between the two men at the door just now, one could tell that they were having a confrontation just by looking at their faces.
The head of a new financial group and a notorious club, the tit-for-tat confrontation between the two forces actually missed ~
The reporters, who had lost the big news, were eager to rush in and interview the parties involved in what had just happened.
Although I didn't hear what was said, I didn't know why the people from Shirakawa Electric were so excited just now.
But the reporters had already made up their minds to write about this scene in detail afterwards.
It would be a shame if such a good news topic didn’t attract some traffic.
As soon as the venue opened at 10 o'clock, the reporters who couldn't wait rushed into the hotel.
Having presided over several shareholders' meetings, Hasegawa was familiar with all the procedures.
As usual, the president gave a speech first, followed by a review of the company's history, mainly sharing the development of Shirakawa Electric in the past year.
There was no problem with the first two introductory procedures, but when Hasegawa announced the next decision regarding Shirakawa Electric, the people from the general association started to jump out and make trouble.
"In 1990-1991, Shirakawa Electric will continue to increase its investment in Southeast Asia in order to gain a larger share of the global market."
"I object!" A middle-aged man in a suit who looked very serious stood up and retorted loudly.
"So, sir, what do you think?" Hasegawa suppressed his anger and gestured for the other party to answer.
He knew that this person was from the general club, and he was among the crowd that Ogawa Kaoru was in just now.
“Why build a factory outside of Neon? Wouldn’t that just give away jobs to outsiders?
There are so many homeless people in Japan now. You black-hearted capitalists don’t care about the lives of the people. You are unpatriotic! "
What is the best thing about the club? Of course, it's talking nonsense.
In his mouth, a capacity transfer can be elevated to the level of patriotism, and he is very good at putting the blame on others.
Facing his question, Hasegawa answered calmly.
“The goal of a business is to make a profit, and we need to be responsible to all shareholders.
Building a factory in Southeast Asia can significantly save costs and create more profits, so that everyone's dividends at the end of the year will be guaranteed.
In addition, we also have corresponding expansion plans in Japan, and there is no such thing as favoritism as you mentioned."
Hasegawa's answer was well-reasoned and soon won everyone's applause.
Right, profit is the first goal, otherwise why would people buy Shirakawa Electric's stocks?
"In order to maintain Shirakawa Electric's leading position in the industry, we plan to invest 30 billion yen in research and development next year.
The money is mainly used for the development of new products such as audio technology, screen display technology, high-definition projection technology, and video recorders and cameras. "
"I object!" A voice with a strong Hiroshima dialect interrupted Hasegawa's speech again.
The one who spoke this time was Ogawa Kaoru, who was surrounded by everyone in the general meeting room. Seeing his lazy smile, everyone on the podium and Shirakawa Electric's side looked annoyed.
This guy is really infuriating.
