Reborn in the Tokyo Bubble Era

Page 482

Sun Zhengyi was stunned for a moment, and then said freely: "It's okay, I just see that the Gate of Heaven is gradually prospering, and I feel happy for Tao Jun."

Fukaya Riko led the way calmly.

Whether it is the finance minister of the Seibu Group or the later Nobuhiko Horikawa, such a person is absolutely powerful in the eyes of ordinary people.

Even if such a character is unclean, as long as he is willing to spend money, wouldn't there be a better ending than ending his life directly?

Protracted litigation, or secretly clearing up relationships, or mitigating guilt in other ways, may usher in a turning point in fate.

But they all jumped from here.

So simple-minded, he felt that Tao Zhiming might be the hero of the night, and he must have driven these villains to a desperate situation, so that they had nowhere to go.

And those who think a little bit more, naturally know that some important people have died, and the "big case" they are involved in can be better closed.

All in all, the current Tao Zhiming's reputation is mixed.

This does not affect his actual influence in the slightest.

For example, Sun Zhengyi and his wife brought their children to a family banquet, and they were very solemn.

The scale of Zhenyingju has expanded.

After Horikawa Nobuhiko arranged for the dead man Xiuzi to prepare a follower, Ueda Shana confirmed a fact: with Tao Zhiming's current status, if such a life-and-death struggle breaks out again, the person he cherishes may indeed become the target chips.

So regardless of whether other people live here in normal times, the entire floor where Zhenyingju was originally located has been completely renovated.As long as you pass through the path of the terrace garden, the whole floor is actually connected.

Naturally, there is no one else at home today, but she and Tao Zhiming are receiving guests together.

"Madam Tao, excuse me!" The Sun family couple was very polite and presented a gift.

"Welcome, welcome. This is your daughter, right? Taro, let's get to know my sister..."

Seeing them exchanging greetings, they seemed to be familiar with each other even though they were meeting for the first time. Tao Zhiming smiled and asked Sun Zhengyi to go inside: "Long time no see, Sun Jun. I heard from Lizi that you are preparing a big plan."

"Exactly." Sun Zhengyi nodded confidently, "I still need Tao Jun's advice on this plan."

"I can't talk about advice." Tao Zhiming just said modestly, "You probably know that many things have happened in the past two or three years, so I don't have much energy to pay attention to the computer industry. The problems I encountered before have already Basically solved, I also want to ask you about the status quo of the industry, as well as trends."

Sun Zhengyi lifted his spirits: "Then we can have a good chat today!"

He knew what the "problem" Tao Zhiming was talking about was.

As a leader in a new industry, in the past few years, Sun Zhengyi's business territory has nothing to do with real estate, and the relationship with finance is mainly concentrated in the US stock market.

But as a qualified entrepreneur, how could he not pay attention to the ups and downs of the economic environment?

From the Mogami Gokurakucho project to the Kaguracho project, Tao Zhiming seems to have also devoted himself to the real estate industry; the world’s richest man Yoshiaki Tsutsumi’s Osaki New City finally ended up with a lot of feathers, and Tao Zhiming also participated in it; With the adjacent Tokyo yacht home port, Tao Zhiming's hand in the real estate industry is not insignificant.

Not to mention the financial sector.Onodera's wealth itself is the foundation of his wealth empire, and a well-known trust was established before.

These two major sectors have been dealing with the collapse of the financial market and the real estate market in the past two or three years. One can imagine the magnitude of the problems they are facing.

Sun Zhengyi knows better that the problem he mentioned is not just a purely commercial problem.

The accusation of gold and power trading, his status as the director of the Financial Security Research Center of the Ministry of Finance, the halo of the walking god of finance, and the things involved in the seemingly endless Lockheed incident... Sun Zhengyi's scalp twitches when he thinks about it numb.

Following Tao Zhiming's footsteps to visit the layout of Zhenyingju, Sun Zhengyi looked at his calm and calm profile, and couldn't help but sigh: "Tao Jun, I really admire you..."

"Oh?" Tao Zhiming turned to look at him and smiled, "Why did you say this suddenly?"

"So many complicated problems, I really don't know how you deal with them." Sun Zhengyi sighed.

Tao Zhiming was taken aback for a moment, and understood what he was talking about, so he started to tease: "When Sun Jun was betrayed by his subordinates, didn't he also persevere?"

When Sun Zhengyi heard this, he immediately said sincerely: "If it wasn't for Tao Jun's help, I probably would have only believed in my heart that I could succeed. I will always remember Tao Jun's kindness to Softbank!"

Tao Zhiming is taller, so he just laughed and patted him on the shoulder: "Let's continue working hard together! Let's sit and talk."

The tea room was seated, Fukaya Riko, as the "representative director", was listening here and making tea at the same time.

Listening to them recalling the process of their acquaintance, Fukaya Riko was surprised to find that Tao Zhiming was so optimistic about this ugly man many years ago for no reason.

Of course, it's not really without reason, but for Tao Zhiming at the time, investing 20 billion yen in him actually accounted for a considerable proportion of wealth.Even if it was for the "Tokyo Land War", the 20 billion yen spent on Softbank seemed to have no effect on the outcome of the land war.

It seemed like he really supported his cause.

After that, he even helped him complete the listing in the United States.

Sun Zhengyi is worthy of being Sun Zhengyi, drinking tea, letting go of the conversation, and the passion rose again.

Tao Zhiming was very surprised: "You still maintain a good relationship with some professors in laboratories in the United States?"

"Of course!" Sun Zhengyi vowed.

"Civilian development of military technology..." Tao Zhiming seemed to ponder.

He said that he has a good relationship with others, as long as the money is in place, he can get the latest technology authorization as soon as possible. Tao Zhiming only listens to three points.

I'm afraid it's just a relationship between a classmate's mentor's senior brother's junior, and Sun Zhengyi can also boast that he is a close buddy and a friend who forgets the year.

But I don’t know if Sun Zhengyi was still struggling to compete in the domestic market, or he did try to enter new fields in the process but failed. Tao Zhiming doesn’t remember Sun Zhengyi’s successful measures in this Internet wave. .

In addition to investing in Internet companies with coins.

Hearing what he is saying now, it is clear that he wants to take the opportunity of becoming an agent of Cisco Neon to further expand his status as a software distributor in the past to the field of computer hardware and system integration.

He even claimed that Sony and Toshiba must not be able to beat him in terms of personal computers.

Listening to Sun Zhengyi's impassioned statement that Neon will use a large number of personal computers and information systems for office work in the future, Tao Zhiming felt a little weird.

If he knew that the fax machine is still popular 30 years after the neon lights, I don't know what expression he would have.

However, the personal computer market in Fat House is really good, and it feels like a game console per capita. Overnight Internet cafes have also become the first choice for social animals who cannot afford apartment rent.

The problem is that Sony and Toshiba's performance on PC is not bad, they have made a lot of money for a few years, and they have also led some design trends.

Tao Zhiming said earnestly: "Sun Jun, entering the hardware field, that's a different way to play."

"I understand!" Sun Zhengyi said confidently, "In terms of technology, you know, I am an inventor! There is absolutely no problem! In terms of manufacturing, didn't you already cooperate with Takeda-kun on karaoke karaoke machines? The reason is the same. It is indeed a new challenge for me to involve product development, design, manufacturing, and marketing. But please believe me! I am the most likely person for Neon to succeed in this matter!"

Fukani Riko looked at Tao Zhiming, wondering how he would react to Sun Zhengyi's enthusiasm.

Tao Zhiming was silent for a moment before laughing: "Since we want to do it, let's do it with a big ticket."

Sun Zhengyi looked at him, his passion was restrained, and he was a little confused: "How big is it?"

Tao Zhiming smiled like a big bad wolf and an old fox, his eyes narrowed slightly: "Do you want to play investment funds?"

……

Venture capital is not a new concept, but at the beginning of the 90s, if you said how well-known it was, it would be disrespectful to history.

This kind of industry once developed well in the 60s and [-]s after its germination, but it was hit hard by the economic recession after the oil crisis.

Now, in fact, it is still at a low ebb.

However, with the collapse of Hongsu, the United States has invested in high technology in the military direction in the past few decades, and can begin to release some technologies into the civilian field.Research costs have long been borne by defense expenditures, and the dividends of the information technology era are already brewing.

So since the beginning of the year, the U.S. stock market has performed better and better this year and has entered a recovery.Correspondingly, the venture capital industry is about to usher in a new era.

In the past few years, the software industry has always been a field favored by venture capital, and Masayoshi Son is no stranger to this.

But he never expected Tao Zhiming to play so big.

The night wind was very cool, but Sun Zhengyi felt that he needed to blow it more.

It's overheating and needs to cool down.

Seeing his expression, his wife couldn't help asking worriedly: "Is it not going well?"

She knew that the main purpose of her husband's visit today was to obtain financing for the company's new project.

Seeing her husband's dumbfounded look now, she was naturally worried about the result of their discussion in the tea room as she was just chatting at the dinner table.

Sun Zhengyi shook his head blankly.

"...It doesn't matter. With Chairman Tao's ability, it is a good thing that the inappropriateness of the plan is pointed out."

"No..." Sun Zhengyi took a deep breath, "It went smoothly...too smooth...too outrageous..."

"...Huh?" The wife was dumbfounded.

Sun Zhengyi's eyes flickered, and his blood surged again: "That's right! Although he has a lot of talents under his command, I am the most suitable person in the high-tech field of computer!"

"What is it exactly?"

The driver had already driven the car over, and Sun Zhengyi said excitedly: "Temporarily keep it secret! If this matter succeeds, I will be the godfather of the industry in the future!"

My wife's eyes are wide open, what do you mean?

Sun Zhengyi really became a riddle man.

But this was a last resort, he could only suppress his excitement.

When he got home, as soon as the light in the study was turned on, he locked the door behind him, excitedly studied and planned.

After all, the plan Tao Zhiming told him is so big that it is related to the actions of the cabinet and the economic strategy for the next few decades.

Therefore, it needs to be discussed with the cabinet first, and I am afraid that it needs to be discussed with many big figures.

But Sun Zhengyi believes that this matter is reliable.

After all, it was conceived by Tao Zhiming, and he was going to contribute money to promote it.

The first phase lasts for five years, and the total scale reaches 5 trillion yen "New Millennium Vision Investment Fund".

5 trillion yen!

Sun Zhengyi just wants to get another financing of about 10 billion yuan to start a new plan.

Now, the height of this plan has far exceeded his imagination.

……

For the new problems arising from off-book debts, for Miyazawa Kiji and others, the core is not money, but the risk of future votes.

The smooth implementation of the plan actually requires the outbreak of these bad debts to promote the bankruptcy of some private financial associations and even banks with rotten foundations.

Therefore, Tao Zhiming is not willing to directly digest these bad debts, and temporarily breathe a sigh of relief for the bottomless pit of Shanyi Bonds.

The [-] billion yuan of funds he promised was used to directly buy the bottom and take over the market.

The venue for the re-discussion was placed at the Financial Security Research Center of the Ministry of Finance.

Akito Yamamoto is here, Kazuki Hanzawa is here, Taro Hashimoto and several other cabinet ministers related to the economy, and Mie Nofu are here.

"...The problem is not what kind of results will be suffered by ordinary citizens who will be affected by the financial rectification, but what kind of future we can give them, and how to ensure that this future can be expected!"

Tao Zhiming sat there, and naturally someone helped him switch the content on the projection screen.

"New Millennium Vision Investment Fund!" Tao Zhiming introduced calmly, "This is part of the strategy of 'building the country with science and technology' and 'strengthening the country with culture' proposed by Haibu Sang at the beginning. It was officially launched by the current cabinet and it can also reflect the policy. continuity."

Tao Zhiming looked at Hashimoto Taro: "This point will be very important in the future."

Hashimoto Taro nodded slightly, knowing what he meant.

Impression points, as long as it really lands and benefits some citizens, it will be discovered in the future that the foundation for the opposition party to come to power to overthrow the predecessors may be fooling around.

After Tao Zhiming finished the first point, he continued: "The fund is not in the form of loans, but in the form of venture capital to support the applicant's new project. Therefore, even if some small and medium-sized clubs are unable to repay the current loan If you go bankrupt, as long as you can pass the audit of the fund, you will still have funds to start over, and you don’t need to bear the pressure of repaying the loan in the next few years, you only need to fight for future profits.”

Akito Yamamoto thought silently: Even if these small and medium-sized clubs are now bankrupt and the equipment and other assets are liquidated, as long as the team is still there and can get funds, they can still buy new equipment, lease new venues, and start over... …The only ones who swallowed those non-performing assets were the civil societies that lent out the loans, and the banks behind them.

"In order to promote this plan, the New Millennium Vision Investment Fund will also learn from the past model of the free creative space of dimensional culture, and purchase a batch of real estate that needs to be processed across the country and transform it into a club incubation park." Tao Zhiming introduced this risk The concept of investment and incubator, the concept of shared office is undoubtedly quite advanced at this time, "Even if you are alone, you can start over. In the incubation park, there will be an atmosphere of hope."

Kazuki Hansawa looked at the hand-drawn imaginary picture on the projection screen, and opened his mouth slightly.

"The New Millennium Vision Investment Fund will focus on investing in the fields of technology and culture. The threshold is naturally relatively high. But it is matched with education. The times are changing. There are not as many job opportunities as there were in the bubble era, and the competition is more intense. In order to invest in the future , there will be an upsurge in self-improvement and learning new skills. New tools such as computers and software, languages ​​of other countries, new craft training for manufacturing workers... as long as they are supplemented by corresponding incentive policies, the New Millennium Vision Investment Fund can also support A large number of clubs engaged in education, like sponges, absorb young people who are temporarily unable to find jobs, as well as unemployed people. In the process of learning, they will always maintain hope for the future."

Hashimoto Taro frowned, but did not comment for the time being.

Tao Zhiming crossed his hands on the table and smiled: "I know, it sounds like they are just giving hope. If we really want to revive so many ordinary citizens affected by this financial rectification, we still need new job opportunities. Stable Remuneration. Therefore, the New Millennium Vision Investment Fund must let everyone see the actual effect, at least within one year after its launch.”

Hashimoto Taro nodded, this was exactly what he was concerned about.

Undoubtedly, the New Millennium Vision investment fund he mentioned can set up a number of incubation parks, and naturally buy some real estate that needs to be disposed of selectively.The real estate that was bought was of course the non-performing assets of his alliance in the big plan, to relieve their pressure.

But the ultimate problem to be solved is still a large number of ordinary citizens who will be in desperation because of the financial rectification.

Tao Zhiming's bottom line seems to be that those who are unable to repay their debts must go bankrupt first.But after bankruptcy, he came in charge of giving many people a new way of life.

Just relying on venture capital to support them to start a new business, how effective can it be?After all, these people need a life, a place to live, food to buy, and a family to support.

What's more, how many people who have been hit by bankruptcy dare to rebound?

Although venture capital does not need to pay back the money, it only needs to be responsible for creating profits for investors in the future.But what about after the business fails?

Besides, this New Millennium Vision Investment Fund will definitely not be a philanthropist.The projects they are willing to invest in must go through some screening.So what about the projects that are not selected?
