Chapter 1686 Competition Between All Parties 1

In fact, sometimes, Iwasaki Koki is also very helpless. In order to balance the interests of various house owners, my father would choose to compromise on many things. Even if you know that doing so will not be beneficial to the development of the group, you must still implement it. There are too many members in the family, and they cannot have unified thinking on many things.

If you don't break it or establish it, let the family members suffer some losses so that they can gain more power in the future. Many times Iwasaki Koki is really envious of Bao Zixuan. There is only one man in the family. As long as it is a decision, he can make the decision directly without discussing it with anyone!

But looking at it from another angle, without family support, he might be nothing. There is only one Bao Zixuan in the world, and it is one that cannot be copied; there are advantages and disadvantages, it all depends on how to balance it.

Iwasaki Koki said with a smile: "Have Blackstone Fund and Black Cloud Group made any big moves since Bao Zixuan came to Japan?"

Hearing this, his subordinates immediately became alert. After all, in the past two days, Blackstone Fund's sales of real estate have caused a huge sensation throughout Japan. Although stocks are insider trading, confidentiality is only for ordinary people. Mitsubishi Group investigators can still get information easily; this is also their base camp.

The subordinates quickly reported: "Everything is normal in the Black Cloud Group and there is no action. However, the Blackstone Fund has been operating frequently; it has sold almost all real estate in the Setagaya area, and there is basically not much left."

"At the same time, it also reached internal transactions with several Wall Street fund companies and sold more than 10 billion US dollars of stocks to them. Combined with the fact that it has been selling off Japanese related industries in the past six months, it seems that it wants to withdraw from Japan."

Iwasaki Koki asked himself that he knew Bao Zixuan quite well, and of course he knew what kind of character this boy was. A few years ago, through technology patents, we desperately exchanged Japanese real estate; in the past few years, we have actually made a lot of money. Now that he has sold them all, he is probably the only one who has the courage. After all, the Japanese stock market and property market are soaring at the moment, and selling may mean reduced profits.

But then again, investment is risky; does it smell different? And just after coming to Japan, I will meet the president of the Bank of Japan. If he says that everything is fine here, no one will believe it.

Koki Iwasaki is mainly responsible for the Mitsubishi machinery manufacturing field and does not have much involvement in its real estate and financial investments. After all, it was someone else's sphere of influence, and it was not easy for him to cross the line. In addition, I have been in the Middle East some time ago, so I naturally don’t pay that much attention to Japan.

But now that he learned that Bao Zixuan had begun selling off his assets in Japan on a large scale, he suddenly felt that the situation was not good. Mr. Bao bought many company stocks and real estate. But compared to Mitsubishi Group; there is still a big gap. As a veteran Japanese powerhouse, even if he only buys one property every year, it is estimated that there are hundreds of properties now.

Of course this is just a metaphor, the real situation is much more than this.

Bao Zixuan is such a smart person that he has already begun to sell off his real estate and stocks in Japan. In addition, he also met with the president of the Bank of Japan, indicating that the Bank of Japan will take necessary measures.

As a Japanese, Iwasaki Koki also does not want Japanese housing prices to be too high. Seeing that the family's worth is increasing every day, this does not do much good for the powerful manufacturing industry. The rise in real estate prices means that all costs will increase; it is very detrimental to exports. For Japan, this can even be said to be a disaster!

But he couldn't decide these things alone, and other members of the family would also object. After all, isn't it a good thing that the Iwasaki family's wealth has increased?

But Bao Zixuan has already started selling on a large scale, and he doesn't even want to keep it at all. This means that Japanese real estate will not have much room for growth.

As the world's richest man, he has a very keen sense of business.

Koki Iwasaki: "How many stocks and real estate do we still hold?"

After hearing this, the subordinates certainly understood what it meant. The boss asked about how many properties he owns. As for the entire Iwasaki family, even as the successor, he cannot interfere at will.

Fortunately, his subordinates were well prepared and said directly: "Currently, the owner owns three buildings and 62 properties in Japan. In addition to Mitsubishi headquarters, the value of the stocks held is about 500 billion yen."

The Iwasaki family has already carried out many divisions within the family. Of course, it is stipulated that family members cannot sell the Mitsubishi Group shares they hold to outsiders. As the heir to the head of the family, he will naturally receive more property distribution than other members.

Many chaebols in Japan are like this, but they don't want to expose their wealth to the spotlight, so they don't enter the Forbes rich list.

Iwasaki Koki: "Starting tomorrow, I will sell off all real estate and stocks under my personal name. Except for the place where I live now, don't keep anything else."

A large Japanese family has its own set of unique skills in training its core subordinates. Therefore, there is absolutely no doubt about loyalty. As long as it is an order issued by the master, they will definitely implement it resolutely.

Perhaps seeing that his subordinates were confused, Koki Iwasaki, who was not supposed to explain, seemed to be interested; he smiled and said: "Bao Zixuan is such a smart person. It can be said that no one can control the world economy."

"You didn't go to the Middle East with me this time. It's normal that you don't understand many things. This guy's influence and strength in the Middle East can be said to be unmatched by anyone."

"There have been many media reports before that as long as he is willing, he can even build a railway from Tel Aviv to Baghdad. I was a little skeptical about this; but this trip to the Middle East made me change my mind."

"As long as people are willing, they can really do it."

"He can handle such a complex situation in the Middle East with ease and make very accurate judgments; Japan, on the other hand, is even less able to handle it."

"This sell-off is not about leaving Japan, which is our roots after all; it's just about not wanting to take a loss."

In fact, there was no need to explain. The subordinates just had to follow the orders. It's just that this time it's a sell-off of Japanese domestic industries, which can easily cause misunderstandings. Moreover, in modern society, there is no clear concept of domestic slaves; most of the time, they are still treated as ordinary subordinates. Of course, in terms of trust, there will definitely be a tendency.

The subordinates did not expect that Iwasaki Koki would explain so much, and they really didn't know what to say for a while.

Perhaps seeing what his subordinates were thinking, Iwasaki Koki continued: "Don't notify other members of the family this time. If the Japanese stock market and property market continue to rise after the sell-off, we will be the sinners."

"I feel that with only half of the funds we can get from selling now in two years' time, we can buy back all the properties we sold. This is business, and Bao Zixuan probably values ​​this and is so determined. "

The subordinates heard that they should not notify family members, which meant that they should not report to the head of the family. Having been with Iwasaki Koki for so many years, he still saw this very clearly. The head of the family does not only have one son, but often also has to take into account the interests of other sons.

It is impossible for Koki Iwasaki to take advantage of everything. This is human nature.

After his men left, Iwasaki Koki fell into deep thought. He also gambled again, after all, his own wealth and life were at stake. If the Japanese stock market and property market continue to soar, other members of the family will be stronger than him.

Strength represents the right to speak. Once the strength is inferior to other members, the right to speak will naturally weaken. It will not be that easy to inherit the position of head of the family by then.

But if the bet is correct, other members of the family will surely suffer heavy losses. Koki Iwasaki didn't know everything about some of the small actions of family members behind their backs, but he also knew about them.

In order to enhance their strength, many people play with leverage thoroughly. You may be able to make more money by doing this, but if you make a mistake in judgment, the real estate and stocks you purchased will fall significantly, but it will be unbearable.

Now I just hope that Bao Zixuan will not disappoint, otherwise we will have to start from scratch. This doesn't seem to matter at all, as it has basically established a firm foothold in the Middle East; in the British aircraft manufacturing company, other personnel cannot get involved at all. Besides, after knowing each other for so long, it seems that the young man has never made a mistake in judgment!

As for the Wall Street fund companies, they are holding a celebration banquet. No one expected that Blackstone Fund would sell shares of Japanese companies; of course, there were doubts, but seeing the Japanese people's emotions like chicken blood, it suddenly felt like nothing. Bao Zixuan may have been the richest man in the world for too long and has no ambition to make progress.

This group of people is not short of money, and they all came to Japan alone; in the bustling Tokyo, the nightlife is naturally extremely rich. In addition, there is no need to go to work tomorrow; for many people, it is destined to be a sleepless night!
