The Kyoto Bubble Era: Starting from the Sale of Hundreds of Millions of Properties

Chapter 260
Ito Wanlihua quickly read the pile of documents and materials Kitahara Sosuke gave her, and she had studied the special plan proposed by Kitahara Sosuke in depth.

Regarding high-tech and new service industries, I don’t know why President Kitahara is so sure that these two industries can grow from scratch in an ancient city like Kyoto.

But the information given now seems to have nothing to do with the two emerging industries that he highly recommends.

Why does Nintendo seem to be a company that makes games?

"Then, President Kitahara, aren't we going to make a new business plan? What does it have to do with this Nintendo?" Ito Wanlihua's little head was full of question marks.

In her opinion, in order to succeed in these industries, it is necessary to contact government agencies as soon as possible to open up some powers to those high-tech clubs that can settle in Kyoto, at least not to be resisted by local people, and the new service industry requires Dongsan and Those temple sects communicated vigorously and made them willing to open up certain permissions. Only in this way can the project be successfully promoted.

But looking at Kitahara Sosuke's appearance, it seems that he didn't pay attention to this problem at all, but instead set his sights on the new market!

"That's right, are you finished? Let's go after we finish. Let's talk about it on the way." Kitahara Sosuke nodded, took his briefcase and walked out.

In order to do business, he specially bought a Mercedes-Benz SUV, otherwise he would be too eye-catching to drive a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur.

Sitting in the co-pilot seat, Marika Ito covered her too-short skirt with her hands, and listened carefully to Sosuke Kitahara's teachings. Unlike Norika Fujiwara, who likes to infer other things from one example and was more frizzy in the early stage, she was very stable in her work , has a learning attitude that does not match her age, but her spirituality is not as good as Fujiwara Norika, probably because she became a monk halfway through, and she has only a half-knowledge about many financial problems.

Kitahara Sosuke drove to the southern district of Kyoto, first to see the residence of Ito Marika, the two were friends before, and now they are superiors and subordinates, Kitahara Sosuke couldn't bear to see her so downcast, one is for Go meet Hiroshi Yamauchi, President of Nintendo.

The red and white machine launched by Nintendo in 1983 allowed it to gain a firm foothold in the gaming industry, and then the GAME BOY released in 1989 was an epoch-making game console, which can be seen in major bookstores and electronic product stores at this time The best-selling GB game console, being able to own such a game console was the greatest honor for young people at that time.

However, the 90s coincided with the bursting of the bubble economy. Because of Sosuke Kitahara's intervention, the timeline also shifted slightly. The Japanese political landscape changed, and the Shin Abe family collapsed. There is no longer any club rising, but now there is the sudden emergence of Beiyuan Investment.

Kitahara Sosuke began to integrate the promising industries in the future at the fastest speed, and indirectly promoted the development speed of the electronic technology industry. The pressure of the bubble economy and the emergence of competing products made Nintendo feel a crisis that should not have occurred.

After many inquiries, he confirmed one thing——

Nintendo was unable to independently complete the production, sale and promotion of new game consoles. Their funds were extremely tight, and the cooperative bank Fuji Bank, which had a very close relationship with them before, encountered an unprecedented financial scandal crisis.

A few days ago, Toru Hashimoto, the president of Fuji Bank, was summoned by the Diet and made an apology, publicly apologizing for the corruption and financial scandals within Fuji Bank. The Industrial Bank of Japan, which also broke out a huge financial scandal, has been nationalized and auctioned off Invested in Beiyuan.

The prelude to the financial collapse has just begun, and many people have not yet realized how terrifying the spreading crisis is.

Fuji Bank's capital reserve is not enough, and now it has added a bunch of false deposit certificates. After repeated bank runs, their business volume had to shrink, and Nintendo was abandoned because of this!

Compared with this dispensable and seemingly extremely risky investment, Fuji Bank is more inclined to the financing business of real industries such as agriculture and industry.

Without the support of Fuji Bank, Nintendo may completely collapse and be unable to release new game consoles. With the exit of GB and red and white machines, their profits will drop sharply.

And Kitahara Sosuke, who is familiar with these histories, knows that the new generation of game consoles that Nintendo is secretly developing and requires a lot of money to prepare for release is the Super Nintendo (SFC) that will completely change the entire industry ecology!
The Super Nintendo, which was supposed to be launched at the end of November 90, did not appear on the market, and the keen Kitahara Sosuke caught this element!
Nintendo Headquarters Building, 11-1 Kamitoba Hokatecho, Minami-ku, Kyoto.

After Kitahara Sosuke took Ito Wanlihua into the building and showed the appointment letter and business card, the front desk lady took them to the president's office in surprise.

The youngest vice president of Tosan, a man called Osakaの狼, standing in front of him alive, not on the TV, is quite shocking.

At this time, Hiroshi Yamauchi was troubled by the problem of funds. When he saw the two people who pushed the door to enter, he quickly stood up and greeted him: "This is the first time we meet, please give me your advice, President Kitahara, I am Hiroshi Yamauchi."

"Hello, President Yamauchi." Kitahara Sosuke sat down with a smile, and took out a document from his briefcase, "I have read your club's financial statement and annual report in detail, and there is nothing wrong with it. I also play GB from time to time, it’s really a very good game machine.”

"Haha, I didn't expect that President Kitahara is also a game fan. I said that it is impossible for a person who is interested in the electronics industry not to play games." Hiroshi Yamauchi is obviously very confident in his company's signature products, and his words also revealed A hint of wind said, "Speaking of which, it is really difficult to make electronic products in Kyoto. When the company was first established, my grandfather decided to put the headquarters building here because he settled in Kyoto. Unexpectedly, a hundred years later, this has become our largest today. problem."

"Oh?" Kitahara Sosuke showed an interested expression.

"President Kitahara seems to have just come to Kyoto not long ago? Here, there are too many celebrities and rich people who have settled here. They are very repulsed by electronic products, saying that they are foreign evils and will pollute the beauty of Kyoto! We at Nintendo have been developing video game consoles for so many years. The sales volume in the city is very high, but we are prohibited from opening shops in Kyoto, not only that, but every now and then, people from the Financial Services Department will come to check the accounts to make trouble, and then there are the Trade and Industry Department, the taxation department, etc., just want to force us away!" Yamauchi Bo's stomach was full of bitterness.

He also investigated Beiyuan Sosuke and Beiyuan Investment in advance, knowing that he acquired Softbank Technology and registered a Beiyuan Technology because of this, he knew that this young man's ideas were different, forward-looking, and communicable.

Nintendo is having a bad time in Kyoto, but they have no ability to move away. After all, it has been established here for a hundred years, and if they move to other cities, the "protection fee" they have to pay is enough for them to have a headache.

With the advent of the economic winter, the club became more difficult. Fuji Bank's divestment broke the capital chain, resulting in the inability to produce new game consoles.

Naturally, he would not tell Kitahara Sosuke all of these problems lurking underwater, for fear that it would affect his financing.

But this is exactly what Kitahara Sosuke wanted.

While you are sick, I will kill you!

This time is the best time to take advantage of it.

After listening to Hiroshi Yamauchi's cry, Kitahara Sosuke smiled and said, "Indeed, it will take a long process to start the electronics industry in Kyoto."

"In short, our club really needs a sum of funds right now. President Kitahara, can you disclose the approximate amount of financing that Dongsan Industrial will provide us this time?" Hiroshi Yamauchi couldn't help it.

The Super Nintendo has been stuck for so long, and he feels distressed.

"0."

"?"

"Tosan is not optimistic about Nintendo's prospects. If it's just a loan of tens of millions of yen, I will try my best to get it approved. But tens of millions of yen can't solve Nintendo's urgent needs at all, right?" Kitahara Sosuke smiled smiled.

Hiroshi Yamauchi immediately nodded in agreement: "It's not enough, at least, at least 5 million yen will be up! Does Dongsan have no idea of ​​this cooperation at all?"

He is also aware of the current market situation of the domestic electronics industry. Mitsubishi Electric, who had previously cooperated with them in making video games, has terminated their contract with them. was sacrificed.

"Tosan can't provide much money here, but we, Beiyuan Shenlang, can provide money to assist Nintendo."

"Beiyuan Shenlang? You mean the Beiyuan Shenlang Credit Bank under Beiyuan Investment, which has just been transformed by Nikko?" Hiroshi Yamauchi asked doubtfully.

Kitahara Sosuke nodded: "That's right."

"Then how much loan can Beiyuan Shenlang provide us? As for the credit bank, the reserve fund is not much, and the interest is also higher than that of the bank."

"Starting at 20 billion."

"20 billion what? 20 billion!!!"

"Yes, we could even give Nintendo more loans, but if my request is that you suspend the Super Nintendo project you are currently working on and focus on other types of electronic products, would you like it?"

"Suspend the Super Nintendo project? How is that possible! This is our effort! Absolutely not! No, President Kitahara, how do you know about the Super Nintendo project???"

Hiroshi Yamauchi looked puzzled, from surprise to doubt, looking at the smiling young man in front of him, he always felt something was wrong.
