Traveling Through the Tokyo Bubble Era

Chapter 446 A Hero

After recalling the history of football development in Sendai area.

Hideki Hanyu had to admit that there was really no sports soil in Sendai.

Not to mention football, the most prolific baseball team in the Tohoku region is the Tohoku Rakuten Golden Eagles.

It was also established in 2004 by Neon’s largest shopping website ‘Rakuten Market’.

Let me say here that this Lotte is not the same as the Lotte in South Korea.

Looking at Yuichi Kanaya who was looking at him expectantly, Hideki Hanyu coughed lightly.

"Congressman Kanaya, to be honest, due to Tohoku Kasei's relationship, I have been quite short of funds recently. I also relied on loans to acquire Manchester United. I am really powerless to promote the development of football in Sendai."

Hideki Hanyu declined politely.

If you want to build a football team in Sendai, you need to invest in more than just the team itself.

Not to mention the training base requires investment, there is not even a ready-made professional football stadium.

Sendai later became the baseball stadium of the Rakuten Golden Eagles, which was built as early as 1950.

But the football stadium was only built in the late 1990s.

The level of attention is not a level at all.

If he started investing from scratch, the cost would be too much.

As far as football’s audience in Neon is concerned, it won’t be possible to recover the money within a few decades.

If he really wanted to start a football team in Neon, he might as well wait for the J-League to be established and its operations become stable, then find a poorly managed team to acquire.

Although running a team on your own turf is definitely better than going somewhere else.

But if the price is too high, then he doesn't want this benefit.

Seeing that Hanyu Hideki was not interested in investing in the football team, Kanaya Yuichi became anxious.

If Hideki Hanyu can invest, it will be a political achievement for him.

How could Yuichi Kanaya give up so easily? He even said, "President Hanyu, if you have financial difficulties, I can find a way to solve it. I think Sendai Bank will definitely be willing to help."

"Member Kanaya, if you want to build a professional football team, you need not only people, but at least a professional stadium that can sell tickets. I can't set up a football team and borrow the stadium of some university.

But if we build a stadium, the cost is not a small amount. I have nothing to mortgage now. "

Anything without collateral is of course fake.

After the acquisition of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. is completed, part of the funds can be recovered from the sale of the military supplies part, and many loans can also be transferred to Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

But he would only do this if he was stupid to mortgage his own assets to build a stadium for Sendai City.

Of course, Hanyu Hideki didn't talk nonsense, at least now he really has nothing to use as collateral.

Except for the large amount of funds on Jinbo Eiichi's side.

When Kanaya Yuichi heard Hanyu Hideki's explanation, he knew that he was right.

It's easy to ask people to establish a football team, but it is really difficult to build a professional football field.

But Kanaya Yuichi was unwilling to give up this idea.

His mind started racing, trying to figure out how to solve this problem.

After a while, he suddenly opened his eyes wide.

An idea came to mind.

It can not only solve the construction of the stadium, but also help Hanyu Hideki save money.

Kanaya Yuichi said immediately, "I have an idea that can perfectly solve President Hanyu's difficulties."

"Representative Kanaya, please speak."

Hanyu Hideki also wanted to know what the other party had come up with.

“My idea is that President Hanyu can sign a special contract with the bank.

The stadium was built with funding from the bank. After President Hanyu's team is established, he only needs to pay rent to the bank every year to use the stadium. After the lease is fulfilled for a certain number of years, the stadium will automatically belong to the team.

What does President Hanyu think of this idea? "

After Kanaya Yuichi finished speaking, he looked at Hanyu Hideki with bright eyes.

hehe--

Hideki Hanyu wanted to say, you are really a clever little guy.

This lease contract is, after all, a loan contract.

It is equivalent to the bank building a mortgage itself and then lending it to Hanyu Hideki as collateral for the loan.

The rent paid by Hanyu Hideki will definitely be higher than the construction cost in the end, and it will also come with bank interest, which is equivalent to repaying the loan in disguise.

Hanyu Hideki guessed that banks would agree with this idea.

After all, what Neon Bank is most worried about now is lending.

But, Hanyu Hideki will not interfere with the matter of finding a bank.

He smiled and said to Yuichi Kanaya, "Congressman Kanaya, I think your idea is very good. If you can find a bank willing to cooperate, I wouldn't mind contributing to Sendai's sports industry."

Kanaya Yuichi is also a human spirit, so he can naturally understand Hanyu Hideki's meaning.

The other party is willing to start a football team, but only if he takes care of the bank first.

Kanaya Yuichi had already been mentally prepared for this.

He believed he could convince the bank.

And for him, as long as the matchmaking is successful, political achievements will be achieved.

The performance of Hideki Hanyu's football team in the later period and whether the bank loan can be recovered have nothing to do with him.

Kanaya Yuichi said immediately, "President Hanyu, please wait for my good news. Time is tight, so I won't disturb President Hanyu much."

"Congressman Kanaya, walk slowly."

Hideki Hanyu stood up and sent Yuichi Kanaya out.

Next, he had lunch at home.

Just when he was about to take a rest and relieve the jet lag, Yada Yoshihiro arrived with Nakano Shigemasa.

In desperation, Hanyu Hideki could only meet with Nakano Shigemasa first.

Although his meeting with Nakano Shigemasa is very important to Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

But the meeting process is very simple.

We are all smart people, and by the time we click on some words, we already understand what they mean.

Hanyu Hideki said that after he takes over Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., Nakano Shigemasa can continue to serve as president.

At this time, Nakano Shigemasa, who was helpless, also offered his loyalty.

These things are accomplished in just a few sentences.

On the contrary, Hanyu Hideki spent a lot of time learning about the internal situation of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. and its complicated relationship with the local area from Nakano Shigemasa.

After all, there are some things that cannot be seen from Yada Yoshihiro's investigation data alone.

Nakano Shigemasa knows everything he knows and talks about it endlessly.

Hanyu Hideki quickly learned about the internal power profile of Tohoku Chemical Co., Ltd.

Overall, there is definitely trouble.

But the big problem that could shake the entire club cannot be seen yet.

The two talked until the afternoon, and it was time to make an appointment with Mitsui representative of the board of directors.

Hanyu Hideki looked at Nakano Shigemasa and said directly, "President Nakano, come with me to meet with Mitsui's board of directors representatives."

"Yes, Mr. Hanyu." Nakano Shigemasa replied.

Just listening to that steady voice makes people feel very reliable.

Although he addressed himself as sir, his attitude towards the president was the same.

Hideki Hanyu has indeed not signed the acquisition contract.

But there are only a dozen hours left before signing.

And through the conversation just now, for the time being, Nakano Shigemasa also quite recognizes Hanyu Hideki as the future boss.

After all, Hanyu Hideki showed respect for him, and he didn't look like the kind of young second-generation ancestor who would give random orders when his brain was twitching.

At least, it is better than those shareholders who are about to call their last day.

And now, Hanyu Hideki is willing to take him to meet Mitsui's representative on the board of directors.

It also proves Hanyu Hideki’s sincerity in promising him to stay as president.

The car was on its way to an appointment with a Mitsui representative.

In the carriage, Hanyu Hideki glanced at Nakano Shigemasa sitting next to him.

At present, it is in his interest to choose this person as president.

However, apart from promising the other party to stay as president, he had no plans to expand his internal strength within Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. with the help of the other party.

In doing so, his influence certainly increased.

But it is also equivalent to indirectly increasing the power of Nakano Shigemasa and weakening the strength of other forces.

The consequence is that the balance of power within the company will be broken, eventually leading to one company becoming dominant.

Just because Nakano Shigemasa listens to him now does not mean that he will listen to him after he takes over the power.

If he took over such a large company halfway and thought he could control it just by relying on a large number of shares, he would be too naive.

Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish.

Now, what he wants is stability, what he wants is to slowly encroach and slowly control the entire enterprise.

Instead of impulsively breaking everything and carrying out drastic reforms to the enterprise.

The previous shareholders who sold their shares are a lesson learned from the past.

Thinking of this, a person came to mind.

The Suzuki Kyoka who asked him for help.

The other party's father, who was still in jail at this time, seemed to be a middle-level manager with considerable prestige in the company.

It seems that I can try to get in touch with this person.

Hanyu Hideki was thinking in his mind about what to do after taking over Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

The vehicle has arrived at its destination unknowingly.

The hotel where he held his last autograph session was owned by Seibu Group and Yoshiaki Tsutsumi.

In a private room, Hanyu Hideki met the Mitsui representative of the board of directors.

The other party had worked at Tohoku Chemical Co., Ltd. for many years, so he naturally recognized Nakano Shigemasa, the president.

Therefore, when he saw Nakano Shigemasa and Hanyu Hideki appearing together, his expression immediately became a little strange.

After a moment, the representative sighed with a smile on his face.

"Originally, in addition to communicating about military supplies transactions, I came here this time to give Chairman Hanyu some suggestions about Tohoku Chemicals Co., Ltd., but now it seems that is not necessary."

While the representative was speaking, he was also feeling emotional in his heart.

Hideki Hanyu, a young man who started from scratch and became a hero in a short period of time, is indeed not an ordinary person.

Before the deal was concluded, the former president was taken under his wing.

Now it seems that the word "ex" can be removed.

Fortunately, such characters were gathered into the Mitsui Foundation.

Don't look at the close relationship between the Daiichi Financial Group and Hanyu Hideki.

But Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. is easy to socialize with, and the previous trivial cooperation is nothing.

With the link of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., Hanyu Hideki will inevitably be labeled as the Mitsui Foundation.

To be honest, it is true.

Generally, if Mitsui Financial holds more than 10% of the shares, it is regarded as a joint company of the consortium.

In the joint companies of the original Mitsui Consortium, Mitsui Financial held a lot of shares, but it was not as large as Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

At this time, Hanyu Hideki was not qualified to participate in the Mitsui Foundation's 'Futaki Club', but the 'Gekyo Club' was enough.

Over the years, Hanyu Hideki is the only one who has become a joint member of the Mitsui Foundation so quickly without relying on marriage or voluntary prostitution.

Looking at the Mitsui representative with a complicated expression, Hideki Hanyu didn't know what the other person was thinking.

Even if he knew it, Hanyu Hideki would not have any idea.

After acquiring Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. and being labeled as the Mitsui Consortium, he had already anticipated this outcome.

And it's inevitable.

For the time being, this matter has done him more good than harm.

As for the future...

After a while, when the bubble bursts, these consortiums will face the third disaster after being split up by America after the war and the impact of emerging companies in the 1960s and 1970s.

In order to save their lives, core banks began to merge, and consortium companies also began to cross shareholdings.

There is me in you, and you are in me.

The original barriers between consortiums have become increasingly weak and blurred.

Immediately afterwards, with the rapid rise of a certain eastern power, traditional areas of advantage were continuously eroded, and important markets were lost one by one.

At that time, these guys will all be unlucky, and it's not certain who can rely on whom.

This meeting with the Mitsui representative was a bit confusing at the beginning.

But the process and ending were still very enjoyable.

The two parties reached a certain tacit understanding in advance regarding Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

After all, the Mitsui Group has no interest in intervening in management.

What they want to see is that Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.'s operations get back on track as soon as possible.

At the entrance of the hotel, Mitsui representatives saw Hideki Hanyu off.

"Mr. Hanyu, see you tomorrow."

"See you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye, Hanyu Hideki asked Nakano Shigemasa in the car, "What do you think about my selling the military industry."

In the chat just now, Hanyu Hideki and the Sankei representative had no intention of hiding anything from Nakano Shigemasa.

Therefore, after the acquisition, Nakano Shigemasa also knew all about the idea of ​​​​the glass munitions industry.

Nakano Shigemasa replied, "It is the fastest way to solve the problem."

"Haha, what else is there?" Hanyu Hideki asked with a chuckle.

"I didn't expect it at the moment." Nakano Shigemasa shook his head.

"Only by getting rid of the baggage can we make strides forward. Today is a time of great change. The energy crisis has brought us both trouble and opportunity. Sometimes we have to look further and have a bigger picture. Don't just Confined to the neon area."

Hanyu Hideki's words have profound meaning.

When Nakano Shigemasa heard this, he suddenly remembered an acquisition case that was about to be stopped before, but due to the influence of Mitsui directors, he returned to the negotiation table.

Husky Energy Canada.

For a moment, Nakano Shigemasa seemed to realize what Hanyu Hideki wanted to do.

His eyes suddenly became hot.

As a business manager, he is not only on the smooth side.

He also has the ambition to become bigger and stronger as an entrepreneur, as well as the ambition to span the world.

Seeing Nakano Shigemasa's expression finally changing, Hanyu Hideki laughed.

"Haha! I thought President Nakano was always so calm."

After smiling, he lowered his voice again.

"President Nakano, if you want to achieve all of this, please help Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. stabilize as soon as possible."

"I will, President Hanyu."

At this time, Nakano Shigemasa no longer cared that Hanyu Hideki had not signed.

The title of president came out of his mouth.

He had to admit that this president, who was more than twenty years younger than him, indeed had a unique and convincing charm.
-

August 3rd.

A large number of neon mainstream media gathered in Sendai City, inside the 21st floor headquarters building of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

Today, a major news that is enough to arouse the Northeast region and even the entire business community will be announced here.

At ten o'clock sharp, several senior executives of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. entered the press conference.

Several directors of Mitsui Financial Systems are represented.

There is current president Nakano Shigemasa.

There are also representatives of shareholders who are about to make deals.

and many more……

But after these senior executives of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., a person appeared immediately, which immediately caused a chaotic discussion and a continuous flash of lights.

Tall and straight figure, handsome and young facial features.

Under the gold-rimmed glasses, he has a gentle and elegant temperament.

And the gentle and sunny smile on his face.

When such a young man appears here, it always makes people feel as if he is a junior from a high-level position being brought to such an important occasion to see the world.

But all the media who have received the news know it.

This young man is today’s protagonist.

Compared with those TV dramas where idol stars play genius businessmen and domineering CEOs.

This young man has risen rapidly in just a few years, and now he has unexpectedly taken over Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

He is a real human being who is alive, unique and talented in existence and reality.

It can only be said that fictional stories require logic.

Reality, anything is possible.

And from today on, there will be one more high-ranking figure in Neon, at least in the Northeast region.

Hideki Hanyu...

Since then, female book fans who like each other can add a layer of domineering halo to their fantasies when they fantasize about meeting each other.

Under everyone's gaze, Hanyu Hideki's expression remained unchanged and he always smiled.

Next, President Shigemasa Nakano, as the spokesperson, personally presided over today's signing ceremony and press conference.

First, Hanyu Hideki and the original shareholder representatives signed and confirmed the contract in the presence of all media, reaching a blockbuster deal worth nearly one trillion yuan.

Of course, the on-site signing ceremony was only for the outside world to see.

In fact, they had already completed the formal signing before the press conference started.

When Hideki Hanyu held the contract and shook hands with the original shareholder representatives in front of the media box.

The flash turned the scene into daylight, and the shutter clicked one after another.

In the air, you can smell the smell of film being rolled rapidly.

When the two hands parted, the original shareholder representative sent blessings to the new owner of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. in the presence of everyone.

Next, the original shareholders left. Hideki Hanyu began to be interviewed by the media.

"Mr. Hanyu, for what purpose did you acquire Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.?"

Faced with this kind of question, Hanyu Hideki, who had already prepared a draft, opened his mouth to answer.

"As a Sendai person, I have witnessed a company that has been serving local people's livelihood since childhood in trouble, and it is my duty to help it as much as I can."

The answer was righteous, the tone was impassioned, and the words were full of positive energy, vividly showing a promising young man who enthusiastically wants to repay his hometown.

Of course, not to mention Hideki Hanyu, most of the media present believed this.

If you say you spend a little money to repay your hometown, you might still believe it.

But this kind of nearly trillion-dollar transaction...

Anyone with such good intentions would not be able to make the business so big.

"After becoming the controlling shareholder of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., Mr. Hanyu, what plans do you have for the development of the company? For example, how are you going to solve the series of problems that Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. has encountered recently?"

After formulaic questions, reporters immediately asked the questions they were most concerned about.

They have reported a lot about the troubles of Tohoku Chemical Co., Ltd.

Therefore, they are also fully aware of the difficulties Hanyu Hideki faced after acquiring this company.

They wanted to know whether this young man in his twenties, who had become a powerful figure at the top, would get carried away and make some irrational actions.

“As a junior, even though I have become the owner of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., I still have many things to learn from my seniors in the company.

However, I am fortunate to have the support of representatives from the board of directors of Mitsui Banking Corporation, Mitsui Life Insurance Co., Ltd., etc., so I still plan to do something to help Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. get out of the current predicament.

First of all, after I join the board of directors, the first thing I have to do is to help the club make a smooth transition and resume normal operations of the company as soon as possible.

I will retract my previous decision to treat club employees, stop internal layoffs, and restore everyone’s positions..."

As soon as Hanyu Hideki said this, the reporters on the scene suddenly became excited and quickly started recording.

Although Hideki Hanyu didn't say much, he revealed a lot.

First of all, although Hanyu Hideki is young, he does not have the enthusiasm to rise quickly after rising in status.

He did not behave in any irrational manner, his words and deeds were very mature, and he had no idea of ​​drastic reform of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

As for helping companies make a smooth transition and resume normal operations as soon as possible.

It can also be understood as slowly taking over control of the entire Tohoku Chemical Co., Ltd.

Although Hanyu Hideki's rise to fame was short-lived, many people know that he also has a certain foundation in the Tohoku region.

In the past few years, its subsidiaries have been building and acquiring factories in Miyagi County and surrounding areas, and they already have close interests with the local area.

Based on this, if we slowly take control of the entire Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., some problems may arise in the process.

But everyone believes that it only takes time for Hanyu Hideki to finally take control of the entire club.

At the same time, among the viewers who were watching the local TV broadcast, many former Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. employees who had lost their jobs due to layoffs cheered after hearing Hanyu Hideki's decision.

After all, although Neon's economy seems prosperous today, the burden placed on people at the bottom, especially those workers engaged in manufacturing, is slowly increasing.

When the main earner of a family loses his or her job, that is absolutely devastating to the neon family model.

Hanyu Hideki stopped layoffs and restored all laid off employees to their jobs, which was a life-saving rain for them.

Some employees even shouted "Long live Hideki Hanyu" on the spot.

Hanyu Hideki unexpectedly won the hearts of some employees without knowing it.

Among these people, Suzuki Kyoka, who had asked Hanyu Hideki for help, was prominently listed.

At first, she and her family were as happy as everyone else.

But immediately after, her mother said, "But your father is still in jail", which quickly made her expression darken.

Yes, her father is different from ordinary laid-off employees.

At the same time, Hanyu Hideki continued to speak.

"Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. will divest and sell off the military industry as soon as possible. From now on, it will focus on the field of people's livelihood. Its business scope will not be limited to Neon, but will look to the world..."

As soon as these words came out, ordinary people didn't think there was anything wrong.

It's nothing more than the new owner of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. adjusting its business and talking big words.

But the reporters recorded it even more vigorously.

How could they not know about the scandal of military orders?

When Hideki Hanyu divested himself of this part of the industry, he was completely cutting off his own strength. Instead of resolving the scandal, he directly chose to cut it all off and throw away the entire trouble.

As for big words like looking at the world, they just listen.

Anyway, no matter which new boss takes office, he will say something similar.

After Hanyu Hideki talked a lot, he accepted several interviews with media reporters and finally announced something.

That is Nakano Shigemasa continuing to serve as the president of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

Then, there is the process of the president accepting media interviews.

As for Hanyu Hideki, he never expressed any opinions. He sat there and concentrated on being an eye-catching male vase and improving the appearance of the management of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd.

After more than an hour, the entire press conference was finally over.

Hideki Hanyu did not stay at the club headquarters for long, but returned directly to the Hanyu family home.

Next, he has a meeting.

The Hanyu family.

Inside the huge empty living room with retro design.

Hanyu Hideki was wearing a black cloak and sitting on a cushion at the top of the wooden floor.

The old-fashioned person who used to supervise the work at the school construction site, Hanyu Enko, her younger brother Hideri Hanyu, and her younger sister Yui Hanyu were all wearing formal clothes and sitting on one side.

They witnessed the heads of subsidiaries of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., department heads, and regional heads from all over the country enter the living room one by one and say hello to Hanyu Hideki who was sitting in the first place.

The greetings from members of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. will be over.

There were also representatives from partners, political figures, parliamentary representatives from various Northeastern regions, as well as major forces and figures in other fields, who entered the living room to express congratulations to Hanyu Hideki.

The whole process seems simple, but the atmosphere is particularly grand.

Hanyu Hideki, who was sitting in the first place, was unsmiling and serious throughout the whole process.

The momentum was so great that the usually naughty younger brothers and sisters were so angry that they dared not show off.

And all this, in the eyes of the old-fashioned man, makes him look as if he was looking at the feudal lords who finally dominated a place in ancient times, accepting the loyal worship of their retainers and the congratulations of the major forces.

The Hanyu Hideki in front of him unknowingly became a hero who could influence a whole place.

It made everyone in the family feel extremely strange.

But when all the visits were over, the assistant informed Hanyu Hideki that no one would come in again.

Hanyu Hideki immediately said "Ouch", stood up and rubbed his legs.

He complained dissatisfiedly, "If I had known earlier, I shouldn't have listened to Nakano Shigemasa and held a private interview. My legs are numb from sitting there."

As he spoke, Hideki Hanyu tugged on the black cloak on his body, "This thing is too uncomfortable to wear. It's not acting. Why do you make it so exaggerated?"

After saying that, I wanted to take off my cloak.

Such words and such manner made the old-fashioned man's mouth twitch.

All the thoughts just now were instantly disillusioned.

Sure enough, he is still the same brat who is not stable at all!

Seeing that Hanyu Hideki finally became serious, Hanyu Yui, led by their brother, also gathered around Hanyu Hideki with playful smiles.

He said things like "Brother is so awesome today".

The old-fashioned guy had the urge to go up and hit the brat on the head.

But at this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

After hearing this, Hideki Hanyu hurriedly asked his younger brothers and sisters to prepare.

He also regained his posture of sitting upright.

But when he saw that the person walking in was Nakano Shigemasa, his aura instantly relaxed.

After getting up, he pulled the other party and asked, "Have all the guests sent away?"

"Sent away." Nakano Shigemasa replied.

"Fortunately, I built a big house for my family before, otherwise there would be no room to complete President Nakano's design today." Hanyu-san complained.

Nakano Shigemasa ignored the boss's complaints and said calmly, "There is always a way."

Hideki Hanyu said, "Well, I have done everything that needs to be done. I will leave everything to President Nakano to handle the rest of the club."

At this time, Nakano Shigemasa asked, "President, in three days there will be your first board meeting after taking over. It was originally a year-end summary. Do you have any ideas that you need to tell me in advance?"

"idea?"

Hanyu Hideki said softly.

He probably understood what Nakano Shigemasa meant.

Although taking over Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. at this time, it is not appropriate to go into a big fight.

But as the saying goes, there are three things a new official should do when he takes office.

Solving the troubles of layoffs and military supplies is just wiping the butt of his former shareholders.

And he himself must make his own decision.

It cannot be without it, otherwise senior management and board representatives will think that he has no ideas, no decisiveness, difficulty in convincing the public, and difficulty in suppressing the ambitions of some people.

But the movement should not be too big, so as not to affect the situation that was finally stabilized.

With such concerns, Hanyu Hideki said after thinking for a moment.

"I have two ideas."

"President, please speak." Nakano Shigemasa listened attentively.

"First of all, I will continue to promote the acquisition of Husky Energy in Canada. It is only allowed to succeed and not fail. This is the first step for us to expand our operations overseas."

Hideki Hanyu expressed his first thought.

Although the move is not small, it is a continuation of previous company decisions, but now it is his final decision.

Therefore, it will not cause too much backlash and turmoil, and it is his decision. It is most appropriate to use it as the first arrangement for the new president.

But this is obviously not enough for testing.

Thinking of this, Hanyu Hideki had another idea.

He asked Nakano Shigemasa, "President Nakano, what do you think if I change the name of the group company?"

"Rename?" Nakano Shigemasa thought thoughtfully.

This is really an order that seems important but will not have any real impact if you think about it carefully.

In Hanyu Hideki's heart, this was just like the ancient Chinese emperor who gave me a temple name that did not suit his personality after he ascended the throne.

Show your filial piety and test the reaction of your courtiers.

It seems important, but it's not that important.

It makes everyone want to object, but they feel it is not worthwhile.

But if you don't object, it will invisibly make Hanyu Hideki's influence further.

"What name should I change?" Nakano Shigemasa asked.

Hanyu Hideki thought about it and felt that he needed to change it, but he should not change it too much and never deviate from his main business.

Thinking of this, he said, "How about Northeast Energy?"

No matter what, as long as the word "energy" is mentioned, it will seem particularly high-end.

Nakano Shigemasa thought for a moment, nodded and said, "I think it's okay."

Hanyu Hideki said with a smile, "That's good. The board of directors will meet in three days. I would also like to ask President Nakano for your support."

"This is what I should do." Nakano Shigemasa said yes.
-

December 6th.

The first board meeting of Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd. after the change of ownership was held.

Hideki Hanyu was elected as the group president without any surprise.

At the board meeting, previous decisions made by Hanyu Hideki, such as divesting and selling military industries, ending layoffs and recalling employees, were unanimously approved by the board of directors.

Immediately afterwards, Hideki Hanyu proposed the completion of the acquisition of Canada's Husky Energy and the order to change the name of the group.

The expressions of the board members were a bit complicated.

Obviously, this is Hanyu Hideki's arrangement to highlight the presence of his new boss.

But the key point is that Hanyu Hideki has a good balance between these two ideas.

Even those who are cautious and want to object must carefully consider the pros and cons and calculate the pros and cons.

Some reasons are insufficient, and some are reasonable, but not cost-effective.

In this atmosphere, these two decisions were finally passed.

Since then, Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., which has a history of nearly seventy years, has become a thing of the past.

Tohoku Energy Co., Ltd., freshly released.

After the board meeting ended, Nakano Shigemasa, who was regarded by everyone as Hanyu Hideki's "lackey", began to resolutely implement Hanyu Hideki's arrangements.

And Hideki Hanyu also has his own things to do.

Since December 6th.

Hideki Hanyu, as the president of Tohoku Energy Co., Ltd., began an inspection tour of the entire group.

He ran through the entire Northeastern region without missing a beat.

Convene corporate meetings in various regions, meet with employee representatives within the club, as well as managers at all levels, etc.

Similarly, he also has to visit political figures in various regions, local powerful families in the parliament, spokespersons from business partners, etc.

He even met privately with the leader of the Inakawa Society, the largest Yakuza organization in Northeast China.

The process is simple. To sum it up, we can cooperate formally and do business, and everything remains as it is. As for other things, he has no interest in participating.

At this time, Hanyu Hideki did not need to be afraid of these forces, but there was no need to go out of his way to offend him.

After all, in this era, no matter what you do in Neon, it is difficult to stay away from these forces.

On the contrary, if used properly, these forces can also be a good help.

Especially some shady things are best left to these people.

All in all, it took him more than twenty days to complete this lap.

By the time he returned to Sendai City, it was already December 27th.

The first time he got home, Hideki Hanyu lay down directly, not wanting to move at all.

In more than twenty days, I traveled throughout the Northeast region.

In addition to traveling, there are meetings.

In addition to meeting with subordinates, he also visits various important people.

It's commonplace to build relationships, negotiate deals and interests, agree to construction, and commit to investment.

In the whole process, the consumption of physical energy is secondary. The kind of entertainment that requires racking one's brains and consuming energy all the time is the most important thing.

Whether it is the intensive schedule or the physical and mental exertion, it is far better than his previous all-neon tours.

However, the rewards of hard work are also huge.

Not to mention that in the past twenty days, he has continued to dominate the media in the Northeast region.

Just the mastery and understanding of Northeast Energy is completely different from before.

Moreover, by visiting those important figures, it also stabilized the relationship between Northeast Energy and the local government after the change of ownership, and deepened the cooperation and interests between them.

In a word, he has taken the first step to master Northeast energy.

As for complete control, that is a matter of time and effort and cannot be accomplished overnight.

In addition to personnel matters, he must also bring benefits to everyone.

After all, in this world, if everyone temporarily says you are good, is it really good?

Verbal promises can never compare to tangible benefits.

After relaxing at home for a while, Hanyu Hideki put on a bathrobe and prepared to relax in the hot spring at home. By the way, he met with Nakano Shigemasa, the president of Tohoku Energy.

Learn about the future of Tohoku Energy and head to Tokyo now.

Over there, he also has to attend the year-end meetings of the Yunshang Department and the Elf Department.

In the hot spring pool, Hanyu Hideki squinted his eyes to enjoy.

In the soup pool, Nakano Shigemasa was sitting opposite.

Report the latest situation of Tohoku Energy to Hideki Hanyu.

"President, the recall of previously laid-off employees has been basically completed, the delivery of the military industry and Mitsui has been completed, and the name change of the club is still going on..."

Don't wonder why changing the name is more troublesome than recalling employees and selling the military industry.

Changing the name may seem simple, but for a company as big as Tohoku Kasei Co., Ltd., it is an extremely cumbersome matter.

Internal procedures, government registration changes, external disclosures and notifications from partners.

Every item is extremely cumbersome and troublesome.

Fortunately, it is only the name change of the group company, not its subsidiaries or the consumer products produced and sold, otherwise it will only be more troublesome.

Hideki Hanyu asked at this time, "What's the news from Canada?"

What he was talking about was, of course, the acquisition of Husky Energy in Canada.

If this kind of thing were done in the past, it might have been difficult to acquire it with his own energy or the energy of the original company.

After all, the richest man Li can make an operation to change his son's nationality, but he has no son with whom to change his nationality.

But now, he is using his identity as Northeast Energy to negotiate acquisitions.

Although he is the controlling party, he also represents the interests of the Mitsui Group to a certain extent.

Pulling off a tiger's skin to make a big flag is sometimes very useful.

"Our main competitor now is a listed company in Xiangjiang, which cooperates with the Royal Bank of Commerce of Canada and has great influence on the board of directors of Husky Energy."

Nakano Shigemasa replied.

"It doesn't matter. It's just that it has influence and it's not a direct controlling party. The energy market is not going well right now. In the end, investors are still after money. No matter how much they bid, we will just keep up."

Hideki Hanyu made his decision without hesitation.

Having read the script, is he still afraid of competing with Richest Man Li?

Than spend money?

Haha... No one is afraid of neon capital in this period.

"Yes, President." Nakano Shigemasa agreed.

"And one more thing……"

Hanyu Hideki was about to say something.

Suddenly, a crisp bell sounded outside the soup pool.

This means something is wrong.

"What's going on?" Hanyu Hideki asked.

His assistant was outside and answered immediately.

"President, there is a Miss Suzuki Kyoka coming to visit. The maid said that this is not the first time she has come."
