Reborn Tokyo Golden Age.

Chapter 460 Countermeasures
This time Shirakawa Kaede came to Chuo District to attend the Keidanren meeting, it was actually the same old routine.

It is nothing more than statistics of various losses of Baichuan Electric in export trade since the latest quarter.

In addition, if you have any good ideas within the group, you can also bring them up at the meeting and discuss them together.

However, regarding semiconductor sanctions and overseas trade, Bai Chuanfeng has nothing to do.

This kind of wrestling between countries is beyond his personal control.

Besides, Baichuan Holdings has not grown to the point where it can influence national policies.

"Shirakawa-san, what do you think of the new round of sanctions from the United States?
As far as I know, your group's chips and export-oriented electronic products have been affected to a certain extent, right? "

When Bai Chuanfeng was sitting silently in the back row with Kawachi Sachiko, preparing to be a transparent person, the current president of the Federation of Economic Organizations, Saito Hideshiro, suddenly Cue saw him.

Bai Chuanfeng looked around, and a large group of old men over 60 and [-] years old silently turned their attention here.

Alas, as a young person, I originally just wanted to be a transparent person.

However, even if you want to make soy sauce.

There was no other way, he stood up and bowed slightly to the surroundings before Bai Chuanfeng spoke.

"The businesses of SIC and Shirakawa Electric have indeed been affected to a certain extent, especially since the latter has suffered heavy losses since the 100% tariff increase."

As soon as he finished speaking, many people nodded in agreement.Everyone is engaged in industry, and they feel the same way.

"As for your opinion, Saito-san, you are too disgusting. With all the seniors in charge, the economy of Nihong will not be chaotic."

Cough~ Although this junior Bai Chuan is a little younger, his temperament is still stable.It is also worthy of being a descendant of the Chinese family, whose family education shows its heritage everywhere.

Bai Chuanfeng's flattery made everyone present look much better.

They are all decision makers of many clubs under the ancient chaebol, and they are veritable seniors in the financial world in terms of seniority.

Although there are more than 1000 corporate members within the Federation of Economic Relations, only a few dozen people can actually attend the meeting.

Among them, the direct descendants of the six major chaebols accounted for more than half, and the rest were emerging chaebols like Baichuan Holdings or other local chaebols.

To be honest, with Bai Chuanfeng's qualifications, if it weren't for him being the founder of Bai Chuan Holdings, he wouldn't be able to get through such a meeting no matter what.

Keidanren, that is a group that can directly participate in the formulation of the constitution.Looking at Neon as a whole, this is almost the role played by the chess players in charge of power.

Therefore, it is normal for some old stubborns to feel uncomfortable when Bai Chuanfeng appears here at such a young age.

After all, it took them decades to get to where they are today, but Bai Chuanfeng was already on an equal footing with them when he was only in his twenties.

However, Bai Chuanfeng's humble answer did not satisfy Eishiro Saito.

"Bai Chuan-san, it's okay to say what you think. Today, everyone can speak freely. After all, the 100% tariff is related to every club here."

Um?Bai Chuanfeng blinked, feeling a little enlightened.

It seems that Lao Mi's sanctions have put a lot of pressure on the government and the Federation of Economic Relations. They all asked this young man for advice, and they should indeed be cornered.

The headache of being forced is certain, but Saito Eishiro really wants to hear Shirakawa Kaede's opinion.

He has been paying attention to Baichuan Holdings for a long time, especially Baichuan Electric, whose performance in the past two years can be called a textbook-like presentation.

After the signing of the Plaza Agreement, Baichuan Electric began to slow down its pace of expansion, and at that time he heard that Baichuan Electric was looking for the possibility of overseas OEM.

At first Eishiro Saito laughed it off, and he also thought the other party was overreacting.

But what happened next was far beyond everyone's expectations.

And Shirakawa Electric was able to survive various exchange rate wars safely, which also proved that it was a good move to plan for a rainy day.

Since then, the place of production has been changed to avoid sanctions from the U.S. Department of Commerce, and SIC's factory-free operation model has given Saito Eishiro great inspiration.

Also, he recently heard that Baichuan Holdings is making internal adjustments, which may be related to future industrial layout and transformation.

Although the specific details are not known for the time being, Eishiro Saito has reason to believe that Bai Chuanfeng is definitely not aimless.

And despite the fact that this young man was crying poor just now, in fact, Baichuan Electric did not suffer much loss at all.

A young man with a very forward-looking vision and a good sense of hiding, Eishiro Saito can only lament that the establishment of the Shirakawa Zaibatsu was not based on luck.

It's not that just anyone standing on the tide of the times can become a waver.

Under the encouraging eyes of this financial boss, Bai Chuanfeng looked slightly serious.

"The Plaza Accord, the MOSS Agreement, the Semiconductor Agreement, and the current trade sanctions, in fact, the goals of the United States have always been clear."

"Huh?" Everyone looked at Bai Chuanfeng, waiting for his further explanation.

“There is only one thing the United States wants from beginning to end, and that is the market.

There is always only one problem that the United States wants to solve, and that is the trade deficit or fiscal deficit. "

A few short sentences revealed the essence of the problem, and everyone's faces became serious after hearing it.

Many people may understand this truth, but not many can clarify their thinking.

Some people even think that the United States is simply targeting neon.

"But it happens that both of these are related to neon, or they can be treated as a problem.

That is, in the global trade market in the future, will the United States or Neon be the leader?
In the field of cutting-edge technology and the high-value-added automobile industry, is the future the United States or Neon? "

After the two questions were asked, everyone's expressions could no longer be described as serious, it was simply dignified.

Do you still need to ask such a question? Many people already have the answer in their hearts.

Even when Bai Chuanfeng asked the question, he was already hinting at the answer.

Put the United States and neon together, and then ask who listens to whom, even a three-year-old child would know how to answer.

"Baga! If Neon doesn't take the number one position in force, isn't it okay to turn to the number one position in business now?
The Yankees are too much of a bully!I am a dignified Showa man, and I am a thief."

"Shut up! Okuda!"

A big man in his 40s stood up angrily and wanted to shout out the famous saying that comes with a buff.

Before Naihe could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Saito Eishiro and others.

"Hmph!" The big man was incompetently furious for a few seconds, still feeling aggrieved.

"Shirakawa-san, do you have any suggestions for this situation?" Eishiro Saito became more polite.

"I don't dare to take the advice, the seniors have seen far more storms than the juniors.

But the United States must have these, so we can only see what we want to seize, and what can we give up? "

To put it bluntly, even Shirakawa Kaede is not optimistic about a hard fight with the United States. Selectively seizing key industries and appropriately giving up some interests may make the situation develop for the better.

After all, your chain is in other people's hands, so it can be turned upside down.

Of course, it is not for Bai Chuanfeng to decide what to hold on to and what to give up.

There are people from all walks of life here, and some things they say may offend others.

After a long silence, Saito Eishiro looked at Bai Chuanfeng again, "Besides these, does Bai Chuan-san have any other suggestions?"

Obviously Eishiro Saito also understood the deep meaning of this, in order not to make it difficult for him, Eishiro Saito also quickly changed the subject.

"The juniors feel that it is good for the neon at this time to keep a low profile and not let themselves be so prominent in foreign trade."

"Oh?" Saito Eishiro's eyes lit up, "Shirakawa-san, please explain in detail."

After deliberating for two seconds, Bai Chuanfeng spoke slowly. "Although Neon has been the number one trade surplus country in the United States in recent years.

But in fact, Germany, which ranks second, and Yizhou, which ranks second, are only more than 100 billion US dollars less than us.

Just drop it down a bit so that the Neon comes in second and is less noticeable. "

Don't look at Neon's US$500-[-] billion surplus with the United States. In fact, there are quite a few second and third surpluses.

The blame is that the neon is too prominent, and there is no one to share the firepower every year.

Taking a step or two back occasionally is not necessarily a bad thing.

It's just that after saying this, Bai Chuanfeng kept silent again.

Still the same as before, there are some things that cannot be said clearly.

"Thank you for your hard work." Eishiro Saito bowed slightly.

"Thank you for your care." Bai Chuanfeng returned the gift.

After nodding tacitly to each other, Saito Eishiro began to enter the next agenda of the meeting, which was the Toshiba incident.

Tsk, what about this matter?Or Toshiba's own death.

Bai Chuanfeng was very cautious in purchasing local parts in his hometown, so you might as well sell high-precision machine tools directly.

Do you really think that the whip in the hands of Mi Guo's father doesn't hit people?Moreover, it has been sold since 83, someone reported it in 85, and it was investigated and filed in 87.

Originally, the relationship between Neon and the United States was tense enough due to trade issues. Once the Toshiba incident came out, it directly worsened.

Nakasone, who was murdered, went to the United States to apologize, and Toshiba also spent 50 million yen to publish full-page "repentance advertisements" in more than [-] newspapers in the United States.

Let’s not talk about the losses of Toshiba’s various businesses in the United States. Whether Toshiba Group can survive safely is a question.

Shoichi Sabo, the president of Toshiba Group who had negotiated chip licensing with Kaede Shirakawa, also had to take the blame and resign.

For this reason, the neon government urgently revised the "Export Control Law" in July.

Because of this incident, the United States rejected Fujitsu's acquisition of Fairchild.

And in the field of semiconductors, there seems to be signs of another attack on neon. These are the impacts of the Toshiba incident on the neon industry.

At this time, the Keidanren mentioned the Toshiba incident here. First, it was to alert the major clubs to self-control in terms of exports.

In addition, I also hope that everyone can brainstorm to help Toshiba overcome this difficulty. After all, this is also one of the purposes of the establishment of Keidanren.

From Bai Chuanfeng's point of view, there is actually nothing to say, if there is no sovereignty, then just admit your mistake honestly.

It is reasonable to go to the father of the United States and cry a few words, and then mobilize Toshiba's power in the United States to lobby Congress for a lighter punishment.

After all, the attitude of the United States is the key to this matter, and the internal influence of Neon is secondary.

"Without sovereignty, everything is really stretched~" Bai Chuanfeng in the back row sighed softly.

"Eh?" Sachiko Kawachi, who was sitting next to him, looked at him suspiciously without hearing clearly.

"It's nothing." Bai Chuanfeng shook his head, "After the meeting is over, go outside for a walk first, and then meet another guest."

"Hai" Sachiko Kamike also felt that the atmosphere here was too serious, and her palms became sweaty after staying there for less than an hour.

From the corner of his eye, he saw her lowering her head and writing something rustling. The corners of Bai Chuanfeng's mouth were slightly raised. She was really a demure person.
