National Tide 1980

Chapter 1123 Forerunner

As the saying goes, the strongest is the best.

After hearing Axia's words, Ning Weimin couldn't help but think of this sentence.

Originally, he looked down upon the Japanese business community.

He believes that Japanese society places more emphasis on degrees than academic qualifications, and that Japanese elites generally lack entrepreneurial spirit and innovation awareness. College students only want to graduate and work in large companies.

This has led to serious involution of Japanese society, solidification of classes, and Japanese companies are also full of bureaucracy and factions.

Coupled with the fact that it is an economic colony of the United States, in the long run, Japan's manufacturing industry is destined to be hollowed out, and the enterprise's enterprising spirit is gradually declining. There is nothing to worry about.

Yes, entrepreneurs like Konosuke Matsushita and Kazuo Inamori are indeed powerful.

But the problem is that their success is inseparable from the Japanese's sense of post-war crisis and the war dividends of the Korean situation. Times have changed long ago.

They are all already old and will probably have to go to another world soon.

The new generation of entrepreneurs in Japan are all pampered people, who can compare with them?

Is it because of the richest man in Japan who lived a luxurious and depraved life and was later arrested?

Or rely on the "Mr. Tenfold" who is as keen on speculation as a gambler and was kicked out by SoftBank?

Yanai Tadashi of Uniqlo is a decent person, but who told him to sell clothes?

Its business strategy is just to focus on cost-effectiveness after the collapse of the economic bubble. This should not be too easy for the Chinese people.

To put it bluntly, this old boy is bumping into his hands. Whether he will give him room to grow is another matter.

Therefore, looking at the Japanese business community, Ning Weimin believes that there are only six top consortiums with a long history, including Mitsui, Sumitomo, Mitsubishi, Fuji, Sanwa, and Kanyin. They have too many high-quality business resources based on their deep roots. So that he can't help but be afraid.

As for other Japanese business groups or enterprises, under the brilliance of his time traveler, they are destined to be eclipsed and not worth mentioning at all.

It is estimated that in a few years, most Japanese companies will not be able to escape the bad luck of the economic bubble collapse and will never recover.

Most of them will be picked over by him and harvested like leeks.

However, this idea was stopped precisely because of the trouble Axia was currently encountering.

Only then did Ning Weimin discover that the Japanese business community was still hiding something, and that he had made a mistake that was blinding him.

Let’s just talk about Genshiro Kawamoto, that’s amazing.

This guy's business layout is really shrewd, and the more he thinks about it, the more amazing it becomes. It is perfect both offensively and defensively.

You know, the main business of Genji Group is the catering industry.

This is not only the industry with the largest and most stable demand among all industries, but also the fastest recovery of funds.

And as the old saying goes, food is the most important thing for the people, and eating is a basic necessity for everyone.

This industry has become an industry that can span economic cycles.

In addition, this guy basically no longer engages in specific operations on his own.

He just sublets the properties under his name and lets the catering merchants make money for him.

In this way, not only can business risks be avoided to the greatest extent, but also worry and effort can be saved.

Moreover, it can also provide a more stable guarantee of continued income, and fully explore the commercial value of the property under his personal name through rising rents.

Therefore, the safety margin of Genshiro's Genji Group is quite high, and there will always be a cash flow that does not require any interest payment.

Not only will his company not suffer from a disruption in capital flow due to the deterioration of the economic situation, it will not lead to sudden collapse.

You can also use the money to purchase more commercial land and real estate, continue to copy this model, and expand the scale of assets.

Presumably Genshiro has so much real estate now because he earned it through this virtuous cycle in the first half of his life.

Ning Weimin was very convinced of this.

Because McDonald's, the well-known fast food chain in the United States, has grown and expanded while opening stores and buying land at the same time.

This model will be highly praised by well-known business schools in Europe and the United States in the future, and will be used as a classic case by these people to give examples and discuss in their teaching.

What's more, as far as Ning Weimin is concerned, it is because he has such cash flow that he can support his continuous purchase of antiques and various valuable assets, and even go to Japan to speculate.

Otherwise, how can he talk about getting rich and prospering?

As for where does his own cash flow come from?

In the final analysis, it has to be said that it comes from clothing, bags and handicrafts.

However, despite Ning Weimin's important position in Pierre Cardon Company, he has unique advantages and can fully leverage the company's resources to develop his own small side business.

Even though he is engaged in diversified business, it is quite fancy.

But if you consider the industry itself, the several particularly profitable businesses he has are obviously inferior to the catering industry run by Genshiro.

Because in the final analysis it is still the same sentence, no matter how the economic situation changes, people always need to eat, right?

But when people are short of money, they may no longer buy clothes, suitcases and handicrafts. These are the icing on the cake.

As for Ning Weimin's current prosperity, even he himself knows very well that it is purely due to the special economic situation in the country. It is a dividend of the times and will never last long.

What's more, on this basis, Genshiro also loves to buy high-quality real estate in Ginza. He is most likely rushing to become the real estate king of Ginza. This is completely occupying the wind and waiting for the strong wind to blow.

God knows how much the real estate under this guy's name will be worth when this bubble carnival reaches its peak?

Anyway, in Ning Weimin's opinion, this guy's vision is much better than that of McDonald's decision-makers.

Not only do they know how to use restaurants to create real estate, but they also know how to use money to purchase high-quality locations with the most economic value.

Others don’t know how high the land prices in Ginza will be in the future. Doesn’t he also know? How can you not be envious?

It can even be said that Genshiro's business model is the most ideal business model in Ning Weimin's mind.

What this guy is today is exactly what Ning Weimin has been working hard to achieve in the future.

He saw his originally vague future prospects clearly because of Genshiro.

Not to mention that Genshiro also knows how to use such clever methods to transfer benefits, and has attracted so many people from the legal field to act as protectors for the safety of his assets.

In a country like Japan where violent gangs are legal and full of various money crimes, this is undoubtedly a far-sighted and far-sighted move.

In fact, when Ning Weimin looked at the predicament he and Axia were facing now, he not only felt ashamed and dwarfed by them, but he also felt enlightened and greatly inspired.

So how could he not admire such a clever person?

In short, after listening to Axia's description, Ning Weimin had very complicated feelings about Genshiro.

There is both vigilance, caution and awe, as well as curiosity and excitement.

Even though Genshiro was the one who made things difficult for Axia, Ning Weimin found this Genshiro more interesting the more he thought about it, and he even wanted to meet him and have a good chat with him.

He wanted to see if this guy was a genius or a cheater who traveled through time like him?

Otherwise, why could Genshiro be able to follow the rhythm every step of the way and walk ahead of him?

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh sincerely, "Listening to what you said in detail, this Genshiro Kawamoto seems to have a great mind. He is a white man, and he is much bigger than those robbers who wanted to buy my Akasaka apartment by force. Different, the method of plundering is much more clever. He is more like a thief with transcendent strength, better intelligence and methods. It is really interesting to say, I really want to meet this person."

However, these few words caused a lot of sting to Axia.

After all, the interests are at stake and the mood is different.

"Mr. Ning, please don't laugh at me. I'm at a loss now and I'm almost dying of anxiety. When I went to other banks to seek loans, it didn't go well. They either refused to lend to me or asked me to wait for at least three months. Originally, I was from a nightclub. The business gradually picked up and got on the right track. For the first time, Chixia's turnover reached five million yen every night. The remaining profit last month was almost 20 million yen. If you include my investment in the stock market For the money in it, even if Toyo Sogo Bank suddenly broke the contract and asked me to pay back the money, the problem would not be a big deal. But God does not allow me to do what I want. You should know this, right? The Japanese stock market suddenly suffered a correction, and the stocks I bought suffered heavy losses. , even if it is sold at a loss, there is still a gap of almost 150 million yen. And the most critical thing is that of the nightclubs next to me that were sold early, two have been renovated and have opened. The customers are all new. Under their desperate efforts to attract, my store lost a lot of customers, and some ladies ran away. This has made my business start to get worse recently. I am very worried that this is just the beginning, if other If my store does the same thing, then my prospects are really not good..."

As expected, this Genshiro is full of intrigue and conspiracy, and is more troublesome than a purely violent group.

After hearing Axia's words, Ning Weimin became more certain of his judgment.

Obviously, it is simply impossible to say that these things have nothing to do with Genshiro, who wants to acquire the building.

It can only be said that they think too simply about making money in Japan.

The more money becomes abundant, the more ferocious beasts there are. Everyone becomes jealous, and risks driven by profit come one after another.

It is impossible for you to easily get money by relying on a little first-mover advantage.

So he made a gesture of sympathy and took care of Axia's emotions. Ning Weimin began to express his opinions directly and discuss with Axia how to solve the problem.

"Axia, I'm pretty much aware of the trouble you're encountering. We're all so familiar with each other. So I'll just ask some questions directly, okay? If I said something wrong or offended you, please Don’t mind…”

"It's okay, just ask. The reason why I asked you to come is because I need your advice now."

Of course, Ning Weimin heard what Axia was implying, and she just hoped that he would take the initiative to lend her money to solve the problem.

A few hundred million yen is certainly nothing to Ning Weimin, but the problem is that the other party will give up on this matter if it is impossible to pay back the money.

So he didn't even mention that he could lend money to Axia.

"If it's not what I expected and they know who the opponent is, will Inakawa, who promised to protect you, also refuse to stand up for you? There's nothing they can do about this, right?"

"Yes, the deep relationship and background between the Genji Group and the judicial circles makes Inagawa very difficult. Even if they are capable of handling this matter, they are not willing to cause such a big trouble for an outsider like me. Then. There will definitely be a high price to pay. However, the second generation head of the Inagawa Association, Takahiro Ishii, said that he could lend me money in a private name. It’s just...I..."

Seeing that Axia couldn't continue speaking, Ning Weimin simply said the next words for her.

"It's just that you don't dare to owe such a big favor, right? You know in your heart whether Daochuan is a vegetarian. The so-called loyalty in the world is not worth the affordable money. If they can do it without risk and without damaging their reputation, they I definitely don’t mind adding insult to injury. If you don’t spit out the bones if they eat meat, they’ll want more..."

However, the most cruel thing is to reveal the truth of the world. Axia finally lost her temper and burst out emotionally.

"Okay, that's enough. Please stop talking..."

Perhaps she was under too much pressure recently, so she drank all the wine in the glass.

Then he took the empty wine glass and said to Ning Weimin with a pale face, "I admit that what you said is right. At present, your help is my best choice and last hope. Then I beg you, help Can you help me? Lend me 300 million yen. We are in business, and I won’t let you help me in vain. I can give you 10% of the interest per month. If you don’t want to, I’ll give you Chixia’s shares. I'll give you 20%. You should know that according to the current market price, this store is definitely worth 2.5 billion yen now. It will definitely be more in the future. You won't lose. There is also the matter of your Akasaka apartment being vandalized. , I’m here to help you find a solution. Let’s help each other, is that okay?”

Facing Axia, who was like a drowned person, whose body could not stop trembling due to emotional excitement, Ning Weimin was stunned for a moment, and then he remembered that she was a woman after all.

His usual toughness is all pretend, and his natural weakness is his true nature.

Then he sighed, no longer aggressive, but full of sympathy, and changed to soft words of comfort.

"Sorry, Axia, I shouldn't irritate you. But why do you think so? Do you think I want to take advantage of others' danger? In fact, you don't have to worry about money. No matter what, I won't see you. I won't save you. Isn't it just a few hundred million yen? I don't want interest, I can give it to you for free..."

This time it finally works, and women just do this.

Axia's face suddenly turned red again, and even though there were tears in her eyes, she was extremely grateful.

"Hey? Are you really willing to lend it to me? Thank you so much. But how can I use your money in vain? Don't worry, I will definitely do what I promised..."

"Can you please take your time and listen to me patiently, okay? Come on, have a glass of wine to calm down and don't get too excited. Otherwise we can't continue talking."

Ning Weimin was helpless and could only pour Axia a drink, hoping that it would calm her nerves.

It wasn't until a few minutes later that A'xia, who followed his instructions, managed to regain some composure and composure from her excitement with the help of alcohol.

However, this is still a useless effort.

Because Ning Weimin's next few words pierced Axia's heart again, and seemed to stimulate her even more.

"Axia, I don't run a bank. I'm not joking when I say I can give you the money for free. Because I always remember that it was you who helped me get the money overseas so that I could come here to make money. Maybe for you, Helping me is business, but it’s different to me. In addition, you came to Ginza to open a store because you listened to my advice. If I stood idly by, it would be like I cheated you, and I feel bad about it. Not to mention that everyone is still Huaxia Children and grandchildren who have left their hometowns to work hard here should help each other. However, I am not afraid that you will not like to hear it, but I have to say that this is a very critical time. I am worried that if I lend you my money, I am afraid that you will not be able to handle it well. You will fall into a bigger hell, and maybe lose everything..."

"Huh? This...why is this? Mr. Ning, don't scare me..."
