Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

The more he thought about it, the more Morita Akio felt it was possible, and then he became nervous. Although I haven’t paid much attention to it, I have done some research on it. Moreover, he would still take a look at the financial statements of Sony's various branches. Sony's investment department currently holds a lot of real estate and stocks in Japan.

In fact, this is not only true of Sony, but also of many large Japanese companies. Although Akio Morita looks down on the real estate industry, thinking that it is a speculator and cannot be called an entrepreneur at all. You must know that he is praised by the world as the saint of management; only by making products that change the world can it be regarded as entrepreneurial behavior.

As for making money by investing capital and strength, I really don’t bother to do that. However, he also knows that investing in real estate makes money, but he will not bear this reputation. Leave it all to the son-in-law, and if it works, the business will make money. Even if he is misunderstood, his son-in-law will always take the blame. In short, he was not directly involved in this matter, and he was absolutely innocent on the surface.

Bao Zixuan has obtained many real estates and properties through technology patents. Of course he knew the purpose of this boy, so he did not stop his son-in-law from purchasing real estate. Even sometimes, I am still very supportive. From the fact that he often takes Shunfu Morita to meet with the presidents of major banks, it can also explain some problems.

After all, no matter how big a company is, especially an investment company, it still needs funds. Introducing the president of the bank to your son-in-law will definitely make it much easier when getting a loan. Thanks to the continuous rise of Japanese real estate in recent years, Sony Investment Company's performance is very impressive.

Today, Morita Akio felt that things were not that simple, otherwise Bao Zixuan would never sell the properties and properties he had worked so hard to get for profit.

At this moment, he was not in the mood to continue eating. Akio Morita put down his bowls and chopsticks and said very seriously: "Tell me what's going on and how many real estate properties the Blackstone Fund has sold off."

Everyone knew the old man's character, and it had been a long time since he paid so much attention to something. Is there something wrong here, otherwise it wouldn't make sense at all.

Morita Shunfu did not dare to neglect, put down his bowls and chopsticks, and replied seriously: "Blackstone Fund is a Wall Street company that came to Japan to invest as early as 6 years ago. It is a big deal from the beginning, as long as it is a stock or property that it is interested in, No matter what the cost, you will get it.”

"Maybe it has something to do with the boss's personality. The boss of Blackstone Fund is an old acquaintance with his father; that is, Bao Zixuan of Black Cloud Group. As a result, many office buildings and real estate in prime locations in Tokyo have been purchased by Blackstone Fund. As for how much they bought in the stock market Company stocks, there really is no specific number for this.”

"The number is so huge that there is no way to count it. But I know that Blackstone Fund holds a lot of Sony shares, but I don't know why; it was sold to another Wall Street fund company, Hawkins Fund, one day ago."

"As for Phil Hawkins, the boss of Hawkins Fund Company, he is also an old acquaintance with Bao Zixuan. In the early days, he was the largest customer of Heiyun Group in the United States, and later they founded Best Buy together. I heard that the two have a good personal relationship, and at the same time, Phil Hawkins Al-Hawkins is also the son-in-law of the Rockefeller family."

“So it’s unclear whether there is an exchange of interests here!”

"At the same time, Blackstone Fund also reached a deal with several other Wall Street funds and sold all the Japanese company stocks it held to them. Many analysts believe that Bao Zixuan is not an American after all; he came to Japan so long in advance, Some of the money earned must be shared out.”

"Blackstone Fund sold off all the properties in Setagaya District two days ago, and today it is more resolute. Spreading the area to the whole of Japan, there are many properties in good locations; it's just that the competition is too fierce, and we don't get many. "

After hearing his son-in-law's analysis, Akio Morita really didn't know what to say. He still knew very well who Bao Zixuan was. Don't talk about giving benefits to the Americans. It's better not to dig holes for the Americans. And with the opponent's strength, there really is no need to deliberately please anyone. What happened to the Morgan family when the Hong Kong dollar was in crisis.

Didn't he just come back defeated and beaten to a bloody head? I heard that in the end, Miss Morgan, who had some relationship with him, came forward and the matter was settled. Otherwise, the heirs of the Morgan family may all be removed from the financial industry. Don't these sons-in-law know this? They are still too immature. Wall Street financial institutions may be able to scare others.

But Bao Zixuan will never lose his own interests because of them. There must be a bigger conspiracy here, and things are definitely not that simple.

Akio Morita: "How many stocks of companies currently held by Sony Investment Company, and their approximate value. How many properties does it have at the same time, and how much are they worth."

My father-in-law never checks the accounts, he just reports every month and basically doesn't interfere with his work. What's going on today? There are so many problems all of a sudden.

But he is not only the son-in-law, but also a subordinate of Akio Morita. At least at this moment, my father-in-law is still the president, Sony's first and foremost person. So questions like these must be answered, and there is no excuse for rejection.

Regarding his job, Morita Shunfu did a very good job; if his ability and attitude were not good at all, Morita Akio would not betroth his daughter to him. I may not be familiar with all the company’s data, but I still remember the important data.

I specially sorted it out before I came here. Even though I was worried about my father-in-law asking questions, the opportunity was really reserved for those who were prepared, so this came in handy.

Shunfu Morita: "Currently, the total value of the stocks held by Sony Investment Company exceeds 400 billion yen. As for real estate, properties, and other real estate, the value exceeds 1 trillion yen. However, 700 billion of them are loans, but I believe , according to the current development trend, the total value of real estate will exceed 1.3 trillion yen by the end of the year.”

Everyone present was very happy to hear that Sony Investment Company's assets were so large. They are all members of the Morita family, and Sony is powerful, which is great news for them. After all, you want outsiders to recognize you, especially when you have contact with children from other families. Without a strong backer, it would be impossible.

The increase in asset size is gratifying, but the loan of 700 billion yen is really a headache.

Akio Morita also knows that his son-in-law cannot be blamed for many things. In order to acquire Columbia Pictures, a lot of funds were transferred from Sony Investment Company. As a result, there was basically not much money left on the books. Now it is very rare to have a floating profit of 700 billion yen.

Loans of up to 700 billion yen must be resolved. Once the real estate market collapses, Sony Investment Company will surely suffer heavy losses.

But now we can't directly dampen the enthusiasm of our son-in-law, although we can treat everyone equally. But children will definitely still have other thoughts in their minds, and it is important to appease their emotions. In addition, the son-in-law's work is indeed very good; the son is in the same position, and he really can't do this.

For so many years, Bao Zixuan never seemed to make any mistakes in his judgment of the situation and the economic situation. In other words, he is not optimistic about the Japanese market. Actions have proven everything, and it is useless to say more.

Once Japan's economy encounters problems, holding more than one trillion yen in stocks and real estate is a very dangerous thing. The most important thing is that there are a lot of bank loans, which will lead to bankruptcy. Maybe not that serious, but close.

Akio Morita: "You may not understand, but as for Bao Zixuan, no one in Japan knows better than me what kind of person he is. He is definitely a person who is shrewd than a monkey even if he has plucked his hair, and he never makes mistakes when he is unsure. battle."

"I remember ten years ago, when we just met. When Sony and Heiyun were discussing technology patent licensing, the other party didn't want cash, but tried every means to get real estate in Japan. At that time, everyone thought that this was because they wanted to come to Japan. develop."

"Although Xiangjiang's economy is good, the scientific research personnel are much worse. At least it is difficult to support the development of a large company. But the other party did not do that. They even relied on their own abilities to establish Yulin Institute of Technology and complete the Heiyun Institute of Technology alone. Small Town Project.”

"So his plan for Japan started as early as ten years ago. Have you ever thought about this question? Why did an entrepreneur who was very optimistic about Japan's economic development ten years ago suddenly sell off his real estate holdings? and stocks; and very resolutely, not even reserved at all.”

"Everything shows that he is not optimistic about Japan's economy. Even Heiyun's internal analysts believe that Japan's economy has reached a peak; it is very difficult to develop."
