The Kyoto Bubble Era: It started with selling off hundreds of millions of property

April 2, 1990, Beiyuan Logistics Headquarters Building, Central Conference Room.

The most well-known newspapers, magazines, TV stations and other media in the Osaka area gathered together. Nearly a hundred reporters came to this press conference. The scale was many times larger than the one at the end of February.

Among them are a group of media who participated last time, a group of people with ulterior motives, and a group of media reporters who are interested in the new logistics industry of Beihara.

They were talking a lot, the camera flashes were flashing, and they were curious about what shocking news Kitahara Sosuke could bring to today's press conference.

At nine o'clock in the morning, Kitahara Sosuke, who was surrounded by several people, walked step by step into the large conference room. Immediately, countless spotlights were pointed at him, and the cameras kept snapping photos. No matter what the result was today, he would occupy all the mainstream media tomorrow. The man on the front page.

Kitahara Logistics' express delivery business has become famous in Osaka's Chuo District in just one month. After he acquired a large number of 7-11 and FamilyMart, it has reached the point where almost everyone knows about it.

Standing next to him is Kitano Ran, the new general manager of Kitano Logistics. Media reporters have long inquired about this woman. She is from Tokyo. Her family runs Kitano Real Estate, a listed real estate company, but she chose to withdraw when the real estate market was at its most expensive. , news has spread that Kitano Real Estate will be incorporated into Kitano Investment Group, will be renamed Kitano Logistics, and will launch express delivery business in Tokyo.

"I'm very glad that you are invited to attend this press conference. I promise that you will not leave disappointed." Sosuke Kitahara smiled into the microphone, "This is the first official news conference held by Kitahara Logistics after its establishment. At the press conference, I will announce the current basic situation of Beiyuan Logistics in the industry, as well as last month’s financial statements.”

The audience was silent, waiting for him to continue.

Everyone is curious about what happened to Beiyuan Logistics last month, which is so popular. It seems to be doing very well. Will the actual profit be very thin, or even a loss?

"As you can see, Kitahara Logistics has undergone extensive rectifications since its establishment. We focus on personal parcel delivery services and operate with the concepts of service first and next-day delivery. In just one month, Kitahara Logistics occupied a large area in Osaka's Chuo Ward More than 90% of the share in the personal parcel delivery field! At the same time, in other distribution fields, we have also increased from less than 10% during the Inoue Logistics period to 12%. Today, Kitahara Logistics has nearly 300 employees, most of whom were trained by us. That is, the 'courier' who comes to work at the speed of light."

These data are indeed impressive. Being able to capture so much market share in one month shows that Kithara Logistics has something that other logistics companies cannot replace.

And this lies in their speed, service attitude and professionalism.

"As for the financial statements for March, Kitahara Logistics' total turnover is approximately 400 million yen, of which the net profit is approximately 60 million yen, and the profit margin is approximately 15%." After Kitahara Sosuke finished speaking, there was an uproar.

"How is it possible! A mere small package delivery can actually create a turnover of 400 million?"

"The profit in a single month has reached 60 million! Even if there are factors such as a good start and no competition pressure, this profit is quite a lot! But there are only so many in the Central District. Is this really a huge new market?"

"Could the financial statements be falsified? No, he must have paid taxes to the tax bureau. If he falsely reported so much profit, how much money would he lose?"

"sky"

After the surprise, only exclamations remained.

The snow wolf icon symbolizing Kitahara Logistics is shining brightly behind Sosuke Kitahara, which seems to herald the rise of a new empire!

For a moment, Kitano Lan's eyes were almost blinded by the flash!

She was also shocked when she saw the financial statements, subconsciously thinking that Kitahara Sosuke had falsified them in order to gain fame.

However, the fact is that they really made so much money from one express delivery!

In a completely new industry that no one has ever touched, many large logistics companies have achieved brilliant results in an area that many large logistics companies do not think is profitable!

She could imagine the shock to the whole of Osaka when these reports are broadcast tomorrow!

As for the competition and imitation that may occur in the future, Kitahara Sosuke has already made plans and backup plans. His concepts and business models are far ahead of this era, and he has sufficient funds. The most important thing is that the convenience stores that serve as delivery points are all It has long been taken down by Beiyuan Logistics.

Without this convenience, the threat of competitors will be greatly reduced.

At the same time, he has also planned various advanced training courses for couriers. Anyway, he is referring to the one in his previous life. In addition, the "Black Cat Delivery Service" in his previous life has a very mature system for him to copy, so he does not have to worry about being snatched away. .

At least until Hayao Miyazaki's movie comes out, coupled with the wave of unemployment after the housing bubble burst, Kitahara Sosuke will always be the only leader in this industry.

Unless the consortium takes action, a large amount of manpower and material resources will come in to compete with him for market share. Unfortunately, once the real estate bubble bursts, the consortium will also suffer heavy losses.

At that time, their core major banks will be in various difficulties and crises in the next five years, and there will be no time and spare money to develop a nascent express delivery industry.

The only opponent he has to be wary of is Yamato Transport, which owns "Black Cat Delivery Service".

"I wonder if I have fulfilled my promise?" Kitahara Sosuke smiled.

No one dares to say that it doesn’t matter. In one month, the situation of Inoshang Logistics was turned around and a brand new industry was opened!

"President Kitahara, what do you think of the impact that bad entrepreneur Inoue Hiko had on Inoue Logistics? Does he still have some influence within Kitahara Logistics? Will your Kitahara Logistics have problems as a result?" A reporter asked Hand asked.

"Of course not. President Inoue has not left any problems in Kitahara Logistics. It is only in my hands."

Kithara Sosuke smiled and shook his head.

Inoue Hiko's family has been characterized by the Osaka Police Headquarters as a social incident in which unscrupulous entrepreneurs whose conscience was still intact finally chose to commit suicide.

He also had this shit basin stuck on his head forever. He just bullied the dead and couldn't speak.

It is true that Inoue Yan is not a conscientious entrepreneur, but he is far from being as bad as the police headquarters advertised. They just need someone to take the blame, and then let the public focus on this and ignore all the unreasonable reasons behind the suicide incident.

After all, things like the Peninsula Yakuza's movement in Osaka, which can easily cause social panic, must be concealed.

A few days ago, the Governor of the River Valley from the General Affairs Office secretly called Kitahara Sosuke to tell him that all the peninsula Yakuza elements had been captured and that the matter was about to come to an end. He was vaguely reminded not to get involved again.

The police officer Miyamoto, who has a sense of justice, had dinner with Kitahara Sosuke several times. During the dinner, he revealed that the captured Peninsula Yakuza elements were not the real murderers, but should be scapegoats who were pushed out.

But the case has been taken over by people from the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, and there is nothing he can do.

However, many clues vaguely pointed to Oyodo Construction. That company had a close relationship with the Osaka Branch of Sumitomo Bank and Itoman Co., Ltd., and the Miyamoto Police Department said that it could not continue the investigation.

In the end, this incident was a victory for some people. Police Miyamoto could only sigh as he smoked.

Another reason why he is willing to talk so much to Kitahara Sosuke is that Kitahara Sosuke has really saved many people with Kitahara Logistics. At least now, he is considered a conscientious person.

The press conference ended successfully, and the follow-up matters were left to Kitano Ran and Sakurai Saeko who had moved in.

He called Fujiwara Norika and prepared for the next move.

Norika Fujiwara, who had been sulking for a long time because of the incident at the Giraffe Nightclub last time, Kitahara Sosuke, realized that the section chief she knew had never changed.

He already had everything in his hands.

Taking the 100 million yen from the Yamada-gumi, the two embarked on a journey to find the families who were brutally destroyed by the Yamada-gumi.

There are always people left in the Central District, there are always people who are dissatisfied and angry, and if these people are willing to testify in court, they will be the sword that completely kills the Yamada-gumi and Itoman Co., Ltd.

"I thought you had to keep these 100 million section chiefs by yourself." Fujiwara Norika smiled sheepishly.

Kitahara Sosuke rolled his eyes at her, the little girl's training is not enough.

"I'm not short of money, it's only 100 million yen."
