#655 - Call from Japan
"Boss, I just received a call for you at the Su Corporation. They said they're from the Japanese government and want to contact you to discuss some matters." Su Cheng, upon returning home, received a call from Yang Chaoye shortly after.
"The Japanese government is finally looking for me? I thought they could hold out longer." Su Cheng said with some surprise.
"It's been two or three weeks. The main reason is that this incident caused them heavy losses. If this matter isn't resolved, its impact on them will continue. I didn't expect them to endure this long. Ultimately, it's due to their arrogance, believing that Japan's dignity is paramount.", Yang Chaoye chuckled.
"What did you say?" Su Cheng asked.
"Boss, after confirming their identity, I gave them your phone number. I believe they will call you soon!" Yang Chaoye replied.
"Okay, I understand!" Su Cheng said.
Not long after hanging up, Su Cheng indeed received a call from a Japanese phone number.
"Mr. Su, hello. I am Tanaka Saburo, a diplomat from the Japanese government's foreign affairs department. I represent the Japanese government and would like to have a discussion with you. I wonder if Mr. Su is available?" A middle-aged voice came from the other end.
To Su Cheng's surprise, it was spoken in relatively standard Mandarin.
"I'm available. What do you want to discuss?" Su Cheng said, settling onto the sofa.
A Jiao, who was nearby, poured Su Cheng a cup of hot tea.
Recently, Su Cheng had taken a liking to drinking tea. He found that when he drank tea, his mood would become much more relaxed, even when he was drinking alone.
Of course, Su Cheng didn't feel any sincerity in his tone.
After all, as a high-ranking official of a major economic power, such behavior was normal. Su Cheng wouldn't naively think that they were genuinely apologizing now.
"I am very happy to receive your words. In the past two or three weeks, I have been very disappointed with Japan's investment environment. I'm not afraid to tell you that if this continues, I am planning to completely withdraw from the Japanese market and no longer invest in Japan," Su Cheng said with a smile.
"That's right, Mr. Su. This incident has greatly damaged Japan's international image, so we would like Mr. Su to come forward and speak up for Japan. I wonder what conditions Mr. Su has?" Tanaka Saburo finally stated the purpose of his call.
"Mr. Tanaka, are you aware of how great our losses have been this time?" Su Cheng didn't agree, but instead asked.
"Uh, I'm not sure about that," Tanaka Saburo said.
"I'm not afraid to tell you that, as of now, due to this incident, our losses in Japan have reached as high as 180 million US dollars. If this continues, our losses will soon exceed 200 million US dollars. I wonder who will foot these losses?" Su Cheng said directly.
These losses were mainly due to the projected revenue loss after Su Corporation, Hutchison Whampoa, and other companies under Su Cheng's umbrella suspended operations in Japan during this period. It wasn't that he really lost that much. Of course, if these companies under Su Cheng hadn't stopped operating, they would have earned that much anyway.
As for the employee salary losses during the shutdown period, they weren't that significant and could be ignored.
Tanaka Saburo wasn't a professional in this area, so he naturally didn't know where Su Cheng's losses came from. Therefore, he didn't dwell on this issue and instead continued to ask Su Cheng: "Besides this issue, I wonder what other conditions Mr. Su has? Please state them all, and I will report them to my superiors."
"Besides this, it's also very simple. I suffered heavy losses in Japan, all because your work was not in place, especially the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department and the Japan Investment Promotion Agency. They didn't provide me with a satisfactory business environment. I hope you can give me a satisfactory answer. If you do, I will come forward to speak up for Japan, and the projects I originally planned to invest in Japan will continue!" Su Cheng replied.
"Okay, Mr. Su, I will convey your words to my superiors. At the same time, we will also discuss the results as soon as possible. After we have discussed them, I will call Mr. Su as soon as possible!" Tanaka Saburo said.
"No problem, I hope this matter can have a perfect ending!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
"Okay, Mr. Su, goodbye!"
The two hung up the phone.
Su Cheng put down the phone, pondered for a moment, and then ignored it.
From the tone of this Tanaka Saburo, it could be seen that the Japanese government seemed to be planning to admit defeat.
This was a good thing for him.
This was the result he was waiting for.
He still wanted to stay in the Japanese market.
After all, how great it was to be able to earn a lot of money from the Japanese people in the Japanese market!
Once he withdrew from the Japanese market, he would no longer be able to earn the money of the Japanese people.
An hour later, on the Japanese government's side.

At this time, the cabinet was filled with gloom.
Although they had made plans to crack down on organized crime, Japan's international image had plummeted recently.
This kind of thing couldn't be solved by just launching a crackdown on organized crime.
Ultimately, it was still the matter of the Su Corporation being extorted.
No one had expected that Su Cheng, the world's richest man, would be so tough, directly disregarding Japan, the world's second-largest market.
Japan's tourism industry had dropped to freezing point in the past two weeks.
The most serious thing was that even Japanese goods were being rejected all over the world.
Who would have thought that an extortion incident would have such a big impact?
At this time, the Japanese Prime Minister was secretly holding a meeting. If someone with ulterior motives were present, they would notice that the famous Minister of the Japan Investment Promotion Department was not there.
That is to say, he was not invited to participate in this secret meeting.
"Everyone should know Su Cheng's conditions. Everyone, how should we resolve this matter? If this continues, our losses in Japan will be great, so the sooner this matter ends, the better!" The old man said gloomily from the main seat in the conference room.
This matter was simply a disgrace to Japan!
But there was no way, the fault was on their side, not the other party's.
If they wanted this matter to end smoothly, the best way was really to have Su Cheng come forward in person.
But if this matter wasn't given a satisfactory explanation to Su Cheng, how could he possibly come forward! (End of this chapter)
