December 2, 1989, Sunday.

The Economy, Trade and Industry Department not far from the Osaka Prefectural Government (Osaka City Government) welcomed a special guest.

Kitahara Sosuke parked his black and white AE86. When he got out of the car, he saw the magnificent building complex of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. It is indeed an important government agency in charge of economy and trade. The luxury of the buildings is no worse than that of the nearby Osaka Prefectural Government.

.

At this time, the Department of Economy, Trade and Industry was still called the Department of International Trade and Industry, and it did not have as many responsibilities as it did later. I let it slip last night, but fortunately, Fujiwara Norika didn't react.

Otherwise, if she keeps asking questions about the Department of Economy, Trade and Industry, he will also have a huge headache.

After the signing of the Plaza Agreement, RB's economy took off at a rapid pace, and the surge in the real estate and stock markets gave rise to a large number of shell clubs. They accumulated large sums of funds and focused on speculating in real estate and stocks to make huge profits.

The Ministry of Justice, which was originally responsible for business registration, had a huge headache, so it temporarily assigned the work to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of International Trade and Industry. They first implemented centralized registration and then consolidated it to the Ministry of Justice for unified processing.

Osaka's Legal Affairs Bureau has cumbersome procedures and its own affairs are extremely busy. Of course, Kitahara Sosuke's first choice was the Department of International Trade and Industry to register the company.

As for why they didn’t choose the Ministry of Finance, institutions like the National Tax Service and the Financial Services Agency under this thing are mortal enemies of the banking industry. He is a bank employee and registered a company in his own name. If he dealt with the Ministry of Finance, they would not be allowed to do so.

Check it out yourself?

This is one of the reasons why Sosuke Kitahara did not choose to use his real estate to mortgage the matryoshka indefinitely after time travel.

If you do that, you will first attract the attention of a large number of colleagues and officials from the Ministry of Finance. Let’s not talk about whether you will be able to make huge profits in the end. As long as you start this way, your reputation will be completely ruined in the circle.

.

If the banking industry has a bad reputation, it will be difficult to move forward. If it provokes those hawks in the Ministry of Finance, business will be full of pitfalls in the future, and the gains will not be worth the losses.

Practices such as shorting the stock market are similar to this. Not only are they easy to be noticed by the superiors, but they may also be shaken up by consortiums, and in the end they lose everything.

Therefore, after careful consideration, Kitahara Sosuke chose to sell off his properties to obtain funds instead of continuing to use these assets to play tricks.

With the first money, he had the confidence to manipulate it and slowly roll it into a huge snowball without taking huge risks for a small profit.

It coincides with the holidays, and the interior of the Department of International Trade and Industry is deserted. Only a few emergency windows are still open. Civil service positions are not popular these days. College students who are capable are thinking of going to big companies to become good people. Only those with poor schools can do so.

Choose to work in the system.

The RB system is different from the previous one in China. Multiple parties coexist, and consortiums manipulate elections behind the scenes. A group of shady people are involved. Even if ordinary people get in, they will not be able to get ahead.

Therefore, during this period, government units were short of manpower and could not recruit people.

Kitahara Sosuke took Fujiwara Norika around the front hall and came to the small room at the back. There was already a young woman in professional attire standing there. When she saw them coming, she bowed with a friendly and professional attitude.

Her smile leaves no room for doubt.

"Hello Mr. Kitahara, I am Kudo Momoe who is responsible for receiving you. Would you like to start the registration now?"

Fujiwara Norika, who was holding a lot of information, looked around curiously. It turned out that there was such a VIP room in the Department of International Trade and Industry!

"Yes, let's start now." Kitahara Sosuke sat on the soft sofa and let Fujiwara Norika settle down.

Someone knocked on the door, came in, brought tea and cakes, and then left, leaving only three people in the private room.

Kudo Momoe secretly looked at the young man in front of her, and she was quite curious. It was her day off and she was forced to work overtime by the class principal to serve this sudden man. Although she was unhappy, she thought it was better than others.

The few pot-bellied perverts who were spared to accompany the general affairs were so nice that I could bear this tone.

Usually the clients who work overtime on weekends are powerful people, but the one in front of me is a bit too young.

"It's a great honor to serve Kitahara-kun. Are all the required documents on the list ready?" Momoe Kudo asked enthusiastically.

"Fujiwara, please show all the documents to Miss Kudo." Sosuke Kitahara called Masao Kitahara after returning home last night, and his father readily agreed to his request.

He is also looking forward to and curious about Kitahara Sosuke's next plan, and wants to see what amazing results his son with an ALL IN attitude can achieve.

With the recommendation of Masao Kitahara, the executive director of Tosan Head Office, he no longer has to worry about approval issues. He only needs to submit the documents and wait for the green light.

In fact, Masao Kitahara didn't understand what he was doing. With his help, Sosuke Kitahara could directly apply for a special financing project, and then the bank would contribute funds and help him get Takeuchi Rubber, and the process would be much simpler.

If you are worried about branch and sub-branch membership card applications, it is enough to put out the name of Masao Kitahara. Why bother to go through the head office process and apply for the merger and acquisition holding model to target such a small and negligible club?

Of course he couldn't understand, because this was the first step for Kitahara Sosuke to create his own financial empire!

He explained to others at the morning meeting that he disliked the branch process being too cumbersome, and Takeuchi Rubber couldn't wait any longer, so he chose this special model.

Yu Kuroda and others didn’t think the branch would approve his application. From this point of view, it seemed that the merger and acquisition holding model was the only way out, and there was nothing wrong with it at all.

But the fact is that Kitahara Sosuke is not willing to bind Takeuchi Rubber and Tosan! He deliberately wants to separate the two.

Not long after, Tosan will incur huge liabilities due to the non-performing loans during this period, and the Mitsubishi Group behind the scenes will intervene to save it.

However, Tosan, which was rotten to the core, could not survive the crisis with the capital injection from the Mitsubishi Group. After a few years, it had to merge with the Tokyo External Banking Corporation to seek a glimmer of hope.

He didn't even know if the Osaka Chuo District branch would still be there next year, so he tied Takeuchi Rubber to the boat. If it capsized, it would be all in vain and he would definitely become a victim.

So from the very beginning, Kitahara Sosuke was ready to sell all his family property and use the big tree of Tosan, which had not yet fallen, to protect his fledgling empire.

Borrowing human, material and financial resources with almost no restrictions is what he wants.

It was very quiet in the private room.

While Kitahara Sosuke was distracted, Kudo Momoe quickly confirmed all the documents, sealed them, and then looked up at him.

"What is the name of the club?"

"Let's call it Kitahara Investment Co., Ltd. The information of the board members is here." Kitahara Sosuke smiled and took out a document he kept personally.

He doesn't care who is on the board of directors list. Anyway, they are just people recruited by his father to make up the numbers. When the company grows in the future, he can just eliminate them one by one and re-place his subordinates.

When she heard that Kitahara was called to invest, Kudo Momoe showed an expression of sudden realization.

It seems to be another empty shell club, mainly used for real estate transactions.

These days, she has handled many similar registration businesses, all of which were sold as dog meat. As long as she paid a registration fee of several hundred thousand yen, she could start speculating on real estate with loans.

Thinking like this, Kudo Momoe took the envelope from Kitahara Sosuke. Inside was the registration fee. Hey, why is it so heavy?

"Miss Kudo, there is a registration fee of five million yen. Please check the amount." Kitahara Sosuke said with a smile.

Five million yen?!

Isn’t it enough for a shell club to just pay the basic payment of a few hundred thousand yen?

Five million yen has already reached the registration fee threshold for a physical enterprise! If there is no demand for the company's business in the future, there is no need to pay so much.

Kudo Momoe took the envelope with a puzzled face, and after counting it, she accepted it solemnly, and her eyes changed when she looked at Kitahara Sosuke.

This is a man with a lot of money.

"Then please leave it to Miss Kudo." Kitahara Sosuke stood up and bowed, and Kudo Momoe quickly stood up and returned the bow.

After completing the entity registration of Kitahara Investment, Kitahara Sosuke and Fujiwara Norika quickly left the Department of International Trade and Industry and headed to their next destination.

At this moment, Fujiwara Norika has another doubt in her head. She wonders who the big shot behind the scenes is willing to support the department head, and is actually willing to name the company Kitahara Investment!

It seems like the department head is fully responsible, but how is that possible? He is not your father, so why are you so kind and recommending and delegating power!

In her mind, she quickly imagined a scene in which the department head was groveling to a big shot while presenting a gift box filled with ten thousand yuan bills.

Hey, it’s really not easy to be a department head!

Kitahara Sosuke saw the little girl looking at him with an expression of pity, and smiled angrily. He didn't bother to pay attention to what strange thing she was thinking, and lightly tapped her on the head.

"Cheer up and go to Inoue Logistics later. It's up to you to communicate with their president."

"Hey, hey, I'll do it?" Fujiwara Norika followed Kithara Sosuke around these days. She saw a lot and learned a lot, but she was basically a tool and never acted on her own.

"Yes, you have to take this loan back, Fujiwara." Kitahara Sosuke said with a smile on his face. His smile looked very warm, but it always made Fujiwara Norika feel similar to some demons in movies.

It is not easy to recover a loan. As the saying goes, "It is easy to borrow money but difficult to repay it." Those customers feel like squeezing out toothpaste when the bank collects loans. They wish they could pay it back for the rest of their lives!

Fujiwara Norika originally didn't want to do such dirty work, but when she looked up and suddenly saw the strange light in Kitahara Sosuke's eyes, she suddenly woke up.

The department head is testing his learning achievements in the past few days!

In this case, you have to bite the bullet!

…

Two hours later, the two arrived at the headquarters of Inoue Logistics Co., Ltd. located on the border of Chuo Ward.

Before entering the building complex, you can hear the roar of large truck engines, container trucks driving in and out, and occasionally the roars of workers in blue and white uniforms.

The renovated headquarters building is particularly eye-catching, six stories high, and there is a huge billboard with Inoue Logistics engraved on the outside.

Fujiwara Norika naturally did her homework before coming. Inoue Logistics is a well-known logistics company in the central district of Osaka and an old customer of the financing class. It was previously in the hands of Section Chief Yu Kuroda. After he was promoted to Section Chief, this

The client was entrusted to Sosuke Kitahara.

Judging from the financial reports in recent years, Inoue Logistics has almost reached a bottleneck period, with more than enough success but insufficient potential. Even so, it is still a high-quality customer that various banks are vying to attract.

A year ago, it began to transform into real estate, and then expanded its loan needs, borrowing a total of 100 million yen from the third series.

From Fujiwara Norika's perspective, Inoue Logistics is the high-quality customer they need, and all major banks are flocking to it.

If she had not accepted the bubble concept that Sosuke Kitahara had instilled in her before, and had made up her mind to be bound to the same boat as the department head, she would never have taken the initiative to collect this loan.

"Just take it!" She took a deep breath and walked into the Inoue Logistics headquarters building as if going to the execution ground.

Kitahara Sosuke was not too anxious. He walked slowly behind, wandering around, and when Fujiwara Norika disappeared, he walked into the headquarters building.

Fujiwara Norika was waiting respectfully at the elevator entrance. When she saw him coming, she quickly waved to signal him to open the elevator first. When Kitahara Sosuke walked in, she turned around and rushed in. Then she stood on tiptoe and looked at the side of the elevator, which was a little blurry.
