"Please have a seat, everyone."
After everyone was seated, Zhang San spoke.
"I know why everyone is here today. We at Huasuan Payment welcome everyone to join us and launch more high-quality wealth management products on our platform. However, we currently have a limited number of users, so we are only planning to launch three more wealth management products for the time being."
After Zhang San finished speaking, Sato Taro stood up.
"I'm sure you all know me, Taro Sato. I hope you can do me a favor and I'd like to have one of these three financial products!"
"Screw you, what good is your pride?"
"Yeah, do you, Sato Taro, have a particularly big face? You think I'd give you face? You're kidding me."
Sato Taro's face turned bright red. "Fine, fine, you lackeys! You used to bow and scrape before when you saw me, but now you're showing this face, huh?"
Nine banks came this time, but there were only three spots available, so naturally no one was willing to give way to anyone else.
Don't even mention you, Sato Taro; even if the Emperor himself came, it wouldn't make a difference.
Who would easily give up such an obvious opportunity to make money just by entering the market?
Zhang San watched the people arguing in the reception room, but he was secretly overjoyed.
Actually, Huasuan Pay could easily list thirty products, let alone three, but the boss said we're on someone else's turf.
When facing enemies, our guiding principle is to win over some, divide others, and suppress others.
Therefore, this plan, and the competition for these three spots, will inevitably cause disagreements among these banks.
Then we select three banks that are of medium to high strength, but not top-tier, to court.
Why choose someone with above-average ability instead of someone with top-tier ability?
Because the most outstanding members simply cannot be recruited.
Winning someone over requires a foundation of mutual benefit. I'm the big brother now, what benefits do you have to offer me to win me over?
However, those banks with above-average strength can be courted on the condition that they surpass the top-tier banks.
If things continue as they are, unless the other side makes a mistake, these banks with above-average strength will never have a chance to become the top player.
However, the variable of cost-effective payment has now emerged.
At the same time, Huasuan Pay's series of operations also demonstrated its strength.
With the help of Huasuan Payment, I might actually become number one in the shortest time, and then I would get more resources and benefits!
When the nine banks in the conference room were arguing so much that they were almost about to fight, Zhang San finally spoke up to stop them.
"Everyone, please calm down. There's no need to get so agitated. When we launch wealth management products, the most important thing is to see how good the products are. I believe everyone has brought their own wealth management products, right?"
“I brought it, I brought it, Mr. Zhang, look, this is from our Lotte Bank.”
"This is from our Postal Savings Bank..."
Zhang San waved his hand.
"Wait, everyone, don't rush. How about this, you can leave these product proposals with me for now, and we will evaluate them one by one. In three days, we will notify the three selected banks, and then we will work together to launch them. Does everyone agree?"
"No way! I think something's wrong! Who knows if you guys are up to something shady?"
"Sir, may I ask which bank you work for?"
"I work for Hokkaido Bank."
"Oh, in that case, I declare that Hokkaido Bank is the first to be eliminated, and the three spots will be chosen from the remaining eight banks."
The people from the other banks were secretly delighted. They thought the people from Hokkaido Bank were idiots. But it was good, one less person competing, which increased their chances.
"No, I..."
The people at Hokkaido Bank panicked. "Didn't you ask us if there were any problems? You're kicking me out just because I told you? You can't take a joke, can you?"
Zhang San: Hey, if you've got the guts, hit me!
"What do you mean, 'you'? You think there's something fishy going on or that it's unfair? Then just don't participate, that's all. Seriously."
Before Zhang San could even speak, representatives from other banks had already begun mocking Hokkaido Bank.
Subsequently, representatives from other banks stood up, placed their wealth management product proposals in front of Zhang San, and then took their leave.
Zhang San glanced through the list and found that the eight banks were: Bank of Tokyo, Bank of Mitsubishi, Bank of Japan, Bank of Japan, Bank of Japan, Bank of Japan, Rakuten Bank, and GMO Bank.
The strongest are naturally the Bank of Tokyo and the Bank of Japan.
Those slightly weaker were Mitsubishi Bank, Sanjinzhuyou Bank, and Postal Savings Bank.
The weakest are Risuna Bank, Rakuten Bank, and GMO Bank.
The next day, Sato Taro was pleasantly surprised to receive a call from Zhang San.
"Mr. Sato, this is Zhang San from Huasuan Payment. I'm calling to welcome Mitsubishi Bank to our Huasuan Wealth Management Alliance."
"Affordable Investment Alliance?"
"Yes, our Huasuan Wealth Management Alliance consists of banks that have a very good relationship with Huasuan Payment. We help each other and strive to reach new heights. You know what I mean?"
"Oh~~~ Hahaha, Zhang Sang, we will definitely abide by these eight rules, help each other, and strive to reach the top!"
After hanging up the phone, Sato Taro excitedly pumped his fist; this was a great opportunity!
Mitsubishi Bank has consistently been a leader among second-tier banks.
It has always been just a little short of the top tier.
The first tier includes the Bank of Tokyo and the Bank of Japan. One is an official institution, so its reputation goes without saying.
The other is a bank established by Japan's largest conglomerate, with abundant capital and investment operations spanning the globe in addition to banking.
Mitsubishi Bank is backed by the Mitsubishi Group, a well-known Japanese conglomerate that originally made its fortune in shipbuilding.
However, the numerous companies under the Mitsubishi Group are not under the unified management of the group, but operate independently.
Although this can achieve a scene of "a hundred schools of thought contending", it will not cause all enterprises to fall apart due to the corruption of the group.
However, this also eliminates the unified management and sharing of resources, and even forces companies to compete with other companies belonging to the Mitsubishi Group.
This is why Mitsubishi Bank has always remained in the second tier and failed to rise to the top.
After calming himself down, Sato Taro called the head office to report the matter.
The president of Mitsubishi Bank was also very excited when he heard this, as it was undoubtedly a huge windfall.
According to Zhang San, the first member of the Huasuan Wealth Management Alliance was a Chinese bank!
What is the status of China's banks in the world?
So, of the top 50 of the Fortune Global 500, apart from one American bank, the rest are all Chinese banks.
