Chairman Mitsui was momentarily at a loss for words.
Looking at the young man, more than forty years his junior, speaking so aggressively, made Chairman Mitsui realize that he was indeed getting old.
Youth is wonderful; it brings energy, courage, and an arrogant fearlessness.
Seeing the rise of this young man, Chairman Mitsui was very envious. There was no one in his family who could achieve anything. Even if he had only a tenth of this kid's skill, he wouldn't worry that Mitsui Bank would belong to someone else in a few decades.
After a moment of silence, Chairman Mitsui spoke first: "It's very difficult to gain full control of Nikon, not only from internal sources but also from the pressure from the Japanese government. Especially the Japanese government; once they issue a few documents, they'll either force you to sell Nikon or make you completely lose control of it. Wouldn't it be better to be a major shareholder?"
Xing Baohua chuckled softly and said, "My acquisition of Nikon is not about how much money it can make, but about developing more advanced electronic components, optical components, etc., to become a better supplier of spare parts for rice."
"But things are always unstable within Nikon. Only a handful of people listen to me. I'm also the chairman of Nikon, and a chairman with a strong desire for control. I always have to get rid of those who don't listen to me in order to complete my business plans."
"This requires time and patience," Chairman Mitsui advised helplessly.
“I don’t have that much time and patience. Technology is developing at a rapid pace. If you’re a month behind, others will surpass you. Can you afford to wait? Time is money. If you can’t keep up with the market’s updates, the losses will be significant.” After saying this, Xing Baohua picked up his teacup, drank it in one gulp, and then slammed it down on the table.
The loud bang startled Kawaguchi Kanae, who leaned back slightly.
Xing Baohua ignored her actions, his eyes fixed on Chairman Mitsui.
This old guy had dealings with many Nikon shareholders, and some Nikon shareholders even mortgaged their shares to Mitsui Bank.
Xing Baohua wanted this old guy to help him make connections and complete the acquisition of the remaining shares.
Taking full control of Nikon is indeed very risky, but compared to the technology Nikon possesses, that amount of money is nothing. Besides, Xing Baohua's shares can be sold, and even at a lower price, it wouldn't be a loss.
Chairman Mitsui stared at Xing Baohua's imposing gaze, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Xing, I'll go back and think about it, and give you an answer in a while."
Upon hearing this, Xing Baohua smiled slightly and said, "Thank you very much, Chairman Mitsui. I look forward to hearing good news. Oh, thank you for the gift you gave me last time. To express my respect, I am sending you a gift from Europe."
Chairman Mitsui feigned surprise and expressed his gratitude, but Xing Baohua still hadn't taken it out.
This guy also got the information about Chairman Mitsui's preferences from Mitsui Tousaburo.
Sure enough, the older one gets, the more twisted one's mind becomes.
Although the gifts Xing Baohua gave were inappropriate, they were to the liking of a psychologically twisted person like Chairman Mitsui, and were even of a foreign flavor!
Xing Baohua told Chairman Mitsui that his gift was waiting for him at the apartment he had arranged.
No one knows, as long as Chairman Mitsui goes there quietly.
Indeed, no one else knew except Xing Baohua, and the entire process was recorded. This might become leverage against Chairman Mitsui in the future.
After seeing Chairman Mitsui off, Xing Baohua returned to the house and saw Kawaguchi Kanae still kneeling on the carpet.
He opened his mouth and said, "Everyone's gone, get up!"
Xing Baohua sat down on the sofa, pointed to the sofa opposite him, and gestured for his sister-in-law to sit down.
Kawaguchi Kanae sat down respectfully, leaning her body slightly so that she just touched the sofa. This posture allowed her to get up at any time, but it wouldn't be very comfortable for her.
“Nan Tianyi has never carried out my plan, which has delayed many of my things. I heard that he has eaten with Xiao Zhaoyibei a few times?” Xing Baohua asked.
"President, I really don't know anything about these secret matters," Kawaguchi Kanae said, bowing and scraping.
Xing Baohua patiently looked at the woman, slowly lit a cigarette, took a sip of tea, and said, "You mean, the position I gave you is too low, so you can't contact them and get any information?"
"No, Chairman."
"What news do you have to tell me?" Xing Baohua continued to ask.
"I'm sorry, President, you misunderstood. I said no, it's not because of my low rank." He continued, keeping his head down.
“Go back and tell those people behind you that I will take over Nikon. I won’t be as lenient as the others. Tell them that those who obey me will prosper and those who defy me will perish. This time, I will bleed those who disobey.” After Xing Baohua finished speaking, he let Kawaguchi Kanae leave.
Kazuo Minamida and Akira Koichi were able to cooperate, and Xing Baohua didn't believe that Kanae Kawaguchi was unaware of this.
Nikon is such a large company; if Xing Baohua isn't here overseeing things, they won't assign anyone else to do so.
In particular, Kazuo Minamida kept a close eye on things.
Ever since she tried to win him over, Xing Baohua had never trusted him. Sure enough, she still went north with Xiao Zhao.
Not long after, Zhao Shanhai arrived with his stepson.
After Zhao Shanhai came in, he nodded to Xing Baohua, turned around and waved to his stepson, telling him to wait outside the door.
After the door closed, Zhao Shanhai took out a box of injections from his small handbag and showed it to Xing Baohua.
"This is a super thrombin produced by Ruiguo Pharmaceutical Company. It is said to be extracted from the venom of a poisonous snake. Its main function is to stop bleeding. Just 0.5 milligrams, when injected into the human body, can cause symptoms such as cerebral thrombosis and myocardial infarction." Zhao Shanhai pushed the injection forward for Xing Baohua to see.
Xing Baohua picked up the vials and looked at them; each vial contained 1 milliliter.
