"Is that something you should be asking?" Genmoto Gonoji rebuked sternly.
Startled, Matsukawa quickly bowed his head and said, "Hi! I'm sorry, Chairman."
Watching his capable assistant leave to get to work, Genmoto Takeo's lips curled into a smile.
Who told Xing Baohua to provoke Sony? The powerful figures behind Sony are not happy about it.
Those in power, in particular, have disliked Xing Baohua for quite some time.
They are planning a policy specifically targeting Xing Baohua to drive him out of Nikon.
These people in opposition even wanted to turn Nikon into a state-owned asset and put it under the control of the R government.
We should learn from the US's attitude towards Xing Baohua—be tougher and more ruthless, and keep his funds in Japan.
This is what Sony told the old man when they were talking to Takeno Minamoto.
Before Xing Baohua came along, the two families had a very good relationship. It was only Xing Baohua who ruined their friendship.
Now that Genmoto Takeoji, a native, is finally in charge, they've dropped the lawsuit against Sony and together they've driven Xing Baohua out of Nikon.
As for his π Group, he needs to be nurtured further before being slaughtered.
Genmoto Takeo also had his own plans. He wanted to get more shares when Sony joined forces with the opposition to deal with Xing Baohua.
The shareholding is too small to maintain control over people!
Purchasing shares in Ni required a lot of money, and when he learned that Xing Baohua was to be ousted, he wanted to raise some funds.
In addition to mortgaging some of his fixed assets, he also set his sights on Nikon Finance.
The orders that Xing Baohua secured for mainland China were handled through the π Group.
Some were deposits, which π Group had already paid into the account. This was because they were worried that Nikon would run into a cash crunch. At that time, the stock was still falling, and Nikon did not have much cash on hand.
"It seems we need to change the CFO," Minamoto Gonoji muttered.
This time, Takeno Minamoto learned his lesson and didn't notify the board of directors about the change of CFO; instead, he simply accepted the appointment directly.
This operation is strictly speaking illegal.
Not only did Genmoto Takeo replace the CFO, but he also completely overhauled the finance department, filling it entirely with his own people.
Kawaguchi Kanae promptly relayed this information to Xing Baohua.
Xing Baohua immediately instructed Kawaguchi Kanae to convene a board meeting to question Genmoto Takeoji.
Why were key personnel appointed without a board vote?
The purpose of the board meeting was to veto the people promoted by Genmoto Takeo. No matter how much they try to collude and cause trouble, as long as Xing Baohua remains the major shareholder, there's no way he can bypass them.
