Chapter 503: The Art of Passing the Buck

"Could it be that the money in the bank is gone?" Some smart person shouted outside.

As soon as these words were spoken, there was a moment of silence at the scene, and then the bank was stunned, and then the investors who came to the bank to cash in their previous profits were also stunned.

So a possibility flashes through people's minds unconsciously: the bank has gone bankrupt and the money cannot be withdrawn.

Then the situation suddenly got out of control, and all the investors were clamoring and making a fuss, frantically demanding the cashing out of their previous profits.

Of course the banks are not bankrupt, but the problem is that they really have no money now. How can they deal with bank runs?
Just when the situation was getting out of control, a man stood up, stood directly in the middle of the hall, and shouted loudly:!
"Mina-san, my name is Matsumoto Takumi, and I'm the vice president of this bank. Everyone please listen to me!"

When the investors saw the vice president speak up, they immediately surrounded him and wanted to ask for an explanation, but Matsumoto Takumi quickly said:

"Everyone please calm down. There was indeed a problem with our bank's system today, which is why you are unable to exchange your investment income!"

"Please rest assured, as a bank as big as our Sankoujing Group, we will definitely not deduct your profits without reason, so please give us some time to repair the system!"

"Please everyone, please give me some time!"

Takumi Matsumoto, 39 years old, is married, has a beautiful wife and a cute daughter.

The individual has a very strong affinity and is the deputy president of the branch. As soon as he stepped forward, he immediately took control of the situation.

But others don’t know that he is also one of the people controlled by Lin Hao.

At this critical moment, Takumi Matsumoto deliberately stepped forward to control the situation, but he actually had another purpose.

His purpose was simple, which was to drag the Three Wells Bank into the water and let them take a small blame for Lin Hao's scam!

After calming everyone down, Matsumoto Takumi came to Kawagoe Ryoma's office:
"Kawagoe-san, the problem has been temporarily under control. How is the situation over there?"

Kawagoe Ryoma smiled and said, "Well done. I have already contacted the higher-ups and asked for help from the head office!"

"Well, now we just have to wait for the final decision from above. Nakamura has already escaped anyway. If we fail to pull them into the water, we must also be prepared to evacuate!"

······
The core of the Sankoujing Group is Sankoujing Bank.

With the support of the American hawks, the island country has developed very rapidly. In addition, Sankoujing itself was a consortium a hundred years ago. Although it was later dismembered, the deep connection has not been broken.

After World War II, the conglomerates revived again and developed countless industries centered around banks.

There is no need to doubt the strength of the Sankoujing Group, but they never expected that such a big thing would happen in their own bank.

The top brass were all furious and were shouting that the person in charge should commit seppuku, but the problem now was that the Sankoui Group had to resolve this matter now.

Kameda Shogo, an executive of Sankoui Bank, said gloomily:
“Can anyone find it?”

One of the subordinates immediately reported:

"We have already sent out people to search for him, and have asked the police to help look for Nakamura Yasutoshi's whereabouts. I believe we will find this bastard in no time!"

Kameda Changwu gritted his teeth and said:
"We must tear those bastards into pieces. How can we just do that?"

Another senior executive, Sosuke Fujishima, glanced at Kameda Shogo with disdain, and then said:

"The most important thing now is not to find this employee named Nakamura Yasutoshi, but how to solve the current problem!"

Kameda Changwu thought about it, then came up with an idea, and said:

"If it doesn't work, let the people below hold back the investors first. If it doesn't work, just hold them back first~!"

His meaning was clear. What else could he do? Of course he would delay the deal until the investors were exhausted and bankrupt.

Fujishima Sosuke immediately pointed at Kameda's forehead and angrily shouted:
"Baga, you are such an idiot, such a fool. Do you want to completely destroy the Sankoujing Group, or do you want to give your competitors a chance?"

The island nation is currently in a period of rapid development. The entire island nation does not only have one consortium, Three Wells, but there are five other consortiums competing for the entire island nation market.

If Sankoujing Bank becomes a deadbeat, the bank's reputation will suffer a huge blow, and it is very likely that its competitors will use this as an excuse to discredit it.

The key point is that he disregarded the lives of his subordinates and refused to pay his debts to investors, which caused damage to the public's reputation of the Sankoujing Group. This loss cannot be compensated by a mere 100 billion yuan, unless it has reached an irreversible point.

It's easier said than done. If you have an idea, just say it. Don't sit there and make sarcastic comments!
Sosuke Fujishima sneered disdainfully, then stood up and said loudly:
“My personal suggestion is that the head office take the money directly, cash out the profits of all investors, and then we continue with the same method!”

Sosuke Fujishima said that fortunately the advice he gave to Miss Ayumi Fukada when they were chatting before solved the problem perfectly.

I believe that after this incident, I will definitely be valued by the Sankoujing family, and further progress will be just around the corner!
Kameda Changwu sneered and said:
"We have to pay off nearly 100 billion in losses in one day. Do you know how much loss it will bring to the consortium? Do you know what the consequences will be?"

However, Kameda Changwu's stupid performance finally made other executives unable to bear it:

"Bakayarō! Idiot, Fujishima's idea is that we use the system failure to delay the payment first, and then mobilize the funds to pay the proceeds."

"Following Nakamura Yasutoshi's model, we can absorb funds again. As long as there is no risk of bank run, the money will continue to roll in!"

Kameda Changwu said with a stiff face: "This is obviously a Ponzi scheme, you~!"

"As long as it can recover the bank's losses, why can't we use it?" another executive couldn't help but say.

Kameda Changwu said stubbornly: "But if there is a problem, our consortium will be finished!"

Seeing Kameda at a loss, Fujishima Sosuke said calmly:

"Then I hope nothing goes wrong. We can definitely absorb more funds for development. Given the current situation, shouldn't our annual profit exceed 50%?"

If this were done in any other country, it would be impossible to do so, but in the island country of this era, it is completely possible.

The island nation's period of super-rapid development was in the 1960s and 1970s, and its development during this era was still particularly stable.

If it were in the 1980s, the risk of a bubble would be huge, but now bank interest rates are stable, social demand is huge, and the rate of population prosperity is also increasing.

"Of course, if we have the chance, we can always put the blame on others!" Sosuke Fujishima's last words became the last wool that broke the mountain.

"Pa pa pa~!" A group of Mitsui executives looked at each other and began to applaud Sosuke Fujishima!

"By the way, let the man named Matsumoto Takumi be in charge of this matter. He was the one who proposed this plan, so he should be in charge!"

······
"Is it really successful?" Lin Hao was a little surprised when he got the news. Because Lin Hao planned to let Matsumoto Takumi come forward in order to cover up Kawagoe Ryoma, and the reason why Matsumoto Takumi came forward was because there was a disagreement among the top management of Sankoujing.

Therefore, Lin Hao asked Matsumoto Takumi to come forward. If he is not favored by the top management of Sankoujing, then Kawagoe Ryoma will be Lin Hao's backup.

However, Lin Hao did not give up on Takumi Matsumoto. When Yasutoshi Nakamura was about to run away, Lin Hao asked Ayumi Fukada to use her influence to influence the thinking of Mitsui's top management.

It would be great if we could directly control the Sankoujing Group!
Of course, it is impossible to control it, but it can be used.

As long as the benefits are sufficient, the lower classes will overthrow the upper classes. Isn't that an old traditional skill of the island nation?

The reason why he was arranged to come forward is because he is an ordinary person with weaknesses.

Unlike Nakamura Yasutoshi, Matsumoto Takumi has parents and loves his wife and daughter, so this is his biggest weakness, but it is precisely because of this reason that he is more likely to be appreciated by senior management.

Takumi Matsumoto can use the solution to this problem as a token of his allegiance to climb up the ladder!

Unexpectedly, he really climbed up, but climbed over the head of Kawagoe Ryoma!

But Lin Hao didn't care, since his goal had been achieved anyway.

Soon, Takumi Matsumoto transferred 350 billion yen of funds from another bank, and then invited all the investors of the Sunshine Plan to cash in their profits. Finally, he promoted the Sunshine Plan project with great fanfare.

Sure enough, after some investors received their principal and interest, the rest immediately asked to be paid only the interest, and as for the principal, they hoped to carry out the next round of Sunshine Factory Plan.

Afterwards, Takumi Matsumoto and the president of another branch came out in person to speak up and directly stabilized the emotions of investors.

In the fifteenth week, the Sunshine Project started to attract funds again. This time, in order to build up the confidence of depositors again, the interest redemption period was shortened to one quarter, instead of the previous six months.

Of course, just like before, we will resolutely not advertise. The people above us will definitely not advertise, because banks will be regulated if they do so.

Although supervision was not strict these days, once reported by other banks, the three wells collapsed.

Therefore, all of this was independently managed by Takumi Matsumoto, except that the money was kept in the bank.

But if you calculate carefully, you will immediately find that this money has secretly belonged to the "bank" from the beginning to the end, and this bank is called Sankoujing Bank.

"Hahahaha, you guys are doing a great job, keep it up, hurry up and keep going, this is a rare opportunity!"

As expected, although they did not give the dirty work to Kawagoe Ryoma, they actually threw it to Matsumoto Takumi.

But it doesn’t matter anymore, as long as the goal is achieved.

Originally, Lin Hao thought that Matsumoto Takumi could at most rely on this performance and then slowly rise to the top of the bank in the next few years. In fact, he would no longer be a capitalist, but a politician.

However, I never expected it!
People put all the money into Lin Hao's hands.

Of course, money cannot be transferred directly, but assets can be transferred.

Don’t forget that the most convenient means of transferring assets is valuable items such as gold.

As a financial project, the proportion of these so-called valuables in the asset statement also accounts for a large part, especially now that gold is appreciating, real estate is appreciating, and everything else is appreciating.

This means that Takumi Matsumoto has plenty of opportunities to turn money into fixed assets and then transfer them to others through various means without anyone noticing.

And this person is definitely not Lin Hao, but Ichiro Nakamori, who is currently the chairman of the Sakura Group!

Ichiro Nakamori does not have a high social status, but he is extremely capable. As long as the times develop, his social status will naturally be high.

The bank application had been approved a few months earlier.

This means that the Sakura Group, centered around Sakura Bank, will soon be officially listed!
So, now Lin Hao is using the money of the islanders and the relationship between the three wells to create a consortium of his own.

In the future, this consortium will focus on high-precision equipment and chips, and the rest will be about making money.

Financial investment, physical manufacturing, bubble real estate, money-burning Internet, in short, no money-making project is left out.

Thinking that the underworld society is still legal in the island country these days, Lin Hao arranged for Nakamura Yasutoshi to change his appearance and form the Sakura Society, a vibrant social group wearing black clothes.

Moreover, this company is affiliated with the Sakura Group and controls industries such as the film and entertainment industries.

All of this is done for the vigorous development of the Sakura Group.

"Next, work hard and climb up to become the top part of the island nation!" Lin Hao encouraged them.

Politicians? No, in the world of capital, capital is the most powerful entity, and politicians are just puppets of capital.

Lin Hao is really looking forward to such development and what it will become in the future.

Lin Hao felt that there was nothing else to do in the island country except developing the Sakura Group.

Or perhaps Lin Hao was tired of staying in the island country.

Those Showa beauties who will become famous in the future have either not made their debut yet or are not yet adults, and some are only a few years old, so they still need to be raised for a while.

As for developing the Sakura Group, Lin Hao felt that he had done enough.

The Sakura Group now has a very solid foundation. Lin Hao cannot take care of all matters. He must leave room for development for his subordinates.

Moreover, if the Sakura Group wants to develop, it will need to make large-scale acquisitions or control holdings of island companies.

The best opportunity is naturally during an economic crisis, and the second best opportunity is when the Ponzi scheme of the Three Wells explodes.

Only then will Lin Hao have the opportunity to acquire those potential island companies that are bankrupt or about to go bankrupt.

However, the Ponzi scheme of Sankoujing Bank will not be exposed in a short time. Lin Hao estimates that it will take at least half a year.

Therefore, there was no point for Lin Hao to stay in the island country, and he came here to enjoy himself, not to work like a slave and contribute to the economic development of the island country. Therefore, Lin Hao prepared to return to Hong Kong Island.

Although Lin Hao returned victorious this time, he was still as low-key as before, with no intention of making a big fuss at all.
