Chapter 410: Going with the flow

Chapter 410: Going with the flow
The president of Japan Starlight Chemical Co., Ltd., Matsujiro Koinuma, is anxiously waiting for the vice president of Mitsui Chemicals at the headquarters of Mitsui Chemicals in Tokyo.

Starlight Chemical is a subsidiary of Mitsui, and Mitsui Chemicals is the parent company of the Mitsui Group of Japan that focuses on petroleum and chemicals.

The Tianjin petroleum refining equipment contract with China was led by Mitsui Chemicals.

The technical section chief who is being sent underground to Tianjin is a technician from Seikyo Chemical Co., Ltd.

The reason why the underground was so anxious to get the second project payment was also because of Xiao Quan, the president of Xingguang Chemical.

For Mitsui Chemicals, a large chemical company with an annual revenue of over 1 billion US dollars, the Tianjin project is a tentacles to penetrate into the market of New China.

It is not that the Mitsui Group does not want to monopolize several projects in New China, but unfortunately other Japanese groups have the same plan for them.
New China had four chemical fiber projects: Tianjin, Liaoning, Shanghai, and Sichuan, and Japan intervened in three of them.

In addition to the Liaoning petrochemical fiber project, which is jointly built by France, Italy and the Federal Republic of Germany, it also has the fastest construction cycle and has already started the second cycle of construction.

The office of the vice president of Mitsui Chemicals is not like an ordinary office. This floor is decorated in traditional Japanese style, with rockery, flowing water, and a tea room specifically for welcoming guests.

Sitting in the tea room and listening to the sound of the bamboo tube ticking back and forth is really elegant.

"Xiaoquan-san, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." The vice president of Mitsui Chemical is named Mitsui Fujiba, a direct descendant of the Mitsui Group. It is precisely because he is a direct descendant that he serves as vice president. The president of the Mitsui Group is Fujita, who married into the Mitsui family.

Mitsui Fujibana was wearing a traditional Japanese black haori with wide sleeves. After entering the tea room, he knelt down opposite the puppy and waved his hands behind him twice. Immediately, a waitress in a colorful kimono came in with small steps, knelt in front of them, and poured tea on the small table in front of him and the puppy.

"Please!" Mitsui gestured to the little dog for tea. After drinking a cup, Mitsui closed his eyes and was intoxicated. "As expected, Chinese tea is still very delicious. Thank you for the tea, little dog."

Although Xiaoquan was wearing a suit, his kneeling posture was very correct. He bowed his head solemnly and flattered loudly: "Hey, Mitsui-kun, this is one of the few opportunities for me to show my respect for you."

"You also know that we at Xingguang Chemical are building a petrochemical fiber plant in China, so we have the opportunity to obtain such high-quality Longjing tea."

"Souga," Mitsui nodded and smiled, "Drink again."

"Hi!"

After three rounds, Mitsui played with the Jianzhan in his hand, squinted his eyes, and slowly spoke: "Mr. Xiaoquan, there is an old saying in China that one does not visit a temple for no reason. Why are you here today?"

The puppy did not answer immediately, but looked at the waitress beside him.

Mitsui immediately said: "You all go down."

"Hi" As the waitress left the tea room, the puppy "Mitsui-kun" narrated to Mitsui the information sent back from Tianjin, and expressed his own opinions.

"If there is a wealthy businessman in Hong Kong who is willing to use the land in Tokyo as collateral, not only can our Xingguang Chemical get the second project payment in time,

At the same time, Sumitomo Mitsui Bank can also earn a huge amount of interest and open up channels to wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong, which is the best of both worlds.

I wonder what you think, Mitsui-kun?" Mitsui Teng half-closed his eyes and tapped the small square table in front of him with his index finger. After a long time, he opened his eyes, looked at the little dog opposite him, and asked: "This is indeed a good idea, but..."

"You have to know that we, Mitsui Chemicals, have signed a contract with the Chinese government. Now that we have introduced a third party to provide advance payment, there will be a certain interest difference on future payments.

"In addition, the money that the Chinese government will pay in the future will also be paid to us, and there is no way to pay it to the wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong;"

"Finally, will the Chinese government agree to our doing this? Will we lose the big picture by doing the small?"

"As expected of you, Mitsui-kun!" The little dog moved out from behind the small table on his knees, bent his upper body on the ground, raised his butt high, and complimented loudly: "We have also considered the points you mentioned."

"The key is the attitude of the Chinese government. But if our Sumitomo Mitsui Bank can come forward and openly provide low-interest loans, or even interest-free loans, can this cooperation be achieved?"

"After that, we can secretly get a second loan from Hong Kong's wealthy people with sufficient collateral and earn corresponding interest."

"Hey, Xiaoquan, your idea is feasible, but the wealthy people in Hong Kong have to use the properties in Hong Kong as collateral. What is the property in Tokyo you just mentioned?"

"Hey, I heard from the underground that businessmen from Hong Kong want to invest in real estate in Tokyo, but due to our country's policies, they cannot invest directly and need to find corresponding partners." The puppy lying on the ground was overjoyed. As long as Mitsui Fujibana did not object immediately, there would be hope.

As long as he receives the second payment from Tianjin Petrochemical before the end of this year, he will be able to give himself more bonuses and dividends. Although the bulk of it has to be handed over, a small portion will be enough for him to have a happy new year.

Especially the gentle and soft Meiko who I raised outside will definitely give me more tricks.

"So, Hong Kong's wealthy businessmen hope to find the right channels to invest in our country, but they also want to take a leading role, which requires our support."

"Swoosh!" Mitsui nodded in satisfaction, a smile appearing on his stiff face, "Our Mitsui family welcomes friends from Xiangjiang to come to Tokyo to do real estate business."

"As for their concerns about using our Mitsui family's status? It's not impossible." Mitsui glanced at Xiaoquan, "Xiaoquan, the Hong Kong tycoon has established a real estate company in Tokyo. You will come forward to serve as the legal representative. I will meet with them."

"We can own a small portion of the shares and contribute the corresponding amount of money. I will also make a call to Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, whether it is an interest-free loan or a loan using the shares of the real estate company."

"Okay, wait for my good news."

After hearing the report from Xiaoquan, Mitsui immediately wanted to intervene and cooperate with the real estate developers in Hong Kong. Although he was a direct descendant of the Mitsui family, his say in Mitsui Chemical was far less than that of Fujita, who married into the family.

This is also a method unique to Japan. If a family does not have someone with sufficient ability, they will find someone with strong ability and invite him to marry into the family to lead the development of the family. This is not only the case with Mitsui, but also the Panasonic family and the Sumitomo family.

Mitsui Fujibana first found the Japanese ambassador to China and conveyed the offer of an interest-free loan and the provision of follow-up technology and equipment as soon as possible. After obtaining permission, he immediately met with Hong Kong's wealthy shops and real estate companies.

Finally, Xiangri Real Estate Company successfully entered the Japanese market with Heung Kong Land holding 65%, Mitsui holding 30% and Xiaoquan holding 5%.

Technical data and second-phase equipment from Tianjin were also shipped on board.
Wang Deming took Li Dongdong to stay in Tianjin for a month. After finishing all the work, they went to Tianjin Port to find Mr. Li.
