The two islanders who came over, one had a little doubt and uncertainty on his face, and the other had excitement on his face. Come over and bow directly.
"Yang Sang, I'm Hirakawa Itamasa. It's a great honor to see you here."
"From Kodansha?" The speaker was a bit short and had a mustache. Yang Dongxu instantly found relevant memories in his mind corresponding to this face.
"Hi." Hirakawa Itama's expression became even more excited.
He was not just excited. The person in front of him was the major shareholder of his publishing house and one of the most important shareholders on the board of directors. Although this director does not often appear in the publishing house, few people in the company even know him.
But as the person in charge of the European region of the publishing house and a senior executive in the company, he knew this very well. Kodansha owes a lot to the young man in front of us today. Not to mention that in the current Japanese epic comic creation, the person in front of me is like a god who monopolizes one third.
It stands to reason that given Japan's investment environment, it is impossible for a foreigner to occupy a sufficient share of many industries. Xenophobia is deeply ingrained in the island country, especially when capital is involved in the upper class.
For example, Yang Dongxu’s previous investment in SoftBank was eventually forced to leave. Although he cut off a piece of fat before leaving, it was a fact that he was forced to leave.
Compared to SoftBank, Yang Dongxu did not take root deeply, and finally had to bite the bullet and was forced to leave. He has been deeply involved in the comics industry a long time ago.
Although I have rarely drawn comics in recent years, and even in the island country, I only know that there is such a god, but this god has not shown his face for a long time.
But compared to his investment in SoftBank, Yang Dongxu can be said to be deeply rooted in comics and even animation-related industries. Not only does he directly or indirectly hold shares in major comics companies, he also owns shares in animation and animation-related peripheral products. Participated in in-depth operations.
As a new industry that is rapidly emerging in Japan and lacks brilliant achievements, the total value of animation in the island nation reached US$15.7 billion last year, in 2003, and the total value is still expanding crazily at an annual growth rate of more than 50%.
If you try to remove him from the industry, the entire industry will collapse like an earthquake, even if it finally recovers. But this industrial island country belongs to the first step, step by step.
Once it stops, or even a major change occurs that causes a setback, then Marvel in the United States and Yang Dongxu will quickly form an industrial chain directly from China with the major copyrights in their hands. They will be very troublesome opponents for the island country for a while.
One is to dominate the entire industry, and the majority is actually made by the island country. After all, the current shareholding ratio of Yang Dongxu and the capital controlled in the entire animation industry have reached saturation, and it will be difficult to move upward.
One is to directly eliminate Yang Dongxu and create a new opponent, and it is very likely that the old opponent will catch up and be overwhelmed. Therefore, even if the islanders are very reluctant, they still have to endure the existence of Yang Dongxu, a foreigner.
"I am Ueda Hirayama, the person in charge of Fuji Bank's European Region." Compared to Hirakawa's excitement, Ueda, who is tall and old but still has well-maintained black and thick hair, looked more normal.
But it was just normal, because he seemed to have seen the young man in front of him somewhere before, and his identity should be complicated, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Yang Dongxu, nice to meet you." Compared with Hepingchuan's superior-subordinate relationship, Ueda's side was undoubtedly a normal relationship expansion at the banquet, so Yang Dongxu reached out and shook the other person's hand.
"Mr. Yang is from China."
"Yes, from Huaxia Anhui Province." Yang Dongxu nodded.
Ueda's eyes suddenly lit up, "Mr. Yang is from Huaxiu..."
He finally remembered why the young man in front of him looked familiar. Fuji Bank belonged to the Fuji Foundation. As one of the six major financial groups in the island country, the Fuji Foundation was ranked among the best in the world.
Among the industries involved in the Fuji Group, textiles are among them. In recent years, Chinese textile companies can be said to have emerged suddenly. They have completely integrated the resources of the Chinese textile industry and become a giant in the world's textile market with absolute advantages.
As one of the overseas directors of Fuji Bank, one of Ueda Itamasa's jobs is to find some high-quality companies to lend to them to obtain high-quality shares. Huaxiu Group is one of the high-quality targets. Unfortunately, it has been dismissive of foreign investment from the beginning to the end.
"I have made a lot of investments in China, including some shares in Huaxiu." Yang Dongxu said with a faint smile on his face.
Yu Yi and Zhang Cheng stood aside, maintaining their attitude as subordinates, smiling as they watched their big boss chatting with others without speaking or participating.
"I have admired Huaxiu for a long time, but it's a pity that I have never had the opportunity to meet their senior management." Ueda Hirayama looked regretful.
"No senior executives from Huaxiu are here today. If I have a chance to meet you, I will introduce you to them." Yang Dongxu's smile did not change.
He understood the meaning of Ueda's words, but Huaxiu did not accept foreign capital investment. This was originally the rule set by his big boss.
So now that I understood what Ueda meant, I naturally lost interest in contacting him. Of course, Huaxiu does not accept foreign investment, and there is no conflict with maintaining good relations with people from Fuji Bank.
So after politely refusing, seeing the disappointment in Ueda's eyes, he couldn't help but continue: "Mr. Ueda is coming here this time, is he also interested in real estate investment in Dubai?
It just so happens that I am also preparing to make some investments there. Let me introduce to you. These are Ms. Yu Yiyu and Mr. Zhang Zhang, the senior executives of Hurricane Construction. "
"Hurricane building!" The originally disappointed Ueda's eyes suddenly lit up again, as the person in charge of the bank. He was transferred from Asia before. Since he knows Huaxiu, he is naturally no stranger to hurricane architecture.
On the other hand, Pingchuan next to him didn't have much feeling for either Huaxiu or Hurricane Architecture. After all, they didn't belong to the same industry. Moreover, animation is an emerging industry, and it is normal for there to be barriers between it and other traditional industries.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Ueda and Mr. Hirakawa." Yu Yi and Zhang Cheng greeted the two people with smiles.
His big boss personally introduced the two people to Ueda, and also mentioned the real estate in Dubai. Yu Yi and Zhang Cheng instantly understood what Yang Dongxu meant.
Obviously, Yang Dongxu seems to feel that the investment momentum of Hurricane Construction and Rising Sun is not big enough, and he is ready to bundle some large capital into his own ship.
"Hello, hello, nice to meet you." I was full of disappointment when I heard that Yang Dongxu declined the offer, but I didn't expect to see another big fish when I turned around.
Hurricane Architecture, anyone who is at least a little concerned about the domestic economy of that large Eastern country cannot ignore this name. If it can be related to Hurricane Construction, even if it is not in China, it is just related to the other party's overseas investment, this is a good start, isn't it?
For a while, Ueda was very eager to chat with Yu Yi and Zhang Cheng, and during the conversation. Yu Yi also took the initiative to push the charter forward.
Yang Dongxu's meaning is very obvious. She and Zhang Zhang are responsible for the investment in Dubai this time. In many things, her role is mainly to supervise and study at the same time, while Zhang Zhang is responsible for training and learning on specific matters.
After the Dubai project is successfully completed, Zhang Zhang's ability will definitely rise to a higher level again, and then he can leave the position of assistant to the chairman and be promoted to other departments to take charge of his own duties.
When the two sides were chatting, Yang Dongxu and Heikawa Ban were chatting happily next to them. Although he is always paying attention to the development of the animation industry in the island country.
But the information collected below is different from hearing the report from the specific person in charge. For example, regarding some of Japan's latest policies on the animation industry, the information collected by outsiders is not as comprehensive as the information obtained by the top executives of the industry.
Of course, as one of the biggest beneficiaries of animation in the island country at present, a person who is deeply rooted in this industry cannot be driven away by the people of the island country.
No matter which company he holds shares in, Yang Dongxu has his own informants and confidants, so he can still obtain some important news in a timely manner without any hindrance.
Although the conversation is speculative, this is a banquet after all, not a living room. When someone wanted to marry Yang Dongxu, a young man who had a good relationship with Prince Kurk, Ueda and Heikawa could only say goodbye without knowing anything.
However, when they left, the two parties exchanged business cards with each other. Especially on the charter side, although they only briefly chatted with Ueda, both parties were very interested in each other and had the same goal of being a real estate investor in Dubai. So I made an appointment to continue discussing it tomorrow.
After dealing with a few more waves of people, Yang Dongxu walked towards Prince Kurza with a wine glass in hand. The banquet was almost over here.
He didn't care about the banquet when he first came. The main purpose of coming was just to push Yu Yi and Zhang Cheng out, so he only cared about eating and nothing else.
Now when Prince Kirk walked over, plus the people who came over just now to meet him, he found that there were many oriental faces in this high-end banquet.
However, some of these oriental faces were of Chinese descent, and no one else was seen in the real Chinese companies except him. After all, China's main energy is currently focused on domestic construction. For foreign countries, exports are the main focus. Real overseas investment is still in the early stages of expansion, so the number of Chinese businessmen overseas is not very large.
On the other hand, in economically powerful countries such as Japan and South Korea, the banquets of some upper-class societies in Europe and the United States are much more active than Chinese businessmen. From the corner of his eye, he looked around as he walked.
A familiar face caught his eye. It was a standard white beauty. The other person didn't know him, but he knew her.
There is no way that this beautiful woman who looks so good in both appearance and figure will be so famous in future generations. Trump’s daughter was already very famous before she became the president. I didn’t expect that she would be at this banquet. Met.
