This is Jiang Chen's first visit to Japan.
As he stepped off the private plane, he could clearly see the depression in Tokyo from the airport.
There are only a few people in such a huge international airport, which is really unimaginable. A motorcade was waiting at the gate of the airport. Those who picked up the plane were officials from the Future Group's branch in Japan and the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan... It seems a bit ambiguous to use Chinese grammar to abbreviate the name of this department, so I will mention his full name here. Name - Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, its role is roughly similar to China's Ministry of Commerce and Ministry of Economy and Trade.
"Welcome, Mr. Jiang Chen, I'm Takagi Yosuke, please give me some advice." Takagi Yosuke once served as the ambassador of China, his Chinese is very fluent, and his attitude towards Jiang Chen is also very respectful.
However, Japanese people have this attitude towards everyone, and Jiang Chen can't tell whether he is sincere or has ulterior motives.
"Hello, Mr. Takagi." Jiang Chen shook his hand politely.
After some pleasantries, Jiang Chen learned his identity.
This guy's background is quite unexpected. He is actually the deputy minister of the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.
After getting into the car sent by the branch company to pick him up, Takagi Yosuke followed suit very familiarly. While chatting with Jiang Chen in the car, he inquired about the purpose of Jiang Chen's trip.
"Mr. Jiang Chen, with all due respect, the situation in Tokyo is very chaotic right now. It's really not a good time to travel."
"Haha, Mr. Takagi is joking." Jiang Chen laughed. He did not respond to Takagi Yosuke's probing, but changed the topic with a smile, "I wonder where in your country is more fun?"
Takagi Yosuke was stunned for a moment, but soon returned to normal and smiled.
“If you’re planning on sightseeing, I recommend Mt. Fuji.”
…
Of course Jiang Chen was not here for sightseeing. As Takagi Yosuke said, there was nothing to see in Japan at this time.
There were very few vehicles on the street. Except for the traffic lights, the car Jiang Chen and his group were in never stopped. There are very few pedestrians on both sides of the street. You can hardly see people shopping. Even if there are people passing by, they are in a hurry.
Although the T-virus leak occurred only in Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo, it paralyzed the entire order of Tokyo. Thousands of companies filed for bankruptcy protection overnight, hundreds of thousands of people lost their jobs, and the Prime Minister of Japan declared a state of emergency last night. Citizens who lack food and daily necessities need to go to designated locations to receive rations...
All Japanese people were surprised to find that their internationally "high-spirited" prime minister turned gray on his temples as if overnight.
Not only the citizens of Tokyo are in dire straits, but the quality of life of people in other parts of Japan has also been significantly reduced.
The tourism, real estate, and retail industries were the first to bear the brunt. While suffering a devastating blow, the economic crisis spread to other areas. However, the most serious losses are not these, but the yen itself.
Some time ago, Prime Minister Benito's quantitative easing policy when implementing Abenomics has caused the exchange rate of the Japanese yen to the US dollar to fall to a maximum of 134:1. Although there was some improvement in 2017, it has never returned to the level of 2014.
Before the outbreak of the virus, the international exchange rate was approximately 106 yen per U.S. dollar. After the outbreak of the T-virus, this exchange rate directly became 1:>
Feel the difference of five times.
Tanaka's T virus turned Japan's bourgeoisie into the middle class overnight, the middle class into the proletariat, and the proletariat into refugees begging on the streets.
Just yesterday, Future Man Group has injected US$5.2 billion into its branch account in Tokyo, preparing to acquire small and medium-sized enterprises on the verge of bankruptcy in Japan, as well as land, real estate, and skyscrapers that have greatly depreciated in value...
As for Jiang Chen's arrival, Japanese politicians and entrepreneurs can be said to be both happy and worried. Fortunately, the country's monetary and financial system has collapsed, and Japan is indeed in urgent need of foreign investors to enter the market to inject vitality into this shaky economy. However, what they were afraid of was that Jiang Chen was not taking the money to save their economy, but to cut their flesh.
After getting off the bus, Jiang Chen said goodbye to Takagi Yosuke and was led into the company building by CEO Ren Pengfei.
The building of the Japanese branch of Futureman Group is located in Shibuya District, Tokyo. Because a large number of high-tech companies are gathered here, Shibuya is also known as the "Silicon Valley of Japan". Although it is located next to Shinagawa District, which is completely quarantined, the business of Futureman Group has not been greatly affected.
However, it can be expected that for a long period of time in the future, Futureman Group's business in Japan will experience negative profit growth.
In addition to future human biological vaccines.
"Mr. Chairman, I have reserved a room for you at the Hilton Hotel. Do you want me to take you to your hotel first?" Ren Pengfei asked respectfully.
"No, I don't plan to stay in a hotel." Jiang Chen shook his head.
Ren Pengfei was stunned for a moment.
Not staying in a hotel? If you don't stay in a hotel, why don't you sleep in the company? But there are no beds in the company
"Contact the most famous real estate developer in Tokyo for me."
"Daiwa House Construction and Mitsui Fudosan, these two real estate companies are basically the largest real estate developers in Tokyo."
“Which company has the widest range of operations in Tokyo?”
"It should be Yamato Fangjian." Ren Pengfei replied after thinking for a moment.
Jiang Chen nodded.
"That's it. You contact Yamato Housing for me. I'm going to buy a few houses."
There were just a few exits, and Ren Pengfei was immediately shocked by the boss's arrogance. But when he thought about Wall Street's assessment of Jiang Chen's assets, he didn't think anything of it and nodded in agreement.
"yes!"
After Ren Pengfei went out, Jiang Chen sat directly on his office chair and looked at the layout of the office.
The white birch wood decoration has no special highlights, but it looks very comfortable. The floor-to-ceiling windows behind it can directly overlook the street scene in the most prosperous area of Shibuya, and the lighting is also very good. Jiang Chen originally planned to buy a newer skyscraper for the branch of Futureman Group, but looking at it this way, it seems that this is not necessary
Not long after, Ren Pengfei walked in with a short but shrewd middle-aged man.
Before Jiang Chen could speak, the Japanese man nodded and introduced himself with a smile.
"I, Ken Koizumi, General Manager of Tokyo District of Yamato Housing Construction, did not expect to be able to see Jiang Chen here. It is truly a blessing..."
"No need to be polite. I, Jiang Chen, plan to buy several properties in Tokyo. Can your company recommend any good properties?" Jiang Chen said straight to the point.
Koizumi Ken was not dissatisfied at all with Jiang Chen interrupting him. When he heard Jiang Chen's words, his little eyes almost sparkled with laughter.
"Of course! We at Yamato Housing & Construction have the most abundant housing supply in Neon! Not only that, if Mr. Jiang Chen likes a house that we don't have, we can also act as a house buying agent. Whether it's luxury, location, or We guarantee your satisfaction with the price. If Mr. Jiang is willing to pay in US dollars, we can also give you a discount!" (.)
