you at the airport myself, and then arrange hotel accommodation for you. I didn't expect to encounter so many things."Su Shoudao said hurriedly, "there is no need for Mr. Ito to be so polite. The fri...at this time, Kobayashi Pharmaceutical headquarters in Tokyo is preparing to hold an emergency shareholders' meeting.
during this period, the president of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd., that is, Jiro Kobayashi, suddenly disappeared after going to China, and the whole Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Company was leaderless.
at first, these shareholders of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical were still trying every means to find out the whereabouts of Kobayashi Jiro.
but they made a lot of efforts and attempts, and did not find Jiro Kobayashi. After
, they immediately contacted Yoshihiko Ito, the leader of the Ito family.
contacted Yoshihiko Ito because shareholders of Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals know that Ito is bullish on Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals and Kobayashi Jiro, and hopes to recruit Kobayashi Jiro as his son-in-law and then take a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals.
the reason why Jiro Kobayashi went to China, in the final analysis, is to pursue Yoshihiko Ito's daughter, Kaiko Ito.
as a result, Ito Caizi came back, but her follower, Jiro Kobayashi, disappeared, which made the Kobayashi family unable to figure it out.
Yoshihiko Ito is also very concerned about this matter. after all, he is very optimistic about Kobayashi and Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals. If Kobayashi Jiro is missing, he will not be able to be his son-in-law.
moreover, Jiuxuan Weisan has insufficient production capacity and has not been exported to overseas markets, so local Japanese consumers know nothing about this magic medicine. They still regard Kobayashi Weisan as the best stomach medicine, and the sales of Kobayashi Weisan in the Japanese market have not been affected in any way.
so, according to Yoshihiko Ito, Kobayashi's future is still bright.
in order to miss the opportunity to buy a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceutical, Yoshihiko Ito also sent a lot of people to look everywhere for Kobayashi Jiro's whereabouts.
but unfortunately, they do not have a strong intelligence network in China at all, and they simply cannot find out any information about Jiro Kobayashi.
as a result, Jiro Kobayashi seems to have completely disappeared in the eyes of the Kobayashi family and Yoshihiko Ito.
over time, Yoshihiko Ito first gave up the search for Jiro Kobayashi.
he felt that instead of looking for Jiro Kobayashi, it would be better to ask the Kobayashi family to elect a new president and cooperate with the new president himself.
then, under the operation of Yoshihiko Ito, the Kobayashi family also gave up.
after giving up looking for Jiro Kobayashi, the Kobayashi family began to move on to the next stage, preparing to restructure Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals and redivide the Kobayashi Pharmaceutical cake.
Kobayashi Pharmaceutical was developed by Ichiro Kobayashi's father, Masao Kobayashi, over decades. Although many members of the Kobayashi family are involved, they do not directly own a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals.
after Masao Kobayashi died, Ichiro Kobayashi was labeled as patricide, and Kobayashi naturally became the sole heir to Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals.
but now Jiro Kobayashi is also missing.
according to Japanese law, if Jiro Kobayashi's whereabouts are still unknown within a certain period of time, it can be concluded from the legal level that the person is dead and his relatives have the right to inherit all his property.
in that way, all shares of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical will become a midday meal for members of the Kobayashi family.
Ichiro Kobayashi's own uncle, Masayashi Kobayashi, has temporarily succeeded as acting president of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. to exercise management power in place of Kobayashi Jiro.
Yoshihiko Ito, who has been eyeing Kobayashi Pharmaceutical's shares, immediately focused his attention on Kobayashi Yoshihiko.
at this time, he called Kobayashi directly. As soon as he came up, he said, "Congratulations, Mr. Kobayashi, on taking up the position of acting president!"
(adsbygoogle = indo.adsbygoogle | | []). Ush ({});
Kobayashi said respectfully: "Thank you for your congratulations, Mr. Ito. My acting president is only a temporary agent. When my nephew Jiro Kobayashi comes back, I will still give up the position to him."
Yoshihiko Ito sneered and said, "I guess Jiro Kobayashi will not come back. You, the acting president, will soon become the official president!"
Kobayashi was delighted in his heart, but he said very honestly, "to tell you the truth, Mr. Ito, I still think about it day and night. I hope Jiro can return safely."
Yoshihiko Ito smiled and said, "Mr. Kobayashi, I'm calling not to be polite to you, but to have a business deal with you."
Masayashi Kobayashi said hurriedly, "Mr. Ito, please speak!"
Yoshihiko Ito said solemnly: "I have always been very optimistic about the future of Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals, and you should know that."
"Yes!" Kobayashi said respectfully: "I have heard of this for a long time!" Thank you for your attention to Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals! "
Yoshihiko Ito added: "as for me, I have always wanted to buy a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals. I had a very deep conversation with Jiro Kobayashi before, but it is a pity that he suddenly disappeared, so I can only continue to push this matter with you now."
Kobayashi said hurriedly, "this is no problem. I just don't know how do you want to push forward, Mr. Ito"
Yoshihiko Ito said: "I want to make a deal with Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals and two deals with you personally."
Kobayashi said, "Please speak."
Mr Ito said: "the deal with Kobayashi is an agreement in which I intend to take a 30 per cent stake in Kobayashi at a valuation of $15 billion."
Kobayashi Yoshihiko said awkwardly, "Mr. Ito, the valuation of Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals is probably more than 20 billion US dollars. Your asking price of 15 billion US dollars is really a little less."
Yoshihiko Ito said faintly: "Don't worry, next I have to discuss two deals with you."
said, Yoshihiko Ito added: "first of all, as long as you can get me to buy a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals at a valuation of $15 billion, I will privately give you $200m in cash."
"second, as long as you help me make this happen, I will not only give you 200 million US dollars in cash, but also consolidate your position in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals. At that time, I can assure you that whether Kobayashi Jiro will come back or not, you will remain firmly in the position of president of Kobayashi Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd."
although the Ito family is one of the top families in Japan, it doesn't mean that Yoshihiko Ito is a generous person.
he has always wanted to buy a stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals to make money from Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals, and he has always wanted to keep the price of the stake as low as possible.
if it is valued at more than $20 billion, he wants to buy 30% of the shares and will have to pay at least $6 billion to $7 billion in cash.
however, if the valuation can be reduced to $15 billion, which is also a 30 per cent stake, you only need to pay $4.5 billion, saving more than $2 billion.
when Kobayashi heard this, his first thought was that he didn't want to make such a big opening for Yoshihiko Ito. After all, it was a huge price difference of more than two billion US dollars.
however, he was vaguely moved by the thought that he would be able to return cash to himself in private and ensure that he would remain president without any interference.
after thinking it over, he said, "Mr. Ito, since you have made it so clear, I will not hide it from you. If you can privately return me US $500 million and make sure that I am firmly in the position of president, then I will try my best to promote the Ito family's stake in Kobayashi Pharmaceuticals when I have a meeting later!"u have to deal cards well for me in this game. You see, after losing so much, it's time for me to win, right"the official was trying to be polite when he suddenly felt an invisible energy rush into hi...
