Chapter 4372: 2% Absolute Equity

Witnessed by the legal advisor of the Ethiopian French government, Akio Toyoda and Lin Feng formally signed the Toyota share transfer agreement. (Please search the Bayi Chinese website, the fastest updated novel website!)

However, this share made Lin Feng very dissatisfied. Akio Toyoda actually only holds 2% of Toyota Motor's shares, which is far lower than Lin Feng's estimate. In Lin Feng's opinion, Akio Toyoda's control over Toyota Motor, no matter how small the shares he holds, must be around 11%. This is only 2%, what kind of airplane is this?

Based on Toyota Motor's current market value of US$100 million, this 2% stake is worth approximately US$3.6 billion. Of course, money is not what Lin Feng values. What Lin Feng values ​​​​is the share ratio. 2%, it’s useless even if you get it. Even though this is a share with actual voting rights, it's useless. The shares are too few.

"Ling, these 2% shares are worth approximately US$3.6 billion based on the current market value. I can only transfer so much to you!" Lin Feng said expressionlessly, secretly exerting pressure through the terrorists.

really!

"What! It's only 3.6 billion U.S. dollars! What do you mean! Are you kidding me!" The leader immediately became angry, pointing at Akio Toyoda and yelling, "Do you look down on me, so you are kidding me here!"

Akio Toyoda was extremely calm this time because he was not playing tricks. He really only holds 2% of Toyota Motor shares.

"Ling, I only have so many shares in my hands. Our Toyota family does not own many shares in Toyota Motor. Counting other uncles and uncles, our Toyota family's total holdings in Toyota Motor will not exceed 5%. ." Akio Toyoda said helplessly.

In fact, he already holds the largest number of shares. Owns 2% of the shares, as for other uncles and uncles. The amount held by each person will not exceed 1%. As for why the Toyota family owns so few shares and can still control Toyota Motors and have absolute say in Toyota Motors, this has to start with the history of the Toyota family and the Mitsui family.

When Kiichiro Toyoda founded Toyota Motor, its financial sponsor came from the Mitsui Zaibatsu, which had become a financial giant. As for the shares at the time of its creation, Kiichiro Toyoda only owned 10% of Toyota Motor's shares, while the Mitsui Zaibatsu owned 10% of the shares, with almost absolute controlling rights.

This is a completely disproportionate holding. This made Kiichiro Toyoda extremely worried. Especially with the success of Toyota Motor, Kiichiro Toyoda is particularly worried. Subsequently, he formulated a family rule that only the men of the Toyota family knew, which was to marry a woman from the Mitsui family to consolidate the Toyota family's say in Toyota Motor and later the Toyota Group. Therefore, Akio Toyoda’s wife is Yuko, the daughter of Mitsui & Co.’s Vice President Mamoru Tabuchi. His father, Shoichiro Toyoda, married Hiroko, the daughter of Mitsui Takacho, the director of Mitsui Banking Corporation. It can be said that both father and son are sons-in-law of the Mitsui Consortium.

Not only that,

Akio's cousin Tatsuya Toyoda married Mari, the daughter of former Sumitomo Bank president Shozo Hota, and continued to consolidate the power of his Toyota family. After all, the Sumitomo Foundation is also one of the six largest conglomerates in Japan. And Akio Toyoda’s grandmother is the wife of Kiichiro Toyoda. She is also the daughter of Shinchi Iida, the president of Takashimaya, a high-end Japanese department store. This marriage ensured the Toyota family's controlling interest in Toyota Motor.

Therefore, Akio Toyoda can control Toyota Motor with 2% of the shares. And this, to the outside world, is extremely unbelievable. And now Toyota's largest holding company is the Mitsui Consortium. The shares he holds exceed %.

In other words, even if Lin Feng owns these 2% shares, it is useless. This made Lin Feng look gloomy. A plan that came to my mind. It turned out to be completely useless, which made Lin Feng very unhappy. However, I am even more wary of the background of Japan's six major financial groups.

In the past few years, it seems that I have been going smoothly and I have not taken Japan seriously. At this moment, it seems that I am really overconfident and optimistic. I underestimated the six major financial groups in Japan. As far as Toyota is concerned, the Mitsui Consortium firmly controls the life and death of Toyota Motors. Toyota Motors will change owners at a moment's notice. Moreover, Kiichiro Toyoda relied on marrying a woman from the Mitsui family to maintain the controlling rights of the Toyota family, but the Mitsui consortium used this to completely control Toyota Motors.

In Japan, or globally, women generally live longer than men. Once Akio Toyoda and Akio Toyoda both die, all the shares of the Toyota family will be in the hands of the Mitsui Consortium. Although not many, Toyota has completely adopted the Mitsui surname from now on. Of course, the Mitsui Consortium's goal is not just this. What's more important is probably the Toyota Group behind Toyota cars. A huge group that controls five of the world's most powerful companies. If the male member of the Toyota family dies, then the entire Toyota Group will belong to the Mitsui Consortium.

From this point of view, we can know how sophisticated the Mitsui Consortium is. There are six such consortiums in Japan. As for the relationship between them, Lin Feng believes that it is absolutely complicated, but it also coexists with rationality. Lin Feng believes that these six major consortiums are a consensus reached after decades of confrontation. Japan can only have six major consortiums, and emerging It is no longer possible for any company to become a consortium.

Just like Kiichiro Toyoda, relying on the success of Toyota cars, he founded the Toyota Group. The Toyota Group has five globally powerful companies, but so what, it is still just a group and cannot become a consortium. Moreover, this group may completely belong to the Mitsui Consortium at any time.

Shrewd and calculating! For the first time, Lin Feng truly realized the horror of ‘G’. Before this, although he had conflicts with ‘G’ repeatedly, most of the conflicts were with Arroyo Mellon. Arroyo Mellon was too young to become the heir of a real wealthy giant, and he was too arrogant, so he was taken advantage of by Wang Meng and others and attacked. If it were the leaders of the Morgan Consortium or the Rockefeller Consortium, they would never be in danger. If it wasn’t for Arroyo Mellon, who wanted to die and admired his desperate scene before his death, he would not be caught by Wang Meng.

As for the fact that ‘G’ didn’t really attack him in the past few years, I’m afraid he was not qualified enough for them to deal with him with all their strength. Or there are other reasons. Regarding this point, Lin Feng has limited intelligence clues in his hands. Including Kevin Mitnick, the world’s number one hacker, he has been searching for information about ‘G’ on the entire network, but he has not gained much. There is almost no information about them on the entire network.

Kevin Mitnick's answer to this is that either this 'g' does not exist at all, or their information is not connected to the external network at all, that is to say, it is completely disconnected from the Internet. Therefore, he cannot find it.

But in any case, Lin Feng understood the terribleness of 'g' through Toyota Motor, which is even higher than his own evaluation.

But, what should I do at this moment? This % share is really a chicken rib! It is tasteless to eat, but it is a pity to throw it away. You say you don't want it, you spent a lot of effort to get it, but the result is only % of the shares. What's the use of % shares? You can't take power at all, and you can't even get any seats on the board of directors. Lin Feng originally wanted Toyota's various automotive technologies, so don't even think about it. In this case, what's the use of this share?

"Mr. Lin, sign the contract!" Seeing that Lin Feng's face was not right, Akio Toyoda naturally guessed what he was thinking. Obviously, he was not satisfied with his shares, thinking that this % was too little and could not meet Lin Feng's wishes at all. If it was more than %, then Lin Feng might be able to toss around in Toyota Motor. But a mere % is really something that won't even make a bubble if you throw it into the water.

For the first time, Akio Toyoda felt that he had the upper hand.

"Mr. Lin, let's sign the contract!" Akio Toyoda said with a smile.

Lin Feng pouted. This guy is really getting ahead of himself. But should he sign the contract or not? Lin Feng thought about it and immediately had an idea.

"Mr. Toyota, are you sure you want to transfer the stock to me? I personally think that this transfer is not appropriate. If you transfer it to me and then say that you are under duress, then I will waste my money! I am not that stupid, so forget it. At worst, I will lend you the money personally. The interest rate is not high, % per month, what do you think?" Lin Feng suddenly changed his proposal.

But this time, Akio Toyoda didn't agree. The loan must be repaid. No matter what the situation is, it must be repaid. And Lin Feng also paid a monthly interest of %, damn, the annual interest is a full %, which can be regarded as usury. If you calculate it, the interest of 600 million US dollars will be as high as 600 million US dollars in a year! This business is too easy to do.

Moreover, this will open Pandora's box. What if this damn black guy forces me to borrow tens of billions of dollars? Although this sounds incredible, but here, even the most incredible things may happen. He can't agree to such a thing.

"Mr. Lin, you are very sincere, but the price of your sincerity is too high. If I have to pay Toyota shares for the safety of so many guests before, so what! Life is the most important!" At this time, Akio Toyoda naturally had to make a gesture and pretend. Anyway, the stocks were already planned to be transferred, and he would take the opportunity to get more positive images to trick Lin Feng.

Although he had been embarrassed in the scene just now. But that was forced, and no one could do anything about it. Now if you can get some image, get more. Anyway, it's just selling your mouth.

"Are you sure?" Lin Feng asked again.

"I'm sure!" Akio Toyoda nodded.

Lin Feng smiled.

"Then the deal!"
