Chapter 523: Dismemberment of Toyota Group, "5 Trillion Yen Special Unemployment Fund" Established
The island nation of Tokyo.
After a night of rest, Yao Nana and Lan Junyi chose to split up.
Yao Nana handles Toyota Group business and is responsible for board members and compensation guidance after high-level layoffs.
Since there are three strong men, Yan Hai, Zhang Yang and Xu Guoqiang, and the dismissal compensation is calculated according to the highest standards, even if some executives are not happy, they can only take the money and leave the company in the end.
Lan Junyi and Mo Yuancheng went to a villa area in Tokyo to choose a house suitable for long-term living. Because taking over the Toyota Group is not a short-term operation and requires long-term management, it is impossible to live in a hotel every day.
"Koichi Sato, from now on, you will serve as the general manager of the marketing department."
"Kaneko Yukiji, you will be transferred to the automobile production plant to be responsible for secretarial work. You need to prepare reports on production materials and research and development progress and send them to my email every day."
"Shunsuke Tamura, you take over the public relations department."
"Mikami Fengjing..."
According to Chen Xing's instructions, Yao Nana fired a large number of group executives. After showing off her majesty, she immediately began to show her kindness and promoted many people in the group to at least one level.
For ordinary employees, they do not regard the company as their own. They will support and trust whoever promotes them or increases their salary.
To put it bluntly, workplace relationships are similar to fair-weather friends.
If you have wine and meat, then we are friends. When we drink wine and eat meat, neither of us cares about our usual personalities or whether we have done anything dirty.
But what if you have no wine or meat?
Sorry about that.
The friendship ends here.
Just when Yao Nana had made arrangements and was thinking about going to the automobile production plant to inspect, her cell phone suddenly rang.
"President?"
Looking at Chen Xing's name, Yao Nana quickly left the conference room and found a relatively private space to answer the phone.
"President, are you looking for me?"
"How is the progress of Toyota Group's takeover?"
Chen Xing got straight to the point.
"I thought I would report to you tonight, but I didn't expect you to call me. Let me give you a brief summary." Yao Nana thought Chen Xing blamed her for not reporting the progress in time, so she quickly found an excuse to excuse herself.
After taking a breath, she continued: "I have strictly followed your instructions and dismissed all the original board members and dismissed Takahiro Nishikawa from his company position. I have also replaced a group of senior executives in various departments of the Toyota Group. Just now New appointments are being made.”
"Well done."
While Chen Xing was praising him, he suddenly changed the subject and said, "What did Nishikawa University say? Have the senior officials of the island country contacted you?"
"No contact, I haven't seen Nishikawa Takahiro all day today."
Yao Nana answered truthfully.
Just after she finished speaking, she continued: "He promised yesterday that he would give a reply within three days. I wonder if he is acting as a lobbyist."
"It's just a delaying tactic." Chen Xing shook his head and said in a deep voice: "How much money does Toyota Group still have on its books?"
"A delaying tactic?"
Yao Nana was a little confused. Could it be that Chen Xing got some inside information?
After hearing that Chen Xing asked about the book funds, she told him again: "Converted to Jackie Chan's national currency, there is about 43.1 billion. However, Toyota Group has a large amount of outstanding balances, and the actual available funds are less than 14 billion."
Anyone who has done business knows that many people like to pay the final payment.
For example, for those who work on projects, the foreman likes to withhold a portion of the workers' wages from their final payment. Only when they return to the construction site in the coming year will this part of the remaining payment be settled, but instead their wages will be withheld for another month.
The same goes for doing business. If you do your best to hold down the balance payment, you won't have to worry about the quality of this batch of goods or the next batch. If there is a problem, you can directly compensate with the balance payment. There is no need to argue.
Rather than pressing down on the final payment, it’s better to grasp the pain points and make partners more honest.
"43.1 billion..."
Chen Xing was stunned for a while. Sure enough, the emaciated camel was bigger than the horse.
He did not hesitate and said with a smile: "Start the "Dismemberment Plan". You can spend the money as you wish. As for the current employees of the Toyota Group, they can make some appropriate noises."
"ah?"
Yao Nana was stunned.
Didn’t we have a good talk yesterday?
Why so suddenly?
Once the Toyota Group is run for the purpose of "dismemberment", it will be irreversible and millions of island workers will be implicated.
"They have made their choice. You can be as extravagant as you like. After all, we can't bring back the money. We strive to cut off the Toyota Group's liquidity as soon as possible."
"..."
Yao Nana was silent for a few seconds.
More than 40 billion.
How can I spend this money quickly?
invest?
Definitely not.
For major projects of the company, the second shareholder gives Nishikawa Guida a veto power.
"I can only buy, buy, buy."
Yao Nana murmured to herself.
Although there is a difference between company money and personal money, if the chairman wants to spend the company's money, who can stop him?
For example, if you buy a luxury car, it is nominally a company car, but the chairman has 24-hour rights to use it.
What is the difference between having 24-hour usage rights and owning your own car?
…
And on the other side.
In the wealthy villa area near Tokyo Tower, the real estate agent was leading Lan Junyi and Mo Yuancheng to a mansion.
There are two stone lions in front of the mansion. The male lion is stepping on the hydrangea, which is domineering and majestic, representing power and status. The female lion has cubs playing at its feet, which symbolizes the prosperity of its offspring.
The use of the double lion town mansion is obviously a mansion with cultural elements from the Dragon Kingdom.
The real estate agent is a Chinese from Long Guo, named Fu Dongping. He is not tall, about 170 years old. He wears the agent's signature suit and leather shoes. His eyebrows are feminine, and he has a slippery, shrewd, and calculating feeling.
Fu Dongping took a step forward and introduced: "I see that neither of you are interested in Western-style or Japanese-style villas. Let's see if this garden villa suits your liking."
"This is a garden villa that we built based on the Su style of Longguo's gardens. We invited Gu Hu, a master of Suzhou-style architecture from Longguo, to personally guide us. The two lions in front of the house are majestic and domineering. Look at the brick-carved gate tower and the gate. It gives people a majestic atmosphere and a sense of familiarity with a wealthy family.”
"Come on, let's come in."
Fu Dongping opened the door of the mansion, and what he saw was a small front yard. A tiled stone road extended to the inner yard, and there was a neatly trimmed welcoming pine on the left and right sides.
On both sides of the welcoming pine, there are many strange and strange stones.
Stones have the meaning of "backing" in ancient times and even in modern times.
Before Taishan stones were banned from taking outside, many dignitaries liked to use Taishan stones to suppress their mansions. However, these are probably not Taishan stones, just ordinary stones.
"These two welcoming pines are quite beautiful." Lan Junyi couldn't help but admire them.
"To be honest, it alone is worth 18 million Dragon Kingdom coins. It was specially cultivated from the Dragon Kingdom and then shipped back here."
Fu Dongping explained.
"Two trees are worth 18 million dragon coins. Rich people are really luxurious." Lan Junyi complained in his heart. He wanted to turn around and leave now. He felt that the price of this mansion must be over a billion.
But now that he's here, he also wants to see what a luxurious garden looks like.
"You two come with me."
Fu Dongping continued to lead the way.
The three of them walked into the inner entrance, and he continued: "There is a main building here, two auxiliary buildings, and auxiliary buildings on the left and right. I will show you around first."
As he spoke, he led Lan Junyi and Mo Yuancheng to the right.
Passing through the wind and rain corridor, what comes into view is the garden scenery, man-made lakes and carp swimming, which is antique.
Continue walking along the corridor and you will reach the auxiliary building.
It is said to be an annex building, but in fact it is no different from a villa.
The moment he opened the door, it could be described as magnificent and luxurious, which also opened Lan Junyi's eyes.
He didn't have the opportunity to contact him before, but now that he has had contact with him, he realizes that rich people enjoy life so much.
It was antique on the outside and magnificent on the inside. He couldn't imagine how happy he would be if he could live in such a mansion.
"What's the total floor space?"
Lan Junyi asked.
"Eight acres." Fu Dongping responded.
Mo Yuancheng swallowed and did not dare to speak. How much expenditure would it cost to build the Su family's garden mansion on eight acres of land?
"good."
Lan Junyi pretended to be calm.
"This mansion has been idle for a long time. Daily maintenance and care are a big expense. If you sincerely want it, you can get it with 700 million dragon national coins."
700 million dragon national currency...
Lan Junyi and Mo Yuancheng looked at each other.
The price was completely beyond their imagination. The house they just looked at cost tens of millions of dragon country coins, and now a mansion with a price of 700 million suddenly came here. Does Fu Dongping think too highly of them?
Just when Lan Junyi was thinking about how to find an excuse to leave, his cell phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID was Yao Nana.
"Hey sister Nana." Lan Junyi said hello. He thought Yao Nana called specifically to ask about the housing situation.
"The president called just now and told us to spend all the money in the Toyota Group's account, a total of more than 40 billion, and you can share some of it." Yao Nana went straight to the point and informed the situation.
"Spend all 40 billion?"
Lan Junyi swallowed.
How to spend this?
Is this so bad that you have to eat one portion and pour one portion out every time you eat?
But then again, with your own money, you definitely can't afford a 700 million mansion, but if you use the company's money, that's a different story.
Using company money to purchase an RV, they only have 24-hour rights to use it.
But what’s the difference between having 24-hour usage rights and your own?
It is actually an unspoken rule to use the company's money to enrich your own life.
For example, in the Dragon Kingdom, many companies will purchase large quantities of luxury cars for tax deduction, which can not only satisfy their selfish desires, but also reasonably avoid taxes.
If you get tired of driving it, or need to "pass it on", you can sell it to someone who needs it at a discounted price of the second-hand car.
This is also the reason why many luxury cars are under the name of a certain company.
"Okay, watch your consumption and be careful not to cross the line."
Yao Nana also reminded that Nishikawa Takahiro has the power of veto, and anything purchased needs to be rationalized.
"Okay, okay."
Lan Junyi nodded dully.
After hanging up the phone, he still had a dreamy feeling.
He spent 40 billion casually, and he didn't know what to do with it for a while. Should he buy himself a luxury car or a mansion?
Oh no!
Not buying it for myself, but buying it for the company!
Fu Dongping vaguely heard something about 40 billion. He was shocked and asked weakly: "Mr. Lan, look at this garden..."
"Are there any other Dragon Country-style residences?" Lan Junyi suddenly asked.
"Are you not satisfied with this?"
Fu Dongping was puzzled. He liked the way Lan Junyi looked at him just now. Could it be that the price was too high?
"If you are not satisfied with the price, we can lower it a little bit."
He added.
"No!"
Lan Junyi shook his head and said in a deep voice: "We want this one, and we want to buy two more, preferably in other cities."
"Ah?"
Fu Dongping widened his eyes, wondering if he had heard it wrong.
Buy two more?
Is this still human language?
One set is 700 million, and two more sets, if they are of the same level, wouldn't it be a cash flow expenditure of more than 2 billion? Who are these people? Isn't it black money?
Mo Yuancheng was also shocked. If he remembered correctly, there were five people from Longxing Group. This Su-style garden mansion alone was enough for them to live in. If they wanted a few more sets, would they just leave it to gather dust?
Are rich people so willful?
That's not right!
No matter how rich you are, you can't spend it like this!
Under the surprised gaze of the two, Lan Junyi nodded and said in a deep voice: "It's too troublesome to always stay in a hotel. It's reasonable to buy a few more houses, one in each city, as temporary residences for Toyota Group's senior executives, right?"
Mo Yuancheng: "..."
Fu Dongping: "..."
Being rich and willful.
This is pure "spending money".
However, Fu Dongping also noticed that Lan Junyi mentioned Toyota Group. He also knew that Toyota Group was forcibly acquired by Longxing Group. If there was such a relationship, it would be reasonable to squander the company's working capital.
"Then sign the contract now?"
Fu Dongping decided to strike while the iron was hot.
Lan Junyi waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "It's too troublesome to get a set of visas. You go back and prepare. We need to buy a property in the main cities of the island country. Oh, by the way, if you know a car salesman, please recommend it to me. We also need to buy new cars in bulk."
"You still need to buy cars?"
"Yes."
"How many do you want to order, what brand, what type, and what is the budget?"
"Lamborghini, Ferrari, Rolls-Royce, McLaren, I only want new cars. If you have a formal channel, please contact me. If not, we will find someone else."
As soon as Lan Junyi finished speaking, Fu Dongping could not wait to answer: "Yes, yes, yes, the world's sales are one family, there must be."
"Then you can come to Toyota Group to find me tomorrow. This is my business card." Lan Junyi handed over his business card.
"Okay, brother."
Fu Dongping was very excited.
If this order is successful, he may cross the class.
...
Not only Lan Junyi started to "spend money", Yao Nana also held a group meeting, she wanted to give herself a monthly salary of 5 million.
It's not Japanese yen, but Dragon Country currency.
It's not just him, Lan Junyi also has a monthly salary of 4 million.
As for Yan Hai, Zhang Yang and Xu Guoqiang, they have been hired by Toyota Group as the general managers of the security team, and the monthly salary of the three is one million.
This behavior of not caring about the life and death of the company and rushing to hollow it out has caused many newly promoted senior executives of Toyota Group to talk about it.
Before they could express their dissatisfaction, Yao Nana directly gave them a 50% salary increase. In just a moment, everyone smiled and felt that Yao Nana's decision was wise and powerful.
However, the money was not taken for nothing. Yao Nana glanced at everyone in the conference room and said in a deep voice: "The automobile factory is going to lay off employees, and our Toyota Group is going to slim down. This month, we plan to lay off 50,000 people. I don't care what method you use, you must rationalize the slimming down."
"Wow——"
The conference room was in an uproar.
What exactly do you want to do by laying off 50,000 people?
Reduce costs and increase efficiency?
That's not right!
This is not like running a company at all, but wanting to destroy the company!
Just as the Toyota Group executives were hesitating, Yao Nana added: "This is your performance evaluation. Each department must lay off employees. To achieve the goal of 50,000 people, you will have an extra bonus this month, which is about 100,000 Dragon Country Currency. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Gulp--"
Someone swallowed hard.
100,000 Dragon Country Currency, this is his monthly salary.
"Make sure to complete the task!"
With someone taking the lead, everyone began to be coerced by money.
It is difficult to run a company. Not only do you need to pay attention to cash flow, cost expenditure, annual revenue, and net profit, but you also need to keep an eye on market changes and make adjustments at any time.
But!
It is easy to ruin a company.
Brainlessly and legally use company funds, use the company's money to satisfy your own desires, and when the cash flow is cut off, the company will naturally go bankrupt.
"How many people will be laid off in a department?"
"Last elimination?"
"Are there layoffs every month?"
The eyes of the Toyota Group's executives flashed with greed. They couldn't wait to get this unexpected fortune.
Yao Nana looked at their greedy look and couldn't help but sigh at the magic of genes.
Because of genetic limitations, humans basically have bad habits. It is precisely because of bad habits that people who know how to master and use bad habits often achieve great things.
"A department will lay off at least 5 people, depending on the specific situation. I don't care what method you use, I just want the result."
Since she chose to dismember, she would not show mercy.
It is precisely because of Yao Nana's order that the senior management of the department returned to the office after the meeting and began to look for targets from the bottom of the performance.
Of course.
They were just looking for an excuse to lay off employees.
In just half an hour, hundreds of people were notified to go to the Finance Department to collect their salaries and dismissal compensation.
The Toyota Group headquarters was fine. The factory layoffs were not carried out in groups, but in workshops.
In three hours, more than 10,000 people went to the Finance Department to collect their salaries.
The changes in the Toyota Group made Nishikawa Takahiro, who wanted to delay the disappearance, furious. He looked at the information provided by his internal confidant and gritted his teeth and said:
"Chen Xing!"
"You deserve to die, Chen Xing!"
"You are really going to destroy the Toyota Group!"
His roar had no substantial effect. The Toyota Group was still laying off employees crazily. Some employees who returned home were preparing to eat when they received dismissal messages on their mobile phones.
Although the compensation was generous, basically N+ years of service, don't forget that the automobile manufacturing industry is a guaranteed job in the island country.
Many people have no skills and no business thinking. They can only sell their physical strength to the factory in exchange for salary.
What is this equivalent to?
It is equivalent to the "triathlon" of Dragon Country. Didi, takeout, and express delivery have laid off a large number of employees. What else can they do?
A large number of complaint calls were made to the hotline of the island country's senior management.
After hearing the news, Saito Ii couldn't help but flash a look of amazement.
"Chen Xing really wants to bring down the Toyota Group. He really wants to kill the Toyota Group."
I thought Chen Xing would not easily mess around after spending so much money to force the acquisition, but I didn't expect this man to be a ruthless person who only plays for real.
This sudden move caught the top leaders of the island country off guard.
Hideki Ueka, Mitsunari Ishida, and Koji Nomura all fell silent. Things were becoming more and more out of control.
But they chose the road, and they also need to pay for it.
In the early hours of the morning, the Ministry of Finance, the Central Bank, and the Social Security Department of the island country held an emergency joint meeting to discuss the issue of unemployed population protection.
After a number of discussions, they decided to establish a "5 trillion yen special unemployment fund" to help workers transition.
With the green light approval all the way, the announcement of the "5 trillion yen special unemployment fund" appeared on the official website of the island country at noon the next day.
[Notice on the establishment of the "5 trillion yen special unemployment fund"
Dear citizens and all sectors of society, in order to cope with the current severe economic situation and the growing unemployment problem, the island government has decided to establish a special unemployment fund of 5 trillion yen to support the unemployed, promote employment and stabilize the social economy.
The relevant matters are hereby announced as follows:
1. This fund aims to help the unemployed return to work as soon as possible by providing unemployment benefits, vocational training, entrepreneurship support and other measures, reduce the economic burden on families, and promote economic recovery and development.
2. The sources of funds for this fund mainly include government fiscal grants, social donations, fund investment income, etc.
3. The beneficiaries of this fund mainly include people who are unemployed due to economic reasons, especially employees of small and medium-sized enterprises, temporary workers, freelancers and other groups that are vulnerable to economic fluctuations. At the same time, certain support will be given to entrepreneurs and self-employed persons who meet the conditions.
4. Unemployed persons need to apply through designated application channels and submit relevant supporting materials. After the application materials are reviewed and approved, unemployment benefits and other support measures will be issued in accordance with the prescribed standards and procedures. ]
The rapid introduction of the "5 trillion yen special unemployment fund" has made the unemployed feel a lot more at ease, but the question is, what else can they do?
Go to the construction site?
As early as the 1980s, there were no large-scale infrastructure projects in the island country.
Do farm work?
How can there be so many fields in the island country?
Even with some guarantees, many unemployed workers in the island country are still confused. They also learned from the Internet that Toyota Group has been forcibly acquired by Longxing Group, and this large-scale layoff was caused by Longxing Group.
The actual controller of Longxing Group is Chen Xing, who is less than 30 years old.
For a time, the name Chen Xing has been hated by countless island people, who want to eat his flesh, drink his blood, and peel his skin.
However, Chen Xing, who is in Longguo, doesn't care and has no guilt, because it was not him who caused the large-scale layoffs of Toyota Group, but the choice of the island country's senior management.
He has given the opportunity for win-win cooperation and core harmonious development. It was the island country itself that gave up, so Chen Xing can't blame him for doing things too much.
The next day.
Near noon.
(I will climb up step by step)
(Waiting for the sun to quietly look at its face)
(The small sky has big dreams)
The phone rang suddenly, Chen Xing let go of the mouse, retracted his gaze from the computer screen, and picked up the phone on the desktop.
"Jiang Ye."
"You are quite efficient."
Yesterday, Masike came to visit and expressed his intention to sell the Tesla Super Factory in Shanghai and withdraw from the Longguo market.
Since Chen Xing is in Shenzhen and it is not convenient to go there, he entrusted Jiang Ye, the president of SAIC Group, to make a trip on his behalf.
Now that he is calling, if nothing unexpected happens, the visit should be almost over.
