Wells Fargo approached these institutions to end the bet early, and the operation went very smoothly. No institution refused, the only difference being the price.
However, Nomura Securities is now in serious trouble and is no longer a short-term, high-profit investment target. Even if Nomura Securities' stock price is likely to recover in the future, it will take a long time.
If Nomura Securities takes a year to restore its stock price to its previous level, then for these institutions that require high capital utilisation, it will definitely be a big loss.
And this is only if, according to the current situation, Nomura Securities has suffered such a serious loss and its reputation has also been seriously damaged, so it will be very difficult for it to recover in a year.
Therefore, instead of pinning your hopes on Nomura Securities, it is better to admit defeat as soon as possible, recover as much capital as possible, and use this capital to make more money, and you may even be able to invest in projects with great potential.
Wells Fargo also does not regard making short-selling profits as its primary goal, so for the sake of efficiency, it is more relaxed during negotiations, which makes its work efficiency very impressive.
...
As for Jiuding Securities, Matsumoto Yu personally went to Yokohama and found Kyojiro Kyogen.
When he saw Matsumoto Yu, Kyojiro Kyogen's attitude was very cold.
There was nothing he could do, because Jiuding Securities was one of the main players in the short sale of Koito Industry Co.
Now that the company is in such a state, Jiuding Securities may not have the power to do so much, but it was able to short sell in advance, so it is very likely to be a participant in the conspiracy.
In the office of the president of Xiaosi Industrial Company.
Seeing that Kyogen Shojiro remained silent after sitting down, Matsumoto Yu smiled and said, 'Kyogen-kun, just now when I entered your company, I noticed that the employees were not working well, which is not good.'
Kyogen Shojiro said expressionlessly, 'Matsumoto-kun must have been mistaken.'
Matsumoto Yu shrugged and directly exposed Kyogen Kojiro's wound: 'Why do you need to explain, Kyogen-kun? Under the sanctions of the US Department of Commerce, your company is at great risk, and it is normal for employees to be worried that they will lose their jobs.'
'Currently, your company has more than 2,600 employees, which involves more than 2,600 families, and they are mainly locals from Shizuoka and Yokohama. If something happens, the adverse impact can be huge.'
Kyo Motokiyo's face darkened, and there was anger in his words: 'Matsumoto-kun, did you come here just to mock me?'
Matsumoto Yu took a sip of tea and said slowly, 'If it's mocking, I can definitely wait until you go bankrupt before I mock you.'
'Of course, if that really happens, I won't have so much time to waste mocking you, I might as well do something meaningful.'
Kyo Motoko's face turned purple, and his gaze at Matsumoto Yu was not kind, but he still restrained himself.
Now that there was a major problem at the company, he really didn't have the capital to provoke Matsumoto Yu, the president of a major securities company.
'Matsumoto-kun, just tell me, what do you want to achieve by coming here today? Do you want my shares?'
After saying this, Kyogen Kojiro looked at Matsumoto Yu with burning eyes.
Matsumoto Yu sat up straight a little, but still maintained an unhurried tone, asking, 'Kyogen-kun, before answering your question, I would like to ask you a question first.'
'Your grandfather founded the company, and this year marks the 68th year of your family's management. You must want the company to continue operating for a long time and become a century-old enterprise, right?'
Jingyuan Xiaozhiliang was silent for a long time. Although he knew that this question had a trap and would make him lose ground in his words, when it came to his grandfather and father, he still chose to follow his heart. He nodded and replied, 'That's right.'
Matsumoto Yu revealed a smile and continued, 'But now, Xiao Si Industry has encountered its greatest crisis ever.'
'With your abilities, you can't solve it, and no one in the country can either.'
'So even if Xiao Si Industry manages to overcome this crisis, it will eventually weaken and eventually perish, and that's still under the premise that it can overcome the crisis.'
Jingyuan Xiaozhliang immediately retorted, 'Matsumoto-kun, why do you have to be so absolute? You can't guess the future!'
Matsumoto Yu looked inexplicable, and said with a determined tone, "No, I have already seen the future.'
'The future of Xiaosi Industry Co. depends on your choice!'
Jingyuan Xiaozhliang's pupils suddenly contracted, his anger rising again. He glared at Matsumoto Yu and said angrily, "Did you do it?'
Matsumoto You said calmly without changing his expression, 'No, no, no, it is you who have harmed Silk Industries because there are indeed problems with the quality of your aircraft seats.'
'Every year, the US Federal Aviation Administration conducts inspections of major airlines. As the Chinese saying goes, "If you want to keep it a secret, don't do it yourself"!'
'Since you did it, you will definitely have to pay the price for it.'
'So you are the culprit who has brought Silk Industries to its current situation!'
'We just happened to know about it early from the United States.'
Jingyuan Xiaozhliang seriously doubted the authenticity of these words.
Jingyuan Xiaozhliang glared at Matsumoto Yu for a long time, and then suddenly let out a sigh. He couldn't even sit up straight, and he muttered to himself with self-reproach, 'Haha, yes, it's true that I didn't manage the company well, and such a serious quality problem has occurred...'
Looking at Kyogen Shojiro's appearance, Matsumoto Yu couldn't help but feel emotional, but in his heart, he had even more awe for his boss Xia Yu, because he knew that it was his boss who was manipulating things behind the scenes. He was even able to influence the American government, which the entire island country revered, and no one in the entire island country could match him!
"Kyogen-kun, I have come this time to bring hope to Xiao Si Industrial Company. We can get Xiao Si Industrial Company through the difficult times and give it a bright future.'
'But the prerequisite is that you let go of Xiao Si Industry completely!'
Matsumoto Yu finally revealed the real reason for his visit.
Jingyuan Xiaozhiliang trembled, and he looked at Matsumoto Yu sharply. After a long silence, he slowly said, 'How can you prove that what you say is true?'
Matsumoto Yu did not give a direct answer, but instead asked, 'Jingyuan, if I don't come, the future of Xiao Si Industry in your hands is already doomed, and you will also suffer huge losses.'
'You transferred the equity to me, you gained a strong capital for your comeback, and after we took over, if there were problems with Xiao Si Industry, the losses would be borne by us.'
'The same result, the risk and losses are transferred to us, no matter which party is analysed, you are the party that benefits.'
'If we really had a way, and Xiao Si Industry could continue to operate, wouldn't we have also not let you down?'
What Matsumoto Yu said was actually what Kyogen Shojiro had just guessed. The reason he asked such a question was just because he was unwilling to accept it.
And what Matsumoto Yu said was to enlighten him, so that he could recognise the reality and there was no need to dwell on the problem.
As Kyogen Shojiro's face kept changing, Matsumoto Yu kept quiet and stared at him intently.
At this moment, a battle raged in Kyogen Shojiro's mind, and he was internally struggling fiercely.
After a long while, his face returned to a calm expression, and he let out a long sigh. He looked at Matsumoto Yu and said, 'Matsumoto-kun, you have won. The shares can be transferred to you.'
'But I have one request: the company name cannot be changed!'
Matsumoto Yu nodded and replied, 'No problem!'
'Then let's talk about the price.'
...
Although he had decided to transfer the shares, Kyogen Kyujiro still felt a little unwilling in his heart, so during the negotiations, he held a very firm price and even threatened not to sell if the price was too high.
Although he knew that Kyogen Kojiro was bluffing, Matsumoto Yu did not push too hard, gave Kyogen Kojiro some face, and slightly conceded on the price.
In the end, the 64.4 million shares held by Kyogen Shojiro were transferred at a price of 400 yen per share, for a total of 25.76 billion yen.
Although this was far less than the peak price of 1,368.5 yen per share, it was a 62% premium over the closing price on Friday.
It was already considered very good for a stock price that was still continuing to fall.
After taking over the shares in the hands of Kyogen Kojiro, Matsumoto Yu was completely relieved.
The only obstacle to controlling Koito Industries had disappeared, and he could go back and report perfectly!
