Chapter 1689 Who fired that shot?
Kenichi Nishida died by jumping from the 13th floor of the headquarters building of Sanwa Corporation, a remarkably decisive act.
His death ended the crisis that Sanhe was about to face, before Panasonic could even react.
It must be said that even the reporters watching downstairs couldn't help but marvel at how President Nishida, who led Sanhe to build such a large business, truly was a remarkable figure.
A large number of Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department officers arrived at the scene, and senior officers from the Criminal Investigation Division, dressed in suits and wearing badges, entered the building.
The reporters who had been waiting there naturally got the photos they wanted, and some of the earlier ones even witnessed Kenichi Nishida's last "face".
Of course, nothing could be filmed now. After the ambulance arrived, a male nurse was authorized to use a flat shovel to collect Kenichi Nishida.
The location of the freefall has been cordoned off by the police department with tape and barriers, so they can only film the outer perimeter.
Whenever a senior police officer from the National Police Agency arrives, reporters follow in their footsteps, trying to get even a single crucial piece of information.
To date, no organization or individual has come forward to explain the gunfight that occurred to the president of Honda headquarters, nor has any intention of holding a press conference to address the suicide of the president of Sanwa Corporation.
But within just a few hours, two things happened in quick succession. Who would believe that they were not related at all?
So even without the latest news, the reporters on the scene boldly speculated when facing the cameras, without any fear of being complained about.
Yoshiko Oshima stood in the crowd, not fulfilling her duties, but rather numbly watching the chaos of the scene.
The day before, Mr. Kenichi Nishida was still on the phone with her, asking about Li Xuewu's further actions and her assessment of the signing ceremony of Honggang Group.
She was involved in everything from the book that attacked Li Xuewu to spreading dangerous information to several companies that the Honggang Group had contacted.
A double agent's purpose is naturally to make money; she will serve whoever pays the most, and the longer the better.
No one was more eager than Yoshiko Oshima for Li Xuewu and his group to stay in Japan longer; she had been making waves lately, surpassing many of her predecessors.
But today she seemed to have lost all her strength. She witnessed Mr. Kenichi Nishida fall from a great height, like an autumn leaf.
"Ms. Oshima, what are you thinking about?"
The photographer's colleague, Da Xiong, asked in a simple voice, "Are you feeling unwell? Do you want me to take you home?"
"Oh? Oh, thank you, no thanks."
As if she had just woken from a nightmare, Yoshiko Oshima turned to look at her colleague and said with lingering fear, "I just didn't expect..."
"Sigh—who can argue with that—"
Da Xiong sighed and asked, puzzled, "Ms. Oshima, how could entrepreneurs like them, who have already achieved great success, dare to..."
He couldn't help but lean closer and whisper, "I still don't understand. Does he really hate that Chinese businessman that much?"
"Who knows?" Yoshiko Oshima lowered her head, lost in thought, and said vaguely, "There's probably more to it than meets the eye."
“Hmm, I don’t understand—” Big Bear shook his head and said, “If it were a revenge killing, there should be a motive, but they are partners.”
"If it were just because Honggang Group and Panasonic had partnered, would it warrant killing someone?"
He lowered his head and said to Yoshiko Oshima, "Do you think there might be other conflicts that we don't know about?"
Yoshiko Oshima pursed her lips and shook her head. She looked at Kuma and asked, "You've taken all the photos, haven't you? We should get back to work."
“Yes, the death of such an important person is something we could never have imagined,” Da Xiong sighed, composed himself, and smiled slightly at Oshima Yoshiko, saying, “Let’s have a drink together tonight, it’s on me.”
“I’m sorry, Mr. Ookuma,” Yoshiko Oshima said, glancing at her watch with a sigh. “I’ve been busy working on press releases lately.”
"And I had an appointment with an informant this morning, so I'm afraid I'll have to work late tonight."
"Ah—you've worked so hard!"
Big Bear had long harbored feelings for her, and naturally he didn't hold back in praising the girl he liked. But he also genuinely exclaimed, "No wonder everyone says you have a bright future."
"Not at all, it's all thanks to your guidance."
Yoshiko Oshima smiled faintly, tidied her hair behind her ear, gestured to the mobile office vehicle, and said, "Let's go, we'll wait in the car."
"Is another important person coming later?"
Da Xiong glanced back at the Sanhe Co., Ltd. office building cordoned off, then caught up with Oshima Yoshiko and asked, "Who are we waiting for?"
"What's meant to happen will happen, we'll just wait," Yoshiko Oshima said, glancing back before getting into the car. "There's big news this afternoon."
-
"I'm looking for you, check the news."
Gao Yaqin rushed in from outside and saw that Li Xuewu's room door was open. She walked to the TV and tuned it to the news channel.
Li Xuewu understood some Japanese, and keywords such as Sanhe, the president, and Nishida Kenichi frequently popped up, along with the large patch of dark red on the ground.
"I received news that Kenichi Nishida, president of Sanwa Co., Ltd., committed suicide by jumping off a building an hour and a half ago."
She looked at Li Xuewu, frowned slightly, and said, "Wouldn't this count as suicide out of fear of punishment? Could it really have been him?"
Qi Yan silently got up, walked to the door, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, and lit one for himself. The leader didn't smoke, and of course, he didn't like the smell of smoke.
He tilted his head back slightly and exhaled a puff of smoke. Even now, thinking back on today's adventure, he felt his palms sweating.
I never imagined my boss would be so bold, nor did I ever imagine that my boss would trust me so much and entrust me with such an important task.
Don't be fooled by his calm demeanor; he seems no different from usual. That's because he's received professional training, but his inner self is still far from calm.
Is the Secretary-General in the room?
Upon hearing the voice, Qi Yan opened his eyes and saw Director Li. He quickly threw away his cigarette butt, stood up straight, and reported, "Director Li, the Secretary-General and General Manager Gao are both here."
His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for the two people inside to hear.
Li Huaide nodded, not paying any attention to him, and stepped into the room. He glanced at the television before saying, "You all know."
“I heard the news about half an hour ago,” Gao Yaqin explained as she turned around. “I was in Dongli at the time, and I came back temporarily.”
"Well, what do you guys think about this?"
Li Huaide nodded, put his hands in his pockets, stood in front of the sofa, and said, "I've spoken with Director Han, and he's also waiting for news from above."
"Now we have even more reason to doubt Sanhe, don't we?"
Gao Yaqin raised her eyebrows and said, "It's just that it seems a bit like taking advantage of someone in distress, I don't know if it will be..."
"We still need to wait for news from the police department."
Li Xuewu interrupted her, frowning slightly as he said, "We shouldn't make any statements before the murderer is identified."
“That’s what I think too,” Li Huaide said, walking to the sofa and sitting down. “It’s better to stay still than to act rashly. We’re not the ones who need to rush right now.”
"You mean..." Gao Yaqin understood, raised an eyebrow and asked, "The cooperation with Sanhe Corporation should continue?"
“Of course—” Li Xuewu looked at her and emphasized seriously, “Even if this matter is really related to Kenichi Nishida, I still believe that it is his personal behavior and has nothing to do with Sanhe Co., Ltd.”
He further emphasized, "It has nothing to do with trade between the two sides."
Li Huaide thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Yes, that's how we should do it. The person is already dead, so let's see what's actually going on."
He was very worried that Li Xuewu would act impulsively and take his anger out on Sanhe Co., Ltd., and he was even more afraid that Li Xuewu would take this opportunity to escalate the situation.
Of course, he had great faith in Li Xuewu's wisdom and believed he wouldn't make a mistake on such a matter, but he was afraid that Li Xuewu's ambitions were too great.
Making a big fuss has its advantages, but the problem is that you might not be able to control the situation properly. Once you cross the line, the other party might not be able to meet your demands, and then you won't be able to salvage the situation.
Director Han shared the same sentiment, fearing that Li Xuewu, being young, might be greedy and put the higher-ups in a passive position.
Unexpectedly, Li Xuewu's idea was very mature. Such an assassination was nothing to him, after all, he had survived a hail of bullets.
"You mean..." Gao Yaqin glanced at Li Huaide, raised an eyebrow, and asked, "Go and take a look?"
"Yes, we're leaving tomorrow."
Li Huaide nodded and said, "I don't know if the Tu people believe in the principle of 'death absolves all debts,' but at least they value gratitude and morality."
He looked at Li Xuewu and said, "I think if we appear at Sanhe Corporation, we won't be seen as enemies or as people just watching the show."
"I hadn't thought of that—"
Gao Yaqin leaned against the window, rested her chin on her hand, thought for a moment, and said, "There must be a lot of media reporters at the scene at this time."
“And there’s also the gaze that’s been keeping an eye on Sanhe,” Li Xuewu said, narrowing his eyes slightly. “I think the Matsumura family should have sent someone by now.”
"Kenzo Matsumura?" Gao Yaqin raised an eyebrow and asked, "He's so old, surely he doesn't need to be?"
"Are you talking about the girl from that night?"
Li Huaide knew Li Xuewu well. Seeing the expression on his face when he said that, he raised an eyebrow and asked, "She contacted you?"
"Yes, just this morning, when we left our base."
Li Xuewu put down his pen and described the situation during their meeting that morning, as well as the brand-new cooperation agreement.
Li Huaide took it and looked at it, then handed it to Gao Yaqin.
“This Nakamura Hideji,” Gao Yaqin said, frowning, “has a bit of a devilish side.”
“We should focus more on the Matsumura family.”
Li Xuewu glanced at her and reminded her, "After all, Matsumura Kenzo is still alive, and his eldest son has considerable influence in mainland China."
"Director Han also mentioned this." Li Huaide took a sip of hot tea, which Qi Yan had just brought over.
Liu Bin was recently instructed by Li Huaide to handle the return trip, which required purchasing a lot of items. He couldn't very well wait until tomorrow night for him to go in person.
Moreover, Lao Li is a man who cares about his reputation and values loyalty. Whenever he goes out, all his relatives and friends have to prepare gifts for him, since he's showing off.
When we were poor, we couldn't do anything about it, but now that we're rich and have a different status, we naturally have to be more generous.
Furthermore, he had not forgotten any of the "heroes" who had helped him conquer the country, and even if Li Xuewu came, he would still prepare a gift for him.
When it comes to spending money, she doesn't even blink an eye when it comes to children's toys, fashionable Japanese coats, etc., and she didn't even tell Li Xuewu.
Even Dong Wenxue, who couldn't come, was included, as were everyone in the group, from top to bottom—everyone in his circle had to be considered.
Then there are the members outside the circle, the group's leadership team. Everyone received a gift, regardless of their relationship. He's the class leader, so he has to be generous and maintain unity.
He didn't think much of Qi Yan's service, but he found it quite interesting that Li Xuewu brought a driver instead of a secretary.
Few people in the group knew about Qi Yan's identity, but Lao Li knew that he was the bodyguard of Li Xuewu's father-in-law. What else was there to say?
“Masanao Matsumura,” Li Huaide said, taking a sip of hot tea and setting down his cup. “He’s not in the Liberal Democratic Party, but he wields absolute influence.”
"Yes, I'm talking about his eldest daughter, Nanako Matsumura."
Li Xuewu nodded and explained, "I haven't given her any reply regarding the cooperation, and now we need to reconsider."
"I don't object to her involvement."
Li Huaide thought for a moment and said, "Without the Matsumura family, our involvement in Sanhe would be somewhat abrupt."
"Moreover, now that Kenichi Nishida is dead, Kazunari Ninomiya is still around, and his influence is no less than that of Nakamura."
“The key issue is that Nakamura is dishonest,” Gao Yaqin emphasized. “If we really kick Ninomiya Kazunari out, it might not be a good thing for us.”
“So now is the time for us to go,” Li Xuewu nodded and said, “to see this friend who wants to kill me.”
He smiled and said, "I've always said that hatred stems from misunderstandings, and now it's time to clear up those misunderstandings and resume cooperation."
"Then we need to control the scale."
Li Huaide narrowed his eyes slightly, his skill in manipulating people was unparalleled. If he wanted to intervene in Sanhe, then Sanhe could not be too united.
Previously, Sanhe had three shareholders, and according to Nanako Matsumura's design, it should also have three shareholders going forward.
But now that Kenichi Nishida has sacrificed his life to break the deadlock, Kazunari Ninomiya has become the only variable.
According to Lao Li, they could neither ruin their relationship with Nakamura nor let Nakamura drive away Ninomiya Kazuya.
They even want Ninomiya to be more ruthless to Nakamura than they are to them.
So, what should they do to achieve this goal?
It's very simple: take the initiative to forgive Kenichi Nishida, and remind Kazunari Ninomiya that they made a mistake, and the Red Steel Group will generously forgive and forget.
Now that the grudges have been settled, who should Kazunari Ninomiya hate next?
Overt strategies are often more ruthless and direct than covert ones, even overcoming obstacles that cannot be broken through people's hearts; this is the highest level of strategic maneuvering.

"It's a car from Honggang Group!"
"People from Honggang Group have arrived!"
"Don't push, I'll go first!"
……
The appearance of a Mercedes-Benz 600 sedan in front of the headquarters building of Sanwa Corporation instantly ignited public attention there.
Even the high-ranking police officers, who were constantly bothered by the media reporters, suddenly noticed that the flies around them had disappeared.
Looking towards the direction of the convoy, the security personnel provided by Panasonic surrounded the three people who got out of the car and led them toward the building's main entrance.
Police officers and reporters who had received the news earlier sprang into action. When the door opened, Nakamura Hideji, vice president of Sanhe Co., Ltd., hurriedly walked out.
Before Li Huaide and the others could even reach the steps, he had already come down to the bottom of the steps, bowed, and expressed his gratitude.
We are deeply saddened by this unexpected news. Please accept our deepest condolences.
Li Huaide, representing Honggang Group, expressed his condolences to Sanhe Group, which had lost its president. This scene was fully captured by photographers.
Some cameras were even angled in a very unusual way, pointing directly at Li Xuewu's face and recording his facial expressions frame by frame.
The business suits worn by Honggang Group are very eye-catching. Unlike the loose-fitting suits of the time, the slim-fit style still looks quite smart.
To match the occasion, both Li Xuewu and Li Huaide wore black ties, giving them a very boss-like appearance.
Even with cameras recording and reporters shouting and questioning from the security guards outside the human wall, they remained unmoved.
"Thank you, thank you—"
When Nakamura Hideji shook hands with Li Huaide, he expressed his gratitude with deep sorrow and emphasized the friendship between the two.
"Please accept my condolences." Li Xuewu's handshake with Nakamura Hideji was much simpler; he only said, "Please accept my condolences."
But Nakamura Hideji showed no shame or anger. Instead, he bowed apologetically and said, "I'm so sorry for causing you so much trouble."
"Look ahead." Li Xuewu saw Ninomiya Kazunari appear at the door, glanced at him, and said calmly, "We've known each other for more than three years, and the cooperation between Honggang Group and Sanhe has also lasted for more than three years."
He let out a long breath and said, "It was no easy feat."
“I feel so guilty—” Nakamura Hideji was very grateful for his words and bowed down again, this time more deeply than before.
Li Xuewu gently helped him up, said something, and then followed Li Huaide up the steps.
Nakamura exchanged a few more words with Gao Yaqin and then followed her. The reporters, unable to keep up, could only frantically take pictures.
The flashes of light were so intense that they almost turned the entrance to the headquarters of Sanwa Corporation into the sun, forcing the security guards to squint and avoid the blinding flashes.
Kazunari Ninomiya stood at the doorway, watching the three of them walk up, and only at the last second did he have to step aside.
"Please accept our condolences." Li Huaide and the other two had already discussed this before they arrived, so they didn't show any unusual expression when they saw the remaining members of the Ninomiya clan.
They pretended not to know the other party's treacherous intentions, offered their condolences, and then took the elevator at Nakamura's invitation.
Kazunari Ninomiya stood there, looking at the group with a complicated expression.
He didn't know if his initial suggestion was really correct. Now that Kenichi Nishida was dead, the people from the Red Steel Group walked in brazenly.
Are they here to pay their respects, to watch the spectacle, or to cause trouble?
They don't look like it at all; they seem to be here to offer condolences, but how could that be?
He couldn't fathom the purpose of the three men from the Red Steel Group, so he could only remain silent, because he was the last person Kenichi Nishida had seen, and the police department hadn't yet completed its investigation of him.
In a sense, he is the suspect identified by the police department.
"You've come too."
Nanako Matsumura happened to appear at the elevator entrance. When she saw the group coming up, she couldn't hide her surprise, but her gaze was fixed on Li Xuewu.
Li Huaide nodded slightly, said nothing, and walked inside.
Nakamura Hideji knew the key to it. After glancing at her and Li Xuewu, he accompanied Li Huaide to continue walking inside.
"Are you leaving?" Li Xuewu glanced at her, paused slightly, and asked, "When did you arrive?"
"I'm not in a hurry." Nanako Matsumura was bored and couldn't stand it any longer, so she was preparing to leave.
But now that she saw the people from Honggang Group had arrived, she was no longer willing to leave and actually followed Li Xuewu back.
"I came over as soon as I received the news."
She walked beside Li Xuewu, her gaze sweeping over his body from time to time, as if she were observing what was wrong.
Li Xuewu didn't care and simply said, "Then you must know more than I do. Did he leave any last words?"
“I knew that Kazunari Ninomiya was there when he jumped.”
Nanako Matsumura spread her hands and said, "As for what the two of them talked about, only the police department knows for now."
Are you sure he'll tell the truth to the police?
Li Xuewu smirked and gestured towards the reception room inside, asking, "You just came out of there? Who was there?"
"Hehe—" Nanako was about to laugh at him, but then she remembered that now was not the right time, so she swallowed it back and explained, "You'll know when you go in."
"Then I'd better not go in."
Li Xuewu stopped and looked at her, saying, "By now, everyone who's supposed to be here should be here."
"Yes, even those of you who shouldn't be here are here. Isn't it normal for them to come?"
Nanako Matsumura rolled her eyes and asked, "How is Kawashima Yoshiki's injury? I heard he was incredibly lucky to have dodged a fatal bullet?"
Li Xuewu knew that the situation at the scene had been distorted through the transmission; he had clearly dodged the bullet, but now it was Kawashima who had taken the fall.
"You hate him that much?"
He glanced at Nanako and asked, "Do you have a grudge against me? I'm starting to suspect that you hired someone to shoot her."
"If it was someone I arranged, I would have taken you out too."
Nanako Matsumura curled her lip and said, "That way, Tokyo will be in complete chaos, and no one will stop me from doing whatever I want."
"It seems you are still a dangerous element."
Li Xuewu winked at his left eye and said meaningfully, "Don't even think about studying in China next year."
"That's not something you can decide."
Nanako glanced at him and said, "If I go to study in China, how will you treat me?"
"Who said I would entertain you?"
Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Aren't you afraid I'll tie you up and sell you off? Sell you to some country bumpkin as a wife."
"Ha—" Nanako rolled her eyes and retorted, "Do you think I'm a child?"
“It’s not a big deal anyway.” Li Xuewu glanced at the crowd and made a precise judgment.
Don't doubt it, his eyes are his ruler, whatever size he says it is, it is.
He has seen more Nanako than Nanako herself is old!
"You're so boring." Nanako didn't seem to care about his teasing, which had a hidden meaning. She gave him a push and they walked into the conference room together.
The main conference room had already been set up. Kenichi Nishida was not there; he should be in the laboratory, being reshaped.
Please don't misunderstand, Kenichi Nishida is not Nezha, he can't come back to life, but he needs a dignified funeral.
Even if what he did was not respectable, his death was not respectable either.
But some people think that he took responsibility and chose to end things in this way, which makes him a decent man.
So when the people from Honggang Group appeared in the conference room, the scene instantly fell silent, and everyone was watching them.
Li Huaide walked calmly in front, followed by Gao Yaqin, Li Xuewu, and the rather abrupt Matsumura Nanako.
The group arrived at the front, where Matsumura Masanao was sitting, looking somewhat somber.
However, there was a hint of surprise and complexity in his eyes when he looked at his daughter and Li Xuewu.
Such families don't care about superficial purity; instead, they care about the consequences of deceit and treachery.
Kenichi Nishida is a case of karma and retribution.
No one knew the situation better than Matsumura Masanao. Although he didn't know who attacked Li Xuewu and Kawashima Yuki, he was certain it wasn't Nishida Kenichi.
Because Ninomiya Kazunari didn't tell the police, but instead confessed everything to him and asked for protection.
Kenichi Nishida's dying words, along with Kazunari Ninomiya's preparations, ensured that the attack on Honda headquarters would not occur.
He didn't believe Ninomiya Kazunari's words, but he had no choice but to believe Nishida Kenichi's death. When someone is dead, why would he need to lie?
Therefore, the person who attacked Li Xuewu and Hedao Yu could be someone else, or it could be Li Xuewu himself.
He orchestrated a whole drama, yet it drove the very person who wanted to harm him, Kenichi Nishida, to his death. How deep and dangerous his scheming must have been!
His daughter walked beside him, a hint of smugness on her face, as if she had tamed this fierce tiger.
Little did they know that when a tiger is full, it doesn't stop eating people; it just becomes too lazy to move. When it gets hungry again, it won't look like this.
The daughter, who boasted about graduating from a prestigious American university, underestimated the tiger. Such a dangerous act was magnified countless times in the eyes of the others present.
Many people have already realized that Kenichi Nishida's death was far more complicated than they had heard.
It sounds simple, but it's actually quite simple: he tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice instead. Although he hadn't even had a chance to take action, his idea was already doomed.
Having thoughts of murder is also wrong, and in a situation involving multiple plots, one must also bear responsibility.
And the one who orchestrated all of this was the young man before us, with a kind face but a fierce appearance; he was no easy opponent.
"I never expected you all to come, I am truly grateful."
Matsumura Masanao actually expressed his gratitude to the three of them as the host, which made Li Xuewu frown.
Li Huaide turned to look at Nakamura Hideji, seemingly waiting for his explanation and introduction.
“This is Mr. Matsumura Masanao, a close friend and elder brother of President Nishida.” Nakamura Hideji raised his hand to introduce him, and then explained, “President Nishida left behind some last words about Miwa before he passed away.”
He first glanced at everyone in the meeting room before saying, "In accordance with President Nishida's last wishes, he will relinquish all his shares and invite Mr. Matsumura Masanao to serve as the general advisor of Miwa Corporation."
A murmur of discussion immediately arose at the scene, but given Matsumura Masanao's status, although people had some objections, they did not make a fuss.
Until Hideji Nakamura said the following:
"At the same time, Sanhe Co., Ltd. will engage in comprehensive cooperation with Honggang Group, and I will represent Sanhe to invite Honggang Group to invest and acquire equity..."
wow——
Those waiting to divide the spoils stood up, pointed at Nakamura Hideji, and cursed him, saying that he had betrayed Sanwa.
Li Xuewu glanced at the crowd. These people were representatives of various forces. They were not gathered here to pay tribute to Kenichi Nishida, but rather for the legacy left by Kenichi Nishida—the shares of Sanhe Co., Ltd.
Sanwa has already made a name for itself in the electronics markets of Japan, Southeast Asia, and North America; everyone knows this is a lucrative market.
Those with the ability rushed over the moment they heard about Kenichi Nishida's accident, intending to use their influence to become the master of this lucrative opportunity.
Even if they couldn't appease the Matsumura family, whom Nakamura Hideji and Ninomiya Kazunari had brought along, they still wanted to have a bowl of soup before leaving.
Unexpectedly, that old scoundrel Nakamura even took the pot, and gave it to a Chinese company. What is he but a piece of trash!
They weren't even given soup, so of course they objected.
Hideji Nakamura wasn't going to tolerate them. Although they were his previous partners and close collaborators, he couldn't afford to make any mistakes during this critical time.
So he decisively looked at Matsumura Masanao; the protective umbrella he had bought with money should now come into play.
Matsumura Masanao knew it was time for him to speak up, since he had taken the money and should help them avoid trouble.
"This resolution was passed after internal discussions within Sanwa Corporation."
His sudden words silenced the room once again, but then someone raised an objection, "How could Ninomiya-kun possibly agree to such a thing!"
"Exactly! He will absolutely not agree!"
As some people started to jeer, others joined in. By this time, they were already blinded by greed, and even the Matsumura family was no exception.
"This is an internal decision of Sanhe Co., Ltd."
Suddenly, Ninomiya Kazunari's voice came from the conference room door. He walked in accompanied by several senior police officers.
"Please respect Sanhe, and please also respect us."
Ninomiya Kazuya didn't look at Nakamura Hideji, but instead walked up to Matsumura Masanao and bowed slightly, then bowed to Li Huaide of the Honggang Group.
Both Matsumura Masanao and Li Huaide nodded, indicating their agreement with his statement.
“Sanwa has encountered the most serious crisis since the establishment of the company. We are fortunate to have your support, and we are very grateful to Ninomiya Kazuya.”
He looked at everyone, bowed deeply, then straightened up and said, "We will provide specific information about President Nishida's funeral later. Now we need to hold an internal meeting."
"you!--"
Someone at the scene couldn't hold back any longer and pointed at Kazunari Ninomiya, about to speak, but when they saw the senior police officers looking over, they couldn't say anything.
"Ladies and gentlemen, we have confirmed that Mr. Kenichi Nishida committed suicide and that it has nothing to do with Mr. Kazunari Ninomiya."
An officer announced the news to the crowd, then shook hands with Kazunari Ninomiya and Hideji Nakamura before leaving with his men.
Watching them leave, the people present exchanged glances, feeling rather bored. They couldn't very well stay there and wait for them to start their meeting.
At this moment, Matsumura Masanao had already stood up and invited Li Huaide to join him. Accompanied by Nakamura Hideji and Ninomiya Kazunari, they walked out of the large conference room and headed to the small conference room on the other side.
Some people were unwilling to give up and wanted to join in, but they were stopped by the security guards at the entrance, who told them that it was not convenient for them to enter.
They can argue with Hideji Nakamura, and they can curse Kazunari Ninomiya as a coward, but they absolutely cannot argue with the guards.
Because they knew that the guards wouldn't care about their feelings or tolerate them; if things really got out of hand, they would be the ones who lost face.
So everyone left, some grumbling and cursing as they went, others lamenting that Kenichi Nishida's death was a waste.
Li Xuewu followed them into the small conference room, along with Matsumura Nanako.
The eldest princess of the Matsumura family seems to regard him as someone she will be studying in China with, and is prepared to talk to him more.
Li Xuewu couldn't show any disgust in front of the woman's father, so he could only indifferently refuse to answer her question.
The small conference room was closed as they discussed the shareholding arrangements and operational management of Sanhe Co., Ltd. Time slipped away unnoticed, and when they came out, it was already dark outside.
"Since we both know that cooperation benefits both sides and division harms both sides, then when we go back, we should both carefully think about what we should and shouldn't do."
Li Huaide stood in the corridor, shook hands with Nakamura Hideji, and said, "I hope that Sanhe Co., Ltd. will achieve a better future under your management."
“Thank you for your understanding, and I would also like to express my special thanks to Honggang Group for its support of Sanhe Co., Ltd.,” Nakamura Hideji nodded and said, “We will cooperate and operate more closely in the future, and I believe that a better future belongs to us.”
"This is our shared wish."
Li Huaide nodded, then looked at Matsumura Masanori and said with a smile, "We have great respect for Mr. Matsumura Kenzo. We wanted to say goodbye before leaving, but we were afraid of disturbing his peace of mind."
"I never expected that this accident would give us more opportunities for exchange and cooperation. I look forward to Mr. Matsumura and you visiting China again."
He said sincerely, "At the same time, on behalf of Honggang Group, I also welcome your father and you to visit Honggang Group. We will give you a warm welcome."
"After today, we'll be one family, as you say in Chinese."
Matsumura Masanori said with a smile, "I hope that in the future cooperation, everyone will adhere to the principle of win-win cooperation, develop together, and achieve common success."
He raised his hand to signal Nakamura Hideji and said, "Mr. Li and I both hope that you can shoulder this important responsibility and not let everyone down."
“Definitely!” Nakamura Hideji nodded solemnly and said, “Niniya-kun, Matsumura Nanako, and I all have confidence in the future of Miwa.”
Nanako Matsumura raised an eyebrow but remained silent. In the meeting just now, Masanao Matsumura had only indicated that he would serve as an advisor, but Nanako Matsumura had been recommended by Hideji Nakamura to serve as the vice president of Miwa Co., Ltd.
Although Honggang Group has also agreed on the capital injection procedure, the current environment is not mature, so it will hold shares on behalf of Honggang Oriental Times Bank.
What's special is that Honggang Group holds a significant stake in Sanhe Co., Ltd., and the reorganized Sanhe Co., Ltd. has become much stronger.
For Nakamura, having reached a settlement with the Honggang Group and reached a closer and more comprehensive strategic cooperation agreement, eliminated the influence of Kenichi Nishida, and gained the support of the Matsumura family, whether he can do what he said and what the shareholders expect is a challenge.
Despite having dealt with Kenichi Nishida, Kazunari Ninomiya remained as the vice president in charge of sales at Miwa.
For electronics companies, especially Sanhe Electronics, which has abandoned the production process, the most important business is sales.
Although Hideji Nakamura has become the president, it remains to be seen whether he can continue to manage Kazunari Ninomiya.
Of course, with the Honggang Group's shareholding suppression, the Matsumura family's shareholding threat, and the restraint of Vice President Matsumura Nanako, Ninomiya Kazunari dared not do anything out of line.
Whether or not one listens to Nakamura's commands and opinions in business matters depends on Nakamura's abilities.
As I walked out of the Sanhe headquarters building, it was completely dark. The idlers had dispersed under the lights, but reporters were still lingering there.
They first interviewed the new head of Sanhe, and then Nakamura Hideji announced the results of the internal meeting at a press conference.
The part about Honggang Group's investment was the most explosive, directly influencing the direction of the Q&A session.
The Matsumura family's investment in Sanhe Electronics also made everyone realize that Kenichi Nishida's incident had not affected Sanhe Electronics.
On the contrary, thanks to the Matsumura family's involvement, a settlement was reached with the Honggang Group, and further cooperation and arrangements were made.
Although Hideji Nakamura did not disclose more details about the collaboration at the press conference, they had already guessed it.
Honggang Group needs technology, and Sanhe Electronics still holds the latest technology industries, but now it may have to hand them all over.
This will bring a major leap forward to the electronics industry under Honggang Group, and at the same time enhance the competitiveness of Sanhe Electronics.
Even a partially crippled Sanwa could threaten Panasonic in the past; now, seeing the president of Panasonic at this press conference, he must be about to smash his cup.
At the press conference, Matsumura Masanao did not speak, but Matsumura Nanako, who is about to become the vice president of Miwa Co., Ltd., gave an interview.
She was no ordinary young girl; she answered the reporters' questions generously and selectively.
Nanako knew that the reporters were watching the representative of Honggang Group, so she quickly passed the microphone to Li Xuewu.
That's why Li Xuewu represented Honggang Group at the press conference. The moment he took the microphone, a bunch of arms appeared in front of him.
All the reporters present raised their hands, indicating their desire to interview him.
Nakamura, who was hosting the press conference, randomly selected a reporter, who turned out to be Yoshiko Oshima, who had been waiting for him.
Amidst the envious and jealous gazes of the crowd, she stood up, took the microphone, and asked, "Hello Mr. Li, you should know me, so I'll skip the self-introduction. I'd like to ask you a question: regarding Sanhe's current situation, did you anticipate this, or even plan and arrange it in advance?"
hum-
The scene erupted in uproar. Everyone turned to look at her, who was known for her outrageous remarks, and then to Li Xuewu.
They all doubted whether Li Xuewu would answer her question, or were even offended enough to get up and leave.
Li Xuewu did not leave, but listened to her finish her question before speaking, "I am not a god, I do not know what will happen in the future."
"Hahahaha—" Hearing such words in a state of extreme tension can really make you laugh, and that's exactly what happened on set.
Li Xuewu glanced at Yoshiko Oshima, whose expression was resolute, and said, "If I had the ability to intervene in the future, I would rather be safe and sound today."
"Mr. Li, who fired that shot?"
Just as the staff member reached for her microphone, Yoshiko Oshima suddenly continued, "Was this all orchestrated by you...?"
