Chapter 1203: Nomura Securities is in our hands!

Xiang Yu was greatly relieved that Chun Ping Xiang chose to submit, and he had a very good impression of him, someone he had never met before.

After the stock market opened, many of Xiang Yu's institutions began to suppress the stock price, which was to reduce the cost of the subsequent takeover.

Nomura Securities' abnormal stock price was naturally discovered by employees under surveillance and reported at the first opportunity.

However, in the end, nothing was done about it, and the senior management ignored the matter.

Although the people below were extremely anxious, they could only worry.

Without the authority to call in funds, they could only watch helplessly as the stock price of Nomura Securities fell.

This somewhat strange situation made other institutions also indecisive. They watched the stock price of Nomura Securities fall, but they did not dare to buy. Some institutions even chose to sell their stocks because their analysis of the current situation was inaccurate.

Meanwhile, many institutions were also buying the stocks of Xiaosi Industry, which was continuing to fall, in the hope of bottom fishing.

In one morning, 22.87 million shares were bought, increasing Xia Yu's total shareholding to 82.33%!

That afternoon, the island country's Xiaosi Industry underwent a large-scale change in shareholding, and even the president, Kyogen Kojiro, announced his withdrawal from the ranks of shareholders and his intention to resign.

After the news broke, the stock price, which had already fallen due to bottom fishing, fell again.

The media spotlight was on Xiao Si Industrial Company.

Fortunately, Xia Yu did not have all of his shares in Xiao Si Industrial Company in the hands of Jiuding Securities Company; only a portion of them were, and most of them were held in other shell companies on behalf of others.

Then, on Tuesday morning, Xiao Si Industrial Company held an extraordinary general meeting of shareholders to re-elect the board of directors. Chairman Jingyuan Xiaozhiliang and a large number of directors were replaced, leaving only a few non-independent directors who did not hold any shares.

The new board of directors was chaired by an executive promoted from within Koito Industries, named Shigeru Nakamura, a highly capable person and not a member of the right-wing camp.

Immediately after the conclusion of the shareholders' meeting, the first meeting of the new board of directors was held.

In addition to voting to appoint Shigeru Nakamura as the company's CEO and some personnel appointments, the most important thing was to pass the proposal to apply for delisting and privatisation.

After the meeting, Koito Industries immediately submitted an application for delisting and privatisation to the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Tokyo Stock Exchange. The price of the stock privatisation was the latest share price – 213.49 yen per share!

The privatisation at par value was already very generous when Koito Industries was in a quagmire. In order to privatise the remaining 63.83 million shares, 13.627 billion yen would need to be paid!

The privatisation was commissioned by Jiuding Securities, and the funds were fully in place.

The island nation's government had long been worried about the impact on a large number of shareholders because of the crisis that Koito was in itself. Now that Koito had chosen to privatise, it could be said that it had concentrated the crisis on itself, minimising the losses of investors.

Therefore, after receiving Koito's delisting application, the Tokyo Stock Exchange held an emergency meeting to discuss the matter, and a decision was made before the afternoon session began, agreeing to Koito's delisting application.

So when trading opened on Tuesday afternoon, the company's shares were suspended and the privatisation process officially began.

Retail and institutional investors holding the company's shares went to Jiuding Securities to handle the relevant business.

Jiuding Securities' popularity soared!

...

By the time trading closed on Wednesday morning, Nomura Securities' share-buying operation had officially been completed.

Due to the stock price suppression before the bottom fishing, Nomura Securities' stock price has fallen a lot.

Bottom fishing and buying 158.25 million shares only cost 62.457 billion yen.

Together with the 55.53% stake previously held, Xia Yu's total institutional shareholding increased to 68.2%!

This has achieved a substantial absolute control of Nomura Securities.

However, Xia Yu does not want to be exposed, so all these shares are hidden.

To achieve this level, Xia Yu has spent a total of 1.96453 billion US dollars.

If the share price of Nomura Securities is normal, the acquisition at parity would cost nearly 2.2 billion US dollars, not to mention that under normal circumstances, the stock price would have skyrocketed, and the plan would not have been completed even if Xia Yu's brain were normal.

As for Koito Industries, Xia Yu has spent a total of 97.801 billion yen, including the funds for complete privatisation.

When the market value of Koito Industries was normal, it was 478.977 billion yen.

In other words, Xia Yu bought such a large industrial company at a price equivalent to one-fifth of its market value.

After he had resolved the crisis of Koito Industries behind the scenes, he made a huge profit!

If we also consider the super-low price at which he acquired Taiyo Fisheries, the profits from short selling Koito Industries and oil futures, we can say that Xia Yu personally made a fortune from this operation!

It was definitely a resounding victory!

...

'Junpei, get ready, the boss is inside!'

On Wednesday evening, after passing through security, a car entered the garden of Xia Yu's mansion. After the car pulled into the outdoor garage, Matsumoto Yu and Junpei Hinata arrived at the front entrance of the mansion. Matsumoto Yu rang the doorbell while being watched by the two bodyguards.

In a moment, the door opened, revealing the figure of Li Wuming. He saw Matsumoto Yu's face soften as he looked behind him, and then glanced at Junpei Tominaga. He said, 'Come in, the boss is waiting for you in the living room!'

'Okay!'

After saying that, the two walked in.

When he saw Xia Yu leaning on the sofa, Junpei Tominaga's eyes flashed with a shocked expression, and he looked sharply at Matsumoto Yu to try to confirm that there was no mistake. He got a look of affirmation from Matsumoto Yu.

Junpei Taira was shocked. He had never expected the mysterious boss to be so young. No wonder Matsumoto Yu had told him to prepare himself when they arrived. The boss definitely exceeded his imagination, and no matter how he asked, he would not say anything.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it!

It's just that this boss seems a bit familiar...

Wait, the person next to the boss is Wang Qi, the president of Xiangjiang Jiuding Securities Company!

So...

Before he could think any more, Matsumoto Yu's greeting to Xia Yu snapped him back to reality.

'Boss, good evening, I've brought the person!'

'Hello, boss!'

After Matsumoto Yu had said hello, Junpei Tohoku also bowed respectfully to Xia Yu, although the bow was not as big as Matsumoto Yu's, it was enough to show respect.

'Sit!'

'Let me introduce myself, I'm a Chinese from Xiangjiang, my name is Xia Yu.'

Junpei Hinata was taken aback, and his thoughts were confirmed, but shock still shone in his eyes.

Seeing this, Xia Yu smiled faintly and said, 'It seems you know who I am.'

Junpei Hinata took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Yes, boss, I'm sorry I just recognised you.'

Xia Yu shook his head slightly and said casually, "It's fine. I rarely appear in public, so very few people can recognise me unless they deliberately pay attention to me.'

'Here, have some tea!'

'Thank you, boss, I can do it myself!'

After waiting for the tea cup to be handed over carefully, Xia Yu said with a smile, 'Tsumugi Hinata, you have worked hard these past few days to achieve our goal.'

'It wasn't hard, I didn't really do anything!'

Tsumugi Hinata shook his head modestly.

'Haha...'

After chuckling, Xia Yu continued, 'Welcome to join me, you can rest assured of your shareholding, I will not infringe on the interests of my own people, Nomura Securities will remain under your control.'

'Thank you, boss!'

'Then, boss, what should I do next? Please give me your orders!'

Junpei Hirata completely let go of his worries, and a smile involuntarily appeared on his face, but he immediately hid it and respectfully inquired.

'For the time being, you don't need to do anything. Just carry on as usual.'

'After the Nomura family withdraws, you just need to take full control of the company. In terms of management, you can cooperate with Jiuding Securities in many ways and grow together.'

'In terms of funding, you will also have the support of many banks. As for which banks, you will find out in due course.'

'However, one thing is important: you must not let the Sanwa Consortium find out about the situation. You must also tell me the situation within the Sanshui Association as soon as possible. Understand?'

Jun Ping's pupils suddenly narrowed, and then subconsciously he lowered his head even further. His attitude became more and more respectful, and he obediently replied, 'Boss, I understand. From now on, I will collect all information about the Sanshui Association and the Sanwa Consortium and report it to you.'

Upon hearing this, Xia Yu gave a satisfied smile. It is so comfortable to talk to a smart person...
