Chapter 452 The third of the four major consortia in Japan!

The Mitsubishi Consortium, one of the four major chaebols in Japan, started with the Mitsubishi Chamber of Commerce founded by Yataro Iwasaki, and then obtained government protection, thus occupying Japan's maritime industry. In the 26th year of Meiji (893), the company established a Mitsubishi joint venture. The company later established many subsidiaries through shareholding, and gradually entered the shipbuilding, mining, railway transportation and trade industries and other industries.

According to the Japanese commercial law promulgated and implemented in 893, Mitsubishi Club was reorganized into a Mitsubishi Joint Venture.

At the same time, Yataro's eldest son, Hiya Iwasaki, took office as the third generation president of Mitsubishi's joint venture. At that time, the company established general affairs, banks, businesses, coal, mines, and other departments, implemented a decentralized system, and also expanded the Nagasaki Shipbuilding Station, Kobe, Shimonoseki Shipbuilding Station, Kirin Beer and other enterprises, further expanding the business scale of the consortium.

In the fifth year of Taisho (1916), Yasuke's eldest son Koyata Iwazaki served as the president of the fourth official. The consortium abolished the ministerial system and established a director of affairs based on the industry.

In 1917, Mitsubishi Shipbuilding, Mitsubishi Papermaking, Mitsubishi Commercial and Mitsubishi Mining in 198, and Mitsubishi Bank was established in 1919. In 920, Mitsubishi Shipbuilding was divided into subsidiaries such as Mitsubishi internal combustion engine manufacturing and Mitsubishi Electric. Since then, as Japan has continued to launch wars, domestic demand for military products has increased, and Mitsubishi's industry has achieved unprecedented development.

After the end of World War II, all Japanese chaebols were forced to disband according to the UN's policy. Mitsubishi Heavy Industry, Mitsubishi Chemical and others were divided into three companies. At that time, Koyata, who was critically ill, declared that "we have fulfilled the obligations of the people to the greatest extent. Looking back, there is nothing shameful." However, since then, the companies of Mitsubishi chaebols remained unrelated. In 29th year of Showa (|954), in order to exchange information and contact each other, the presidents and chairman of the major companies of Mitsubishi chaebols began to establish informal organizations such as the Mitsubishi Friday Meeting in order to exchange information and contact each other.

Unlike the Mitsubishi Zaibattle that had Mitsubishi Corporation as its core before the war, the Mitsubishi series of companies established an equal Mitsubishi Group after the war. However, the group's cohesion was closer than other consortiums. Especially in the period of rapid economic growth in Japan, the core enterprises within the Mitsubishi Group made great contributions to the development of Japan's heavy chemical industry.

This is the predecessor of the Mitsubishi Consortium, and the current Mitsubishi Consortium is definitely stronger. After World War II, Japan rose whole country, and with the support of the United States and the American team to revive Japan's arms during the Vietnam War, so Japan's economy can be said to have put on the wings of taking off. Although Japan is not as the second economic power in the world as in later generations, it is almost a powerful economic power, so the Mitsubishi Consortium is still very powerful.

The predecessor of the Mitsui Consortium was the Mitsui Zai-bol ruled by the Mitsui family. The founder Mitsui Hachiro Hiroe Takao | opened a silk shop in Edo-Tokyo) and Kyoto in 673, and later also operated a money shop. Since the 1920s, it opened a Mitsui Exchange Store, which mainly handled silver and money exchange business, became commercial capital and usury capital, and funded feudal princes, handled exchanges for the Tokugawa Shogunate, and became a wealthy businessman as a privileged merchant. During the Meiji Restoration, the Mitsui family transferred to the court to support the new emperor-based government to dispatch military food and military salaries, developed into government and business, and received the care of the Meiji government, and controlled the country's financial industry. On this basis, in 876, it opened the first si-bank in Japan, Mitsui Bank, and established Mitsui Products Company. It was established in 190.

The general holding company basically formed the modern Mitsui Zaibattle. After World War I, Mitsui Zaibattle became the largest monopoly capital group. By the end of World War II, there were 273 direct and side-owned companies and their subsidiaries. Mitsui Zaibattle was disbanded for a while. In the early 1950s, the Yueyao Club was initiated by Mitsui Bank, and then the General Manager-level five-day meeting was established to promote the merger of Mitsui Products. In 1960, it was renamed Nimu Club and gradually became the coordinated leadership organization of the Mitsui Consortium. In the late 1950s, the former Mitsui Caesar Direct Company, and the side-owned companies were reunited in a new form of enterprise groups and restored to a large consortium. The Mitsui Consortium's managerial member companies, their subsidiaries and joint-leasing companies had more than 150 members of the Mitsui Consortium's managerial committee, their subsidiaries and joint-leasing companies.

The secret to the success of Mitsui Consortium is to obtain long-term price control advantages for resource products by relying on the participation of resource enterprises at the highest level of the industrial chain, which generally does not exceed the amount of shares. The investment as a lubricant is used to obtain the long-term price control advantage of resource products; at the same time, Mitsui further consolidates this advantage with the help of a huge logistics and trade network. This path has been replicated to the maximum extent on the territory of the Mitsui Empire, from nuclear power plants to eggs, almost all imaginable industries.

The business strategy of the Mitsui Consortium is to stand behind the enterprises like a shadow, use its strong capital, developed trading system and rich resources to promote the development of enterprises, and also penetrate into every corner of the world's micro-economy. By breaking the whole into pieces and hiding behind all kinds of enterprises, the Mitsui Empire actually has its own set of "action logic" - resources, trade, finance and information are the keywords. One by one, the integration of global trade networks, industrial capital and financial capital, logistics system characterized by comprehensive supply chain management, and powerful information collection system are the key to the efficient operation of such a huge business empire.

This is also the reason why Lin Yu plans to cooperate with the Mitsui Consortium.

As for the Fuji Consortium, the Fuji Consortium is one of Japan's four major monopoly chaebols, and was developed by the Yasuda chaebol before World War II. The Japanese call Mount Fuji "Peak of Furong", so it is.

Fuji Group, also known as Furong Group, was established in 966. The consortium has great influence in important fields such as Japan's manufacturing, business and finance. Fuji Group is relatively loose with Mitsubishi, Mitsui, Sumitomobile, and Fuji Group. It was formerly known as Yasuda Zaiba. Yasuda Bank changed its name to Fuji Bank in 2019, and then combined it with Nissan, Nezu, Asano, Okura, and Daikin, and was composed of Fuji Bank of the Yasuda Zaiba as the center. The core enterprises in the group include Yasuda Zaiba

Fire maritime insurance, Yasuda Trust Bank, Showa Shipping, Tokyo Building, Yasuda Life Insurance, etc.; Hitachi Production, Nissan Automobile and Japanese Grease, etc. of the old Nissan chaebol system; Nissan Spinning, Nissan Powder, Tobu Railway and Japan Seiko, etc.; as well as Japanese steel pipes (Crude Steel Japan Second) and Keihin Kyuki Electric Railway, etc. of the old Daisan chaebol system; Marubeni (Comprehensive Trading Company) of the old Daisan chaebol system and Daisen Construction of the old Okura chaebol system, etc. The Fuji Consortium faction has complex members and relatively loose organization.

Its predecessor was Yasuda chaebol. Among the four major monopoly chaebols in Japan, Yasuda chaebol was behind Mitsubishi, Mitsui and Sumitomo, but in some aspects he was the leader of Japan's modern economy. Yasuda Bank's development has been quite smooth. By 954, Yasuda Bank's deposit amount reached 3.9 billion yen, ranking first in the same industry in Japan. When the chaebol was dissolved in World War II, its paid-in capital of its financial institutions accounted for 72% of the total capital of this type of capital in the country, ranking first among the four major chaebols in Japan.

There are quite a lot of giant enterprises among the industrial and commercial enterprises affiliated to Yasuke Yasuke. Its pillar enterprise is Nissan Kangcaien of Yoshisuke Ayukawa, which was once the dominant position of the Japanese industrial group. It includes 77 companies including Nissan Automobile Company, Hitachi Production, Japan Oil and Fat, and is a huge enterprise group. Therefore, Yoshisuke Ayukawa has a significant influence not only in the Yasuke Group, but also in the Japanese economy and society. In the initial stage of Japan's modern industry, it can be said that Yoshisuke Ayukawa's Nissan Kangcaien is as strong as the electronics, communications, optics and other instruments; in the heavy machinery industry, Mitsubishi has strong strength, but Nissan far surpasses Mitsubishi in automobiles.

In terms of commerce, Marubeni Company, which belongs to Fuji Group, also has strong strength and is one of the world's largest commerce companies. It has made an indelible contribution to the internationalization of the Japanese economy.

The Yasuda family was originally a privileged merchant in the Meiji Restoration era and started by exchanging coins. In 863, Yoshijiro Yasuda opened Yasudaya Money House in Tokyo with 250,000 taels of gold as capital, and its development was smooth.|In 879, after the government approved it, Yasuda founded the Siying Yasuda Bank based on the money house, and gradually expanded to the fields of textiles, construction, railway transportation, etc., and formed a business group including a number of enterprises. In 192, Yasuda established a shareholding company of Yasuda Maintenance Company, thus initially forming the Yasuda Zaibattle that had a great influence in the Japanese economy.

Yoshijiro Yasuda was ambitious.|In 923, he annexed 0 banks at one time; by the early 1930s, Yasuda chaebol had a large consortium including 4 banks, 2 industrial and commercial enterprises and 6 insurance companies.

Because Yoshijiro Yasuda pursued a steady and solid business style, avoiding the ups and downs caused by bad debts and delays, by 2018, Yasuda Bank's deposit amount reached 3.9 billion yen, ranked first in the same industry in Japan. At the end of World War II, the paid-up capital of the Japanese chaebol Yasuda financial institutions accounted for 172% of the total capital of this type of capital in the country, ranking first among the four major chaebols in Japan.

When Yasuda Bank was dissolved, it was renamed Fuji Bank in | 2019.

|After the signing of the Japan-US Treaty in 1952, consortiums such as Mitsui and Mitsubishi actively recovered, while Yasuda Group recovered late. It was not until the end of 1960 that Fuji Bank was the leader, and began to gather companies under Yasuda Group before World War II to form Fuji Development; in 1966, the organization of Fuji Group was officially established. With Fuji Bank as the core, Fuji Bank jointly invested and successively established small and medium-sized enterprise research centers, Fuji Airlines Service, Fuji Comprehensive Leasing, Fuji Ocean Development, Fuji Information Center, Fuji Oil Development and other companies to enhance internal ties and show strong group behavior.

Yoshijiro Yasuda's steady and solid management style has had a good influence and guidance on the entire Fuji Group, and has promoted the rapid development of many companies in the group.

The core enterprise of Fuji Group is Fuji Financial Enterprises founded by Yoshijiro Yasuda, including Fuji Bank, Yasuda Trust Bank, Yasuda Fire Maritime Insurance, Yasuda Life Insurance. Before the merger of the First Bank and the Japanese Quaternary Bank in October 1997, Fuji Bank deposits ranked first among the national commercial banks in Japan, and its domestic exchange and foreign business also took the lead; in addition, there are many branches, wide business areas, and close local relations with Tokyo, so its operating conditions are significantly better than other chaebol banks.

It is really rare to gather three Japanese big names now. Lin Yu thought about it while looking at Akichi Iwasaki happily, and sure enough, there was a trace of obvious concern on his face.

Since Lin Yu had spoken, Akito Iwasaki was embarrassed to say something, so he waved his hand and said, "Let them come in."

"Yes, Master!" The middle-aged man responded, turned around and wanted to invite Mitsui Ryuichi Yamamoto Ichiki outside the door, but was suddenly stopped by Akichi Iwasaki. "Let's do this, you tell me that they will invite them to the conference room first, Mr. Lin and I will go there later."

The middle-aged man nodded and went out.

"Mr. Lin, before I invite Mitsui and Sanbenjun in, can I talk to you again? Let's talk for a while?"

Lin Yu's mouth curled slightly, and a shiny light flashed in his dark eyes, but he said as a difficult thing; "But, Mr. Iwasaki, it's a bit bad to let a guest wait outside the door, it's too rude."

"It only takes five minutes, is it okay?" A few drops of sweat appeared on Akitoshi Iwasaki's forehead. The plea in his tone increased a little, and he felt very angry, "Didn't this damn Ryuichi Mitsui and Ichiki Yamamoto come here just now, but they came so early. It made me so embarrassed. If I had known it, I would have forced the topic back just now! Fortunately, I can ask them to come here now, and it seems that everyone is anxious.

Indeed, anyone who wants to go up and eat two pieces of meat in Italy, otherwise Akitoshi Iwasaki would not have invited Lin Yu to visit Japan.

Well, Mr. Iwasaki, please tell me if you have anything to do! Time really doesn’t matter!"

"Okay, I'll tell the truth." Akito Iwasaki gritted his teeth, and a resolute flashed across his face. "To be honest, this time I mainly want to discuss with you the possibility of cooperation between the Milan Consortium and Mitsubishi, and strive for more benefits for everyone during the third round of the Italian sika wave."
