Chapter 498 People are watching!
If you calculate mentally but not intentionally, how can you make preparations if you are not prepared?
What’s more, Wu Jun has the help of Angel, the “magic soldier from heaven”.
Due to various factors, Sanmu Fireworks Factory was completely plotted by Wu Jun.
The father and son of the Miki family hold 50% of the shares of Miki Fireworks Factory. On the surface, the father and son have a net worth of nearly 12 billion yen, but this does not mean that they have so much cash.
Shares are just a series of numbers in the stock market, not numbers in a bank card.
In one day, under Angel's control, the Miki family, father and son, had invested all their property outside the Miki Fireworks Factory to plug the hole.
At this moment, Miki Kaohsiung, a billionaire, finally knew what it was like to be unable to turn over tens of millions.
It was Wu Jun's excuse, but when it came to him, it became the actual situation.
After a day of fierce battle in the stock market, the faces of the father and son showed exhaustion, and in the end they failed to hold the defensive line.
Miki Fireworks Factory's stock price fell for the first time since its listing!
At five o'clock in the evening, the father and son left the Miki Fireworks Factory and drove back to the residential area in the center of Fuzuna.
"There must be someone behind this incident. Someone is trying to distract our Miki Fireworks Factory!" After returning home, Miki Takahito was as angry as a kicked wild dog, "Don't let me know who did it.
Otherwise I won’t be able to spare him! Let him disappear from the world!”
"Shut up!" Mikio looked at his eldest son with a disappointed look on his face and scolded him coldly, "Do you think it's still more than ten years ago? There's no progress!"
Miki Takahito calmed down when he saw his father getting angry, but he was still very unconvinced.
He felt that the old man was really old, like an old dog that had lost its vitality.
The history of Miki Fireworks Factory's fortune more than thirty years ago is not glorious to say the least, as many unethical methods were used behind the scenes.
The old man back then was a powerful figure, a man of both rights and interests, and bold in his actions. He was Miki Takahito's childhood idol.
Every period of primitive accumulation of capital is bloody, either being squeezed or squeezing others.
Once you complete the primitive accumulation of capital, which is the so-called first pot of gold, you will find that your future money path will become smoother and smoother.
This is the case for Sanmu Fireworks Factory. In more than thirty years, Sanmu Fireworks Factory has grown from a small workshop to a listed company now. The snowball is getting bigger and bigger, making money is getting easier and easier, and money generates money faster and faster.
When things are going smoothly for you, you are surrounded by good people with smiling faces. When you encounter problems, you are more and more efficient in solving them, your ability to resist risks is getting stronger, and your resources are getting closer and closer.
I enjoy the feeling of being a rich person more and more and want to make more and more money.
Marx said in Capital: Once there is appropriate profit, capital will become bolder.
If there is a 10% profit, it is guaranteed to be used everywhere;
With 20% profit, it becomes active;
With 50% profit, it takes desperate risks;
For 100% profit, it dares to trample all human laws;
With a profit of 300%, it dares to commit any crime and even risk hanging.
In order to increase profits, capital will do anything, even selling the rope that strangles itself.
Marx's words have been fulfilled in the Miki family.
The cooperation between Miki Fireworks Factory and Wu Jun was promoted by Aso Ichiro.
In order to get this long-term order, Aso gave up a lot of profit margin.
In the past two years, the fireworks business in neighboring China has been difficult, and the fireworks and firecracker industry in Japan has also been affected to a certain extent.
Although taking Wu Jun's order gave up a lot of profit margins, there was still money to be made after all, and the factory also had orders to fill.
At first, Mikio was very satisfied with the cooperation. The cooperation went smoothly in the first two months, and the goods were delivered according to the contract requirements.
In the third month, Mikio was a little dissatisfied with this and proposed using the cheaper potassium chlorate as the explosive agent.
Mixing inferior products with qualified products can reduce costs to a certain extent.
Reducing costs means increasing profits.
Although potassium chlorate is used instead of potassium perchlorate, the performance of the product will be unstable, but the sound of the explosion will be louder and more powerful. Although it is banned by various countries, some people still like such products and are willing to listen to the sound.
From the perspective of partners and the law, Ichiro Aso strongly opposed this move.
But others spoke softly and their objections were ineffective. After all, the Miki family was the largest shareholder and held the dominant position in the company.
The Miki family has the final say on how much his salary is and how much dividends he will receive at the end of the year.
People had to bow their heads under the roof, and Aso Ichiro finally had no choice but to compromise and earn money for his unfaithfulness.
For testing purposes, when the third batch of goods was delivered, only one-third of the goods used the cheaper potassium chlorate.
This transaction was the same as the previous two. Wu Jun did not notice any problems and paid the money happily. Mikio was also relieved.
Although only one-third of the goods were reduced in cost, the transaction increased Miki Fireworks Factory's profits by nearly 8 million yen.
In the fourth month, cost reduction goods accounted for 50%, and the profits of Miki Fireworks Factory continued to grow. Wu Jun still did not notice anything, and the Miki family became more and more courageous.
By the fifth month, inferior products accounted for 80% of the total goods.
In the sixth and seventh months, there are almost no qualified products left.
The Miki family's profits from this cooperation increased by nearly 100% compared to the first month, making money easy.
Potassium chlorate and potassium perchlorate are very similar. Even ordinary people, let alone those in the industry, may not be able to tell them apart.
What the Miki family never expected was that among the loaders hired by Wang Qidong, there was Chen Jian, an insider who had been engaged in the fireworks and firecrackers industry.
As luck would have it, when Chen Jian was loading and unloading goods, he happened to encounter a box of damaged fireworks.
Moreover, Chen Jian was extremely lucky enough to tell Wu Jun about this matter.
If it were anyone else, who would specifically remind the cargo owner about something that is none of their business?
All we can say is that people are doing it and God is watching. It’s not that they won’t repay it because the time has not yet come.
In the final analysis, the crisis at Miki Fireworks Factory was self-directed and self-inflicted.
Miki Takataka asked: "Father, what should we do next?"
Mikio looked at his second son, his eyes looked cloudier than during the day, as if he had aged several years in one day, and the wrinkles on his face had become deeper.
"What else can we do?" Mikio stood up and said, "We will work separately to raise money tonight. The stock price must be maintained tomorrow. We will take whatever the other party sells. The stock price cannot fall any further. Let's act, for the sake of the family."
After Mikio finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the study.
