Chapter 1035: The timing is ripe

Song Rongyu, who was looking at the river outside the window, smiled faintly and said, "Mr. Hashimoto, I just heard from my sister that the negotiation with you didn't seem to go smoothly."

Hashimoto Kin-saki laughed and said, "Your sister thinks a bit too much. Wanting to cooperate with our Nippon Steel and still wanting 51% controlling power, how is that possible? It's the same cooperation, but the conditions you gave me, Mr. Song, are much better than hers!"

Song Rongyu smiled and said, "That's natural. Women handle things too pettily, so they are hard to achieve great things. As long as you and I cooperate sincerely, Mr. Hashimoto, I will give 51% of the shares to Nippon Steel, and for the remaining 49%, I will privately give you nine percentage points, Mr. Hashimoto!"

Hashimoto Kin-saki said excitedly, "Mr. Song is indeed generous! After such a toss, you will only have 40% left in your hands!"

Song Rongyu said indifferently, "40% doesn't matter. I do this not for money, but more because I want to make a friend like you, Mr. Hashimoto."

Hashimoto Kin-saki smiled and said, "Mr. Song is really too generous! But I want to know, what is the probability of success for this matter?"

Song Rongyu said seriously, "As long as you have the ability to keep my sister in Tokyo, the probability of success for this matter is definitely 100%!"

Hashimoto Kin-saki said, "Mr. Song, it's not that I don't trust you, it's just that I heard that before your sister inherited the position of the Song family head, the Song family head seemed to have always been your grandfather. If I keep your sister in Tokyo, can you definitely sit in the position of the Song family head?"

Song Rongyu sneered and said seriously, "My grandfather is old, he has reached the age where he can barely eat. Even if he wants to sit in the position of the family head, he must be willing but unable."

After saying this, Song Rongyu added, "And Mr. Hashimoto, you can rest assured. Since I have decided to do this, there is no turning back. Even if my own relatives stand in front of me, I will destroy my relatives for the sake of righteousness! Therefore, as long as you can cooperate well with me on your side, I will definitely not let you down!"

Hashimoto Kin-saki smacked his lips and sighed, "Tsk tsk tsk... Mr. Song is indeed courageous and knowledgeable. However, there is one thing, I must say the ugly words first."

Song Rongyu hurriedly said, "Mr. Hashimoto, please speak."

Hashimoto Kin-saki said word by word, "Mr. Song, I can help you solve your sister's trouble, but after I solve the trouble for you, you must fulfill the promise you gave me. Otherwise, the recording of our call today might be passed to the Song family, or even passed to the police in your country!"

Song Rongyu said without thinking, "Mr. Hashimoto, please rest assured about this. After the matter is done, I will definitely fulfill the promise I gave you one hundred percent!"

Hashimoto Kin-saki smiled slightly, "Since that's the case, Mr. Song, wait patiently for the good news!"

The next day, the third day of the Lunar New Year.

Song Wanting arrived at Nippon Steel early to continue negotiating with Hashimoto Kin-saki about the cooperation matters.

After returning yesterday, Song Wanting thought for the whole night. In order to win over Nippon Steel, she set multiple plans in case of need.

After both sides sat at the negotiating table, Song Wanting took the lead in putting forward her first plan.

In the first plan, she still insisted on 51% controlling power, but as a return, she was willing to adjust the distribution ratio to 40% to 60% in the first five years of the cooperation.

That is to say, give Nippon Steel 60% of the net profit in the first five years, and adjust it to 55% after five years;

Hashimoto Kin-saki's attitude had changed somewhat compared to yesterday.

He was no longer as straightforward in rejecting Song Wanting's proposal as he was yesterday, but instead played tai chi with Song Wanting.

He said many things ambiguously, neither agreeing nor refusing. This soft and hard attitude made Song Wanting feel very helpless.

Both sides talked from morning until near dusk. Song Wanting had already adjusted the profit distribution given to Nippon Steel in the first five years to 65%, but Hashimoto Kin-saki still didn't agree.

Song Wanting really had no other way, so she could only show her bottom card and said, "Mr. Hashimoto, it seems that neither of us is willing to make concessions on the issue of controlling power. If it doesn't work, how about this, let's hold 50% of the shares on both sides, and guarantee that we have 50% of the voting rights under any circumstances. All matters of cooperation are equal and have equal rights. If we cannot make progress in the cooperation, we will also distribute all remaining assets in a 50% to 50% manner. What do you think?"

Hashimoto Kin-saki frowned and sighed, "Miss Song, if both sides hold 50% of the shares, it is equivalent to everyone losing the initiative. If there is any dispute or disagreement in the cooperation in the future, how should it be solved? If no one can make the final decision, wouldn't it fall into a dead loop where you don't obey me, I don't obey you, but neither can do anything to the other?"

Song Wanting said very seriously, "Mr. Hashimoto, if both of us want to do the cooperation to the best, then even if there are differences, I believe everyone can solve them calmly, instead of trying to fight with each other. Since everyone is seeking cooperation, it is to do things well. If this premise doesn't exist, then cooperation is indeed difficult to carry out."

As she said this, Song Wanting added, "So if you really have the sincerity to cooperate with our Song Group, then a 50-50 split of equity is not a problem. But if you don't have this sincerity, then even if you hold the controlling power, the cooperation may not necessarily be pushed forward."

Hashimoto Kin-saki said awkwardly, "Miss Song, there is a saying in your country, 'be the villain first, then the gentleman'. Since it is cooperation, we must consider all the worst situations first, don't you think?"

Song Wanting said, "Mr. Hashimoto, a 50-50 split of equity, and still giving you five more percentage points in profit, this is the final bottom line of our Song Group. If you think we can cooperate, then we will continue to talk. If you think we cannot cooperate, then we can only say sorry. So whether to continue talking or not depends entirely on you."

Hashimoto Kin-saki didn't rush to give Song Wanting an answer, but looked at the time, a weird smile appeared on his face, and said, "Miss Song, it's not early now. How about this, I will give feedback on your conditions to our chairman, and at the latest tonight, or tomorrow at the latest, I will give you a definite answer no matter what. What do you think?"

Song Wanting hesitated for a while and said, "Then okay, Mr. Hashimoto, I will wait for your news!"

After saying this, she stood up, reached out to Hashimoto Kin-saki, and said politely, "Mr. Hashimoto, let's go back to the hotel first today. If there is any progress, please contact me as soon as possible."

Hashimoto Kin-saki nodded and smiled, "No problem, Miss Song, please wait for my news with peace of mind."

Song Wanting took her few assistants and left the office building of Nippon Steel.

When she went out, Song Wanting's mood was very complicated.

Today, she had already opened her last bottom card. She had no room for maneuver anymore. If the senior management of Nippon Steel still couldn't agree, then her trip to Japan this time could only return empty-handed.

Upstairs at Nippon Steel.

Hashimoto Kin-saki watched the commercial vehicle Song Wanting was riding in leave the parking lot downstairs, a cruel smile wiped across the corner of his mouth, and he picked up his phone to make a call.

As soon as the call was connected, he said with a smile, "Mr. Song, your sister has almost been driven crazy by me. I think the timing is ripe. We can do it tonight. After tonight, your sister will disappear from this world completely!"

Song Rongyu's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Haha, Mr. Hashimoto, then everything depends on you!" ===== CHAPTER 1036 =====
