Chapter 483 - How to Conquer Japan 3 (1/2)
”As once a country who has led the economy of Asia, although Japan not as good as before, its status as the leader of the world economic center is able to fight toe in toe with British and United States in the past. The complete legal system, undervalued asses price, and investment opportunities due to aging infrastructure are now in the period through recovery,” Seri said.
”It seems that this country is very restrictive, but that isn't true. Japan has a very good investment environment, less restrictive regulations, and a better business environment.”
”Even if you don't have a long-term operating plan, you can still acquire these assets and sell them to other investors at a higher price in the future. I believe that many people are willing to take over those industries. After all, those assets are monopoly industries and will give a stable cash inflow,” Seri said.
Haru nodded and knew that the economy of Japan would change in the near future.
The domestic market has been very sluggish and there aren't many rich people in this country besides the owner of Uniqlo and the founder of Softbank.
In the past, the economy of this country was being controlled by Zaibatsu or industrial and financial business conglomerates in the Empire of Japan, but it is different now since the power of those conglomerates has decreased.
Haru hadn't heard much about a foreign investor or any people who were taking over those industries in this country. Even though there weren't any people, he was very tempted to do it since this stable income and the weight of authority that he would get after acquiring those industries were really good.
According to the Constitution of Japan, Chapter III, Rights and Duties of The People. Article 29, the right to own or to hold property is inviolable. Property rights shall be defined by law, in conformity with the public welfare. Private property may be taken for public use upon just compensation.
Haru had heard that the Japanese government had a very weak eminent domain (the power of the government to take private property and convert it into public use), even though the Constitution of Japan clearly stated that the government may bale to take a private property to be taken for public use. He remembered the opposition of a lot of people during the expansion of Narita International Airport and the expansion of this airport stopped after being opposed by a lot of people. He knew that the people in this country were weak against pressure. He really needed to control the media as soon as possible since it would help him to manipulate the voice of the public.
Seri who saw Haru who was in deep thinking added more oil to the fire. ”Kasugano-sama, you might think that these are heavy assets and may not be the same as a financial investment, so the speed of income might be slower, but what I want to say in the capital market, it hasn't always been who is more profitable, but one who can live longer.”
Haru who heard Seri also understood that those industries that were proposed by Seri would undoubtedly be able to live a very long life.
”If you're able to get to those industries then it is possible to control 120 million people's food, clothing, and shelter,” Seri said.
Haru wasn't sure how much that he could get from the through his financial investment, but he had confidence that the number was a lot. In the future, he would have a lot of funds on his hands and rather than keeping it on his account waiting for decrepitation. It was better to use it for business since it would give him more benefits.
Haru also knew that the Japanese market was at its lowest point and he knew in the future it would rise tremendously to the normal economy in 2020. It was his only chance to start now since it would be hard to do it in the future. He also liked this investment plan since it had a very low risk and very stable returns.
It would give him more credibility to do business since his investment was very reckless.
