Chapter 392 Political Contributions
During lunch time, Kudo Mizuki and others walked into the luxurious private room that they had booked in advance.The two parties were able to sit down one after another on both sides of the long square table.

Various sumptuous and exquisite meals were delivered to the table where they were seated one by one by the waitresses of the Karuizawa Hotel.

Red wine and champagne are also essential.The wines used are all brand products from Karuizawa Liquor Industry.

Whether they are members of the Kudo family or the Ishikawa family, not only do they all know that whoever takes the initiative will easily fall into passivity, but it is not just about eating at the moment.

This is both an informal and a formal negotiation.Not only will it involve the marriage of Kudo Shuichi and Ishikawa Mika, but it will also mention a package of matters such as Ishikawa's mayoral campaign.

Kudo Wakana first went straight to the topic: "We will bear all the expenses for Shuichi and Meixiang's wedding. Is there no problem?"

Mrs. Ishikawa said politely with a smile on her face: "Why is this so embarrassing?"

Kudo Wakana said confidently: "Since we are going to be a family, then we won't talk about the two families. If you have other requirements, such as a house, a car, etc., you can put them forward."

Mrs. Ishikawa also knew in her heart that these were not the focus, but that the focus was on her husband’s mayoral campaign: “Meixiang’s father and I don’t have too many demands.

The only request is that Xiuyi can treat Meixiang well after marriage and not bully her.As for the rest, let the two young men discuss it slowly. "

Kudo Wakana looked at Ishikawa Mika and smiled and said: "After you and Shuichi have discussed it, just ask him to send me the list and bill."

Ishikawa Mika knew that the other party was not only rich, but also able to talk to Ishihara Masao and said: "Thank you so much for supporting us.

Shuichi and I will definitely discuss it over and over again and try to use every yen on the blade, and we will never be extravagant or wasteful. "

Kudo Wakana said no more.It's not like she doesn't understand, she just pays for it.Of course, this money must come from Masao Ishihara.

Mayor Ishikawa's eyes fell on Oda Ryunosuke, and he said cryptically: "I have already communicated with Chairman Ishihara about that matter. What does he mean now?"

Oda Ryunosuke said without hesitation: "You have to ask the eldest lady about this."

Mayor Ishikawa's attention shifted from him to Kudo Mitsuki: "Does President Ishihara have anything to say to me?"

Kudo Mizuki put down the chopsticks on her right hand, raised a finger on her right hand and said, "My father means to give you this amount first as a political donation for your re-election."

Mayor Ishikawa was immediately moved, and for a moment he didn't understand how much her first representative cost.In order to avoid misunderstanding, he made the necessary confirmation: "Should this be 1000 million yen?"

Kudo Mizuki corrected with a slight smile: "One hundred million yen."

As soon as these words came out, not only Mayor Ishikawa was in disbelief, but also Mrs. Ishikawa and Mika Ishikawa were greatly surprised.

Mayor Ishikawa never expected that his old classmate would be a big deal right away.However, he also knew that it would be difficult to get the money. After all, Masao Ishihara was definitely not a fool with a lot of money.

Mayor Ishikawa said without hesitation: "If President Ishihara has any additional conditions, you can just say it." Kudo Mizuki said calmly: "My father only has a small request, which is that in the future, I need you to assist Karuizawa Group in Wakayama City. processing of steel-related business.”

Mayor Ishikawa was not surprised at all by her request.Before this, I had expected it.

Mayor Ishikawa believes that this matter will not be so simple and smooth.The reason why he had this idea was entirely based on his rich work experience and experience accumulated in the past.

Mayor Ishikawa gave a verbal promise: "There is no problem. However, it must not be that simple!"

Kudo Mizuki said calmly: "Wakayama City's steel plant, and even related industries, may be going through a major reshuffle. This requires necessary assistance from the Wakayama City Government.

It is inevitable that many local companies will go bankrupt and a large number of people will be unemployed.Naturally, the trade unions will not sit idly by and will inevitably organize workers' protests.

As for the trade union, there is nothing to worry about. After all, the trade union cadres and leaders can be directly bribed.Anyone among them who refuses to agree probably thinks that the conditions offered are not good enough.

Beyond that, there is absolutely no chance that all other staff will be rehired.This is especially true for older people, who may find it difficult to be rehired.

Of course, this is not an absolute thing.For example, if it has mastered excellent technology, especially core technology or has strong R&D capabilities, then that is a different matter. "

Mayor Ishikawa understood completely upon hearing this: “These people will definitely not only protest inside the factory, but also come to protest in front of Wakayama City Hall.

An important industry in Wakayama City is the steel industry.Although it has not been very prosperous, it has placed a large number of employed people.

Your Karuizawa Group's major reshuffle is tantamount to directly destroying the source of income of many people and families.

In addition, employees working in small restaurants, izakayas, karaoke bars, small bars, etc. will also be affected indirectly.These people also depend on the steel industry for their lives.

The steel workers are all unemployed, so who will go to them to spend money?Those small businesses located close to steel plants and related companies may also have to close their doors.

I can guarantee that they will also organize themselves to protest in front of the Wakayama City Hall.By then, we don’t know how many people will be unable to bear it and end up in a desperate situation. "

Kudo Mizuki is not a hard-hearted woman and said: "Personally, I am naturally opposed to it. However, my father's words are not unreasonable.

He is considering the issue from a higher strategic perspective.The pain and sacrifice caused by this are inevitable.Otherwise, the future economy of the entire Wakayama City will be seriously dragged down.

Rather than leaving Wakayama City’s steel-related industries to die, it would be better for a phoenix to rise from the ashes and be reborn.Wakayama City and Kobe City were both former steel bases in the Kansai region of Japan.

How come Kobe Steel in Kobe City has become Japan's third largest steel company after reshuffle and integration, and is full of vitality again?
However, Wakayama City's steel industry is currently in decline.If you change the status quo without learning from the experience, even if you want to maintain the situation, it won't last long. "
