I am a literary giant in Japan

What the hell does Masato Senhara remember about the 5 million yen loan!

Recently, he has been busy running Kitagawa Investment for Kitagawa Sensei. With funds worth tens of billions, he has no time to take care of a mere 5 million yen loan.

Seeing his puzzled expression, Asano Masaru explained: "In the last quarter, in order for the branch to successfully win the annual best."

"The loan from Amemiya Electric?" Masato Senhara recalled, and then everything became clear.

Amemiya Electric is a relatively well-known small and medium-sized enterprise in Shinjuku Ward, and it is said that the president has a close relationship with the district councilor.

In order to allow the branch to compete for the best of the year and give himself the opportunity to enter the management of the head office, Asano Masato assigned this loan to Senhara Masato's financing class.

Now you know without asking that this loan has become a bad debt and someone has to take the blame.

The subordinates’ achievements are the credit of their superiors, and the superiors’ mistakes are the subordinates’ responsibility.

This is the hidden iron law of the Japanese banking industry!
“Yes, that loan.

President Amemiya of Amemiya Electric was taken away by officials from the Ministry of Finance a few days ago.

Not only this 5 million yen loan, he also had connections with employees of several banks. It seems that there is a high probability that he will be sentenced for embezzlement.

The Ministry of Finance originally wanted to conduct a thorough investigation into our problems, but don't worry, General Manager Yamatoda and I have helped to stop it.

The situation in the industry is not good right now, Chihara-san, you should go to Hokkaido to avoid the limelight."

Asano Masaru's tone was soft, with a hint of pleading in his voice.

No wonder.

After all, Masato Senhara is a star employee of the Shinjuku branch of the Industrial Central Bank. In the past few years, just by helping to maintain Kitagawa Hide, a big client, he has created countless profits for the bank.

And it was well known that he had a good relationship with Kitagawa-sensei, so maybe they were friends who could have a drink together.

Originally, Asano Masanobu definitely didn't want to make enemies with such an employee.

But the trouble is that Amemiya Electric's affairs are far more than just a 5 million yen loan.

A large portion of the public funds and bank loans embezzled by President Amemiya flowed into the political circle and were used as political donations to several Shinjuku Ward council members.

After the incident broke out, both sides needed someone capable enough to take the blame.

If this person is not Senhara Masato, then it can only be himself.

No matter how much he cared about the friendship with Teacher Kitagawa, Asano Masanobu could not "die rather than let his friend die."

Moreover, these days, Mr. Beichuan has secretly converted all his savings into US dollars and transferred them out.

The internal structure of the Industrial Central Bank has long been riddled with holes, and many face-saving issues have long been ignored.

Even so, Asano Masato was still very patient and humble in explaining to Senhara Masato.

"I'm so sorry! After this matter is over, I will definitely find someone to transfer you back to the branch, no, transfer you back to the head office!"

Asano Masato stood up and bowed slightly, then raised his eyes and glanced at Senhara Masato's reaction.

Masato Senhara remained calm throughout the whole process and his mood did not fluctuate too much.

Working in a bank is indeed very rewarding, but also very hard.

If he hadn't known Mr. Kitagawa, this move, which would have meant exile from which there would be no return, would have devastated his family.

But now.

The commission he earned from his temporary position in Beichuan Investment alone was several times his salary at the bank.

When money is no longer an issue, many things become less important.

"I see. I'll give you an answer in a few days."

Masato Senhara bowed slightly in return, then left with the envelope.

Similar scenarios continue to occur in other banks and other companies.

But not everyone can be as carefree and detached from the world as Masato Senhara.

When most people are oppressed and treated unfairly, they can only swallow their tears and bear it.

Because they are not alone.

With elderly parents and young children to take care of, more than a dozen people in two families are waiting for their wages. The middle-aged office workers in Japan, or in other parts of the world, are so miserable.

But even if they are willing to retreat again and again, the overall environment cannot be changed, and companies still go bankrupt in large numbers.

It only takes a few days.

There are more and more homeless people on the roadside and in the parks, and long queues are forming in front of community employment offices.

There are also many people who wait at the bank door early in the morning with their bank cards and passbooks, and run to withdraw money as soon as the bank opens.

Who cares whether your bank’s capital chain is in order? Just withdraw the money first!

This is to avoid the bank collapsing and all your savings being wasted.

Japan's main bank system became a deadly poison at this time.

Such small city commercial banks are also connected with at least dozens of local small and medium-sized enterprises.

The loans they provide are the source of funds for these enterprises.

If banks are run by the public, they will have to collect loans from customers.

Once the loans are recalled, companies with high debt ratios will suddenly face a funding cut.

With the funding chain broken and no new loans provided, the company’s bankruptcy is a matter of minutes.

There are upstream and downstream relationships between companies. If you do the math, a Japanese bank may have hundreds or even thousands of companies associated with it. It's really like a domino effect!
Salary cuts, persuasion to resign and even forced layoffs have become commonplace in Japanese companies. Before, when the Koreans were suffering so much, the Japanese were gloating over their misfortune.

Now, I have become a clown who is laughing at others when I am still in the same situation.

The social atmosphere in Japan, which used to be friendly, polite, and tried not to disturb other people's lives, has suddenly changed.

Your boss starts to become cruel and ruthless, your colleagues are no longer friendly to you, and even your best friends and relatives hang up the phone when you talk about money.
People began to cherish the money in their hands, consumption kept falling, and social atmosphere became extremely depressed.

"Teacher Beichuan, what do you think of this manuscript?"

A writer of the older generation, with white hair and reading glasses, came over like a student to ask Kitagawa Hide's opinion.

“As for this manuscript, the idea and the words are good, but it is too exaggerated and the excessive pursuit of the so-called sense of sadness will only make readers aesthetically fatigued and bored.

The so-called mono no aware refers to a type of text that naturally makes people feel pity, sadness, and emotion.

There is no need for any deliberate design, as long as the reader can feel the author's emotions in a paragraph of text. "

Kitagawa Hide glanced at the manuscript and answered truthfully,
“For example, there was a famous writer next door during the Republic of China period.

In his prose collection Wild Grass, there is a passage in Autumn Night: "In my backyard, I can see two trees outside the wall, one is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree."

Although the sentence is very simple, the overwhelming sadness makes people feel as if they are there. "

"One is a jujube tree, and the other is also a jujube tree." After reading the manuscript carefully, the old writer nodded continuously, agreeing very much with Kitagawa Hide's statement.

This famous quote by Lu Xun has been passed down to later generations, but has actually been almost ruined by netizens.

But look at it from another angle.

The fact that a sentence can be remembered, passed down and used for a long time is enough to prove that it makes many people feel the same and makes their emotions fluctuate.

This is the charm of language, writing and literary works.

Compared with film, television, audio and video works, literary works are the most difficult to arouse reactions from people's five senses.

But it is the pick that is most likely to touch the softest string in people's hearts.

Similar scenes have been played out repeatedly in the Imperial Hotel in Tokyo over the past few days.

Kitagawa Hide was invited to become the only lifetime judge of the Naoki Prize, and then was locked in a hotel with a large group of such old men and women.

In the past, it was his novels that were reviewed and nominated for awards, but this time, he was reviewing other people’s novels as a senior and judge.

This feeling is quite novel.

This also allowed Kitagawa Hide to further understand the operating mechanisms of these literary awards.

In the future, "Beichuan" will definitely rely on the Beichuan Award for further development, and it is also a good thing to know some industry insider information.

As Kitagawa Hide was flipping through the pile of manuscripts, a submission titled "Love Letter" caught his attention. (End of this chapter)
