Chapter: 2204

Song Ronghui spoke calmly, saying, "40% is nothing. I'm doing this not for money, but more so that Hashimoto-san and I can become friends."

Hashimoto-san laughed again and said, "Song Mr., you're really too generous! However, I want to know, what's the success rate of this thing?"

Song Ronghui spoke seriously, saying, "As long as you have the ability to keep my niece in Tokyo, the success rate of this thing is definitely 100%!"

Hashimoto-san said, "Song Mr., I'm not saying you're untrustworthy. It's just that I've heard that before your uncle inherits the position of the Song family head, the current head was always your grandfather. If I leave your niece in Tokyo, can you definitely take up the position of the Song family head?"

Song Ronghui smiled coldly and spoke seriously, "My grandfather is old now, already at the age where he may not be able to eat rice again. Even if he wants to sit back down as head, it will certainly be a case of having more power than one's strength."

He then said, "And besides, Hashimoto-san, you can rest assured. As soon as I've made up my mind to do this thing, there is no going back. Even if it's my own relatives blocking my way, I'll take the righteous path and sacrifice them! So, as long as you on your side can cooperate with me well, I won't let you down!"

Hashimoto-san let out a bitter sigh and said, "Ah, Song Mr., indeed you are bold and wise. However, there is one thing that I must say upfront."

Song Ronghui hurriedly said, "Please go ahead, Hashimoto-san."

Hashimoto-san spoke slowly, "Song Mr., I can help you resolve the trouble of your niece, but after I've helped you resolve it, you must definitely fulfill your promise to me. Otherwise, the recording of our conversation today may be transmitted to the Song family or even the Japanese police!"

Song Ronghui didn't hesitate and said, "Hashimoto-san, please rest assured that this is no problem. After we succeed, I will definitely fulfill my promise to you one hundred percent!"

After returning yesterday, Song Wenting spent a whole night thinking about how to get New Japan Iron. She prepared multiple schemes in case of unexpected situations.

Once they sat down at the negotiation table, Song Wenting pulled out her first plan immediately.

In this first plan, she still insisted on controlling 51% of the company, but as a reward, she was willing to adjust the profit ratio to 40%:60% during their five-year cooperation period.

That is to say, New Japan Iron would get 60% of the net profit for the first five years, and then it would be adjusted to 55%;

He no longer rejected Song Wenting's proposal as bluntly as he did yesterday. Instead, he started to engage in a game of Taichi with Song Wenting.

He said many things ambiguously, neither agreeing nor rejecting, which left Song Wenting feeling very helpless.

They continued negotiating from morning until almost evening. Song Wenting had already adjusted the profit ratio for New Japan Iron's first five years to 65%, but Hashimoto Kin still refused to agree.

Song Wenting was really at a loss, only able to reveal her trump card and say, "Mr. Hashimoto, it seems that neither of us are willing to give in on the issue of controlling the company. If not, would you consider this proposal? We can hold an equal 50% stake, ensuring each other has 50% voting rights, no matter what happens. All cooperation will be done equally and fairly, and if we encounter any disagreements, we can divide all remaining assets in a 50-50 ratio."

Hashimoto Kin raised an eyebrow slightly, sighing and saying, "Miss Song, if both sides hold equal stakes of 50%, it would mean that neither side has the initiative. What's the point of even cooperating? If no one can make a final decision, wouldn't we just be stuck in a cycle of 'you don't listen to me, I don't listen to you', but who can do anything about it?"

Song Wenting spoke seriously and said, "Mr. Hashimoto, if we both want to make our cooperation the best it can be, even if disagreements arise, I believe we can resolve them peacefully and fairly, rather than engaging in a never-ending struggle. Since we're seeking cooperation, let's work together to get things done. If this premise is not met, then cooperation would indeed be difficult to continue."

As she spoke, Song Wenting added, "So if you really have the sincerity to cooperate with our Song Group, equal stakes of 50-50 wouldn't be a problem. But if you don't have that sincerity, even letting you control the company might not result in successful cooperation."

Hashimoto Kin looked embarrassed and said, "Miss Song, there's an old Chinese saying that goes 'first treat others with kindness, then yourself'. Since we're cooperating, we should consider all possible worst-case scenarios. You say it is so?"

Song Wenting nodded and said, "Mr. Hashimoto, equal stakes of 50-50 would still mean a 5-point advantage to you. This is our final bottom line. If you think you can cooperate, let's continue discussing. But if you don't think you can, we'll just have to say sorry and part ways. It all depends on your decision." JrNovels.com
