Chapter 149 After the fierce battle
Everyone in the conference room was so shocked by Shirai's kneeling and apologizing.
The banker named Hanzawa not only made former executive Yamatoda kneel down to apologize, but even the acting president ended up today.
At this time, the scene gradually returned to control.
The directors and subordinates who were loyal to Shirai also announced their surrender.
The situation of fierce confrontation between the two factions eased.
Shirai and several directors of the original industry were taken out of the conference room. Shirai - the deputy president of the Central Bank of Tokyo, can be regarded as a hero in the industry. When he finally left the market, his expression seemed to be in a daze. Everything he had worked hard to do turned to waste today.
However, although Shirai was taken away, the tension in the conference room had not yet dissipated.
Because all these biggest variables are still here - that Beiyuan lawyer!!!
All the directors present and the bank executives were staring at Kitahara.
From the first on-site inspection that the bank caught off guard, the second on-site inspection, the President Nakano was taken away and questioned. Then to the chaos of the board of directors today.
Although they didn't know how much Kitaru contributed to today's conflict, judging from the close contact between Hanzawa and him, he was probably the role of mastermind here.
Now, what should I do?
Many former directors of the Tokyo School also began to worry.
This Kitahara lawyer is a huge uncontrollable factor for them. Hanzawa investigated the Yoshizawa Trust case and the relationship between Shirai and Eriko so clearly, Kitahara must have played a great role in this.
If lawyer Beiyuan can check this point so clearly, what elsewhere?
Is there anything that the Central Bank of Tokyo hidden in something uglier and dirty than what Shirai did?
No one dares to make a guarantee.
In particular, today's Hanzawa also mentioned the name Eriko.
Eriko is a taboo name for the senior management of the Tokyo Central Bank.
Because this is a person who has almost incompatible with the original Tokyo faction and the original industry faction.
The impact of the cleaning of senior bank personnel caused by the Minghui Island adverse incident at that time still has far-reaching impacts.
Is it possible for this lawyer from Kitahara to investigate further?
These are all unanswered questions.
Therefore, the former Tokyo Sect director present was still worried and did not relax because of Shirai's departure. Everyone's eyes fell on President Nakano.
After experiencing this morning's conflict, President Nakano finally spoke at this time.
Nakano said: "Today's board of directors, we have Mr. Narita, a member of the MP. Later, Mr. Kitawara, an advisor to the Finance Department, also visited here. The Central Bank of Tokyo is not a simple private institution. We are more responsible for the mission of openness and transparency to the public, so that we can be worthy of giving our savings to our people."
"So, I suggest that today's meeting also allow the Kitahara lawyer to attend and continue."
What?! The board of directors continues?! And Kitahara continues to participate?! Nakano's words were beyond the expectations of everyone present.
In fact, people from the Finance Department participated in the internal meetings of the bank?!
Even the Narita MP who was standing by the side did not expect that the Nakano president would make such arrangements. For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on the president.
At present, Narita has witnessed the conflict between the board of directors today.
This is no longer an internal meeting of the Tokyo Central Bank.
How today's meeting will end, in a sense, will also determine the fate of banks in the future.
Is Nakano's President smart enough to deal with this difficult situation?!
The secretary beside him followed the president's instructions and began to read out the meeting schedule. His voice trembled a little, and he obviously didn't believe that the president had just announced the decision to continue the meeting.
"Now...now," said the secretary, "For the Yoshizawa Trust case, Deputy Director Hanzawa's report has ended. Please discuss the determination of the results of this report next."
The words fell.
The entire conference room was silent.
No one has made a point of view or opinion.
After such a fierce conflict, the bank's directors chose a smarter and more vigilant attitude.
After all, if you deny Hanze's investigation results, you are denying the facts. If you agree with Hanze's investigation results, it means that the bank may be severely fined next.
President Nakano looked at the silent appearance in the conference room, narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said, "Since you have no objection, then I will order the reply to this regulatory letter of the Financial Department, based on the investigation report of Deputy Director Hanzawa. Our bank will wholeheartedly and honestly express our attitude to the regulatory authorities!"
The president of the Tokyo Central Bank did not choose to back off.
Instead, he chose to take responsibility.
The order in the name of the president means that the decision is made by Nakano himself in full.
This means that no matter what kind of punishment the Tokyo Central Bank may be subject to in the future, Nakano will explain it to the bank's shareholders and senior management.
Everyone present couldn't help but take a breath.
Only those working in banks know how courage and weight this decision takes.
This means that Nakano alone bears the consequences of uncertainty in future punishments.
If the punishment is beyond the expectations, then the position of Nakano's president will definitely be removed.
But even so, Nakano made this decision.
A decision that weighs a lot.
Narita was also a little surprised to see this. You should know that he had mediated countless times between regulators and banks as an intermediary.
Such a straightforward attitude is extremely rare.
When a violation scandal occurs, the supervisors always like to turn big things into small things and cover up the past in small things.
Kitahara was listening to this decision and suddenly felt that the Nakano president became even more interesting. From the first meeting of Nakano president, Kitahara had a feeling. This president was definitely not a simple person.
From being interviewed by the Finance Department alone, to announcing the meeting as usual today.
Every step of planning is an extraordinary chess.
Kitano's instinct told himself that Nakano's planning and computing ability was probably what he saw in his own eyes, among the crowd at the top.
After announcing the decision on the Yoshizawa Trust case, President Nakano opened the meeting documents on the table again. The next step was the personnel decision. Among the prepared documents, there was a decision to expel Hanzawa.
President Nakano browsed and said with a solemn expression:
Chapter completed!
