The giant corporations that started in Night City

"I! Arasaka Yorinobu will definitely lead Arasaka Corporation and Night City to a brand new future. Arasaka Corporation will establish a brand new order and allow everyone to enjoy fair treatment."

"Similarly, I will join hands with more companies to participate in healthy cooperation and competition to drive global employment and technological productivity."

"To believe in me, Arasaka Yorinobu, is to believe in a better future!"

"..."

Arasaka Yorinobu's passionate speech made the fans in the audience cheer, as if they really saw a better future without Arasaka Saburo.

But when this scene was transmitted to Tokyo, Japan, the headquarters of Arasaka Corporation, there were only doubts and anger from the Arasaka elders!

Rather than finding the real murderer, they would rather believe that Arasaka Yorinobu was the real murderer of Arasaka Saburo!

"Yori Nobuyuki is the traitor of Arasaka! He must have killed Lord Saburo. Look at his arrogant face. He is clearly an unfilial son who killed his father."

The person who spoke was the representative of the elder members of Arasaka. His name was Daijiro Ashiri, and he was the right-hand man of Arasaka.

When he learned that the rebellious son Yori Nobuyuki was going to return to the company, Daijiro was the first Arasaka executive to jump out and oppose it. He really looked down on Yori Nobuyuki, a playboy.

The words of Daijiro Ashiri resonated with the elders of Arasaka present. They have always opposed Yori Nobuyuki's corporate reform ideas. Faced with Yori Nobuyuki's blatant power grab, they were of course very angry.

After all, no one wants the foundation they have worked hard for Arasaka for many years to be wiped out by the hawkish young man.

Just when the elders in the meeting room of Arasaka headquarters were arguing fiercely, Arasaka Hanako's "quiet" immediately suppressed the chaotic noise.

In an instant, the company elders present all looked at Arasaka Hanako who was not far away. This thin-faced woman with high cheekbones was the biological daughter of Arasaka Saburo.

In terms of the company's legal system, Arasaka Hanako, like her brother Arasaka Yorinobu, was qualified to inherit the Arasaka Company!

Moreover, Arasaka Hanako was the leader of the company's Pheasant Faction, and she represented the interests of the company elders.

"Before my father went to Night City, he asked me to take care of the company's affairs. Now my brother is stabilizing the overall situation in Night City, but you say he is trying to seize power. Do you mean to destroy the Arasaka family?"

Arasaka Hanako was not angry at Arasaka Yorinobu's "eager for quick success and instant benefits" behavior. She neither criticized Yorinobu's actions nor made a big show of wanting to compete with her brother.

On the contrary, Arasaka Hanako unexpectedly stood on the side of her brother Yorinobu, which puzzled the Arasaka elders present.

Obviously, Arasaka Hanako has always been implementing Saburo's company development route, so why would she suddenly support Arasaka Yorinobu, the unfilial son.

"Miss Hanako, before Saburo left Tokyo, he designated you as his agent. Now it should be you who is in charge of the company, not Arasaka Yorinobu!"

Ashiri Daijiro frowned. He didn't want Arasaka Yorinobu to succeed, otherwise they, the company's veteran members, would definitely be kicked out by Yorinobu.

The internal factional struggle of Arasaka has long entered a white-hot stage. Daijiro sees that the hawkish young people are still immature and don't know how to develop the company at all.

However, the hawkish young people think that Arasaka Saburo, Ashiri Daijiro and other old guys are corrupt and ignorant, and can't see the future trend at all.

The irreconcilable factional conflicts have made the internal situation of Arasaka Company precarious!

"I know you have opinions about Rai Xuan, but now only my brother can stabilize the situation. There can be no internal strife in Arasaka."

Arasaka Hanako's voice is still calm.

She was not instigated by the fanatical company elders below to lose her mind. If there is really internal turmoil in Arasaka, other companies will definitely benefit.

Although the main giant force in Japan is Arasaka, Fuji Bank, Kenritsu Group, Tsulang Defense Systems and other companies are also ready to move, ready to take a piece of Arasaka meat at any time.

Arasaka has a leading influence in Japan, and it is precisely because of this that Arasaka has many enemies. Once there is a tendency to decline, it will be immediately liquidated and eaten!

The more at this critical moment, the more powerful iron-fisted figures are needed to stand up and turn the tide!

And Arasaka Rai Xuan is the best choice at the moment.

Of course, this is only temporary.

"I know what you are thinking. You suspect that Rai Nobuyuki killed my father, but the matter is under investigation. Before the results come out, only Rai Nobuyuki can be responsible for controlling the company's important affairs."

As soon as Arasaka Hanako said this, all the Arasaka elders in the audience immediately shut up. They each pondered over Hanako's words and tried to guess each other's thoughts.

Obviously, they did not think that Hanako, who always did things in a decisive manner, would be afraid of her brother Rai Nobuyuki at this time. There must be a deeper reason behind this.

"Okay... okay!"

For a moment, Ashili Daijiro suspected that the news of Saburo's death was false news, otherwise how could Hanako, who always obeyed Saburo Arasaka, behave so calmly.

This is not the performance of a daughter who lost her father!

According to their imagination, Arasaka Hanako should confront Rai Nobuyuki and directly seize the position of the head of Arasaka, but the reality is not like this.

Faced with Arasaka Yoshinobu's struggle for power, Hanako's response was very calm. For a while, Ojiro couldn't tell whether Hanako had other plans or really chose to surrender to Yoshinobu.

Or... what is Arasaka Hanako waiting for!

Ojiro shook his head. Since he couldn't guess the other party's intention, he would wait and see for the time being.

In the following board meeting, Arasaka Hanako dealt with some important company matters, such as Arasaka's "Soul Guardian" plan and the test of the Great Oni Power Armor Device.

The Soul Guardian Plan is the "AI Digital Immortality" promoted by Arasaka based on the Relic chip. This technology can make the rich who desire immortality realize their dreams.

Therefore, when Arasaka first launched this plan, they immediately received investment from elites from all walks of life around the world, including European consortium forces!

The Great Oni Power Armor Device is a product that Arasaka is preparing to release at this year's International Arms Exhibition.

But from the results of Adam Heavy Hammer's personal test, they had to admit that this was a completely defective product. No local warlord would pay for this kind of suicide weapon.

"Mr. Daijiro, please bring Arasaka's kinetic and technical weapons to this year's International Weapons Exhibition. As for the Daiki Power Armor Device... let's put it aside for the time being."

Arasaka Hanako looked at Ashiri Daijiro and said, she was already very skilled in handling such company matters.
