After the Sixth Sense Company got listed, it became a hot topic. After all, this was the world's first company to go public that specialized in producing sex toys. Many media outlets reported about it. This also gave the Sixth Sense Company free publicity for a period of time. While the Sixth Sense Company's stock price rose, its sales also increased.
The Sixth Sense Company's debt ratio was very high because they had a lot of loans. When Masao Kameda made the decision to take a large loan, Feng Yu expressed his support.
Japan's economy was stagnating, and the brands of Japanese electronics and chemical companies were affected. This year, Japan's economy was experiencing negative growth again.
At this time, Tomiichi Murayama made an extreme decision. He cut interest rates to stimulate consumption. In normal countries, cutting interest rates to stimulate consumption was a common tactic. But no other country had done something as extreme as Japan.
Japan's deposit interest rates were as low as 0.08%, and many people joked that they had to pay for their deposits! When the deposit interest rates were lowered, the loan interest rates were also lowered significantly.
So, Masao Kameda realized that the interest rates for loans were too low. If he did not get a loan, he would feel like he was suffering a loss. Masao Kameda used some tricks to get a loan of 400 million USD. Based on the exchange rate at that time, it was equivalent to 36 billion Yen!
Now, the exchange rate between USD and Yen had increased to 1: 80. This amount of Yen could be exchanged for more USD. Just by changing hands, Feng Yu could make profits. With such low interest rates, Feng Yu was tempted. So, he asked Heitaro Nakajima to get a loan in USD and Yen. Feng Yu wanted to borrow as much as he could. Even if he used the money to invest in the US stock market, he would still make high profits.
Furthermore, Feng Yu had invested all his money into the US stock market. Almost all of his money had been exchanged for Microsoft shares. If he needed funds, he would not be willing to sell his Microsoft shares. What will happen to the company's development?
With a low interest rate loan, everything would be fine! Anyway, Aiwa was not a listed company, and Feng Yu was the controlling shareholder. If there were any problems, he could use this portion of funds to cover up the company's losses. Feng Yu had even used a portion of this fund to invest in the US stock market and acquire Microsoft shares.
During this period, many international investors had taken loans from Japanese banks. They had the same motive as Feng Yu. They want to invest in the US stock market. This also stimulated the US stock market to become more prosperous, and more funds were flowing into the US.
Many people felt that this year will be a bull market for the US stock market. Feng Yu also thinks so. He had analyzed the market and found that the indexes and curves are very similar to his previous life. Although there are some differences, it is not a big difference.
With so much money flowing into the market, the Dow Jones Index rose from 3,800 at the beginning of the year to more than 4,000. After crossing the 4,000 mark, it continued to rise.
Based on Feng Yu's estimation, the Dow Jones Index will reach more than 5,000 by the end of this year. It will be the same as Feng Yu's previous life. This will start a bull market in the US and form a huge economic bubble. Many economists describe this period as an irrational boom!
What Feng Yu needs to do next is to make a fortune before this economic bubble bursts. After that, he will retire and hide his achievements!
This irrational boom was pushed by the Clinton administration. It was also because of the booming economy that he was able to be re-elected easily.
Of course, the last year of his tenure was also the time when the technology and internet stocks collapsed. However, he also retired with success, truly achieving both fame and fortune.

After the listing of the company, Masao Kameda went to Europe. He needs to focus on the new factories and retail stores there. Any mistake will cause the share prices to drop.
Other companies can still ride on the coattails of other companies. When there is good news in a certain industry, the shares of the whole industry will rise. But the Sixth Sense Company does not have such conditions. This is because there are no similar companies getting listed!
Any representative listed company can be part of the stock index, especially the Nasdaq index. The index is made up of 100 most important stocks in the Nasdaq market. Standard & Poor's index is made up of 500 stocks.
These index stocks can be increased. If the company becomes an index stock, it will be a great honor. Masao Kameda felt that the Sixth Sense Company should be part of the Nasdaq index!
Feng Yu is supportive of this. In the future, the Nasdaq Composite Index will include more than 5,000 companies. Why can't the Sixth Sense Company be one of them?
Although the Sixth Sense Company was not classified as a computer company, insurance company, bank company, or biotechnology company, it was still classified as an industrial company, right?
Who says the production of inflatable dolls is not considered an industrial company? Condom production is not considered an industrial company? Silicone and rubber industries are not considered an industrial company?
Even if the Sixth Sense Company cannot be considered as an industrial company, it should not be a problem for it to enter the Composite Index. After the Sixth Sense Company got listed, there will be more similar companies getting listed in the future. The Sixth Sense Company is one of the top companies. What's wrong with this?
Perhaps none of the financiers had thought that a company that produced sex toys would become one of the components of the Nasdaq Composite Index in the future.
Even Feng Yu had not thought of this before!
It was until Masao Kameda mentioned this to Feng Yu.
Masao Kameda is very ambitious. Feng Yu knew this from the start. Someone once said that a person without ambition will not be able to achieve anything. Every famous person in history had ambition.
This ambition could be to enter politics, to become a higher official, or even to be the master of the country. It could also be to earn more money, or to be known by more people, and so on. However, no matter which famous person in history had no ambition, he or she would inexplicably succeed.
The more ambitious Masao Kameda is, the happier Feng Yu is. This is because Masao Kameda will continue to work hard to achieve his ambition. He will continue to develop the Sixth Sense Company. He will continue to make money for Feng Yu!
In the end, the major shareholder of the Sixth Sense Company is still Feng Yu. Even after the Sixth Sense Company got listed and issued 30% of the company's shares, Feng Yu still owns more than 51% of the company's shares. He is still the major shareholder. Feng Yu still owns more than two-thirds of the shares with voting rights. He is still in control of the company's shareholders meeting, which is the company's highest authority.
That's why Feng Yu is not afraid of Masao Kameda's ambition toppling the Sixth Sense Company's authority. He can still control the company and Masao Kameda!
