Chapter 704 I won't take you to play
"Didn't you agree to be 500 million? Why did it become 800 million!"
Cao Guangshan was honest and jumped up now. Yan Delin told him that he would ask Feng Xiaochen to pay the price, to see if he could reduce it from 500 million to 300 million, or 350 million, or 300 million, or 400 million, or even a little saving. Yan Delin gave him the upper limit, that is, to promise to pay 400 million. According to Yan Delin, the price offered always has some room for 500 million. Feng Xiaochen said that he would reduce it to 400 million, which should be in line with Feng Xiaochen's psychological expectations.
But who knew that Feng Xiaochen was not the one who did things as expected at all. Not only did he not give Cao Guangshan a discount on the original offer, he became even worse, jumping directly from 500 million to 800 million. This was simply challenging Cao Guangshan's IQ.
"I did say 500 million in the past," Feng Xiaochen said with a calm face, "But that seems to be a week ago, right? Now the situation has changed, and the amount of funds we are planning to raise has also increased, so if Jiang Gang cannot afford 800 million, then forget it, we will find other companies to get it together."
"Eighty million yuan, this is completely impossible." Cao Guangshan said flatly, "Mr. Feng, you know what Jiang Gang is doing. We did make some money in the past two years, but we have invested in expanding and reproduction. Well, at most, we have built a few employee dormitories, and it didn't cost much. Now even if we have to take out 400 million yuan, we have to find a bank loan to support it. This suddenly becomes 800 million yuan. How can we get it out?"
Feng Xiaochen smiled slightly and said, "Old Cao, you are an honest person, don't tell lies with Yan Delin. I have learned that Jianggang can take out at least one billion in his account, leaving 200 million to maintain production. The remaining money is not difficult at all for investment."
Cao Guangshan blushed. How could he know how much money the factory has? Feng Xiaochen said that Jiang Gang could at least take out one billion yuan, which is similar to what Cao Guangshan has mastered. However, this money cannot be invested casually. The factory committee has already made arrangements for the money, including building an extremely luxurious new office building, building a hotel, expanding an auditorium, repairing roads, and building dozens of employee dormitories. As for giving bonuses and welfare, it can only be considered small money.
According to Yan Delin's original idea, Jiang Gang was unwilling to take out a penny to invest in any iron ore. But now the channel for importing iron ore has been stuck. If Jiang Gang does not express anything, he will not be able to divide the iron ore imported from Africa. Production in the second half of the year and even in the next one or two years will be seriously affected. In this case, Yan Delin had to agree to allocate 400 million yuan to participate in overseas iron ore investment organized by the equipment company. Of course, he would claim that the 400 million yuan was squeezed out by Jiang Gang for saving money, so no matter how much it is, don't think about it.
Jianggang and the equipment company are in a negotiation. As a negotiation, of course, if you have to choose the most favorable words for yourself, you will inevitably have to say some lies. Of course, lies are exposed by others. For the old Jianghu, it is nothing, but Cao Guangshan felt that his face could not be kept and his head hung down.
"Mr. Feng, you are really...ah, you're so clear." Cao Guangshan admitted Feng Xiaochen's words in disguise, and then said: "Our factory taps potential and squeezes out eight or nine million yuan. It's probably OK. But in this way, our factory has no working capital. What should we do with the subsequent production? Didn't you say last time that you hope we will pay 500 million yuan? I think it's better to maintain the original amount. I'll talk to Director Yan and try to get 500 million yuan. What do you think?"
Feng Xiaochen shook his head and said, "Old Cao, I won't make you embarrassed. You just go directly to Director Yan, we hope that Jianggang's participation amount will be 800 million. If it is less than this number, we won't force it. To be honest, Lao Cao said that Linhe Iron and Steel Plant, Pujiang Iron and Steel Plant, are all very interested in investing in overseas mines. If they have a mere 800 million investment, they will definitely be able to make up."
"No, how much money do they plan to pay?" Cao Guangshan asked.
Feng Xiaochen said: "We treat each other equally now, each company is 800 million. The operating conditions of Pujiang Steel Plant are better. After coordination, we agreed that they will pay 1.2 billion. I took the 800 million quota from them. If you don't want it, I will give it back to them."
"Well……"
Cao Guangshan was speechless. Judging from Feng Xiaochen's meaning, investing in iron ore has become a kind of welfare, so that everyone is rushing to pay the money. Feng Xiaochen left Jiang Gang a 800 million quota out of kindness. If Jiang Gang was unwilling to pay the money, he would be really sorry to Feng Xiaochen.
"Mr. Feng, can you give me a clear idea? What kind of iron ore is the country going to invest in this time? How much profit is this investment?" Cao Guangshan asked. He couldn't tell whether Feng Xiaochen said true or falsely. In short, with his emotional intelligence, he could not play with Feng Xiaochen. It would be better to play the emotional card and let Feng Xiaochen explain to him what was going on.
Feng Xiaochen smiled and said, "Old Cao, this Asian financial crisis is both a crisis and it will inevitably contain opportunities. According to experts from the Academy of Social Sciences, Indonesia, the Philippines and other countries may be affected by the crisis and their economy will fall into serious difficulties. At this time, as a responsible major country and a friendly and friendly country in Southeast Asian countries, can our country be saved by death?"
"Of course not." Cao Guangshan responded to Feng Xiaochen's words, but muttered in his heart: Why can't we not save him? Also, what does this have to do with iron ore?
Feng Xiaochen continued: "There are problems in these countries, and industrial and agricultural production will definitely be affected. The factories and mines in their territory will definitely fall into the dilemma of insufficient start-up, and some companies may even go bankrupt. We have discussed with the leaders of some large domestic steel companies that at this time, we should actively lend a helping hand to take over their iron ore, help them resume production, and implement self-rescue. To take over the iron ore, you need to have enough funds. The national finance cannot provide this money. Even if it can be used and acquired in the name of the country, it is not appropriate. If it is acquired in the name of the steel company, this is a normal corporate behavior and no one can say anything."
"You mean, what we are going to acquire is the iron ore from Indonesia and the Philippines?" Cao Guangshan suddenly realized. As a deputy director of a large steel company, he has some understanding of the entire steel industry chain, so he also knows that Indonesia and the Philippines have some high-quality iron ore with rich reserves and high grades. Previously, Jianggang had also imported iron ore from these countries, and its quality is much better than domestic ore.
Another advantage of iron ore in Indonesia and the Philippines is that it is closer to China and can save a lot of transportation costs of iron ore, and the money saved can be converted into corporate profits.
In the past, relevant state departments had also had the idea of acquiring several Indonesian and Philippine iron ore companies, but the owners of these iron ore did not have the idea of selling iron ore at that time, and the price quoted was ridiculously high, so the acquisition was put on hold.
Now, the financial turmoil is coming to Indonesia and the Philippines. The currencies of these countries have begun to depreciate, and it is not until the full collapse that Soros is about to hit the end. When the economy collapses, the asset value will shrink significantly. The iron ore that was originally held in its hands and unwilling to sell, may have to be sold in tears under the pressure of debt.
For China, now is an excellent opportunity to buy at the bottom. If you spend a little money, you can get several high-quality iron ore. This kind of good thing is not a once-in-a-lifetime thing, it will take at least ten years to encounter it, right? For a company, more than ten years is not short. If you miss this opportunity now, you will have to regret it in the next ten years.
Haven't you seen that last year, Feng Xiaochen recommended everyone to invest in Pitsig Iron Mine, and everyone pushed for it, and always felt that such investment was meaningless. In just over a year, reality came out and slapped the situation. The country has blocked the foreign exchange quota, and these large state-owned steel companies have all caught the blind spot. As the saying goes, learn from one mistake and have been educated once. Now there is a new opportunity. Can you still seize it quickly?
"So that's it!" Cao Guangshan suddenly figured out and understood why Feng Xiaochen said that leaving Jianggang with a 800 million quota was good for Jianggang. Now spending 800 million, the value of the iron ore I bought is definitely more than 800 million, and it is entirely possible that it was more than one billion or billion assets. Considering that China's steel demand will continue to rise in the future, the price of iron ore will inevitably rise but not fall. This 800 million investment is a huge profit.
Feng Xiaochen said that companies such as Lingang, Pugang, and Nangang want to spend more money to obtain more shares. This seems to be a lie. With such confidence, it is no wonder that Feng Xiaochen dares to challenge Jiang Gang, claiming that if Jiang Gang does not agree to pay 800 million, he will not take Jiang Gang to play.
"Mr. Feng, I will report to Director Yan immediately. We Jianggang must cooperate fully in this matter. In terms of funds, we are indeed under some pressure, but we will find a way to overcome the pressure and will definitely take out the 800 million yuan of funds." Cao Guangshan swears at Feng Xiaochen.
Feng Xiaochen waved his hand and said, "Old Cao, you don't have to make any guarantee for me. If you invest in something like this, it's better to be voluntary. We won't force any company to pay."
"It's not a forced force, this is the opportunity Mr. Feng gave us, and we will definitely cherish it."
"It would be best if you can think like this. Lao Cao, go and discuss with Director Yan and see how you plan to participate. However, you have to hurry up. What I am talking about now is 800 million, and maybe it will become one billion in a few days."
