Seeing Bobby's embarrassed look, Xiao Qi smiled again and said: "If you can't decide now, you can go back and discuss it carefully. I'm not in a hurry."
"Well, I can't decide. I can only wait for discussion." Bobby naturally would not show anxiety in front of Xiao Qi, and squeezed out a smile and said: "By the way, I came in a hurry this time.
What gift can you bring to congratulate Miss Tang on her pregnancy? I will add this blessing in a few days."
"Thank you." Xiao Qi nodded and said, "I just have some good news to tell you."
"What's the good news?" Bobby said a little listlessly.
"Romania's Bitdefender Anti-Virus Software Company is a company invested by Green Pine Capital, right?" Xiao Qi asked.
Bobby's sense of smell was very sensitive, and he perked up after hearing this: "Qi Shao, do you want to invest in this company?"
"It's not an investment, it's a wholly-owned acquisition." Xiao Qi nodded and said, "I remember that Green Pine Capital was also responsible for leading the sale, right?"
"Yes! We are definitely professional in this area. We are no worse than Goldman Sachs and Citigroup. Our fees are cheaper and our services are quicker." Bobby directly promoted: "Bitdefender is great! When we invested in it before,
I think this company has development potential. If it really works well and big capital supports it, it will be no worse than Kaspersky! It is no worse than mcafee! If you want to fully invest in it, it is definitely the best decision!"
"Don't be too busy saying nice things." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "I have a lot of demands. The first is a wholly-owned acquisition. The second is that I want to bring all the main engineers of the entire Bitdefender company back to China. Not a single one of them.
fall."
"The first one is easy to say, as long as you have money. But the second one..." Bobby smiled bitterly: "Eastern Europeans are more home-loving than the French. It's not easy to deal with half of them, let alone all of them. I
There’s no way!”
Across the world, the people who love their families the most at work are actually not the Chinese.
Many French people basically will not leave their own city whether they are born, old, sick or dead. If your factory wants to relocate to other cities, I'm sorry, at least 80% of the employees will resign because they will not leave their hometown - so why do you say France
There are so many century-old shops? Aren’t they forced out?
Speaking of Eastern Europeans loving their families, this is actually not entirely true. In many developed countries in Western Europe, there are quite a few Eastern Europeans working part-time.
But anyone with some qualifications will not leave their hometown, and if they are strong enough, they will not move even an inch.
This is the case for this group of engineers in Romania. They are already a wealthy middle class, and their pursuit of wealth is very weak. They feel like they are living on their own one-third of an acre of land.
I'm afraid this is one of the important reasons why Bitdefender doesn't develop much in America and Asia.
"Like this." Xiao Qi muttered and said, "You negotiate with them one by one. I will sign a five-year contract at least. There is no limit to the maximum number of years. The treatment will all be in accordance with the standards of Fairy Laboratory. And I will give
They have sufficient leave-from-home allowance and at least 2 months of family leave every year, what do you think?"
The salary package of Fairy Lab is very famous in the world. Even if it is converted from RMB to US dollars, it is definitely among the top three in Silicon Valley, let alone in Europe. It is definitely the first!
Bobby also knew this. Hearing this, he said: "Then there should be no problem. Anyway, the company has been acquired. Under the confidentiality clause, it will be troublesome for them to find a job. They are equivalent to working out for a few years.
, after a few years of hard work, you will be comfortable for a lifetime. Even your children and grandchildren are taken care of, so what’s wrong with it?”
After a pause, Bobby continued: "Let me tell you, Qi Shao, you can just give each person a signing bonus ranging from 100,000 to 500,000 euros, and I promise to get you more talents."
"Okay." Xiao Qi waved his hand grandly. "As long as it's a matter of money, everything is not a problem."
"Then what do you think of our acquisition of the sexy girl?" Bobby asked, taking advantage of every opportunity.
"6 billion, not a penny added!" Xiao Qi's reaction was quick enough.
"You are really stingy." Bobby sighed and shook his head.
"This is a matter of principle and cannot be changed." Xiao Qi reminded him with a smile: "I will return to China in a while. If you want to finalize it early, you'd better not delay."
"knew."
Bobby became serious: "We will give you a reply within three days at most!"
He also tested Xiao Qi's bottom line and would only offer a purchase price of US$6 billion.
It is undoubtedly a very funny thing for a super rich man like Xiao Qi to bargain with others for millions and tens of millions even after he absolutely refuses to speak out.
For Green Pine Capital, although it is not too satisfactory, if taken together, it is not impossible to trade.
At least in Bobby's mind, this price is barely acceptable. What he has to do now is to convince the other senior partners to get rid of the hot potato of the gay girl as soon as possible.
After leaving the restaurant, Bobby got in the car and quickly left back to the hotel.
Now with video conferencing technology, everyone can talk, chat and hold meetings together from all over the world. This is also a manifestation of the development of technology.
When he left, the relaxed expression on Xiao Qi's face disappeared.
Since this restaurant was not far from the villa and manor area, Xiao Qi did not take a car and chose to take a walk home so that he could think more.
Just now Bobby talked about a lot of the pros and cons of repurchasing pornographic girls.
But one thing Bobby was right about was that as long as Xiao Qi intervened and bought the stock of Cho Sex Girl, it meant that he would need to keep acquiring it until Cho Sex Girl returned to Tang Mingxiang's hands again.
That is to say, Green Pine Capital is at the end of its rope. Otherwise, if it were slightly delayed for a year and a half, Tang Mingxiang would definitely be unable to stabilize it.
However, even if Green Pine Capital's 25% stake is added, Xiao Qi only holds 45% of the shares of Cho Sex Girl, which is far from absolute control.
Xiao Qi's plan is not just as simple as absolute control, he wants to give 100% of the erotic girls to Tang Mingxiang as a gift to her and her children.
Therefore, the next step that Xiao Qi wants to discuss is the 10% held by Amazon and the 15% held by Blackstone Group.
Blackstone Group's 15% is a little better. Their experience is better than Green Pine Capital, but not much better, and they also know that the financial crisis is coming, and they are well aware of it.
Amazon is in a lot of trouble, because 10% of it was bought when it was valued at 25 billion. Now its market value is about 22 billion U.S. dollars, and it doesn't lose much. It loses more than 20 million a month, so it's not impossible.
accept.
But thanks to the subprime mortgage crisis and financial turmoil, Amazon will not be immune. The troubles they face are not small. At least in the two years of 2008 and 2009, they also experienced a plunge and pain.
If Xiao Qi chooses to buy it at a slightly higher price during this period, it shouldn't be a big problem.
If we can't negotiate 15% of Blackstone Group now, the next step is to have Citigroup and Green Pine Capital sign a contract to help hide it for a period of time. When the financial crisis breaks out in September, Blackstone Group and Amazon will be bought together.
Bayeux Venture Capital is the largest venture capital firm in Europe. If there is no opportunity now, we will have to wait until the European debt crisis breaks out next year to see if it can be acquired back.
As for the final Itochu Corporation, Xiao Qi really doesn’t have much confidence.
Because both Japanese and Chinese people have a custom, that is, they don’t like to take out the things they get. Even if the erotic girl is currently suffering from serious losses, it may not be easy to convince them, and even the entire repurchase process
Among them, the most troublesome one is probably Itochu Corporation.
Think about it, as a comprehensive trading company, Itochu Corporation does not have much weakness at all.
With Itochu Corporation's business scope and methods, it is not easy to make a fortune, but it is even more difficult to make them suffer bad luck.
However, Xiao Qi should be lucky that Itochu Corporation is a Japanese company, not a Chinese company.
Because Itochu Corporation is a Japanese company, and Japan produces almost no energy, almost all comprehensive trading companies in their country are involved in the energy industry. For example, Itochu Corporation has a large amount of business in oil, including oil exploration, refining,
Processing, etc., has been their top priority in the past 20 years.
Compared with China, which has an oil self-sufficiency rate of about 40%, Japan has no energy at all, so its oil reserves are usually terrifying. Under such storage requirements, major trading companies are not so sensitive to oil prices.
Yes, they all adopt a long-term buying futures model, and there is no such thing as spot trading.
I mentioned before that Japan Airlines is like this. It buys oil futures eight or nine months in advance. That is the most common thing.
Think about it, even Japan Airlines will lose more than 10 billion US dollars, so what will happen to Itochu Corporation, which has a larger purchase volume than him?
yes.
More than 50% of ITOCHU's oil is mined by itself and others in partnership. And they not only sell crude oil, but mostly sell refined products, and the profits are very generous.
This is the most important reason why Itochu Corporation did not collapse in the financial crisis that began in 2008!
If they only bought and sold crude oil, I'm afraid there would be no Itochu Corporation in the world.
but!
Don’t forget that oil extraction, refining and processing also require costs!
When Itochu Corporation obtains oil, it must also include the profits of the mining countries and cooperative companies. Its machinery starts refining, personnel salaries, warehousing and logistics, etc. all require considerable costs!
When oil and crude oil prices rise, these costs are nothing, but what about when oil prices plummet?
From 147 US dollars, it suddenly dropped to 45 US dollars a barrel in 6 months. Who can bear such a huge contrast?
Under such circumstances, it would be surprising if Itochu Corporation did not suffer a huge loss!
Therefore, it is the most appropriate time to wait until then to think of a solution! (To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!
