The tree wants to be still but the wind doesn't stop.
Having earned a large amount of US dollars, Xiao Qi was originally ready to spend the fat year comfortably, but someone still came to his door impatiently.
Xiao Qi couldn't refuse because it was Wen Anping's relationship.
An old friend of Wen Anping is the deputy secretary of Jinwei City. This time, he specially asked his connections to come over and said that Zhang Liangyao, the vice president of Temasek in Singapore, wanted to visit Xiao Qi and hoped that we could take the time to meet and talk.
Wen Anping didn't know that Xiao Qi had always hated people in Singapore, and he couldn't resist the favor, so he naturally called Xiao Qi.
Of course Xiao Qi is not that stupid. As a business person, even if you hate a country or a person, you should not show it too openly, otherwise you will not be able to have fun in the business world.
For example, Xiao Qi hates Germany's hatred of China, but he will not say it out loud. He will only set Germany's price to be one of the highest in the world.
Then the excuse I came up with was also borrowed from Gang Leader Qiao - Who told you that the tax rate in Germany is so high?
It’s not just Germany, it’s also all countries and regions that Xiao Qi sets high prices, such as Japan, the United Kingdom, and Singapore... As for Indonesia, Xiao Qi only gave a few dealer qualifications, and he will never open a direct store.
.
In fact, the United States is not a good thing, but now Xiao Qi's power to fight against the United States is simply a fantasy. Moreover, most of Xiao Qi's career is in the United States, so for the time being, he can only establish a good relationship with the United States and wait until he is strong enough - even if
He was a man of great talent and strategy like Taizu, and he knew what it meant to hold back even in the early days of his founding. Xiao Qi's grievances were nothing.
Compared to Germany, Xiao Qi actually dislikes Singapore. Although 97% of this country is Chinese, the group of people in power tend to favor the European and American powers. They have greatly obstructed China's energy strategy in the Strait of Malacca.
.
Of course, you can also say that this is because China is now weaker than the powerful European and American countries. If China defeats the United States, then Singapore will definitely lean closer to China. After all, their country's founding strategy is to lean towards powerful countries. This strategy
For a small country like theirs, there is nothing wrong with that.
But for Xiao Qi, he always felt uncomfortable.
However, Xiao Qi would not directly talk about this matter to Wen Anping, but just agreed in an ordinary way.
This is not the first time that Temasek has approached Xiao Qi to discuss cooperation, but Xiao Qi has never agreed once before. He would not even send someone at the vice president level and refused directly.
What kind of group is Temasek?
That is a complex equivalent to China's three major communication operators, five major commercial banks, Four Barrels Oil, China Railway, Chinalco... and so on. Half of the market value of the Singapore stock market is related to them. An absolute behemoth!
They said to the outside world that their assets were only 42 billion US dollars, but Xiao Qi knew that adding a zero after this amount of money would not necessarily overestimate them.
Although I don't like Singapore, Singapore has extremely strong strength in many aspects, and Xiao Qi understands that.
Therefore, he doesn't like Singapore. He doesn't like Temasek, but he will never ignore or despise them.
For example, they hold 7% of the Hong Kong shares of China Construction Bank, nearly 14% of the shares of China Banking Corporation, 53% of the shares of Industrial and Commercial Bank of China, and 10% of the shares of China Minsheng Bank... Can such shares be obtained?
Only money can solve it.
It was the same this time. The person they were looking for was from Jinwei. Singapore has two industrial parks in China, one in Suzhou and the other in Jinwei.
The last few times people from Gusu came to talk about Xiang, Xiao Qi ignored them, but this time they found someone more suitable to come over. It could only be a meeting.
Singapore actually has the same family system as China. Its actual controller is the son of the founder of the Lee family. The giant Temasek is his daughter-in-law. One controls the government, the other controls the money bag, and the third father is behind the scenes.
Being in control of everything is a perfect combination.
All right.
Ignore these slightly complaining words.
Xiao Qi met with one of Temasek's five global vice presidents who came from Hong Kong in the small conference room of the president's office area on the eighth floor of Fairy Company on the afternoon of the second day after Dreamsnow was launched, which was the Chinese New Year's Eve.
One Wu Zhunju.
Before he came, Xiao Qi had asked the beautiful secretaries in the Chairman's Secretariat to check the identity of Wu Zhunju.
Wu Zhunju, 48 years old, is the fourth son of Singapore’s second CEO. Unlike his brothers who have devoted themselves to official careers, Wu Zhunju has been working hard at Temasek since graduating from business school, working his way from the position of branch manager to
Today's global vice president, he spent 24 years.
Although the CEO’s wife is the real person in charge, Wu Zhunju’s talents are not bad at all. Under his operation, Temasek has strengthened its investment and foundation in Asia in recent years, and its assets and influence have been growing rapidly.
rise.
As soon as Dreampad was launched, Temasek made a request to Fairy Company to acquire shares. Although Xiao Qi refused without thinking, it also reflected Wu Zhunju's vision.
For example, this time, after a few words of greeting, Wu Zhunju sighed: "Mr. Xiao, I think if there were enough opportunities, we should have become partners after the dreampad is released! If that were the case,
Temasek will be able to share the benefits brought by Fairy Company’s growth!”
Xiao Qi smiled and shook his head, "If I said that I knew what I was going to do from the beginning, and that Fairy Company would have the scale and glory it has today, would Mr. Wu believe it?"
Wu Zhunju nodded seriously, "Although you rejected our capital injection for Fairy Company at first, but then one giant after another was rejected, we knew that you really have this idea and confidence, and you have
The confidence and strength to realize your dreams.”
"So what are you doing here today?" Xiao Qi said with a smile.
"I feel that now, Fairy Company's meteoric rise is unstoppable. Nokia and Motorola have already set the sun. In the future, Fairy Company can only dominate the smart electronics market." Wu Zhunju said that you have sold a certain amount of shares,
So we at Temasek want to see if there is any opportunity for us to sell shares on Dreamsnow."
When he said this, Wu Zhunju felt bitter and sighed in his heart.
It’s bitter that a world giant like Temasek can only buy shares in a certain product of Fairy Company.
I lamented that Fairy Company is really good at doing business. At first, everyone only wanted to acquire shares of Fairy Company, but they did not expect that Fairy Company dared to sell each product brand separately, and there were countless people chasing after it. Xiao Qi
It’s really awesome!
"I'm sorry, I have no intention of doing business with Temasek." Xiao Qi replied straightforwardly.
Wu Zhunju was stunned, and Xiao Qi didn’t even say that he had no plans to sell Dreamsnow shares recently, but directly said that he would not do business with Temasek.
A wave of anger immediately welled up in my heart.
Temasek is an undisputed giant all over the world. When did Wu Zhunju suffer such contempt?
Xiao Qi looked at his angry expression and said calmly: "Mr. Wu, don't get me wrong. It's not that I look down on Temasek, but I don't think there is a need for such cooperation."
After hearing what Xiao Qi said, Wu Zhunju's anger dissipated a little: "Huh? Mr. Xiao, please explain something more clearly."
"It's very simple. Fairy Company is a Chinese company. It's not easy to develop in the world. You have to pay something and get help from giants in order to continue to develop." Xiao Qidao: "Otherwise, according to my character
, even a penny of the shares will not be sold! No one can do it."
Wu Zhunju's mind was spinning rapidly, but he immediately asked another question: "Is our Temasek not strong enough?"
"It's not enough, but it's not your economic strength, it's your influence in the global business and political circles." Xiao Qidao: "Singapore is rich, but do you have the power to influence the decisions of the United States? Do you have the power to influence the EU's commercial policies?
?”
"This..." Wu Zhunju was speechless for a moment. Singapore is at most influential around the Strait of Malacca. How can it compare to the United States and the European Union?
"I don't value money at all. What I value is the strong influence of Apple, Bayeux Ventures, lvmh, and Green Pine Capital in the political and business circles, so I give them an advantage." Xiao Qi said seriously.
"What about Samsung?" Wu Zhunju also thought of a counterattack: "Samsung is a Korean company, and they have no influence in Europe and the United States! But they got the most precious app store shares!"
"Because Samsung has the national support of South Korea, they own the entire mobile phone and even the hardware industry chain of smartphones. They can produce any component of the mobile phone themselves." Xiao Qidao, "Such an electronics company will definitely be the future.
It can soar into the sky, and their strong influence, Apple's American heritage and the strength of Fairy Company will further promote the development of the app store. If there is such a company in Singapore, I would also like you to invest in it."
Wu Zhunju's face turned ugly.
But this time it was not a complaint against Xiao Qi, but a lament about the small strength and influence of his country.
What Xiao Qi said was very realistic and very impersonal, but it was actually in line with the development interests of the Fairy Company. Based on the conditions Xiao Qi mentioned, Singapore was indeed not qualified to join.
I really didn't expect that Xiao Qi had such a clear purpose from the beginning, and unswervingly chose partners towards this goal, without any deviation for money.
Such a young man is indeed worthy of being hailed as "the most talented boy in the world"!! (To be continued...) r1292
