Zhao Cheng's brain was working fast, thinking of what other advantages he has that can convince Feng Yu.
Many partnerships between companies are based on one condition. Even if there are more than a dozen good conditions, it is still not as good as this one condition.
Zhao Cheng originally wanted Hua Xia Aluminum to cooperate with Rito Group. Hua Xia's market and channels are his biggest capital, and capital is secondary. Which big company doesn't want to enter Hua Xia's market?
But these are not attractive to Feng Yu. Hua Xia can stop foreign companies, but can it stop its own people? Feng Yu's status is much higher than him, the CEO of a state-owned enterprise.
Zhao Cheng suddenly remembered what Feng Yu said. Feng Yu wants to acquire Rito Group, and Hua Xia Aluminum happens to be the largest shareholder of Rito Group. He is also a member of the board of directors.
Zhao Cheng raised his head. "Chairman Feng, what if I sell Hua Xia Aluminum's shares to you first?"
Feng Yu laughed. Zhao Cheng finally understood what was going on. That's right, this is what Feng Yu wants.
If he acquires the shares of other shareholders, and Hua Xia Aluminum doesn't sell its shares, Feng Yu might not mind, but Kirilenko might have some ideas.
Acquiring the shares and then establishing a joint venture is beneficial to both parties. Kirilenko will not object. This is completely different from holding the shares directly.
Zhao Cheng is not worried that Feng Yu will lie to him. Feng Yu still cherishes his reputation, and it is not worth it to cheat his own people for money.
"Chairman Zhao, this is a good condition, but it is not enough."
Not enough? Zhao Cheng was stunned this time. This is the best condition he can think of. What other conditions can move Feng Yu?
Could it be that he will make concessions on the joint venture? He doesn't dare to agree to this.
According to the requirements of Hua Xia's superiors, joint ventures were allowed. However, foreign parties were not allowed to be the controlling shareholders of some important industries.
This aluminum industry is also an important industry. Although Feng Yu owns shares in the Polar Bear Mining Group, the Polar Bear Mining Group is a subsidiary of the Polar Bear Group. Feng Yu owns shares indirectly through the Wind and Rain Holdings Group. The Wind and Rain Holdings Group is also registered overseas.
Therefore, the minimum requirement was for Hua Xia Aluminum to hold 50% of the shares. Both parties couldn't make decisions on their own. Everything had to be discussed. Since the joint venture was registered in Hua Xia, then Hua Xia Aluminum had the home advantage.
If Feng Yu asked for concessions, even if it was just 1%, Zhao Cheng would not agree. Even if he agreed, the higher-ups would ask him to stop, and then he would have to move his butt.
Even if the cooperation didn't work out, he would at most be affected by his promotion. But if he made a stupid request, he would at least be demoted and might even be charged with malfeasance. He wasn't stupid. Why would he make such a stupid decision?
"Chairman Feng, what other conditions do you have? Just say it." Zhao Cheng doesn't want to continue guessing. In such a short time, he doesn't even have anyone to discuss with. How can he be so accurate?
If Feng Yu agreed to some other conditions, wouldn't Hua Xia Aluminum suffer a loss?
"I need your help on the board of directors of Li Tinto Group. Persuade more directors to facilitate our acquisition."
Zhao Cheng frowned. Why? Is Feng Yu not confident in this acquisition?
Rumor has it that Feng Yu is very rich, and he even teamed up with the world's second richest man. Do they not have enough funds? Or could it be that they don't want to spend too much money and want to acquire at a good price?
Of course, Zhao Cheng also knows that BHP Billiton wants to acquire Li Tinto Group. One party had already made an offer, and if Feng Yu's conditions are too low, how can Li Tinto Group agree?
Although Hua Xia Aluminum is the largest shareholder, it only accounts for 9% of the shares and only has one seat on the board. It still has some influence, but not much.
"Chairman Feng, what are your conditions for acquiring Li Tinto Group? How much are you willing to pay?"
Because Li Tinto Group is listed on three different markets, it cannot be measured by the share price of one market. But the board of directors also have an estimate of the true value of Li Tinto Group. As long as Feng Yu can offer a higher price, then there will be room for negotiation.
But the premise is that it is not a leveraged buyout. If that is the case, Li Tinto Group would have merged with BHP Billiton a long time ago.
"I cannot give you an answer for the time being. My people are still evaluating the true value of Li Tinto Group. We can only make a decision after the results are out. This time, we also intend to hire a middleman, the Rothschild family. "
It's them?
Zhao Cheng is quite familiar with the Rothschild family because Hua Xia Aluminum invested in Li Tinto Group through the Rothschild family. At that time, the Rothschild family also gave them a lot of commissions.
It can be said that the Rothschild family is deeply rooted in Europe and is now expanding into Asia. The Rothschild family has a lot of mergers and acquisitions, and they have a high reputation.
If Feng Yu also hired the Rothschild family, then the chances of this acquisition will be very high. The Rothschild family will never accept a deal that they are not confident in.
The higher the success rate, the more companies will approach the Rothschild family, and the higher the commission. If the success rate is low, who will want to approach you?
It's just like a fund company. Not only do they need to look at the overall return, but they also need to look at the profit and loss ratio of the contracts. If the overall return of a company is 20% and is considered to be ahead of the industry, but only half of the contracts are profitable, then most people will not dare to invest in the company. Who knows if the company will make a profit or lose money?
Everyone invests because they want to make money. Even if the profits are low, it's better than making a loss.
Feng Yu also told the Rothschild family that if the deal goes through, he can accept the higher commission. But if the deal goes through, he will not get a single cent of the commission. The Rothschild family is still considering and did not give Feng Yu an answer. But Feng Yu thinks the other party will agree and is only considering how much to charge.
"Chairman Feng, if you have already hired the Rothschild family, then I am very confident in your acquisition of Li Tinto Group. Don't worry, I will cooperate with the Rothschild family and try my best to persuade more directors to agree to sell the company to you. "
"Then if the acquisition is successful, will you agree to cooperate with us, Hua Xia Aluminum, to set up a joint venture? Both parties will hold half of the shares, and we will discuss the details."
Feng Yu said solemnly, "If I successfully acquire Li Tinto Group, setting up a joint venture will not be a problem, and I will not let Hua Xia Aluminum suffer any losses. Both parties will send half of the executives of the joint venture. You will be the chairman, and we will appoint the CEO. Is this enough? "
I will be the chairman? Zhao Cheng was overjoyed. This promise is more than enough!
Feng Yu's meaning is clear. Help me first, then I will help you. If you don't take advantage of me, I will not let you suffer any losses.
