Li Jingwei rushed into Zhou Dawei's office angrily, and Zhou Dawei's secretary could not stop him.
"Mayor Zhou, Jianlibao is going to be sold. How come I don't know about this?" He was the one who came up with this idea, and now he is questioning someone else.
"Old Li, what are you talking about? Who wants to sell Jianlibao? It is a joint venture to attract foreign investors and expand Jianlibao's scale. Furthermore, Jianlibao needs money now, and you keep asking the City Government to solve this problem. Now, I have found a solution for you. "Zhou Dawei pulled Li Jingwei to the sofa.
"Joint venture? You should inform me if you want to go for a joint venture. Also, after the joint venture, will the foreign investors have the final say? What about me? I had contributed so much to Jianlibao, and what should I do? "Li Jingwei questioned.
"Old Li, who says after the joint venture, the foreign investors will have the final say in Jianlibao? We will still have the final say. You are still the General Manager of Jianlibao, and this will not change. "Zhou Dawei comforted Li Jingwei.
"Mayor Zhou, I think we do not need foreign investors. I will raise a sum of money from the management team, and you can sell some shares to us. I promise you will make Jianlibao better." Li Jingwei said.
But he knows the City Government will not agree to this.
Zhou Dawei asked. "Old Li, where did you get the money from? You want to repay in three years? This is not possible. You are using Jianlibao's funds to buy Jianlibao. How can the City agree? What's more, what kind of decisions did the four vice presidents you hired make? If they did not do something wrong, Jianlibao's capital chain will not have any problems. Didn't you say that Jianlibao's capital chain will be broken if there are no more funds? What will happen to our workers? "
"Mayor Zhou, do you think it's my fault that this happened? Last year, I had told the City not to take away so much funds. You are the one who insisted. If you get those funds back, won't Jianlibao be fine? "
Li Jingwei knew that the funds had all been allocated to the lower levels, and a lot of it had already been spent. Many units had spent too much last year. When they received the funds this year, they immediately filled the gap.
It was precisely because he knew that the city did not have the money that he dared to do this.
"Old Li, what do you mean? You're saying that I'm the one who caused Jianlibao to be in such a passive situation? How can you talk to me like that?! "Zhou Dawei said angrily.
After getting angry, Zhou Dawei turned to Li Jingwei and said, "Aren't you still the general manager of Jianlibao? Now that we have more funds, we can raise your salary."
Li Jingwei took a deep breath. This was why he wanted Jianlibao to leave the Sanshui government. A raise in salary? What I want are goddamn shares, shares!
"What does the city government plan to do?"
"Let them invest 30 million USD and give them 40% of the shares," Zhou Dawei said with satisfaction.
"No, we'll suffer a loss if we do that!"
"Huh? What loss? "Zhou Dawei asked.
"Our Jianlibao's fixed assets are worth more than 400 million USD. Although we have a lot of debt, we should still be worth 350 million USD. They are investing 40 million USD and giving them 40% shares. It might seem like we are making a profit, but in fact? Our Jianlibao's profits can be expected, and they will get back their investment in 3 to 4 years. How can this be? "
"Then what should we do?" Zhou Dawei asked. "Should we just sell them the shares? This sum of money will still be invested into Jianlibao Group. Also, the shares cannot be sold for a lot. If they want to move Jianlibao out of Sanshui, what should we do? "
"Mayor Zhou, I have an idea. We can use Jianlibao's shares to set up a new joint-venture company with them. This new joint-venture company can be set up elsewhere, but Jianlibao will still be in Sanshui. Also, we can get more funds this way, and Jianlibao will develop faster! "Li Jingwei purposely paused for a while and said.
"Use shares to set up a new joint-venture company? What do you mean? I don't understand. "Zhou Dawei was confused.
"We will use 90% of Jianlibao's shares to set up a joint venture and let them invest the same value as our shares. We will own 51% of the shares, and they own 49%. This way, we will get more than 300 million USD. I can also adjust the accounts slightly. For example, we can hide our debts to our distributors and workers. I am confident we can get 500 million USD to develop our company."
"How much? 500 million? How much? "Zhou Dawei's eyes brighten up.
"That's right. 500 million USD. This way, the company will have sufficient funds to develop, and the sales, profits, and taxes will reach new highs. The City will get a lot of profits from the shares, and the taxes will also increase. "Li Jingwei led Zhou Dawei's thoughts into his trap step by step.
"Old Li, you are helping the City. You are the hero of Sanshui." Zhou Dawei patted Li Jingwei's shoulder and praised him.
Hero of Sanshui? But how did you all treat me? Look at how other governments treat people who had made significant contributions to their companies?
"We will be the major shareholders of this new joint-venture company. I hope I will be the Chairman and General Manager." Li Jingwei purposely raised a condition.
"No problem. Other than you, no one else is qualified to be in this position! Old Li, the city did not misjudge you. You are indeed a very capable person. You can write a report on the details. I will report to Secretary Xu first. "
After leaving Zhou Dawei's office, Li Jingwei sighed. Just based on the attitude these people had towards him, he did not regret doing this!
… …
"Bosses, we have decided to use 90% of Jianlibao's shares to set up a joint venture company, Hua Xia Beverage Group. We will own 51% of the shares, and you will own 49%." Li Jingwei said on behalf of Jianlibao.
"Manager Li, how did you do the calculations? A few days ago, we invested 40 million USD to get 40% of the shares. Now, we are investing 500 million RMB. That's more than 60 million USD, and we are only getting 49%? "Fu Guangzheng purposely asked.
"It's because the City's leaders are not familiar with Jianlibao's assets and had made the wrong valuation. This is Jianlibao's assets valuation. Jianlibao is worth more than 500 million. "
Xu Sicheng and Zhou Dawei, who were at the side, were very satisfied. This was much more than they had expected. This Old Li was really capable.
"But why is it 90%? Based on your valuation, you all should also invest 100% of the shares. "Feng Yu tapped on the table and asked in English.
Xu Sicheng and Zhou Dawei listened to the translator and looked at Li Jingwei. How should we explain this?
"Because our Jianlibao brand is also worth a sum of money. Didn't you all consider the value of this? This is our bottom line. If you all don't agree, then there's no need for us to cooperate! "Li Jingwei said.
Xu Sicheng and Zhou Dawei were worried. Old Li was so stubborn. Will the talks break down? Didn't the other party had contacted Le Bashi? If Le Bashi's offer was better, what will happen to Jianlibao?
Fu Guangzheng looked at everyone and especially at Feng Yu. He saw Feng Yu picking up a glass of water and putting it down without taking a sip. He understood Feng Yu's decision.
"We need to consider before we can give you an answer."
"Of course. But you must be fast. Maybe in a few days, our Jianlibao's value will rise again." Li Jingwei said loudly.
Feng Yu had agreed in his heart, but he was only putting on an act. He still wants to enter the European and US markets with the United Nations' beverage companies!
