In Apollo's car, the two of them arrived at an Italian steakhouse.
Previously, Apollo had already booked the entire restaurant, so when the two of them arrived, there was no one inside.
They chose a table by the window and ordered a medium-rare steak and a cup of coffee.
Xiao Yunhai ordered ten medium-rare steaks and a bottle of red wine. It would be a waste not to eat since it was not his treat.
Apollo seemed to know that Xiao Yunhai was a big eater, so he smiled and passed the menu to the waiter.
"Mr. Xiao, I've asked someone to conduct a detailed investigation on all of your businesses. I realized that you seem to have a sense of crisis. Almost all the company shares are in your hands. This is not good for a company's development. Have you ever thought of selling a part of it? "Apollo asked with a smile.
Xiao Yunhai narrowed his eyes and said, "Mr. Apollo, which of my companies do you have in mind?"
Apollo shook his head and smiled bitterly. "What if I say that I have in mind all of them?"
Xiao Yunhai was instantly happy and said, "That would be my honor. Actually, I've been thinking about this problem. In the past, it was because I didn't have the ability, so I had to hold on tightly to the company's shares to prevent nonsense like being bought out. Now, it's because I can't bear to part with them. Take Yun Qing Network for example. Its potential is far from its maximum. Then there's Yun Qing Oil and Gas Company. With the Arab world and Russia restricting exports, the price of oil will only get higher. Tell me, if I get financing now, won't I suffer a huge loss? "
Apollo said, "That's true, but it also depends on whether it's worth it. Mr. Xiao, I have high hopes for your Yun Qing Network and would like to buy some shares. "
Now, Xiao Yunhai's Yun Qing Network had completely surpassed Steyr Networks due to the global popularity of its Twitter and Yun Qing client. Its market value had reached a terrifying 2.5 trillion USD. What was more frightening was that its potential had not been fully realized.
Christy had once done a market research for Xiao Yunhai. She believed that it would only take a year for Yun Qing Network's market value to increase by at least 60%, exceeding 4 trillion USD.
It wasn't just Apollo. Businessmen all over the world wanted to buy its shares, but Xiao Yunhai didn't give them a chance.
"Mr. Apollo, you know that I'm not short of money. I don't need any financing." Xiao Yunhai rejected without even thinking about it.
Apollo said, "Mr. Xiao, my main interest in Yun Qing Network is that it can provide me with a strong cash flow. As long as you can sell me 20% of the shares according to the market price, I can help you with the security company. “
If Apollo had proposed such a condition before, Xiao Yunhai might have agreed to it.
But now that he had Stanley Simon's help, there was no need for him to pay such a high price to beg Apollo.
However, the Anderson Family also had something that Xiao Yunhai needed, which was firearms.
The Anderson Firearms Company, the International Aerospace Company, and the Cool Internet Search Engine were the three core businesses of the Anderson Family.
The Cool Internet Search Engine was similar to Google in his previous life. No other search engine could compare to it.
Needless to say, the firearms company was the masterpiece of America's most famous Sidewinder missile. From small bullets to large aircraft carriers, there was no problem in manufacturing them. Its market value was a terrifying 23 trillion USD. It was even more than the Bessie Family.
The International Aerospace Company was independent from the firearms company ten years ago. It was able to manufacture civilian airplanes, bombers, fighter jets, satellites, rockets, and so on. It was easy to imagine its status in the American military.
In other industries, the Anderson Family might not be as good as the Bessie Family, but in the military industry, they were far superior.
This was also the reason why the Anderson Family was still standing strong.
Xiao Yunhai said, "Mr. Apollo, I've completely lost interest in the security company, but I have high hopes for your firearms company."
Apollo's expression changed. He said, "Mr. Xiao, your appetite is too big. The Anderson Family will never sell even one percent of the shares in the firearms company. That's our core business. No one can touch it. "
Xiao Yunhai shrugged and smiled. "Don't be so nervous. If it's no good, then it's no good. Just like you, Yunqing Internet Company is also my core business. It hasn't been developed yet, so I won't sell it either. "
At this point, Apollo had reached a dead end. There was no trace of a smile on his face.
At this time, the waiter served the two of them their orders.
Xiao Yunhai picked up the red wine and said, "There's a saying in Hua Xia that goes, 'Even if a deal doesn't work out, there's still justice.' Mr. Apollo, you won't be angry because of this, right? "
Apollo took a sip of the coffee and smiled, "I'm not that stingy to that extent. Mr. Xiao, I want to know why you want to invest in our firearms company. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Of course it's to build my own army. I offered 20 billion USD to buy Terrence's life on the black market, but no terrorist organization dared to take it. Why? It's because the Bessie family has three mercenary corps backing them up. I don't want to be threatened or attacked again, so I need firearms to arm my people. "
Apollo narrowed his eyes and said, "If that's the case, then you don't have to buy shares in our firearms company. As long as you have the money, we can make you any kind of weapon you want. Tanks and missiles are all fine. "
Xiao Yunhai asked, "What's the price?"
Apollo thought for a while and said, "If you can sell me 20% of Yunqing Internet Company's shares, I'll give you a 30% discount on any firearms you need."
The Anderson family had many weapons factories in Africa. He wasn't bragging when he said that.
Xiao Yunhai smiled. "I'll remember this. However, this isn't a small matter. I need to go back and discuss it with my economic team. You know I don't know much about these things. "
Apollo said, "I hope Mr. Xiao can bring me good news."
At this point, Xiao Yunhai and Apollo stopped talking about business.
Half an hour later, Xiao Yunhai returned to the hotel.
Looking for Christy, Xiao Yunhai told her about Stanley Simon helping to set up the security company.
Christy said happily, "That's great. Mr. Simon's influence in the United States was very big. He had never failed to do what he promised. Using 10 billion USD a year to get involved with him, this deal is definitely worth it. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I didn't ask you to come here for this. I want to talk to you about Yunqing Internet Company. Apollo wants to buy 20% of the shares. What do you think? "
Christy frowned and said, "Mr. Xiao, Yunqing Internet Company is developing rapidly. It will take another year to reach its peak. I don't think it's a good idea to sell the shares now. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "I know what you mean, but I have to agree to it. Firearms, I want to buy firearms from them to arm the Dragon's War mercenaries in Africa. "
Christy knew that ever since Xiao Yunhai was attacked, he had developed a great interest in armed forces. This was not a bad thing.
When the business was big, it had to have the power to protect it. Otherwise, it would only end up benefiting others.
"Mr. Xiao, what price is he offering?" Christy asked after some consideration.
Xiao Yunhai said, "We haven't discussed it yet. But he promised to provide me with missiles, tanks, and other military equipment. It's 30% cheaper than the market price. How much do you think 20% of the shares can be sold for? "
Christy thought for a while and said, "Yunqing Internet Company's value is immeasurable. A year later, the market value of 4 trillion is the most conservative estimate. Apollo wants 20% of the shares. I think it's just a sky-high price. We can pay him back. Let him sell us weapons, but only 10% of the shares. I believe he will agree. As for the price, it's 500 billion USD. We don't want cash for this money. We'll let him pay with weapons and equipment. What do you think? "
Xiao Yunhai's eyes lit up. He gave Christy a thumbs up and said, "Amazing. Let's do that. Apollo will definitely call me tomorrow. I'll talk to him then. "
Christy asked, "Mr. Xiao, when are you going to Los Angeles?"
Xiao Yunhai's main purpose in coming to Merrica was for the screening of Celestial Bane. He said, "It's done.
After Apollo's matter, we'll return immediately. But I need to make a trip to New York first to check on our company. "
Christy nodded and said, "Okay."
