Chapter 156: Family
The Oppenheimer family also has nightclubs such as bars.
Cao Mo and Yang Deshan didn't go to the local night club in Draculamo before, mainly because they were worried about public security, but now they have Engesang and Brahm two local snakes leading the way, and they are going to play in the night club under their family, even if they are not interested in the local Yoruba girl, they have to go and see it.
Queen Victoria's Bar, located inside Victoria House in the Arlegon Island district.
As the commercial center of Draculamo, the salt-lake island area is full of high-rise buildings, even more modern than the second- and third-tier cities in China, but the group of people at the top of Draculamo who hold huge wealth is still too narrow, and it is still difficult to form large-scale luxury consumption.
The implementation of the Queen's Bar is good in Draculamo, but it is also equivalent to the domestic mid-range level, with energetic music, dim lighting, and rotating spotlights that flicker over the eyes from time to time.
In front of the bar, large and small booths are full of drinkers, and on the circular high platform in the center, a plump Yoruba girl, wearing a shiny bikini, is dancing sexyly, and the lights are gathered, but it has a unique style.
Cao Mo and the others found a corner and sat down.
Before, Engesang and Brahm's attention was on Shen Ji.
Even if Shen Ji made it clear that Cao Mo would represent Dongsheng and be fully responsible for the development of the hydropower station group in the upper reaches of the Lujiaochuan River, in the eyes of Engesang and Brahm, Cao Mo's status was limited, and his attitude towards him was relatively cold and alienated.
After leaving the casino, Engesang first had to thank Cao Mo for saving the scene, otherwise so many people would have to look at his embarrassment tonight, and when he arrived at the bar, he enthusiastically asked the bar manager to find two mixed-race girls to put Cao Mo in his arms and fulfill his promise in the casino.
In addition to the body odor and the high pathogenicity rate of Kanem, Cao Mo did not dare to act rashly, these two mixed-race girls are also beautiful.
Cao Mo used to be Abacha's "senior personal adviser", even when he came into contact with Blake, Leclezio and others, he was very low-key.
At this time, in order to enhance the voice of the three families, he sat down at the Queen Victoria Bar, and Abacha introduced the construction and development of the Ibogu gold mine, cement factory, hydropower station and industrial park, all thanks to Cao Mo's advice and participation, Cao Mo also has a certain interest in these industries.
Cao Mo didn't want to attract the attention of the Jidam family and Taihua at this time, at least for now, he still wanted to convince Huang Hebin, Lu Yan, Yan Zhicheng and others that it was for the interests of Dongsheng that they decided to resist Taihua leading the Chinese Business Association, so he almost introduced the information that Xie Sipeng knew to Engasant, Brahm and Leclezio.
In short, in addition to holding an "important position" in Dongsheng, his personal assets are also "reluctantly" able to play a game of 500,000 US dollars with Lu Yan.
Cao Mo didn't treat Engesan, Brahm, and Leclezio as outsiders, and helped them come up with ideas familiarly:
"We Dongsheng have built a large-scale hydropower station complex in the upper reaches of the Lujiaochuan River, which is destined to have great prospects for the future development of Sika Idet Power Grid Company - you all
Why don't people want to take a stake in Sika Idet Power Grid?"
At present, the Blake, Oppenheimer and Rupert families each hold 20% of the shares in Sika Aidet Power Grid Company, and others do not want to be able to buy these shares or part of them at a low price, but Engasant, Brahm, and Leclezio want to hold personal shares, which is only a matter of asset distribution within the three families.
The three of them are also directors of Sika Idet Power Grid Company, and they want to participate more actively in the operation of the power grid company, and it is definitely not an excessive thing to personally contribute or give up the inheritance and distribution rights of other family assets, and to invest in obtaining a part of the equity of Sika Idet Power Grid Company from within the family.
Many families are even willing to carry out such asset distribution, so that their children can participate more actively in the management of family assets.
Cao Mo was so flamboyant today, but it wasn't for the sake of feeling good in his heart to slap Lu Yan's face again.
In addition to saving Engesang today, the more important thing is to change his impression and status in their minds in a shocking way.
In the final analysis, family is still a relatively abstract concept, and it is necessary to form a closer relationship with a family or to deal with specific people in the family.
At this time, Cao Mo suggested that the three of them directly hold shares in Sika Idet Power Grid Company, and if there are any good projects in the Conero Lake Industrial Park in the future, Rabram, Engasant, and Leclezio will also participate, on the one hand, it is hoped that they can more actively participate in the operation and development of the power grid company, and they will naturally be more active in their respective families, speaking out for the power grid company, for Ibogu, and for Conero Lake Industrial Park.
On the other hand, the real development of the power grid company, with individual shareholdings, their status and voice in their respective families will be enhanced, and they have established close relations with Engasant, Brahm, and Le Clézio, and they will naturally be more able to exert stronger and greater influence on the three families from many aspects and levels.
Of course, this time, under the guise of Dongsheng Group's investment of 50 million US dollars in upstream hydropower stations, the exchange conditions to be negotiated with the three major families were also mentioned by Cao Mo to Engasang, Brahm, and Leclezio in Queen Victoria's Bar.
Asking the three major families to support Ojosan's candidacy for the U.S. House of Representatives is inevitable, and it can't even be considered an excessive condition.
After all, the three major families still have to continue to expand their political influence, and if they don't support their allies, who else will they support?
In addition to this, the core is Sika Idet Power Grid Company, which can take out part of the profits in the future and participate in the infrastructure construction of the Lonta area.
This infrastructure is not completely unrelated to Sika Idet Power Grid.
On the one hand, there are two demands put forward by Abacha on behalf of the Lunta area and the Lunta Municipal Council, hoping that Sika Idet Power Grid Company can further expand the coverage of the power grid in Lunta.
This itself is the responsibility of Sika Adet Power Grid Company, and it is not in a hurry to directly convert most of the revenue into profit dividends, and the income is in their own pockets, and it is necessary to further clarify the proportion of new construction funds in revenue.
In addition to the established profit tax, the Lonta Municipal Council will also levy a social security surcharge and other taxes on Sika Idet Power Grid to increase it
Local fiscal revenues.
On the other hand, it is nominally Dongsheng's request, that is, it hopes that Sika Idet Power Grid will allocate a certain percentage of its profits to upgrade the Lunta-Draculamo road in the next three to five years.
It is also natural to make such a request in the name of Dongsheng.
At present, the palm oil production base of Dongsheng Branch is located on the south side of the Lonta-Draculamo highway, the oil palm plantations acquired in Lonta are mainly located on both sides of the Lonta-Draculamo highway, the hydropower plant complex to be built on a large scale is located on the north side of the Lonta-Draculamo highway, and the leading investment in the Lake Conero Industrial Park and the planned investment and construction of the third phase of the roughing and refining plant in the industrial park are located on the west side of the Lonta-Draculamo highway.
Dongsheng's investment in the upstream hydropower station group, since it can directly stimulate Sika Idet Power Grid Company to enjoy a large number of new profits, of course, it can confidently put forward some conditions that are beneficial to them.
Of course, Sika Adet Power Grid's main transmission grid is also mainly distributed along the Lunta-Draculamo road, and the previous construction and subsequent maintenance of the line have taken advantage of this simple highway, and cannot but be held responsible.
Cao Mo even made it clearer that the profits distributed by Sika Idet Power Grid in the next five years will be based on 500,000 US dollars, 1 million US dollars, 2 million US dollars, 4 million US dollars, and 8 million US dollars, and the excess profits will be used for the construction of basic power grids and road infrastructure.
As a condition of the VAM, Dongsheng and the Felician family power company raised funds through various means to develop a hydropower plant group upstream, and after five years, they sold no less than 300 million kilowatt-hours of electricity to Sika Idet Power Grid Company every year.
Even if Dongsheng can only sign an agreement of intent at present, the Felician family power company can directly sign this VAM agreement.
"The hydropower station group plus the transmission grid to supply power to Draculamo was suggested by me and Mr. Abacha and Mr. Ojosan, but now the potential is far from being tapped," Cao Mo said, "I also feel that the Oppenheimer and Rupert families do not particularly care about this piece of assets, I think Engesang and Brahm also have a considerable position in the family, if you can get 5-10% of the personal shares from their respective families, and work with us to thoroughly tap the potential, it is also absolutely beneficial to you personally!"
Le Clézio currently has a lot of personal assets and considerable investment income, but Engassan and Brahm are still mainly dependent on the family's support, and have not yet been able to become independent.
The two of them are well-educated and understand the significance of the VAM agreement, and secretly calculate that they can really directly hold 5-10% of the shares of Sika Aidet Power Grid Company, which means that their personal dividend income from the power grid company will be at least 500,000 to 1 million US dollars per year in the fifth year.
"Mr. Cao is a very capable person, and when he suggested that I invest in a cement plant with Ojosan, I was also skeptical, but fortunately, I finally trusted Mr. Cao, and then we will have a larger-scale cement plant, which will be built in the Conero Lake Industrial Park soon," Abacha wasted no time in helping Cao Mo, "As a friend, I think you should seize this opportunity......
