Chapter 265: The Inflated Boss Shen
The meeting with the leader was very simple, the leader mainly asked Shen Hui some views on the global financial market, Xinghai's development ideas and plans, and then encouraged him a few words, and it was over in less than twenty minutes.
In the afternoon, Shen Hui met the person Li Guangming had found for him at the Beijing Hotel.
The team of more than 20 people, some of whom are proficient in international relations and business negotiations, and some who are proficient in international law and have a deep study of Japan's economic policy, are quite luxurious, and several of them have even studied in Japan and have some connections in Japan.
Overseas investment is not a simple matter, whether it is the Japanese government's vigilant attitude towards foreign investment, or the protection policy of local enterprises, it has caused great difficulties for Chinese enterprises to merge and acquire activities in Japan.
The most important thing is that you can't get the key technology yet, just like a PC giant who wants to merge and acquire.
It's equivalent to spending money to buy an empty shell, except for the trademark that is worth a little money, and the rest is a pile of useless garbage.
Don't look at what Shen Hui said before, it's quite simple, if you really want to acquire a Japanese company, it is quite difficult.
After listening to the expert team talk about the difficulties faced by some mergers and acquisitions of Japanese companies, Shen Hui frowned even more.
But if you want to do something, it's not a little difficult, and he can't look down on things that can be done easily.
The next day, Shen Hui flew from the capital to Tokyo.
Boarding Boss Shen's car, whether it was the expert team or the security personnel who got on a private jet for the first time, they all felt that their eyes were a little insufficient, this was like an airplane, it was a mansion in the air at all.
It's so extravagant.
It's so rich.
A group of people didn't know how to describe it, only envy and admiration remained.
Especially a group of experts, I have seen a lot of extravagance from local tyrants, but it is the first time I have seen such extravagance.
Buying a Gulfstream business jet is already luxurious enough, this is a Boeing 747-8, not to mention that the price is several times more expensive than the Gulfstream business jet, just the flight cost of this big guy can make countless local tyrants daunted.
is not those top tyrants on the Forbes list, who can afford to raise this big guy.
And even if it is a local tyrant on the Forbes list, it is estimated that those who can afford this big guy are only the ones at the top.
There is plenty of space on the lower level, as well as lounges and relaxation rooms, where experts and security personnel are located.
Shen Hui enjoyed all the space on the upper floor alone, and not long after the plane took off, Gu Qingqing came up.
"Sir, there is something I would like to ask for your opinion on. ”
Gu Qingqing's tone was soft, which made people feel numb all over their bodies when they heard it.
Shen Hui said, "What's the matter?"
Gu Qingqing said: "I want to divide the flight attendants into three shifts, you see ......"
Shen Hui nodded: "Yes, you can just take the idea of these things, you don't need to ask me again, not only the flight attendants, but also the other crew members can rest in shifts, I also ordered a business jet to return to the Gulfstream, and you will deploy the flight task at that time." ”
"Okay!"
Gu Qingqing breathed a sigh of relief, the start was still very good, and the result of the first request for instructions was not bad.
I didn't dare to disturb the boss's rest, so I hurriedly retreated when I saw that there was nothing to do.
I was very surprised in my heart, just this big plane is amazing enough, I didn't expect to buy three more, our boss is really rich, it's a bit unusual, those local tyrants in China are compared with the boss, it's just weak.
Shen Hui sat in front of the porthole, frowning and looking at the white clouds outside the window.
This visit to Japan is considered an official business visit, and before that, Xinghai Investment Office has submitted a business visit letter to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan through the embassy, and communicated with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry of Japan to agree on the scope of the business visit.
When the plane arrived in Tokyo, Vice Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Akinan Nakamura personally came to pick up the plane.
In addition to officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there are also many representatives of Japanese businessmen, among whom the Mitsubishi chaebol is the most numerous, not only Mitsubishi Bank CEO Yoshida Shoichi, but also Mitsubishi Corporation Vice President Iwasaki Uezawa.
Chen Lijun, Yang Shan, Feng Meiqi, Zhang Xin and others, who rushed to Tokyo in advance, also came.
At first glance, it's a bit yin and yang.
Shen Hui also saw Nanako standing behind Takeo Takeo at the back of the crowd.
The little girl's face was full of adoration, which made him swell a little.
After some politeness, dozens of people got into the car, and a convoy of no less than 20 cars went straight to the Foreign Affairs Hotel.
This kind of interview is very sloppy, everything has to be explained rules and procedures, who to discuss with and what to talk about is basically predetermined, and people who should not be met cannot be casually seen, and things that should not be said cannot be said casually.
After sending the people from the embassy away, Shen Hui listened to Zhang Xin's report on the itinerary.
Zhang Xin held a notebook and read it one by one, but Shen Hui didn't remember a few after listening to it.
After Zhang Xin finished his report, he asked Takeda Xiong: "What is the attitude of the Japanese official towards us?"
Takeda Xiong thought about it seriously before he replied cautiously: "Affected by the epidemic this year, Japan's export trade has shrunk sharply, and many companies are not having a good time, and the government still welcomes Xinghai to invest, but Japan's laws have great restrictions on foreign mergers and acquisitions of local enterprises, and the government has a strong sense of protection for some enterprises with technical content, and usually supports the mergers and acquisitions of domestic enterprises, and rarely allows foreign capital to merge and acquire, unless it is an asset that the government thinks has little value." ”
Shen Hui frowned, this statement was inseparable from the analysis of the expert team.
If the Japanese government has such an attitude, then there is something to talk about.
Shen Hui is not interested in those worthless garbage, it is impossible to spend money to buy a bunch of garbage that has no technical content and is ready to be thrown away, and those who do business buy a bunch of garbage and maybe pick out something that can be used, but what does he want to do with that garbage when he plays finance, and he also came abroad to collect garbage, and his brain is in water to do that kind of stupid thing.
But whether it can be done or not will be known until we talk.
Shen Hui is not in a hurry, this is not to spend money to buy a few catties of pork and a few steamed buns, just ask the price to buy it, the bigger the business transaction process, the more complicated the negotiation process, especially this kind of cross-border acquisition, the issues involved are more complicated.
In the evening, Shen Hui attended a welcome dinner organized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The next day, Chen Lijun, Yang Shan, Feng Meiqi and other Xinghai management took the experts of the expert group to start preliminary contacts and talks with the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Shen Hui went to visit several senior officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
This kind of visit is all contact on the scene, and what is said is all empty words, and there will be no substantive content.
And the real negotiation is all in the following contacts.
As a big man, it is impossible to go into battle in person, otherwise it will be difficult to turn back if the talks collapse, and you will have to leave some leeway.
So, the real negotiations are all in the following contacts.
After the first day of talks, Chen Lijun reported the results of the contact to Shen Hui.
"It's not too good. ”
Chen Lijun said: "The Japanese government is very wary of foreign investment, and the conditions are also quite harsh, and the list of companies that allow us to merge and acquire are all small enterprises that are not well managed in the industries that the Japanese government allows foreign capital to enter, and there are many requirements, such as no layoffs, no damage to existing brands, no more than the specified proportion of Chinese managers, business performance and employee income to increase year by year, etc., it can be said that there is no sincerity in negotiation." ”
Shen Hui asked, "What about the companies in the list we gave, what do the Japanese say?"
Chen Lijun said: "All of them have been denied, and there is no room at all." ”
Shen Hui rubbed his eyebrows, thought for a while, and said: "You guys talk first, tomorrow I will visit Mitsubishi's people and then look at the situation, since it is a negotiation, you have to come and go, sit all over the sky and ask for a price, sit on the ground and bargain, do not waste a little saliva, it is impossible to negotiate with patience, and even once or twice may not be able to negotiate, there are more than a few more times, the so-called good things are more grinding!"
Chen Lijun nodded, and was ready to fight a protracted war, and said: "Although the Japanese refused very strongly, I felt that there may not be no chance, otherwise if there is really no need to talk about it, just drag it out first, there is no need to leave no room at all, or this may be a foreshadowing made by the Japanese for the sky-high price in the back, and you can see one or two after a few more contacts." ”
Shen Hui agreed: "Then you continue to talk, and I'll talk to Yoshida Shoichi tomorrow!"
This kind of negotiation is like fighting a war for a while, and the vanguard troops go first, which is tantamount to testing each other.
When the temptation is almost over, the main team will be pressed and the real fight will be made.
When the main force is almost finished, the big boss finally comes out to fight the winner.
I can't be in a hurry, so I can only be patient to contact and test first to see where the bottom line of the Japanese is.
At night, Wu Jie was bored lying in bed, watching strange programs on TV, a little painful, and he couldn't understand half a sentence of the chirping bird language, feeling like a fool listening to a book from heaven, with a sense of being oppressed by IQ.
The door was open, and Sun Yang drove back and forth in the corridor, silent, calm.
Originally, he was on vacation, but Shen Hui's safety came first when he went abroad, so he hurriedly ended his vacation and rushed back.
Shen Hui came out this time, and the security personnel alone brought no less than twenty people, except for Wu Jie and Sun Yang who lived in the opposite door, the other security personnel also lived on the left and right, and everyone who came to this floor was the target of the security personnel.
Sun Yang and Wu Jie were also divided into two shifts, each on duty in the corridor for two hours.
After ten o'clock, Wu Zhuo went to replace Sun Yang.
Walking back and forth in the corridor is a bit boring, and the silence is a test of the soul.
Wu Jie likes to be hot and high, and doesn't like to be quiet, so he feels even more difficult.
I was bored when I suddenly heard a slight sound of footsteps not far away.
Wu Jie immediately stopped, turned his head to look over, and saw a little girl about twenty years old turning around the corner and walking over lightly, as if she was afraid of accidentally breaking this quiet, so she was very careful with her feet.
