Chapter 0585 Raising Funds
As soon as the two reasons for entering the luxury car market and Rolls-Royce in financial crisis were stated, it seemed that Tianming Automobile's acquisition of Rolls-Royce became even more natural.
Especially after hearing that Rolls-Royce Motor Cars was currently struggling and in financial crisis, the people in the conference room became silent.
"If what Mr. Zhou said is true, then it seems that it is not impossible for us to acquire Rolls-Royce!"
"If we can really acquire Rolls-Royce into our company, it will definitely be of great benefit to our company's brand operation in the future. ”
"Rolls-Royce has become our country's company, and it's still quite exciting to think about it!"
…………
The two reasons mentioned by Zhou Jingming have made many people in the conference room begin to seriously consider the acquisition of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, and many people have even begun to look forward to the beautiful picture after the acquisition.
But as the chief financial officer, Ma Xudong is still frowning, and is not as optimistic as the rest, although the two reasons Zhou Jingming said are very convincing, but Ma Xudong has to consider not these, he has to consider the problem of money.
"Mr. Zhou, have you carefully considered the amount of money required to acquire Rolls-Royce?" Ma Xudong looked at Zhou Jingming, "The company's current financial situation is likely not to support this cross-border acquisition." ”
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how Rolls-Royce falls into financial crisis, the brand value of this ultra-luxury car brand will not be reduced, and his parent company, Vicks, will not sell Rolls-Royce Motor Company at a low price, so the acquisition amount is a problem that Tianming Automobile Company has to consider at present.
"Didn't I go to you a few days ago, the amount of funds asked at that time was 600 million US dollars, there is such an offer, it should be possible to buy Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, but the specific acquisition amount, I need your finance department to carefully study the financial statements of Rolls-Royce in recent years, and then give a most reasonable offer. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.
The reason why Zhou Jingming is so sure that he can take Rolls-Royce Motor Cars with about 600 million US dollars is because Volkswagen used 1.44 billion marks to take Rolls-Royce under its umbrella, 1.44 billion marks, converted into US dollars, about 800 million US dollars, if the negotiations go well, Tianming Company will not need 800 million US dollars at all, it will be able to successfully take Rolls-Royce.
Of course, Tianming Automobile Company has not officially contacted Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and Wicks Group, and the specific quotation still needs to be judged according to the actual situation, 600 million US dollars is only the lowest price, and the final transaction price will only be more than 600 million US dollars, not less.
"I don't think there's a way to buy Rolls-Royce for $600 million. Ma Xudong shook his head and said.
"So I'll ask your finance department to make a comprehensive assessment of the financial situation of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, and then give me a specific acquisition plan. ”
"Such a large enterprise merger, I am afraid that our finance department alone may not be able to complete it, I think can we ask external financial institutions to assist us in completing the determination of the merger plan?" Ma Xudong continued to ask, after all, it involves a business merger of up to 600 million US dollars, although Ma Xudong has worked in the financial field for many years, but there are too many things to consider in the merger, if it is not done well, it may cause the acquisition to fail.
"Okay, if you need the assistance of any financial institution, you can ask for it from the Ministry of Finance, whether it is domestic or foreign, I can meet your requirements. Zhou Jingming nodded.
Now that we have made up our minds to buy Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, we must be fully prepared, and whether the merger plan is good or bad will be directly related to whether the Wix Group is willing to sell Rolls-Royce to Tianming Motor Company.
With the assistance of an external financial institution, the success rate of the acquisition will be greater.
Zhou Jingming looked at everyone again, "Who else has any questions you want to ask?"
After glancing around, Zhou Jingming saw that no one asked any more questions, so he continued, "The acquisition of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has been decided, this matter is the most important work of our company in the second half of this year, before we officially give the acquisition plan, this matter is our company's top secret, so please do a good job of confidentiality." ”
After successfully ending this meeting, Zhou Jingming gave a few separate instructions to Ma Xudong.
"Lao Ma, this merger will definitely be a protracted battle, so the finance department, I will trouble you, the more perfect the acquisition plan is, the more conducive it is for us to complete the merger of Rolls-Royce. ”
Zhou's plan is to complete the entire acquisition of Rolls-Royce before the end of this year, and then next year, it can pave the way for entering the luxury car market.
"I know Mr. Zhou, I will do this well. Ma Xudong replied solemnly.
After instructing Ma Xudong about this, Zhou Jingming walked straight to his office, and saw Zhao Ke standing at the door from a distance, as if waiting for him.
"The door is not locked, why don't you go in and wait for me?" Zhou Jingming walked forward quickly and asked with a smile.
"This is the general manager's office, you are not here, how can I go in casually. Zhao Ke smiled and followed Zhou Jingming into the office.
"What, is it still for the acquisition of Rolls-Royce?" After Zhou Jingming sat down, he asked with a smile, "Then don't persuade me to give up this matter, the acquisition of Rolls-Royce is something I have planned for a long time, and it must be implemented in the second half of this year." ”
"I don't know your personality yet? I didn't intend to persuade you at all, besides, the acquisition of Rolls-Royce is indeed good for enhancing our company's brand value, and I also support such a decision, but I think it is too sudden. Zhao Ke responded with a smile.
Without any preparation, he suddenly learned that the company was going to buy Rolls-Royce, and whoever replaced him would definitely not be at peace.
"I forgot to inform you before the meeting, mainly because you can't help with this matter, so I didn't discuss it with you. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile, when it comes to the merger of the company, it is already beyond the scope of Zhao Ke's ability.
"Corporate mergers and acquisitions are indeed not an area we are familiar with, but now the problem is, how to raise funds for the acquisition of Rolls-Royce, the acquisition amount of 600 million US dollars, with the current financial status of our company, there should be no way to come up with so much at once, right?" Zhao Ke asked worriedly.
In the past two years, in order to develop Yixuan SUV, coupled with the construction of SUV production workshops in three places at the same time, most of the company's funds have been invested in this project, and more than 3 billion yuan has been taken out at once, which is basically a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle.
"I talked to Lao Ma about the capital, he said that with the current situation of the company, this money can still be taken out, but it is also necessary to carry out short-term financing to cope with the normal operation of the company. ”
Speaking of the acquisition of funds, Zhou Jingming's face also became solemn.
