After communicating with Rumsfeld, the CEO of Blackwater, Li Feng had a more detailed understanding of Blackwater, and looking at the information in his hand, Li Feng also pondered.

This is the detailed situation of Blackwater and Thor, and today's Thor Company can be said to have reduced its core business by more than half compared to the famous Thor Company in the previous life. Yes, the scale of Thorism today is even slightly inferior to Blackwater.

According to history, in 97 years, whether it was the military department of Texas Instruments, Hughes Aircraft Company and Hughes Laboratory, it would be Thor's cake, and it was finally acquired and merged by Thor.

And these two are precisely the most important departments of Raytheon in the future, mainly including missiles, satellites, and defense departments, which are the core departments and top priorities of Raytheon in the previous life.

The combined Blackwater-Raytheon company will become a large military industrial company with more than 50,000 employees, and there is also a cooperation plan for Li Feng's media company to acquire some of Raytheon's publishing and media-related businesses.

If the two sides do not increase their capital, after the merger of the company, Li Feng will hold almost 38% of the shares, becoming the veritable largest shareholder of Blackwater-Raytheon, and there are more than 100 shareholders of the entire Raytheon Company.

At the same time, Li Feng discovered the figure of the two families of Roosevelt and Rockefeller through understanding, according to the information summarized by the intelligence department, the two families will be between 12-15% after the merger, that is to say, in the previous Raytheon Company, there are actually shares of the two families, although not much.

This made Li Feng secretly surprised by these old families in his heart, and suddenly realized that the rumors that he had always heard about these families in his previous life were only influential, and they were inferior to the richest man in Forbes in terms of financial resources.

……

Of course, Li Feng also has a backhand, for example, whether it is Goldman Sachs or Da Mo, after helping to participate, they will eventually hold 3-5% of different shares, and Li Feng will acquire it at that time, which has been secretly negotiated in private before.

In addition to about 12% of the shares on the surface, Li Feng will actually control more than 40% of the shares, and if he acquires a little, he will control the company, so Li Feng is looking forward to the merger more and more.

After all, if you can really secretly control such a company, it will be a bull's fork at that time, and the US imperialists will almost really be able to walk sideways like a crab.

Another point is that since Blackwater's Hughes Labs still has a 49% stake in General Motors, the combined company General Electric will also become a shareholder, and GM will give up the Hughes Laboratories stake and convert it to an equivalent stake in the entire merged company.

Just when the merger between Blackwater and Raytheon was in full swing, the news of the merger of the two companies naturally caused a wide ripple in the industry, after all, with the report to the Ministry of Defense and Congress, it is impossible not to cause a sensation, but most of them are in the industry.

Yes, these mergers of the US imperialist military-industrial complex are far inferior to those of the rest of the companies, such as media groups, in terms of their influence on the outside world.

Think about the merger of Boeing and McDonnell Douglas, and the previous merger between Lockheed and Martin, which were all mergers at the level of tens of billions or even hundreds of billions, and as a result, except for those professionals, there was no news coming out.

……

As I said before, the military industrial complex of US imperialism is definitely underestimated, and it is incredible to think that in later generations, including Google, Apple and other companies, the market value is not 5, 600 billion or even 8 or 900 billion, and such as Lockheed Martin and Boeing are not even 100 billion.

The reason for this, with Li Feng's in-depth understanding of Heishui, is also clear about the Tao.

That's right, many people don't know that although these military-industrial enterprises all earn money from the US imperialist Ministry of Defense, and they are all profitable, in fact, they can't be seen in the statements of the enterprises at all.

Well, for example, Heishui, Li Feng is very clear that he paid dividends once in the first half of this year, and distributed hundreds of millions of dollars, but these funds are quiet, and the company shows that it has not made much money at all in order to reasonably avoid taxes.

It's no wonder that the performance of military enterprises on Wall Street is too poor, your company is not profitable, how can your market value be high, but in fact, the behind-the-scenes shareholders of these military enterprises are making a lot of money, in fact, this is also the default unspoken rule.

Even the White House, the Pentagon, etc., do not want the performance of military industrial enterprises to be exposed, after all, after the exposure, whether it is in terms of personal interests lost or facing various external pressures, it is not small.

Thinking about the military budget so much every year, if it is fully exposed, it will not be a big deal.

……

Li Feng often saw the news on the Internet in his previous life, saying that the market value of Lockheed Martin was only a few tens of billions less than 100 billion, while the market value of the domestic Penguin and the Forty Thieves was 4 or 500 billion.

Well, in terms of the market capitalization of the stock market, it seems that this is really the case, but everyone who understands knows that even if you exchange 10 shares of Penguin, you will not be able to exchange one Lockheed Martin shares.

If businesses can be acquired at will, then with a market value of tens of billions like Lockheed Martin, it would have been acquired a long time ago, but unfortunately, no company dares to acquire it, which cannot be acquired at all.

Similarly, Blackwater-Raytheon will also face such a situation in the future, if you want to say that others want to buy it for tens of billions of dollars, don't even think about it, it is a dream.

After all, if it is after the merger, then it means that a new super military giant-level enterprise is about to rise in the United States, and it is impossible for such an enterprise that has mastered the cutting-edge military technology of the United States imperialism to be acquired. Similarly, it also means that Li Feng will completely enter the door of the top power in the United States.

If it can operate for decades in the future, perhaps the United States will rise to a top family such as Rockefeller, Morgan, DuPont, etc., which is also Li Feng's goal in this life.

……

In the next three days, in Santa Monica, Los Angeles, Li Feng and representatives of Blackwater's management, including Rockefeller and Roosevelt, and representatives of shareholders and management of Raytheon also gathered.

In fact, in terms of urgency, Raytheon hopes that the two can merge, mainly because the core business of Raytheon has been intercepted by Li Feng, and in the face of the frenzy of mergers of major military enterprises of the United States imperialism since the 90s, Raytheon feels more and more that there is no core competitiveness.

On the contrary, the two major divisions acquired by Blackwater have the core competitiveness of leading the world, such as Hughes in the field of satellite aerospace and the military department of Texas Instruments, which is leading in the field of missiles and radar.

In the field of radar, in addition to Grumman, Blackwater has become the strongest, and the rest even include Lockheed Martin, etc., many familiar names such as F15, 22 and other top aircraft, the radar warning system above is actually mostly from the previous Texas Instruments system, which is now Blackwater, not to mention, Hughes's leading edge in the aerospace field.

This is also the reason why Raytheon himself sent it to the door, people originally had a plan to merge and merge these two major businesses, but before they could do it, Li Feng held his best advantage in his hand and directly exchanged shares and cash with others, which made Raytheon Company depressed.

What is coming is the final negotiation between Blackwater and Raytheon, and the merger is nearing the end after nearly 1 month of negotiations, and the spokespersons of all parties are finally staying in the foreground.

Including the major shareholders behind Thor and Blackwater, it can be said that it is a top-level gathering of the upper echelons of American imperialism. What retired generals, active generals, senators, and congressmen gathered a number of bigwigs from all walks of life, which also opened Li Feng's eyes.

......

In this regard, Li Feng is still full of expectations.
