"John, I've read a lot of information about Glencore, Macridge and commodity trade in the past two days, is it really appropriate for you to get involved rashly?" asked Wang Siqing suspiciously on the private jet to London.

"What's the matter, aren't you optimistic?"

"Not really, but commodity trade often has a lot of troubles, and may even face national sanctions, isn't Macridge finally wanted for violating the interests of the U.S. government!"

"yes, that's why I think we just need to be the majority shareholder of Glencore, and the stake has to be hidden, not let outsiders know, as long as there is enough potential influence. ”

"Well, I'm just reminding you that in the end, it's up to you to make up your mind, but in terms of pure corporate investment and development, Glencore is really a good investment project.

It is said that in 94, Macridge sold Glencore's shares to today's management, worth about $600 million, and according to the equity setting of Glencore's predecessor, Macridge's shares were about 60%.

In other words, in '94, Glencore's internal valuation was around $1 billion.

Glencore's stake is now largely dispersed among management and possibly privately controlled companies controlled by Macridge, and based on Glencore's current situation, it should be valued at between $3 billion and $5 billion, thanks to Glencore's continuous acquisitions of upstream mineral resources over the past decade.

As commodity trade becomes more frequent, the threshold is getting lower and lower, there are more and more participants, and the natural competition is becoming more and more fierce, accompanied by the continuous reduction of profits, Glencore has slowly changed from the early 90s, from a simple trading company to a direct commodity supplier.

For Glencore's continuous acquisition of upstream mineral resources, this is in line with what you said, the strategy of controlling upstream source minerals, and people also have enough contacts, the only thing that is lacking may be capital, which is beneficial to us, after all, we are not short of funds, and it is good to have bank support.

But, John, in such a situation, how much do you think Glencore's management and Macridge are willing to pay for Glencore?" Wang Siqing said with a smile.

......

"Anyway, this Glencore is still very promising, let people connect first, contact and try, anyway, this can't be done all at once, by the way, what is the situation of that Marilyn Picasso?"

"Hehe... This is a second person, I have been in contact with Jana, and Jana has also heard of this Picasso's descendant, but I have not been in contact with it before, this time it is an unexpected gain, Jana is very interested in the deal with Marilyn Picasso, and is ready to try to acquire some Picasso's paintings under contact. ”

"Haha... , Okay, let her look at it, but although this Marilyn said that she looked down on her grandfather, she didn't really underestimate people, from the fact that she held so many Picasso paintings in her hands and met top Swiss figures, it can be seen that people are also shrewd people. ”

"Don't worry, we won't underestimate people to be the guests of those top people in Switzerland, Jana is now well-known in the global art market, I think since this Picasso's granddaughter is willing to sell, she is also a smart person, after all, Picasso's paintings are worth a lot of money, and she can't afford to lose them without a certain amount of financial resources, and she has so many works of art in her hands, if you want to find enough financial resources to buy, Jana is the best trading partner, isn't it?"

"Well, you can discuss it yourself, at least the artwork can maintain its value, which is the best way to increase the family heritage in the future. ”

"Well, I'll talk to Jana again. ”

"Well, I'm very interested in Picasso's posthumous works in the hands of Picasso's descendants, you can ask Jia Na to buy as much as possible, after all, Picasso's works will only become more and more valuable. ”

"Hehe, hopefully. ”

“...”

After chatting about business, he finally took a leisurely life, and pulled Wang Siqing, who was a little blushing, to the personal lounge of the plane in the ambiguous eyes of the security guard and the flight attendant service lady.

......

Just over 2 hours flight to London Heathrow International Airport.

Holding Wang Siqing, who was still a little weak and exuding an amazing charm, stepped off the private plane, and then got on the convoy that had already parked on the side of the private tarmac.

As soon as Li Feng returned home, the person in charge of the real estate company in London hurried to report on the recent situation of real estate investment projects in London, for example, he basically reached a tacit consensus with the Qatar Investment Authority, that is, the two sides basically cross-invest and will not form a pattern of malicious competition with each other.

Another example is the signing of a joint investment agreement with the Qatar Investment Authority, and the main building of the Century Centre in the south of the Thames River will be built in a twin star pattern, one of the main investors of which is the Qatar Investment Authority.

Then it brought an unexpected news, now London's real estate investment projects, there are several projects are being implemented, in addition to some fixed commercial real estate direct investment, there are also luxury communities - Chelsea Village, etc., but now there is an automatic recommendation to the door.

"Charles, you said this project is called 'One Hyde Park'?"

"Yes, Boss, have you heard of it?"

"Oh... , No, but I want to hear the name to know, One Hyde Park should be next to Hyde Park, right?" Li Feng suddenly came back to his senses and replied with a smile.

"Oh... Yes, this time it's a London property development company, it's not very big, but the company bought a few old properties on the edge of Hyde Park very early, and now they are ready to tear it down and rebuild it, and build the most advanced luxury luxury apartments in Hyde Park.

However, the strength of the previous real estate company was a little weaker, so people took the initiative to recommend it, saying that they could cooperate to build a project together, to ask if we were interested, obviously, our reputation for a series of investments in London has spread. ”

"Well, the location next to Hyde Park is a good location, and it is also suitable for building luxury apartments, after all, the location next to a large park in the center of the city is one of the best places to build luxury apartments, such as near Central Park in New York or something, you can contact people first, I think you can try, after all, London's Hyde Park is like New York's Central Park. ”

......

After reading the information handed over, Li Feng felt that this was the world-famous Hyde Park project in the future, and the information sent showed that the real estate company was a small real estate company in London, and the boss was a pair of brothers, which was basically consistent with the famous Hyde Park One project in the future.

To be honest, Li Feng was still surprised when he suddenly heard about the One Hyde Park project, after all, there was still a lot of news about One Hyde Park on the Internet in his previous life, and there were a lot of names for the world's most luxurious top apartments or something.

Anyway, Li Feng has also seen the relevant news, and in his impression he still thinks that the Hyde Park No. 1 project is not so early, it should not officially start until around 08, but now it seems to be in advance, or it was originally planned, but at first it may have been due to the limited strength of the people, and it was temporarily abandoned.

In the previous life, people may have raised enough funds to promote the project, but now because of Li Feng's Skyline Real Estate's large investment in London, it has attracted people's attention, and because of this, it has directly and automatically pushed to the door.

For this famous project in later generations, Li Feng really doesn't mind promoting it, maybe the future Hyde No. 1 project will completely change the owner.

"Finally, BOSS, we have contacted the City of London here at Admiral's Gate, but after all, the ownership belongs to the royal family, I think the royal family should also get the news, and you may need to follow up in person. ”

"Okay, I'll get in touch with Charles first, maybe it can be done. ”

"If it can be done, it will be perfect for our group's hotel group, with the palace-like Admiral Admiral Gate Waldorf Astoria Hotel and the future high-rise luxury skyline hotel in the Century Center, which can be regarded as completing the layout of the hotel in London. ”

"Well, that's how it has been recently, I'm going to contact all parties as soon as possible, and I hope it can get our wish. ”

"Hehe... , BOSS, we have considered all the factors, it should be said that the possibility is very high, and we are all confident in it. ”

"Alright then, I hope we're doing well. ”

"That's nothing, I'll just quit first, and the company still has some things to deal with in a while. ”

"Okay, I'll send you!"

"Thanks, Boss!"

“...”
