Chapter 296: Money Solves All Problems

Under the escort of such a powerful force, they felt the sunny side of Cape Town, where there were so many dangers and conflicts, where there was no uneasiness and chaos in the outside world, but only a distant conversation or two on the lips of the daytime café.

Yang Ming talked to Williams about business and cooperation.

Williams gave him some more advice: "You need business qualifications here, I have several companies, and if you start, you can skip a lot of steps—"

"Don't worry, I'm going to meet with parliamentarians and senior officials and donate a sum of money, no problem. Whether it is the qualification of the enterprise, it is only the voice of political support. "Yang Ming has been playing this game for a long time.

It was also suggested by Li Jianjun, since you have money and are still a foreign businessman, then the most direct way to do things in this country is money! From the presidential cabinet to the police chief, no one is uncompromising!

Because the local anti-corruption agency is non-existent, it takes an average of four years to complete an investigation report, and even more funny, the leaders of the agency have also been reported for corruption.

Williams understood: "Then you can start to make a big splash and start on this owned land, the convenience of being a person of color — at least you're much less hostile than we are, white people are here, and the government is naturally hostile to exploit them." ”

"But you are an American, a supplier to the world hegemon, don't complain!" Yang Ming smiled, and Williams complained.

The reason is that everything here revolves around the interests of black people, but there have been laws and regulations to protect the vulnerable people of color, and he can be affected by this treatment.

"Okay, let's get down to business. I need your software technology, the algorithms of the robot, you need my hardware foundation, and I need the supply of direct testing. In the United States or in China, our cooperation cannot be carried out, but here, everything is possible!"

Yang Ming said: "Actually, I want to know how advanced the algorithm is, because I have a good breakthrough in artificial intelligence in this area, and your hardware technology, to be honest, I have other choices." ”

"That's not what we're talking about......" Williams laughed, and negotiations began!

Of course, the negotiation is indispensable for the constant temptation of the price code.

It is impossible for Yang Ming to hand over all the algorithms to the other party, and the set taken out by the intelligent assistant is quite advanced!

Therefore, Yang Ming wants to know how far the other party wants, and he can directly hand it over to him in the later cooperation!

Williams wants software technology, he has seen racing and artificial intelligence projects, and he wants to be better able to show his absolute advantage in some defense orders in the United States and Europe.

"You want to take control of the company, but I'm worried that you won't be able to enjoy better technology......," Williams thought.

"That's our biggest disagreement. Yang Ming nodded.

"It's better to set up a joint venture company, you contribute the majority of the shares, and I am responsible for a small part, so that I can enjoy the benefits of newer technology, and the control is still yours. ”

If both sides go their own way, they will not be able to make much progress in cooperation negotiations because there is no exchange of trust.

Although usually as friends, business is business.

The Americans are quite serious about this.

Yang Ming also talked with him for a long time, and it was almost in the evening that he almost agreed to this decision, and then continued to be talked by his assistant on the second and third days.

……

Yang Ming took the time to participate in the planning of the security company, and after the management knew that Yang Ming's investment budget could be as much as 100 million US dollars, they specially carried out corporate reforms in line with this scale.

$100 million may not be a lot in the United States, but South Africa, which has a GDP of just over $300 billion, is already a considerable amount of foreign investment.

The role that can be played is also huge, so the first thing to change is the structure, the company changed its name and directly used the English abbreviation: EMC, South African Military Resources Corporation.

It has two major subsidiaries: regular security and PMC business.

The former has developed very well and will not worry about expanding the market at any time.

The latter PMC requires qualifications because of its military organizational nature, the former EO was disbanded by the country's government, and some political parties in South Africa used to resist the mercenary industry.

Of course, it was only in the past, because it is now a capitalist society, and money is the easiest way to solve the problem! Yang Ming prepared enough red envelopes, and after making an appointment with the relevant personnel, he continued to "donate".

After the current discussions, the EMC Group was established!

It has domestic private security qualifications and operations, and has a more military PMC business, which is equipped with weapons and training content, and has a higher level.

……

After that, the negotiations with Williams were also properly completed, with Yang Ming responsible for 80% investment and technology, and Williams responsible for providing 20% of products to establish a robotics company.

Yang Ming was able to use all of the other party's robots and industrial technology for research and development, and was able to use the equipment and weapons they provided, among other things. If the project is commercialized, licensing and fee sharing are required.

Williams can use the company's software technology to put it into business, but there is a consideration that people are accustomed to thinking: Yang Ming will definitely put it into commercial use.

In fact, Yang Ming may not necessarily put it into commercial use, he may want to store it, because he doesn't feel short of money in the future, so more freedom is in his hands.

The cooperation was also negotiated, and Yang Ming directly obtained the qualification through the acquisition of Williams, a company that had operated in South Africa for many years and had provided military machinery and equipment to the government.

After that, it can be renamed as his robot industry company, he accounts for eighty percent, and the employees will be transferred accordingly, Yang Ming lacks a foundation, and he can use these people.

In the end, he still needs to face the R&D personnel!

If it's in the United States, there's not much of a problem in recruiting people, but in South Africa, there is really a little problem, black people are basically useless, and their education is too low to play these games.

There are many high-level intellectuals among the local white people, and although after the fall of the white government, a lot of them went abroad, but there are still four or five million white people in South Africa, and there should be some of them who can be used.

But Yang Ming thinks that the best choice is still Chinese - bring a batch from China, a matter of minutes. The place to use the locals, because of the regulations!

The local law is very black-biased, companies must have blacks, there must be a black index percentage, the higher the proportion can get better treatment, local employees also need to be required, to increase the employment rate of local people, and so on.

This kind of overlord clause is not bad, in the mining sector, it is mandatory that 30% of the company's shares must belong to blacks, and at the management level, how many blacks must be required.

Now there is also news that the government wants to forcibly repossess the land of whites and give them land to farming. Although it is said that it is thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, this is the grievance of someone else's family, and Yang Ming can't care about it.

But if you think about it, the consequences of forced GC will only collapse the domestic economy and order faster, especially if whites have guns...... That's why he felt that black people's brains were really lacking.

They are amazingly talented in stealing, cheating, and corruption, whether it is Li Jianjun or Williams, they are sure that when dealing with the government, you must prepare money first!

Other procedural issues and formalities can be negotiated under the offensive of US dollars!

Stepping into the key fields of national defense contracting and weapons research and development, Yang Ming, a newcomer to foreign-funded enterprises, will be cautiously concerned and treated cautiously in other countries.

But now he is ambitious to get friends with congressmen and committee members! Maybe one day he wants to sell weapons to the president.
