After formally handing over the legal documents for the share exchange with the Field family, Yang Weiping entrusted McKinsey & Company to conduct a comprehensive investigation into the existing assets and operations of six companies: Rolls-Royce, Lotus Motor Company, Kuwait Oil Company, Rio Tinto Company, Portsmouth Shipyard, and Airbus Aviation.

Although Rolls-Royce was declared nationalized by the British government in 1972, it did not affect the Rolls-Royce shares held by the Field family. At present, the company's operating conditions are quite stable, but the shortcomings of state-owned enterprises cannot be ruled out.

Lotus's brand in the global sports car market is still strong, but Chapman, the company's general manager, is in poor health, which has caused the company's business to decline.

In March 1975, the Kuwait Oil Company announced that all its shares had been taken back by Kuwait, but in fact the Kuwaiti government only reached a private agreement with the Field family and the Rockefeller family of the United States to build momentum and build an image for the Kuwaiti government, and then contain the oil exports of Iran and Iraq. In fact, the shares of the Fields and Rockefellers were only appropriately ceded in exchange for the two families' stakes in other state-owned oil fields in Kuwait.

Rio Tinto Group of Companies, which is currently on an upward trend of full expansion, has acquired a number of mining companies with mineral advantages in coal, iron, copper, gold, diamonds, aluminum, and energy. It has recently become a takeover of Hammersley Iron Ore Pty Ltd, Australia's second largest iron ore producer. In the Pilbara region of Western Australia, there are five large mines, Tom Price Iron Mine, Parabhudu Iron Mine, Chana Iron Mine, Marandu Iron Ore Mine and Bunockman Second Mining Area, with proven reserves of about 2.1 billion tons, and the company's annual iron ore production capacity of 55 million tons, and the company's operating and financial conditions are very good.

Portsmouth Shipyard is a cooperative shipyard of Portsmouth Naval Shipyard in the United Kingdom, mainly providing ship design, manufacturing, repair and other aspects of business for the British Royal Navy, mainly destroyers and submarines, and also undertaking private yacht orders. Business is sufficient, but there is no room for further upside.

European Airbus, although the new Airbus A300 has now been mass-produced, but the main cities or airlines of European countries, although there are other models that compete with the American Boeing company, but in the large long-range civil transport aircraft market has been a blank, can not shake the absolute dominance of Boeing 747.

In general, these six companies are all good assets.

Even if the British company Lotus has temporary financial problems, with Lotus's good reputation in the global sports car market, it is not difficult to solve the current crisis by diluting its shares.

It's just that Yang Weiping didn't plan to use money to help Lotus Auto tide over the current difficulties.

The biggest problem of Lotus Automobile is not the problem of the capital chain, but the lack of core technology and technical strength of the company's automobile engine.

Lotus specializes in luxury sports car models and chassis design, and the engines required have always been purchased from Ford and Renault.

Body materials and engines are the biggest shortcomings of Lotus Automobile Company.

And this aspect is Yang Weiping's strongest field.

In the last generation, Lotus was acquired by General Motors of the United States in the mid-eighties and became a subsidiary of General Motors specializing in the production of luxury sports cars.

Now, of course, Yang Weiping will not let GM take advantage of this big advantage.

Now he holds part of the shares of six multinational companies, and is one of the few hidden shareholders of these six companies, and he can be said to have sufficient funds and resources, laying a very solid foundation for the upcoming large-scale industrial plan.

It is precisely because of this that he has enough confidence to invest heavily in the construction of a large-scale modern industrial base in Kenya. …,

Sometimes, it is not a good thing to control the investment in a company, especially for the kind of large resource-based company, the national government of the company belongs to the company, and the shareholder structure of such companies has quite strict nationality requirements.

The appropriate amount of equity participation is conducive to creating a huge network of complex personal relationships for private interweaving, and adding several more protective colors and umbrellas to individuals.

Old Field transferred all the shares of the British Lotus Automobile Company controlled by the family to the name of Xiusfeld, and it was clearly clear that with the deep friendship between Xiusfeld and Yang Weiping, he would definitely not sit idly by and watch the Lotus Automobile Company go bankrupt.

Since John Young is planning to invest in a large motorcycle manufacturing plant in Kenya, his ambition is not only to produce motorcycles.

If you can build a motorcycle, you must also have an idea about making a car.

"Field, Lotus, you don't have to worry too much. Yang Weiping reached out and patted Hughsfeld's arm, and said with a confident smile: "When we finish the cooperation with Mercedes, I will take the time to accompany you to the UK." Don't you think that the annual output of Lotus Motors is only more than 500 sports cars, which is too small?"

Hughsfeld's trust in Yang Weiping is now infinitely close to superstitious worship. Hearing him say this, he was immediately confident, nodded with bright eyes and said: "Yang, I hope to build our Lotus into a comprehensive surpass Ferrari and Porsche, the world's largest sports car manufacturer, there is no one!"

"Yes! Yang Weiping smiled and nodded.

"Yang, I have an idea. Hughsfield said happily: "Didn't you say that our Giant will launch a supreme model made of titanium alloy next, can we use this titanium alloy for the body and body of the Lianhua sports car?"

"It's not just about titanium, it's about new aluminum alloys. Yang Weiping replied without thinking about it: "Moreover, I also plan to use a carbon fiber composite material, and in terms of electronic technology, I will also increase radar navigation technology." I'm either not playing, or I'm playing, I'm not playing any of the best sports cars. ”

"GOOD! Yang, I know that you are capable of anything!" Hughsfeld raised his hand excitedly and snapped his fingers loudly.

As he spoke, Chrysman strode out of the study calmly, walked up to Yang Weiping and Hughsfield, and sat down calmly under Yang Weiping's hand and gesture.

"Mr. Yang, people from our head office will arrive in Nairobi by special plane tomorrow. Chrysman said in a calm tone: "Mr. Frederick, vice president, come and talk to you in person. ”

"I will definitely let the vice president of your company spend a very pleasant holiday in Nairobi. Yang Weiping smiled and said: "For sincere collaborators, I will never disappoint them. Mr. Chrysman, I promise, in the future, Mercedes, will get more!"

"I'm convinced of that. Chrysman nodded vigorously and said solemnly: "Now the big companies in the whole world know that whoever establishes a cooperative relationship with Dr. John Yang of Tiangong Laboratory means that a big gold mine has been dug up!"

"Science and technology will be the world's primary productive force in the future!" Yang Weiping's eyes became deep, and he said leisurely: "Whoever can represent the development direction of the most advanced productive forces will be able to grasp the most resources and wealth." ”

……

Nairobi, which has just finished the rainy season, has ushered in the long-awaited tourist season.

Tsavo National Park is the largest safari park in Kenya and one of the largest in Africa. It is located 160 kilometres southeast of the capital, Nairobi, and stretches on either side of the middle section of the Nairobi-Mombasa road. It covers an area of more than 20,000 square kilometers. The terrain in the park is complex, with mountains, plains, rocks, sandy soils, savannahs, and shrubs. …,

June is autumn in Kenya, and baobab trees are everywhere, and black locusts grow lonely on the grasslands, with the occasional giraffe or two happily feeding on the leaves of the black locust trees.

Euphorbia trees are upside down on the side of the dirt road. Long weeds, shrubs, and trees obliterated everything on either side of the road, and the narrow-gauge railroad, churches, schools, rudimentary football fields, grazing cattle and sheep, and blacks resting in front of tin civilian houses all looked like they were buried in the wilderness.

Two military Land Rover off-road vehicles, kicking up a cloud of yellow dust, weave through the bushes where wildebeests, zebras and giraffes alternate.

In mid-air, a Bobcat helicopter sprayed with the Blue Shield logo of the Rock Security Company followed the two military Land Rovers unhurriedly and circled at a low altitude of 300 meters.

The cabin door was half in the sky, and the black and shiny barrel of an L7A2 general-purpose machine gun stretched out, and the yellow and clear metal bullet chain shimmered with brilliant golden light under the sunlight.

An Asian mercenary of about 244 years old, holding an L42A17.62 NATO caliber sniper rifle in his arms, rested his left leg on the outside of the hatch, and held a military high-powered telescope in his right hand to observe the scene on the ground, and from time to time reported "safety" signals through the walkie-talkie.

In this area where wildlife gathers, herbivores such as antelopes, bison, and wildebeest can be found everywhere, kingfishers, ostriches, crowned cranes, and spotted coyotes appear from time to time, while carnivores such as lions and cheetahs always take a lot of effort to find.

Towards noon, two military Land Rovers were guided by helicopters above and entered the Tsavo National Park's dedicated hunting area.

"01, 01, at ten o'clock, sixteen kilometers in a straight line, there is a lion pack. ”

Another Land Rover, about fifteen meters behind the one in front, heard a clear announcement on its on-board radio.

In the back seat of the car, Yang Weiping, who was wearing a dark brown hunting jacket, flicked his fingers out of the window with the cigar butt in his hand, turned his head and rushed to the old European man in his fifties, blonde, blue-eyed and white-skinned beside him, and smiled happily: "Mr. Frederick, it seems that we are lucky to find the lions so quickly." ”

Frederick Haluha smiled and patted Yang Weiping on the shoulder, and said loudly: "Yang, in your Chinese words, I owe you a blessing." I haven't been to Africa for a long time to hunt lions, and African lions are the most ferocious beasts, and men who lack courage don't dare to shoot at them, even if they have a gun in their hands. ”

"I'm more interested in catching a lion cub as a pet. Yang Weiping smiled and said: "Of course, if you want to catch the lion cub, you must first get rid of the lioness." (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to () subscribe, reward, your support is my biggest motivation. )…… ，
