Schultz was a mild-mannered man who had suffered as a child and knew how hurtful words could be, so he resented people imposing their emotions on others.

But he's not stupid.

Consumer goods like Starbucks can only make money by relying on a huge sales network, and 1,000 stores and 10,000 stores are two different concepts.

Large-scale centralized management reduces costs, which means more money is made, and at that time it was only 10 percent on hand, and it was worth much more than 200 percent of Starbucks today.

Excluding expenses, the profit of SOS 24-hour convenience stores can be almost 20%, and the store and labor are not needed, and those store owners can bear their own burdens, and Starbucks can have 25% of the net profit, which is a lot higher than the current 9%.

"Why not, 85% has to be privatized, which means Starbucks needs to be privatized and delisted?"

Schultz seemed to convince himself, "Only the first store seems to be to fulfill my father's wish, and now I am completely like a businessman, and I don't want to let go of Starbucks when I see such a good opportunity." ”

Harris was ignorant, he could hear that one was going to buy the company, the other was planning to sell, and the others knew nothing, and in his opinion the business was really boring, so he simply ran to the assembly line and learned to choose coffee beans from the staff.

Han Xuan is also thinking about this problem, the outstanding shares of listed companies should account for one-fifth of the total share capital, Starbucks is not profitable, and the main value is reflected in the stock market.

Because it has a stable rate of return, the market value is much higher than the actual value, and the privatized delisted asset will also shrink, and it is difficult to push up its price without perennial accumulation.

He looked at Anthony and said, "We will keep at least 67% to meet the minimum standard that can be privatized and delisted." The other shares will stay in the market first, and when the stock price does not meet expectations, it is not too late to delist. ”

"Yes. Anthony nodded, and breathed a sigh of relief at the moment, both grandfather and grandson are virtuous and like to hold shares in their own hands.

In times of danger, only they will suffer. It's a fool's dream to ask others to help, and now Starbucks, as well as Hasbro's swap shares with Marvel, seem to have finally opened up.

If other shareholders also hold shares, they can't see their property shrinking, and they can help the association, and the top ten consortia all hold shares with each other, so they can exist stably for nearly a hundred years, which is the best guarantee to resist risks.

"There are two ways to do it, suspend financing. Diluting the shares of other shareholders, let's buy a little more, Mr. Gaschultz can hold more than 51% of the shares, has the decision-making power, and I believe that no one else will object.

There is also the fact that trading is never suspended, and the stock market is acquired from other shareholders first, and then capital is injected, and I personally recommend the second approach. The price to pay is a little smaller. ”

"Mr. Schultz, do you agree with this decision?" Han Xuan asked, turning his head.

"Okay. However, it will be delayed for a few days, and it will take at least a week to go to the bank to mortgage the shares and cash out. ”

"It's okay to go to my bank, East West Bank, mortgage it with a market value of 100 million, and I'll talk to the CEO about it. I can get the funds on the spot, and when I come over today and be seen by many people, it is inevitable that the news will leak, and I will ask the bank to send someone over.

That's it, let's go sign the contract. Mr. Anthony, I'll leave the rest to you......"

On the way here, I inquired with the driver about the news.

Leaving Anthony to discuss the details with Schultz, Han Xuan asked for a car, and left with Jason's bodyguards and Harris to deal with things first.

BMW cars drive along the mountain roads, and even in downtown Seattle, you can see many hills, where the snow-capped mountains are lower than those in Flathead, the air pollution is greater, and the whole of the Rainier Snow Mountains seems to be covered with a veil.

Walk through the city to the sea.

Jason was unfamiliar with the road, and followed the signs to the Port of Seattle, which was full of containers of various colors, "Hey, ma'am, do you know where the second branch of the Tacoma Shipyard is located?"

Hear Jason's words.

A woman riding on her own stopped on the side of the road, pressed her toes against the ground, turned her head to the south, and said, "There, I just passed by it twenty minutes ago."

It's better not to go around the first shipyard, where aircraft carriers are being built, it's easy to be misunderstood, stop when you see the sign of the second shipyard, and don't go any further. ”

"Thank you. Han Xuan said with a smile.

As soon as the car started, I unexpectedly found that the customs police not far away were escorting an Indian forward, and I guessed that it was either smuggling or smuggling.

Another customs patrol officer pushed a small cart, in which two little guys of more than 20 centimeters, like puppies, raised their hands high, and then looked closely, their hair was reddish-brown, their limbs were brown-black, their faces were round with white markings, and their big tails were more than half of their body length, with brown-black and brown-yellow rings on them.

Have Jason park the car.

Han Xuan was about to see what kind of animal it was, Harris followed and got out of the car, Jason didn't care about the car and was stuck on the side of the road, blocking the traffic, opening the door and running out.

"Sir, Mr. Policeman!" Han Xuan beckoned.

"What, what's the matter?" asked one of the customs patrol officers who had walked in front of him as he paused and turned back, and a bearded old policeman asked.

The Indian was emaciated, wearing a gray shirt, his hands handcuffed, and his expression depressed.

"I happened to be passing by here, and I disturbed you, sir, may I ask if the fox is in the cage?. ”

"Foxes? They're not foxes, red pandas from cargo ships that grow in southwest Asia, you may not have seen them. ”

The old policeman waved his hand and asked the Indian to be escorted into the car, pointing to the cage and smiling.

Inadvertently saw Jason's waist, stunned, and then found that he took out a gun license from his pocket, "I'm a bodyguard, and there are legal gun handling procedures." ”

The policeman took it and looked at Han Xuan and Harris, no criminal would bring the child out, the luxury car bodyguard, it was completely standard for the rich, and he nodded and said, "If you like it, look at it for a while."

This thing can rarely be found, mostly monkeys, minks, snakes and the like, the red panda is a protected animal, he put them in a box, if it weren't for the dog to find the smell, we don't know, damn it!"

Han Xuan nodded in agreement, walked over and squatted in front of the cage, the two red pandas had not grown up yet, they had only been a few months old, and they were a little different from those who had grown up.

The gesture of raising his hands in surrender has not been put down until now, he looks quite weak, his round face has lost weight, and his hair is dirty.

Spotting the boys, they sniffed their noses curiously, their ears were upright, their eyes were innocent and lovely, and their mouths were open and their tongues sticking out, as if they were hungry.

Instantly adorned by them, Han Xuan looked at the customs patrol, "Where will they be taken?"

"Animal police department, maybe end up at the zoo, sorry, it may be a bit difficult to get them back home, there is no place in the United States specifically for red pandas to live. ”

"Mr. Policeman, if I want to adopt them, is that okay?" (To be continued.) )
