Chapter 664: A New Blueprint
A week after Link and Neil and Fllen celebrated the gold futures operation, Claire returned from New York.
He brought back a text of the agreement. That was the result of negotiations between him and several consortia in the east.
After Link got the text, he read it carefully before asking Claire, "These conditions have already been determined?"
"Yes, the terms of the agreement in this text have been basically determined, and they are waiting for the two parties to confirm and sign. ”
Link thought for a moment and said, "I'm okay here." If there's no problem on their side, sign up. "The consortium in the east is banded together to negotiate with Claire. Perhaps it was because the eastern consortia wanted to unite and unify their thinking.
The conditions that Claire has negotiated now, although not too good, are also above Link's bottom line.
With an annual licensing fee of $20 per ton of capacity, the Eastern Consortium can receive a share of up to 40 million tons of capacity. As for how they divide internally, Link doesn't care.
These are still the basics, in order to divide the market and let everyone contribute to the implementation of unmanned logistics systems.
And the biggest benefit is not yet those transports. It's a logistics center.
This needs to be negotiated further. But Link also probably has a bottom.
The logistics center in Huazhou is invested by Huazhou Logistics Company, California is invested by a California consortium, and Texas is invested by a Texas consortium. The Great Lakes Oil Chicago consortium and the Eastern Seven consortium split. The other states jointly built and operated. East of the Mississili River. The eastern consortium holds 80% of the shares, while to the west, Huazhou Logistics Company holds 30% and Southwest Logistics Group owns 40%. The Eastern Consortium accounts for 30% in total
Ozette Truck Repair accepts shares from other consortiums, but Ozette Truck Repair owns 40% of the shares. The remaining 60 percent was split by other consortia for a total of $4 billion. Of this, 800 million yuan went to financial investment companies, and the other 3.2 billion dollars were injected into truck maintenance companies.
Although Huazhou Logistics' total capacity is limited to eight million tons, these conditions are acceptable.
All companies allocate capacity primarily to those truck drivers.
In other words, each logistics company will not actually own a large fleet of vehicles, but it can control those trucks by taking pictures of unmanned trucks. According to the negotiations, the uniform truck authorization fee in the United States is $40 per ton of capacity. This means that those logistics companies can reap the benefits of the truck drivers.
For Link, as long as the unmanned logistics system can be implemented in the United States. And he was not unprofitable in this project either. Most importantly, he has a stake in the consortium through this project, and they have become an equal partnership with each other.
With this relationship, the consortia would be tantamount to recognizing the status of the bank in the United States. Recognize, at least superficially, Link's place in the American economy.
Link left the text behind. He needs to find his lawyer to see if there are any traps or loopholes in it. This kind of thing, even if he believes Claire, he can't be unguarded.
After he put the text away, he said to Claire: "Claire, I think Ozette Bank has also expanded internationally. ”
Claire nodded and said: "You're right, now the United States, China and Brazil will all implement unmanned logistics systems, and other countries will definitely follow suit soon." If we want to participate in the unmanned logistics system project in those countries, it is more suitable to have our own bank. ”
"You're right. Now China is preparing for the logistics system, and according to our contract with the Chinese side, we can set up a bank in Hong Kong [2]. But I'm not going to set up a new bank. ”
Claire said, "Then I'll go over and see what happens." ”
"Preferably as soon as possible. ”
Claire nodded: "So when will our two remaining banks in the United States be established?"
"You plan first. The Texas Development Bank is about to go public, so you're busy thinking about other things. ”
"I'm fine. All the preparations for the listing of Bank of Texas have been made, and I don't have to be too distracted. ”
"One more thing. I intend to make Bank Ozette a group of companies. The overseas sub-banks, as well as the banks that were established this time, I hope they will become subsidiaries of Ozette Bank. ”
"That's no problem. ”
Claire knew that Link now had to get his financial system up and running as quickly as possible. Ozette Bank Link does not plan to go public, but the subsidiary bank can. When the time comes, they will be relied on to turn the Ozette Bank into a huge financial core, which can support Link's consortium ambitions.
"Where do you expect to set up a subsidiary bank of the Ozette Bank? one in Asia, one in Europe, one in South America and Australia. Do you want Africa?"
Link laughed and said, "Of course Africa does. It's sure to be a hot spot for investment. ”
"Then I'll discuss with Neil first to see if I can transfer a sum of money from their company to the bank. ”
Claire also heard about the restructuring of the financial investment company, but the fact that the funds are not moving does not mean that the funds are stored there. Now that the financial investment company has no major investment plan, of course, the money must be flowing.
Claire asked, "Are you planning to merge with Stoll? Are you moving the headquarters to Wall Street?"
Link smiled and said, "Now that Neil is planning to marry Teresa, do I still want to let the two of them live separately? And Wall Street is the base camp of capital, and it's a little difficult for Neil to stay here." ”
Claire laughed and said, "He said he was about to give Teresa a romantic proposal." I have to say that sullen people are even more unbearable. ”
Link was relieved to see that he hadn't offered to go to New York with Neil, and now Ozette Bank couldn't do without Claire.
Link laughed and said, "So, whether Flren wants to merge or not, the financial investment firm should move to Wall Street." "Whether it's public or private, you should move.
Claire also smiled and said, "Looks like it's time for me to start thinking about what gift to give Neil." Or I can prepare a bachelorette ball for him. ”
The so-called bachelorette ball is the last chance to fool around before getting married. In the prom of the South there is usually a high class of that and what. It is also possible for the woman to have a prom, but it is usually a mess between friends.
Link shook his head and said, "Are you sure he won't take Teresa there?"
"Haha, that's really possible!"
Claire laughed for a while and said, "Then I'd better think about it." He stopped laughing and said. "Then I'll go first, and I'll make a plan for you as soon as possible. About the bank. ”
He was talking about the plan to upgrade Ozette Bank into a group bank.
Link nodded and said, "Although you have to hurry up on this matter, you don't need to be in a hurry, you should think about it." I'm sorry that your vacation plans have been postponed again. ”
The amount of capital required by those sub-banks needs to be considered clearly. Because it is a subsidiary, it is likely to accept the participation of the bank of the local country, and once the money is in, it is more troublesome to withdraw it.
"Any time of the day. If I miss the opportunity to realize such a blueprint, I will be annoyed for the rest of my life. ”
