Shenzhen, China, SF headquarters. (?[{[{〉
Sitting at his desk, Wang Wei meticulously looked at the text on the table.
As the president of SF Express Group, Wang Wei, as the chief helmsman of SF, is full of legends in the half of his life, just like the company he leads. At the age of 22, with a start-up capital of 10,000 yuan, he has grown from a start-up company with a total of 6 people to SF Group, which has a market value of 10 billion.
Even Ma Yun has deep admiration for him.
But today he was visibly a little absent-minded, which is very rare. He put the pen aside and reached out to rub his somewhat sour brow.
If you think about it, the last time I had this kind of anxiety was in 2oo2.
At that time, SF Express was faced with a severe test of recovering power from franchisees. If successful, SF Express will become the first logistics enterprise in China to get rid of the franchise system and realize the direct management from enterprises to outlets.
There is no doubt that this touches the cake of large and small franchisees. However, in the process of taking over the rights, Wang Wei's expression was also quite strong, and even made it clear that before the deadline, he would either sell the company's shares to him or get out of SF.
It was Wang Wei's strength that brought him death. Some franchisees even invited the underworld forces in Xiangjiang to hunt down Wang Wei. And this incident left a deep shadow on his daily life, and to this day, he appears everywhere with 4-6 bodyguards around him.
At this time, his right-hand man Li Dong pushed the door and walked in quickly.
Wang Wei didn't blame him for not knocking on the door, but hurriedly asked.
"How about it, has the Future People Group agreed?"
Hearing this, Li Dongqi smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"No, the other party gives me the feeling that they have a lot of ambitions for the logistics market. ”
Regarding Li Dongqi's answer, Wang Wei did not seem surprised.
Occupying Vtore, a virtual reality shopping platform with huge traffic, Futureren Group even faintly has the momentum of dominating the e-commerce field. Nowadays, many people have developed the sense of unreal and realistic shopping in the virtual world, including Wang Wei himself, who can't help but praise the Vtore designer for being a genius every time he puts down his helmet.
With such a unique advantage, it is better to say that Jiang Chen is not interested in logistics, which is strange.
After a moment of silence, Wang Wei said in a deep voice.
"Tomorrow I will personally go to Xinguo, and if I can meet Jiang Chen, I will personally convince him. ”
"No, he estimates that he will come to Xiangjiang tomorrow. Li Dongqi sighed and said.
Hearing this, Wang Wei was stunned for a moment, and his brows gradually twisted.
Now it's a little tricky.
……
While SF Express felt that it was difficult to do, Jiang Chen actually felt that it was difficult to do, otherwise he would not have come to China in person.
The company selected by Xia Shiyu is Shentong, and several major shareholders expressed satisfaction with the proposal of the Future People Group to buy a 51% stake in Shentong Company for $1.7 billion at an 11% premium.
Not to mention anything else, even if they rely on their resources on VTORE to tilt a little to Shentong Express, the shares in their hands will be more than double the value of the current value, not to mention that the Future People Group will also acquire it at a premium of 11%!
As long as a part of the stock is relinquished, the remaining stock can be more valuable, and such a good thing will be rejected by a fool.
But having said that, when it came to the final part of the acquisition, something went wrong.
Just when he was about to finish signing, several shareholders who had agreed to sell their shares temporarily changed their minds and refused to sell their shares. No matter how much the salesman sent by the Future People Group tried to persuade him, it was useless.
When the Future People Group asked the reason, it turned out that it was not that these shareholders did not want to make a move, but that the government began to intervene.
This made Jiang Chen a little unexpected, but when Xia Shiyu heard the news, he showed such an expression.
With regard to mutual mergers and acquisitions between small companies, the government's attitude is often to follow the standard of "following the laws of market economy". However, when it comes to large companies, the government is much more cautious.
There is a typical case here, that is, Coca-Cola's acquisition of Huiyuan Juice Group in O9 was rejected by the Ministry of Commerce in the name of anti-monopoly. This is not unique to China, where Huawei's repeated setbacks in the U.S. can be largely attributed to the fact that the U.S. government has been systematically blocking the company's acquisition of U.S. assets since O8. As a result, Huawei has repeatedly suffered setbacks in entering the U.S. telecommunications industry.
It has to be pointed out here that if the Future People Group had been registered in Shanghai, instead of a small country in the Western Pacific that had no international influence and was worth wooing, perhaps the Phantom Helmet would not have had the opportunity to be listed in the United States from the beginning.
Originally, Jiang Chen hoped that the Liu family could help in this matter, but Old Man Liu's answer left him speechless.
The Liu family does have some energy above, but this matter is not something he can decide alone, after all, they are not the only ones in the political power of the republic. The government is wary of too much involvement in the Future People Group, and it is not very interested in the drone logistics.
Cutting 40,000 jobs to 50,000 may seem tempting to other companies, but from the government's standpoint, isn't that lowering the employment rate?
Many times it is not that you are advanced and you are going to be introduced, unless you can't live without you.
For example, quantum communication satellites have not yet opened up the Chinese market, because they may have an impact on the "three giants of telecommunications" that monopolize the market.
"When our Liu family held a meeting, we voted against the proposal to intervene in the acquisition, and I can't help you much in this matter. Well, I can tell you the bottom line in this area. At the end of the call, the old god Liu Xiangguo smiled on the ground.
"Oh, what is it?" Jiang Chen asked very dryly.
You get so much money every year, you should do something, right?
"Equity," Liu Xiangguo gave an abstract word, "the Future People Group can open up the market, but it can't monopolize this market, you know what I mean, right? If you want to buy Shentong, you can only hold 30 percent of the shares, and this is the bottom line given by the above discussion." Or, you start from scratch as a logistics business. ”
In the end, the old man's tone was a little meaningful.
"What about drones?" this is the question Jiang Chen is most concerned about.
"Drone...... Of course, we still hope that you can cooperate with domestic logistics providers. After all, this drone technology is very interesting!"
The first half of the sentence is quite clear, and Huaguo will not make a fuss about the upcoming drone management bill, but the second half of the sentence is a little unclear.
But since he had already asked the answer, Jiang Chen didn't continue to greet this old guy. Just before hanging up the phone, he suddenly thought of something, and then asked another question.
"Speaking of which, have you ever heard of an organization called Freemasonry?"
His eyes narrowed a slit, Liu Xiangguo frowned slightly, and his tone became a little unpredictable.
"Freemasons, how did you get involved with those people?"
"It's just that they found me unilaterally. ”
"Heh, then you have a very troublesome opponent," Liu Xiangguo smiled a little gloatingly, "How about it? Do you want to go back to China? They can't afford to make any waves in China." ”
"I'm better excused, I'm pretty comfortable outside. ”
After hanging up the phone, he immediately found Xia Shiyu. The two exchanged views with each other.
And the answer is clear.
The profits of the logistics market are quite huge, and the scale of the logistics industry has grown exponentially since about 1o years. In 2o15, the annual business volume has exceeded 2oo billion pieces, and the total revenue of the industry has reached 2ooo billion yuan.
If it works well, the market on the Huaguo side alone can bring tens of billions of profits to the Future People Group every year!
Although there are some troubles in the policy, it is not impossible to solve them.
If you can't anal from the front, then let's go around from the side!(To be continued.) )8
