Chapter 380: Three World-Class Acquisitions

In 2010, when the real estate industry of Huayin Consortium reached its peak, in the list of the top 30 real estate companies in China, the real estate companies controlled by Huayin Consortium accounted for exactly 10, and there were 4 in the top 10. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

From 2007 to 2011, automobiles, cables, electrical equipment, construction machinery, steel, iron ore, oil and gas, dairy farming, home appliances, banking, insurance, movies, smart phones, panels, chips, ...... Various industries are also growing at a rapid pace across the board.

The large team of 29 joint partners and 458 senior partners of Huayin Consortium can be called China's dream team in various industrial fields, and the senior partners recruited from overseas are also the best candidates that Chinese capital can recruit.

The team's operational ability and profitability skills should claim to be the second in Asia, and no one dares to call it the first.

But in 2011, it was obvious to everyone that it was difficult to make money, and the profitability of the real economy was significantly worse than in the previous two years.

Doing business is the same as natural selection, it must change with the change of the general environment, you should hibernate, you have to hibernate, you will not hibernate, then you must have other skills, otherwise you will freeze to death and starve to death.

Throughout 2011, the Huayin consortium quickly entered a period of contraction, making major adjustments in the shareholding structure, and rapidly withdrawing capital from low-tech, low-profit and long-term poor industries.

Sunshine cable was the first to be sold, and the electric vehicle industry was sold, which had no technical content, and was sold at a good market value.

Iron and steel and iron ore were sold, while the shares of FMG Resources Group and Huateng Heavy Industries were slowly reduced.

The real estate companies of the entire Huayin consortium were shrunk to 4 by Xu Teng - Wanbo Group, Jiangtai Group, Huateng Land, and Sunshine Group, and the land reserves of third- and fourth-tier cities were cut by 1/3.

The majority of the shares of Yongle Electric Appliance Group were sold to Zhongrun Group.

Even Huatai Securities, the source of the rise of the entire Huayin consortium, which Mr. Xu wanted to keep, was merged, merging into Huaxia Securities by Xu Teng, and Huatai Insurance was also merged into Huaxia Insurance.

……

2011 was the busiest year for Xu Teng and the entire Huayin consortium, the most desperate year, not desperate expansion, but desperate contraction, drastic changes to the consortium structure, the total number of subordinate enterprises of the entire consortium was greatly reduced by half, the total number of employees of the consortium was reduced by 1/3, and 218,000 employees were cut by the sale of Huatai Iron and Steel Group, Sunshine Cable Company and other low-tech industries alone.

This timely and rapid contraction allowed Xu Teng to free up a lot of funds in his hands, which was enough to deal with the acquisitions of Prima and Syngenta, and adding a Ford group was not a big deal.

Therefore, Xu Teng neither supports nor opposes Liu Junsheng's idea of buying Ford Group, his attitude is very simple, as long as you people can negotiate a price that he has no reason to refuse, and then come up with a reasonable and suitable restructuring plan, he will approve the transaction.

He handed over this matter to Liu Junsheng and Lu Zhifeng.

As for the merger and acquisition deal between Huateng Precision Group and Prima Group, in May 2012, the EU still did not pass, where repeated arguments, repeated arrogance, and fear that the Chinese would steal the technology of old Europe.

Xu Teng is definitely worthy of being the third head of state, and his grasp of the statistics and analysis of global economic data is clearer than that of many central banks in the G20, so much so that the domestic central mother also has to exchange data with him, and a member will be sent every month to interview Xu Teng alone.

He has been carefully watching Italy's economic data, and from March 2010 to May 2012, the non-performing loan ratio of Italian banks increased by at least 7 points, from 20 points to 30%, which is equivalent to saying that for every three loans borrowed by Italian banks, one of them defaulted and could not be repaid.

It's not a matter of joking, it's a matter of life and death.

Therefore, Xu Teng is not in a hurry, it is Italy in a hurry.

The EU certainly does not want to approve and is unwilling to continue to be stolen by the Chinese, and hopes are pinned on the United States to come forward, because Prima Group's machine tools are still used in the military industry, especially in the aviation field, which can be called the top laser cutting and laser processing technology in Europe, and Rolls-Royce is one of Prima Group's major customers.

The United States is very strange, so it is silent.

The EU is convinced that the deal has the full support of the Chinese government, and is unwilling to veto it, so it can only drag it out.

Prima Group and the Italian government are already in a hurry to hang themselves, and if there is no buyer, it will be okay, only the government can find a way not to let Prima Group go bankrupt, forcing banks to borrow funds to plug the hole, and some buyers are not going to sell quickly!

As a result, the turtle king's side won first.

Among the joint partners of the Huayin Consortium, Chen Yongnian, the turtle king, has a limited level and his status is not high, because of his deep qualifications, he can control the executives recruited from all over the world of Yongtai Chemical Group.

After all, this old thing is still very skillful in the field of being a person, and often inadvertently reveals some secrets of the Xu family, reveals some old things about being an educated youth with Xu's mother, and reveals some of his connections in the top three rows in China.

The turtle king has two very powerful advantages, one is to be able to endure, the other is very yin, and the negotiation with Syngenta Group, he talked for two years, and finally seized the best opportunity to reach a deal at a "sky-high price" of 33 billion US dollars.

Syngenta's share price has been on a back-and-forth trajectory for the past two years, finally reaching a peak this year, rising from a low of $26 in October 2008 to $60.4 per share.

For Syngenta's board of directors and large shareholders, there is a perception that the price has peaked and could fall at any time.

The $33 billion "sky-high price" that set a record for overseas mergers and acquisitions of Chinese companies, 70% is cash, 30% is share swaps, and after Yongtai Chemical's acquisition of Syngenta, Syngenta's shareholders will hold 35% of Yongtai Chemical's equity.

It's a very good deal for both parties, with Yongtai Chemical's earning power and Syngenta's long-term profitability on par, and Syngenta's pesticide chemical technology and GMO technology, which Yongtai Chemical desperately needs.

Due to the relatively conservative openness to genetically modified seeds in China, the long-term investment of the Huayin Consortium in the field of genetically modified seeds has not been effectively realized into profits, and through the merger with Syngenta, these genetically modified technologies can be effectively realized.

With the gradual opening of the domestic GMO market, the Huayin Consortium and Syngenta can also take advantage of their local advantages to gain first-mover opportunities.

After two years of negotiations, the two sides finally signed a transaction agreement at the end of May 2012 and began to submit approval for mergers to China, Switzerland, the European Union and the United States.

Of course, whether it is Sinochem or other giants in the international chemical, seed, and pesticide industries, they will find ways to prevent the transaction, and various domestic anti-GMO forces will also roar, unite a group of old experts, old leaders, and jointly oppose it to the central government.

After this news came out, there was a lot of discussion about this matter at home and abroad.

The ancients said that good things come in pairs.

As a result, the news of Yongtai Chemical's acquisition of Syngenta has not subsided in China, and when it is still boiling, the EU suddenly passed the approval of Huateng Seiko's acquisition of Prima Group - a lot of good things, this matter has been grinding for a long time in the EU, and the messy things that have been experienced in the middle, and the energy and manpower invested by all parties can not be explained clearly in a few words.

In fact, the leading forces of the EU are still Germany, France, Britain and Italy, and Germany has been the main target of acquisitions by Chinese capital over the years, so it is a little reluctant to do so...... To put it simply, if you buy a German machine tool company, it thinks you are annoyed, and if you don't buy a German machine tool company, when you go to buy an Italian machine tool company, it feels threatened to itself.

Again, this slut is hypocritical!

At this time, it can reflect that Xu Teng, the third head of state, has the advantage of deep connections at the European political level, he can call Aunt Mo in person, and say unmistakably that everyone else agrees, just wait for you, whether you oppose it or support it, give a happy reply.

After dragging on for so long, the EU has basically understood that the United States is silent and does not object, which means that Xu Teng, the third head of state, has already dealt with it, no matter what kind of deal is behind the scenes, this matter must be something that the White House is unwilling to explicitly oppose it, and it is more expected that the EU itself will carry the banner of anti-China and fight for the Western world dominated by white skins.

In this regard, the old European can only say, carry your sister.

These are all jokes, behind the scenes of the acquisition of Prima Group by the Huayin Consortium, all kinds of things, almost allowing Xu Teng to write a 300,000-word memoir.

It is not easy for Chinese investors to go global, especially with such world-class acquisitions.

This matter, China and the United States have passed the approval, with the EU finally passed the approval, this is a certainty, Japan, South Korea, ASEAN these markets, because Huateng Seiko and Prima combined, completely do not meet the anti-monopoly standard line, approval is just a formality.

As for the acquisition of Syngenta by the Huayin Consortium, with the operational capabilities of the Huayin Consortium, the probability of accidents is also very low, and the difficulty of approval is much easier than that of Prima.

This is Double Happiness, two world-class acquisitions.

The overall reaction of the global capital market is still relatively calm, after all, the total market value of all the listed companies controlled by the Huayin consortium is as high as 1.6 trillion US dollars, and it is not a big deal to spend 50 billion US dollars to carry out two cross-border acquisitions.

Everyone thinks that the Huayin Consortium should be like this this year, it is already very arrogant, and it can't be arrogant anymore, and it will take Prima and Syngenta, the two world-class Fortune 500 giants, into the bag, and digest and integrate it.

No one expected that in mid-July 2012, less than 50 days after the signing of the acquisition agreement between Huayin Consortium and Syngenta, Huateng Automobile Group and Ford Group reached a $37 billion merger and acquisition agreement.

This is a shot at almost everyone, as Xu Teng previously estimated, for Americans, this is like a punch to the heart, and the proudest position of Americans has been beaten.

The three consecutive world-class acquisitions of the Huayin Consortium in 2012 have caused an uproar in the global media, public opinion and capital circles.

Everyone has to ask the question, how much money does the Huayin Consortium have?

From BBC to CNN, even to CCTV, no matter which station you turn on, there are hosts who are discussing this issue with experts in a serious, worried, and surprised manner.

How much money does the Huayin Consortium have, and how much money does Xu Teng have?

Coming back from the future world?

Superpowers?

Where did you get all this money?

Many people even think of NBC's popular American drama "Heroes" a few years ago, in which a villain boss has the superpower to turn any kind of metal into gold.

In China, there is only one sentence on the Internet, which has been repeatedly disseminated and repeatedly liked-the third head is so domineering!

Domineering, my president!

In this midsummer season in July 2012, Xu Teng was actually very calm, and he has maintained the rhythm of his life and work in Jiangzhou, for him, life in Jiangzhou is to go upstairs and downstairs.

He spends most of his time in his Huateng Science and Technology Building, only in the evening, or when it rains, he and his wife will stroll around the nearby Yangtze University campus, holding hands, and enjoying the last moments of youth and elegance.

The nearby Tesco supermarket Emerald Lake store is also a place where they often take their daughters to go, sometimes eating a pizza at KFC or Pizza Hut downstairs, which is not particularly delicious, just to enjoy an ordinary life, so that the children do not get too out of the world.

In this era of smartphones and the popularization of the Internet, there are often people who follow and take pictures, even boldly with Xu Teng and Xia Li, which are widely circulated on the Internet.

So, someone on the Internet made a joke that if the waiter snubbed the domineering president, the president would say, come, call your chairman over, I will buy your company, and then fire you.

The chairman came and said to the domineering president, boss, you forgot, you acquired it last year, and it is already one of your 5,000 subsidiaries.

Morning.

Continue.

Xu Teng went downstairs from the elevator at 8:30, and with the dinging sound, more than a dozen senior employees waiting outside the elevator door followed Xu Teng all the way, and all the employees were busy.

After a 30-minute morning meeting in the conference room, all employees, more than half of whom start at 8 a.m. and work until 12 p.m., start at 8 a.m. and work until 12 p.m.

9:05 a.m.

Xu Teng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of his office, looking at the Jiangzhou city in the distance, sipping a glass of lemon ice soda, and only after a few minutes did he start browsing the global news and latest economic data compiled by Dr. Lu.

On the other side of the world, the wave of violent revolution that once swept the entire Arab world finally slowly dissipated, leaving only Syria, Libya, and Yemen, three war-torn areas that seem to never stop, and in Iraq, ISIS has finally started a rapid rise, and the participation of various pre-Saddam era military personnel has made this organization rapidly stronger.

If you think Syria is the end of the world at this time, then you think about Nigeria's 175 million people to understand what real horror is.

A few months ago, Dr. Lu made a new round of projection update, predicting that by 2070, the world will have a population of 10.7 billion, of which one-third may be in countries with severe food shortages, the Muslim population will exceed 3.5 billion, and five countries in Europe will become Muslim countries in the traditional sense according to Muslim cultural legislation.

The U.S. will be more than 25 percent black, the Hispanic population will be more than 54 percent, and the national lingua franca will become Spanish.

If the United States stopped exporting cheap, heavily subsidized food, 37 million people would starve to death in three months.

Of course, Xu Teng knows that Dr. Lu's prediction model and calculation rules are based on scientific laws, but he still hopes that all this will not happen, and the whole world is getting worse day by day.

Although, his wealth is also increasing day by day

After three years of testing, Dr. Xu Teng finally opened up his authority, allowing Dr. Lu to manipulate the accounts of two family overseas funds within a certain range and operate freely in the international financial market.

$1,173,435.9 million.

This is The-ShunFamliy's latest wealth data, which is normal, with the combined stake of The-ShunFamliy in the world's top 10 tech companies exceeding $850 billion.

All market capitalization, minus family debt, gives the final figure of $1,173.4 billion.

The Fed's unlimited QE is clearly contributing more than the family's shrewd investments and financial management, and in The-ShunFamliy's account, hundreds of billions of dollars of international liquidity are being withdrawn from investments in global gold assets, taking advantage of the war in Syria and the chaos in the Middle East to intervene in the oil market and push oil prices up and make them more volatile.

However, more dollars have nowhere to go, and there is no more suitable investment hotspot in the world, so it can only be entrusted to AIG and several other international investment banks to flow in the market of financial derivatives.

As long as your money is on Wall Street, it will definitely increase in value, especially for clients like The-ShunFamliy, who are sure to get the highest priority investment commitments.

Therefore, when everyone at home and abroad is marveling at how much money the Huayin Consortium has, and marveling at the three world-class acquisitions of the Huayin Consortium before July 2012, Xu Teng's feeling is actually very flat, just a little private money from the third head of state.

After roughly browsing through today's news, family and consortium data, Xu Teng was a little tired, took a break, and then asked Dr. Lu to read the summary information of the primary industrial group.

"Let's pick the key points!" Xu Teng said a habitual instruction, according to the 47 principles he set, Dr. Lu will select the more important part from the hundreds of thousands of consortium summary information, so that he can always maintain a state of omniscience.

This information comes from a wide range of sources, including work reports from each primary industry group and independent subsidiary, as well as individual laboratories, as well as updates from more than 400 NGOs sponsored by the Huayin Consortium and The-ShunFamliy around the world.

The rules of the Third Führer are very simple, take my money, record everything you do, it is my right to look at it or not, and it is your basic duty to record according to the standard format.

In the office, a slightly cool breeze blows from afar, as if in the mountains.

Xu Teng sent a cup of tea, a simple glass, green tea leaves, exuding a fresh aroma in the hot water.

After another 20 minutes.

Around 10 a.m., he would have a video conference with the executives of a subsidiary, which could be downstairs, in Jiangzhou, in the Deep State, in the United States, or in Paris.

At 14 o'clock in the afternoon, he will meet with a joint partner to discuss various issues of the subordinate first-level industrial group for which the other party is responsible, or meet with the ambassador of a certain country and the chairman and president of other groups to discuss new cooperation and projects.

Starting at 16 o'clock in the afternoon, after his itinerary for today was completed, he returned to the study at home to think alone and take a look at new information that was not directly related to the Huayin Consortium.

This kind of life, from May 2011 to the present, has been repeating day after day, mechanical, precise, elegant, and boring, and he, the chairman of the Huayin Foundation, has led the consortium to evolve in this way.

If the Huayin Consortium is a group of deep-sea giant sharks, then they have new evolutions and new changes every day, constantly adapting to the environment, constantly hunting for larger or smaller prey, maintaining their size and more room for development.

This is the reason why the world has begun to breed a kind of Huayin threat theory, China in 2012 is already very threatening, and it has such a group of behemoths, bloody predators, how can it not make other countries more worried.

Of course, this "other" country mainly refers to the United States, but also to Japan, and as for India, those netizens and political elites really think too much.

The traditionally unreliable American Christian Monitor recently compiled a sensational news story claiming that the Huayin consortium was a deliberate creation of China's top political leaders, and that it was in fact state-owned capital, manipulated by China's top executives, to buy Syngenta and Prima on behalf of the Chinese government.

You see, they are all scared of this virtue.

This news spread all over the world, and even some military forums in China frantically reprinted it, making all kinds of sensational slogans, and Indian netizens believed it even more.

Some netizens said that it is time to boycott all the products of the Huayin Consortium, they are buying the best equipment for the Chinese army to produce weapons, and now it is time to make them realize our strength.

I'm scared.

It is difficult to say in other countries, 70% of India's smartphones are using Huateng Electronics Group's Huasi and Storm series low-end chips.

You think, 5 of the top 10 smartphone sales in the world are well-known Huateng series, and 3 are inextricably linked with the Huayin consortium, such as Apple.

In the CPU chip market for PC computers, half of AMD's shipments come from Huatong Chip, a joint venture between Huateng and AMD, accounting for 17% of global X86 architecture chip shipments.

It seems that every day, the Huayin consortium is getting stronger.

If you want to know the reason, Xu Teng can tell you that my employees are more diligent than you, my R&D personnel are smarter than you, my executives are more active than you, and my corporate mechanism is more flexible and modern than you.

In this way, the human factor dominates the cause.

In the era of global information technology, at least in the high-tech industry, the salaries of R&D personnel and executives around the world are similar, but in China, the difference between an annual salary of one million and $150,000 a year in the United States is completely different, and the level of employee contribution is also completely different.

Taiwan has cultivated a lot of outstanding talents for so many years, even if it is TSMC, Huateng Electronics Group is still not soft, digging dozens, panels and packaging and testing fields, Wanwan 5 Tigers are about to be dug up talents.

Now Wanwan IT industry, can mix food is foundry industry, especially in the past two years of jumping incidents continue Haihong Group, Haihong Group's main business is now for Apple and Huateng OEM, the factory in Jiangzhou Xijiang District is mainly for Huateng Electronics Group OEM, still jumped several.

Just jumped one yesterday.

Another human life!

The capitalist Xu Teng is going to meet with this afternoon is Mr. Guo of Haihong Group, and the itinerary he made a few weeks ago is mainly to talk about this matter, and the other is to talk about the popularization of industrial robots.

At present, there are only 3 brands in the world that can really make high-end mobile phones, and there are only 3 brands that can sell them, Apple, Samsung, and Huateng, of course, Huateng is mainly concentrated in the mid-range, and the squeeze on Samsung is very strong.

In fact, Huateng and Apple's procurement systems are basically the same, one is mainly in the mid-range, taking into account the high-end, and the other is mainly high-end, taking into account the mid-end, and the pinching strategy of Samsung is obvious.

All three companies also have a common feature - they all use their own chips.

10 o'clock sharp.

The enemy of the turtle king Chen Yongnian in his life, the one who has never really reconciled...... Chen Anbang, led four senior partners, entered Xu Teng's office on time.

Except for Chen Anbang, the other four did not dare to sit down in a hurry.

The entire Huayin consortium has shrunk and shrunk, and there are still 2.2 million employees, 45% of whom have higher education degrees, and the penetration rate of industrial machinery in the entire consortium has reached the average standard of large and medium-sized enterprises in South Korea...... There is no need to compete with Hyundai, LG, Samsung, and the cost of Chinese workers is not so high.

With 2.2 million employees, there are only 458 senior partners in total.

It can be seen from this that the senior partner means in the entire system of the Huayin Consortium, but compared with the joint partner, it is still far from the same, because Xu Teng is only one of the joint partners.

If Xu Teng is at the ministerial level, Chen Anbang is at the deputy ministerial level, and of course he is qualified to sit down on his own.

In fact, with Chen Anbang's level, the number of times he can see Xu Teng is only about ten times a year, and today he specially brought a small gift, just returned from Central America, and brought a box of Guatemalan coffee beans for Xu Teng.

"Thankfully. Xu Teng nodded in thanks, and didn't deliberately look at the four senior partners behind Chen Anbang, but just ordered, "Sit down." ”

"Thank you, Chairman. A senior president, a vice chairman, and two business unit CEOs, all in their fifties, stood at the top business elites in China's real estate and construction engineering fields, and sat down at their desks with gratitude.

Wait for the young and beautiful waitress to bring hot tea to everyone.

Chen Anbang took out the super tablet he carried with him every day, retrieved the documents, and handed them to Xu Teng, "There are 23 small hydropower station projects in Central America that have officially started construction, and the total number of them is 55, and they all have the conditions for preliminary construction preparations." The largest hydropower stations are shared equally with several other power companies, and I also met with a few project leaders over there, and the relationship between us is still good. Now it is the second phase of the expansion project of the Port of Limon in Costa Rica, and we are still in the preliminary preparations, and the middle port has been fully launched. Because our manpower is still relatively tight compared to their state-owned enterprises. ”

"What about that port project and pipeline in Nigeria?" Xu Teng read the progress information of the small hydropower project in Central America, put the tablet aside, and began to transfer data.

For the Huayin Consortium, the confidentiality of information is very important.

Although with the technical strength of the IT industry of the Huayin Consortium, it is not a big problem to withstand the prism attack, but there are not afraid of 10,000 in this world, and the most afraid is in case, Chen Anbang has been inspecting Central America for two months, and the level of contact and the information recorded are not simple.

Not to mention anything else, with the scale of business investment in Central America by the Huayin Consortium and several other central enterprises, it is basically not difficult to extinguish the Gulf and Bay relations in Central America.

The US imperialists will inevitably be very concerned about this kind of thing, and they will always keep an eye on China's every move in their own back garden.

"The situation in Nigeria is more complicated, the situation is not optimistic, the country is so bad, the greed is crazy, their president only received a few million dollars, and the next deputy minister in charge of oil pipelines asked me for a kickback of 40 million dollars as soon as he opened his mouth. I can only stop the project for a moment now and let their ruling coalition discuss it internally. Chen Anbang mainly reported this matter to Xu Teng, and the money must not be given, but this project is more important to the FMG Resources Group and the country, and during his ten days in Nigeria, the ambassador met with him four times, and each time he wanted to discuss this issue.

In the past, Jiang Ningyuan always said that Chen Anbang was a demonic talent in Jianghuai Province.

Where is the demon?

This person's style is not only to take the most high-end internationalization road, but also to calmly face all kinds of black methods, even if there are hundreds of projects started at the same time, problems everywhere, all kinds of demons and monsters, this person can be stable and do his own things in an orderly manner.

Chen Anbang particularly admired Eisenhower's four rules, and he clearly distinguished what was urgent but not important, and what was not urgent but important.

Wanbo Group, Asia's largest real estate company and the world's 11th largest comprehensive international contractor, is a perfect stage for Chen Anbang.

Where there is weakness, there is strength.

Among the world's international engineering contractors, Wanbo ranked 11th after CCCC, and its engineering business turnover in 2011 was almost the same, but its net profit was 1.4 times that of its rivals, 40% more profit.

In addition to the operation model, the Group uses the BOT model more to obtain more lucrative long-term returns, and the Group is also going faster on the road of internationalization, spending a lot of effort to study the industry giants such as the Spanish ACS Group and the German HAG Group, absorbing the excellence of each other, and accelerating self-upgrading and reform.

Of course, Chen Anbang still has a lot of tricks, for example, he has a very mature system for recruiting cheap labor in major project countries, and he has spent a lot of thought and thought, from recruitment to training, there is a complete set of perfect systems.

Even in a notorious place like Indonesia, he can find a way to find local migrant workers who are both obedient and easy to use, and meet the local investment requirements.

"I'll figure out what to do in Nigeria. "Xu Teng actually doesn't have any good way, just change a deputy minister in charge of affairs over there, this kind of thing, Chen Anbang can barely do it, but it's not as easy as Xu Teng.

The third head, this is not in vain.

Xu Teng doesn't have any rules for not interfering in internal affairs, blocking his way, that's two words...... Replace it, of course it can't be killed, he's not a CIA, it's not so black.

Spending millions of dollars to replace a person is a small matter, and spending tens of thousands of dollars to kill a person and make it an accidental death is a big deal.

Of course, Xu Teng still knows a few such companies, and he will not do it unless he has to.

If Kennedy hadn't pushed people too hard, Wall Street wouldn't have killed him, right?

Besides, if you really want to make this decision, Xu Teng will not order it personally, and even Chen Anbang will not give it personally, there will always be a suitable henchman to deal with it.

If he had to kill the other party, Chen Anbang would not come to Xu Teng to report.

Then again, killing dozens of people for an oil pipeline is a daily occurrence on that magical continent of Africa.

The deputy minister's $40 million is not the general package price, as long as the one-time payment is in place, it has nothing to do with how many people will be killed in the future.

Xu Teng thought about it and sighed, he didn't have anything to tell Chen Anbang, just instructed, "Over there in ASEAN, you still have to go a few more times in the past two years." ”

"By the way, the development trend of the domestic real estate industry, is there any new change in the prediction of the consortium?" Chen Anbang asked more, he and Xu Teng's feelings are similar, the general contracting projects around the world, investing in real estate projects, the real most profitable place is still in China.

Of course, the domestic competition is also too strong.

Real estate is still a relatively easy money-making business.

"There is no change for the time being, the third and fourth-tier cities have been surplus, the first and second-tier cities tend to be saturated in the short term, there are good projects to do, there are no good projects and don't fight hard, it is not cost-effective to get land at a high price in the past two years. Xu Teng can only repeat the same old tune, and say it again.

"Okay, then I'll leave first, the chairman doesn't need to send it, and when the annual meeting comes, I'll accompany the chairman to have a few drinks." Chen Anbang got up and said goodbye and led the team to leave.

Xu Teng must still send it, at least out of the chairman's office.

Chen Anbang is one of the best entrepreneurs in China, as long as the platform is suitable, his Wanbo Group is based on Vanke Real Estate and Dongchen Construction, although it is hard and tired, the actual profitability is still very strong, the profits of the real estate industry are still rich, ranking in the forefront of domestic real estate companies, and the net profit and profitability of the construction business are also the best in the country.

It is precisely because of such joint partners, and there are more than 20 of them, plus hundreds of the top professional managers in China, to form the dream team of various industrial groups, that the Huayin Consortium can have the scale it has today.

Today is not Monday, Xu Teng's work is relatively easy, after the meeting with Chen Anbang, if there is no new notice from Han Dai's side, he has nothing special to deal with until 2 o'clock in the afternoon.

"Chairman, when will you reply?" Dr. Lu's voice sounded in the office, reminding Xu Teng that there was still a small matter to deal with.

"Now, take out the contents of that letter, and I'll read it again!" Xu Teng didn't forget, he was just still thinking about how to reply.

It's a trifle.

During this time, the information about the Huayin Consortium on the Internet has been very hot, and suddenly a high school girl wrote a letter, published under the title of "A Letter to Mr. Xu Teng, Chairman of the Huayin Consortium", which was initially just posted in a place like Tieba, and then someone sent it to the Tianya community, which was a little hot all of a sudden.

This is a matter of a few weeks, and many people should know about it, but they didn't tell Xu Teng, and this is not within the scope of Dr. Lu's key rules for collecting network information, and it wasn't until yesterday that Liu Junsheng talked about it in an email to Xu Teng, and Xu Teng went through the letter.

Liu Junsheng has been in the United States for the past few months, and the reason why he has paid attention to this matter is entirely because this matter is related to Huatai Iron and Steel Group.

This high school girl is obviously a post-90s generation, and she should belong to a good girl with good grades in liberal arts, I don't know what the situation is, I admire Xu Teng more, and her father is a workshop director of Huatai Iron and Steel Group.

Her father was always very hard, often working overtime, always coming home after 10 o'clock in the evening, and leaving before dawn in the morning, but she never complained, because she felt that her father was very proud to work in a company affiliated with the Huayin Foundation.

Her father used to work in a state-owned iron and steel company, and only went to Huatai Iron and Steel Group in 04 years, and he was particularly attentive to this job.

It's just that during this time, her father's mood suddenly deteriorated a lot, and she heard her mother say that the salary and bonus were not as good as before, and many of the things she had promised were gone.

Only then did she know that Huatai Iron and Steel Group had become a subsidiary of Baosteel Group.

She knew that Baosteel was also a good company, but she heard her father say that Baosteel and Huatai Iron and Steel were different in that they had two establishments, one was the establishment of state-owned enterprises and the other was the establishment of labor workers, and the income of employees of state-owned enterprises was high and the income of labor workers was low.

After Huatai Iron and Steel Group was acquired, her father was a laborer, and except for a few leaders, everyone else in the whole factory was laborer, and the treatment was not as good as before.

She couldn't understand why Baosteel Group had a state-owned enterprise establishment and a labor service establishment.

She couldn't understand it, because her father said that the efficiency of Huatai Iron and Steel Group has always been very good, and it has made a lot of money for the big boss, and everyone doesn't understand why the big boss wants to sell the business.

She couldn't understand why Xu Teng, the big boss, had banned the partnership establishment that he had promised before, and why did his father's junior partner qualification disappear?

The reason why Liu Junsheng saw this post was because he couldn't let go of Huatai Steel, so he would search for the news and see the news if he had nothing to do, and after reading it, he was very uncomfortable, so he passed it to Xu Teng, so that Xu Teng was not comfortable once.

After reading this letter, Xu Teng was of course really uncomfortable, and he felt a lot of emotion and decided to reply.

However, Xu Teng didn't know where to start with a thousand words.

It just so happened that there weren't too many things to deal with today, so Xu Teng took a moment to slowly ponder the reply, and after thinking about it sentence by sentence, he wrote a "reply to the letter written to me".

First of all, he definitely wanted to apologize.

All things, all the mistakes, all the unhappiness of everyone, all came from his decisions.

He thanked all the employees of Huatai Steel Group for their contributions to the company, but like other companies that were sold, he decided to sell them for a reason.

In 2011, the country's steel production capacity has reached 700 million tons, which is a statistical range, and the number concealed by private companies and local governments alone exceeds 120 million tons, which is close to 50% of the world's steel production capacity.

Since 2008, 95% of the global anti-dumping investigations on the steel industry have been directed at the Chinese steel industry.

At the same time, the scattered layout of China's iron and steel industry, the situation of scattered production capacity and backwardness is also a problem that is difficult to change.

His principle has never been compromised, either to be the first and second in the country and set off towards the ranks of the global leaders, or to give up and let others do it, and Huatai Iron and Steel Group can only give up.

Making money is very important, but for the Huayin Consortium, it is more important to live well with a proud attitude than the profits in front of you, after all, shopping malls are like battlefields, full of dangers, and if you can't do the best, you will often be eliminated sooner or later.

Although the total amount of the Huayin consortium is large, it is still a catch-up in the global market in many industries, with a worrying position, insufficient technology, and precarious viability, and is not as optimistic as most people expected.

He also did not rule out that if the existing industrial companies in the Huayin Consortium could not strive to become the world's top competitors within 10 years, the possibility of transferring them to other stronger companies would happen at any time.

The reason why he sold Huatai Steel to Baosteel is precisely because he believes that Baosteel is one of the very few state-owned group companies that has the opportunity to survive until the last moment in the steel industry, and has the best technology, the strongest competitiveness and viability in the domestic steel industry.

He apologized for Baosteel's state-owned enterprise staff and labor staff, which was a mistake in the negotiation process and failed to obtain due treatment and status for Huatai Steel's employees.

He also truthfully told the high school girl that when the junior partner terminates the partnership agreement, there will definitely be a dividend right compensation agreement, which is the right of all partners to have rights.

At the end of the letter, he still wants to thank the girl's father for his dedication and support, and ask her to send greetings, but like every employee he has hurt, even he is just a little stronger ant on this planet, in order to survive, in order to protect more partners and employees, his reason must overcome emotion every time.

Maybe one day, you will become an entrepreneur and start your own business and era.

At that time, you will understand that as the person in charge of the enterprise, the last mistake you can make is to be optimistic, if we want to be the best entrepreneurs, no matter when, no matter what the situation, we must be convinced of the iron law of a market economy, maybe tomorrow, we will encounter unpredictable suffering and suffering.

We can predict the storm, but we never know who will be the boat that sank in the storm.

I hope you can grow up and understand my feelings, but with someone like me, a post-80s "big brother" who is older than you, think about how I was a superb school grass a few years ago, but now I have to face the end of my youth...... On the special day of approaching thirty, I am still a little at a loss, I don't know how to educate my children, and I hope you can grow up slowly, even if there are too many things you don't understand when you are on campus.

Life is like this, the more people who know, the more pain they have to endure.

Finally, thank you again for your father's hard work, whether he is a member of the Huayin Consortium or a former Huayin person, diligence is always our most important quality, your father should be much older than me, but I am convinced that he still has enough time to write a better life again.

AND, I really hope that one day, my daughter, who always makes me doubt my life, can be as sincere, kind, compassionate, sensible, and clear as you.

Apologies and greetings again.

Xu Teng. (To be continued.) )
