It wasn't until local time, a little after 12 o'clock at night, that Liu Junsheng arrived at the hotel and came with Li Yifei. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 infoExcept for an occasional video call, Xu Teng and Liu Junsheng haven't seen each other for a long time, so they hugged and patted their shoulders happily.

With college classmates like Liu Junsheng present, Xu Teng would always be more casual, sitting directly on the edge of the desk, and asking Liu Junsheng how his body was during his time in the United States.

"The body is very good, at least I don't need crutches or canes. Liu Junsheng felt palpitations every time he thought of the car accident, but he still laughed with Xu Teng, and he seemed very relaxed.

"That's good. Of course, Xu Teng has read Liu Junsheng's recent physical examination report, which is still good, but it can only be said to be healthy, and it is definitely not comparable to the previous state of 1,000 meters and 3 minutes and 30 seconds.

"What about Xia Li? Before I came, I heard Jian Chen say that she came with you, won't she still have to celebrate the New Year in Europe this year?" Liu Junsheng has been busy in the United States for a whole year, and this time he flew to Europe to visit Audi, and he will go back to Jiangzhou directly.

After all, there are still ten days to go before the New Year.

Chinese must be able to go home early at this time period, and they must go home early.

"She didn't go to the Netherlands with me, she took the children to London, and she will return to China early in a few days, and I will try to return to Jiangzhou on the 28th and 29th of the New Year. Xu Teng's 2012 Spring Festival was spent in London, which is indeed the kind of tranquility he and Xia Li wanted, but it is boring to think about it, after all, once a year, it is not the New Year if it is too quiet.

"That's the best, you and Xia Li didn't celebrate the New Year in Jiangzhou last year, and Jian Chen and I have nowhere to go, except for the dinner on the first day of the new year, the rest of the holidays are at home with the children. "Liu Junsheng likes to join in the fun, college days are like this, where do many people run, every Spring Festival, Xu Teng's house is overcrowded from the first to the sixth day of junior high school, he is always the first to arrive, the last to go, often play until the middle of the night before going back.

Liu Junsheng's recent aminotransferase index has maintained a good level.

Xu Teng specially asked someone to prepare a bottle of Hennessy Richard cognac, and he had two drinks with him, and while tasting the wine, he also thought about it for a while, "This is for you to come directly, mainly because there are two things that you have to tell you alone." ”

"Okay, I'm afraid that you don't have a new errand here, I talked so well with Ford, but I turned out to be blind, I haven't done anything in the United States for the past half a month, and I just deal with your American friends every day. Liu Junsheng is in the United States, and Lu Zhifeng's mission is still a little different, although he is only a senior partner of the Huayin Consortium, but even in the United States, many people know that he is Xu Teng's college classmate and one of his best friends.

Therefore, a very important task for Liu Junsheng in the United States is to socialize and help Xu Teng maintain various personal relationships with the Huayin Foundation.

Engaging in public relations in the United States is not as frequent drinking as in China, so there is no pressure on Liu Junsheng, just a little busy, and frequently attends various charity events.

"First of all, you and Gong Keyfei may have to spend the New Year in the United States this year, because I decided to intervene in the affairs of Fiat and Chrysler, and after you visit the Audi company, you don't have to go back to China, you go back to the United States directly. You first have to come to an agreement with AIG and the Ford family, and join Ford to negotiate with the Chrysler union, they control 60% of Chrysler's shares, and we can transfer the technology of small cars and compact models, and at the minimum, we will get more than 20% of the shares. ”

Xu Teng's meaning is very simple, to prevent Fiat from acquiring Chrysler at all costs, and if it must be merged, Ford Motor will merge Chrysler...... Unless Fiat is willing to pay a large sum of money.

In 2008, at the height of the subprime mortgage crisis, the United States was really full of gold, as long as you have money, you can buy anything, and after surviving that difficulty, the investment benefits will be doubled in a few years.

Xu Teng went to the United States to negotiate at that time, and the scale of investment was still very extensive.

From the beginning of 2005, The-ShunFamliy began to gradually mortgage assets in the United States, a large number of domestic A-shares, to October 2006, the Xu family to Chinese and foreign banks to mortgage a total of 170 billion US dollars worth of overseas securities assets, the vast majority of which were used to invest in A-shares, in May 2007, the Xu family used thousands of private equity and funds within the control and influence of the Bank of China consortium to take over, quietly withdrew from A-shares, turned to global gold assets.

In August of the same year, Xu's overseas funds and the Huayin consortium began to short U.S. stocks and global commodities at the same time, from oil to iron ore, from U.S. stocks to the London stock market, all of which were shorting, mainly shorting Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac and global financial stocks.

It was under this pressure that the stock prices of the two houses collapsed months in advance, and the entire subprime mortgage crisis was broader and more violent than Xu Teng had predicted.

In view of the domestic policy of 4 trillion yuan, starting from April 2008, The-ShunFamliy and the Huayin consortium, which knew the policy in advance, began to increase their holdings of global commodity assets, from the stock market to futures.

At the same time, Xu Teng's Yinmei plan was also fully launched, although there was a huge amount of capital, the actual cash flow that could be mobilized was not much.

In April 2008, Xu Teng made two huge capital injections into AIG Group and Ford Motor Company, and still relied on the mortgage of domestic assets, raising US$40 billion through China Development Bank, Bank of China, and Industrial and Commercial Bank of China.

Therefore, from that special stage in 2007 and 2008, the Xu family and the Huayin consortium did make a lot of money, but the actual activity funds available for mobilization were not much, and the vast majority of the capital was used to invest in the most profitable business.

At the most tense time, especially after Xu Teng assisted Ford and increased his holdings in BMW, and at the same time took advantage of the contradictions between Volkswagen and the Porsche family to greatly increase his holdings in Volkswagen and Porsche, he only had billions of dollars left in his hands.

Compared with Ford, compared with BMW, compared with Volkswagen and Porsche, Chrysler's little opportunity is not worth Xu Teng's attention at all.

In fact, at that time in 2008, it was a foolish thing to invest in the automotive industry, the return on investment was very low, and the global commodity sector, from oil to iron ore and copper ore, was full of opportunities, and you could get more than 70% ROI without any leverage betting.

At that time, The-ShunFamliy and the Huayin Consortium invested heavily in international oil and mineral resources, and increased their outstanding shares in more than 70 major oil and mineral listed companies around the world.

Now, The-ShunFamliy has withdrawn from global gold assets and is slowly withdrawing from international commodity investments.

The capital in Xu Teng's hand is very loose, and he basically can't find a better investment direction for the time being, and he is idle, so he decided to repeat his old tricks and continue to play a third-party intervention in Fiat and Chrysler.

Because since 2013, the stock prices of global auto companies have continued to rise, and the stronger the performance in China, the faster it rises, which is the most obvious reason for the rise of Watteng Automobile Company and Toyota, Ford and General Motors.

That's what business is all about, which industry has a fast stock price rise, and which industry has to be done.

How much can the real economy earn, now playing stocks, financial futures, and derivatives.

For Xu Teng's 180-degree turn, Liu Junsheng and Li Yifei in Xu Teng's study were a little caught off guard.

"Fiat's intention to acquire Chrysler is obvious, and they both hold 40% of the shares, so let's only get involved now, isn't it a bit ...... Isn't it kind?" Liu Junsheng reluctantly said a word that he really didn't like to use.

"Kindness?" Xu Teng was also surprised, to be honest, when he heard the word "kindness" from Liu Junsheng, he was shocked.

"I'm not saying you're not kind to that...... I mean, we just solved the problem with the public, and now we continue to offend Fiat, isn't it okay?" Liu Junsheng actually has a bad problem, bullying the weak and afraid of the hard.

This is obvious in the college days, the first time Xu Teng saw Liu Junsheng, he knew that this person had this kind of character defect, there were a total of 4 people in the 1404 dormitory, and Liu Junsheng picked the most stubble Zhao Pu to show off his wealth.

"What is the market value of Fiat?" Xu Teng is very patient with Mr. Han of SINOMACH, and even more patient with Liu Junsheng, as in the past, he likes to slowly teach him the truth of doing business.

"Less than 10 billion euros in market value, right?" Liu Junsheng really didn't pay attention to this detail, and quoted a very vague price.

"No, the latest price is already below 9 billion euros. Xu Teng gave him a more precise number, then looked at his watch, "In just seven hours, the price at the end of the market fell just below 9 billion euros." ”

"So low?" Liu Junsheng's fighting spirit exploded instantly, just as Xu Teng judged as always, this bastard likes to bully the weak.

"The debt is too high. Xu Teng explained the reason for the sluggish market value of Fiat, "Fiat's main performance is not Ferrari sports cars, but the market of Fiat's small cars in Europe and South America, and the market in the United States and Asia is almost negligible. What do you think it can do now, the world's best growing auto market is China, and it, the world's top ten car companies, has the lowest market share in China. To put it bluntly, the likelihood that Fiat wants to continue to spend $5 billion to buy Chrysler Corp. outright is very low, unless it directly mortgages all of Chrysler's assets and borrows money for the acquisition. ”

"Understand, Chrysler has a good momentum in the U.S. market, and its Cherokee models in China have been selling well, and if they re-launch, the stock price will definitely not be low, and Fiat's future stock price will be very embarrassing. Liu Junsheng is a very smart person after all, and finally understands that Xu Teng's goal is to promote Chrysler's assets to be re-listed.

If Fiat admits instigation, then Ford will buy Chrysler, so that Chrysler's performance in the United States and China will be reflected in Ford's stock price, and if Fiat does not admit it, then Fiat will be forced to lose money.

"This is the first thing, and the second thing is that I will arrange for Chen Zhixin to continue to be the chairman of Huateng Automobile for another two years, and arrange a candidate for global CEO to succeed him. I have already determined the specific candidate, and you will give him a hand in the future to escort him. Xu Teng is already sure that in the first stage of Huateng Automobile Group's emergence as a world-class car company, Audi CEO Rupert Stadler will be at the helm of the overall situation.

Stader is a newcomer, and he only has the status of a senior partner, and he is a newcomer among the senior partners, so it is too difficult to suppress the other senior partners.

Everyone else is Chairman Chen Zhixin's confidants, and if he really wants to make a contradiction, Chen Zhixin said that he supports Stader on the surface, but who he really wants to support behind is probably unknown.

In large units, whether they are private enterprises, state-owned enterprises, central enterprises, or foreign enterprises, the personnel relationship is always the most complicated.

It is impossible for Xu Teng to personally come forward to support Stadt every time there is a dispute, and the best choice is to let Liu Junsheng represent him and directly support Stader to control the situation within the senior management of Huateng Automobile Group.

In fact, this is also a special advantage of a family-based consortium, as long as Xu Teng sends a "plenipotentiary" who others dare not challenge head-on to the subsidiary to preside over the overall situation, or who to support behind the scenes, he can simplify the very complex personnel relationship.

"Oh...... Okay, I see. Liu Junsheng understood that when Xu Teng arranged for him to visit Audi, he thought that Xu Teng wanted to share the joy of life with him and let him see the new trophy of the chairman with his own eyes.

Since he was not the original candidate internally, except for the new CEO of Audi, Liu Junsheng couldn't think of any other candidate.

"That's all there is to you. Xu Teng explained Liu Junsheng's task clearly, and then talked to Li Yifei to help SINOMACH negotiate the acquisition of the German tool company Weidia.

"Chairman Gao Ming. "Li Yifei is not Liu Junsheng, how dare she be a casual and presumptuous woman in front of Xu Teng, so far, she has been standing, only Liu Junsheng is sitting with Erlang's legs crossed, and Xu Teng is sitting on the edge of the table very casually, sitting in front of Liu Junsheng to talk about things.

Liu Junsheng's treatment is actually the treatment of a joint partner, he just didn't get mixed up with this role, and he may have to work hard for at least ten more years to get to that point.

"Actually, you say we can buy Volvo car business, Geely Group has not made much money in Volvo over the years, I heard that Mr. Wang's investment in the car business in the past two years has not been as good as before, and the new investment is clean energy. Liu Junsheng thought of one thing, of course, if he really wanted to call the shots, he would rather pay an extra sum of money to the Volkswagen Group, pay an extra 5 billion euros in acquisition costs, and keep Jaguar.

"Your idea is kind of interesting, tell me. "Xu Teng's capital flow is very loose now, because since 2013, he has to withdraw from the global oil and commodity asset field, and the scale of this withdrawal is very terrifying, and the freed up capital flow will be very strong, and there is a lack of new investment points.

Xu Teng's pace of doing business is largely focused on the stock market, which sector of the global stock market is going to rise, or is slowly rising, he will transfer funds to which sector.

Whichever sector is going to fall, he will shrink from which sector in advance.

In addition to the prediction of the situation, the most important point is that he has big data, big data for global economic analysis, faster and more general and in-depth data scale than the World Bank, IMF, Bloomberg.

"Volvo's brand is still alive, but for us, the main problem is that there is no cheap opponent, if we invest resources in marketing Volvo cars, Volvo Group's heavy trucks, buses, construction machinery business have gains, this is a situation we do not want to see. On the other hand, if we have a stake in the Volvo Group and hold more than a certain percentage of the share capital, then we can still do this business. Liu Junsheng said all his thoughts, which was a good idea, but it was not actually his.

"Hmm?" Xu Teng calculated an account in his heart, feeling feasible, but not very sure, and then asked Li Yifei, who was standing next to him, "What do you think?"

"Me?" Li Yifei was a little surprised, probably didn't expect Xu Teng to let her speak, and thought about it for a while, "I think Mr. Liu's proposal is very good, after all, we have been fighting with the Swedish economic circle for so long, which can almost be regarded as convincing them." So far, we have only reached a cooperation framework between Ericsson and Huateng Electronics, and there is still no mutually acceptable cooperation framework between ABB and ZKTeco. The framework of cooperation between heavy trucks, buses and construction machinery is relatively simple, in fact, the chairman may wish to consider continuing to expand the depth of cooperation with the Swedish economic circle. ”

"Hmm...... It makes sense, okay, then I'll think about it again!" Xu Teng couldn't agree to such a big deal immediately, he also needed the investment department and the audit department to give a sufficiently complete financial report.

The most important point is that Xu Teng's original intention is to use the space of the growth of the stock price of the automobile industry to operate asset investment and obtain a high rate of return.

There are many more factors to consider and calculate.

Doing business is like this, the annual value-added rate of the entire Huayin consortium is 9%, or 10%, the difference between a point in the middle may be tens of billions, if you want to get an extra point of profit, you must be more careful to calculate each investment case, carefully control each investment case.

Xu Teng hadn't seen Liu Junsheng for a long time, although it was very late, he still wanted to chat with Liu Junsheng for half an hour longer, drink two more glasses, and let Li Yifei go back to rest first.

Liu Junsheng has been in the United States for the whole year, and the topic of the two has also focused on American society, culture and recent public opinion.

Chatting and talking.

After drinking a full glass of cognac, Yoo finally decided to say something.

"I cheated. "Liu Junsheng still has psychological pressure and has a headache.

"The other party is a man, a woman, a Chinese, or a foreigner?" Xu Teng is not strange at all, this bastard who changed four girlfriends a month in college days, is cheating still news?

"Of course it's a woman's ......!" Liu Junsheng was surprised.

"Man, I can understand, you just pay attention to secrecy, don't make trouble for yourself, after all, everyone is different, and it may not be a good thing to use the same social morality to restrain everyone. Xu Teng also has to be seriously relieved Liu Junsheng, no matter what, he is also a cheating bastard, even if it is by the way, he can comfort himself.

"You don't understand what I mean, it's not a problem for me to play with a foreign girl...... Crucially, I later learned that she was a senior partner of our Huayin Consortium. Liu Junsheng blamed Xu Teng for what he meant, if he didn't make it clear earlier, this time it's troublesome, colleagues, and they are all senior partners.

"Isn't it??" Xu Teng thought about it carefully, there are 35 senior partners of the Huayin Consortium in the United States, and there are only 7 female senior partners, in terms of age and appearance, only two can make Liu Junsheng excited, one of them has a special relationship with Xu Teng, Liu Junsheng is still clear.

So, only Ivica Dennap of the Dennap family remains.

"That...... Ivica, I want to know that she is a senior partner of our consortium, and she really won't tease her. Liu Junsheng looked helpless and annoyed.

"I think you're very proud in your heart, right?" Xu Teng was a little unhappy, because this matter was really serious, "What step of your relationship is now, often or once in a while?"

"I try to figure it out about once or twice a month. Liu Junsheng felt that things were not good, and immediately promised, "After I return to the United States this time, I will definitely find a way to settle this matter." ”

"Forget it, I don't know, you can do whatever you want...... I have a request to you, try to end it in a safe way before anyone else knows. Xu Teng had a little headache and couldn't talk anymore, so he called Li Yifei to come over and send Liu Junsheng back to his room to rest.

In the elevator of the hotel.

Waiting for the elevator door to close, Liu Junsheng smiled bitterly, feeling that he really shouldn't have said this kind of thing to Xu Teng, after all, he and Ivica were just playing on the spot...... It's just boring to life.

"Mr. Liu, looking at the chairman's appearance, it seems that he is helpless against you. Li Yifei wanted to laugh, but she didn't dare to laugh, she was about to take a bath and go to bed, but she didn't expect Xu Teng to call her over, not to continue to talk about business, but to let Liu Junsheng rearrange a secluded room, which was quite a bit of a meaning for Liu Junsheng to think about it.

"It's fine. Liu Junsheng didn't want to talk about this topic, but looked at the beautiful president next to him, laughed, and decided to bring up a previous topic, "It seems that I really want to thank you for giving me this proposal, which is indeed a good idea." ”

"Everyone knows that Liu is always the closest senior partner to the next joint qualification of the consortium, can I have a good relationship with you in advance?" Li Yifei smiled, not revealing his true intentions.

"I heard that in the past two years, among the five vice presidents of the international investment department, you have always been the most valued by the chairman. Liu Junsheng thought about it, and his expression was a little serious.

"Mr. Liu has won the award. Li Yifei is still smiling, estimating that Liu Junsheng has begun to figure out his true intentions, so he officially explained to him, "In fact, our investment department has long suggested to negotiate mergers and acquisitions with Volvo Group, although in recent years, Huateng Heavy Industry Group has been able to occupy the upper hand in the domestic construction machinery market, but overseas, after all, it is still inferior to Volvo Group." The chairman always doesn't say anything, and the people below us don't know how to deal with it. ”

"Oh, that's right. Liu Junsheng thought about it carefully, suddenly smiled, and reminded Li Yifei, "President Li, if you have a good idea in the future, you can tell the chairman directly, you don't need me to do it for you, and you don't need to let me touch your light, because what kind of ideas I can put forward and what kind of ideas you can put forward are very clear in the chairman's heart." ”

"What Mr. Liu said is, in fact, I just want to ask Mr. Liu to say a few words for our investment department, and I will not dare to bother Mr. Liu in the future. Li Yifei imagined carefully at this time, and felt that Xu Teng might have guessed that Liu Junsheng's statement about Volvo originated from her, because Liu Junsheng did not know that the Swedish economic circle had just visited Xu Teng, and was trying to make more profits, and strive to narrow the scope of competition between the two sides with the Huayin consortium.

No wonder he sighed, too many smart people around him are also troublesome, you beautiful presidents, one is smarter than the other, you have the confidence to compete for the position of the joint chair, this is a good thing, but you must first understand that the real smartest person in Huateng Company is your chairman. Liu Junsheng walked out of the elevator, although he didn't know where his room was, he still walked in front by himself, deliberately not thinking about the little thing about him and Ivica, in his heart as a prodigal child, this is actually not a very important thing, just playing.

It was only then that he realized that Li Yifei, a beautiful president who aspires to compete for the joint throne with the senior partners, does not care who can persuade Xu Teng to agree to negotiate a merger with Volvo Group, but is convinced that once Xu Teng agrees to start formal negotiations, she will definitely be one of the most important people in charge of the negotiation team.

Once the negotiations are successful, this will be a significant achievement that will give Li Yifei an advantage.

At this moment, Liu Junsheng couldn't help but want to laugh, "co-author", these two words are like a curse within the Huayin Consortium, which makes too many people obsessed, even he can't avoid vulgarity, and he works hard to avoid sleep and food, doesn't he just want to be promoted to joint partner as soon as possible?

Liu Junsheng also knows that Ivica Trump is actually the same, everyone is not exempt from vulgarity, and they are too eager to get the throne of "co-partner".
