Chapter 397: Andrew. Mellon
Yesterday I was busy with delivery, and I was busy until more than seven o'clock in the evening, and when I got home, I coded the word code to nearly twelve o'clock, and I coded four chapters, and I will watch it four more today!
"Hey, Chris, don't mention that, although our family has a great fame and glorious history, it was all created by our predecessors, and it has nothing to do with us. Now we can't always sleep on the capital created for us by the older generation, we should build our business. Andrew said with a smile, but these words made Tang Feng's impression of him suddenly improve a lot.
Compared with the so-called two generations in China, these three young people in front of them can really be called the second generation. Like their parents and grandparents, which are excellent figures, whether it is in the economic or political world, their parents or grandparents can cause an earthquake if they stomp their feet casually.
But Chris, they have not been lying on the capital of their parents and even their ancestors to show off their wealth and fight for wealth, but have been tirelessly looking for various entrepreneurial opportunities. Needless to say, the investment fund set up by this guy himself is now a well-known fund in the industry, and Chris and Gorman have directly approached the door to cooperate with the gold mine discovered by Tang Feng, not to mention that the three of them have now joined the Star Exploration Company, which is definitely an excellent investment plan, once this plan is successful in the future, then the wealth they create will definitely exceed that of their parents and grandparents!
And this Andrew. Resemble. Mellon, although Tang Feng has not been in contact with him, but he can say such a thing, which is enough to prove that this guy is also an ambitious figure.
Sure enough, this idea of Tang Feng has just risen. Resemble. Mellon smiled and said to Tang Feng: "Tang." In just now you and Jeb. I've already talked to Chris, Benjamin, and Gorman while Mr. Bush was talking, and to be honest, I'm very optimistic about your star exploration program, so I'm going to join it. However, Chris, they can't call the shots. So I'm waiting for you right here, and I want to hear from you. ”
Andrew's eyes were staring at Tang Feng's eyes tightly, his eyes were full of expectation and persistence, and it could be seen that this guy was really tempted by the starry sky exploration plan.
However, Andrew's request made Tang Feng a little embarrassed, this star exploration company Tang Feng must maintain a controlling state, because this involves another plan, Tang Feng does not want to lose the dominance of the star exploration plan because of shares, this project must not get out of control. Otherwise, it will affect the implementation of that big plan.
Although Tang Feng does not know when the star exploration plan will make a breakthrough, Tang Feng plans to carry out a manned space operation in the near future, because this involves the implementation of another plan, and Tang Feng does not want to delay it too long. However, to carry out a manned space operation, it will cost a lot of money, so you need to make your own decision.
And now the 40% stake held by Benjamin, Sam, Chris, Gorman and the 40% stake is being removed, and the 40% stake is ready to be given to Neo. Of Dr. Schmitz's 5% stake, Tang Feng still has 4% of the stake available in his hand, if he sells this stake to Andrew. Obviously unfair to Andrew again.
Oh, my eldest son of the Mellon family wants to join your project. As a result, the shares you gave me were not as many as a R&D person, how could I feel embarrassed?
As if he saw why Tang Feng was embarrassed, Benjamin smiled and said to Tang Feng: "Tang, we all know why you are embarrassed, and we also know that you must maintain control of the Star Exploration Company." Well, do you think this will work? Andrew has a very good relationship with several of us. And we could see that Andrew really wanted to join the program, so I talked to Chris and Gorman about squeezing out 2% of each of our shares, so that we could make up 6% and Sam's share would not have to be moved. After all, his funds have already been invested, and I still have a part of the cash here, so I won't take that part of the cash, and it's very difficult to raise that cash anyway, so I'll give up 2% of the shares. Chris and Gorman haven't invested their funds yet, so they should invest less and take less shares. However, I suggest you give it to Neo. Dr. Schmitz's stake is also cut by 1%, and then another 1% is taken out of your mobile stake, so that you can make up 8% of Andrew's shares, of course, Andrew also knows very well how much cash it takes to get this 8% of the shares, you don't have to worry about this, Andrew is richer than a few of us, who let him have a good grandfather!"
Both Chris and Gorman were amused by Benjamin's last words, and it was clear that they were well aware of Andrew's situation.
Tang Feng thought about it and nodded silently.
Benjamin's proposal is also a good method, originally Tang Feng wanted to grit his teeth and squeeze out 10% of the shares, so that Tang Feng only owns 45% of the shares, but Sam will never betray himself, which Tang Feng can guarantee, so if Sam is counted, then he can still control. If you raise another amount of money in the future, you can dilute their shares by continuing to invest, which will also restore you to 51% control.
Doing so will cost you some money, but it doesn't matter if you can get someone like Andrew involved in the project. You must know that the Mellon family behind Andrew is wholly owned by Rockwell International.
Rockwell International is a major arms contractor for NASA and the U.S. Department of Defense, and is one of the most important U.S. companies producing military electronic systems and equipment, space systems and rocket engines, auto parts, and a variety of other industrial products. Rockwell International was NASA's largest partner for decades before the new century, and the famous Apollo program was led by NASA and Rockwell International.
In the United States, apart from NASA, if Rockwell considers himself second in the space industry, absolutely no one dares to admit first. In fact, even NASA, most of its technology is acquired through international cooperation with Rockwell. If NASA doesn't have an official background, even NASA can't compare to Rockwell International.
If Andrew can join in, plus the technical support from GE that Chris promised, and then there will be Neo. If a leader like Schmitz is a technology expert, then his star exploration program will definitely develop faster than previously thought. Because Rockwell International has the technology to build launch vehicles and space shuttles, it is the first in the world!
It was for this reason that Tang Feng planned to use that method to get Andrew to join in at the beginning. Now that Benjamin has made such a suggestion, and it seems that Chris and Gorman agree with it, it is undoubtedly the best way to adopt this plan. (To be continued......)
