Chapter 886 - Don't Pay Back
As soon as Old Man Xie's words landed, Hou Xiaomin's eyes immediately lit up and said, "I think this idea is very good." Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½ā
Compared with Hou Xiaomin, Peng Yang's opinion is more conservative: "The idea is good, but there are still many difficulties that need customer service ......"
"Peng Gong, you are nitpicking," before Peng Yang finished speaking, Zhou Derong smiled and said: "You can't deny that Comrade Chen Geng's idea is the most feasible idea at present, right?" Even if there are still many difficulties in this process, it is better than running around like a headless fly and not finding a way, don't you say? ā
"That's right." Peng Yang has a good heart, of course, it is more likely that the relationship between the two is very good, and when Zhou Derong refuted it like this, he was not angry, but laughed.
Even if such a big thing is decided, as for how many shares Runhua Industrial will keep, how many shares will it give to the Zambian government, and how many shares will it take out to raise funds from the society...... and so on, and discuss them slowly, and always negotiate a result that is acceptable to all parties.
ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦ā¦
After sending off the guests, only the people of Runhua Industry were left in the room, and this was the time for Runhua Industry.
Old Man Xie no longer concealed his thoughts, and asked with a straight face: "Chairman Chen, do you really plan to sell the shares of this company?" ā
"Yes." Knowing why Mr. Xie asked such a question, Chen Geng said it to Mr. Xie, and at the same time to everyone: "I roughly calculated, if we want to complete a complete set of 'power generation-power transmission and transformation' lines, the conservative estimate is 40 billion, for Runhua Industry, this investment is too big, we can't and reasonably invest so much money for such a project, this is a serious waste of funds, rather than we gnaw this hard bone ourselves, it is better to find a way to introduce more capital." ā
"Of course, the solution is a good way," Mr. Xie did not deny this: "But the shares sold are less, and not enough funds can be raised; With more shares sold, can this company still say that we have the final say? ā
This is not only a problem that Mr. Xie is worried about, but also the problem that the senior executives of Runhua Industry who first heard Chen Geng's fundraising plan are worried, such a large project, it is conservatively estimated that 50% of the shares will be sold to the outside world, and maybe even more than 65%, so who has the final say in this company?
Chen Geng seemed to be very open-minded and said: "It's a good thing to have controversy, we can't expect everything to run according to our assumptions...... In the future, Runhua Industrial will inevitably participate in more enterprises, and any participation in the management of shareholding enterprises without being able to grasp the absolute controlling stake? I think we might as well treat this incident as a school. ā
Saying that, Mr. Xie actually admitted in his heart that Chen Geng said that it was reasonable, the development of Runhua Industry could not always be so smooth sailing, and now Runhua Industry, with its unique position in the industry, has acted a little overbearing, but this situation must not last long, just like Chen Geng said, with the development of the enterprise, Runhua Industry will inevitably participate more and more in other companies, what should I do at that time? Either just leave it alone, or fight with other shareholders? Obviously not, rather than waiting for trouble to come to an end in the future and then pondering how to deal with this kind of thing, it is better to learn to adapt and get used to it now.
"I can't talk about you," Old Man Xie shook his head with a wry smile: "But there is a problem right now, I heard that there is a high demand in Zambia for President Kaunda to step down, and at this time, ...... Is the risk too great? ā
"The risk is greater, but the wealth is in danger! How long do you think it will take for the Zambian government to agree to our two projects under normal circumstances? ā
Old Man Xie thought for a while: "If it's fast, it's a year, and if it's slow, it's ...... Hey, this shabby place in Africa, it's not uncommon to drag on for three or five years, and it's common for ten or eight years......" Speaking of this, Old Man Xie suddenly raised his head: "You mean ......"
Chen Geng nodded: "Minister Karima will come over tomorrow, he should be able to bring us some good news." ā
āāāāāāāāāāāāāāāā
Based on Chen Geng's good character all the time, Old Man Xie was skeptical of Chen Geng's words, but at this moment, listening to what Minister Karima said to Chen Geng, he was completely confused......
"Mr. President personally instructed that China and Zambia have a long traditional friendship, China is Zambia's most trusted friend, Chinese friends are here to help Zambia develop, and the Zambian people warmly welcome all investment activities of Chinese friends......
Speaking of which, Karima secretly observed Chen Geng's expression, but Chen Geng's reaction made Karima a little disappointed, although he had been very cooperative with his nod, but Karima actually knew very well in his heart that Chen Geng's actions were actually just politeness and respect for himself.
That's it!
The time has come to come up with something that is weighty, and neither the situation in Zambia, nor the situation facing Mr. President, can afford to waste such time - Mr. President has not much time to waste.
Thinking of this, Karima took a deep breath: "Mr. Chen, Mr. President hopes to finalize our cooperation as soon as possible, and this is as soon as possible, hoping to be able to announce the cooperation framework within a week and reach a detailed cooperation agreement within a month......
Old man Xie almost bit his tongue! Zambia's request is clearly saying to Chen Geng: Little handsome guy, come and kill me, come and kill me......
Is this Nima a tease of naked @ naked @ naked?
He subconsciously turned his head to Chen Geng, wanting to see what kind of reaction Chen Geng had.
Chen Geng's face was not happy, on the contrary, his expression was very solemn: "Mr. Minister, there is a question I shouldn't ask, but I still have to take the liberty of asking...... Is the situation so difficult now, Mr. President? ā
Karima was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly: Since people have already guessed what is going on, what's the point of hiding it?
Extremely single, it can also be said that it is a broken jar nodded, Karima said: "Very serious, I won't tell you, if this cooperation can be reached as soon as possible, Mr. President still has hope, if not, ......"
"No problem, I promised!" Without waiting for Karima to finish speaking, Chen Geng suddenly said.
"What?" Karima was stunned for a moment, thinking she had misheard.
"I agree to make public what we are talking about, and I can clearly tell the Zambian people that the memorandum of cooperation will be announced in a week, and the formal contract will be formally signed within a month after the memorandum is signed," Chen Geng's eyes were full of sincerity, looking at Karima: "Mr. President has done a lot for China, and now it is time for China to help this old friend - Chinese will never let their old friend down." In addition, please rest assured that Runhua Industry is cooperating with Zambia with the greatest sincerity, and we will never put forward any excessive conditions, please rest assured that Mr. Minister and His Excellency the President will be assured. ā
Karima's eyes turned red all at once!
Over the past year or so, His Excellency the President has been in an extremely difficult situation, even with those who belong to the President's line, and in the situation of internal and external difficulties and embattlement, everyone has almost despaired, but who would have thought that the Chinese would stand behind His Excellency the President at this time.
Chen Geng continued: "When the construction begins, we will give priority to hiring the families of the military as the construction personnel of Zambia, and after the construction is completed and the factory in the development zone starts, we will give priority to recommending the families of the military to work in the development zone......
Although Chen Geng's words were not finished yet, Karima was already happy in his heart and couldn't wait to look up to the sky and roar!
The army is stable, the country is stable, as long as the army is not chaotic, no matter how chaotic it is, it will not go anywhere, and those guys who keep jumping up and down are just clowns jumping off the beam. He knew this too well, and if Runhua Industrial gave priority to hiring military family members when hiring local Zambian employees, Karima couldn't imagine how good the prospect was.
When she thought that her Chinese friends had helped her so much, Karima felt that the following words were a little unspeakable, but if she didn't say no, the loans from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund were about to expire......
A black face turned red, and Karima said with a smile: "Chen, thank you very much for your help, but ......"
"You say." Chen Geng nodded, signaling Karima not to worry, if he had any ideas, he said.
Long pain is better than short pain, anyway, Karima gritted his teeth: "That's it, you...... Can you give us a $20 million loan? ā
A $20 million loan? Chen Geng looked at Karima with a stunned expression: This guy has a tailwind, right? How did he know that the central government of the republic had prepared $30 million in foreign exchange for himself? This mouth is two-thirds of the way.
Without waiting for Chen Geng to ask, Karima explained: "This money is for Zambia to repay a loan from the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund that expired in September, and the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund said that if we can't repay the loan when due, they will stop all aid to Zambia......
"I'll lend you $20 million, that's easy to say," Chen Geng said without waiting for Karima to finish speaking, "But my personal advice is that you'd better not repay this loan." ā
"Don't pay it back? Why? Karima looked stunned and hurriedly said: "If this loan is not repaid, the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund will cut off all economic aid to Zambia......
Chen Geng sighed and asked rhetorically: "Mr. Minister, even if you repay this loan, will the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank provide you with assistance without any political or economic conditions attached?" ā
Karima was stunned.
