Yukos is not small, and before the accident, the company was the largest petrochemical company in Russia, and even in the world, it was the largest petrochemical company.
This time Putin spent so much effort to destroy this enterprise, of course he would not make the mistake of the Yeltsin era and let this enterprise become dominant, originally many people estimated that he would nationalize this enterprise, but then there were many accidents.
Last year, the Russians announced that Ronckos had evaded taxes, and last year they had auctioned off some of the core of Yukos, but even the remaining part was quite attractive.
As long as you can get the rest of the auction at will, it will be enough for you to develop by then, you must know that a few years later, the price of oil in the world will continue to rise, and even once exceeded 100 US dollars a barrel.
At that time, if anyone had such an oil company in their hands, they would just sit at home and count the money.
In the Celestial Empire, the state has an absolute monopoly on the oil industry, and absolutely does not allow private individuals to meddle in the production, refining, and transportation of oil.
But this time they want to do business, but abroad, the emperor is far away, even if the officials of the Celestial Empire are not happy, they can't care about it.
And Jin Xiaoqiang doesn't plan to show off too much this time, so this acquisition will definitely be carried out quietly.
Last year, their enterprise made a lot of profits, but this year there are also a lot of places to spend money, and it is estimated that the automobile factory with an annual output of 500,000 vehicles to be built in the Dongkou Development Zone alone will cost a lot of money.
The land and production line equipment do not cost much, but it is estimated that a lot of investment will be required for the construction of the plant and the recruitment and training of employees.
But compared with Jin Xiaoqiang's current financial resources, it is not much, last year, their company made a total profit of 100 million yuan, and the net profit alone was as high as 1 field and more than 100 million.
(The data of the previous 10,000 chapters,I got it wrong,I've made a change)
Because there is not much money in the investment of the factory this year, in addition to the Chinese workers who account for the majority, about 10 billion yuan of capital is needed, as for the new factory, it can be done with more than 100 million, so the current Jin Xiaoqiang can be said to be quite abundant.
So after leaving 150 billion yuan of liquidity for the company, all the remaining funds were exchanged for US dollars, and a total of about 100 million US dollars were exchanged.
This time, Yukos's spoils will be played, this is a good opportunity that comes once in a thousand years, if you miss it, then if you want to participate in it in the future, I'm afraid you will pass this village, and there will be no more this store.
After spending an unusually heart-wrenching night in Moscow, Li Yifeng rushed to the Marriott Hotel where he was staying early the next morning.
Jin Xiaoqiang is a person who can enjoy it now, so of course he settled in the luxurious presidential suite After Li Yifeng entered his presidential suite, the two went straight to the conference room and began to talk secretly.
"It seems that the president is going to take a real action against Yukos, and it is said that he wants to recover the taxes that Yukos evaded in previous years, and the remaining taxes owed by Yukos are hundreds of millions of dollars, and there are also fines of the old hundred million dollars, so the situation of Yukos is not good."
Li Yifeng told Jin Xiaoqiang the news he heard from his cousin yesterday.
This news is not at all out of Jin Xiaoqiang's intentions, after all, in his last life, he already knew the final fate of this Yukos, and the split auction was inevitable.
"Wasn't there already a part of it that had been auctioned before? It is said that a lot of money was auctioned! ”
"That's right, the previous auction was Yukos's core subsidiary, Yugansk Company, and bought a total of 93.7 billion US dollars, but this is not enough, you must know that they have been sentenced to owe a total of more than 100 million US dollars in taxes and fines."
Li Yifeng said to Jin Xiaoqiang, and Jin Xiaoqiang secretly touched a cold sweat when he heard it, this Putin is really ruthless.
"So which one are we going to do with it?"
Jin Xiaoqiang asked again, after all, this split of Yukos is not a trivial matter, it involves the interests of all aspects and levels, this time Putin cut the cake, of course, he will be rewarded for his merits, and he will give the majority of his supporters. …,
And Li Yifeng's cousin Adelka, since Putin took office, has been Putin's number one think tank, in the Celestial Empire, it is the self-color of the secretary of the supreme leader, and he will definitely be a big man who will be stationed in Zhonglu in the future.
So this time, Jin Xiaoqiang estimated that Putin would definitely not treat Adrica badly.
"Well, the news is not very clear at the moment, the president allowed Abu to take back 57 percent of the shares of his Siberian Oil Company that was originally forcibly swallowed by Yukos at a very low price, and the Baikal consortium also got Yugansk, but it is not known who the rest will be?"
Guoaldehyde will definitely not treat his own head horse badly, Abu Weeping Boy is really a delicate guy, from the Yeltsin era, he is relying on the footsteps of Yeltsin to make a fortune, now Putin is in office, this guy's vision is really poisonous enough, the first time he chose to stand on Putin's side, and now Guoaldehyde has not failed his investment.
"The original core part of Yukos was two branches, one was the oil field under his own original Yugansk company, as well as oil refining, transportation pipelines and other enterprises, and the other part was the Siberian oil company that they forcibly acquired in the next year. This Siberian oil company turned out to be not small, and Khodorsky's old boy, who didn't know what means to use, forcibly forced Abu away and took down this company, which not only had 57 percent of Abu's shares, but also the shares of some other shareholders. ”
Li Yifeng was afraid that Jin Xiaoqiang would not understand Yukos's situation, so he still introduced the general situation to Jin Xiaoqiang.
Hehe, he not only supported himself this time, but also spit himself out, not only cheaper Abu, but also cheaper Putin!
Jin Xiaoqiang pressed it in his stomach and sneered.
In his previous life, when Yukos collapsed and was split and auctioned, Jin Xiaoqiang was still a patriotic and angry young man, because of the dispute over the Sino-Japanese Far East oil pipeline, Jin Xiaoqiang also paid special attention to this palace division.
Before Yukos didn't do it violently, this company has always been the largest oil supplier to the Celestial Empire on the Russian side, so after Yukos was announced that it would be split and auctioned, the Celestial Empire was also very concerned about it, and it also carried out a large area of reporting on this matter, so Jin Xiaoqiang still roughly remembers the final spoils result.
At that time, the United States and Western Europe were strongly opposed to the Russian side's spin-off auction of Yukos, and of course there were many interests involved.
Russia has always been one of the largest suppliers of oil and gas to Western Europe, and many oil and financial companies in Western Europe and the United States have invested in Russian oil companies.
As soon as Putin came up, he did not care about reshuffling and reorganizing Yukos, touching not only the interests of Berezovsky and Khodorsky, but also the interests of the chaebols in Western Europe and the United States, which had already laid out the situation.
So of course, they tried their best to interfere in this spin-off auction, and Yukos even sued the Russian government in the bankruptcy court of Houston through the support of some chaebols, and the Yankees also pretended to issue a ban on auctions.
It's a pity that the Russians don't give face to the Americans, not to mention that it is Russian President Putin who they want to shake this time!
Therefore, the ban of the Houston bankruptcy court in the United States naturally became a big joke in front of the Russians.
In the end, Yukos was spun off and auctioned, and Yugansk, the core of Yukos Company, was finally swallowed by a little-known newly formed Baikal consortium, which really made many financial experts at that time break their glasses.
You must know that at that time, many people thought that this Yugansk company would be nationalized by the iron-faced and selfless Putin, and would be bought by Russia's state-owned company, Russia is a natural gas company.
But the final result turned out to be that at the bidding meeting, a Baikal financial consortium that suddenly appeared was the first to raise its sign, and won the highest price at one time.
At that time, Jin Xiaoqiang didn't understand the truth very well, but after Putin stepped down, he helped Medvedev to power, and then became prime minister himself, and four years later, after coming to power again, Jin Xiaoqiang, who has been refined by society, knows which mysterious Baikal consortium must have an ulterior close relationship with Putin.
"Oh! So that's it! ”
After Jin Xiaoqiang heard this, he frowned, it didn't seem to be easy to do.
"What does the president mean by this auction?"
Jin Xiaoqiang asked again.
"Because Yukos has been evading taxes for many years, and when Khodorsky was arrested, they had basically transferred all the money in the company's account, and now this Yukos is simply an empty shell, and there is only $B left in the account, but after paying off some of the taxes owed, Yukos has no dime in his account. So what the president means is to let Yukos declare bankruptcy, and then the money from the auction will be used to pay back the taxes that have been evaded for so many years, as well as fines. ”
Li Yifeng stayed with his cousin for a long time yesterday, and the two of them have been discussing the issue of Yukos's spoils, so he can be said to be clear about Yukos's situation now.
"Will foreign companies be allowed to participate in the auction this time?"
Jin Xiaoqiang asked again.
"Well, it's not clear yet, but it doesn't seem to be very likely, who knows!"
