Chapter 733: A Knife Strike

Mercedes-Benz took out a one-time large sum of fifty-one dollars, and their idea was very simple, that is, to see if the five billion dollars could make Huayang Power excited, and then be able to get a part of the shares of Huayang Power, even if it could arouse the interest of Huayang Power, and finally the two sides reached a share exchange, and finally formed a new cross-holding alliance.

After all, in terms of the current market situation, the performance of Huayang Power in the market can be described as unlimited potential, if they can invest five billion US dollars, then it will not take long for this investment to get a corresponding return.

Especially for this company, the crazy sales momentum in the Celestial Empire market, as long as they continue to maintain this speed, then this investment of five billion US dollars may not take ten years to fully recover, and it is even possible that within five to six years, this investment can be fully recovered in the form of year-end dividends.

This is the simplest conclusion that Mercedes-Benz's accounting department has come to after calculation, so don't look at the current $5 billion in funds, it seems like a lot, but in terms of future returns, this amount of money is really nothing.

Once they wait until Huayang Power expands rapidly, after just a few years, they can get back this part of the investment in the market, then what is left in their hands is completely the dry shares of Huayang Power, which is a profitable business.

Although they have not yet submitted a request for financing to any private equity funds, venture capital funds and banks, everyone knows that their financial pressure is not small.

Therefore, Mercedes-Benz is happy to extend a 'helping hand' to them at this time, but their ultimate purpose is indeed ulterior.

Now it depends on whether Huayang Power is willing to pay for the five billion US dollars.

"Of course, Mr. Kim's five billion US dollars, we will not ask for any interest. We only hope to be able to exchange a portion of the shares of Huayang Power. ”

Miles saw that Jin Xiaoqiang was silent. I thought he was really interested in the five billion dollars, after all, it was any company, even the behemoth in the industry. Hearing such a number will make your heart flutter.

After all, that's a solid $500 million, not 500 million, or 50 million. And it's dollars, it's cash, it's not garbage like bonds.

This year, Huayang Power's capacity expansion plan is so big, and I haven't heard that they have any contact with people in the financial world, it can be seen that this Jin always doesn't want to let his company go public, after all, once the company is listed, it will have to hand over part of the control of the company, which seems to be very inconsistent with the habits of the people of the Celestial Empire.

Then let's Mercedes-Benz provide them with this money in exchange for a part of their shares. And it doesn't ask much, just thirty percent, as long as he agrees. Then the rest will be easy.

Once Huayang Power asked for bait. Then it will be easy to do in the future, Mercedes has a hundred ways to expand. Their influence within Huayang Power.

For example, in the future, they can further increase investment and expand their holdings of Huayang Power's shares, as long as they can grasp 33.33% of Huayang Power's shares, then they can become the company's major shareholders, and have the right to request the company's board of directors, so they will have the right to speak in this company.

When the time comes, Huayang Power will live or die, just between the thoughts of Mercedes-Benz, after all, an internal discordant company, his development prospect, everyone can imagine.

Mercedes-Benz is a good idea, but unfortunately they ignore that the object of their match this time is Jin Xiaoqiang, this Huayang Power is Jin Xiaoqiang's hard work, and his attitude towards this company, but the Ford family's attitude towards Ford is the same, that is, this company is definitely just their own family business, and it will never be open to outsiders. …,

At present, the operation of mainstream large companies in the world is generally divided into two modes, one is the elite route, that is, the company is handed over to talented people to take care of, and then the company wants to be a joint-stock system.

The other is the implementation of the patriarchal system of family management, and this way because of the old method, has been criticized by the world, because this management model is the same as the feudal monarchy in the past, once the company comes up with a mediocre monarch, then it will definitely lead the company to a dead end.

So in modern times, Americans are extremely boasting of the meritocracy, that is, a large company is as diverse as possible, and then the position of leader is the capable.

But is that really the case?

Is the Morgan consortium in the United States really led by meritocracy? Hasn't the Morgan family been behind this company?

Isn't the same true of the Rockefeller consortium? You must know that these are the two most famous financial consortia in the world.

And in the industrial world, isn't Ford also a family system? There are also Toyota and Mitsubishi in Japan, which are not family systems, but it is these family system companies that are also booming, without the slightest sign of decline.

On the contrary, the elite leadership system that has been advocated by Westerners has been the most severely hit in the 08 financial crisis after the company has become bigger.

So in this life, Jin Xiaoqiang has never planned to list his automobile company or introduce other shareholders to join.

So this time Miles's abacus can be said to have failed, and it can even be said that he miscalculated at all.

"Hehe, I don't want to continue to discuss this issue, Mr. Myers, in fact, our Huayang Power is not short of funds, and we have no intention of financing from the outside world at all, so if Mercedes-Benz's cooperation proposal is only about this aspect, then we don't have to discuss it anymore."

Jin Xiaoqiang directly rejected Miles's proposal, which made Miles feel a little surprised, but he quickly recovered.

Because long before they came to participate in the negotiations with Huayang Power, they had prepared several plans, specifically for different situations, and they were also prepared for Huayang Power's refusal to raise funds.

After all, since its inception, Huayang Power has been rumored to have the support of a large American consortium behind them, so they are not short of money at all, plus they have made a lot of money in the market in the past two years, so their capital chain may not be as tight as everyone predicts.

Therefore, Mercedes-Benz can be said to have made complete preparations, and once Huayang Power rejects their proposal, they will of course prepare another set of rhetoric.

"Oh? That's right! Hehe, that's good, then Mr. Jin, don't you know if there is any better cooperation proposal in Huayang Power? ”

Miles knew that negotiations were about to enter the most tense and difficult stage, and based on the information they had previously spied on Volkswagen and BMW.

In the previous few times in the process of dealing with Volkswagen and BMW and Huayang Power, these two companies suffered enough and paid a very big price, and finally reached an agreement with Huayang Power, so he knew that Jin Xiaoqiang was very difficult to deal with.

And this guy is very good at using the cards in his hand, and his latest change is to swap out some of the skills they want or lack from the opponent they are negotiating with.

In fact, this is what some European manufacturers are most disgusted by, but there is no way, who let Huayang Power have what they urgently need.

Originally, Mercedes-Benz and BMW disdained to negotiate such a technology exchange with Huayang Power, but since the Detroit Auto Show at the beginning of a few years, Huayang Power's turbocharged engine has been the focus of discussion and attention of public opinion and ordinary consumers. …,

And their turbocharged engine has been tested by the market for such a long time, and it has indeed been recognized by the market, and since March this year, the Captain America of Huayang Power suddenly began to sell well in Germany, and it has become a hot seller.

In just seven months now, their Captain America has even sold 120,000 units, ranking second only to Volkswagen's Golf and becoming the second best-selling model in Germany.

You must know that in Europe, Germany is the country that knows the most about cars and is most willing to spend money on cars, and now Captain America has been very successful in Germany, which has also driven the hot sales of Qoros and other models of Huayang Power in Germany.

Mercedes-Benz made a statistic that as of the end of negotiations with Huayang Power, Huayang Power has four models in the top 20 of annual sales of German cars, and according to the current judgment, the civilian supercar they launched at this auto show is also likely to be selected for this ranks.

This made Mercedes-Benz feel a sense of crisis, and the era of turbocharging of automobile engines came.

They have just picked up the first generation of turbochargers, but Huayang Power is already playing the second generation of turbos, which puts Mercedes-Benz and BMW in the same embarrassing situation, that is, as the world's top luxury high-end brand, they are actually behind Huayang Power in the field of turbocharged engines, which makes Mercedes-Benz very difficult to accept, and it is also difficult for Mercedes-Benz fans to accept.

And not to mention, there is also an 8AT automatic transmission in their hands.

Now people don't agree with your 5 billion financing, so you can only wait quietly for the other party to make a move......

"Well, in fact, Mercedes-Benz has a lot of technology, and we still admire Huayang Power, such as the night vision system of the ninth-generation Mercedes-Benz that you launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show this year, as well as your lane keeping system......"

Jin Xiaoqiang hadn't finished speaking, and Miles on the other side already felt that it was dark in front of him, and this knife was really ruthless
