Chapter 402: The Dust is Settled
At the end of March, the international automobile industry ushered in a small reshuffle, first of all, the first automobile manufacturing company in South Korea's history - South Korea's Kia Motors Co., Ltd. chose the United States Merrill Lynch Securities Company as the IPO underwriter. An additional 120 million new shares were issued on the New York Stock Exchange at an IPO price of $5 per share, of which 20 million shares were publicly offered to the U.S. stock market, and the remaining 100 million shares were subscribed by the Lee family of South Korea for 30 million shares, the island nation of Honda Motor Co., Ltd. subscribed for 20 million shares, the American Saturn Motor Company subscribed for 50 million shares, and the South Korean Kia Tong Guò IPO on the New York Stock Exchange successfully raised 600 million U.S. dollars in one fell swoop.
Immediately after South Korea's Kia Corp., Japan's Honda Motor Co. Ltd. and the American Saturn Motor Company announced a group bid for South Korea's Daewoo Motors, South Korea's largest car manufacturer Hyundai Motor stood by and did not participate in the bidding, and the rest of the competitors also retreated, with Japan's Mazda and the United States' Ford Motor both terminating their plans before the second round of bidding.
In the end, Kia, Honda and Saturn jointly acquired Daewoo Automobile Manufacturing Company at a price of 1.2 billion US dollars, Kia Motors obtained Daewoo Motors' Incheon factory and research headquarters, Honda Motor Co., Ltd. obtained Daewoo Heavy Duty Automobile Plant in Hanoi, Vietnam, and Jiang Yelin's Saturn Automobile Company of the United States got Daewoo Motors' new factory in North Alabama, North America, as desired, making Saturn Motors' production capacity jump from 150,000 to 300,000 in one fell swoop, according to the plan, the new plant in Alabama was named Saturn II. The original Saturn factory in Springfield City is called Saturn One.
Of course, it will take some time to adjust and layout the original production line of the Alabama Saturn No. 2 plant, but with the addition of Jin Nantian, the founder of Daewoo Motor's Alabama plant, the Alabama plant, which retains most of the backbone of the factory, is expected to be able to complete the integration and put into the production of Saturn Motors in the second quarter, and the technology platform of Daewoo Motors will be merged into South Korea's Kia Motors together with the former Daewoo Motors R&D headquarters in Incheon, South Korea, anyway, Saturn Motors is now the second largest shareholder of Kia Motors. In fact, in the Korean domestic market, South Korea's Kia Motors, whose production capacity has doubled to 500,000 units, has the confidence to challenge South Korea's Hyundai Motor by using Daewoo's technology platform and the technical support of Honda and Saturn.
If it weren't for the call from Bai Suzhen, who was far away in the United States to prepare for the Yale Law School entrance exam, Jiang Yelin really stepped on a flight from Seoul to the capital of China with one foot, of course, this goods wanted to return to China to visit relatives to visit Yelin's own women, but the tentacles of the organization seemed to be omnipresent, Jiang Yelin thought that he had successfully integrated into the ranks of imperialist capitalists in the United States, not counting the asset scale of the Merrill Lynch G3 series fund controlled by him as high as 3 billion US dollars. is the secret investment fund of Cayman Island controlled by himself through Guò Songdao, and the asset scale also exceeds 300 million US dollars, but at this moment, Bai Suzhen seems to have the eyes of the sky, and calls the VIP waiting hall to find someone so confident, there is no second person other than the royal sister who can do it.
"Your every move has attracted the attention of many people, and now you will honestly go back to New York to do your own thing, and you are not allowed to enter the mainland without permission! No excuses are needed! That's it! Bai Suzhen's decisiveness in hanging up the phone and the voice coming from the receiver before seemed strange and weird, but Jiang Yelin heard it clearly, and it was Bai Suzhen's call on the other end of the phone, and it seemed to be in a public phone booth on the street, and he hung up after the call! No mud and water at all!
"Flight CA9527 to Huaxia Capital has started boarding...... Hurry up and board the plane! The good-looking Air China hostess lined up at the gate to welcome the first-class passengers on board, Jessica Abel got up and tidied up her makeup, turned around with her Kun bag, and saw her chairman holding the mobile phone in her hand with a tangled face, "Chairman? Whose phone is it? It's time to board a plane, and I'm looking forward to going to that mysterious country, the Great Wall, the Forbidden City, and Tiananmen...... Splendid palace ......"
"Hmm...... Jessica, I'm afraid I won't be able to take you to Huaxia next time, and the Merrill Lynch headquarters in New York will call me back on an emergency call...... Did you tell anyone that we were going to China? Jiang Yelin smiled bitterly and spread his hands, and 10,000 grass and mud horses rushed by angrily in his heart, he didn't know who leaked the news, in fact, he only temporarily decided to return to China an hour ago to quietly visit his relatives, could it be that Jessica, the assistant of the blonde and blue-eyed Nordic European woman in front of him, accidentally revealed his whereabouts? Or is it ...... There were other eyes around him who didn't know who were staring at him tightly, Jiang Yelin shuddered a little, and looked at the beautiful assistant next to him with sharp and strong doubts.
"What's wrong? Chairman, you ordered to quietly enter the village, don't shoot, so I didn't tell anyone about this trip to Huaxia, otherwise, Merrill Lynch headquarters would not have suddenly recruited the chairman back so much, right? Jessica Abel blinked her big good-looking eyes, her deep eyes seemed to tell endless grievances and sadness, the truth that the girl always understands the truth of the moon before the water, but a good girl from a Catholic family really doesn't dare to become someone's woman casually, fortunately, Jiang Yelin's eyes appreciate more than desire...... This sometimes makes the girl inevitably entangled and lacks self-confidence, is she too reserved, or too reserved?
"Is there really no one who sued? So how did you report our trip to Saturn headquarters? Jiang Yelin scratched his head, and began to weigh in his heart, Jessica, this girl, don't be the FBI to sit next to him, otherwise things will make a big fuss, he knows that Jessica Abel was recommended by Helen Lacey to his side as an assistant and secretary, and it has been 4 years since he entered the Saturn car at the age of 26 this year, in other words, Jessica will not arrange to enter the Saturn car even if she is an FBI person, saying that Jessica is the eyeliner of the FBI or the US SEC, It's better to say that Helen Lacey arranged eyeliner by her side...... However, the girl's eyes were discharging all the time when she looked at her, and the feeling of admiration and worship did not look like acting at all......
"Chairman, I didn't report at all, although I am Miss Lacey's former assistant, but since I became your temporary assistant and secretary, my previous work on Miss Lacey's side has been handed over and resigned, I only serve you alone, you are my only Boss, I told the secretaries of the chairman's office, the chairman still needs to stay in South Korea and Japan for a week, and I haven't been able to travel to China at all...... Chairman, can't you still trust people......
Jessica Abel, as a personal assistant and secretary, has been a trapeze artist in New York, Incheon, Seoul, Busan, Tokyo and Osaka for half a month, and has been conscientious in all aspects of the itinerary and negotiation preparations. He was accompanied by Kim Nam-tian, a South Korean who recently joined Saturn Motors as the general manager of Saturn No. 2 Plant in Alabama, because Jiang Yelin chose the most expensive hotel to live in the most luxurious suite every time he was on a business trip, so for most of the month, Jessica Abel, as a personal assistant, has almost always lived in a luxury suite with his boss, of course, even in the conditions in Incheon, Jiang Yelin almost stayed in the luxury suite, there are three bedrooms......
In the eyes of Koreans, islanders, and even Jill Lexton and Charlie Moncent of Saturn Motors, Jessica Abel, a 26-year-old blonde and blue-eyed Nordic woman, is the luckiest girl in the entire Saturn Motors Company. In the eyes of a strong woman like Jill Lexton, if someone inside the Saturn car can tie the chairman's heart, she is absolutely optimistic as the CEO, except for that Helen Lacey!
Jessica Abel's qualifications and abilities in Saturn Motors are far from enough to affect the status of other Saturn Motors executives, but Helen Lacey, the former general manager of human resources and public relations, is different, and her proud appearance and educational qualifications are secondary, the key is that Helen Lacey originally had a father who served as a senior vice president at General Motors, and now she has the favor of Jiang Yelin to become the president of Saturn Motors before herself. Then the president and CEO will inevitably form the most direct relationship of mutual restraint and competition, and even in the eyes of the board of directors, it is an indispensable choice and arrangement for each other to be a spare tire.
Therefore, Jill Lexton believes that if there is a beautiful woman inside the Saturn car who can become the chairman's confinement and bed partner, it must not be Hela Lacey, a beauty who has brought disaster to the country and the people, her status is high enough, high enough to affect her status at any time, if Jessica Abel, a vase-like beauty assistant, can become an obstacle between Hella Lacey and the chairman, Jill Lexton is happy to see it, of course, because Jessica is not only Hella Lacey personally recruited into Saturn Motors, has been trained as Helen Lacey's personal assistant for four years, so the task of wooing Jessica to become her own is a bit out of reach, at least for now, however, ambition and desire will continue to rise with the change of status, Jill Lexton thinks that he has more opportunities, but he needs to wait!
