229 Acquisitions

Huaxia, Ningyuan Office Building.

Ning Xiao, who had finished running errands at the base, had returned to the headquarters, and then saw how efficient Principal Chen was.

The plaque with the words Yanbei Sports University at the front door of Ningyuan is already being dismantled, and it is said that it will be replaced with a new one tomorrow. Just looking at Chen Yonggang's enthusiasm, it can be seen that the president is not very satisfied with the name of the university.

Ning Xiao felt that it didn't matter.

Even if the headquarters of the Future Space Academy is really moved to space, it doesn't matter if the prefix of the brand of the Space Academy is Yanbei Sports University. After all, the name is just a code name, and nothing will affect the exploration plan he and March have made together.

When he returned to the office, he began his daily work step by step.

Recruiting a few students at the Space Academy was already planned, but today I just went to the Space Academy to finalize this matter, because according to the estimate of the progress of the project in March, Wu Gang will have half a year to go on trials.

After Wu Gang's official sea trials, he may devote more time and energy to the layout of space scientific research, so he has to deal with some trivial matters before that. Not only to recruit students, but he also plans to take advantage of this time to have a child, as well as to get some people and things done, so that no one will be held back during the transition of the space age. It's all very important.

It was busy until three o'clock in the afternoon, and the office phone rang almost every second. Even if the time difference is not considered, this extremely punctual way of contact is worth learning and praise.

Yes, Ning Xiao knew that the call was from Du Ponte. He made an appointment for a phone call, and generally speaking, a call that is not too important cannot be made at all, which belongs to the intelligent value-added service in March. It doesn't cost money, but it's very easy to use.

……

"Hello, Ning, you know? I've been looking forward to the opportunity to talk to you directly like this, after all, no matter how reliable the person with the message is, there will always be all kinds of misunderstandings because of the expression. ”

"Well, Mr. Dupontle, thank you for your. However, I would like to remind you that although this number is a confidential line, our calls may not only be recorded, but also recorded, and even listened to repeatedly by many staff members, so I suggest that you think carefully about whether it is appropriate for you to say anything. ”

Two simple sentences set the tone of this call must be sincere, friendly, and open and honest, at least from Ning Xiao's point of view, he has achieved absolute frankness.

Obviously, this honesty was not expected on the other side, but when the person on the other end of the phone spoke again, he was indeed much more cautious.

"Well, of course, I understand. There's nothing wrong with that, after all, we've always wanted to build a mutually beneficial relationship. It's just that a lot of times things don't turn out the way we want them to, and this kind of thing is very common. ”

Ning Xiao took the phone, smiled, and said, "Let's get down to business." Mr. Dupontle, I'm not the kind of person you come into contact with on a daily basis, and I don't understand the words and sentences that are too official and full of subconscious meanings. I know you want to live longer, and there's nothing to be ashamed to admit because I'm the same, otherwise I wouldn't be looking into technology. So it's better to be more simply, what are you willing to pay in order to have a longer life, and then I will see if what you pay is what I want, so that we can reach an agreement as soon as possible, or directly negotiate and save time. ”

The speech was as simple, crisp, and direct as ever, and it probably proved how correct the profile that many psychologists had done for Ning Xiao before, although it seemed not very polite, but it was efficient enough.

Fortunately, the other side didn't seem to be offended, and the tone of the reply was even more modest: "Well, you're right. I read the medical reports of Nissen Mountbatten and Obote Relo. I admit to being intrigued that there can be such a gratifying change in their bodies, so I do hope that we can agree on the introduction of this technology. As for what to pay...... You can put forward conditions, and if you don't go beyond our bottom line, you can negotiate it. ”

Ning Xiao keenly noticed that the other party used we, not i. This is good information for him, showing that the high-ranking elder opposite is not so selfish, and good things will be shared. For Ning Xiao, this means that there is no need to spend more effort to leverage the greater good.

Obviously, the other party is also very honest, which is the basis for cooperation.

So Ning Xiao said very simply: "Then Mr. Dupontle, you should know why Neeson Mountbatten and Obote Relo were the first to experience this technology. So my request is actually very simple, what they are doing, is what I need, and if you can cooperate with what they are doing in three years, I will consider that you and all your friends who are willing to support this cause can enjoy the benefits of rejuvenating your body.

If you do well enough, I can even guarantee that only you and your friends will be able to use this technology in the West, and you can make a list of those who are not accepted by you will not be able to get the support of this technology. Outside, there is a saying in Huaxia that the leftover is king, which means that as long as you outlive your enemies, you will be able to win the roll and be invincible. I'm sure you'll agree with that, especially if you've lived in this world for more than a hundred years. ”

Ning Xiao's request caused the other party to hesitate for a moment on the phone, and then slowly spoke: "Ning, I hope to confirm that the support you said means that we only need to help them, or do you want me and my friends to join the Cult of Light they founded and abide by their teachings?" Or do you follow their orders? ”

Ning Xiao replied: "I don't need you to join them, and I don't need you to follow his orders, but for what they have to do, you must do your best to escort them." Of course, don't be afraid that you have done something I don't know, and don't even think of evading your obligations, or even doing the opposite.

I'm sure you've figured it out, and I've always been able to get some information that I need. Not to mention that I was able to hear directly from Neeson and Obote, what you did in it. And don't ask me what to do if Neeson and Obote disappear. If this happens, then our cooperation is bankrupt. ”

There was silence for a long time.

The other side asked, "Is this the only cooperation model?" ”

Soon there was a response: "Otherwise? Do you think I'm going to trade this technology for money? And with all due respect, if you really have to buy it with money, you and your friends may not be able to afford it. The most important thing is that long-term cooperation can reassure both of us. ”

This question is thought-provoking and frustrating.

Really, when a person doesn't even feel the increase in money, or even feels happy, there are really not many things in this world that can be put in his eyes, and this kind of person often pursues something higher, and people who have no desire to this point are always the most troublesome.

For rich people, it makes sense that a problem that can be solved with money is not called a problem. Because once you encounter a problem that money can't solve, the trouble multiple often rises exponentially.

It's like at this time, it's really hard to accept that a group of people on the other side help a small member of the House of Representatives. If you have a choice, of course paying directly is perfect, provided that the price is reasonable. Ning Xiao said that they might not be able to afford it, and all possibilities have been blocked.

But then again, it's hard to measure the value of life in terms of money, especially for certain groups of people. And there is often a bottom line at all costs, and if you become poor again in order to survive, it is probably more uncomfortable than letting them die.

So when Ning Xiao's words came out, the attitude of the other side obviously began to soften.

"I see, Ning, indeed, you gave a very good choice. Of course, I need to discuss it with my friends. ”

"Okay, Mr. Dupontle, I'm not in a hurry, you can discuss it slowly. After all, this is a long cooperation that will accompany you for the rest of your life, and you should be cautious. I like to work with people who are used to thinking twice. ”

Ning Xiao's voice fell, and the tone on the other side became more and more friendly: "Okay, thank you very much for your affirmation." Well, goodbye, my friend. ”

Ning Xiao still said in a detached tone, "Goodbye, Mr. Du Pontle. ”

Then I hung up the phone directly.

In fact, Ning Xiao still hasn't finished speaking, he actually hates it when he talks about business, but the other party hopes to talk to him about feelings, complicate simple problems, and give bad reviews!

……

Huaxia, in an office.

As Ning said, although his office is a confidential line, the calls will probably be recorded or even listened to. However, Lao Zhang didn't hide it from him in this regard, so Ning Xiao didn't feel very troublesome. Anyway, if it's a call he doesn't want to be monitored, naturally March cutie will do it.

For the staff, it was naturally a little embarrassing to hear Ning Xiao's words.

But fortunately, there won't be much face-to-face intersection between the two sides, so the slight embarrassment is probably that the two who are working look at each other and smile. As a secret service officer of the secret unit, he was already familiar with Ning Xiao's information, so he naturally knew that this young genius scientist still had his special rebellious nature. So there's nothing to worry about.

However, the two soon found out that although the phone call was not long, it was quite dry.

So soon there was an exclamation: "I knew, I knew, Nissen Mountbatten was really connected with Academician Ning." Did you hear it, what he did was made by Academician Ning. Well, I said it right then! ”

"Yes, you're right about everything, right? Let's not be surprised, okay? I almost scared you to death! ”

"No, don't you think it's amazing? How did Nethan Mountbatten say that he is also a councillor now! ”

"Yes, yes, yes, but so what? But I'm interested in what Neeson Mountbatten is going to do now. Academician Ning attaches great importance to something, it should be a big deal, right? ”

After speaking, the two glanced at each other, and then tacitly began to use their authority.

Anyway, if it's really not something they can watch, they won't be able to find it. But I don't think the level of secrecy will be very high. After all, with an identity like Nison Mountbatten, some of the things he does and some of the words he says are basically semi-public, and if you are patient, you may be able to find it on the Internet.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the two to find out about Nissen Mountbatten's recent movements.

Good guys, this congressman has joined forces with two funds to wholly acquire one of the most influential television stations and broadcasters in North America. The two looked at each other again, and it was clear that this was not just something that could be done with money. But with the help of Dubonne and his friends, it would obviously be different.

With these people waving their flags behind them, the probability of success of this acquisition has greatly increased, of course, given that this matter is too big, it is really difficult to say the success rate.

"Tut-tut, good guys, a direct takeover of NB's parent company? If you say that if this thing is really done, will Academician Yining's temperament be broadcast on our news program at 7 o'clock in the evening? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, is Academician Ning the kind of person who will be so nonsense?"

"Isn't it?"

"Hmm...... Don't talk nonsense with me, there is a kind of saying in front of people, I respect you as a man. ”

"Forget it, but do you think this acquisition will be successful?"

"It depends on how much they dare to go. If Dupont and his friends of all persuasion were to do their best, maybe it would have been possible. ”

"Hey, this is exciting, why don't we take a gamble. You choose first, who loses to the other party to bring a week's breakfast, how about it? Time, just three months! ”

"Okay, I'll play with you this time, I think this can be done, and the time will be set for three months."

"Well, if you say that, I'd love to bring you breakfast for a week."

"I'm also looking forward to it, okay, let's get to work, quickly sort out all the information, and then hand it in. I have a hunch that we might be able to give out a bonus this time. ”

"Haha, it's the same as I think, work, work."

……

Ning Xiao didn't know that someone had already linked this Nison Mountbatten action to the prize money. If he knew, he would probably compliment the two staff members for their good eyesight. After all, there is really no plan given in March that has not been successful.

It was as if March had decided that Mr. Dupont would do everything he could to contact him, and it did. It's not that March is good at controlling human nature, but in the selection of partners, it has been screened through countless messages. When it comes to collecting and organizing information, no one can compare to March's cutie.

In fact, the good news came back two months later.

It has been largely determined that Blackstone has formed a company called Bright Future that will acquire all of NBC's shares from Comcast and 20 percent of NBC Global's shares from General Electric.

The process of capital operation is not important, but the result is really exciting.
