Chapter 582: The Beginning of Eyeing the Tiger
This matter is not something that two people can sit together and talk about, Mr. Yin Manuel wants to send people to Fushan and Germany to verify the capital of the inverter and IGBT factories, and finally determine the specific amount of mortgage borrowing.
Two days later, Wang Weidong visited the Kadoorie family, and the outcome of the negotiations with Yin Manuel was similar, and they were both interested in inverters and IGBTs.
Wang Weidong is very satisfied with this trip to Hong Kong Island, and believes that the results will be achieved in about half a month to a month.
Just when Wang Weidong was about to return to Fushan, Li Yueshi called, and Swire Group was very interested in Sunningdale and hoped to have an interview with Wang Weidong.
The Swire Group is one of the world's leading companies, not only on Hong Kong Island, but also in the world, having been doing business with China during the reign of Emperor Jiaqing and the Qing Dynasty.
Today, Swire Group has a very large business in China, it is the majority shareholder of Cathay Pacific Airways, and the general agent of Coca-Cola in China.
Not to mention high-tech, that is, the daily life of Chinese, cleaning products, cosmetics, beverages, food, etc., countless favorite brands are hidden behind the shadow of international large companies.
The first two times were Wang Weidong's visits, but this time people from the Swire Group came to the Victoria Hotel to meet Wang Weidong.
It can also be seen from the fact that Swire Group took the initiative to visit the door, and it can be seen that they take this matter very seriously.
Wang Weidong was also ready to let Li Yueshi continue to be a translator, but the two people from the Swire Group who took the initiative to come to the door were a Beijing film.
It is not surprising to think about it, there is no shortage of compradors in China at any time.
Tian Rong, deputy general manager of Swire Group China, is a very powerful woman with a condescending appearance. The young man who accompanied her was only in his twenties and looked like Sven.
"Mr. Wang, you Sunningdale are really courageous, dare to bet at this critical time! On behalf of the Swire Group, I would like to speak with you about borrowing, and as long as it is not a lion's mouth, we are willing to meet your request. Tian Rong said.
"I'm sorry, I've already talked to people from the Yoon Manuel family and the Kadoorie family for a while, and they're very interested in the inverter and IGBT part of our business, so if we talk about it, we'll only be able to talk about the rest of the tubes and VCD parts." Wang Weidong said.
Tian Rong said with a smile on her calm face, "We came today to talk to you about Red Star Beer. ”
Wang Weidong suddenly felt a little uneasy in his heart, Xiangyang Electronics just revealed the intention to borrow, which seemed to attract the attention of a group of hungry wolves!
"In fact, the scale of our beer business is not large, the brewery in the opening market only has an output of 70,000 tons, the largest brewery in Wulin City has 200,000 tons, and the new brewery of 200,000 tons in Yucheng has not yet been built, only 50,000 tons of the old factory, which adds up to only 320,000 tons." Wang Weidong said.
In the 90s, the scale of a single brewery could not be too large, because a unified market had not been formed, and the local industrial and commercial department would investigate and deal with the local industrial and commercial department if there was a generation of salt from other places on the store shelves, let alone selling beer.
The radiation range of a brewery cannot be too large, and most of it can only be sold locally.
"We all know what you're talking about, and we know that you're building a brewery in the big northern country. Of course, it was built by a company set up by a few of your shareholders and did not belong to Red Star Beer. Tian Rong said.
Wang Weidong has a feeling that he has been stripped naked, it turns out that he can't hide anything, and these foreign companies know so much about China.
"We are very interested in the Chinese beer market of 1.2 billion yuan, don't you plan to build another 400,000-ton brewery? If all the projects are completed, the total production will reach one million tons. Tian Rong said.
Since the mid-to-late nineties, several major foreign beer groups have launched large-scale mergers and acquisitions in China, and Red Star Beer is also one of their targets.
Thinking about the tens of millions of tons of China's beer market in the future is exciting!
"Ms. Tian Rong, we didn't borrow money when we encountered economic difficulties, so we have the absolute initiative in what to mortgage and what to sell." Wang Weidong said.
"Of course I know, now China's door has been opened, come in are behemoths, unless it is an industry absolutely protected by the state, other industries are difficult to compete with foreign companies, can only make a little money in a place that foreign companies can't look down on, or OEM for foreign companies, this world is so realistic, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, want to compete can only quickly become bigger and stronger! You are right to seize this opportunity and fight once. Tian Rong said.
"I'm sorry, I've already thought about Red Star Beer, but now the scale is still too small, even if it's a mortgage, we can't borrow much money, and we have to leave a way out for ourselves." Wang Weidong said.
"Mr. Wang, it is enough to leave a way out of the brewery and second-hand car business in the big northern country! Isn't this something you've thought about a long time ago? If you want, our borrowing is willing to debt-to-equity swap, and with the strong promotion of our Swire Group's funds, Red Star Beer can quickly expand its scale, what do you think? Tian Rong asked.
"I'm sorry, if we win this time, there will be plenty of money to do it! I will consider Ms. Tian's suggestion, but it is likely to disappoint you. Wang Weidong said.
Tian Rong showed a regretful expression on her face, but immediately showed a smile and said, "I believe we will have a chance to cooperate in the future!" ”
After sending Tian Rong away, Li Yueshi asked, "Boss, why don't you agree to their loan?" ”
"Didn't you hear Tian Rong say that he wanted to convert debt into equity just now?" Wang Weidong replied.
"The era of one dominant share has long passed, and the dispersion of equity, 20 percent and 10 percent can control the company." Li Yueshi said.
"I understand what you're saying, but they're too dangerous, if we bring them in, we'll be kicked out sooner or later!" Wang Weidong said.
Li Yueshi opened the Gucci handbag, took out a beautiful box from it and handed it to Wang Weidong.
"Boss, this is my gift to you!" Li Yueshi said.
Wang Weidong slowly opened the box and saw that it contained a watch.
There are only three hands on the dial, which is very simple.
This watch is not as big and small as many brand watches, and the small circles are complicated and abnormal.
"Miss Li, how much does this watch cost?" Wang Weidong looked at the certificate and asked.
"It's cheap, boss." Li Yueshi replied.
"Will Patek Philippe be cheap? It should be at least a few hundred thousand Hong Kong dollars! Wang Weidong said.
"If the boss feels sorry for it, you can buy a gift to compensate me." Li Yueshi said with a smile.
"It's too much trouble to buy things, I'll transfer the money to your account when I get back." Wang Weidong said.
