In the hotel where he stayed, Wang Ye sat in his room, looking out the window in a daze.

And in his mind, the follow-up plan has already begun to weave.

"Whew! I feel that the probability of success should be only two or three percent. ”

"However, if it weren't for the existence of the honeymoon period, there might not even be a 10% probability."

"But in any case, if this operation can be successful, it will be a landmark event for the country."

"It is also immeasurable to promote the next economic development."

Thinking of this, Wang Ye let out a long sigh of relief, looking at the already dim sky, and the last bit of sunset, his expression was full of solemnity.

"I don't know, what will the leaders decide?"

"Which company will you send? Or will there be a company that has never been seen before? ”

In the end, Wang Ye couldn't help but smack his lips and muttered to himself at the same time.

In the matter of investing in Westinghouse, there are three very key reasons why Wang Ye did not take the initiative to express his responsibility.

The first reason is that the original nuclear power plant negotiation project was initiated by the Second Machinery Department, in other words, this is a project of the Ministry of Nuclear Industry, and the reason why I was sent here was to try every means to promote the negotiations.

It's not appropriate, it's not reasonable.

Because even if the Red Star Consortium is now an enterprise that the state focuses on, there is no reason to do this.

The second reason, money!

If this project really wants to be promoted, just at this stage of acquisition, it is necessary to reserve at least 2 billion US dollars, and finally get at least 30% of Westinghouse's shares, otherwise the effect is not significant, and more importantly, when the acquisition ends and the two sides begin to cooperate, Westinghouse's market value will inevitably be pulled up.

Two billion US dollars, for the Red Star Consortium, is not impossible to take, after all, some time ago just won the order from Pakistan, the total value of more than two billion US dollars, but the problem is that if all the two billion US dollars are invested in the purchase of Westinghouse shares, although this money will definitely make more money, but in the short term, this money is trapped by Westinghouse, and the rapid development momentum of the Red Star Consortium is bound to have a great impact.

And at present, the business of the Red Star Consortium has been widely carried out in Africa, South America, deserts, and Southeast Asia, and there is a lot of investment content and a lot of money, but the money spent can bring extremely rich returns, even no worse than investing in Westinghouse, and the speed of recovering funds is even faster, so for the Red Star Consortium, investing in Westinghouse is not the best choice.

The third reason is the issue of sensitivity.

The Red Star Consortium is a military industrial unit, nuclear energy is a sensitive thing, and now the whole world is shrouded in the clouds of nuclear war, and what happens to the military industry and nuclear energy, then the original civilian things will become more sensitive, and there will be problems if you provoke them lightly, and the final result will definitely not be successful.

All in all.

It was for these reasons that Wang Ye didn't mention the Red Star Consortium, just looked like a member of the negotiation team, and directly suggested reporting to the leader to see if the leader was looking for a company or quickly creating a company

At present, the negotiation schedule between the negotiating team and Westinghouse is to negotiate for one day and then rest for one day, and then continue to talk on the third day.

So after the negotiations ended in the morning and the news was sent back to China in the afternoon, for the people of the negotiation team and Wang Ye, it was to wait for the news from the country, if the leaders said yes, then start to do it, if it didn't work, then continue to talk with Westinghouse according to the previous plan, as for whether the negotiation can come out with any results, but God knows.

While Wang Ye was actively preparing and conceiving the next plan, the domestic meeting was also underway.

"Huh? Wang Ye, this kid, can really bring us some new tricks every time. ”

"But you have to admit that his tricks are really bold!"

"Yes, but although the idea is very bold, combined with his arguments, I think it is still feasible."

"And in my opinion, this idea is constructive, and it has a very important reference value for us to develop overseas trade in the future."

"Comrade Wang Ye's brain is really unusual!"

"Yes, it's no wonder that the Red Star Coalition has been able to run all the way to this point, and it has a lot to do with Wang Ye's brain!"

In the conference room, the leaders of many ministries and commissions related to this project are all gathered here, adding up to at least a dozen people, and the first person sitting in the first place is a leader of the Ministry of Electric Power, and these leaders have seen the documents in their hands, and are talking to each other, and it can be seen in the smoke that everyone is very excited.

"Alright, alright, everyone be quiet!"

The leader of the Ministry of Electric Power, who presided over the meeting, waved, and suddenly the conference room gradually quieted down.

"Everyone has read the documents sent back by the United States."

"At present, the overall negotiation between us and Westinghouse is very unoptimistic, so we temporarily found support and sent Comrade Wang Ye over, and Comrade Wang Ye did not live up to our expectations, although it could not be solved directly, but he still thought of a way to make us more profitable in the long run through roundabout tactics."

"Now, we have two problems before us."

"The first question is, should we try this plan proposed by Comrade Wang Ye."

"The second question is, if we agree to try, which company should we use as the main body to take a stake in Westinghouse in the United States?"

"Okay, let's raise our hands and vote first, whether to do it or not."

"It's decided this, and it makes sense for us to discuss the follow-up."

After the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power who was sitting in the first place finished speaking, he took the lead in raising his right hand, indicating that he agreed with Wang Ye's plan, and Wei Qingshan next to him and Zhou Jinlie of the Fifth Machinery Department also raised their hands one after another.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally all the leaders in the field raised their hands.

"Huh? I really didn't expect everyone to raise their hands? ”

"To be honest, I was quite surprised."

Seeing this scene, the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power smiled in surprise, while another leader sighed and said:

"To be honest, nuclear power is not nuclear power, in fact, I don't care that much."

"The key is electrical technology, which is very important for us, and it is also what we urgently need at the moment, we not only lack technology, but also lack equipment."

"If we can really take a stake in Westinghouse and introduce technology and equipment from their side, then our current domestic electricity shortage can be greatly alleviated."

"Not to mention, we have a stake in Westinghouse, and we will have the initiative in the international negotiations in the electrical field, and they will not dare to ask for a price.

"So, I'm in favor!"

At this point, he paused, sighed again, and said:

"But it's useless for me to vote, I feel hanging."

"Investing in Westinghouse? Difficult! ”

In the face of this leader's slightly frustrated words, the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power smiled:

"Hey, it can't be done, that's man-made."

"Let's wait and see how Wang Ye puts on a good show for us."

"It's done, we're naturally happy, if not, let's not be discouraged, right?"

Hearing the words of the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power, the leader smiled helplessly, but did not continue to speak, and then the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power coughed lightly and said:

"That's the second problem, the main shareholder."

"Wang Ye didn't mention their Red Star Consortium, I think there is a suspicion of avoiding suspicion, in fact, there is no need for him to avoid this suspicion, they all say that those who can work hard, he is young and capable now, and it is time to work more."

"Therefore, our first option is for the Red Star Consortium to be the main shareholder."

After the leader of the power department finished speaking, Wei Qingshan next to him coughed lightly and said:

"Wang Ye may be avoiding suspicion, but I don't think it's all, he must have other considerations."

"For example, the Red Star Consortium is engaged in military equipment, and if it takes a stake in Westinghouse, it will become very sensitive after adding nuclear energy, and it may encounter some resistance, which are all issues that really need to be considered."

"So I suggest that we should start from scratch."

With the voice of Wei Qingshan's speech, the leaders present nodded one after another, and then the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power, who presided over the meeting, continued:

"That's right, what Lao Wei said is a problem."

"As for the second option, it is not to choose the Red Star Consortium, but to choose a company that we currently own, or we can set up a company."

"Okay, let's raise our hands to vote first, and choose the Red Star Consortium or start anew!"

"Raise your hand for the Red Star Consortium, and choose the other one not to raise your hand."

As soon as these words fell, the atmosphere in the conference room became a little tangled, and after two minutes, only about one-third of the people raised their hands, among which Wei Qingshan and Zhou Jinlie did not raise their hands.

For Wei Qingshan and Zhou Jinlie, the sensitivity of the Red Star Consortium is one thing, and spending money is another, although the country is a game of chess, but each department has its own goals and business pursuits, and it is good to invest in Westinghouse, but it will cost more than two billion US dollars, which will reduce the liquidity of the Red Star Consortium, a military industrial enterprise, and is not conducive to operation.

In addition, at present, the Red Star Consortium is still undertaking the task of building the third largest aviation base in China, so it is very important to have money in hand, so Wei Qingshan and Zhou Jinlie did not raise their hands, nuclear power needs to be developed, and electricity also needs to be carried out, but the military industrial system cannot be allowed to pay this money alone, the military industry is difficult enough, and there is no money for military spending all year round. It doesn't make sense!

"Okay, then let's start anew."

"Next, vote by show of hands, whether everyone thinks that we should use the company that already exists, or create a new one."

"Raise your hand to represent the company that already exists, let's get started!"

When the leader of the power system finished talking again, almost no one raised their hand in the conference room, and everyone agreed to re-establish a company, because the current domestic enterprise restructuring has just begun, the number of companies that can be used is very small, and most of the business content is not related to Westinghouse.

"Okay, it looks like everyone thinks the same thing."

"Next, let's identify some of the problems with this new company."

As soon as the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power was halfway through his speech, the leader who said the frustrating words just now couldn't help but interrupt, and asked quickly:

"And what's the name of the company?"

"From which departments are the personnel transferred?"

"Is there anything I need to pay attention to?"

"After all, the future is to dock with Westinghouse."

"Who's in charge? Can this person in charge take the lead? ”

"Is the person in charge responsible for the follow-up shareholding negotiations? Going to the United States? ”

"In the past, we have never invested in a foreign company, do we need to be stationed abroad at that time? How to station? How to communicate? ”

"How to organize the company?"

Faced with a series of questions from this leader, everyone present was a little dumbfounded, and the leader finally sighed and said:

"I'm not saying something discouragement, I'm reminding you."

"Although I don't recommend the Red Star Consortium to shoulder this job, the current situation is that no matter what we do, we are suspected of talking on paper, and in the end, the specific content still depends on Wang Ye."

"So I don't think it's better to do this, let's tell Wang Ye that we agreed to negotiate and agree to form a new company to take shares."

"And then! Look at what Wang Ye said, let's cooperate with his work, wouldn't it be good? ”

At that moment, the leaders present looked at each other, and the leader of the Ministry of Electric Power who was sitting at the top said with a smile:

"What Lao Yang said makes sense! So let's do it? ”

As soon as the words ended, a voice of agreement rang out in the conference room.

At seven o'clock in the morning Western time, the message was sent back to the negotiating team's hotel in Pittsburgh.

"Director Wang, what should we do next?"

In the conference room, under the gaze of everyone, Director Du, the head of the negotiation team, looked at Wang Ye and asked.

Wang Ye's expression was more solemn, and he raised a finger and said:

"First, let's send a message to Westinghouse."

"Tell them that tomorrow's negotiations need to be temporarily suspended because of some problems."

"Second, we have to use the weapon of the media, operate it well, and first press down the stock price of Westinghouse, after all, our dollars are not easy to come by, and they can't be wasted, and if they can be saved, they must be saved!"

Hearing Wang Ye say this, everyone present showed surprised and stunned expressions, but Director Du hesitated and said:

"Media weapons? How does it work? ”
