A big country of aerospace with black technology

Unlike other countries in the world, South Africa has several cities that serve different functions as capitals.

The Cape Town in front of Yang Yi and the others is one of them.

Home to many ministries including Congress.

"Next, it's our time to play."

Yang Yi, who finally arrived in Cape Town, said to Cheng Hanjie, whose left arm was wrapped in a bandage.

"You guys should rest for a while and recuperate."

The road to get here has not been smooth sailing.

It can even be said that there are constant ups and downs.

They at least encountered attacks from different forces from all directions.

Even the well-equipped and highly qualified security team has suffered many injuries.

Cheng Hanjie's arm was broken in a bomb attack.

No one expected that the other party would be able to launch a suicide bomb attack!

"Our injuries are not serious."

Cheng Hanjie didn't even look at his injured arm, but said firmly:

"Your safety is paramount."

After such a long period of contact, he has already understood what Galaxy Power means.

It is no exaggeration to say that this is almost the key to opening the door to the next era.

Seeing the other party's resolute attitude, Yang Yi stopped saying anything.

Instead, he started checking the information he had prepared again.

ESKOM company is the lifeblood enterprise of this country.

It is not an easy thing to win.

Even the most simple-minded person knows that energy is the backbone of the country.

Countries that cannot develop their own energy industries will find it difficult to develop their own industries.

Moreover, ESKOM's current liabilities are approximately US$12 billion.

This is an extremely huge number.

You must know that their national GDP is only about 100 billion US dollars a year.

"Mr. Yang, negotiations will begin at two o'clock in the afternoon."

The slightly cute-looking girl walked into Yang Yi's suite and said.

"The other party asked if we could get to the scene on time."

Yang Yi didn't even raise his head, still buried in the pile of papers and said:

"Reply to the other party and we will definitely arrive at the scene on time."

"I understand, Mr. Yang."

Yang Yi continued to be busy, but did not hear the sound of the other party closing the door.

So he raised his head and took a look.

I saw the other party standing at the door, hesitant to speak.

"Is there anything else?"

"Mr. Yang, can we really eat each other?"

The girl standing at the door seemed to be holding it in for a long time.

When Yang Yi asked, he couldn't help but say.

"Why do you feel like you can't eat?"

Yang Yi raised his eyebrows and asked.

"The other party's valuation is so much higher than ours, and it also has so much debt."

"And we don't seem to have that much money."

The girl gave many, many reasons.

"Shanshan, what do you think is the most important thing for a company?"

Yang Yi calmly asked a question.

"money?"

Zhang Shanshan said cautiously.

"You're wrong. It's actually strength."

Yang Yi remained calm, but his eyes revealed a light:

"Strength can be many things, money is just one of them."

"We have far more strength than you imagine."

After saying that, Yang Yi started to chase people away.

"Don't think so much, we will take down each other."

Zhang Shanshan left Yang Yi's suite with a lot of questions.

Cheng Hanjie, who was standing at the door, glanced at Zhang Shanshan when she went out.

He actually knows what is most important about Galaxy Power.

It is the future he represents.

This future is enough to sweep all today’s so-called energy giants into the trash heap of history.

This is why they encountered so many assassinations and attacks.

The old antiques who are about to be swept into the dustbin of history cannot be defeated obediently.

In the process, they will use whatever they have to resist.

Instigating rebellion, theft, assassination, public opinion, etc.

These are all ways for them to protect their status.

——

In the pure white building, the fierce debate process has passed.

"Yang, you should bear all joint debts of ESKOM."

"If you acquire ESKOM."

A middle-aged white man with deep eye sockets and a hooked nose said in an impolite tone.

Yang Yi had no expression, neither angry nor excited.

In the eyes of others.

It was like she was just watching a child having a tantrum.

"Everyone, you have to understand."

After the other party finished speaking, Yang Yi waited for a while and everyone became quiet before speaking.

"Now no other company will take over your ESKOM except us."

"In anyone's opinion, the acquisition of ESKOM is a loss-making transaction."

Yang Yi's statement is well-founded.

ESKOM’s share price is now only US$10 billion.

But the debt is a full $12 billion.

This means that even if ESKOM is sold in a package.

Nor can it repay all its debts.

Unless you have other plans.

Otherwise, no one would act like a charity and acquire an insolvent company.

Sitting opposite Yang Yi, the originally aggressive white middle-aged man's arrogance also became lowered at this time.

Yes.

No matter how much they brag.

Stock prices and debt don't lie.

ESKOM has indeed reached the end of its rope.

There was silence in the conference room for a moment.

"We acquired ESKOM at such a price out of consideration for market development."

Yang Yi's tone was calm, even indifferent.

"If you don't agree to such a price, then our cooperation opportunities may end here."

"It's a pity that ESKOM, a company with a long history, is going to disappear."

Yang Yi's words further stimulated the other party's weakness.

They also understand that selling ESKOM to Galaxy Power seems to be their best choice now.

Just want to bargain.

Just when the other party was about to bow his head and agree to Yang Yi's cooperation conditions.

A black man hurriedly walked into the conference room.

Then he walked up to the middle-aged white man's ear and whispered.

Yang Yi looked at the other party's increasingly lively expression and realized that there might be some unexpected changes in the negotiation.

Sure enough, after the black man finished speaking.

The white man was slightly excited, but wanted to hide it: "Sorry, since you are not very willing to make an acquisition, I think our negotiations can be temporarily suspended."

Yang Yi frowned so hard that he could pinch a crab to death, but he soon relaxed:

"We have great sincerity in acquiring ESKOM, which is beneficial to both of us."

The situation on the negotiating floor changed drastically after the black man finished speaking.

"Sorry, we have better contacts."

The white man did not hide much, but directly told the news he had just received.

This has many benefits for him.

The biggest advantage is that both sides compete.

More favorable acquisition conditions will definitely be offered.

"Then, I wish you can reach cooperation with the new acquirer."

Yang Yi didn't say much and was ready to leave after speaking.

After leaving the negotiating hotel building.

Yang Yi sat in the car and said to Cheng Hanjie in the driver's seat:

"Help find out who the other party's new negotiator is. I think the other party must be closely related to the person who assassinated us."

It is easy to draw such inferences.

The person who assassinated them must have enough conflicts of interest.

And the person who prevented them from acquiring ESKOM must have enough conflicts of interest.

There must be a relationship between the two.

They might even be the same group of people.

Returning to the hotel where they were staying temporarily, Cheng Hanjie left for a short time.

When he came back, he had already got the answer Yang Yi wanted.

"Our intelligence found that the person we just contacted today was an energy company from the alliance."

"It's called AC Energy Group."

Yang Yi looked at the information introduction in his hand and examined it carefully.

AC Energy's main business scope is some countries in the southern part of the Union.

It is a multinational energy giant.

It even controls the power industry of many countries in the southern part of the alliance.

"Could they be the ones behind our assassination?"

Yang Yi put down the document in his hand, looked at Cheng Hanjie's expressionless face and said.

"They are highly suspicious."

Cheng Hanjie said and took out a few more documents.

The above mainly introduces the overseas investment situation of AC Energy Group.

"Several of their companies in Southeast Asia are currently being impacted by us to varying degrees."

"There is a major business crisis."

"However, it has not had any impact on their status within the league."

Yang Yi seemed to have remembered something: "Do they also have part of the electric power industry in Camel Country?"

"Yes, AC Group is also trying to catch up in the new energy field."

Cheng Hanjie took out another document and placed it in front of Yang Yi: "They have invested in and built a lot of solar power stations and tidal energy power stations locally."

"But because the local area has already reached cooperation with us, and their solar power plants are very expensive."

"Basically all the money was lost."

Yang Yi was also a little surprised, not expecting such a coincidence.

Wherever Galaxy Power goes, you can meet them.

If you think about it carefully, their luck is really not good enough.

Galaxy Power can actually compete with them on price.

Their costs can even be reduced to a level lower than coal power generation.

But even at today's prices, they still can't beat Galaxy Power.

"So that's why they assassinated us?"

Yang Yi said after reading it.

"At least it's part of the reason."

Cheng Hanjie continued: "But this time the obstacle to our acquisition plan may indeed be one of their plans."

AC Energy Group, both in terms of financial resources and reputation.

They are much larger than Galaxy Electric.

Unless Yang Yi directly borrows the name of the National Net, he will still be unable to defeat the opponent.

You know, State Grid has always been able to rank in the top five among the world's top 500 companies.

Many times, the ranking is even in the top three or two.

But Yang Yi couldn't use their names.

"Unless we offer a price that the other party cannot refuse, there is a high probability that this acquisition will not succeed."

Cheng Hanjie couldn't help but said in the end.

Before this, he had almost never said anything about Yang Yi and their business cooperation.

This time was an exception, and he didn't know what kind of psychology he had.

But what’s said is what’s said.

"thanks for your reminder."

Yang Yi nodded and said, "But I still want to try."

Since he dared to risk being killed, he came out for this trip.

Yang Yi is certainly a very bold person.

Normal people rarely dare to run around the world like her after knowing that they are going to be assassinated.

This kind of person is probably crazy in the eyes of others.

"And we are not bound to lose." Yang Yi said while looking at the newspaper in front of him.

This is a local newspaper.

The large page above reports on the current major local events.

As an important city in South Africa, Cape Town is home to the only nuclear power plant.

But this nuclear power plant is already quite old.

Unit 1 has been under construction for twenty years.

The key is that there are occasional earthquakes of varying sizes in the Kuberg Nuclear Power Plant.

Earthquakes will have a considerable impact on nuclear power plants.

There may even be leaks!

A week ago, there was an earthquake in the area.

Unit 1 broke down right after the earthquake.

Although the Kuberg Nuclear Power Plant announced that unit 1 failed, no nuclear leakage occurred.

But the crux of the matter is that the local people don't believe this.

It has not been long since the Chernobyl accident that spread radioactive fallout to half of the continent.

People still fear more than they love nuclear power plants.

Because of this fear.

They began to spread their influence in newspapers, television and other media.

Call for the dismantling of the only nuclear power plant in South Africa and the African continent.

Even though this nuclear power plant has brought a lot of honor to the local area.

And there was a huge demonstration in Cape Town, where the nuclear power plant is located.

If Yang Yi opened the window at this time, he would be able to see the mighty parade that stretched for miles.

"You want to?" Cheng Hanjie saw the newspaper on the table and became a little confused.

"We can also use the card of public opinion to win this negotiation for us."

Yang Yi said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth.

Except for them, no one can give up the golden mountain of nuclear power plants.

No matter what others say, everyone who knows a little bit knows it.

Nuclear power is a really hard business to lose money on.

Moreover, the operating costs and operating risks are lower than those of ordinary thermal power plants.

It is impossible for an ordinary operator to give up such a good hen.

Unless he has another hen that lays golden eggs.

Galaxy Power is holding a hen that lays golden eggs in its hands.

What Yang Yi cares about is not the equipment, technology and other fixed assets owned by ESKOM at all.

They can get all these from home.

What really matters is the huge market occupied by ESKOM.

As the only local power group.

ESKOM monopolizes at least 95% of the electricity market.

For Yang Yi, this is what he really needs.

In fact, according to the pre-plan.

After the acquisition of ESKOM, it will be split into two parts.

Some are companies that operate the power business, and some are management companies that originally owned equipment, technology, etc.

And the management company will be sold.

Only the business companies operating the power business are left. (End of chapter)
