Lepai's financing business has as much as 200 million U.S. dollars. Baker found a ticket for Forest, but Lepai only regards Forest as one of its alternatives. The specifics will depend on how well the plan goes.

The company's investment banking department has not yet decided who will lead it, and the work on this project will be divided. Therefore, in terms of work enthusiasm, Lei Hao does not have to worry at all. The entire Forest is running like clockwork.

Coupled with the affairs of Ant Energy Group, Leo and Yaman were naturally so busy that their heels hit the back of their heads. Throughout Sunday, they and the departments they led had no time to relax.

Lepai was in a hurry, so Forest and several other investment banks seized the time and sent the preliminary plan to the mailbox designated by Lepai on Sunday night.

Wall Street investment banks have rich experience in this kind of thing. Think of the total 700 million as a company, and if you raise 200 million, it means two-sevenths, or about 28.57% of the shares.

According to Lepai's wishes, they need at least 200 million yuan. In other words, you can have more money, but the shares released should not exceed 30%. If you can raise 200 million yuan with more than two-sevenths of the shares, that is Quite an advantage.

Then there is the issue of investment bank fees. The industry generally charges 1% to 5% of the project. Investment banks have had a hard time in the past few years, and the 1% figure has appeared from time to time. But for this project, Forest feels that it should be able to get more than 1%. 1% remuneration.

As a result, Lei Hao finally got the preliminary plan with several options.

The first is to directly charge a 1% fee, then raise 200 million yuan, and try to lower the number of shares released below 28.57%, that is, to collect money to do things.

Or directly underwrite 28.57% of the shares, and Forest will give Lepai 200 million U.S. dollars. The portion of these shares sold for more than 200 million U.S. dollars is Forest's profit.

The former is underwriting, and the latter is underwriting, but Forest has not expressed any intention to raise more than 200 million for Lepai. They... feel that this figure will all use the company's own funds.

"Anyway, it's a preliminary intention. The two parties can still continue to negotiate." Lei Hao was not very satisfied with this plan. Without more options, it meant giving up some possibilities and suffering a relative disadvantage.

Things developed as Lei Hao expected. On Monday the next day, after everyone had a brief meeting, Lei Hao received a call from Baker.

"Lei, Forest's plan lags far behind others. I don't understand why you submitted such a document. The board of directors almost eliminated you from the selection process." Baker's tone on the phone was full of depression. The board members of Lepai can discover some things.

This project is also extremely important to Lepai Group. It has a total investment of 700 million and its own expenditure is 500 million. Even for the catering service industry with abundant cash flow, it is definitely not a small number.

The reason Baker used to convince the board of directors was that Forest had contributed to Lepa Group's pension fund management, and he hoped to deepen cooperation between the two parties. Moreover, Lei Hao also accepted a Lepa introduced by Baker on the investment project of United Texas Petroleum. With the funds from the executive director of the Pai Group, Forest can be said to be a related household, and Baker is not alone.

"This is just a preliminary contact, Baker," Lei Hao pretended to be confused, "No one can come up with a better plan."

"Comeon, Ray, there is no need to say this between you and me. If Forest is this kind of plan, we might as well hand over the project to those people in Houston. At least... they seem to be rich." Baker opened joke.

But Lei Hao instantly caught the sensitive word: "Houston?"

"YES, you know, Ant Energy Group, they want to participate in Lepai's project, 200 million will be paid directly." Baker was careful and did not say that the other party asked for 30% of the shares, but in fact If you give 30%, you can also get convenience in some aspects.

It can only be said that if Lepai accepts the cooperation plan of Ant Energy Group, it can save the cost of paying it to the investment banks. The problem is that the funds found by the investment banks will not be involved in management, and Ant Energy Group must join the board of directors as an executive. Directors may even covet the identity of the controller.

None of this is important. The important thing is... Ant Energy Group is indeed seeking death. If others don't know, how can Lei Hao not know the details of the other party?

The other party definitely has 200 million U.S. dollars, but it is absolutely impossible for the other party to invest 200 million U.S. dollars in Lepai. The senior management of Ant Energy Group should be busy manipulating a series of data now, so they have no time to work here.

"What about other investment banks?" Lei Hao asked: "Baker, according to the practice in our financial circle, the initial intentions should be similar. As you know, we have not formally contacted each other."

"OK, you are right, but the situation is different. There are other options. Lepai does not necessarily need investment banks. Lei, what I also want to tell you is that even the plans of other investment banks are much better than Forest. At least it is possible for them to find options worth more than 200 million US dollars for Lepai." Baker lowered his voice because these words already involved business secrets.

"For a 200M (200 million) project, Baker, the picky big investment banks won't do their best. My competitors should be small and medium-sized investment banks. Well, in fact, the small and medium-sized investment banks on Wall Street can offer similar conditions!" Lei Hao calmly said said.

Although Baker was so enthusiastic, he seemed willing to share any secrets, and even revealed other investment banks' plans to Lei Hao, but in fact, other directors of Lepai were also using Forest to put pressure on other investment banks.

For example, Lepai and Forest have an old relationship, Forest is a new upstart on Wall Street, and Forest's fees are lower. Baker did not mention any of the advantages. After all, he is still the director of Lepai, and it is the habit of this old fox in the mall to please both sides. There are tricks.

"Anyway, Lei, I have secured the first formal opportunity for Forest to contact you. The board of directors has decided to talk to you first." Seeing Lei Hao starting to clarify some things, Baker immediately abandoned the original topic and began to point out his contributions. .

"Thank you, Baker." Lei Hao expressed his gratitude in due time, and then said as if he was confused: "Normally, you should contact Ant Energy Group first. Baker, I have been observing their stocks recently, um, It is possible to use customers’ financial assets for investment.”

"Wow, this is really unexpected." Baker's tone on the phone seemed very surprised, "Ante Energy? OK, let me tell you the truth, they have strong funds, an investment of 200 million, and they didn't even blink an eye. .”

"However, cooperation between physical enterprises is more troublesome. You know, Ant Energy is not just for profit. Of course, profit is very important, but for them, other things are also very important. After all... They have money."

"Do you want to buy Ant Energy's shares? As far as I know, there are many people who want to buy. Someone on our board of directors asked Joe for some purchase rights. Unfortunately, he did not get a satisfactory answer. It is said that people from KH also want to negotiate with Qiao. Let’s communicate with Qiao…”

Listening to Baker's words, Lei Hao really felt as if he could get it without any effort.
