Reborn Capital Empire

Chapter 220 Reaping the Fruits of Victory

…

"I can promise to let Marvel Entertainment operate independently!" Guo Shouyun said after thinking for a while.

"real?"

Ike Palmut's eyes lit up. Originally, he thought it would take a lot of words, but he did not expect the other party to agree so easily.

"Of course." Guo Shouyun nodded with a smile, "But I still have a few conditions!"

Hearing this, Ike Palmut frowned.

"Please say?"

"First, the financial and personnel affairs of Marvel Entertainment will be handed over to the head office. Second, if Marvel Entertainment suffers major losses, the head office has the right to intervene in the company's management." Guo Shouyun said solemnly.

Financial rights and personnel rights are the two most important rights in business management. Now that he has taken them away, Ike Palmut must be unwilling. After all, no one wants to see the power in his hands shrink.

"Mr. Guo, if I don't have financial and personnel rights, my management of the company will be greatly hindered...!"

"Mr. Palmut, if he wins the hearts of employees through authority rather than convincing business strategies, then I believe he must not be an excellent leader!" Guo Shouyun interrupted, "In addition, Matrix acquired Marvel, It's to improve the company's business, not purely to pursue financial growth. We are operators, not private equity funds! ... And the investment of $200 million a year, the matrix is ​​not without any requirements."

Looking at Guo Shouyun with a firm attitude, Ike Palmut also knew that it was impossible for him to master all the rights of Marvel Entertainment. It is impossible for any one company to give full power to its subsidiaries.

"How much decision-making power can I have in terms of finances and personnel!"

"The investment of less than 1 million US dollars, and the appointment and dismissal of middle-level and lower-level employees!" Guo Shouyun said.

"Can the financial power be improved further?"

"Impossible. $1 million is our average requirement for corporate decision-makers, and this cannot be changed." Guo Shouyun said firmly.

Some places can be regressed, but some places cannot be regressed, especially the crucial financial power and personnel.

In the face of the Matrix Group, which already holds 40% of Marvel Studios' equity and continues to acquire, Ike Palmut actually doesn't have much power to refuse. After all, Marvel has just emerged from bankruptcy, and it is not a high-quality company that everyone desires to own. It is impossible to find a truly powerful white knight to block the acquisition of Matrix.

Also, compare. The power Guo Shouyun gave him was actually very generous. After all, not all CEOs of subsidiaries can get independent management rights.

After weighing the left and right, and after discussing with other Marvel executives for a while, Ike Palmut finally agreed to Guo Shouyun's conditions. The two parties signed a formal acquisition contract with the assistance of their respective lawyers and financial advisors. As long as there are no official obstacles, this acquisition will basically be completed.

Of course, there will be basically no surprises in the official. After all, Marvel is not involved in monopoly. The acquirer is also a US company.

After leaving the finishing touches to Qin Zhicheng's deputy Kane Warner, Guo Shouyun left New York non-stop and flew to San Francisco.

Coming back after more than a month, the executives of Pacific Power and Natural Gas and Southern California Edison Power Company have been waiting for him for a long time.

Pacific Power and Gas, in particular, has accepted his $2.5 billion offer. Because, if you don't accept it, the company will go out of business. At that time, as its shareholder, it will lose a lot, and no one wants to see this situation appear. Moreover, the California government does not want the state's largest utility to fail, which will affect the supply and demand of electricity and natural gas for 5.2 million California businesses and residents. Therefore, they are also very supportive, and Guo Shouyun, who has stronger capital, will acquire and integrate these two companies.

Guo Shouyun's meeting with them unfolded under this circumstance, and he took advantage of it ahead of time.

…

"Mr. Guo, from this moment on, Southern California Edison and Pacific Power and Gas are yours!"

Stephen Bryan smiled when Guo Shouyun signed his name on the $4.7 billion acquisition contract.

"Thank you. This achievement is hard-won. I would also like to thank everyone and your respective companies for their help. Without you, I don't think these two acquisitions would have been completed so quickly." Guo Shouyun said.

"Mr. Guo is very polite. It is our honor to be able to cooperate with you!" John Schwarzman laughed.

Guo Shouyun smiled and nodded, although he knew in his heart that there was endless greed hidden under these kind faces. But at least at this moment, he still needs to be ignorant with the other party.

“…This acquisition of 60.07% of Apple cost a total of $2.8 billion, plus the current acquisition of Southern California and the Pacific, the three acquisitions totaled $7.5 billion. According to our original contract, I need to pay you 20 upfront. $100 million. I keep my promise, and the funds will be credited to your respective accounts within three days at most. In addition, the remaining $5.5 billion will be repaid with the revenue of the three companies, with a ten-year term and 7.93% interest!  …I I think you should have no doubts?"

Stephen Bryan, Paul Turner and other four nodded. The specific numbers have long been known to them.

"If there is no problem, I think we can sign the contract!" Guo Shouyun said.

"certainly!"

The four who were eager to sign the contract earlier, naturally had no opinion on this.

Later, under the drafting and supervision of their respective lawyers, loan agreements and repayment terms were signed one by one.

After everything was over, Guo Shouyun stood up after loading the contract text.

"Everyone, the executives of the Pacific and Southern California are still waiting for me in the conference room, so I can't accompany a few more!"

"Mr. Guo, please, we can just leave by ourselves!" Jolia Mo Yin said with a smile.

"I'm sorry. In the future, I will definitely find an opportunity to invite a few people to dinner to express my apology."

"Then I'm waiting for Mr. Guo's invitation?" John Schwartzman laughed.

"OK!"

He nodded with a smile, shook hands with everyone in turn, Guo Shouyun asked Wendy to bid him farewell, then turned and left the room.

Leaving the original headquarters of the Pacific Corporation, the financial giants sitting in the car inevitably talked about their protagonists.

"It seems that the Hound Project can begin!" Jolia Mo Yin said with a smile while holding the contract text.

The other three nodded, and John Schwarzman sighed: "It's just that compared to before, I feel more and more that this plan is tasteless at all."

"We all underestimated his talent," Stephen Bryan said.

Everyone is an executive of an American financial giant. Although Guo Shouyun's strict guarding, it is impossible to know the exact return of the Thunder Fund in gold. But through powerful database analysis and some clues, some hidden things can still be inferred. Obviously, the gold income of the Thunder Fund is not at all the US$1 billion disclosed by Guo Shouyun before, but 2 billion or even higher.

After the atmosphere in the car became silent, it didn't take long for Paul Turner to open his mouth and said: "Anyway, the layout of the 'Hound Project' has also brought us good benefits. Even if it fails later, the $5.5 billion The loan from the company is also very valuable. If it is made into a 'credit default swap' product, I believe many people will be interested."

"I think 'secured debt obligations' are also a good idea!"

Just when they were discussing how to use this loan to generate more derivative profits, Guo Shouyun also walked into the large conference room of Pacific company headquarters with applause.

In the eye-catching ceremony, Guo Shouyun, who was standing in the center, looked around the executives in the Pacific and Southern California. He was excited and a little excited.

Although the two companies are now heavily in debt, they are on the verge of bankruptcy. But they are mega-corporations with assets in excess of $30 billion, or $70 billion combined. Such companies have enormous power in the political and business circles of the United States. If it wasn't for the unfortunate encounter with the powerful Enron Allies and the destruction of the California energy crisis to the point of near insolvency, with Guo Shouyun's current energy, it is difficult for him to have a hand in a company of this size~www.wuxiaspot.com~ ,correct. With the help of Goldman Sachs, Morgan, Citi and Bank of America, these four powerful financial forces played an almost decisive role in this acquisition.

From the beginning of February to the beginning of May, almost three months, it was finally time for him to reap the fruits of victory. After calming down his slightly excited mood, Guo Shouyun's expression was calm and his eyes were confident: "Everyone, I am also a Californian. I believe that everyone has a certain understanding of me before. Therefore, in order to save time, self-introduction is omitted. If everyone If you have anything you want to know or ask, you are welcome to chat with me after the meeting. I am happy to share my life joys and life insights with everyone. In addition, I am personally very honored to be able to work with you. Let's make our business even greater in the coming years."

After a loud applause, Guo Shouyun continued: "The integration plan of the two companies in Pacific and Southern California is on the information in your hands. Starting today, there will be no Pacific Power and Natural Gas, and Southern California Edison Power. There are only two companies, Pan Pacific Energy Group. The main business scope of the group is energy trading, public utilities and electricity. It consists of three wholly-owned subsidiaries, Pan Pacific Power Company, Pan Pacific Energy Services Company, and Pan Pacific Energy Trading Website.”

As soon as he finished speaking, a serious middle-aged man in a black suit, black-rimmed glasses and hooked nose raised his right hand.

"Mr. Will, any questions?"

"Mr. Guo, originally Pacific Ocean and Southern California Edison did not have energy trading business. Now, does Mr. Guo set up the Pan-Pacific Energy Trading website to imitate Enron and Dalizhi?"
