reborn industrial empire

…………,…………

It seems that Jin Xiaoqiang and his family were not the only ones to do the investigation work beforehand. Of course Jeffrey and his gang also came prepared.

"Haha, n0n0n0 Mr. Jeffrey, you just said that lithium batteries are only in the conceptual stage now, and there is no successful precedent. Moreover, the technology of lithium batteries is not mature yet, and there are not a large number of them on the market.

, so it is true that we are optimistic about lithium batteries at present, but you should also note that this is also abnormal.

The bet is that we are optimistic about the breakthrough of lithium battery technology. If the lithium battery technology fails to make a breakthrough within a few years, what will we do? Can we only serve as a raw material supplier for colored glass?

?I am not very optimistic about this, so I think you should know the risks of this investment better than me."

Jin Xiaoqiang said to Jeffrey with a smile. Although he was very anxious now, it was Jeffrey who he had to block now, who was even more anxious than him.

After all, if he cannot get 200 million Australian dollars in funds before the end of January, it will not be him who will be ruined, but Jeffrey and his gang.

Jeffrey is also in a dilemma. He really wants to get the funds from Jin Xiaoqiang, and he also wants to make concessions in the negotiations, but he is afraid that doing so will make his other two partners,

Feeling uncomfortable.

After all, he was the one who found the person. If he made too many concessions during the negotiation, he was afraid that his partners would feel that he was cheating. By then, even if he had succeeded, he would have succeeded at the hands of Jonathan and his gang.

Here, if we get those big mines, I'm afraid there will be conflicts within the company.

Jin Xiaoqiang also saw Jeffrey's hesitant look. He didn't intend to force Jeffrey too close, so he gave him plenty of time to consider the matter.

Jeffrey thought for a long time, and finally gritted his teeth and said to Jin Xiaoqiang.

"Mr. Jin, let's do this. We can give up up to 35% of the shares of Talisen Lithium Mining Company in exchange for your investment of 200 million Australian dollars. Do you think this is the head office?" Jeffrey said this

, in fact, he had already made a big concession, but in Jin Xiaoqiang's view, he still felt it was not enough, so he decided to take the initiative.

"Haha, let's see, Mr. Jeffrey, we will invest 300 million Australian dollars, of which 200 million will be used to purchase the mines from Jonathan's people, and the other 100 million Australian dollars will be used for the company's future expansion operations, but we need to

Accounting for 45% of the company's shares, what do you think?" Jin Xiaoqiang laughed.

He made his own proposal. If he holds 45% of the shares, he can definitely become the largest single shareholder of the company. Moreover, the holding will not exceed 50%, and it will also not cause any problems from the Australian government.

Note that after all, Talisson is still a little-known small company.

When Jeffrey heard Jin Xiaoqiang's proposal, his eyes lit up. This Jin Xiaoqiang really knows how to do business. He said that an extra 100 million would be used to expand the company's future operations, but no one could see that this 100 million,

In fact, the money is divided among the three shareholders.

If he agrees with the equity allocation, he alone can get 40 to 50 million Australian dollars. This is not a small amount of money, and indeed as Jin Xiaoqiang said, lithium batteries are still just a concept.

The risk of the project is still very high. If everyone holds less shares, it is equivalent to everyone reducing their investment risks in the new company, and now they have cashed out part of the equity. So what would everyone not do?

Well, Mr. Jin, I am indeed very interested in your proposal, but you also know that this company does not belong to me alone. I need some time to discuss it with my partners. I will reply to you tomorrow at the latest. You are optimistic.

?”

Jeffrey wants to go back to Larry and discuss it with Matt. Matt is in Sydney now because he usually spends time in his own laboratory at the University of Sydney, and he can completely talk to Larry on the phone.

Or communicate via video.

Jeffrey believed that convincing the two of them would not be a big problem.

"Okay, no problem, I'm waiting for your good news." Jin Xiaoqiang replied with a smile.

Jeffrey left, and Jin Guozhu pulled Jin Xiaoqiang and asked.

"Son, with 1.8 billion yuan, is it appropriate to hold 45% of the shares of this company?" Before coming to Australia this time, Jin Guozhu brought all the funds in his hand, and then passed them through the bank.

In the form of a mortgage loan, he borrowed one billion yuan. Anyway, he is now a high-quality customer of the bank, and he also has two large mines that make a lot of money every day, so the bank trusts him very much, and there is no problem with the loan at all.

.

Jin Xiaoqiang also transferred 500 million from Huayang Power. In this year's year-end financial summary after New Year's Day, he learned that Huayang Power's profit scale this year reached about 100 million. After excluding various expenses, the net profit

It has reached about 960 million.

Jin Xiaoqiang took out 60 million and distributed it to the management and employees as year-end bonuses. Before he bought Google's shares, he also left 2 billion in funds for the company, although until now

Almost more than 200 million yuan has been spent, but there is still more than 1.7 billion yuan in funds. Even if the company expands next year, this money will be enough.

So his current funds can be said to be very abundant. Dad took 1.5 billion, and he took another 500 million from Huayang Power's profits this year, and planned to come to Australia to do a big business.

The reason why he prepared so much funds is because Australians are famous for going back on their word, so Jin Xiaoqiang brought enough funds this time, which shows that he is determined to win this investment.

"It's appropriate, haha. When the time comes, dad, you will sit as the [chairman] of the company's board of directors, but let them do the command work. Let's watch and learn, don't worry. I believe that it will not take a few years for lithium batteries to be used in

There will be a breakthrough in technology, and by then this company will definitely become our hen that lays golden eggs."

Jin Xiaoqiang smiled and said to Jin Guozhu, although the lithium mine owned by Talison is not the largest in the world like Australia's iron ore, the quality of this company's lithium ore powder is very good.

Moreover, the cost of mining is not high, which is why this company later became the largest supplier of lithium ore in China.

Moreover, if your own electric vehicle project is launched in the future, you will also need a large amount of lithium ore. If you master this company now, your company's electric vehicle manufacturing costs will be reduced a lot in the future.

Early the next morning, Jeffrey came to the hotel early to continue negotiations with Jin Xiaoqiang and the others, but when he came today, he was smiling. It seemed that they had reached a consensus in the communication with his partners yesterday.

.

"Mr. Jin, we have decided to agree to your conditions. If you invest 300 million Australian dollars, you will get 45% of the shares of New Talisen Lithium Mine Resources Co., Ltd."

At the beginning of the negotiation, Jeffrey talked to Jin Xiaoqiang straight to the point.

"Well, that's great, but I would like to know how you distribute the remaining shares?"

"I will hold 25% of the remaining shares, and Larry and Matt will each hold 15%." "Okay, great, but I have one condition." "Huh?

What are the conditions? Can you tell me?"

"If there are shareholders in the company who want to sell their shares in the future, we will have the right of first refusal."

"Haha, don't worry, it's no problem. Everyone is optimistic about this industry. Mr. Jin, I believe Larry and Matt are not that stupid. They want to sell their shares. Even if they do, I will agree to it on their behalf. You will definitely be useful."

Limited right to purchase.”

"Okay, now we can talk about the details of the contract."

Three days later, Jin Xiaoqiang and Jeffrey signed a contract to invest in New Talisen Lithium Mine Resources Co., Ltd. The new contract stated that a company registered in Bermuda under Jin Guozhu's name would become the largest shareholder of New Talisen Company.

A single shareholder owns 45% of the equity, and Jin Guozhu will become the chairman of Talison Company. However, the position of general manager will still be left to Jeffrey, who is familiar with the company's operations.

On the day the contract was finalized, Jeffrey introduced the other two shareholders of the company to Jin Xiao

Qiang and Larry flew here specially from Western Australia, while Matt came here by himself from the laboratory of the University of Sydney.

Compared to Larry, who was short and stocky, Jin Xiaoqiang was more interested in Matt, who was thin and had a bit of gray hair and beard.

The reason why he was interested in Matt was because this guy had a patent for a new solar cell processing technology.

In order to celebrate the successful cooperation between the two parties, they held a meeting this time, but the meeting was held in a low-key manner. It was just a buffet in their original negotiation conference room.

After a brief introduction and conversation, Jin Guozhu, accompanied by Fan Ze, went to deal with Jeffrey and Larry, while Jin Xiaoqiang approached Matt.

"Hello, Mr. Matt, nice to meet you.

"Hello, Mr. Jin, nice to meet you too."

"Matt, uh, can I call you that?" "Haha, no problem, all my friends call me that."

Although Matt is also a scientist, he is much more mature socially than Professor Herries, who studies biological cells. In just a few words, he has narrowed the distance between him and Jin Xiaoqiang.

"Matt, I heard from Jeffrey that you work in the Solar Energy Laboratory of the University of Sydney and have made very good achievements." Jin Xiaoqiang said tentatively.

"Haha, I can't take my achievements seriously. My achievements in solar energy cannot be compared with your achievements in cars. I really like the Eado sedan you developed. To be honest, on the day that car was launched in Australia,

I just bought one.”!.
