reborn industrial empire

Mercedes-Benz spent a large sum of US$51 at one time. Their idea is also very simple, that is, to see if these US$5 billion can make Huayang Power excited, and then they can get part of the shares of Huayang Power, even if

If it can arouse the interest of Huayang Power, it is possible that the two parties will finally reach a share exchange and finally form a new cross-holding alliance.

After all, judging from the current market situation, it is not an exaggeration to describe Huayang Power's performance in the market as having unlimited potential. If five billion US dollars can be invested in them, it will not take long for this investment to

You will get corresponding rewards.

Especially for this company, with its insanely rising sales momentum in the Chinese market, as long as they continue to maintain this pace, the investment of five billion US dollars may be fully recovered in less than ten years, and it may even be possible within 10 years.

Within five to six years, this investment can be fully recovered in the form of year-end dividends.

This is the simplest conclusion that Mercedes-Benz's accounting department has reached after calculations. So don't look at the five billion US dollars now. It seems like a lot, but compared with the future returns, this amount of money is really nothing.

.

Once Huayang Power expands rapidly and is able to recoup this investment in the market in just a few years, what is left in their hands will be entirely the shares of Huayang Power. This is

A hugely profitable deal.

Huayang Power's expansion this year has been quite large. Although they have not yet made a request for financing from any private equity funds, venture capital funds or banks, everyone knows that their financial pressure is not small.

So Mercedes-Benz is happy to extend a 'helping hand' to them at this time, but their ultimate purpose is indeed ulterior.

Now it depends on whether Huayang Power is willing to pay for the US$5 billion.

"Of course, we will not ask for any interest on Mr. Jin's five billion US dollars. We only hope to exchange part of Huayang Power's shares."

Miles saw that Jin Xiaoqiang was silent. He thought he was really attracted by the five billion US dollars. After all, any company, even the behemoth General Motors in the industry, would be excited when hearing such a number.

After all, this is a solid five billion U.S. dollars, not 500 million or 50 million. And this is U.S. dollars, cash, not junk like bonds.

Huayang Power's production capacity expansion plan has taken such a big step this year, and there is no news that they have contacted anyone in the financial sector. It can be seen that Mr. Jin does not want his company to be listed.

After all, once a company goes public, it has to hand over part of its control over the company. It seems that this is very inconsistent with the habits of the Chinese people.

Then let's Mercedes-Benz provide them with this fund in exchange for part of their shares. And it's not much, it's just 30%. As long as he agrees, the rest will be easy to handle.

Once Huayang Power wants the bait, it will be easier to handle in the future. Mercedes-Benz has a hundred ways to expand their influence within Huayang Power.

For example, in the future, they can further increase investment and expand their holdings of Huayang Power. As long as they can hold 33.33% of Huayang Power's shares, they can become the company's major shareholder and have the right to claim

If you hold a company's board of directors meeting, you will have a say in the company.

When the time comes, whether Huayang Power will live or die will depend on Mercedes-Benz's thoughts. After all, for a company with internal disharmony, everyone can imagine its development future.

Mercedes-Benz had a good idea, but it was a pity that they ignored that the person they were facing this time was Jin Xiaoqiang. This Huayang Power Company was founded by Jin Xiaoqiang with his own efforts, and his attitude towards this company was different from that of the Ford family.

Ford's attitude is the same, that is, this company is definitely only a family business and will never be open to outsiders.

At present, the mainstream large companies in the world generally operate in two models. One is the elite route, which is to leave the company to talented people to manage, and then the company is a joint-stock company.

The other type is the family management system that implements the patriarchal system. This method has been criticized by the world because of its old method, because this management model is the same as the feudal monarchy system in the past.

A fatuous monarch will definitely lead the company to a dead end.

Therefore, in modern times, Americans have extremely boasted about the meritocracy, that is, a large company spreads its equity as much as possible, and then the leader's position is occupied by the most capable.

But is this really the case?

Is the Morgan consortium in the United States really led by an elite system? Hasn’t the Morgan family always been the driving force behind this company?

Isn't the same true for the Rockefeller Group? You know, these are the two largest and most famous financial groups in the world.

In the industrial world, isn't Ford also a family-run company? There are also Japan's Toyota and Mitsubishi, which are not family-run companies. However, it is these family-run companies that are also running prosperously.

Not the slightest sign of decline.

On the contrary, those elite leadership systems that have been advocated by Westerners have been suffering from frequent internal friction, redundant personnel, large organizations, and slow response after the company became bigger. They were the most severely affected by the financial crisis in 2008.

So at this point in his life, Jin Xiaoqiang has never planned to list his car company or introduce other shareholders to join it.

Therefore, it can be said that Miles's calculation failed this time, and it can even be said that he made a wrong calculation at all.

"Haha, I don't want to continue discussing this issue. Mr. Myers, in fact, we at Huayang Power do not lack funds, and we have no plans to raise financing from the outside world. So if Mercedes-Benz's cooperation proposal is only about this

If so, then we don’t need to discuss it anymore.”

Jin Xiaoqiang directly rejected Miles' proposal, which surprised Miles a little, but he quickly recovered.

Because long before they came to participate in the negotiations with Huayang Power, they had prepared several plans specifically for different situations. They were also prepared for Huayang Power's refusal to finance.

After all, Huayang Power has been rumored to be backed by a large American consortium since its inception, so they are not short of money at all. In addition, they have made a lot of money in the market in the past two years, so their

The capital chain may not be as tight as everyone predicted.

Therefore, Mercedes-Benz can be said to be fully prepared. If Huayang Power rejects their proposal, they will of course prepare another set of arguments.

"Oh? That's right! Haha, okay, then Mr. Jin, do you know if Huayang Power has any better cooperation proposals?"

Miles knew that the negotiations were about to enter the most intense and difficult stage, and based on the intelligence they had previously gathered from Volkswagen and BMW.

In the previous dealings between Volkswagen and BMW and Huayang Power, these two companies suffered a lot and paid a very high price before finally reaching an agreement with Huayang Power, so he knew that Jin

Xiaoqiang is very difficult to deal with.

And this guy is very good at making use of the few cards in his hand. What he has done recently is to replace some of the technologies they want or lack from his negotiating opponents.

In fact, this is what some European manufacturers are most disgusted with, but there is no way, who can let Huayang Power have what they urgently need.

Originally, Mercedes-Benz and BMW did not bother to negotiate such a technology replacement with Huayang Power. However, since the Detroit Auto Show at the beginning of a few years, Huayang Power's turbocharged engines have been discussed and paid attention to by public opinion and ordinary consumers.

focus.

And their turbocharged engines have indeed been recognized by the market after such a long period of market testing. Starting in March this year, Huayang Power's Captain America suddenly began to sell well in Germany.

Got up.

In just seven months now, their Captain America has even sold 120,000 units, ranking second only to the Volkswagen Golf and becoming the second best-selling model in the German car sales rankings.

You must know that Germany is the country in Europe that knows the most about cars and is the most willing to spend money on cars. Now that Captain America is a great success in Germany, it has also led to the hot sales of the Qoros series and other models of Huayang Dynamics in Germany.

Mercedes-Benz has made statistics. As of the negotiation with Huayang Power, four models of Huayang Power have entered the top 20 annual sales of German cars. According to current judgments, the civilian supercars they launched at this auto show are also among the top 20.

It is very likely that he will be selected into this ranks.

This makes Mercedes-Benz feel a sense of crisis. The era of turbocharging of automobile engines is coming.

They have just picked up the first-generation turbocharger, but Huayang Power is already working on the second-generation turbine. This puts Mercedes-Benz and BMW in the same embarrassing situation, that is, as the world's top

A luxury high-end brand, they actually lag behind Huayang Power in the field of turbocharged engines. This is very difficult for Mercedes-Benz and its fans to accept.

And not to mention, they also have an 8at automatic transmission.

Now that people don't agree with your 5 billion financing, you can only wait quietly for the other party to make a move...

"Well, actually, Mercedes-Benz has a lot of technologies that we at Huayang Power admire very much. For example, the ninth-generation Mercedes-Benz night vision system you launched at the Frankfurt Motor Show this year, and your lane keeping system..."

Before Jin Xiaoqiang finished speaking, Miles on the other side felt that his vision was darkened. This killing was really cruel...
