The Pioneer of the Rebirth Era
Chapter 1225 The so-called friend
Just after breakfast in the morning, Yang Dongxu received a call from the United States. After answering the phone, his expression became serious.
"What's the matter?" Driving her son around the room, the elder sister and brother-in-law at the door and the news had already started to go out to play, Zhou Ya found that her husband's complexion was not right.
"The other party is really eyeing us, and this time it may be just a test." Yang Dongxu took a deep breath and said.
In fact, when he heard yesterday that the person who wanted to visit him was from the First Bank, many thoughts popped up in Yang Dongxu's mind. At the same time, I also thought of a possibility that it was a coincidence. After all, Nokia mobile phone shares are hot now.
Although he has only notified Nokia's top management about selling his mobile phone shares for the time being, he wants to exchange these shares in the mobile phone business for shares in Nokia's parent company.
You must know that Nokia's mobile phone business declined after a few years, and even had to sell the first business to Microsoft. Everyone felt that Nokia was really a declining company.
But in fact, they just had to package and sell the business in the first session. However, because the mobile phone business accounted for too much of the company's revenue before, the order of the mobile phone business declined, which was tantamount to being cut off.
But Nokia is still a powerful telecommunications giant, even if its reputation is not as good as that of Motorola, Ericsson, etc., because it is an American giant. But there is definitely someone in the top ten, or even the top five in the world, especially in the Nordic region, where Nokia is still the well-deserved king even without the mobile phone business.
Therefore, at this time, it is not too profitable to replace the shares of Nokia head office with mobile phone shares that will collapse in a few years.
You must know that Nokia's mobile phone shares are in a mess now, and there are a lot of people who exchanged the shares of the head office with him. That's why he disclosed the sale of the stake in the mobile phone business to Nokia executives.
So to complete their own replacement plan, but whether it is that company, or even a high-level country, it is not an airtight existence.
And what American companies are best at is to collect the trade secrets of major multinational giants, and then use them to rob them one by one. So it is normal for Bank One to find out about this deal and prepare to get involved. They are also very optimistic about Nokia's mobile phone business.
However, he also thought that it might be a coincidence, but he still called the United States to inquire. But it turns out that he was not unfounded, and the Citigroup consortium really noticed him.
This incident is still related to the last time he was arrested by the FBI, after all, there was a lot of noise about that incident. Although the United States had to cover up the scandal afterwards, the international media also seemed to signal overnight that they would no longer report any news about the case.
But Yang Dongxu's name has been recorded in the small books of many big men for sure. And with so many people knowing about him, naturally some people were curious about him and began to investigate him.
This investigation naturally found out some different things. For example, after the transaction with Daier, he became very close to the Kennedy family, and the Kennedy family has accepted shares of several powerful companies in the past six months. come out.
Although the acceptance of these shares is reasonable and legal, even if they wanted to find fault, they did not find any gaps to exploit. But Yang Dongxu dug more and more assets like a treasure, which deeply attracted the eyes of these people like jackals.
This call came from someone from the Kennedy family, telling him that someone was investigating him during this period, and the Citigroup consortium was among them.
He also apologized to Yang Dongxu for this matter. In fact, after the investigation, the people of the Kennedy family also broke out in cold sweat. Unknowingly, no one came into the house and was not alert. Could it be that the people who entered the house wiped the necks of the Kennedy family and they still couldn't react?
Family blood inheritance is already the last bottom line of the Kennedy family, but their bottom line is also in precarity now, how can they not panic? While terrified, naturally monstrous anger.
But the anger of the weak will not cause any movement, so the Kennedy family had no choice but to temporarily suppress their anger. And in addition to informing Yang Dongxu that the Citigroup consortium is indeed eyeing him, they also told him a lot of secrets, including about the consortium and politics.
"Should I do it?" Zhou Ya's eyes became serious, and her expression became more and more serious.
"It should be fine for the time being. The most unruly people in the world are concentrated in the middle class, because they want to overthrow the high-level people on top of their heads and replace them. The higher the upper class, the less likely they are to break the rules.
Because the current rules of the game are what they set to be the most beneficial to them. Once broken, no one has the confidence to stand firm in the chaos.
So now even if they are very strong, we still have a bargaining chip to protect ourselves. No matter how bad it is, there is still a strong motherland behind us. There is nothing to be afraid of if everything is done according to the rules, and there is nothing to be afraid of if you want to play outside the box. "Yang Dongxu smiled and hugged Zhou Ya and kissed him on the side of the cheek.
Zhou Ya's basic body slowly relaxed. At this time, the son who was chasing the little beauty Xiang Huzhen in the house suddenly stopped and looked at his parents, and kept scratching his face with his little hands, "shame, shame"
Zhou Ya's face turned red immediately, even her neck turned red.
Yang Dongxu glared at his son angrily.
"How old are you, and you don't pay attention to the next occasion." Aunt Ran Feifei looked at Yang Dongxu teasingly as she reached out to hug Xiao Wenchen.
Xiao Wenchen, who was a little frightened after being glared at by his father, immediately found a backer. She hugged Ran Feifei's neck with one hand, and patted her little face with the other, shouting shyly.
Packed up, Zhou Ya took her son out to play with the elder sister's family and did not disturb Yang Dongxu. Before coming, everyone knew that Yang Dongxu was here to handle work, so they didn't feel anything unusual.
After sending his family out, Yang Dongxu pondered for a moment and took out his mobile phone to dial a number.
Half an hour later, he appeared in an ordinary coffee shop on the streets of Espoo, and a few minutes later Karoo walked into the coffee shop alone.
"I ordered a cup for you, and the freshly ground coffee feels good." Yang Dongxu was drinking coffee at this time, and instead of standing up to shake hands with Karoo, he gestured to Karoo with a cup.
Cafes like this can be seen everywhere on the streets of Europe and the United States, which is a bit similar to the tea stalls in the streets and alleys of China in the early years. But now that the domestic tea stalls have disappeared, such cafes are a bit small like domestic chess and card rooms. No matter in which neighborhood or street, you can see a chess and card room within a few steps, dense and crazy for later generations Some of the rising pharmacies have a fight.
The coffee sold in cafes like this, although there are also well-known brands such as latte and mocha. But what sells more is the freshly ground coffee with personally selected coffee beans is very special, and it tastes no worse than those brand-name coffees.
"What did you ask me out for, about the shares?" Karu looked at Yang Dongxu, and he really wanted to be polite.
But for several days in a row, Yang Dongxu played with his family as if nothing had happened, although everyone knew that whoever spoke first at this time would be at a disadvantage. But this time, since Yang Dongxu asked him out alone, it was obvious that this matter had reached a critical point, and there was no need for him to be hypocritical.
"Yes, and no." Yang Dongxu smiled mysteriously.
"Let's just say it straight. Although I've spent almost all of my time in China these years, I still don't understand the meaning of Chinese many times." Kalu shrugged and said humorously.
"Yesterday, someone sent me a greeting card and wanted to ask me out for dinner. That person's name is Adams Smith." Yang Dongxu wasn't making any detours either.
Carew didn't speak and waited for the following, but when Adams' name came out, he frowned subconsciously. He seemed to have heard of this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"He is the real vice president of the investment department of First Bank. Although I haven't met him yet, I can roughly guess that he is here for my shares in the Nokia mobile phone business, and I want to sell the Nokia mobile phone shares. , only told the company's top management.
Originally, I didn't have to sell it, but I recently made a few large investments to see if I could mortgage them for a turnaround, or sell a part of it. "
If Karoo just couldn't remember where he heard the name Adams and frowned. When Yang Dongxu finished talking about Adams' identity and purpose, he almost stood up from his chair in surprise.
"That. Are you sure?" Carew frowned.
The only reason why he was so shocked was that he was worried about whether Yang Dongxu would sell his shares in Nokia's mobile phone business to the First Bank. Naturally, there is also the matter that the top executives of their own company are not spies.
No one likes a betrayer, especially when the betrayer actually fishes out a piece of meat that belongs to his own pot and gives it to others to eat.
"It's not very sure that I haven't met yet. But this time, in order to spend time with my family, I arranged a long vacation for myself. I have traveled for a long time in various European countries.
Next, I will go to Greece to watch the Olympic Games. It was only a week before I came to Finland that I released the news to several senior shareholders of the company that I wanted to sell some of the shares in the mobile phone business to collect cash. Then, a few days ago, I personally Come to talk.
And just a few days after arriving here, the other party followed and sent a greeting card directly. I don't think it's a coincidence. "Yang Dongxu shrugged.
Karoo's brows furrowed deeper and deeper, and his complexion became more and more dignified. Nokia is a good giant, but the First Bank is not easy to mess with. More importantly, the First Bank is good at investing and is willing to make capital.
In terms of capital advantage alone, Carew doesn't think that the company's top management can take advantage of the First Bank.
"I might ask a few friends to discuss this matter." Karu said.
"I won't send you if you're busy. I made an appointment with the other party to meet in the afternoon, but I won't sign any agreement just to meet. But you know that I need it recently, so you and your friend should give me an answer as soon as possible .”
Hearing Yang Dongxu bite the word 'friend' very hard, Kalu's dignified complexion could not help flashing some embarrassment.
Yang Dongxu is the major shareholder of Nokia's mobile phone business, yes, and even holds a certain share in Nokia's head office. But the top executives of Nokia, even Karoo, who has the closest relationship with him, actually treat him as an outsider from the beginning to the end.
If it weren't for the booming Asian mobile phone market, if it weren't for the number of mobile phones produced by Yang Dongxu's foundry company, it would account for nearly three-quarters of Nokia's advanced mobile phones. Whether he can be a shareholder of Nokia mobile phones in these years, and whether he can safely take huge dividends every year, no one can give a definite answer.
Interest is the eternal theme of this world.
