I Am a Nobleman in England
Chapter 203: Making money is the rule, profit represe
An empire is overthrown by the enemy and will rise again. But if it disintegrates from within, it will disappear forever.
"Hello, Ms. Angela, this is Corinna. The meeting is over. Okay, I'll rush over right away..."
In the hotel's living room, Angela wearing a red dress hung up, holding a mobile phone in her hand, and walked into the large terrace with a charming smile.
"Is there any good news?" Arthur smiled and said to Angela who came over. She had to say that her dress made Arthur very amazing. It should be noted that the big red dress is not so easy to hold. However, Angela can control it perfectly, not only able to embody the competence required as a female elite, but also so elegant and beautiful.
During this period of contact, Arthur was very satisfied with Angela's various abilities, especially such a smart beauty.
"Yes, the board of directors is over. Corinna has rushed over. She wants to see you." Angela sat down opposite Arthur gracefully and replied with a smile.
"It seems that the meeting is going well, and the completion of the acquisition is not too far away..." Arthur took a sip of the coffee, facing the bright sunshine, and savoring the mellow coffee.
"This time, she will come over to inform us of the actual economic conditions of the power plant so that we can make a more accurate stock price, so that Barclays Bank can more smoothly provide us with funds, and we can also avoid losing money." Angie Latin America's eyes were shining brightly, and she said with a smile.
"Oh? Don't do anything illegal. We have full confidence in this acquisition, and small means are available, but if it affects the risk of the acquisition, then there is no need to do it." Arthur frowned slightly and looked lightly. After giving Angela a glance, he said without warning.
"Boss, don't worry, it's all within the business framework." Angela also replied with a serious expression, "If we succeed in the acquisition of power plants, or the introduction of new capital or direct listing, the surplus will be repeated. Paste. And a larger merger scale means more revenue."
Arthur nodded slightly, and he also had to admit that it was the capitalists who made more money by playing fiercely, and the entrepreneurs known as the industrial tycoons were still just a little diaosi in front of the financial crocodile.
The trilogy of fund-raising, buying, dismantling, restructuring, and listing, and leverage is undoubtedly a magic weapon for small gains and high profits.
About an hour later, approaching 11 o'clock in the morning, Arthur saw Corinna with two assistants, which gave Arthur more respect for the power plant negotiator.
Although Corinna had reached a tacit agreement with Angela before, she did not give up her professional ethics, betrayed the company's interests, and carried out black-box operations.
"...Mr. Bolling, this is the real economic situation of our power plant. To be honest, the purchase price of 400 million pounds seems to be very high, but this price is also a serious underestimation of the coast of Bristol ( The true value of natural gas) power stations.
When Bristol’s coastal (natural gas) power station was established, it was an investment scale of 750 million pounds. It was carried out in three phases. The first two phases of the project have been completed long ago, and the operation is excellent, bringing continuous profits to the power plant. However, due to the financial crisis, the third phase of the project was short of funds, so it was shelved.
Therefore, the current valuation is only generally affected by the financial crisis and is in a downturn. The coastal (natural gas) power station in Bristol is really a very high-quality asset. "
Corinna was serious and serious, and introduced to Arthur, the master very frankly.
"Of course, I very much agree that the coastal power plant is a high-quality asset, otherwise I would not list it as my wholly-owned acquisition target." Arthur nodded and said with a chuckle.
"Hehe, I also understand that you hope that your own interests will not be damaged, and it is best to sell at a higher price. However, Ms. Corinna, the account is not calculated that way. We don’t care what the total investment scale was before, After all, there is still a phase of the project that has not been completed, let alone whether it is in a period of low value, and to be honest, if it is not underestimated, I may not be willing to acquire it.
You know, I am not a fool as an acquirer. Who is willing to do business without profit? Only at the same time, one is an undervalued company, and the other is ample capital. Only then will the barbarian knock on the door, don’t you think? "
Facing the frank and sharp confession of young Arthur, whether it was Corinna or the other two members of the power plant negotiation team who followed her, they shook their heads and smiled bitterly.
To tell the truth, everyone knows that the value of the coastal power plant is underestimated for the purchase price of 400 million pounds, but the government, which cannot hold hands with half of the equity, is willing to sell it for 200 million pounds. The value of coastal power plants is dead.
In the world of capital, making money is the rule, and profit represents justice.
Don't say what should be, what is the original, for speculators, I am sorry, I don't understand what you say!
They have a sharp nose, but they can only smell money, and they have a pair of eyes that are good at spotting, but they can only see money. Wherever there is money, there will be them, where there will be war.
It's no wonder that so young can become a billionaire like a myth. At this moment, Corinna and her two colleagues looked at Arthur with helplessness and doubts.
The expression on Corinna's face changed several times, but in the end she said with a certain determination as follows: "I'm sorry, Mr. Bolin, although it is very presumptuous to ask, I still want to ask, your opinion on the future of coastal power Can the long-term plan of the company be confirmed and implemented? Also, the issue of layoffs..."
The two questions asked made Angela's complexion extremely ugly. She looked at Corinna with some indifference, and looked at the face of her young boss with some worry.
Arthur didn't feel unhappy because of these two presumptuous questions from the other party. He just smiled indifferently and picked up the coffee cup. After taking two sips, he put down the cup and looked at Corinna and said.
"I have heard such an interesting passage. Financial investors, their relationship with the acquired company is like the relationship between people. They are willing to take temporary responsibility for the successful company, but not forever. .
They will live with her, provide for her food and clothing, and raise her beautifully, but they will not marry her home. One day they will turn around and sell her, and then take the money they earned to find another love.
Of course, there are still four things not to become. For example, stocks become shareholders, real estate buyers become landlords, girls become husbands, and consultants become employees. This is a silly thing in their eyes. . . "
While speaking, Arthur also smiled and looked at Angela who was aside, and when Angela heard this, he changed from a cold face to a somewhat dumbfounded expression, shaking his head and laughing.
"Hehe, if I really want to learn to be a financial crocodile, I really should learn the ruthlessness of Wall Street. After all, this is the highest survival rule in the capital world!
However, what I want to be is an entrepreneur who blends into the ranks of capitalists. I will continue to acquire companies, but the purpose of my acquisitions is to gain control, so that I can operate entirely by myself and produce profits.
If the relationship between the capital boss and the acquired company is compared to a qingren~lightnovelpub.net~ then I think the relationship between me and the acquired company is a husband and wife. I want to marry her into the house and call it my surname. In her name, she manages the family together, has children and grows old together.
Even if one day, I finally want to merge and reorganize, even if I agree to the merger and reorganization, I will still run the company by myself. "
Arthur looked at Corinna and her colleagues who were relieved and smiled because of what he said. They seemed to be greatly relieved and shook their heads and smiled.
In fact, whether it's the other party's problem or your own thoughts, it's all nonsense right now. Once the acquisition is completed, it's not what you want, and who can stop it.
After all, the world we live in is like a food chain. There are wolves and sheep. If you keep making yourself strong, moral accusations are naive and useless. Investment is originally an operation against human xing. The higher the requirements for human xing, the greater the achievement that can be obtained.
If you want to become strong, you must at least use reasoning to overcome emotions, goal to overcome YW, and diligence to overcome laziness, so that you will not become a castrated leek.
