v2 Chapter 438: While the expansion is in progress
After the establishment of FedEx (Earth), it quickly became a courier giant that can compete with United Parcel PS.
Henry is still on his honeymoon at the moment, and his work, including this acquisition of FedEx, was conducted remotely via the Internet or telephone. Henry issued an order requiring FedEx to acquire British Express Logistics, not only to expand the European market, but also to increase Henry's influence in the UK. Although this company is also one of the top ten logistics companies, it ranks low and its market value is not high. The acquisition can be completed as long as more than 500 million US dollars. After all, the UK market is not too big. However, after FedEx has acquired British Express Logistics, it can use the United Kingdom as a bridgehead to target the whole of Europe!
What's more, if Henry does not acquire it, he will be acquired by other companies. In the previous life, Yingyun Logistics was acquired by Deutsche Post.
After Deutsche Post completed the acquisition of the largest logistics company in the UK, EE Logistics (ee1), it became the world's largest aviation, maritime and contract logistics company. Therefore, rather than cheap Germans, it is better for Henry to purchase British Express Logistics himself. After all, Henry is now the Duke of Cambridge in the United Kingdom. How can he sit back and watch British assets be acquired by other countries?
The European market is very large, and Yingyun Logistics is more valued by Henry. Of course, there is still a huge market waiting to be cultivated in the world, and that is China.
Speaking of SF Express earlier, this SF Express was established in Shunde, Guangdong on March 26, 1993, and its founder was named Wang Wei. The company’s early exhibitions adopted a split management model, where the salesperson would treat the work as his own business, and under the leadership of the person in charge of the area, the degree of business expansion was rapid.
After the company was decentralized, Wang Wei didn't have to manage the company. He accompanies his wife every day to drink tea, play golf, and be happy to be a rich man. However, as the number of outlets and personnel gradually increased, the "contracted" areas began to form a situation of their own governance. In some areas, employees only have their own managers, and I don’t know if there are SF’s bosses. However, the behaviors of the responsible persons in some regions are out of the ordinary and cannot be restrained, and the relationship with SF Express is becoming increasingly tense. There is a tendency to form a separatist regime, and even some responsible persons with excessive power and influence can easily take away their business.
Therefore, in order to solve these mess, Wang Wei plans to implement the power takeover operation starting in 1999.
Wang Wei's method of collecting rights is one size fits all, if you want to stay, all the property rights will be repurchased, otherwise you will leave. In order to provide customers with more convenient and safer services, Wang Wei decided that all future SF Express networks will adopt self-built and self-operated methods.
However, the repurchase process requires a lot of funds. This may be Henry’s topic. Before Henry’s journey, this low-key express giant company has never raised funds from outsiders... It is said that Wang Wei has taken all assets that represent the right to speak. Firmly in his own hands, even those who have followed him for more than a decade in his business, Wang Wei will not give a penny of shares. And in the process, he even shut out his father and sister who had worked in the company.
Henry is very doubtful whether Wang Wei can accept his own acquisition?
In short, Henry has already confessed that if the acquisition of SF Express fails, it will directly establish a FedEx branch in China and open the way with strong financial resources. China is still an uncultivated virgin land. The strength of SF Express is not strong enough. It does not even have airplanes and its management is chaotic. Henry's purpose of acquiring it is actually to obtain logistics talents and markets from the other party.
……
Henry’s honeymoon lasted more than two months, and he would not return to Williams Manor until Christmas. This time, Henry will take Kailena and the others around the world, and by the way, he will have a holiday for himself.
From Lanai, go to Tahiti where the flowers are fragrant and the sea is pure, and see "the place closest to paradise"; go to Seychelles, known as the "tourist's paradise" with clear water and blue sky, to taste their national treasure-the sea coconut.
Henry came to Seychelles on this trip, and he was really impressed by the sea coconut.
The sea coconut is one of the three rare plants in the world. It only survives in the Seychelles in the world. Its male flower resembles a male genitalia, and its fruit shape is very similar to that of a female lower body! Just looking at it will increase the secretion of hormonal hormones, and then can't help but blush. Therefore, such a powerful sea coconut is said to be "the most aphrodisiac fruit in the world". The locals also call it the sacred fruit of love.
Some Christians think that if there is any tree that can arouse human curiosity about carnal desire, it is undoubtedly it. Therefore, it is said that when Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden for stealing the forbidden fruit, they did not eat apples, but sea coconuts.
So, when Henry held the sea coconut fruit in his left hand and the male flower in his right hand, and then aligned the position, he felt that his whole person was dirty in an instant! Kelena, Helen and Princess Ulysses covered their mouths and laughed.
Karina immediately picked up the camera and filmed this scene, which became a "shame" that Henry could not wash away in his life! Fortunately, the photos did not circulate, otherwise, the whole person's image is gone.
The local guide cracked the sea coconut fruit~lightnovelpub.net~ The juice in the nut was thick and gelatinous. Henry picked it up and smelled it. The taste was mellow and refreshing.
The tour guide introduced to Henry, "The juice in the sea coconut nuts can be edible and can also be used to make wine. The pulp can be used in a soup to treat chronic cough and has the effect of stopping bleeding. The sea coconut has fine white flesh, delicious and delicious, and can also treat strokes. Mental irritability and other disorders."
Henry asked: "Can sea coconut have an aphrodisiac effect?"
The tour guide laughed and said nothing.
That night, Henry's sexual interest soared, and he "cut" the three women several times until they begged for mercy.
Whether this is the role of the sea coconut is not known.
I spent three days playing in Seychelles. There is no TV, no internet, no computers, no shopping malls, fast food restaurants, coffee shops, here is only the beautiful gold gifted by nature. Here, half of the whole Seychelles As a nature reserve, the air is clear and full of the fragrance of flowers and plants, so that even the simplest breathing has become an enjoyment.
Just when Henry and the others were about to leave, the local government presented Henry with two very precious sea coconut seeds. Henry naturally laughed at such a good thing, and wanted to plant it in Williams Manor, and it would grow fruit later, which would be interesting.
However, what makes Henry depressed is that he was told that the sea coconut grows very slowly, it takes a hundred years to grow, and the fruit takes 7 years to mature. I am afraid that it will not be possible to see the sea coconut grow fruit in Williams Manor.
