Section 176 Acquisition of Japanese Companies

Buffett will have a bunch of friends wherever he goes. Li Cong waited in his room for half an hour before the old man came back with a blushing face. It looks like he didn’t drink less, in fact, the bosses outside The net worth is not thin, but it is a lot worse than someone like Buffett.

"How about it, Mr. Buffett, are you satisfied tonight?" This guy was still drunk when the waiter was supporting him just now. The waiter went out and then awake with two eyes. Li Cong was stunned for a while. It’s just that the stocks and speculations are good, and they are not ordinary people in acting or anything. Perhaps there is no way to go to Hollywood to develop.

"Very good, you Chinese are really too hospitable. There are too many ways to drink. It is to meet and drink and to deepen a few more. In the end, there is actually a wine called "door front cup". I’ve drank the most tonight, but your two daughters are really a pair of angels.” It can be seen that Buffett also likes his daughter very much, but Americans are not as particular as Chinese, I don’t know. Do you have to give a gift for one year old? It's no wonder that people's 0-year history can't be compared with our 5,000-year history.

Li Cong personally made a cup of hangover tea for this old guy. Drinking at this time is obviously not good.

"Oh, you Chinese have ruined this tea. I have been to Japan, and no one there would use this kind of glass to ruin good tea." Buffett said thoughtfully, and Li Cong wondered about the United States. How can people understand the word "spoiled"? It seems that this guy really has worked hard to study Chinese culture.

"I don’t understand this. The Japanese tea ceremony and the like are pediatrics compared to ours in China. They are just fooling around. In fact, they didn’t learn any essence. After learning a little, they will show off with you Americans. Now, we Chinese all know what it means to be humble." Li Cong couldn't make concessions in the face of such a problem. It was related to the dignity of his country. How could he let the little devil climb onto his head.

"Hehe, you Chinese will not bow your heads when you encounter some Japanese-related problems. This is probably a common problem of all Chinese I have seen. Your two countries are really feuds." Buffett If you think about it, indeed, not a Chinese would not understand all of this.

"Hehe, as long as you are a Chinese, you will have the same thoughts as me. People in our society now think that Japan is our friendly neighbor, but I don’t think so. I think this nation will be here sooner or later. The world has been erased. In fact, let alone your success in blocking the yen this time, even if the failure can cause a certain loss to the Japanese, I will not be stingy with the money." Li Cong said this to Buffett. From another point of view, after all, there are not many people who can spend tens of billions out to fulfill one of their own wishes. Based on this, Li Cong, a partner, he wants to make a decision.

"Speaking of this economic crisis in Japan, I estimate that it will take at least five years to return to the pre-crisis level. This is the promissory note of Citibank and UBS. It is 25 billion yuan and 30 billion yuan. But I have a bigger plan to give you the bottom line first, so that you don’t spend all the money." Buffett took a sip of tea, put down the cup and saw that Li Cong's eager eyes were gone. It’s over. Li Cong is a real person. It’s better to go straight to him. It’s better to go straight. After several contacts with Buffett, I also know that Li Cong likes directness and doesn’t like turning around. In a straight decline, buying at this time is very beneficial. It is very helpful for us to grasp the lifeline of Japan’s economy. Among them are brands like Panasonic and Sony that you Chinese like. As far as I know, you are building a large-scale If you win these two brands, it will be very beneficial to you, and let the boss of a well-known Japanese company become a Chinese, or an angry youth like you. Isn’t it a very happy thing? Is it?" Buffett smiled ill-intentionally. He is really an old fox. Li could never refuse what he said, and he was very comfortable accepting it.

"Mr. Buffett, I really don’t know how to answer you. You asked a question that you already know the answer to. Tell me roughly. In fact, I am very, very interested in being the boss of a Japanese company. Don't let me down." Li Cong said, the joy in his heart has leaked out.

"Of course, when have I let you down? Since our cooperation, although my fees have been a little higher, you can definitely get good benefits. For Japan, we must target the six major consortia because they are the most It is possible to return to the pre-crisis level within five years, or even double. The six major consortia have made great contributions to resisting the invasion of national speculators this time, but they have also turned their profits into a pile of waste paper. Japan’s six major consortiums are foreign-powered and mid-skilled. As long as we kill ourselves in the stock market, we can acquire a large amount of their assets at a very low price. After the economy recovers, we can continue to operate or sell for profit. I don’t know. Which companies do you want to acquire?" Buffett may feel that he always said it, but Li asked without saying anything.

"Me?" Li never thought that Buffett would ask this. The meaning of this question is that the Japanese company is a fish, and I am a knife. This is remarkable. Is it already arrogant to this point?

Li Cong is a serious businessman who naturally does not understand the major groups in Buffett’s eyes. Buffett is best at acquisitions and reverse takeovers. As long as there is enough profit, he can launch an acquisition war against all companies and guarantee certain success. , So in his eyes it doesn’t matter which brand, let alone Japan after the financial tsunami.

"There are really a lot of companies that I want. Look at the Japanese companies that are shining in China one by one. I think instead of acquiring multiple brands, it's better to concentrate on acquiring a company, such as the Sony you mentioned just now. Panasonic." Li Cong tentatively asked, these two groups are not "small groups" like the Wangs consortium in Taiwan.

Buffett frowned. It seems that the Chinese boss doesn’t know anything about these acquisitions. No wonder, if Li Cong understands, how could he have 100% full control of the energy group, knowing that it has reached the scale of the energy group. The entire company or the group in the hands of this individual is unique in the entire world.

"Lee, you have to understand that these groups are the leading Japanese companies. You Chinese love the country and the Japanese love their national enterprises very much. We cannot completely acquire a group, even if it is any one, we can only buy Part of the shares, and it is impossible to control most of them. I guess the Japanese will not lose to any of our groups even if they try their best. I think it is better for you to look at my suggestions. The consortiums we acquired include Mitsubishi and Mitsui. Dozens of companies under the six consortiums, such as Sumitomo, Fuji, Sanwa, First Quan Yin, etc. I think the brands you know include Fujitsu, Toshiba, Sanwa Bank, Hitachi Group, Panasonic Group, Mitsubishi Heavy Industries, etc. The subordinates calculated that we can use 10 billion US dollars to buy 30 billion US dollars of stocks, which is almost the same as stealing money." Li Cong blushed after hearing Buffett’s words, but was caught by such a top investor. Criticism is nothing.

"Then do it according to your plan. How do I need to cooperate?" Let's stop talking nonsense about what I don't understand. This old guy still believes in this aspect. "And can I let some people from my company Go to your place to learn experience, you also know that I'm all newbies, can I still go to you if I buy some stocks or something." Li Cong said shamelessly, if you know that to study at Berkshire Hathaway Group He wanted to copy other people's back path, but Buffett said nothing on the surface, and Li Cong should not be offended for such a thing.

"We'll talk about the training for you later. After I went back, I transferred a small team to you. It can definitely handle the acquisition of billions of yuan. And I saw the acquisition by Jiang Qinglan under your hand. It was quite good. It may be a bit naive in the international arena, but in mainland China, it’s perfectly fine.” Listening to Buffett’s changing laws to belittle China’s economic control ability, Li Cong looked disdainful, “Let’s go on to talk about our acquisition. , We can’t make a big fight, and the funds used can’t be too big. The entire acquisition will last about two months and the total amount will not exceed 100 billion U.S. dollars. You and I will each be 50 billion. After the acquisition is completed, I will get 52%. You take 48%." This ratio is much lower than when working with Li Cong before. It seems that there is already some friendship with friends. In fact, what Buffett wants is that even the Skull and Bones will show you good. Follow along.
