Chapter 1684: Shipyards? (Request Subscription)

Feng Yu didn't know that they were studying the alliance, but Zhengxiong Tortoise came back with news. Sun Zhengyi rejected their terms and insisted on 19 points, so this cooperation was kind of a breakdown.

However, Feng Yu did not care, although there are many software companies under SoftBank, there is nothing irreplaceable. Even Microsoft products can be replaced, let alone less important software.

Meanwhile, Masao Kameda told Feng Yu another important news. Since the release of the news from Feng Yu Holding Group, after intentionally investing in the shipyard, many shipbuilding enterprises have contacted Feng Yu Holdings, hoping that Feng Yu Holdings can be included in the stock.

These include large shipyards, such as cruise ships, as well as yachts that make small yachts, but without exception, they only want the Windstorm Holding Group to participate, preferably even at a low rate, with none offering more than one third of the equity.

Less than a third, Feng Yu would never consider it. Feng Yu originally wanted to hold absolute holdings or even sole proprietorship. Since it can't, then more than 50% of the shares can be held, but also more than one-third at the end of the day?

If more than two-thirds of the stake in a company is held, it is the absolute controlling party that can decide directly on the operation without taking into account the opinions of other shareholders.

Although none of the absolute shareholders existed after the shipbuilding companies sold some of Feng Yu's equity interests, the hidden danger remained, and Feng Yu could not fail to prevent it.

One third of Feng Yu is not very satisfied, let's not say less. If the profits in the financial market are recovered next year, will he be poor?

And as Huaxia's economy improves, so does coastal development, especially coastal tourism, which is very developed, and many landlocked people like to go to the beach and even settle.

Some coastal cities have slogans for sea-view houses, and many cities, even by so-called sea-view houses, can drive significant GDP growth every year.

With more and more millionaires in the interior, it's not surprising to have a yacht like the one on movie TV. Huaxia's yachting industry is on the rise.

In fact, the world's yachting industry has grown very well in recent years, because the global economy has been very good in recent years. Yacht manufacturing companies on this side of Europe and America, every order is handy.

However, due to the economic downturn caused by the subprime mortgage crisis, many yacht orders this year have been yellow and will be even worse next year.

This has led to a sharp drop in profits for many yacht companies, while cost expenditures, such as labour fees, have continued to rise and profits for these yacht companies have fallen dramatically.

Feng Yu had planned to acquire a large shipbuilding company and then one or two smaller yacht brands, which would suffice.

But after Feng Yu arranged it, he realized that the world's leading large shipbuilding enterprises were almost all in Asia, and Europe and the United States could not rank at all.

How can the shipbuilding industry be weak when the high army is so strong in Europe and America?

First of all, Russia, the US and other high-ranking military equipment has already been completed, leading Huaxia a lot. They mainly do technology research and development, but they don't produce much, and the old styles are enough to make sure they're world leader.

Secondly, the island countries, South Korea and Huaxia are vigorously developing ocean operations, with faster growth in demand such as cruise ships, as well as military-military shipyards.

The top ten shipyards in the world, four in island countries, three in South Korea, two in Huaxia, one in the US, none in Europe. If you add up to the top 20, then the South Ocean, India, and so on can come in, so Asia, or the Pacific Rim, is the most developed region of the world's large shipbuilding enterprises.

But many of the smaller shipyards in the US are very profitable, and they're launching one or two best-selling models, just like strategic products, that's enough to make them profitable.

Especially in the case of small boats, such as yachts, Europe and the United States are fully ahead of Asia, island countries, South Korea and Huaxia do not rank well, and there is a ranking in the South Ocean.

So the plan to acquire a large shipyard was suspended by Feng Yu, instead of acquiring a small yacht-making company, which is the overall leader in Europe and the United States.

After the acquisition, two shipyards will be opened on Huaxia's side, and the market will be opened on this side, so there should be no loss.

Ralph et al. have conducted market assessments and believe that the probability of losing money is less than 1 percent, the probability of earning more than 80 percent, and there are certain possibilities for preserving the principal.

If so, why not?

As for the acquisition of shares in the port, this is still difficult. Now global trade is very developed, and the port is the hen that lays the golden eggs, but few people are willing to sell unless their business industry is in financial trouble.

Feng Yu is very calm about this. He did not encounter any difficulties this year. What about next year?

The global economic situation will deteriorate sharply next year, with many small shipyards in previous lives experiencing significant losses next year.

Shareholders in many ports, but also in shipyards, will not sell this year, and next year is unlikely.

And unlike automotive companies, Feng Yu most needed their brands and technology, and then built the factory in Huaxia. So those shipyard losses, even the factory shut down, Feng Yu doesn't care.

As long as the technology is okay, the brand is worth buying without smashing it.

Feng Yu told Masao Torta that there was no rush to discuss the matter. It was only at the end of next year that he was really going to start paying for it.

Since Feng Yu so commanded, Masahiro Kamada also knew how to choose. Just like negotiating a shared car, the longer it takes to tow, the less money it costs. If the other party is willing to sell the technology now, then we can talk about it.

Feng Yu began to communicate with the superiors, and made some preparations in advance. By the time the negotiations are completed, the shipyard can be built first, or even the framework of the shipyard can be worked out first.

……

“President Feng, what did you just say, you want to invest in shipyards?!” Commissioner Bao looked at Feng Yu strangely. Why did Feng Yu suddenly want to invest in this?

Feng Yu leaned against Erlang's leg on the couch: “What's wrong? What's so strange about this? Didn't I say, just to build some small yachts and fishing boats, that we are in a vulnerable position in the world and that countries are not allowed to invest? ”

“It's not against the rules, but you build a fishing boat. How can a yacht make money?” Commissioner Bau hesitated.

“You certainly don't know how many yachts our country imports each year and how big the market is. Besides, I also need a yacht to make my own yard feel more secure.” Feng Yu said lightly.

Commissioner Bao's eyes widened. Is it possible that Feng Woo is investing in a shipyard just to build a yacht of his own satisfaction?
