Rebirth

Chapter 584 New Black Water-Raytheon Company

The large conference room on the top floor of the Century Building was full of people, and the representatives sitting on both sides were playing their eloquence and fighting for their own interests. Even a slight 0.1% is really detailed to the extreme.

At this time, Li Feng was also sitting and watching the appearance of all the characters in the conference room. Such an experience is actually very beneficial to Li Feng. Learning the process of mergers and acquisitions negotiations is still very good for Li Feng’s future improvement in all aspects. .

Seeing that the two parties were arguing and getting into a stalemate over the next issue of their respective interests and shares, Li Feng took a pen and wrote on a small piece of paper in his hand, preparing to tell Rumsfeld and others his opinions.

Up to now, Li Feng has a very clear understanding of Raytheon. After all, with the dispute between the two parties, every department of Raytheon will enter the discussion stage. The same is true for Heishui. During the discussion , I have a more comprehensive understanding of Raytheon.

In the whole year of 1997, according to Raytheon's expectations, net sales of 7 billion US dollars will be realized, which is indeed inferior to this year's Heishui. From this point of view, Li Feng's Heishui is definitely developing at an incredible speed.

Who allowed Li Feng, Rockefeller, Roosevelt and others to seize the opportunity from the transforming Texas Instruments and General Electric Company, making Raytheon depressed to death? It can be said that Heishui is actually stepping on Thor's power.

...

Now the general situation has been basically negotiated, that is, some details. In general, the newly merged company is traditionally called Heishui-Raytheon Company, and the general result is that Heishui occupies almost 60% of the shares of the new company. Thor is naturally 40%.

There are some final details left. For example, Raytheon’s original publishing department, elevator department and other non-core businesses. According to Raytheon’s idea, it is natural to want to merge into the new company, so that Raytheon’s shares can be occupied as much as possible. .

However, these non-core businesses actually have one thing in common on both sides, and that is to sell as much as possible.Since it is going to be sold, Heishui is naturally unwilling. You have to sell it. You still want to occupy shares in the new company, which makes no sense.

At this time, Li Feng thought of a compromise, directly selling the publishing department and other cultural media departments to his own media group, and directly merged into the new company such as the elevator company, and then prepared to operate separately.

There is a more traditional thing in the US military enterprises, that is, because these military enterprises have developed into large comprehensive groups in the early days.Because of this, entering the 1990s and even the beginning of the new century, these companies are facing this transformation problem, and many have dumped most of these non-core businesses.

Among these companies are elevator companies. For example, the famous Otis elevator and air conditioner are owned by Grumman, and the rest include General Electric. Their elevator departments and central air conditioners are actually well-known in China.

With the rapid development of China's urbanization, Li Feng thought, if people can do it, why can't his own Blackwater Thor. The elevator department of Raytheon talks about technology. Not inferior to the elevators of companies such as Grumman and General Motors, so I also thought about getting ready to get involved.

...

I seem to remember that among the major military giants of the United States in the future, although they have adopted measures such as bans on sales in China, there is also a military giant in the US that has taken a detour, and that is United Technologies.

This company has directly established a joint venture and R&D center in China. Of course, it is mainly in the civil aviation field. However, even the cooperation in the civil aviation field has been warmly welcomed by the Chinese government.Li Feng also knew that the passenger aircraft produced by United Technologies Corporation occupies a large part of the original China Airlines purchase list.

In fact, after the merger of Raytheon and Heishui, there was an aircraft company, mainly in the business of civil aviation passenger aircraft and private jets. For cooperation in these civilian fields, there are actually not too many restrictions on the U.S. side. Otherwise, Why United Technologies can do it.

As for the technical issues of the new company, it is not a problem at all. Among the major airlines of the United States, there are a large number of various civil aviation aircraft produced by the two major companies.The two companies together have produced at least 50,000 to 60,000 passenger planes so far.

Similarly, Li Feng is also considering whether he can copy this set of United Technologies Corporation. While making his own money, can he also make a contribution to China Xia? After all, such a joint R&D center is mainly in the field of civil aviation. , But for Huaxia, they are all top technologies.

Of course, including arms sales to Wanwan, these Li Fengs can't stop them. After all, this is a game between the two countries, but at this point, Li Feng is actually happy to see it.

It’s not that Li Feng hoped that the Wanwan side would be completely deadlocked with the mainland. In fact, ordinary people don’t know. Many military technologies of the US were actually passed on the Wanwan side, and then turned a corner but arrived in the interior. .

...

Yes, don’t look at the domestic opposition every time the US imperial sells arms to Wanwan, but in fact, in the eyes of those at the top of the country, whenever the US imperial sells its own cutting-edge technology to Wanwan’s The time is when these cutting-edge technologies are acquired in China.

Okay, sounds funny, but in fact it is.

Today's position of Li Feng can be considered to be able to access some confidential information. For example, two former directors of the CIA joked with Li Feng at a party about such an instance.

It was said that it had just been sold to the top-class aircraft in Wanwan, and within two days there was an accident, and then it crashed into the sea. As a result, when Wanwan ran to salvage, it was empty.

Okay, the plane is no longer found. Could it be that it was really not found in the ocean because it fell into the sea? Obviously not.Although there is no direct evidence, according to the information collected from various sources, according to the statements of the two former directors, it is estimated that they were taken away when they fell into the sea.

As for who took it away, it goes without saying that this is not obvious.

Of course, for these things, only those politicians are yelling over there. For the big arms giants, it really doesn't matter.

Yes, don't look at these arms giants looking like Xianhua, in fact, there is no way, after all, they have to keep pace with the government.

But if the U.S. emperor lifts the ban on current sales, Li Feng can even guarantee that arms dealers will sell all kinds of products regardless of the development of the other party. Nothing is impossible, such as B-2, F1522, or even aircraft carriers. If you can sell it, you can make money.

For the U.S. imperial private companies, this is just a business, but unfortunately, they were all forcedly restricted by the U.S. imperial government.

...

Sure enough, as the note full of his thoughts was handed to Rumsfeld, after the two sides finally discussed it, it was obvious that the two sides took a step back and found their own steps, and finally reached an agreement.

"William, I hope we can cooperate happily in the future!"

Rumsfeld got up with a smile on his face at this time, and he couldn't see what he was doing before, and he stretched out his hand to the team leader of Raytheon, William Swanson.

Yes, in the next newly established company, Rumsfeld will become the president and CEO of the new company and become the number one manager of the new company; and the opposite William Swanson will become the executive vice president and general manager of the new company , Can be regarded as the number two person in the management.

Similarly, as the final negotiations were finalized, Heishui took up 56% of the shares of the new company, and Raytheon took up 44% of the shares. In this way, Li Feng still has almost 7% of the shares. Almost between 37 and 8.

Next is the establishment of the new company’s board of directors. It is necessary to elect the new company’s board chairman and other positions. This is the group of people behind the scenes who really control the company. Of course, different from Huaxia, the chairman of large companies on the US side is generally Will let the CEO concurrently serve.

In Li Feng's view, this is a man of the back.What about the chairman? If the chairman of Huaxia is basically in power, it is not the case in the United States. If the company is not good, the chairman is a brave man.

...

Now that a general agreement has been reached, Rumsfeld first signed with the other party on behalf of the management, and finally Li Feng signed on behalf of the company’s behind-the-scenes shareholders. Heishui and Raytheon are completely merged, which also marks the new Heishui-Raytheon Company. Finally appeared.

"Papa Papa..."

Accompanied by fierce applause, a group of people in suits and leather shoes took up a toast with champagne.
