Chapter 79 3-Star Group (Part 2)
"Ten percent? I provide you with such high-quality environmentally friendly oil, but you only give me 10 percent of the shares. I feel that you Koreans have been hit by the economic crisis in recent years. You don't know how money is calculated. Yes? I think it is necessary for me to cooperate with Hyundai Group. After all, you are not the only big group in South Korea, but mine is the only one that can produce environmentally friendly oil.” Li Cong showed a look of impatience. During the time, he also learned some business skills, and the environmental protection oil in his hand is the biggest weight. No matter how he uses it, the balance will tilt towards him.
"Look, Mr. Li, 10% of the shares is quite a lot. After all, it is several billion dollars. You don't need to invest any capital to get 10% of the shares of our Korea National Oil Corporation. Such a Where else can I find the matter? As for the Hyundai Group you mentioned, I’m afraid I have to remind you that the unpleasant incident between you and Xiao Kai of the Hyundai Group is basically a secret known to everyone on earth. Will there be no cracks after their cooperation? Although our country does not use as much fuel as China, it can consume hundreds of millions of tons of fuel oil a year. I believe that Mr. Li will become our largest supplier within five years. Why should we go to the Middle East to import? What? We still hope that Mr. Li can think carefully about it, after all, 10% of the share is the limit we can give.” It seems that these sticks really don’t have a clear understanding of themselves, as if they did not trade with themselves. For those who don’t know themselves, I’m afraid they have to report to the central government as soon as they connect with the Samsung Group. We haven’t asked for instructions yet. understandable.
"Well, 10% of the shares will definitely not work. Besides, after we cooperate for at least one year, my production can be consumed domestically within one year. In addition, I will declare first that all payments for goods must be advance payments. There is no Don’t cooperate with me if you have this skill. I don’t want to deal with debts, and the settlement is in RMB. Don’t talk to me about US dollars or the like. You can handle the transportation yourself. This is what our energy group does with other groups. In addition, I can’t decide whether to cooperate or not, I have to wait for the government’s approval.” The other party nodded. After all, after living in China for so many years, he also understands that large Chinese companies are completely different from foreign companies. It’s normal for a boss to be unable to decide. Besides, this is no small business.
"Okay, Mr. Li, if you can inform me at your convenience, our group will send a special person to tell you about this project in detail. I believe this is a profitable cooperation project for both of us." The video conference ended like this But Li Cong's heart is not over yet. Controlling the energy and lifeline of a country has become what Li Cong urgently wants to do. As soon as this idea comes out, he can't control it. After all, his dream is to become the number one person in the world. Guomen can be regarded as his first step, but now his own strength is not enough. It seems that he has a lot of assets of tens of billions, but it is still very small in comparison.
Before Li Cong could react, Blueberry came in. It seems that the National Security Bureau is monitoring him everywhere, "Sir, the people in the Prime Minister's Office are studying this cooperation issue, but there will be instructions soon You, we believe that you will make a choice that is beneficial to the country." Sure enough, it is the same as what I imagined.
"Blueberry, based on your understanding of the government's decision-making, is my business going to work?" Anyway, I'm idle, so it's better to find out first.
"Sir, the country now regards you as its own. To put it too exaggeratedly, at least for now, your contribution to the country is also taken into account. The country may need to use you to take a very important pawn. Go up The country relied on your environmental protection oil to get out of OPEC’s energy threat, and this time I’m afraid it’s up to you to control South Korea.” What Blueberry said is quite true, after all, it’s not a big deal to be able to disclose so much content to Li Cong Allowed above.
"How to control others? Our own output is not enough,
Still want to give it to others? Impossible, if a small amount of the past is probably not enough, the tens of billions of groups can't just fool around with us, right? "Li Cong said depressedly, the country can't throw him another task that cannot be completed, and the country needs you, how much output in a year, then he will collapse directly, and now this task will overwhelm him. Come.
While Li Cong was waiting for the country's decision, the Samsung Group also held a special meeting at its headquarters in Seoul, with the agenda being the acquisition of Korea National Oil Corporation.
"Everyone, our plan has been approved by the Ministry of Commerce. Due to the poor management of our Korean Petroleum Group, we urgently need a successor. We and Hyundai Group are both candidates. We are the only ones in Korea who have the ability to take over such a huge business. Assets, if we can successfully take over, it will bring about a qualitative leap for our Samsung Group, our key issue is the cooperation with China Energy Group, we have to give up some assets to obtain this cooperation.” Zhang Qixiong, Chief Executive Officer of Samsung Group doing an overview.
"Our Chinese representative has already talked with Mr. Li Cong, the chairman of the board of directors of the energy group. I am afraid that a 10% stake will not be able to impress the new richest man in China. Our group can accept a higher share, but the Ministry of Commerce has already It clearly stated that the National Petroleum Corporation must never allow foreign capital to occupy more than 10%, which means that we must be consistent with the Ministry of Commerce when we want to acquire the National Petroleum Corporation." President Jin Yongnan continued.
This is the problem facing the Samsung Group. To take over the National Petroleum Corporation, it must be in line with the South Korean Ministry of Commerce, but after it is taken over, it must cooperate with Li Cong's energy group, otherwise a second-rate country like South Korea It will take a lot of effort for OPEC to fully supply the quota, and Lee calculated from there that it can basically supply South Korea within two years.
"I'm afraid the Ministry of Commerce is beyond our control. After all, the National Petroleum Group is an important economic lifeline industry. We should find a way from the Energy Group. We can give up some shares in other fields to the Energy Group. According to I know that Energy Group urgently needs to gain popularity, and our Samsung (China) has hundreds of stores throughout the mainland, we can use this to exchange for the extra shares of National Petroleum Group, what do you think?" The speaker was Jin Yongnan 20 The seven-year-old daughter, Kim Mi-in, is also a well-known socialite in Korea's high society. What is different from others is that she is the president of Samsung Electronics. She can propose to use her industry to seek benefits for the entire group. It can be seen that she is a character.
Everyone echoed this proposal. After all, there is basically no profit in the electronics industry. Samsung Group has long wanted to transform, but it just didn't find a suitable opportunity for a while, especially in the Chinese market, where the competition in the home appliance industry is obviously high. In several other regions, after all, a batch of domestic products such as Haier and Changhong in China are not easy to eat. In the past few years, they could have a draw. However, in recent years, they have supported South Korea’s Samsung with a series of policies such as home appliances going to the countryside. Electronics no longer have the slightest advantage at all.
"Well, Meiren, I will leave the specific matters to you. You will immediately go to China to discuss this cooperation project with the energy group." The South Korean group has already made a decision, and the domestic government still has to wait for instructions. , the key to the success of the specific cooperation is still in the hands of the government, but Li Cong may have to change his mind if he meets Kim Mi-in. Does Mr. Li have this immunity?
