Wealthy after rebirth

Chapter 241 What's wrong is not enough to succeed?

Shi Yining felt very surprised, how did he know that the representative of Pohang was even more surprised!
Cui Zhelong, the representative of Posco, only thought that the quotation of Kraken Power was slightly higher than ThyssenKrupp's expected selling price, but he never thought that the overall price was the same as his quotation, which was a bit exaggerated.

The significance of POSCO’s purchase of Inohum Metal Smelting Company mainly lies in the strategic layout. If we want to make profits, we must consider it from the overall perspective. If a company is single-rounded, it is really difficult to pay a [-]% premium profitable.

Sea Monster Power now values ​​Inohum Metal Smelting Company so much, which means that this smelting company has products or technologies that Sea Monster Power urgently needs.

"This gentleman, my humble Cui Zhelong, may I have your surname?"

Cui Zhelong looked at Shi Yining and asked, using English.

Shi Yining didn't know what Mr. Cui wanted to do, but he would not ignore the other person's polite greetings and said in Chinese: "Stone, stone's stone."

"Mr. Shi." Cui Zhelong can actually speak Chinese, his pronunciation is a bit blunt but better than Evans, he said: "I don't know which aspect of the Inohum Metal Smelting Company the sea monster power represented by Mr. Shi has taken a fancy to patents or products."

Facing Cui Zhelong's question, Shi Yining said cryptically, "I'm very interested in the high-strength metal materials from Inohum Metal Smelting Company."

The answer itself is not critical, but the key point is the subject, verb and object of Shi Yining's speech. Obviously Cui Zhelong noticed this, and he found that the other party actually said "I am interested in so-and-so", such words reveal too much information!
Cui Zhelong's heart jumped slightly. According to the other party's words, the young Mr. Shi is at the helm of the sea monster power, so this is difficult.

He thought about it and said: "Pohang's expectation for Inohum Metal Smelting Company is different from that of Mr. Shi. We just regard the company as a strategic layout to open up the European market. If Mr. Shi is willing With a step back, we can sign a follow-up supply agreement."

"I guarantee that Mr. Shi can buy the metal materials he needs at a price lower than the market price!"

Cui Zhelong made a promise with a sincere expression.

It's really not that he is talking nonsense, everything he said is true.

But from Shi Yining's point of view, things are not as simple as the other party said...

Shi Yining's trip to Europe mainly solved two problems, the first was raw materials, and the second was high-precision machine tools. Fundamentally speaking, these two things were technically stuck.

If you are willing to pay, you can buy the metal you need from several metal material companies. The high-precision machine tool is a little more troublesome, but it is not impossible to think of a way.

But this is not the result that Shi Yining wants. He hopes to have autonomy in key materials, even if it requires a huge investment in the early stage. It is better than having the key materials in the hands of others and having to wait and see. Who can bear to cut off the confession at the drop of a hat because of other people's looks...

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cui, I don't think I can agree to your request. Sea Monster Power also needs Inohum Metal Smelting Company very much."

Shi Yining directly rejected Cui Zhelong's proposal.

As a representative of ThyssenKrupp, Anla Keer did not stop the conversation between the two. Since the bidding is open, there will be no restrictions on these things, as long as the final price satisfies the board of directors.

Cui Zhelong shook his head regretfully. His idea was very good. He won an order without increasing the acquisition cost, which is the best of both worlds...

But things are not as good as he thought.

Money, Pohang Iron and Steel Company has it, but if you can spend less money, it is your own ability. Cui Zhelong failed to lobby Sea Monster Power and put the target on ThyssenKrupp...

He talked about Pohang Iron and Steel's layout in Europe to Anla Keer, saying that he would have more in-depth cooperation with ThyssenKrupp in the future, and hoped that they would be given priority at the same price, Barabara...

"Mr. Cui, I'm really sorry. Maybe you don't know something. ThyssenKrupp Group has launched a plan to reduce its share of the steel industry at the beginning of this year. The in-depth cooperation you proposed is difficult to achieve."

Anla Keer was unmoved by Cui Zhelong's proposal, because it completely violated ThyssenKrupp's own plan.

Cui Zhelong was not annoyed by the failure of the lobbying on both sides, and his psychological quality was very good. He spread his hands and said, "Pohang Iron and Steel Company added 500 million euros to the price just now."

It is better to add more money than to break the skin. Cui Zhelong resorted to the method of adding money. After receiving a clear answer, Anla Keer immediately turned to look in the direction of the sea monster's power.

"Ms. Anla Keer, I want to reconfirm some terms and conditions, such as..."

Shi Yining doesn't care about money, but he cares about other things, such as the ownership of technology patents.

Of course, Anla Cole would not be ambiguous about these matters. She took out a very official document to give the sea monster motivation.

Shi Yining hired a professional team to translate and interpret all the materials very rigorously, without any ambiguity, and without playing with words. It can be seen that ThyssenKrupp really wants to sell Inohum Metal Smelting Company.

After confirming the news, Shi Yining stretched out a finger and said, "The power of the sea monster has increased by 1000 million euros."

You have enough money, but you can't spend it indiscriminately. If you can save a little, you can count on it. It's 500 million more than Pohang Iron and Steel.

The expression on Cui Zhelong's face was very serious. Cheng Yaojin came out halfway, which made him feel uncomfortable. The current offer was not far from Pohang's bottom line, and he still had the authority to add another 1000 million.

However, just when he was about to raise the price again, Anla Keer made a gesture to him, please wait a moment, and then took out his mobile phone and listened.

Cui Zhelong was not surprised by this situation. He speculated that maybe the board of directors had something to explain to Anla Keer temporarily.

While thinking about it, he found that Anla Keer would look at him from time to time. Although he couldn't understand what he said, he could tell that it was obviously related to him.

"Did the board of directors of ThyssenKrupp decide to sell Inohum Metal Smelting to us?"

Cui Zhelong couldn't help daydreaming.

Shi Yining frowned, and he also saw that Anla Keer always looked at Cui Zhelong when talking on the phone, which was not a good phenomenon in his opinion.

"Mr. Cui, ThyssenKrupp cannot cooperate with your company because an employee of your company is suspected of theft. I'm really sorry..."

After Anla Keer hung up the phone, he said something that made everyone present puzzled.

Cui Zhelong froze on the spot, the last time he was so speechless was the last time.

"Suspected of theft? What's going on?"

Cui Zhelong asked directly.

Anla Cole pressed a button on the conference table, and then gave an order.

I saw two uniformed security guards escorting an Asian man into the meeting room.

"Xuan Zaicheng?"

One of the representatives of Pohang Iron and Steel Company stood up and looked at the man being guarded by the security in disbelief. He couldn't figure out how his son was controlled by the security.

"This……"

Cui Zhelong suddenly felt ridiculous. Others may not know Xuan Zaicheng, but as his driver, he knows Xuan Zaicheng too well...

"Ms. Anla Keer, I think there must be a misunderstanding. Xuan Zaicheng is my driver, he can't be a thief!"

In normal times, Cui Zhelong would certainly not defend a driver, but this would be different. If Hyun Jae-seong’s theft was confirmed, Posco would lose the opportunity to acquire Inohum Metal Smelting Company !
The people at Sea Monster Power are in the state of watching a movie, while Shi Yining is in the state of watching a movie...

"Hey, this person... isn't this the guy from Bang that I almost tripped over at Hermes that day?"

Huang Jiayan muttered softly.

When the security escorted Xuan Zaicheng into the meeting room, Shi Yining felt that this person looked familiar. After Huang Jiayan said it, he remembered that this person was the man in Hermes on Königsalle in Dusseldorf a few days ago!
Shi Yining thought to himself: "There is indeed a problem with this hanging man!"

According to what Li Jieke said that day, Xuan Zaicheng deliberately touched Huang Jiayan when he was at Hermès. The present scene meets again.

Anla Keer shook his head with a serious expression, and said: "The security department has already copied the video data. Due to the attempted theft, we will not hand him over to the police, but our cooperation has come to an end."

Anrakol's attitude is very clear. Thyssenkrupp will not cooperate with a company with obvious bad records.

There may be many dark places in a big company, but the surface must be bright and bright. Theft, which is not on the table, is really a scandal in a big company. It is uglier than tax evasion of hundreds of millions of dollars...

So far, there is nothing to say, Cui Zhelong took a deep breath, smiled and nodded to Anla Keer, expressing his acceptance of ThyssenKrupp's decision, when he turned his head to look at Xuan Zaicheng again At that time, his face was cold, without a trace of warmth.

Shi Yining looked at the group of Pohang Iron and Steel who walked out of the conference room dejectedly, especially Xuan Zaicheng, who was caught in the crowd, and was a little speechless. This is not typical.

He didn't know the specific fate of Hyun Jae Cheng, but he was not optimistic about it.

"The people who follow you must be of good character, otherwise things will go bad..."

When the door of the conference room was closed again, Anrakol said with a strange expression: "Mr. Shi, I want to remind you that the target of the thief just now was the vehicle you were riding in."

"what?"

Shi Yining was very surprised when he heard An La Keer's words. He only thought he was a spectator, but he didn't expect to be part of the excitement itself...

"Don't be nervous..." An La Keer said quickly: "ThyssenKrupp has a very complete security system, and he was subdued by our company's security personnel before he used the equipment to open the car door, so don't worry. "

Allah Colt didn't say this before, because he didn't want to see Kraken and Pohang Iron and Steel arguing in the conference room, which would not be of any benefit to ThyssenKrupp.

Shi Yining clicked his lips, thinking of Xuan Zaicheng, he felt a very strange feeling in his heart.

Let's say I hate it, it's really annoying, and it's Pengci's own beautiful little secretary, and she's also stealing the car she's riding in.

But no matter how you say it, it is an indisputable fact that the appearance of Xuan Zaicheng successfully defeated a strong competitor and saved him a lot of acquisition costs.

"Well... I want to correct what I said before, he is really 'more failure than success' ah, haha..."

Among the people around her, only Huang Jiayan could understand what Shi Yining was talking about, not even Li Jieke, who was very proficient in Chinese.

Losing the last competitor does not mean that everything is done. What follows is detailed negotiation on price and various details. This aspect involves not only Shi Yining, but also lawyers and the acquisition negotiation team.

After more than half an hour, the two sides reached a final agreement.

Shi Yining bought the entire equity of Inohum Metal Smelting Company at a price of 6000 million euros, owning all of the company's technology patents, in addition to...

The detailed content was written in the lengthy terms, and it took about half an hour to confirm the terms, and finally signed, paid, and the transaction was completed.

The remaining series of procedures will be handled by professionals, so Shi Yining doesn't need to worry about it.

During lunch time, Shi Yining was eating in the company's cafeteria in the Innohum Metal Smelting Company in the western suburbs of Duisburg.

In the small private room for the high-level dining, Shi Yining met with the high-level executives of the smelting company, including two aspects of management and technology.

In the afternoon, under the leadership of the company's senior management, Shi Yining carefully walked around the factory, gaining a more detailed understanding of each link in metal smelting.

During this period, Shi Yining requested various testing tests on a special aluminum alloy and high-strength steel, including temperature, pressure, and tensile strength.

The senior executives were a little nervous. They didn't know what the new boss was going to do. Fortunately, there was no problem with the test results, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Shi Yining also breathed a sigh of relief. These two materials fully meet the requirements for making an engine. At least in theory, there is no problem. Even if there is a slight deficiency in the end, it can be improved through technical means.

"After the orders for special aluminum alloys and high-strength steel are completed, no new orders will be taken, but production should not stop."

Shi Yining made a specific request.

Knowing that the boss also has a power equipment company, the senior executives were not surprised by these requirements, and immediately conveyed the order.

Shi Yining didn't stay too long in the smelting company, and he didn't even listen to the marketing department's plans and prospects for the future. He just increased the annual investment in research and development of new products and then left the company.

At the same time, he also took away two tons of aluminum alloy and high-strength steel from the smelting company.

"The material matter is completely settled, and the next step is to find a machine tool with sufficient precision to manufacture parts!"

Back at the castle, while having dinner, Shi Yining said softly that he didn't plan to stay and would leave for Switzerland tomorrow.

Germany also has high-precision machine tools, but he prefers Swiss machine tools with higher precision.
