Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant.

Chapter 212 Investing in GLP

After returning to Xiangjiang from the United States, Qu Li first looked at Zhang Yiwen, whose belly was already growing, and felt inexplicably moved in his heart.It's a pity that the world is in turmoil, and the child's mother doesn't have much free time.

"The GLP board of directors expelled and chairman Sima Jinghan was forced to resign, and he is preparing to sell logistics real estate in the Asia-Pacific region..." Zhang Yiwen said urgently

"Hurry up and get it." Qu Li did not hesitate. Does he know about GLP when he is engaged in logistics real estate?This company is legendary.

"We also have a strong competitor, Singapore GIC, and we also need a helper."

"Who?"

"Hua Tou!"

"Just contact me."

"I'm not convincing enough. The global real estate industry is suffering from the subprime mortgage crisis..."

"What should I do?"

"You help me."

"I, it's not like you don't know, how can I have this ability?"

"You underestimate your own influence. Who can make 5 million euros in a week?"

"You know, it's luck."

Vision Investment is preparing to raise funds, and it must brag. If the two cases of shorting crude oil and longing Volkswagen Group stocks are not convincing, it means that investors have evolved.

"You do not understand!"

"You don't understand Shenma?"

"If you only have Vision and Xiangjiang Investment, that doesn't mean much, but you still have Jumei and Glory." Zhang Yiwen continued to explain.

Qu Li is not only a financial investor, but also an industrialist with ideals and ambitions. He is on a rampage to make a name for himself in North America, which is naturally a bonus.

“Who should I contact?”

"Just Wu Hongning, you are familiar with him anyway."

“Does Xiangjiang Investment need Huatou’s money or connections?”

"The two core figures in GLP Zhongguo, Sima Jinghan and Mei Zhiming, need to see our strength other than money. They want to start a business in China, but it doesn't matter if there is no money in logistics real estate. It doesn't matter, it can't be done."

"What about CICC? Their CEO should be a helper, right?"

"But we don't know each other..."

"It all starts from not knowing each other."

"If they are willing to cooperate, of course I will be happy." Zhang Yiwen did not want to monopolize

Qu Li is now more and more aware of the importance of cooperation. Doing everything alone is a typical example of a small situation and will miss many friends and opportunities.Although it is said that when a tree falls and the hozen is scattered, it is useless to have more friends when you are in trouble, but just like the escort agency in ancient times, it is easier to have more friends, so there is no need to make your career more difficult.

Qu Li quickly contacted the two of them, and they both happened to be free. CICC CEO Zhu Yunlai was in Xiangjiang, and they quickly made an appointment to meet.

"ProLogis Real Estate?" Zhu Yunlai didn't understand this industry.

"The founders of Zhongguo Logistics Real Estate Standards have their presence in many important cities, transportation hubs, key ports, and logistics nodes. Acquisition is the best way." Qu Li explained that Mei Zhiming and Sima are both in Xiangjiang, including Singapore GIC.

"so smart?"

"The important thing is that their team is excellent." Zhang Yiwen continued

"How are you going to work together?"

"Our plan is to acquire the logistics assets and debts of GLP Asia Pacific, and then jointly establish a fund with GLP Chairman Sima Jinghan and the actual head of Zhongguo Company Mei Zhiming to manage these assets..."

"Such a good condition?" Zhu Yunlai didn't dare to treat the two of them as fools, but this condition was surprisingly good.For example, someone acquires Hengda Company, inherits its debts, and then gives the company to Xu Hengda to continue to manage.But such conditions were exactly what the historical Singapore Government Investment Fund GIC agreed to, and then became a legendary GLP.

"Such an opportunity is very rare. We also have a strong competitor, Singapore's GIC. Fortunately, Prologis is short of money this time. Whoever gives you money will have a chance..."

"I agree in principle to this cooperation, but more detailed investigation needs to be done."

"We don't have time. They are short of money to pay off their debts. We can get it done within a week. Just give you three days, that's fine." Zhang Yiwen said domineeringly. She had communicated with Sima Jinghan and Mei Zhiming many times, but had never had the opportunity before. Now the opportunity has come...

"This time we need 13 billion US dollars to acquire GLP's logistics assets in China and Japan. We will need to invest more money in the future. We will also look to China Investment..."

If you dare to ask Huatou for money, you must not only have connections, but the project must also be excellent. If you really want to deceive the country, Huatou is the father-in-law of major industries such as China Construction Engineering Corporation, China Workers and Peasants, how can you survive in the country after losing money?Of course, let alone those with strong connections, Huatou is the one being cheated.

"I'll do it as soon as possible..." Zhu Yunlai didn't dare to agree on impulse.

"Logistics real estate resources cannot be faked. GIC is eyeing it. This matter must be done quickly. We will negotiate with Huatou tomorrow, and then go to Sima and Mei Zhiming the day after tomorrow to finalize the matter. If you are worried, I will ask Vision Investment to discuss it with you. Sign a guarantee agreement and unconditionally take over CICC’s share of this investment at the original price.”

"You don't want to invest in the future?"

"Yuanjing focuses on high-tech fields such as TMT, semiconductors, and new energy, and does not invest in real estate." Qu Li took the initiative to set limits on Yuanjing's investment. There is no such thing as the best of both worlds.

"Okay, I'll vote." With Quli's guarantee, things are easy to discuss. If Honor is going to be listed, it will definitely be a big deal.

Why is logistics real estate repeatedly emphasized? Because of its scarcity, good logistics industrial parks have been occupied, and Jumei Logistics can only rent other people's properties. Rent is fine, but not being able to rent is a big problem.In addition, Jumei Logistics is asset-heavy. How to reduce financial pressure is of course to learn from GLP, which packages the purchased land into funds and sells it to private equity, and continues to have management rights.

To put it simply, it is to buy land and add leverage to expand the scale. After gaining mature experience, you can even buy a logistics real estate worth 10 billion with [-] million.It can play a key role in promoting Jumei Logistics, including overseas expansion.Therefore, Jumei Logistics will definitely invest in the management fund established by Sima Jinghan and Mei Zhiming.

This acquisition of GLP’s logistics real estate worth US$13 billion does not require Huatou’s money, but it will be needed in the future, so Wu Hongning just came to express his position. Where did the US$13 billion come from?Xiangjiang Investment holds a short position of 140 crude oil lots, with 50 lots left. From holding it at US$9 to clearing the position at around US$[-], it has made US$[-] million.

Neither CICC nor Huatou had any objections. Qu Li soon met Mei Zhiming, a key figure in the growth of GLP. Who knows how powerful he is.

"Thank you for your help. Although Singapore GIC has a similar plan, I am more willing to cooperate with you." Mei Zhiming is Chinese. Although the details need to be improved, the cooperation framework has basically been determined:

Xiangjiang Investment and CICC acquired GLP Asia Pacific Logistics Real Estate at a ratio of 8 to 2. Mei Zhiming and others established a new GLP after obtaining GLP brand authorization, and then introduced Xiangjiang Investment, CICC and Jumei Logistics as shareholders.
