Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up

Now that France has made a compromise, it is enough to stop; the rabbit will bite when it is anxious, not to mention that it is still a member of the five permanent members of the United Nations! Taking the initiative to propose an offer for Safran Group shows that you have already acquiesced in the sale; then it is not easy for others to suffer financial losses.

Taking advantage of others' misfortune cannot be done at any time; especially in such a crisis situation in France. In the future, we will increase investment in France. There is no need to make the relationship too tense!

Besides, Heiyun Group's reputation for fairness and impartiality has already been established because of its reputation for being fair and impartial when doing business, because the damage done by a trivial matter outweighs the gain! Of course, if the French dare to speak loudly like a lion, they will never tolerate them; the Gallic rooster is nothing special, and the worst is to break up in two!

Bao Zixuan thought for a while and said: "Currently Safran Group has four core sectors; aerospace propulsion, aerospace equipment, defense-security and communications. I want to know whether to sell the entire Safran Group to Heiyun or split it up sell!"

It is normal to ask this question. After all, Safran Group is so important to France that it is not an exaggeration to call it the cornerstone of the country.

Aerospace propulsion; highly technical, but not unsaleable. Moreover, it is also the most important section of Bao Zixuan, and it is definitely impossible to be picked out.

The same is true for aerospace equipment, and it is impossible to be independent; the same is true for communications business!

The only difficult thing is the security-defense company, which provides almost all the identification friend or foe systems in France. Once it is controlled by the Heiyun Group, the consequences will be disastrous!

It's easy to say anything when the relationship is harmonious, but once the relationship breaks down, then I'm sorry, legal weapons and equipment; in front of the Heiyun Group, there are no secrets at all. It is equivalent to handing over the security of the entire French country to outsiders. No one is that stupid!

Of course, the French interim cabinet minister understood what he meant and brought military industry experts with him to avoid such things from happening.

With one look, the military industry expert immediately understood what it meant; he quickly said: "Mr. Bao, you must already know the Safran Group very well; I won't introduce it in detail here."

"There is no problem in selling the company as a whole package, provided the price is right; but for defense-security companies, some data will be destroyed; it involves the resignation of confidential engineering and technical personnel, I hope you can understand!"

If you want the company to be sold at a good price, it is natural to sell it as a whole package; you cannot let the buyer take advantage of any loopholes. If Bao Zixuan says that the defense-security company is the most important, the price must be cut in half; there is no way to refuse.

The company still remains within the group, but some data is destroyed; the premise is also for French national security, and no one can find fault.

Engineers and technicians resign because they are worried about technical leaks; with the technical strength of Heiyun Group, data can be restored quickly if the original team is retained.

Bao Zixuan thought for a moment and said: "In other words, after the acquisition is successful; the security and defense company still belongs to the group, but the core data cannot be retained."

The technical expert immediately replied: "Yes, that's what it means!"

Since this is the greatest sincerity that Gallic Rooster can show, it is better not to push too hard; if it were him, he would also destroy the core data.

As for taking away important engineering and technical personnel, it is understandable; establishing a new company requires talents.

Bao Zixuan thought for a moment and said: "As of yesterday's close, Safran Group's market value was US$12.8 billion; since part of the core data needs to be deleted, there will naturally be no premium acquisition."

"Heiyun Group can spend US$13 billion to fully acquire Safran Group; and then start the delisting process. As for when to go public, both parties can negotiate!"

Originally, Safran Group's market value was much higher than this, but in recent times, the French economy has been very poor, causing the stock market to shrink severely. Safran is doing relatively well, but other companies have fallen even worse.

The purchase price offered by Bao Zixuan was quite generous, and he had no intention of taking advantage of the situation.

But the French were not very satisfied and wanted to sell it at a higher price. As the most important military industrial enterprise in China, Safran Group is an important weapon of the country; the sale will naturally not be too casual!

Direct delisting would be a heavy blow to the French economy, especially the stock market. Even if the two parties can negotiate a re-listing time, the distant water cannot quench the immediate thirst; attracting Mr. Bao to come over is to solve the core problem.

It is absolutely not possible to have no expression at all after acquiring the company; it must be allowed to participate in the French stock market, thereby enhancing the confidence of investors and the public!

There are too many details to negotiate, and the price still needs to be reported to the country; today is definitely too late!

Even if he is in a hurry, it will not take more than a day or two; the French interim cabinet minister thought for a while and said: "Mr. Bao, we are here with sincerity regarding the sale of Safran Group."

"Your quotation is reasonable; but there are still many details that need to be communicated. Of course, the relevant situation will be reported to the country later. Please give me two days. How about we continue the negotiation the day after tomorrow!"

Unlike Bao Zixuan, the decision can be made directly; even French President Mitterrand did not dare to easily decide the ownership of Safran Group. Therefore, if you can gain more benefits, you must strive for them with all your strength.

As for the two-day buffer period, in the acquisition process of large enterprises, the time is already very short and it is a routine operation.

Bao Zixuan thought for a while and said: "No problem; I will stay in Fujairah in the near future. If I can get some Chinese and Arabic cultural relics, I also want to buy them too!"

He was not worried about the tricks played by the French. At this moment, Bao Zixuan was more thinking about how to appease the Arabs. After all, he was the one who brought others together to impose many restrictions on France; which was equivalent to completely offending the French.

In the end, all the benefits are obtained by you alone, but the bad guys need them to do it; in the end, they need to bear the wrath of the Gallic Rooster, and everyone will have opinions in their hearts!

The Arabs may not be his base, but they are definitely important allies; they are the kind who cannot easily fall out with him.

They must share in the benefits gained from France; only if the benefits are shared equally can cooperation be long-lasting.

Therefore, one Safran Group is definitely not enough; more benefits are needed, and the only way to do this is from the French. In recent times, the Gallic Rooster has been the most unlucky; it’s hard to blame others.

As for the Chinese cultural relics, it was not a spur-of-the-moment idea; it had been planned for a long time. Mentioning Arab cultural relics is mainly to appease the Arabs; although it is far from enough, it is still a thoughtful gesture!

The conversation just now was not hidden from the Second Young Master of Iraq; therefore, everything about the contents of the negotiations between the two parties is clear.

After the Frenchman left, the second young master naturally walked out from behind.

I have a lot of questions, but I don’t know how to ask them at the moment!

Perhaps seeing the dilemma of the second young master, Bao Zixuan said with a smile: "Report to His Excellency the President, we can slowly close the net over there. At the same time, start planning the site and helicopter manufacturing base; the area cannot be too small."

The purpose of letting the Iraqi side close the net first is self-evident; it is definitely interesting to want to remove Iraq first.

After all, the more the French remember it if they survive until the end; the greater the chance of future retaliation. Iraq's strength is not weak, but that depends on who it is compared with; even if the Gallic Rooster is in decline, it is not something that ordinary countries can compete with!

Iraq has a lot of weapons and equipment, but few of them are produced by itself; especially large-scale equipment, all of which must be imported. The establishment of a helicopter factory can instantly enhance the industrial and military strength of the entire country; the war potential will be greatly enhanced.

The first step is to go abroad. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net believes that there will be more important military industrial enterprises to settle in the future; Fujairah is not that big, and Iraq has great opportunities; the premise is to maintain a good relationship with Bao Zixuan!

The second young master did not stay too long and returned to his residence immediately.

Thinking of coming to Fujairah often, I bought a property near the palace; I didn't worry about the phone calls being monitored by Bao Zixuan, at least there was nothing to hide now!

Of course, we can't just inform Iraq. Bao Zixuan arranged for people to send messages to other Arab countries; he said that negotiations with the French were ongoing and everything was going well so far; he asked everyone to wait for the news.

The benefits are also promised a lot, you can eat meat; your partner always has to drink some soup. To be precise, it cannot be regarded as drinking soup. It may be more appropriate to describe it as eating meat together.

Everything is ready, but it depends on whether the French understand current affairs; if they insist on refusing to sell Safran Group, it is so embarrassing; if they dare to play with Black Cloud Group, they will definitely not have a good life. From now on, it will be a fight to the death between the two sides, it depends on who can have the last laugh!
