The Son of Finance of the Great Age
Chapter 722: Lay hidden
Chapter 722 Planting hidden dangers
The ultimatum to the Porsche Group was completed by Zhong Shi, and Gao Dongfang was not accompanied.
Because of some considerations, Gao Dongfang didn't show up when he actually contacted the Porsche Group. Although the Porsche Group has been defeated so far, who can guarantee that the Porsche Group will not intervene after learning of the behind-the-scenes transactions?
Just in case, Gao Dongfang remained hidden behind his back.
"Welcome, Mr. Zhong!"
From the moment Zhong Shi's plane landed at Stuttgart Airport, the Porsche Group launched a grand welcome ceremony. Dozens of brand-new Porsche cars of various models appeared in front of Zhong Shi from the airport. People passing by looked sideways.
Wei Dejin appeared at the airport in person, and greeted Zhong Shi with a wide smile. As if to make up for the cold reception last time, the Porsche Group made an extremely lively event this time, and even found two police motorcycles to clear the way.
"Where are we going?"
Seeing that the scenery on the road is mostly farmland and forests, Zhong Shi vaguely felt that this road did not lead to the city center, so he asked curiously.
"Manor!"
Weidekin said excitedly, "This time I won't go to the company's headquarters, Mr. Porsche will entertain you in the private manor first. Not only Mr. Porsche himself, but all members of their family will be waiting in the manor."
"The show is so big?"
Zhong Shi muttered something in a low voice, then turned his head and looked out the window, but he was thinking in his heart, how to explain the purpose of this trip in a smooth manner, so that Wolfgang Porsche would not be embarrassed tower.
Seeing that Zhong Shi was silent, Wei Dejin tactfully kept his mouth shut.
The convoy was very fast, and it didn't take long to arrive at the private estate of the Porsche family. Located on the outskirts of Stuttgart, Zhongshi, a manor surrounded by lush greenery, has been here before, and this time it is considered familiar.
"Welcome, my friend!"
The moment Zhong Shi got out of the car, Wolfgang Porsche, who had been waiting at the gate of the castle, immediately greeted him, without shaking hands, he just gave a bear hug, "Sorry, my friend, I specially arranged the meeting place here , it is relatively quiet and remote here, and there will be no leaks. At the same time, I would like to introduce my family to you. "
"It's my pleasure!"
Zhong Shi said humbly without changing his smile, and then, under the introduction of Wolfgang Porsche, shook hands with members of the Porsche family one by one.
The Porsche family is a big family, but because of the equity dispute within the family before, all the third generations except Wolfgang Porsche have withdrawn from the management of the Porsche Group. At present, Alexander Porsche, Anton Porsche and Pete Porsche among their third generation have already lived a semi-reclusive life, so their attitude towards Zhongshi is not as enthusiastic as Wolfgang Porsche. Out of the superficial politeness, he disappeared quickly after saying a few words.
As for the fourth generation, Jean Porsche and Rod Porsche are the best of this generation. They are both in their thirties, and they are currently working in the Porsche Group, engaged in design work. After seeing Zhong Shi, the two were very excited, not only because Zhong Shi is currently the key figure in the rise and fall of their family, but also because Zhong Shi itself is a legend, a big man who is enough for them to worship.
"..."
At the end of the line was a little girl who was still holding a baby bottle. She had blond hair and brown eyes, and she looked like a Barbie. She was really cute and playful. When Zhong Shi knelt down and pinched the little girl's cheek, he could only hear a string of German gurgling out of her mouth.
"She is asking you, is it the hero of the Porsche family who came to save their family?" Wolfgang Porsche translated immediately, and after thinking about it, he added, "That's what the little girl said."
"Who knows?"
Zhong Shi looked at Wolfgang Porsche meaningfully, but did not give a clear answer.
After the courtesy meeting was over, Zhong Shi followed Wolfgang Porsche to the study, and Weidekin also followed. The three of them closed the thick door and began to discuss business.
"I heard you are from Wolfsburg?"
Wolfgang Porsche's face was gloomy, so depressed that he could almost drip water, "Mr. Zhong, what kind of conditions does my cousin offer?"
Without waiting for Zhong Shi to answer, Wolfgang Porsche continued: "But it doesn't matter, the conditions he can offer, we promise to be more generous than them."
"The transaction is over!"
Looking at the eager eyes of Wolfgang Porsche and Weidekin, Zhong Shi hesitated for a while in his heart, and finally decided to tell the truth, "Yes, everything is over, we have reached a final deal with the Volkswagen Group, we will not Change it again!"
This news was like thunder on the ground, and Wolfgang Porsche and Weidekin were speechless for a while. The faces of the two turned gray in an instant, and Wolfgang Porsche let out a long sigh, and fell down on the chair.
"why is that?"
Wei Dejin asked excitedly, with a look of unwillingness, "Mr. Zhong, what conditions did the other party offer, we can definitely provide better conditions."
"Yes, you don't blame us for neglecting you last time, do you?"
After a pause, Wei Dejin seemed to remember something, with a wry smile on his face, "My God, couldn't it be because of this reason? Didn't we all agree to pass this test?"
"Of course not for this reason!"
Zhong Shi rubbed his hands, pondered for a while, and then said slowly, "I'm sorry I can't tell you the inside story of the whole transaction. But what I can tell you is that they made a condition that I can't refuse. .”
"Although I am inclined to Porsche, I also have unavoidable difficulties. Please believe me, at least emotionally, I support you, but intellectually, I have to choose Volkswagen Group."
Zhong Shi's painful expression fell into the eyes of the two of them, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.
"May I ask what the reason is?"
After a long silence, Wolfgang Porsche said with a wry smile, "If we are to die, at least let us die to understand."
"Sorry, but I can't, as much as I want to!"
For this request, Zhong Shi resolutely refused, "Although the whole matter has come to an end so far. But have you two heard such a sentence, this is an ancient proverb in China, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge .”
"Ten years is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge?"
Wolfgang Porsche and Weidekin looked at each other, both of them were puzzled. Wei Dejin was the first to ask, "What does this mean? What does it have to do with the situation we are currently facing?"
"Of course it matters!"
Zhong Shi smiled and explained lightly, "This sentence means that if a person wants to take revenge, there is no need to rush for a while. Temporary concessions and patience are for the future. Accumulate strength and wait for the right time. Even if it is Ten years."
"So I advise you two, the temporary retreat is for the sake of a comeback in the future. Don't rush for a while. Sooner or later, the Volkswagen Group will make mistakes. At that time, you can even persuade the Volkswagen Group board of directors to abolish Ferdinand. Piëch is not surprising. .Even, you can control the board of directors of the Volkswagen Group!"
Zhong Shi stared at the two of them with burning eyes, "If there is such a day, what is the difference between this and your acquisition of the Volkswagen Group?"
"It's still like this?"
Wolfgang Porsche pondered for a long time, then suddenly realized, "By the way, Mr. Zhong, what form will your cooperation with the Volkswagen Group take?"
"According to the information I have received, we will contribute part of the capital to acquire the shares of the Porsche Group and exercise the corresponding options of the Volkswagen Group. As for how the Volkswagen Group wants to negotiate with you, it depends on the negotiation between the two of you."
Zhong Shi pondered for a long time, and finally said, "Although you may have to accept the purpose of being acquired by the Volkswagen Group in the end, don't forget that you still have a lot of option subscriptions from the Volkswagen Group on hand."
"What can we do with this option?"
Wolfgang Porsche had recovered from the blow of being abandoned at this time, and after Zhong Shi's enlightenment, he realized that the struggle with Ferdinand Piech had really begun, or the next one Chapter, he swept away the previous downturn, listened intently, and kept asking questions, "If about 10% of the options are exercised, we only have about 10% of the options left, and we have no ability to exercise the options."
"Not available now, does not mean not available in the future!"
Zhong Shi sneered and said, "Moreover, the Volkswagen Group has given us a certain amount of time, that is, they will repurchase all the shares within three years. At that time, we will basically withdraw completely, and it is unknown whether we will support you at that time. The most important thing The most important thing is that you must hold on to this part of the options in your hands tightly, and wait for the right time to throw them out in one fell swoop, and whoever swallows them will have no say."
"Is it possible to do this?"
Wolfgang Porsche gasped and looked at Zhongshi in disbelief. Looking back at his left and right arms, Wei Dejin also nodded heavily, feeling relieved at the moment, a smile finally appeared on his face.
“Maybe it won’t take ten years for Mr. Porsche’s request to be fully realized.”
Seeing that the atmosphere is getting better and better, Zhong Shi added fuel and jealousy, "If they buy you, you can also propose another method, that is, not using cash, but using option exercise. In a certain period of time in the future, Give them the right to exercise their rights. In this way, during the entire acquisition process, only we contributed funds. When they redeem our shares, they will inevitably consume part of the cash. Can the remaining funds support their exercise of rights? , is still unknown.”
"Of course, in this short period of time, the Porsche Group must operate well and accumulate enough funds to be able to exercise the remaining options at that time. This is very important."
Zhong Shi continued to exhort, "When the time comes, find another strong partner, and you will be able to take down the Volkswagen Group in one fell swoop. So the whole matter is far from over. Furthermore, if you are acquired by the Volkswagen Group , you can get in touch with their deepest secrets openly, and then take the opportunity to throw them out in one fell swoop, wouldn't it be twice the result with half the effort?"
"This…"
Hearing this, Wolfgang Porsche and Weidekin both looked horrified. They looked at Zhongshi for a long time, unable to say a word.
Such tricks are too advanced for them. Even though they have been up and down in the business world for decades, they never thought that they could still operate like this.
"But there is one more thing, I'm afraid you have to do it!"
After taking a casual look at Wei Dejin, Zhong Shi said meaningfully, "After the Volkswagen Group acquires Porsche, it will inevitably undergo integration. Maybe you will continue as the chairman, but I am afraid that the position of CEO will be replaced."
"Someone has to take the blame for today's situation!"
Looking at Wei Dejin, whose face was as pale as paper, Zhong Shi shook his head helplessly, "Everything is for the sake of the overall situation, and this is a sacrifice that has to be made."
