Chapter 873 Acquisition of a Gas Company
Chapter 873 Acquisition of a Gas Company
Yang Chen called Pan Qingguo and asked him to report on the gas acquisition situation.
Taking advantage of Huaqing Group's global resource relationships, Pan Qingguo has signed liquefied gas contracts with a total price of 10 billion meters with the United States, Mao Zedong and other countries.
However, this is obviously not enough.
Since we are going to do it, we must make it bigger.
No matter what, we have to buy more than 50 billion meters of gas.
Pan Qingguo said helplessly: "I also want to buy more, but the production plans of those gas manufacturers have not changed. They have to give priority to supplying old customers, and only the leftovers can be given to us. Therefore, they dare not take big orders and can only give a few Billions, more than one billion orders. I think you can go directly to talk to the gas dealer in Maoziguo. After all, Maoziguo has a good relationship with Daxia. If you buy in the name of Daxiaguo company, they will definitely give priority to supply. .”
This is true, but Yang Chen has to worry about those messy things himself.
If Yang Chen needs to do it himself, then why should he give Pan Qingguo a share of the pie?
Wouldn’t it be nice for him to make money on his own?
Isn't the reason why I took Pan Qingguo in to do it because I wanted to use the resources of Huaqing Group to get things done as soon as possible?
Yang Chen only needs to provide money and make suggestions behind the scenes, there is no need for him to act personally.
Now, Pan Qingguo actually asked him to go out and buy gas from Mao Ziguo himself. Isn't that nonsense?
However, Yang Chen didn't say it so directly, and said tactfully: "How can I have time? If I do it myself, I have to set up a team urgently. Negotiation experts, legal department, etc., etc., etc., etc., wait until these people are fully staffed , the opportunity has been missed. Now we need to use your Huaqing resources around the world to get things done as soon as possible. Do you understand?"
Pan Qingguo: "You mean the gas price will rise soon?"
Yang Chen: "The reliable news I have received is that the situation will soon become unstable again. The prices of bulk commodities will definitely rise across the board, especially food and energy, which will definitely increase several times. Time waits for no one. Wait until I prepare myself Great team, the day lilies are cold.”
Pan Qingguo: "Okay, okay, okay... I understand. Then I will suspend all other projects of Huaqing Group and deploy people to buy gas. If it can be doubled several times, I will compensate for the liquidated damages of other orders, and I will also Admit it! Haha..."
Pan Qingguo has prepared 10 billion meters of gold this time to make gas. If the price triples, he can earn 20 billion meters of gold.
You must know that this is only money that can be earned in the next few months. If they use other projects to earn this money, it will take at least 10 years or more.
That's why he dared to suspend other projects and deploy manpower to purchase gas.
No matter how strong the supplier is, as long as they are willing to sell, then sign a contract and buy it.
After hanging up the phone, Yang Chen thought for a while and still felt that Pan Qingguo's suggestion made sense.
Daxia has a very good relationship with Mao Ziguo. If Daxia's company buys liquefied gas, it will definitely get some convenience.
No matter what, there is nothing to lose by trying.
It would be best if we could sign a contract and buy a batch of liquefied gas as soon as possible.
If you don't buy it, there is no loss, except for the travel expenses of some staff.
Compared with a large project worth 50 billion meters, this travel expense is nothing.
However, Yang Chen still won't do it in person, because he really doesn't have enough time.
Therefore, Yang Chen asked Jin Zhina to check which domestic gas manufacturers were relatively strong and buy them directly.
It is best to be a company that has business dealings with Mao Ziguo, so that you can directly use the company's customer resources.
Jin Zhina hurriedly went to apply for it and found two relatively good companies.
One is Yunfeng Gas and the other is Jiufeng Energy.
Among them, Yunfeng Gas is an unlisted company, but it is said to have intentions of going public.
Jiufeng Energy just went public last year and now has a market value of 12 billion and a stock price of 20 yuan per share.
And it is a very coincidence that Jiufeng Energy has recently been negotiating acquisitions with Yunfeng Gas.
The quotation given by Jiufeng Energy is 8 billion, and everything in Yunfeng Gas will be acquired, including the company's main body, employees, customer resources, and even debts.
However, Yunfeng Gas was not satisfied with this offer because last year Datong Gas also offered 8 billion to acquire Yunfeng Gas, but was rejected by the latter.
Now one year has passed, Yunfeng Gas has become even more profitable, and Jiufeng Energy has offered 8 billion to acquire it, which they are definitely not willing to do.
Jiufeng Energy is willing to add some money, but not too much. It will be controlled within 300-500 million.
However, Yunfeng Gas stated that they are also preparing to go public. If they can successfully go public, the market value may not be lower than that of Jiufeng Energy.
Therefore, the expected quotation given by Yunfeng Gas is 12 billion, which is exactly the same as the current market value of Jiufeng Energy.
You know, market value is market value, and actual value is actual value.
Jiufeng Energy believes that Yunfeng Gas is only worth between 8 billion and 9 billion, and it is unreasonable to exceed this range.
Therefore, the two sides are now in a stalemate.
One wants to buy and the other wants to sell, but neither party is willing to compromise on the price.
Yang Chen took another look at the equity structure of Yunfeng Gas.
Chairman Zhao Bing holds 35% of the shares, and his wife Wang Yan holds 20%. They are acting in concert, holding a total of 55% of the shares, and are the company's controlling shareholders.
The remaining 45% of the shares were divided among more than 50 people and companies, so each person or company received very small shares.
Last year's revenue was 5.245 billion and net profit was 220 million.
It can be seen that their rate of return is very low, and they are just making some hard-earned money.
The company's main business is liquefied gas. It imports liquefied gas from abroad and sells it to distributors in China.
Now many rural areas are not allowed to burn wood and straw, and farmers can only use liquefied gas.
Therefore, the company will still have strong profitability within 20 years.
As long as we can open up the rural market, it is not impossible to make a lot of money.
For Yang Chen, the company's advantage is that 60% of its business comes from Maozi Country, and the remaining 40% of its business comes from Southeast Asian countries and Daxia itself.
Yang Chen didn't care too much about revenue and net profit. He only cared that 60% of the business came from Mao Ziguo.
Yang Chen made a quick decision and said to Jin Zhina: "Please help me contact Zhao Bing and his wife. I want to hold a video conference with them to chat."
Jin Zhina nodded and quickly contacted the customer service there according to the phone number on the official website of Yunfeng Gas Company.
Half an hour later, the video conference started.
When Zhao Bing and Wang Yan saw that it was really Yang Chen, they burst out laughing excitedly.
Zhao Bing: "The secretary said that Director Yang wanted to have a video conference with me. I thought I had met a liar. I didn't expect that it was really Director Yang."
Yang Chen: "Hello, Director Zhao, Hello, Director Wang. Do you know me?"
Wang Yan: "Dr. Yang is now a famous person and an idol of the people across the country. Who doesn't know you? I may not know any celebrities, but I will definitely know you."
Zhao Bing: "Yes, Director Yang's glorious deeds of single-handedly killing Wall Street giants will surely go down in history forever. How could we not know you?"
Yang Chen: "Haha... Thank you, thank you, I'm just lucky. I have only one purpose for holding this video conference with you two today. I want to acquire your company. I also found out that Jiufeng Energy is negotiating the acquisition with you. Matters. However, if you talk about it one more time, you will have one more choice. Right?"
