Chapter 1224 Going to Sydney
Shi Qiang was immediately overjoyed and said, "Qixuan Australia?"
Shi Lei nodded and said with a smile: "Of course I hope to continue the Qixuan brand, but I think the other party should think so too. After all, Qixuan UK should be considered a great success, and Australia has always followed the UK. Of course, we must continue this brand. Otherwise, there is no need for the other party to negotiate cooperation with me for such an easy-to-copy project. But if this negotiation can be reached, it will be a bit embarrassing for us to send someone to follow up with the Australian company. The other thing is that Qixuan UK didn't play with those shareholders. They could have ignored it at first, thinking that our project might not be adaptable abroad, so they didn't bother me. But now that Qixuan UK is in full swing, they want to play with the Australian project on their own. "Son, I'm afraid it won't be that easy. So, my initial idea is that we, Qixuan, will cooperate with the other party, and all the shares will be in Qixuan's name, and everyone will benefit from it."
Shi Qiang nodded frequently and said: "Well, when I communicated with those shareholders regularly during this period, they also revealed this meaning. It is an established fact that the UK will be announced, but if we establish new companies overseas, Qixuan Company, they will definitely not sign a letter of intent to give up investment so easily. However, this cooperation with Australia, in terms of funds...? "
Shi Lei waved his hand and said: "The funds must not occupy our Qixuan funds. I will conclude negotiations with Australia as soon as possible to settle the investment and shares there. Then according to the amount of new investment, according to our existing shares Make a match. Those who are willing to pay will enter the game, and those who are unwilling to pay can only say sorry."
"Well, this is a good solution. In this way, the shares will be exercised by Qixuan, but the specific share proportions will be attributed to each person. Mr. Shi, if you have any situation over there, let me know in advance. I'd like to Communicate with those shareholders.”
"You can already start the communication work. There should be no surprises in Australia. After all, the other party took the initiative to seek cooperation, and it was nothing more than a ratio. And the other party is also a person I trust very much. He has a personality I am relatively laid-back and not a person who loves to fight for power. I should just regard this as an investment.”
Without saying a word, Shi Qiang picked up the wine glass and drank with Shi Lei. He immediately stood up and said, "This meal is almost done. I'd better go back to the company first, make a preliminary plan, and then communicate with the shareholders." "
In fact, he was not in such a hurry, but Shi Lei didn't stop Shi Qiang. He knew that Shi Qiang had such a character and always did things in a hurry.
The partner Shi Lei mentioned was of course Huo Chengdong, and it was indeed Huo Chengdong who took the initiative to mention this matter to him.
After just mentioning it, there was no further contact between the two parties, but Shi Lei believed that since Huo Chengdong had spoken about it, he could go and talk about it at any time.
But Shi Lei was not in a hurry to go to Sydney. After so many days, it was not less than these few days.
He first went to Xicheng and stayed for two days in the house he bought for his parents.
Spending time with my parents is one aspect, but mainly I want to see if there is any possibility of discovering anything about the things Mr. Zheng mentioned.
It's just that Shi Zhongping and Gao Yan obviously didn't have time to entertain him. During this period, the company Shi Zhongping and Gao Yan were responsible for passed the initial stage of crossing the river by feeling for the stones, and now it has begun to expand on a large scale.
The company's profits are quite good, and it is naturally very convenient to conduct business. Since the company's establishment does not have many costs other than labor costs, the funds are more than sufficient.
Several cities in the Yangtze River Delta have been covered, and Gao Yan and Shi Zhongping are currently preparing to expand the company's business to the three cities of Didu, Yangcheng and Bao'an. Once these are captured, the remaining second-tier cities will be easier to handle.
Shi Lei was able to stay in that courtyard for two days, but he only had one meal with his parents, mainly because the old couple were too busy.
However, in the past two days, Shi Lei had searched almost every corner of the house and could not find any place where there might be an entrance to the tunnel.
After all, this kind of thing couldn't be rushed, so Shi Lei could only put it aside for the time being, and went to Spring City first to make up for the missed meal with Kong Fandong.
Furthermore, Shi Lei took out 30 million and prepared to hand it over to Kong Fandong. Although this is far from the remaining 300 million he promised to invest, the 30% limit on non-income investments must be used. Ding Yu's side is still less than 6 million short, and this money could have been used in the 30% non-profit investment. But Shi Lei thought about it, and after all, he had just obtained 12 million independent funds from the black card, so it would be better to spend the money on his own.
Unexpectedly, Kong Fandong said that his research institute was not short of funds for the time being, and due to the tripartite agreement between him, Shi Lei and Boiled Water, Shi Lei still had to pay Boiled Water 100 million in exchange for the shares of Qiyue Technology. Kong Fandong said that Shi Lei should first buy the boiled water. The money is paid out.
Shi Lei was embarrassed to say that the 100 million for boiled water could not be paid with the amount of non-profit investment. He had to use his own money, because that was Qi Yue's normal investment.
But there was no way to tell Kong Fandong about this thing, so Shi Lei could only put it aside for the time being. Anyway, this quota cycle has just started less than ten days ago, and there are still more than two months to slowly adjust.
So, I first transferred the more than 5 million to Ding Yu, and classified it into the quota, or used my own independent funds, and then we will wait until the settlement day arrives.
After returning from Chuncheng, Shi Lei adjusted for two days and contacted Huo Chengdong.
Huo Chengdong said that he welcomes Shi Lei to visit at any time, so Shi Lei booked a plane ticket and notified Huo Chengdong of the time of arrival in Sydney in advance.
Huo Chengdong is generally an idle person, quite similar to Yu Banzhi, except that the size of the business is a problem. He has nothing to do most of the time, and mainly stays at home to rest.
He said that after Shi Lei arrives, he will not be busy with negotiations, but will take Shi Lei around Australia first, determine the cities where the Qixuan Bicycle project may be carried out, and then conduct specific negotiations on the company's shares and investment amount.
Shi Lei certainly has no objection to this. After all, Australia is still a country with animal husbandry and agriculture as its pillar industries to a large extent. Many places are actually not suitable for investing in Qixuan Bicycles. It can only be carried out in cities like Sydney and Melbourne. Shi Lei also wants to find out in advance how many cities in Australia are suitable for this project.
After arriving in Australia, Huo Chengdong came to pick him up in person. As he said, he took Shi Lei to visit all the major cities in Australia first.
Then, they went to some relatively less developed cities. They found that among these cities, only the city center could possibly carry out the Qixuan bicycle project. However, since there were farms all around, it was not so suitable to deploy Qixuan bicycles. After all, people are the most uncontrollable factor. If the locals really rode the bikes to the farms, they would be completely idle until the person rode the bikes back to the city again. The utilization rate would be terribly low.
In this situation, although Australia has a large land area, there are not too many cities that are actually worth launching projects, which seems a bit useless.
After returning to Sydney, Huo Chengdong invited Shi Lei to his home, cooked a few dishes himself, and chatted with Shi Lei while drinking.
He opened a bottle of local Australian red wine, which was very suitable for Shi Lei's taste.
