Chapter 763: The First Clash in Shanghai
Chapter 763
Originally, Li Cong came back to China to solve the arms problem, but he didn’t expect to be delayed by a series of things after returning. Fortunately, he still has his own son. Li Er always thought that his father brought him to Shanghai to teach him by example, but it’s a pity He was disappointed, Li Cong just got off the plane by himself, and then told the pilot, "Take the young master and fly directly to Moscow, and inform the eldest lady to go to Moscow as well."
Li Cong is so unruly in his work. This time he will give the two siblings a second exam question. The first one is the reform of the energy group. The two siblings have done very well, and Li Cong is also very good. Satisfied, but the contacts are all insiders of their own group. They will meet all kinds of people when buying arms this time. Although Li Er doesn't take much notice of his father's words, he still stays on the plane honestly and follows It's not bad for my sister to work together, besides, boys are very interested in things like guns.
Li Cong guessed that there would be some troubles in Russia's procurement this time, but the relevant procedures have been completed. This time, Li Cong did not purchase weapons from a group but in the name of the Angolan government. The purchase of weapons between two countries is normal, but it just costs a little more money. Both countries will charge high tariffs. What's more, this purchase is different from the previous one. There are too many heavy weapons, and they are all relatively advanced. Even in the heyday of the Antonov family, they did not dare to grant them to the energy group at one time. Fortunately, it is easier to handle things now than in his heyday. You don’t have that ability. I will go to other people, such as characters like the Vasily family. Under such stimulation, Li Cong believes that his purchase case will be approved. It depends on how his son and daughter will operate.
Li Cong had just arrived at the hotel to rest and won an unexpected guy. This guy is Angula's son Yamisu. This guy also came to Angola with his father, but he has no interest in training the army. After obtaining his father's consent, he came to **, but he did not come empty-handed, but brought Li Cong some very valuable things, that is, their newly mined diamonds.
Li Cong glanced at Ye Misu, this guy was staying in Africa dishonestly, did he come here for leisure, but after thinking about it, he understood what Angula meant. Come by your own side, this is the so-called proton in ancient times, of course, it is not ruled out that the old guy can't control his son and asks Li to watch him.
"Hey, Boss, you really had a good eye back then. The places developed by the Japanese are really tricky. We only developed a marginal area and got so many diamonds. I asked someone to estimate it. If these If all the diamonds are turned into jewelry, they can definitely be sold for hundreds of millions of dollars. There are many diamond mines in South Africa that produce hundreds of millions of dollars a year, but there are not so many in Angola.” These few broken stones are worth hundreds of millions of dollars. dollars? This is simply more violent than the environmentally friendly oil produced by our own energy group.
Li Cong took a good look at these inconspicuous stones after hearing what he said. They seemed to have no luster, but they were just a little more dazzling than ordinary stones.
It seemed that Li Cong did not understand, Yemisu patiently explained to Li Cong the refining process of this diamond. These stones have been processed for the first time in the local area. The kind of lustrous diamonds in China still need at least six processes, but there is no systematic diamond production plant in Angola, so they can only be brought to ** to see if there is any jewelry group willing to cooperate.
As for the hundreds of millions of dollars, Misu also explained that just by polishing the diamonds, it is absolutely impossible to sell hundreds of millions of dollars, which requires a lot of resale. Of course, the most profitable ones are the international jewels that monopolize the source of diamonds. According to Yemisu’s description, the world’s annual diamond mining volume is about 100 million carats, and the retail price is about 10,000 yuan per carat. Theoretically, the annual diamond trade can bring in 1 trillion yuan in revenue. But the actual situation is not like this. According to all statistics, there is only less than 600 billion yuan in transaction volume per year. This involves a quality issue. It is estimated that good-quality and large diamonds can sell for tens of thousands of yuan per carat, or even At the auction, it can be sold for a sky-high price of 100,000 yuan per carat, but some poor-quality diamonds cannot be sold for thousands of yuan. Fortunately, the diamond mine obtained by Li Cong is of high quality and can be sold for a good price.
If the diamonds are handed over to diamond buyers in Africa, they can only cost about 1,000 yuan per carat, unless there are some large diamonds up to several hundred carats, but such things have not appeared for decades. Jewelers in these countries They can be sold for tens of thousands of yuan after processing, and most of the benefits are earned by them.
Li Cong is pursuing the maximization of profits, and he must not let these guys earn so much profit, and he only takes a small amount of money. According to the survey of those little people, this diamond mine is definitely world-class Yes, it seems that I need to cooperate with some diamond merchants, and wait until I know everything before kicking them off and doing it myself.
"It can be seen that you have worked hard in your studies recently. Since your father assigned you to me, you can follow me. But this is not Angola, which is not easy to cause trouble. This is a society ruled by law, and I have to deal with it if something happens. Respect the law, but it can't protect you." In fact, with Li Cong's ability, this guy will find something if he wants to find something, but Li Cong knows that this guy has nothing but courage, so he can't say that, otherwise this kid will still It's no wonder that the whole of Shanghai has to be demolished.
"Hey, thank you Mr. Li for cultivating, I will work hard." After a period of contact, this guy also understood the gap between himself and Li Cong. Anyway, he remembered what his sister told him, and followed Li Cong's steps. I won't be left too far by this world, I have to follow Li Cong's footsteps just to be at the forefront of the world.
Shanghai Peak Restaurant
The Peak Restaurant in Shanghai is the first batch of the Energy Group’s Peak Restaurant system. It has been built for more than five years. It is definitely second to none in Shanghai, where there are many hotels. The place where Li Cong eats is the Emperor’s Garden on the top floor of the hotel. Here A meal costs 880,000 RMB. Of course, there is not only a meal service, as long as it is available at the restaurant on the top of the mountain, you can enjoy it for a day. Although the price is so expensive, there is no shortage of rich people in Shanghai. Therefore, people who order meals can wait until two months later, and this place also represents the highest price of ** catering. Many people eat not food, but their own face. It seems that if you can eat here, you can represent yourself as a rich man. Same.
Li Cong treated guests at such a place, and Li Cong also watched the whole production process. No wonder it can sell for 880,000 RMB. The wine is a five-star Tibetan fairy. It weighs four catties. Of course, this is also the reason why they all belong to the energy group. If outsiders buy it, they will probably pay ten times the price. The vegetables are all airlifted from all over the world, and they are absolutely fresh. They are shipped from Hong Kong. The fresh seafood, the veal from New Zealand, the tender lamb from Argentina, and of course some famous dishes from various places produced in Taiwan, there are sixty-eight dishes for the meal for two people, although it can’t keep up with the Empress Dowager Cixi’s two dishes. There are more than a hundred dishes, but they are considered acceptable. No wonder this place is called Emperor Garden.
Xie Dongyang came to the Mountaintop Restaurant very early. He might put on airs when eating with others, which can show his identity, but he can’t do this with Li Cong. The right to decide who puts on airs is who has more assets .
It was not the first time Xie Dongyang had the most expensive meal of 880,000 yuan, but because of the person he was eating with this time, he still felt a little nervous. When he entered the door, he took two deep breaths and thought about himself. Everything that should be done has been done, and there should be nothing that can make this energy tycoon dissatisfied.
Li Cong found out that Xie Dongyang's drinking capacity was very good, so he didn't use the small cup directly. He used a large cup of three taels to drink with Xie Dongyang's liquor. Usually, if others persuade Dongyang to drink a drink, he would push back and forth, but today It was he who raised his glass frequently to respect Li Cong. If his subordinates saw it, they would definitely feel that they had encountered a ghost.
"I already know what President Xie is doing. Our energy group likes the people we cooperate with very much. I was your biggest partner before, and we will continue to be in the future. Recently, our energy group is planning to invest in the A-share market. It’s about 100 billion yuan, and I hope President Xie can help us guide us.” Qian Bo is touching, this sentence is really true, who would think that he has too much money, Li From one sentence, Xie Dongyang felt that what he did was really right. This sentence can attract hundreds of billions of RMB in investment for several of his financial groups, which is definitely much better than keeping that scourge. The Li family is really rich and powerful.
"Mr. Li, don't worry, the energy group has always been an old friend of our financier club. I will definitely make Mr. Li feel that this investment is worth the money." The president of the organization now looks like a follower of Li Cong.
Now that the conversation started, it was inevitable to talk about Long Ying. At this time, Xie Dongyang immediately told Li Cong all about Long Ying that he knew, and also told Li Cong that the Pujiang Group held by insiders of his club was as high as 100. Fifteen-tenths of the shares were given to Li Cong, and he also said that he specially prepared an investment operation team for Li Cong to deal with Xie Dongyang. Li Cong really felt that it was a comfortable thing to cooperate with such a person. It's no wonder that Longying didn't lose as a domestic aid.
Both the host and the guest had a great time eating a meal. Two people drank three catties of four catties of wine. Xie Dongyang kept saying that if he didn't drink well, he would entertain Li Cong another day. After being sent into the elevator room, Li Cong's eyes showed his usual eyes after Xie Dongyang disappeared. It seems that these wines have no effect on him at all. I thought these financiers were some proud people, no So easy to cooperate with me, now it seems that it is all my fault, and financiers also know that people have to eat.
Long Ying quickly found out about Xie Dongyang's meeting with Li Cong. He is already a bit battered. Today is Friday, and it is also the last day of the stock market this week. The stock price of Pujiang Group has risen from 7.5 yuan to more than 8 yuan. Today, as soon as the market opened, it was pulled to the position of the daily limit by a huge amount of buying orders. At this time, Long Ying thought of the ** price limit system. If there is no such system, I am afraid that my company today will be acquired by someone. Now I own Pujiang The 43% of the group's shares is considered the largest shareholder, but Li Cong has obtained about 2% of the market's tradable shares through today's one-day acquisition, plus 15% of the financier club, now he Already owning 17% of the shares, he is already the second largest shareholder, half of his hard work is now not his own, his own shares do not exceed 51%, and he has no absolute controlling rights. If Li Cong wins over other shareholders when he holds the board of directors, he will definitely be able to put himself on the back foot, and that is the most tragic time for him.
It's not that Long Ying never thought about fighting with Li Cong to get back most of the shares and become the absolute controlling shareholder, but she also thought about what to do if she got it back by herself. Everyone knows that she is on the right track with the energy group, and those ordinary retail investors may I don't know the situation and I will continue to invest in my own group, but those big customers are clear. Up to now, more than 40 customers with assets of over 100 million have requested to break the contract and withdraw, and this momentum is getting worse. , by Monday, it is estimated that the news that the energy group will acquire itself will spread throughout Shanghai. If everyone comes to withdraw their capital at that time, I will definitely not be able to bear it. Jin, he directly sold his shares to Li Cong.
Of course, Longying also has her own plan. The Pujiang Group was founded by herself, and the people inside are all people who have followed her for many years. She only needs to sell the Pujiang Group for a good price, and then rely on her family relationship to be able to Opening a new group, but what Li Cong bought was just an empty shell, and it was an empty shell that was bought with a huge sum of money. Thinking of this, Long Ying felt very happy, and he immediately asked the company's cronies to come During a meeting in her office, seeing that the cronies whom she personally promoted still trust her so much, Long Ying felt that the world hadn't completely gone dark.
Long Cong used Saturday and Sunday to find several other holdings of Pujiang Group. These people quickly sold their shares to Li Cong without saying anything. I bought it at a price of 15% of the market price, and I promised to return it to them at the original price after the acquisition. Everyone knows that after the acquisition of a company, the stock price will rise, and if there is an energy group behind this group, it is estimated that It will be promoted faster. I have a pure interest relationship with Longying. Now Li Cong's price is much higher than that of Longying. I don't need to offend this God of Wealth.
Of course, what Li never knew was that the senior management and some technical backbones of Pujiang Group signed a new memorandum with Pujiang Group, that is, every employee can resign directly when he feels that he is not satisfied with his job. It's normal for employees to resign if they don't want to do it, but in the financial world, if you resign, you can't work in the same job for a few months. The one that cannot engage in the same job within a month.
As soon as the stock market opened on Monday, the Pujiang Group immediately went up by the daily limit, and other stocks in the Shanghai sector also rose one after another. Everyone knows that the head of the energy group is in Shanghai. If you can’t get the Dongfeng of the Pujiang Group, you can only blame yourself for being too stupid Now, Long Ying did not make any resistance at all, but kept releasing the shares in his hands. The current situation is a bit wrong. Even Li Cong, who doesn't know much about finance, feels that the current situation is a bit wrong On the other hand, the think tank suggested that Li Cong suspend the acquisition. The current shareholding ratio of Li Cong is very close to that of Long Ying. Long Ying can only sell his own shares on a small scale, and it can only be traded online. Some of them went into the pockets of energy groups, and a small part went into the pockets of retail investors. As for offline transactions, it was impossible. No one would take over the hot yam left by Long Ying at this time.
"Mr. Long, the energy group has already stopped buying our shares. I guess they want to stop to see the limelight after seeing that you have no counterattack." Long Ying's assistant also observed a phenomenon and immediately reported.
Hmph, this Li Cong is not a person who has been dazzled by his personal feelings. Long Ying also understands that he can stop quietly at this time, and he must not let Li Cong see what he wants to do next.
"Don't move ours, continue to maintain the current posture, and don't suspend other businesses of the group. In addition, I contacted my insurance company in ** and said that I lost tens of billions of yuan because of a large insurance business, and I must do it. It’s only good enough.” Long Ying is a veteran in doing this kind of thing, and his subordinates are not bad, so they went to work immediately.
Soon Li Cong received rumors that Longying had no funds to fight with him because of the affair, God helped me, Li Cong immediately stepped up the acquisition, at this time the secretary told him that Longying had appeared in the group's building Next, looking very tired, he hoped to see Li Cong. Li Cong was unprepared for Longying's arrival. According to his information, Longying was a person who would rather die standing than live on his knees. Did he come to find himself to admit defeat?
