Chapter 683 The Allies Are Broken Hearts
Gu Ao knows very well how to grasp the standard between establishing authority and preventing hatred and preventing being suspected of becoming a conspirator.
You earn hundreds of millions of dollars, sing a bad or honor a certain industry, and then when the time is right, you can take advantage of Wang An. This is called visionary and the son of the plane.
If you are stuck in the entire time and every step is completely accurate, then you are called a time traveler. Not to mention being sliced, you will be highly wary of the crowd, and at least you will not dare to cooperate with you.
Therefore, it is very necessary to grasp the degree in the middle.
In the real world, it is not like World of Warcraft. After the reputation is revered, it will be worshipped and capped no matter how it is.
There is no cap in the real world, and worship will go up a little further, and then there will be awe, and then there will be complete, hostile fear, which will overflow.
Gu Ao participated in more than ten days of various business and academic social engagements in New York. After listening to several strategic market analysis from Peterson and his analytical experts, he watched the clock of history enter May 1987, Gu Ao felt that he had to leave in a low profile.
He had a good time playing around with his absence, and returned to China or went to Europe to handle some other business and challenged him to cover up.
To put it bluntly, at least, Gu Ao should not appear in the United States during the day of the stock market crash. Secondly, after the stock market crash, when Wang An's computer stock price avalanches, Gu Ao would better not react as soon as possible. Instead, he should sit down for a few days and wait for Wang An's situation to further deteriorate, and then he would "be late" to react.
This is the reaction speed that normal people should have.
Because Wang'an Computer was an industry giant with a market value of US$40 billion at its peak, if Gu Ao's original motivation was to "take advantage of Wang'an's internal split and poach some resources", instead of deliberately thinking about the whole thing, Gu Ao shouldn't have come up with an acquisition plan as soon as possible.
For such a big business, not to mention spending money, at least it will take a few days to raise money.
How many days does it take to make the draft acquisition negotiation and the conditions for the preliminary offer? They are at least a few thousand pages of legal files. Even if you ask the most awesome lawyer team to help you do the case, you can't get it out in one or two days.
If Gu Ao can take it out too quickly, wouldn’t it be a mistake? It would bring unnecessary hatred from Americans, making Americans feel that Gu Ao is standing behind him, not the mysterious power of the East, which is not the business world.
It’s better not to let Americans think that having such power is better.
...
Fortunately, Gu Ao's business has reached this level and is blooming everywhere. If you pay attention to opportunities, you will always have something to be busy with.
At the end of April and early May, the domestic ship charter king first called Gu Ao several times.
The King of Shipbuilding expressed his apology at the beginning, saying that it was the agreed to go back to Qiantang Heguo to invest in infrastructure facilities. It would be delayed for a few days. The King of Shipbuilding returned to his hometown Mingzhou. The local area was very enthusiastic and accompanied him to his former residence to take care of him in every possible way. He also built a special sanatorium near the King of Shipbuilding's former residence to serve him.
The elders of my hometown gave me such a face, and even the daughter and son-in-law of the chartered boat were intercepted, and they were drinking and chatting with the people in charge of the Port Authority in the North District every day to attract their investment.
Of course, Gu Ao immediately said on the phone that there was nothing embarrassed about this. He was just helping to help the ship charter king to let the ship charter be at his own expense.
This matter delayed the two-week period of the ship charter king. In the end, the local government in Mingzhou successfully intercepted the ship. Before the ship charter king arrived at the provincial capital, he earned 300 million to 400 million yuan to build a large maritime port and Beifeng Port in Mingzhou. The naughty agreement stipulated that the ship charter king's investment was paid with the share of the port income in the next 25 years, and Kowloon Shipping could also give priority to the Mingzhou Port carrier orders.
Considering the great development of Wuyue's maritime foreign trade business in the next 25 years, the investment of the ship charter king will definitely make a big profit. After all, after China joined WTO in later generations, the foreign trade growth of coastal provinces will be explosive, and people in the late 1980s could not imagine it. Just the export of small commodity business in Yiwu County, Wuzhou next door would be enough to fill a huge foreign trade port.
However, this kind of business is ultimately a long-term investment with a very long recycling cycle, just treat it as a blessing left by the ship charter king to his daughter and son-in-law.
After finishing this in Mingzhou, the daughter and son-in-law of the chartered boat king escaped and went to Qiantang, Wuyue provincial capital, and began to communicate with the local government about the infrastructure investments led by Gu Ao.
Although Mingzhou won a budget of 300 million to 400 million yuan in advance, fortunately, the capital flow of the chartered ship king is relatively abundant, so the investment in Qiantang new airport and supporting expressway that Gu Ao had agreed with Gu Ao was still available.
After a little talk about the preliminary terms, Gu Ao also agreed to follow the two projects in Qiantang to support a team (pure financial investment, show sincerity, and will not participate in any subsequent project management), so the daughter and son-in-law of the ship charter king naturally have to wait for Gu Ao to return to China and sit down and have a brief talk before the official signing will be signed.
In addition, the King of Charters also mentioned another matter to Gu Ao on the cross-border phone:
Three years ago, Gu Ao and the Monaco planned to run the French, taking advantage of the opportunity that the French and Brittanians could not double standards when the environmental dispute vents in Narurova Atoll, and they won the land rights of land reclamation in Monaco.
At that time, Gu Ao and the Monacos had no foundation in the shipbuilding and marine engineering industry at all, so Gu Ao raised another amount of funds and resources and commissioned the ship charter king to help develop and build large sand-pulling ships.
The research and development and construction cycle of this project is of course very long, so Gu Ao has almost forgotten the progress of this matter. He himself did not really want to reclaim land and develop real estate in the 1980s.
Because the housing prices in the 1980s were not high enough, no matter which country or city in the world, even the housing prices in Monte Carlo, Monaco were not high enough to make land reclamation and land building villas profitable.
It is precisely because the cycle of this heavy ocean-going project ship is too long that Gu Ao had the excuse to buy a "Princess Caroline" as a temporary measure to "after the Monaco royal family promised his gambling industry license, but did not use land to fulfill this license."
It can be seen that the ocean-going sand-blowing ships need to form engineering production capacity, at least it will be more than the "Princess Caroline" flat-topped Box ships opened at night, which is why it makes sense.
Otherwise, if the "Princess Caroline" has only been open for a year or two, you can be applied in an engineering manner here, and the Americans wouldn't doubt Gu Ao has ulterior motives?
You can't even wait for the time difference of one year or two, so you have to buy a flat-topped boat to make a transition first?
Fortunately, the "Princess Caroline" has been purchased for more than a year and a half, and it has been officially opened for decoration and after the decoration, it has been a year since then. The ocean-going filling ship on the chartered ship has just completed the preliminary outfitting and entered the test, so the difference in time is more reasonable.
The chartering king said on the phone that the new ship will test the effect near Lantau, then make fine adjustments and update the equipment. It is expected that the goods will be officially delivered to Europe at the beginning of next year.
This rhythm is also relatively reasonable. In the 1980s, those engineering ships with 30,000 to 50,000 tons and some technical content had to be built, and the installation time was almost the same after being launched.
The product that Gu Ao wants will also have to be added to the R&D cycle, so the speed is normal now.
The first ship charter king was outsourced to a shipyard he controlled abroad, but the technical information was controlled by the ship charter king. Because the domestic shipyard was still relatively weak and sensitive when the first ship was placed.
However, as long as this is used smoothly and you will make some modifications after summarizing experience in the future, the subsequent ship types can be slowly moved to China for construction. For example, it is okay to place an order for the Jiangnan Shipyard. These are all later stories.
As for the ship charter king, he said that he would first test in Lantau, which is the newly planned international airport of Hong Kong. Historically, most of the new airports in Hong Kong were planned by land reclamation. They were finally delivered and used in 1998 after the return of the first anniversary.
Now, perhaps Gu Ao has had some butterfly effect on Xiangjiang's development planning, and the Planning Agency has also planned more than a year in advance, so there is a bit of news about Xiangjiang's new airport, and the blocks to be reclaimed have been temporarily delineated.
Naturally, the Brittans' black hands in planning are not much less. In history, it cost 9 billion Hong Kong dollars to reclaim the sea alone. It was entirely because before the Brittans left, not only wanted to spend all the remaining fiscal revenues during their rule, but also wanted to issue a large amount of debts before leaving and throw them to the Chinese side to pay back.
However, these are all clichés. Yangyang China is too lazy to argue with them for the prosperity of Xiangjiang. Now that Gu Ao and the King of Charters have joined hands to optimize some reclamation processes, they can save some costs, making the Brittanians unable to waste money even if they want to waste so much in history.
For example, the land reclamation project cost of HK$9 billion can be reduced to 8 billion or 7 billion Hong Kong dollars, and issuing 1 billion or 2 billion less debt is considered a bit of merit. Moreover, because the plan has been more than a year ahead of schedule, the completion should be so much ahead of schedule. Maybe it will be available in July 1997.
These are all trivial matters, not worth mentioning.
Gu Ao said that he would definitely return to China for inspection and inspect it at the time, and asked people from Monaco to come and inspect it at the appropriate time.
...
"Mr. Peterson, the investment market here is fully in your mind. If you see the right time, please help me ship and reduce positions. I am in Monaco, and there are major investment projects to be inspected.
Moreover, I have two or three infrastructure engineering investment projects worth hundreds of millions of dollars in China, and I have to ask about it myself. The chartered ship king has called me many times.
I also want to help Motorola promote mobile phone wireless communication to more cities in China. I am really worried about the friendly economic and trade cooperation and exchanges between China and the United States. Is it easy for me to let so many American high-techs enter China and make money from the Chinese?
So, in the United States, I will not have the energy to take care of it in the next three to five months. You must help me watch it. If you have any accidents, please notify me any time. Oh, by the way, I heard that the election of the All-American State Federation has ended, and Senior Bill has won the State Federation. Unfortunately, I was not here when he took office in July, and I have prepared the gift. Please help me bring it to you at that time."
Before leaving, Gu Ao looked nostalgic for American capital to pay attention to the extravagant lifestyle.
"Mr. Gu, don't worry about returning to China. I believe that with someone as friendly as you, China-US economic and trade exchanges will definitely go smoother." Peter Peterson agreed with admiration and emotion.
