Chapter 182 The Waterloo of American Enterprises

...The sword met with the four parties in a vigorous and prosperous meeting. The Republic and the American business community were very quiet and quiet.

Business negotiations are about interests, and real interests. After the two governments make a connection, the negotiations become direct dialogue between the business circles of both sides. Unlike national negotiations, business negotiations have rules for business circles, which do not talk about "equal interests. principles, but the principle of "effective interests". Simply put, national games are basically "zero-sum games." Business games generally produce "win-win" or "loss" results.

There is no doubt that business negotiations are more complicated than inter-state negotiations.

The Republic's business delegation consists of thousands of industry elites from dozens of industries and hundreds of industries, including large enterprises such as "Sanjian Group China AVIC Group" and "Ye Hong Group". Although Lin Yanbo, Li Chengwen and Ye Yongji and others did not participate in the negotiations due to their young and healthy reasons, major enterprises have sent supervisors or major shareholders of the board of directors. The scale of the US business delegation is not small, and a total of four people have sent to participate in the negotiations, including Boeing, Ford, Intel, Microsoft, Walmart, and American Exxon, which was originally the largest oil company in the United States, and is now the largest energy company in the United States. Hundreds of representatives from major enterprises such as nuclear power plant construction, power grid construction, power supply equipment manufacturing, etc.

It can be said that the smell of gunpowder in business negotiations is even stronger

After the negotiations began, the companies of both sides "catch and fight" in various industries.

Taking the negotiations between "Sanjian Group and "Mei Exxon Company" as an example. At the beginning of the negotiations, Meixiang offered a sky-high price of US$800 million for its weak nuclear power plant in India, a fission nuclear power plant that accounts for the total domestic share of India, a power supply station that accounts for the total domestic share of India, and a related facility. Sanjian Group only gave a purchase price of US$1,000,000, and only paid cash for the macadamia. Other irrigation was exchanged with minerals controlled by Sanjian Group overseas. If under normal circumstances, such a large price difference would not be discussed at all. Of course, this is not a normal situation, so both sides still have to continue to negotiate.

Since we want to negotiate, we have to take out chips to make the other party give in.

Meihu has always insisted on its market share in India, and this intangible asset accounts for its price. There is no doubt that Sanjian Group does not recognize Meixiong's market share in India at all. The reason is very simple. India is no longer the pre-war India. If Sanjian Group does not purchase Meixiong's assets in India, its so-called "intangible assets" will become worthless.

In response to this situation, Meihu Company first found Ye Hong Group.

Strictly speaking, Sanjian Group is a resource development group, mainly engaged in the development of various minerals. In addition to the mining of rare earth ores, it has no involvement in the energy industry at all. The composite battery production plant invested and opened by Lin Yanbo was not under the name of Sanjian Group, but an independent company.

Among the private energy enterprises in the Republic of China, Yehong Group is the real leader in the industry, mainly engaged in nuclear power plant construction, power grid construction, electric equipment production, power technology development, electronic equipment production and other industries.

Logically speaking, it is not Sanjian Group, but Ye Hong Group, the one who is most qualified to acquire Meihu Zaiyin assets.

So, why is it Sanjian Group, not Ye Hong Group, who is talking to Meihu?

This involves one pound, and a very critical issue. That is breaking.

Since the Concao year, Ye Hong Group has been dealing with Kui Duo's lawsuit, and has been tangled with three lawsuits. If these three lawsuits are lost, Ye Hong Group is likely to be dismembered into several small companies or pay a punitive fine of tens of trillions of yuan. No matter which result, Ye Hong Group will be greatly damaged. Ye Hong Group has not contacted Meihu Company, just wants to get rid of its monopoly reputation. More importantly, if Sanjian Group successfully acquires Meihu Zaiyin assets, it will become an energy company that is comparable to Ye Hong Group, thus making Ye Hong Group thoroughly complete

Get rid of anti-monopoly lawsuits and win three lawsuits that cannot be lost. In this case, how could Ye Yongji be interested in the assets of Meihu in India? Besides, Sanjian Group is strong, and Ye Yongji and Lin Yanbo’s relationship is extraordinary. Even if Sanjian Group does not obtain Meihu in India, it is easy to enter the energy industry with its strong foundation in resource development, especially rare mineral development. Why did Ye Yongji fight against Lin Yanbo even though he knew that it could not stop Sanjian Group from entering the energy industry?

After Ye Hong Group hit a wall, Meihu Company contacted several energy companies in the Republic.

There is no doubt that Meihu Company cannot gain anything.

This is not a negotiation without organization, and Republican enterprises have long been united. According to later information, before negotiations with American enterprises, under the leadership of Lin Yanbo, Li Chengwen and Ye Yongji, hundreds of Republican enterprises signed a "gentleman agreement" in private. The primary purpose is to strive for common interests. If it is to safeguard common interests, some enterprises suffer losses in negotiations, and profit-making enterprises must share their interests with the loss-making enterprises.

Of course, no one can deny that American companies do not have similar "gentleman agreements".

When both sides are united, patience and will.

Obviously, patience and will are not on the side of American companies.

When he was in contact with Meiji Group, Lin Muxun, the negotiator of Sanjian Group, clearly mentioned that Meiji Company's assets in India are all negative assets. If you don't want to negotiate with Sanjian Group, you won't get any benefits in the end.

Lin Muxun didn't lie

: The Jixinshi really doesn't think of anything else. No one can say what India looks like after the war. If the Indian Provisional Government insists on the state-owned policy of Lurajapani, all the assets of the Mei Group in India will be confiscated, whether it is intangible or tangible assets, they will eventually be emptied.

Of course, the US company also has to consider one issue, namely the relationship between the Sanjian Group and the Republic's military.

Although Sanjian Group did not participate in arms production and did not intervene in the military industry, no one dared to underestimate the relationship between Sanjian Group and the Republic's army. First, Sanjian Group is the largest resource developer in the Republic. Military industry is absolutely inseparable from resources. Most of the Republic's army's war is also related to resources; second, Sanjian Group has provided financial assistance to the Republic's army many times. When Lin Yanbo returned to China, he "given tens of billions of dollars, and Lin Yanbo maintained good relations with the senior management of the Republic's army; third, the "Zhongzhong Group" led by Lin Muhua, the daughter of Lin Yanbo is the largest arms enterprise in the Republic, and Lin Yanbo is the major shareholder of the enterprise.

There is no doubt that with the relationship between Sanjian Group and the Republic's military, the assets in the United States in India are even more unguaranteed.

Not to mention anything else, if we can't talk about it, the Republican army will definitely be very happy to blow up Meihu's facilities and create more jobs for India.

This alone will reduce the assets of Meixiang Company in India.

Of course, at this point, there is still a big gap in the price tags offered by both sides.

After renegotiating with Sanjian Group, Meihu Company agreed not to calculate intangible assets and damaged assets, but only existing assets. Lin Muxun certainly would not accept such negotiation conditions. The reason is very simple. Most of Meihu Company's assets in India have no commercial value.

Taking the Penthouse Nuclear Power Plant as an example. The Republic will strategically bomb India's nuclear weapons and will definitely demolish all fission nuclear power plants in India after the war. In order to meet the power demand of India's economic development and people's lives, the Republic will definitely build a controllable fusion nuclear power plant in India. In other words, the strong nuclear power plant of the Meihu Company cannot be considered an asset at all. In the words of Lin Muxun, after Sanjian Group takes over, it will have to spend a huge amount of money to demolish it, so Sanjian Group should not buy it from Meihu Company, but Meihu Company should pay the demolition fee to Sanjian Group. Of course, considering the actual situation, Sanjian Group does not intend to collect this money.

This alone reduced the assets of Zhaohu Company in India by about 400 million US dollars.

In addition to nuclear power plants, the grid that Melo has always insisted on price has also been refuted by Lin Muxun to be worthless.

According to the reasons proposed by Lin Muxun in the negotiations, the grid built by Meihu in India was not forward-looking. It originally won the grid construction contract at a very low price in order to make money in future operations, maintenance and expansion. In other words, Meihu's power grid in India has many problems, such as the transmission capacity can only meet the annual development needs, high daily maintenance costs, etc. In terms of the most important operation, due to the change of the Indian regime, Meihu's monopoly operating status no longer exists. More importantly, India is likely to establish a unified national power supply after the war.

Grid management companies, each power supplier is only responsible for providing electricity to customers, and does not undertake the construction and maintenance of the power grid. In other words, Meihu's operating rights in the Indian power grid field are no longer available. Although Lin Muxun also admitted that after Sanjian Group bought Meihu's power grid facilities in India, it could be sold to the Indian government or the Indian government's state grid company to make profits. However, the profits that can be obtained are very limited. Lin Muxun's view on this is very simple. If Meixiong believes that Sanjian Group's offer price is too low, it can completely dismantle the power grid and sell it to the Indian government alone.

There is no doubt that the U.S. company does not intend to engage with the Indian government because the Indian government will not negotiate with the U.S. at all.

In this way, the price offered by the US company for the Indian power grid has been reduced from 10,000 US dollars to thugs and thugs.

Among the total purchase amount of US$100 million proposed by Sanjian Group, the other US$100 million is the purchase amount of the old home power equipment and electronic equipment manufacturing company opened by Meixiang Company in India.

I have to admit that Meihu is the lucky one among many American companies.

Because India's electronics industry centers are in Hydebara and Bengaluru, that is, in southern India, when the war broke out, American companies in India did not have the problem of southward migration. Even if they were expropriated by the Indian government, they were not seriously damaged due to the large-scale industrial transfer. More importantly, when the negotiations began, the southern part of India was basically under the control of the Hydebara regime, and most industries were not bombed.

It is precisely because Sanjian Group has launched a "sky-high price of US$100 million"

Of course, there is a prerequisite for today's price, that is, the infrastructure and production equipment of the old company cannot be seriously damaged. Based on this point, Lin Muxuncai proposed that Sanjian Group can only pay irrigation with overseas mining assets, that is, a weak US$100 million. As long as the prerequisite is not established, Sanjian Group can tear up the contract at any time.

Meihu Company is completely unacceptable to this requirement.

In Meihu's view, the main problem is not them. After all, war is an "irresistible factor." Since Sanjian Group is willing to buy Meihu's industry, it should bear related risks.

Of course, this statement from Meixiang is not valid because it is not a pure commercial negotiation.

At the end of the day, the two sides reached a basic agreement, namely the damage caused by the war, according to

The training point is decided by who will bear the responsibility. If the Republic Army suppresses the worker in Meihu in India, Sanjian Group still has to pay the purchase at the negotiated price. If the Indian army destroys the factory in Meihu, it will be borne by Meixiang Company.

It can be said that this payment is very fair.

After determining the key issues, the two sides held a final contest on the "package acquisition price".

In the end, Sanjian Group acquired all the assets in the Indian company for its thug, Nai billion US dollars in cash and Jinyi's mining assets.

"Triple billion US dollars, completely within the expected range of Sanjian Group.

In fact, before the negotiations began, Lin Yanbo only asked to acquire the assets in India within the US dollar. According to Lin Yanbo's promise, each senior executive of the former Sanjian Group who participated in the negotiations was able to get Jin 10,000 US dollars for every thug. Mu Yong suspected that Lin Muxun and the negotiators would definitely fight to the death for so much bonus.

Of course, the negotiations between Meihu and Sanjian are very representative.

As the first "bilateral contract" signed, the United States made huge concessions in the negotiations, which had a huge impact on other American companies.

No one can deny that Meiyu is in the United States, nor can Meiyu be close to the US Congress, the US State Department, and even the White House. In the eyes of many American companies involved in the negotiations, especially small and medium-sized enterprises, Meixiang almost sells assets in India by "jumping the property price". It does not mean that Meiyu has no value, but has a special meaning. To be precise, Meiyu has insider information, and knows that it is not beneficial to drag it down.

Even super companies like Meihu have made concessions, what else can other American companies do?

Of course, there are also people who are not afraid of opening.

Following Meihu, Ford signed a purchase agreement with Jiqing Company, which will sell its joint venture automobile manufacturer, Wujia Auto Parts Manufacturing Factory, and Choujia Auto Equipment Supply Company in India mainly engaged in the import trade of automobile equipment, and a car production and sales network composed of 8 chain sales stores to Jiqing Company at a price of thugs Gunnie USD, and reached a relevant agreement with Jiqing Company that the damage caused by the Indian government will be borne by Ford.

The so-called defeat is like a mountain.

Meihu and Ford "surrendered. After that, large American companies such as Boeing, Intel, Sigang, Microsoft, and Walmart, which were actively seeking, quickly turned around and signed similar contracts with Republican companies.

The general direction has been decided, and American small and medium-sized enterprises can only speed up their "escape".

By the old month, in addition to the arms-related negotiations that had not been completed, Republican companies had signed contracts with American companies, acquiring most of the assets in the United States at a total price of about 100 million US dollars, and basically completing the negotiations.

There is no doubt that this is a negotiation that can be recorded in history.

Although in the words of the American news media, American companies suffered a "Waterloo" in India not only lost hundreds of trillions of dollars of assets. They also collectively "defeated" for the first time, but the result was far less serious than the American news media said. From a certain perspective, this even saved most American companies, especially small and medium-sized enterprises. Not to mention, after the outbreak of the war, those American small and medium-sized enterprises whose main business in India fell into trouble, which not only caused hundreds of thousands of Americans to be unemployed, but also caused a serious debt crisis. Without the tens of billions of dollars of "assistance" provided by the Republican enterprises, thousands of American small and medium-sized enterprises would go bankrupt within the year. Affected by the debt crisis, thousands of American small and medium-sized enterprises would go bankrupt and cause millions of Americans to be unemployed. It can be said that for most American small and medium-sized enterprises, no matter how much money the contract is negotiated, it is a life-saving money that allows them to maintain their operations.

From another perspective, Republican companies did not suffer any losses. If they did not acquire American companies' assets in India and started from scratch, the investment would definitely not attract billions of dollars. Even if the investment amount did not increase the old times, it would increase by more than twice.

It can be said that this is the mystery of business negotiations.

As long as both parties are sincere, they can eventually get benefits from it, and the difference is only whose benefits are more. And negotiations are just about striving for more benefits.

There is no doubt that the benefits gained by Republican enterprises significantly exceed those of American enterprises.

Not to mention the economic interests, the psychological impact brought by this and the impact on the policies of the two governments are enough to make Wang Yuanqing go to Moscow with peace of mind.

Who is behind the US government? Idiots know that the US government is the spokesperson for American companies.

Because Sanjian Group won a great victory in the negotiations with the U.S. Group, providing a "sample" for subsequent negotiations, all contracts clearly stipulate that damage caused by the Indian government's Hydebala regime will be borne by American companies. For this reason, after the contract was signed, the Republic's enterprises only paid the amount of money that they had paid. After the war was over, the damage assessment results will determine whether to pay the remaining money and how much money they paid.

This alone is enough to determine the "main theme" of the Moscow negotiations.

No matter how awesome Brandino is, no matter how awesome the US Congress is, I will not dare to play with the interests of American companies!
