Chapter 587 Where to get money
"Here, let me introduce to you, these are my work assistants. This is Irina, Nova..."
In the office of the Duma Building, Wang Yezheng led Rosiana to get to know the beauties of his assistant team.
After hearing that Rosiana was coming to serve as the boss's special assistant, Elena and the others looked normal, but they still had their own thoughts in their hearts.
Especially Nova, looking at Rosiana, felt a little hostile in her heart.
She was worried that this ridiculously beautiful girl would become her sister's "love rival"!
Wang Ye naturally didn't know what the assistants thought and didn't care much.
Rosiana's title is tentatively "Special Assistant", which is still different from Elena and the others.
Obviously, the special assistant will be exposed to more things about Wang Ye, and his authority will be greater than Elena and the others.
Wang Ye had previously served as Kovchenko's special assistant.
So he understands that in this position, the level of power can be changed at will.
If he can trust Rosiana, he can grant her greater power.
If she can't believe it, then this special assistant will become a decoration, and she will never have access to her real secret!
…………
After the introduction, Wang Ye took Rosiana into the office inside.
The two of them sat down, facing each other. You looked at me, and I looked at you.
Wang Ye smiled and said: "Why are you sitting there stupidly? The refrigerator is over there. Go get something to drink. Are you still waiting for me to get it for you? Miss, you are an assistant now, not a big reporter."
Rosiana was not angry. She stood up with a smile, went to the refrigerator, opened the door, and took a look. There were a variety of drinks inside.
She didn't ask Wang Ye what he wanted to drink and just brought two bottles of orange juice over.
Putting a bottle in front of Wang Ye, to see what Wang Ye wanted to say, she spoke first: "Don't drink coffee in the morning, let alone beer, it's not good for your health. Taking care of your health is what I, as an assistant,
Things that should be done.”
Wang Ye shook his head, he really wanted to say he wanted to drink coffee...
After thinking about it, Wang Ye said to Rosiana: "I've only been busy with one more important thing recently. You can get involved."
Rosiana's eyes lit up and she quickly asked: "What is it? Is it the work of the Economic Committee, or do you have any new proposals at the Duma Congress?"
"No, I am planning to acquire a car brand. I have almost done the preliminary work and will soon enter the quotation negotiation stage." Wang Ye said.
When she heard this, Rosiana was a little disappointed. She didn't have much interest in business.
Instead, I prefer to be exposed to political matters.
But there is no other way, because he is just an assistant and Mikhail is the boss.
You still have to do the work he arranges seriously.
So Rosiana nodded and asked: "What do you need me to do?"
Now that I have come to work as an assistant to Wang Ye, I naturally can't just hang around. I still have to do the work that needs to be done.
On this point, Rosiana is still unambiguous.
Wang Ye was not polite and asked Elena to bring a large pile of information, all about the three brands of Volvo and Jaguar Land Rover. He gave it to Rosiana and asked her to read the information as soon as possible.
Because when the time comes to participate in negotiations, these things will come in handy.
…………
Katya and Polar Bear Investment are making rapid progress, and the acquisition of car brands has already taken shape.
Because several of the intended brands belong to the Ford Group, through intelligence collection, Katya and the others learned that the Ford Group has not been having an easy time in recent years.
After crazy expansion in the past few years, it encountered an economic crisis and the Ford Group fell into trouble.
It has so many brands, and it is said that except for "Ford" and "Lincoln", all the other brands are planned to be sold, which can be regarded as a desperate attempt to survive.
In addition to "Volvo", "Jaguar" and "Land Rover", there are also "Aston Martin" and "Mazda"!
The Ford Group's "clearance sale" caused quite a stir in the global automobile industry.
Of course, Wang Ye is not the only one who is in contact with this matter. It is said that many potential customers are also negotiating with the Ford Group and want to acquire a certain brand.
Therefore, it is unlikely to spend a very low cost to pick up leaks.
In the end, it’s still a competition to see who offers the higher price.
For this acquisition, Wang Ye will not personally preside over the negotiations. Firstly, he does not have that much time and energy, and secondly, he has more important things to do.
In comparison, this acquisition is nothing.
But he didn’t just do nothing about this acquisition. Instead, he had the most important thing to do, which was to raise money!
It is conceivable that if you want to win three brands, Land Rover, Jaguar, and Volvo, or even just one brand, you may need a billion dollars to start!
If they take them all, Katya and the others estimate that they will need between 40 and 5 billion US dollars!
This is a huge sum of money. Wang Ye doesn't have that much money in his hands now. He needs to find a way to borrow it.
But it is not easy to borrow so much money...
Because even if it is a bank, there are only a handful of them in Russia that can take out such a large sum of money.
Besides, Wang Ye doesn’t have much of a relationship with banks, so it’s probably difficult to borrow such a huge sum of money.
…………
I was frowning and thinking about where to get money, when the cell phone on the table rang.
Wang Ye reached for the phone and glanced at the screen. It was Alexei calling.
"Hello, brother Alexei, why do you have time to call me today? You must be very busy as a new official."
He said with a smile.
Alexei has already taken up the post of the Ministry of Energy and must be very busy during this period. Wang Ye is not wrong.
"Haha, it's okay. I'm a little busy, but I can cope with it. By the way, I'm calling because I need to tell you something. Didn't you come up with a new pipeline plan last time, which is a comprehensive plan?
The Andalusian-Dalian Line and the Annan-Nanjing Line will be completed, and then China and Japan will each bear part of the pipeline construction costs..."
Alexei explained the matter on the phone.
In fact, it means that the new pipeline route plan that Wang Ye worked out last time has been approved by all parties and has been confirmed, so we will build it accordingly.
After three-party negotiations, the budget for pipeline construction is approximately US$30 billion!
Logically speaking, this cost should be paid by the Russian side. After all, it is the seller, and all pipelines are basically in Russia.
But neither Yukos nor Gazprom can afford such a large sum of money, and even if they could, they wouldn't be able to pay it themselves.
The buyer, that is, China and Japan, must be allowed to advance payment, otherwise, there may be huge risks...
The result of the negotiation was that China would advance US$18 billion and Japan would advance US$12 billion.
Chapter completed!
