Time flies by, and it’s the end of September in a blink of an eye. As expected, the weather is getting colder and colder, and most of the pedestrians on the street have suddenly disappeared.
According to the latest weather forecast, a new round of cold wave is brewing and may "send" southward at any time. This is the third wave of cold wave since the beginning of winter.
Its frequency far exceeds last year.
This can't help but cause people to worry. It seems that cold waves are becoming more and more normal.
But there is good news, that is, there are fewer days of heavy snow. According to recent statistics, the amount of snowfall in September is only about a quarter of last year.
In fact, the reason is not difficult to understand. Due to the sudden drop in temperature throughout the year, the water vapor in the air has been greatly reduced. In addition, the warm and humid air masses in the south are not strong. The two factors are superimposed, and the precipitation naturally decreases sharply.
And the further back, the more obvious this trend becomes.
After talking about the weather, let’s talk about acquisitions.
Overall, the progress has been pretty smooth.
Just now, the Shenzhen Stock Exchange and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange announced the delisting of BYD at almost the same time.
As soon as the news came out, it caused a sensation.
Although BYD is not the first company to announce delisting and restructuring, there have been more than a dozen cases before, but the scale is not large and the number of retail investors is limited.
But BYD is different. Taken together, the dozen or so delisted companies do not have as high a market value as BYD, and the number of retail investors is as high as millions, covering almost the entire federation.
……
At the same time, Zhang Hao finally met Wang Chuanxi. Neither party wanted to waste time, so they simply started talks in a hotel next to the port.
It may be that he is tired from the journey, or it may be that Wang Chuanxi's health is really poor. The old man's hair is gray, his body is very thin, and he looks very tired. He even needs help when walking.
After some polite remarks, Zhou Jianneng directly took out a document: "Mr. Wang, we have a report here. You may wish to take a look first."

"What report?"
Wang Chuanxi took it and flipped through the two pages carefully.
The more I look at it, the worse my face becomes.
"This is BYD's snow disaster damage report. You don't have to doubt its authenticity because the report was issued by Shenzhen officials three months ago."
Zhou Jianming quickly replied.
"Oh, I didn't expect the loss to be greater than I expected! Tell me, how much are you willing to pay?"
Wang Chuanxi couldn't help but sigh.
Zhou Jianming handed over a document again: "Well, after comprehensive evaluation by multiple evaluation companies, BYD's current market value is about 90 billion."
"90 billion? A direct reduction of five-sixths?"
Wang Chuanxi frowned.
You know, this time last year, BYD's total market value was still hovering around 600 billion.
"There is no way. BYD is now only an empty shell. The factory needs to be rebuilt, the machinery and equipment need to be repurchased, and the supply chain needs to be rebuilt..."
"Okay." Wang Chuanxi waved his hand directly, "90 billion is not non-negotiable. I want to hear your reconstruction plan first."
Zhang Hao immediately winked at the second sister.
To be on the safe side, he specially brought the other party over to help. The previous negotiation left a shadow on him.
Zhang Jiayi nodded, calmly took out a thick document from her bag, and handed it to Wang Chuanxi:
"Mr. Wang, this is our reconstruction plan."
"So many? I'll take a look at the plan when I get back. Can Mr. Zhang briefly explain it?"
Zhang Jiayi glanced at her younger brother calmly. She only received the notice yesterday and didn't know much, so she was afraid of not being able to tell the truth.
Zhang Hao quickly took over: "Mr. Wang, let me introduce it! In order to rebuild BYD, we have raised a total of 100 billion in funds and plan to resume production before the end of next year."
"100 billion? That's almost enough." Wang Chuanxi nodded, "What else is there?"
"If possible, we would also like to acquire Faraday Company." Zhang Hao replied.
"I know this, Sterling has contacted me."
Wang Chuanxi took the initiative to reveal some information.
Zhang Hao suddenly said nervously: "Mr. Wang, what did Sterling say?"
"He wants to cooperate with me."
Wang Chuanxi answered truthfully.
"Then you agree?" Zhang Hao quickly asked.
"No." Wang Chuanxi shook his head, "Although Sterling is capable, he is a foreigner after all. Under the same conditions, I want to leave the company to our own people."
"Mr. Wang is so righteous!"
Zhang Hao immediately complimented.
Others also expressed their admiration.
Wang Chuanxi shook his head, and then poured cold water on him: "Don't be too happy too early. Please remember the conditions in advance. If your reconstruction plan does not meet my requirements, then I can only choose Stella."
Lin."
"Mr. Wang, Sterling has no money, so don't let him fool you." Zhou Jianneng reminded him immediately.
"Sterling promised me that he will solve the financial problem." Wang Chuanxi was noncommittal.
"Mr. Wang, we are willing to acquire all the shares in your hands for 25.1 billion. As long as you nod, we can sign the contract now."
Zhang Hao used the krypton gold method.
If calculated based on the market value of 90 billion, Wang Chuanxi can only get 15.8 billion. 25.1 billion is a 60% premium, which is absolutely full of sincerity.
Wang Chuanxi shook his head slightly: "Director Zhang, no one doesn't like money, and I am no exception. However, up to a certain level, more or less money doesn't make much difference. In contrast, I would rather find it for BYD."
A qualified successor."
"Mr. Wang, our director Zhang is young and promising. I think he will never let you down."
Zhang Jiayi took the opportunity to persuade.
"Director Zhang is indeed excellent, which is obvious to all, but the automobile industry is different from other industries and has relatively high professional requirements."
Wang Chuanxi paused and continued:
"Director Zhang is too young after all. To be honest, I am a little uneasy, so I want to hear your reconstruction plan first. I hope you can convince me."
Hearing this, Zhang Hao suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He quickly adjusted his emotions and continued to introduce the reconstruction plan.
"Mr. Wang, let's continue the question we just asked. If we can acquire BYD, we will focus on private cars, and then spend three to five years upgrading the existing technology so that it can adapt to the current climate conditions..."
Wang Chuanxi couldn't help but interrupt: "Director Zhang, can you elaborate a little bit? I want to hear the specific technical plan, let's discuss it together."
"Ahem, Mr. Wang, you also know that I am not a professional and am a layman in terms of technology. How about I call the person who formulated the plan over?"
"No need, we will study it later when we have time!" Wang Chuanxi suppressed his disappointment and then asked: "Director Zhang, can you tell me what are the three main parts of an electric car?"
"Electric drive systems, power systems and auxiliary systems."
Zhang Hao blurted out on the spot.
As an experienced driver, I still know some common sense issues very well, and I studied them when I took the driver’s license test.
Wang Chuanxi nodded and continued to ask: "What parts does the electric drive system include?"
"This...motor...controller..."
Zhang Hao hesitated and said two things.
As soon as Zhang Jiayi saw Wang Chuanxi's face, she knew something was wrong, so she tried to remedy the situation:
"Mr. Wang, our Director Zhang usually doesn't care about specific affairs and is only responsible for the general direction of the company. He does the same thing at Southeast Fishery Company."
"Ahem... That's it for today. I'm a little tired. Let's make an appointment to talk."
Wang Chuanxi covered his mouth and coughed several times.
