There are a total of 21 people in the Qinghe Investment and M&A department on this trip. It is still difficult for ordinary people to get a visa. However, when the Qinghe team applied for a visa in the name of investment, and there was an invitation letter from American Airlines, it seemed
Much easier.
The world always proves with facts that there are few doors in this world that money cannot knock on.
The team was led by Nie Ting, Qinghe's current vice president in charge of the investment and M&A department. Because the acquisition of American Airlines was unusual, he personally led the team this time. This unprecedented large lineup of 21 people was almost an investment.
Half of the M&A department.
"The market value of American Airlines at the closing yesterday was 27.9 billion, which has dropped again. Recently, the media has released a lot of negative news about American Airlines, which is very beneficial to us," said someone close to Nie Ting.
Nie Ting calmly looked at the people coming and going outside the airport and said: "It's too early to draw conclusions now. Maybe American Airlines' financial crisis will attract other capital. We may not have no competition, so everyone must fight.
Come in spirit."
He was determined to win this acquisition, and others were not sure about it, but Nie Ting still had a task entrusted to him by Ren He, although this task also seemed very bizarre.
Someone from American Airlines came to pick us up, a group of four commercial vehicles, and someone at the door held a sign with the word Qinghe written on it.
Nie Ting took the lead in shaking hands with the people from American Airlines, saying hello, and got on the bus. Then the people from American Airlines arranged accommodation. However, Qinghe had to pay for the hotel stay. This is probably a habit in the United States.
However, although Nie Ting and others came to acquire American Airlines' shares, they rejected the first negotiation invitation from the American Airlines board of directors. Nie Ting only had one additional request: he would only talk to people from the Brown Group.
In previous lives, some people said that the American conglomerates are all fictitious, the fraternity is also fictitious, and the Council on Foreign Relations is also fictitious. But what is the fact? The fact is that they all exist objectively.
However, regardless of the past life or this life, the Brotherhood is far from having as much influence as imagined. On the contrary, the Trilateral Commission and the Council on Foreign Relations have an influence beyond imagination.
For example, 64 members of the Cabinet during the Reagan era were members of the Council on Foreign Relations. After Bush was elected president, a large number of Council on Foreign Relations members took up important government positions. Whoever is in power has influence.
They are not as mysterious as imagined, but their influence is absolutely extraordinary, there is no doubt about this.
In this life, Ren He doesn't know what the situation is in the United States. The names of the top ten consortiums have also changed. However, there are 16 largest oil companies in the country, 8 of which belong to the Brown Consortium, and they are also controlled by other consortiums.
The five largest airlines in the United States are United Airlines, Pan American Airways, American Airlines, TWA and Eastern Airlines.
Ren He has already understood that the political ecology of the United States has not changed much in this life, and consortiums are still the real economic lifeblood of this country.
The amount of the acquisition negotiated with the Brown Consortium this time is only tens of billions of yuan. For Qinghe, it is a lot of money, but for the consortium, it is only a small part. But the problem is, these consortiums are very concerned about money.
The persistence has long gone beyond imagination. A tens-billion acquisition case has resulted in a win-win situation at the cost of canceling the wanted order. Ren He believes that the other party is absolutely willing to complete the transaction.
For these consortiums, how can a wanted order be worth real money?
Nie Ting felt a little unsure, after all, this was the first time he faced the legendary American conglomerate family, but he had to persist, otherwise he might not be able to complete the task assigned to him by the big boss.
Although He told him before leaving that he should just try his best, after all, no one really understands the American ecology. It doesn't matter if he fails, he can just come back. Sooner or later, Qinghe will have the ability to influence the world.
If it doesn't work this time, Ren He will follow Tencent's example and list on the NASDAQ in the United States. When Qing He has a market value of hundreds of billions as in his previous life, he believes that the consortium will re-examine the transaction. You must know that Tencent and Alibaba originally
The combined market value of Qinghe has already exceeded US$500 billion. In this generation, Qinghe is a real Internet aircraft carrier, and no one can ignore it.
No one from American Airlines came to the hotel to look for Nie Ting again. For three days, Nie Ting just watched TV calmly in the hotel.
Team members didn’t understand why Nie Ting did this, and Nie Ting couldn’t explain it directly. But one thing about Qinghe’s team was good, they had long learned to trust their colleagues.
The reason why Nie Ting stood out from everyone and became Qinghe's vice president in charge of investment and mergers and acquisitions was precisely because of his calm persistence and excellent business ability. At least no one in the team was better than him.
The CEOs in many companies are laymen. They either flatter themselves, have a relationship with the boss, or have other factors. This is normal. But when the entire team makes business breakthroughs, if the team leader is a layman,
, there will be too many disadvantages: shirking responsibilities, not knowing what to do, subordinates will give random instructions after giving opinions, and there will be no way to train internal employees.
Many people think that as long as the top management knows how to manage, there is no need to be better than the subordinates, but Ren He witnessed an era when this theory was slapped in the face.
In the previous life, Alibaba suddenly discovered one day that its middle-level leaders no longer even knew who their customers were, and were completely out of touch with the team, causing a decrease in the company's efficiency, so they immediately made changes.
Alibaba is not the only company making changes.
Therefore, Qinghe has had a rule from the beginning: laymen must not lead experts.
While waiting, Nie Ting acted like he was fine no matter how worried he was. He could not let his subordinates worry with him.
Ren He said it didn't matter whether it could be completed or not, but within Qinghe, there was no such thing as saying it could not be completed.
Others have done so well in various projects, but when he failed, it means there is a problem with his ability. Nie Ting has already thought about it. If he fails to live up to the trust of the big boss this time, he will take the blame and resign.
But he will not leave Qinghe, and will return to the team to continue to hone his skills. After staying in Qinghe for three years, he has never thought about leaving again.
On the third day, a call suddenly came to Nie Ting's cell phone. The other person spoke with a southern American accent: "Hello, Mr. Nie, are you free at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning? I think I can talk to you on behalf of the Brown Consortium.
"
I'm a little stuck, so I don't want to forcefully write it. I owe you a chapter and I'll make up for it tomorrow (.)
