After receiving the promise from the little foreign girl, the Ross family will acquire the shares of the American Curtiss Company and China-based Sino-American Airlines within three days. However, it only requires the Huashang Group Corporation to raise US$2 million within one year to return the shares to the Ross family.
.
Neither Liu Lang nor Fan Ziran paid much attention to this, and even the little foreign girl didn't pay much attention to the amount of money that most people considered to be an astronomical figure. As long as sulfonamide drugs are on the market in the United States and Europe,
Two million US dollars is probably just a fraction of the huge profit.
Moreover, the little foreign girl and her family did not advance the money in vain. The United States, which had just experienced the financial crisis, especially the aviation industry stocks, suffered heavy losses in that crisis. The recovering airlines were in urgent need of capital injection.
A small airline in mainland China can be purchased in full for only one million U.S. dollars. It only takes one year to double the investment, so why not? The little foreign girl firmly believes in her mother.
will make the most accurate judgment.
This is a business family. It doesn’t mean that there is no friendship, but in the end, everything still depends on profit value. But on this point, both the little foreign girl and Liu Lang are very honest and not secretive.
.As Liu Lang said, just asking the Ross family to hold shares on their behalf would cost more than one million. Would you dare to spend two million on someone else like this?
After everything was settled between the little foreign girl and the American family, Liu Lang took the little foreign girl, her personal bodyguards and Expert Huang on the road early in the morning.
It's just that this time it was a shotgun exchange for a cannon. It was not a horse or a carriage, but the only car currently owned by the Huashang Group. It had just been shipped to Chengdu from Yichang and drove overnight to Guangyuan County to pick up Liu Lang and his party.
Letting the driver find a way back to Chengdu, Liu Lang got into the cab under the trembling eyes of several people and stepped on the accelerator. The old General Motors' old Buick 3.7L displacement eight-cylinder engine reached 93 horsepower.
The power of the car will be like that of a classic car in the future, but in this era, it will definitely be a powerful luxury car. But for Liu Lang, who has even flown airplanes and helicopters, this is simply too childish, even if the current road surface is better than
The rural roads of the future will be a bit worse.
Racing all the way.
Of course, that was relative to carriages and horses. But the speed was definitely over fifty yards per hour.
Master Huang thought for countless times that Liu Tuanzuo just wanted to kill someone and silence him. Liu Lang arrived at Shancheng from Guangyuan in just fourteen hours. By the time he entered the official residence of the new King of Sichuan, it was already twelve o'clock in the night.
Liu Xiang was still waiting for him in the heavily guarded study.
"It's urgent." The message Liu Lang sent him only had four words, which was enough.
Liu Xiang knew that his cousin, who had suddenly risen to prominence, had never been so cautious. Even when he faced the Eighth Division's fierce attack on the Luo Wenyu front line of the Great Wall for eight days, he was just an understatement after repeated telegrams.
Four words came back, "It's just death."
What on earth made him say "Urgent"? This was the first word "oil" uttered by Liu Xiang when he saw Liu Lang arriving in a hurry. He was stunned for a while before he figured it out.
It's indeed a big deal.
Not only did Liu Lang die, but the Liu family and the whole of Sichuan were involved. This was not just a matter of Liu Xiang's willingness to hand over the oil fields to the state.
If there is an oil field, it is natural that there must be a garrison. The garrison must be the Central Army. A brigade or a division is not the most terrifying thing. The most terrifying thing is not this. If the government builds a military airport in the hinterland of Sichuan, the power of dozens of aircraft will be completely
Being able to intimidate the three provinces of Yunnan, Sichuan and Guizhou is the key to making the Sichuan king keep scratching his head.
An elite Central Army Army Division plus the Air Force are entrenched in Sichuan, which is undoubtedly a sharp knife at Liu Xiang's throat. Is he the King of Sichuan still the King of Sichuan before? That is of course not the same.
Of course, this is unacceptable to Liu Xiang. He and Liu Wenhui, who is pro-Guofu, launched the Sichuan War. Isn't it also a fight between the two factions who are pro-Guofu and those who are far away from the Guofu? This is not even something that the two representatives surnamed Liu can decide by themselves. Everyone
They are just representatives of a group of benefit recipients.
The light in the small study was on all night. Liu Lang walked out of the study tiredly but with a bit of joy. He finally persuaded Liu Xiang to give in. The future will depend on whether the price offered by the bald man can be accepted by the King of Sichuan.
The news of the discovery of the oil field in Sichuan was sent to the Nanjing Military Commission by Liu Xiang himself three days later, because although the bald man was already the first person in China, his position was that of chairman of the National Military Commission, which was not a big deal.
President, it would have to wait until the year before the Kuomintang was defeated in the war more than ten years later, before the bald man got addicted to the presidency. Now, Wang Zhaoming serves as the president of the Executive Yuan, and the bald man
The Chairman of the Generalissimo controls the most elite military force in the country, which fully proves the saying of Taizu that "political power comes from the barrel of a gun."
The news of oil fields coming out of Sichuan not only left Liu Xiang scratching his head, but it also gave the bald man a headache. While he was overjoyed, he also had to consider how to deal with this big pie that has fallen on the head of the entire China.
Although the pie is delicious, if you eat it too hard, you will choke. The bald man who knows the ropes is by no means the kind of person who lacks political acumen. He may only be at the level of a regiment leader in fighting, but in playing
This person here, with more than ten years of career ups and downs, has told everyone that he is first-class.
Liu Xiang's statement is actually very crucial. The bald man is keenly aware of the new King of Sichuan's thoughts. He has no intention of occupying the oil fields, but his meaning is very obvious. You can handle this matter. If the handling makes Brother Pao unhappy, fight him.
A fight doesn't matter.
Three days were enough for the Ross family to complete the acquisition of Curtiss' business in China in the United States. The cash of 2 million U.S. dollars was used by Curtiss, which had only invested no more than 500,000 U.S. dollars in Sino-American Airlines.
It's definitely a huge profit.
This is actually similar to the corporate mergers and acquisitions of later generations. Even if they know that the future prospects of this industry are extremely good and will bring more profits, facing the current difficulties and the temptation of profits suddenly increasing several times, almost no one
able to resist.
This is the magic of capital.
Through the Aviation Administration, the person in charge of China-US airlines in China conveyed this message to the government officials who were having an emergency consultation meeting. In view of the fact that China has discovered oil fields and can produce its own aviation kerosene, the US parent company is willing to increase investment to help China.
Establish an oil refinery, and at the same time be willing to sell some military aircraft to China at low loan interest rates and be willing to help train pilots.
The United States' demands are unprecedentedly low. They just hope to obtain lower-priced aviation kerosene and get China to agree to open more domestic routes and strive to open direct international routes to the United States.
This pie is even bigger. You must know that no matter how much money Chinese and American airlines make, the Chinese government, which holds 55% of the shares, gets the lion's share.
However, this pie also prompted the government officials to be more cautious about the bigger pie in Sichuan. If one is not good, they may not eat both pies, which is a big joke.
After several waves of government officials traveling back and forth between Shancheng and Nanjing, the two sides finally reached an agreement.
