Traversing the courtyard

Chapter 422 Agent Instant Noodles

Wei Dong also had a headache. No one knew how many boxes of instant noodles he could sell, so he had to sign a short-term agency contract first.

This is different from ballpoint pens. At that time, it had been sold for several months and some calculations could be made. Now the instant noodles have only been on the market for less than a month, and the specific sales volume still needs to be seen.

Qi Dezun wanted to be an agent for three months before discussing the specific amount in detail, that is to say, first obtain the agency right, try to sell for three months, and then discuss the specific amount after the sales come out.

Wei Dong said, "It's a short time to think about three months. After all, this is a new food. If you don't care about promoting the sales in private, and then negotiate a very low agency price, then I will suffer too much."

Qi Dezun's plan seems normal, but there are many places in the middle where tricks can be played. Of course, Wei Dong does not approve of this plan.

Qi Dezun asked, "Yi Sheng, what do you want?"

Wei Dong said: "First sign the agency contract for half a year, then adjust the agency fee and sign for another half year, and then discuss the agency fee after one year."

It doesn't matter if Qi Dezun thinks about it, and he doesn't want to worry about sales, so it's okay to sign a contract every half a year.

If you don't know the sales volume, sign for half a year first,
After negotiating with Qi Dezun, Weidong and Qi Dezun decided that the agency fee for half a year would be 100 million yuan, and each of the five foreign firms would be 20 yuan. Of course, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan were not included in the scope of agency.

If the sales volume is really not good, then the 100 million can not be just a half-year fee, and we will discuss it in detail after half a year.

Wei Dong also agreed to such a request. If he really can't win the situation in a foreign country, he can't force the five foreign firms.

After talking about instant noodles with Qi Dezun, I just wanted to say goodbye,

Qi Dezun said: "Yi Sheng, your exchange is very popular recently!"

Yi Weidong smiled and said: "It's really good, the daily trading volume is almost the same as Xiangjiang Club."

Qi Dezun said: "We and Ji will issue an additional 7200 million Hong Kong dollars of preferred shares to the public. I wonder if Dongyuan will accept this business?"

This is Weidong's first time doing business with other companies, so of course he wants to continue.

"We can be an underwriter, and we can also issue new shares on the Dongyuan Exchange. I wonder if they are all placed in our Dongyuan Exchange?"

I secretly guessed in my heart, is Hutchison International of Qi Dezun's family going to buy other companies, or is it going to buy a large amount of land?
But such a confidential matter, if you ask Qi Dezun directly, you will definitely not talk about it. Later, ask someone to ask what kind of chess He Ji is playing with this move.

These are preferred shares without voting rights. If ordinary shareholders Weidong wants to take over all of them directly, the current market value of Hutchison International is only a little over one billion. It is a pity that Weidong can't even become a shareholder of the board of directors of the five foreign firms, or else it will be early. A large number of acquisitions entered the board of directors in the market.

Qi Dezun said: "You can take half of it and put it on the Dongyuan Exchange for listing. Later, I will have someone contact you at the Dongyuan Exchange."

"Okay, we'll be happy together."

"Pleasant to work with."

When I went to the office the next day, I asked Mi Xiaozhou, "Is there any news about Heji in the market?"

Mi Xiaozhou said confusedly: "I don't know, there is no such news."

Wei Dongdao: "Yesterday Qi Dezun said that he would issue an additional 7200 million preferred shares. This must be to acquire companies or buy land for development."

Mi Xiaozhou thought about it and said, "I don't think it's buying land for development. Hutchison International also owns a lot of land, so there is no need to borrow so much money to buy land and build buildings."

Wei Dong said: "Pay attention, today I still buy the stocks of five foreign companies, and I will make some money for you."

Then I talked about yesterday's negotiation, and now Mi Xiaozhou can rest assured that this matter will not be discussed in three or two days, and it will not be too late to discuss the agency after the sweeping of the goods.

Weidong picked up the newspaper and only looked at the headlines, and soon found reports about electronic watches. First, he exaggerated the electronic watches launched by Qiuyu Group. He also calculated how much money the five foreign firms would lose without agency rights.

Wei Dong saw that this was a friendly army, so why are they talking to the Qiuyu Group?

Ruan Tao pushed the door in and saw Wei Dong was reading the report of "Sing Tao Daily", and said with a smile, "Don't read it, I will remember to stuff the red envelope."

Wei Dong said: "No wonder the electronic watch is exaggerated."

"How was the negotiation yesterday?"

Wei Dong smiled and said, "Let's wait for two days to talk about it, but I won an agency fee of 100 million for my brother first, and now I have to expand the production capacity."

Ruan Tao hesitated again and again, wondering if he should say it or not, Wei Dong asked, "Is there anything you and I can't say?"

Ruan Tao said first, "Don't blame me for talking too much."

"Sister Taozi, just tell me, can I still blame you?"

"Then I just said it?"

Wei Dong smiled and said, "Why are you so inked?"

Ruan Tao said cautiously: "I didn't want to provoke the relationship between you and Brother Zhuzi, did you consider his feelings when you gave everything away like this?"

Weidong has never thought about it this way before, as the saying goes: Doumi nourishes kindness, stone (dàn) rice nourishes hatred.To me, a building and a patent for instant noodles are trivial and worthless, but from He Yuzhu's point of view, this is already a huge sum of money, and my approach is somewhat inappropriate.

When I think about it carefully, I mainly owe sister He Yushui the kindness. I gave him steamed buns and came forward to help me settle down, so that I can get a household registration. After returning to China in 78, I just need to repay He Yushui.

Now that I have given away the house and patents myself so that He Yuzhu can have a safe business, it is the best of humanity. I can’t give them away for free like this in the future. Business belongs to business, and family affection is family affection. .

Wei Dong shook Ruan Tao's little hand and said, "It's great to have a capable sister Taozi, let's just give away the previous ones, and I won't give things out in the future."

Ruan Tao twitched her little hand first, but she didn't twitch, then she gave Yi Weidong a blank look, and said angrily, "Don't make a pun every day."

Wei Dong chuckled, talked about the company's affairs, sent Ruan Tao away, Wei Dong went downstairs to Li Fuzhao's office, and first notified Qi Dezun that he wanted to issue 3600 million game shares on Dongyuan Exchange. Of course Li Fuzhao agreed.

Wei Dong said: "I think the exchange can open another trading area for fund bonds to meet the trading of these financial derivatives."

It is also too narrow for the exchange to only trade stocks. Some funds and bonds issued by governments and companies can be listed on the market to expand the scope of trading.

Li Fuzhao nodded and said, "It is indeed possible to set up a separate department. In fact, some people suggested that we can trade gold."

"Buying and selling gold? Are we not qualified for futures?"

Xiangjiang Future is the largest precious metal futures trading market in Asia. Due to its special geographical location, it can be connected with London and Niuyue to conduct 24-hour non-stop trading, but it seems that there is no place for futures trading yet.

Dongyuan Exchange is not qualified for futures, that's why Weidong asked this question.

Li Fuzhao said: "We are not qualified for futures, but we can trade physical gold and silver!"

The gold and silver jewelry industry in Xiangjiang is very developed, and there are many gold banks and banks all over the streets and alleys. Now Xiangjiang does not have a fixed middleman for trading gold and silver, and it will be possible to do this physical business at that time.

This is different from futures. Physical gold delivery is to deposit gold into the vault, and the vault will issue a bill. Buyers and sellers can trade gold bills, or use the bill to withdraw the same amount of gold from the vault.

Wei Dongdao: "It is true that we can do physical gold trading by ourselves. We can negotiate with several big banks to trade the gold bills issued by them. By the way, we can apply to the government to set up our own gold exchange, futures exchange, and we can carry out futures trading. trade."

Weidong wants to have his own futures trading channel, of course, it is best to control it in his own hands. Even if the government is unwilling to hand these things into his own hands, it is okay to invest in shares.

These are businesses that make money without losing money. As long as there is a transaction, there is a commission, so how can they lose money?

Li Fuzhao didn't think so far, the stock exchange had just opened not long ago, and now Weidong was thinking about building a gold exchange and a futures exchange.

"Can the government issue us the license plate?"

Wei Dong smiled and said, "Just try it out. If we apply first, even if we don't give it to us, we still have to occupy a seat first. It's okay to cooperate with others."

Even if the short-term futures exchange cannot be established, gold trading can be done. Now an ounce of gold is only about 35 US dollars. It can rise to $71 an ounce, which is a full twenty-fold increase. In just a little more than ten years, the return on investing in gold will far exceed other industries. Thinking about it this way, I have a place to go for my large funds. It’s not too late to invest after selling and cashing out.

What's more, you can use gold mortgage loans for investment at that time, so buying gold will appreciate in value and will not have any impact on your investment. No matter how much money you have, there are places to invest.

I just had a brief negotiation with Li Fuzhao, and I also went to investigate and study the matters of the futures exchange and the precious metal exchange.

Wei Dong said: "Actually, we can set up another trading department."

"What else can you do?"

Li Fuzhao heard that there is still a business suitable for the exchange, his eyes lit up, Yi Wei's head is so long, it is a business as soon as he turns his eyes, no wonder he can make so much money.

Wei Dong said: "One, the securities law stipulates that the listed major shareholders and original shareholders have a half-year freezing period and cannot hold on to the stock."

"How do you do business?" Li Fuzhao asked.

The securities law stipulates that at least 25% of the total share capital should be listed on the stock exchange, and the rest of the shares belong to the original stock, which cannot be listed for sale within half a year after listing, that is, there is a half-year sales restriction period.

Wei Dongdao: "In fact, the law only stipulates that it cannot be sold on the market. I have studied it, and there is no clause prohibiting selling to other people. We can conduct large transactions within a small range, as long as the buyer promises not to carry out listing transactions."

Li Fuzhao asked: "You mean that the half-year sales restriction period is still valid?"

Wei Dongdao: "Yes, if the majority shareholder's sales restriction period is still 2 months, then the purchaser's sales restriction period is still 2 months, not six months."

Li Fuzhao thought about it and said: "I need to find a lawyer to study this, as long as it is not illegal."

Wei Dong continued: "We can also open up a block trading channel. If there are major shareholders who want to sell a large number of stocks, but are worried about the impact of the listing on the stock price, they can sell them in the block trading. This kind of transaction is fast and convenient, and it is also convenient for some big customers to invest. .”

Take Hutchison International’s additional issuance of 72000 million shares as an example. Putting it on the stock market will definitely have a certain impact on the stock price. If it is sold in a block transaction, there will be some funds, and the company will buy it in large sums. The impact on the secondary market is relatively small.

This kind of large-scale transaction also charges a commission based on a percentage. The exchange earns more at one time and saves trouble, saving human resources.

Li Fuzhao fell into deep thought, considering the detailed rules in the middle, there are indeed many benefits, and said: "Not only listed companies can do this, but some companies that are not listed can also sell their shares through this platform, so that we can expand our business. customer base."

Weidong did not expect to include companies that are not listed, which is more like a financing platform.

"We will set up another investment department, and we can invest in high-quality companies."

Li Fuzhao said: "This requires a large amount of capital to invest, and the exchange funds are limited now."

Then he looked at Weidong eagerly, and offered money in real money, and only Weidong had a large amount of cash.

Wei Dong said: "Then I will use a large amount of cash to buy shares and re-establish an investment group similar to Goldman Sachs."

Then said: "We'd better have our own bank for business integration, loan investment, bill settlement, all need to be carried out under the framework of the bank."

Li Fuzhao said: "I will look for a bank, and the specific cooperation agreement will be discussed later."

The two of them tacitly agreed that this was their business, and now they were just talking about an intention, and some details had to be negotiated.

When Weidong returned to his trading office, Mi Xiaozhou was continuing to buy stocks of foreign banks.

After reading it for a while, I stopped paying attention and began to think about setting up an investment bank.

Relying on the exchange, I am building an investment bank. I can invest in some high-tech enterprises to support the upstream and downstream industries of my computer business. I can’t produce all the accessories myself. I have to win over some companies to form an alliance. Don't be in a hurry, make preparations when you have time to deal with it later.

Mi Xiaozhou said: "Boss, I already bought a lot this morning, and I will almost spend 1000 million tomorrow."

"Yes, I will reward you later."

Mi Xiaozhou said happily, "Thank you boss."

Weidong smiled and continued to pay attention to the changes in the stock market. By the time the market closed at noon, Xiaozhou had swept more than 300 million stocks, and the five foreign firms had lost 4-5 points in price, and the decline had almost come to an end.

Returning to the office after lunch, Mi Xiaozhou closed the door and opened the folding bed to take a lunch break. The small door behind was pushed open by Weidong. After waving, Mi Xiaozhou was led by Yi Weidong to the rest room.

Xiaozhou realized later that the boss’s reward meant this. Before, the boss took turns going to the villa to rest at night. Is it really okay to mess around in broad daylight?Still, it's exciting to think about.
