My autobiography cannot be a tragedy

Chapter 431 What level of player?

"Mr. Tang is right, I do have some headaches about these tankers recently.

But... low price?I don't know how to deal with it? "

Gao Yuan followed the other party's words and asked.

"That's right, Director Gao should also know that our Gaosheng Group also has a large oil tanker investment and leasing business, and has a large number of international shipping company customers.

If you trust us, you can completely entrust us to sell or sublease. In this regard, our professional level of Gaosheng is among the best in the world. "

A look of arrogance appeared on Tang Yijing's face.

As Gao Sheng's investment advisor, he certainly has pride in this regard.

You must know that Gao Sheng is not only an investor, but also a top broker in the world. He is also experienced in mergers and acquisitions, asset management, and acquisition consulting.

The network and resources it has are beyond the reach of ordinary companies, which is why many financial businesses and services cannot bypass Goldman Sachs.

"Of course, I know that you are in urgent need of funds, so the second option is actually more suitable.

That is to sell these tankers directly to Gaosheng, and then we will go to the international market to find suitable buyers.

After all, it is not so easy to find a suitable buyer. If you are unlucky, it is possible to delay for a year or so.

But in this way, the risk will be passed on to us, so the price...

Gao Dong, you also know the current oil tanker market conditions, if you want the group to agree, I am afraid... only about [-]% of your purchase price..."

Listening to Tang Yijing explaining his "suggestion".

At this time, Gao Yuan didn't have any expression on her face, she tapped her fingers on the table regularly, as if she was bowing her head in thought.

Tang Yijing thought that Gao Yuan's heart was moving, so he struck while the iron was hot and continued. "Director Gao, the most important thing in business management is to avoid risks.

In my opinion, there is nothing wrong with you investing in the IT industry, but it is a bit hasty to rush into the shipping field that you are completely unfamiliar with.

Throwing away this burden and divesting the biggest risk assets will not only greatly ease your company's cash flow, but also facilitate the subsequent financing, and your company's corporate value will also increase! "

Tang Yijing's analysis is very reasonable in the eyes of any operator.

After all, these oil tankers are bad assets in everyone's eyes. In the hands of Gao Yuan, they can neither generate profits nor realize them, occupying a huge amount of funds in vain.

Instead of smashing it in your hand, disposing of it at a discount is almost the best ending.

For Evergreen, it only paid a small price to save the Bincheng Shipyard.

I also got the shares of the shipyard that I can't buy at ordinary times, and the favorability of the mayor...

Of course, this deal is not too bad.

but……

Gao Yuan looked at Tang Yijing and suddenly grinned.

"Hehe! To be honest, this acquisition was actually entrusted by someone, and it was just to drive the ducks to the shelves... I hope that I can sell it as soon as possible.

However, when we bought the eight oil tankers, they were worth 8 billion RMB, and with a 30% discount, that’s 24 billion RMB. We lost hundreds of millions of dollars each time we entered and exited... This is a bit unacceptable to me. "

Tang Yijing nodded and said, "There are indeed losses, but you also know that if we help you take over these tankers, it will take a huge risk.

I believe that this price is high even in the current market. The key is to help Evergreen Biotech restore a healthy capital flow.

This is the most important! "

He said sincerely as if he was thinking about the evergreen creature.

"To tell you the truth, when I knew that the team led by Gao Dong had made a major breakthrough in the field of biotechnology, I felt admiration.

I even strongly support my daughter's entry into Bai Yeji!
Why?Isn't it because Hua Guotai lacks real entrepreneurs who are low-key and pragmatic like Gao Dong, who invest heavily in research and development?

With great sincerity, I want to promote cooperation between the two parties and use my rich experience in asset management to help your company tide over the difficulties.

Hmm... How about this, what kind of price do you think you can accept, Director Gao? I'll go back and try my best to fight for it from the company. What do you think?
After all, our group is still very optimistic about Evergreen Biotech. I think, for the follow-up long-term cooperation, we are definitely willing to show the greatest sincerity! "

Gao Yuan looked at the other party, and finally nodded slowly.

"Well! Of course I believe in your sincerity, the company does have the actual need to deal with these assets as soon as possible..."

Tang Yijing was overjoyed, and couldn't help showing a smile on the corner of his mouth...

"As for the price... what do you think of 36 billion?"

Tang Yijing's smile instantly froze on his face.

"What... what?!"

He thought he had heard it wrong, and confirmed it again.

"Director Gao, you mean... 36 billion?!"

"En! That's right, it's 36 billion." Gao Yuan smiled and nodded.

Tang Yijing was dumbfounded.

Good guy, not only is there no discount, but what the hell are you going to increase the price for me?

Under such a market, not only do you not intend to lose money, but you also want to make a fortune?
Am I crazy or are you crazy?
Looking at Gao Yuan with a relaxed smile on his face, Tang Yijing was at a loss.

This is different from the agreed upon script!

The script in his mind should have been like this...

"Twenty percent off!"

"No, it's too bad, I won't sell it."

"Do you know what bargaining is? You should pay back the price. What if it happens?"

"Hmm... [-]% off?"

"make a deal!"

I have achieved my goal, but the other party looks confused. This should be the normal process, right?

You must know that the reserve price given by the customer to Gao Sheng is the original purchase price.

On this basis, no matter how much is negotiated, he will have a 5% commission.

With a 30% discount of 3 billion, Gao Sheng can make a net profit of 5 million, and 1500% is [-] million...

Even if it is a [-]% discount, he has a high commission of more than [-] million.

Isn't there a big house here?

As a result, he had already started planning whether to go to Las Vegas or Miami for this year's vacation trip, but the other party did not play cards according to common sense.

My daughter is going all out, and you won't even give me a [-]% discount?
"Director Gao, aren't you embarrassing us? In this market situation, let alone 36 billion, whether 24 billion can be sold is a question..."

He was not sure what kind of medicine this Gao Dong was selling in his gourd, and he was afraid that the other party would see something, so he could only show a wry smile.

"Is it difficult? That's a pity. In that case, I'll wait and see if I can find a more suitable buyer." Gao Yuan shrugged indifferently.

"Ah this..."

Ten thousand grass-mud horses roared past Tang Yijing's heart.

That's what I said, you're paying the price!

[-]% off is not [-]% off, [-]% off is not [-]% off, we can discuss it again...

What about sincerity?
He had a weird feeling that the other party didn't seem to be in a hurry to sell the boat at all?
But this doesn't match the information he has...

Shouldn't today's evergreen creatures be short of money?

What the hell kind of business operation is it to cling to a pile of non-performing assets while expanding wildly with high-interest loans? !
"Director Gao, I sincerely want to help your company solve its financial problems, but your quotation... really makes it impossible for me to start."

Tang Yijing smiled wryly.

"Your company's cost is only 30 billion, and you can open it to 36 billion in this market... I don't even have the courage to quote to the company..."

Gao Yuan smiled.

"Hehe! Mr. Tang is wrong about one thing. Our cost is not 30 billion. You know... the 6 million liquidated damages paid to the Norwegian ship tycoon are also included in our additional investment costs. .

So to be precise, our cost should be 36 billion. "

Tang Yijing was dumbfounded.

What?Co-author, you even want to pass on the liquidated damages to us?

Does our Gao Sheng look so taken advantage of?
And as far as he knows, the 6 million liquidated damages were clearly paid by Bincheng Shipyard itself. Although the money was paid by you, it was clearly used by you to buy shares.

oh!The shares are in hand, and then count the 6 million in the extra cost of buying the ship?

What kind of costing is this?

He kept complaining in his heart, but when he heard the words "Norwei Ship King", Tang Yijing was still a little apprehensive.

"Really? That's such a pity."

In order to avoid being seen as tricky by the other party, Tang Yijing could only force his smile to give up for the time being.

After all, he made a "special trip" to discuss the acquisition of shares today, so what's the deal with keeping an eye on those 8 tankers for bargaining?

Don't be in a hurry, don't be in a hurry, it's the other party who should be in a hurry.

That kind of assets and liabilities, maybe it is about to collapse now, and I am playing psychological warfare, I must stabilize...

Tang Yijing comforted himself in this way.

"By the way, Mr. Tang, Gaosheng Group is world-renowned in terms of business information. What do you think about the future market conditions of large oil tankers?"

Gao Yuan's sudden remark made Tang Yijing's heart skip a beat.

What the other party said... Could it be that he noticed something?
After deliberating in my heart, I said carefully.

"This...the shipping field is not my specialty, and I dare not jump to conclusions.

However, as far as I know, in the first half of this year, the profit of the benchmark route of VLCC from the Middle East to China has dropped sharply, and the average daily charter rate (TCE) is only more than 11000 US dollars per day.

At present, many shipping companies are operating at a loss, the orders of shipyards are shrinking, and the business of shipbreaking yards is soaring, and there seems to be no sign of improvement in the short term..."

"Hmm! It's similar to what I understand." Gao Yuan glanced at the other party.

"Then you said, in case the transportation market picks up, a large number of old ships will be dismantled, and new ships will not be accepted... Is it possible for the supply and demand of this market to reverse?"

"what?"

The sweat on Tang Yijing's back immediately came down.

"Uh...this...should...have this possibility too, right?

However, the international oil transportation market is unpredictable. Even our professional team cannot predict it 100% accurately. Director Gao, your idea is a bit too bold, right? "

Gao Yuan suddenly showed a half-smile expression.

"Hehe! I'm just guessing randomly. You're right. The market is unpredictable. Who can predict it with 100% accuracy..."

Tang Yijing: "..."

……

Walking out of Changqing Biology's office building, Tang Yijing's face was a little gloomy.

There are two purposes here today.

One is to try to acquire Evergreen shares.

The second is to win the eight large oil tankers according to customer requirements.

However, I never expected that none of the seemingly easy tasks could be fulfilled...

According to the original plan, Gao Yuan should rush to sell the shares to them as soon as she heard the purchase price of 100 billion.

In this way, the 8 oil tankers under Bai Yeji's name naturally became their possessions after controlling Evergreen Biotech.

Selling it directly to the ship king John can bring the evergreen creature that is in a liquidity crisis back to life.

It means that Gao Sheng only bought two biotechnology patents with a "money-worthy" premium at a premium of about 2 times, which will bring them a steady stream of income in the future.

This business is definitely a big profit!

Unexpectedly, I met a master who didn't like oil and salt.

Not only did he have no intention of selling shares at all, he was even indifferent to his proposal to help the other party get rid of the "non-performing assets" in his hand...

That's all for nothing, the other party's last few words made Tang Yijing feel a little uneasy.

He very much hoped that he was thinking too much, but when he thought of the hidden smile of the other party, who seemed to be able to see through the eyes of people's hearts, he couldn't help but feel an inexplicable feeling that the other party already knew everything.

He looked back at the ordinary office building of Changqing Biology.

A trace of remorse suddenly appeared in his heart.

It seems that I shouldn't come today...

……

Standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, watching Tang Yijing's leaving back, Tang Yun looked back at Gao Yuan, a little hesitant to speak.

"Tell me what you want to say."

"Uh...haha! Forget it. With my identity, it's better to avoid suspicion."

Gao Yuan glanced at her with a smile.

"Do you want to say that the conditions offered by the other party are actually good, and we can consider it?"

"Well... At least those few ships are indeed a big trouble for us, not to mention taking up more than half of our funds, and it is difficult to cash out.

The annual maintenance fee alone is an astronomical figure.

Shouldn't it be a good thing for us if we can raise the price a little more? "

"To be honest, before today, I actually had a headache about these ships.

However, the other party's 'kindness' that seems to be a drunkard's intention to drink today gave me an intuition...

Our acquisition of these ships may be another stroke of genius..."

Gao Yuan also didn't understand Meng Lang's decision before.

Even if they wanted to acquire the shares of the Bincheng Shipyard, or to go a little further, they wanted to gain access to the Hushi network, there was absolutely no need for them to buy the 8 ships together.

With so much money, what's wrong with using it?
Even if it is entrusted to zero financial management, isn't it delicious with a high rate of return that doubles a year?
But Meng Lang was so determined that he would not let any of the ships lead the shipyard, and he even said what kind of organizational strategy...

It is precisely because I can't understand that I am very concerned.

Just because she cared about it, when Tang Yijing spoke today, she quickly realized that the other party seemed to be vaguely concerned about these ships...

Just now, she made a tentative statement. Although Tang Yijing's mansion was good and she didn't reveal any useful information, she believed in her own judgment more and more.

The acquisition of the oil tanker is definitely not the other party's whim, or it is really kind to help him solve the trouble...but it is probably one of the other party's goals!

Then the problem is coming...

Who would be interested in a few low-priced tankers with no market?

Naturally someone who thinks the market is about to change...

Although Zero's intelligence collection work is very efficient, the source of information always revolves around the open Internet.

Even the strongest reptiles cannot crawl to "non-public" information.

Some first-hand precious market information is always in the hands of some top players...

but……

A trace of doubt flashed in Gao Yuan's eyes.

If her guess is correct, some top players in the world have begun to smell unusual market changes.

If they were the masters of the first-hand information, then Meng Lang, who had mastered this information a month or more in advance, before everyone else...

What level of player is it?

Is there really a technology in this world that can predict future market changes with 100% accuracy?
Is it big data analytics?Or amazing business intuition?

It must not be the philosophy of "Three Cultivations of Buddhism, Taoism and Confucianism" in the mouth of the other party...
