Manufacturing Empire in the Valley

Chapter 805 Very Important Business Intelligence
Wang Xiaoshuang hummed: "I see, let the third sister talk to her later, and the eldest sister, let her talk to Xiaoxue."

Niu Xiaoqiang felt ashamed and couldn't help asking such a question: "Xiaoshuang, do you think...do you think I'm a good man?"

Wang Xiaoshuang was clever, and knew what Niu Xiaoqiang meant when he heard it.I just heard her chuckle: "In my opinion, as long as you treat me well, then you are a good man. Don't think too much. You should study hard in the United States and don't delay your business."

"Well, thank you for your tolerance. I have a good life in the United States, so you don't have to worry."

"kindness."

The two chatted for a few more words before hanging up the phone.

Niu Xiaoqiang looked at his watch and found that it was almost nine o'clock. He couldn't help worrying: "Why hasn't Kailinna come back yet? Could there be another accident?"

When she left in the morning, Karina only said that she had to do some personal business.When Niu Xiaoqiang heard that it was a private matter, he didn't have the nerve to ask more questions.Now it seems that the private matter Karina mentioned should not be that simple, otherwise she wouldn't have delayed it for so long.

Niu Xiaoqiang got up and opened the door, stood at the door and turned his head to look around.Coincidentally, not long after he looked around, a car drove over.

The headlights were a bit dazzling. Niu Xiaoqiang squinted his eyes and looked at the outline of the body clearly. He was sure that it was the off-road vehicle he bought, so he was relieved.

Karina finally came back, she drove the car into the garage, and walked out with several shopping bags.

"Carina, why did you go? Why are you so busy?"

"I went to a classmate's wedding and bought some new clothes by the way."

"I see, have you had dinner yet?"

"Eat out."

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded and welcomed Kailinna into the house.Karina showed a happy smile after entering the room: "I got a very important business information at the wedding."

Niu Xiaoqiang asked curiously, "What information?"

Karina put the shopping bag on the coffee table, and took out a small crumpled piece of paper from her handbag: "This is what I secretly recorded, you can read it yourself."

Niu Xiaoqiang took the paper and looked at it, and found that the content recorded on it was very messy. After sorting it out, the general idea was that a company named Lime was going to sell the business in Boston, and the price was about 300 million US dollars.

Niu Xiaoqiang didn't know anything about Lyme Company, so he couldn't help asking: "What is this Lyme Company doing?"

"This is a company specializing in sports equipment. Its total assets are about 5000 million US dollars. They have more than ten sports stores and five fitness centers in Boston. These assets are worth more than 350 million US dollars. As long as we put If you win this deal, you can resell at least $50."

This is the business model in the form of hunters that Kailina is most keen on, through acquisitions and split sales to obtain resale benefits.

"Are you sure?"

"There must be. In order to negotiate this business, I even went to print the business card, and I will go to negotiate with the people from Lime Company tomorrow."

While speaking, she opened a handbag, which contained two bundles of business cards.Niu Xiaoqiang hesitated and said: "But we don't have funds in our hands for the time being, so we can't pay others on credit, right?"

Kailinna smiled and said: "This transaction can be completed without funds. Let's negotiate the price with Lime Company first, and then go to the buyer and ask the buyer to pay the money. At that time, we can get the money from the middle." earn the difference."

Niu Xiaoqiang understood as soon as he heard it: "This is equivalent to an empty-handed white wolf, and the buyers are not fools. They can go directly to Lime to negotiate business. Why do you need to find a middleman?"

Karina explained: "Because the information is unequal, we have the opportunity to act as middlemen. For example, the information I got was just casually revealed by a director of Lime Company at the wedding. It can only be regarded as the internal intention of the other party. The board of directors of Lime Company has not announced that it will sell the business here in Boston. All I need to do is persuade the board of directors of Lime Company to let them sell the business to us. After signing the contract, we are equivalent to having exclusive agency rights, and other buyers can only purchase from us."

Niu Xiaoqiang nodded slightly: "I see. If you think it's feasible, go ahead and do it. Of course, you'd better control the risks. If no buyer is willing to take over, we have to buy these properties with our own money. , this is very bad."

Karina's MBA is not for nothing, she nodded confidently: "Don't worry, if the buyer thinks the price is too high, I will lower the price and sell it appropriately, making money is certain, it's just that you earn more and less. "

Niu Xiaoqiang smiled and said, "I didn't expect that you would get a chance to make money by going to your classmate's wedding, and it was also a chance for nothing."

Kailinna laughed and said, "This should be called good luck."

After the two chatted for a few words, Niu Xiaoqiang stood up and said, "You have to go out to discuss business tomorrow, so go to rest early."

Karina nodded and entered the house with shopping bags.

Karina was on a business trip for the next few days.Lime is headquartered in New York, and she needs to complete the negotiations in New York.

Niu Xiaoqiang has been studying at home all the time. During this period, he took time to go to school to learn about the progress of Professor Watson.Professor Watson has been working overtime all the time. Because of staying up late, his eye circles are dark, and he looks very tired.

Seeing how hard he was working so hard, Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't help persuading him, but Professor Watson told him that many professors of computer science had urged him to finish the project earlier so that everyone could experience artificial intelligence robots earlier.In order to take care of these people's feelings, he can only work overtime.

Niu Xiaoqiang couldn't persuade him anymore, he reminded the professor to pay attention to his health and returned home.

On October [-]th, Niu Xiaoqiang and Zhang Xiaolan came to the multi-purpose hall of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology early.

The night before yesterday, he received a call from Professor Watson. The professor told him on the phone that the conference of the artificial intelligence project will be officially held today. As participants in this project, Niu Xiaoqiang and Zhang Xiaolan should go to the scene to witness it. history.

According to the agreement between Niu Xiaoqiang and the professor, the main executor of this project is the professor himself, and the names of Niu Xiaoqiang and Zhang Xiaolan will not be announced to the outside world, and there will be no two signatures on any official documents.

If an acquaintance who knows the inside story asks, they will say that the two of them are just helping out and not involved in the core part of the work, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
