Reborn as the richest man in India.
Chapter 512 I want Tata Steel
"Yes, but now I have almost spent my money investing everywhere, so I thought about asking the country for help." Qiao Ge said with a smile.
"You have invested more than 10 billion US dollars, isn't it enough?" Manmohan asked, "How big an appetite do you have?"
"The current investment in iron ore is definitely sufficient for the time being and can last for a while." Qiao Ge said, "The next step is some of my own personal investments, such as coal mines, such as the acquisition of foreign steel plants, etc. They all require a lot of funds. I have other sources of funds..."
Qiao Ge told Lawrence and Rohatin the situation.
After listening to what Qiao Ge said, Manmohan said: "Now that you have a good relationship with them, I believe you can get a lot of loans. If the National Bank guarantees it, I will get you a US$5 million line."
"5 million?" Qiao Ge frowned.
"Qiaogo, don't be too small. In fact, I can't guarantee success with US$5 million." Manmohan sighed, "After all, our country has just recovered. What happened in the past two years was that the government almost went bankrupt. Foreign countries I'm not sure whether the bank recognizes this guarantee. If the amount is too large, they will also have doubts."
"It's already very good. No matter how much it is, I understand it." Qiao Ge said with a smile, "Of course, I may not be able to use it now. I will first find Lawrence and Rohatin. If they don't have enough, , come find you again."
In fact, Qiao Ge was thinking about whether he could get a guarantee of US$10 billion, but thinking about Manmohan's words, he really wanted to keep things simple.
Now that the government has calmed down a little bit, it is really hard for us to have too high expectations.
Fortunately, he is not taking out a loan now. With the improvement of the domestic economy, Qiao Ge feels that it will be no problem to guarantee US$10 billion after a while.
There is a country as a backing, and it is also a large country. This is a natural advantage, which makes Qiaogo relatively stable.
Because the country's foreign exchange reserves will continue to increase in the future, the US$10 billion that seems to be a lot now is just average, and I can borrow more.
Of course, all this must be done to show his strength and let the government know how powerful he is, so that Manmohan can better convince others.
Even if Manmohan retires in the future and someone else comes to power, as long as he is strong enough, the government cannot ignore his request.
"Okay." Manmohan smiled.
He could see that Qiao Ge was looking for more financing channels and was really ready to do something big.
Hundreds of billions of dollars were invested, but it was still not enough.
In his opinion, with Qiaogo's current net worth, it is very possible to borrow US$5 million from Rohatin and Lawrence. If he guarantees another US$ million for him, that would be another US$ billion investment. .
You know, India's current foreign exchange reserves are less than 100 billion US dollars.
Qiaogo's investment this time is probably close to 30 billion US dollars, equivalent to one-third of the country's foreign exchange, so terrifying.
Manmohan had to sigh that he was really lucky to know Qiao Ge. This young man's development far exceeded his imagination. He didn't know how far he would grow in the future.
Maybe it is really possible for him to reach the peak of power in the country?
Manmohan didn't dare to think like this before. The reason is very simple.
His status in the Congress Party is not that high, and there are many others who are higher than him.
But now he is the Minister of Finance, a position he had never dared to think of before.
So as Qiao Ge continues to grow stronger, it is not impossible for him to fight for the throne in the future.
"But there is something I want to ask you what you really think." Manmohan asked again.
"what's up?"
"What do you think of Tata Group and Reliance Group?" Manmohan paused here and continued, "Do you really want to fight with them in the truck, steel and petrochemical industries?"
"Mr. Singh, speaking of which, this matter should be brought to them, right?" Qiao Ge asked.
"I know this." Manmohan sighed, "They were the ones who started the trouble, and you fought back. But no matter what, you are all big domestic companies and an important force in the market. If such a fight occurs, it will be very harmful to the country. It’s a huge loss.”
"No, no, no, Mr. Singh, I don't agree with what you said." Qiaogo said immediately, "I think this is conducive to the development of the country."
Qiao Ge's words stunned Manmohan for a moment.
"Only with competition can we progress and develop." Qiao Ge said, "The next step is economic globalization. We have to compete with products from other countries. If we only care about one-third of an acre of domestic land and rely on some connections to eat all kinds of If there are benefits, then these products are not competitive at all internationally. Competition like ours can improve technology and increase efficiency. I believe it will be very helpful for entering overseas markets in the future."
Manmohan was speechless for a while.
Although he believed that what Qiao Ge said was correct and that looking at the world was definitely his future goal, this kind of thing was easy to say but too difficult to do.
For now, Qiaogo is investing abroad and is very successful.
Even the Tata Group, which has a history of more than a century, has not been able to do anything else.
Not to mention Reliance Group.
Most of their current business is domestic, and there is no comparison with Qiaogo.
"Actually, the domestic market is very large. One industry can fully accommodate two or three companies. I think there should be no problem." Qiao Ge added.
"That's true, but now Tata Motors' sales have plummeted by more than 50% under your impact. This is because your production capacity has not yet increased. If it does, they don't know whether they can maintain 10% of the market share. ." Manmohan said. "This is all the customer's choice. We can't say that we should let them buy products with low cost performance, right?" Qiao Ge said with a faint smile.
Manmohan had a headache and didn't know how to persuade Qiao Ge.
It is obviously impossible for Qiaogo to give up his own interests.
"Did they ask you to be a lobbyist?" Qiao Ge asked with a smile.
He knew very well that it should be the Tata Group and Reliance Group, and they should have approached Manmohan.
"Have they approached me and hoped to contact you through me to see if they can reconcile privately?" Manmohan said.
If Qiao Ge didn't come today, he was going to find Qiao Ge.
He still hopes that the three of them can reconcile and some unnecessary competition can be completely put aside.
Those two families asked him to act as a middleman, which actually shows that those two families are a little afraid of Qiao Ge.
"Of course, I think they have to pay a certain price as compensation for you." Manmohan said again.
Of course he is partial to Qiaogo, because he has the closest relationship with Qiaogo.
Before, Tata Group and Reliance Group each had politicians who supported him, but he had not really caught their attention.
There was no way, my status was not that high at that time.
It can be said that the relationship between himself and Qiao Ge started from a weak age, and the relationship is even closer.
Besides, he knows the true strength of Qiaogo, which is better than the other two, so is there any need to talk about this side?
"Oh? How much benefit are they willing to give up?" Qiao Ge asked.
"Tata Motors wants to ensure a 40% share of the truck market." Manmohan said, "With your power, it should be no problem to account for % by then, and the remaining % will be other companies. In the petrochemical industry, they The two think that you should not exceed %, and they will share the rest with other companies.”
"For trucks, I can definitely achieve more than 40%." Qiao Ge said with a smile, "In terms of petrochemical industry, I think this market is very big, with a market share of %. I don't have much confidence myself. How could they do this? look?"
"Qiaogo, you are being humble. They also understand some of your affairs in Russia." Manmohan smiled, "The cost of your oil source is low. When the time comes, it will be more cost-effective than them." Huge advantage. And you have sufficient funds, so you can continue to expand the scale of the factory. Don't say 40%, you can win more. They are also worried about the future, so they want to negotiate with you first."
"Is this what they call profit sharing?" Qiao Ge said.
"For now, that's what they mean," Manmohan replied.
"I don't see how sincere they are." Qiao Ge sneered, "I can take these shares myself, and there is no need for them to transfer them. Are you treating me as a fool?"
"What do you mean?" Manmohan asked.
Of course he knows that Qiaogo has this strength. With Qiaogo's current development trend, neither Tata Group nor Reliance Group can be Qiaogo's opponent.
By then, they will probably be defeated steadily when facing Qiaogo's offensive. Even if Qiaogo faces their resistance, he will eventually be able to capture these shares, or even more.
So in Qiaogo's view, this is not a benefit they gave up, because Qiaogo can get it himself and deserves it.
In fact, Manmohan certainly understands this, but now he is just conveying some opinions of the two opposite families.
If we really want to talk, Qiao Ge and them will definitely have to bargain.
"I want Tata Steel, and I want to invest in and control Reliance Group's petrochemical industry," Qiaogo said. "After these are negotiated, I can make some concessions in other aspects."
Manmohan's eyes widened. He knew that Qiao Ge would put forward some conditions, but he didn't expect them to be so shocking. I'm afraid the two opposing companies couldn't agree to these two conditions.
"Qiaogo, is there any room?" Manmohan asked.
"Just tell them like this, it's up to them whether to accept it or not," said Qiaogo.
"I understand." Manmohan said, "I won't advise you on these matters. I believe you must have some considerations in your mind."
Although he could persuade Qiao Ge based on his position, he didn't want to do so.
Advise Qiaogo to give up his own interests?
So what would Qiaogo think of him? Would he think that he was on the opposite side?
Manmohan will not do such stupid things. He is now acting as an intermediary.
It is up to them to negotiate the specific conditions later.
Whether the government needs to intervene at that time will be decided by the people above. In short, he is firmly on Qiaogo's side.
If Tata Group and Reliance Group really want to reconcile with Qogo, they will have to pay a price, and this price must be not small.
Since the two of them are willing to accept weakness, I believe they should be mentally prepared for this.
"Don't worry, you won't embarrass the country." Qiao Ge said with a smile.
"That's good." Manmohan laughed loudly, "Qiaogo, feel free to do it, especially overseas. We Indians also need to make a voice on the international stage, and you are the best example. In terms of financial guarantee , I will definitely help you fight for it, and I will also convince the Prime Minister." (End of Chapter)
