Chapter 180 Merging

The offshore drilling platform is like a thin man with a fat waist and a big belly. The slender lower columns support the thickness of the two hulls in the middle. ╚ ^ ╝The superstructure is like a chin after liposuction, and there are few usable places under the countless folds.

A barge towed the platform and slowly sailed towards Chengdao Oilfield.

Su Cheng and the others boarded the commuter boat and followed behind, watching the platform in front of them lower the boat, pull out piles, support navigation, put in place, and ballast...

Four or five hundred workers, engineers and others crowded on the deck, fascinated.

In their eyes, the gyro-like drilling platform is simply too beautiful to behold, like a 50-meter-long beauty, it couldn't be more beautiful.

It took only one day to complete the previous planning and arrangement, expected material reporting, shortening of the process chain, and implementation of cross-operation.

When Sha Mingyin reported "everything is ready" on the walkie-talkie, the joy of the crowd also affected the foreigners present.

Jason patted Sioux City on the shoulder and said, "We must celebrate. I believe Dahua Shipbuilding will go well."

"Dahua Shipbuilding has sufficient orders. As long as the operation is adjusted properly, profits will not be a problem." Su Cheng said calmly.What he pursues is no longer pure profit.

Jason smiled at Sioux City, and said seriously: "I strongly advocate the completion of this investment. If it can be successful, I will definitely promote the further cooperation between Halliburton and Dahua Shipbuilding."

Su Cheng knew what he was thinking, and said with a smile: "In terms of management, there is no problem with Halliburton. I believe that with Halliburton's connections, the company will expand rapidly."

"Don't worry." Jason nodded gratefully.The new company is located in Hong Kong, but the production plant is located in the mainland, which is to take advantage of abundant cheap labor.

However, if the operation is also handed over to the mainland, the future of the shipping company will be hard to say when Dahua Industrial's order is completed. In the late 80s, China's terms of trade were much weaker than those of Southeast Asian countries.

Simon's expression was a little awkward, he just looked but didn't speak.The pace of Halliburton's acquisitions is ongoing, and they have taken a fancy to several companies, including Feynor Shipping.In this capital operation, Simon, who is the sales director in Asia, can only obey the destiny.Considering the possibility of becoming a subordinate of Jason and the yellow race, Simon was naturally in a bad mood.

Hu Jian stood on the other side of Sucheng, listening to them, sighing secretly.COSCO Shipyard has long wanted to join the international bidding team, but they couldn't do the difficult ones, and couldn't make it through the simple ones. In the end, they couldn't make it up and down, and continued to do ship repairing.

At this time, he also looked at the shallow sea drilling platform in front of him with some worry.Privately estimated that even after learning something and going back, COSCO Shipyard will not be able to build such a shallow sea drilling platform. As Dahua Shipbuilding opens a new road for China's offshore oil equipment, Hu Jian is worried that the company in front will put The cakes are divided cleanly.

Unknowingly, it was getting late, and the commuter boat started the engine, circled the drilling platform, hung up colorful flags, and returned to land.

behind.The headlights were turned on at the derrick, as if a torch had been lit in the middle of the sea.The cold circulating water and the rumbling sound of drilling rigs make the silence of this sea area disappear.

Su Cheng turned around and glanced at Hu Jian, and said with a smile, "Manager Hu, even if this order is finished, what's COSCO Shipping's idea?"

"Naturally, we will continue to fight for orders. No matter how you say it, it's better than the profit of repairing the ship." Hu Jianfang was about 50 years old and looked younger. Standing at the bow of the ship, he also looked a little high-spirited. If a large platform of 200 meters is built abroad, it may cost [-] million US dollars, but in China, the cost is only half of it. Even so, it is a rare large order for COSCO Shipping.

Su Cheng smiled, and said, "At least ship repairs can continue to prosper. If you're unlucky, the money earned from offshore oil equipment may not necessarily be more than ship repairs."

"But the output value of a single person is much higher than that of repairing a ship." Hu Jian stroked the newly grown stubble, and said, "The most important thing for us state-owned enterprises is the output value of a single person. Because people are recruited, they cannot be dismissed, so we must Doing high value-added work should not be aimed at pure profit, as that kind of business risk is too great.”

Su Cheng didn't look at him with admiration, and said, "Manager Hu, if COSCO Shipyard has such a leader, it will only take a few years for COSCO Shipping to prosper."

"If you say that, I take it seriously." Hu Jian felt refreshed all over. After all, Su Cheng had nothing to ask him for. This beautiful remark was completely different from the flattery he received in ordinary times.

The celebration on deck grew louder, and Jason was dragged into the lively crowd by his compatriots.Su Cheng smiled and looked ahead until his sight was blocked by a piece of fiery red cloth.

"Director Su, my name is He Yuwei. Like Manager Hu, I am the executive manager of COSCO Shipping." He Yuwei is at least 30 years old, with an oval face and long bangs. On Mr. Yellow's boat, it is so dazzling that it is impossible to squint.

Hu Jian rushed up from behind, pushed aside his secretary, and said to Su Cheng, "Director Su, this is my deputy, He Yuwei. She just arrived today, so let her board the ship first."

Su Cheng smiled understandingly, faced He Yuwei, and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Actually, I would like to invite Director Su to have two meals, and I will ask for it after I get acquainted. However, since I asked, I will say it directly. Is it possible for COSCO Shipyard to become a shareholder of Dahua Industrial and What about sharing technology?" He Yuwei said the business in a joking tone, it would be hard for a man to tolerate this, but a woman has the upper hand, so she won't find it weird.

Su Cheng also wouldn't take her as a joke, and frowned, "Well, how does Manager He want to invest?"

"We pay a certain percentage of funds, such as 30%, and then get 30% of the shares, and share the technology of Dahua Shipping Industry." He Yuwei took a quick look at Hu Jian and continued: "We have always had no access. Now Seeing an opportunity, please don't blame Mr. Su Cheng."

Her words are in line with Hu Jian's previous emotion.It's just that Hu Jian is obviously calm and can bear the fate of working first and then being the boss, while He Yuwei is a little eager for success.

Su Cheng thought about it, and said with a smile: "If you can really invest in Dahua Shipbuilding, it won't do me any harm. But, I don't agree with it."

"What?" He Yuwei puffed up her chest unconsciously while her eyes widened.She is slightly short in stature, but she is exquisite and attractive.

Su Cheng took a quick glance, retracted his gaze, lowered his head and said, "The 50% ratio between the two parties is the result of a compromise. If I discuss or agree, Jensen will think that we conspired to seize control, and instead Not beautiful. I don't want to break this trust, and I hope you can understand." Su Cheng said it politely, but also quietly pointed out the pros and cons: the shares acquired by COSCO will affect the controlling stake.

He Yuwei nodded gratefully and said: "I understand, but I don't know how much money should be used for 30% of Wang You's shares?"

"Dahua Industrial invested more than 1000 million U.S. dollars in technology and capital. The company's total capital is about 4000 million. This money is mainly used to acquire foreign small and medium-sized shipping companies to form its own technology system. The total amount is estimated to be enough." Su Cheng smiled warmly, just like his performance in front of people.

"I can also help with the acquisition of companies. Which company do you like?"

"Nucor in the Netherlands is ranked first, and then there is a company in Norway and the UK, and Feynor in Germany is also under consideration. I heard that I have contacted all of these."

"It is said that?"

"The acquisition of Halliburton is complete."

He Yuwei shook her head again and again, and said, "How can this work? It's easy to be deceived by others. Don't private companies care about money now? I'm going to talk to Halliburton's representative now..."

"It's Jason." Su Cheng corrected.

"Yes, Jason." He Yuwei laughed, and the shrewdness disappeared, leaving behind a mature caress.

Su Cheng didn't ask much: "Do you have enough funds?"

"This year, the central government seems to have special funds for this purpose, and we, COSCO, are qualified to fight for it." After He Yuwei finished speaking, she hurriedly went to find Jason.

Hu Jian sighed, and said: "Director Su, I'm sorry, He Yuwei's background is different from ours. After arriving in Shanghai, she only wanted to do big things and caused trouble. "

He also quietly pointed out that He Yuwei has a background.

In fact, without her saying it, Su Cheng knew it too.How can ordinary people dare to say that they have won the special funds from the central government.In addition, at the age of 40, Hu Jian became the executive manager of COSCO Shipping very quickly. This He Yuwei reached the same position at a young age, and the chance of relying on hard work is too low.

Su Cheng nodded and said, "No matter what, COSCO Shipping is a Chinese company, and Dahua Shipping is not the core business of our Dahua Industry. If He Yuwei can get shares, it will be a good thing for both parties."

"But it's not a good thing for Halliburton, is it?" Hu Jian understood what he meant.

Su Cheng said with a smile: "So let him seek Jason's consent. If he can sell certain interests and satisfy Jason, then everyone will be satisfied. If not, then everything will continue as usual. Manager Hu, no matter what Whether COSCO Shipyard can get a share, and engineering, I hope to worry a lot."

"Definitely." Hu Jian said, still feeling a little sorry, and explained again: "COSCO Shipping has been a downstream enterprise for so many years, and has always wanted to develop upstream. He Yuwei is still a young man, and she is a little impatient... Take care. "

When Hu Jian talked about the latter, he couldn't continue.Ever since he studied Su Cheng's resume, he has never regarded Su Cheng as a young man, but when talking face to face, Su Cheng looks so young...

"Our Dahua also wants to strive for the top. No matter whether we succeed this time, we still have a chance next time." Su Cheng changed the topic calmly. With Halliburton's foreign investment background, as a super oil service provider that can conduct business in 185 countries around the world, they have a lot of experience in dealing with local snakes.

Even if He Yuwei doubled the benefits, he might not be able to persuade Jason.

Dahua Industrial can use more than 1000 million US dollars to invest in shares. In addition to the investment in cash and technology, there are also hidden orders.Abu Dhabi's Seitan Oilfield requires at least five large offshore drilling platforms, and depending on the exploration situation, it may require more than eight in the later stage.These orders are the basis for the start of Dahua Shipbuilding.

On the other hand, Sioux City and Halliburton have cooperated many times, and COSCO Shipping's background as a central enterprise is actually an obstacle at this time.

It didn't take long for He Yuwei to come back with a cold face, and Jason's rejection was straightforward, without giving her a chance to explain.

Before asking, He Yuwei said to Su Cheng: "Director Su, is there any way for COSCO Shipping to join this cooperation?"

"The success of this cooperation depends to a large extent on the acquired foreign company. With the technology of Dahua Industrial alone, we will definitely not have an advantage in the bidding for offshore oil equipment. Halliburton It's just one foot into this circle..." Su Cheng half persuaded and half explained.

Seeing that Su Cheng was absent-minded, He Yuwei asked, "What should Dahua Industrial do to help?"

"There's really nothing I can do to help." Su Cheng spread his hands and said.

He Yuwei glanced at him with a smile, without forcing her, she turned her eyes and said, "Let's talk about it next time."

Seeing her stepping off the deck, Su Cheng was not surprised. He turned to Hu Jian and said, "Manager Hu, you have to find out for me. What's going on?"

"This... Hu Jian hesitated and didn't say it.

"Looking at Manager He's appearance, he doesn't seem to care much about money." Years later, state-owned enterprises could not care about money, but in 1989, foreign exchange was a very rare thing, and it was not something that could be obtained as needed. relationship, and a personal relationship.

More than 1000 million US dollars, there is no doubt that it is a big favor.No matter how excellent He Yuwei's family background is, this is the case.This made Sioux City feel strange. If it was just the transformation of COSCO Shipping, an executive manager, He Yuwei, didn't have to be so active.

From Sioux City's point of view, central enterprises with strong capital and huge financing advantages do not need to pursue emerging hot spots at all. When the market matures, it is the right way to press them with policy and capital advantages. The same is true for IBM, a giant blue from the world.

Hu Jian was quite scrupulous, and whispered: "If it's more than 1000 million, Manager He can indeed do it."

"More than 1000 million US dollars, is it necessary?" The money for Sioux City's investment was borrowed from Formosa Plastics, and the purpose was also to develop the Seitan oil field, which was similar to the wind blowing.No matter how good He Yuwei's family background is, it is more difficult than him to make money with the template of COSCO Shipping.

Hu Jian said helplessly: "We took the initiative to seek foreign investment, but it has never been successful. A company like Halliburton is simply... how should I put it, it is indeed worth more than 1000 million."

"You want to go public?" Su Cheng asked suspiciously.

"How could it be?" Hu Jian smiled.

"If you really want to invest in Dahua Shipbuilding, you have to let me know something." Su Cheng curled his lips against the sea breeze, with a salty taste.

Hu Jian thought for a long time, and it was indeed the case, and then slowly said: "We have received news that we are about to merge with several companies such as Shangyuan Transportation."
