Chapter 431 Opportunity
The old man suddenly asked Shi Lei to go home, which surprised Shi Xixuan.What's going on, didn't you communicate with Master Yao, saying that this Shi Lei is an ominous person, the lone star of the evil spirit?And he also asked Shi Guangshan to act in a sick scene, the old man also believed it, why did he suddenly change his attitude?
Shi Xixuan asked his wife who had been staying at home. It turned out that Master Yao came to the house again and chatted with the old man in the study for a while.When Master Yao left, the old man always had a happy expression on his face, and he didn't say anything to anyone who asked him.

Shi Xixuan suddenly remembered that his second child called him two days ago, saying that Shi Lei was engaged.At that time, he still thought, an engagement, a marriage with a merchant family not as good as our Shi family, is it worth his trip?If it's the daughter of a senior government official, he really wants to come back.Besides, it wasn't marriage, it was just engagement, so he called to express his congratulations, but didn't say anything else.

Now it seems that this engagement is very strange.Shi Xitong has stayed in the capital for so many years, and his habits are similar to those of the northerners, but there is no such thing as engagement in the capital, and the woman's family is an authentic northerner, and there is no custom of engagement, except for baby relatives.What does the high-profile engagement of these two families mean?
Shi Xixuan really wanted to call Master Yao to ask questions, but he knew very well that the identities between him and Master Yao were too different. Master Yao returned him a favor and could do him a small favor. It must be that someone more important has spoken, and if he speaks again, it will not have any effect, but it will cause Master Yao's displeasure, and maybe it will have the opposite effect. It is better to let Master Yao continue to owe him a favor. At critical moments, he can help him.

This time, he used Shi Lei to trick his second child, but it seemed to have failed.Not only did it fail, but it made the old man feel that he owed his second child, and maybe it would be better for his second child.The second child already occupies the largest branch of Taishi International, the largest market, the most resources, and is the closest to the head office, so he has advantages over him in everything. Now with the old man's eccentricity, his position is in danger.

What made Shi Xixuan happy was that Shi Lei did not accept the old man's kindness, and bluntly said that he was not free, which made the old man furious.He asked Shi Lei to go back, expressing that he accepted Shi Lei, but he didn't expect Shi Lei to pretend to be stubborn!Hmph, you won't come, and then don't come back!

"Leizi, Dad doesn't know how you persuaded Master Yao to tell your grandfather that you can prevent disasters by getting engaged. You must have your own way. Dad doesn't ask too much. Now that your grandfather has expressed his apology, I asked you to go back alone, just to chat with you, why would you not want to? Anyway, he is also your own grandfather. "

In the study room, there were only Shi Xitong and Shi Lei, both smoking cigars.Shi Xitong has been persuading him for half an hour, but Shi Lei just won't let go.Such a grandfather, don't mind.What he wanted was Shi Xitong's family affection that cared for him, not Shi Chuxiong's so-called family affection that was considered for the benefit of the family.To put it bluntly, he still has no relationship with Shi Chuxiong.If it were Shi Guangshan or Shi Guangfeng, would Shi Chuxiong believe it?

"Dad, I have nothing to do and I'm leaving first, and I invited a classmate to dinner today." Shi Lei stood up and said.

"Hey~~ you go, drink less, don't drive."

……

A week later, Shi Xitong received a call from a friend, asking Shi Xitong to help him buy some shipyard design technology and sales channels.

Taishi International does have shares in some shipyards, but it is far behind the requirements of Ludong Heavy Industry.What others want is advanced technology and design concepts. Those shipyards in which Taishi International holds shares may not be as strong as Ludong Heavy Industry.

However, Ludong Heavy Industry is not only a large state-owned enterprise, but also receives some military orders. The energy of this Ludong Heavy Industry boss can be seen.

When Shi Xitong received his call, he was also a little surprised. Since the other party spoke up, even if Shi Xitong was losing money, he would still help Ludong Heavy Industry achieve this goal. A boss is likely to give him a hand.

Sure enough, after chatting with Mr. Li of Ludong Heavy Industry, I realized that Ludong Heavy Industry's goal is the design and technology of those large shipyards in Europe and America.For Ludong Heavy Industry, this is a hard order.

It’s not that Ludong Heavy Industry can’t negotiate on its own, it’s just that the target shipbuilding companies they are looking at, others will not sell the technology alone, if they want to sell it, they will sell it all. It needs billions of RMB. For Ludong Heavy Industry, it is far beyond They have a bottom price in their hearts.I heard that Taishi International has a branch in Europe. I would like to ask if I can help to find out if the other party is willing to sell some of the brand's designs and technologies.

Shi Xitong immediately reported the problem to the headquarters, and from the headquarters to the European branch and the American branch, let them inspect some shipbuilding companies in Europe and America respectively. Those companies are interested in selling, preferably with advanced technology and able to part for sale.

The European branch inspected the Azmo Group, which is also a top European shipbuilding company. Yachts are sold all over the world, as well as various types of boats such as fishing boats.But the other party not only has no intention of selling technology, but also plans to expand recently.

The American branch is even more perfunctory. Shi Xixuan specially inspected several shipbuilding companies, all of which are very profitable shipbuilding companies, and one of them has Taishi International American branch as a shareholder.These companies are all making profits, and their technology brands are very good. How could they be willing to sell technology?
In fact, there is really a plan to sell, which belongs to poor management.But Shi Xixuan deliberately didn't tell the headquarters, and just waited to see Shi Xitong's jokes.After Shi Xitong became an ant on the hot pot, he would spread the news of the company's intention to sell, and then he would be able to act as a landlord and represent Taishi International to negotiate an acquisition with this company.It's not about how much money he can make himself, the main thing is that he can impress everyone on the board of directors that he is very capable, especially in the heart of the old man.

Little did they know that Shi Lei and Shi Xitong had said that the reason why Master Yao never told the old man was Shi Xixuan's idea of ​​such a simple way to resolve his fate.Shi Xitong had already prepared himself against this elder brother.Although the two will not attack each other, normal competition still happens from time to time. Who doesn't want to eventually become the leader of Taishi International?
So Shi Xitong is also looking for people to investigate in America and Europe, especially the companies that Ludong Heavy Industry has long been interested in.Brunswick Group in the Americas, Azimu Group and Ferretti Group in Italy.Among them, Ludong Heavy Industry is most optimistic about Ferretti Group, which is the largest yacht design and manufacturing company in Europe.

In the past, Ferretti was No.1 in Europe and one of the best in the world. However, the company made mistakes in its decision-making and blindly developed large-powered yachts, which caused the company's capital chain to break. In the past two years, it has been unable to make ends meet and suffered continuous losses.

Mr. Li of Ludong Heavy Industry took his team to discuss in person, and wanted to buy some of the other party's designs and technologies, but Ferretti Group said, either buy them all, or not sell them!In addition to yachts, the holding company of Ferretti Group also has other shipbuilding industries.Now they plan to give up the yacht and focus on other large ships.

Mr. Li tentatively asked, how much does the Ferretti Group plan to sell?The other party directly quoted an offer of [-] million euros, which scared Mr. Li back.

Not to mention [-] million euros, even [-] million U.S. dollars, Ludong Heavy Industry can't get it out.If you look at the number of orders from Ludong Heavy Industry, this company still has a profit of one billion RMB a year. Unfortunately, many of them are military products, which belong to tasks and have zero profit. As a result, Ludong Heavy Industry’s annual profit is only a few hundred million yuan. , still have to be handed in, even the research and development funds are not enough, how can there be funds to buy the Ferretti Group?

Now the higher-ups have finally let go, but they only prepared 20 billion RMB. This amount of money, not to mention the Ferretti Group, even a company that is half the size, he can't buy it.

Didn't I hear that Taishi International also took shares in some shipyards, so I wanted to ask whether Taishi International has a way to let them pay a lower price, mainly to buy technology.

Of course Shi Xitong wanted to complete this order, whether he made money or not was the second priority, and earning favors was the real thing.If we can take this opportunity to get on line with the top, or with the leaders of the army~, then Taishi International will definitely have better development in China, and it will be flat in the future.

Knowing the news, Shi Chuxiong took it very seriously, and told the bosses of the two branches that they must find a shipbuilding company worth buying, but who knew that the two bosses were deliberately perfunctory?
The boss of the European branch has a better relationship with Shi Xixuan, so he won't particularly cooperate with Shi Xixuan's hint this time.Especially this time, once a good buyer is found, the old man said that Taishi International Asia-Pacific Branch will be responsible. Isn't that handing over to Shi Xitong?In their market, let Shi Xitong come to intervene, of course he will not do it.

As a result, a week later, the two branches sent a report to the head office respectively. Although some shipbuilding companies were listed on it, none of them were worth buying.

Either the technology is not good enough to meet the requirements of Ludong Heavy Industry, or the price is too high. It is too expensive to buy such a company and sell it to Ludong Group as a favor.Three to five billion favors, Taishi International can do it, three to five billion favors, Taishi International is not so generous, and Ludong Heavy Industry is not worthy of Taishi International's investment.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Shi Xitong’s friend came back after inquiring about the news. The parent company of Ferretti Group seems to have made up its mind to sell Ferretti Group. , Take down this company and fulfill the entrustment of Ludong Heavy Industry.

Shi Xitong immediately took people to the Ferretti Group to negotiate, and found someone to re-evaluate the market value and debt ratio of the Ferretti Group, and also asked the head office to help contact the buyer. Ludong Heavy Industry bought some technologies and brands , the rest can't stay in Taishi International, they still have to be sold.
