My courtyard shelter

"Whether I can make a comeback depends on whether you are willing to help me."

Mask hinted blatantly.

Xu Dong woke up instantly. The person opposite him was not only a former Silicon Valley boss and a new technology upstart, but also a veteran business fox.

Talking about feelings to the other party is like sending a sheep into the mouth of a tiger.

"Mike knows that I am the most fair person."

Xu Dong did not answer directly.

Mr. Mike nodded in cooperation and asked the two to sit down.

Mrs. Mike quickly brought pizza and a pot of freshly brewed coffee. Coffee is definitely a scarce commodity now, and it is really a matter of drinking less and less.

After all, the big plantations in the United States are gone.

In addition to the United States, few other countries grow coffee, including the European region and the Indian Peninsula. On the one hand, it is due to economic conditions that do not allow it, and on the other hand, there are factors such as high technical barriers.

As for Daxia, it is even more impossible.

Mike pointed at the afternoon tea and said, "Look, the pizza was brought by Lao Xu, and the coffee was given to me by Musk. What do you call this? This is a match made in heaven."

Xu Dong was too lazy to complain.

Since he was asking for help, Musk was very humble and praised the pizza to the heavens. Especially when he learned that the pizza was made by Lele, he was even more astonished on the spot and exclaimed:

"Incredible, unbelievable..."

Xu Dong felt that the other party was exaggerating too much.

After eating pizza and drinking coffee, the business began.

As a middleman, Mr. Mike first introduced the basic situation. Musk was interested in selling 3% of the shares, and the package price was 12 billion yuan.

Speaking of which, this discount was not small.

"Musk, I know this price is fair, and I want to agree to it, but I don't have that much money at the moment."

Xu Dong tried to suggest:

"How about 8 billion for 2% of the shares?"

Musk shook his head: "As for the funding issue, I can help you contact the bank. Coke Bakery and Xinke Seaweed are both very high-quality companies. I don't think any bank will refuse."

"Nonono, in fact, I personally prefer a more conservative management style. It's not that I can't accept loans, but it's definitely not now."

Xu Dong hurriedly explained.

"Mr. Xu, if a company wants to become bigger and stronger, it should learn to make good use of financial tools. A mere 2 billion in debt will have almost no impact on you."

Musk tried his best to persuade the other party.

His new plan requires so much money.

"Under normal circumstances, I agree with your point of view very much, but now it's different. The world situation has changed suddenly. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. It's good to be conservative."

Xu Dong waved his hand.

In fact, the root cause is his lack of confidence.

Without the advantage of rebirth and lack of relevant experience, the only thing he can think of at present is to "dig deep holes and store up food", and keep the same in the face of changes.

Seeing that he could not convince the other party, Musk immediately changed his mind.

"Mr. Xu, if you really have difficulties with funds, how about we exchange the extra shares for shares?"

"Oh, how do you want to exchange?"

Xu Dong was very interested.

As Mr. Mike said before, "Metaworld" has not been listed yet, and this kind of "original stock" is still very tempting.

"We can exchange it at the same value according to the company's valuation." "Metaworld" is currently valued at 500 billion yuan, and I want to exchange it for 10 billion in cash and 5 billion worth of stocks."

Musk temporarily increased the sale of shares.

He holds a total of 3.3% of shares in "Metaworld", which is equivalent to a full withdrawal.

Five years of listing time is too long, and he can't wait.

"Which company's shares do you want to exchange for?"

Xu Dong certainly won't refuse.

"I choose Xinke Seaweed."

Musk is full of adventurous spirit in his bones.

Although the market value of the bakery is higher, he doesn't care about it at all. In comparison, Xinke Haizao is undoubtedly much more high-end and more in line with his investment concept.

"No problem." Xu Dong took out his mobile phone on the spot, "At the current stock price, 5 billion can be exchanged for about 21.53 million shares. Let's use this as the exchange standard. What do you think?"

Xinke Haizao's current total market value is 5.6 billion yuan.

More than 21 million shares, accounting for about 5.8% of the shares, is already the second largest individual shareholder after Xu Dong.

After this stock exchange, Xu Dong's shareholding ratio will fall below 50% for the first time, which is equivalent to giving up absolute control.

Xinke Haizao is a high-tech company after all.

His personal shareholding is too much, which is not conducive to the development of the company. If there is a chance, he will release more shares. Only when the community of interests is large enough can the company go further.

"OK, I totally agree."

Masike said without hesitation.

Xu Dong did not hesitate and stretched out his right hand on the spot: "Happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation!"

"Pa pa pa... Congratulations to both of you."

Mr. Mike couldn't help but applaud.

Don't forget that he still has a commission of 1%.

It is equivalent to a one-time deposit of 200 million.

...

After reaching a consensus, both parties breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the transaction process, there will naturally be someone responsible for following up, and they only need to sign at the end.

After finishing the business, Xu Dong was very interested in Musk's next plan and couldn't help asking:

"Ma Si Ke, you have so much money now, where do you plan to start?"

"Aerospace has always been my ultimate dream, but unfortunately the current conditions do not allow it. The rocket cannot be launched at all. I can only choose to rebuild Tesla."

"It's a good idea. Europa and Usrael are going crazy. There's an energy crisis. Electric vehicles are a good development direction."

Xu Dong echoed.

Mike asked: "Is 10 billion enough?"

"It's definitely not enough, and the supply chain is also a big trouble. Fortunately, I have reached a preliminary cooperation intention with Shanghai Automobile Group and are ready to jointly fund the construction of the factory."

"Are you going to set up a factory in Shanghai and Beijing?"

"No, the factory will be located here in Sydney. The local industrial production in Daxia is extremely strictly controlled. From the space station to the bicycle, I can't get involved. This is my paradise."

Musk replied.

To be honest, in the current difficult situation, the planned economy is obviously more suitable than the market economy.

Take the simplest example.

If the market had been left alone, domestic plant factories would have blossomed all over the country. Some people may think that this is a good thing and can increase food supply.

In fact, the truth is not that simple.

Behind a plant factory, there is a huge upstream and downstream industrial chain involved, from the most basic use of electricity and water, to seeds and fertilizers that are easily ignored by ordinary people. If any link fails to keep up, it will have catastrophic consequences.

Blind expansion will only waste resources.

Right now, the most precious things are various resources.

Xu Dong asked curiously: "How do you allocate equity?"

"Shanghai Automobile Group accounts for 70%, and I account for 30%."

"Can you agree to this?"

Xu Dong said in surprise.

Ma Si Ke shook his head helplessly: "I can't agree to it. I have nothing but money now. Do you think Shanghai Automobile is short of money?"

"I remember you had a factory in Shanghai and Beijing before, right?"

"Oh, I quit a long time ago. Without a complete industrial chain, how can I build a car?"

"That seems to be true."

Xu Dong nodded.

Even if the other party does not withdraw, it is estimated that there will not be much room for survival. After all, the country has fully shifted to a state of emergency at that time, and the civilian car market has been severely suppressed, almost non-existent.
