Chapter 387: Technology park agreement reached
April 25th.
On this day, Zhuke sent a representative and arrived in Seattle.
"welcome!"
"This is Mundo Gusta, the deputy mayor of Seattle, and I welcome Mr. Liszt to visit Seattle."
Mundo Gusta, male, 43 years old, has served as a member of the Seattle City Council, a member of the Washington State Legislature, and director of the Seattle Mayor’s Office. He currently serves as the deputy mayor of Seattle and is in charge of economic development.
"You are polite, Mr. Gusta. If nothing else, I hope this will be our last negotiation!" said Baggio Liszt Jr.
As a member of Zhu Ke’s think tank, he was the vice president of Aviva Commercial Insurance Company in the United Kingdom. He is good at information gathering, and he is also very good at negotiation.
Gusta solemnly said: "Of course, I also hope that we can reach an agreement in this negotiation."
Liszt smiled and said, "I wish we have a happy cooperation."
"Well, happy cooperation!" Deputy Mayor Gusta firmly said.
Soon...As for the construction of the science and technology industrial park, representatives of the Seattle local government and Zhu Ke formally started negotiations.
negotiation!
In fact, since Zhu Ke visited Seattle in June 1999, he decided to invest here. Well, he invested a lot of money, so he kept sending people to negotiate with the local government.
However, in bank loans, loan interest, local corporate taxes, preferential policies, public transportation construction, resettlement of migrants...
There are differences between the two sides on these issues.
Especially with regard to bank loans!
The Internet bubble burst, and a large number of companies went bankrupt, and many banks were implicated. Bad debts, bad debts, and dead debts abound. Banks are short of money.
"Mr. Gusta, many local banks in Seattle have close relations with your government. With your guarantee, plus the financial resources of my boss, Mr. Zhuke Wald, how can there be arrears?"
Baggio Liszt Jr. said sternly: "A bank loan of US$800 million is not a problem for the local Seattle bank."
Hearing this, Gusta smiled bitterly.
The bank representatives who accompanied Gusta as the negotiating team also twitched their mouths slightly.
800 million US dollars loan, put it lightly.
However, no one knows that the economy is going down and the U.S. dollar continues to depreciate. Zhu Ke wants to borrow a lot from the bank. To put it bluntly, he wants to take advantage of the bank.
After exchanging opinions with several bank representatives, Gusta replied: "Mr. Lister, the bank can lend your company a loan of 800 million US dollars, but the annual repayment interest must reach 6.3%."
The voice just fell.
Liszt suddenly became angry.
"You are so insincere!"
"According to the current "Banking Law" currently implemented in Seattle, the annual interest rate for repayment in 5-7 years is 6.1%. And our boss loaned you 800 million US dollars, not only without any discount, it was even 0.2% higher?! "
Liszt talked freely, his face full of anger.
The team members who came with the trip also had a posture of going away if they didn't agree with each other. At the time of the nation's economic downturn, Zhu Ke's team really didn't worry about these banks.
Gusta: "..."
Bank representatives: "..."
At this critical moment, Liszt threw a major bait.
"On the basis of the total investment of 3 billion US dollars in the science and technology park, an additional US$ 1 billion will be added to evolve into a total investment of US$ 4 billion."
"At the same time, from 2000 to 2002, the total investment of the first phase will not be less than 2 billion US dollars!"
As soon as the voice fell, the Seattle negotiating team knelt immediately.
Especially Gusta, the deputy mayor of Seattle, was even more excited.
The science and technology park with a total investment of 4 billion US dollars is divided into various subsidiary industries and multiple income industries. How many jobs will this bring? What huge economic benefits can it bring?
These are all results!
So, Gusta compromised~
There is nothing to say about the bank.
"800 million US dollars bank loan, 4.5% annual interest on repayment!"
——This is the final decision.
At the same time, with regard to local corporate taxes, preferential policies, public transportation construction, and other issues, Baggio Liszt Jr. also won the greatest interest for Zucker.
The science and technology park covers an area of approximately 900 acres (approximately 5,400 acres). After nearly 10 months of negotiation and negotiation, an agreement was finally reached today.
...
The total investment in the first phase of the Science and Technology Park is as high as 2 billion US dollars!
The bank borrowed 800 million U.S. dollars, which means that Zhu Ke will also give out 1.2 billion U.S. dollars in cash.
On this issue, Zhu Ke exchanged views with the think tank.
"If I take the science and technology park project as a mortgage, can I borrow a large amount of funds from other banks?" Zhu Ke asked.
Obviously, Zhu Ke intends to empty the white wolf.
However, Zhu Ke's idea was rejected by the think tank members.
On the phone, Baggio Liszt shook his head and said: "Boss, if your project is a real estate or commercial real estate project, I can lend you no less than US$2 billion in cash from the bank within three days. It's a pity that it can't work in the Science Park!"
Ms. Anna, a private financial adviser, also echoed: "The content of Internet stocks and technology stocks has fallen sharply. In today's environment, banks are afraid to lend money like this."
"Uh?"
Zhuke was choked.
The empty glove white wolf is obviously not applicable.
...
The agreement for a science and technology park with a total value of US$4 billion and an investment of US$2 billion in the first phase was formally signed, and the two parties left and announced the "shocking" news to the outside world.
Suddenly, there was a lot of cheers in Seattle!
"Mr. Wald is really timely rain!" a middle-aged woman exclaimed.
"Isn't it. The U.S. economy is in decline nowadays, and all walks of life are seriously damaged. Especially our proud Amazon company in Seattle, but now its market value has plummeted." A middle school teacher sighed. A genius remembers 噺バ一Chinese m.x/8/1/z/w.c/o/m/
After the Internet bubble exploded, as many as 100 companies went bankrupt in Seattle ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ the unemployed population was as high as 14,000.
The huge unemployed population will undoubtedly cause tremendous social pressure on Seattle's local economy, politics, and public security.
But now it's different!
Zhuke’s local investment in Seattle can at least solve the reemployment problem of 3,000 people and greatly ease the local pressure.
Seattle government;
Seattle City Council;
State government, state assembly;
Even local business alliances, charity organizations, and trade unions in various industries have all spoken highly of Zhu Ke's participation in Seattle's investment.
【Conscience entrepreneur】
This is Zhu Ke's new title after the titles such as "cunning guy", "scumbag", "genius director", "TV Little Emperor", and "Venture King".
Besides, I still don’t accept the title of rebuttal!
If someone raises a different opinion, or refutes this title, from the Seattle government to the 4 million people in Seattle, you can spit you to death with saliva! ! !
The investment in the construction of a science and technology park is undoubtedly a project with slow results, a long cycle, and difficult to pay back. It is even difficult for Zhu Ke to recover this investment within 10 years, but... it can greatly enrich Zhu Ke’s Industry, the background of powerful Zhuke, makes those cunning people who want to swallow Zhuke's assets dare not catch their mouths.
