Vol 4 Chapter 327: Helpful consultant
"It's him," Minister Ma said with a smile.
The ministers were also interested, "Oh, how big is the satellite?"
On such occasions, Vice Minister Ma is not easy to sell, and stretches out two fingers, "At least this number, 2 billion!"
"Dollar?" Some minister asked unsurely and unbelievably.
"Naturally it is US dollars, Prime Minister. I have already talked to him on the phone. According to him, this is a merger and acquisition they have planned for a long time. They originally planned to make a mandatory acquisition, but just yesterday, the target company had a big change. Now there is a basis for the agreement acquisition,"
"Listed company?" the Prime Minister asked.
"Yes, so Yiping also said that there are still certain risks in supervision,"
"This approval also takes time," several ministers beamed with joy. "If it is an agreement acquisition, then we can release such news now, right?"
This is an investment of at least 2 billion U.S. dollars, which is larger than the largest single investment by the United States in China so far. This is a matter of enthusiasm in the United States. I want to talk to us about the trade deficit, the WTO commitments, and the RMB exchange rate. When it came up, it was pretty impressive.
What does this prove? This proves that the economic ties between China and the United States are getting closer and closer, and the pattern of having you in you and you has taken shape.
This also echoes several of the five principles put forward by the Prime Minister at the Bankers Luncheon in New York yesterday. Development is the primary principle for resolving the imbalance in trade between the two countries.
"With regard to this merger, did they make precise preparations? Will it be because of some unconsidered factors that caused us to spend a lot of money, only to find that it was helpless to pay tuition?" the prime minister asked.
This is the difference. What he is thinking at this time is whether our company will suffer.
"I also asked about this. Yiping's original words were,'We already have a very comprehensive plan,'" Vice Minister Ma repeated.
"If it's another company, I might be really worried. After all, it's such a big investment. However, if even Yiping himself says so, then I think I can believe it."
"This can be seen from the rapid and successful development of his company in the United States, and from his company's last acquisition in the United States."
"When did they reach a financing agreement with ICBC?" the prime minister asked.
"I also checked this, at the beginning of this year," Vice Minister Ma said.
In their position, it is also necessary to consider what questions the leader will ask next.
"That means it was in preparation last year," the prime minister concluded.
"I think so," Vice Minister Ma said, "So I think this thing will definitely be done!"
"Okay," the Prime Minister stood up, "this is going out, this is really going out,"
"Since it's such a coincidence, then we should also provide him with help within our capacity. You see, let the business system of the embassy help them, or do you send an expert in there?"
Naturally, some experts were brought along on this visit, among which the economic and trade experts were the majority.
"Or, one in each place?" Vice Minister Ma proposed.
She also really wanted to hear exact news from Feng Yiping during the two days in Washington. Originally, she had talks with the US Department of Commerce and the Office of the Trade Representative Office this time. The large investment in the investment record can really help oneself gain some voice.
The point is that all the funds for this investment come from outside the United States, mainly from Chinese banks. There is no such thing as using Bank of America loans to buy American companies. This is really good.
"Yes, you are responsible for making arrangements,"
"Okay, I will do it now,"
"In addition, to those two, we used to be consultants for them, not as instructors," the prime minister reminded specially.
It seems that he also has a clear understanding of some people below who are always prone to misplace their positions in front of the company.
However, the Prime Minister’s accountability was so meticulous, which surprised many people present. It seems that the Prime Minister’s impression of Feng Yiping is really good, very good!
"Yes," Vice Minister Ma was also stunned, and immediately decided to send the highest level expert he brought this time.

"If the Netflix board is refreshed, we can also be more generous. There is still a lot of work to be done. Try to reach an agreement in advance. It is naturally the best." Feng Yiping hurried to the bathroom to wash his face and put on a clean shirt. , While still busy explaining Buchanan.
"Okay, I will tell Cummins,"
"In the opinion of the public relations firm, this merger is subject to approval risks, how big is it?"
The United States is such a contradictory country. On the one hand, he is clamoring about the trade deficit, on the other hand, he restricts exports; on the one hand, he advocates trade liberalization all over the world, on the other hand, he often talks about foreign investment in the United States. Four, this threat is the other threat.
Some investments will be vetoed by both houses of Congress, and some investments will be vetoed by the White House. Investment from China is particularly strict.
So the hurdle for approval is now the biggest hurdle.
"Because of the nature of Netflix, the PR company's preliminary conclusion is: quite optimistic!"
"It seems that the approval risk is smaller than that of Coin Star,"
Netflix is essentially a company that provides DVD rentals to the common people, so this seems to be optimistic indeed.
You must know that the largest DVD rental company in the United States, Blockbuster, is a British company.
Coin Star, at any rate, is a money business, which is directly related to finance. Such a comparison is indeed optimistic.
"That's good!" Feng Yiping straightened his tie, "you see?"
"Perfect!" Buchanan gave a thumbs up, "Huang's match is perfect, Feng You must be the most handsome tonight,"
"Thank you, I will try my best to be the youngest one,"
Next, I'm going to the United States. On such occasions, I can't dress sloppyly.
"Okay, remember to take everyone out for dinner," Feng Yiping bent over and stuffed a sandwich into his mouth. "I'm leaving. Call if you have any problems."
The Prime Minister’s scheduled arrival in the United States is at 7:30 in the evening, so naturally they must arrive early.
But as soon as the door was opened, two well-dressed middle-aged men were standing at the door. The first one was smiling, "Hello, Mr. Feng, this is Wang Weidong from the Economic and Commercial Department of the Embassy. Expert Zhu Chen,"
"Good morning, please come in," Feng Yiping quickly let them in, "Sorry, the place is a bit messy,"
He is a little confused about the situation, what is going on? Is it possible for a domestic one to approve a guy first?
At any rate, he knew that the Economic and Commercial Office of the embassy was also a dispatched agency of the Ministry of Commerce, and these two came all at once....
"We only see hot, hi, hello!" Wang Weidong greeted Buchanan, who was also a little confused about the situation, in English.
"President Feng, the leaders are very concerned about your big news this time. Entrusted by the prime minister, the minister sent the two of us over to see if we can help," Wang Weidong briefly introduced his intentions.
"Sent by the prime minister?" Feng Yiping was shocked, or did he come to help? "I'm so flattered. I didn't expect the Prime Minister and Minister to still care about this matter of mine. Thank you two, thank you, thank you, both of you, please sit down."
"President Feng, you are not a trivial matter," Wang Weidong said with a smile, "This is a major event in the history of Sino-US economic and trade."
"It happens to be at this time again," Expert Zhu's English is also very slippery.
When Minister Ma sent them, he made a special trip to relay the prime minister's entrustment. Expert Zhu was a little uncomfortable.
He is also considered a top domestic business expert. At such a moment, he was sent as a consultant to a private enterprise~www.wuxiaspot.com~ which also meant that he could not attend the evening dinner in the United States, and he was somewhat upset.
Hearing what he said, it seemed that he had deliberately pinched this opportunity, "This is really an accident," Feng Yiping explained even though he was a little unhappy.
"It should be a surprise," Wang Weidong, who works in the embassy, could say, "President Feng, are you going to the venue?"
"Yes, I'm really sorry about this. I'm sorry you two. Buchanan will introduce you to the specific situation. We really need two such experts. Thank you again, but I really have to go now."
"I have to go, I'll see you off," Wang Weidong stood up, is there something to tell himself?
"Buchanan, take care of Expert Zhu,"
"President Feng," Wang Weidong walked outside the door with him, "At such a time, things like this can be said to have political significance,"
Is this actually a political incident?
"Don't worry, Counselor Wang, we won't make jokes about things like this, we know the severity," I don't know his specific official position, but it must be right to call a counselor.
Feng Yiping estimated that even if the leader did not give an explanation, Wang Weidong and the others would definitely verify the truth of the incident.
"Hehe, I'm not a counselor, just call me Lao Wang, don't mind Mr. Feng, I am too,"
"I know, Chief Wang, you are kind, thank you! Sorry, I really have to go," he raised the phone in his hand, which would be shaking. It was Mr. Wu calling, "I'm reminding you,"
"Well, I won't delay you," Wang Weidong sent him to the elevator and gave him the button personally. "One more thing, if the two days can be confirmed, then it will be better."
"I hope so too, Chief Wang,"
It can be determined in these two days, and you can get multiple benefits in one fell swoop, why not do it? (To be continued.)
