Vol 6 Chapter 547: Refuse

"Mr. Liu,"

Hearing the call, Liu Jizhong looked at the caller in a little astonishment, and found that Jin Ling also raised his hand at this time.

Just now I started, and it turned out to be like this, now I started, too?

Although looking at the expressions of Feng Yiping and Jin Ling, it didn't seem to mean that someone was coming again, he looked back, and no one came.

Also, what are you thinking about, who to meet with, and having them two is not enough?

Why did you interrupt me? "President Kim, who are you?"

"Mr. Liu, we can't help with you," Jin Ling answered almost when he asked.

"Huh?" Liu Jizhong was anxious, "You still don't know what's going on..."

"Of course I know, I think many of us know better," Jin Ling said.

She turned her head to Feng Yiping, "We have all heard since the beginning of last year that Goldman Sachs will invest at least US$100 million in Liu's airline."

This was in front of Liu Jizhong, she said so.

In fact, it's more than just hearing it. It's just being exaggerated. The news can be heard on TV, newspapers, magazines... and even on local radio.

At the same time, something like this must be added, "Because of the outstanding performance of Dongcheng Airlines, more and more top overseas investment institutions are showing strong interest in Dongcheng Airlines..."

But even though Jin Ling said it euphemistically, thinking about the high-profile Liu and Dongcheng, Feng Yiping can still make up for what happened.

He thought that if the investment really landed, maybe this President Liu would go to the Great Hall of the People to hold a press conference.

But this is not incomprehensible, because such a thing is indeed a good thing that can take the opportunity to publicize it.

It's just that sometimes, when there is only a little eyebrow, it is too overblown, which is actually not a good thing, because it will give people an unreliable feeling.

Liu Jizhong and Shen Xue were embarrassed when they heard Jin Ling’s plain narrative, because in the eyes of these two, especially Feng Yiping, they were definitely fighting for the little things of Zhima, and they also The sesame seeds were blown into the sky.

Fortunately, Feng Yiping had no other reaction. He just said, "Oh, this is a good thing,"

After hearing this, even Liu Jizhong and Shen Xue felt that Feng Yiping was really as gentle and generous as those described in those reports.

I was a bit too narrow and extreme at first.

Seeing Feng Yiping said this, Jin Ling didn't say anything else, but just motioned to Liu Jizhong to let him speak for himself.

"Since the launch last year, we have been in contact with Goldman Sachs on the strategic investment in Dongcheng Airlines," said Liu Jizhong.

He would only say this in front of Feng Yiping, who is very familiar with Wall Street and has frequent contacts with the top Wall Street.

At other times, he would say, "Goldman Sachs took the initiative to approach us several times," because Goldman Sachs had heard that Dongcheng Airlines "is the most highly rated airline in the world for several years."

And I will also emphasize that I actually don't want to accept foreign investment, because my Dongcheng Airlines has performed very well in all aspects and has abundant funds, so there is no need to accept investment.

But if you say so in front of Feng Yiping, that is, when the cowhide is already full of air, you use a blower to blow it in, and it may explode within minutes.

"By the end of the third quarter of last year, we have basically reached an agreement that Goldman Sachs will value Dongcheng Airlines at 600 million U.S. dollars, but they hope to use 100 million U.S. dollars to buy shares, accounting for 20% of the shares."

This number is obviously wrong, but Feng Yiping didn't ask why. He wanted to come to Goldman Sachs to ask for this, and Dongcheng could agree, there must be a reason.

He nodded again.

"But because foreign capital enters the aviation industry, it must be approved by many departments. Since then, we have been busy running for approval in the capital."

"By the end of June, we finally finished all the formalities,"

That is, it took them at least a year to go through all the approval procedures.

You know, it only took less than half a year for their company to be established at the beginning. The reason for this is because Liu Jizhong at that time was supported by the local government. Later, because of his behavior, he almost lost. All good feelings are gone.

Some people don't say help, they may still be embarrassed deliberately.

Of course, when talking about this to other people, Liu Jizhong said in another way, "I ran through all the procedures in two months." "The leader of a certain department is very supportive of our development. Let him The secretary took me through several departments."

It should be said that whether it is now or in the future, it is indispensable to package yourself as a person who enjoys the treatment of the protagonist in some later online novels.

"If this is the case, it will be a little troublesome now," Feng Yiping said actively, "Oh, don't get excited, I mean, it is estimated that Goldman Sachs will suspend this investment at this time."

Liu Jizhong suddenly seemed to meet his soulmate, "Mr. Feng, what you said is too right. That's what Goldman Sachs told us. Because of the subprime mortgage, they are shrinking all their investments, including the $100 million in Dongcheng Airlines. ,"

"But Mr. Feng, because of the sharp increase in oil prices, Dongcheng now really needs this investment,"

It was really needed, otherwise, Liu Jizhong would never ask Feng Yiping for help.

For him, this is roughly equivalent to requesting to easily take away the heart of the goddess he couldn’t chase after, and then to help her like an abandoned person, and when he asked for help this time, he also brought his present The cherished goddess, ready to serve with both hands at any time...

Their current situation is really very, very bad.

Let's put it this way, Liu Jizhong, an upstart in aviation, should now be called Liu Jizhong.

After these two years of "successful" development, Dongcheng Airlines has finally developed to the point where it cannot even guarantee the salary of its pilots.

Other money owed to the aircraft leasing company, money owed to the aviation fuel company, money owed to the airport, money owed to the Civil Aviation Administration... That is not news.

As for the money that Dongcheng Airlines embezzled from companies including restaurants, real estate, tourism, etc., it is all family members. Can it be called owed?

Therefore, the real estate companies that were already operating with high debt are now in danger and are essentially shut down.

The travel company subsidized the airline because of its own losses, and now it has almost been hollowed out by the airline and lost its hematopoietic function.

The restaurants that used to be booming are not as good as they used to be because of the competition from more and more peers.

The key is that in front of Dongcheng's current large plate, the cash flow generated by the restaurant every day is really a drop in the bucket. Think about how much it costs for an airplane to fly from the provincial capital to Yangcheng.

And Liu Jizhong has always been good face. For some routes, for example, sometimes, the flight from the provincial capital to Yangcheng only has two or three people-less than the crew, so he insisted on flying...

For Liu Jizhong, who is often said to be supported by this leader and that bank, the $100 million from Goldman Sachs is equivalent to the last and only life-saving straw.

In fact, for the big hole that the entire group currently faces ~www.wuxiaspot.com~, it only gets 100 million U.S. dollars, which is just barely able to maintain the airline.

"The fundamentals of our airlines are still very good. The average attendance rate is still over 95%. With all the airlines facing huge losses, in the past July, our overall profit exceeded 10 million."

Of course, this is a lie. The reason why he dared to say these lies is because he is not the core personnel of the airline and it is impossible to know the specific operating conditions of Dongcheng Airlines.

As for the specific operating situation of Dongcheng Airlines, because he has been talking about it all the time, outsiders should not have thought of it. Now they have arrived, the pilots must carry the boxes and hand them to the aviation oil company. Add oil to the point.

"I came to the door brazenly, hoping that Mr. Feng, you can help me and call the CEO of Goldman Sachs. In any case, investing in Dongcheng Airlines is definitely a good deal."

"I, and Dongcheng Group, will always remember Mr. Feng for your help,"

Jin Ling did not speak.

Feng Yiping looked at Liu Jizhong, "Mr. Liu, in fact, you should know that even if I make this call, I can't provide any help, because an outsider cannot influence Goldman Sachs' investment decisions."

"What's more, they are really hard to protect themselves now, and they are trying to collect every dollar they can collect..."

"But relative to the scale of Goldman Sachs, really speaking, more than 100 million US dollars, 100 million US dollars less, the impact is not great, right?" Shen Xue interjected.

Feng Yiping shook his head, "This period is very big."

"But if Mr. Feng can provide us with a guarantee, even if it is a verbal guarantee, then Goldman Sachs will definitely implement the investment, right," Liu Jizhong said.

"Sorry, we can't help such a thing," Feng Yiping shook his head flatly.
