Chapter 606 Candidates for tour guides
The journey of more than 7,000 kilometers took less than eight hours at the steady speed of the Gulfstream G650. The team members who set off half a day earlier had already gone to the hotel to wait.
"Boss, the car is ready."
Less than five minutes after the plane stopped, Kong Xinci, the deputy director of the President's Office who was in touch with the bodyguard team, came to the big boss to report.
"Let's go."
Putting down the newspaper in his hand, Xu Renshan said to his sister-in-law next to him.
Being in a foreign country, he must have paid more attention to the safety of his own home. A team of bodyguards who arrived in advance checked the safety of the vehicle first, and the hotel where he stayed has also been checked.
No one knows what traps are being designed by some dark enemies.
Two Audi police cars in the front cleared the way, followed by six black Audi A6s, four Rolls-Royce extended versions in the middle, and six black Audi A6s in the back. The Swiss SE company made a grand arrangement.
Even in Switzerland, where Audi cars are not expensive, the size of such a fleet is not small.
Although the market value of SE company is only 300 million euros, it can be regarded as a charging pile company second only to the industry giant ABB in Switzerland, and its reception specifications must not be bad.
“. For this acquisition, the new energy company will pay a premium of 15% in the future, and the purchase price will reach 340 million euros. However.”
In the conference room of the Baerlak Hotel in Zurich, which has been reserved, Xu Renshan and others listened to the report of Chen Jinfeng, CEO of Future New Energy Company.
Basically, it has been negotiated. Xu Renshan came here to inspect the operation of SE Company and determine the final purchase amount.
"Do you have any other questions?"
Noticing the hesitation on Mr. Chen's face, Xu Renshan asked casually.
"It is rumored that ABB also intends to acquire SE Company, so as to divest the charging pile business and establish a separate subsidiary."
Speaking of this temporary news, Chen Jinfeng was afraid that there might be other variables.
Being in a foreign country, their news channels are a bit weak, and ABB, as a giant company in Switzerland, can easily intercept them.
If this trip fails and the chairman and his party travel nearly 10,000 kilometers in vain, he, the CEO, will be too dereliction of duty.
"and many more."
Hearing the news, Xu Renshan picked up his temporary foreign mobile phone and dialed the number of Jenny Xia, deputy general manager of SS Fund: "Jennie, is ABB Group interested in acquiring a local SE company in Switzerland?"
He remembered that among the several giant shares held by SS Fund in Europe, ABB Group has 1.5 shares. It is not difficult to inquire about some information.
"Mr. Xu, please wait a moment."
Received a call from the big boss, Jenny Shea, who was having breakfast, motioned for the assistant to bring over the laptop, from which she found ABB's note file and checked the latest notice.
"Yes, sir, do you need me to make an appointment with Joseph M. Hogan, CEO of ABB?"
Speaking fairly fluent Chinese, Jenny Shea asked.
The other party would not call her for no reason. With her years of experience as a professional manager, she immediately thought of the best solution.
"Okay, it's eight o'clock in the morning in Zurich, you can help me make an afternoon tea, the place is at the Barlak Hotel."
After looking at Chopin who had adjusted the time, Xu Renshan set a time to meet.
"no problem."
After hanging up the phone, Jenny Shea immediately called Joseph M. Hogan, CEO of ABB, and said that her boss wanted to treat him to an afternoon tea at the BaurauLac Hotel in Zurich.
Hearing that it was the invitation from the big boss behind the SS Fund, Joseph M. Hogan in Geneva responded with all his heart, and immediately pushed back other trips and rushed back to Zurich.
In China, the SS Fund is not well-known, but in Europe, the SS Fund, which owns the shares of many giants, is the top capital familiar to the top figures in the business world.
"I will solve the problem of ABB."
Handing the mobile phone to the female assistant, Xu Renshan waved to Mr. Chen.
"OK."
Seeing the big boss casually dating the CEO of ABB, who has a market value of tens of billions of dollars, Chen Jinfeng immediately became more confident.
Starting a business with a big boss is really a silky enjoyment.
The rest of the shareholders at the scene also had a new understanding of the energy of this young rich man, and they looked at each other in secret, inevitably a little shocked.
Randomly invited the president of a Fortune 500 company with a market value of tens of billions of dollars to drink afternoon tea. There are not many such energy in China.
Feng Yifan, who knew someone's plan, had even more interest in his eyes.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, Xu Renshan saw a middle-aged man with yellow hair in the empty garden of the hotel, with a rather European style.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Joseph Hogan."
Under the sun umbrella specially arranged by the hotel, Xu Renshan shook hands with the other party.
Europeans are all about romance, and it is more harmonious to discuss business in such an environment.
Besides, Kong Xinci, who is proficient in multiple languages, translated in fluent English. The other party was from North America, so they naturally communicated in English.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Xu."
The 55-year-old Joseph M. Hogan, the big boss behind the SS Fund, greeted him very politely.
"The scenery in Zurich is nice."
After some false politeness, Xu Renshan gestured to the coffee in his hand, and talked about the purpose of inviting the other party to have afternoon tea: "I have a new energy company in China, and I am planning to acquire an SE company in Zurich. I don't know if ABB Group can Do you hold your hand high?"
"this."
Unexpectedly, the other party invited me to come here, and it turned out to be for this charging pile company. Joseph M. Hogan couldn't help hesitating.
In the past two years, new energy vehicles have developed rapidly, and charging piles are naturally a popular industry. ABB plans to focus on developing this field. Acquiring other peers to establish subsidiaries is a major strategy for the company.
"The future new energy company has the charging pile contracts for all the refueling stations of the two oil companies in China, and the contract rate of private refueling stations has reached more than 80%, which will cover all of them in the next two years. In related aspects, the future new energy company can cooperate with ABB Huaxia cooperation."
Seeing the other party's hesitation, Xu Renshan also expressed his sincerity.
Acquisition of a company worth 300 million euros with ABB’s technical reserves is dispensable to the accumulation of technology, but it has completely different meanings to the newly established future new energy companies in China.
As long as this SE company can be acquired, the technical reserves of new energy companies in the domestic charging pile industry will be at the leading level in the future, catching up with companies such as BYD.
Moreover, in order to spread the charging piles to more than 100,000 refueling stations across the country in the next ten years, Future Company alone is still unable to do it. It is necessary to find a partner.
As an outsider of ABB, you don’t have to worry about being seized by other domestic counterparts when you cooperate.
"Can."
Hearing the other party's conditions, JosephM.Hogan narrowed his eyes and agreed immediately.
As the largest emerging market in the world, the Huaxia branch is the focus of ABB's performance growth. This year's sales revenue in China is expected to exceed US$5 billion.
It would definitely be a surprise to join the huge charging pile market.
As for the unspoken rules of some industries in Europe and the United States that block China's technology, Joseph M. Hogan, who works in a foreign country, doesn't care at all.
Others have that kind of heart, even if they have a relationship with the big boss behind the SS Fund.
"Pleasant cooperation."
Facing the mild-mannered middle-aged president, Xu Renshan stretched out his hand to invite him to have tea.
"Pleasant cooperation."
Picking up a piece of pastry, JosephM.Hogan has a sincere smile on his face.
"Boss, the hotel has arranged several tour guides, would you like to choose one to accompany you?"
After the ABB CEO left, Kong Xinci came to report to the boss.
In today's itinerary, the boss is free for the rest of the time, so he definitely needs to go out for a stroll.
Although she is also an international student, she is not familiar with the scenic spots in Switzerland, and the hotel arrangement is still very good.
