758. Raising funds
"So, how much money do I have left?"
Li Yifan asked again. He is a little short of money now. Although the Li Group in China has amazing profits, he is still useful for all the money. If it is transferred, it is very troublesome and not easy to use. In the next action, he will use a lot of funds, so he must find compensation for this money from other places.
It turned out that when he came back from Indonesia, he made 700 million to 800 million US dollars. The money was too easy to make. He originally wanted to use this money to acquire shares of D-Private and Rio Tinto. Who would have thought that these Australians were too tough and were not so easy to do business with them, so the money was left.
Since it is not available for the time being, it is better to use it in Japan. Anyway, he will make big moves in Japan. If the Japanese money is not profitable, he will make a lot of money.
"It only cost more than 400 million Australian dollars to deal with those two Australian companies. After the exchange, there are still about 550 million US dollars left in your assets. Why do you have any ideas?"
"Well, don't touch this money. I will have more use in the next few days. Hehe, I will raise some funds next. At that time, I will raise a total of one billion US dollars. We will have a big ticket in Japan."
Li Yifan said with a sneer, and when Li Annie heard this, she was stunned. This was good news.
You should know that she has now completely taken over the underground business of the Li family. Not to mention every year, the money she earns every day is calculated in millions of dollars.
Now she has a lot of money in her hands, waiting to be whitewashed. The best way to whitewash this money is undoubtedly the most appropriate way to take the financial market.
Behind her is a big backer like the Singapore government. Singapore is also one of the financial centers in Asia and can also occupy a 1% share in the world's financial market. This plate looks quite large, and the annual working capital is calculated by more than 10 billion yuan, but it is much smaller than the Japanese market.
You should know that Japan's financial market share in the international financial market accounts for between 13 and 14%. The funds flowing in this market every year must be calculated in hundreds of billions of dollars. This plate is much larger than their Singapore plates. If she can operate it here and quickly clean up the black gold in her hands, on the one hand, she can show her strength in Southeast Asia, and on the other hand, she can make a lot of money with it, so she was also a little moved.
However, she had never operated the capital market with Li Yifan before, so she didn't have that much confidence in Li Yifan. If it were Heidi, she would have said it would have been mentioned at this time and she would have participated.
Originally, Li Yifan wanted to borrow some money from Annie, but now she saw that she was a little hesitant, so she couldn't say much.
After all, Annie Lee is not Heidi. Although she has a lot of chips in her hand, these chips are all put by others and given to her to help clean up. She dare not move the money because if one is lost, she will be in trouble by then. If she smashes her golden signboard, it is still the same thing. Maybe she may even lose her life, so she doesn't want to take risks, which is understandable.
It's nothing. It's hard to borrow money from her, so I borrow it from Heidi.
"By the way, how are you doing when you contact the designers on D-private?"
"Well, Zhou Yuanchao has already contacted him. He is very interested in our proposal. After all, over the years, the operating conditions of D-private have not been particularly good. Moreover, these Australians have a high opinion of themselves, but they are still very conservative. They only plan to make trouble in their own domestic market and have no ambitions at all. If they can manage their local market well, they will lose their city and land in their local market, and their market share has been declining year by year under the competition of Japanese automobiles. Moreover, they have changed hands several times in just a few years, which makes him not optimistic.
To develop D private, not to mention that the ION, which is now negotiating with the British, is an Australian local enterprise, and its operating conditions are also very average, so he is pessimistic about the prospects of D private. After all, he is a research and development background, and if the superiors don’t invest money, he will not be able to continue researching. So he is very interested in my proposal, but on the other hand, he really wants to meet you as an investor and your basic equipment in person. Only when he sees these will he consider the issue of changing jobs. After all, it is impossible for others to believe us just by relying on our empty words."
Listening to Li Annie's introduction, Li Yifan nodded. In just over twenty days, Li Annie got everything done, contacted Zhou Yuanchao, and even moved him, which showed that Li Annie was very efficient and Li Yifan was very satisfied with her.
As for Zhou Yuanchao, he has vision. The current pattern of the international automobile parts industry is to go against the current and go back if you don’t advance.
Nowadays, several companies specializing in transmission research and development are increasing their investment and preparing their own new products. There is no need to say that Aisin Seiko has been backed by Toyota, and their business is in full swing.
Although ZF in Germany has been taking the high-quality route, it is because they are high-end and they eat meat and drink soup, and they are so fat that they are covered in oil.
Only their company is in charge of Australia and can only do business with Ford and Chrysler. The market prospects are not optimistic now. The most important thing is that if the superiors don’t give money, they will not be able to do the next step of research and development.
Looking at the current development trend of automatic transmission of cars, Germans are stepping up their efforts to develop dual-clutch transmissions, and it is said that they are already famous. I heard that Volkswagen's new generation transmission will be unveiled at the auto show next year.
Let’s look at Japan again. Here we are catching up on the development of a six-speed automatic transmission. It is even said that they have the corresponding molding equipment and will be able to be put into the market soon. Moreover, Aixin has begun to get involved in the eight-speed automatic transmission.
Nissan is also unpredictable, and it is specialized in supplying CVT transmissions. I heard that it has made considerable breakthroughs.
Looking at all large-scale automobile or transmission manufacturing companies, people are increasing their efforts to study the new generation of automobile transmissions, but looking at themselves, it is better to stay on the original 4at and even allocate some money, they still insist on taking the ordinary path.
It's also possible to study 6ats, but they just need to study what kind of 6ats to cooperate with rear-wheel drive. Now the atmosphere of the world's automobile industry has gradually become clear. In the future, it will be the world of small-displacement cars. But they are still very fucking to take the large-displacement rear-wheel drive route. Isn't this the brain kicked by a donkey?
You want to be innovative, but you can't mess around like this?
So it’s no wonder that Zhou Yuanchao had a second heart this time, but it’s better that he had a second heart like this. The more he had a second heart, the more beneficial it would be to him.
"Okay, when will he come and have a look?"
Li Yifan asked.
"Well, it's not confirmed yet. Recently, they are preparing to work with the six-speed transmission of the rear-drive car, so they will be very busy. However, in early May, he should have two weeks off. He plans to take that opportunity to return home to see it. After all, you know that he is working in Australia now, and there is no Spring Festival there."
Annie Li said to Li Yifan, and Li Yifan also nodded, it was just right.
If Zhou Yuanchao had to come at this time, he would not be able to come here. You should know that he had just taken over the Bincheng Special Metal Smelting Company, which had not yet been opened, not to mention the machinery that processed the transmission, which is still in Japan.
Nobuhiko Kobayashi is organizing the delivery, but when these goods arrive in China, they are looking for factories or something. It is estimated that they will not be able to settle down in just a few months.
It was just right for him to come here in May, and he had time to go back and get some orders.
If he comes over, he will have basically prepared the same materials and production equipment, and there are only a few talents who specialize in design. I believe that when he sees these, he should have ideas.
If you want to attract talents, you must give them the corresponding equipment, otherwise no one is a fool just by drawing a big pie.
After talking to Annie Lee, Li Yifan asked her to rest. Tonight he had another important person to meet, and this person was Heidi.
This time he planned to have a big vote in Japan. How could such a good thing be left behind Heidi? Besides, he and Tang Tian have always been in a spiritual relationship. He does not want to break the relationship between him and Tang Tian at the moment, but after all, he is a man, an energetic man, and Heidi is the woman who can blend in spirit and happiness.
It has been several months since the last meeting. During this period, Heidi has been running around the world. After taking over her family business, she is also very busy. During this period, the two can only meet by video phone. It is just the end of the year, and it is time to relieve the pain of lovesickness.
In the evening, Shanghai Di's plane landed at Tokyo's airport very on time, but this time she did not come by an ordinary plane, but by a private plane.
