Chapter 380: Acquisitions are actually very difficult
The two negotiations of Nortel Network have long come to an end, and after Xiao Qi and Citibank signed a mortgage agreement, 800 million US dollars were transferred to Xiao Qi's account.
It happened that Tang Mingxiang also returned from Lake Ontario at this time, so on the second day of the arrival of the loan, under the witness of the lawyer of Mario Law Firm, Tang Mingxiang, in the name of the chairman of Mingxiang Holdings, signed a purchase and transfer contract with Nortel Network, and the contract was established after 100 million US dollars was transferred to the account of Nortel Network.
Acquisitions are not as simple as they seem.
Mingxiang Holdings is a company registered in the Virgin Islands, first of all, it is not legally Chinese, and Tang Mingxiang also signed a commitment that it will never transfer the assets of Nortel Networks and Jishu to China, and only develop in the United States.
After completing the above two steps, coupled with the full support of Citibank and the strong desire of Nortel Networks, the relevant authorities in the United States approved the acquisition.
Otherwise, if it is replaced by any other Chinese company, then the reaction of the US courts and Congress is: No, go back!
Don't believe it, when Haier acquired Cathay Pacific back then, the U.S. Congress did just that, without any legal basis, and even the antitrust law was not used, so the application was rejected by feeling.
And when they arrived in Huaguo, they bought all the haode companies in Huaguo, but they demanded respect for the law, and they would make a big fuss if they didn't follow their will, which was extremely shameless!
It is precisely because Xiao Qi knows these inside stories that he deliberately set up two companies in the international financial free zone and use them to acquire foreign countries, especially countries with coastal laws such as Europe and the United States.
As for the use and transfer of patents, etc., teenagers naturally have their own set of strategies, and a large group of lawyers at Mario Law Firm are not supported for nothing. A large part of the purpose of their existence is to allow Xiao Qi to legally avoid all kinds of legal constraints.
Okay, let's not mention these unpleasant things.
From the moment the contract was established, the more than 80 engineers and employees became Tang Mingxiang's soldiers, and the full name was "Mingxiang Holding North America Laboratory".
In the suburbs for them leased two small five-story buildings. After being used as a place for office and experiments, the shelves of Mingxiang Holdings' North American laboratory were finally erected.
But this is only the beginning, if you want to continue to develop the WCDMA project, a large amount of money is absolutely indispensable, for which Xiao Qi left Tang Mingxiang 100 million US dollars, so that she can use it for the WCDMA department.
In addition, Xiao Qi also left 300 million US dollars in the United States as the cost of Qicai Investment for several supplier companies. For the time being, this aspect of the matter has been left to Mario Law Firm.
Mei Ji has always been bold, but when it comes to billions of yuan in trading, she still can't help but tremble, and resolutely does not want the shares of Mingxiang Holdings, claiming that her property must be earned by herself.
Speaking of the bright and touching girl's business, the group buying website she named "Chosegirl" has entered the stage of zuihou's strategic familiarization.
In addition to working hard to squeeze Xiao Qi in bed every day, the little beauty is a little beautiful. The most important thing to do was to lay lazily on the boy's chest after the clouds and rain dissipated. Listen to Xiao Qi tell her about the various points to note on group buying websites.
Combined with the plan book written by Xiao Qi for her, with haode teaching materials, and haode teachers, Tang Mingxiang has made rapid progress.
In the next seven or eight years, the advantages and disadvantages of the development of group buying websites have all been imprinted in her mind. Gradually, an approximate idea has been formed, and now the only thing left is to recruit people.
Regarding this point, Xiao Qi told his obedient little wife that if you want to succeed, you must avoid being emotional. Hire a professional broker whenever possible.
As for the management of the company, as long as you grasp the general direction and grasp the financial aspects, let your subordinates do the rest of the specific things, and most Yankees' attitude towards work is still trustworthy.
It's a bit of a pity that no matter how Xiao Qi contacted Little Taylor, the beautiful and pure girl never responded, and Scott didn't dare to reveal her whereabouts, at most she told Xiao Qi about her recent situation - the middle-aged uncle still remembered Xiao Qi's efforts to help his son get rid of his crimes.
It's her second single, and it's really out on sale.
It's called "Liar".
Originally, her first single "Tim McGraw" had a faint country vibe, which made people nostalgic but lazy and comfortable, which was very suitable for people who were a little tired to listen to.
But "Liar" is different, the tune is completely sad, but it is very bright, as if a girl is pouring out her sad love experience, Taylor's always high voice, but this time it is suppressed, and the clouds are light and light, and people want to cry.
People can't tell whether this is country music or pop songs, but without exception, everyone who hears it has no intention of thinking about their first love and thinking of that sweet and sad past.
Surprisingly, Taylor Jr.'s second single, which landed directly on the second place on Billboard, sold more than one million copies in a week, setting a record that no one could reach after entering the 21st century.
All right.
While the single was selling well, there were also countless American girls who scolded the negative man in the song in unison.
Listening to the accusations of the pair of flowery men, even the bright and moving girl was frowning and scolding, not knowing that she was scolding her husband.
Thanks to the fact that she still has to listen to Qiao Guoer's songs, the actress sister with a soft and greasy voice, but the love songs she sings are healing, just enough to mend the wounds torn by little Taylor.
Since little Taylor is still angry, Xiao Qi's coming to the United States is almost done, so he is ready to say goodbye to Tang Mingxiang.
Don't look at the bright and moving girl who is cheerful and generous, but when she heard that Xiao Qi was going back to China, she really lost her temper for a while, and in the words of several of her good friends, "You are so scared that we don't dare to come to eat Xiao Qi's cooking."
She wasn't just angry, she was almost squeezing the teenager even harder, on the bed, on the carpet, in the bathroom...... Almost every corner of the house has left traces of joy.
The beautiful girl was so desperate to welcome Xiao Qi, who never knew what was going on with kidney deficiency, until he got on the plane back to China, his waist almost couldn't stand up, and his kidneys were swollen and painful.
Mei Ji-san, is really a disaster!
The boy leaned back on the plane seat, sighed, and then smiled slightly: "However, I like her like this!" (To be continued......)
