Recently, Li zeju and Huang's executives frequently went to the United States and Canada. On the one hand, it's about port investment. On the other hand, it's about acquiring telecom companies in Canada and the United States.
This was discussed with Feng Yu before. Ralph from the U.S. can handle it, but Li zeju from Canada has more advantages. After all, he is Canadian now.
On the British side, there are also frequent exchanges of executives from Changshi. Even last month, Li Chaoren went there in person.
This month, good news came that the business of British power grid has been settled. Yesterday, Li Chaoren signed a contract in person, with a total price of about 9 billion US dollars, controlling one third of the power supply in the UK. Although the profit is not high, but the income is very stable, just need to invest another sum of money to carry out grid transformation.
And the negotiations on British water companies have also made a breakthrough. Now the final price is lower. After the acquisition, nearly 8% of Britain's water supply is their business.
And that's not all. Li Chaoren thinks that the 8% share is too low and the competitiveness is weak. So at the same time, we are negotiating with another company that supplies domestic water and sewage treatment, and we plan to acquire it at the same time, and then merge it, so the share will increase a lot, especially the voice of the industry.
This investment is also expected to be close to $3 billion.
If it is Changshi company, the liquidity is not enough at all, but now with Feng Yu's investment, there is no need to worry about it. What's more, Li Chaoren and other shareholders have also injected capital into it, and now Changji is far stronger than the same period of the previous life.
Li Chaoren is also very prestigious in the UK, and has a lot of ties with many rich people in the UK.
This time, Li Chaoren was also received by the British woman Wang and talked about many of his ideas about the British market. At the same time, the UK wants to attract foreign investment, use foreign investment to stimulate the local economy and promote the economic development of the UK.
Both of them are happy.
Li Chaoren has long planned to march into the British market in a large scale, which is also implicitly supported by the Chinese side. To maintain closer cooperation with the UK can to some extent divide the relationship between the UK and the US.
After the economic crisis, the U.S. is struggling to revive its economy. Chinese enterprises have invested a lot to help the U.S. economy recover. In fact, it is to make money. The U.S. market is still the most active market in the world.
The UK is also at the top of the list in Europe. They want to maintain their own economic development and keep their incomes from falling too much. They also want to find countries that are not seriously hit this time to invest.
During this period, China not only bought the national debt of the United States, but also the national debt of many countries in the United Kingdom and Europe. This is equivalent to a big money lender, playing the role of a bank. Other people work for Huaxia Bank to earn money.
No matter how much you earn, I have the lowest risk and the most stable income. In particular, Huaxia specially emphasized the exchange rate change this time, which is subject to Huaxia's decision. At that time, you will be asked to repay the pound, the dollar, the euro or the RMB. Huaxia will choose.
I don't want to buy your national debt. I want to buy it on this condition. At the same time, we also need to relax our corporate investment policy, give some preferential treatment, and allow RMB settlement for some projects.
At one time, some advantage enterprises in China wanted to go out, but it was very difficult. Now that the conditions have been reduced and the strength of the enterprise itself has been improved, it is much easier to go out.
Feng Yu told Li Chaoren not only to invest in electricity and water, but also other aspects. Li Chaoren also thinks so. He is talking about gas, transportation, communication and other aspects.
In his previous life, Li Chaoren didn't have so much liquidity. Many acquisitions were much slower. But in this world, Li Chaoren has more money, and Feng Yu, a powerful ally, has negotiated many acquisitions, almost at the same time.
Now many executives from Changshi and Hehuang often go back and forth to the UK and Xiangjiang. Every day, the negotiation progress will change.
Britain's gas network is good all over the world. There is one thing to prove it. At the beginning, London was the capital of fog, which was known all over the world.
Later, many people thought that Britain had managed it well and had better air purification technology. But the most fundamental reason is that the UK found a huge natural gas field, and then took the lead in building the urban natural gas supply pipeline, so that the UK greatly reduced the combustion of coal and charcoal, and reduced a large number of exhaust emissions, which is the fundamental reason.
If the UK's governance technology is still good, but at that time the UK's air governance technology, in fact, is very slag.
Water, electricity, gas, transportation and communication are all what Li Chaoren's enterprises are good at. Although Li Chaoren also invests in a variety of businesses, it is also a diversified investment, but these five kinds are the foundation of Li Chaoren's enterprise.
They should strengthen their advantageous business, make use of their rich management experience in this field, and ensure that the business continues to expand, profits continue to increase, and costs can continue to reduce.
In addition, the UK is also the market he specially selected. Europe's financial, trade and Information Center has strong regional advantages and good market radiation.In particular, the UK's manufacturing industry is very strong, and its cutting-edge R & D capacity is world-class. This has little to do with Li Superman, but has a lot to do with China.
Although China is the world's top manufacturing country and a member of the BRICs, it is considered to be the economic center of the world 50 years later, but there are still many weak areas.
Some are you spend money, may not be able to surpass in a short time, because the gap is too big. It's very likely that you spent a lot of money, but what you've developed is the technology of others a few years ago.
It's better to spend money directly to buy some more advanced technologies, and then research and develop them to reach the forefront of the world.
There is an industry that can be represented, that is, the automobile industry. At first, it was decades behind the developed countries in the world, and then through continuous purchase, introduction of foreign advanced technology, and even allowing the other side to invest in technology, which led to the development of the industry, and slowly catch up with the pace of the world's peers.
Today, although there are still some gaps from the first place in the world, but this gap is not completely out of the hope of catching up. Even Chinese car enterprises have developed from introduction to going out.
Just to make Feng Yu unhappy, it will be so difficult to acquire british telecom companies. This is the industry that is most beneficial to Fengyu and can form complementary advantages with other industries of Fengyu.
Li Chaoren's acquisition of British railway is more concerned for China's political axe. Once it is successful, the high-speed railway can be introduced to the UK, so that the German and French competitors can be eliminated.
In the future, many netizens around the world will say that Li Chaoren controls the British people's livelihood, but perhaps many people will not notice that there is Feng Yu behind it.
