Chapter 864

From his heart, Li Feng is really satisfied with the acquisition and merger of Northrop Grumman. Although the cost is a little high, after all, cash alone is more than $13 billion. You know, today's market value of Northrop Grumman is less than $20 billion.

Yes, although it is claimed to be the third pole of the United States after Boeing and Loma, the market value is less than 20 billion, which makes Li Feng ring the news seen on the Internet in his previous life, saying that penguin has a market value of $400 billion or $500 billion and can buy 4 or 5 Loma companies and 2 or 3 Boeing.

Well, if you look at the stock market only, that's really the case, but as long as people understand it, that's not the case.

Next, after the merger of the two companies, the first is that the two companies need to be temporarily delisted, and then re integrated and re listed. Yes, the new company still needs to be listed, which is the premise of allowing the merger. No matter those behind the scenes shareholders or the government, the company is not allowed to be privatized.

In fact, both Loma and Boeing, including the original Raytheon, Northrop Grumman and other companies, have government controlled forces, including various state funds. However, their shares are relatively small, less than 10%. This is an alternative "state-owned enterprise" with American characteristics.

The new company after the merger is expected to be a new company within the top 300 of the world's top 500, with a total of more than 120000 employees, which is even worse than 190000 in Loma. From 1997 to 1998, there were nearly 190000 employees in Loma, but the personnel of later generations kept decreasing.

In fact, it can also be imagined that with the continuous development of science and technology and the concentration of high-tech talents in the future, many posts have been released, resulting in the reduction of employees of those military giants of Meidi in the future.

……

In fact, the peak of employees of Military Giants was around 2000. Later, they will face a large number of layoffs every year. It seems that around 2000, Loma company had more than 200000 employees, which is really crazy.

In the past, Northrop Grumman also had more than 120000 employees at its peak around 2000, including Raytheon, and nearly 100000 employees at its peak. Now, Li Feng knows that before the merger, the number of employees of the two companies was basically the same, both around 60000.

"That's it. The time is almost up. Let's all go down."

Before signing the contract, Li Feng got together and chatted for a while. Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Feng smiled and said to the people in the room.

"OK, that's true. People should be almost there." Rumsfeld also replied with a smile.

"John, I heard you called a lot of big stars in Hollywood. Who are they?" Kenny was joking about Li Feng with a special smile.

“…”

"Ha ha..."

Kenny's look of not being beaten was a man who knew what it meant. When he saw Li Feng's speechless expression, everyone present couldn't help laughing.

……

Today's reception is definitely a super reception for the US emperor. There are leaders from the political and business circles, from the Senate of the two sessions of the California government to state government officials, to the generals and senators of both military and political sides in Washington, and even representatives of the White House.

As for the business tycoons, they gathered together, from the helm and behind the scenes shareholder families of major military enterprises to Li Feng's Century Series companies, from business tycoons in California to business tycoons all over the United States. Today's reception has everything in Chinese style.

As for today's Hollywood stars, they are just for fun.

"Little John, you finally appeared!"

When Li Feng and his party left the elevator and entered the hall, Li Feng saw old Baron, the helmsman of the Hilton family, together with William Randolph Hearst, the old man of the Hearst family, and the younger generation of the two families, and old Baron directly greeted Li Feng.

"Barron, William, welcome to our hotel. Have a good time!" Li Feng also walked forward with a smile, hugged them and said hello.

Li Feng showed great respect for the two old people, but old Barron stopped talking. After all, the Hilton sisters were taken down by themselves. If you really want to say, you can be regarded as someone else's grandchildren.

As for old Hearst, when Li Feng first started, he was the first to get acquainted with him and helped him a lot. Now, on holidays, sometimes Li Feng goes to Hearst ranch to live a pastoral life.

At the same time, Li Feng also greeted the younger generation of the two families, including the parents of the Hilton sisters and the three generations of Hearst who are now in power of the Hearst family.

……

After chatting with the two companies, the people who came together began to spread out. For example, ram and others went to the management of Northrop Grumman and the management of Blackwater Raytheon to discuss the next signing ceremony.

The leaders of the Rockefeller and Roosevelt families also went to the reception to meet old friends and leaders in politics and business. Similarly, Li Feng was not free here. The leaders of all sides of his century series took the lead to say hello and congratulate.

"Boss, Congratulations!"

"Barry, you're welcome!"

"Congratulations, John!"

"Adam, Alan, don't be so polite!"

“…”

Li Feng is busy here. Most of the people in the venue are also staring at Li Feng and his party. Think about it, the leaders of Li Feng's major companies gathered around them to congratulate them. Many people secretly think that although they have long known that St. John Lee, the new wealth legend of America, has amazing strength, it is still shocking to show it in front of them.

The Northrop Raytheon company, which is about to be merged, will not be mentioned. It is a military giant that is no inferior to Loma, and its influence and strength will not be mentioned.

……

Its skyline real estate company is now known as the largest real estate company in California. It has not only gone out of California and expanded in the United States, but also continued to develop in Europe and Asia.

In addition to the real estate projects all over the world, the 5-star skyline hotels that appear in the top 10 cities in the United States and even in the prosperous cities around the world, and the skyline resort hotels that appear in the most famous resorts and regions in the world have become the symbols of skyline real estate group.

It is said that even the Waldorf Hotel originally belonging to the Hilton Group has become a brand of the hotel group under the horizon real estate company. Today, the Tianji hotel group is more and more like an international luxury hotel group.

In addition to real estate hotels and military industry, there are media, sports and culture groups, investment companies, law firms, industrial groups, energy companies and now known as the largest luxury group in the United States.

Looking at these companies, which is not the top or even the leader in the industry, these people can only feel in their hearts that St. John Lee is worthy of being a miracle of modern business.

What's more terrible is that the guy who created such a big audience has just turned 18 and has only been on the road for more than 2 years, which can only be described as a miracle.

……

Li Feng's own strength as well as his interpersonal relationships and influence. Looking at the leaders of all parties present at the reception today, there is no doubt that today's St. John Lee is already standing among the highest ranks of mankind.
