Sitting in the office on the top floor of the "Xingtai International Foreign Trade Company" in Pudong New Area, Zhao Guoyang was carefully checking the information in his hand.
These days, he has been busy collecting intelligence on the "Hanbao Iron and Steel Company".
All kinds of data show that as early as two or three years ago, the company was on the verge of bankruptcy and was about to be unable to do it.
But what is incomprehensible is that it has managed to hold itself up to now.
And it looks like there's a chance it can continue.
This is not good news for Zhao Guoyang, who aims to acquire it.
Kim so-joo, on her part, just went to South Korea last week and went to inquire about the news for the sake of talking about business.
According to her, when she met with Li Xiaodong, the boss of "Hanbao Iron and Steel Company", she did not find anything unusual.
It seems that the other party is not in trouble with the broken capital chain, and everything seems to be normal.
However, in Zhao Guoyang's view, the calmer the waves, the more the storm may invade.
The reason why "Hanbao Iron and Steel Company" can support it now is that it is likely that there are some people who do not know the inside story.
Only by digging out this insider can he and "Xingtai International" have a chance to take it into their pockets.
After staring at the industrial version of the "Asahi Shimbun" in his hand for a long time, Zhao Guoyang was attracted by an inconspicuous piece of information.
In a small strip of information in the middle of the newspaper, the following news was published: "Incheon Steel" Tangjin No. 1 blast furnace officially started construction, and the relevant executives of "Hyundai Group" were present to congratulate them Looking at this unfinished news, Zhao Guoyang's eyes gradually lit up.
The Dangjin area is a well-known base for the steel industry in South Korea, and one of the top 10 steel companies in South Korea, including POSCO and Hanbo Steel, has factories here.
Among them, the Asan Bay Plant of the Eastern Steel Company of Hanbao Iron and Steel Company is the most famous.
Now that the construction of Tangjin No. 1 blast furnace has officially started, and the "Hyundai Group" has suddenly congratulated it, the doorway here is a little profound.
The most likely scenario is that the "Hyundai Group" has already promised the stormy "Hanbao Iron and Steel Company" something, and is ready to inject capital into it, so as to enter the Dangjin area.
This is also the reason why "Hanbao Iron and Steel Company" is still so calm when it is clear that the factory is already unable to make ends meet.
After carefully sorting out the ideas before and after in his mind, he felt that there should be nothing wrong, so Zhao Guoyang immediately hung up the phone to Jin Xiuzhu.
After Zhao Guoyang dialed the number, the phone was quickly connected.
"I'm Kim so-joo, where are you" On the other end of the phone, Kim so-joo's cold voice came, giving people a feeling that they were not in a good mood.
Because Zhao Guoyang was in a good mood, he smiled and teased: "Miss Xiuzhu, why is it like eating gunpowder early in the morning, has anyone provoked you?"
Hearing that it was Zhao Guoyang's voice, Jin Xiuzhu's tone immediately calmed down.
She smiled and asked, "Guoyang, why are you free to call me these days, aren't you busy with the vertical vibration hoist project?"
The reason why Kim so-joo knows about the vertical vibration hoist project of "SS Company" is also because several senior engineers of "Daewoo Heavy Industries Group" are assisting in the design of "SS Company".
Not long ago, Zhao Guoyang gave Zhao Siyan some advice, and the progress of the vertical vibration hoist project naturally accelerated a lot.
After the general production plan came out, Zhao Siyan sent an invitation letter to the "Daewoo Heavy Industries Group", inviting their engineers to come and work on the project together.
At present, "SS Company" is the largest shareholder of "Daewoo Heavy Industries Group".
Although Zhao Siyan does not have too many shares in the "SS Company", her status as the deputy general manager is definitely qualified to give orders to the technical department of the "Daewoo Heavy Industries Group".
Because they went to Monaco together last time, Kim so-joo and Zhao Si-yeon have a very good relationship. received her request for help, and this Miss Jin naturally helped with all her might.
It is reasonable to send the "Daewoo Heavy Industries Group".
At this time, after listening to Jin Xiuzhu's question, Zhao Guoyang said easily: "The vertical vibration hoist project, in general, there is no problem, and the following is the detailed design of each part." ” "With Xiuzhu, several senior engineers of your Daewoo Heavy Industries Group are on the side, and it shouldn't be a problem to take out samples within two or three months."
Listening to Zhao Guoyang's confident words, Jin Xiuzhu smiled and said yes.
After a few words of greeting, Zhao Guoyang told his intention to make the call.
He went straight to the point and said: "Xiuzhu, I called here to learn more about the situation of Hanbao Iron and Steel Company." ” Hearing this answer, Kim so-joo was at a loss.
She subconsciously said: "Guoyang, didn't I tell you about my meeting with Chairman Li Xiaodong of Hanbao Iron and Steel Company two days ago, why do you still have any details that you need to know?"
Zhao Guoyang said with a certain "um": "That's right, Xiuzhu, you guessed right, I just want to know about the situation when Chairman Li Xiaodong was talking to you at that time." ” "Especially when he was talking, did he reveal that there were already people willing to buy shares in their company, or inject capital into their company" When Jin Xiuzhu heard this, she was a little confused.
She recalled it seriously, and suddenly exclaimed: "By the way, Guoyang, I really remembered what you said."
At that time, when I met with Li Xiaodong, it seemed that he was called out by the secretary halfway, and it seemed that some important guest had asked him to meet. ” "At the time, I thought it was just a business business, so I didn't care much about it.
But now that you're saying that, it's really possible."
After listening to Jin Xiuzhu's story, Zhao Guoyang was even more sure of his guess.
He sighed and said, "If you can let this Chairman Li take time out of his conversation with a big man like Miss Xiuzhu to arrange a meeting, it seems that the other party should be the one I guessed, who wants to buy the shares of Hanbao Iron and Steel Company." ” Jin Xiuzhu was stunned, and immediately asked out loud: "Guoyang, listen to the meaning of your words, it seems that you have guessed the identity of this person with the intention of acquisition, who he is."
Listening to Jin Xiuzhu's question, Zhao Guoyang did not answer directly, but reminded him.
"Miss Xiuzhu, let me ask you a question.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
From your South Korea, you can find a few companies that can have enough money to buy Hanbo Steel."
Hearing Zhao Guoyang's question, Jin Xiuzhu was a little dazed.
She put aside the distracting thoughts in her mind for the time being, and muttered along Zhao Guoyang's prompt: "Well, although Hanbao Iron and Steel Company has not performed well over the years, the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, and its market value and fixed asset value are still unquestionable. ” "Enterprises that have the strength to acquire Hanbao Iron and Steel Company, we can count all the slaps in South Korea.
It's nothing more than giants like Samsung Electronics, POSCO, and G Group. ” When Zhao Guoyang heard this, he agreed and said: "That's right, the companies you mentioned do have enough capital to acquire Hanbao Iron and Steel Company." ” "However, the business of Samsung Electronics and G Group is not very compatible with the steel industry.
The possibility of them buying Hanbao Iron and Steel Company should be very small.
I'm not wrong about that."
After listening to Zhao Guoyang's analysis, Jin Xiuzhu responded again and again: "Yes, these two companies should indeed be excluded first." ” "Because their total assets are high enough, they are complete outsiders to the steel manufacturing industry.
Even if Hanbao Steel Company is acquired, it will only continue to lose money, and it really doesn't make much sense. ” "That's right," Zhao Guoyang said approvingly, "then among the remaining enterprises, POSCO's own smelting equipment and brand reputation are above Hanbao Iron and Steel Company, and there is no need for it to spend a lot of effort to acquire a similar enterprise that is obviously declining."
"With that funding, it might as well open a few more branches.
Or buy some small, but well-equipped, small steel smelters."
Jin Xiuzhu still recognized Zhao Guoyang's analysis, and said again and again at the moment: "Yes, Guoyang."
I don't think it's possible for POSCO. ” "The reason is very simple, the two giants of the steel manufacturing industry have too many conflicts of interest in our South Korea, and the contradictions are too deep.
A few years ago, the cold-rolled steel incident of the deck was almost a freezing point in the relationship between the two sides. ” "Even if POSCO wants to buy Hanbao Iron & Steel Company, the other party will definitely not be restrained, but will do its best."
When Zhao Guoyang heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said: "I understand, do you think that Hanbao Iron and Steel Company will definitely rather be broken than broken when facing POSCO."
"That's right, that's what I thought," Kim so-joo blurted out.
After the two analyzed it like this, Zhao Guoyang had basically guessed the buyer of "Hanbao Iron and Steel Company".
He slowly reminded Jin Xiuzhu: "Since it is impossible for these super conglomerates to buy the shares of Hanbao Iron and Steel Company, who else is left?"
Listening to Zhao Guoyang's meaningful words, Jin Xiuzhu seemed to gradually come to her senses.
She muttered: "If we talk about economic strength, we also have the strength to acquire Hyundai Group in South Korea."
In addition, the Kia Group and our Daewoo Group can barely get together, and we can probably do it."
Speaking of this, Kim so-joo suddenly figured out something.
She exclaimed: "I understand, Guoyang, you are talking about Hyundai Group, only it has enough confidence to change our Daewoo Group in terms of capital injection into Hanbao Iron and Steel Company, even if the acquisition is successful, it will have to owe a lot of debts":
