My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 662 Tesla
"Whether I can make a comeback or not depends on whether you, Xu Dong, are willing to give me a hand."

Musk hinted bluntly.

Xu Dong woke up in an instant. The person opposite him was not only a former Silicon Valley tycoon and a technology upstart, but also an old fox who had been in the mall for a long time.

Talking about feelings with the other party is tantamount to sending sheep to the tiger's mouth.

"Mike knows that I am the most fair person."

Xu Dong didn't answer directly.

While nodding in cooperation, Mr. Mike beckoned them to sit down.

Mrs. Mike quickly delivered pizza and a pot of freshly brewed coffee. Coffee is definitely a scarce commodity these days, so I really drink a little less.

After all, the big plantations in the beautiful country are gone.

Except for the beautiful country, coffee is rarely grown in other countries, including the Europa region and the Tianzhu Peninsula. On the one hand, it is because of economic conditions that do not allow it, and on the other hand, there are also factors of high technical threshold.

As for Daxia, that's even more impossible.

Mike pointed to the afternoon tea and said, "Look, Lao Xu brought the pizza, and Musk gave me the coffee. What's this called? It's a match made in heaven."

Xu Dong was too lazy to complain.

Since he wanted something from others, Musk put on a very low profile, boasting about the pizza, especially when he learned that the pizza was made by Lele, he was shocked on the spot, and repeatedly shouted:
"Unbelievable, Unbelievable..."

Xu Dong felt that the other party was exaggerating too much.

After eating pizza and drinking coffee, it's time to start.

As an intermediary, Mr. Mike first introduced the basic situation. Musk intends to sell 120% of the shares at a package price of [-] billion yuan.

Speaking of which, the discount rate is not small.

"Musk, I know this price is fair, and I really want to agree to it, but I don't have that much money at the moment."

Xu Dong tried to suggest:
"How about 80% of the shares, [-] billion?"

Musk shook his head: "For funding issues, I can help you contact the bank. Coke Bread Factory and Xinke Seaweed are both very high-quality companies. I don't think any bank will refuse."

"NO NO NO, in fact, I personally prefer a conservative business style. It's not that I can't accept loans, but it's definitely not now."

Xu Dong quickly explained.

"Mr. Xu, if a company wants to grow bigger and stronger, it should learn to make good use of financial tools. A mere 2 billion debt will have almost no impact on you."

Musk tried hard to convince the other party.

His new plan needs so much money.

"Under normal circumstances, I very much agree with your point of view, but it is different now. The world situation is changing rapidly. No one knows what will happen tomorrow. It is not harmful to be conservative."

Xu Dong waved his hand.

In fact, the root cause stems from his lack of self-confidence.

Without the advantage of rebirth and lack of relevant experience, the only thing he can think of at the moment is to "dig a hole deep and accumulate food widely", so as to respond to all changes with the same.

Seeing that Musk couldn't convince the other party, he immediately changed his mind.

"Mr. Xu, if you really have financial difficulties here, how about we exchange the extra shares for shares?"

"Oh, how would you like to change it?"

Xu Dong was very interested.

As Mr. Mike said before, "Yuanshijie" has not been listed after all, and this kind of "original stock" is still very attractive.

"We can exchange one-for-one value based on the company's valuation. 'Yuan World' is currently valued at 5000 billion yuan, and I want to exchange for 100 billion in cash and 50 billion worth of stocks."

Musk temporarily increased the sale stake.

He holds a total of [-]% of the shares in "Yuan Shijie", which is equivalent to a complete withdrawal.

Five years to market is too long, and he can't afford to wait.

"Which company do you want to exchange for shares?"

Of course Xu Dong would not refuse.

"I choose Xinke Seaweed."

Musk has an adventurous spirit in his bones.

Although the market value of the bakery is higher, he doesn't like it at all. In comparison, Xinke Seaweed is undoubtedly much taller, and it is more in line with his investment concept.

"No problem." Xu Dong took out his mobile phone on the spot, "Based on the current stock price, 50 billion can be exchanged for 2153 million shares. Let's use this as the exchange standard. What do you think?"

The current total market value of Xinke Seaweed is 858.56 billion yuan.

Two thousand more than 100 million shares, accounting for about 5.00% of the shares, is already the second largest individual shareholder after Xu Dong.

After this exchange of shares, Xu Dong's shareholding ratio will fall below [-]% for the first time, which is equivalent to voluntarily giving up absolute control.

After all, Shinco Seaweed is a high-tech company.

He personally holds too many shares, which is not conducive to the development of the company. If he has the opportunity, he will release more shares. Only when the community of interests is large enough, the company can go further.

"OK, I totally agree."

Musk said without hesitation.

Xu Dong didn't drag his feet, and stretched out his right hand on the spot: "It's a happy cooperation."

"Happy cooperation!"

"Papa...congratulations to you two."

Mr. Mike couldn't help applauding.

Don't forget that he still has a [-]% commission.

It is equivalent to a one-time entry of 1.2 million.

……

After reaching a consensus, both parties breathed a sigh of relief.

As for the transaction process, there will naturally be special personnel responsible for follow-up, and they only need to sign at the end.

After finishing the business, Xu Dong was very interested in Musk's next plan, and couldn't help asking:

"Musk, you have so much money now, where do you plan to start?"

"Aerospace has always been my ultimate dream. Unfortunately, the current conditions do not allow it. The rocket cannot be launched at all. I can only choose to rebuild Tesla."

"It's a good idea. Europa and Uzreel are going crazy. There is already an energy crisis. Electric vehicles are a good direction for development."

Xu Dong agreed.

Mike asked: "Is 10 billion enough?"

"It's definitely not enough, and the supply chain is also a big trouble. Fortunately, I have reached a preliminary cooperation intention with Shanghai Automobile Group and plan to jointly invest in the construction of the factory."

"Are you going to Shanghai and Beijing to set up a factory?"

"No, the factory will be located here in Sydney. The local industrial production in Daxia is extremely strictly controlled. From the space station to the bicycle, I can't get involved. This is my paradise."

Musk replied.

Realistically speaking, in the current difficult situation, a planned economy is obviously more suitable than a market economy.

Give the simplest example.

If the market was left alone, domestic plant factories would have bloomed everywhere. Some people might think that this is a good thing and can increase food supply.

In fact, the truth is not that simple.

Behind a plant factory, the upstream and downstream industrial chains involved are very huge, from the most basic electricity and water consumption to the seeds and fertilizers that are easily overlooked by ordinary people. No matter which link can not keep up, it will cause disastrous consequences.

Blind expansion will only waste resources.

But right now, the most precious thing is all kinds of resources.

Xu Dong asked curiously, "How did you distribute the equity?"

"Shanghai Automobile accounted for [-]%, and I accounted for [-]%."

"You can also agree to this?"

Xu Dong said in surprise.

Musk shook his head helplessly: "I can't agree, I have nothing but money now, do you think SAIC is short of money?"

"I remember you had a factory in Shanghai and Beijing before?"

"Hey, I quit a long time ago. Without a complete industrial chain, what should I use to build cars?"

"It seems to be true."

Xu Dong nodded.

Even if the other party does not withdraw, there is probably not much room for survival. After all, the country has turned to a state of emergency at that time, and the civilian car market has been suppressed so severely that it is almost non-existent.
