Back To 1995: Chapter 1052 Divide the cake
Chapter 1052 Divide the cake
Seeing Song Yang and the two coming, Marcus stepped forward and reported to Song Yang about Boston Dynamics in a low voice. Song Yang nodded slightly when he heard it.
Letting Mark Reporter develop a robot that can dance or play Go for Boston Dynamics is to increase the reputation of Boston Dynamics.
Fame is a false name, but sometimes its effect is more important than strength, just like those big-name products, the same thing, even if it is made by the same foundry, as long as it is labeled That brand is several times more expensive than the products with the OEM's own brand, but there are still countless people paying for it!
Boston Dynamics is quite well-known now, but that is in the eyes of its peers. Everyone tacitly knows the strength of Boston Dynamics, but in the eyes of the outside world, in the eyes of ordinary users, they do not know that they have developed robots that can dance, or concocted a big one. News, using a robot that can play Go and chess to defeat the world champion, Boston Dynamics will be out of the circle at that moment, and it may be listed in textbooks around the world to record this historical scene.
At that time, whether Boston Dynamics goes public to cut leeks, lands on Nasdaq for a fortune, or releases several models, such as sweeping robots and electronic pet dogs, they may all be sold well, and some robot concept stocks of later generations will not be seen. Relying on selling sweeping robots and housekeeping robots, they earn tens of billions of dollars a year, and their market value is almost skyrocketing. Their robot level is actually not as good as one-tenth of Boston Dynamics, but it does not hinder They tasted the sweetness first!
Song Yang sat down with Chuck Rhodes, Greck, Marcus and others, and let the caddy, waiter and others leave.
Sitting here, Chuck Rhodes has already made up his mind, knowing which side to stand on both sides of these energy giants and the Bruno family!
"The Bruno family, which properties of the Enron Group do you want to acquire?!" Facing Song Yang, Greck and other members of his own family, Chuck Rhodes asked directly.
Greck was the first to speak, "The Bruno family will not go to war with the entire energy group of America!"
This has set the tone. It is impossible for the Bruno family to say that because they want to eat the energy business of the Enron Group, they are making enemies of the entire American energy group. That is the way to self-destruct the city wall.
Chuck Rhodes also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. With Greck's words, there is room for maneuver with the energy group this time.
"The Bruno family can abandon Enron Group's overseas business, whether it is natural gas, mines, oil fields, gas fields, or power plants!"
Song Yang looked at Chuck Rhodes. Over the years, Enron, relying on the issuance of shares, Jeff Skilling and those executives have made a lot of money. Although they used various tricks to cash out countless dollars, However, it has also purchased huge properties overseas. From Brazil to Canada, from Asan to Singapore, and even Yanjing, Rongcheng and other places, Anron Group has invested a large number of power companies. Otherwise, how could it expand its revenue in a short period of time? to that point.
"This acquisition is mainly based on Baker Hughes Energy Company. It is required to acquire Enron Group's Enron online energy trading platform and Enron's local oil business in Houston. In addition, it is necessary to take over all of Enron's natural gas pipelines and power facilities in America. !"
Baker Hughes Energy Company is a piece of fat that Song Yang snatched from General Electric before. Baker Hughes Energy Company has a complete set of oil industry chain technology, but it has rashly opened up with Mobil, Exxon, Duke and other oil giants. Films, regardless of whether they take advantage of it or not, they are likely to stumble.
It might be better to take over Enron's oil business in Houston first, and first get involved with the American Petroleum Association, which is as famous as the military-industrial complex, and then gradually develop it after it has established a firm foothold.
Enron owns the No. 1 natural gas pipeline in America. Once it took over, Baker Hughes Energy Company became the largest natural gas operator in America, ranking among the top three power operators in America!
Eat one bite will not make you fat, and you may even choke to death. Baker Hughes can get Enron's natural gas pipeline, electricity business, local oil business in Houston, plus the previous Enron online futures platform, and it is already a lot of money!
After Chuck Rhodes heard Song Yang's request, he pondered for a moment and then nodded to Song Yang. Although Baker Hughes will get a lot of things this time, it's not too outrageous.
"Song, as long as Baker Hughes Energy is willing to assume a certain amount of Enron's debts, and after the acquisition of Enron's natural gas pipeline and power business, and does not make a large-scale reduction in staff, I can ask the Enron Bankruptcy Committee to negotiate with Baker Hughes Energy. The company reached a deal!"
At this time, Chuck Rhodes knew that it was time for him to do his best for the big benefactor. At this time, he must definitely charge forward for the big benefactor.
The small restaurant of the golf club is also the place where Song Yang met Adrian for the first time. It is still the same place, but things have changed.
In the small restaurant, there are always a dozen people sitting. One of them, when Song Yang came in, stared at Song Yang closely.
"It's Dynaky Power President Richard Watson!"
Marcus opened his mouth and reminded Song Yang in a low voice that Dynaky Power is the main opponent in this competition with Baker Hughes for Enron Power.
Song Yang responded to Richard Watson, and nodded to the other party with a smile, but Watson didn't smile at all, but his face became more serious.
The current market value of Dynaky Power exceeds 42 billion US dollars. In addition to power generation, it also has businesses such as trade and energy transactions. The reason why Dynaky Power is so active this time and wants to play the role of savior to save Enron is that Dai Nucky, himself, was in trouble.
At present, the main power generation equipment of Dynaky Power is all coal-fired power stations. The equipment of these power plants is old, and the cost of power generation is high. Not to mention that they are seriously affected by the price of coal, and the Federal Environmental Protection Agency finds fault every three days. , and then issue a few big tickets.
The power plants under Enron are mostly gas-fired power plants established in the last ten years, using natural gas for power generation. After all, natural gas is Enron's old business, and it is more convenient to use.
The acquisition of Enron's power business, for Dynaky Power, will not only become the largest power supplier in America, but also take the opportunity to get rid of coal-fired power plants. Now I have also met the Bruno family, a local local local snake in Houston. Although they were both born in Texas, Richard Watson knows who is the real local snake between Dynaky Electric and the Bruno family and will get the German Support from Texas Municipality and Houston Municipality!
"On behalf of the Enron Bankruptcy Affairs Committee, I welcome everyone to come. Enron has been bankrupt for nearly half a year. This matter cannot be delayed any longer, and more Enron employees and users must not be affected!"
Chuck Rhodes stood in the lobby of the small restaurant, tapping the wine glass in his hand with a fork, and glanced at Koch, Mobil, Exxon, ConocoPhillips, Duke Energy and other giant companies.
"The Enron Bankruptcy Committee has applied to the Federal Bankruptcy Court to forgive most of Enron's debts, and divided Enron's business into local business and overseas business for auction. The auction proceeds will be used to repay Enron's debts, as well as Enron's employees. Pensions and salaries, etc.!"
While hearing the strings, you can know the elegant meaning. After hearing what Chuck Rhodes said, the giant companies in the small restaurant immediately understood what it meant, and they were all gearing up for a while.
"Enron Group is in Brazil, owns the largest natural gas pipeline in Brazil, and owns many iron ore, nickel ore and other resources in Brazil..."
As soon as Chuck Rhodes finished speaking, representatives of Mobil, Exxon and other energy giants all looked towards Song Yang. Seeing that Song Yang had no intention of speaking, the representative of Exxon Petroleum said, "Exxon Petroleum is willing to take over Enron's business in Brazil!"
This seemed to be a signal, and then Anron's overseas industries were divided up one after another, and all of them cost less than one-tenth of the original price!
Seeing that Enron's inheritance was about to be divided up, Richard Watson finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Mayor Rhodes, what about Enron's natural gas pipeline and electricity business?!"
Chuck Rhodes said casually, "The Enron Bankruptcy Committee has decided to hand over Enron's natural gas pipeline and power business to Baker Hughes Energy Company. The Bankruptcy Committee believes that this is the best choice." !"
Richard Watson laughed angrily. Although he knew that today was a spoils conference, but he was so blatantly naked and didn't want any face, so he scraped off Enron's inheritance, and let him Can't help it.
"Baker Hughes Energy Company, do you have any experience in operating a power company? This is a disaster. The future of the Houston municipal government will definitely regret it!"
Throwing this sentence, Richard Watson walked away angrily. He knew that if he continued to stay, Dynaky Power would not miss anything.
