#274 - Chapter 274: Lack of money! Call everyone, count the dividends, and raise 30 billion!
Chen Hao frowned in thought.
When Shengshi Mining was established, it was agreed that Sun Yue would hold 10% of the shares, with him investing 5 billion Huaxia币.
Obviously, this amount of investment was far from enough to buy the Atacama Salt Flat mine.
Which of the two purchase methods to choose?
Definitely the latter!
Lithium ore exists in more than one form.
If it were ore, it could be directly mined and transported back to China by ocean.
The Atacama Salt Flat mine is different!
It exists in the form of brine, which is difficult to transport over long distances.
A preliminary processing plant must be built: this would drive local upstream and downstream enterprises, as well as a large number of jobs—the second mode of cooperation.
But even so, it would still cost 7 billion US dollars!
Compared to the future value of the Atacama Salt Flat mine, this price is unbelievably cheap.
The problem is…
7 billion US dollars.
Equivalent to more than 57 billion Huaxia币!
Shengshi Mining only has 5 billion on its books.
Hanteng Capital has more than 400 billion on its books…
Already donated!
Leaving only a little over 10 billion.
Even if Shengshi Mining and its parent company, Hanteng Capital, combined all their funds, it would still not be enough to close the deal.
Only half a month!
If this funding is not raised within half a month, not only will the transaction be terminated, but the deposit will not be refunded.
Chen Hao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
A few days ago, he still had hundreds of billions in assets, but now he was worried about tens of billions.
Too outrageous!
Of course, there are actually ways to solve it.
For example, telling General Wang that there is a project that urgently needs money.
Take some to use first, and make up for it later.
The problem is, how could he be embarrassed to ask for the money back after donating it?
Half a month!
He must raise this money!
He was originally going out to prepare a surprise for his wife, but it seems he can only postpone it.
…
Hanteng Capital.
CEO's office.
"What?!"
After hearing Chen Hao finish explaining the situation, Xia Qingyan widened her almond-shaped eyes: "Donating until you're penniless! Now what? Where are you going to raise fifty or sixty billion in half a month? It's likely that… that 100 million US dollar deposit will be lost!"
"Sister Xia…"
The habitual address had just been uttered when Chen Hao immediately changed his words: "Sister, the deposit will definitely not be lost, you can rest assured about that."
"Then tell me, how are you going to raise so much money?"
"First, check how much money is in the accounts of the major subsidiaries and the companies we've invested in."
"You want to hold a meeting?"
There are some methods he doesn't want to use.
Once the global financial order is disrupted, it will also cause damage to Huaxia.
Not long after, Xia Qingyan returned: "Everyone except those not in Shanghai will be here in an hour."
The subsidiary Shenzhou Automobile is in Jinling.
There are also some invested companies, such as Sun Guolong's Longchuan Alloy, and both Ma's are not in Shanghai.
However…
Chen Hao didn't count on them.
Both Ma's are burning money, and the investment in them is not much; profits won't be seen in the short term.
An hour later.
Conference room.
"Tenglong Infrastructure has 500 million in liquid funds!" Huang Shengnan was the first to speak.
Xia Qingyan was stunned.
Last year, Chen Hao cooperated with Ma Dafa to establish the Tenglong Infrastructure subsidiary, investing 200 million for a 51% stake.
Unexpectedly…
It already has 500 million in liquid funds.
That is to say, in just a few months, it earned nearly 300 million!
Of course.
For Chen Hao's current needs, this amount of money is just a drop in the bucket.
"Hantang Media has 1 billion in liquid funds!" Xiao Ling smiled.
The advertising revenue from 'China's Strongest Voice' is considerable.
Qin Keqing's concert made a lot of money.
In addition!
She followed Chen Hao's instructions and sold those popular songs as mobile phone ringtones—making a killing!
"Longyu Network has 1.6 billion in its account!"
Deng Xiaoyan's voice was very loud.
Haozi, your godfather didn't let you down, did he?
'Legend' made 60 million on its first day of charging fees.
He was so excited at the time.
60 million a day.
1.8 billion a month.
A year…
Chen Hao directly poured cold water—'Legend' is a monthly card!
Indeed.
For a period of time afterward, daily revenue decreased significantly, and soon stabilized.
But!
It's February 2001 now!
As awareness spread, there were more and more 'Legend' players.
The number of players charging cards has increased several times!
What's more.
It's been a few months since the charging started, and it's been making money all along.
After Deng Xiaoyan reported the funds, many people showed surprised expressions.
Is gaming so profitable?
"Jiutian Electronics."
Suddenly!
Liu Qing stood up: "The account has 11.7 billion in funds."
What?
In an instant.
Everyone's faces were full of shock.
How much money did Chen Hao invest in him when Liu Qing sought investment from Hanteng Capital?
How long has it been?
The profit is as high as more than 10 billion?!
"President Liu, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?" Li Ju exclaimed.
She is the financial director of the parent company, mainly supervising direct subsidiaries.
Companies invested by Hanteng Capital, such as Longyu Network and Jiutian Electronics, do not directly submit their accounts to her.
"Chairman Chen!"
Liu Qing's face was very excited: "I've been waiting for you to check the accounts!"
Last year.
The several storage devices Chen Hao gave him to research and develop were completed.
250G hard drives!
2G of memory!
As well as flash memory, U disks, etc.
In short.
The product completely crushed its peers, and Chen Hao asked him to compare it with his peers, only raising the price by a mere 20%.
Most importantly.
On the day he reported to Chen Hao, the first phase of the four major city comprehensive industrial parks was officially completed.
This meant that other acquired assembly plants could produce SP4s, LCD TVs, and LCD monitors, and the four major industrial parks could use all their production capacity for his side.
That's right!
In just three months, Jiutian Electronics' storage devices almost monopolized the domestic market!
Storage capacity far exceeds similar products.
Read and write speed.
Security.
Stability.
All performance crushed peers.
The price is only 20% higher than similar products.
What concept is that?
Not only monopolized the domestic market, but also opened up the international market, the key to getting his goods, countless agents paid deposits.
A lot of these 10 billion are deposits.
"Not bad!"
Chen Hao finally showed a smile: "President Xia, calculate how much money there is?"
"31.8 billion."
Xia Qingyan gave the answer, but subconsciously frowned.
Even if not calculating the series of funds needed to build the Atacama Salt Flat mine, it is still short of more than 20 billion!
That's right!
Many companies are invested in, which means that Hanteng Capital only owns part of the funds on the account.
Calculating it like this is even less.
It's just.
In front of these people in charge, she can't directly tell Chen Hao.
"Everyone!"
Chen Hao stood up and smiled: "How about… calculating the dividends according to the share ratio today?"
Wow!
Everyone was overjoyed.
There was a lot of money in the account before, but it didn't belong to them personally.
Once the dividends are distributed, it will be different.
There is money!
Money that belongs to them!
"President Li."
Chen Hao smiled at Li Ju: "The rest is up to you."
"Auntie! I'll go first!" Deng Xiaoyan rushed over.
Okay!
In this kind of large conference occasion, even Chen Hao calls her President Li, only Deng Xiaoyan doesn't care about this—Chen Hao's aunt, is also his aunt.
"Okay, you go first." Li Ju chuckled.
On the other side.
Chen Hao and Xia Qingyan left the conference room.
"It's still a lot short, what to do?" Xia Qingyan was worried.
"Don't worry, it's enough."
"Obviously…"
Suddenly!
Before she finished speaking, Xia Qingyan stared at him: "You have another way to make money?"
"There's some left on your card, do you want to invest it?" Chen Hao smiled cheekily.
"Okay!"
Her eyes lit up.
After the dividend of more than 28 billion, she directly donated the integer, leaving less than 400 million on the card.
Poor!
Just right to make some money with her brother-in-law!
She just doesn't know, how exactly is he going to make money?
And where does he get the confidence to earn more than 20 billion in just half a month?
