"Director Feng, how much do we have to pay?" Wang Wei asked. r?anw enw?w?w?.
"Although we are a newly established company, we need to acquire some smaller logistics companies, build our own transfer stations, parcel collection stations, etc., and purchase some trucks, battery cars, or motorcycles. The total investment is almost It’s about US$5 billion. If you fully subscribe for 15% of the equity, it will cost US$7.8 billion.”
Wang Wei and Li Shiqiang both had sad faces. Their net worth had naturally exceeded US$780 million, but most of it was the company's assets. Unless they sold their shares, they would never be able to get so much money. RMB 780 million is about the same.
They also know that the United States has some of the largest logistics companies in the world. If they want to grab food from those giants, the scale must not be too small, otherwise they will either go bankrupt or be acquired.
Now they have a good opportunity. With Amazon and Yibei, two companies with a lot of logistics orders, taking shares, and other companies' orders will be handed over to them. If they don't seize this opportunity, they will just watch. Watch the opportunity slip away.
Feng Yu also saw the embarrassment of the two people. He smiled and said: "You can get a loan. Using the assets of your two logistics companies as collateral, it will not be a problem to borrow one billion US dollars."
Although the two logistics companies have not been listed, their asset valuations have already exceeded 20 billion RMB. If they choose to go public, their market value will definitely skyrocket. After all, the two of them together are bigger than China Postal Logistics, and they are backed by With a market as big as China, we will definitely be able to make a lot of money in the future.
A loan of RMB 5 billion may be difficult for other companies, but it is not difficult for these two companies. Many people find it difficult to pass bank loan approval because the value of the assets you pledge is insufficient and your ability to repay is not reassuring.
For many companies, banks are eager for you to lend money. This is obviously a profitable business, who would say no
"If you can't find a bank to get a loan, you can consider Minsheng Bank. Minsheng Bank can handle your two loans now. Of course, you also have your own bank, and I believe the loan procedures will be simpler there. Specifically. How you choose is up to you."
Even Amazon and Yibai require loans. However, the loan amounts of those two are not high and the repayment period is very short.
As for Feng Yu and Kirilenko, they don't need loans at all and invest directly with cash.
After Li Shiqiang and the others left, Kirilenko looked at Feng Yu with excitement: "Feng, will our logistics company become the number one in the world in the future?"
Feng Yu glanced at Kirilenko: "Brother Ji, have you seen the scale of large companies such as UPS? Their brand value exceeds tens of billions of dollars."
"And others have a variety of transportation assets such as aircraft, cargo ships, and trucks, as well as their customer channels and their reputation. These are all things we are far behind."
"You also invested in logistics in Russia. What was the result? This job is not easy to do, right? But if you do it well, you can definitely make a lot of money."
"Of course you have to think about being number one in the world, but it won't be too simple. This can't be achieved by simply throwing money. And even if you spend money to gain customers and reputation, when will you make money back?"
Others have business dealings in more than 200 countries around the world, have hundreds of thousands of employees and contractors, and have a long-standing reputation. And this is not an innovative industry. Besides improving service quality, what else can you do
You said automated parcel sorting, this person has it. You said that you will be notified online or by phone to pick up the package, and this person also has it.
As long as you can think of it, others can think of it. As for this inn, although the other party does not have it, they have cooperated with the postal service and rented the postal service outlets, and the effect is similar.
The logistics industry, to put it bluntly, is a service industry, not a high-tech industry. It is not something that you can instantly stand out by possessing a certain technology.
One of the reasons why Amazon and Yibai want to take shares is to control the logistics channels in their own hands, so as not to be passive during promotions. Another reason is that this can effectively reduce their logistics costs and increase their competitiveness and profits.
Previously, the business of Amazon and Yibai were outsourced to several logistics companies such as UPS.
They will first try it in the United States. Once it is done here, the logistics company can expand based on the business scope of Amazon and Yibai, or the business scope of Feng Yu, Kirilenko and other companies.
You may not necessarily make a lot of money, but you can guarantee that you won’t lose money and you can still maintain your initiative.
After everyone communicated about this matter, Feng Yu asked the media to start reporting on the matter. Before the business started, he wanted to let the brand get started. This time, everyone’s opinions were combined, and the logistics company was called Beifeng.
Wind represents wind, rain and tailwind, and north means polar bear. It also represents the American Northern Logistics acquired by American shareholders.
After this news came out, Li Shiqiang and Wang Wei's offices have not been interrupted.
Many people come to their office every day, most of them are bank representatives, to give them loans.
Others queue up at the bank for loans, but for them, the bank proactively comes to provide services. This is the gap.
…
"Mr. Wang, we have the lowest loan interest and fast disbursement."
"Mr. Wang, don't listen to him, we lend money quickly, and I will personally come to provide you with door-to-door service. Our interest rate is the lowest."
"Mr. Wang, come to our bank for a loan. You are going to invest in the United States this time. We can directly lend you US dollars, which is more convenient."
"Mr. Wang, we have been working together for many years. It's unreasonable to get a loan from another bank, right? What conditions do you want? Just tell me directly. If I frown today, you will pretend that you have never known me!"
Wang Wei felt like his head was pounding. It had been three days. This group of people had been coming every day, and their level was getting higher and higher day by day. People from HSBC and Citibank were also here, rushing to give him a loan.
Domestic banks played the family card, and foreign banks said they were the most convenient for lending in foreign currencies. In the end, he had no choice but to choose a compromise, which was to choose more banks for loans.
He called and asked, and this was the method Li Shiqiang used. He wanted to resolve this matter quickly so that he could start preparations for Beifeng Logistics.
They planned to open the business in three months, but it was delayed for so long because of the loan issue, which was not worth the loss.
In the United States, one is to determine the salary standards for delivery personnel, and the other is to establish a logistics network. This is the most important task, and it is also an important task related to the future development of the company.
When Wang Wei and the others were getting a loan, Reed led his people to the capital. Some details must be discussed with Feng Yu.
