Chapter 243 Energy Issues 2

Fairy Energy has achieved the zero-debt goal and created a "miracle" in the industry, but the situation of the whole company has not really improved! Energy is an industry with very large capital needs. The project cycle is relatively long, development takes time, production takes time, sales takes time, and it also requires large-scale capital paving, which often requires hundreds of billions of billions or more. With the profits of energy companies, it can't cope with it at all. This is also almost all large-scale energy companies. The main reason for the heavy debt of the company is that in order to obtain new development projects and increase the company's mineral reserves, it has to borrow from banks again and again, and is forced to increase the company's debt ratio and share its hard-earned profits with the bank. Of course, the century-old giants have solved this problem very early. They have long formed banks through multi-industry companies or companies in the same industry, using banks to seek development funds for enterprises. It is said that this is a better financing method than the stock market. Fairy Energy has serious shortcomings in this regard, but she can't always rely on the headquarters for everything and get funds from the headquarters one after another, which is not in line with the principles of the company's operation and is even more harmful to the company's reputation. If the company wants to develop, it must have enough funds. Now her profitability has gradually improved, and the accumulation of funds has gradually increased. It is time to leave the protection and independent development of the headquarters. The financial support from the headquarters is the greatest wish of the whole company and Zhou Ruquan, especially the general manager Zhou Ruquan, whenever at the headquarters When I meet other general managers at the meeting, I always feel lack of confidence and feel that people are short, which is really "damaging the company's image"!

The headquarters is naturally very clear about the advantages and disadvantages of energy companies, and it is also extremely anxious. The function of the fairy headquarters is very complex. It is not only a single entity, but also a de facto complex. She monitors various subsidiaries and even branches and provides them with various help. It is not only their supervisor, but also their greatest dependence. At the same time, with the development of the company, it has gradually increased some social supervision. Supervision function, of course, is more to analyze the feasibility of some new projects and escort the sustainable development of the company. Originally, the fairy had no intention of entering the financial industry, but now she is getting great benefits from this industry. In fact, she is benefiting from this industry. Without the strong support of the financial industry, it is impossible for her to implement Indian investment, obtain the cyclical short-term loans needed for the company's development, let alone carry out industrial cities and energy at the same time. Source two big projects! Therefore, the headquarters management's evaluation of the bank has greatly improved, and gradually has new ideas!

Over the years, the ZG government has gradually lowered the entry threshold for banks and allowed private capital to enter banks. For this reason, a large number of private banks have emerged, but the impact of the economic crisis on the banking industry is absolute. Many banks have not recovered yet, and are even on the verge of bankruptcy. More have been completely The possibility of standing up again has been lost. However, as soon as the economy has recovered, some people can't stand it. A new batch of laughing banks have appeared in society. So, can you set up your own bank? Can you raise funds and capital turnover through "your own bank"? Fairy has many industries, and the capital demand period of various companies is not the same. Some funds are temporarily unavailable, while other companies will have a capital gap at the same time. Borrowing through companies is always not convenient. Although the headquarters plays the role of a working capital bank in most cases, if a company can be established. A real bank will make the capital scheduling of companies more convenient, greatly reduce the work pressure of the headquarters, and maintain the safety of the company's funds by raising funds in the society. Once you have this idea, the staff will immediately take action, analyze and even make decisions, and quickly implement it secretly with their unique "quickness"! Sure enough, in June 44, the headquarters made the decision to establish its own bank, and on October 8 of that year, the first branch of "Li's Bank" was established without the bank headquarters. Naturally, this is the Beijing branch. The bank's office is located inside the Fairy Building, and the office area is quite small. It only initially has the ability to "transfer funds". This is the surface of everything. However, without the embarrassment of energy companies, it is impossible for her to enter the banking industry so quickly. After all, the inherent ideas are not so easy to change!

Zhou Ruquan was very embarrassed to find that the headquarters decided to set up its own bank. Although he was embarrassed, he understood that the support of the headquarters was over, because since the headquarters had prepared the establishment of a bank, he could not worry about the image of the bank; and if the bank was established, It is an independent accounting company. It is impossible to eat a big pot of rice, and no one can tilt. Not only are energy companies constrained, but other companies are no exception, and even the headquarters is subject to some constraints! But in any case, energy companies have a clear financial support. Although it is also borrowing, it is more clear than the financial support of the headquarters, because the headquarters can dismiss the development plans of the companies on the grounds of the overall situation, and now that there are banks, it is equivalent to the acquiescence that they can directly raise funds, and more importantly, "The loan amount is bigger"! The following social reaction also illustrates this point. The social reputation of energy companies has immediately increased, and the advantages of many cooperation projects under discussion have increased significantly. There seems to be a good momentum to accelerate, which makes the already booming situation more prosperous. The social impact is becoming more and more extensive, sweeping away the gloomy and color of the previous years. Perhaps, in the near future, People will see the spectacular scene of her overwhelming the world again!

Sure enough, the energy company soon made a new breakthrough. On April 16, 1945, Fairy Energy Company cooperated with a large state-owned energy company in China, broke through many checkpoints, and finally won the bid right of an energy mining area in Antarctica. The mineral is extremely rich and is one of the rich mines available for mining in Antarctica so far. It is said that it can be ranked in the top three, because Antarctica belongs to It is internationally owned, so governments have a certain amount of mineral rights. The final bidding amount of the mining area is 400 billion yuan, which is also in the top three among the mining areas. Among them, Fairy Energy has paid 240 billion yuan in three years, accounting for 60% of the minerals and has the leading power of cooperative companies. With this At that point, she has occupied a prominent position on the list of companies that divide Antarctica, even surpassing some oligarchs! On September 3, the second big order since the establishment of Fairy Energy Company was also won, also in Antarctica, the sixth mining area in the region with a total amount of 320 billion yuan. She successfully conspired with a large energy company in India with a 50% share, although she did not enjoy the leadership of the cooperative company. However, it is also the second time that it has entered this region, ranking among the top three energy giants in Antarctica, which immediately worries some international energy oligarchs. What makes them uncomfortable is yet to come. In October, the South China Sea Ocean Ocean Energy Deep Development Project was launched, and everyone knows that it is Fairy Energy that presides over this joint development. She has a 65% share. Among the partners are not only a large domestic company (20%) but also a large Brazilian company. The energy company (who owns 15% of the shares) has a total investment of 800 billion yuan. Of course, in order to win the project, Fairy Energy will spend 520 billion yuan in the next four years (most of the money is given to the ZG government). The successive large-scale investment has made her one of the energy companies with the largest investment after the war, ranking in the top three global energy companies. Of course, the development prospects are also very considerable. Projects are available, and partners have been found... Just waiting to lead in the future global games!

Fairy prepares to build a bank. The impact of this matter is very far far beyond that of the energy company itself. At first, it looks a little unexpected, but when you think about it carefully, it is reasonable. Anyway, this has become a fact.

The wealth and strength of the fairy has become an indisputable fact, and with the realization of self-financing banks, people have found many partners on her chariot. No one has expressed any doubt about the energy of these partners! The fairy prepared to build her own bank on October 8, 44, to be precise, the Li family. The full name of the bank is "Fairy and Xixing United Bank", and the society prefers to call it "Li Bank". Judging from the name, this bank is related to two companies, but in fact, Xixing Company does not own shares. The fairy owns 80% of them and is managed by her. People are not surprised at all, because these two companies are exclusively owned by the Li family, just "her own name". Natural fairies are indeed more qualified to carry out management and supervision functions than Xixing. This time, people's attention is not only to the establishment of the bank itself, but also to some other shareholders of the bank, because the origin of these shareholders is extraordinary. The Li family changed its original style and no longer owns all bank shares. Although it also accounts for 80% of the vast majority, the investment is also as high as 400 billion yuan. Speaking of these shareholders, you may be familiar with them. It can be said that they are all big guys. Among them, the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China has contributed 35 billion yuan, accounting for 7% of the shares, the Bank of China has contributed 20 billion yuan, accounting for 4% of the shares, and the Hindustan Bank has contributed 25 billion yuan, accounting for 5% of the shares. Deutsche Bank contributed 20 billion and subscribed to the remaining shares, the same as the Bank of China. People with a little financial knowledge are very clear about the identity of these four major banks and their status in the international financial world. With the participation of these four world-class banks, it is impossible for Li Bank not to attract international attention!

Any shareholder of Lee's Bank is not despised, especially these minority shareholders, all of which are among the top 50 of the world's largest banks, three of which are still owned by Fairy Company. They all occupy a pivotal position in their respective regions! Although the shares of these four banks do not exceed 10%, and the combination is only 20%, which seems insignificant. However, although the shares are small, it does not mean that their role is slight. Who can be sure what role these banks can play? But one thing is certain. From then on, the "strong Li family" will not be isolated and besieged in the business world and other aspects. The interests make the fairy tie the line with the four banks and the investment companies behind them, and even tie them together! At the same time, the fact that it is possible to find these partners alone has made some people very uncomfortable. How can fairies convince these banks with such a low share of funds? The energy of fairies is once again displayed in front of the world. Inadvertently, there is a situation where fairies and the three major banks hold shares of each other, and the interests are more closely connected. Is it possible that a bank group with fairies as the core is about to come out?

Perhaps, people can understand the reason for the participation of the two major banks in China and the Bank of Hindustan. After all, Fairies own more shares in these companies, are their important shareholders, and their influence is also relatively large. With these relationships, it is completely possible for Li to persuade them to participate. In its own banking system, a common interest group is formed, but how did Deutsche Bank get in touch with it? Therefore, it is easy to remember some of the latter's actions in the economic crisis, and it is said that there are more involvements between the two, but with these, it does not seem to be enough to impress the latter. It is possible if the share is higher. But what is the reason for Deutsche Bank's "symbolic investment"? You know, her ranking in the world is very high. It seems that the fairy is not so charming, although there may be more banks willing to cooperate! It turns out that this is related to the Li family's partners in Europe. The Spike family has developed in Europe for more than a century and a half, and the influence is very great, especially in Germany. Of course, it also has more shares in Deutsche Bank and has a relatively large voice... When Li expressed to them something With this intention, the Spike family gave a positive answer for many reasons after careful consideration!

In fact, Fairy and Xixing Union Bank were not established at this time. They could be established earlier or later. In short, they should not be established in 44 years. First of all, the bank's headquarters should be located in the fairy industrial city. This is the unanimous view of Li, and it is also the result of the consideration of the fairy headquarters and the relevant departments of Xixing head office. However, in fact, the bank's headquarters has not yet been established, but the first branch has been established in a very inconspicuous "small place" in Beijing. This branch is It only plays the role of capital turnover. When the bank was established, there were a lot of registered capital and 500 billion fixed assets. However, only 120 billion yuan was invested in the early stage. Each shareholder only injected 20% of the contract funds, and even the fairy only injected 25% of the "sworn" funds. Why is that? The most fundamental reason is that the fairy has no working capital. She can't put all the existing funds in her hand into the bank, so she has to adopt this "most faceless" practice in history. According to internal estimates, she can't inject the rest of the contract funds until 1946. In this case, she naturally can't I ask my partners to pay more! Secondly, Fairy City will soon be completed. Most of the personnel and facilities of the headquarters will move to Fairy City in the next six months, accompanied by the head offices of various subsidiaries. Even the West Star Corporation and the investment company will move the headquarters, and Fairy Bank is no exception. According to the plan, the Beijing branch will use some of the office floors of the Fairy Building, which is also in line with the actual situation. First, the evacuation of most of the personnel and facilities, resulting in the idleness of the building, which can be used by the Beijing Branch. Second, although the Fairy Headquarters is to be evacuated, it is impossible to give up the operation in Beijing for many years, because This decision largely retains the functions of some departments, such as consulting, outreach and other departments. At the same time, it is not easy to let other companies settle in, even if it is waste utilization. In this regard, the fairy has a great right to speak. As a result, the Beijing branch is not even comparable to the office of an ordinary bank!

The bad time for the establishment of Fairy Bank is also due to the difficult choice of the person in charge. The headquarters has its own financial department, and there are quite a lot of professional talents. This time, a considerable number of people have been transferred out and directly held the leadership positions of the Beijing branch, and some people have held business. In fact, there are important leaders of the head office that do not exist. Of course, the phenomenon of talent shortage is still very serious. Through recruitment, they have barely gathered enough manpower before the noisy people complain, but the candidates for the general manager or the president have not been able to come out! The Beijing branch has been solved. Li Shikang has gone through layers of tests and occupied this throne as he wished, and the price is naturally a family living in Beijing. However, from the psychological point of view of the Li family, he is not willing to let him hold this position, although no one doubts his ability, because in their opinion It would be better if I could work at the headquarters, but I can't hand over the whole bank to this 26-year-old.

In fact, within the family, the establishment of a bank has long been proposed. After graduating from Li Shikang University, he did not return to Beijing, but directly sought a job in a bank in Shanghai. Now that he has studied this major, he intends to work in this industry. Of course, it is not easy for people like him to find a job. His identity is too special and he is a man. Fortunately, he is sincere, coupled with some behind-the-scenes transactions. In short, he soon got an important position in the Shanghai branch of a large domestic bank. In this way, he settled down in Shanghai and rented an apartment with his three wives to live temporarily. In addition to Angie, who has not yet graduated, the other two also have jobs. Of course, they all choose what they like to do, and he is obviously here to study, "of-speatedly entering other departments to study". Li Shikang is well aware of his situation and his requirements. First of all, he does not have sufficient conditions to enter the fairy's work. The company will not favor him because of his special identity, let alone deliberately cultivate him, which is not allowed by the family itself. Although there have been precedents of family members entering Fairy or Xixing, all of these people started in the branch, and entered through normal competition channels, and there were corresponding people to guide him, but he couldn't. For him, it was not appropriate to enter the headquarters directly, although the financial department also recruited some experience. A sufficient number of financial talents. Secondly, he does not think that he should enter the company now. Today's fairies obviously lack professional talents. As a member of the family, how can they increase the burden on the company? On the contrary, it is most appropriate to increase their own talents. They can also get all-round training and lay the foundation for future development. This matter is easy. After passing the opinions of the three wives, they are all willing to stay in Shanghai, because this is the city where they have lived for four years or more. Although they also know that their husbands will eventually return to Beijing, "Although Liangyuan is good, it is a very good place to stay". Beijing or Fairy City seems to be good.
