Chapter 171 Kou can go and I can go
Song Yang knew that Kenneth and Jeff Skilling had a lot of appetite, but when they came up, they asked for 10% of America Telecom's shares. Song Yang couldn't help but feel that Jeff Skilling really dared to speak up. .

You know, selling the shares of American Telecom to Kenneth and the two of them must not be too expensive. Skilling and the two can make a lot of money.

Song Yang shook his head straight, "Manager Jeff Skilling, you know this is impossible. American Telecom's investors also include Comerica Bank, RICK and many other companies. It is impossible to give you so many shares!"

"Song, maybe you should listen to our terms."

Kenneth said calmly, "I can ask Enron's board of directors to approve the cooperation agreement with America Telecom. In addition to transferring the telecom license in Enron's hands to America Telecom, I can also invest 5 million dollars in America Telecom. , in exchange for a [-]% stake in America Telecom!"

As soon as the words fell, Song Yang couldn't help but take a deep breath, while Gallo listened dumbfounded to the people in the meeting room who openly cut An Ran's leeks, how dare they be so confident.

Song Yang had an understanding of Kenneth's courage. No wonder he was able to cripple An Ran. For America Telecom, which only had one line, he actually spent [-] million U.S. dollars directly, trying to force America Telecom to estimate The value has been pushed to the point of tens of billions of dollars!
This is the real balloon blowing. It doesn't bother the boy to sell his father's land, and Kenneth doesn't feel the slightest bit to sell his own company.

Seeing Song Yang's surprised expression, Kenneth and Jeff Skilling couldn't help laughing. They really wanted Enron to become a giant company, but this didn't conflict with their taking money from Enron.

If Kenneth and the others can't make money, they really only want to make Enron bigger and then make those institutions and investors cheaper, then what's the point of everything they do.

Enron is now making money from top to bottom. The reason why Enron is expanding so rapidly is related to the high rewards, high remuneration, high rebates, high options, and high commissions implemented by Enron.

An Enron employee, as long as a project is negotiated, can directly get a rebate of up to 30% from the project, and can get money once the negotiation is successful.

Therefore, Enron's personnel were crazily grabbing orders. As for how the project would be after the order was signed, that had nothing to do with them. Therefore, Enron had a lot of problems in the later stages of the project.

And now, Kenneth and Jeff Skilling have also applied this method to American Telecom. They use Enron's money to invest in American Telecom, and then they get some kickbacks. What's wrong?
What's the matter? Is there any problem? I have worked hard for Enron all my life, and I am approaching the age of retirement. What's wrong with getting some kickbacks from Anran? Is there a problem? Compared with Nice who has worked hard for Enron all his life, what is this? !

In Song Yang's mind, he could almost think of Kenneth's thoughts. With Kenneth's age, he would be at the retirement age of the president of a large company in America within seven or eight years at the earliest. At this time, Kenneth needed to help He, and his family, thought about it.

"Song, once Enron invests in America Telecom, it will provide "comprehensive support" for America Telecom," Kenneth said emphatically on the last word, "not only financial support, but also help America Telecom enter Arizona, Colorado, etc. land market."

"in addition!"

Kenneth knocked on the table, "I can privately convey America Telecom's plight to Senator Graham. He has always disliked certain departments in America and interfered excessively in the operation of America Corporation!"

This year is a general election year, and the whole of America is changing. In addition to a large amount of funds, Enron has given a good leader, and also invested heavily in a group of people.

The most important thing is to select a spokesperson for Enron on Capitol Hill. Graham openly accepted Enron's donation this year, almost clearly expressing his support for Enron.

Graham is also a senior congressman on Capitol Hill. He got involved with Enron because he is a supporter of many big companies in America. He has always opposed American departments and intervened too much in the market.

Translated from human words, Graham believes that there should be no restrictions on giant companies. The major departments in America should not always think about bullying those big companies. This concept of deciding everything is naturally favored by a big company like Enron.

The reason why Enron has been able to develop to this point in just a few years is that America has lifted restrictions on the energy industry. Well, it is almost a reincarnation of history. This year's telecommunications industry is almost the same as the energy industry back then. It's the same, after the restrictions were lifted, several industry giants were quickly born.

After Kenneth put forward the conditions, he looked at Song Yang. The conditions he proposed were almost all urgent needs of American Telecom. If Graham spoke out for America Telecom, he could also put pressure on the Communications Committee and let them know. American Telecom is not alone!
"8%, American Telecom can introduce special investors at a price of 6000 million US dollars, give up 8% of the equity, and let President Kenneth and Jeff Skilling manage your family foundation to invest. This 8% How to divide the equity is up to you to decide." Song Yang said to the two.

After finishing speaking, Song Yang also sighed in his heart. Originally, Song Yang didn't want to get too involved with An Ran, but now, they got more and more involved. But in a place like America, the easiest thing to get involved with is definitely Birthplace, Enron cannot be avoided in Houston!

Kenneth and Jeff Skilling looked at each other, and when their eyes met, they both made a decision. It must be Kenneth who takes the lead, Kenneth gets 5%, and Jeff Skilling gets 3% of America Telecom .

This is basically the price of Chinese cabbage for two people. Think about Enron's exchange of 5 million US dollars for 8% of America Telecom. The two of them used tens of millions of dollars to get [-]%. You don't have to pay tens of millions of dollars yourself, and then use a name to borrow the money from Enron...

"Song, you don't have to worry about our investment!" Jeff Skilling said with a smile.

As an expert in accounting, Jeff Skilling would not understand the truth of the Three Caves of the Rabbit. He has established a family foundation overseas. Even if he goes bankrupt, the family foundation will not go wrong. It is still Ami Gentlemen of Liga!

When he came out of the Enron headquarters, Gallo looked back at the Enron headquarters, recalling the scene just now, which gave Gallo a new understanding of these big men in America, which was completely different from appearing on the TV show. another face of .

After getting in the car, Song Yang glanced at Gallo, waved his hand to let Ulf drive to the next place, Song Yang had to meet many talents today.

This time I went to see An Ran, whether it was a loss or a profit, I really can't say, but at least it solved the problem of American Telecom, the license issue was resolved, and America Telecom's project, at least I don't have to worry about yellowing!
In addition, An Ran's entry also inflated America Telecom's balloon. America Telecom, which has only one line, is valued at nearly [-] billion U.S. dollars, and Song Yang was a little startled by the blowing of the balloon.

But now, for the Internet and telecommunications industry that is in a frenzy, American Telecom is not ranked high. In addition, a high valuation is also good, that is, it can attract more leeks to enter the market and shine for America Telecom.

To deal with WorldCom, America Telecom needs to inflate its valuation. Song Yang can't help being a little angry when he thinks of WorldCom. The WorldCom family must not be the only one who has played against America Telecom, but Song Yang must be the most happy dancer. It is necessary to have a match with WorldCom. If you don't do this match, you don't know who it will be next time. Treat America Telecom as fat!

"WorldCom, Bernard Ebbes!"

Gallo on the side, listening to Song Yang, uttered a few vague words.

Song Yang was thinking about how to deal with ShiCom. After a while, Song Yang suddenly turned his eyes, picked up the phone and called Irene, "I need news from ShiCom now, the more the better!"

It is not indecent to come and go, Kou can go and I can go, Shitong dares to lay hands on American Telecom, why can't Song Yang cut off Shitong's Hu, thinking of wrestling with Shitong, a billion dollar giant , Song Yang was eager to try for a while.

Ten years ago, ShiCom, who could only be a small oil mouse next to the giant elephant of telephone and telegraph, has tripped up the elephant now.

Why can't American Telecom, which is regarded as worthless by WorldCom, trip up the elephant of WorldCom? !

He pursed his lips. Song Yang had never felt this way before. He wanted to compete with the giants. This year is the beginning of the crazy era in America. It depends on who is more crazy!
