Silicon Valley

On April 29, the CEOs of UPS and FedEx jointly came to Nicholas Group.

FedEx CEO Shi Weide, Henry has met once, about forty or fifty years old, and he is also the founder of FedEx!

Scott Davis, chairman and executive officer of ups United Parcel Service, Henry is the first time to see him, wearing glasses, about 1.75 meters tall, in his 40s, in a suit and leather shoes, dressed like a successful person!

"Welcome to both!!!" Henry greeted with a smile, "Mr. Schweeder and Mr. Scott Davis!"

"Long time no see, Mr. Henry Williams!" Schweide smiled and looked at Henry.

Henry smiled, "Yes, it's been two or three years..." Henry said, turning his head and looking at Scott Davis, "Mr. Scott Davis and Mr. Schweider come to me with Company, there must be something important to discuss, come and talk in my office!"

Scott Davis and Schweide smiled at each other and followed behind Henry.

After a while, Henry and the others came to the office of the chairman of the Nicholas Group.

"What do you need to drink? I have everything here!" Henry said after inviting them to sit down.

"I'll just have a glass of water!" Mr. Schweide said with a smile.

"Where's Mr. Scott Davis?"

Scott Davis smiled: "I'm like Schweeder..."

Henry nodded, gave the secretary a look, and told her to bring two glasses of water.

At this moment, Henry secretly guessed in his mind that the two of them came together, what was the reason? But obviously, it must be related to the courier company.

Before Henry had spoken, Schweide smiled: "Mr. Williams, do you remember the request I made to you a few years ago?"

"A request made a few years ago?" Henry thought for a while, remembering that time when Schweide made it. Want to buy Nicholas Express!

Henry replied: "I remember, at that time, you proposed to me. You wanted to buy Nicholas Express, but I rejected it. What? See what you mean, you still want to buy Nicholas Express today?"

Schweide smiled, "I definitely want to. But I know you definitely don't want to sell! So, today I'm here with Scott Davis, chairman of ups United Parcel Service!"

"Hehe, could it be that I'm willing to sell it when you come together?!"

"Oh, don't get me wrong, we don't mean to force you! We want to find you to cooperate!" Shi Weide saw Henry's face change. misunderstand yourself. So he quickly explained.

"Cooperation?" Henry smiled, "Aren't we cooperating all the time?"

"Of course, we've been working together. However, we can collaborate more deeply..." Schweide said.

Scott Davis nodded and said: "Yes, we want to cooperate more closely with the Nicholas Group to form a big interest group!"

"You guys talk about it, what kind of cooperation method?" Henry thought for a while, then asked.

"It's simple, cross swap!"

Scott Davis said. "Ups and FedEx each make a cross swap to Nicholas Express!"

As soon as Henry heard this, he understood what they were paying attention to, and wanted to complete the joint holding of Nicholas Express Company through a cross-share swap, so as to control the development of Nicholas Express Company. In the future, as long as Nicholas Express competes with itself, it will definitely withdraw Nicholas Express from the competition and give the profits to itself!

Henry has learned more about this kind of trick, and foreign capital enters China for development, and gains a controlling stake in the company with technology or capital. But in the end, they deliberately ruined the company and sold their own products, because in this way they can make more money, or they will get a large part of the profit!

Although ups and FedEx do not say that they will bring down Nicholas Express, they can limit the development of Nicholas Express...

Henry's face remained calm, but instead asked with a smile, "How exactly do I exchange shares?"

Scott Davis laughed at this time: "Ups company exchanged 5% of the shares for 30% of Nicholas Express, and FedEx exchanged 5% of the shares for Nicholas to see the company's 25% of the shares! This way , everyone holds shares with each other and forms an interest team!"

Henry sneered in his heart, it was really nice to say, but also interest groups, if he is not familiar with the darkness of capital society, he really fell for you!

"First of all, you seriously underestimate the market value of Nicholas Express, and secondly, Nicholas Group will hold an absolute controlling stake in Nicholas Express no matter what. Especially the last point, it can never be changed!!!" Henry said solemnly.

Scott Davis and Schweide frowned in unison after hearing this.

Schweide said: "Well, we can increase the market value of Nicholas Express a little bit, but you also know that its market value is still a lot worse than our company! After the cross-exchange, the Nicholas Group held The shares of the company will inevitably drop a lot, so absolute control is impossible!"

Scott Davis added on the side: "Schweide is right, absolute control, I am afraid it is impossible. However, we can guarantee that Nicholas Group is still the largest shareholder! Besides, through cross-exchange , Nicholas Group can also hold shares in the two largest express delivery companies in the United States, and the three of us can join forces to monopolize most of the American market!!!”

"Yeah, Mr. Williams, please think about it!" Schweide said, "You should know that if it weren't for the Nicholas Group Company, our two companies would not care about a Nicholas Express Company, after all, its heritage is still too great. weak!"

Henry was silent and did not speak. If you agree to this, you will inevitably lose control of Nicholas Express in the future. It is not easy to get it back!

Henry shook his head resolutely and said, "If the Nicholas Group cannot be absolutely controlled, then there is no need to talk about the exchange of shares!"

"Mr. Williams, why are you obsessed with absolute control?" Schweide frowned.

Henry said lightly: "Just in case, our Nicholas Group doesn't want to be the second Steve Jobs. You should know how he was kicked out of the company... I have to speculate maliciously, whether it is one day in the future, you guys The two companies will join hands to drive the Nicholas Group of companies out of Nicholas Express..."

"Shweide and Mr. Scott Davis, what do you think?" Henry sneered at the corner of his mouth.
