The Rise of Australia

Chapter 671 Boeing Company

Pepsi-Cola, which was famous in later generations, is not very famous now, and such an acquisition did not even make news in Virginia. โ–ฒ๐บ๐‘œ๐‘œ๐‘”๐‘™๐‘’ Search for ๐‘ ๐‘ก๐‘œ๐‘๐‘œ๐‘šReadโ–ฒ

Of course, the most important reason is that the U.S. economy is now in collapse. Thousands of acquisitions are being made every day across the United States, and who cares about this small company with a market value of only a few hundred thousand dollars?

Although he completed the task of acquiring Pepsi-Cola Beverage Company, Frank did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he announced with a high profile that he would inject $1 million into Pepsi-Cola as the controlling shareholder of Pepsi-Cola.

This matter was actually told by Arthur. After all, Pepsi-Cola has experienced several bankruptcies in history. If you wait for Pepsi-Cola to develop on its own, you don't know how long it will take.

The biggest disadvantage of Pepsi-Cola is that it has no money, which also makes the beverage companyโ€™s investment in advertising almost zero.

Without advertising, there would be no sales at all. People only know the more famous Coca-Cola. When they see Pepsi, they will think it is a fake product and will not take the initiative to buy it.

Under such circumstances, Pepsi-Cola's sales will become worse and worse. Even though the United States has long since banned alcohol, Pepsi-Cola has never been able to replace alcohol and become the new drink for Americans.

Frank's high-profile capital injection of US$1 million was intended to stabilize the situation of Pepsi-Cola Beverage Company and prevent the already depleted stock price from continuing to fall.

Secondly, it is to give confidence to all PepsiCo employees and let them understand how well-capitalized the new controller of the company is.

Even at $1 it's definitely a lot. In fact, companies with more than 1 million US dollars can already become large companies, and even relying on this 1 million US dollars to get out of the economic crisis is not a problem at all.

The final point is to allow Pepsi-Cola to have sufficient marketing funds. Although the quality of the product itself is also very important, if it does not undergo large-scale marketing, more people will not know the Pepsi brand.

If you want this beverage company to become a giant in the beverage industry, you must continue to advertise Pepsi-Cola and increase Pepsi-Cola's popularity.

Although the funds were handed over to Prado Ham, the manager of Pepsi-Cola Company, Frank had no worries that the funds would be embezzled by Pra Do Ham.

First of all, PepsiCo reports its financial statements every year, and you can still see if there are any financial problems.

Secondly, if Pradoham wants to run away with the money, it depends on whether the Australasian intelligence agency agrees.

One million US dollars is not a small sum of money. Before Pradoham's loyalty is ensured, he will be subject to certain surveillance to ensure that he will not run away with the money.

1. Arthur soon received acquisition information from across the ocean.

In just three or four days, intelligence personnel spent US$20 million in funds and acquired as many companies as the amount of approximately US$30,000.

Although this amount of money does not seem to be much, the U.S. stock market has already fallen to the bottom. These companies, with an average market capitalization of just over thirty thousand dollars, were generally large companies with a market capitalization of over one hundred thousand dollars or even hundreds of thousands of dollars before the economic crisis.

If intelligence personnel had not adhered to the principle of giving priority to the acquisition of large and medium-sized enterprises, I am afraid that the number of enterprises acquired now would be even greater.

Because there are still a large number of companies in the U.S. market with market values โ€‹โ€‹ranging from several thousand to tens of thousands of dollars that are on the verge of bankruptcy or have already gone bankrupt. The acquisition of these companies requires almost no cost, and one can acquire such a company for a few thousand dollars.

Looking at some of the famous companies in the acquisition list, Arthur was very satisfied with this acquisition plan.

Although the acquisition also suffered some setbacks, for example, other companies or forces competed with Australasia for acquisitions, resulting in some companies that Arthur was optimistic about being acquired first, etc.

But after all, those forces and companies have not opened their eyes. They do not know which companies will develop well in the future market. They will only acquire companies that they think have potential.

Arthur Du was acquired in a few days and was still satisfied. If we look at the value before the economic crisis, the value is very likely to be around hundreds of millions of dollars. Now it is completely profitable to get it for only 20 million US dollars.

And the US$20 million is not entirely the money to acquire the company, some of it is used for the development of the company.

In the acquisition of companies, industrial companies such as automobile companies, oil companies, beverage companies, agricultural products companies, etc. are the main targets of acquisitions in Australasia.

The United States has agriculture and animal husbandry, light industry and heavy industry, as well as various grain products, chemicals, etc.

According to the current exchange ratio between US dollars and Australian dollars, the value of 20 million US dollars is equivalent to 8 million Australian dollars, which is not a lot of expenditure for Arthur.

There are still tens of thousands of companies in the U.S. market that are on the verge of bankruptcy or have already gone bankrupt, and these companies are all waiting for relief from Arthur's funds.

In order for Americans to have a stable job, Arthur also invested money and asked Director Batty to order the intelligence personnel to acquire a large number of American companies at all costs, and the working capital also expanded to 100 million US dollars.

With Arthur's strong financial support, many intelligence agents once again disguised themselves and made a large number of acquisitions of companies scattered throughout the United States.

The new round of acquisition targets has joined the aviation industry, machinery manufacturing, aircraft, military industry, shipbuilding and steel companies, and has a strong tendency to directly monopolize American industry.

Among the many acquisition targets, the already well-known Boeing Company has become the first choice target in terms of aircraft.

Speaking of Boeing, the first thing that comes to mind should be Boeing's famous series of civil aircraft.

But in fact, Boeing is also a military aircraft manufacturer and has made good achievements in both military and civilian aircraft.

The Boeing Company was founded by the famous William Edward Boeing.

Seeing William Edward Boeing actually makes it clear that the origin of Boeing's name is William Edward's surname.

At present, Boeing's main industry is still in the field of military aircraft. In terms of civilian aircraft, it has only briefly touched on transport aircraft, and it has not yet been involved in civilian passenger aircraft.

But this does not cover up Arthur's desire to acquire Boeing. This is not to say how powerful the current Boeing company is, but if the United States loses one Boeing company, it will weaken a little bit of the United States' power in aircraft.

Because William Edward Boeing was of German descent, the Royal Security Intelligence Service cleverly sent Scott Kostilde, who was also of German descent, as the acquirer.

At Boeing's headquarters, Scott successfully met William Edward Boeing, the leader of Boeing.

This famous aircraft designer is actually only 46 years old.

But in the original history, the United States split Boeing into three companies during the Great Depression, and William Edward Boeing retired directly after the company was split.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Boeing." Scott took the lead in extending his hand and said with a smile to William Edward Boeing, who came to meet him in person.

"Me too, Mr. Scott." William Edward Boeing nodded first, and then went directly to the topic, saying with a little meaning: "Mr. Scott's purchases in the United States have been in the news. Nothing else. Just because you have given so many Americans the chance to work again, you are a friend to the Americans."

Scott was not embarrassed that William Edward Boeing directly stated his intention. Instead, he pretended to be very honored and replied with a smile: "So it seems that Mr. Boeing is not opposed to my acquisition?"

Hearing what Scott said, William Edward Boeing did not respond directly, but was silent for a while, sighed, and then said helplessly: "If it was before this damn economic crisis broke out, then I I definitely donโ€™t want the company to be acquired. But now, even those workers canโ€™t be paid, and itโ€™s time for Boeing to make changes.โ€

William Edward Boeing is still very optimistic about the upcoming changes at Boeing, which is why he retired honorably immediately after the company was split up.

After all, no matter what, Boeing has allowed him to make enough money, and there is no problem in becoming a rich man.

"Thank you Mr. Boeing for your importance to us. Please rest assured that after we acquire Boeing, you can still have control of Boeing if you wish. Of course, as a sign of sincerity, you can retain 5% of Boeing's shares, And seeing firsthand how Boeing has grown,โ€ Scott said with a laugh.

Since William Edward Boeing does not object to his hard work being acquired, the next thing will be much easier to handle.

Giving shares to Boeing, acquiring Boeing and moving the headquarters to Australasia are Scott's next tasks.

"But, Mr. Scott, I have to remind you. Boeing's current market value is as high as 5 million US dollars. Are you sure you have enough funds to acquire it?" Si, who looked confident, as if the acquisition of Boeing was a foregone conclusion. Kurt, William Edward Boeing is a little curious. Is the capital behind him really that strong?

"You don't have to worry about the funding situation, Mr. Boeing." Scott said with a smile: "After acquiring your company, we can inject an additional US$2 million into your company as research and development funds to help you research monoplane technology.

We have only one request, and that is that Boeing's technology must not be transferred or sold to outsiders without permission, and finished aircraft or parts must not be sold to any individual or force without permission.

Moreover, we want to move Boeing's headquarters to a more suitable place that will be more suitable for Boeing's development. "
