Chapter 230 Shocked the big boss
"They can also go? If you show off the tens of thousands of armed forces in Cuba, who would dare to go?" Edith Rockefeller pointed out the hypocritical nature of Sheffield. She showed off her armed forces and immediately left the country. Isn't it a kind of demonstration?
Many large companies also have some core forces to help clear obstacles for business expansion, but there are no companies like these in the south that hand over all their power to the joint company for unified command, and the scale is still so large.
There are two warships of several thousand tons, which is beyond the armament of other companies.
By sending these private weapons abroad, Sheffield could pat his butt and go abroad to develop his career. Who would dare to follow suit and go abroad to become a competitor? Edith Rockefeller felt that she would not dare anyway.
"Then you can't blame me. We are all in a normal competitive relationship, and there must be a focus on the industry." Sheffield said as if this matter had nothing to do with him, "We farmers need someone to manage the land, of course.
A lot of people help take care of it. It’s so dangerous abroad, so isn’t it normal to carry a few guns?”
And in this matter, no company can say that it is out of touch with the masses, especially Standard Oil. In another history, the Texas oil fields were discovered, causing chaos in Texas in a short period of time, forcing
The Texas Guard is dispatched and the state government declares martial law. Who is doing this? Who has the ability to do something in the oil field?
That is to say, large companies at the same level can still maintain affection for each other. If you switch to companies with unequal status, you will know what monopoly imperialism looks like.
This kind of thing cannot be said to be regretful. It should be exposed to deter those with ulterior motives. The result is still very good. It has successfully made the United Company a critical step in internationalization and at the same time snatched nearly half of the share. If not
There is no achievement in the United Shipbuilding Industry Company, and this ratio can be higher.
Internationalization is very important. Eggs cannot be put in one basket. Sheffield has not yet had the idea of treason. But sooner or later the sword of the antitrust bill will fall, because there is a monopoly on the surface, even if the citizens of the United States are such idiots,
It can also be seen that it is unfair. Whether it can successfully withstand antitrust laws by then will not be a matter for Standard Oil as a company.
Now is the best time to merge the industry, and take advantage of now to expand your own strength as much as possible. Now it is the first time that the United Company has completely gained the upper hand against the DuPont Consortium, but this advantage is still not sure. If you want to
This advantage was completely consolidated, and the merger with the RAND Corporation was inevitable.
By eating up the third largest company in the field of gunpowder, the United Company will completely suppress the DuPont Consortium in this field. Sheffield, whose value has been rising, has started the first round of mergers and acquisitions after returning to China, and at the same time, he stayed in Chicago to accompany Iraq.
Dice Rockefeller.
Although this woman is a little older than him, she is not a peerless beauty. The label that most arouses the desire to conquer is that she is Rockefeller's daughter and the younger Rockefeller's sister. But this is enough. How many people want to
After twenty years of hard work and no chance, Sheffield also chose not to work hard and took a shortcut.
When talking about how Edith Rockefeller dared to give birth to a child directly, despite the pressure from her family, Sheffield had nothing to say. The only thing she wanted to say was, what does little Rockefeller think now, "I have been thinking about it these past few days,
Does John know who this child is?"
"I can't control who he guessed, but I didn't say anything." Edith Rockefeller stretched her explosive figure and said nonchalantly, "He can tell anyone else, but he can't interfere with my affairs."
She has character! Sheffield secretly gave a thumbs up. This problem child of the Rockefeller family is so speechless, but this does not make him feel at ease. The younger Rockefeller should be able to guess what Edith Rockefeller meant.
The person who is his brother-in-law is himself.
"I did it several times a night, but now I know I regret it." Edith Rockefeller said with a sigh, "What's so scary? You are not an ordinary citizen. You are saying that I don't recognize it. Who can do anything?"
While talking, Edith Rockefeller answered the phone, "Hello, okay, got it!"
"Representatives from the RAND Corporation have arrived in Chicago. Do you need me to accompany you?" Edith Rockefeller put down the phone and asked.
"No need, I always have the illusion of being protected by having you help me." Sheffield laughed at himself, "If it weren't for my family being pretty good, others would really think you were supporting me."
"If your family is not good, how can I know you? You can't see me at all." Edith Rockefeller opened the closet, looked for a piece of clothing, and asked Sheffield to try it on. Finally, she felt satisfied and let him out.
The communication with the Rand Corporation was very candid. In fact, this question is a true or false question. Don’t think that the true or false question is very simple. No one knows what people are thinking before the final result comes out. Who can’t?
The butt determines the head.
So the Rand Corporation expressed its gratitude to Sheffield United for taking it seriously, and then changed the subject and started talking about him. This was not surprising at all. No one likes to make a wedding dress for someone else in vain.
On this point, Sheffield remained patient enough. From patents to company strength, he said that apart from the United Company and the DuPont Consortium, the RAND Corporation was the weakest, had the lowest profits, and also controlled the fewest patent licenses.
.
Military explosives still cannot compete with DuPont, and the civilian field is also squeezed by the two companies. Once a price war occurs, the gains outweigh the losses. Moreover, Sheffield does not pursue 100% control in mergers and acquisitions, and he is not that kind of person who does not give others a way to survive.
Mergers have always pursued simple holdings and left room for mergers.
And after the merger, the new Sheffield Rand Company will become the largest gunpowder manufacturer in the United States, both in the military and civilian fields. The combined strength of the two companies has steadily exceeded that of the DuPont Consortium.
This will change the domestic gunpowder landscape. The new company will have greater strength and image, and will be able to stay strong. It may also be able to vigorously expand new business, which is a good thing for both parties.
"We need to carefully consider it. After all, there are many shareholders whose interests are involved." A representative of the Rand Corporation said that this matter needs to be considered to balance the interests of all major shareholders.
"I don't object to this, but I believe that most shareholders are sensible and can understand the stakes involved. For every company with a scale of more than one million US dollars on the market, none of their owners is an idiot." Xie
Field smiled and complimented, expressing that he was looking forward to the good news.
Originally, this was a good thing for both parties. Sheffield also waited for the other party to discuss it, which was probably just a way to raise the price.
But this matter is not over yet. For some unknown reason, the news that Sheffield wanted to merge with Rand Corporation leaked out. Rand Corporation's stock price rose in response. Although Sheffield felt amused that Rand Corporation revealed the news and hurt its performance, he still felt that
It was also a normal means of exerting pressure, and I didn't get angry because of it.
But the next newspaper changed the normal merger of two companies. The front page of Le Monde that day was like this: "The alliance of arms dealers, the new company that sells death!" Half of the newspaper was full of big words.
The title and the subtitle read: "The arms company that has caused millions of deaths is growing again...". I have to say that after seeing such a title and accompanying pictures, people in Sheffield now want to buy a copy.
"As the largest war criminal traitor in the United States, after causing numerous murders overseas, the first thing he did when he returned to the country was to expand his empire of death. Now this culprit has his sights on the Rand Corporation."
The newspaper expressed its hatred for Sheffield's deep involvement in the war. It also stated that according to internal information, Sheffield had a mental illness and had unclear relationships with many women, including one that was unimaginable.
The woman has given birth to a child for him.
"This bastard, does he know what the consequences will be if he dares to write like this?" Sheffield took the newspaper handed over by Jesla angrily. He looked at the name of the newspaper and cursed, "Again.
This Irish newspaper writes sexy news every day."
William Hearst, the ancestor of the later US Department of Shock, is now a newspaper giant in the United States. He and another Joseph Pulitzer, and Sheffield's newspaper media, currently dominate the United States.
bottom of form
In later generations, there will be Pulitzer Prizes to commend freedom of speech, but in this era, these two people have no lower limit for pronouns. They use real tidbits, scandals, crime news and fabricated news to completely replace the content that a newspaper should report. The love of later generations.
The title shocked the bosses in the department and called these two people ancestors.
Forget it if it was something else. The problem is that Sheffield acted with a guilty conscience. Of course he knew that the news written about him above was either made up or was about him and Edith Rockefeller.
"Originally I didn't want to deal with them, I wanted to do my own business first, but now I have to show them how powerful they are!" Sheffield was furious, scratching his scalp and feeling angry, not knowing who to vent to.
"Boss, I'm going to kill them!" As soon as Jesra saw Sheffield so angry, he immediately expressed that he wanted to solve this problem by getting rid of the person with the problem.
"Of course the excrement workers in the newspapers and media are afraid of death, but if they don't get it right, their influence will be huge. Therefore, when major companies are harassed, they will not respond as long as it is not excessive. Of course, this matter cannot be settled like this, but there are other things.
