Chapter 469 Acquisition from Water to Qucheng
"Which companies submitted bids?"
The acquisition of Provimet was a decision made by Cargill’s new CEO Gauri Page.
Changing CEOs is a common occurrence for Cargill, which has a long history. However, in recent years, Cargill has successively changed several CEOs.
Processing chicken in Russia and transporting soybean to Huaxia to provide a sweetener for Coca -Cola ...
Whether it is the number of agricultural products transactions or the industry scale, Cargill has made opponents dwarn.
But first it lost the Chinese soybean market, and then the local grain trade also suffered a heavy blow. Cargill's life was not easy.
Gauri wants to stay in this position for a few more years, so he wants to lead Cargill to make changes.
The field of animal nutrition is the growth direction of him and the management, and the acquisition of Paleweisi is the key part.
His assistant Jenny is a beautiful woman, wearing cool in summer, showing white skin.
When asked which companies were included, he smiled confidently, "Taiko, DSM, Quanwang Biotech, and the ultimate winner: Cargill."
"Cargaggi does not have an advantage, Jenny, our opponents are strong, but don't underestimate them."
"Is Disman and Taigao? They have too many business conflicts with Plevimi. If you don't want to lay off a large -scale layoff, you will not choose Disman and Taigao."
"I mean another."
"All the king creatures? Is this just a small company in China!"
"Is it small?"
Gao Li patted Jenny's exposed shoulders, and Jenny moved two steps calmly.
"You have just arrived, so it's normal to not know. The company behind Quanwang Biotech is very strong. Cargill lost China's soybean and corn markets all because of its parent company Jiahe."
"Can you still have a Cargan?"
“Cargill is naturally larger in scale, but to operate such a long-term business, it requires short-term financing to purchase corn and soybeans, and long-term investment to maintain refineries, pig farms, ports and ships. 20% of annual income % will also be distributed to shareholders as dividends
Cargaggi, as a private company, cannot raise funds by issuing stocks. It must also ensure cash flow, and to support the entire family model, forcing the board of directors to be cautious about each investment.
In some reasonable mergers and acquisitions, Cargaggia may be limited by funds.
Same thing this time.
Our offer is not advantageous. ”
Jenny knew Cargi's offer, US $ 2.14 billion, and there were a lot of premiums. This is a huge sum!
In order to persuade the sixth generation of the Kargil family, more than ten board meetings were held, and each board meeting was as lively as a shareholders' meeting.
“Even if Cargill does not have an advantage in terms of capital, the help it can bring to business is unmatched by other companies.”
“Maybe this is Cargill’s only advantage.”
They knew that King Biological and Palewita had cooperation, but he did not expect how much influence Kings had on Plevivi.
I do n’t know that Quanwang was watching Palevi two or three years ago.
About 20 kilometers in the northeast of Rotterdam, there is a small town: Hahada Town.
Gouda is best known for its Gouda cheese, which attracts many tourists every year.
Guo Yang and others came here for Provime's branch here.
The bidding for the merger has closed, and the opponents are all expected. Now we just need to wait for the results, and Guo Yang also takes advantage of this time to walk around.
In addition to being a cheese trading center, Haracan is also a large livestock breeding center.
Here, there is a Provimi premix R&D and production base, which is mainly responsible for the R&D and production of premixes for ruminants.
The base is built on the edge of the town, with blue sky and white clouds, green grass, windmills squeaking, and black and white cows grazing leisurely.
In the workshop, Guo Yang saw the Dutch premix production process. The principle is not complicated. Simply put, the raw materials are mixed together according to the formula.
The core is the recipe.
Secondly, there are raw materials, of which there are many types.
Natural plants and plant extracts are just one of the new feed additives. No pollution, no residue, and no antibiotic resistance are their biggest advantages.
The disadvantage is that the bottlenecks such as the effective ingredients and the use of dosage form need to be resolved.
But for the general manager of the branch, Olin, this is not a matter.
Quanwang’s plant extracts not only play a great role in traditional fields such as animal intestinal health, growth and development, reproductive genetics, and immunity.
The most exaggerated thing is the improvement in output and quality.
Even if it is an ordinary formula, as long as the additives of the king are added, it has excellent effects.
The cow ate it and said it was awesome!
Aolin expressed welcome to the arrival of Guo Yang and his entourage, and even convened all employees for a happy event.
Ren Fu is very familiar with these people, and this is not the first time Yu Qin has come.
But at this event, many people learned for the first time that Quanwang was bidding for Provimi with companies such as Taico and DSM.
"Is this true? Ren?"
In front of many people, Ren Fu nodded affirmatively, "Really."
There was an uproar in the crowd.
"Will we lay off a layoff?"
"I won't lose my job, and I don't want to leave Haoda."
"Maybe life will be better after being acquired by Quanwang! The competition in the past two years has been too fierce. We have no advantage when facing Taigao."
Some people are excited, but the uncertain changes make more people worried.
This should have been done by the follow -up public relations company, but when Guo Yang saw the right time, he stood with Yu Qin and Olympic to the center of the venue.
"Hi, guys, believe me, if the whole king acquisitions Paleweis, the existing staff and management pattern will not change greatly, and there will be no large -scale layoffs."
"Pulavime has broad professional knowledge, premix technology, and product portfolio."
"And Quanwang has the best natural plants and traditional Chinese medicine raw materials." "We need each other."
"The combination of Provimi's technology and Quanwang's additives will produce highly competitive products. By then, neither Taico nor DSM will be our opponents..."
In fact, Guo Yang is not good at speaking, but he only needs to stand up and tell the facts again.
Combined with the supply of raw materials in the past two years, the staff quickly calmed down.
Olympic also came out in time and said, "Yes, this will be a great cooperation!"
"Provimet will go better!"
The Netherlands is a country with high welfare. The same job requires fewer workers in the country, which puts great pressure on enterprises.
However, the European feed market is also large and profitable.
If you want to make money in Europe, you can avoid a lot of trouble.
It's worth it.
A small country also has the advantages of being a small country. The distance between cities is very close.
There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!
After the event, only an hour's drive, Guo Yang and others went to a hotel outside the University of Wakhonagen.
This is an ideal and quiet city.
Wageningen University is also recognized as the world's top agricultural and environmental science research institution.
Plant science, animal science, agricultural science, environmental science, food science and other disciplines are the world's first.
It is the most important scientific and technological support for Dutch agriculture.
Here, Guo Yang participated in two academic conferences and had some exchanges with teachers and students of the school.
It also publicized the achievements made by Jiahe, which brought a little shock to the school.
There are also international students from China on campus, including many students from Northwest A&F University, some of whom have received scholarships from Jiahe.
What Guo Yang showed is easy to verify.
Soon after, Jiahe's achievements in ecological governance spread on campus.
Well-meaning people rated him as a "warrior who conquered the desert and Gobi".
…
At the same time, Taico Group and DSM Group were also taking action, but their efforts did not satisfy Provimet.
At the board of directors, CEO Peter made a final explanation.
"Taigao is the second time to communicate with us, but regarding the overlapping business, they cannot give a clear answer."
"Disman is only interested in the premix business. They may sell some of the feed business after buying the entire company."
"Moreover, none of the three parties, including Cargill, gave a highest price."
"So, the directors, we tend to the whole king, this is the best choice!"
There are three competing companies and one upstream company that is a bit novice.
But Peter selected the ‘little white’ whole creature in the feed industry on behalf of the management.
The should be surprising, it seems a bit logical at this moment.
The 11 members of the board of directors chose the whole king.
Some do it because of the prospects, some do it because of the price, and some do it because of the social impact...
The results all pointed in the same direction.
When Guo Yang, who was investigating the European seed market, learned that the results were out, he was a little confused.
"Why so fast?"
"Because everything falls into place."
During the call, Yu Qin, who was staying in Rotterdam, was still excited and his lips seemed to be trembling.
It's two or three years!
From being unable to find a direction at the beginning, to becoming a supplier of Provimet and becoming integrated with its various business departments.
Among them, countless hardships and bitterness.
At the moment, Ren Fu left tears in excitement, and he was not feeling the same.
Guo Yang heard the choked voice on the other side of the phone and said with a smile: "This is just like a proposal. If I really want to marry you, you can propose successfully if you take out the ring after you are done in bed."
"Uh ... it seems that this is the reason, it's wrong."
"Don't worry about what's wrong, just celebrate today."
"Kiston, they are already hilarious."
"Okay, let's do this first."
In front of it is a good beety of beets, concentrated in continuous slices.
However, the area of sugar beet in the Netherlands is actually very small, about 2 million acres.
With these 2 million acres of sugar beet, the Netherlands can produce 900,000 tons of sugar every year, nearly 1,000 kilograms of sugar per acres, half of which is exported.
Excellent beet seeds are the key to success.
The Dutch Corporation is also the beet seed company after KWS, Germany.
After looking at the Dutch beet, Guo Yang had a spectrum about the seeds of beets that had been cultivated before.
What do you do?
With a trace of depression, Guo Yang rushed back to Rotterdam from Amsterdam.
There, the grand ceremony belonging to the whole king has begun.
