Chapter 811 They did agree
Three days later, Steve and his group of seven arrived in Tanzania on a special plane, and then took a helicopter to the port.
King Joseph brought his men to greet them at the port.
"Mr. Steve, Mr. Wilson... Welcome everyone. Please follow me aboard and head to the Hunter School."
Steve and the other seven had no objection and boarded a luxury yacht, sailing towards the Hunter School.
A huge humming sound of helicopters was heard, and five black dots appeared on the sea level in the east. When they flew closer, it was clear that they were five armed helicopters fully loaded with ammunition.
This was the escort from the Hunter School. After flying over the yacht from both sides, they completed adjustments and continued to maintain formation.
Then, two frigates came riding the wind and waves, protecting the yacht in the middle, one on the left and one on the right, also as an escort.
"Wow, the Hunter School really lives up to its reputation!" Steve exclaimed in admiration, "They actually have such strength."
This was in Africa, in 1996.
Many countries don’t even have a single attack helicopter, but here there are five, as well as frigates.
This kind of military strength is nothing to a big country, but in Africa at this time, it is enough to overthrow the regimes of many countries.
"Thank you Hunter School, thank you Principal Del." Steve expressed his gratitude sincerely.
"Mr. Steve, this is what we should do," King Joseph said. "From the moment you board the ship, your safety will be the sole responsibility of the school."
"That's great. This makes me look forward to it more and more, haha."
“…”
They also brought guards, and the boat followed behind.
But the fanfare was not big, because people who reached Steve's level usually traveled in a low-key manner and never with a big show.
If you make a big show, you will expose yourself.
Be as low-key as possible, also for safety reasons.
This is called a secret trip for a big shot. The security is often not that tight, but the route planning must be very thorough.
After sailing for dozens of minutes, they arrived at the Hunter School. Steve and his group landed on the island and were warmly welcomed by General Del.
Then we walked around, took a look around, visited the training, and looked at the school's various hardware and software facilities.
Lei Zhen was halfway up the mountain, concentrating on training the dog.
He wanted to train Lei Gouzi before the students graduated. By then, Lei Gouzi would have become an adult dog, and his physical strength and energy would have doubled.
Catch up and participate in actual combat, and participate more times.
After all, all training must be tested in actual combat, otherwise no matter how well you train, it will be useless.
In the office, General Del and Prince George asked Steve and his group to sit down and started a pleasant conversation.
"Principal Del, your Hunter School is truly amazing. The facilities are very complete. I believe it will flourish in the near future."
Steve's face was full of surprise and he was not stingy with his praise.
The other six people also nodded, expressing their satisfaction with the Hunter School.
“The equipment and training model are first-rate. It’s truly a dream training base.”
"Excuse me, your school is truly extremely professional and second to none in the world."
"I've seen some mercenary organizations' training bases before. Compared to this place, they're just slums..."
They received nothing but praise, demonstrating their impeccable satisfaction with the Hunter School.
Satisfaction represents investment intention.
But General Del and Prince George just listened. Although they were not good businessmen, they knew to look for flaws when buying things.
Only in this way can we effectively lower prices, and this is the same in every corner of the world.
"Mr. Steve, you're too kind. Our school is just a baby that hasn't grown up yet. There is still a lot that needs improvement," General Del said modestly.
"No, no, no, this is the most complete one I've ever seen." Steve waved his hand and said, "Actually, we've been looking for investment projects in recent years, but almost none of them have been satisfactory."
"Some of them have poor equipment, some lack professionalism, and many places look like a mob at first glance."
"You are too picky. With your worth, there are only a few in the world." General Del said with a smile, "It is an honor for us to have the Hunter School catch your eye."
“…”
The next part was the business promotion session. Steve and his team praised the Hunter School, and General Del and Prince George praised these guys highly.
Only after both parties are satisfied and feel comfortable will they start bargaining.
…
In the evening, the Hunter School escorted Steve and his group back to the port, marking the perfect end of the trip.
The school then held another meeting.
"Don't say anything. Let me guess." Lei Zhen took a puff of his cigarette and said with a smile, "They agreed, right?"
"Nothing can be hidden from you. They did agree to buy a 4% stake in the school for $2 billion."
General Del took out a letter of intent and pushed it over.
"This is a letter of intent. They've put forward a lot of conditions. Would you like to take a look?"
“Perhaps this acquisition will actually be successful because the terms are very clear, clearly defining responsibilities and obligations, and also clearly defining…”
Under everyone's gaze, Lei Zhen tore up the letter of intent with disdain.
"Who the hell is stupid enough to spend so much money to acquire a 4% stake? Even if the conditions offered are harsh, it's not worth it."
"There's nothing wrong with making money, and there's nothing wrong with being a profiteer, but if the difference between the two is too big, then there's a problem."
Making money is indeed a good thing. Some of the conditions in this letter of intent are indeed very harsh, and can be regarded as requirements for acquiring shares at a high price.
General Del is not ruthless enough, but he is not evil enough, and he does not understand business negotiations.
But Steve and his colleagues are all veterans. Although they may not be able to create business rules, they know how to control them.
"That's why I didn't meet them. Because once I sat down with them, I'd be tempted too." Lei Zhen laughed, "4% of the shares, $2 billion, and a direct return on investment. Who wouldn't be tempted? Haha."
This is a comfort to General Del. He is a smart man, but he has his own specialties.
"Did Steve and the others clearly specify additional value?" Lei Zhen asked. "For example, requirements for the students' practical training phase, as well as requirements for training during their downtime? And do you think it's okay to accept such a demanding requirement based on the price?"
General Del shrugged his shoulders, Prince George spread his hands, one bit a cigar, the other poured a glass of red wine, and closed his mouth.
I can’t communicate with Shenhua anymore. He is not here, but I can guess everything.
"This is just a small dessert. The main course will be served soon." Lei Zhen said, "Prepare for battle. We can negotiate with them after we win. If we lose, we will have no chance, so it's time to prepare for war."
He looked at Andre, asking for his opinion.
To be precise, it depends on the other party's attitude, because General Del has no way out, but Andre does.
"Fortune and honor are sought through risk. If you win, you can just lie back and count your money. If you lose, it's just like working a few jobs." Andre said with a smile, "But I have a small request. If you win, can you sell me 4% of the original shares?"
"Hahaha, no need to win, I'll give it to you now!" Lei Zhen laughed.
He liked greedy people, and even more so ambitious people, and there was no doubt that Andre was such a person.
It’s a great deal to make a small investment for a big return.
