Chapter 1146 Capital Market
However, Lan Baolin had just stopped in front of the booth of the Mainland Transportation Group, and the president of the Mainland Transportation Group immediately stood up.
Tian Guorang was very excited. He was a little person who could understand the Lan Baolin investment plan and recognized this idea. The reason for this is that the Mainland Transportation Group has a history of five years, has experienced too many ups and downs, has experienced several twists and turns in Shang Dynasty, is also familiar with the capital operation method of Shang Dynasty, and is even more looking forward to such capital injection.
Lan Baolin also made the point straight: "I wonder if Mr. Tian welcomes me?"
"Welcome, of course! Come and take out the latest and best spiritual tea."
While asking the secretary to prepare tea, Tian Guorang personally invited Lan Baolin to his seat.
Facing Tian Guorang, Lan Baolin was very direct and did not need to explain what investment banking is like before, so he went straight to the point: "Mr. Tian, I want to hear your summary of your views, outlook, and shortcomings of the Mainland Transportation Group. I wonder if it is possible?"
"Of course there is no problem." Tian Guorang talked: "At present, I value mainland transportation more.
There are three main modes of transportation in Shangguo now: land transportation, water transportation, and air transportation. Among them, land transportation costs are higher than water transportation costs, but far lower than aviation, and they are more flexible. Most of the transportation is still land transportation.
Water and air transport are indispensable for land transport.
Without land transportation, water transportation and air transportation, it cannot operate effectively; but without water transportation and air transportation, land transportation can still exist alone.
Therefore, land transportation is the core of transportation.
Secondly, we are not a fan of water and air transport. In fact, Continental also has this business, which is an indispensable and necessary component.
However, with the emergence and popularization of teleportation arrays, land transportation will develop in a longer term. Especially at this stage, the teleportation arrays are generally small and can only pass through vehicles; so I concluded that in the foreseeable future, that is, in the next 30 years, land transportation will still be the mainstream mode of transportation.
Of course, land transportation also has its disadvantages. Compared with ship transportation, the carrying capacity is too small; compared with aircraft, the speed is too slow.
I expect that if storage technology is currently developing at the moment, the cost price of air transport may be lower than that of land transport in 30 years. Because air transport does not require the construction of a large number of road networks."
"Then, will land transportation be eliminated?" Lan Baolin asked.
"No, never! People's travel, life, etc. are still inseparable from land transportation.
In addition, there is another big end to land transportation, which is railways. If a large number of storage technologies are added in the future, coupled with the transmission array, it may be a better mode of transportation."
"So what will happen in terms of transportation in the future?"
"Ships are large in shape and slow in speed, and will gradually form moving cities. Aircraft will occupy half of the land. However, ground transportation methods are still irreplaceable. The teleportation array will be promoted and become the main link connecting all parts of the Immortal Realm.
The fairyland will also become relatively smaller, and there may be no barriers everywhere. The teleportation array will make the entire fairyland a whole.
The future rule of state will depend on transportation.”
Lan Baolin closed his eyes and thought for a long time, and said again: "This development direction may be correct, but how can the Continental Group maintain its advantage in such a change?"
"We have established our own technical research and development team. The future society is a technology society. We have begun to study teleportation array technology and established a common research laboratory with Spark University. Now, we have obtained more than 30 technical authorizations from the Brilliant Star Group and applied for more than 40 valid patents."
"Valid patent?" Lan Baolin tapped the back of the chair with his finger. "Can I take a look at the brief documents of these patents?"
"It has been published in the book, of course." Tian Guorang took out a piece of information from the storage ring and sent it to him.
Lan Baolin looked through for a while and asked again: "Mr. Tian thinks, is it feasible if you are asked to extend the transportation range to the sanctuary now?"
"Our group is discussing this plan. The core purpose of this plan is to maintain and stick to the existing market, explore markets outside Yingzhou, and finally form an internal and external attack, and take over Yingzhou's transportation market in one fell swoop."
"If the final goal is achieved, Mr. Tian can calculate how much money is needed?"
"A total of about 200 billion taels of gold!"
Lan Baolin stood up: "Mr. Lan, after the exhibition, if there is time, I hope we can find some time to have a good talk."
"Of course!" Tian Guorang sent Lan Baolin away enthusiastically.
As soon as Lan Baolin left, two other partners of the Mainland Transportation Group, Qiao Liwen and Sima Xuan, came over. Qiao Liwen took the lead in speaking: "Brother Tian, are you going to accept Lan Baolin's investment? How much money can he take?"
"Why not!" Tian Guorang smiled slightly, "Lan Baolin's investment plan has one advantage compared to bank loans, that is, there is no need to repay the loan on time! As for how much money Lan Baolin can take out, it doesn't matter. If you can take out a point, you can relieve our pressure a little.
Of course, we have to discuss the specifics in the long term.
…………
Here, Lan Baolin continues to explore his goals. Lan Baolin's purpose is very clear. Those who have no potential, at least in Lan Baolin's view, certainly don't need to be considered. Also, those with good development and sufficient financial strength, some old groups will basically not consider them.
Lan Baolin knew one thing about the mainland transportation group I just talked about - they met the third point of the wise king's ventilation, the huge logistics network of the Panxian Realm, and the mainland transportation group is quite ambitious, but it is extremely lacking in funds.
At this moment, Lan Baolin was like a wolf, looking for its prey.
Suddenly, another company came into Lan Baolin's eyes. It was a small company that was established less than two years ago, but it was also founded by two graduates of Spark University - Feitian Group.
Feitian Group's purpose was to directly target Tianwaitian Space. Their first step was to study rocket technology, related exploration technology, and communication technology.
After making simple and polite decisions, Lan Baolin went straight to the topic: "Now, both in the country and Jiuchongtian Group have already conducted research on aerospace, and have achieved considerable achievements. Isn't it too late for you to enter this industry at this time?"
Hao Changjun, president of Feitian Group, said confidently: "It's different. We are studying a completely recyclable space equipment. The purpose is not to make people ascend, but to take people to the sky to understand and practice.
Therefore, our goal is to reduce the cost price to 100 million taels of gold and serve the vast number of practitioners.
Therefore, our philosophy is different from that of the country and Jiuchongtian Group.
In terms of the country, we focus on national defense, etc., Jiuchongtian Group is chasing the country's footsteps. However, we have been serving the vast number of cultivators from the very beginning.
Moreover, in the research on recyclable spacecraft, we have achieved good results and applied for hundreds of practical patents."
"It's a lot of investment in researching space equipment. How much is your total fund now?"
"20 million taels of gold, that is, 200 million yuan. We borrowed loans from the bank with patents," said Hao Changjun. When he said this, he was proud and stressed.
Lan Baolin learned a little more and continued to ask: "But in my opinion, 20 million is just a drop in the bucket. The country has developed aerospace technology and obtained the starting funds by selling ascension places. The starting funds are tens of billions of taels of gold."
"The only way we have now is to study patents and then continue to mortgage them with patents." Hao Changjun was full of helplessness when he said this.
Lan Baolin learned a little more and finally said: "This industrial expo lasts up to half a month. If you can send a development plan within three days, I will consider injecting capital into you. What do you think?"
"Three days?" Hao Changjun and several partners looked at each other. Three days were too short.
"Then let's go for two days. Tomorrow night, I'll wait for you in the office of Green Forest Investment Bank." Lan Baolin smiled slightly and said goodbye.
Tomorrow night, it will take one day and a half! Hao Changjun and others have the urge to curse for a while.
Chapter completed!
