Chapter 928 Return

Kravis is an old expert in leveraged buyouts. Back then, he made big purchases of the food and tobacco giant Nabisco, and also bought a bunch of large and small companies.

The barbarian at the gate of Wall Street, this title is not for nothing, but Kravis’s game-by-game record.

But even Kravis, who is bold and has been a barbarian many times, was surprised when Song Yang mentioned General Electric!

Putting down the wine glass, Kravis’ expression became serious, and he looked Song Yang up and down. He and Song Yang had worked together for a long time, and he had already figured out Song Yang’s character.

Looking at Song Yang’s expression, Kravis knew that Song Yang was really not joking with him, and Kravis couldn’t help feeling dizzy for a while.

“Song, General Electric is not so… easy to deal with!” Kravis said to Song Yang with a headache.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Now General Electric has encountered some small troubles, but it is still a giant. Even Kravis, hearing the name General Electric, feels a little bit numb. Welch will General Electric It was built too large and too bluffing.

Song Yang was not surprised when he heard what Kravis said. As a giant company that has always been the world’s largest market capitalization company, the companies acquired by General Electric are all in the thousands. In the past, only General Electric took the share of other companies. , who dares to fight for General Electric? !

However, it’s not rude to come and go. Before Immelt used his power to overwhelm others, he used General Electric to “help” ICQ to acquire a large group of companies such as NBC Group, Comcast Group, and Bronfman Group. Of course, The status of ICQ’s major shareholder was also taken away by Immelt.

Now that General Electric is in trouble, it is naturally time for Song Yang to “pay back” Immelt. He must “help” Immelt get General Electric through the difficulties. Back then, Immelt took away ICQ Now that Song Yang is helping General Electric to tide over the difficulties, he also collects a “small” interest, isn’t it too much? !

Laughed, Song Yang looked at Kravis and said, “No one can eat General Electric, at least not now, Welch made General Electric too powerful, but…

Now that General Electric is at its weakest in recent years, it is not impossible to take something from General Electric! ”

Kravis still had doubts when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, “Song, you want to take back the controlling stake in ICQ?!”

After thinking about it, Kravis feels that the relationship between Song Yang and Immelt is probably the controlling stake in ICQ. After all, Song Yang is the founder of ICQ, but now ICQ is left behind, and the Internet is in a downturn. , but my own broken copper and tiles are also my own, so I must take them back, right?

“It’s not just ICQ. Now that it’s done, it must not be done halfway. It’s better to finish offending people at once!”

Song Yang said calmly, Song Yang was obviously mentally prepared for offending Immelt and General Electric.

Since he has already been offended, it is better to offend him completely. Even if Song Yang is willing to stop, Immelt probably will not be grateful to Song Yang. It is better to cut a handful of General Electric’s leeks, anyway, he has already offended someone.

As for whether to worry about Immelt and General Electric’s revenge, that’s a matter for the future. Anyway, the two sides will be enemies in the future. If Immelt has the ability, he will find the place again and add some trouble to Song Yang. Even snatching away ICQ, Alcatel mobile phones, PayPal and the like, it is considered Immelt’s power.

On the contrary, as long as there is an opportunity, Song Yang will go up, and then cut a piece of fat from General Electric, such as the financial department, medical department, engine department, aerospace equipment, military industry department, etc., if there is a chance, Song Yang will go down. There will be no mercy in the slightest!

Kravis twitched his face, but after only thinking for a few seconds, Kravis nodded, willing to stand by Song Yang’s side to plan for General Electric.

Kravis has no choice. His KKR group is actually bound to Song Yang’s side. Even though there is no alliance agreement between the two sides, the outside world basically regards the KKR group as Song Yang’s thugs. Whether Kravis admits it or not.

One day in the future, if Song Yang is unlucky, life for Kravis and the KKR Group will not be much better, and those opponents will still clean up the KKR Group, no matter whether he does it or not.

Knowing that he can’t avoid it, Kravis might as well take the initiative to take the initiative. Kravis has done much more than Song Yang when it comes to offending people, and he is no worse than Immelt and the General Electric family. Although the opponent this time is really He is a big guy who can cut leeks, but will he stop because the leeks grow taller? !

When Welch walked into the General Electric headquarters office building again, he felt a sense of strangeness.

“President Welch!”

General Electric’s executives and employees, when they saw Welch, were somewhat surprised and inexplicable. Although they still respected Welch, the faint sense of alienation and a little Perfunctory, Welch can still clearly feel it.

Welch also understands the mentality of these people. He has indeed made great contributions to General Electric, but he has retired. The current General Electric belongs to Immelt, and Immelt is the one who can determine the status of every employee in General Electric. It’s not Welch who is the one who decides the fate of his career, stays, gets promoted, and raises his salary.

He sighed slightly in his heart. The reason why Welch didn’t want to retire and come here again was because he didn’t want to experience this huge sense of gap. He couldn’t help but want to regain his power, and in the end he made a fuss.

This is also one of the reasons why many top professional managers in America, such as Disney Emperor Eisner and the president of Sprint, are unwilling to retire even if they die of old age. Becoming a little old man that no one cares about, the gap is too great, and the body will collapse in a short time.

Immelt, who heard the news of Welch’s arrival, immediately rushed out with the executives. Facing Welch, Immelt still had the same look when he was under Welch, humble and refined. Erqi maintained a respectful look.

But Welch, looking at Immelt in front of him, felt a huge sense of strangeness and looked humble, but Welch heard that what Immelt did was not humble at all. Qi picked out the eight department heads who competed with Immelt for the head of GE, and now they have all run away. In the past year, GE’s executives and even the members of the board of directors have undergone earth-shaking changes. Variety.

Welch’s subordinates for many years have long since disappeared. Some have been transferred overseas to serve as supervisors, and some have been “retired” directly. In just over a year, Welch’s influence in General Electric has already been seen by the naked eye. Visible decline, in two or three years, Welch is estimated to become one of the historical terms of General Electric.

But for these, Welch also knew that he couldn’t blame Immelt. He even admired Immelt’s methods. After a few points, all the opponents who competed for the master were driven away.

You must know that the managers competing with Immelt are all top professional managers in America. Even if they left General Electric and went to other companies, they would still be the presidents. Welch thought, Immelt Immelt was able to keep those people around and help Immelt with things.

But Immelt obviously didn’t want to be so troublesome, so he chose a shortcut and kicked them all out, which allowed Immelt to quickly control the entire General Electric, but there were also some troubles, and the top talents of General Electric were not enough…

“Mr. Welch, why didn’t you inform me before you came, I should let General Electric hold a welcome ceremony for you this time, this is the treatment you deserve!”

Immelt made Welch a cup of coffee with his own hands. Everything seemed to be the same as before, but this time Immelt sat in the chair that belonged to the head of General Electric very naturally. Make room for Welch or something.

Welch saw this little move, but he just laughed and didn’t talk about anything else, or give Jiangshan comments on Immelt’s actions since he took office. Welch knew that it was meaningless.

Welch said directly, “I heard that General Electric has encountered some troubles recently!”
