Chapter 1101 (1/2)

New York, the headquarters of westero company in midtown Manhattan.

Michael Jordan, chairman and CEO of Westinghouse Electric, was invited to arrive on time. He just waited a little in the reception room. Simon westero pushed the door in and quickly got up to greet each other: ”Hi, Simon, nice to meet you.”

”Hello, Mike,” Simon shook hands with a white executive with the same name as a legendary basketball star. They sat down on the sofa and said with a smile, ”I just heard that you are in New York, so I want to take the opportunity to talk.”

Girl a brought coffee in. Michael Jordan waited for a moment. When Alison left, he asked, ”Simon, what's the matter?”

Simon took a sip of the coffee Alison had just poured, leaned relaxed on the sofa and looked at the head of Westinghouse: ”Mike, the unit of Ukraine's Rovno nuclear power plant will be put into operation in the middle of this year. At the beginning, vestro system helped to lead the line and cooperate with Xiwu. Everyone was very happy, wasn't it?”

Michael Jordan nodded in agreement: ”of course.”

Two years ago, the construction of unit 4 of the Rovno nuclear power plant in Ukraine, through the series connection of all parties, the cost of the project that could have been completed by US $500 million directly doubled to US $1 billion, of which the oil and water can be imagined. Under the lead of the westero system, Westinghouse Electric has won the share of US $600 million, which can be said to be the biggest beneficiary.

Michael Jordan is not a fool. He has heard a lot of things during this period, so he can guess the purpose of westero's invitation. It's just that Michael Jordan, who is the leader of an old industrial giant, is not willing to take the initiative in the end. It depends on what westero hopes to do and what he plans to do.

Simon was not in a hurry, and then said, ”in addition, I also know that Westinghouse is in contact with the Chinese government on some power cooperation projects recently? Exactly? You know? I have a good relationship with the Chinese government. Maybe I can help?”

Michael Jordan smiles expectantly: ”Simon, if that's possible? That's great.”

”Well, actually, I also know that Westinghouse is planning to sell its power sector, including conventional power and nuclear power businesses. Now it is pursuing orders just to increase the bargaining chip when selling. Right?”

Michael Jordan couldn't take it easy this time. He was surprised.

After the acquisition of CBS? In order to further expand in the media field? Michael Jordan plans to transform Westinghouse thoroughly. Recently, he has had secret contact with Siemens in Germany and plans to sell its conventional power business. Westinghouse's leading nuclear power business will also be sold in the next few years.

There was no more than one person inside Westinghouse who knew about it? Michael Jordan never thought that Simon westrow knew about it.

Simon knows about it? It's mainly memories.

In the past history, Westinghouse's continuous sale of its core business in the late 1990s shocked the industry, so much so that Michael Jordan was satirized as a business spy planted in Westinghouse by Jack Welch, the head of General Electric. With the result known in advance, Simon can easily get more inside information by making a little inquiry according to the huge network of contacts mastered by westrow system at this time.

After a moment's hesitation, Michael Jordan finally stopped pretending to be a fool: ”Simon, I'm sorry that I didn't know about some of CBS's criticisms of igritte a few days ago.” After a pause, Jordan said, ”well, Simon, I'll fire all the people responsible for the news arrangement. Do you think that's ok?”

”Good, Mike, I like smart people who don't need too much nonsense to understand each other,” Simon nodded slightly, then changed the subject. ”But it's just a small thing. I hope you can do me another favor.”

”Say it, please?”

”Westinghouse ended all deposit and loan settlement business with Mellon financial group, and completely drew a clear line with it.”

When Michael Jordan heard this, he was not only shocked, but even cool.

The headquarters of Westinghouse Electric and Mellon finance are both in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The Mellon family and Westinghouse Electric have a long history of 100 years. In the Great Depression era, if not for the help of the Mellon family, Westinghouse Electric might not survive until now.

Let's not talk about these.

Simon westero mentions this at this time, which makes Michael Jordan feel that this young tycoon is planning to fight against the Mellon family. Moreover, he can be said to hit the snake seven inches accurately!

Many industries involved by the Mellon family at this time, such as Alcoa, Chevron, Warner Lambert and so on, are only limited to a single field. In addition, there are not many shares and their influence is limited. However, Mellon financial group's influence covers the whole of Pennsylvania and other surrounding areas. Once they lose control of Mellon's finance, the Mellon family's influence in the Federation will not be directly reduced by half.

In other words, Simon's intention to do so is the same idea that came into being when he returned from China a few days ago to read the information of the South Korean government on the bankruptcy of Hanbao steel.

Industry is the organ and finance is the blood.Simon intends to abolish the ”blood” of the Mellon family that can influence and control the regional economy around Pennsylvania. At this time, Michael Jordan was shocked and speechless for a moment, so he continued: ”Mike, this is nothing to Westinghouse. As long as you promise, I can immediately arrange a replacement bank to take over the business of Westinghouse, and there will be a good discount. This is one of them. In addition, I also know that Westinghouse's acquisition of CBS is just the beginning. In the next few years, you plan to completely transform Westinghouse into the media field. This is a good idea. It's depressing that Disney, paramount and Columbia are occupied by foreigners. If Westinghouse can take over in the future, it will be a good result. As long as you agree, I can promise to help Westinghouse integrate in the media field in the next few years. You know, it's hard to grow just TV or movies. The future of Hollywood is the world of diversified media giants. ”

Michael Jordan was shocked by the young people in front of him again. He forced himself to calm down his guilty heart and looked at the young people opposite him: ”Simon, the westrow system and the Mellon family should have no intersection. I don't understand why you do this?”

”If you want an answer,” Simon shrugged, ”it's personal.”

Simon has never been a person who likes to haggle over everything. Even when he is a man of two generations, there are few things in the world that can make him a little angry.
