Chapter 298: Santa or robber

Seattle, Washington.
Gulfstream 100 is parked on a private runway, and next to the runway is United Airlines’ safety director, Richard.
"My Excellency Marquis Li, welcome to Seattle." Richard looked at the plane in front of him, curious about the interior decoration.
"Want to see it?" Li Zitao got off the plane, indicating that he could visit at will.
"Thank you very much." Richard couldn't wait to get on the plane.
The first thing that catches your eyes is the beautiful mahogany decoration, the wine-red carpet on the ground, and the silver-gray mats can be seen everywhere.
The seat is sewed in real leather, and the angle is adjusted at a 45-degree angle to make people feel more comfortable when resting.
Seat headrests, blankets, slippers prepared on the floor, closed luggage rack above, rounded sofa, coffee table fixed on the floor.
Bar counter, various fixed brackets, and the innermost ‘bedroom? ? ? ’
"It's completely incomparable." Richard was frustrated inwardly.
The details alone made Richard feel disgusted by the company's C-31.
It is like a crafted royal flying carriage, and compared to it, the C-31 is like a rough civilian public carriage.
After visiting the plane, on the way to the headquarters, Richard behaved quietly, thinking about how to communicate what he saw to the president, Robert.
At the shareholders meeting of United Airlines, there were three parties, the president Robert, the major shareholder Li Zitao, and 12 employee equity representatives.
United Airlines is the company with the most employees in the world.
45% of its shares are in the hands of employees, in exchange for employees giving up high demands for benefits and salary standards.
Speaking of which, Li Zitao, who holds 5.6% of the shares, is also regarded as the second largest shareholder of United Airlines.
Li Zitao rarely spoke at the conference. The theme has been around the stock market decline, employee benefits fell sharply, and there was no sufficient return.
On the issue of dividends, United Airlines has stopped paying dividends since the Great Depression, which was unanimously protested by employees.
Robert is also constantly appeasing employee representatives, repeatedly emphasizing that the company's operations are very good, the value of stocks, and future prospects.
Regarding the issue of dividends, Robert also stated that he will restart as soon as possible to ensure the normal operation of the company.
"If you don't mind, do I have an opinion to listen to?" Li Zitao, who acts as an audience, knocked on the table and smiled at both parties.
The employee equity representatives looked at each other and finally nodded: "Your Excellency, please say."
"I would like to buy all of your stock at a price of $15. Of course, the premise is that you want to sell."
Li Zitao tapped his fingers gently on the table, continuing regardless of Robert’s unsightly look;
I agree with Mr. Robert that United Airlines is an excellent company, and its future is destined to be brilliant,
But everything has its two sides, whether you want to get a full return at one time, or choose the future, this requires your own decision. "
The highest market value of United Airlines reached 65 US dollars per share, but now it has fallen to 10 cents per share, just like waste paper.
Fifteen dollars per share is a reasonable price for both parties.
Li Zitao did not plan to take advantage of the fire, but he was a friend of the Workers Guild.
How can America's most conscientious Chinese wealthy and conscientious entrepreneurs do such a despicable thing.
"We need to discuss this with other people." The employee representatives left with some emotion.
"Your Excellency Charlie, you are destroying the company's development direction and the close connection between employees." Robert's complexion is ugly, which is not the same as he expected.
Inviting Li Zitao to attend the shareholders' meeting in person is to promote cooperation in the field of advanced aviation services.
Now, he is prying United Airlines home.
The reason why United Airlines can retain their employees is because they have a lot of equity in their hands.
These stakes will strengthen their sense of identity and pride, and allow them to have an unbreakable connection with United Airlines.
Robert has already guessed the future situation. Once a large amount of equity is acquired by Li Zitao, the employees who sell the equity will become the prey of various airlines.
Dig corners, the first thing to do is his American aerospace.
"Robert, how can I do this! I'm just helping employees." Li Zitao said innocently.
"Damn help, you greedy yellow devil." Robert yelled in his heart.
If he knew what Robert was thinking at the moment, he would definitely want to have a drink with him, that's how he intended.
Acquire their stocks, cut off the connection between the two, and then use the high salary to dig all these excellent aviation personnel under their own hands.
Aerospace is now short of people everywhere. They also need to open routes, ground handling, aeronautics, and contract services, all of which require a lot of talent.
"Your Excellency, you are violating the basic principles of business." Robert will not be in a mood to talk about any cooperation yet.
Otherwise, United Airlines will fall into the biggest trouble since its establishment, which will be the biggest crisis in the history of United Airlines.
Not to mention the new line of business, even the existing business will not be guaranteed.
"...It's an act of rudeness." Looking at the empty meeting room, Li Zitao showed his hands innocently and left the building alone.
...
...
"It seems that every time I am in charge of the negotiations, the end result is unhappy, do I look fierce?"
Back in Chicago, Li Zitao was basking in the sun on the lounge chair in the yard, and looked innocently at his fiancee beside him.
"You should learn to be satisfied." Adelaide flipped through the book, but couldn't help but pick up slightly.
She could imagine the mood of Mr. Robert, who thought it was Santa Claus with a gift.
Who knew that as soon as he entered the house, the other party transformed into a robber armed with a shotgun.
What's more, it's still his hard work, so please come back three or five times! ! !
"How is Paris?" Mr. Robert, who was quizzical and depressed, asked Li Zitao about her trip to Paris.
"Mr. Dior's design is very interesting. After meeting Elsa, their ideas collided with countless inspirations."
Adelaide put down the book and turned to look at him excitedly and said, "There are also those drawings, God, Dior and Elsa praised countless times,
They will therefore change the future of the fashion industry, and history will remember their names—"
Seeing the little star in the fiancee's eyes, Li Zitao could not help but tell her that the designers of the drawings were in front of you, come and worship me!
What made him unexpected was that his fiancée hugged him before dinner and said meaningfully, ‘Honey, you are really a genius. ’
