But after all, they don’t know the future. The sales volume of 15-20 million DreamPad units is just the sales volume released at the beginning of the first year of IPAD. By the time IPAD2 came, it could sell 20 million units in a quarter, almost all people

They were all frightened!

At this time in 2006, the IPHONE had not come out, and the ancestor of smart mobile terminals had become the DreamPad. Xiao Qi can say with certainty that most of the DreamPads manufactured in accordance with the technical standards of IPAD2 could never be worse than the IPAD. In fact

When it is released at the end of the year, he is determined to prepare 50 million to 80 million units a year.

Of course, when it comes to increasing parts orders, we have to wait until the advertising effects come out and find several well-known statistical companies to do calculations before we can roughly judge how much the increase will be.

If you increase the capacity in advance, you should also consider the issue of upgrading it after two years at most, and refuse to waste it.

Thoughts flashed by, Xiao Qi nodded, "Thank you for giving such a high evaluation, so what do you two gentlemen hope to get from coming to my place?"

"We are not a greedy investment bank. We are here just to get enough benefits for both of us." Newcastle said seriously, "We are willing to provide you, Mr. Xiao, with all the financial services you need."

His sanctimonious look made Jip sick: If I hadn't persuaded him, this guy would still be daydreaming!

Xiao Qi really didn't expect that they didn't come here to talk about shares.

In the boy's mind, the two major banks came together, and they definitely wanted to grab a piece of fat. They had to be greedy and asked for some kind of holding, buying more than 20% of the shares, etc. But he didn't expect that they actually said they were only providing services.

The tiger has become a vegetarian!?

It’s unrealistic!

Seeing Xiao Qi's doubts, Jip coughed lightly and said: "Mr. Xiao, although we all don't want to join in and enjoy this feast together, we also know your character, and maybe now is not the best time to invest.

, let’s not talk about this for now. Our two major banks are willing to provide you with assistance including loans, marketing support, tax assistance, etc., especially in Europe and the United States. Please believe that the strength of our two major banks is enough to help you avoid a lot of difficulties.

.”

"But we also have a request." Newcastle said seriously: "If one day Mr. Xiao wants to go public for financing, please be sure to entrust us to do the IPO. Even if it is private primary market financing, we hope to be the first to get it.

News, and more directional cooperation with you.”

Xiao Qi nodded and said unabashedly: "At first, I thought you two were here to buy shares. If that was the case, I would reject you two directly. DreamPad is my hard work and I will never tolerate others.

Come take a peek!”

Newcastle smiled slightly, but he admired Jabil in his heart. It seemed that Citibank did understand Xiao Qi better, and the Royal Bank of Scotland would have to work harder in this regard in the future.

"Since you two mentioned providing services, I also have some things to ask you for help with." Xiao Qi said with a smile, "It just so happens that the services you mentioned are exactly what I need! I hope we can have one.

Have a wonderful collaboration!”

"Of course, when has Citibank ever let you down, Mr. Xiao?" Jip said with a shy face, "By the way, for this first step, does Mr. Xiao need a small loan?"

"It's not a small loan, but a large loan." Xiao Qi said without blinking: "I wonder what your bank's valuation is for the DreamPad industry?"

"10 billion euros." Newcastle replied without hiding anything.

"Citi is US$20 billion." Jabil also quoted a price. Citibank's confidence in Xiao Qi is getting stronger, so naturally it wants a higher valuation.

Of course Xiao Qi would not tell them that when the quarterly sales of IPAD2 reached more than 10 billion US dollars, whether it was 10 billion euros or 20 billion US dollars, it would be a huge insult to DreamPad.

The time and environment are different, and the situation will not be the same.

It's only 2006 now, and the iPhone hasn't even been released yet, so how can there be a reasonable valuation?

Xiao Qi slightly nodded: "Well, I want to borrow a five-year loan of 5 billion US dollars, using part of DreamPad's property patents as collateral. Please go back and discuss it to see if we can meet this requirement."

"Snapped!"

Yu Shanshan was drinking mineral water. When she heard the number "5 billion U.S. dollars," her plastic water bottles fell to the ground.

5 billion US dollars!

Even if the exchange rate has now dropped to 7.8:1, it still amounts to 39 billion yuan!

Although she knew that the 30 million sets of parts ordered by Xiao Qi would require a large amount of funds to pay for it, was it too radical to provide a loan of US$5 billion at once?

The tall and sexy beauty was horrified, but the two presidents were used to seeing the world. Not to mention 5 billion, they had seen businesses worth 50 billion. The scale and majesty of the two super banks was not something to be said.

Just for fun.

Besides, the two of them had discussed this matter when they were down there.

Jabil has long received the authorization from the head office, and Newcastle also has a lot of discretionary power. The two companies combined 5 billion, which is not an unacceptable amount.

What's more, Xiao Qi also bluntly said that if you use DreamPad as a guarantee, there will be no problem.

They also wished that Xiao Qi would just gamble on oil, turn victory into defeat in the end, lose billions, and then take advantage of the opportunity to borrow money to seize some shares, preferably a controlling stake, that would be really cool.

!

But you can't say these words, otherwise there will be a fight today.

"If there is collateral, 5 billion US dollars shouldn't be a big problem, and the interest rate will satisfy you." Jabil said thoughtfully, "Mr. Xiao, in a few days we will make a detailed plan. In addition to borrowing

In addition to money matters, there are also various services we can provide. Please take a good look at it, and then we will discuss it in detail."

"OK."

Xiao Qi smiled and nodded.

He had never thought of taking out a loan of US$5 billion. Although he had to pay more than US$7 billion for parts and patent royalties for one year, after all, it came in batches, so the pressure was not so great at the time.

But when he heard that they were actually the bosses behind several of the nine advertising companies, Xiao Qi immediately knew that they must have studied the market prospects of DreamPad, so they rushed over eagerly.
Chapter completed!
