In late March, Wu Guangyao arrived in London by private plane.

In Yaoyue Manor, Wu Guangyao, Kaila, the eldest son Wu Xianlei's family of five, the second son Wu Xianyu's family of four, the eldest daughter Wu Qianxun's family of three, and the third son Wu Xianming spent a wonderful weekend.

When Wu Xianlei returned to the United States, Wu Guangyao pulled him and asked privately, "Are you sure about the acquisition of ABC?"

Wu Xianlei did not give a direct and affirmative answer, but said with concern: "Father, in terms of business, my conditions are sufficient in all aspects. Now the only thing I am stuck with is the Federal Communications Commission of the United States! But father, don't worry, we and Goldman Sachs, the Mellon Consortium, and the California Consortium have formed an alliance and are sending people around to lobby; finally, I am asking President Reagan for help, there must be no problem!"

When Disney went public, it was looking for financial alliances to help with the next acquisition.

Wu Guangyao nodded. Wu Xianlei has now fully integrated into the upper class of the United States. His father-in-law has been promoted by Reagan to be the leader of the majority party of the Senate, and he is the highest-ranking member of the majority party in the Senate;

And he himself controls public opinion in the United States, owning many newspapers and Disney companies.

In the previous life, Disney was able to acquire ABC in the year before the U.S. Telecommunications Act was finalized, obviously there was no legal denial.

However, Wu Guangyao decided to add fire to Wu Xianlei, so that the acquisition can be concluded as soon as possible!

"I learned from a secret channel that someone may assassinate President Reagan, you can remind him!"

Wu Xianlei was shocked, the news was really shocking!

"Father, where did you get the news? Is it accurate?" Wu Xianlei asked urgently. Reagan was his fundamental support. He invested so much and there was no return, so nothing happened.

Wu Guangyao pretended to be unsure and said: "I don't know the specific channel of the news! But I seem to have heard that it was on the 30th of this month, when the trade union team got together at the hotel."

When Wu Xianlei heard this, he calculated the time. Today is only the 26th, and he had time to rush back to the United States, so he was relieved!

"Thank you father for reminding me that I will visit President Reagan on the 28th and tell him privately! I believe he values ​​my personal relationship with him."

Wu Guangyao frowned, and said, "Then you have to pay attention to what you say, how did you get it, so as not to be suspected!"

Wu Xianlei nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Americans know that I am the biggest supporter of President Reagan, so I told President Reagan that someone handed me a note!"

This method works!

Wu Guangyao patted Wu Xianlei on the shoulder, and said lovingly: "If the incident is true, there is a big debt to you! Remember, you don't ask him for help directly; if you really need help from him, you can inadvertently let him You know, if he cherishes his relationship with you, he will help you!"

Wu Xianlei said with a smile: "Father's trick is called 'playing hard to get', and it is the sixteenth of our Chinese's thirty-six tactics!"

Wu Guangyao nodded in relief. These children of his know a lot of Chinese culture, which is one of the best gifts their mother gave him.

 …

Monday.

Wu Guangyao followed Kaila to Crewe County to inspect several brand automobile factories invested by Lufeng Automobile Group.

At this time, the automobile brands owned by Lufeng Motor Group include: Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Land Rover, Jaguar, and mini, five automobile brands.

That is to say, Lufeng Automobile Group chose not to acquire other brands of Leyland Motors, because if they are all acquired, it may lead to anti-monopoly investigations.

And these five car brands are enough to realize Wu Guangyao's car dream;

At this time, in addition to these five auto brands, Lufeng Motor also owns many auto parts companies, and has reached a long-term cooperation agreement with the British engine giant Vickers.

The specific plans for the five car brands are as follows:

The Rolls-Royce brand will not be changed for the time being.

It is still positioned as luxurious and purely handmade, but the output has been slightly adjusted, and the output has increased by about 20%. Of course, only the engine and a few car body parts are purely handmade, and the rest are all manufactured by integrated stamping technology.

The Bentley brand has been adjusted, from a luxury brand to a mid-to-high-end brand. After all, a company does not need two luxury brands; even in later generations, Rolls-Royce and Bentley have separated, and they both maintain the continuation of the luxury brand. .

Land Rover focuses on the field of off-road vehicles, Jaguar focuses on the field of bridge cars, station wagons, and sports cars, and mini focuses on the field of mini cars and ladies' cars.

It can be said that the five car brands basically cover the whole series of cars;

As for trucks, buses and other fields, Wu Guangyao chose to let Kaila give up, after all, he could not eat too much!

Came to the headquarters of Lufeng Motor in Crewe, and Keira introduced Wu Guangyao to a senior executive of Lufeng Motor Group.

After some introduction, Wu Guangyao looked at Lufeng Motor Group President Brooke, and said with a smile: "The British should have learned from the Germans' experience in the automotive field!"

Vice President Wall blushed because he was British;

Brooke responded: "It's not too late now, Mr. Wu, what do you think!"

Wu Guangyao said something quite philosophical: "It's never too late for a good meal!"

This remark has been seriously considered by all the high-level officials!

The Wu family is the shareholder of Lufeng Group, so it is only natural for Wu Guangyao to appear here!

Wall said: "Mr. Wu, can you provide some help in the negotiations with the mainland!"

Wu Guangyao said, "How can I help?"

Wall immediately said: "With your influence among the Chinese, Hong Kong's status is enough for the mainland to treat us preferentially!"

Wu Guangyao said sternly: "I have never participated in political activities, and I have never used my influence to manipulate some political forces! Mr. Wall, I know you have had a hard time negotiating with the mainland; but you should also understand that compared to the public , Toyota and other more influential car brands, we have no advantage.”

Wall said: "But Continental has no advantage, and has proposed various rules and regulations. I believe that many car companies are considering the feasibility of cooperation!"

Wu Guangyao said seriously again: "Wrong, wrong, wrong! The mainland has a great advantage, that is the market; don't look at the current rules and regulations, but as long as the policy becomes more and more open, these rules and regulations will gradually disappear. So who started Know how to put in, know how to give, and you will get more in the end. Mr. Wall, I didn’t intend to interfere with your work, but I want to remind you today that friends need to build trust at the beginning, so I hope you re-examine Own work!"

What Wu Guangyao said is true. There are many rules and regulations at the beginning. Even if you sign some agreements, the mainland will remove these rules and regulations in the final policy development, such as the issue of foreign exchange balance.

After listening to it, everyone thought about it!

After a long time, Wall finally said sincerely: "I will listen to Mr. Wu's advice seriously!"

Wu Guangyao nodded and said: "Negotiations are like this. When it comes to non-key interests, you must know how to be humble, otherwise you will never succeed! What we have to do is to seize the market of German and Japanese cars in the mainland market. .Our British cars used to be proud, but now they have declined, and it is time to study the market!"

A group of high-level executives, while chatting, took the bus to the car factory for inspection;

Lufeng Automobile Group put all the treasures in Crewe County;

A total of five new automobile factories were built with a total investment of 1.5 billion US dollars;

Five new car factories, corresponding to five car brands, will be put into use in two years.

In addition to the five new factories, there are four automobile factories in production in Crewe, and the group first came to the Rolls-Royce factory.

Seeing the professional technicians working meticulously, Wu Guangyao secretly nodded;

These may be the spirit brought by the German Brooke, and the rigorous work attitude of the Germans.

"President Brook, does the Rolls-Royce brand offer customized services?"

"Yes, but mainly for the British royal family!"

Wu Guangyao frowned and said: "This is not acceptable. We are a commercial company, so we should not be too proud! In this way, we should set up a business team to be responsible for this service. For example, I know a friend in the United States, her Las Vegas The largest casino in Garth will open in two years, and I think she might want to order more than a dozen customized Rolls-Royce cars; for example, the royal families of various countries can order a unique car if they need it; Anyway, we are also handcrafted, which will not increase the cost; on the contrary, this kind of customization will greatly enhance the reputation of the Rolls-Royce brand, and we can also increase the price."

Rolls-Royce only produces less than 2,000 vehicles a year, and Wu Guangyao doesn't like the profits generated, but it is a good choice to enhance the reputation and status of the Wu family in Europe.

The eyes of all the senior executives brightened, and they all agreed!

Besides, Rolls-Royce is not arrogant now, after all, it has been included in the new automobile group.

After attending the Rolls-Royce Motors factory, they came to the nearby Bentley Motors factory.

Wu Guangyao said: "After the new factory is established, Bentley will adopt assembly line production. By then, it will definitely be very popular in the United States. Americans use the money of mid-range cars to buy high-end car brands."

Brook said with a smile: "Anyway, a company has two luxury brands, and it is the best choice to take out one brand and sink it!"

Everyone agrees with this point of view!

After visiting Crewe County for two full days, Wu Guangyao and Keira returned to London contentedly.

In the car, Kaila snuggled into Wu Guangyao's arms, and said worriedly: "Lufeng Automobile Group has invested 3 billion US dollars, what if it fails?"

Wu Guangyao stroked Kaila's beautiful hair and said, "I'll treat it as a gift for you. You're tired of playing, so it's not a pity to throw it away!"

Keira said dissatisfied: "When did I throw away the gift you gave me!"

Wu Guangyao said with a smile: "It's just an analogy! In short, we have worked hard to succeed or not! Besides, I don't care about the 3 billion US dollars, just sprinkling water!"

Kayla fell in love with Wu Guangyao, and then buried herself in Wu Guangyao's arms lovingly.

At this moment, Wu Guangyao thought to himself, how could it be unsuccessful!

Even if I don't have any vision, it is impossible for these car brands to disappear in my family!

After all, these cars have heritage, and the UK does not lack technology.

The reason why the British sold these car brands in the previous life was that they did not pay attention to the real economy, and they only sold the right to use the car brand.

Things like factories will not be moved out of the UK.
