Chapter 379: Watch industry

   "Neilson, is there any direction left? I don't think you are only going to enter alcohol." Li Zhiwen asked with a smile.

   "Boss, the other thing I see is watches and jewelry!" Nelson Tabia said.

   Li Zhiwen did not continue to speak either, and acted in a respectful manner.

   "In the watch field, the Swiss watch companies are the most famous, so if we want to acquire, at least we have to acquire one or two Swiss luxury brand watch companies, supplemented by some domestic light luxury brand watches."

   "The most famous Swiss watch in the world is the Patek Philippe in the hands of the boss." Nelson Tabia made a joke at the right time.

   "Patek Philippe was founded by Anthony Patek and Jean Adrian Philip in 1851, and it has a history of more than 100 years."

   "After that, with the passage of time, Patek Philippe developed step by step. In 1932, the Stern Brothers invested and acquired Patek Philippe."

   "Followed by leaps and bounds, it finally became the world's number one watch company."

   "Patek Philippe has many patents, such as balance wheel, time zone watch, ultra-thin automatic movement and other patents."

   "As for the acquisition of Patek Philippe, many patents can be used on other brands. This is the reason why I proposed the acquisition of Patek Philippe." Nelson Tabia said.

   "I know, in fact, when I formed the new Louis Vuitton Group, I had the idea to include Patek Philippe."

   "It's just that the old man Henry Den is too staid, there is no room for negotiation, and more than 60% of the Patek Philippe Group's shares are concentrated in the hands of the Henry Den, there is really no place to talk."

"Of course, the trip to Switzerland was not entirely without gain, here, this Patek Philippe watch was given to me by Henry Stern." Li Zhiwen raised his arm with Patek Philippe and said to Nelson Tabia with a mocking gesture. .

   Of course, Henry Sden did not give Li Zhiwen a watch worth millions of dollars for nothing.

   In fact, the two met to discuss a lot of things, and many ideas coincided.

   Li Zhiwen and Henry Liesdon became a year-end relationship, Henry Li Zhiwen gave Li Zhiwen a watch as a meeting gift, as for the issue of acquisition, I don’t even think about it.

   Elizabeth Adjani saw Li Zhiwen's mood a bit weak, and patted Li Zhiwen on the shoulder to comfort her.

   Elizabeth Adjani went with Li Zhiwen on that trip to Switzerland.

   The two ran to the Alps to go skiing and were very happy, but after seeing Henlisden, they were not so beautiful anymore.

   But for Li Zhiwen, it was just a failed acquisition. Maybe there is still a chance in the future, so I didn't care too much. It's just that I'm in a bad mood now.

   Nelson Tabia heard that Li Zhiwen had contacted Henry Den, and the acquisition had failed, so he stopped mentioning Patek Philippe, but continued to introduce it to the following.

"Vacheron Constantin, founded in Geneva, Switzerland in 1755, is one of the three Trinity members in the world. The founder, Vacheron Constantin, has a history of more than two hundred years. Vacheron Constantin currently has fifty specialty stores around the world. They are distributed in developed cities, such as London, Paris, New York and other places, have their own stores, but Vacheron Constantin is slightly larger than Patek Philippe, and it has always been family-owned, which makes it very difficult to acquire." Nelson Tabia said .

   Knowing that Li Zhiwen had contact with Patek Philippe, Nelson Tabbiat was also a family-owned Vacheron Constantin location, and Li Zhiwen was also asked to gauge the difficulty of the acquisition.

   Li Zhiwen nodded, indicating that he knew it.

   In fact, Li Zhiwen also went to the Vacheron Constantin Group at the time, but the information received by the Patek Philippe Group was exactly the same.

Nelson Tabia saw that Li Zhiwen didn’t say anything, and continued to introduce: “Audemars Piguet, founded by Jules Louis Odnar and Ed Auguste Leathert, is one of the three Trinity members in the world. , Founded in 1875, is also in charge of the descendants of the two founders."

   Li Zhiwen feels a headache when he hears words such as family and offspring. These words often signify that the acquisition is very difficult.

   These words are very common in the watch industry, and most of them are developed by small workshops.

Seeing that Li Zhiwen didn’t have much interest, Nelson Tabia continued: “Blankpain, founded in 1735, is the oldest watch brand in Swiss history and the first registered watch brand in history. Created by Jehan Yak Brampain."

   "The Blancpain Manufacture joined the Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd. in the late 1950s."

   "At present, Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd. intends to sell the Blancpain brand."

   Li Zhiwen's eyes gleamed when he heard Nelson Tabiya say the word sale.

   "But at present, the Brampaing family has the idea to take back the Blancpain brand, and the negotiations with Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd. have entered a substantive stage." Nelson Tabia said.

   "It's all sold, why do you take it back, Nelson, immediately send someone to Switzerland to bring Blancpain back to me." Li Zhiwen said in a final word.

   "Yes, boss!" Nelson Tabia heard Li Zhiwen's words and hurriedly promised.

"Also, what's going on with this Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd. Is it possible to acquire it?" Li Zhiwen continued to ask ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Nelson Tabia, who heard Li Zhiwen's jumping thoughts, smiled bitterly, he just Want to buy one or two Swiss top luxury brand watches, and the boss wants to take away the pot directly.

So Nelson Tabia said: "Boss, Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd. is currently merging with Asaug Group, which is being merged by Swiss watchmaker Nicholas G Hayek. The merger plan has been two years. "

   "Most of the brands have agreed, only the Tissot brand and the Omega brand, which are affiliated to Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd., have not reached a cooperation due to the issue of the proportion of shares after the merger."

   "But I heard that there has been a breakthrough recently, and the Blancpain we said before has always disagreeed with the merger, so Swiss Watch Industry Co., Ltd. decided to sell Blancpain. After all, it was too much of an obstacle."

   "Since it feels in the way, then we simply bought Tissot and Omega to form a new watch group."

   "This can be considered a great help, and they can also complete the merger immediately." Li Zhiwen said.

   Nelson Tabia hesitated: "Boss, we would offend Nicholas G Hayek so badly. His status in the Swiss watch industry is not low."

   "Doing business is still afraid of offending competitors? Besides, what about offending? After that, I don't know who loses and who wins." Li Zhiwen said contemptuously.
