Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

Rosiana didn't understand Wang Ye's thoughts, and there was no need for Wang Ye to explain too much to her.

Anyway, what I did was for people who could understand, and Rosiana was not among them.

He deliberately teased: "Then if I ask your family to borrow money, your family should be able to come up with the five billion US dollars. These days, the communications industry is really profitable. Every month, I pay for my mobile phone bill." It costs hundreds of dollars."

Rosiana rolled her eyes at him and said unhappily: "Whenever I take over the family business, that will be no problem. Unfortunately, I don't have a say in the family yet, so you can't borrow a penny!"

Wang Ye sighed deliberately and said: "That's a pity. I said you didn't go back to the family business to train for a few years so that you can take over the family business in the future. Why do you have to come over and be my assistant? I don't have the ability to help you. To compete for the next one...what do you call him in your family, is he the clan leader?"

"Hehe, no, he is the chairman of the family fund. The person who serves as the chairman now is my grandfather, but my father has several brothers and sisters. As for my various cousins, there are even more , If it’s my turn, I don’t even know how long it will take.”

Rosiana didn't seem to care about this very much and said with a smile.

Wang Ye didn't know much about such a big family.

However, he may indeed get involved in this communications industry in the future, but not now.

By then, maybe he really wants to give Rosiana a hand.

Because if Rosiana takes the position of chairman of their family fund, it will also provide more convenience for Wang Ye.

Wang Ye likes to do things that are mutually beneficial.

After solving the funding problem, Katya accelerated the acquisition process.

On October 6, in the large conference room on the top floor of the Kitty Eagle Hotel, an acquisition team specially formed by Katya and Polar Bear Investment Company came to report to Wang Ye on the acquisition of car brands.

They have already had two or three rounds of talks with Ford, and many details have been discussed. Now they are waiting for Wang Ye to make the final decision.

Wang Ye was sitting at the head of the long conference table in the conference room, and naturally sitting next to him was Special Assistant Rosiana.

"Boss, we have already talked with Ford. They hope that we can package and acquire the three brands of Volvo, Jaguar, and Land Rover. In this case, we can have certain discounts on price. And all relevant technology patents of these three brands will be transferred. Give us……"

Katya talked eloquently, it can be seen that after more than a year of experience, she is no longer the ignorant little star.

But it has a bit of meaning as a strong woman in the workplace.

After listening to her report, Wang Ye asked calmly: "If three brands are packaged and acquired, how much will they offer."

"For the Volvo brand, their price is US$2.4 billion. Land Rover is US$1.6 billion and Jaguar is US$800 million. The total is US$4.8 billion! Of course, if the three brands are packaged and acquired together, then the total The price is expected to be around US$4.5 billion," Katya said simply.

Wang Ye pondered for a moment, then said after careful consideration: "In this case... you go and talk to them again. Four billion US dollars in cash will be paid in one lump sum. We will buy the three brands in one package!"

His price reduction was a bit harsh, but the conditions he gave were good enough.

Generally speaking, for such large-scale mergers and acquisitions, all cash is rarely paid in one lump sum.

In most cases, it is some kind of share exchange or installment payment. It is rarely so refreshing anyway.

Wang Ye had enough funds, so he could be more willful and spend four billion US dollars directly. He didn't believe that the Ford Group would not be tempted.

You know, this company has been having a hard time in recent years. It expanded too much in the past few years, resulting in serious losses.

The reason for selling off these sub-brands is to demolish the east wall to make up for the west wall.

The two core brands of the Ford Group will definitely not be sold, namely "Ford" and "Lincoln". As for other brands, they don't care.

Katya nodded and said cautiously: "Okay, boss, I will get in touch with the other party as soon as possible. It is estimated that the problem is not big. After these negotiations, it can be seen that their need for funds is still very urgent. In fact, we are not without competitors. It is said that several Asian companies are also in contact with the Ford Group. The reason why we can stand out and be recognized by the Ford Group is because I told them that we would pay in cash when we started talking. "

Of course Wang Ye knew that if he hadn't intervened, these three brands would have fallen into the hands of Asan's Tata Group and the domestic Geely Group respectively.

However, according to his understanding, the two companies have been talking about acquiring these brands for many years.

It seemed that the deal was finally settled around 06 or 07.

Originally, this kind of cross-border acquisition, which often cost billions of dollars, was not so easy to decide.

The two sides went back and forth in negotiations, spending money and money, and several years passed in the back and forth negotiations. How could Wang Ye be so cheerful?

In just a few months, this major acquisition of nearly US$5 billion was basically finalized!

There is no way, Wang Ye has nothing else, but he just has a lot of money...

…………

Katya was very efficient. Three days after the briefing, she found Wang Ye again.

"Boss, I have finalized the price with the other party. The final price is US$4.2 billion. The other party said that this is the lowest price and cannot make any more concessions. What do you think of this price?"

She was still a little nervous when she spoke, fearing that Wang Ye would think that she was not capable enough and had not kept the price down.

Because Wang Ye was talking about a package acquisition of US$4 billion at the time, but no matter how he negotiated, the other party insisted that if it was less than US$4.2 billion, there would be no need to negotiate.

Maybe this is just the other party's bluff. If he really delays it for two or three years, the price will naturally come down.

But Wang Ye no longer cares about the money. For him, time is more precious.

In order to save $200 million, postpone the acquisition for two or three years?

He definitely doesn't want to.

Therefore, after a brief pause, Wang Ye said decisively: "Tell the other party that you are ready to sign a contract! The price is US$4.2 billion, but you must get all the technology patents and design patents of these three companies, but Don't be fooled by the other party and come back with an empty shell."

Of these three car companies, the most valuable thing is naturally the brand, but technology patents should not be underestimated.

Although it is not as good as established car companies such as Mercedes-Benz, BMW and Volkswagen, they all have their own unique features.

Volvo's safety and environmental protection and Land Rover's luxury off-road vehicles are both renowned in the industry.

As for Jaguar...

Wang Ye really didn't know what was so special about this brand, so he bought it casually.
