CGT headquarters, Paris.

After a brief meeting with the company's top management, Li Zitao and Augustin, who arrived, offered to visit the shipyard.

"Since the global economy has been hit hard and the situation is getting worse, the shipbuilding industry in various countries has been in a state of shutdown,

Except for those fools of the White Star Company, who gritted their teeth and held on, they have now been reduced to the situation of being bought by their old rivals. ”

"CGT thought we could survive this winter, but now it seems that we can't stand it. ”

When he talked about 'White Star Fool' a second ago, he was still full of pride, and then he turned into a bitter gourd face, and Li Zitao also admired his courage.

Difficult brothers still mock each other, do they slap their faces?

"I heard Her Royal Highness the princess mention, CGT currently has a luxury cruise ship under construction?" Li Zitao asked curiously.

"Yes, codenamed T6, with a tonnage of 83,423 tons, a streamlined bulbous bow, electric propulsion, and air-conditioning throughout the ship, it will be the most luxurious cruise ship in the world. ”

Speaking of the 'Normandy' under construction, Augustine regained his pride.

In CGT's plans, the ship's décor will amaze the world, with bright and textured marble churches, an opera house with modern sound equipment, an indoor swimming pool with heated water circulation system, and a fully equipped fitness room.

There are sports courts, tennis courts, and an open-air public pool and a 2-metre diving platform.

The whole ship will be in a sporty Art Deco style, with a large number of shark prints, zebra prints, zigzag zigzag patterns, stepped patterns, bold and curved curves, and radial patterns, which will make people feel like they are in the corridor of the century.

Whether it's the carpets, paneling or artwork used in the interior of the boat, they will be compared and selected in many ways, and every detail must be perfected to make people impeccable.

"I'm intrigued by it. With that, the car arrived at the dock.

The bustling docks were bleak and desolate in the old days, and no one was in sight except for the managers and a few workers who wanted to try their luck and see if they could find a job.

Along the dock to the dock, the behemoth that built two-thirds came into view, and the people standing next to it were small in addition to being small.

Following the ladder to the top floor, the hull of the ship was completely at a standstill, and only a few employees in charge of the dock security saluted the visitors.

"How much money does CGT need to get out of debt. With his feet on the bow deck of the future ship, Li Zitao looked out to sea, imagining the scene of going to sea on this giant ship.

"200,000 francs, but to get the whole company back up and running, it will take a huge investment of at least 2 million francs. Augustan watched his expression.

If the wealthy marquis was unwilling to help, they would eventually have to turn to the government for help.

It's just that if it really comes to that point, CGT will only end up in a vicious circle, waiting for other companies to encroach and swallow up.

"2 million francs, what can I get?" Lawrence had suggested that he buy the White Star Company, but Li Zitao did not agree.

First, he just wanted to build a cruise ship to have fun, and second, the precedent of the Titanic was ahead.

Although later generations adapted it into a poignant love movie and put it on the big screen and received an unprecedented hit, it still can't change the fact that it is a terrible disaster.

It can be said very responsibly that the sinking of the Titanic has had a huge impact and grief on many wealthy people in Europe and the United States, and even wealthy families.

At the mention of the name, they will resist from the bottom of their hearts, and the company that built it, Shirahoshi, will also be implicated.

For Shirahoshi now, the most important thing is to restore people's confidence in it and forget about the pain.

And the best way to do this is to build a bigger, more luxurious, more eye-catching luxury ship to restore the confidence of the disappointed in Shirahoshi.

If this were not the case, it would have been a collective brain convulsion at the top of the White Star Company, and they would have to continue to push forward the progress of the construction of luxury ships in the face of the financial crisis.

"The board of directors is willing to give 23 percent of the shares and give you a substantial cash compensation when the company returns to profitability. "Augustan unconsciously uses honorific titles, and when he asks for others, his heart is naturally shorter, which is difficult!

"Do I look like I'm short of money?" Li Zitao said jokingly.

"Your Excellency, it is better to state your terms. Seeing the other party's disapproving expression, Augustan knew that this promise had no temptation for him.

If you think about it, even if CGT recovers to profitability in the future, how much cash compensation can it provide, 50,000 or 100,000 francs?

At most, 200,000 is already unimaginable, how could he care!

"I just have one request, holdings. Seeing the battleships and giant guns in Pearl Harbor, Li Zitao had some special interest in the shipbuilding industry.

It just so happened that at this time, CGT came up, and someone handed the pillow when it was really sleepy.

On the plane, he already had a plan, the first step, to hold CGT, and the second step, to expand his influence.

The final step was the complete annexation of CGT by Lee C Astor Industries Group.

Li Zitao does not value its market value and routes, but the technical reserves and talents it has.

After the complete acquisition of CGT, Li Zitao will not close the dock and company here.

CGT is one of the most well-known shipping companies in country F, and it attracts countless talents to come to the door every year.

As long as he keeps it, Li Zitao can continue to dig up the shipbuilding talents of country F to his command openly.

Headquarters learning, training, promotion and school examination, technical exchanges, guidance

Whatever the reason, anyway, let's talk about it first, and then talk about it when you dig into the bowl and get on the thief ship, and then you want to go down, and the cracks in the ground will be used for you with 502 paste.

"I need to convince the board. Augustan stood in place, thinking for a long time with a cloudy face, and then he made a decision.

"Dear Augustine, I think you know very well that without the support of large sums of money, the fate that will be left to CGT in the end is not much better than that of Shirahoshi,

So, I hope you will do your best to convince the board that I will give them a satisfactory price. ”

Seeing Augustin's gaze become complicated, Li Zitao continued: "Moreover, I guarantee that you will still sit in your current position. ”

Continuing as CEO of CGT, the news is important for Augustin.

"I understand, Your Excellency, and I will do my best to convince the shareholders that they understand that if your kindness is rejected, the only thing that awaits them is bankruptcy. ”

Augustan has decided to use all means to force the board to agree to the deal, and CGT is his brainchild.

He has not seen the T6 launched, he has not seen it sail on the seas, he has not enjoyed the joy of success and the cheers of the people.

"I want to lead CGT to glory, I can and must do it. "From a middle manager, to a company executive, then to CEO, to the board of directors.

CGT was no less important to him than his children, and Augustine would never allow himself to watch it ruin in his own hands.
