On the morning of May 8, after Li Guangyu came to the Jaguar office, he said to Zhang Ziyu, "Ziyu, you go to contact President Peng Xiaoli of the United States, and ask her to lead the group's acquisition team to Coventry, and I am ready to buy the football club in Coventry." ”

Zhang Ziyu replied, "Okay Li Sheng, I will contact Ms. Peng in the afternoon and convey your instructions to her." ”

Li Guangyu then remembered that it was late at night in the United States, and then said, "You just look at the time and contact, you go and notify Ms. Du Yuemei to come to my office." ”

Zhang Ziyu listened to Li Guangyu's instructions, and after replying, he went out of the office and went to find Du Yuemei.

After Du Yuemei entered Li Guangyu's office, she said, "Li Sheng, do you have any instructions for me?"

Li Guangyu said, "Yuemei, there is no headquarters of the Bentley Group now, what are your plans for this, and have you considered where to set up the headquarters?"

Du Yuemei said: "Li Sheng, it is obviously not the ideal place for our Bentley Group headquarters in Crewe, it has always been the territory of Rolls-Royce, I think it is better to be on Jaguar's side, and it is also conducive to the control of Jaguar by our group headquarters." ”

Li Guangyu also intends to establish the headquarters of the Bentley Group in Coventry, and even plans to move Bentley Motors to the future as well, leaving it to Rolls-Royce to toss slowly.

Li Guangyu said, "Yuemei, in addition to the $8.5 billion acquisition of Jaguar this time, the $1.5 billion will be transferred to the group's account for the group's operation and headquarters building. 35xs”

Du Yuemei happily replied, "Okay Li Sheng, we will make the group building plan as soon as possible for you to see." ”

Two days later, Peng Xiaoli and some people from Xinghong Sports Group arrived in Coventry.

In the conference room of Jaguar, Li Guangyu said to them, "Xiaoli, you have done a good job this year, the Lakers have now entered the Western Conference semifinals, and they are very hopeful of winning the championship this year." The Kings [hockey] are good, they're still a little bit away from the championship, but they're a playoff team, and I'm very happy with your results. ”

Peng Xiaoli said, "Li Sheng, it is all thanks to you, we have such results, and your series of arrangements for the Lakers have made us have such strength." ”

Although Li Guangyu himself has some arrangements, without them to maintain the stable development of the group, the team would not have achieved such results.

Li Guangyu said: "Your merits, our Li family will record them, and you are also clear about the things that let you come over this time." I'm going to buy Coventry's football club, which isn't very good in the top flight but has been relegated every year, so it's your job to buy the club. ”

Peng Xiaoli had already heard Zhang Ziyu talk about this aspect when she didn't come to the UK, and she was very happy that the group could expand into the football industry, and the group she led could grow again.

Peng Xiaoli said: "Li Sheng, Ms. Du Yuemei has provided us with some information about Coventry Football Club, and we will evaluate Coventry Football Club soon before considering the next acquisition. ”

Li Guangyu said: "You can do it yourself, I don't know much about football, and you need to deal with this aspect yourself." ”

Peng Xiaoli said, "Li Sheng, rest assured, our group will handle it and strive to win the Coventry Club as soon as possible." ”

After Li Guangyu instructed Peng Xiaoli to buy Coventry Football Club, he didn't bother with this aspect anymore, this is still for them to be professionals, he himself doesn't even know how many famous football stars he is currently in, so he still doesn't want to point fingers.

In the past few days, Li Guangyu visited various departments of Jaguar, especially the power research and development room of Jaguar Company, which is mainly engaged in the research and development of Jaguar engines, and is also the top priority of the automotive industry of the Li Group in the future.

In later generations, many domestic industries suffered from the lack of strong engine technical strength, and many times had to turn to foreign countries, and the luxury cars of later generations were basically foreign brands, which was also due to the lack of technical strength.

Li Guangyu said to Du Yuemei, who accompanied him before, "In the future, the group must pay attention to the research and development of engine technology and increase investment in research and development, which is the foundation for us to compete with other automobile groups for the market." ”

"Mr. Li, we have merged the power R&D department of Bentley Motors with Jaguar, and they will supply a wide range of engines for all brands of cars in our group. Du Yuemei replied.

Li Guangyu has been in Coventry for a few days, and he has come out to Jaguar every day to learn about some affairs of Bentley Motors Group, and then he is concerned about the progress of Peng Xiaoli's acquisition of Coventry Football Club, and there is nothing to worry about.

After a week-long process, Peng Xiaoli and her team finally reached a preliminary agreement with several shareholders of Coventry Football Club, but one of them wanted to meet with Li Guangyu.

Peng Xiaoli had no choice but to report the situation to Li Guangyu.

Li Guangyu said, "Xiaoli, what other requirements do they have?"

Peng Xiaoli said: "Li Sheng, we bought their stadium together, and after this period of negotiation, we bought Coventry Football Club and Coventry Sports Centre for $46 million. And one of the shareholders who brought us to the deal wanted to meet you, and he seems to be a supplier to Jaguar Motors. ”

Li Guangyu said, "So, did he say when they met?"

Peng Xiaoli said: "Li Sheng, the time can be set by you, I don't know if he asked you to help him in other aspects on the condition that we buy Coventry City Football Club." ”

Li Guangyu didn't know what the other party thought of, and he could only talk about it after meeting, if it wasn't too big a problem, he could agree. If you make it difficult for yourself to do it, it's a big deal to change your goal, you don't necessarily have to just buy Coventry's football team, there are so many English teams, you provoke yourself, and go directly to buy Manchester United.

"You go and inform the shareholder that I will meet him at Jaguar at nine o'clock tomorrow morning," said Lee. ”

"Okay Li Sheng, I'll contact him. After Peng Xiaoli finished speaking, she left Li Guangyu's office.

Li Guangyu then instructed Zhang Ziyu, "Ziyu, you go and inform Mr. Shane Wesley to come to my office. ”

"Okay. Zhang Ziyu replied.

Shane Wesley came to Lee Kwangwoo's office and said, "Mr. Lee, do you have anything to do with me?"

Li Guangyu told Shane Wesley the information about the shareholder that Peng Xiaoli had responded to, and asked him if he knew anything about it.

Shane Wesley said, "Mr. Lee, Mr. Whisky Converse has been the main seat supplier of our Bentley Motors Company in recent years, and the quality of their products is still good, but he has always been close to Mr. Sampson Gerrard before, and I wonder if he wants to meet you this time because he is worried about losing our company's business." ”

Li Guangyu now knows some specific details, and it seems that there is still hope for the acquisition of Coventry Club.
