Larle Bills Le Wah and Aubert de Veran each owned 50 percent of Château Conti and for a long time co-operated Romanée Conti, which is now inseparable from the legendary woman.

De Veran is strict and low-key, his love of classical music is like a pool, while Lalu is a natural strong woman who is as hot as a career.

It's a perfect combination.

It's a pity that Lehua and Veran couldn't escape the day of their breakup in the end.

Although Lalu Biz Lehua is very successful in winemaking and winery management, she has never had enough say in the family.

In 1988, there was a huge financial crisis within the Lehua Group.

After learning about the situation, Takashimaya Co., Ltd., a chain department store in the island country, took the initiative to throw an olive branch to Lehua Group, expressing its willingness to inject a large amount of funds into Lehua Group to help Lehua tide over the difficulties.

Takashimaya is certainly not a charity, and their conditions are simple: to acquire 40 percent of the shares of the Lehua Group, which is to be highlighted as at least 40 percent of the shares of Château Romanée Conti.

Under the circumstances at that time, the Lehua Group had no other choice and naturally accepted the request made by Takashimaya.

Initially, the acquisition did not go smoothly due to obstruction by all parties, but later, Takashimaya opened up a crucial node and received strong support from the French government.

The arms can't twist the thighs.

Takashimaya Co., Ltd. was finally able to get its wish and achieved indirect control of Château Romanée Conti by acquiring the shares of the Lehua Group.

Lalu Bidz Le Hua was stripped of all shares of Château de Conti by her family because of her extremely tough attitude in the acquisition process, and she left Château de Conti in frustration, and then established her own Château de la Le Birch.

As for the 10% of the shares that were not taken by Takashimaya, they were allocated to the two descendants of Lalu Biz Lehua within the Lehua family, which was regarded as a means of easing relations, but unfortunately it did not have the slightest effect.

Lalu Biz Lehua didn't appreciate it at all.

At that time, this matter caused a stir in France, and the people were extremely dissatisfied with the fact that Takashimaya became the second largest shareholder of Kande Winery, but later this matter was suppressed by the government, and slowly no sound was heard.

Thirty years have passed, almost all traces have been erased, and only a few people know the truth.

A large part of the reason why Aubert de Veran is called the "Divine Guardian" is because he was extremely tough in the original takeover of Takashimaya and did not compromise a single cent, otherwise Château Romanée Conti would have become an island company.

"Wu, if you want to become the owner of Romani Conti, you have to find a way from the Takashimaya department store chain. Barbara concluded.

The timing of Takashimaya's acquisition of Château de Conti was the time when French wines were becoming popular in the island country, and Takashimaya controlled a part of the shares of Château Conti, just to make profits, as long as it was not mixed with emotions like Aubert de Veran.

Fang Nanqi's curious baby was satisfied, and returned to his seat with a look on his face as if he had discovered a new continent, unaware of the look on his face just now.

"Takashimaya? Wu Qian frowned and pondered, he remembered where he had heard this name before, and he couldn't remember it for a moment.

"Boss, a few days ago downstairs at Harrods, I met two distant relatives who claimed to be a high-ranking member of Takashimaya, and they intended to treat your compatriot Miss Wang badly. Rosalind reminded.

Wu Qian thought about it instantly.

"Haha, this ...... Yes, yes, that's it, Takashimaya Co., Ltd., interesting. ”

Wu Qian never thought that he would have anything to do with Takashimaya Co., Ltd., the other party is a chain department store, and he also has a top department store, and he is a rival.

But I didn't expect to be in contact again in such an interesting situation.

"Barbara, what is the situation with Takashimaya Co., Ltd., and what is the approximate value of the shares of Kande Winery in their hands?" asked Wu Qian.

Barbara got up and took her laptop in front of Wu Qian, and retrieved information about Takashimaya from the database, a world-renowned large company, she would gather basic information.

"The total market capitalization of Takashimaya is about 8 billion pounds, and the net profit of the previous year was 200 million pounds......"

"If Romanée Conti has 40% of the shares, I calculate, according to the current situation, it should be about 300 million, the premium is very high, even if it can be sold, the price will definitely exceed 350 million, or even more than 400 million pounds. ”

Barbara quickly found the information that Wu Qian wanted.

"Hmm...... The market value of Harrods is 3.5 billion pounds, and the net profit is more than 200 million pounds a year, and the profitability of Takashimaya is not good......"

Although they are both department stores, the business models between Takashimaya and Harrods are completely different, and the height of the two is also different, so it is really bullying to directly compare the profitability.

As he spoke, Wu Qian's mobile phone rang, he took it out and looked at it, news came from Fei Miller's side, and he raised his hand to signal everyone not to speak.

In the message, Femiler said that Woodward's family was in the villa and that nothing unusual had happened.

Wu Qian replied with the word "arrangement" simply, and then transferred the money one by one to the accounts that Woodward had provided before, and after the magic and Chase called to confirm that it was correct, the transfer was completed.

After Wu Qian received an affirmative reply from Woodward, he put away his phone and stood up.

"Barbara, I know that your service is to provide business information in the rear, but I believe that your ability is definitely more than that, I wonder if you are interested in being a front-line and organizing an acquisition negotiation?"

Everyone saw Wu Qian stand up, and everyone else stood up.

At the main table, except for Fang Nanqi, who was still a little confused, the rest of the people already knew the meaning of Wu Qian's words.

Barbara closed the laptop, put it in her handbag, and said with a smile: "Then it depends on Wu, how much money are you willing to pay me, I love money, you know." ”

"Personality!" Wu Qian praised.

Capable people generally have personality, and capable people will have personality to be appreciated.

A straw bale is arrogant, and I'm afraid no one will pay attention.

Wu Qian raised his wrist and looked at the time, he knew that the time zone of the island country and the Celestial Empire was about the same, and he had already entered the second day in advance.

"It should be dawn in the island country at this time, Barbara, I don't know tomorrow in France, can I have the honor to invite you to have a few drinks in the Conti winery, and if so, I will give you five cases of flagship Romanée Conti as a reward for this order, how about it?"
