Rover's negotiators made a secret visit to China after privately asking other international auto giants if they had plans to buy Rover, only to be shut down. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThe dismembered New Rover (MGR) is worthless in the eyes of the giants, and it is difficult to attract others in terms of brand and technology. Now there are enterprises in the far east that have taken the initiative to contact, and after being certified by BMW, Rover has sent people to China to discuss cooperation matters.

Entering China has become a politically correct option for international auto giants, and everyone is looking for partners to set up factories in China, and the announcement of entering China will drive up the company's stock price. Rover could only continue to maintain production if it could not sell it for a while, because the Phoenix Group promised not to stop production or reduce its staff, so it took advantage of this trend to come to China to pan for gold to see how it was.

Rover's people came to Zhehai first, and saw the huge automobile industry of Zhonghua Group, and the guests from England couldn't believe that China, which had always thought that it was backward, had such a developed independent brand.

"The newspapers have always claimed that China is far behind the times, but as far as I can see, China is far from being comparable to a country like India, and it is gradually becoming more and more connected to the world. What we've seen along the way proves that this is a vibrant land. Perhaps, the hope of saving Rover lies in this country!"

One of Rover's negotiators told a colleague.

In the eyes of the Western media, China is a closed and backward country with great powers, and the people here live a very poor life, living in fear under the control of the state apparatus. In particular, the different political systems make them keen to distort and look at all the problems that happen in China.

Westerners' understanding of China is far less than Chinese's understanding of the West, because the master has been a master for more than a hundred years, and Chinese have been learning from the leading Western civilization in modern times. On the contrary, Westerners are unwilling to bend down to face China, and so there are endless theories of China's collapse.

Han Hao does not plan to make a joint venture with Rover, because MGR cannot come up with any competitive models to put on the Chinese market. He is more interested in Rover's power system and model platform, and if the other party is willing to carry out technical cooperation, then Zhonghua Group can discuss with Rover in detail.

"I didn't expect that in China, our Rover's joint venture intention was actually rejected! I really don't understand what kind of confidence these Chinese have? They copy advanced foreign models, but refuse to accept the British advanced cars of pure blood!"

Through the transoceanic satellite phone, Rover representatives reported to the British headquarters that it was clear that they could not find a suitable partner in Zhehai.

So they took off and rushed to the next target - Brilliance Group.

Jin Yangyong attaches great importance to the Roverlais, and the reception specifications are more grand than those of the China Group, which makes the British regain some face, and feel that the Chinese are not a mouse.

When I saw that Brilliance Group was also a large-scale automobile factory, it made the British people who were full of confidence before coming feel a little inferior. The British Empire, the birthplace of the first industrial revolution, and the independence of the colonies, the British Isles, the only British Isles, could no longer support the dream of becoming the world's most powerful country.

Walking around the Brilliance Group with Rover representatives, seeing the look of amazement on their faces, Jin Yangyong knew that he had fully demonstrated the strength of Brilliance. Whether it is the jackpot or the dismount, in short, Rover began to face up to Brilliance as a potential partner.

Brilliance intends to form a joint venture with Rover, and the engine plant is the most important project for Jin Yangyong, but Rover obviously will not only land the engine plant, they hope to introduce the Rover and MG brands to China. Because of the field observation on Chinese roads, it is found that even 80s products such as Santana can be popular with Chinese, then there will definitely be a market for Rover and MG cars with British gentlemanly style.

"In the case of a joint venture, I can guarantee that at least 50,000 units will be sold every year. If we put on the logo of our Zhengdao sedan at that time, the annual sales of 100,000 will not be a problem. Rover 75 will focus on the taxi market in the future, and it is guaranteed that the sales will be hot!"

When Phoenix Group took over MGR, it promised to ensure 200,000 units a year, and if it could solve 100,000 units in China, the remaining 100,000 units would be easily consumed in the UK.

Rover and MG brands are now confined to the UK and even across the coast to the European continent, so the 200,000-unit commitment is a lot of pressure on management. Especially now that other international car brands have entered the UK, the brand appeal of MGR Group, which has lost market protection, has further declined, and only conservative middle-aged and elderly people are willing to continue to buy, and the younger generation prefers other international car brands.

"Your Rover and MG brands have no influence in China, and many people don't know them, but our Zhengdao is different from Jinbei and is already a well-known brand. If we change the standard to sell, it will not affect the distribution of interests of our joint venture, but will be able to integrate into the Chinese market faster. Now that any car in the Chinese market is selling hotly, it is a great opportunity to make money. If MGR wants to revive as soon as possible, then entering China and localizing is the fastest and most correct choice!"

Kim Yangyong is a full orator, and the Rover delegates were thrilled by what he said. In particular, Brilliance also proposed that it could immediately place an order for 20,000 engines from Rover as a welcome gift for the cooperation between the two sides.

Compared with the Mitsubishi engine, Rover's products are more advanced and easier to be mastered by Brilliance, so Kim Yangyong wants to replace the engine on the Jeongdo sedan with the Rover brand.

With Brilliance's order, the Rover plant in the UK will be able to continue operations and keep workers' jobs.

The Rover representative returned to the UK with Brilliance's sincerity and was ready to start a cooperation journey with Brilliance in China.

After nearly two years of deliberation, Minsheng Bank is finally preparing to go public at the end of the year, and for this purpose, it specially convened all major shareholders to Beijing for a meeting. One is for everyone to get to know each other, and the other is to prepare for the selection of new board and management members.

Since the establishment of Minsheng Bank, shareholders have been in and out, and due to the lack of major shareholders to take care of it, the bank's business development has been slow, and the company's strategy has been uncertain.

In addition to the meeting of the Federation of Industry and Commerce, representatives of private enterprise giants across the country once again gathered in the capital.

"Brother Han, hello, I haven't seen you for a while, your company's business is thriving!"

The Liu brothers, who ranked third on the Forbes rich list, took the initiative to say hello to Han Hao.

The Liu brothers' feed empire is spread all over China, and their feed will appear wherever there are farmers, which shows how rich their net worth is.

At the beginning of the preparation, Minsheng Bank subscribed for the shares, so it can be said that the shares of the original major shareholders are between 5%.

After Han Hao got 4% of the shares, he increased his holdings a little, and now accounts for 6.7%, which belongs to the top six major shareholders.

The three Liu Yonghao brothers are optimistic about the banking industry and continue to acquire shares of others, and now occupy 9.99% of the shares, which is one of the largest shareholders.

Minsheng Bank was originally an enterprise in which the national industrial and commercial bigwigs took shares, and everyone was equally powerful, so whoever said it counted, and no one said it.

Now that it is about to be listed, for the correct development of Minsheng Bank in the future, there is an urgent need for major shareholders to stand up and coordinate and set the direction.

However, when Liu Yonghao increased his holdings, the other two major shareholders also started to increase their holdings, accounting for 9.42% and 9.2% respectively.

Therefore, three forces have been formed within Minsheng Bank: one is the hope department of the Liu brothers, the other is the Oceanwide department that operates real estate and finance, and the Oriental department that operates real estate and logistics.

Each of the three factions has its own pursuits, and since the shares are relatively small, the election of a new board of directors at the shareholders' meeting has become the key to grasping the voice of Minsheng Bank in the future.

Liu Yonghao took the initiative to show favor to Han Hao, so he wanted to get help from him, as the largest shareholder, of course, he hoped to lead the direction of the future development of Minsheng Bank.

As the youngest entrepreneur in the audience and the second oldest on the Forbes rich list, even a bullish domestic business tycoon still doesn't dare to pose too much in front of Han Hao.

Age is not a problem, grades are counted, everyone is an old fox who has been in business for many years, and knows that strength means the right to speak.

Therefore, as soon as Han Hao appeared, many people took the initiative to greet him, and Han Hao's single-handedly entry into the car field monopolized by state-owned enterprises was enough to be a model for other private entrepreneurs on the scene. Everyone is from a private enterprise, so they naturally know how much wisdom and strength it takes to break the monopoly of state-owned enterprises.

Jin Yangyong, who was sitting on the side, saw Han Hao's appearance causing the audience to be restless, and he couldn't help but snort at the corner of his mouth.

Brilliance also has a stake in Minsheng Bank, and Jin Yangyong holds a 2.8% stake, so he also attended the conference.

The two major automobile groups, Zhonghua and Brilliance, are currently fighting each other in many fields, with the scenery against the Jinbei and the China against the right way, which belong to the two camps that are fighting happily. Now that China's "Qin" is advancing by leaps and bounds, and the Chinese scenery continues to encroach on the market of Jinbei sea lions, how can Jin Yangyong face it calmly in his heart.

If Han Hao hadn't appeared, then he would have stood in the middle of the stage to accept everyone's congratulations. Han Hao, who thought he was a small role, has now grown into a towering tree, and even began to compete with himself for sunlight and nutrients.

Han Hao saw Jin Yangyong and took the initiative to nod at him, how fierce the fight was in the mall, but the scene between the bigwigs still had to be said. After all, everyone is a person with status, and they will not pull down their faces and turn their faces like street gangsters. What's more, although the competition between Zhonghua and Brilliance is fierce, they are still alive and well, and they are not in a situation of life and death.

responded to Han Hao with a smile, Jin Yangyong sighed in his heart that this little fox is really different from the past, enough to be on an equal footing with the domestic bigwigs. However, he is also secretly proud in his heart, the basic framework of the negotiations between Brilliance and Rover has been settled, and the two sides will start specific negotiations, and Rover has made it clear that Brilliance is its only partner in China. After getting Rover, presumably BMW will win extra points, and naturally the BMW project will fall to Brilliance.

At that time, we have to let the people of the whole country see who is the first person in China's automobile!

The new board of directors of Minsheng Bank is 18 people, including 9 shareholder directors, 6 independent directors and 3 executive directors, and the election method will also be equal election. In other words, in the election of 9 shareholder directors, as long as the relevant shareholders have the right to nominate them, the nominee will basically be elected. In accordance with the Company Law and the Articles of Association of Minsheng Bank, shareholders holding more than 4% of the shares, individually or jointly, have the right to nominate candidates for directors to the general meeting of shareholders.

Therefore, Han Hao definitely has a right to nominate and enter the board of directors to represent his interests and reflect his will. He plans to make himself the director and see for himself the depth of the Minsheng Bank.

Sure enough, as soon as the meeting began, the three factions quarreled and began to compete for future leadership.
