Chapter 608: The Observatory Explodes

For two days, Jiang Bo continued to go to the Geneva Motor Show to see the car.

However, because the good car was almost swept on the first day, Jiang Bo didn't see any new and brilliant cars in the next two days.

But it was also ordered for more than two dozen cars.

After that, Jiang Bo spent another three days browsing the attractions near Geneva before planning to leave for China.

On March 26th, Jiang Bo sat on the terrace of the hotel, drinking wine, eating small barbecue, looking at the Alps and the big fountain in the middle of the lake in the evening, feeling comfortable and comfortable.

Linda and Yang Simei were long gone, and Jiang Bo sent them away after making them cry that night.

Opening the system to take a look at the consumption value, Jiang Bo muttered in a low voice: "The consumption value is about 540,000, but the batch of cars is transported back to China, although it is not used as a commodity, it will still pay a lot of taxes......

Jiang Bo is a little unhappy about buying a car abroad and transporting it back to China to pay taxes, but there is no way, if you don't pay taxes, you can't ship it back, and it doesn't make the slightest sense to buy a car in Geneva.

Moreover, even if you don't come to Geneva to buy a car, if you buy this kind of luxury car in China, the relevant car purchase tax should not be less, and that kind of commercial car will be taxed twice, and the price is higher in comparison.

Therefore, as long as you want to buy such imported cars, it is impossible not to pay taxes, which makes Jiang Bo have a strong urge to buy a car company, and then move the factory to China and build cars in China.

As soon as this stubble was mentioned, Jiang Bo asked Jian Pengfei to go to the UK to contact the people of McLaren Technology Group in the past few days and put forward the intention of acquisition.

There are three major McLaren Group projects, the first being McLaren's F1 team, the second being McLaren's car manufacturing company and the third being McLaren's Applied Technologies.

If you want to buy it, you have to buy all three of them together, Jiang Bo only wants car manufacturing companies, but obviously McLaren Group will not put it alone.

There is great resistance to the acquisition of the entire group, and although it is not listed, the equity composition of the McLaren Group is not single, and there are many investment shareholders in addition to the founder.

At the beginning, Apple took a fancy to McLaren's application technology and invested in the acquisition of the entire McLaren, but it was unsuccessful.

Therefore, it is very difficult for Jiangbo to complete the acquisition of McLaren Group.

However, even if McLaren Group is now wholly owned, Jiang Bo will not be able to come up with that much money.

According to the valuation given by Ma Jingping, McLaren Group's current shareholders' equity, that is, the valuation of net assets, is about 20 billion to 30 billion RMB.

And Jiang Bo doesn't have that much money now, and the account balance is less than 19 billion, which is still a little short.

Of course, if McLaren Group really has a chance to win it all, Jiang Bo actually doesn't mind letting Black Bones make some money to complete the acquisition, but it is impossible for people to sell them all, so this is purely a chicken talk.

However, according to the news reported by Jian Pengfei, Mercedes-Benz's parent company holds 40% of McLaren's shares, but for some reason, Mercedes-Benz's parent company actually plans to throw away all these shares.

McLaren didn't have that much money and couldn't take over so many shares, so Mercedes-Benz's parent company held a bidding meeting.

Jiang Bo didn't think about it, he was going to spend money to lose, so he directly asked Jian Pengfei to participate in the bidding.

As long as he can win this 40% of the shares, he can become the majority shareholder of McLaren Group, although he still cannot interfere in McLaren's administrative affairs, but there is no problem for McLaren Automobile Manufacturing Company to build a supercar for himself.

Moreover, since they have all become shareholders, as long as they are willing to spend money and reach the price, it is only a matter of time before they take over the McLaren Group.

Hey, in this kind of capitalist country, there are no companies that can't be done with money.

If it doesn't work, it just means that the bid is not enough.

Therefore, this McLaren Group, Jiang Bo is going to decide!

......

After dinner, the night covered the land, Jiang Bo took a locally bought tablet and swiped the news.

More than an hour passed.

Just when Jiang Bo was watching the business introduction of an American aerospace company with relish.

Bang!

As the ground shook, a loud bang swept through the town of Geneva like thunder.

Jiang Bo squinted, frowned, hurriedly threw away the tablet, got up and came to the terrace, staring in the southeast direction, the sound came from the southeast.

Because it was night, the light was dim, and even if his eyesight was excellent, he could not see the distance when there was very little visible light.

"It's like the gunpowder factory exploded, and it's a bit similar to the meteorite hitting the ground on the outskirts of Yangcheng last year, but what happened?" Jiang Bo was quite curious.

Taking out his mobile phone, Jiang Bo dialed Ma Jingping's phone.

"Boss?"

"There was an explosion on my side just now, the location is southeast of my hotel, you can check and see if you can find anything. Jiang Bo commanded.

"Understood. ”

Half an hour later.

Jiang Bo heard the howling of groups of police cars coming from the street outside, and looked out the window to find several police cars whizzing through the street, looking like they were chasing someone.

At this time, Ma Jingping returned to the phone and said, "Boss, I found it." ”

"What's the situation?"

"Two minutes ago, local officials in Geneva announced that a chemical plant near VendΓ¨vres had exploded, and that one dead and two were injured. However, according to my hacking of their surveillance system, what I found was different. ”

"Don't sell it, say it quickly. ”

Ma Jingping replied: "I specially asked Black Bone No. 1 to hack into all the surveillance systems near Wangdevre, and found that there are no chemical factories near Wangdevre from their database, but I found that there are no chemical factories near Wangdevre.

Through big data screening and comparing the movement of people, I found that the site of the explosion was not a chemical factory, but an observatory converted from a golf course. ”

"Observatory?"

"Yes, this is a new observatory, which was completed just two months ago, but according to the results of the analysis of Black Bone 1, the observatory should not have been built.

In general, the place where the observatory is built needs to be open and less cloudy, like the Southern Observatory in Europe, built in the high mountain area of Chile, which is conducive to the flow of various electromagnetic waves, rays and particles in the universe through the atmosphere and clouds to the ground, so as to achieve passive observation of the universe.

However, the weather in Geneva is usually unpredictable, and there are very few cosmic waves that can reach the ground, so it is not possible to choose this place to build an observatory, but it was built.

Then there is only one possibility, the observatory is not used to receive electromagnetic waves from the universe, but to emit electromagnetic waves of specific frequencies and wavelengths. ”

"Emitting electromagnetic waves?" Jiang Bo frowned: "Then why was it destroyed again, and the local officials still concealed the truth?"

"I can't find out this on my side. ”

"I know. But it doesn't feel as simple as it seems......"

Hanging up the phone, Jiang Bo paced around the room, involuntarily thinking about the whole thing.

It is very likely that the observatory, which was built just two months ago, was blown up before the program was completed and the experiment had not even begun.

This should not be self-destruction, but destroyed by external forces.

However, a good observatory, what is it doing to destroy it, is it afraid of the plot in "The Three-Body Problem"?

Jiang Bo thinks that this should not be the reason, because there are so many observatories in the world that can emit radio waves, and a large number of astronomical scientists are emitting electromagnetic waves into the universe every year in order to find extraterrestrial civilizations, and at the same time, the location of the earth is also exposed.

So, it's not bad to have such an observatory here in Geneva.

Even in the United States, NASA has been ridiculed many times because of the Voyager project.

But there is not enough evidence for the specific reason, and Jiang Bo cannot find the truth based on imagination and speculation alone.

Knock knock!

Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.

Jiang Bo's heart tightened, and he asked in fluent French, "Who, is there something wrong?"

"Police rounds, please open the door and cooperate with our inspection. A man's voice came from outside the door.
