Wicks Group Headquarters.

In the letter of intent to acquire the Wix Group, Zhou Jingming had already explained the time of the meeting between the two parties, so the Wix Industrial Group was also prepared early, and the person responsible for the meeting with Zhou Jingming was Williams, in addition to Williams, the legal representatives of the Wix Group and the rest of the personnel were also present.

It can be seen that both sides attach great importance to this meeting, which can be seen from the lineup of talks sent by both sides, and the actual controllers of the two companies are all present at this meeting.

"I have long heard that Mr. Zhou is eloquent, but when I saw it today, it was really extraordinary!" Williams looked at Zhou Jingming and said with a smile.

Prior to this, Williams had only seen photos of Zhou Jingming in newspapers and Time magazine, and this was the first time he had seen Zhou Jingming in real person.

Mr. Williams is false, and these are nothing more than media exaggerations. Zhou Jingming smiled and replied modestly.

In any case, the scale of Wickers Industries' business in the UK is huge, and there is no way for Tianming Automobile Company to compare with it, and Zhou Jingming does not think that he can play in front of this 60-year-old entrepreneur.

"As early as five years ago, I heard of Mr. Zhou's name, at that time your company's main model in Europe, it was only the Kirin car, after so many years, the Kirin car is still selling hot, and the SUV you launched this year has become the biggest dark horse in the international automobile market, which is really admirable. ”

Zhou Jingming's business experience can be called a legendary drama, especially at the level of China's automobile industry at that time, the company developed Tianming Company into today's scale, Williams must admit it, or do it, under the same conditions, it will definitely not be able to achieve the same achievements as Zhou Jingming.

"Mr. Williams, the purpose of our visit this time, you must know, then I won't go around the corner, for the Rolls-Royce company under the Weeks Group, we Tianming Automobile Company has always appreciated, especially its Rolls-Royce and Bentley two car brands, which are legends in the automotive industry, so I hope to be able to buy the entire Rolls-Royce company from the Weeks Group. After some greetings, Zhou Jingming officially entered the negotiations.

"Since Mr. Zhou wants to acquire Rolls-Royce, he must also know the Rolls-Royce brand, Rolls-Royce, as a national treasure ultra-luxury car brand in China, is a special car designated by our royal family, and our Royal Highness is also amazed by the Rolls-Royce brand, which Mr. Zhou should know. Williamston paused, then smiled at Zhou Jingming, and continued,

"I have already read the offer given by Tianming Company for this acquisition, although 500 million US dollars is a lot, but I think that if you want to buy the entire Rolls-Royce company, it is still a lot worse, Mr. Zhou understands what I mean, right?"

Williams naturally could see that Zhou Jingming wanted to take Rolls-Royce into his portfolio, although he was very satisfied with the offer of $500 million, but he would not be too much money, since it was a negotiation, he had to raise the price again.

Zhou Jingming had long expected that the other party would not agree to this acquisition so easily, so he just smiled slightly, "Of course I know what the Rolls-Royce brand means, but as far as I know, Rolls-Royce has been losing money for many years, and its sales are not as good as before. ”

"It is true that Rolls-Royce has been losing money year after year, but Mr. Zhou should not forget that the entire Rolls-Royce company, including Rolls-Royce and Bentley, the two ultra-luxury car brands, wants to buy these two brands and all the production workshops and equipment for 500 million dollars, I'm afraid it's not very reasonable, right?" Williams continued.

In the following time, the two sides had in-depth negotiations on the purchase price and the rest of the details, Williams always emphasized the fact that 500 million US dollars was not enough to buy the entire Rolls-Royce company, but Zhou Jingming also insisted on the offer of 500 million US dollars, anyway, now he is the only company offer, Williams has no choice.

"With all due respect, Mr. Williams, if you think that the offer of $500 million is not enough to impress you and the Wicks Group, then you can only find another high, and our company's offer is $500 million, and it will not change again. Zhou Jingming stared into Williams' eyes and said solemnly.

Through more than an hour of negotiations, Zhou Jingming has basically figured out Williams's psychology, compared to himself, Williams and Wicks Group want to sell Rolls-Royce more often, so as long as Zhou Jingming insists on this price and does not let go, the first one who can't hold his breath must be the other party!

Sure enough, after listening to Zhou Jingming's words, Williams hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Zhou, if that's not the case, I'll go back and discuss it with the people on the board of directors, and at this time tomorrow, we will negotiate again, do you think it's okay?"

"Absolutely. Zhou Jingming smiled and nodded.

Next, Williams took Zhou Jingming and others to visit the Weeks Group, and after the luncheon, Zhou Jingming and Ma Xudong and others left the Weeks Group to prepare for the second wave of negotiations tomorrow.

"Mr. Zhou, it seems that the Weeks Group is in a hurry to sell Rolls-Royce, and during the negotiations, I can clearly feel that their attitude is not tough. On the way back, Ma Xudong said to Zhou Jingming.

"Rolls-Royce has caused so much damage to the Wicks Group every year, and of course they want to get rid of that baggage. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile, "If nothing else, with two rounds of negotiations at most, we will be able to successfully merge the Les-Royce Company with 500 million US dollars." ”

"If we can really buy Rolls-Royce for 500 million US dollars, it will be 100 million US dollars less than we expected!" Ma Xudong couldn't help but smile and said.

"Let's see what their board of directors has to say. "This is just the beginning of the negotiations, and Zhou Jingming can wait a little longer.

And Williams, after sending Zhou Jingming away, also quickly convened the board of directors of Weeks Group in the afternoon, ready to discuss whether to sell Rolls-Royce to Tianming Automobile Company, and Rooney, as a member of the board of directors, also attended this meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, just this morning, I met with Zhou Jingming, the actual controller of Tianming Automobile Company, who is willing to invest $500 million to acquire Rolls-Royce, and I would like to hear your opinion. As soon as the meeting began, Williams said straight away.

As soon as Williams said this, the conference room immediately boiled, all along, the board of directors has been thinking about how to deal with Rolls-Royce, and now someone has taken the initiative to make an offer, which is for Wicks Group. Definitely good news.

"I think the price is completely acceptable, half a billion dollars is a lot. ”

"That's right, Tianming Automobile Company has gained momentum in the European market in recent years, and selling Rolls-Royce to him is a perfect ending for both of us. ”

The majority of the board of directors agreed with Tianming's acquisition.

"I don't agree to sell Rolls-Royce to Tianming Motor Company. At this moment, a strange voice suddenly sounded in the conference room, and it was Rooney, the current chairman of Rolls-Royce Inc., who spoke.
