Chapter 0713 - Self-defeating

The reason why Bugatti and Lamborghini were chosen as acquisition targets was not only because Zhou Jingming himself particularly liked these two supercar brands, but also because these two brands were already in trouble, and it would be easier to acquire.

Now that Bugatti has been taken over, and Chrysler wants to open his mouth, Zhou Jingming will definitely not hesitate to give up the acquisition of Lamborghini.

"In this way, if Chrysler really doesn't agree to our offer, wouldn't it be equivalent to giving up the acquisition of Lamborghini? Don't you want to buy these two brands at the same time?" Zhao Ke hurriedly said.

"It would be best if we could buy Lamborghini and Bugatti at the same time, but now we can't match the offer that Chrysler wants, so there is no need to continue negotiations, and from the perspective of the purpose of the acquisition, we have achieved it. Zhou Jingming replied.

The successful acquisition of Lamborghini is not just the icing on the cake, it does not have the effect of helping charcoal, and it is not a necessity for Tianming Group.

"Okay, I got it. Then what are you and Xiao Xu going to go back to China directly?"

Zhou Jingming thought for a while, and then said, "Let's go to Italy to meet you first, and then we will go home together." ”

After a few more words, Zhou Jingming hung up the phone.

"What's the matter, Chrysler is still not satisfied with our offer?" asked Xu Weidong on the side after hanging up the phone.

"Senior brother has just sent the latest offer, and is still waiting for Chrysler's reply. Zhou Jingming replied.

"Listening to what you just said, are you not going to continue to buy Lamborghini?"

Zhou Jingming simply lay on the bed, his head resting on his hands, "As long as Chrysler's asking price is reasonable, we can continue to talk, but if they ask for a sky-high price, they have to give up, and the Americans want to get wool from our Tianming Group, then they are looking for the wrong object." ”

"By the way, tomorrow we will pack up and go to Italy together. ”

***

The next day, after finishing the matter in France, Zhou Jingming and Xu Weidong and others came to Italy and joined Zhao Ke and Ma Xudong and others there.

After arriving at the airport, it was Zhao Ke who personally drove to pick up Zhou Jingming and them.

"I've conveyed your intentions to Chrysler this morning, but there hasn't been any reply yet, do you think they'll agree to our offer?" said Zhao Ke on the way back to the hotel, while driving.

"It's hard to say, with Chrysler's current situation, they have no reason to reject our offer, selling Lamborghini is their best choice, but it is not ruled out that they will wait for a new buyer to make a higher offer, everything is uncertain. Zhou Jingming replied.

As long as no formal agreement is signed, everything is possible.

"New offer?Could it be that in addition to our Tianming Group, there are other companies that also want to acquire Lamborghini?" Zhao Ke asked curiously.

"Absolutely. Zhou Jingming smiled, "Volkswagen is our potential competitor. ”

Speaking of which, Volkswagen was the first European and American automobile companies to have a cooperative relationship with us, but now it is good that they are competing with us in all fields. ”

"There are no permanent friends, only eternal interests, this is normal. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.

As soon as the group walked into the hotel lobby, they saw Ma Xudong hurriedly walking over, "Chairman, Mr. Zhao, when you were not there just now, Chrysler called and said that they agreed to our offer, and they would fly to Italy as soon as possible to discuss the next acquisition with us." ”

As soon as Ma Xudong said this, Zhao Ke was immediately stunned, "Old Ma, what you said is true?"

Not only did they agree to the offer, but they even "deigned" to come to Italy to negotiate with them?

Chrysler: Is this stimulated by anything?

"I wonder too. Not long ago, the attitude was quite tough, why did it suddenly come to a 180-degree turn. Didn't the chairman let us say a few words that worked?" As he spoke, Ma Xudong looked at Zhou Jingming with a surprised expression.

That's amazing, isn't it?

A few simple words to make Chrysler disarm and surrender?

Zhou Jingming also looked at them with a confused expression, "Don't look at me, I really don't know what's going on, and the few words I asked you to reply don't have the rest of the meaning, it's literal!"

Zhou Jingming's meaning is very simple, if you can talk about it, if you can't talk about it, you can pull it, and no one should delay anyone, but looking at the current situation, Chrysler regards these words as a kind of ...... Threat?

And then this threat still worked?

"It should be related to the successful acquisition of Bugatti that we announced yesterday, when we negotiated with them to buy Lamborghini, they didn't know that we were also buying Bugatti at the same time, and now Bugatti has been successfully acquired by us, and Lamborghini has become an alternative, if we don't accept our offer, Chrysler is worried that Lamborghini will really be smashed in his hands. ”

Zhou Jingming quickly figured out the reason for this, Chrysler didn't know that Zhou Jingming wanted to buy Bugatti and Lamborghini at the same time, Tianming Group's announcement yesterday made Chrysler mistakenly think that Zhou Jingming was making preparations with both hands, coupled with the words he said last night, Chrysler also became nervous, and Chrysler, who was in urgent need of funds for the company's operations, naturally couldn't wait to rush to Italy to negotiate with Zhao Ke and them.

"So, this is self-defeating?" Zhao Ke said as he spoke, and suddenly burst out laughing, "I knew it was so good, why did I talk so much nonsense with them!"

"In this way, we should have hinted to them separately that Bugatti or Lamborghini were not the only options when we bought them, so that maybe we could further reduce the purchase price. Xu Weidong on the side also patted his head and said.

Attacking both Artioli and Chrysler and overwhelming them psychologically may really have a miraculous effect.

"Now, Jingming, should we continue to talk to Chrysler, or do we not plan to buy Lamborghini?" Zhao Ke looked at Zhou Jingming and asked.

"Since they are willing to talk to us, then we will naturally continue to buy, didn't I say, to buy Lamborghini and Bugatti at the same time, that is the best result. Zhou Jingming replied with a smile.

"Then should we take the opportunity to push the price down, at least return the price to the level of our first offer?" Zhao Ke continued.

Zhou Jingming thought for a moment, and finally shook his head, "Anyway, it's not much, let's talk about it at the current price, it's best to sign the formal contract within three days, I'm worried that if it continues to drag, Volkswagen is likely to join the competition." ”
