Li Zetian looked at Norbert Resef at this time and said, "Norbert Resef, I have proposed to use unmanned vehicles to deliver goods before, how do you plan to design this unmanned car, I want to hear your thoughts." ”

"Okay, Mr. Li," Norbert Resef nodded, and began to say, "The unmanned delivery vehicle completes the loading of goods at the distribution station, and can carry out autonomous path planning according to the destination, find the shortest path and avoid congested road sections; ”

"Well, please continue!" Li Zetian nodded.

"After automatically driving to the designated location of the target building, the unmanned delivery vehicle will notify the user to receive the goods through the APP on the mobile phone or mobile phone text message, etc., and the user can enter the pick-up code in front of the unmanned vehicle to open the cargo compartment and take away his package. The cargo compartment of the unmanned delivery vehicle can be designed in the same way as the electronic locker in the supermarket," Norbert Resef thought for a moment and added: "However, because some of the packages are very large, I think that the unmanned delivery vehicle should have multiple cargo compartments of different sizes, and even unmanned delivery vehicles that can be specially developed to deliver large packages......

"Well, very good, very thoughtful!" Li Zetian nodded with a smile, "Then what do you think about how unmanned delivery vehicles can avoid various obstacles...... As the saying goes, 'safety first', avoiding car accidents should be the most basic and important requirement for unmanned delivery vehicles!!"

Norbert Resef pondered for a while before answering: "I think radar + sensors can be considered to ensure the safety of the driving distance! For example, the unmanned delivery vehicle is equipped with multiple visual sensors and radars, and then uses artificial intelligence technology to analyze the surrounding environment, generate a parallax map and other ways to build a three-dimensional environment, detect the size and distance of obstacles, so as to control the unmanned vehicle to avoid obstacles! And with the gradual deepening of machine learning, it will become more and more adaptable to more and more complex environments!!

Li Zetian was still very satisfied with Norbert Reseff's answer. "Very good, your idea, I very much agree! Hehe, once the unmanned delivery vehicle is successfully developed, it can solve the 'last mile' distribution problem, greatly improving the distribution efficiency! However, there are still some special problems that need attention......

“Mr· Li, please speak!"

Li Zetian pouted and smiled, "For example, touching porcelain, stealing, maybe someone even dares to steal an unmanned delivery vehicle......"

Norbert Resef was stunned and said, "Theft is easy to understand. Li, what is touching porcelain? I don't know much about this......

Li Zetian smiled dryly, how to explain this, it seems that "touching porcelain" has not become popular yet. Li Zetian thought for a while, and then explained to Norbert Reseff: "Porcelain touching refers to some opportunistic and extortive behaviors, such as deliberately colliding with motor vehicles, taking the opportunity to blackmail, and defrauding compensation ......"

“Mr· Li, probably not......" Norbert Resef was a little dumbfounded.

No?!

Li Zetian couldn't help laughing, just kidding, there are countless Chinese porcelain armies, and they can't be prevented, all kinds of fancy porcelain touching are shocking!

"Believe me, Norbert Resef, unmanned delivery vehicles must take precautions, or else...... BMW is afraid that the underwear it lost will be gone!" Li Zetian smiled and made a joke.

Norbert Reseff couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and then nodded, "Okay, Mr. Li, don't worry, I'll take care of it!"

"Hmm. Li Zetian smiled, and suddenly said: "Oh, by the way, we can't just aim at unmanned delivery vehicles in the city, cars, trucks, pickups, SUVs, buses, and buses are all products that we should develop! BMW wants to be a supergiant in the industry, and naturally the product is too single!!

Li Zetian imagined in his heart that there was no car that BMW could not build, and if it could not be built, then he would buy the other party's company.

Norbert Resef smiled bitterly, it was easier said than done, but since the big boss said so, Norbert Resef could only do what he was told. But then again, if BMW can really develop other products, it will be good for BMW.

At the moment, BMW has a lot of cash, but it needs to be spent quickly to speed up BMW's growth.

Norbert Resef thought for a moment and said: "If BMW develops these cars by itself, there is a lack of brand, technology, market, and channels. Daimler's Mercedes-Benz brand and heavy-duty truck business in Germany are known worldwide, while Chrysler in the United States is the world's leader in the field of utility off-road vehicles, vans and light trucks, so I propose to acquire DaimlerChrysler. Whereas...... The reason for this suggestion is that there is a big problem with DaimlerChrysler at the moment!"

DaimlerChrysler AG was formed in 1998 by the merger of Daimler AG of Germany and Chrysler AG of the United States. DaimlerChrysler's stock price has fallen from $108.56 at the beginning of the merger to $26, and the total market value of the new company has shrunk from $108.3 billion at the peak to $27.3 billion, which is not as good as the market value of Daimler before the merger!"

When it comes to German luxury brand cars, I believe that the name of "BBA" is known to everyone. Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Audi, the three rivals, can be described as a three-legged stand and do not give in to each other.

Norbert Resef became more and more excited at the thought that BMW would be able to acquire Mercedes-Benz. At this time, even his tone when he spoke was full of intense excitement, and he said, "Mr. · Chrysler's shareholders have been disappointed by its huge losses and long-term earnings prospects, as well as heavy social security pressures on employees. If the acquisition of DaimlerChrysler AG is initiated at this time, it will be easier for not only the shareholders, but also the EU and US governments to accept it!"

When Li Zetian heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up. Now is really a great opportunity to buy DaimlerChrysler, if in another year or two, Daimler will kick Chrysler away, and then, Li Zetian wants to buy Daimler AG in Germany, it will be a little difficult.

Of course, if you buy DaimlerChrysler now, it will be like being a takeover, and Chrysler's huge losses are still a big problem. However, Li Zetian feels that this problem should be solvable, and Chrysler is also very important to Li Zetian's layout in the automobile market.

BMW and Daimler have a high market share in Europe, but their share in North America is low. Chrysler, on the other hand, has a low market share in Europe, but has a high market share in North America. If these three companies are combined, they will have an extremely large sales network in Europe and North America, and behind this network integration lies huge business potential!!

In addition, although Chrysler is very cheating father, it is the leader in the field of multi-purpose off-road vehicles, vans and light trucks, if it can use the strength of BMW and the resources owned by Li Zetian, then Chrysler's resurrection may not be impossible to achieve!

"Norbert Retheff, let it go, and make a takeover bid to DaimlerChrysler," Li Zetian said loudly to Norbert Reseff, and he also had a hint !!of excitement in his heart.

Once BMW and DaimlerChrysler merge, even though it is not as good as Japan's Toyota Motor Corporation, the title of the world's second largest automobile company is absolute! In this way, Li Zetian will be even more confident in defeating Toyota!

"With my brother here, how can I make Japanese cars dominate the world!!" Li Zetian said secretly in his heart, with a weird smile on the corner of his mouth.

Norbert Resef felt a chill for no apparent reason......

……

DaimlerChrysler AG.

"What? Really? BMW is going to buy DaimlerChrysler?!"

"What are the conditions they are proposing?"

"BMW AG has offered to acquire DaimlerChrysler AG for $5 billion plus 10% of its common stock, and to assume all of DaimlerChrysler's debts. Oh, of course, mostly Chrysler's debt...... $7 billion in debt to the bank!"

At the shareholders' meeting, the major shareholders were surprised.

"DaimlerChrysler's market capitalization is just over $20 billion, and BMW's offer is really tempting!"

"yes, do you say yes?"

The crowd hesitated.

The CEO of DaimlerChrysler looked at everyone and analyzed in a deep voice: "At the moment, DaimlerChrysler has two decisions to choose from. One is to split DaimlerChrysler and sell Chrysler, as discussed earlier, and the other is naturally to accept BMW's acquisition. ”

"If we choose to split the company, then we will face two problems, the first is that Chrysler is a very hot potato, with huge losses year after year, no one dares to take over, if Chrysler cannot be sold in time, Daimler will be dragged down; As we all know, BMW has acquired the Chronos· Li's investment, Daimler's situation will only become more difficult in the future......"

"If you choose to accept the acquisition of BMW, you can get a big share of the money. In addition, we will also hold a 10% stake in BMW, and with the rise of BMW, our shares will become more and more valuable!"

If you analyze the pros and cons this time, you are actually more inclined to choose DaimlerChrysler AG to accept the acquisition of BMW. Of course, the CEO of DaimlerChrysler AG said this because Chronos· Li's influence is too great, so powerful that even competitors are afraid. Throughout the past 30 years, no matter what industry he is involved in, he has swept thousands of troops!

A veteran economic critic on Wall Street once said: "When Chronos· When Li wants to enter the industry, you should be aware that danger has already come!!"

"Anyone who faces Chronos· Li's competitors will all fall apart in the end!"

“……”

At present, Li Zetian has first acquired BMW and Bosch, and now he wants to acquire DaimlerChrysler, and at first glance he has a great plan! DaimlerChrysler is in turmoil, cannot withstand the toss, and if he is not careful, he will lose everything. Choosing to accept the acquisition of BMW AG is the safest course of action, and DaimlerChrysler AG cannot afford to take risks.

The shareholders' meeting went exceptionally well, with the vast majority of shareholders expressing their acceptance of BMW's takeover.

On the same day, DaimlerChrysler called BMW, and the two sides entered the negotiation stage.

Germany, the European Union and even the United States all need to know about the acquisition of two companies of this size.

After the news came out, the industry, the media and the people who eat melons were shocked.

"My Chronos· Li is so awesome!!" a fan girl said excitedly.

"Damn, is this going to buy the rhythm of the world? Li, you hang like this, does your mother know?"

"Give Chronos· The current automobile industry is simply a pool of stagnant water, the car is expensive, the maintenance fee is expensive, and the emissions of gases pollute the environment! People like Li break these rotten and unbearable, change the world, and bring benefits to the world!"

"Support for Chronos· Li acquires DaimlerChrysler AG, and I am an ordinary employee of DaimlerChrysler AG"

"Hehe, Chrysler is losing a lot every year, congratulations to Chronos· Li wants to be Chrysler's pick-up man!"

“……”

There was a lot of buzz on the Internet, and the headlines on the front page were about BMW's takeover of DaimlerChrysler.

At this moment, the executives of Toyota Motor Corporation of Japan are sitting in the conference room, all with serious faces.

The bald, short old man at the head frowned and said in a deep voice, "Everyone, Chronos· Li has made a big push into the automotive field, and Toyota's position has been seriously threatened!"

A man in his thirties sneered: "Hmph, Toyota can stand on the top of the world's automobiles with its unparalleled strength! Li thinks that he can be compared to Toyota Motor Corporation by acquiring a few companies, but I think he is wishful thinking!"

"Oda is right, if you can dominate the automotive industry by acquiring a few companies, it will be too simple. Before the merger, Daimler and Chrysler were very strong, but after the merger, the new company seems to be very powerful, and it is almost going to catch up with our Toyota. Hehe, but what about now? The market value of hundreds of billions of dollars has now fallen to more than $20 billion, how ridiculous!!"

"Hehe, we'll make Chronos· Li knew how deep the water was in the automotive industry, and he would understand once and for all that the mighty Toyota Motor Company was invincible!!"

“Chronos· Li has always been rampant, but this time, we want to let him fail in the automotive industry and bring him a shame that he will never be able to erase!!"

"Hahahaha...... Toyota will be the nightmare of his life!"

“……”

The old man at the top of the list reminded: "It's good for everyone to have self-confidence, but you must not take Chronos· Li。 ”

"President Toyota, please rest assured that we will redouble our efforts to make Chronos· Li knows how good we are!"

"President, I thought of being able to defeat Chronos· Li, I'm excited, I want to put all my energy into the company! Li, I'm seppuku!"

"Yo Xi!!" the president nodded in satisfaction and praised.

……

……

BMW's negotiations with DaimlerChrysler were swift and the German government was happy to facilitate the matter. Rather than seeing DaimlerChrysler decline, it is better to find her a good boss.

The negotiations lasted more than a month, and on March 4, the two sides signed an agreement, BMW officially acquired DaimlerChrysler, and BMW offered an additional $2.5 billion on the original basis, that is, $7.5 billion + 10% of BMW's shares and assume all the previous debts of DaimlerChrysler.

On the day of the successful acquisition, the news was announced. At the same time, the reporter conducted an interview with the top management of Toyota Motor Corporation in Japan.

Toyota's top management said that Chronos· Li will definitely encounter Waterloo in the automotive industry, he is a nouveau riche and clown who only knows how to wave money, and he does not know how deep the water is in the automotive industry, and failure is inevitable!

The news was even more exciting than BMW's acquisition of DaimlerChrysler, and it soon spread around the world, causing an uproar around the world!!

Upstart and clowns???

When Li Zetian heard the news, he couldn't help but scold his mother: "XXXXXX (being harmonized)"
