PS. Present today's update, by the way, pull a vote for the "starting point" 515 fan festival, everyone has 8 votes, and the vote will also give the starting point coin, kneel and beg everyone to support and appreciate!

Henry: This is already a threat to Chiguoguo, and the implication is that if you don't agree with my acquisition of Lockheed and Martin Marietta, then I will favor the Eastern Consortium.

The California consortium also owns a number of arms companies, including Lockheed, Litton Industries and Northrop, which are among the top 10 arms dealers and exporters in the United States. In its early years, the California consortium relied on the arms industry to make its fortune, rapidly accumulating capital, and eventually becoming an important force that could counter the eastern consortium. As a result, California has become the largest arms production base in the United States!

Brent Gus and the others looked at each other, not knowing how to answer for a moment. Henry Williams had more money and influence than the California consortium, and if he had favored the Eastern consortium, then the control of Bank of America would eventually fall into the hands of the Eastern consortium.

Losing control of the Bank of America, the California consortium will lose its financial backbone, which will be an incomparably heavy blow!

Brent Gus said: "Mr. Williams, please let us think about it for a while. ”

"No problem, please get back to me as soon as possible, I don't have much patience!" replied Henry with a grin.

Brent Gus nodded, "Okay, we'll get back to you as soon as possible!"

Brent Gus then left Williams Bank with a group of men.

After Henry waited for them to leave, a smile couldn't help but hang on the corner of his mouth, hehe, grasping the weakness of the California consortium, not afraid that they would not give in.

Henry is thinking about what company to buy after acquiring Lockheed Martin. Then. A name popped up in my head, "Lesles-Royce"!

That's right, it's Rolls-Royce!

Isn't Rolls-Royce the world's top ultra-luxury car manufacturer? What does it have to do with aerospace airlines? In fact, it has a lot to do with it, Rolls-Royce is also involved in the field of aircraft engine manufacturing, and is the world's best engine manufacturer, and even Boeing, which has incomparable technology, is using Rolls-Royce engines!

"Come on. It looks like I've been driving my Ford for a long time, and it's time to change it!" said Henry.

How can Ford cars compare with Rolls-Royce, and the price of a Ford car is simply dropped.

Rolls-Royce is a symbol of elegance and nobility in the automobile kingdom, no matter how old the Rolls-Royce style is, how expensive it is, there is still no challenger.

Wealthy people don't necessarily become Rolls-Royce owners, and the car-making company is luxurious enough to choose its customers. Well-known people in the literary and artistic circles, science and technology circles, well-known entrepreneurs can have white, and high-ranking government officials at or above the ministerial level, world-renowned entrepreneurs and social celebrities can drive silver. The black Rolls-Royce is only for kings, queens, heads of government, prime ministers and cabinet members.

Henry happened to remember that due to the poor management of Rolls-Royce, the British Vickers Group, the parent company of Rolls-Royce, planned to sell it in recent years, and then BMW and Volkswagen in Germany competed to buy it.

Thinking of this, Henry immediately sent a negotiation team from the British branch to contact the Vickers Group, saying that he wanted to buy Rolls-Royce.

Henry then took a sip of coffee in his office, just taking a sip. He was reminded of the fact that Bugatti had declared bankruptcy in 1995. Earlier than Rolls-Royce. Henry couldn't help but shake his head, good things appeared one after another, and the heavens and the Buddha took the blame, since they entered the luxury car industry, how could they give competitors the opportunity to enhance their strength!

Accepted!

Received them all!!

Henry then ordered a takeover request from Bugatti.

After hanging up, Henry drank the rest of his coffee. He shook his head and sighed slightly, Rolls-Royce and Bugatti "don't have the same fate", they are also bankrupt, and Rolls-Royce is being scrambled. And Bugatti didn't have anyone to ...... It took several years for the Bugatti brand to be acquired by Volkswagen.

At the end of November, the weather turned cold, and the cold wind outside the window was like a knife, blowing the bare branches of the trees.

The Bugatti takeover went so smoothly that Henry offered the company's creditors and shareholders $100 million, which they immediately agreed. However, the acquisition of Rolls-Royce is in big trouble!

Henry just knew that Rolls-Royce was not doing well and had been losing money for many years, and the parent company, Vickers Group, wanted to sell it. However, Henry didn't expect that there would be so many curves in it!

It turned out that Rolls-Royce had Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engines and Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. However, BMW controlled Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engine Company in 1990, while Vickers Group only controlled Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, and what is even more confusing is that the brand name of Rolls-Royce belongs to Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engines, so if Rolls-Royce cars produced by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars want to use the Rolls-Royce brand name, they need to be authorized! However, although the name of the car does not belong to Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, the car logo belongs to Rolls-Royce Motor Cars!

Well, it's complicated!

However, one thing surprised Henry, it turned out that Rollslath Motor Cars actually had a big brand - Bentley Cars!

Henry thought about it, his original intention was to buy Rolls-Royce, get its aircraft engines, and buy Rolls-Royce cars by the way, but now depending on the situation, he must buy Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engines!

Henry shook his head and made another takeover offer to BMW, paying $1 billion to buy Rolls-Royce Aircraft Engines.

However, BMW has also coveted Rolls-Royce cars for a long time. It knew that Henry was going to buy the Les-Royce Motors, so how could it sell the Les-Royce Aircraft Engine Company to him! Not long after, the BMW Company replied to Henry that it would not accept the takeover offer and would not even have a chance to negotiate!

When Henry heard this, he was immediately stunned.

"BMW is so awesome, do you want Lao Tzu to develop Tesla cars and overturn you?"

No matter, buy Rolls-Royce Motor Cars first, although there is no Rolls-Royce name, but there is a Rolls-Royce logo, and there are Bentley cars!!

Henry thought to himself, his brother can't produce Rolls-Royce cars, and BMW can't think about it.

Subsequently, Henry continued to launch acquisitions of Vickers Group, and Volkswagen and BMW also joined the bidding, but Henry, who had deep pockets, paid $850 million for a single price, and instantly killed two of them!

When BMW saw the success of Henry's acquisition, it was furious and immediately announced that it would stop supplying engines to Rolls-Royce Motor Cars.

Henry laughed disdainfully, as if it was very rare, the car engine seems to be your BMW?
