"Philip, what do you think is the probability that I will succeed in the Rolls-Royce acquisition?" Li Feng suddenly turned back to the topic and asked Anschutz.

"John, needless to say, you have already said this to BMW, preferring to abolish the Rolls-Royce brand and develop Bentley independently, coupled with your attitude of never giving up on acquiring Rolls-Royce, I think BMW should know how to choose.

If you really let you buy it, and you are not willing to give up Rolls-Royce, BMW will either give up Rolls-Royce and reach an agreement with you, or they will be able to completely give up the Rolls-Royce brand with deep pockets.

You must know that this brand is worth a lot of money, and I don't think the board members will give it up. Therefore, as long as you can successfully acquire Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, then your strategy of owning the Rolls-Royce brand is the easiest to achieve, and the key depends on whether Volkswagen will compete with you.

However, you have one of the biggest advantages, that is, you are a person who invests in the acquisition, and you don't need to think too much, and Volkswagen is a company after all, and you need to consider the issue of capital contribution, and for the Victor Group, it is nothing more than selling at a high price.

Therefore, as long as you come up with a capital that is impossible for Volkswagen, and now you have an agreement with Rolls-Royce management, then your acquisition of Rolls-Royce is basically a foregone conclusion.

I think you should take the initiative and contact all parties to see if you can reach some feasible agreements, you are not just yourself, is it too weak in the automotive industry, if you can cooperate with BMW or Volkswagen, it should be a good choice for your car brand promotion. ”

"Okay, then I'll have a good chat with the Victor Group, I don't have so much time to spend here, if I can get it done as soon as possible, I think they'll know how to choose." Li Feng thought for a moment, and then said with a smile.

"OK, good luck!"

"Cheers!"

……

Before you know it, more than a week has passed, and today is the day of the final showdown.

After chatting with Anschutz for a while, Li Feng took the initiative and exchanged views with the management of Victor Group, saying that he did not have so much time to spend here, and made an ultimatum, if he dragged on like this, he would consider withdrawing from the acquisition.

Similarly, Li Feng also visited the new Prime Minister and a powerful person in London during this time, such as with the Prime Minister, facing real estate projects sent to his door, such as the London Eye, etc., and temporarily reached an agreement that his real estate company will invest in real estate projects in London.

For example, with Prince Charles and the nobles, Li Feng also proposed, for example, to buy a Premier League team in London, and was even willing to add the word 'Royal' to the prefix of the team, which made Prince Charles very excited, and even later Li Feng got the queen's phone number, and was praised by the queen on the phone.

In short, after receiving the support of the British royal family and the government, plus the Victor Group also wanted to solve it as soon as possible, and then directly sent an invitation to Li Feng and companies interested in Rolls-Royce, and directly completed the acquisition of Rolls-Royce through bidding.

However, what is not clear to the Vickers Group is that Li Feng left the UK before and secretly went to France, where he reached a cooperation plan with the two major German car companies.

Once again at the Duke of Westminster's mansion, the three companies that were invited gathered again, looking at the crowd gathered at the last party, Li Feng felt in his heart that it was finally time to see the real chapter.

……

"Ladies and gentlemen, the purpose of coming here today is very clear, I will not say more, the current situation of the Reislayce Automobile Company, the three representatives should be very clear, so ladies and gentlemen, let it begin.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, which owns the complete Bentley brand and part of the Rolls-Royce brand, has a reserve price of 500 million pounds, and each price increase shall not be less than 1 million. ”

Sir Wickers, the nominal chairman of Wickers, greeted everyone, and then smiled and said to Li Feng, Volkswagen's Ferdinand Piëch, and BMW's Bernard Breed.

That's right, the leaders of the final bidding three are finally together. However, for the bidding of Vickers Group, in fact, Li Feng and the three of them do not agree very much, so it is not very suitable to bid directly in person.

And 500 million pounds is the reserve price offered by BMW before, so BMW's Bernard glanced at Li Feng and Piëch with a smile, and then waited for the two to bid.

"Mr. Piëch, instead of such a slow price increase, why don't we hurry up and solve it at once, how about it?" Li Feng stood up at this time and proposed to Piëch with a smile.

"Would you like to hear about it?"

"I have a bottom line, until it doesn't exceed 700 million pounds, I will follow, if it does, even if Volkswagen can pay 700 million pounds, I will quit. Li Feng replied with a smile.

……

Sure enough, after listening to Li Feng's words, the three investors were quite calm, but the group of people in the Vickers Group were full of smiles. Obviously, Li Feng's contribution has been recognized by them.

But the Wickers gang may have been happy too soon, and as for the outcome, it was not as rosy as they thought.

"Young man, you're really bold, since you're out of the bottom line, then I'll leave. Ferdinand stood up in anticipation, smiled back, and then said hello to everyone and left.

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Piëch, what do you think, Mr. Bernard?"

"Oh, Mr. Lee's bid clearly exceeded our expectations, so congratulations to Mr. Lee on his successful acquisition of Rolls-Royce Motor Cars. Ferdinand Piëch then stood up, said goodbye to the crowd, and left.

"Mr. Lee, congratulations, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has won the bid for £700 million. Sir Vickers walked up to Li Feng with the people, and then smiled and stretched out his hand.

"Oh, sir, you may be mistaken, I didn't say £700 million. Li Feng replied with a smile.

"Uh..."

Listening to Li Feng's words, Sir Vickers, who was full of smiles, suddenly froze.

……

Seeing that the high-level executives of the Vickers Group all changed their faces in an instant, Wang Siqing, Philip Anschutz, and Mike John, who were beside Li Feng, almost laughed out loud.

The three of them were very clear about Li Feng's plan and the next Rolls-Royce arrangement, thinking that it would not be easy to bargain under their boss.

"Mr. Li, what do you mean, it can't be a reversal, right?" At this time, including government representatives and royal family representatives, they all hesitated a little.

"Oh no, I want to buy, but it can't be my bottom line, can it?"

"Then you just..."

"I just said that it was a bottom-line acquisition, I just expressed my attitude to Volkswagen and BMW, but unfortunately, Volkswagen and BMW withdrew directly, didn't they?

Or, sir, call Mr. Piëch from Volkswagen and Mr. Bernard from BMW now, and perhaps they will be interested in coming back. Li Feng replied with a smile.

"You..."

Listening to Li Feng's words, the management of Vickers Group was speechless for a while.

"Jazz and everybody, don't worry too much, I want to buy Rolls-Royce, and I promise to keep Rolls-Royce in the UK, and even try to carry it forward in the future, but that doesn't mean I want to buy it at a super high price.

Of course, I won't let you suffer losses, I think you should know that BMW's offer of 500 million pounds is actually a reasonable price, but considering the situation, I am willing to buy it at a premium of 10% in accordance with international practice, so that it can be a win-win situation, what do you think?"

Listening to Li Feng's eloquent talk, everyone in the Vickers Group almost spewed out a mouthful of old blood, and now call the representatives of BMW and Volkswagen, how do the two major companies see themselves, besides, there is another Li Feng inserted here.

As for saying that in a fit of anger and saying that it will not be sold, it is impossible. Rolls-Royce's annual losses are at least in tens of millions of pounds per year, and these Brits can't afford to lose, so at this time, they can only pinch their noses and admit it.

……

"Mr. Lee, £550 million is too little, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars is, after all, one of the jewels of our British industry, 650 million. Sir Vickers and the Duke of Westminster looked at each other, and then replied in a deep voice.

"650 million, that's too high, 560 million. ”

"No, 645 million"

“5.55”

“6.40”
