Chapter 120: Fat meat to swallow in one bite

Cao Ping was surprised: "Your father wants to buy Land Rover?"

"Yes!"

"That's great! Ford has set very strict terms for the acquisition, and it must meet more than two bidders and have high financial requirements before it is willing to cooperate with Land Rover to sell the technology of the four-wheel drive system. If your father is interested and has enough financial resources......"

"Wait!"

Li Hao suddenly interrupted him.

Cao Ping looked at him in surprise.

Li Hao said apologetically: "I'm sorry, Mr. Cao." I didn't mean to interrupt you, I know it's rude. But I have to interrupt for a moment, what did you just say, the acquisition of Land Rover's all-wheel drive technology?"

"That's right!"

"Acquire 4WD technology, are you sure?"

"Pretty sure!"

"Not to buy the entire Land Rover company?"

"It's not!"

Cao Ping shook his head, and then said helplessly: "In fact, Ford wants to package and sell Land Rover as a whole, but unfortunately the current Jaguar Land Rover Company is a bottomless pit that burns money, and no company in the world is willing to take over this company that has been losing money." Ford had no choice but to sell Land Rover's core four-wheel drive off-road technology, hoping to obtain some funds to make up for the company's losses. India's Tata is the only buyer interested in Land Rover's all-wheel drive technology. ”

Li Hao was even more surprised: "If the Indian Tata Company is the only interested buyer, why would you entrust your company to find other partners? ”

Cao Ping said: "You don't know about this. India is a ...... Weak countries, Ford in the United States does not want to sell advanced automobile technology to companies in these weak countries, lest they become strong in the future. So they put up some hurdles and asked for at least one more non-Indian partner. In this way, the same technology is sold to companies in two different countries, and there will be checks and balances between them. ”

"Is this similar to Europe's trade protection agreement?" Li Hao knows that Europeans and Americans always have a kind of arrogance in their hearts, looking down on developing countries, and refusing to sell technology to enterprises in developing countries. Not to mention India, Huaxia has also been blocked by their technology for many years.

"You even know about the Emt protocol?"

Cao Ping was amazed and admired by Li Hao's insight.

Li Hao finally clarified the whole thing from his mouth.

It turned out that Ford wanted to sell Land Rover, but American and European companies refused to take over such a money-losing product.

Only one small Indian company took a fancy to Land Rover's four-wheel drive technology and wanted to pay for it, not the entire Land Rover car company.

Ford thought about it, but the car company couldn't sell it, and it would be good to sell some technology for some money, so it agreed.

However, Ford put on a condescending posture, looked down on companies from developing countries, and refused to hand over the technology to Tata for exclusive use, so it asked Tata to find another partner. They must also be non-Indian.

Tata entrusted Cao Ping's Red Parrot Consulting Company to look for partners all over the world, and Europe and the United States must not be able to find it.

I don't know how, he met Zhou Junpeng through someone else's introduction, and Zhou Junpeng was obviously very interested in this cooperation. But he couldn't eat such a big piece of cake alone, so he deliberately ran to Xingsha City to find Chen Yifang.

Today, the three of them gathered in this restaurant at the entrance of Jiang University to discuss in detail some preliminary cooperation intentions.

However, Cao Ping regretfully said that the cooperation may be in vain.

Li Hao asked in surprise: "How can you soak in the soup?" Isn't Zhou Junpeng very interested?"

Cao Ping said helplessly: "Mr. Zhou is indeed very interested. But Principal Chen doesn't seem to be too interested. According to Mr. Zhou, 900 million of the 1 billion yuan needed to reach the cooperation needs to be spent by President Chen and the family behind him, so if he is not willing to participate, this cooperation agreement is likely to fall through. ”

Li Hao asked: "When you just left, Zhou Junpeng said that there is a proposal for you to take back to the Tata headquarters in India, what kind of proposal is it?"

Li Hao said in his heart: It turns out that Chen Yifang has an incomparably powerful family behind him! No wonder he is about to join the provincial party committee at such a young age.

Cao Ping said: "What Mr. Zhou means is that if President Chen didn't get involved in the end, he would still be willing to participate. If he could give him some time, he would go to other funders. In fact, the Indian Tata company must be very willing to give him some time, but the problem is that the Ford headquarters in the United States is not willing to give Indian Tata time!"

"If I ...... Is my father willing to buy Land Rover?"

"Student Li Hao, do you mean that Ling Zun will act as Mr. Zhou's new funder? If that's the case, then it would be great! In fact, the Indian Tata side is also very desperately in need of a collaborator, as long as the funds can be in place, the cooperation can be carried out immediately. ”

"No!"

Li Hao refuted his words very seriously, and then said seriously: "I don't mean to be a funder, but to directly acquire Land Rover!"

"Outright acquisition of Land Rover?"

Cao Ping was stunned for a moment.

Then he said, "Oh. Dear Li Hao, I really don't understand what you mean. Can you be a little clearer?"

"Yes. I mean, I'm going to bypass Tata and negotiate directly with Ford to buy Land Rover. Well, no, it's supposed to be called Jaguar Land Rover, right? I'm going to buy the whole company, 100 percent of the shares!"

"Oh, buy cakes, dear Howe, do you know what you're talking about? Did I mishear?"

When Cao Ping heard this, he almost fainted!

This world is too big for anyone to have.

Bragging is not illegal, and you dare to say anything with one mouth!

He was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and he began to despise this Li Hao a little.

Did he see the wrong person?

Isn't this a genuinely cute lad?

Is he just a young man who likes to lie and brag?

He began to think that Li Hao was a frivolous teenager with intense contempt.

Li Hao once again said loudly: "You heard me right! What I said is indeed to buy the entire Land Rover Company!"

Li Hao is not talking nonsense.

If you want to buy it, buy the whole Land Rover car company!

Do you just buy a four-wheel drive technology, and have an egg?

In the past, Tata finally bought the entire Land Rover company!

Lean meat should be chewed slowly.

The fat meat has to be swallowed in one bite!
