After Jia Lei sent black materials to the BMW Group twice in a row, the BMW Group finally decided to send someone to the UK to investigate the actual situation of Rover Automobile Company.

"What? Would you like to visit the car production line at our Longbridge plant?" said the president of Rover Motors in surprise.

"Yes, we're going to visit the factory under Luohu Automobile Company and do a full asset appraisal of Rover Automobile Company again!" Reitzler nodded.

"But haven't we already provided you with an asset appraisal report for the BMW Group?

Mr. Bill, we have signed the letter of intent to acquire both companies, didn't you already approve the evaluation report we submitted at that time, why does the BMW Group suddenly come to investigate us?" asked the president of Rover Motors.

"This ...... ...... this," he asked, he had not even read the report carefully because he was only interested in enjoying the flattery of people from all walks of life in England.

During the negotiation of the acquisition with the British government, Butred did not personally investigate Rover Motors or send his subordinates to investigate, but directly used the asset appraisal report provided by Rover Motors, otherwise he would not have missed so much important information.

"You know that we Germans are very serious, so the board of directors intends to conduct a full investigation of your company before the acquisition agreement is formally signed!" explains Breed.

"Oh, so that's the case, then you can come with me, our report is already ready, and I'll have you take it again." The president of Rover Motors nodded, and then he called the manager in.

"Most of the asset appraisal reports you want are in the archives, so are you going to go to the archives or the factory first?" asked the manager of Rover Motors.

"Time is urgent! With less than a week left before we sign the deal, why don't we split up?" Reitzler said.

"Good!" said Breed, nodding.

"In that case, why don't you choose one of the headquarters of the Louvre Motor Company and the production base of Longbridge? Reitzler said that he still had to let it go anyway because he was the new president.

"Then I'll choose the headquarters of Rover Motors in London, after all, I have to deal with the British government here. And you're an automotive engineer by profession, so it's easier for you to find problems than I can when you go to the factory below. Bi Ruide thought for a moment and said.

In fact, the eldest young master just hates the dirty and noisy environment in the factory, and he wants to stay in London to live comfortably.

"Okay, so be it. Reitzler nodded, and then he took someone to the Rover Motors production site in Long Bridge.

Before coming to the Longbridge plant, Reitzler had only a vague impression of the cars produced by Rover, and in his eyes, the ugly shapes, too small size, and too high prices of the cars produced by Rover Automobile Company were the reasons for the slow sale of Rover cars.

So over the years, the sales of Rover cars in the UK and the whole of Europe have been extremely poor, and most of the people who buy Rover cars in the UK are extreme patriotic supporters, or loyal customers of Rover cars, and the best models they sell are imitations of Honda's Rover cars.

"Your production line and the building are too old, right? I doubt it's going to collapse?" Reitzler said with a twitch of disbelief as he saw the factory building from afar, and he even saw moss on the roof of the plant.

"Our factory is indeed too old! But fortunately, President Breed promised the government that after your BMW Group acquired our Rover Automobile Company, we would rebuild two new factories for our factory. The director of the Long Bridge production base said happily.

Now Reitzler is only an engineer and R&D supervisor of the BMW Group, so the director of the Longbridge production base regards him as a future colleague with a similar status, and the atmosphere after the two people meet is still very harmonious, and there is no serious atmosphere when the superiors and subordinates meet.

"It's not easy to build two new factories, and we won't be able to build any house in a year or two, so let's talk about it later. Reitzler frowned, and then he walked impatiently into the factory.

"Your production line is too old, I think most of them are more than ten years old, right?" Reitzler asked as he looked at the production line and frowned.

"Yes, the British economy has been in recession recently, and except for a few new production lines developed in cooperation with Honda Motor Company, the other production lines have been around for more than ten years. The director of the Long Bridge plant replied, and Reitzler walked to the side of the production line with an ugly face when he heard this.

"Hey, I'm going back to my place. One of the workers pushed Reitzler and said that he would return to his post after Reitzler got out of the way.

"You don't stay at your post during working hours, where did you go?" Reitzler asked with a frown, he just thought there was a shortage of workers here before he stopped to take a closer look.

"Who is the factory director? How can you care so much?" the worker asked unceremoniously as he looked at Reitzler dissatisfied, and the director of the Long Bridge factory was about to cry at the moment.

"This is a representative sent by the BMW Group to inspect the work, and you must not be rude. The director of the Long Bridge plant warned him.

"Oh...... It's from the BMW Group! I've heard about it on the news, and it's like they're going to buy our Rover Motors. The worker recalled.

Since this person was the person of the future new boss, the workers naturally did not dare to continue the trouble, so the workers had to light a cigarette to relieve themselves of the depression of being reprimanded by Retzler.

"Ridiculous! How can you smoke on the assembly line, you will not only delay your work, but also easily hurt the production line and products!" Reitzler said angrily when he saw this scene.

"You German don't even care about me smoking, do you? Aren't you sick? Isn't it normal to smoke at work?" the worker asked incredulously, saying that smoking at work was a common occurrence in British companies at the time.

"It's normal to smoke on the assembly line, is it possible that this kind of unprofessional work attitude is normal here for you?" Reitzler asked angrily.

"I don't know what kind of work attitude is not attitude, but smoking at work is a very normal thing in our factory! Lao Tzu has been working in the factory like this for 10 years, and you foreigner is too lenient. Said the worker.

Then he pretended to be busy with his work and avoided Reitzler, who was so angry with the arrogance of the worker!

Because in recent years, British workers have taken to the streets to march whenever things don't go their way, so the status of workers in the factories is higher than that of the factory directors, and all kinds of welfare and human rights treatment have been raised to the highest level in history.

It was under this circumstance that the Iron Lady Thatcher ascended to the position of British Prime Minister, and she later suppressed this evil spirit through a series of tough measures, which is also the origin of her title of Iron Lady.

"Although I knew before I came that the British workers were inefficient, I did not expect that your work efficiency was not only low, but also that your work attitude was too lax......" Reitzler said angrily, and then he left the place in a rage to continue inspecting the other workshops.

In fact, Rover Automobile Company has been in the nature of a British state-owned enterprise for more than ten years, you don't look at them as foreigners, but the behavior of eating a big pot of rice in a state-owned enterprise is similar to that of workers in Chinese state-owned enterprises.

Even more than that......

“Hey Jude， don't make it bad.

Take a sad song and make it better.

Remember to let her into your heart，

Then you can start to make it better……”

As soon as Reitzler walked into the assembly room, he heard the familiar sound of Hey Jude, the Beatles' famous track.

"How can there be music in the assembly shop?" Reitzler asked, frowning.

"This ...... This ...... "The director of the Longbridge plant didn't know how to explain it, and of course Reitzler didn't need him to explain it at this point.

Because Retzler knew where the music was coming from as soon as he walked into the workshop, he saw a radio sitting near the nearest production line, and it was from there that the singing came from.

As Reitzler fully walked into the production floor, the music in his ears became more and more noisy, and the whole workshop was filled with radios playing music or news......

"Oh my God...... No wonder the productivity of your factories is so poor, are your workers just lazy listening to music and not going to work?" Reitzler asked the director of the Longbridge plant.

"Of course not! Our workers have been working hard, but our British workers work at a different pace than your German workers.

In the UK, most factory workers work at this slow pace, and not everyone is as productive as Honda's island workers. The director of the Long Bridge plant explained.

Because we have been working together for ten years, the British also know the efficiency of the islanders and workers from other countries.

"Huh...... If you continue like this, I'm afraid Rover will never want to turn a profit......," Reitzler said with a headache.

"The factory lost money because of the product, not because our workers work...... " The director of the Long Bridge factory explained unhappily when he heard this, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a crisp "ding" sound.

"What is that sound?" Reitzler subconsciously followed the voice, and then he saw a scene that made him vomit blood.

"Oh, no! my pen, I bought it for £20. A worker who had just straightened up shouted in a panic as he clutched his jacket pocket and stared at the assembly line, the sound just now was made when the pen in his pocket fell on the assembly line.

It's a pity that it's too late for him to say anything now......

With the roar of the machine, the frame of the car was quickly assembled, and Reitzler and the worker watched as the blue pen that had fallen into the crack of the car was sealed inside.

"Oh!NO!How can you do that, this pen is likely to cause an accident or affect the aesthetics of the car, and the car will be scrapped......" Retzler said when he saw this scene, and what made him even more devastated was that he found that many workers in this workshop had the habit of putting pens in their pockets.

"Don't worry, Mr. Reitzler, this pen is sealed under the seat and the customer won't see it! it won't affect the ...... of the car's sales," explained the director of the Longbridge plant.

"Just because the customer can't see it doesn't mean that the quality of the car is fine, no wonder there are so few repeat customers of your Rover car brand...... With the quality and flaws of your British car, who will use it once and buy it again!" Reitzler said speechlessly, at this moment he completely gave up his interest in Rover Auto Company.

Disheartened, Reitzler barely completed the rest of the tour, and even when he saw the British worker's metal belt buckle scratching the freshly painted car paint, Reitzler did not say anything about it.

Mourning is greater than heart death!

In Reitzler's mind, Rover Motors' car factory in Longbridge was dead, a worthless factory that was doomed to perish sooner or later.
