(The following is true, except that Jia Lei advanced the march by a few years.) In addition, because there is a lot of content from Baidu Encyclopedia, I will directly put the next chapter in the author's testimonials for everyone to read for free. Be sure to read the author's testimonial in the next chapter!)

"Jia Lei, I heard that the BMW Group has sent someone to the UK to investigate the actual situation of Rover Automobile Company, do you think they can find out the problem?" asked the little Jew.

"The financial side can be a bit of a problem, because the British don't honestly hand over the financial statements to them. But the production problems of the Rover automobile factory, the BMW Group only needs to send an insider to see the problem at a glance!" Jia Lei said.

"Oh, then I'm relieved, if the BMW Group finds out the problem and gives up on buying Rover Motors, then we can buy Rover Motors in two days." Little Jew said.

"It's too early for you to rest assured, I always think that the BMW Group will not let go so easily!

Although it is normal for such a large-scale cross-border merger and acquisition case to drag on for a year or two in the world, Rover Motors cannot afford to wait for such a long time, and the British government cannot afford to wait for .......

I guess there will be an answer to this matter within three months!" Jia Lei thought about it and said.

Jia Lei guessed very accurately, and the BMW Group did not immediately give up the idea of acquiring Rover Automobile Company after getting the latest investigation report.

"Mr. Quandt, this is my report on the Rover Motors production site, and it seems to me that the Rover Motors production site in Longbridge is completely worthless. It's definitely a loss-making business for us to buy it!" Reitzler reported to Stephen Quandt.

"Well, I see! Reitzler, your report is very detailed, but I have other things to do now, and I'll look at it more closely. Stephen Quandt flipped through the two-centimeter-thick report that Retzler had handed in, and then he turned his gaze to Breed.

"Tell me about what you've learned in London first?" asked Stephen Quandt.

"I've learned a lot in London this time, and the investigators I brought with me from the company have verified the information you gave me, and although most of the things on it are true, the situation at Rover Motor Company doesn't seem to be as serious as the report says. Breed replied.

After all, he planned the acquisition of Rover Motors, and he would be to blame if Rover Motors really had such a big problem, so he blurred the seriousness of the report.

"We've signed a letter of intent with British Airways to buy Rover Motors, so we can't break the contract all of a sudden, right?" said Stephen Quandt, frowning.

"Actually, I think it's best not to break the contract unless it is absolutely necessary, because then we will definitely offend the British government.

And I think Mr. Quandt should take a look at this now and then consider whether or not to stop this acquisition of Rover Motors. Bitter took out a document and handed it to him, and Stephen Quandt looked through it.

In fact, he is so interested in the acquisition of Rover Motors, on the one hand, because it is his first big move after becoming the president of the BMW Group.

On the other hand, the market research company reported to him that according to the results of multi-faceted surveys, the recession of the global automobile industry will come in the next 10 to 20 years.

Once the automotive industry enters a recession, it will be difficult for car companies with annual sales of less than 1.8 million to 2 million units in the international market to survive.

The BMW Group's global sales this year are expected to be about 574,000 units, but in fact, the BMW Group's small sales volume is only equivalent to the annual sales of a certain brand under a large automobile company such as GM and Ford.

If the BMW Group does not strengthen itself before the recession hits, then the BMW Group is likely to be suppressed by GM or Ford as a subordinate company.

But this is not the worst-case scenario, according to the data, the worst-case scenario is that the BMW Group will be eaten by Volkswagen and other companies that cross the company.

In other words, BMW's most important thing at present is to expand its own strength and sales volume, quickly expand its popularity around the world and occupy more market share, so as to survive the upcoming recession in the automotive industry.

"How credible is this information?" asked Stephen Quandt, nervously holding the report.

"With an accuracy rate of more than 50 percent for this kind of reporting on industry megatrends, we at the BMW Group really can't afford to wait for it now, and if we don't expand, it's too late. Bi Ruide said.

"In that case, I'm afraid we're going to have to go ahead with the British government to buy Rover Motors!" said Stephen Quandt.

"Mr. Quandt, I think you should be cautious, and since the automotive industry is about to enter a depression, we should be more cautious in what we say and do.

Rover Motors' production base is hopelessly rotten, and if we take over it, they will most likely drag down the BMW Group, and we will not only lose money, but also lose money. Reitzler immediately objected.

"We will lose money when we buy Rover Automotive, but the Rover Automotive's brand and production line are important to us at the BMW Group.

As long as we at the BMW Group provide the new technology and new design solutions of BMW cars to the Rover production base, and then help Rover Motors produce new models, then Rover cars will definitely sell well in the UK and even all of Europe.

I estimate that after we buy Rover Motors, it will continue to lose money for another five or six years at most, and that is when our BMW Group is at its strongest.

In the meantime, we can make a name for ourselves in the BMW Group all over the world with the ready-made brand of Rover Motors!

In this way, we at the BMW Group will be able to become a giant car company like General Motors Volkswagen, and then we will be able to meet the recession of the automotive industry in 10 years!" explains Brude.

"How much money and time do you think we have to invest in Rover Motors to make it profitable?" asked Stephen Quandt.

"My plan is for 6 years and $5 billion!

In 6 years' time, I promise to triple Rover Motors' sales and make more money for our BMW Group. Breed replied.

"Six years and $5 billion? That's okay!" said Stephen Quang, nodding his head, as he chose between loss and bankruptcy.

After all, what the BMW Group needs most now is rapid expansion, and the $5 billion should be regarded as an upfront investment.

"Mr. Quandt, I am opposed to your plan to continue to buy the Rover Motor Company, and I think it is better to buy the cheaper Rolls-Royce brand than to invest a huge amount of money in the Rover Motor Company. Reitzler hastened.

"I don't think so, there aren't many people in the UK who like the old Rolls-Royce these days, and we now have better conditions for us to buy Rover Cars!

This opportunity came after many negotiations with the British Government with the information given to me by Mr. Quandt.

Because we were caught by British Airways in providing an asset appraisal report that was not in line with the facts, the British government agreed that we could buy Rover Motors in instalments.

So now we only need to pay 800 million pounds and the purchase of shares for Honda Group, and we can take Rover Motors. Bi Ruide said.

"But I still think it's better to buy Rolls-Royce than to buy Rover Cars! Sometimes things are not expensive, Rover is a rotten watermelon and Rolls-Royce is a sweet apple. Reitzler said.

"Reitzler, in fact, I still prefer Land Rover and Mini to Rolls-Royce, an outdated brand!

But I respect the decision of both of you, so I'm going to take it to the board of directors and decide which company to buy," said Stephen Quandt.

In fact, once this matter rises to the board of directors of the BMW Group, the result is self-evident.

It was this group of directors who chose Bad as president of the BMW Group between Bad and Reitzler, and they still supported Bad Read's plan this time.

Because Breed has made countless promises to the British government, if BMW takes the initiative to break the contract now, it will offend the British government, then the BMW Group's products will never want to enter the British market for the rest of their lives.

"I hope that everyone will discuss this on a case-by-case basis, rather than supporting whoever they prefer! The acquisition of Rover Motors will definitely be the worst decision since the establishment of the BMW Group, and it will make it impossible for us to recover from the BMW Group. Reitzler eagerly argued at the boardroom.

"Reitzler, I've always wondered why you're so opposed to our takeover of Rover Motors?" asked one of the directors.

"I've already provided information to the chairman and the directors, but that doesn't prove why I don't want you to buy Rover Motors?" Reitzler asked, puzzled.

"We've also read what is written on this document, but what puzzles me is the source of your information.

I've heard from people in the company that this information was personally delivered to your office by our competitor who bought Rover Motors.

I'm skeptical of the findings, how can the mini brand have such a good reputation as it does as it says it is?" said the director dismissively.

"What do you mean by that?" Reitzler asked, frowning.

"I suspect that you said bad things about the mini in the report because the mini was invented by Big's grandfather, and you want to use it to discredit Big," one of the directors said suddenly.

"Alright, Reitzler, don't pretend!

That day, your conversation with Jia Lei at the door of the company was overheard by the people in the company, didn't Jia Lei invite you to their company to be the chairman and give you the company's shares!

Are you blocking our acquisition of Rover Motors now, do you want Victor Blackstone to buy Rover Motors past us?

"No! I really never thought about moving to Victor Blackstone! The BMW 3 Series I worked on is now ready for mass production, so how could I change jobs at this time?" Reitzler quickly explained.

It's a pity that Reitzler's popularity on the board of directors as an engineering man is not very good, and many people don't believe his explanation.

As a result, the board of directors of the BMW Group voted to continue the acquisition of Rover Motors, and Brilliant flew to London again to prepare the final acquisition agreement.

"Jia Lei, what should we do now?" asked the little Jew anxiously after hearing the news.

"Hey......! It seems that I can't do it without a killer feature!" Jia Lei sighed and said.

Emotionally speaking, if it weren't for the point of being forced to do so, Jia Lei really didn't want to use such indiscriminate means to win this acquisition.

Although Jia Lei will undoubtedly win as soon as this killer feature comes out, this method is really not very above board.

Even if Jia Lei knew that this incident was destined to happen in a few years, Jia Lei still felt that he was a little sorry for the dead soul in doing this.

*****

So what is Jia Lei's killer feature?

It was to encourage workers to take to the streets to march against the BMW Group and the Quandt family behind it to buy Rover Motors.

Why did Jia Lei come up with such an idea?

This is going to start with the black history of the Quandt family!

The Quandt family rose to prominence in World War I, and Günther Quandt seized the opportunity of the war to become an ordinary merchant and an arms dealer in Germany, when Günther Quandt controlled many large German companies and even two military enterprises, and the most famous product in his factory was the Mauser gun.

The guns and ammunition produced by the Quandt family killed many British people on the battlefield, and the British had a deep blood feud against the Quandt family.

Of course, the First World War was too long, and the British would not have hated them for too long if it were only because of the First World War, but by the time of World War II, the Quundt family had intensified their aiding and abusiveness.

After Günther Quandt tasted the sweetness of the First World War, he became more interested in obtaining economic benefits from a political point of view, and he began to participate in the political world frequently, meeting various political figures.

In 1931, a year and a half before Hitler came to power, Günther Quandt paid an official visit to Hitler, who then asked him what could be done to solve Germany's economic crisis.

Gunter Quandt attributed the disaster to a surplus of domestic products and a lack of a clear industrial plan.

As a result, Günther Quandt proposed to Hitler the economic reform strategy of "increasing public investment and strengthening infrastructure to increase jobs and stimulate domestic demand".

Hitler's economic reform strategy was well received by Hitler, who implemented his economic plan in 1933 when Hitler became the head of Germany, and then in just three years, Germany went from having the highest deficit and unemployment in the world to becoming one of the world's leading economic powers.

In 1933, Günther Quandt joined the ** party and restarted the military industrial complex under his name, and after the start of World War II, Günther Quandt was appointed head of the national economy in Germany.

What was the most famous war between Britain and Germany in World War II?

That unlimited submarine war, of course!

At that time, German submarines were able to dominate the sea because the A FA company under the control of Günter Quandt provided new batteries for German naval submarines, which played an important role in the absolute control of the German army in the Atlantic naval war.

If you want to say that these things on the battlefield may not be felt by the ordinary British people, but the British people feel the bombing of London by the German army.

Coincidentally, Günter Quandt's A FA company was also involved in the development and production of missiles for the bombing of London.

After World War II, the British and the Quandt family immediately escalated from a deep feud to a feud!

It is said that many people don't know anything about the richest man in Germany, the Beijing Quandt family, and everyone uses the BMW family to replace them when they talk about them, and the reason why this family is so mysterious is because the Quandt family is very low-key.

As one of the greatest accomplices of World War II, the Quandt family wanted to live incognito for hundreds of years, so that everyone in Europe would forget about them.
