After passing over the Manhattan Suspension Bridge and entering the city, there are more cars on the road.

The girls on both sides of the road were dressed coolly, wearing sunglasses and laughing and talking, attracting the attention of many people.

Street stalls are also part of Manhattan's streetscape, where ice cream trucks are the most popular and crowds of tourists wearing red hats.

In the cabin of the Audi, the air vents were blowing cold, and Wright was wearing only a vest and rubbing his arms to turn down the air.

Then Gabriel asked softly, "Where are we going now, the house on the Upper West Side?"

"Yes. ”

Han Xuan was still talking to Anthony on the phone, and he hummed unconsciously, and Gabriel was just about to turn when he heard him say, "Let's go to 42nd Street first, where Times Square is." ”

"I've made a mistake, so let's make a U-turn around at the intersection ahead. Gabriel whispered them over the walkie-talkie and shut up and focused on driving.

"Aston Martin's technical reserves are relatively good, but the price is too high, at least $300 million to buy it wholly owned, and we don't have enough money on our books now, and we have to invest a few years after buying it to see a return. ”

Han Xuan frowned.

Unexpectedly heard from Anthony that Ford's Aston Martin brand has been having a hard time recently, and Ford is in contact with DaimlerChrysler, hoping to sell the Aston Martin brand, and he wants to buy it himself, but he has no money in his hand, which makes his greedy heart itch.

Supercar companies sound very famous, in fact, there are not many people who can afford supercars, limited by sales problems, there are very few supercar companies that can make money, not everyone can be like Ferrari, most supercars are the products of auto groups to lose money and make money, improve their technical reserves.

Just like the Bugatti-Veyron sold by the Volkswagen Group in the future. With an average loss of $4.61 million per vehicle, and a loss is 12 years, the Volkswagen Group is still happy to do it, and even uses technology that can only be used in the space industry for Bugatti-Veyron.

The sad supercar company has been changing hands repeatedly from car manufacturer to automaker, buying to supplement its own product line.

Han Xuan didn't fancy their technology, but hoped to get a resounding brand. It takes many years for a new car company to be recognized, plus the time to form a team and develop a new car, it is not cost-effective, and a new wave of buying cars is coming with the rise of China.

"You don't have a lot of luxury car brands that you want, and the big car groups are not short of money, and it's too hard to buy from them, maybe more expensive than the current Aston Martin company. ”

Anthony's voice came from the phone: "Jaguar was just acquired by Ford in '89. A new model is currently being developed, and I have not heard that they have any intention of selling it.

A few years ago, Maserati went bankrupt and was acquired by the Afete Group, and to put it bluntly, Afete and the Italian government provided it with free financial assistance and gave money to Maserati for free.

Sorry, I'm not an expert on this, that's all I can remember. If necessary, I'll have people gather information now. ”

"Okay. Mr. Anthony. There was a bit of traffic jam on the road, Han Xuan looked outside and said, "Maserati?

The most famous Italian car brand is "two kings and one queen", the two kings refer to Ferrari and Lamborghini, and the first refers to Maserati, this brand is very famous in European and American countries.

"You can send someone to contact their company. If you want to buy it wholly, you have a lot of hope, because Maserati seems to have been losing money in the past few years, and I believe that Yafete is very willing to get rid of this burden, but have you really thought about it?"

Far away in front of a restaurant in Los Angeles, California. A middle-aged white man in his forties said something like this.

Anthony Munger is thin and doesn't look like a man in his forties on the looks, having worked for Fidelity Funds and is now CEO of Snow Mountain Investments.

There was no understanding of the market in the early stage, there was no detailed investigation and planning, and as soon as he came, he asked if he could buy it, although Mr. Han had instructed him to listen to the boy's arrangement, but Anthony has been in this industry for nearly 20 years and has never seen such a casual investment.

You can come up with the reason for entering the game, kid, it's normal to be curious about the game, but cars? making cars is not making bicycles, and the investment is calculated in "how many dollars", no matter how rich you are, you can't mess around like this.

Anthony now regrets abandoning the position of deputy manager of Fidelity Fund and choosing to enter this new company, originally thought that he would hug the thigh of SOS Group, and he didn't want to meet a Chinese child as the boss.

I made up my mind to go back and look through the contract signed with the chairman of SOS Group to see if there were any loopholes that could break the contract, thinking that Mr. Han could let his grandson mess around, and it was estimated that he was not as shrewd as rumored, so he couldn't help but feel a little emotional

Han Xuan heard the sigh on the phone, a little confused, and paused: "I think about it, Mr. Anthony, the details will be discussed when you come to New York, and first help me ask Maserati about the intentions of the company." ”

"The Maserati brand is in the hands of the Yafit Group, and Yafit already has Ferrari, and I think they will be willing to sell a company that is about to go bankrupt, and the key is the attitude of the Italian government. ”

Anthony said responsibly, wanting Han Xuan to give up this ridiculous idea, and then spoke: "The Maserati brand is one of the pride of Italians, and it may run into trouble. ”

"Isn't the Italian government in financial difficulty?"

"How can those officials be so noble, and they will not be happy to be able to make a loss?"

Han Xuan said in surprise, thinking that the chief operating officer that his grandfather found for himself was not very good, and he was not shy at all.

But Anthony on the other side of the mainland has a new understanding of Han Xuan: not only a loser, but also stubborn

The two people on the east and west coasts ended the call in an unpleasant atmosphere when they looked at each other.

Han Xuan exhaled, no matter what, the other party promised to help contact Maserati Motor Company, as for the Italian government, it will always think of a way, if not, they can contact Ford to buy Aston Martin, they will definitely not have the "feelings" of Italians, as long as the money is in place, they can even sell themselves.

"Money, money......"

"What's the matter? I want to eat, I've got money. Gabriel asked, hearing the boy in the back row talking to himself.

"I want to buy a company, and I'm about $300 million short. Han Xuan mentally calculated the funds needed in the early stage, leaned his head on the car window, and said helplessly.

Gabriel almost choked to death without taking a bite, and looked up at the rearview mirror: "I still have two hundred and thirty dollars in cash on me, lend it to you?"

“…… Then it's only more than 290 million, so take it. (To be continued.) )
