Chapter 971: Pressure

Hearing Yin Tongyue's words, Bai Ningyuan almost felt relieved at that moment, and the big stone that was originally pressed on his heart seemed to disappear without a trace in an instant. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

It's done!

That was the only thought in his heart at this time.

After a long time, Bai Ningyuan took a deep breath, looked at Yin Tongyue on the other side of the phone, and said calmly: "Then let's start!"

And the excitement of Detroit is still playing out.

After Chase Morgan entered this game, the EMP/Qirui joint negotiation team also subconsciously accelerated the pace of negotiations with Volt, but it is clear that at this point, Volt is not in a hurry to achieve a result quickly, even if it is the first to propose the acquisition of EMP/Qirui.

As for Volt's attitude, everyone in the joint negotiation team actually had expected it, but they still insisted on it, hoping that a miracle could happen.

But obviously, nine times out of ten, things are unsatisfactory in the world.

It is not only EMP and Qirui who are anxious, but also Dynaudio * Stampede, JPMorgan Chase gave him pressure, so he simply felt restless, so after a short contact, the negotiation team of Stomp Company took the lead in providing an offer to Volt.

$2.05 billion, which is the price offered by the company for Jaguar Land Rover.

I have to say that this price is enough to make Volt feel a little excited.

Although Volt acquired Jaguar and Land Rover as British luxury brands in 1989 and 2000 respectively, it spent a total of $2.5 billion and $2.7 billion respectively, and now $2.05 billion, which can be regarded as a big loss, but you must know that in recent years, Jaguar and Land Rover have combined annual losses of about one billion US dollars, and now Volt itself is difficult to protect, let alone use huge amounts of money to fill these two bottomless pits, so it can be sold at this price, although it seems to be a loss, but as long as it can revitalize Volt and let Volt get out of the predicament, in the eyes of Volt people, it's the best deal.

And when I heard the news, EMP/Qirui couldn't help but feel a sinking in my heart, because before, they had just completed the draft of the offer internally, and for this acquisition, their ideal price was $1.7 billion, but the offer on this side was 20.59% higher than theirs, which is definitely a considerable gap.

Seriously, the offer of this stampede completely disrupted the deployment of Bai Ningyuan and Yin Tongyue.

Originally, according to Bai Ningyuan's arrangement, they wanted to force Tadao to retreat from the difficulties and automatically give up this game through a series of actions, but no one expected that after getting the news of JPMorgan Chase's involvement, Tadao couldn't hold his breath, and recklessly quoted the purchase price without much formal contact and negotiation, and even without a detailed exchange with Volt about Jaguar Land Rover's related industries.

In this way, for Bai Ningyuan, they suddenly fell into a dilemma.

Or, as previously deployed, they continue to wait, but at the cost of all the advantages established through previous negotiations, all of which may come to naught, and the company may largely rely on the advantage of this offer to overtake the EMP team and establish its own lead, or even more likely to use this short-term lead to quickly facilitate cooperation with Volt.

Or, they can only passively increase the purchase price, but this is equivalent to asking them to pay a huge amount of money of billions more, how can Bai Ningyuan be willing!

For a while, even the entire team was caught in a fierce debate.

Zhang Yan insisted on proceeding according to the original plan, and in terms of price, he tried to find a way to drag down Volt's side, at least to ensure that they were still within the scope of Volt's consideration.

On the other hand, the cross-border acquisition consulting company suggested that Bai Ningyuan should appropriately raise the offer, and then move the Volt side with affection and courtesy, impress Volt through other aspects, defeat the trampling and other competitors, and win the acquisition.

As for Qirui's side, most of the people remained silent, but there were still a small number of voices, advocating the suspension of the acquisition, after all, it was time-consuming and laborious, not to mention, they felt that it was already very difficult to succeed in the situation surrounded by heroes.

Everyone expressed their opinions, but the discussion within the entire negotiation team became arguing, and there was even a strong smell of gunpowder in the air.

In the end, when no one could convince anyone, everyone focused on Bai Ningyuan's body, and after Yin Tongyue left, among the entire team, Bai Ningyuan became the one with the final word.

More importantly, because of his widely circulated legendary history, as well as his legendary investment ability and vision, everyone present bet on him.

At this time, only his opinion is probably the most convincing.

At this time, Bai Ningyuan suddenly became the focus of attention of the entire team.

Bai Ningyuan crossed his hands, rested on his chin and lowered his chin, sitting there thinking, his eyes flashing with a deep look, as if the whole person had been immersed in his own world.

I don't know when it started, the noisy quarrels in the room have all disappeared, replaced by a silent look, and everyone subconsciously held their breath, lest they disturb Bai Ningyuan's thoughts.

After a long time, under their gaze, Bai Ningyuan slowly raised his head, and then said calmly: "According to the original plan!"

Although Bai Ningyuan's words were very light, they seemed to carry a thousand weights, setting a tone for this controversy.

Facing the doubts in everyone's eyes, Bai Ningyuan didn't explain too much, but simply said: "Stampede is our main enemy, as long as we can defeat trampling, the rest, don't be afraid!"

Hearing the undoubted firmness in Bai Ningyuan's words, everyone suddenly fell silent, and some people in the cross-border acquisition consulting company seemed to want to say something, but looking at the thoughtful looks of the people around them, they opened their mouths, and finally swallowed all the words that came to their mouths.

In the silence that followed, the whole team continued to remain unified.

On August 15, when the whole of China was celebrating the anniversary of the surrender of the Japanese state, Mahendra also submitted an offer to Volt, 1.62 billion US dollars, slightly less than EMP/Qirui, which also made some people in the team quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

After Mahendra submitted the offer, the eyes of the industry were all focused on OneEquity, as if their price would dominate the final outcome of the acquisition......
