(The third update is finally out!) The debts owed always have to be repaid, brothers, Xiaobai is cheeky and asks for forgiveness! Ask for a monthly pass and support! ）

"Mr. Krauss, this is Mr. Zhang Chen, the President of MSI Technology Group. ∑，”

Tian Shuilan is dressed up very sassy today.

This was the first thing Zhang Chen said when he came down.

Although it is a little ridiculous to him, it is indeed very burning.

On a hot day, the suit, tie and leather shoes are very complete, which is like him, even when he meets the vice president of the Ford Group, he is still a white shirt, a casual denim, and even a casual one on his feet!

Slippers!

You read that right, slippers indeed!

He had just finished his late breakfast in the hotel's restaurant, and before he could go back to change his clothes, the people had already arrived.

The Ford executive named Klaus didn't even frown, as if he hadn't seen Zhang Chen's outfit at all.

In fact, Klaus does not know much about this Chinese named Zhang Chen, or his understanding is very limited.

But this did not prevent him from being jealous of Zhang Chen.

One comes from the inherent thinking of the corporate world, a teenager can start a business in less than ten years to create a company with potential no less than Microsoft, if this person is not a genius, then he is a madman.

It's just these two kinds of people, no matter which one he doesn't want to mess with.

"Hello, Mr. Klaus!"

"Hello, Mr. Zhang!"

Compared with Zhang Chen's casualness, Klaus seemed very polite and polite. Of course, Tian Shuilan still plays his role.

This time, he was solely responsible for negotiating with the Americans to buy Aston Martin. As for what to do after buying it, he didn't know.

Does Zhang Chen have a full consideration? He didn't even know it at all.

asked a vice president in charge of producing mobile phones to buy a car, if it weren't for Zhang Chen telling him about it personally, Tian Shuilan would even wonder if Zhang Chen made this decision himself.

"Mr. Krauss, why would Ford want to talk to me about this, I think your company's Mr. Ford should be clear that MSI is not an automaker."

Zhang Chen has always been a little puzzled about why Ford found him, if it is because of his fame, it must be nonsense.

In the United States, MSI Technology is in the limelight. But it's still far from moving even a giant in the automotive industry like Ford.

Klaus had obviously expected Zhang Chen to ask such a question.

So he answered Zhang Chen's question directly without thinking about it.

"Mr. Zhang, it's very simple, because we are optimistic about the Chinese market!"

It's really simple.

Zhang Chen didn't even have any doubts before nodding in agreement.

"Mr. Zhang, China has a population of 1.2 billion, the fastest economic growth rate in the world and an urban population, and this is a supermarket that can compete with the whole of Europe.

The reason why choosing Mr. Chang is that in addition to this factor, of course, there are personal factors, and Mr. Ford believes that you have what it takes to bring Aston Martin to life. ”

Klaus's last sentence, Zhang Chen directly chose to ignore it.

I'm afraid that the previous reason is what Ford is considering.

In 2001, the Ford Group signed a cooperation agreement with the Chinese side. Changan Ford Automobile Co., Ltd. was established with joint investment and technology from both parties, and each party holds 50% of the shares.

But it wasn't until the beginning of this year that Changan Ford's first car product, the Ford Fiesta, officially rolled off the assembly line.

As a small car, the Fiesta has achieved extremely impressive sales results in the European market. After cooperating with Changan Automobile, the new Changan Carnival integrates the style of European models in combination with the characteristics of the Chinese market. Solemn and unassuming, the shape design is very dynamic.

But. As it stands, the car is clearly a product in the lower end of the market. And most importantly, in the Chinese market, it is also difficult for Ford to compete with Volkswagen, General Motors and other car brands.

At present, there are no luxury sports car manufacturers in the Chinese market, and their purpose is to introduce their Aston Martin to the Chinese market.

The ultimate goal is to open up Ford's sales in the Chinese market through this partnership.

The reason why I chose Zhang Chen.

Because Ford saw Zhang Chen's unique position and influence in China, MSI Technology and other companies under Zhang Chen's name brought a lot of wealth to this Chinese, but also brought him an incomparable social status.

Unlike the free market and capitalism of Western countries, in China this is very important.

In the past, when other car brands entered the Chinese market, most of them chose to cooperate with state-owned enterprises, and few private entrepreneurs had such strength.

But as a luxury sports car of a high-end brand, it would be almost impossible to sell part of Aston Martin's stake to a Chinese state-owned enterprise, and the British government will categorically not agree to the deal.

But if it's private, it's different, and even if the British government doesn't agree, Ford won't be restricted.

Arguably.

All things considered, Zhang Chen is the only suitable candidate.

Now Aston Martin is no longer able to bring greater benefits to Ford, on the contrary, if it sells part of its shares to the Chinese, through cooperation with Ford, the Ford brand can be recognized in the Chinese market, and the benefits can be maximized.

It's just, will Zhang Chen accept it?

Before that, Ford's top management was really not sure.

But not necessarily now.

The Chinese have already been released by Europe, and I am afraid this is a golden opportunity.

"I like your straightforwardness, Mr. Krauss, but I don't like cars, I prefer cell phones and computers to that big guy, and if you sell me a Dell computer instead of talking to me about cars, I'm afraid I'll be willing to pay twice as much."

Damn the Chinese!

When I heard Zhang Chen's words.

Klaus's first reaction was nausea!

Then I want to blurt out scolding!

Sell Dell to you? Even the president of the United States probably does not have this ability!

"Mr. Zhang, I'm sorry, Dale isn't ours."

"Hahaha! Mr. Klaus, if Dale were yours, would you sell it to me? ”

Klaus's voice had just fallen.

Zhang Chen's face suddenly became extremely serious.

The gaze in his eyes fell on Klaus's face, as Ford's senior vice president, there was an extremely embarrassed look on his face at this moment.

This Chinese is too serious!

But my mouth is too cheap! Don't say anything, just say this! Even if Dell is theirs, does he dare to say that he sold it to Zhang Chen!!

Tian Shuilan, who was sitting next to Zhang Chen, had a heart in his throat, and when Zhang Chen said this, he didn't realize that it was a trap, and it wasn't until Klaus's face became completely bloodless that he understood Zhang Chen's power.

Play this trick again!

But I have to say that the Americans are estimated to be pitted by him again!

"Hahaha! Well, Mr. Krauss, I'm not interested in cars, and if Mr. Ford really wants me to buy a stake in Aston Martin and work with Ford, I think you should be more sincere. ”

Klaus isn't stupid either.

When Zhang Chen said this, he understood that he was caught in the other party's circle, this Chinese's scheming is too terrible, compared with his young appearance, his scheming may be more cunning than those old foxes in Congress.

But when he came to Europe, he had already boasted to the board of directors of the group that Haikou would facilitate the deal, and now this Chinese is obviously not easy to fool, I am afraid that he will really pay some price.

"Mr. Zhang, I don't know what you want?"

Although he knows that as long as he asks this sentence, he will fall into the inferior, in such a negotiation, as long as he falls into the inferior, basically the initiative will be controlled by the other party.

But Klaus didn't have a choice.

It was supposed to be a dispensable deal, but now that Aston Martin is in the hands of Ford, it would have been a pity to abandon it, and if the deal had been made, they would have made a profit.

This Chinese did not give them much leeway.

At the same time, what is surprising in Krauss's mind is not whether the deal will be completed, but how the British will look if they learn that their proud car brand will be taken into the arms of the Chinese.

He wasn't British.

When Ford bought the British car brand, it did not say that it would not sell it to the Chinese in the future. (To be continued.) )
