Meng Qian and Wang Manwen. After a few days of free time to entertain them, it should also be a vacation for yourself to adjust your mood. Meng Qian fulfilled Wang Taotao's wish and drove a yacht to take their family out to sea. But when everyone was shivering by the winter sea breeze, they realized that it was a bad idea.

"I didn't expect it to be so cold at sea!" Wang Taotao wrapped himself in a blanket and snorted.

"Abolish your democratic voting rights this time." Wang Manwen made a decision with one hand, and then said to everyone: "Summer is the time to play yachting, and we should choose to drive now." ”

"It's good to drive!" Wang Taotao became interested, but when he saw his sister's eyes, he was deflated: "Twenty-four hours to abolish the right to vote, I know." ”

Meng Qian happily: "It's up to you to decide." ”

Everyone agrees with Wang Manwen's idea that self-driving can be used for sightseeing and staying as much as you want, and there are two long-term residents in the United States as guides, which is an ideal travel model.

After deciding on the plan, they set off early the next morning.

Although one car could be loaded, it was a bit crowded and not happy enough, so he added an extra sports car - Meng Qian drove out his collection of Porsche 918s.

"Wow!" Wang Taotao circled around the car, "Brother-in-law, I want to be the co-pilot!" ”

"I thought you were going to drive." Meng Qian threw the key to him, "Try?" ”

"Really?" Wang Taotao couldn't believe it, his family situation was good, he was almost twenty years old, and he had a driver's license, but he never thought he could drive such a top-level sports car.

"Then I'll take you for a while." Meng Qian got into the car and started it, Wang Taotao, who is also a fan of the car, sat on the chair and was excited: "This is rare in China!" ”

Meng Qian likes to talk about cars with people who know the goods: "In fact, it is also very rare in the United States, and if you are willing to spend more than a million dollars to buy it, you have to be worth tens of millions to consider it." ”

"Makes sense." Wang Taotao agreed, looking at the top of his head: "Can it open the carport?" ”

"Yes, disassemble it manually." Meng Qian turned around and went down the mountain. "But it's winter, and your sister has abolished—"

"Abolished my twenty-four-hour voting rights." Wang Taotao burst into tears.

"Hahaha." Meng Qian smiled and accelerated on the road, a loud roar came from behind, and the body of the car could feel that it was a restless beast.

California's Highway 1 is famous for its coastal location and stunning views of the mountains and the sea. They spent a day running, stopping and stopping on the road, which also allowed Wang Taotao to get over the addiction of top-of-the-line sports cars, and also sightseeing in the city of Monterrey.

Arrive in Los Angeles in the evening, stay in the hotel, go straight to his mansion in Beverly Hills, play all day, and enjoy the heated pool that night, and sit comfortably in the colorful pool rendered by mood lighting. Looking at the city under the mountain in the distance, the taste is delicious!

Wang Manwen talked and laughed with her mother, and the three men on Meng Qian's side were also talking about what they saw today, Wang Renliang paid more attention to Meng Qian, and the topic also revolved around batteries and cars: "I have long heard that electric vehicles are very popular in California, and it is really the case today." ”

"Tesla has met dozens of times." Wang Taotao nodded.

"Other brands are also on the rise to improve their networks of charging stations." Meng Qian introduced. "But because of the recent continuous decline in oil prices, electric vehicle production has suffered."

Wang Renliang said: "Clean energy is inevitably the way out of the future. Sooner or later, electric vehicles will also prevail. ”

"Of course." Wang Taotao nodded, "Now that the fines for pollution are so severe, who doesn't keep an eye on cleaning?" Just look at the public, the United States is going to slaughter it this time! ”

"I heard that there are tens of billions?" Wang Renliang looked at Meng Qian.

Meng Qian also understood: "The theoretical fine will be very high, according to local law, a car is fined 37,500 US dollars. According to the total number of vehicles involved, tens of billions of dollars in fines will be imposed. ”

Wang Taotao asked: "How should the public pay it back?" ”

"I can't afford it." Meng Qian shook his head, "Volkswagen's revenue in 2014 exceeded 200 billion euros, but it was useless, and its operating profit was less than 13 billion euros." ”

"Unless the core business repays debts; Or use political and economic relations. "Wang Renliang saw it quite thoroughly. That's what Volkswagen might be doing in the near future.

"Sell Lamborghini to Chinese tyrants!" Wang Taotao blurted out, "There are so many large enterprises in China, I bought Volvo before, and I bought Rambo this time!" ”

"Lamborghini is a subsidiary of Audi." Meng Qian mentioned that, of course, Audi is a subsidiary of Volkswagen.

"Audi is not easy to sell." Wang Renliang shook his head, "This company has a revenue of more than 50 billion euros, a good financial situation, and a comprehensive product line. ”

"The pressure on China's rich is quite high......" Wang Taotao muttered, and looked at Meng Qian again: "Brother-in-law, you are now the richest in our country, you see?" ”

Wang Renliang spoke first: "You have to treat it as an investment, it's not worth it to him at all, what is the net profit margin of Audi?" Any company under his command is a multiple of it. ”

"Uncle is right." Meng Qian agreed, "Of course, from the perspective of interest, if you want to buy Audi and its subsidiaries, it is not impossible." ”

"Brother-in-law, I knew you were a real trench!" Wang Taotao's eyes lit up, "Five tens of billions of handwriting, this is Bill. Gates doesn't have the funds to come up with, right? ”

"I don't have that much money. Forbes' prediction of my net worth was accurate. Meng Qian said with a smile, but it didn't mean that he didn't have the ability to absorb the funds.

The consortium can do it, not to mention the fraternity he joined, which has several consortiums and a large group of rich people, and he really wants to buy it...... The automotive industry is pretty good, isn't it?

For traditional gasoline models, Meng Qian can't play many tricks, but for the electric vehicles that have just risen, he can still learn from many avant-garde technologies in the future.

If you look at it in the long run, its future with a little advanced technology is quite good; More importantly, Fuguo Power will decline in the future, and will be abandoned by Meng Qian and the consortium to cash out for money.

So the question arises: is it worth it to realize the value of Rich Country Power and exchange it for a more promising Audi?

This accidental idea made Meng Qian ponder for a long time.

He is interested in owning a car brand, not to mention that Audi also has Lamborghini and Ducati, Lamborghini needless to say, a top sports car brand; And Ducati (Italy), which can also be said to be the Lamborghini of the motorcycle industry, is synonymous with high-end and expensive.

Sports cars and motorcycles are available, and Audi is also a brand that can cover both the middle and high ends. Standing up, it is fully capable of building a broad automotive group.

And the power of Fuguo in his hands will decline in the future - it is his INE company that really wants to make money from batteries and develop for a long time.

If you think about it, even if Wells Fargo Power can't realize so much money, what about his other companies? What about consortia? With the good operation and future of his enterprises, 50 billion is not difficult.

What's more, this is not a full acquisition, only 51% of the shares and voting rights need to be bought, Audi is not Volkswagen, if it is more secure, it will be 55%.

Audi's current market value is about 29 billion euros (at the beginning of 2016), and if it is acquired, it should be more than 30 billion yuan, and the high price may be 450 billion yuan...... You can still find a way to raise it.

Buy is the ability to buy, but the public sells or not?

This is also a problem. Despite the news that Volkswagen wants to sell some of its shares in Audi in response to the "emissionsgate" crisis and hefty fines, it holds more than 99.55% of Audi's shares, which may not be sold out – Audi is also the cash cow of its group.

Before going to bed at night, Wang Manwen heard his thoughts: "Really interested? ”

"It's not clear, imagine it." Meng Qian turned over to look at her, "What do you think?" ”

"It's not possible in the normal way, but you have a lot of hole cards in your hand." Wang Manwen analyzed for him, "The attitude of the U.S. government is very important to the amount of fines imposed on the public, and they feel that too many fines will cause serious industry, so they will be lightened; If not, it will be aggravated. ”

Meng Qian understood that using the hand of the US government to exert pressure is indeed a good way: if you sell, we will punish less; If you don't sell it, you will fan the flames and punish more.

Wang Manwen said: "The second point, the future of the car is electric-driven, and you are in control of the 'oil pipeline' in the new era, Toyota is already a fiasco example, do you think the public will be afraid?" ”

Toyota is indeed a tragic case, they are still very strong in business capacity, but after the new energy vehicle era hit, they have been unable to succeed - they are still suing for lawsuits against the rich country group for abuse of monopoly position......

Toyota can be said to be the chicken that kills all the monkeys, and the public must also understand the power of this, if they are stubborn, the rich country group will have a way to kill them in the future.

"That's a good idea." (To be continued.) )
