Before I walked through the door, I heard the voices of three people talking, during this period of time, Kim so-young's English has improved greatly, but with a strong Korean accent, in general, there is no problem with English communication, very fluent.

As for Han Chenghao, after living in the United States for so many years, he naturally has an authentic American pronunciation, and he can bluff people at this point, and in terms of language, Han Chenghao's performance is still good.

In the words of Kim Do-jun, Han Cheng-ho's biggest purpose in learning English is not anything else, but to go to the bar to pick up girls, communicate with foreigners, it is impossible to use Korean, although many times money and gestures can solve the problem, but Han Sung-ho always feels a bit like doing business, not very comfortable, or spent a lot of effort to learn English well, because of this, Kim Do-jun is relieved to put him in the UK, there will be no moths, this he is still relieved, Han Chenghao don't look at the hanger, but in big things, Unambiguous, standard henchmen.

As soon as he saw Kim Do-jun lying on the chair, Han Sung-ho hurriedly trotted over, picked up coffee from the chair next to him, and poured it all in.

The sound of "cooing", I only saw Han Chenghao's neck shaking constantly, and I could see that this guy was also very thirsty, but when he got off the plane, it was impossible to drink without water, looking at his appearance, he was a little disgusted, you must know that this cup of coffee, he had just drunk it, but this guy didn't care at all.

In one breath, after drinking a cup of coffee, I was comfortable and burped, and said with a smile.

"You kid is so comfortable, lie here, look at the stars and the moon. We're out there for you. Earn money for you. I really envy me! ”

The relationship between Han Sung-ho and Kim Do-jun is not ordinary, everyone knows it, so he is the only one who can be in front of Kim Do-jun, no big or small, without any scruples, and he can say whatever he wants.

Kim Do-joon wasn't angry either, he just got up from his chair and leaned back slightly. teased.

"What? Think it's hard work? Why don't I find someone to replace you? ”

Han Chenghao's stinky temper, Kim Dojun really understands it too well, every time he comes to complain, it is for a purpose, it is nothing more than a salary increase, or he needs Kim Dojun to care about it and give him some benefits.

It stands to reason that Kim Do-jun's treatment of Han Sung-ho is really not low, compared with the CEO of a world-class company, it is only high and not low, except that there is no equity dividend. Basically met all his needs, you must know that Han Chenghao has nothing. He didn't study at any university in the United States, nor did he have much experience in business management, and Kim Do-joon's price reached tens of millions of dollars.

This is not a small amount, how many CEOs of companies in the world can get so many salaries, except for the well-known high-tech companies in the United States, how many can be left, just look at South Korea, and there are very few who can get tens of millions of dollars in salaries.

"Don't don't, I'm just kidding, why are you so stingy, I flew back from England so hard, I didn't let you tease me!"

Han Chenghao found a stool at random and sat aside, at this time Walker also came over, stood up and hugged Kim Do-jun, patted each other on the back, every time they met, the time was very short, and it was not convenient, there was something, basically it was solved by phone, but from the current feedback situation, KDJ Bank under the leadership of Walker, the integration is very good, and it has slowly been on the right track, the two banks that were not originally the same company, without making a big move, rely on internal integration, and team training, improve efficiency, business has begun to have a recovery trend, profits have also increased significantly, and successfully turned losses into profits.

On this point, Kim Do-joon also gave Walker a score of 90, which is quite good.

This time the two of them came together, there must be something important, otherwise they wouldn't have brought Walker, Han Chenghao, he must be selfish, he came back not only for work, but partly for his girlfriend, what this kid was thinking, Kim Dojun guessed clearly.

If I'm not mistaken, after the report tonight, I may take a plane back to Seoul, and I don't want to stay a quarter of an hour longer.

There is nothing more important than seeing a girlfriend, instead of fooling around here with Kim Do-joon, it is better to go home and hug a woman, and a woman in her arms is better than sleeping alone on the floor alone.

"Alright, let's all sit down, let's talk about something!"

After a while, they each sat down, and Kim Dojun waved his hand and immediately spoke.

"Walker, come on, I'm afraid it's not good!"

Han Chenghao patted Walker's shoulder, and immediately said, this kind of report is more appropriate for Walker, with a clear mind, clear organization, neither humble nor arrogant, and can also put forward his own reasonable suggestions on the basis of professional analysis.

When they were on the plane, the two exchanged reasonable opinions based on the acquisition plan, and each talked about what he thought.

"Okay, then let me tell you, Daojun, the main purpose of coming back this time is that Cheng Hao and I, including Joshua, have received a very good acquisition case, we don't dare to call the shots, and this kind of thing is not clear on the phone, the three of us discussed it, or I think it is necessary to communicate with you in person!"

Kim Do-joon didn't say anything after hearing this, just nodded, crossed his hands, put them on his chest, and motioned for them to continue.

"I don't know if you haven't heard of Harrods?"

Everyone who is planning to travel and shop in London, England, will definitely come across the name Harrods, Harrods when looking through any travel guide.

Of course, Kim Do-joon knows that this department store has a long history, just like Galeries Lafayette in France, Harrods is not only a large shopping mall that attracts international attention, but also represents a British culture, both from the brand design and the architectural style, reflecting the traditional style and royal atmosphere.

Founded in 1834, Harrods is a seven-story palace with the world's best brands, and there are dozens or hundreds of styles to choose from.

In 2005. Forbes magazine named Harrods the World's Best Shopping Destination of the Year for its unique shopping experience.

The famous Harold motto is: "Deliver whatever anyone needs, anywhere!" ”

This mythical maxim is never blown out. Harold for more than 100 years. There have indeed been many incredible deals made.

It has created many world firsts in its history: the world's first winter sale, the introduction of the first escalator, and the sale of the first television.

When former U.S. President Ronald Reagan was governor of California, someone gave him an elephant, and Harold undertook the deal; A British businessman bought a gift for his wife - a tight Augusta A109 helicopter wrapped in 600 meters of red paper and 150 rolls of duct tape; If you wish, you can have Madame Tussauds make your own wax figure for you for £250,000.

In addition, the employees who worked here are also well-known, and in the 70s of the 20th century, David . Prowse works as a fitness instructor in the athletic department. The most famous 007 Pierce. Brosnan was an employee of Harrods' medicine cabinet before he was discovered by a scout...... At Harold, every cell, every brick and tile illustrates the word "legend".

"What's wrong with this company? How did you suddenly come into your sight? ”

Kim Do-joon took the document from Walker's hand, which contained all kinds of information about Harrods, from daily income and expenditure, to the profit and loss ratio, to the current debt ratio, annual sales, etc., to look at these figures. It is to entrust a professional company to investigate, and the content is very detailed. The credibility is high.

While listening to Walker's introduction, Kim Do-joon carefully checked the information on the document report to see if there were any problems, or they were easy to overlook.

"Although the current department store industry is in a weak state, but we can find that with the recovery of the economy, especially Asians, including Chinese, to overseas consumption ** is more and more intense, I see this year Harrods, the job fair alone Chinese employees more than 50, this number of growth is very rare, and as a world-renowned department store, Harrods has a history of 150 years, not only the most famous department store in the UK, but also this store, Just like the steam engine, full of antique charm, and now it has established itself as a world-class luxury shopping, walking at the pinnacle of fashion, in short, if Daojun, you really want to enter the UK in a big way, this store is as a service, as a brand, as the image façade of KDJ Group Company, this is the best choice! ”

Walker also considered this problem, KDJ was established for too short a time, there is not enough historical accumulation, to put it bluntly, it is not enough aristocratic atmosphere and culture.

What kind of country is the United Kingdom, a constitutional monarchy full of aristocratic atmosphere and royal culture, the queen represents the supreme head of the country, although there is no actual power to govern, but in the hearts of the people, the royal family is still supreme, not something that ordinary people can climb.

This is also why Britain has always admired aristocracy, and still retains the title and title of nobility, and the education from an early age is responsibility, honor, courage, self-discipline and so on.

They are the responsibility of British culture, the soul of freedom, with independent will, as the elite of society, cherish honor, help the disadvantaged, not all people can become nobles.

It is said that if you want to cultivate a compliant nobleman, you can't just have money, and the aristocracy represents a spirit, a dignity, and a super high character.

According to Kim Dojoon's idea, the company will vigorously enter the UK and enter the EU market in the future, so it is necessary to have a good image and culture, if you can acquire this department store, this is not the same in the eyes of many British people.

Founded in 1849, it started as a small grocery store and now has successfully opened a new store in London Heathrow Terminal 5, this 11,000-square-foot store is the world's first airport fashion department store.

The success of an enterprise, many times, not only depends on excellent products and quality, of course, this is a must, is the premise, without these, success can not be talked about.

And the brand and image are also very important, if you can Harrods, at least KDJ Group will have a foot in the retail industry, will put a deep imprint in the hearts of the public, that is, this 150-year-old fashion department store, belongs to KDJ Group and belongs to Kim Do-jun himself.

In this way, the KDJ Group's Jaguar and Land Rover, KDJ Group's banks, including charitable foundations, etc., will be affected to varying degrees.

People will also subconsciously think of it when shopping.

"Hey, isn't this KDJ's company? It seems that Jaguar and Land Rover's cars are also their family! ”

When I go to the bank to handle business or loans, I can't help but think about it.

"Isn't this company owned by the KDJ Group either? How big is their house! “

According to Kim Do-joon's idea, in the future, he will also enter the British electricity, water, natural gas, etc., and it is best to further enter the European continent through the British market.

Now his pace is not a little faster than others, and Li Chaoren, the richest man in Asia and the richest man in Hong Kong, also seems to have a large acquisition, ready to share a point with Kim Dojun in the British market.

"How much do you think this acquisition will cost, and have you budgeted for it?"

Kim Do-jun frowned, this document is very well done, it is indeed very detailed, but the price of the acquisition is relatively conservative, ranging from 500 million pounds to 1.5 billion pounds.

The valuation of a department store is so high, once it costs more than 1 billion pounds to acquire, how many years will it take to earn back, these are all to be calculated in detail, and after a feasibility analysis, you can show yourself.

Kim Do-jun invited all financial professionals, not laymen, and he was a little dissatisfied with the lack of this report.

"Judging from the survey we have done so far, it is conservatively estimated that it will take 1.3 billion pounds, which is also a thorough investigation, and I inquired a little!"

Walker said with an embarrassed face.

He also knows that there are indeed some problems in this regard, but the problem is not entirely on him, he has not obtained Kim Do-jun's authorization, and he cannot negotiate the acquisition on behalf of KDJ Group or KDJ Bank, and others will not negotiate with him, especially since the purchase price is the core of the whole case, and there is really no way to inquire about their bottom line.

It was also at a jockey club that he overheard that the owner of Harrods was interested in selling the famous department store.

Kim Do-jun nodded after hearing this, his brows were still locked, such an acquisition time was too short, too hasty, and it had to go through a long period of investigation and negotiation before the final acquisition agreement could be reached.

But looking at this, Kim Do-joon is still quite interested, he has his own department store, not to mention anything else, he will go shopping for clothes and shopping in the future, but there is a good place to go, at least he can take Taeyeon with him, and he can have a good time in the UK.

On the night of Kamakura, a full moon hung in the sky, and the four of them talked for a long time on the lawn outside, but still did not come to a final conclusion, but Kim Do-joon raised a very interesting topic.

"I want to ask, Taeyeon is about to have a birthday, what do you think is the right birthday gift for me?" (To be continued......)
