At the end of October 1986, the Nord stock market suddenly fluctuated dramatically, and a large number of shareholders suffered heavy losses, including some overseas funds, and the root cause of this came from the United States.

"This is a warning from the automotive industry to us, it is from Audi, and you are responsible for it."

At the Cabinet Business Meeting, James directly put the responsibility for this financial incident on the president of Audi AG, although he was somewhat wronged, but there was nothing to defend the matter so far.

According to statistics, the loss this time is about 2 billion euros, of which the loss of royal investment accounts for 30%, the government losses account for 23%, and the rest is the loss of Nord citizens and foreign travel capital, which is generally acceptable.

"Shall we make up for the loss of the royal family?"

Nord is a monarchy rather than a constitutional monarchy, and although the cabinet is the core of the government, they also need to take into account the pressure from the royal family, and the loss of hundreds of millions of euros Home Secretary Smith is worried that James will not be able to account for it.

"Let's not mention this matter for the time being, the government's loss is not small, and it is not easy for us to squeeze out hundreds of millions of euros to make up for it, so let's wait and talk!"

When the major media reported on this incident, Nord Audi suddenly held a press conference to announce that the British aristocratic brand Bentley had been completely acquired by Audi.

That day, Joseph was eating breakfast in the palace and reading the newspaper, and the headline on the headline directly made Joseph freeze in place, and it took a while to laugh and recover.

"When other car companies think that Audi's target is Rolls-Royce, Audi has secretly acquired Bentley, although the international reputation is poor, but it also makes up for the biggest loophole of Audi."

Joseph's comments were completely in Abner's ears, and he did not say anything, except to say as he left: "I think Bentley is more in line with the republican presidents than Rolls-Royce." ”

The good mood was shattered by Abner's words, but Joseph understood that Abner's pursuit of these brands was ancient and traditional, and Bentley was slightly less luxurious than Bentley.

Audi's press conference was undoubtedly a success, and after several years, Audi regained its position at the heart of the economy of the Principality of Nord, and the crackdown on the banking and IT industries did not make it dilute the core of the Principality of Nord.

In November 1986, Audi AG was reorganized, and so far NORD Royal Heavy Industries has shared three major car brands, mid-to-high-end Audi, high-end Bentley, and supercar Bugatti Veyron.

Because of the Bentley acquisition, Audi's sales skyrocketed, and the president of Audi was also a very capable person, taking the opportunity to launch a new model, the new car was mainly aimed at women and older people.

As of December 1986, the market share of new cars reached almost 60 percent in Europe, and 15 percent of the remaining 40 percent belonged to Audi's old models, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, and Citroen were squeezed into a mess.

"Maybe one day we can buy Mercedes-Benz and BMW, and I hope that day will come sooner."

These are the words of Joseph during his tour of the Audi assembly shop, and these words are like a conviction that inspired the growth of the Audi company and eventually evolved into a behemoth trust giant.

December 1986, Christmas Eve

"Fashion show?"

"Yes, now NORD's fashion sells well all over the world, and accounts for 32% of the global market, which is quite a terrifying data, Milan and Paris jointly requested to hold a pre-Christmas fashion feast with NORD."

Outside the window was a rare heavy snowfall, and Joseph, who was standing in front of the bedroom window, hesitated and asked: "Where is the venue, Paris is no longer competitive, I think it should have no say in this regard." ”

Paris is the name of fashion, but now Nord occupies its title, so it is correct to say that it has no right to speak, Hermes, Chanel several pillars have become Nord brands, if it is not some heritage, it is estimated that Paris is not even qualified to participate.

"The initial intention is Milan, but after our discussions, maybe in Nord."

James couldn't say for sure, after all, he wasn't in charge of this matter, and he just mentioned it in passing today, but he didn't expect Joseph to pay much more attention to it than Audi.

"We only have one request, the venue of the fashion show must be in Nord, otherwise the Principality of Nord will not participate in this fashion show, how about the magazine media group about fashion?"

"It's already on sale, but because it's a new newspaper, the audience isn't very large."

Although the name of Nord clothing is relatively large, but the corresponding newspapers and magazines still need time, Nord can almost be said to squeeze any industry to the extreme, a fashion show is estimated that magazines, newspapers, film and television will be affected, and even car companies may intervene.

1987 is approaching, Joseph is about to be fifteen years old, fourteen or fifteen is a hurdle, by the age of fifteen Joseph is already half an adult, although he still looks a little immature, but his words and actions are no longer as ridiculous as before.

The economy of the Principality of Nord exploded, which was the first year of economic benefits for the Western Sahara region, but in this year, the economy of Nord increased by 30 percent, and the annual GDP reached 80 billion euros. However, this year's euro has slightly reduced its exchange rate against the dollar, and there will be some losses in between.

After all, the dollar is a global currency, and although the euro is close to the strength of the whole of Europe, it is still not comparable with the United States, and fortunately, the euro is not stable.

Compared with the cars and fashion of the Principality of Nord, the media industry of the Principality of Nord has not developed much, and the newspaper industry is better, relying on martial arts dramas and martial arts newspapers to attract a group of Chinese to occupy part of the share.

Nord has a total of six films that have reached the international level this year, with an average investment of more than 100,000 euros, but it is this level of investment, and the box office that finally comes back is only one million euros.

The Nord principality has its own large cinema, and the cinema is still a super cinema with the top configuration, and most of the Nord citizens are small and rich, and they can afford a few euros of movies.

Half of the million box office of the six films combined is the domestic box office of Nord, and the rest is the overseas box office, seeing such data, Joseph has to sigh that European films are indeed not as good as the United States.

"I'm going to invest in a million-euro movie, and I'm going to stop until I break into Hollywood!"

This is what Joseph said to Kate on Christmas Day in 1986, and Kate on the other side of the computer couldn't help but smile wryly, because no matter how you look at it, there is a very naïve feeling that Joseph is very naïve.
