The teams on both sides of Bai Jieru and Guo Yuan are busy, but Wang Yu is slightly idle.

While he was still busy, Wang Yu simply went to the European continent across the English Channel for a tour.

Spain, Greece, the Netherlands, France, and Italy had to interrupt the journey halfway through the journey, because news came from the Bruce side.

Wang Yu, who rushed back to London, did not have to return to the hotel, because Luo Qianqian and her team had already returned to HK, and this time he could live directly in the manor in the town of Hampstead, a suburb of London.

The vacant villa was named Black Swan Manor by Bai Jieru, and it has a bit of a taste of the gray rhinoceros capital in it.

"Oh my God, it's an Andalusian horse!"

Seeing Wang Yu washing a white tall horse under the guidance of a professional horse breeder, Bruce, who entered the Black Swan Manor, shouted exaggeratedly: "Mr. Wang, I admit that I am jealous of you!" ”

"This is one of my business partners, Ms. Bai Jieru, the CEO of Yonghua Bank."

Wang Yu meticulously washed the horses, and at the same time introduced Bai Jieru, who was standing aside: "Next, I have another acquisition in London, and I need Ms. Bai's support."

"Beautiful Lady Bai, I was really fascinated by the Andalusian horse just now, I'm really sorry for ignoring your presence!"

Bruce stretched out his hand and shook Bai Jieru: "Yonghua Bank. I remember a bank based in Southeast Asia, right? ”

"We have moved our headquarters to HK and have begun to enter the Huaxia business."

Bai Jieru smiled and said: "We are extremely optimistic about the Chinese market!" ”

"Heroes see the same thing!"

Bruce nodded approvingly: "We at Goldman Sachs have also increased our investment in the mainland of China in recent years, which is a key area for us to invest in high growth in the future."

While he was chatting with Bai Jieru, Wang Yu finally completed this washing.

"Guo Yuan, let's talk to Bruce and Governor Bai first, and I'll go change my clothes."

Guo Yuan took Chu Sisi and Song Qing to live in the Black Swan Villa, and she and Bruce were docking a series of things before, so the two were relatively familiar.

"Miss Guo, the advance payment has arrived, thank you for your trouble."

Bruce warmly shook hands with Guo Yuan, and the thanks he said referred to the matter of the entrustment agency contract, according to the contract, the first 50% advance payment of 2.5 million meters has arrived.

"This is part of our sincerity, the boss explains, I just execute."

Guo Yuan didn't take credit, brushed over the matter in a word, and then asked politely: "Mr. Bruce, black tea or coffee?" ”

"Black tea bar, after staying in London for a long time, there are more opportunities to drink black tea than coffee."

Bai Jieru asked for a cup of coffee, and several people sat down on the sofa in front of the fireplace and began to chat.

"Did your people visit the Opel headquarters before?"

Bruce was well-informed and asked Guo Yuan about arranging for the team of experts to visit Opel: "How do you feel about the whole?" ”

"It's just a matter of sightseeing."

Guo Yuan is wearing a suit she bought in Savile Row a few days ago, with a coffee-colored cashmere shirt on the top, a knee-length plaid skirt in wool fabric underneath, black silk high heels, and Gucci's new gold-framed glasses, showing the style of a strong woman in the workplace.

Her evaluation of the visit was very straightforward, and the straightforward Bruce laughed.

"Every year, the headquarters of Opel sends out thousands of such invitations, and this kind of visit can only see the glamorous appearance of Opel"

"Like a city dotted with the Eye of London?"

Guo Yuan said sharply: "It is difficult to hide the vicissitudes of history!" ”

Bruce was stunned for a moment, then let out a louder laugh, and gave Guo Yuan a thumbs up while laughing: "Miss Guo's metaphor is amazing!" ”

After laughing, he lamented: "The British are a little crazy in this regard, and they are no longer stubborn about some so-called traditions." ”

"Indeed, like the tradition that some clubs in the Premier League adhere to"

Bai Jieru on the side also made a similar sigh, in the past few days, the team below her has touched the Premier League and even the teams in the English League, and found a lot of strange traditions.

"Oh, Ms. Bai likes to watch football?"

Bruce turned to Bai Jieru: "Although I am a Chinese, I am a Liverpool fan, which team does Ms. Bai support?" ”

"I'm not a fan, but Wang always wants to buy a Premier League team to play with."

“O MAY GOD！”

Bruce's mouth opened wide in an instant: "Mr. Wang wants to be the owner of a Premier League team, this is really a thing. An amazing thing! ”

"Bruce, this thing is not magical, your United States boss has already bought the shares of Manchester United, and Chelsea and Manchester City have also changed owners in recent years"

Wang Yu, who came down from the second floor, said to Bruce with a smile: "The Premier League has become a world-class competition, its influence is enough to attract the attention of capital all over the world, and the domestic and foreign broadcast costs of this event have reached 3 billion pounds per year, and the ability to attract money deserves to rank first among the five major European leagues!" ”

"Damn, you're not going to do it like a business, are you?"

Bruce was a little frustrated: "Mr. Wang, you're going to ruin a football club by doing this." ”

'Did Abou ruin Chelsea or did Mansour ruin Manchester City?'

Wang Yu shrugged his shoulders: "Don't worry, even if it is a business, I will run the club first and then talk about making money, maybe next year you can watch the game with me in the VIP box of a Premier League club, and I will buy a superstar with superb football skills and strong popularity."

"I'm a Liverpool fan!"

Bruce stiffened his neck and insisted, but seemed to waver a little: "Remember to leave me a place in the VIP seat. Damn it, you're corrupting my love for Liverpool! ”

With this mutter, the living room let out a good-natured laugh.

"Bruce, your call interrupted my trip to Europe, and the beautiful escorts of Oxford."

Wang Yu handed Bruce a cigar and said with a smile: "You'd better bring me good news!" ”

"Mr. Wang, get ready to negotiate!"

Bruce lit his cigar with a rightfully proud expression on his face: "Even Fritz Henderson can't stop the fate of Opel being sold, you are right before, they need cash flow too much." ”

"When, where?"

"Next Monday, Opel headquarters!"

Bruce leaned back into the back of the sofa, crossed his legs, and smoked a cigar; "Before you do this, you submit a takeover offer to GM headquarters, and GM will send you a reply. Next Monday, the two sides will have the first round of contact at the Opel headquarters, and you will come up with an acquisition plan, and they will put forward conditions. ”

Wang Yu turned to Guo Yuan: "Let's act!" ”

Finally came to this point, Guo Yuan suppressed her emotions and nodded heavily; "I'll arrange it right away."

"Mr. Bruce, judging by your judgment, what kind of conditions will GM put forward on the side?"

At this time, Bai Jieru spoke, and she asked a "presumptuous" question instead of Wang Yu, but her identity was not obtrusive.

"I estimate that the first round of contact will quote a price of no less than 1.5 billion yuan."

Bruce pondered for a moment and responded: "In addition to the offer, it may also involve Opel's R&D center and production base in Lysselsheim, Germany, after all, a car company has brought jobs and taxes to the local area, and your acquisition must not only reach an agreement with GM, but also obtain the consent of the local government."

"Of course, I won't do anything about killing chickens and taking eggs."

Wang Yu said with a smile: "The design and R&D center can be set up in Lutersheim and Modu, as for the production base. The production capacity of Lysselsheim will be left to Europe, and I will re-establish a large production base in the magic city to meet the production capacity of the Chinese market! ”

At least half of the people in the R&D center in Lysselsheim will have to travel to the R&D center in the magic capital, and the technicians recruited by Wang Yu in China will also arrange a considerable number of people to travel to the headquarters in Lysselsheim, Germany.

As for the production of this piece. When it comes to industrial workers, there has never been a shortage of workers in China.

"I don't know what the details are, but I have to warn you!"

Bruce smacked his lips and said: "In the end, there is not much of a problem on the side of General Headquarters, and your obstacles are likely to come from the German side, their old-fashioned and arrogant are no worse than the British, you have to be mentally prepared for this." ”

"I'll be mentally prepared."

Wang Yu smiled and nodded: "Fortunately, we are not the first Huaxia company to cooperate with German car companies, the German Volkswagen in Huaxia cooperation investment was very successful, I believe that German car companies can see this, the future of the world's largest growth of car users in the market in Huaxia, this is the industry recognized things, I don't believe they can't see." ”

"So good luck to you!"

Seeing Wang Yu's confident appearance, Bruce shrugged his shoulders and said, "Maybe what you said makes sense." ”

"My promise still works!"

At this time, Wang Yu once again vaguely mentioned what he talked about with Bruce last time; "I hope that from now on, Mr. Bruce will be able to help us with this acquisition."

"I still have a lot of old friends in GM."

Bruce said this meaningfully, which was a response to Wang Yu's previous words.

The two sides looked at each other and smiled, and it seemed that they had a good understanding of each other.

After chatting about Opel, Wang Yu turned his attention to Bai Jieru.

"Well, which teams in the Premier League do you think are worth buying?"

"If you take into account the history of the club and the potential of the city in which it is located, the team below me has made three acquisitions proposals."

Bai Jieru responded to Wang Yu with a smile: "Two of the teams are located in London, namely Tottenham Hotspur and West Ham United, and the other one is a bit unexpected."

Wang Yu: "? ”

"Newcastle, another industrial powerhouse in the north-east of England, are currently relegated from League One."

Bai Jieru only hesitated slightly: "But this team is also a regular in the Premier League, and has won many honors in history, won a league championship, won the FA Cup in 6 and even won the League Cup, although it was relegated last season, but this season has a good result in the first division, and it is expected to return to the English Premier League next season."

"Tottenham Hotspur is not considering it for the time being."

Wang Yu frowned and said, "The current club president, Levi, is too shrewd and a businessman who is not easy to deal with. And they shouldn't have any plans to sell the team in the near future, so don't think about Tottenham. ”

'Then it's left with Newcastle and West Ham United.'

Bai Jieru nodded and continued: "Which one to contact first?" ”

"West Ham are in London, of course it's close to the principle."

At this time, Wang Yu suddenly turned to Bruce: "Do you want to participate?" ”

Bruce was obviously stunned for a moment, and then saw the smile on the corner of Wang Yu's mouth, and immediately understood the meaning.

If the negotiation between Wang Yu's side and Opel is finally successful, and the price is less than 1.2 billion meters, then the commission involving Bruce's side is not a small number.

How did the money get to Bruce?

It would be too obvious and blatant to repeat the previous consulting contract, but if Bruce used his status to participate in the negotiations for Wang Yu's acquisition of a Premier League club and played an "important role" in it, then Wang Yu could pay Bruce accordingly through the acquirer, Yonghua Bank.

Reasonable, legitimate.

"The Icelandic consortium that originally bought West Ham for 85 million pounds can't stand it, and they are now actively selling West Ham clubs, and there are already Fernandes, Selino, Sullivan and others participating in the bidding."

Since Wang Yu decided to talk about West Ham first, Bai Jieru naturally began to introduce the relevant situation of this club: "So far, West Ham currently owes more than 110 million pounds, of which 50 million pounds are owed to the bank, 40 million pounds are owed to other clubs (including the 30 million pounds compensation involved in the transfer of Tevez), and the compensation for the dismissal of former coach Kobilish. ”

"Sullivan"

When Wang Yu heard the name, certain memories flooded into his mind, this seems to be a die-hard West Ham fan, and he is also a billionaire, and he won West Ham in the end.

"Keep an eye on this person."

At a critical time, Wang Yu still reminded Bai Jieru: "He is a die-hard fan of West Ham and a super-rich man himself, if he intends to participate in the acquisition of West Ham United, we will be under great pressure."

"I'm going to get in touch with the Icelandic consortium."

Bruce interjected in time: "I am very familiar with Eggert Magnussen of the Icelandic consortium, and I will go and make an appointment with him in the afternoon." ”

didn't expect Bruce to have this relationship, Wang Yu and Bai Jieru's eyes lit up at the same time.

"Hahaha, now I feel that this hire is very worthwhile, right?"

Bruce raised his eyebrows at Wang Yu: "Don't forget that I am still an executive of Goldman Sachs Investment Bank, capital knows no borders, not only Europe or United States, my ability is far beyond your imagination!" ”

"Yes, my friend, our cooperation has been very pleasant since Mobike Technology (Southeast Asia) and Fruit Orange Takeaway (Southeast Asia), isn't it?"

For Wang Yu, such a blues is the best partner to work with.
