Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 2183 This tone is too loud

Luo Hao took a deep look at the other party and couldn't help but lower his voice and said to Chen Jianghai: "Mr. Chen, how could Ford send such a low-level person to acquire Volvo Cars? This is too stupid!"

"He said the purpose of his trip in front of so many people, so he is not afraid of leaking business secrets! If he delays things because of this, he will regret it later."

Chen Jianghai said calmly: "Maybe people think they have a chance to win and have already taken Volvo's car business as their own."

"Besides, this is not what we want. If we know our competitors in advance, we can prescribe the right medicine and carry out preventive and targeted strategies."

"Please listen carefully later and see what they will say."

Luo Hao quickly agreed, then pricked up his ears and listened carefully to what the wretched middle-aged uncle was talking about.

John, who was sitting next to the wretched uncle, felt somewhat embarrassed at the moment. He felt that his colleague Chris next to him was really embarrassed.

In order to pick up girls, he was so outspoken and said everything.

However, he couldn't say much about such behavior.

Because the other party has a higher position than him and is the main person in charge of the acquisition of Volvo's car business.

He could only answer calmly: "The specific price will only be known after the negotiation. However, according to our data analysis, the Volvo Group's offer will not be less than US$60 billion."

John had kept his voice as low as possible.

He also used this to remind Chris that it was inappropriate for them to talk about this loudly here.

After all, this is a company's trade secret, and it's of a very high level. I'm afraid it will be passed back to the head office by someone who wants to do it, and they might be in trouble as well.

However, Chris obviously did not notice his intention.

In other words, this guy is deliberately pretending not to understand his intentions.

Because he just doesn't care.

I heard Chris continue to say loudly: "The acquisition price of US$60 billion is a bit too expensive. Where does Volvo Cars have the confidence to ask for such a high price?!"

"We at the Ford Group must not let him ask for whatever price he wants. After all, although his Volvo sales are good, it is actually at a loss, otherwise it would be impossible to sell it in a hurry."

"Our Ford Group is purely out of good intentions, taking over their automobile business and helping them get out of this big trouble."

"So the price must be lowered! If you ask me, I will give them a maximum of 50 billion US dollars by then, and there is no need to negotiate a penny more."

He opened his mouth and kept talking about billions of dollars, which made all the first-class guests secretly speechless.

Of course, many people still don't believe it and think Chris is just bragging.

And John next to him is a very good supporting role, trying hard to cooperate with his performance and singing along with him just right.

Otherwise, under normal circumstances, who would tell such a thing to others.

Of course, some discerning and insightful business people are frowning more and more.

Because they thought about it carefully, it was really possible.

After all, although Volvo Cars is a second-tier luxury brand, compared with Ford, there is still a considerable gap in terms of global fame and prestige as well as overall sales.

The car is a very good car, but in terms of sales, it simply cannot compare.

To be honest, people from the Volvo Group are not very good at publicity.

There are obviously many very practical technologies in their hands.

For example, they invented the three-point seat belt and the airbag.

But they handed over these technologies to others and let others use them casually without any conditions attached.The result is that everyone uses Volvo's technology, but they don't know that Volvo invented it.

This also shows that Volvo's technology is quite powerful, and the benefits of Ford's acquisition of it are also considerable.

Once Ford acquires Volvo's car business, it can use their advantages to make Volvo's brand more famous, and making money will naturally come naturally.

John didn't bother to remind Chris anymore. Chris was the main person in charge of this matter anyway, so he didn't care, and it didn't matter to John as an entourage.

Moreover, he also felt that even if the news was leaked in advance, it would not matter much.

Because they have been planning this acquisition plan for more than a year, and all the necessary conditions have been prepared before coming.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Ford Group is sure to win this acquisition project.

Now we are just on the verge of reaching the final goal. No matter what happens, it will be difficult to affect the final result.

Even if some relatively powerful companies want to intercept the news after getting the news, facing such a large acquisition project, there is no way to collect all the information in a short time.

There are also financial preparations and other ancillary preparations that are almost impossible to complete the task.

Another thing is that there are not many companies in the world that can acquire Volvo Cars.

After all, there are few large groups in the world as powerful as Ford who are willing to acquire Volvo's automotive business.

And other powerful people often don’t match up professionally.

Naturally, I have no interest in such a project.

Chris talked freely on the plane, but most people just took it as a joke.

Even if there are a few successful people who listen carefully, but they have not been involved in the automobile industry, they will not have much reaction even if they hear it.

How could anyone reveal such a business secret so easily?
Ford's acquisition of Volvo Cars in Sweden may have a huge impact on global automakers.

Now this news has spread from Chris's mouth. Once it is leaked and the acquisition fails, he will be the sinner of Ford.

Of course, it’s not unreasonable for Chris to be so arrogant.

They, Ford, had made adequate preparations for this acquisition negotiation. John held a briefcase in his hand, which contained important information in all aspects.

Chris's lack of scruples also proves from the side that Ford is fully prepared and confident.

He has great confidence to win Volvo Cars.

But Chris's tone was too loud.

60 billion US dollars is the most reasonable price they calculated based on various statistics.

It's better for Chris. In order to increase his sense of existence, or show off his identity, he directly reduced his salary by one billion.

Fortunately, their conversation was not a work report. Otherwise, if the people above found out about it, they would have been scolded violently when they returned home.

And those who can sit in first class are obviously people with status and status.

Maybe he is a senior executive of which group.

What happened on the plane today will definitely be recorded.

Finally, if the Ford Group cannot acquire Volvo Cars for US$50 billion, it will definitely become a joke in the industry.
