Rebirth: Return to 1991 to be the richest man

Chapter 2195 Why!
"Mr. Handy, I don't know who told you this, but it must be false. Our top priority at Ford is confidentiality."

"If we leak this matter, it will not benefit us at all, and it will attract many competitors."

John quickly defended, but Handy didn't believe it.

The expressions on Chris and John's faces just now had betrayed them. Anyone who could sit at this table and negotiate was not a fool. It was obvious that everyone at Volvo had seen that John was lying.

"I don't know why you leaked this, but it has a serious impact on our Volvo Group."

Handy tapped the table with his fingers and twitched the corners of his mouth in disdain, "So, I think we should stop the acquisition until I see your apology from Ford."

"In addition, I look forward to you coming up with a specific, detailed and fair acquisition plan."

Hearing Handy's words, not only Chris and John were surprised, but even the senior executives of the Volvo Group were a little surprised.

Actually want to suspend Ford's acquisition of Volvo's car company?

This is not a trivial matter, it is related to whether the Volvo Group can obtain more than 60 billion US dollars in funds.

"Mr. Handy, I apologize for my previous irrationality."

Chris had understood that Handy no longer trusted them, and all the negotiating skills they had prepared at Ford had been eclipsed.

Now to change Handy's attitude, a sincere apology is needed.

"No, you don't need to apologize now, Mr. Chris, you should go hug the flight attendant and continue to enjoy life and get rid of the jet lag. After all, this is indeed a perfect excuse, isn't it?"

Handy said with a sneer.

This is Sweden, and Volvo is a Swedish national treasure. It is easy for Handy to investigate the whereabouts of the two people.

What Chris did was really outrageous.

"No, no, no, Mr. Handy, I think we should sit down and have a good talk. Don't let these little things affect our cooperation, don't you?"

John said hurriedly that he now understood that it was Chris' various behaviors that led to the breakdown of the current negotiations.

"Mr. John, don't you think it's a small thing to be rude to our Volvo Group?"

Handy sneered, and John immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing and quickly apologized.

But now that the matter has come to this, Handy's attitude is very firm.

He can choose to sell Volvo's car company to Ford, but only under a reciprocal relationship.

After a year of negotiations, Volvo may have shown enough sincerity.

But it's obvious that this year's negotiations have given Ford enough confidence to make them feel that they have a sure chance of victory.

Therefore, Handy will give Ford a kick this time.

Seeing that the negotiations had collapsed, Handy was about to give Chris and John an eviction order to drive them away. However, several senior executives of Volvo Company looked a little solemn and started talking quietly around Handy.

Regarding the development of the Volvo Group, they have been unable to develop the Volvo car brand, let alone achieve their goals.

So selling is the best option.

Handy didn't want to hear what these senior officials said, so he waved his hands impatiently, but then he remembered what Chen Jianghai had said to him before.

New energy vehicles have become a nightmare for Handy in the past two days. If you think about it carefully, Chen Jianghai's words seem to be very correct.

After detailed understanding, Handy found that first-tier luxury brands such as Mercedes-Benz and BMW have actually begun to develop new energy batteries and have been making progress in this area. On the other hand, Volvo has been standing still, waiting for Ford's acquisition.This made Handy very unhappy. Even Chen Jianghai, a layman in the automotive field, could keenly grasp this point, but as the president of the Volvo Group, he knew nothing about it.

"Mr. John, I have a question. I wonder if you can answer it for me."

Handy thought about it for a while, and then asked John of Ford.

"Mr. Handy, please speak."

John doesn't want to miss any opportunity. If Handy can consider continuing acquisition negotiations with Ford, it will be an opportunity for John.

"What do you think of Ford in terms of new energy?"

Handy asked without hesitation, but Chris and John looked at each other with hesitation in their expressions.

"Mr. Handy, this is a project that our Ford company is still developing. I don't know much about it, and I can't leak it to the outside world. Please forgive me."

John said helplessly, but through these words Handy discovered the problem.

New energy vehicles are driven by electricity, and their functions are very different from fuel vehicles.

Ford's fuel vehicles pursue movement and speed, and electric and new energy vehicles may not be very suitable.

However, even companies like Ford have begun researching new energy vehicles, which shows that the prospects of this project have been thoroughly accepted by the automotive field and research has already been carried out.

Handy now secretly admires and recognizes Chen Jianghai.

The automobile companies under the Volvo Group master a number of technologies. Volvo is very authoritative in researching automobile technology. Ford's acquisition of Volvo may also be able to get some help and reference for new energy vehicle projects.

This made Handy feel even more dissatisfied.

Why don't you just go it alone?Must the Volvo Group be controlled by others?
Chen Jianghai seems to have made a request for cooperation, and Qiuhai Group is an outsider. If it cooperates with Chen Jianghai, it seems that Volvo will be able to take the initiative and take a leadership position in this cooperation project.

Why should Handy suffer and be ridiculed by Ford while selling the car company?

Why!
The two Ford representatives faced a complete failure in this acquisition negotiation.

Their arrogance destroyed Volvo's patience with them. Chen Jianghai just planted a seed in Handy's heart, and this seed has now taken root and grown.

When Chris and John walked out of the Volvo headquarters building, their faces were full of frustration.

Chris was furious and threw the document bag in his hand on the car: "This is too much. How can they treat us like this?"

Hearing Chris's complaint, John got into the car expressionlessly.

Now he just wants to have a good sleep, and then quickly report the situation here to Ford headquarters.

The failure to acquire the Volvo Group's car companies was something that no one had expected.

They have been in a stalemate with Volvo for a whole year. Over the course of the whole year, Ford has negotiated all aspects, leaving only a price and specific arrangements for the workers' union.

This was originally just a small matter. Even if one of Chris and John rushed to Volvo headquarters on the day they got off the plane, they could safely negotiate the matter.

Unfortunately, Chris was addicted to the gentle land, and John also relaxed his vigilance.

If the duck you got is gone, someone will always be found to take the blame.
