Chapter 201 Secret Acquisition

After hearing this, Zhou Fei immediately became interested, and quickly looked at Jiang Yang and asked, "Tell me carefully, what kind of company is this?"

"Actually, the company I'm talking about was founded by my mentor Muller at the Technical University of Munich. It is also related to automobiles. It was originally an enterprise similar to an outsourcing company, helping other companies undertake some automobile-related experimental work. It is very similar to some university professors in our country."

Zhou Fei nodded silently. Many engineering college teachers in China do have their own companies, and some even have more than one. The graduate students under him have become their cheap labor. The projects are all related to the company's business.

This is also one of the reasons why many tutors are unwilling to let graduate students go. These graduate students must have a higher professional level than ordinary staff, but their salaries are very cheap. When paying wages, if you meet someone with a little heart, you won't see a dime.

"But later, the teacher was not satisfied with these outsourcing work, so he wanted to switch to car production. He also designed several cars with his brothers and sisters, and even the workshop was ready. However, because these models are not available in the market, Popularity, the company's operations have become difficult to maintain, a few days ago I overheard my mentor talking about it, it seems that the company is going to be shut down."

Jiang Yang continued.

It turned out to be another typical failure in actual combat!
Many professors may be good at doing theoretical research, but once they enter the field of actual combat, they are likely to be ridiculous. For example, Zhou Fei thinks that the most typical one is Keynes, the master of economics in his previous life. Keynes's status in the field of economic theory is Equivalent to Einstein's status in physics, but Keynes's two investment experiences ended in failure.

In the end, even Keynes himself admitted, "I can calculate the laws of economics, but this has little to do with whether I make money or not."

It can be seen that Jiang Yang's mentor also has a similar experience with Keynes.

"Where is that company, can you take me to see it?"

Zhou Fei asked curiously.

"Of course, the company is in a park in Munich. If you drive, you can get there in about 10 to [-] minutes. Let's eat first and take a break after lunch. I'll take you to have a look." Jiang Yang nodded.

I had lunch at a local specialty restaurant in Munich, and they were all typical German dishes, such as sausages, pork knuckles, and German dark beer, which was lower than Zhou Fei and the others who ate it for the first time. , the taste is okay, but the taste is a bit heavy, which is a bit similar to the domestic Northeast cuisine.

"Let's take a rest for a while, and then around two o'clock, let's go to a place and visit a local company." After eating, Zhou Fei looked at Zhang Xiang and Li Jianneng and said.

The two didn't ask any more questions, but just nodded at the same time. Zhou Fei's visit to Munich this time should be related to this matter.

"Da Yang, can you ask your mentor to see if you can check the company's asset statement this time. I want to evaluate how much this company is worth." After returning to the bedroom, Zhou Fei said to Jiang Yang.

"It should be no problem. These documents and materials are all placed in a cabinet. Let me say hello to the instructor first. Brother Fei, please rest first." Jiang Yang nodded with a smile.

Due to getting up early in the morning, coupled with the exhaustion of the journey, Zhou Fei fell asleep not long after lying on the bed.

At about two o'clock, the group rented a car and drove towards the company under the guidance of Jiang Yang.

"Brother Fei, I have already greeted my supervisor, all the company's materials, including the asset statement you mentioned, can be browsed at will."

After setting off on the road, Jiang Yang, who was sitting in the co-pilot, said to Zhou Fei.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work." Zhou Fei replied with a smile while driving.

The car I rented was the third-generation Trailblazer that was about to be introduced into China. Generally speaking, the driving experience was not bad, better than the Mercedes-Benz QQ, but definitely not as good as the Golf sedan.

There is no speed limit on German roads. Zhou Fei probably tried it. The limit speed of the 2.0L version of the Pioneer car is about 180 kilometers per hour, while the golf with the same displacement has a maximum speed of 200 kilometers per hour. , This gap is reflected in the powertrain represented by the engine.

In addition, as in China, all vehicles in Germany are also left-hand drive vehicles, so Zhou Fei did not feel any discomfort when driving.

In fact, currently only the Commonwealth of Nations still maintains the tradition of right-hand drive vehicles in the world. In addition, in Asia, island countries, Hong Kong and Macau also mainly use right-hand drive vehicles.

"Mr. Zhou, may I ask the purpose of visiting this company?" Li Jianneng, who was sitting in the back row, asked.

If it's just an ordinary visit, what is the purpose of checking the other party's asset statement?
"I plan to secretly acquire a company in Europe. This time, I just want to check the potential targets." Zhou Fei replied immediately without hiding anything.

Acquiring a company?

And still overseas?
"Didn't we just acquire Wei Peng Electronics, why do we want to acquire it again?" Li Jianneng asked puzzled.

If it is just overseas expansion, there is absolutely no need to rely on the acquisition company to carry out it, and Mercedes-Benz has just reached a strategic cooperation with Fotong Motors. Isn't there a conflict between the two?
Zhou Fei smiled mysteriously, "This acquisition is different from Wei Peng Electronics, but it is also part of the company's development plan. It is a bit troublesome to explain now, but you will understand later."

Zhou Fei didn't want to say more, so Li Jianneng didn't ask any more questions, but he finally understood why Zhou Fei wanted to bring him to this auto show, it was all planned long ago!

Ten minutes later, Zhou Fei and others appeared at the door of this company.

"Muller Automobile Industry Co., Ltd... the name is quite casual." Zhou Fei stood at the door and could roughly understand the German on it.

"Let's go, I'll take you in for a visit." Jiang Yang shook the key in his hand and said.

Later, under the leadership of Jiang Yang, a group of people visited the company's office area and production workshop successively. The scale of the workshop is not large, that is, it can produce [-] complete vehicles per year, but the equipment inside is quite complete. ,Small but complete.

"Take us to look at the company's asset statement." Zhou Fei said to Jiang Yang after visiting these.

"Okay, you guys wait here, I'll get it right away." After speaking, Jiang Yang ran towards one of the rooms.

Soon, Jiang Yang came over with a large stack of documents in his hands.

"All the important documents are here, including the asset statement you mentioned, Brother Fei, you can take whatever you want to see."

Jiang Yang put these documents on the table and said to everyone with a smile.
