Rebirth of the World’s Richest Man

Chapter 2911 Attitude

The day after Mou Qizhong returned to the capital, he made a high-profile announcement about cooperating with the Huaqing Holding Group Investment Company to establish a popcorn cinema chain. He wanted to be a big boss behind the scenes in the film and television entertainment industry and to be a cinema chain. .

Mou Qizhong always acted in such a high-profile manner. Jiang Xiaobai saw it on the news at home in the evening and just smiled. He had long been used to Mou Qizhong's style of doing things.

Zhao Xinyi was watching TV with Jiang Xiaobai and saw the news on the TV. She looked at Jiang Xiaobai with some confusion and asked, "Are you still cooperating with Mou Qizhong?"

She still remembered that when Jiang Xiaobai withdrew his capital from Huade Satellite Company, although he did not directly say that he would not cooperate in the future, his meaning was made very clear.

 I didn’t expect that we would be collaborating again now.

"Well, when I went to the capital last time, Mou Qizhong mentioned it. I thought the theater chain was good, so I agreed." Jiang Xiaobai said with a smile.

"The project is good, but the key is whether the person is reliable?" Zhao Xinyi asked. When she met Mou Qizhong, she was also in the capital. He was still in college at that time, and Mou Qizhong had a good relationship with Jiang Xiaobai.

She also went with her to meet Mou Qizhong. What can I say about Mou Qizhong? He gave people the impression of being erratic in his work. At that time, he wanted to take Jiang Xiaobai with him to purchase goods from the magic city and resell clocks. Jiang Xiaobai did not agree. Later, Mou Qizhong I went in because of this.

At that time, Zhao Xinyi was afraid for a long time after seeing her. Fortunately, Jiang Xiaobai didn't agree at the time, otherwise we still don't know what would have happened.

Moreover, Mou Qizhong's style of doing things is too out-of-the-box, and he just comes up with his ideas. As for losing some money, Zhao Xinyi doesn't care. The key is that he is afraid that Mou Qizhong will implicate Jiang Xiaobai.

The two have been married for so many years. Of course Jiang Xiaobai knew what Zhao Xinyi was thinking and comforted Zhao Xinyi softly.

 In fact, at Jiang Xiaobai's level, he has long since escaped the point where he may be implicated because of investments in one or two projects. He really thinks that Huaqing Holding Group, the first private enterprise in China, has become a Fortune 500 company.

 There is a lot of influence behind this, and it will not fall down casually.

 In addition, Huaqing Holding Group has many tentacles. It is a company with more than 100,000 employees. Although it is a private enterprise, it represents something different behind it.

In addition, Huaqing Holding Group also has a large number of legal affairs. This is not because Jiang Xiaobai has a lot of money and has nothing to do, raising a lot of waste, but to avoid some risks.

Jiang Xiaobai was chatting with Zhao Xinyi. The phone at home rang. Jiang Xiaobai went over to answer it. It was Zhang Weiyi's call from abroad.

"Dr. Jiang, you shouldn't be sleeping now, right?" Zhang Weiyi just said politely to Jiang Xiaobai. There was a time difference between the two parties. It was morning over there at this time for Zhang Weiyi.

Jiang Xiaobai said angrily: "You woke me up even when I was sleeping. What's the use of doing this? Tell me, what's the result of the investigation?"

"BMW is not very willing to sell the Mini brand and technology, but Ford is simple. Their intention is that as long as the price is in place, the brand and technology of the Land Rover car series cannot be transferred to us. .    As for Phoenix Investment Group's attitude, it is the best. We are very happy to know that we want to fully acquire Luofu Automobile. If there are no other surprises in the price, getting the lowest price is not a problem..."

Zhang Weiyi led a team on a business trip this time, not to accomplish anything, but to test the attitudes of these three companies.

After all, the Luofu Automobile after the split is now in the hands of three companies. Phoenix Investment Group, although it is a nominal shareholder of Luofu Automobile, is only in name. In fact, it only owns the shares of Luofu Automobile after the BMW split. .

“What does BMW mean? Are they unwilling to sell Mini? Or are they unwilling to sell it no matter how much it costs?” Jiang Xiaobai asked directly.

“They have already developed a mini car using the Mini brand and technology, and the sales are very good. I don’t think they are very willing to sell it.” Zhang Weiyi’s voice came from the phone.

Jiang Xiaobai was silent for a while. In fact, he also knew that there was a high probability that BMW would not sell Mini when it went public. Luofu Automobile Company was torn apart by BMW. BMW actually spent a lot of effort on Luofu Automobile.

 But it ended in failure. Even for this Luofu Motors, even the launch of the X5 was delayed a lot.

 Crover is just like Adou who can't afford it. After cooperating with Honda, it seems that it is crazy. Either this car is imitating Honda's car or that car is imitating Honda's. For example, the Luofu 200 is a brand new economical car developed based on the Honda Ballade. It can even be said that it is not an imitation, but a direct OEM. Important components such as the engine and gearbox are directly taken from the Honda Civic.

Since then, Rover has lost its own thing, but Rover 800 is developed based on Honda Mileage, and Rover 600 is an imitation of Honda Accord.

 Handan is a toddler. After Luofu cooperated with Honda, it not only failed to learn from Honda’s experience in cost control and car quality, but also lost its innovation and R&D capabilities.

As for things like brand value, it goes without saying. It dropped again and again. At its peak, it was a brand comparable to Rolls-Royce and the queen's car. But later on, it cooperated with Honda. , it has directly become a poor people's car. It can be seen everywhere on the streets, not to mention that the brand value has been greatly reduced.

 The key is that the market doesn’t buy it yet, whether it’s the Rover 200, Rover 600, 800 or other models, this is true for every one of them.

 After BMW acquired it, it spent a lot of energy to cultivate Luofu Automobile. However, Luofu Automobile failed to live up to expectations. In the end, BMW not only failed to make any money from Luofu Automobile.

Instead, it lost US$3 billion in six years, with an average loss of US$500 million a year. BMW was also forced by Rover to have no choice, so it had no choice but to break it up, package it and sell it for a symbolic one pound. The price was returned to Phoenix Investment Group.

They also agreed to provide Luofu Auto with a certain amount of loans without interest, but they just didn’t want Luofu Auto. It was like a hot potato. In the end, BMW had no choice but to split it up and sell it, reluctantly recouping part of its losses.

 But that’s it. BMW doesn’t even sell the Mini brand. It’s conceivable that BMW attaches great importance to Mini.
