King of Industry

  Chapter 541 This opportunity must be won

   "Actually, at this point, Chairman Mao, you should probably have guessed it."

   "My plan of 'a small fish swallows a big fish' is actually our alliance with several large car companies in the country, coupled with the support of the state, to use collective strength to acquire 'Skoda'."

   "Ah..." Mao Zhichun was stunned by Zhao Guoyang's words, his mouth opened wide.

  Zhao Guoyang continued to explain unhurriedly: "For example, although our Songqi Group has achieved good economic returns in recent years, it should not be comparable to the FAW Group in terms of market value and available funds?"

   Mao Zhichun let out an "uh" and scratched his head in embarrassment.

  Zhao Guoyang said nonchalantly: "Since this is the case, why don't we unite with FAW Group, or even other domestic auto companies, to complete this project together?"

   "Songqi Group and FAW Group are both under the administration of the Ministry of Machinery and Electronics Industry and the Ministry of Finance's Inherent Assets Administration, and there are many articles that can be done."

   "You mean, we Songqi Group and FAW Group have reached out to the two major ministries for money? Is this feasible?" Mao Zhichun said in a daze.

  Zhao Guoyang slowly shook his head and said, "Chairman Mao, it's not just these two departments..."

  Hearing these words, Mao Zhichun had a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.

Zhao Guoyang raised his hand and pointed to the top: "Chairman Mao, I remember that when our Songqi Group was established, the SJ City Government contributed most of the capital, right? Similarly, the FAW Group, and the Spring City Government also There are also a lot of shares."

   "Indeed! What does brother Guoyang mean?" Mao Zhichun became more and more confused as he listened.

   Zhao Guoyang waved his hand and said: "Chairman Mao, this matter is easy to handle. While we are uniting with domestic auto companies such as FAW Group, we can also get sponsorship from local governments."

   "Even if there is no direct sponsorship, at least the bank loan should not be too difficult. Can it be approved for us?"

   Zhao Guoyang said excitedly: "With these sponsorships and bank loans, I want to mention the acquisition of 'Skoda' again. It really is not 'flowers in the mirror, moon in the water'!"

  At this moment, Mao Zhichun was completely stunned by the blueprint drawn by Zhao Guoyang.

  He knew that Researcher Zhao had a strange idea, but he didn't expect that the other party would come up with such a "wonderful" idea this time.

  Think about the domestic auto giants such as Songqi Group, FAW Group, and Second Automobile Group. They have always been dissatisfied with each other, and they don’t listen to the above. It is too difficult to unite.

  However, if Zhao Guoyang's idea is completely unfeasible, Mao Zhichun will not be so against his will.

  In short, after hearing what Researcher Zhao said, Mao Zhichun was really moved.

  After hesitant for a long time, Mao Zhichun finally choked out a sentence: "Brother Guoyang, have you mentioned this matter to anyone else?"

  Zhao Guoyang said with a "huh": "No, I just thought of this."

  He glanced at Mao Zhichun with a smile and said: "Chairman Mao, you don't think my idea is 'wishful thinking'?"

  Mao Zhichun coughed loudly a few times, waved his hands again and again and said, "No, brother Guoyang, you misunderstood..."

   Picked up the chopsticks again and stopped in mid-air for a while, then Chairman Mao continued to speak.

   "Brother Guoyang, what you just said is really important. I really can't make up my mind for a while!"

   Zhao Guoyang had foreseen Mao Zhichun's hesitation early on.

  Indeed, Mao Zhichun was very difficult, and Zhao Guoyang knew this very well.

   Songqi Group is now in a state of rapid development. As long as the "New Santana" is launched according to the original plan, there will be at least three to five years of glory in the future.

  Under such circumstances, there is really no need for Songqi Group to take the risk of forcibly acquiring the "Skoda Automobile Company".

  More importantly, if Zhao Guoyang's method of "small fish swallowing big fish" is followed, Songqi Group is just one of many "little fish", and it is really nothing to be called prominent.

   In case the money I put out is not as good as the FAW Group, I will have no right to speak, and instead become a foil for others.

   Mao Zhichun naturally had to think carefully about such a thankless task before making a decision.

  Now that the matter has been discussed, Zhao Guoyang is not in a hurry at this time.

  He knows Mao Zhichun quite well, and he also knows that although Chairman Mao looks kind and easy-going, he is like a "Maitreya Buddha".

   But in fact, this boss still has some ambitions deep in his heart.

  If it weren’t for this, he wouldn’t have been able to win the title of the sales champion of the same industry in China in one fell swoop in the short period of time since the establishment of Songqi Group.

   Pushed the teacup, Zhao Guoyang added inadvertently: "Chairman Mao, in fact, you don't have to be too embarrassed."

  Seeing Mao Zhichun raised his head in confusion, Zhao Guoyang shrugged and said, "What I said just now is actually based on the fact that 'Skoda Auto' really wants to sell its shares."

   "If they don't have this plan at all; or if they have already negotiated with the German Volkswagen Group, then we are doing 'useless work' right now..."

   Zhao Guoyang said this naturally in reverse, just to let Chairman Mao know the urgency of this matter.

   Indeed, second-tier giants of international car companies like "Skoda" rarely sell them as a package.

  This time, if Huaxia doesn't seize the opportunity. Next time, I don't know if it will be the Year of the Monkey.

   Zhao Guoyang's insinuations obviously worked.

  After he finished speaking, Mao Zhichun clenched his fist and said, "Brother Guoyang, after thinking about it, I still can't miss this opportunity."

  The boss raised his head, looked at Zhao Guoyang firmly, and said word by word: "I'll call Chairman Wu of the FAW Group and discuss this issue with him!"

   "It doesn't matter whether our Songqi Group gets the right to speak in the end, or their FAW Group is the master. In short, this matter is an opportunity. Since we have encountered it, we must fight for it!"

  Listening to Mao Zhichun's decisive words, Zhao Guoyang nodded silently.

  He could tell that Chairman Mao had really made up his mind. Even the fight for the right to speak has been placed in the second place for the time being.

  Chairman Mao did what he said, and immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number.

   Not long after, the call was connected, and Wu Jianlong's characteristic loud voice came over quickly.

   Regarding Zhao Guoyang, Mao Zhichun had no taboos at all, and directly communicated with Wu Jianlong about this matter.

   "Old Wu, I have a very urgent and very important business. I need to communicate with you!" Mao Zhichun's first sentence made Wu Jianlong a little confused.

   "Old Mao, what do you mean by that?"

  Wu Jianlong said with a blank face, "You Songqi Group and our FAW are competitors. Are you talking about business with me? It's funny!"

   Facing Wu Jianlong's question, Mao Zhichun was not surprised at all.

  He waved his hand and said: "Old Wu, listen carefully to what I have to say. This matter is likely to be related to the development of our two companies in the next few years, or even ten years..."

   "Hey, the more you talk, the more mysterious it is... OK, let me listen carefully?" Wu Jianlong said.

   "This is the situation!"

  Mao Zhichun raised his head and glanced at Zhao Guoyang, who was opposite him, and continued to explain, "Just now, I had a meal with Researcher Zhao. During the dinner, he talked about an important merger plan."

  "A merger plan?" Wu Jianlong on the other end of the phone was startled when he heard this.

   Immediately, the boss quickly reacted, and immediately said in a low voice: "Old Mao, you Songqi Group can do it. It just acquired the Songjiang Automobile Factory last year. Who are you planning to call attention now?"

"Uh, by the way, whose idea are you planning? It doesn't seem to have anything to do with our FAW Group, right? You tell me about this, do you want me to envy you, or want to see me jumping in anger?" Wu Jianlong said half-heartedly. Said half jokingly.

  Because the box was very quiet, Zhao Guoyang at the side heard Chairman Wu's words clearly.

  After listening to it, he couldn't help but slander: In his own impression, Chairman Wu is quite calm, but who knows that in front of acquaintances, this is a talkative...

   Mao Zhichun was clearly prepared for Chairman Wu's rich imagination.

  He also ignored the other party, but repeated what Zhao Guoyang said to him just now to Wu Jianlong.

  Of course, Mao Zhichun only talked about Zhao Guoyang's general idea of ​​"the small fish swallows the big fish". As for seeking help from the two major ministries, local governments, and bank loans, he did not elaborate.

  After the boss finished speaking, Wu Jianlong on the other end of the phone suddenly lost his voice.

   After waiting for a long time, Mao Zhichun hadn't received a reply to the purchase, so he was a little anxious at that time.

  He hummed and said, "Old Wu, have you thought about it? If you have no interest in this matter, I will contact Zhang Changbei from the Second Automobile Company?"

  Before Mao Zhichun finished speaking, the phone buzzed: "Don't, don't, Lao Mao, don't worry...I'm just thinking about it?"

   "Then give me an answer quickly, I still have a lot of calls to make, and I don't have time to grind my teeth with you!" Mao Zhichun said impatiently.

   Zhao Guoyang, who was sitting opposite Mao Zhichun, also nodded his head and said: "Yes, Chairman Mao, I think that our Jinling Automobile Group Company in Jiangnan Province is also a good partner..."

   Although Zhao Guoyang's voice was not loud, it was still clearly transmitted to Mao Zhichun's phone.

  Hearing it was his voice, Wu Jianlong became anxious: "Old Mao, Researcher Zhao is here too? Why didn't you say it earlier? Hurry up, I want to have a good chat with him and ask him for advice!"

   "Damn, old Wu, do you think I'm an operator? When you hear Researcher Zhao's name, you throw me away?" Although Chairman Mao complained endlessly, he still handed the phone to Zhao Guoyang who was on the opposite side.
