Chapter 1711 (2/2)
It took him a long time to confirm with Davidson: ”Davidson, aren't you kidding me? Li Mu wants to buy my three brands? ””I'm not kidding you.” Davidson said: ”I was entrusted by Li Mu to help him with the connection. If you are interested, I can arrange a time for both of you to sit down and talk.”
Little Bill Ford couldn't help asking, ”Davidson, we're old friends. Can you tell me why Li Mu is interested in the traditional automobile industry?”
”I don't know...” Davidson said seriously: ”I also advised Li Mu that the automobile industry is not very good now, and compared with the Internet industry, this industry has no advantages, has a large amount of capital occupation, a long return cycle, and a higher business risk, but Li Mu doesn't seem to care.”
Said Davidson, adding: ”he should be interested in the automobile industry. I think it should be a personal hobby.”
”Personal hobbies...” Little Bill Ford couldn't help saying: ”if it's a personal hobby, isn't it good to buy Aston Martin? The price is not expensive, and the cars are all performance cars. ”
Davidson said with a smile, ”what? Do you mean I'm going to sell it? If I don't want to sell it, I'll tell Li Mu. ”
”No, no, No.” ”It's all negotiable,” said Little Bill Ford. ”Since Li Mu is interested, I can talk to him, or we can send a person to meet each other first to see the wishes of both sides. In principle, as long as the price is right, all Ford's assets can be sold.”
Davidson said, ”in that case, I'll pass on your original words to Li Mu. You can communicate first and then see how to arrange next.”
”Good!” Little Bill Ford said with a smile, ”please help me to convey it.”
Hung up the phone, little Bill Ford immediately excited a punch, took off his mouth and shouted: ”YES!”
Then he immediately pressed the hands-free and quick call on the desk and said, ”Lauren, let the members of the board of directors in the group come to my office immediately.”
A few minutes later, members of the Ford group's board of directors came to Little Bill Ford's office.
Although Ford Motor Group is a listed company, the Ford family still holds more than 70% of the shares through various channels. Strictly speaking, this is a family business. Therefore, no matter who the previous CEOs are, they are only professional managers employed by the Ford family. In real major events, they have no independent decision-making power at all.
Because of this, the people who came to Little Bill Ford's office were basically all members of the Ford family, most of them were Ford, and a few were relatives, cousins or sons in law of the Ford family.
Little Bill Ford's office area is more than 200 square meters, even if more than a dozen people come in one after another, it is not crowded at all.
After confirming that all the members of the board of directors of the company were present today, Bill Ford, Jr., opened his mouth and said, ”let's come here to have a message to announce.”
Speaking of this, Little Bill Ford gave a little pause and went straight to the main topic without much delay: ”Li Mu, the founder and chairman of Muye technology, expressed a purchase intention to me through Davidson of Goldberg family. He was interested in the three brands of Volvo, Jaguar and Lu Hu under our group and intended to pack and buy.”
As soon as the words came out, everyone was dumbfounded.
They were surprised for the same reason as little Bill Ford, so people speculated and even suspected that it was a prank in itself.
However, Little Bill Ford interrupted their discussion and said, ”I still know Davidson better. He will not be born out of nothing. As for Li Mu, this man has so many industries that he can't have time to make any mischief with us. In terms of value, his time is more valuable than ours.”
Immediately someone said, ”pastor Li has a lot of money. It's better to take advantage of this opportunity to make a good stroke on him.”
Little Bill Ford asked, ”do you think you are smarter than Li Mu? Blackmail him? If he can be blackmailed by you at will, he can't have his fortune today. I've only heard that Li Mu knocks on others. I haven't heard that someone can knock on him. If you don't believe me, just look at Google. ”
The Ford family members who just wanted to take the opportunity to knock Li Mu's pen on their faces were soon wilting.
Little Bill Ford is right. Li Mu's company can't be as good as it is today if anyone can make a big mistake.
On the contrary, Li Mu is just an individual. He is extremely accurate in calculating other people's calculations. If he wants to beat him, the result must be his own misfortune.
At this time, Little Bill Ford said again, ”I'm not calling you here to ask for your opinions, but to tell you about this matter. At the same time, I'm telling you my attitude. As long as the price given by Li Mu is appropriate, we'll get rid of these three brands immediately!”
