"Cosworth?" Comrade Lao Wei looked at Lin Zheng in surprise. I wonder why this guy is related to Cosworth again?

Of course, Cosworth knew that the world's top engine suppliers were the same as the world's top engine suppliers. Although they were a little down and out of F1, they were still a F1. For automobile manufacturers like Great Wall that are not qualified to revolve in low-level domestic regular events, Cosworth's height is enough to make Comrade Lao Wei look up to it - basically the same feeling as the domestic private universities looking up to Stanford, Harvard, MIT and other existences a few years later.

He didn't understand no matter what, why did Lianchuang Technology have something to do with such a noble existence?

Lin Zheng: "Another shareholder of Minardi team, the former team owner, Mr. Paul Stoddart, accidentally learned about Cosworth's parent company: Vicks Group is selling three auto-related companies, including Bentley, Rolls-Royce and Cosworth. Of course, Rolls-Royce and Bentley dare not think about it, but if Minardi wants to improve his performance, it is good to have his own team..."

Listening to Lin Zheng's words, Comrade Lao Wei was completely speechless.

The bastard Lin Zheng doesn't sound like an explanation, but it's more like a show-off. However, it's true that this is a show-off. But the point is that Comrade Lao Wei understands a truth: a strong bragging is called awesome, and a lack of strength bragging is called a fool.

Obviously, Lin Zheng is really awesome.

"This... isn't it cheap?" Comrade Lao Wei asked timidly, his confidence was unconsciously weak.

"It's not cheap," Lin Zheng smiled bitterly. "The offer from Vickers Group is 200 million yuan."

Wang Fengying exclaimed: "200 million rmb? So expensive?"

200 million rmb? What are you thinking? Lin Zheng doesn’t know what to say: if 200 million rmb can win Cosworth, Lin Zheng will not hesitate at all.

Fortunately, Comrade Lao Wei's mind was still very clear. He smiled wryly and said to Wang Fengying, "How is it possible for 200 million rmb? Do you think it is our Great Wall? It is 200 million... Well, pounds, right?"

Lin Zheng nodded with a wry smile.

200 million pounds? Wang Fengying's mouth suddenly opened her mouth and felt that she was not feeling well. At this stage, the exchange rate of pounds and rmbs in China is about 1:136. 200 million pounds can be exchanged for about 2.72 billion to 2.73 billion rmbs. Lianchuang Technology actually needs to spend 2.7 billion to buy Cosworth?

"It's pound, but we can't afford this price," Lin Zheng said frankly: "Our goal is to push the price to 120 million pounds, but this kind of thing is really unsure until the end."

I heard that Lin Zheng was willing to spend about 1.6 billion rmb to acquire a world-class engine manufacturing and R&D company. Comrade Lao Wei's expression changed again. This is how people are. I used to know that Lin Zheng was the richest man in China, but I know that he is the richest man, so I don't have a very direct idea in my heart: I am also a billionaire, and I don't think I am worse than you, Lin Zheng.

Now, Comrade Lao Wei finally realized what the gap between him and Lin Zheng was. The gap was to acquire a foreign company. He could take out 1.6 billion rmb without hesitation, and after he spent hundreds of millions to acquire an automatic transmission manufacturing company, he was really convinced: This is really different from being rich. Ask yourself. Comrade Lao Wei felt that he could not do such a thing anyway.

"That's not old or young anymore," after a brief shock and incredulity, Comrade Lao Wei's eyes were so bright that he grabbed Lin Zheng's hand and said excitedly: "Mr. Lin means that after the acquisition is completed, Cosworth will help adjust your 4g63?"

"I have this idea." Lin Zheng nodded. This is nonsense. If you don't use such good resources, wouldn't that be stupid?

"That's good, that's good," Comrade Lao Wei was so excited that he didn't know where to put his hands. He had a lot of confidence in Shen & Yang Aerospace Tesla's 4g63 for the first time: "If Cosworth had the help, we would be more at ease."

If Shen & Yang Aerospace Tesla reverse Mitsubishi's sohc version 4g63 engine can get the help of Cosworth, then the performance of this engine exceeds that of Mitsubishi's original sohc version 4g63 is a foregone conclusion. This is not a problem that goes beyond a little, but a problem that goes beyond a big part!

What was somewhat beyond Lin Zheng's surprise was that he originally thought that Comrade Wei would be curious about the sale of Rolls-Royce and Bentley by Vicks Group, but he did not mention this matter from beginning to end, as if it had nothing to do with him. Although it was indeed irrelevant, as a practitioner in the automobile industry, he was not curious about such a big gossip at all. Lin Zheng really admired Comrade Wei's qi cultivation skills.

………………………………………

But life is always so fucked. Just when Lin Zheng was originally taking good care of himself during this period, reality told him: You are really thinking too much.

Ford wants to acquire Cosworth with himself.

After receiving the news, Lin Zheng was stunned for a while: What is going on? Why did Ford suddenly come in and fuck again? Damn Bill Ford, this bastard, is going to cheat himself when he gets the chance?

"We were put on a damn German," Paul Stoddat on the phone was also very depressed: "I just learned that Volkswagen had been hooking up with Ford."

You just told me about such a big thing now? What are you doing? Resisting the urge to beat Paul Stoddart, Lin Zheng gritted his teeth and asked, "What does it mean? Why did Ford hook up with Volkswagen? What's going on?"

"I just learned the news. It seems that Volkswagen is preparing to acquire Rolls-Royce from Vicks Group. When Vicks Group decided to package Rolls-Royce and Cosworth for sale together, Volkswagen established a cooperative relationship with Ford. The two companies jointly acquired Rolls-Royce and Cosworth. After the acquisition was completed, Volkswagen sold Cosworth to Ford. We were put on a damn German side, and I knew that the Germans were never reliable..."

Paul Stoddat cursed angrily, although Lin Zheng disagreed with Paul Stoddat's words. Is there anything more unreliable than Italians when it comes to being unreliable?

However, no matter how despised you, Lin Zheng could feel Paul Stodat's anger through the phone call of tens of thousands of kilometers. This Italian guy was disguised by a German teammate in World War II. He was obviously very angry: Damn this is a typical marriage of a woman and a second woman. He is a bastard who seriously violates business rules. What's ridiculous is that he was deceived!

"Since Volkswagen has signed a cooperation agreement with Ford first, according to business principles, is the agreement between us and Volkswagen invalid?" In fact, Lin Zheng was also very angry with Volkswagen's shameless behavior: I was actually used by the damn Germans?

Paul Stoddart: "Actually... it's not exactly like this..."

"Huh?" Paul Stoddat's words stunned Lin Zheng for a moment: "What does it mean?"

Since Volkswagen and Ford have reached an agreement first, the commercial contract signed by Volkswagen and Minardi team is naturally invalid. Why isn't this exactly?

Paul Stoddat hesitated: "If...if we can reach an agreement with Ford..."

Lin Zheng suddenly understood everything.

In addition to the R&D system, Cosworth has two production departments, namely the Cosworth civil engine production and manufacturing department and the Cosworth high-performance department. For the Minardi team, whether it is the civil engine production and manufacturing department or the high-performance department, it is a good thing to get either. If the Minardi team can reach an agreement with Ford Motor Company, the cost of acquiring Cosworth will be evenly distributed by Ford and Minardi teams, and things are not that bad.

But in fact, this is certainly impossible. People have spent so much effort to dig such a big pit for themselves just to find someone to spread the acquisition costs evenly? What a joke? Ford Motor has a net profit of more than $20 billion this year. Will they miss the acquisition costs of $200 million? Whether this pit was dug by Volkswagen or Ford, they must have a deeper plan.

What made Lin Zheng even more heartbroken is that for so long, has Paul Stoddat not noticed the trick? Given his sensitivity to capital, Lin Zheng prefers Paul Stoddat to have known this a long time ago. So the question is, since Paul Stoddat has known this a long time ago, why do you tell yourself now?

"Paul," Lin Zheng's tone became colder: "Tell me, what would happen if we reached an agreement with Ford Motor? What is the premise for reaching an agreement?"

Paul Stoddat thought he could withstand Lin Zheng's anger, but at this moment, he suddenly realized that he had been wrong. When Lin Zheng's anger was aroused, he suddenly realized that even though he was tens of thousands of kilometers of telephone lines, he was still very palpitations.

After swallowing his saliva hard, Paul Stoddat stammered: "As long as an agreement can be reached, Ford Motor can give up the acquisition of Cosworth, the premise is not enough...the premise is..."

"Say! What is the premise?" Lin Zheng's heart began to sink further and further.

"The premise is..." Paul Stoddat gritted his teeth: "The premise is that Ford Motor hopes that ICQ can acquire 5% of ICQ's shares when it is in the first round of ICQ." (To be continued, please search for Astronomy, the novel is better, updated and faster!
