Great Power Reclamation

Sophia nodded: "Of course, what do you want to do with him?"

Owen nodded: "I came here this time to discuss cooperation with Warrior Engine Group, but it has not been going smoothly. I want to contact Mr. Li to see what he means?"

Sophia patted his shoulder and said, "I'll take care of it. No need to thank me. Just come and eat more often."

Owen was suddenly moved. This girl was not only simple-minded, but also kind-hearted. A girl like this was worth loving even if she was married.

Sophia acted decisively and picked up her phone to call Owen right in front of him.

Li Lindong was very considerate and agreed to meet Owen at dinner time.

Owen was so excited that he couldn't eat again. He had to prepare. The other party was the president of Warrior Automobile Group. I heard that he was stationed in the island country recently. He couldn't miss the opportunity to meet him today.

Gifts are a must, as a businessman, this is the most basic quality.

There are two types of gifts: one is not valuable but has commemorative significance; the other looks insignificant but is worth far more than most people can afford.

The former is naturally given to people with official status, and the second is given to business partners. They are all rich, but if the gift is not of good taste, they will look down on them.

As the CEO of Bentley, Owen would naturally carry some gifts with him, such as watches. It is impossible for him to only give this one to Sofia.

Li Lindong arrived for dinner on time. He didn't know about Owen's contact with Wang Lina and Mei Ting, but he knew that he came to talk about things related to cars.

He is a kind and polite person, and he treats everyone as a friend. This is also the reason why Ye Yuze cultivated Wang Lina.

Li Lindong has no problem starting a business, and even less problem running a factory, but he gets easily confused once he deals with customers.

It’s not that he made any mistakes, but he is simple-minded, a typical engineering guy, and can’t handle the intrigues in the business world.

According to Wang Lina, "Li Lindong's IQ is not online except for technology."

  When they met and shook hands, Li Lindong was a man who didn't beat around the bush and asked directly:

"Is there anything I can do to help you? If so, you're welcome."

Hearing Li Lindong say this, Owen was overjoyed and directly took out a watch from his handbag, which was naturally a Burberry watch.

He handed it to Li Lindong and said, "Mr. Li, this is a specialty from the UK. It's a token of my respect."

Li Lindong was naturally not stupid enough to really think that this watch had no value, but he did not refuse because he had to give Sophia face.

The reason why Sophia Restaurant was so lively was that it was not because the customers suddenly came here after hearing the news, but also because the military settlers respected the old mayor and came to show their support.

Especially the older generation of military settlers, who wouldn't come? It was driven by them, plus the restaurant's delicious food, that made the place lively all of a sudden.

Seeing Li Lindong accept the watch, Owen became more confident. He didn't know the internal conditions of the soldier's car.

After all, in any car company, only the automobile assembly plant is the most powerful organization, because all the parts are centered around the finished car.

Although Warrior Engine is a separate group, he really doesn't believe that it can be bigger than the Automobile Group.

But when he stated his purpose, Li Lindong grinned.

"Mr. Owen, you may not understand the structure of the Warrior Group. Take Wang Lina for example. She can control all the businesses of the Warrior Automobile Group." "How could this be?" Owen thought Li Lindong was shirking responsibility and looked disapproving.

Li Lindong was honest, so he told the truth and spread his hands.

"I can find someone to help you with research and development, but you can only negotiate with them about the terms of the transaction. I have no way to help you."

Li Lindong was too honest to be a businessman, and looked helpless.

  Owen understood now. It seemed that there was really no way around it. What should he do?

Sophia, on the other hand, looked very excited and said with great interest:

"How about I discuss this with Sister Mei Ting? I want to help Owen."

Sophia naturally knew these two strong women. Not to mention them, she was also familiar with Ayijiang and had her contact information saved in her mobile phone.

Sophia was a little afraid of Wang Lina. That woman had too strong aura and she didn't dare to approach her.

Li Lindong nodded: "If we want to solve the problem, we can only find them, but to be honest, Owen's conditions are a bit unsuitable."

Puwen looked up and asked in confusion: "Why is it inappropriate? I came here with sincerity."

Li Lindong shook his head helplessly. He decided to remind the British guy of his excessive self-confidence.

"First of all, your Bentley company cannot be compared with the Warrior Group. Even your parent company Volkswagen cannot be compared with the Warrior Group in terms of its current size. Excuse me, what do you have to negotiate cooperation with the Warrior Group?"

  Owen's face flushed red. Li Lindong looked humble, but why was his words so sharp?

"Mr. Li, our Bentley Motors has a history of hundreds of years. This brand is a golden signboard. Even if Volkswagen acquires us, we will exist as an independent brand without any change."

Li Lindong smiled and said, "Any brand is maintained by its own quality. May I ask, what is it about Bentley that makes it the best in the world?"

Owen was silent. He really couldn't say anything.

Li Lindong continued, "The brand effect can certainly last for a long time, but now Bentley only relies on the shell to win. How long do you think you can maintain this?"

This statement was very insightful and made Irving look embarrassed. Although it was unpleasant to hear, it was the truth.

But even so, he still wanted to fight for it.

"Mr. Li, a brand represents credibility, especially for top luxury cars like ours, which have become a symbol of status. Do you think that a car company that can stand for hundreds of years just by relying on a brand is worthless?"

Li Lindong shook his head: "Don't forget that you have been acquired by Volkswagen. They probably considered this and retained the trademark. If it were the Warrior Group's style of doing things, the Bentley brand would have ceased to exist long ago."

"Your so-called top-of-the-line luxury car was bought by someone else, which means that it is on the verge of bankruptcy. I really don't know what you are so proud of."

Li Lindong is not a sharp-tongued person. He just speaks the truth and doesn't beat around the bush. This time, Sophia finally understood.

It turned out that this Owen was nothing but a person who came to take advantage of the military reclamation city. As for what advantage he was taking, she still didn't understand.

"Owen, what on earth do you want to do? You can't take advantage of my trust in you and do something that people don't like."

She tensed up and began to lose control of her emotions. (End of this chapter)
