Through the wealth life

Chapter 183
On the morning of April 4th, accompanied by Du Yuemei, Li Guangyu came to the headquarters of Rolls-Royce, where he signed the contract today.

Rolls-Royce President Klein Rolls led the senior management of the company to welcome the arrival of Li Guangyu and his party outside the headquarters building.

The development of the Rolls-Royce Group is not very good now, especially the Bentley brand. Since it is basically a copied Rolls-Royce model, the sales are not satisfactory, and the current economy of the group is not ideal.Klein Rouss is still very happy to be able to sell Bentley for a high price of 2.5 million U.S. dollars this time.

When I took over the Bentley brand at that time, it was only because the Bentley company had a debt of more than 10 pounds.Although the pounds in the past few years are very valuable, Klein Laws is already very satisfied with the sale of 40 million U.S. dollars in just over 2.5 years.

After listening to Li Xuemei's introduction, Li Guangyu said with a smile: "Mr. Laws, thank you Chen Quan for allowing us to enter the automobile industry."

"Mr. Li, you are welcome, please." Klein Laws said.

Li Guangyu understood why Rolls-Royce was willing to sell Bentley. One was that the current development of the group was really not satisfactory, and the other was that the president had a lot to do with it.

Li Guangyu thinks that it is very likely that this is the founder of Rolls-Royce. Seeing that the current development is not satisfactory, he is going to sell Bentley and invest all the money in the research and development of Rolls-Royce. Anyway, Bentley For them, they picked it up, and they are naturally willing to sell it at a high price to develop Rolls-Royce.

After coming to the meeting room, Li Guangyu asked the lawyer who followed him to carefully review the contract. After confirming that there was no problem, Li Guangyu and Klein both signed their names on the contract.

At the same time, Li Guangyu also wrote a HSBC check for US$2.5 million to Rolls-Royce.So far, Li Guangyu has completely controlled 100% of the shares of Bentley Motors.

In the afternoon, Li Guangyu and his team came to the production site of Bentley Motors, which is also located in the same place as Rolls-Royce, both located in Crewe, England.

In the conference room of Bentley Motors, Li Guangyu held a meeting of the middle and high level of Bentley Motors.

Li Guangyu said: "From now on, our Li Group has wholly owned Bentley Motors. We will build our own car group based on Bentley Motors. Ms. Du Yuemei has also communicated with you many times. We will not make too many adjustments in our positions, and Ms. Zhang Ziyu will announce the appointment of personnel for the group now."

Zhang Ziyu got up and said: "We have newly established the Bentley Group, and Bentley Motors will be the first brand under our automobile group. Ms. Du Yuemei will serve as the chairman of the board of directors and the chief executive officer of the group."

Du Yuemei stood up and said, "Everyone has many years of experience in the automotive industry, and I hope you will cooperate with us in the group's affairs in the future."

After Du Yuemei sat down, Zhang Ziyu said: "Mr. Jessley Johnson, the general manager of Bentley Motors, is the vice president of the board of directors of the group."

Jessley Johnson stood up and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Li, I will cooperate with President Du's work and develop our Bentley Group."

"Huang Qiwei, the financial manager of the British branch of Jiayi Group, is the director and financial director of the board of directors of the group." Zhang Ziyu said.

Huang Qiwei has been very excited since yesterday. He did not expect that after Li Sheng met him yesterday, he would ask if he would like to work as the financial director of the automobile group.He was stunned by the sudden good news, and it took him a while to react, and immediately expressed his willingness to come here to work.

He knew very well that the reason why Li Guangyu called him here was that he didn't trust the British people so much, so he asked him to come over to take care of the group's finances.

Huang Qiwei stood up and said, "Thank you Li Sheng for your trust. I will definitely do a good job in the financial work of the group."

Zhang Ziyu then announced that Wesley Bieber will be the director of the human resources department of the board of directors of the group, and Zhang Minqi will be the manager of the administration department of the board of directors.

After announcing the appointment of the group, Li Guangyu said: "Today, our Bentley company still uses the engine of Rolls-Royce, and we do not have a usable engine technology. In this regard, we must change, We need to combine acquisitions and R&D to create our own engines, so that we will not be controlled by others."

Jessley Johnson said: "Mr. Li, we at Bentley also intend to establish our own power department immediately, but there is still a lack of research and development funds."

Jessley Johnson has considered this issue since Rolls-Royce wanted to sell Bentley. It was good that Rolls-Royce belonged to the same group before. Now that it is not owned by Rolls-Royce, its own group must have its own Engine, otherwise it will have a big impact on Bentley.

Li Guangyu had already planned this. Li Guangyu said: "I will inject [-] million US dollars into the Bentley Group for early development. At the same time, we also intend to acquire Jaguar. They have perfect engine technology and can fully meet our Bentley's needs. need."

The executives are also very aware of Jaguar's situation. As a British luxury brand, Jaguar's market value is much higher than that of Bentley.The main reason is that Jaguar has perfect engine technology. The market value of Jaguar is about [-] million US dollars. Hearing that Li Guangyu is still thinking of acquiring Jaguar, he also feels that Li Guangyu has a lot of money.

Jessley Johnson said happily: "It would be great if Bentley Group could acquire Jaguar Motor Company, and our development would not be restricted by other companies."

After the meeting, Li Guangyu and others, accompanied by Jessley Johnson, visited Bentley's design department and production workshop.

Then I heard about a model that the company is about to complete in this period of time, the Bentley Mulsanne developed from the T series.

This can be regarded as a more classic Bentley model, equipped with a 6.75L Rolls-Royce V8 engine, full of power.

After seeing the prototype of the Bentley Mulsanne, Li Guangyu said to Du Yuemei: "First, order two for me. I want a special model. As the owner of Bentley, I naturally want to use my own cars."

Du Yuemei said: "Don't worry Li Sheng, we will take care of you and your two cars."

Li Guangyu said: "When your car is on the market, contact Xiangyu Group and Jiayi Group to promote this model."

Today's Bentley is far less famous than Rolls-Royce, especially in Asia, where the reputation is even lower. This time, with the influence of these two major groups and Li Sheng, the cars of our group are sold in Southeast Asia, Xiangjiang, Baodao, Japan and other places have opened up the market.

Du Yuemei knew that after the families in Xiangjiang knew that Li Guangyu was the owner of Bentley, they would definitely consider it when buying a car.
