Perfection of Rebirth

Chapter 769 Depressed Tata

Tata does everything in the country. In the past, Tata offered a reward of 100 million US dollars for those who did not have Tata products at home. In India, "Tata" is everywhere. There is a saying:
In the morning, I was woken up by the alarm clock produced by Tata, went out in a car produced by Tata, passed the steel bridge built by Tata, went to work in a company under Tata, and made a call with a mobile phone of Tata Telecom.

After get off work, I buy food in a supermarket owned by Tata, and then go home and drink tea produced by Tata. In India, as long as it is related to life, there is a shadow of Tata. The life of Indians is closely related to this enterprise.

This point is similar to Samsung's position in South Korea.

If you turn your attention to South Korea, you will find that "Koreans cannot avoid three things in their life: death, taxation and Samsung".

Of all the descriptions of the "Samsung empire," perhaps the most accurate metaphor comes from a widely circulated photo of a former South Korean president bowing respectfully to Samsung leader Lee Kun-hee.

Samsung has been reported to be South Korea's greatest economic success, and has recently been the subject of controversy.

Economists, small and midsize business owners and some politicians say Samsung is no longer just running the country but overtaking it, wielding influence that nearly rivals the government.

How to rein in the size and power of Samsung and other family-run conglomerates has become a key issue in South Korea's presidential election.

For a Seoul resident, she might have been born at Samsung Medical Center and lived in an apartment built by Samsung Engineering & Construction.

Her crib may have been imported, which means the bed may have been imported to South Korea on an ocean freighter built by Samsung Heavy Industries.

As she grows up, she might see an ad for Samsung Life Insurance, possibly produced by Cheil Planning, an ad agency affiliated with Samsung.

She may be wearing clothes from the Bean Pole brand, a subsidiary of Samsung Textiles.When relatives and friends come to Seoul for fun, they may stay at the Shilla Hotel and shop at the Shilla Duty Free, which are also owned by Samsung...

Considering that South Korea is a small place, it is relatively easy to understand that Samsung can have such a large influence.

But India is a big country, a country with a long history, a vast land area, and the largest population in South Asia after the Celestial Dynasty.

In this country, it is possible to make all the citizens inseparable from you. In Jiang Hui's view, Tata is more powerful than Samsung to a certain extent.

It's just that Samsung is relatively well-known in high-tech, and there are more exchanges between China and South Korea, so the people are deeply impressed by Samsung, but few people know about Tata.

In the previous life, Tata really entered into the career of the Celestial People, that is, when they successfully acquired Jaguar Land Rover, but now, Tata is destined to continue to be a stranger.

"Swat, please explain to me why Ford sold Jaguar Land Rover to China, a company that has never produced cars. Didn't you say that we are already the highest bidder?" Ratan Tata said angrily. Swat, who is in charge of Tata Motors' acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover, said.

Ratan Tata is the third-generation leader of the famous Indian enterprise Tata Group and the current chairman.When he took over from his uncle, J.R.D. Tata, the Tata group was a bloated conglomerate struggling with foreign competition.

Now, the Tata Group is actively acquiring foreign companies and boldly entering unfamiliar markets.

Just last year, Tata Steel, a subsidiary of the Tata Group, and Brazil's state-owned steel company bid for the British Corus Steel Company (corus), becoming the world's fifth largest steel company in one fell swoop. An example of a new adventure.

Ratan Tata is an outstanding representative of the Indian corporate world.He is in charge of a huge business empire, covering everything from tea to steel and IT.

When the Ohio State University awarded Ratan Tata an honorary doctorate title in 2001, the evaluation given by the degree committee of the school was: Ratan is an enterprise with "extremely international business vision and plays a leading role in the Indian business community". Home.

At the same time, Ratan, standing on the awarding platform, also heard a strong voice from the international economics community: the process of globalization will lead to the demise of Tata, which started as a family business.

The international market was a fantasy for the former leaders of the Tata Group.

Therefore, after Latan, who has been educated and nurtured by Western management thinking, took the helm, over the past six years, Tata has frequently traveled to 6 countries around the world and successfully launched more than 85 capital mergers and acquisitions to target companies around the world. Among them are tea, automobiles, telecommunications, hotels, software and other international acquisitions.

Originally, the acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover would also be a typical example of Ratan Tata's brilliant achievements, but now it is destined to have no fate with him.

"Chairman, I only got the news yesterday, and I am now confirming the relevant situation with our negotiating counterparts. China's Guanghui Motors had previously purchased a batch of engine production lines and technologies that they eliminated from Ford Motors. I didn't expect that Such an emerging Chinese automaker would be interested in Jaguar Land Rover," Swat explained.

"You didn't think about it, what's the use of not thinking about it? What else have you thought about?" Ratan Tata continued to growl.

Ratan Tata, who was born at the end of 1937, has turned [-] this year. He usually has a steady image, but today he is really not steady.

"Tata" is a household name in India.The founder of the group, Jamsetji, had earlier supplied military supplies to the British army and said "TaTa" (goodbye) after the transaction.

Over time this became the family name.Tata's first textile factory was established in the 70s, and it was the first in India to implement the eight-hour work system, pensions and dividends. 100 years ago, the Tata family became the richest man in India.

Jaguar Land Rover is a British brand, and the acquisition of the two major car brands of its former owner, the British Empire, will definitely have a negative impact on the Indian people beyond what foreigners can imagine.

The Indian people, who have been ruled by Britain for hundreds of years, have very complicated feelings for the British Empire.

If Tata Motors can successfully acquire Jaguar Land Rover, it can definitely be regarded as a national hero in India!
However, now this dream is shattered.

When I woke up, everything changed!

Every time you wake up, there are some things you don’t have to think about now, some people you never have to wait for, you say you love someone you shouldn’t love, your heart is full of scars, you say you made mistakes that you shouldn’t make, My heart is full of regret...

At this moment, Ratan Tata must be full of remorse in his heart.

Don't be afraid of opponents like gods, but opponents like pigs!
