Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

No. 10 Downing Street is traditionally the official residence of the First Chancellor of the Exchequer. However, since the position of the First Chancellor of the Exchequer was also the prime minister, No. 10 Downing Street has become the first official residence of the UK.

No. 10 Downing Street, whether it is close to Parliament, the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, or Buckingham officials, as the British Prime Minister, I will meet people from all walks of life and important figures from all over the world.

This time, Xia Yu and Duke Carter Howard came to this place together and met Margaret Thatcher in the reception hall.

"Ms. Margaret, hello!"

"Sir Carter, Mr. Xia, how are you!"

Maybe it was Duke Carter Howard among the people who visited, so Margaret Thatcher was very friendly and warm.

After the two sides exchanged greetings, they took their seats one after another.

Xia Yu and Duke Carter Howard looked at each other, the latter coughed slightly, attracted Margaret Thatcher’s sight, and said aloud: “Ms. Margaret, I’m here to disturb you this time. There is one thing I want to get your support."

Margaret Thatcher narrowed her smile, looked at Carter Howard calmly, nodded slightly and said, "Please say!"

Duke Carter Howard smiled slowly, and said slowly: “I don’t know if you know, now the Rolls-Royce Motor Company has re-emerged. Since January, it has sold more than 2,000 cars with a turnover of more than one. Fifty million pounds."

Margaret Thatcher really didn’t know about it. She looked surprised, looked at Xia Yu, then returned her gaze to Duke Carter Howard, and asked in surprise: "Sir Carter, you Is it true? That's great. There are many workers who have stable jobs. These families should thank you."

Duke Carter Howard smiled and shook his head and explained: "No, it was Mr. Xia who actually did all of this. It was under his reform that Rolls-Royce Motor Company was revitalized."

Margaret Thatcher did not expect that Duke Carter Howard would answer this way. He looked at Xia Yu in surprise and said sincerely: "Mr. Xia, I thank you on behalf of the British people and thank you for your contribution to Britain. Contribution."

Xia Yuqiang resisted Ge Ying, and said modestly: "Ms. Margaret, you can just say that. I am also a British citizen. This is what I should do, right?"

Margaret Thatcher was taken aback, and then said apologetically: "I'm sorry, please forgive my mistakes, but your contribution is indelible."

Xia Yudan smiled and pointedly said: "Ms. Margaret, I am honored to be able to contribute to the people. If I have the opportunity, I hope I can do more for the government and the people."

Margaret Thatcher's heart shuddered, the secret path came right away, her smile on her face remained unchanged, and she said, "Thank you for your effort!"

At this time, according to the discussions on the car at the time of arrival, Duke Carter Howard once again said: "Ms. Margaret, although Rolls-Royce Motor Company has re-emerged, it is compared with Volkswagen, BMW, Ford and other companies. , Is still very weak and does not have the strength to compete directly with them. In order to cope with the ubiquitous competition, we intend to strengthen the Rolls-Royce Motor Company as soon as possible."

"It can also solve the burden for the government and make greater contributions to the people."

"We intend to acquire Leland Automobile Group and hope to obtain government approval."

As soon as he said this, the smile on Margaret Thatcher's face completely disappeared, her brows frowned, and a completely embarrassed expression.

But who was not a fox, Xia Yu and Duke Carter Howard stared at him quietly, waiting for her answer.

"Leyland Automobile Group? I don't know this company that much..."

Margaret Thatcher said with some regret, as if she wanted to temporarily shirk the matter and put the matter on hold.

She is a prudent person, never expressing her attitude casually without understanding the situation, just like now.

But Xia Yu and the others were prepared. He immediately took out a document and put it on the desktop, pushed it in front of Margaret Thatcher, made a gesture of please, and said with a faint smile: "Margaret Thatcher Madam, this is all the information of Leland Automobile Group, you might as well take a look."

(⊙o⊙)...

"Okay! Please wait a moment!"

Reluctantly, Margaret Thatcher picked up the file and read it quietly.

For a long time, she put down the documents, looked up again, looked at the two with some embarrassment, and said: "I understand the situation. If Rolls-Royce Motor Company acquires Leland Motor Group, there will be suspicion of monopoly. It may not pass, even if it passes, there will be trouble."

In fact, Margaret Thatcher's worries are not unreasonable!

There are particularly many car factories in the UK, but in the past few decades, they have merged one after another, and there are not many left.

When Rolls-Royce Motors was still in decline, it can be said that the only profitable company was Jaguar Motors. Jaguar Motors was also the company with the highest car sales in the UK.

Now Rolls-Royce Motors has re-emerged, and has surpassed Jaguar Motors, seeing the annual turnover will also exceed.

If Rolls-Royce Motor Cars merges with Leland Motor Group, then other British automakers will almost lose their competitiveness, and there is absolutely suspicion of monopoly.

But can you give up because of this possibility?

Absolutely impossible!

And Xia Yu had a solution long ago! He will do something later!

Therefore, Xia Yu did not change his face, and confidently said: "Ms. Margaret, even if Leland Group is acquired, there are still Aston Martin, McLaren and Lotus automakers, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars will not Create a monopoly."

"And if you take a closer look, you will find that the British car market has almost become a dumping ground for island cars and American cars. In this case, if the major car manufacturers in the UK do not unite, they will not even be able to protect their face!"

Xia Yu's words came to Margaret Thatcher's pain, her face was a little gloomy.

Now that the offensive has been launched, it must be done in one go.

Xia Yu continued: "And now Leland Automobile Group has been losing money, and the government has to spend hundreds of millions of pounds to fill it up. If this money is used to improve people's livelihood, it will make the lives of hundreds of thousands or even millions of citizens better."

"If the Leyland Motor Group is acquired by Rolls-Royce Motor Cars, we are confident that it will rejuvenate and create generous tax revenue for the UK, just like Rolls-Royce Motor Cars."

"Rolls-Royce Motor Cars has already had a turnover of 150 million pounds in just over a month. When the Geneva Motor Show opens in March, the sales of Rolls-Royce's two new cars will increase sharply. The company's turnover this year It is possible to exceed 1.5 billion pounds, which will contribute five or six billion in tax revenue to the government."

"If the Leyland Automobile Group is acquired, the profits and taxes generated will only be higher, and the government will lose one burden."

Seeing Margaret Thatcher's face in thought, and even a little ready to move, Xia Yu paused, and then said: "The automotive industry has always been the pride of Britain, but now in the world, when it comes to cars, people only think of It’s American cars, German cars, and island cars. How many people can remember British cars?"

"As a big country, the United Kingdom needs a facade in the automotive field. The strengths of the world's major auto giants are all-round. Although the two new cars launched by Rolls-Royce Motor Company are very popular, this advantage is only temporary. The crisis still exists. The Rolls-Royce Motor Company urgently needs to improve its overall competitiveness in order to be able and confident to step out of the UK and become a world-class automotive giant, competing fiercely with Ford, Volkswagen and Toyota!"

"Ms. Margaret, you are a wise leader. You have been trying to lead the re-emergence of the British economy. I hope you will consider our proposal."

After speaking, Xia Yu kept silent and drank tea quietly.

He has said everything that should be said, and his reasons are sufficient. If Margaret Thatcher still disagrees with these reasons, then he has to doubt the latter's determination in economic reform.

Duke Carter Howard gave Xia Yu an admiring look, and then slowly said: "Ms. Margaret, Mr. Xia’s views are consistent with mine. Although the British auto industry is still developed, almost all profits are made by foreign auto companies. Go, we are contributing to other countries, now is the time to take back what we lost!"

After a long time, Margaret Thatcher calmed down, nodded and said: "I understand what you mean, and I also hope that the British auto industry will get back its own glory."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Yu and Duke Carter Howard suddenly smiled.

This is done!

As for the Prime Minister’s approval, will you object to it?

Xia Yu is not worried at all. After all, no one will be evil to the three parties at the same time. Even the Labor Party and the Liberal Party will not do such stupid things~www.ltnovel.com~ unless they want to have two more powerful enemies in the next general election. .

"Ms. Margaret, maybe tomorrow Rolls-Royce Motor Company will initiate an acquisition of Leland Motor Group."

Xia Yu said aloud.

Margaret Thatcher nodded slightly and said, "I see."

The matter had been negotiated, and after a few words of greeting, Xia Yu and others said goodbye.

On the way back, Xia Yu and Duke Carter Howard rode in the same car. Xia Yu smiled and said politely: "Sir Carter, thanks to you this time."

Duke Carter Howard said with a smile: "No, it's your reason that made Margaret heart. If it was me, I would not refuse."

"Although Rolls-Royce Motor Company only sold 120 million pounds when it was sold to us, the government will be the biggest beneficiary if it can generate 5.6 billion pounds in taxes this year."

Xia Yu smiled and said: "It should not be difficult for a turnover of more than 1.5 billion pounds. As long as the Geneva Motor Show opens, it will be time for Rolls-Royce Motor Cars to break out."

Duke Carter Howard was immediately happy, and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha..."

"By the way, Sir, the privatization of Jaguar and the acquisition of TI Automotive Systems also need your help."

"No problem. William Lyons has given his life to Jaguar. Although he has retired, he has always worried about Jaguar's future. His son is not interested in running a car company. He has no reason to refuse the results."

"As for the acquisition of TI Automotive Systems, if you encounter difficulties, let Rudolph Brooker come to me at any time."

"Ok."
