Reborn Dubai As A Prince

The Alps are a good choice. Some high-altitude areas are covered with snow all year round, which makes the surrounding Switzerland, France and Italy enjoy the unique coolness in the hot summer.

Skiing in the Alps is also a great pleasure for Europeans, especially in summer. The plane arrived at the airport in southeastern France, and then transferred to a helicopter to the border, where there is a small town called Digne.

The city is small but very famous. In summer, ski resorts, and more importantly, the French—the ice and snow can’t stop the enthusiasm of beauties wearing bikinis for skiing. Beauties bathing on snow-capped mountains are the tourist card of Digne.

"No wonder you don't go to Switzerland!" The little fist of the fan girl came over, it was so hateful, it turned out that it was all about watching beautiful women in bikinis ~ skiing!

Xie He hugged the active girl with a smile, and looked at the snow outside the window together: "Look at the summer here, it's the same as eating and drinking ice cream under the scorching sun.

"It's so beautiful here." She squeezed against him, looking at the scenery outside.

The small town is built around a lake, and the residential area is surrounded by snow-capped mountains, so the landscape is particularly peculiar: people at the bottom of the mountain wear short-sleeved skirts, or paddle boats on the lake, while people at the top of the mountain wear thick clothes and are exposed to ice and snow.

When the two groups of people on the mountain and the mountain look at each other, the inner drama is probably very exciting.

The plane landed in the small town, and the hotel had already been booked. When he got off, Aliya dragged him to choose ski equipment. The purpose of the people around them was the same. They came here to experience the dual world of ice and fire.

When accompanying her to go shopping, Xie He still held a satellite phone in his hand and made calls all the way——a while ago, the financial deficit was serious, and he didn't dare to think too much about business.

However, the arrival of the crisis as expected and the wildly rising crude oil gave him the confidence to play this way. At present, Porsche is still fighting the "Popular Law", Aston Martin has been sold by Ford, and Jaguar Land Rover has been "listed for sale" ".

The downturn in the global auto market has forced Ford to cut some unnecessary projects. Jaguar Land Rover is in the hands of Ford, and it has also encountered the dilemma of big-name acquisitions: both of them can't mix well.

Jaguar Land Rover, which was once on the verge of bankruptcy, has achieved a major reversal after being handed over to Tata, which produces low-end cars!

The Indians bought them for US$2.3 billion. By the 2015 fiscal year, Jaguar Land Rover's revenue had exceeded US$30 billion and its net profit was US$3.3 billion. 【Conservative data 1

Especially after focusing on entering the Tianchao market, in 2014 only in the Tianchao area, it doubled to 4.5 billion pounds (6.7 billion U.S. dollars). This is not a brand that is about to go bankrupt, it is clearly a hen that lays golden eggs!

Must buy!

What is urgent is that it will be acquired by India's Tata early next year. According to various business information, Ford's sincerity in selling is already obvious, and the government has also given the green light in this regard.

Maybe later, Jaguar Land Rover belongs to Indians!

So Sheikh is still holding a satellite phone and yelling around during the holidays, which is also reasonable...He wants to quickly establish an automobile holding group, with the focus on holding shares.

A holding group that does not produce automobiles also has many advantages. At least after being acquired, there is no need to worry about the arguments that "this brand will be destroyed" or "become a third-rate manufacturer from then on." Tata suffered countless criticisms back then.

There is no problem for local tyrants to simply hold shares, Xie He said: "You should hurry up and participate in Ford's bidding plan, contact them first, and start with their shareholders.

"Study our potential competitors, try to get their bidding psychology, focus on India's Tata Corporation, I think they may be the biggest acquisition opponents."

The one who answered the phone was David Anderson of Dubai Holdings. As a comprehensive investment company, he is of course ready to face all walks of life that his boss is interested in.

Anderson quickly made arrangements: "I will set up an acquisition team, communicate with Dubai, set up a car holding company, and the two teams will work together..."

"Let me know if there is any news." Sheikh has maintained a strong interest in Jaguar Land Rover.

It can be said that it is inevitable. After he finished these few phone calls, Aliya also entered the equipment she was satisfied with: "The chairman of the big group?"

Xie He handed over the phone to his subordinates, and went to help her look with a smile. After confirming the clothes, he pointed to the mountain after a while: "Let's take the cable car up the mountain, ski warriors!"

"Hooray!" she exclaimed.

Affected by a huge loss of 12.7 billion US dollars last year, Ford, the world's second largest auto giant, after selling Aston Martin, was overwhelmed by debts and losses, and could only sell children.

Not all of the biological ones are under consideration. It was Aston Martin before, and now it has been made clear that it will package and sell Jaguar and Land Rover within two months. There are still rumors in the industry that Ford also has plans to sell Volvo.

Before waiting for Ford to start the transaction plan, potential acquirers have emerged one after another, such as Han Hyundai, India Tata, Cerberus Capital Management, Pacific Capital and so on.

Obviously, all walks of life are interested in Jaguar Land Rover. Among them, Tata is the most competitive and has been seeking global expansion ambitions. The entire company's top management is busy.

Frequent trips to the United States and India, continuous participation in contacts with politicians and lobbying for shareholders, both internal and external actions, Tata's strong desire to acquire, let them raise the budget to 2.5 billion US dollars.

...asking for flowers......

Of course, they only ask for a price of 2.05 billion U.S. dollars now. After the quotation plan was submitted to Ford, the Indians waited anxiously. The president also held a special meeting to study the plan that was too low in price and too strong in competition.

But soon, the secretary came to the ear of President Tata and told him the good news: "At present, our quotation is ahead of our opponents. The acquisition bid proposed by Mahindra Group is 1.9 billion US dollars, and the private equity firm under JP Morgan Chase has bid 1.8 billion US dollars." .

"very good."

The Indian said hello a few times in satisfaction, and couldn't wait to share the good news to the senior management: "Gentlemen, we have achieved the first step of success. Our current quotation of 2.05 billion is far ahead of our opponents!"

Everyone was overjoyed when they heard it, and some applauded: "According to the current bid, our budget is safe enough to win Jaguar Land Rover!"

Although the president is very proud, he still has to remain humble: "Before the matter is settled, we still need to be cautious, and we must not be negligent in the pace of our global expansion.

Everyone quickly calmed down again, but it was clear through the quotation that Ford now has few choices, and Tata has already become the preferred bidder by virtue of its excellent price.

As long as there are no incidents along the way, Tata will be able to enter the program when it acquires Jaguar Land Rover... The history of the previous life is also unfolding like this, but this life is a little different.

Just before Ford selected Tata and wanted to start special acquisition negotiations, a company called "Global Automobile Holdings Group", which sounds like a shell company, sent a bidding plan.

They are willing to pay 2.3 billion US dollars to acquire Jaguar Land Rover.

All of a sudden, it was 250 million US dollars higher than the Indian bid. This amount of money is definitely an amount that cannot be ignored for today's Ford. Ford's bosses are all concerned: "Who are they?"

A shell company is also coming to buy Jaguar Land Rover? No one will believe it. Of course, the information in this regard has not been concealed, and soon pointed to the Dubai consortium.

"Dubai?" Ford boss's expression became bright. Like other people in the world, he also knows the money-burning ability of the local tyrants in Dubai. Could it be that they have taken a fancy to Jaguar Land Rover?

"Tell the news to the Indians. The boss doesn't need to think about this trick.

The Indians, who were originally happy today, suddenly learned of this bad news: "The Dubai consortium bid $2.3 billion [to compete with us for the acquisition of Jaguar Land Rover!"

The boss of Tata who was drinking coffee almost sprayed - a local tyrant killed him halfway!.
