We are all reborn, who wants to be the richest man?

"What should we do now? The other party has made their demands. Should we agree to them?"

"You must agree to it, but how to agree to it is another matter."

The loss of Marubeni, Luo Nianzhong and the Far East Group is acceptable. In the field of trade, the Far East Group can quickly establish its own channels in the island country. The brand influence is there, so there is no question of whether it is easy to promote it or not.

In areas such as procurement, agriculture, machinery, and sales, the Far East Group does not rely on Marubeni at all.

As for Asia America Company, as long as the Far East Group does not reduce its holdings, the other party will never be able to make any waves.

It seems that a lot has been lost, but the companies are still high-growth and stable-profit. The Osaka Chamber of Commerce needs blood replenishment. The Far East Group is tasteless and it would be a pity to discard it. There are too many profitable companies in the Far East Group. Marubeni is now more like an investment in the Far East Group, while Asia America is a strategic goal.

So if you compare it to possible future gains, it's like winning the lottery.

Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to win the jackpot in this lottery, as the money is absorbed internally.

But you can't help but be the male protagonist of a happy novel. Not only do you know the lottery number, but the other party also gives you this number.

How can you miss such an opportunity? You must buy it.

"Call Piech and ask him to come over if necessary."

Everyone was stunned, wondering why they suddenly wanted to call Piech, the head of Audi Group, over when they were talking about the Osaka Chamber of Commerce.

Only Welchino looked at Luo Nianzhong thoughtfully, but did not say anything. Instead, he picked up a notebook and wrote something.

Afterwards, Luo Nianzhong started to make tea. Seeing that the topic suddenly stopped, everyone began to chat. Welch even asked his secretary to serve some tea and snacks, as if they were holding a party.

"Jack, I heard that Rick is having a hot relationship with a woman from an island country and they are planning to get married?"

Welch's eldest son is now a middle-level cadre in the Far East Group. He has grown a lot since he was left in mainland China to be in charge of Anshan Iron and Steel.

Later, Rick was transferred to the position of vice president of the Honor Computer Island branch, where he met his current girlfriend, Rina Asai. It is said that they were introduced by Keiko Matsuzaka when she went to Tokyo.

Luo Nianzhong thinks it's pretty good. Although he doesn't like this country very much, objectively speaking, the women in this country are not bad.

Whether it is European and American women or later domestic women, they cannot be as traditional as the women of the island countries and be so obedient.

This is also the reason why wealthy people in Europe and the United States later liked women from island countries and traditional Chinese women.

"Yeah, Rick had that idea."

Robert, who was eating a piece of watermelon, was quite surprised to hear that they were really going to get married. "That's not right. Isn't Rick the type who likes the Dragon King brother?"

Welch didn't react, and no one else understood either. Only Luo Nianzhong understood and laughed.

Seeing everyone turning their eyes to him, Luo Nianzhong explained, "The Dragon King's brother is Brother Long."

The others reacted and burst into laughter, but Welch's face turned black and he gritted his teeth at Robert and said, "Letting Rick meet you is the worst thing I have ever done in my life."

Why Rick likes girls with big breasts? The culprit is Robert.

After Rick became an adult, it was Robert who took him to see the colorful world for the first time, and it was Robert who revealed that Rick had chosen two big cows but they were average looking.

The Audi Centre is in Central, very close to the Bauhinia headquarters, only about twenty minutes away, and the journey was spent in laughter and joy.

Piech pushed open the door of Welch's office and greeted everyone inside one by one.

"You are quite good at keeping up with the times. This pot of tea is just at its best when you drink it."

"Really? Then I'm very lucky."

Unlike John White, the North American, Europeans, especially Western Europeans, are very fond of tea as a drink.

Of course, it cannot be compared with the British. The proportion and per capita consumption of tea by British people even exceeds that of Chinese people.

Tea has always been a major import item for Britain.

"How far has Audi Group progressed in acquiring AVL?"

Piech didn't expect that Luo Nianzhong called him over to ask this, but looking at the core bosses of the group in the office, wasn't he making a fuss out of nothing?

When it comes to AVL, many people may not have heard of it, but when it comes to Lister, many people who are not in the automotive industry should have heard of it more or less.

AVL is an Austrian automotive industry consulting company and independent research institute.

Lister is mainly engaged in the research and development of internal combustion engines, research and sales of internal combustion engine testing equipment and automobile testing equipment.

How powerful is this company? Almost all the car companies you have heard of in the market have trade relations with them, and this is not the peak.

Luo Nianzhong remembers that during the heyday of Lister, almost all the automobile manufacturers in the world were their partners.

Especially in the market in the north, whether it is internal combustion engine development and design or testing equipment, it occupies more than 70% of the Greater China market share, which can be said to be a monopoly.

The reason for this is that, on the one hand, Lister's technology is indeed top-notch, and another reason is that this company has a connection with rabbits.

Professor Lister, the founder of Lister, taught at Tongji University in Shanghai for six years from 1926 to 1932.

Even after returning to Austria to found AVL, old List always put "cultivating first-class scientific and technological talents for the country and supporting the independent and rapid development of the domestic engine industry" first.

To this end, AVL donated a lot of technology and equipment to scientific research and educational institutions such as Tongji University and Jilin University of Technology (now Jilin University).

Scholarships have been established to support outstanding students and to carry out academic exchange activities.

We develop, design, modify and optimize domestic automobile, train, marine and industrial engines, invite domestic technicians to participate in related important technical work, cultivate talents in the domestic engine field in practice, and support the independent development of the domestic engine industry.

The dedicated efforts of Professor Lister and AVL have been praised by the domestic engine industry, so all related domestic companies put Lister's products first, which can be regarded as a return of favor.

"It wasn't very smooth. The other party agreed to let us inject capital, but the shares could not exceed 10%."

After a moment of silence, Piech raised his head and shook his head slightly, "And based on the feedback from the past few contacts, it is impossible to defeat Lister and gain control of the discourse power."

"Then think of it as an investment."

Piech did not expect Luo Nianzhong to give up just like that. He said that it was an investment rather than a strategic stake, which meant that the Audi Group no longer needed to follow up on this matter. What followed next was the investment institution's business.

He called him over, asked about AVL's situation, and then suddenly gave up. Piech was a little confused.

"What's the current situation of Hitachi?"

This time, Luo Nianzhong looked at John Baibo, who had always been the one in contact with Hitachi.

"Very bad."

John Baibo sighed and pursed his lips.

"Tell me more specifically."

“This is very bad not only for us but also for Hitachi itself.

Regarding our investment in taking over Hitachi's management rights, Hitachi was divided into two factions, some in support and some against.

Although there are more shareholders supporting us, it does not cause much waves. The attitude of Fuji Bank, the major shareholder, and several important shareholders is resolute.

However, Hitachi, which has been suppressed by us, is not doing well now. The sales of the group's two major revenue points, display and DRAM chips, have fallen sharply. In addition, many of its subsidiaries have not yet recovered from the economic crisis and cannot be abandoned. So overall, it is still heavily in debt, robbing Peter to pay Paul.

If Fuji Bank had not continued to lend money to them, Hitachi would have faced several bankruptcy crises."

Luo Nianzhong understood that the small shareholders wanted to surrender for the sake of their interests. After all, he was just a mascot, so he would follow whoever could help him make more money.

But the Fuji Group, especially the Yasuda family, cannot think this way. They have already lost Canon and Nissan. If they lose Hitachi again, it will be a serious blow to their vitality.

Of course, it’s not Yuandong’s fault that he wanted to take advantage of the situation. It was his own fault for being so hot-headed at the time, otherwise it wouldn’t have happened.

Now most of the money Hitachi earns goes to banks, so there is nothing wrong with the Far Eastern Group choosing to support Rabbit's display business and South Korea's Hynix's DRAM chips.

These are also other people's companies. Their sales profits are definitely higher than Hitachi's. After all, Far East holds very few Hitachi shares.

After receiving responses from Piech and John Baibo, Luo Nianzhong looked at Welch.

The Luo family's closest minister seemed to have expected this and handed over the notebook in his hand.

Luo Nianzhong laughed after watching it, "It seems that we are in sync with each other."
