Reborn in Hong Kong: The Tycoon Grows Up - v2 Chapter 1639
Being able to occupy the European market, the richest man is still very interested. If you want to occupy the arms market of the United States and the Soviet Union, it will definitely be impossible. After all, the military enterprises themselves have very strong technical strength, coupled with national protection, etc.; it is simply not realistic for foreign companies to enter. Then we can only think of ways from other countries.
Middle Eastern countries are indeed the best choice, after all, where people are stupid and rich; high-end weapons cannot be produced at all. And because of the good relationship with the Black Cloud Group, it is not difficult to sell to the Middle East countries. Only in the Middle East countries, the purchase volume is limited after all. Although it is very rich here, and the demand for weapons is not small. But there are not too many countries that can buy high-end weapons and equipment.
Although Europe does not seem to be so high-profile, it is because people know how to forbear. As a region that has been the center of the world for nearly 300 years, its heritage is incomparable to other continents. Once the Soviet Union disintegrates, the relations between European countries will not be so close; of course, the relationship with the United States will be the same.
It is not so easy for French fighter jets to be exported to other European countries. At this time, the high-quality and cheap Swedish fighters may really be able to occupy part of the market. Compared with Dassault, Sabo is at an absolute disadvantage at the moment. If it goes on like this, what will happen to Sabo in the end is really hard to judge too much.
Heiyun Group can join forces with it, and it is absolutely no worse than any aviation giant in technology. As for financial strength, it will leave competitors several blocks away.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile, “Bao is still very interested in your proposal, and I don’t know how to cooperate.”
Hearing the other side let go, Anthony Bofors was very satisfied. As long as Bao Zixuan has the intention to cooperate, then the matter is half done. As the richest man in the world, where is the identity of the other party;
Anthony Bofors: “Actually, I also thought before that the cooperation between the two companies involves too many things; and it is very easy to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, and even make other fighter jet manufacturers jealous. Therefore, I thought about using Saab as a company. cover; it can be delayed for a while, although it will eventually be discovered.”
“Wait until our fighter is in mass production, it won’t matter if it’s discovered.”
Hearing that the other party wanted to find a vest, Bao Zixuan immediately understood what he meant. The old man is really a thief, he doesn’t want to pay, and he wants Heiyun to help revitalize Saab Motor Company.
When it comes to the worst brand in the auto world, Saab may have its place. The reason why it can be called miserable is because of its own bull nose. Just imagine a car company with little success, if it collapses, it collapses, and if it sells, it sells. But Sabo is different. Although he has been reincarnated eighteen times, he is talked about every time he changes hands.
Saab’s predecessor was Swedish Aircraft Co., Ltd., suffering from the lack of a market for fighter jets after World War II, Saab was struggling to make a living, so he had to turn around and build cars after thinking about it. So Saab’s bull nose belt was born with lightning.
Before building aircraft, the level of engine research and development will not be much worse. Coupled with the fact that Saab put the aerodynamic design of the aircraft on the car, the Saab car is very sporty when it debuts. Its 9-2, 9-3, 9-4, 9-9 and other models were an instant hit, very popular, and quickly gained popularity.
Saab is very pursuit of car building, the whole car can use the best. So there is a joke: You never know why Saab is so expensive without a car accident.
But doing business, too conscientious often will not end well. Because of this ultimate pursuit, Saab is facing huge economic pressure under the high cost of building cars, and it is shaky. In the previous life, GM helped Saab and injected capital to buy 50% of Saab’s shares. Sabo thought he could take off again, but the abacus was still a little tricky for the Americans.
As we all know, a GM car, as its name suggests, is a GM car, as long as the logo is changed, it can be used in all continents. So after a few years, GM completely acquired Saab, and it didn’t take long to merge Saab’s engine division; it directly led to Saab becoming a veritable GM brand. Sabo without a soul is equivalent to dying.
However, GM did not hesitate for a long time. Due to the impact of the US subprime mortgage crisis, the overwhelmed GM immediately sold the underperforming Saab. This sale immediately attracted the attention of BMW, Fiat, Hyundai, Geely and other car companies.
The production line was sold to BAIC Group, and the brand was bought by Spyker. Spyker was very happy and threatened to restore Saab’s glory. But not long after Spyker spent too much money on the acquisition of Sabo, coupled with its own financial problems; he died, and Sabo died before he even graduated.
I heard that Saab was put on the shelves again, and some companies came to fight for it again. Huatai, Dangda, and Youth all wanted to take over. Afterwards, both the huge and youth money were given, and GM suddenly jumped out and said no. Now that GM has sold all the shares of Saab, why should it step in!
In fact, it really has something to do with GM; the abacus is a good GM, after turning Saab into GM. The supply chain of some key components such as engines and transmissions is in its own hands. You can sell your body, but I will stop supplying these parts to see how you build the car. Helpless, the huge and young people can only suffer from dumb losses, paying a lot of money to only get some of Saab’s technology; and Saab also declared bankruptcy.
Saab is like a spell, everyone is going for its fame, and everyone wants to use its “flying on the ground” technology. But those who are stained with it can hardly escape.
This is to make it clear that if the Black Cloud Group wants to take over Saab, it needs to buy a part of the shares; and at least half of it.
Saab planes are great, but the car company is definitely a hot potato. In the past life, many well-known auto companies have been pitted. Could it be that Heiyun can take over it? Although he thinks that he is very capable, Bao Zixuan is not so self-aware.
Saab cars have been sold countless times, not without reason. Even if the Black Cloud Group takes over, it may not be able to bring it back to life. This old boy is very bad. On the surface, he used Saab as a cover, but in fact, Heiyun took over the Saab. If even Bao Zixuan can’t bring it back to life, then it would be more futile to switch to other companies.
But this is really a good way, as the world’s largest auto group; if Black Cloud Auto is willing to take over Saab, maybe it can really be reborn. But there is one thing that needs special attention. The acquisition of Saab will definitely require some funds; and the amount will not be too small.
But using Saab as a cover can confuse competitors for a while. But when he thought of being calculated, Bao Zixuan’s mood was not very good.
The two sides jointly produced three-generation fighter jets, but Heiyun did not think about the production line. Then it can only be purchased from Saab aircraft, or the other party directly merges the existing production line into Saab Automobile Company. In other words, there is still a lot of money to pay. After all, there is no production line, how can it be possible to produce an aircraft.
In the previous life, GM would acquire Saab because GM’s overall performance was not bad. But because of the strong rise of Heiyun Automobile, it is difficult for General Motors to guarantee itself. How can there be excess funds to acquire Saab Automobile. Therefore, if you want to use the Sabo pit for general use, you can’t do it at all.
GM does not dare to take over, and the local Chinese auto brand has not yet risen. Saab cars may not necessarily have corporate acquisitions, do they just let them fend for themselves.
Sales of Black Cloud cars in Europe have not been very good. Of course, it has something to do with the strength of the European auto industry itself, but the most important thing is that there are no localized European brands.
Bentleys and Ferraris are high-end models that are very expensive, but sales are limited. If you pack Saab well at this time, it may be able to bring surprises.
Bao Zixuan said with a smile: “I understand what you mean, but I don’t know how to do it. If the Black Cloud Group wants to participate, it must take a stake in Saab Automobile.”
Hearing Bao Zixuan’s mention of Saab’s shares, Anthony Bofors revealed a relieved smile; it seemed that the plan was getting closer and closer to success. It may have felt insignificant before, but with money for Saab planes tight; blood transfusions to Saab cars are no longer possible. And because many financial institutions really can’t see any growth point for Saab, they all refuse to provide loans for it.
If you can’t think of a way, the Saab car is bound to fall first. After all, with the current capabilities of Saab’s aircraft, it has its own problems; it has no ability to rescue Saab Motor Company.
The appearance of Bao Zixuan made Anthony Bofors see the light, so he proposed this cooperation!
