All round car designer

Chapter 202 Secret Acquisition

Looking at the pile of materials in front of him, Zhou Fei rubbed his hands, and then said to Zhang Xiang and Li Jianneng beside him,
"Two, get ready, Lao Li, you are responsible for reviewing these financial statements, roughly estimating the market value of the company's inherent assets, and then reporting the number to me."

"What about me, Mr. Zhou?" Zhang Xiang asked quickly.

Zhou Fei smiled, "The two of us can just take a look at it casually. This time we mainly rely on Lao Li."

As he said that, Zhou Fei randomly picked a piece of material from it, and looked at it with gusto, but Li Jianneng took out the pen he carried with him, and recorded useful information while flipping through the reports.

What Zhou Fei was holding was the technical drawings of several cars that this company had already launched. To be honest, the overall design of the vehicle was very impressive, at least in line with Zhou Fei’s aesthetics for cars. Welcome, probably because the configuration can't keep up.

"Da Yang, are these cars designed by your mentor?" Zhou Fei asked curiously, pointing to the model on the blueprint.

"Well, the car body was designed by my teacher. He is a well-known fluid mechanics expert in the world, so he attaches great importance to the optimization of vehicle aerodynamics. The drag coefficient of the cars he designed is very small. I think these The cars are all pretty nice, I don’t see why it didn’t work out.”

"It should be related to the positioning of the vehicle." Zhou Fei thought about it carefully, and then continued, "The cars designed by your mentor are most suitable for use in supercars, not ordinary civilian cars. It can be as cool as it needs to be, and its configuration can also be very luxurious, but ordinary civilian cars are different, you have a cool appearance, if you can’t match it in configuration, it’s useless. It’s just for show, and consumers may not buy it.”

Jiang Yang tried his best to digest it, and then nodded in agreement, "It seems that this is really the case."

"Business operations are not as simple as academic research. In scientific research, he can do what he should, but business matters are different. If you think about the market completely differently, you can't win the market. The positioning of this product is very important, just like our company's first car QQ, its positioning is young consumers!"

Zhou Fei smiled, teaching Jiang Yang a lesson.

"Brother Fei is amazing! No wonder you can develop the company so well. It turns out that you really understand this. It seems that I still have a lot to learn." Jiang Yang couldn't help but said with a thumbs up.

"Okay, Mr. Zhou, I've roughly calculated the total value of this company." Li Jianneng also quickly completed his work while the two were talking.

"Then tell me in detail." Zhou Fei said hastily.

"Considering that this company has ceased operations, its current assets are negligible. The main value is concentrated in fixed assets, such as factory buildings and workshop equipment, and some intangible assets, such as intellectual property rights. Putting it all together, the total market cap is around $500 million.”

Li Jianneng quickly replied.

"Five million U.S. dollars, that's not too expensive." Zhou Fei nodded. The company value of such a company established by a college teacher is generally not too high, and tens of millions is the most common.

"Mr. Zhou, judging from my many years of financial work experience, this company has absolutely no value for acquisition..." Li Jianneng reminded.

"It's okay, I just want a shell of this company, its actual value is not important to me." Zhou Fei waved his hand and said.

I only want the shell of the company... Could it be that I want to go public through a backdoor?

Thinking of this, Li Jianneng, who is familiar with the operation of the capital market, couldn't help but take another look at Zhou Fei, but Li Jianneng didn't ask carefully, but just buried this thought in his heart.

"Okay, since we have obtained the information we want, let's go back first." After helping Jiang Yang put these materials back to their original place, Zhou Fei said to everyone.

"By the way, Dayang, can you help introduce us to your mentor, I want to talk to him face to face about this tomorrow." On the way back, Zhou Fei said to Jiang Yang.

"Use your real identity, or keep it secret first?" Jiang Yang asked with a smile.

His mentor, Mu Le, admired Zhou Fei very much. If he heard that Zhou Fei wanted to see him, he probably didn't have to wait until tomorrow, he would have to come here tonight.

"You can figure it out. But I can't stay here for too long. At most, I have to go to the United States the day after tomorrow."

"Okay, don't worry, I will let you see my mentor tomorrow."

***
Not long after returning, Jiang Yang finished what Zhou Fei told him, and made an appointment with Mu Le to meet him in his office at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.

After a good night's sleep, after eight o'clock the next day, a group of people came to the office of the mentor Muller under the leadership of Jiang Yang after eating.

For his student, Muller still likes it very much, so Jiang Yang called him last night and said he wanted to introduce a few people to him. He didn't even think about it, so he agreed, without asking in detail. who.

However, when Jiang Yang brought him to Mueller's office, Mueller was stunned because he recognized Zhou Fei among the three at a glance!
For Zhou Fei, a young man, Muller can be said to be extremely respectful, especially the two subversive inventions, the electric fuel injection system and the ABS anti-lock braking system, are simply divine works!

Muller has carefully studied these two inventions, and the working principles are so exquisite that he really can't figure out how Zhou Fei came up with such an exquisite structural design!

Now, this young man whom he often sees in newspapers is standing in front of him so vividly that Muller didn't know what to say for a while.

"Teacher, this is the person I recommended to you, don't you know him?" Jiang Yang said with a smile in German.

"Are you really Zhou Fei himself?" Mu Le came back to his senses and asked quickly.

Zhou Fei touched his head in embarrassment, and looked at Jiang Yang, because he couldn't understand German...

"You are Zhou Fei, please sit down, I happen to have a lot of questions I want to ask you." Mu Le also reacted all of a sudden, and said in not very standard English.

This time, Zhou Fei could understand.

"It's the working principle of this ABS. There is still one thing I haven't figured out..."

As soon as Zhou Fei sat down, Mu Le came over with a drawing and asked directly.

Zhou Fei smiled. No wonder the company is not doing well. He is so obsessed with scientific research, how can he have time to take care of the company's affairs.

But Zhou Fei really likes this kind of character, it's better than those professors who suck the blood of students!

"Teacher, people come to you because they have something to discuss with you. Let's talk about these issues later."

After Zhou Fei answered this question, seeing that Mueller wanted to continue asking, Jiang Yang on the side quickly reminded him.

Mu Le smiled embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, it's so hard to see me, so I couldn't help but ask a few more questions. I don't know what Mr. Zhou wants from me?"

"Actually, it's not a big deal. I heard that one of the professor's companies has gone out of business, so I want to ask, can we buy it secretly?" Zhou Fei asked with a smile.
