Chapter 227 Dafeng enters the game

Meanwhile, in Wolfsburg, Germany.

As the headquarters of Dafeng Motor, Wolfsburg’s status in Germany cannot be underestimated. Dafeng Motor started from this industrial city in northern Germany, and has grown step by step to become the world’s number one car company today. .

The news of Wei Peng Automobile's bankruptcy has already spread to Europe and the United States, and Wolfsburg can naturally know about it.

At this time, Fred was holding a newspaper in his hand, and there was a piece of news in the newspaper, which reported the bankruptcy of Wei Peng Motor.

Although it is convenient to view this news on the Internet, Fred is still used to reading paper newspapers, thinking that this is the real reading.

Fred has read the news about the bankruptcy of Wei Peng Automobile several times. When he first saw the news, Fred was also very shocked. You must know that the original Wei Peng Automobile was regarded by Fred as Dafeng Motor's biggest competitor in the Chinese market in the future!

In the first few years of its establishment, Wei Peng Automobile was so powerful that Fred was shocked at the time, but who would have thought that such a company would decline within a few years, and finally ended up in bankruptcy .

When Fred thought of the past glory of Weipeng Motors, he felt a pity, especially Ma Huafu, the head of this company. Fred felt it was a pity.

A few years ago, Fred had a face-to-face communication with Ma Huafu. At that time, Ma Huafu’s grasp of the development trend of automobiles really surprised Fred. At that time, Fred had the desire to acquire The idea of ​​Wei Peng Auto was just that Wei Peng Auto was on the rise at that time, and this transaction was obviously impossible to succeed, so it was temporarily put on hold.

Unexpectedly, five years later, God gave Fred another chance like this.

Zhou Fei was right, Dafeng Motor really wanted to buy Wei Peng Motor, and Fred not only wanted to buy the company, but he also wanted to buy Ma Huafu!
"Although Wei Peng Automobile has gone bankrupt, it has established various resources in China for more than ten years, but it has always been there. Since Wei Peng Automobile can no longer be used, let us Dafeng Automobile use it instead."

Fred put down the newspaper in his hand and said to himself.

Another point, Zhou Fei did not guess wrong, that is, the reason why Dafeng Automobile wanted to acquire Weipeng Automobile was because of the resources that Weipeng had accumulated over the past ten years. Fred also wanted to take this opportunity to renew Take back the market share that was taken away by Feichi Company!

Although there is a joint venture company called Chunqi Dafeng, Dafeng Motor only holds a part of the equity after all. Especially after the signing of the new contract, the proportion of equity will be further reduced, and the right to speak will be even less.

But if Wei Peng Motors is acquired, it will be different. As a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dafeng Motors, what strategy Dafeng Motors wants to implement in China can be realized through Wei Peng, and there is no need to look at other people's faces. .

Mercedes-Benz has formed a threat to Dafeng Motor in the European and American markets through its joint venture with Futong Motor. The recent hot sale of Golf proves this point. The market was restrained by the formation of Mercedes-Benz.

So this time, Fred will take Wei Peng Motors under the banner of Dafeng no matter what!

Thinking of this, Fred picked up the phone and dialed Jonathan. This time, Fred was going to let Jonathan play as a "vanguard" in the acquisition negotiation. This time, Jonathan's performance in the Chinese market, Fry De is still very satisfied.

"President, what do you want from me?" Jonathan's voice came soon after the call was connected.

"There is one thing that needs to be dealt with by you. You should know about the bankruptcy of Weipeng Automobile. We, Dafeng, are planning to acquire Weipeng, and you will be in charge of the acquisition negotiations this time." Fred replied.

"Are we really going to acquire Wei Peng Automobile?" Jonathan asked in surprise, he always thought it was just media speculation.

"Well, this is a decision I made after discussing with the board of directors. Our Dafeng Motor will officially announce the news in two days. You should make preparations first and make preliminary contact with Wei Peng Motor. What resources do you need? The headquarters will support it." Fred nodded.

"I know the president, I will immediately prepare the relevant materials for the acquisition." Jonathan replied quickly.

"By the way, please pay attention to the recent developments of Feichi Company. If there is any major event, report to me immediately." Fred reminded this matter quickly.

"Flying Chi Company? Why is the president paying so much attention to it? Are they also involved in this acquisition?" Jonathan asked curiously.

According to Jonathan's understanding of Feichi Company, how could Zhou Fei have extra funds for the acquisition of Wei Peng Motors? It is also a joint venture with Futong Motors, and it is also building a production base in China, and Feichi Company has only been established for five years. Time, how can such a young company engage in mergers and acquisitions?

"It's not clear yet, but I always feel that Mercedes-Benz seems to be interested in Wei Peng Motors, and Wei Peng Electronics is the best proof." Fred frowned.

With his decades of business experience, Fred believes that Feichi’s acquisition of Wei Peng Electronics was definitely not as simple as it seems. Taking the opportunity to enter automotive electronics must be one of the goals, but if it is only for this purpose, Fred Ryder doesn't think that's necessarily the case.

"I see. I will pay close attention to all the developments of Feichi Company and report to the president at any time." Jonathan replied quickly without asking any more questions.

"I hope I'm overthinking it." After hanging up the phone, Fred muttered softly. Next, he just needs to wait for Jonathan to report the progress of the negotiation.

***
At the same time, after the meeting at Feichi Company, various departments began to prepare relevant materials according to Zhou Fei's deployment, and Zhou Fei himself went to the city to meet Tang Qiang himself. Start talking to him about bank loans.

Li Jianneng, who is in charge of the bond issuance, is also the person who leads the finance department. He began to prepare various review materials required for the bond issuance, and contacted the corresponding bond underwriters, striving to complete all the bond issuance work within one month.

For Dafeng Motors, due to sufficient funds and rich experience, preparations were made more quickly. In only three days, Jonathan had already prepared all the materials needed for the negotiation, and he made a deal with Fred immediately. reported.

After receiving Jonathan's information, Dafeng Motor also officially issued an announcement, announcing that Dafeng Motor would participate in the acquisition of Wei Peng Motor, and gave its first quotation!
