Siheyuan: I am Jia Dongxu's cousin

The next day, while giving the acquisition team a week's holiday, Zhang Weiguo had someone publish the news in the Flower News that he had become the second largest shareholder of Ford Motor Company.

In fact, according to Zhang Weiguo's current shareholding, he cannot affect the Ford family's control over Ford Motor. But now is an economic crisis. In this environment, even the Ford family cannot guarantee whether Zhang Weiguo is really going for Ford Motor.

So on the second day after the news was released in the Flower Newspaper, Henry Ford II, the current patriarch of the Ford family, contacted Zhang Weiguo through the Kolobo family of the Mafia.

"Zhang, although I really hope you can acquire Ford, unfortunately, you probably won't succeed, so I hope you can have a good talk with Henry Ford II and get the greatest benefit." There was a hint of hope and regret in Joseph's tone.

Now the entire American power knows that Zhang Weiguo, the richest Chinese man and founder of the Flower Planting Group, married the pearl of their Kolobo family. In this case, everyone will subconsciously think that Zhang Weiguo and their Kolobo family are one.

The two can be said to be deeply bound.

The Kolobo family has now become the undisputed number one family in the Mafia, and the number of supermarket chains controlled by the Kolobo family has reached 2300, far exceeding the Wal-Mart established a few years ago.

In addition to bringing huge wealth to the Kolobo family, these supermarkets also brought a lot of political resources.

You have to know that the supermarket chain owned by the Kolobo family, plus its status in the Mafia, means that the votes in their hands can reach more than 20, which is something that no politician can ignore.

Moreover, chain supermarkets also create many jobs in their locations, whether it is supermarket employees, cleaners, transport workers, etc.

These are the achievements of those politicians!

No politician would regard the Kolobo family as a mafia family. All this comes from Zhang Weiguo.

So in Joseph's eyes, Zhang Weiguo was not only his grandson-in-law, but also an important partner of the Kolobo family. And in Joseph's heart, he really hoped that Zhang Weiguo could acquire Ford Motor, so that the Kolobo family and Zhang Weiguo's votes would make their position in America even more unshakable.

But this is very difficult. It's okay with the government, after all, Zhang Weiguo also has American citizenship, but it's difficult to deal with the Automobile Workers Union. Moreover, the Ford family, as the founder of Ford Motor Company, has controlled Ford Motor Company for many years. Even if Zhang Weiguo really acquired it, it would be difficult to control it.

But Joseph was obviously overthinking it. Zhang Weiguo had never thought of acquiring Ford. He was just after the other party's car manufacturing technology.

"Joseph, for your sake, I will have a good talk with Henry Ford II." Zhang Weiguo tapped the table and replied thoughtfully.

"That's good!" Joseph breathed a sigh of relief and spoke again: "When you have time, remember to visit Yue'er."

"I will." After hanging up the phone with Joseph, Zhang Weiguo began to think.

This time, Henry Ford II took the initiative to find Joseph and was obviously a little anxious. He could take this opportunity to bring more technology to the Hong Kong Island branch.

……

The next day, Zhang Weiguo received a call from Henry Ford II in his office. The two first exchanged polite greetings, and then Zhang Weiguo got straight to the point.

"Mr. Henry, I can give up the subsequent acquisition plan of Ford Motor Company, but you have to meet several of my conditions first." Zhang Weiguo said in a flat tone.

Henry Ford II also knew that it was time for a decisive battle. Whether Zhang Weiguo could give up the acquisition of Ford Motor would depend on the next conversation. So he frowned and tried to make his tone sound calmer: "Zhang, please speak."

"First, I need Ford to set up a branch in Hong Kong Island."

Henry Ford II agreed without a second thought when he heard this, "No problem."

“Second, I want the Hong Kong Island branch to have the ability to independently produce Ford cars.”

"Zhang, if I understand correctly, you want Ford to build a complete automobile production line in Hong Kong Island?" Henry Ford II frowned even more tightly.

"Yes, I think this should not be a difficult task for Mr. Henry!" Zhang Weiguo said with a smile.

"This..." Henry Ford II thought for a moment and agreed.

A production line is indeed not a difficult task for him, the head of Ford, but he always feels that Zhang Weiguo has some bad intentions. However, compared with preventing Zhang Weiguo from continuing to acquire Ford's shares, these are trivial matters.

"Third, the general manager of this branch needs someone I appoint."

"That's no problem." Henry Ford II thought Zhang Weiguo wanted to make a profit, so he agreed directly.

The goal was achieved, and Zhang Weiguo's mood unconsciously became better, so he said in a light tone: "Mr. Henry, I wish us a happy cooperation. The Flower Planting Group will not acquire any more shares of Ford Motor, but I am still very optimistic about the development of Ford Motor."

"Thank you for your trust, Zhang. Believe me, Ford's difficulties are only temporary." After Zhang Weiguo promised not to acquire Ford Motor Company, Henry Ford II's frown relaxed and his tone was filled with confidence in Ford Motor Company.

"I think Mr. Henry is capable, but I still hope that Henry can get the Hong Kong Island branch done as soon as possible."

"Don't worry, Zhang. I will hold a meeting today and will confirm this matter soon."

After hanging up the phone with Henry Ford II, Zhang Weiguo hummed a tune unconsciously.

The successful finalization of the Hong Kong Island branch means that the Flower Planting Group has made up for another shortcoming.

As for taking over the harvest of America, just leave it to his subordinates. Zhang Weiguo will personally start pursuing the acquisition of Fuso's companies.
