Chapter 457 Investment Cooperation (Part 2)
McLaren's titanium alloy engine will not show up until the next race. Here, at most, you can only see the F1 car turning slowly for a few laps.
Rolls-Royce and Pagani have obtained the data they want, and only the Swedes want to see more about the performance of the engine. Unfortunately, McLaren will never reveal too much. I want to know and wait for the next race Bar!
"Boss, I don't like that Swede." When she returned to the hotel at night, Lin Jiayi clearly expressed her attitude.
Not only Lin Jiayi, Huang Weiguo and the three of them were also unhappy, even Guo Tailai was unhappy. That guy bites a yellow-skinned monkey, definitely a white supremacist racist.
"I don't like it either." Guo Tailai replied with a smile.
"Then you don't have any counterattack?" Lin Jiayi asked Guo Tailai very puzzled: "He scolded us yellow-skinned monkeys face to face, so you just bear it? Overseas, the more you swallow your anger, the more they will get worse."
Lin Jiayi has studied abroad for several years and is quite familiar with certain habits of foreigners, so she couldn't understand that Guo Tailai didn't attack the Swede on the spot. Of course, after she understood that Guo Tailai had only studied in China and had only been abroad for a few days, she could understand, but she still had to tell Guo Tailai some countermeasures.
"No!" Guo Tailai replied calmly, "How could he bear it?"
"Then boss, you really didn't fight back!" Lin Jiayi asked again, did the boss do other things?
"I scolded that clown on the spot, what's the point?" Guo Tailai smiled and explained: "But I will destroy their ideals, and the various records they have pursued all their lives are impossible to have. For an ambitious For manufacturers who want to challenge various records, if all their pride in the future is covered by us, isn't this the best counterattack?"
"That's why you, boss, chose to cooperate with Mr. Pagani, right?" Lin Jiayi immediately became interested. Guo Tailai's statement and approach were indeed more enjoyable than targeting only one person, but it took a long time.
"Yes!" Guo Tailai saw Huang Weiguo and the three of them also showed a dazed look, and admitted with a smile: "I want to invest in Pagani, is it possible?"
"It's more difficult!" Lin Jiayi also knew Pagani before. Hearing Guo Tailai's thoughts, she thought for a while and shook her head: "As you know, Pagani's new model has already started design and production. Their financial situation is good. It should be There is no shortage of investment."
"What if I can come up with a new supercar model?" Guo Tailai thought for a while and asked again.
"There are new models?" Lin Jiayi has learned a lot about Guo Tailai's business during this period of time. She has seen Mazda's crazy advertisements for the new model sold to Mazda. Lin Jiayi also knows how long it will take to produce, and how much money will be spent, but she never thought that her boss could come up with a new model so casually, no wonder she dared to continue to invest in the construction of the development base.
"Is it possible?" Guo Tailai nodded with certainty and asked again.
"Why do you want to have a joint venture with someone else when you have a new car model?" Lin Jiayi couldn't understand Guo Tailai's thoughts: "Why do you want to share the money you make? Why don't you register a factory to operate it?"
"Running a car factory is not an easy thing." Guo Tailai smiled wryly: "It is easy to produce a car, sell it, after-sales service, repair and a series of follow-up work, especially a hand-made car, this is not my responsibility. What I am good at. Of course, the most important thing is that I am unlikely to be stuck in this industry for a long time, and I always need a professional and responsible team to run it.”
Lin Jiayi really wanted to say that we recruited people to form a team and do these things by ourselves, but after all, we didn't say much. In China, it is illegal for Guo Tailai to build vehicles by hand. Putting the company abroad will bear a very troublesome reputation of being unpatriotic, and it is equivalent to starting from scratch to set up a company. Even if Lin Jiayi has three heads and six arms, it is impossible for Lin Jiayi to cover everything.
"I'll go and talk." Lin Jiayi was persuaded by Guo Tailai, and finally decided to talk to Mr. Pagani.
Guo Tailai and his party were invited to Modena, Italy. They not only visited Pagani, but also visited Lamborghini and Ferrari under the leadership of Mr. Pagani. These supercar manufacturers left a very deep impression on Guo Tailai. Facing a large group of experienced and serious industrial workers, Guo Tailai was drooling!
The newly assembled Fengzi also made Guo Tailai salivate for a while. He even drove this brand new car around the factory area and praised it.
"G, do you really want to join?" Lin Jiayi talked with Mr. Pagani, and expressed his investment intention according to Guo Tailai's intention. As expected, Mr. Pagani refused at first, until Lin Jiayi said that Guo Tailai could design a new model , Mr. Pagani was interested, and sat down with Guo Tailai to discuss this issue.
"Of course!" Guo Tailai replied to Mr. Pagani without hesitation in his praise of the Pagani factory.
"As you know, we are not short of money." Mr. Pagani reminded Guo Tailai very tactfully: "And it is unlikely to give away too many shares."
"Twenty million dollars, five percent!" Guo Tailai thought for a while, and stretched out five fingers: "There are also some performance improvements for Zonda, how about it?"
Twenty million U.S. dollars, five percent, is equivalent to Guo Tailai's recognition that Pagani is now worth 400 million U.S. dollars. Although Pagani has just launched its first supercar, Guo Tailai is already very sincere at this price. And as long as 5%, it will not have a particularly large impact on the management of Pagani, and the major shareholder is still Mr. Pagani.
However, what impressed Pagani more was Guo Tailai's latter condition, which was the performance improvement for Zonda. The zonda is like his own son. If Guo Tailai can greatly improve the performance of the current zonda, Pagani will definitely be happy to see it.
"How about the new model that Ms. Lin mentioned?" Pagani was a little tempted, very tempted, but he still proposed more.
"I only have 5% of the shares, Mr. Pagani." Guo Tailai reminded Mr. Pagani with a smile: "New models can be cooperated, but it can't be free. Each new model can be negotiated individually, or directly bought out. It is also possible to divide the car, and the specific situation will be discussed in detail.”
"For some top-level configurations, you need to build the engine yourself." Pagani made another request.
"Yes!" Guo Tailai nodded and agreed, "But the number cannot exceed three per year."
"Deal!" Pagani nodded without hesitation.
