v2 Chapter 976： Bentley Scramble Eight

When it comes to the acquisition of well-known brands and large domestic companies, there are many procedures to go through. And it must be reported to the British business department, at least the Black Cloud Group has to promise not to take the Bentley out of the UK. Otherwise, no matter how good the relationship is, the British government will not agree to the acquisition.

The reason why it went so smoothly is not only the fact that the preparatory work was very good. More importantly, the Bentley family and all the employees hope that the Black Cloud Group will be the owner. This is a huge benefit for them, at least Bao Zixuan has never treated his partners and employees badly. The business reputation spread unknowingly, and the richest man Bao is definitely a benchmark.

The Black Cloud Group came to invest, but the royal family and the Prime Minister's Office both acquiesced. The British business department would dare to block the acquisition of Bentley. They were about to set off firecrackers to celebrate. The large-scale presence of the Black Cloud Group means that the British economy will have great development.

This is not nonsense, but there are exact cases where. Whether it's Hong Kong, mainland China, or even a place like the Middle East where birds don't shit, as long as Bao Zixuan says it's okay, there's nothing wrong.

The Soviet titanium alloy was only a little more expensive than metals such as copper and iron. With the large-scale publicity and application of the Black Cloud Group, it is now only a little lower than the price of gold. Invisibly saving the Soviet economy, this is the strength of Bao Zixuan.

Heiyun came to the UK to invest, and he would definitely not enter the financial field. Then the high-end manufacturing industry will take off. No matter how you look at it, it will be beneficial to the British Empire without any harm.

Therefore, after reporting to the British Ministry of Commerce, there was no hesitation. Direct approval, the speed is unimaginable. The acquisition of Bentley by the Black Cloud Group has created another record invisibly. Whether it's negotiating, getting approvals, and staff placement; it's all about speed.

Most Britons have an aloofness that is incompatible with others. Aloofness is the most obvious character trait of the British. They are reluctant to talk to others, never talk about themselves, and do not reveal their feelings, and they will not be hilarious. It is difficult for people from other countries to understand the inner world of the British

The British also have conservative ideas that are conservative and unwilling to accept new things. The British are known for their conservatism, but the British think their way of doing things is the best and most reasonable. Some people say that it will take 20 to 40 years for the British to accept the new things in the United States. Although this statement is a bit exaggerated, it is not unreasonable. The British did not adopt the metric system that is commonly used in the world until now, and still use the mile. It was not until 1971 that the currency unit was changed to decimal.

It can be said that working in the UK is really unacceptable to ordinary people. But who would have thought that the British government department actually has such a quick side, which is really unpredictable.

The acquisition of Bentley was a big deal, and no one thought it could be done in just three days. The efficiency of Bao Zixuan and the Heiyun Group is obvious to all, but they did not expect the British to be so powerful this time. It seems that it still depends on the person. Those who are close to Zhu are red and those who are close to ink are black. It is not unreasonable.

Now that all the formalities have been completed, as a boss, you must meet with your employees. First impressions are important, at least not for employees to fault them. Bentley will continue to develop according to the trajectory of its previous life, and these British workers need to be appeased. And Heiyun Group is preparing to invest heavily; at least let the British take a good look; Heiyun Group's working style and work attitude.

Bentley doesn't have many employees, just 2,300; after all, only a few thousand cars are produced each year. It is not enough for the production of Heiyun Automobile in one day, which is the main reason why it entered the 1990s with serious losses.

In later generations, whether BMW or Volkswagen, more in the early stage, they relied on mass-produced cars to support them. It was not until the rise of the Huaxia market that the two brands were truly profitable.

No matter how powerful Bao Zixuan is, it is difficult to make Bentley profitable in a short period of time. However, for high-end brand cars, Heiyun Group must enter. Now is not the best time, but it is not particularly bad either.

At least it is still in the honeymoon period with the UK, and there will be no investment tendency in the future. As a qualified businessman, you still need to see where you can get enough profit. Of course, under the same circumstances, appropriate care must be taken.

It is difficult to realize the automobile engine industry in Huaxia in a short period of time. Not only that, it is estimated that aircraft manufacturing will also face serious challenges. Therefore, the richest man in Bao is already considering whether to put the large aircraft project in the UK. Now everything focuses on cultivating teams and learning techniques. Putting it in Huaxia, it is estimated that McDonnell will not show his true skills. Even if McDonnell Douglas agrees, the U.S. government will block it.

Bao Zixuan said to the audience, "Hello everyone, I'm Bao Zixuan from the Black Cloud Group, and that is your new boss."

"It is an honor for me and the entire Heiyun Group to be able to stay in Bentley. For this 65-year-old automobile company, it is estimated that no one in the world does not know his existence."

"Although Bentley's revenue capacity and popularity have been very mismatched recently. But this has little to do with you; I saw yesterday that Bentley's workers are very conscientious."

"Let's not talk about the previous things now, we have to look forward. The Black Cloud Group is a big family, and I, Bao Zixuan, hope that every worker who follows me can have a good life. At least don't worry about petty money, that's what I said. Job-hopping is not for part-time work, but to go out and start a business.”

"For some of Bentley's employee ratings, there are many points that are not very reasonable. It will be re-assessed later, at least to ensure the legal rights of female skilled workers."

"As for your salary, it will also be implemented with reference to the standards of the British auto industry and Heiyun Auto. In short, it will not make you suffer, but I want to see the results. No one's money comes from the wind, and I, Bao Zixuan, too. No exception. Where the value is, you need to reflect."

It was as brief as ever, but it made the Bentley workers, especially the female workers, excited to hear it. The man really fulfilled his promise, and women can also enjoy the treatment of senior technicians.

This is enough. As for the increase in salary, it really doesn't matter much. At least after joining the Black Cloud Group, no employee has said that the salary is not good.

After the employee's problem is solved, it can be smoothly transitioned. Bao Zixuan held a management meeting, which once again subverted the perception of Bentley and the British.

What is this man doing, don't you have to rest!

But at this time, it is better to follow the rules if you are messing around with others. At least not to make a bad impression on the new boss, which will make it difficult to gain a foothold in the business in the future.

Bao Zixuan did not preside over the management meeting, and John Chambers was the general manager of Heiyun Automobile. The Bentley cars he acquired were directly managed by him.

In fact, Bao Zixuan's speech just now was just to appease people's hearts. After all, the attitude has to show that John Chambers can't be replaced.

After seeing the staff arrive, John Chambers said: "Everyone already knows me, so I will introduce too much here. After Heiyun acquired Bentley, the management will not adjust in a short time."

"As for the CEO of Bentley, it has always been a concurrent role from Rolls-Royce; now it is obviously not suitable. Therefore, after a decision by the company, Mr. Vincent Bentley will be appointed as the CEO of Bentley and be responsible for daily management."

Regarding Vincent-Bentley's background and ability, a detailed investigation has been sent for a long time. It can be said that the other party is still competent for this position and the return of the management of Bentley to the Bentley family is also a kind of inheritance. The most important thing is that Baozixuan needs to make a smooth transition, at least not to cause extravagance. All things considered, Vincent Bentley is the most suitable candidate.

Moreover, the other party also owns 3% of the shares of Bentley Motors, and it is understandable to let him serve as CEO.

As long as R&D, sales, and finance are well controlled, I believe Vincent-Bentley will not be able to set off any storms. Moreover, as long as the other party is not stupid, he would not dare to confront Heiyun Group and Bao Zixuan.

After hearing the appointment, Vincent Bentley was very excited. At the same time, I also know that I bet right, at least the management rights of Bentley Motors will return to the Bentley family on the surface. This is a kind of progress, at least an explanation for the family members.

Then I introduced several management personnel transferred from the headquarters to everyone, of course, mainly financial personnel. In fact, this is normal, after all, it is not realistic to send anyone. Financial entry is normal, including Vincent Bentley, who can't fault it.

So far, the acquisition of Bentley Motors has come to an end. Heiyun Group acquired 97% of Bentley Motors and completed the absolute control of the brand. As for Rolls-Royce, it has obtained valuable funds to continue the life of the parent company for a long time. Of course, in the case that the shareholders do not pay dividends, but those have nothing to do with Bao Zixuan, and they will be cleaned up sooner or later.
