Hollande, Morse and Jonathan set off for London together. On the plane, the three of them started chatting.

"I suddenly look forward to the acquisition of the entire Ritz-Carlton Hotel and the naming rights in the future!" Jonas said excitedly.

After hearing this, Hollande and Morse couldn't help but be curious about Jonas's topic!

"Hey, how did you know that the boss will acquire the entire Ritz Hotel and the naming rights?" Hollande asked curiously.

"This is inevitable. The Ritz Hotel in Europe is in the hands of the Ritz family, but they are only willing to stick to the three time-honored Ritz Hotels; similarly, the Ritz Hotel in America is in the hands of A·K, but they only have two Ritz Hotels, and the rest are distributed in the hands of five companies. These people have no financial resources and ability to carry forward the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, and only the boss has this strength. If you don't believe it, we can bet!"

Hollande and Morse shook their heads after hearing this. The fool bet with you. After you said this, do you still have the ambitions of your boss?

When they arrived in London, the three of them did not come directly because Wu Guangyao entrusted the vice president of the bullying brothers in London's commercial banks as a lobbyist.

For transactions like this, people usually find a bank as a lobbyist!

Wu Guangyao is naturally no exception. Besides, some consortiums in London have cooperated more or less, so they naturally have to make good use of them.

It was precisely because of the bullying bank as the guide that the trio successfully met Tony Scott, the head of the Tony family.

"The world's ship king will even like a small department store?" When Tony heard that Wu Guangyao was going to acquire his shares, he was immediately overjoyed. Kaizi was delivered to his door!

When Jonas saw Tony's appearance, he knew that the boss might have to spend more money!

The boss is too famous, and others will definitely not miss this opportunity to have a high price;

Of course, Jonas also has the bottom-line price given by Wu Guangyao. If the agreement cannot be reached, give up and let Baiyou Group set up its own department store.

"Mr. Tony, have you seen the business status of Lane Crawford?" Jonas said casually.

"No need to look at it. Judging from the annual dividends, the business is very good!" Tony did not give Jonas the opportunity to belittle Lane Crawford, so as not to be suppressed later.

"That's really lucky. The two major shareholders are having a big fight and can still manage so well!"

When Tony heard this, he immediately understood what Jonas meant, and he remained silent, neither affirmed nor denied.

"How many shares are Mr. Tony has in his hands?" Jonas continued.

Tony asked without answering, "How much do you plan to buy the entire Lane Crawford?"

“1.6 million pounds!”

"Mr. Jonas, you guys are really good at joking!"

"Mr. Tony, this is what our boss told me. Department stores are not difficult to operate. If the price is too high, you can set up your own department store!"

"A department store with a century-old brand and good reputation is not that easy to own!"

"It is precisely because of this that we give £1.6 million. Of course, if Mr. Tony has more than 20%, we can add it!"

"For 25% of the shares, then pay a sincere price!"

“420,000 pounds!”

Tony shouted directly: "600,000 pounds, you can sign the agreement immediately if you need it!"

The trio was stunned. This guy was so arrogant!

Jonathan said helplessly: "Mr. Tony, if we sign a £600,000 agreement with you, the three of us may have lost our jobs! Dissatisfied with you, the bottom line given by the boss is £430,000. If you sincerely want to sell your shares, we will trade for £430,000."

Afterwards, Tony bit the 550,000 pounds tightly and refused to let go. The trio left a phone call and shook his head and left.

If you encounter such a person who is so stupid and requires money, no matter how good the negotiation expert is, it is useless!

.........

Wu Guangyao was also stunned after receiving the news from the trio!

Unexpectedly, I was treated like a Kaizi. The 25% pound of 550,000 pounds, Lane Crawford shares were at a premium of 25%!

Jonas in London gave Wu Guangyao a suggestion, which was to contact Charlie, the second shareholder of Lane Crawford;

Because everyone already knows that even the so-called major shareholder of Crawford only has 25% of the shares, which means that the major shareholder is not that important.

Wu Guangyao also felt that this was the case and decided to meet Charlie himself to see if he was willing to quit!

The Ritz-Carlton Hotel

Wu Kuanyao and Charlie looked at each other. Although Charlie was a British, he was not very famous in Hong Kong and could only be considered a small fish and shrimp!

Charlie was a little curious, what did this Chinese rich man do for him?

"Mr. Charlie, what do you think of the Ritz Hotel?"

"The luxury and service of the Ritz Hotel is no worse than that of the Peninsula Hotel. It is like confirming the saying "Serve gentlemen and ladies with a gentleman's attitude" I think you have learned the essence!"

"Thanks to Mr. Charlie for the compliment!"

"Mr. Wu invited me to have a banquet this time. Is there anything wrong?"

Wu Guangyao nodded and said, "Why didn't Mr. Charlie directly acquire shares in the hands of the other shareholders of Lane Crawford? So you can naturally become the head of Lane Crawford?"

When Charlie heard this, he immediately guessed Wu Guangyao's purpose of inviting him!

Charlie immediately felt a sense of sadness when he plotted against Lian Carver!

I have been fighting for Lane Crawford for many years, but I still can't compete for Freddy, who has fewer shares than me. Unexpectedly, this Chinese businessman has come to make a decision again!

Naturally, Charlie would not tell Wu Guangyao that it was not that he did not want to buy shares of these small shareholders, but because he was afraid that these small shareholders would take the opportunity to get a high price.

To truly control Lane Crawford, Charlie must at least turn his shares to 51%, while he only has 20%; he must basically take over most of the shares in the hands of small shareholders.

In this way, it would be strange if you don’t get slaughtered!

"Mr. Wu wants to acquire Lane Crawford?" Charlie asked back.

Wu Guangyao said generously: "Of course, it is my honor to be able to stay in Hong Kong No. 1 Department Store! Mr. Charlie, I think you have been fighting for so many years. Since there is no hope, why should you stay at Lane Crawford and be angry? You sell the shares to me and I'll try it!"

Charlie fell into thinking and fell into a very temptation!

For so many years, I have been working under the opponent of Freddy. I am really tired and might as well take some money and invest in other industries.

Charlie looked up, his eyes full of determination, and said, "How much does Mr. Wu plan to give to 20% of the shares of Lane Crawford?"

"HKD 5.6 million!" Wu Guangyao said generously.

“HKD 6 million!”

“HKD 5.8 million!”

"make a deal!"

Although it was 200,000 Hong Kong dollars more than expected, Wu Guangyao felt very happy!

The trio complained that Tony was also a greedy and stubborn person and it was difficult to make a deal.

Wu Guangyao naturally believed their words, so he felt that although Charlie asked for more than HK$200,000, he was in a good mood!
Chapter completed!
