The area of this study is much larger than the one on the third floor in Su City. The entire study covers an area of thirty square meters, which is larger than the living room of an ordinary family.
There is a tea table and tea sets in the study, but they have not been used for a long time. After Zhang Qizheng called, Su Cheng specially asked the servants to wash all the tea sets here and prepare boiling water.
Before Su Cheng started making tea, Zhang Qizheng took out a pile of information from his bag and handed it to Su Cheng, and then he made tea himself.
Su Cheng didn’t say much, took the information and started reading it.
In the information, Zhang Qizheng also thoughtfully listed a catalog for Su Cheng on the first page. Each page has a page number so that Su Cheng can quickly find the car brand he wants to know about.
"Volkswagen, BMW, Rover, Mercedes-Benz, Jaguar, Audi, Ford, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, Buick, Chevrolet, Porsche, Lamborghini, Maserati, Rolls-Royce, Cadillac, Fiat, Costa, Peugeot, McLaren, Ferrari , Bentley, MG, Mazda, etc.”
There are more than 300 car brands listed here, including mainstream car brands around the world. It’s no wonder that Zhang Qizheng also investigated even with Brother Wu’s help. It took several days.
There was too much information, and Su Cheng couldn’t read much at that moment, so he simply put the information aside.
Although there are many brands, Su City has no plans to consider acquiring Japanese brands.
Nowadays, although Japanese brands are losing ground to Western car brands in the global market, their success is ultimately based on low prices to expand the market, not on technology. occupy the market.
Excluding Japanese brands, the entire information book will be reduced by more than twenty in an instant.
Despite this, in the information booklet that lists more than 300 brands, the lack of more than 20 brands is almost nothing.
"Uncle Zhang, you have personally investigated and consolidated the information in the past few days, and you should have a deeper understanding of this, right? There is too much information, and it will take a lot of time to read it all!" Su Cheng said with a smile.
“Boss, don’t worry about this. You’ve seen the catalog, right? I’ve marked some car brands. These marked brands are all currently poorly managed or controlled. There are more than fifty brands that have encountered financial problems. If you, the boss, are unwilling to read them from beginning to end, just reading the circled information can save you a lot of time," Zhang Qizheng said.
Su Cheng nodded. No wonder some brands were specially circled in front. He was a little confused just now, but now he understands.
"You have worked hard these days. You have to manage Tianyuan Investment Company and help me organize information." Su Cheng said.
"This is nothing, and we have Brother Wu's assistance, but it is more time-consuming. Compared with managing Zhonghua Bus, this is much easier." Zhang Qizheng said with a smile.
Su Cheng nodded, picked up the information again, and looked at the circled brand in the catalog.
MG, Rover, Jaguar, MINI, Land Rover, Triumph, Land Rover, Leyland, Daimler, Austin Hurley, Morris and more.
Su Cheng was surprised to find that he actually knew most of the car brands that were mentioned in the circle, and even thirty or forty years later, they were still internationally famous car brands. There are only a few brands that I have never heard of.
Moreover, most of these car brands have a very long history, ranging from forty to fifty years to hundreds of years. It can be seen that even if it is a well-known brand, its development path is very bumpy, and it will not develop smoothly just because it is famous enough.
Zhang Qizheng made tea and poured a cup for his boss and himself.
Su Cheng looked at the information and unconsciously drank the tea that Zhang Qizheng poured for him in one gulp.
Zhang Qizheng poured a cup of tea for Su Cheng again. Seeing that his boss was fascinated, he smiled and said: "Boss, I suggest you focus on Leland Automobile Group."
"Oh? Why."
Leyland Motors Sioux City naturally knows that, among other things, there are many Leyland Motors on the streets of Xiangjiang. Not only that, even the buses under China Bus Many are from Leyland Motors' bus brand.
“Do you know the development history of British cars?” Zhang Qizheng asked.
Su Cheng shook his head and said: "I don't know much about it. I only know that there are many famous car brands in the UK, such as Rolls-Royce, Land Rover, Jaguar, Aston Martin, etc."
"Although the history of British automobile development is glorious, it is also very bumpy. In the 1960s, in order to survive the downturn in the automobile market, the major British automobile brands began to unite to warm up, forming today's British Leyland Motors The group, now owned by Leyland Group, owns more than 30 cars including MG, Rover, Jaguar, MINI, Land Rover, Triumph, Land Rover, Leyland, Daimler, Austin Hurley, Morris, etc. Brand.
In the early days of the merger, Leyland Automobile Group did have brilliant achievements, but the beginning was the peak. A few years after the merger, Leland Automobile Group continued to decline, losing money every year. If the British government had not continued to provide subsidies to them , I can no longer hold on for a long time.
According to the information we have investigated, the board of directors of Leyland Automobile Group is now divided into two factions. One faction belongs to the radical faction, which hopes to sell some of its car brands with poor sales, hoping that this can reduce losses and allow the group to use them. More funds are used to develop key car brands; one group is conservative and hopes to maintain the current development. They firmly believe that darkness will always be temporary and sunshine will appear sooner or later.
The two factions have been fighting for a long time, especially after the new Prime Minister Iron Lady took office, the advantages of the radical faction began to increase greatly, so if you, boss, want to take action, go to British Cars, The opportunities are very large, and there are many choices of brands. The technology of British cars is also strong enough. Taking into account the respective conditions, I suggest that you, boss, focus on the car brands of Leyland Automobile Group. ”
Zhang Qizheng briefly explained the development of Leland Automobile Group to Su Cheng, and also explained the reasons for the focus.
After listening, Su Cheng nodded, If it is true as Zhang Qizheng said, then the brands of Leland Automobile Group are indeed his first choice.
With Xiao Ai's help, it would be easy for him to distinguish the authenticity of these information.
As expected, Xiao Ai quickly found out some information that Su City needed.
As Zhang Qizheng said, the things he said are basically confirmed.
Moreover, Su Cheng is quite familiar with the Iron Lady. After all, she is a character who has entered history books. In China, as long as people who have read books, there are not many people who do not know her. (End of this chapter)
