Chapter 480 Two-level reversal on the eve of the war (7K chapter, please subscribe~)

  Michigan, Dearborn, Hilton Hotel!

  In the middle of the night, Chu Huan and his group came here by car, because the Ford Motor shareholders meeting will be held here tomorrow, so as the most luxurious Hilton Hotel in the city, many shareholders of Ford Motor are staying at this time.

   Just as Chu Huan entered the lobby of the hotel, a middle-aged Caucasian male walked up to him.

   "Director Chu, welcome to Dearborn!"

  The other party's enthusiastic appearance made Chu Huan think that he should know him, and the two should be good friends.

   But in fact, Chu Huan had never met the other party.

   "This is Davis, the general manager of MUFO Securities!"

   It doesn't matter if Chu Huan doesn't know him, as long as he knows George Roberts next to him.

David Maxwell, Jerry Kohlberg and others will stay in New York to continue to complete Chu Huan's plan, so this time following Chu Huan to Dearborn are George Roberts of KKR and Jiang Zishan of North American League. people.

   Even Cao Yunshang stayed in New York.

   "Hello, Manager Davis!" Chu Huan shook hands with the other party politely!

   "Mr. Chu, we at MUFO Securities have some ideas about the shares of Ford Motor. We very much hope to have a good discussion with Mr. Chu as soon as possible!"

  Davis couldn't wait to preach.

David Maxwell's interview on TV this afternoon has already spread. When David Maxwell revealed the loss of Ford Motor, everyone understood that even with the acquisition of North America, As soon as the market opens tomorrow, Ford Motor's stock price will be down by at least half.

  So the first to react, or the first to be unable to accept such a loss, must be those securities companies.

  Davis of MUFO Securities is one of the most distinctive representatives.

  Chu Huan looked at the time and said with a smile: "I'm very sorry, we just arrived in Dearborn, we didn't take a good rest on the way, and now we want to take a good rest."

   "Director Chu, we won't take long, trust me!" Davis hurriedly said.

   Seeing this, Chu Huan could only laugh and said, "Okay, but the result may not make Davis so happy!"

   It doesn't matter whether you are happy or not, the most important thing is to sell your Ford Motor shares as soon as possible, otherwise, it will really be over.

  The two came to the hotel's coffee shop and sat down.

   "Mr. Chu, we know that you are buying the shares of Ford Motors now, and we also understand Mr. Chu's love for Ford Motors. Therefore, we at MUFO Securities, after discussion, are very willing to sell our shares of Ford Motors to you!"

  Davis couldn't wait to preach as soon as Chu Huan sat down.

  Where did Chu Huan lean, and asked noncommittally: "I don't know what price MUFO is going to ask for?"

  Davis hurriedly said: "$1.75 per share, as long as Chu you agree, I can now sign a contract with Chu on behalf of MUFO!"

   "Sorry, I have other things to do, so I'm leaving first!" Chu Huan got up and was about to leave.

The stock price of Ford Motor was at $1.8 per share at the close of trading on Friday. Now, when MUFO knows that the price of Ford Motor is likely to fall below $1 per share at the opening of the market on Monday, it even asks itself for $1.75 per share. It is to treat people as fools to operate!

   "Wait, wait, wait!" Davis hurriedly stood up and stopped Chu Huan, with an anxious expression on his face.

   "Mr. Chu, if you are not satisfied with the price, we can discuss it. You have to believe that this time, MUFO came here with great sincerity!"

  Chu Huan looked at Davis who was standing in front of him, and said calmly: "At the price of 1 dollar per share, I can charge as much as your company has. If it exceeds this price, I'm sorry!"

"What?" Davis didn't expect Chu Huan to directly lower the price of US$1 per share, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Chu, this price is absolutely impossible. I believe you also need our MUFO in Ford Motor Co., Ltd." stocks, otherwise you will not be able to defeat the Ford family at the shareholders meeting!"

  Why both the Ford family and Zheng Zhouyong of the Hyundai Group are sure that Chu Huan's attack on Ford this time will be a lost result.

  Because the two sides have different starting points!

At the beginning, the Ford family owned 40% of the decision-making power of Ford Motor, while Chu Huan had 0%. Generally speaking, it is only 15% of the voting rights, which is still far from the Ford family.

At this time, Davis of MUFO Securities actually thought the same way. It is certain that Ford Motor’s stock price will break the bone, but as long as you, Chu Huan, want to get the right to speak in Ford Motor, you must ensure that you have more Ford in your hands. A shares of automobiles.

   This is why Davis dared to ask Chu Huan for $1.75 per share!

Chu Huan smiled and said: "Although I really want to get a Ford car, it doesn't mean that I want to be taken advantage of. As far as I know, the stock of Ford Motor is a very important asset of MUFO Securities. If the stock of Ford Motor in MUFO's hands falls If it is serious, it may cause a devastating blow to the entire MUFO!"

   Different people have different problems.

  MUFO Securities is one of the important shareholders of Ford Motor, and Chu Huan naturally has some understanding of this securities company.

  MUFO Securities is not a big securities company, but a securities company located in Detroit. It is more dominated by industrial stocks in Detroit, and the most important one is the shares of Ford Motor.

  If the stock price of Ford Motor is broken, and the stock is rotten in the hands of MUFO Securities, no one will take over.

  As Chu Huan said, MUFO is likely to face bankruptcy.

   "Since Manager Davis is so confident, let's wait and see. Sorry, I still have things to do!" After speaking, Chu Huan turned sideways to bypass Davis.

   "$1.2 per share, this is the bottom line of our MUFO, if you can accept it, we can sign the contract now!"

  Davis gritted his teeth and preached.

  Chu Huan shook his head and said, "It's up to $1.1, and even a penny more is impossible!"

"Can!"

Davis actually didn’t have any choice. At this time, only Chu Huan or the Ford family could take over Ford in North America. Today, it’s not that Davis hasn’t gone to the Ford family, but William Ford, who is in charge of receiving him, has a serious attitude. Much better than Chu Huan.

  But William Ford just kept himself calm, saying that the temporary stock price of Ford Motors does not represent anything, and the stock price of Ford Motors will definitely rise in the future.

The Ford family has a big business and can wait, but Davis can't wait. The shares of Ford Motor held by their securities company are mortgaged by the bank. As long as there is a situation of insolvency, the bank will definitely sell Ford without mercy. If their stocks are sold, their losses will only be greater at that time!

  Jiang Zishan signed a stock trading contract with MUFO Securities on behalf of North America Jiaku.

  It’s only ten minutes.

  Chu Huan came to the elevator of the hotel at this time, the elevator opened, Zheng Shiyong, Zheng Mengxian, two uncles and nephews were in the elevator, and saw Chu Huan outside.

Zheng Shiyong, Zheng Mengxian's two uncles and nephews have never seen Chu Huan in person, but they have seen Chu Huan's photos, although the image is still very vague, but at this point in time, in this place, they saw an Asian with so many people around him As a man, they can already be sure that the person in front of them is Chu Huan.

   Sparks burst out of the eyes of the two uncles and nephews, but it was obvious that they were deliberately suppressing the anger in their hearts.

   "Chu Huan, let's have a good chat?"

  Even though Zheng Shiyong was trying to suppress his anger, what he said at this time still seemed very blunt.

  Although Chu Huan has never seen this pair of uncles and nephews, Chu Huan has seen their photos before. As for the photos, they were taken by Ma Jizu's people. Chu Huan has always attached great importance to his enemies.

"No time!"

  Even though Chu Huan recognized them, he didn't intend to talk to them. Before the Ford matter was resolved, Chu Huan didn't plan to have any conversation with the Zheng family.

  Chu Huan didn't want to talk to them, but they had to talk to Chu Huan.

  About David Maxwell's interview video on TV today, they have sent it back to South Korea, but it has not arrived in South Korea at this time, so the two had to select the key points of David Maxwell's speech to Zheng Zhouyong on the phone.

   After Zheng Zhouyong found out what happened, all the good mood he had accumulated in the past few days disappeared, and he almost got into the phone line and teleported to Michigan to find Chu Huan for a live PK.

But Zheng Zhouyong also knew that this was impossible, so he gave Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian a death order. Before the start of the Ford Motor shareholders meeting, he must see Chu Huan. He wanted to have a good chat with Chu Huan on the phone. , He wants to let Chu Huan know that Zheng Zhouyong is not so easy to bully!

  But now Chu Huan doesn't plan to give them this time at all.

   Seeing that Chu Huan was about to leave without even talking about it, Zheng Shiyong immediately said: "Don't you really want the South Korean market?"

  Chu Huan had already walked into the elevator at this time, and said with a smile: "I think the South Korean market will be delivered to me after tomorrow, and your chairman will personally deliver it to me!"

   After finishing speaking, Chu Huan looked at the elevator button and said, "Now I'm going upstairs to rest. Are you going back to your own floor, or going out?"

   It is impossible for Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian to leave. They have not yet completed the task assigned by Zheng Zhouyong.

   "Chu Huan, if you want to regain the South Korean market, you must make a phone call with our president today, otherwise, I guarantee that your Jiaku department will lose the South Korean market forever!"

  Jung Se Young wants to show his strength.

  Chu Huan looked at his appearance, just smiled softly, and asked Qin Peng and others to press the button on the top floor.

  In the elevator, Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian continued to analyze the current situation with Chu Huan in the elevator instead of their own floors.

   "Chu Huan, the South Korean market is one of the most important markets in Asia, are you really willing to give up the South Korean market?" Zheng Mengxian stood there, speaking urgently.

"The South Korean market is indeed very important, but as Hyundai Group thought before, you can do without Xiangjiang's market, but I cannot live without South Korean market. The current situation is that I can give up the South Korean market, but you Hyundai Group can give up Is it the car market?"

  Any negotiation, in the final analysis, is actually the needs of the negotiating parties. Whoever has the most urgent needs will fall behind.

Before that, Hyundai Group and Chu Huan’s Jiaku Department had no rigid demand for the Xiangjiang market, while Chu Huan’s Jiaku Department already had the South Korean market and was targeted, so Chu Huan’s side was more the demand side.

   Now it's different.

  David Maxwell’s interview almost forcibly fast-forwarded Chu Huan’s acquisition of Ford Motor stock to the end.

   Judging from the current situation, regardless of whether Chu Huan may acquire Ford Motor in the end, the cooperation between Ford Motor and Hyundai Motor is bound to lead to a situation that Hyundai Motor cannot control.

  For the sake of Hyundai Motor and the Hyundai Group, the Zheng family must have a direct interview with Chu Huan at this time!

  Chu Huan, who had the upper hand at this time, naturally couldn't let the Zheng family go so easily, so no matter what Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian said, Chu Huan did not agree to their conference call with Zheng Zhouyong.

  The two even followed Chu Huan to the door of Chu Huan's room.

   But here stood a white male in a black suit.

   "Mr. Chu, hello, I am Daniel Ford of the Ford family, and now our Ford family sincerely invites you to visit the Ford Manor!"

  Daniel Ford, a collateral branch of the Ford family, but he is also a member of the Ford family anyway.

   This was the first time that Chu Huan met members of the Ford family after he acquired the shares of Ford Motor.

   Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian saw that even the members of the Ford family came, and the expressions on their faces became more and more ugly. The appearance of the Ford family at this time has actually indicated the meaning of the Ford family.

  They may still have more in-depth and complicated negotiations with Chu Huan, but Hyundai Motor will definitely become one of the most important bargaining chips, and it may be sacrificed by the Ford family.

  Thinking of the possible outcome, the two of them couldn't help but start to sweat nervously.

   "I just got off the plane. If people from the Ford family want to see me, they can come to the hotel, and I won't bother!"

  Chu Huan did not agree to go to the Ford Manor. Now his side has begun to gain an advantage, but in fact the advantage is not so obvious, so Chu Huan needs to occupy more psychological advantages.

  Daniel Ford's complexion changed slightly. He didn't expect that he would come to invite Chu Huan himself, and Chu Huan was even sure about it.

   "Mr. Chu, we admit that David's interview this afternoon gave you a slight advantage, but the matter has not come to the end, and we still don't know who will win and who will lose!"

  Chu Huan glanced at Daniel Ford indifferently, and said calmly: "Your status in the Ford family is not enough to say these things to me!"

  After speaking, Chu Huan gestured to Jiang Zishan with his eyes, and Jiang Zishan took out a kraft paper bag from his briefcase and handed it to Daniel Ford!

   "Send this document to Ford II. If he has come back from Switzerland now, I think someone from your Ford family will definitely come to the hotel!"

  After speaking, Chu Huan walked directly into the room.

   Zheng Shiyong standing at the door, Zheng Mengxian looked hopefully at the kraft paper bag in Daniel Ford's hand, hoping to know the contents inside.

   But it was obvious that Daniel Ford didn't hear what the two of them were saying, and left directly with a slightly gloomy expression.

  Seeing that Chu Huan closed the door, and the bodyguards standing at the door, Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian, looked at each other and left immediately. They wanted to return to their room and tell Zheng Zhouyong what happened just now.

   Zheng Zhouyong, who had been waiting in front of the phone, answered the phone immediately after the phone rang.

   Zheng Zhouyong, who is so urgent, has not appeared for a long time.

  Before this, Zheng Zhouyong was still thinking about how to get more benefits from Chu Huan, as if everything had been settled.

   As a result, just an exclusive interview shattered all my previous fantasies, and the current self is simply extremely passive!

   What frightened Zheng Zhouyong the most was that when things got to this point, Zheng Zhouyong discovered an important problem.

  During the development of this matter, Hyundai Group's thinking, its own thinking, actually had no influence on Chu Huan or the Ford family.

  I am just a **** in the game between them, and a **** that can be given up at any time!

   This was a deep sense of powerlessness, which made Zheng Zhouyong even a little out of breath in these few hours.

   "How's the situation? Is Chu Huan in your room?"

  After picking up the phone, Zheng Zhouyong asked immediately.

   Zheng Shiyong, who was holding the phone, looked a little embarrassed, and said: "Chu Huan does not agree to the conversation with you, and"

   There is no nonsense, Zheng Shiyong will just talk to Chu Huan, the appearance of Daniel Ford, and the information that Chu Huan gave to Daniel Ford.

   After Zheng Zhouyong finished listening, his right hand holding the phone burst out with blue veins.

Now the relationship between the two parties has completely changed. Although I don’t know what information is in the brown paper bag that Chu Huan handed to Daniel Ford, but Chu Huan’s firm attitude shows that this bag of information must be is very important.

  Now any information that I don't know may lead the whole thing to a situation that is even more unfavorable to me.

   "Give the phone to Mengxian!"

   Zheng Zhouyong held the phone and preached in a cold voice.

   Zheng Shiyong didn't dare to disobey Zheng Zhouyong's order at this moment, and hurriedly handed the phone in his hand to Zheng Mengxian.

   "You contact Bill Ford immediately, we want to know the specific views of the Ford family on this matter!"

   This is already the only thing Zheng Zhouyong can do, and now, the whole thing has long been out of his control.

   Zheng Mengxian also knew the seriousness of the matter, and hurriedly said: "Okay!"

.

  Daniel Ford drove back to Ford Manor.

   Ford II has not rushed back from Switzerland, so William Ford is still in charge of this matter at this time.

At this moment, William Ford's expression is so gloomy that water can drip out. This afternoon, David Maxwell pointed out the loss of Ford Motor due to Continental Motors. Although he did not point out that he was the person in charge of this matter, he knew about it. Everyone knows that they are responsible.

   Originally, Ford Motor’s board of directors had been discussing the matter of clearing itself out of Ford Motor’s management. Now that this incident happened again, William Ford seemed to have seen the scene after he left Ford Motor.

   "Where's Chu Huan?"

  Seeing Daniel Ford coming back alone, William Ford asked in a deep voice.

  Daniel Ford said embarrassingly: "Chu Huan didn't come over, he meant to let the elder brother go to see him in person!"

  Daniel Ford is Ford II's cousin.

  Too arrogant!

Bill Ford on the side snorted coldly in his heart. Before his father publicly announced that he would go to Switzerland, now Chu Huan actually asked his father to meet him in person. Govern his body.

  If this is the case, the face of the Ford family will be lost!

   "Second uncle, not only can my father not go to see Chu Huan, but if possible, he can't show up at tomorrow's shareholder meeting!"

  Bill Ford preached.

  Although Ford II has rushed back from Switzerland, Bill Ford still does not want his father to appear at the Ford Motor shareholders meeting tomorrow.

   It's too slap in the face!

  William Ford sighed, and said: "I will die if I don't come back!"

  David Maxwell’s interview on TV today, William Ford has also notified Ford II by phone, and Ford II immediately understood the seriousness of the matter.

   But there were no flights back to North America from Switzerland at that time. In order to be able to come back as soon as possible, Ford II contacted a private jet to come back.

   From the attitude of Ford II returning to North America, we can see the seriousness of this matter.

  If there is no Ford II in tomorrow's general meeting of shareholders, Chu Huan will definitely be able to join the board of directors, which is also a face-slap, and this is the best solution.

As soon as the North American stock market opens tomorrow, the stock price of Ford Motor will definitely break down. At that time, there will definitely be a wave of sell-offs in Ford Motor stock. If Chu Huan really has enough funds to support it, then by then Chu Huan Will continue to take over the shares of Ford Motor.

   Relatively speaking, Chu Huan's right to speak must be getting more and more important. If you add those shareholders who have always been dissatisfied with the AB shares that the Ford family pursues, Ford Motor may really change hands!

   This is the worst possible outcome!

  The Ford family is absolutely not allowed to happen!

   So Ford II must return to Michigan this evening.

  Before they left, they did not believe that Chu Huan had the ability to cause fundamental damage to Ford Motor. Now they came back because they found that their previous ideas no longer corresponded to the current actual situation.

  Bill Ford's complexion also became gloomy. He never thought that their Ford family would be forced to this point by a rich man from Xiangjiang one day!

   Let his father act in a slap in the face.

   "What about the shareholders who previously chose to side with us?"

   Bill Ford asked William Ford.

  The key point of all issues now is actually the distribution of shares in Ford Motor. If the shareholders who were on their side before still choose to be on the same front with them, then the situation has not reached the most dangerous level.

  How could William Ford not know this, and said in a deep voice: "I have contacted those shareholders before, but now their attitude"

  The attitude of these shareholders to support the Ford family was very firm before.

  But now the attitude has begun to become ambiguous.

   On the surface, they still expressed their support, but in terms of tone, they have already taken a deliberative attitude, and some people have even begun to negotiate conditions.

  The reality is such a reality that the impenetrable fortress that the Ford family has built through decades is starting to show cracks.

   While the two uncles and nephews were discussing countermeasures, a servant from the family came and said they had a call for Bill Ford.

   "Who is it?" Bill Ford wondered if anyone was looking for him at this point.

  Humanly said: "The other party said that he is Zheng Mongxian of Hyundai Group!"

  Hearing that it was Chung Mong-heon, Bill Ford showed a disgusted expression. The source of everything was because of the Hyundai Group. If it wasn't because of the Hyundai Group, things would not have developed to this point.

   "Let's answer it. Our family hasn't lost at this time, so we can't make our partners panic." William Ford said in a deep voice.

  Bill Ford had no choice but to nod, and asked at the same time.

   "If the other party asks about our attitude on Chu Huan's side? How should I answer?"

   "Let's say that our Ford family will always treat our partners with sincerity. Chu Huan's problem is just a small problem, and it will not affect our cooperation between Ford Motor and Hyundai Motor!"

  William Ford preached indifferently.

  Bill Ford nodded. They themselves knew that such an answer was just a superficial answer, but as long as they could bluff their partners, it would be fine.

   After Bill Ford left, William Ford opened the brown paper bag that Daniel Ford had brought back.

  When he saw the content above, his face changed from gloomy to pale, just like the expression he had when he saw David Maxwell's interview before.

  William Ford, who was shaking, hurried to the phone and dialed the number of Ford II's private plane.

   "Tonight, I don't think you need to think about resting. If my prediction is correct, people from the Ford family will be here in a while!"

  In the private room of Chu Huan in the Hilton Hotel, Chu Huan smiled and preached to Jiang Zishan and George Roberts in the living room.

  Jiang Zishan and George Roberts knew Chu Huan's plan, so they naturally understood that what Chu Huan said was correct.

  Especially George Roberts looked at Chu Huan with a very complicated expression at this time, but the main expression was still admiration.

  Since the Ford family started the policy of exercising AB shares in Ford Motor, Ford Motor has been known as the most difficult fortress in North America.

   But now, Chu Huan is very likely to break through this fortress. If it weren't for Chu Huan's identity as a Chinese, at that moment, George Roberts would even think that in the end, Chu Huan could really win the Ford.

  Three people, a bottle of whiskey, a few side dishes, just chatting like this, waiting for the fish to get the bait.

  When it was getting light, someone knocked on the door of Chu Huan's room.

  Jiang Zishan went to open the door, Ford II, two brothers William Ford stood at the door

   Also, Huangshan continues to code words~·
