"Well, I'll give you the latest information about Zucker Wald. Now everyone goes to the restaurant. After all, I can't make you hungry, can I?" Felix Luca laughs.
Wen Yan, a group of Adidas team members, nodded together and showed a smile.
Felix Luca is the most senior vice president of Adidas. He pursues the wolf rule and high pressure policy, which really puts a lot of pressure on his team. But... With Luca, they make several times more money than before.
Money, incomparably attractive!
They are well aware that once they successfully acquire andema sporting goods company, or participate in andema, they will be regarded as accomplishing the set goal, and they will get rich bonus at that time.
"This trip is sure to be successful!"
"Yes, guys, don't forget our head, but Felix Luca has great business negotiation ability!"
"In March 2000, when we first went to Italy with head and started the acquisition of blood clam (a local sporting goods brand in Italy), head finished everything in just five days."
"Ha ha ha, anyway, the bonus will not be less this time."
"KrO, don't be too careless. After all, our goal this time is, but this super rich guy, Zucker Wald, has a lot of money!"
.......
While talking and laughing, Luca and his team have arrived at the hotel restaurant from the hotel suite under the guidance of the waiters.
The arrival of more than a dozen people did not attract the attention of other customers in the restaurant. After all, most of the people who can check in and eat in the Baltimore Central Hotel are social elites, who are used to big waves.
However
Mark Parker, senior vice president of Nike headquarters, the future CEO of Nike sports Kingdom, is also staying and dining here.
What's more, Mark Parker's table is next to Felix Luca's.
Mark Parker: "the..."
Felix Luca
Two people are in a trance between is a burst of consternation, this NIMA too coincidental.
For a moment, the dinner seemed so strange that both teams of Nike and Adidas were silent.
Not only that, Parker and Luca had a confrontation before.
In 1998, Parker, on behalf of Nike team, started the acquisition of Poland's sports brand utrw. However, just as the contract was about to be concluded, Luca personally led the adidas team.
Step in!
Luca's great efforts directly destroyed the acquisition of Nike;
But Nike's Parker is not a vegetarian either. In the end, both Adidas and Nike failed to acquire utrw. Both sides ended up in failure and were acquired by puma sporting goods, a third-party company.
Since then, the two have been feuding.
........
Hotel Suite - Nike team.
"Damn it
"It never occurred to me that Luca, the damned guy, should come to Baltimore!"
"What did he come for?"
"From what I know about Adidas and Luca, they're 100% for andrma!"
Mark Parker was so angry that his face was full of uncertainty. But for his student, Smith Joe, who had to worry about his image, his anger would have erupted.
Smith Joe's face is not good: "teacher, I think you are right, Adidas is for andrma and Zucker Wald, either acquisition, or equity participation. Of course, the ultimate goal is to make trouble for Nike! "
Nike and Adidas are both sports brand giants. Even though they have tens of thousands of sporting goods companies around the world, they are nothing between them.
Even puma, the sports Kingdom, can't be compared with them at all!
Nike and Adidas have a long history of enmity;
Well, Pepsi and Coca Cola, too.
"No! I can't let andrma fall into the arms of Adidas
After a short silence, Parker made a decision: "Smith, you immediately arrange a remote video call. I'll talk to the chairman and Mr. Rito, and we'll join in the acquisition of andromer."
"Yes
Smith Jordan nodded his head like a pound of garlic.
After a short time, the remote video call is on.
One by one, Nike shareholders and the top management of the company have appeared in the computer screen.
CEO Lito: "Parker, we will consider your suggestion as soon as possible and give you the result in three days."
This sentence has been agreed by many shareholders and their representatives.
Acquisition, at least to have a more in-depth understanding of andema, otherwise how to acquire it?
Marion, one of the shareholders' representatives, echoed: "Mr. Rito is right. We will consider it as soon as possible. But, Parker, you can't be idle. You can get involved first, and add a little jam to Adidas. "
"Ha ha ha ~"
Hearing this, Mark Parker laughed and said, "don't worry, everyone. I dare not say anything else. I'm good at blocking Adidas. Felix Luca, I've been trying to settle with him for a long time. This time, nothing can make him proud
.......
Hotel Suite - adidas team.
"This pool of water will soon be muddy. I'm 100% sure that Nike's team will join in the acquisition of Adema! "
Senior vice president Luca's face, now extremely ugly, but at the same time full of determination.
Other Adidas members present also nodded their heads.
What can be predicted is that the acquisition or share purchase will not be so smooth.
.......
The next day.
In the morning, the adidas team, who came all the way from Germany, directly sent a notification letter to adelma company;
In the afternoon, Felix Luca led the team to Andromeda.
Luca: "Mr. Planck, the purpose of my coming here is very clear, that is to open an acquisition case on behalf of adidas Group for your company, andema sporting goods company. You don't have to worry. The price we offer is US $140 million, which is far more than the market price and is US $40 million. "
Kevin Planck admitted that he was moved, but he still shook his head very firmly: "Mr. Luca, thank adidas Group for their attention to our Andromeda, but I won't agree. Believe me, even my boss, Mr. Zucker Wald, he won't agree
If before Zhuke arrived in Baltimore, Planck would sell his shares of andromer to Adidas.
But what did Zucker say?
It's time to buy an NBA team!
He is very clear that Zhuke will start the pan sports program, which is definitely a big project, and andrma's future is very bright. Why should he accept the acquisition and destroy the Great Wall?
Luca is not angry, where can the acquisition be achieved overnight?
But he was a little worried! Once Nike gets involved, the price they have to pay is bound to be higher.
"Mr. Planck, I'd like to see Mr. ward. I wonder if you'd like to arrange it?" Luca said suddenly.
Kevin Planck laughed and agreed directly.
$140 million?
He believed that Zucker would not take the money too seriously.
Luca is also very clear about this. However, he certainly has his own wording and a certain degree of confidence. After all, his established goal is not necessarily to acquire andema, but to become a shareholder.
"The first watch" is presented.
