Chapter 810

"Boss, here we are!"

“…”

After the three came in, Wu Jianmin, the leader, took the lead in speaking, and the two colleagues also greeted one after another.

"Dominic, Davis, pierce, you're here. Please sit down!" Seeing the three come in, Li Feng replied with a smile.

"Boss, is the CEO of standard bank coming this afternoon?" Just after sitting down, Wu Jianmin asked again with a little eagerness.

"Ha ha... Dominic, don't be too anxious. You know, anxious can't eat hot tofu. People haven't come yet. By the way, pierce, I also want to thank you for your help on bobley."

Laughing and comforting Wu Jianmin, he turned his head to thank Zhuang Sibei.

"Boss, I would also like to thank you for giving me this opportunity."

"No, your own efforts have won the opportunity. Besides, sir, your resume in finance and retail is really satisfactory. I can't help thinking."

"Boss, sir, you two are welcome. Anyway, you will be a family in the future. The so-called seeing people for a long time will last for a long time." Davis, the chief executive, joked with a smile.

"Ha ha... Yes. Besides, it seems that we are too polite. Just be free."

"It should be. It's my job!"

“…”

……

Talking and laughing, time passed unconsciously. Just talking, housekeeper William took people into the living room. Li Feng saw that it was John Rupert and his party.

In addition to the South African tycoon, there are two black and white middle-aged men. I think both of them should be important members of standard bank.

Seeing the visitor, Li Feng and Wu Jianmin also got up to greet each other, and took the lead in saying, "Rupert, I've been waiting for you for a long time, and finally I'm looking forward to you."

"Haha... John, that's really my fault, but you should understand how difficult it is for Sula and SIM to come here together. It took me a lot of effort." John Rupert replied with a laugh and introduced the two people around him to Li Feng.

In black and white, the white man's name is surani, who is the chairman of standard bank group and comes on behalf of the board of directors and shareholders of standard bank; The black man's name is SIM, but he is the CEO of standard bank. He comes for the bank itself, management and employees.

Li Feng also introduced Wu Jianmin and Rupert. As the servants brought coffee and tea, a group of talents sat down and chatted again.

"John, I haven't congratulated you yet. Even in South Africa, I heard your news. Recently, I heard that you have gained a lot. You have pocketed world-famous brands such as bobley and Lamborghini. It's too powerful!"

"Ha ha... That's it. I heard that Rupert, you also gained a lot. It is said that you bought a lot of shares in the hands of the shareholders of standard bank who opposed the acquisition initiated by Standard Chartered. I have to curry favor with you, otherwise my bank plan will not be completed."

“…”

Listening is like praising each other's words, which makes other people laugh secretly. Maybe they are all shouting, old fox and little fox.

……

"Forget it, John, I won't play charades with you. With the arrival of sulani and SIM, I think you should understand the current position of standard bank. Now the board of directors of the group has reached an agreement and agreed to your proposed acquisition plan, but the details need to be changed slightly.

No, sulani and sim will contact you on behalf of the whole standard bank group to roughly understand the wishes of both sides and reach a unified direction before formal negotiations.

However, John, you are not kind. You know that Jijia, Lange, Wanguo and other watch brands are my goals, but you started in advance, which makes me very passive. "

"No, Rupert, I really don't know. Since the establishment of shahua on my other side, old Pinot has been at the helm. At that time, we reached an agreement on the establishment of the group and the acquisition of brands. This is the most likely brand to be acquired by old Pinot after analyzing the current luxury brands. I don't know what you value."

"Are you sure...?"

Looking at John Rupert with a suspicious and unbelievable face, Li Feng can only shrug his shoulders to show that he really doesn't know what you mean by wronging me.

Of course, Wu Jianmin, who was sitting on one side, secretly laughed in his heart. As one of Li Feng's closest men, Wu Jianmin naturally knew the truth.

……

The original luxury list was actually decided by Li Feng after he mentioned it and agreed with Pino and his son. At first, he wanted to do it quietly. However, after John Rupert returned to South Africa, it was reported that he had acquired many bank shares, Li Feng agreed with Wu Jianmin and Pino and his son.

As a result, some product acquisition plans were directly disclosed, mainly in the watch industry, and these brands have become the main brands of Richemont group in history. Obviously, Li Feng's move hit John Rupert's seven inches, which forced him to speed up the layout of South Africa.

"Well, John, I hope you can give up the acquisition plan of Jijia, Lange, Wanguo and other watch brands. Similarly, in return, I will try my best to promote the merger and acquisition of Standard Chartered and standard bank. What do you think?"

At this time, John Rupert couldn't care too much. He bluntly said that after all, Lifeng group is Rupert's core business, and these new top luxury brands are related to Lifeng's development strategy.

If Li Feng is a good money owner and competes with him for these brands, even if he does acquire them, it will cost a lot. More likely, he will be pocketed by the other bank shahua group. In this way, it will affect the development strategy of Lifeng.

Similarly, surani and SIM, who are on the side at this time, have a black face, which really makes them speechless. You John Rupert are too anxious. We haven't said it yet.

Seeing Li Feng meditating there, John Rupert couldn't help saying again: "John, what do you think?"

……

"Rupert, you'd better talk about standard bank. I think the board of directors of the bank should have made a decision. I hope there can be a positive result."

"OK, in fact, I think you see what I should represent when I bring SIM and sulani to London, and you should also receive the news. I recently acquired a lot of shares of standard bank in South Africa, and more than six shareholders in the board of directors agreed to the acquisition proposal. Therefore, it can be said that the board of directors of the company has decided and we can formally negotiate."

As soon as the dialogue between the two ended, sulani, now the chairman of standard bank group, finally spoke: "Mr. Li, I come on behalf of the board of directors and those shareholders. Although the board of directors supports the acquisition with more than half, the specific needs to depend on the negotiation. I also represent the interests of many shareholders."

"Similarly, Mr. Li, I'm SIM, the CEO of standard bank. I come on behalf of the management and the interests of the bank's employees. Maybe we can talk about the development strategy of Standard Chartered Bank in detail."

"Wow... Thank you for coming. Since you are so direct, I'm not polite. Rupert, you want me to give up these brands, but let me make a little request. You can transfer all the shares of standard bank you purchased to me, how about it?"

"John, I'm optimistic about the future of Standard Chartered Bank. Can't I keep some? I'm just an investment. I can even promise not to cash out within 2 years after listing. What do you think?"

"Rupert, I think you should see my steps after acquiring Standard Chartered?"

"God, are you going to privatize Standard Bank, too?"

……

"Temporary delisting and privatization are necessary. After the integration, I will reconsider listing. I hope to get the support of three people. The development of standard bank is still good. If my goal can be achieved, I can make a commitment here, especially SIM and sulani, the group chairman of future African companies There can still be two CEOs. "

For the two and the group management of standard bank, Li Feng didn't want to change immediately. First, the next development of standard bank is still good, which proves the ability of these people; Second, for the time being, Li Feng really has no talent to keep up. After all, it's in Africa.

Sure enough, each has its own needs. For Rupert, at the cost of giving up the acquisition of these famous products, we should be able to get Rupert's support. In the final analysis, they are still senior workers. Obviously, their positions are the most important. Everyone has selfishness.

For Li Feng's words, which were obviously divided and broken against the two sides, the three opposite people were full of thoughts.
