Reborn Entrepreneurial Giant

Chapter 842 Acquisition Rumors

When Qu Li came to Germany, in addition to inspecting the Frankfurt R\u0026D center, he was also considering acquiring the Opel R\u0026D center in Rüsselsheim, at least to accept some employees.

There is of course a reason behind this matter. There has always been cooperation between GM, Opel and Qiancheng Geometry. It can even be said that the development of Fuyao Architecture 1.0 and Lantu Light Chaser received some technical support from Opel.

The boss of SAIC was also unhappy because of this. However, he later learned that there was not as much cooperation with Universal Language Qiancheng as expected, but there was indeed a cooperative relationship between several companies.

General Motors wanted to sell Opel last year. Many companies participated in the bidding, and also invited Future Geometry to participate. Qu Li arranged for a team to come and experience it, until this year it was confirmed that Opel would be sold to Peugeot Citroën.

In order to sell for more money, it is reasonable to help buyers solve some problems in advance. Therefore, after Citroën carried out due diligence, it came up with the idea of ​​reducing costs, including laying off employees at the factory and closing some R\u0026D centers.

Most of the employees of Qiancheng Geometry's R\u0026D center near Frankfurt are from Opel. Without restrictions from GM Opel, Qiancheng Motors entrusted some R\u0026D tasks to Opel for development. The two R\u0026D centers have a relatively close cooperative relationship.

Under normal circumstances, this R\u0026D center should be difficult to manage, but Qu Li is a "master of management". Geometry pure electric cars and Saab plug-in hybrids have nothing to do with them. In addition, Qu Li has always been "emphasis on electricity and light oil" and "emphasis on softness and lightness". "Hard" continued to put pressure on them, and Opel itself failed to live up to expectations. After all, the team in this R\u0026D center was trained well.

Qu Li is an entrepreneur with ideals and execution ability, and he is also a big capitalist. His toughness is taken for granted. Respecting capable people does not mean that he will provide support without a bottom line, so he also has some problems in management. My own set is not only information-based but also humane, and is closer to the one of Glory.

His doing this did not cause much backlash. In addition to giving him enough money, it may be related to the fact that the company has enough choices. The reputation of the company is getting bigger and bigger in Europe and the United States. More and more senior talents are willing to join. Those who dare to cause trouble are fired. The management is also unrelenting. The premise of all this is that there is no shortage of money for the future, and the future is bright!

Now the future model or Qu Li's management strategy are being questioned in the capital market, but it has not affected the company's sales. Obviously, a big boss who is not short of money can give employees and consumers more confidence.

Peugeot Citroën's acquisition of Opel has been roughly finalized. After Qu Li arrived in Germany, he basically confirmed the acquisition of Opel's R\u0026D center and initially discussed the car OEM. The Hungarian factory will take time, but the hot-selling Lantu will be exposed/chased. The introduction of these two cars into Europe seems to have good prospects.

However, Qiancheng's sales of fuel vehicles avoided Germany and France, the two traditional automotive industry powers, and even did not go to Northern Europe and the United Kingdom. Instead, they chose Central and Eastern Europe and Southern Europe. The establishment of the factory in Hungary was based on this consideration.

As for why they do this, of course it is because of "discrimination" or "pride." The Germans believe that their cars are the best in the world, and they are so blindly confident.

Although Qu Li is powerful, he doesn't think he can change anything. It is better to conquer other countries and regions, which is equivalent to surrounding the cities from the countryside, using the praise of the United States and European countries to subtly change the minds of the British, French and German people.

Of course, it may not be so troublesome. Ten years from now, Geometry may give up on fuel vehicles. From now on, consumers around the world will know that Geometry’s pure electric vehicles are the best choice in the world. Some people want to say Tesla, it doesn't matter, just compare it and you will know.

In order to reduce costs at Tesla, Musk seems to have become obsessed with it. He has forgotten that cars are consumer goods. Consumers want more than just a mobility scooter. At least in China, it can provide long-term emotional value to consumers.

The price of the Geometry pure electric vehicle is higher than that of Tesla, which is mainly reflected in the smart cockpit and accessories, such as adding a sunshade so that the owner does not have to "drive with an umbrella".

Qu Li is not an engineer, nor is he a patient with obsessive-compulsive disorder like Bridges. He pursues perfection without forgetting the "moderate". The impression he showed to the senior management of GM, Peugeot Citroën and Opel is quite contradictory, with strong persistence and cooperation under compromise. Bottom line.

There is almost no need for Qiancheng Motor to acquire the Opel R\u0026D center because there will not be many development plans for fuel vehicles in the future, but it still chose to acquire Saab and improve this EU car company.

Just a few days after the negotiations in Germany, the news of CMGE's acquisition of "Opel" suddenly spread to China, causing quite a discussion.

Qu Li went abroad to watch football in the United States. At first, some people said it was because of Liu Yifei, but then Boss Jia, who was happy to see him, ran to the United States and started his classic "return to the country next week." So some people suspected that Qu Li also ran away.

Although there is no evidence, there are people who doubt this and that: "Qu Li is only in his thirties. Under normal circumstances, he would never give up two Fortune 500 companies, but he has no nostalgia and even gave up his identity as the chairman of Jinshan." …”

"How much ability can a junior high school student in Qu Li have... We have reason to believe..."

"Don't let Qu Li escape. He has nearly one trillion yuan of wealth to his name..."

A short essay suddenly became popular in China, and Qu Li seemed to be the target of public criticism. Fortunately, there were many people who believed in him. Only those without the ability to think would believe these rumors. The reason is simple. In a fully competitive market environment, who can become three Fortune 500 companies? Especially for automobiles, CMOS has broken through the siege and become the most successful international (not the largest overseas sales) independent brand.

The author of "Don't Let Qu Li Run Away" became famous instantly and had millions of fans in just one month. It also caused a big discussion: Is it necessary for Qu Li, a Hong Kong native, to run away?

A concept that these people deliberately confuse is that after obtaining permanent residence status in Hong Kong, there is no need to cancel the mainland household registration and you will still be a pure Chinese. But it’s not that the troll doesn’t know, he just wants to find excuses to troll you.

Qu Li's whereabouts in the United States and the European Union were not kept secret, and he sometimes took photos and uploaded them to Instagram. He also did not respond to the rumors of running away and continued to go his own way. Until this time, rumors about the acquisition of Opel spread again. It can be said: rumors are like the wind, always accompanying me.

As a long-established car company with an annual sales volume of 1.7 million vehicles in Europe, Opel's acquisition would indeed play a big role. The most direct way is to change the logo of the Geometric car, and it will immediately become a best-selling brand in Europe.

"I acquired Mitsubishi Motors last year and Opel this year. Is my future going to be huge?" Some fans are looking forward to Qu Li completing this acquisition. Although he has suffered losses from GM for many years, Qu Li is different. He can Turn decay into magic.

"Chapter 5 has no plans to acquire Opel. We are talking about cooperation." Qu Li quickly came forward to clarify the rumors.
