Joanna's lawyer and Jerome's lawyer reviewed the equity gift agreement, and Jerome donated 0.83% of the Fiat Group shares he held to his daughter Joanna.
Of course, the lawyer will handle the tax issues very well and keep the fees to a minimum. Joanna and Jerome both signed.
After walking out of the law firm, the father and daughter looked at each other. Neither of them expected that the relationship between father and daughter would reach this point.
"Take care of yourself!"
After Jerome finished speaking, he hugged Joanna, turned around and left with the lawyer. Joanna looked at her father's back, her eyes showing complicated emotions.
Gao Jin's persuasion was one thing, but what really made Joanna make up her mind was the child. A mother would not allow her child to be harmed in any way.
No matter who it is, they will never be allowed to harm their children.
Eagle Country, Birmingham
In a manor in the suburbs, three men and one woman were talking in the living room. Judging from the clothes worn by the four people, everyone was no ordinary person.
The clothes of the four people did not have any logo, but they were very decent. Everyone was holding coffee, talking and laughing.
The four of them are the top management of Bach Industries, a newly established company in Birmingham.
"Alina, have all the shareholders' funds been in place?" Matos asked.
Matos serves as the chairman and CEO of Bach Industries. At the same time, he also holds the title of viscount and is a member of the House of Lords.
Prominent status.
"Everything is in place. Currently, our company has a total of 18 shareholders, and each of the 11 shareholders has paid in 500 million yuan."
"The remaining seven belong to members of parliament"
"According to regulations, the funds paid by members are reduced by 40%, and each person's funds of 300 million have been received."
"As for your funds, boss, there are currently more than 8 billion pounds on the books, and the funds are very abundant."
Alina said this with a smile, and Matos and the other two laughed. With the funds in place, and the connections among everyone, there was nothing that could stop them from making money.
"Matos, how to solve the patent issue? According to the current progress of the factory, we also need to consider the patent issue," Vice President Bruno asked.
Hearing this sentence, the expressions on everyone's faces disappeared. The technology of the flying giant sword has been conquered by the scientific research team. Because of patent issues, you cannot produce and sell it openly.
All relevant technology patents are in the hands of Xingling Group. It is not easy to obtain patent authorization from Xingling Group.
"Everyone, let me explain to you today," Matos said with a smile.
Everyone invested in this new company, Bach Industries, because of Matos's solemn guarantee that they could obtain patent authorization from the Protoss Group.
I hope no one will ask about how to do it specifically. Based on Matos' long-standing credibility, everyone believed what Matos said.
Bruno is a representative sent by a company called the Coachman Fund under the Dutch royal family. This meeting was held with the purpose of asking about this matter, and it was time to resolve the matter.
"You all know that I have a research institute in my name. This research institute is named after my grandfather Green. This is a research institute with a history of more than 60 years."
"The rise of our family relies on several technological breakthroughs from the Green Institute."
"Heide Hill, Protoss Group's Minister of Legal Affairs in Europe, came to me seven times with the purpose of acquiring Green Research Institute and offered a price of up to 1.2 billion pounds."
"I haven't let go because our family has a policy not to sell the Green Institute."
"Now, for the sake of our common cause, the time has come for me to sell the Greene Institute."
"I plan to make a deal to sell the Green Research Institute to Bach Industries, and then use the research institute to exchange it with the Protoss Group in the name of Bach Industries."
"The Protoss Group does not need to spend a pound to obtain the Green Institute, and we also do not need to spend a pound to obtain the Protoss Group's authorization for the flying giant sword."
"This is the only way to obtain the Protoss Group's patent authorization for the flying giant sword."
Thomas explained the matter and everyone understood what was going on.
"Thomas, which technology of the Green Institute is attracting the Protoss Group?" Vice President Neo asked. The research institute that can attract the attention of the Protoss Group will definitely not be that simple.
"Frankly speaking, I really don't know which achievement is attracting the Protoss Group"
"Since Heide Hill first discussed with me the acquisition of Green Research Institute, I have specially hired a technology team and a technology conversion business team to review all of Green Research Institute's previous and current patented technologies."
"I can't find any scientific research results of great value, including the projects currently being carried out by the institute, which have also been analyzed in detail."
“No results at all”
"I didn't give up, and secretly hired more than 20 experts from the Lane Institute in Germany, the Royal Institute in London, and the Santos Institute in Paris to analyze it."
"After two months of analysis, there is still no satisfactory result."
"We started discussing the flying giant sword later, and I put it down. As long as the patent issue can be solved, I believe it is worthwhile to sell the Green Research Institute."
After Thomas told the story, everyone frowned, feeling that what Thomas said was a bit strange.
It is recognized that the Prototype Group has strong research and development capabilities. It is definitely not that simple for a research institute to be favored by the Prototype Group.
But so many private plane professors have not analyzed the purpose of the Protoss Group, which is a bit confusing.
Thomas looked at everyone, understanding their concerns in his heart, and asked them to wait for a moment before he stood up and went upstairs. Soon, he came over with several thick folders in his arms.
"Everyone, you can take a look. This is the report given to me by the experts and professors."
"Without exception, they all failed. None of them analyzed the purpose of the Protoss Group's acquisition of the Green Research Institute."
After Thomas finished speaking, he made an action to let everyone look at it casually. Everyone picked up the folder and started to look through it. After a while, everyone put down the folder.
None of us are ordinary people. We all know some of the scientists and professors who signed the document, and we have seen the conclusions given by these people. We are unable to analyze the specific purpose of the Protoss Group.
It is very simple to confirm. You only need to make a phone call to someone you know after you go back to confirm the matter. However, everyone believes that Thomas will not play tricks on this matter.
Because it makes no sense.
"Thomas, I believe you talked to Hyde Hill, did you find anything?" Neo asked.
Thomas was able to increase his family's wealth more than ten times in just ten years. He was definitely a shrewd man and it was impossible for him to not have discovered it at all.
"It would be a lie to say that I haven't discovered anything at all, but I doubt my judgment."
"According to my analysis, Xingling Group's acquisition of Green Research Institute is not about technology, but the current scientific researchers in Green Research Institute."
"Absorbing this group of scientific researchers can effectively strengthen Xingling Group's strength in advanced materials research."
"This is my only answer"
After Thomas finished speaking, he spread his hands and said that he had no answer. The Green Institute has been engaged in the research of advanced materials and has achieved a lot of results over the past few decades.
But most of the results cannot be converted into commodities.
The Thomas family relied on several breakthroughs made by the Green Institute. In order to obtain greater benefits in the future, the Thomas family invested 100 million pounds in research and development expenses for the institute every year to continue its operations.
"Has Heidehir proposed to acquire the existing researchers together?" Alina asked with a frown.
"As I said, if I agree to the price of 1.2 billion pounds, no one of the current Green Institute staff will be missing, and their contracts must be included in the deal."
Thomas told the truth. After everyone heard this sentence, their hearts began to be more or less inclined to Thomas's judgment.
It is believed that the Xingling Group values the scientific researchers of Green Research Institute.
Talent is the foundation of everything. By recruiting this group of talents and with Xingling Group's large investment, we can achieve greater profits in the future.
"Thomas, I agree with your plan. It's no problem for the company to acquire the Green Institute. GBP 1.2 billion is not a big deal."
"However, there is a prerequisite for this matter. You must ensure that the Protoss Group will agree to the exchange."
"If this cannot be done, I cannot agree to Bach Industries' acquisition of the Greene Institute."
Bruno told the truth, 1.2 billion pounds is nothing, and the acquisition of the research institute is not a big deal, but the prerequisite must be to obtain the patent authorization from the Star Spirit Group.
If this is not possible, there is no point in acquiring the research institute.
In the view of the consortium, money is the root of everything. It is a kind of blasphemy against money to acquire research institutes and slowly wait for their scientific research breakthroughs.
With this waiting time, I might have made hundreds of millions.
"This matter will have an answer in the next two days. Hyde Hill will arrive in Birmingham today, and we will start negotiations tomorrow. According to my analysis, the result will be available in two days at most."
"Don't forget, everyone, the guy from Xingling Group is a technology geek."
Thomas said with a smile on his face. Everyone laughed and understood what Thomas meant. Everyone knew that Gao Jin was very paranoid about investing in scientific research.
Currently, there is no one similar to Gao Jin in the world, but everyone is envious of the results achieved by the research institutes affiliated to the Xingling Group.
Take a look at the current flagship products of the Prototype Group. They are basically breakthroughs made by research institutes affiliated to the Prototype Group, creating companies with terrifying profits one after another.
After the serious talk was over, several people started to discuss other small matters. Everyone felt a lot more relaxed. The purpose of today's gathering was achieved.
At Birmingham Airport, Hyde Hill got off the plane under the escort of twelve bodyguards, walked out of the airport, got into the vehicle sent by the hotel to pick him up, and went straight to the hotel with the reservation number.
I have a day off today and will go to Thomas' manor tomorrow for negotiations. This negotiation is the eighth time.
Also, it is being coded and will be uploaded later.
