Chapter 624 The overall situation is the most important thing!
This time the negotiation was initiated by Thomas, and Heidhill was invited to come. Heidhill was very confident that the deal could be reached this time.
One night passed.
Early the next morning, Hydehill, escorted by bodyguards, drove to Thomas's estate by car to start the eighth negotiation.
On this very day, a plane took off from Hamburg Airport and flew directly to Tianchao Ri Morning Market. It was clearly written in the column of charter customers registered at the airport.
Xingling Group Mechanical Research Institute.
Doreen and her small team were also on the plane, heading to the headquarters of the Xingling Group. Most people on the plane talked about the delicious food of China with great interest.
They were talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was very relaxed.
This time when she arrived at the headquarters of the Xingling Group, Doreen had a small idea, and that was to go to Xingguang University.
Several Nobel Prize winners affiliated to the Xingling Group are honorary professors at Starlight University and have all lectured at Starlight University. Basically, a great expert will come to give lectures every month.
Moreover, Starlight University also erected stone statues for these honorary professors, including Doreen's stone statue, which was specially approved by Gao Jin.
When she first received the news, Doreen was so excited that she couldn't sleep well for several days. Later, she never had time to come to the headquarters due to R&D issues.
This time when I come here, I have to take pictures in front of my own stone statue.
No one else knew about Doreen's little idea. They thought that Doreen was excited because she could taste Chinese delicacies. Everyone knew that Doreen loved delicious food.
Birmingham, Thomas Manor.
Thomas invited Hydehill to talk in the garden. It was boring to stay in the room all day, but talking in the sunshine in the garden would make people feel much happier.
As the two drank coffee, the topic slowly turned to the topic, and Thomas threw out his plan.
After hearing this, Heideshier looked at Thomas and narrowed his eyes. You actually want to get involved in the flying giant sword market. You are very ambitious.
"Thomas, your plan surprises me a little," Hydehill said with a smile. Thomas also smiled and said in his heart, this is the result he wants.
All along, only a handful of people knew what Bach Industries was going to produce. Even now that the factory is almost completed, the builders don't even know what is going to be produced here.
"If it weren't for greater profits, I would not sell the Green Research Institute. You should know that the Green Research Institute is the foundation of our family's rise."
"Frankly speaking, I also went through a lot of mental struggle to make this decision."
"Our family has a group policy that prohibits the sale of the Green Research Institute. If it were not for the last resort, I would not have made this decision."
Thomas said this with a serious expression on his face. Thomas' family's influence has always been limited to the Eagle Country. It has a huge influence in Birmingham, but not much influence in the entire country.
Once Bach Industries succeeds, it will bring the Thomas family's wealth and influence to a higher level.
Thomas's meaning today is very clear. There is no greater interest. Why should I sell the Green Research Institute? Our family has invested hugely in the Green Research Institute.
From hundreds of thousands of pounds per year when the Green Institute was first established to the current annual investment of 100 million pounds, the Thomas family has invested no less than three billion pounds in the Green Institute.
"This news is a bit sudden. You know very well that I need to communicate with my boss." Heideshier looked at Thomas and said this.
Frankly speaking, Heideshier didn't understand Gao Jin's intention to acquire the Green Institute, especially since the acquisition cost 1.2 billion pounds, which was obviously a money-losing acquisition.
But Gao Jin has absolute authority within the Xingling Group, and no one can change Gao Jin's decision on what he decides, and can only do it according to Gao Jin's requirements.
"Okay, you can practice high school first, and I'll make arrangements. Let's have a drink at noon." Thomas said with a smile, Heidehir nodded, and Thomas stood up and left.
After Thomas left, Hydehill took out the satellite phone from his bag and started dialing. Gao Jin's phone number was easy to remember, with a string of zeros followed by a 1.
It's early morning here in Birmingham, and it's already evening since the Tianchao Morning Market. Gao Jin is practicing calligraphy in his study at the moment. The phone rang, and Gao Jin put down his calligraphy and answered it directly.
"I'm Gao Jin" he said calmly.
"Boss, I am Heideshier." Heideshier announced his name.
Gao Jin was stunned, why did Haider Hill call at this time and ask "what happened".
"Boss, I'm in Birmingham. I'm talking to Thomas, the owner of the Green Institute, about the acquisition. The other party has proposed a new plan and plans to intervene in the flying giant sword market."
"The action should have been launched now, but the specific progress is unclear."
"The other party's plan is to make an exchange. They plan to use the Green Research Institute in exchange for our license to produce their flying giant sword production patent."
"what should I do"
Haider Hill reported the matter truthfully and began to ask Gao Jin for his opinion.
Gao Jin frowned after hearing this. At this time, the voice of the star spirit appeared in his mind, "The overall situation is more important!" Gao Jin took a deep breath after hearing this.
"How many patents are involved?" Gao Jin asked.
"Four hundred and eighty-nine patents, Thomas just said that if we agree to his condition, he will guarantee the complete transfer of the Green Research Institute."
"The more than 9,700 patents obtained by the Green Institute over the years, as well as current research projects, including the personnel currently employed by the Institute, and the Institute's land."
"Full and complete handover"
"I feel that when he mentioned the current employees, his tone was a bit harsh."
Heideshier said this truthfully.
After Gao Jin listened to Hyde Hill's report, he thought about it and understood what Thomas meant, with a contemptuous smile on his face.
"Although the Green Institute has many patents, it is a pity that these patents are not very practical. Each of them costs a lot and cannot be converted into products to make money."
"What I am interested in are the top students he acquires from the University of Birmingham and the University of London every year. These high-level scientific research talents who have been trained are what I want to get."
"He should have analyzed this."
Gao Jin said this very calmly. After hearing this, Haider Hill frowned. In his heart, Haider Hill thought that the people at the Green Institute were not worth the price.
"What should I do instead?" Hydehill asked again.
"Promise him"
"First complete the handover of the Green Institute, and it requires that not a single scientific researcher be missing."
"As for patent authorization."
"Let's wait until the handover of the institute is completed. If he doesn't agree, we can negotiate with him and complete the patent licensing agreement within 20 days after the institute's transaction."
After Gao Jin made a decision, Heidhill understood what he should do, communicated some minor issues with Gao Jin, and ended the call.
Gao Jin hung up the phone and thought for a while, then picked up the satellite phone and started dialing. Soon the call was connected, and the voice of Zachary, the head of the Hamburg Machinery Research Institute, came out, "Boss, I am Zachary."
"Zachary, arrange for your deputy Berry to start preparations. Ask him to lead three deputies to Birmingham within two days to listen to Hyde Hill's arrangements and prepare to take over a research institute."
Gao Jin immediately made arrangements. Zachary's deputy, Berry, was very capable. He had been working for the Protoss Group for five years as Zachary's deputy and had passed two reviews.
He is a very pragmatic person, and it is time for promotion. This time he took over the Green Research Institute and sent him out.
"Boss, I believe Berry will be so excited that he can't sleep when he hears this news," Zachary said with a smile, and Gao Jin also laughed after hearing this.
"Knock him, don't make him do anything wrong in excitement," Gao Jin said with a smile.
"Understood, I will talk to Berry immediately and I will give him a good beating so that he can go to Birmingham with a normal mind." Zachary already understood what Gao Jin meant and agreed immediately.
The two chatted for a few words, and Gao Jin hung up the phone.
Birmingham, Thomas Manor, Hyde Hill began to enter into substantive negotiations with Thomas. After hearing Hyde Hill's request, Thomas felt secretly proud.
My guess was correct. The Xingling Group was interested in the more than 400 highly advanced scientific research talents in the research institute. I made the right bet.
In Thomas' view, talent is nothing. With his family's relationship with the University of Birmingham and the University of London, he can completely rebuild the Green Institute in two years.
The Thomas family owns shares in the University of Birmingham and has a very close relationship with the University of London, making an annual donation.
As long as this personal connection is not lost, everything lost now will eventually be rebuilt.
The big framework has been established, and the next step is to discuss some small matters and procedures. The Green Research Institute must first be sold to Bach Industries.
The price is 1.2 billion pounds, so Thomas has no loss.
To start a transaction with the Protoss Group in the name of Bach Industries, Thomas has obtained the authorization from the board of directors and can proceed with the transaction immediately.
Let's have a drink together at noon today, and we can start specific transactions tomorrow.
Heideshier agreed to this. Reviewing the contract could not be completed quickly by one person. He needed to dispatch a few veterans from the law firm in Hamburg to help.
I have just called to make arrangements. Five experienced lawyers will arrive in Birmingham tonight. It is a quick flight from Hamburg to Birmingham.
The day passed quickly, and Hyde Hill successfully joined the lawyers. At the same time, he also received a call from Zachary. Berry would lead the four of them over and they would arrive in Birmingham today.
No delay in accepting the institute.
Jamie also called Hyde Hill. Twenty security personnel will also leave for Birmingham today and will cooperate to take over the Green Institute.
He has already given instructions on who will lead the team, and everything will be based on Heidheer's orders.
PS: One piece is missing and will be fixed tomorrow. I am really tired today.
I'll have a rest tomorrow, so I'll definitely send you the fourth update!
