The next day, Li Guangyu also came to Jaguar headquarters. This time he will personally participate in the negotiations for the acquisition of Jaguar.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Li Guangyu, Du Yuemei, Zhang Ziyu and Weaver Clark arrived in the Jaguar conference room. Also in the conference room were Jaguar President Sampson Gerald and the company's Vice President Phu Lao Er.
, and Finance Director Celis Evely.
Weaver Clark said: "Our government plans to sell Jaguar to Mr. Li Guangyu this time. This time I am here to solicit the opinions of all Jaguar employees based on the principle of being responsible for Jaguar."
After Weaver Clark finished speaking, Sampson Gerard immediately said: "Mr. Clark, all employees of our company are opposed to the government selling our company."
Du Yuemei said: "Mr. Gerrard, please do not impose your personal wishes on all Jaguar employees. You have repeatedly prevented us from acquiring Jaguar for your own personal gain, trying to defeat the will of all employees to ask the government to abandon this plan.
, you are destined to fail to achieve this goal."
Seeing this, Li Guangyu was unable to communicate. It was obvious that Sampson Gerrard had no intention of communicating with them.
Li Guangyu said: "Mr. Clark, I think we should consult more opinions from Jaguar's middle and senior management, instead of just listening to the opinions of Mr. Gerrard and a few people around him."
Sampson Gerrard naturally doesn't want to do this, as he would lose the initiative.
Sampson Gerrard said: "Mr. Li, as the leadership of Jaguar, we naturally represent the wishes of everyone at Jaguar. I think there is no need to ask for their opinions again. What I said are the suggestions they gave.
"
Du Yuemei did not expect that Sampson Gerald was so shameless. It was just the opposition of a few of them. When had they consulted the opinions of those in the company, and now he came out to oppose the Li Group under the banner of representing the opinions of all the people in the company?
Take possession.
Du Yuemei said: "Mr. Gerrard, we still have to be realistic. Your personal wishes cannot represent everyone. I hope Jaguar will convene a meeting of middle and high-level executives immediately to vote on this acquisition."
Sampson Gerrard is not willing to do this. If the vote passes the Lee Group's acquisition of Jaguar, then he will have no way out.
Sampson Gerrard said: "Mr. Clark, Mr. Li, I think there is no need to add any more. The reason why we oppose this acquisition is that we have the opinions of Jaguar's management and all employees."
Weaver Clark said with a smile: "Mr. Gerald, since the Jaguar management and all employees are opposed to Mr. Li's acquisition, we will hold another meeting so that Mr. Li and the others can give up on the acquisition of Jaguar. Please notify us immediately.
The management should go to the conference room for the meeting, and don't try to delay it. If you don't want to, then I will report you to the government's decision to block it."
After hearing what Weaver Clark said, Sampson Gerald could only ask someone to notify the company's middle and senior management to come to the conference room for a meeting in half an hour.
After Li Guangyu and the others stayed in this conference room for more than twenty minutes, they arrived at the large conference room of Jaguar Company. All the middle and senior managers of the company were already in place, waiting for their arrival.
After arriving at the front desk of the conference room, Weaver Clark said: "The reason for convening this meeting is that our government intends to sell the company's shares to Mr. Li Guangyu. Our government is responsible for the company and all employees.
, I specifically seek your opinions first. Although Mr. Gerrard has already consulted your opinions, Mr. Li and I still want to hear your opinions personally."
When the management present heard Weaver Clark say that Sampson Gerrard had consulted them, they immediately looked at Sampson Gerrard. They were thinking about Sampson Gerrard.
When have you ever asked for your opinion? This was directly represented.
Sampson Gerrard also felt uncomfortable for a while. After Weaver Clark finished speaking, he immediately said: "Colleagues, our development at Jaguar has not been easy. As our British luxury and noble brand, we cannot
We can let it fall into the hands of outsiders. Only if we control the company ourselves can we make Jaguar develop better."
Li Guangyu didn't want these managers to be affected by Sampson Gerrard's words. In order to prevent Li Guangyu's acquisition, Gerrard directly played the national card. It was really shameless.
Li Guangyu said: "Dear management, I believe that Jaguar will only develop better under my hands. We have a complete plan for Jaguar's future development, and I also have the ability to help Jaguar open up the market to billions of people in Asia."
, whether it is Southeast Asia, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong or mainland China, I have a certain influence. As long as we start business, your salary and benefits will be improved accordingly."
Then Zhang Ziyu introduced the current situation of the Li Group to the management. The management present were very surprised when they heard the situation of the Li Group. They did not expect that such a powerful family existed in such a small place in Xiangjiang.
Although Sampson Gerald talks about taking the company into British hands, even the government doesn't have such an idea now, so why should he care so much.
The Lee Group has strong financial resources and a strong influence in Asia. It will be a huge driving force for the development of Jaguar. As long as Asia opens up the sales market, its performance will rise rapidly, and its salary and benefits will also increase rapidly. No matter how you look at it,
It would be beneficial for Li Guangyu to take over Jaguar.
Weaver Clark said: "Now everyone has listened to Mr. Gerard and Mr. Lee's explanations. Everyone thought for ten minutes, and then we began to vote to determine whether our government will transfer Jaguar to Mr. Lee."
The atmosphere in the conference room is now very solemn. In these ten minutes, everyone felt that time passed so slowly. Even Li Guangyu was worried that if the voting result was defeated, his efforts these days would be in vain.
Weaver Clark's voice rang in the conference room, and he said: "Now we will give everyone a piece of paper with two options for everyone to choose from."
This time, Weaver Clark did not let Jaguar personnel distribute and collect the items. He asked his own staff to do the operation.
After Sampson Gerrard and others got it, they immediately checked the option to disagree with Li Guangyu's acquisition of Jaguar.
After giving everyone three minutes to choose, the selection results were collected.
Weaver Clark said: "For the sake of fairness, my staff will count the votes and register them, and Mr. Gerrard and Mr. Li will each send one person to supervise."
Li Guangyu naturally sent Zhang Ziyu to supervise the voting situation, while Sampson Gerald sent financial director Celis Evely to supervise.
As Weaver Clark's staff counted votes again and again, Sampson Gerrard's face became increasingly ugly.
After the votes were counted, Weaver Clark said: "This time more than 50% of the votes supported Mr. Li's acquisition of Jaguar, while only 31% opposed Mr. Li Guangyu's acquisition. Our government will next negotiate with Mr. Li Guangyu to acquire Jaguar."
At the same time, Mr. Li Guangyu can also send a person to supervise Jaguar during the negotiation process to avoid larger losses."
Li Guangyu knew that this was because Weaver Clark was worried that during the negotiation process with him, the management headed by Sampson Gerrard would cause trouble, causing the company to suffer huge losses.
Li Guangyu said: "Thank you for your trust in our Li Group. I believe that in the near future, you will not regret this choice."
…
After leaving Jaguar headquarters, Li Guangyu said: "Ziyu, you have worked hard to stay at Jaguar during this period. Keep an eye on Jaguar to prevent Sampson Gerrard from doing anything harmful to the company."
come out."
Zhang Ziyu said: "Okay Li Sheng, I will definitely be optimistic about Jaguar Company for the Li Group and safeguard the interests of the company."
Li Guangyu then said to Du Yuemei: "You will start negotiating with the British government next. This time it involves economic reform. They want to use Jaguar as a pilot. I think Mrs. Thatcher's government is not willing to delay too long.
As long as the price is not too excessive, you agree to this acquisition to avoid unnecessary complications."
"I understand, and I will negotiate with the British government about the acquisition of Jaguar as soon as possible." Du Yuemei replied.
