Chapter 89 Can you go even further?

"Two Mr. Yang."

As the meeting began, a manager who was about thirty years old and wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked very gentle stood up.

"In fact, in recent years, China's tourism industry has developed very rapidly. It can be regarded as the fastest growing field, and we have every reason to believe that its rapid development will continue for a long time in the future."

"But in the past few years when the tourism industry has developed so rapidly, many problems have also emerged, that is, the lack of tourism products, including yachts, especially the highest-end yachts, which are very scarce in China."

Yang Wenfeng understood this because the Yang Group had decided to build a yacht club and a five-star hotel in Sanya and Xiamen because it valued the development potential of this field.

"To be honest, Master Huan saw further than us. At that time, we only wanted to buy luxury yachts from abroad, but Master Huan wanted to take advantage of the opportunity provided by the economic crisis and acquire the entire yacht manufacturer. This is a very bold and remarkable idea."

"Because according to our preliminary estimates, in the next five to ten years, there will be a purchase volume of 100,000 yachts in the domestic market alone, with a total market value of about 100 billion yuan."

"In the domestic market, the yacht sales market is funnel-shaped, with only low-end and high-end, and no middle ground. There are many low-end yachts and the competition is very fierce, but the high-end yachts are all imported. Master Huan wants to acquire Sunseeker Yacht and introduce the most advanced yacht manufacturing technology into China, which can just fill the gap in high-end yachts!"

Yang Wenfeng found it a little funny after hearing this.

Those present here are either his personal think tank or the senior executives of Yang Group. Even they can't think of or do something, so how can that brat of mine think of or do it?

Does he really have this kind of business acumen?

I still remember when he called and said he wanted to invest 10 billion pounds in Europe, his only reason was that he thought it was very cheap to buy now. This made Yang Wenfeng almost vomit blood in anger.

Do you really think ten billion pounds is ten dollars?

Do you want to buy it just because it’s cheap?

Now that the whole world is in a financial crisis, wouldn't it be acquired by you?

But now, after hearing the analysis from my manager, it seems that this is a very promising investment.

"Manager Zhao, do you think this is feasible?" Yang Wenfeng asked with concern.

His eyes seemed to be saying, you can't find a lot of reasons to support his ideas and thoughts just because the person who proposed the plan is my son, you have to judge more objectively.

"Absolutely feasible!" Manager Zhao answered very affirmatively.

"Of course, when it comes to an acquisition worth over 100 million pounds, we will definitely have to carefully discuss and study the specific details."

After listening to what Manager Zhao said, Yang Wenfeng nodded, agreeing with this judgment.

"What if he wants to acquire Aston Martin?" Yang Wenfeng smiled bitterly. "We only represent some foreign luxury car brands, but we have never considered entering the automotive manufacturing industry."

An old man who looked like an engineer and had unkempt hair stood up.

"Aston Martin has always been synonymous with top sports cars. The company has very good car-making technology and craftsmanship. For example, their body rigidity and lightweight are at the leading level in the automotive industry. Even Mercedes-Benz wants to buy their technology, but Aston Martin won't sell."

Following the old man's words, everyone present was surprised.

That's Mercedes-Benz, which is considered the world's leading automobile manufacturer in China.

A technology that even Mercedes-Benz wants to buy?

"Aston Martin is said to be researching a new set of pressure welding and anodizing technologies that can further reduce the weight of the car while greatly improving the rigidity. Their chassis and suspension systems have always been among the best in the industry."

After hearing this, Yang Wenfeng looked at the chief engineer of Yang Group with some amazement.

"You mean to say that Aston Martin has the most advanced car manufacturing technology in the industry?"

"I can't say that." The engineer shook his head seriously, "But it is definitely one of the best."

Yang Wenfeng didn't understand, "Then why did they fall into a debt crisis?"

"They can't keep up with the times. They still insist on using handmade car-making technology and insist on local production in the UK, so the production is limited and the price is high. Therefore, even if they are both top-level supercars, their prices are much higher than those of their competitors."

"So, what you're saying is..."

"I think it is feasible to acquire Aston Martin, absorb their car manufacturing technology, and introduce it to domestic production, especially considering that the domestic consumer desire for top luxury cars has been getting stronger and stronger in recent years."

Yang Wenfeng felt depressed when he heard this. Could it be that the brat’s idea was really that good?

As a father, he has only one feeling towards Yang Huan: a bottomless pit.

They keep spending money and burning money like crazy, but so far there is no sign of making any money.

It seems like he went to the UK for a few months, spent so much money, and released a game, earning more than 500,000 pounds in two months.

But this little amount of money is not even enough to pay the interest.

Do we have to continue pouring money into it?

"Zhang Ning, what do you think?" Yang Wenfeng looked at the beautiful Zhang Ning.

Zhang Ning didn't stand up, but smiled slightly, looking extremely charming.

"In fact, Master Huan is not as crazy as he seems. I believe that since he mentioned it, he must have his own ideas. And to be honest, I have been in the UK for a few months. Now the British economy, and even the entire European economy, is indeed in a depression. This is undoubtedly a great opportunity to buy at the bottom."

"To paraphrase the capital market, if you buy at a low price now, even if you only operate for a period of time and survive the economic crisis, as long as the business improves, you can at least make a lot of money by selling it. After all, these are top brands that you couldn't buy when the economy was good."

When Zhang Ning said this, everyone present agreed.

"Dad, what do you think?" Yang Wenfeng turned to his father and asked.

Yang Baoping hummed, "I don't understand what you are talking about. I think, since we are talking about Ah Huan, why don't we listen to his thoughts? Just give him a call and ask him, then we will know, right?"

"Yes, the old man is right."

“Yes, Director Yang, why not just ask Young Master Huan what he thinks.

"Yeah, give it a call and ask."

After hearing this, Yang Wenfeng also thought it was a solution. After all, he had asked Yang Huan to come back for a meeting before, but he said he was busy. If he called him now, it couldn't be that he didn't even have time to talk on the phone, right?

The secretary called Yang Huan, pressed the speakerphone, and placed the phone directly on the desk.

"Hello!" Yang Huan's voice came from the phone.

Zhang Ning was not far from the phone, and when he heard the familiar voice, he smiled knowingly.

Judging from his tone, he should be living a pretty good life.

"Ah Huan, we are all discussing your plan." When Yang Baoping heard his grandson's voice on the phone, he said with a smile that he was very satisfied with what Yang Huan had done in Europe.

Although I haven’t made any money yet, didn’t this month’s profit increase tenfold compared to last month?

"Grandpa, what is there to discuss?" Yang Huan's puzzled voice came from the phone.

Yang Wenfeng was unhappy after hearing his nonchalant words, "How come there is nothing? Do you know? One billion pounds, ten billion yuan, my little ancestor, do you think our family prints money? Even if the central bank is opened by our family, we have to wait for it to dry before printing money, right?"

Everyone in the conference room tried hard to hold back their laughter. Everyone knew that Director Yang had no way to deal with Young Master Huan.

Many times, even when discussing matters with Young Master Huan, one has to speak in a humble manner.

"Dad, that's why everyone says you are more stable than courageous. This is a polite way of saying it. To put it bluntly, you are timid. You no longer have the courage you had in the past, and you have also lost the courage to forge ahead."

When Yang Wenfeng heard this, he became even more unhappy, "Hey, how do you talk like that?"

"Did I say something wrong?" Yang Huan on the phone was still so confident.

"Isn't it just 10 billion pounds? Things are cheap now, and the price is right. Of course, you should buy it when the time is right. If you hesitate like this, and wait for you to do market research and prepare investment reports, by the time you decide to make a move, the opportunity will be gone. Why bother?"

"At worst, I'll just treat it as a loan from you. According to our three-year agreement, if I can't pay you back by then, I'll definitely make it up to you even if I have to sell all my assets. You don't doubt that I don't have that much money, do you?"

You know what, Yang Wenfeng actually had this idea, because he didn't see how much money Yang Huan made.

"Dad, let me tell you something. There was a venture capital company in the City of London that wanted to invest in my gaming group. It was just a gaming group. Their valuation was 15 million pounds, and they were willing to take 7 million pounds in exchange for 45% of the shares."

"What?" Yang Wenfeng was shocked. Is there such a rich man in the world?

Seven million pounds, or 70 million RMB, just to acquire a game company that only has one game and earns 5 million RMB a month?

Is this possible?

But after being surprised, I thought about it carefully and it seemed that this business could be done.

After all, the investment is recovered in one year, isn’t it?

"What's the fuss? Is this really that surprising?"

Yang Wenfeng was depressed. Has anyone ever seen a son scold his father like this?

"Let me tell you one more thing. A venture capital company in Silicon Valley wants to acquire my WeChat, excluding the Chinese region. Guess how much they offered?" Yang Huan asked with a smile.

"How much?" Yang Wenfeng couldn't guess.

None of the senior management present guessed it.

"Three hundred million pounds."

"What?"

This time, not only Yang Wenfeng was shocked, everyone in the conference room was shocked, including Zhang Ning.

Three hundred million pounds?

Just to acquire a mobile app that was founded by Master Huan in less than two or three months?

My God, is there anything crazier in the world?

Is there?

Yang Wenfeng covered his chest and coughed violently twice. He suspected that his heart was about to jump out.

"Really... is it really 300 million pounds?" He confirmed with some disbelief.

"Of course, there is no need for me to tell this lie." Yang Huan answered as a matter of course.

"Besides, I've already rejected both acquisitions!"

"What?" Yang Wenfeng almost fell headfirst onto his desk. "You...you actually refused?"

Not only him, everyone in the conference room was shocked. Such a good offer was actually rejected?

"What's the matter?" Yang Huan was surprised by the voice coming from the phone. Why were these people so startled?

"I thought their valuation was too low and far from my psychological price, so I rejected it. Is there anything strange about that?"

“…”

Yang Wenfeng and everyone present were speechless.

You only spent three months to make this thing, and someone paid 300 million pounds to buy it, and you still think it's too low?

What kind of logic is this?

Or is this world just too crazy?

"Master Huan, can you tell me why you think it's too low?" The gentle middle-aged man with glasses asked with a wry smile.

He is one of the few executives in the Yang Group who can keep up with the thinking of the Internet era.

But now he just wanted to shout something into the phone.

Master Huan, can you be even more amazing?
