Chapter 468 Get involved in the UK's largest commercial TV group(2/3)

When the stock price fell to 13.9.

Quincy has more urgent matters to report to the CEO.

The BMW Group is just one of the many industries owned by the Quandt family.

If inflation and company losses are taken into account, the total would be even greater.

Coupled with the involvement of the Quandt family, we the public were forced to get involved in this turmoil.

Ferdinand Piech said angrily.

Ferdinand Piech and Joachim Milberg are about to leave London Heathrow Airport together and plan to return to Germany.

After careful explanation by the CFO, Mick finally understood that this was a planned and premeditated short-selling behavior against ITV.

This kind of thing is easy to say, but not easy at all to do.

But Ferdinand had to pay attention to the person, or that family, who stood behind Joachim.

The next day, Monday, April 20th.

"That nasty American is not in Financial Street. Smith UK CEO Jess received me. Jess claimed that Smith was tired of this matter and no longer interfered with our affairs and Rolls-Royce."

After hearing Joachim's words, Ferdinand couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Mick grabbed the phone with some cold sweat and called Cooper, the controlling owner of ITV in the UK. The latter is one of the top ten richest people in the UK and is mainly engaged in the real estate industry.

Buzz——

"You mean..." Mick Desmond suddenly felt that something was very wrong, "Abel Smith shorted us with the intention of acquiring us?"

If that were the case, the Quandt family would be roughly the same as the Porsche family or the Piech family.

Before he could speak again, he heard Joachim say again: "What I'm worried about now is that this American won't accept it."

He didn't look at anything, his eyes were staring directly at the beating blood-red numbers in front of him.

"It's been found out." The CFO said with some bitterness: "The person who shorted us is probably a Yankee, Abel Smith."

"Dong dong——"

"Mr. Quandt means that if possible, let us give the Rolls-Royce to that American."

Taking a deep breath, Ferdinand Piech made his voice sound as calm as possible.

So when Joachim talked about Stefan, Ferdinand couldn't help but cheer up, wanting to know what one of the heads of the Quante family said to Joachim.

"Things are getting very troublesome. The American guy obviously doesn't want to spend money!"

Sitting on the boss's chair that symbolizes power, Mick Desmond, CEO and Chairman of ITV, happily picked up the neatly arranged documents on the table while drinking steaming fragrant coffee.

, while looking at the briefings sent by various departments of the company.

The companies in these industries controlled by the Quante family all have leading positions.

Joachim sighed, "This is no longer something we can solve."

Quincy closed his eyes bitterly, "It's obvious, sir."

At this moment, Ferdinand Piech wanted to say who doesn’t know that Rolls-Royce is already owned by BMW and has little to do with us Volkswagen.

"What do you mean?" Ferdinand said:

"Yankee refused?"

Who said that the BBC is funded by the British government and belongs to the public television network?

Joachim sighed again, this was the third time he sighed in front of Ferdinand today.

But the problem is that the Volkswagen Group is already the most important core property of the Porsche family and the Piech family.

We are the most innocent ones.

"Sir, something happened. It's very troublesome."

One of the investors may have disappeared, but now is not the time for him to panic.

In the UK, its size is second only to the British Broadcasting Corporation, and is under the BBC.

Unfortunately, the call to Mr. Cooper did not go through. I only got a reply from Cooper's secretary, saying that Mr. Cooper was busy and was receiving important partners.

Ferdinand can ignore Joachim, who has the same position as himself.

He has already begun instructing BMW representatives to contact Smith Financial Group again.

The representative he sent to contact Smith Financial Group, and the BMW executive who first came into contact with Abel, was Rudd with a wry smile and nodded.

When faced with humiliation, they all had the same powerlessness to fight back and could only face it with tolerance.

"Good morning, Mick, I'm John Cooper, and here's the thing, I've decided to..."

Mick was a little confused.

The rapid knock on the door made Mick frown, who was still thinking about the problem.

"What's the matter? Quincy, look, I'm busy. I'm really worried about the ITV Digital thing."

This gentleman was also very unlucky. When he entered the market, the British ITV stock market was at its highest.

Ferdinand cursed a German curse and felt extremely angry and dissatisfied with Abel's behavior of staying out of the matter, as if Abel was the innocent person.

"Bang!"

After all, ITV has just gone through internal turmoil and lost 600 million pounds in five years due to ITV Digital.

Ferdinand's white eyebrows frowned high.

Joachim was surprised.

Quincey is another important figure trusted by the shareholders' meeting.

With trembling fingers, Mick Desmond took out the buzzing cell phone from his pocket.

Now, after exchanges with the country.

Mick's brows furrowed even more tightly, and he stretched out his hand to indicate to the other party to sit down before talking. However, Quincy, who had an extremely ugly expression, did not sit down, but said in a bitter and anxious tone:

For example, does anyone know that the backing of Vanlake Fashion is the Delton Company of the Quante family?

Does anyone know that Altana, the Quwant family, is behind the companies Vita Bir Ektidin and Muti Sannostor?

The status of this family in Germany is roughly equivalent to the status in the United States after the merger of Morgan and Rockefeller.

It's good now that BMW has backed down.

"Why--"

It's just the same as the original Byrd and John Wieland.

"Okay. Since it is what Mr. Quandt wants, I won't say anything. Joachim, the Rolls-Royce is yours now. If you are willing to let it go, it will reduce the public's trouble. It's not too late for me to be happy.

.”

Baird said.

They are not only engaged in the automotive industry, but also include textiles, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, etc.

"Why--"

"In the morning, when you went to that Yankee's territory, I received a call from Mr. Quandt. During the call, Quandt thought that as long as the conditions are not harsh, then we should give the Rolls-Royce to that Yankee."

Seeing that it was Quincy coming in, Mick put away the anger on his face and showed a kind smile.

He handed his trench coat to his secretary, and took a photo of the little secretary wrapped in a tight suit and skirt, which earned her a charming look.

Lead the British ITV to glory and become a business leader that investors can trust like those famous managers.

The patter of raindrops seems to indicate the fate and future of the German people.

The British ITV is a company he bought many shares of at a huge sum of money five years ago.

A small country and a prosperous people?

"That's pretty much what it means. But Mr. Piech, I hope you understand that Rolls-Royce is now the property of BMW. In addition, this is what Mr. Quandt meant. Our opinions are no longer important."

The company, founded in 1955, initially provided competition for the BBC.

Joachim thought for a while and said angrily to Ferdinand Piech:

"Mr. Piech, maybe this time we have to accept the blackmail of that American."

Facing the threat from the Yankees, Ferdinand was just like the two high-level wage earners.

"Go back to Berlin."

The time point they chose made it impossible for them to fight back.

As CEO, he has been trying to build British ITV into a TV station that surpasses the BBC through reforms.

"Abe Smith is shorting us? Why, we have no conflict with him? And ITV doesn't have much money either!"

After decades of development, ITV has become the largest commercial television network group in the UK.

Lest the BBC become the dominant player and monopolize the entire market.
