I am a nobleman in England
Chapter 199
"Boom boom--"
The next morning, the faint noise made Arthur walk to the French window and look into the distance.
More than a dozen RVs and trucks parked in an empty area of the manor. A group of people are busy building a blue and white super large shed. Wherever the circus performs, the shed is placed wherever it is, becoming a landscape symbolizing strength .
The circus invited this time is a wonderful and weird circus called the horror circus. The circus is composed of strange people and freaks from all over the world with stunts, masters of visual illusions, and hairy people. Werewolf, a blessed-in-disguise rubber man with genetic mutations, and a singer born with cartilage...
Since the last century, European aristocrats have had the tradition of watching dwarfs, handicapped people and other freaks perform circuses, but such performances in modern times have almost disappeared.
In the words of the head of this circus, the terrorist circus is a big family formed for people like them, where they will not be discriminated against because of the strangeness.
However, to be honest, although Arthur did not discriminate against these strange people and freaks, he still felt a bit heavy. However, after seeing all the members who came this time, Arthur had to feel that the horror circus was indeed true. Well deserved, it is full of fright and fear. It is definitely the most suitable show for a Halloween party, and it is definitely worth the price.
Instead, Eddie and Emilia are full of great interest in this circus. They not only communicated with the members of the circus with laughter, but also exclaimed and sighed from time to time.
With the arrival of the circus, the entire Boleyn Manor was completely broken, and became extremely lively and busy.
The media reports let the people in all surrounding towns and villages know about the carnival party prepared by Bolin Manor for Halloween. Not only did it attract numerous media reports, but also the one hundred booths prepared by the butler Paul. It was completed in a blink of an eye, and there were still many calls coming in for consultation, but Paul even wanted to expand the number of booths again.
Seeing this Halloween party getting bigger and bigger, Arthur really didn’t know whether to cry or laugh. In the end, before Halloween arrived, Bolin Manor began to gather a lot of fun and curious people. The public also had to invite the police to enter in advance to maintain law and order.
"...Paul, I regret it a bit." In the study, Arthur looked at the crowded circus area far away from the manor, the crowd was full of people, and there was an unusually lively scene. Some dumbfounded turning around and said to the slightly laughing butler Paul.
"Ahem, sorry, Lord, I did not expect that people would be so enthusiastic about the first opening of Boleyn Manor. However, Lord, this Halloween carnival has already credited 100,000 pounds, deducting the horror circus. We still have a surplus of 30,000 pounds for the group’s invitation costs and security management costs.
The horror circus will stay for three days. The box office for these three days belongs to us. In the morning, I also received phone consultations from many companies. They intend to set up billboards at the carnival and promote them. They will send people over in the afternoon. Negotiations, you will get a few advertising fees."
"..." Hearing the report from the butler Paul, Arthur was speechless. No wonder he couldn't see his figure all day. Arthur couldn't help but shook his head and laughed: "I didn't expect to make money so much!"
"The main thing is novelty and curiosity. Whether it is the opening of our manor or the horror circus, the surrounding people have been motivated by the hype of the media. In fact, even the horror circus did not expect that there will be so many The audience bought tickets to watch the show. Head Haze said half-seriously and half-jokingly that he regretted being reserved by us, but he didn't expect the box office to be so popular.
After three days of performance, if the venues are full, we can definitely make a fortune after deducting the cost of chartering the venue. This is also unintentional cultivation, but we have harvested rich fruits."Butler Paul reports with a smile.
"Well, there are two days left. You are fully responsible." Although Arthur's net worth will not act on this little money, since he can be self-sufficient, he can still bring such a big influence. He is still very happy.
"Okay, Lord." Paul the butler responded with a smile.
When Paul the butler left, Arthur looked at the lively scene in the distance and smiled slightly. When he first came here, didn't he just want to open up the manor?
Now that I think about it, I was unintentional. Anyway, in the future, he will not spend too much time in the castle. After all, to start a career, London is where he should stay.
International metropolises are the foundation of the future prosperity of the world.
Thinking of his career, Arthur's complexion changed slightly, and his brows frowned. The acquisition negotiation team, led by Angela, had contacted the Bristol Coastal (Natural Gas) Power Station Board of Directors and started preliminary negotiations.
Regarding the acquisition, the Bristol Coastal (Natural Gas) Power Station Board did not show any rejection, and even welcomed it very much. This is exactly the same as what Angela knew and introduced to Arthur.
However, things are not that simple, because the other party wants to sell 50% of the equity, but the acquirer can only get dividends, but cannot intervene in the management and operation rights of the power plant, only as an investor Way exists.
Such a request, let alone Arthur, even Angela, who planned a completed business empire for Arthur, could not agree to it. Not only did he directly reject the'ridiculous and rude' request of the other party’s negotiation team, but also Threatening the opponent's negotiating team on the spot to make a solicitation for acquisition.
Although Arthur may spend a little more money in this way, it is undoubtedly a threat of disaster for the power plant management team to form a negotiation team.
Because once Angela officially sends a letter to bid for the acquisition of Bristol's coastal (natural gas) power station, the management of the power plant must inform each shareholder of the details of the acquisition, and is eager to sell the power plant shares in his hand to raise funds for relief For the British government with a budget deficit, this is definitely a piece of good news that cannot be desired.
Once Arthur’s invitation to the acquisition is successful, and he seizes the majority of shares and becomes the major shareholder and actual owner of the power plant, then these managers who are careful and do not want to let go of management will face a major purge from the new boss.
This situation is undoubtedly a situation where both lose and lose, and it is a situation that no one wants to see.
After all, Arthur’s money did not come from a strong wind. Anything that can be done with 200 million yuan, an extra pound, is a loss, and there is a real stalemate with the current management. Even if the acquisition is successful, the disobedient will be ignored. Kicked away will also cause a short-term turbulence in the power plant, which will undoubtedly affect the operation of the power plant and cause unnecessary losses.
"...So at present, the negotiations are still in a stalemate. The biggest concern of the management of the Bristol Coastal (Natural Gas) Power Station is that once the boss becomes the owner, some of them will lose their jobs. This is the biggest focus of difficulty. .
But we can't give them a firm promise. After all, no one knows what will happen in the future. We can't put ourselves in shackles. Personnel rights can never be used for transactions. Otherwise, we will even be After the acquisition is successful, it is difficult to completely control the power plant!"
Listening to Angela’s explanation and analysis on the phone, Arthur nodded with deep conviction, and then said, “You’re right. Since I’m a major shareholder, I naturally hope to control the power plant. Management rights, operation rights, personnel rights, financial control rights, etc., are all in our hands. They are just my employees!
To be honest, I hate what they are doing now, which is beyond the scope of their management staff, and even threatens investors and shareholders in turn. I definitely won't use this kind of people!
In this way, Angela, you can contact the management in private, and you can give them a separate promise. Within one year, I will not move them. As long as they are capable, I will not move them in the future. Of course, if you are not capable, you can only apologize Up.
Also, disintegrate them from the inside and let them "recommend" the most happiest leader of the dance. I think this kind of instability is the object we must cut off. I hate those who are under the influence, even if No matter how capable he is, he can't put himself in the right position, and I will definitely not use it for anyone who wants to get something that does not belong to him!"
