Rebirth

"It is a very great idea to divide the entire bank into four independent banks, so that it will be easier to adapt to the environment in all parts of the world to develop business, and it is based on retail banks, with strong stability and risk resistance. It is indeed a perfect idea. "After hearing Li Feng's words, John Rupert smiled and clapped his hand in admiration.

"Rupert, I hope to get your support!" Li Feng replied with a smile.

"John, I am only a named director at Standard Bank." John Rupert, the South African tycoon, replied with a smile.

"Hehe..., the name can also be changed into a real name. I think the members of the Standard Bank's board of directors and even the shareholders' meeting should not be united. Some people will always object.

As long as you persuade most people, then you can directly buy the shares of the opponents. At least I can guarantee that the shares will be recovered at a price higher than 10% of your purchase price, as long as you are willing.

Moreover, I believe in the influence of the Rupert family in South Africa."Li Feng replied with a smile again.

Li Feng directly gave him a guarantee. The implication is that it is easy to make your named director become a real-name director. As long as you invest in the acquisition of shares of those who oppose it, you will not become a real-name director.

In the end, it is a reassurance for others. If you don't want the shares, you can resell it to Li Feng again and reclaim it at least 10 points higher than his purchase price.Naturally, in Li Feng's opinion, the possibility of acquiring shares is very small. After all, no one is a fool. Everyone knows that Li Feng's vision is really to be fulfilled, and the future is boundless.

...

"John, I will feed back what you and Standard Chartered mean to the Standard Bank board. I hope we can all get a satisfactory result." Rupert replied with a smile after thinking for a moment.

"OK, then I'll wait for your good news. I talked about the bank. Next, let's talk about something pleasant. Rupert, your Richemont Group is the goal of my Shahua Group."

"Haha..., your other side Sahua is now making a big wave in the high-end consumer goods industry. Many brands are in danger for everyone, thinking about whether they will become your acquisition targets." Rupert laughed. Joked.

"Haha...I can't help it, you should have seen it. I have three or two kittens. I want to become a big group like Richemont and LV. I just started. I really admire Ruber. Especially you, give up the family business and enter the luxury goods industry. From the development of Richemont Group today, you can see that Rupert has made a good deal." Li Feng replied with feeling.

In fact, in the last few years of the 1990s, although there was a financial crisis in Asia, the economic development in Europe and even the Americas was outstanding. The Internet bubble of the US is not to be discussed, and all parts of Europe are also OK. As a result, luxury groups such as Richemont, which currently dominate the European and American markets, operate very well.

In the first few years of the new century, the Internet bubble burst, and the economic development of Europe and the United States was slow or even regressed. Until about 2008, the development of the luxury goods industry was restricted. At that time, the economies of Europe and the United States regressed, while the economic development of Asia represented by China Fast, but after all, it has just started, and the market for top luxury goods has just started just like the economy.

In the first few years of the new century, the luxury industry was actually not good, especially the top luxury brand industry. At that time Richemont and LV Group acquired some second-tier brands to increase investment in these second-tier brands and slow down First-tier brands have survived for several years in the form of small profits but quick turnover.

For example, in the years after the new century, Richemont almost went bankrupt. Rupert eventually became the CEO himself, sold half of the family’s shares in British American Tobacco, and repaid the group’s debts of US$10 to survive the storm.

...

When the economy represented by Huaxia has completely risen, the huge demographic dividend of Huaxia will accompany the rapid development of the luxury goods industry. At that time, LV, Richemont and other groups have begun a new round of top luxury goods expansion, making a lot of money for China and Asia. Banknotes all over.

The only thing Richemont knows is that at the time of his own rebirth, China, like Ports, was originally a dominant brand in Europe and America, but was only a second-tier brand in Europe and America. It has begun to decline, and the development of top brands is in full swing.

However, after nearly 10 years of golden development, the top luxury goods market in China has slowly begun to slow down. According to Li Feng's eyes today, in China, from around 10 years to 20 years, this period should be It is the golden age of China's luxury goods.

After all, at the time when China's economy was rising, those wealthy classes in China were accustomed to their original hardships, and suddenly discovered that there were so many top luxury items in their lives that could be embellished. Therefore, the luxury goods industry developed rapidly.

In Li Feng's words, at the beginning, he was a local turtle and a nouveau riche. Suddenly, he saw that the rich in Europe and the United States used to live like this. The concept of luxury has entered the eyes of many wealthy classes in China.

However, after 10 years of super development, the average wealthy class has slowly returned to rationality. At that time, these top brands will have to think about the initial crazy development. It is impossible. At that time, the market was also blooming. when.

This is actually like a reincarnation, like Europe and the United States, when the level of development is generally or even backwards, the second and third-tier brands are developed, and the form of small profits but quick turnover is adopted. When the second-speed economy is developing rapidly, efforts are made to develop top brands, etc., top luxury The profit of the product is very lucrative.

Today, Li Feng is preparing to deploy ahead of schedule. In addition to top brands, those second and third-tier brands are among Li Feng’s acquisition targets. This way, his luxury goods group’s ability to resist risks is greatly enhanced. This is why Li Feng is right. One of the reasons why Ports and other second- and third-tier brands value it.

......

Now with Li Feng's wealth and the forward-looking vision with the future generations, naturally he would not think that his group would follow Richemont and LV.

In the original history, the Pinot family has become one of the three luxury goods groups by virtue of its own development, although in terms of ranking, it is at the bottom of the three.Now with the support of a super predator like Li Feng, and at the end of the three big three, that would be too small for Li Feng as a rebirth.

With the experience of the past two years, Li Feng's vision can be said to be completely different from that of the ordinary person in his previous life. Such a development vision cannot be analyzed by himself in his previous life.

However, nowadays, from the economic development of various parts of the world, the analysis of industry development prospects, etc., it can be said that Li Feng has completely separated from the small Internet cafe owner in his previous life.

To a large extent, the knowledge of vision depends on a person’s status in society. Those big men who emerged from the previous life in China, to be honest, initially had any cultural knowledge, but later, not all of them became the leaders of the national economic circle. guy.

Isn’t it just that as one’s status in the society rises and has experienced people, what kind of position a person is in the social hierarchy, what kind of words will others say, what experience, knowledge, etc. Wait.

"John, your Shahua is not as simple as three or two kittens. I have heard a lot of news about your group before. I have contacted several brand owners and managers, which is important for the future development of your group. There are various speculations and different reactions. I am looking forward to it. After all, we are the same type of people.” Rupert replied with a smile.

"People of the same type? They are indeed the same type of people." Li Feng echoed with a smile.

...

The positioning of the two in the luxury goods industry is somewhat similar to that of similar people. Whether it is Richemont or Peanshahua or LV, the luxury group wants to develop, acquisition is naturally the main method, after all, the orderly inheritance of top brands is that. point.

Richemont mainly focuses on jewelry and watches, while Li Feng currently has the most direct competitive relationship with fashion brands and LV. Therefore, for the development of Shahua on the other side, at least currently in John Ruber In particular, it has little effect on himself.

It’s a pity that Rupert is not the roundworm in Li Feng’s stomach after all. He doesn’t know what Li Feng thinks in his heart. After a while, maybe it will be like the current Arnott of LV and regard Shahua from the other side as the most direct opponent. Up.
