Chapter 724: What you see is a more distant future
A car manufacturer, no matter how awesome it is in the future, is just like a car builder, so a company is worthy of being the top nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire as a banned property?
Of course not. If Rolls-Royce will grow into the world's second largest military engine and second largest civilian engine manufacturer in the future, you will understand.
That’s right, the most awesome thing about Rolls-Royce is not about car business, but about engines, and aircraft engines. The famous cars in later generations were just a small business of Rolls-Roycece.
In this era, Rolls-Royce is the supplier of the Royal Air Force aircraft engines of the Dark Yuan Empire and the powertrain supplier of the Royal Navy ships of the Dark Yuan Empire.
You said that such a company that represents the country's top technology was accused of being acquired by an indigenous person from the East. How can the nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire not get angry? Let's not talk about whether Liu Lang has money or not. Even if he has money, he cannot sell such a company, either the royal family or the cabinet.
This involves not money, but national interests. No country can tolerate the core technology of its own country's top armed forces is in the hands of a foreign company.
"Hehe, Sir William, the business is settled slowly! I offer you, you can bargain." Liu Lang seemed to have expected the attitude of the nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire. The smile on his face was very gentle and he said calmly.
"Col. Liu, I came to negotiate the sulfonamide business with great sincerity, but I don't want my future partners to be so ignorant. Since you have mentioned Rolls-Royce, I must also know the company very well. It involves not only the civilian market, but also the Royal Navy and Air Force, and the sea and airspace protection of the entire empire. I think, at this point, not to mention me a mere sir, even His Highness the Queen would not agree to this impossible request." The noble of the Dark Yuan Empire took a deep breath and reiterated his point of view again.
That's very obvious. You might be able to bargain with anything else, but this one really doesn't work.
"But as far as I know, Rolls & Rolls has now reached the verge of bankruptcy due to lack of orders. Why bother with such an important company to starve it to death? If possible, maybe I can restore it to life?" Liu Lang did not give up his efforts and continued to lobby hard.
Yes, this is the real main reason why Liu Lang dared to open his mouth and wanted to touch this future aero engine manufacturer that was not allowed to live in the field of aircraft engines.
As an engine manufacturer, Rolls-Royce not only sells aircraft engines, but also gas turbines on ships. At this time when the world entered the ocean era, the powertrain on ships was the main source of profits for the company.
This is the most important purpose of Liu Lang coming to Xizhou. As long as he can get involved in this company, the future kingdom will be much easier in the aviation field than in the play, rather than being blindly controlled by polar bears.
Now, Liu Lang not only has to focus on dealing with the Black Hawk Empire, but he hopes to do more for his motherland with his memory.
"Oh? Can you restore this company to life? What? Is it the Kingdom to build cruisers? Or battleships? If there is such a business, I think Mr. Henry of Rolls and Rolls will be interested in talking to you." I have to say that although the nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire at this time no longer had an angry look on their faces, they were replaced by a strong disdain.
A series of questions revealed the obscure contempt of the gentlemen of the Dark Yuan Empire. Because, whether it is a cruiser or a battleship, for the kingdom where even guns and cannons have to be imported from abroad or even borrowed a tiger to buy them, they can only have ideas in dreams. Abbreviation, dream.
Regarding this, let alone the nobles of the Imperial Empire despise, even Liu Lang had to admit that the kingdom at this time was really poor, and it was no wonder that others looked down on it.
"Just, that's better. Just let me see Mr. Henry, the president of Rolls and Rolls, and ask him to give me fifteen minutes. Even if this condition is completed, what do you think?" Liu Lang was not angry because of the disdain of the nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire. He changed his mind and said again.
"In this case, my William family will take advantage of you. I will satisfy you this requirement, and you can make another request." The nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire thought for a moment and nodded.
"Hehe, then when our business group can invest in Rolls-Royce, please ask the Sir to help our consortium say good things in the cabinet, okay?" Liu Lang said with a light smile.
"Although I don't know that Colonel Liu's confidence can convince the stubborn old man Henry, I also promise you that for God's sake." A trace of helplessness flashed on the face of the nobles of the Dark Yuan Empire.
In his opinion, Liu Lang's request was almost impossible to achieve just like not mentioning it. As far as he knew, several companies in the White Eagle Kingdom had already contacted Rolls and Rolls, and were almost without exception rejected by the stubborn Rolls and Rolls president Henry.
The proud gentlemen of the Dark Yuan Empire didn't even take the White Eagle sages seriously. Will they look down on the natives from the Eastern Kingdoms?
If you are a person, you will be fooled.
