Honda has made a lot of efforts to sell the Honda team, but with the passage of time, the investors who have passed the scandal with the Honda team have not made follow-up progress, which has made many people realize that the previous Those acquisition news are nothing more than smoke bombs from Honda.

Buying an F1 team for US$1 sounds very cheap, but the debt of US$170 million behind the Honda team is enough to deter any buyer. What's more, this round of economic crisis has spread all over the world. The economic situation next year will definitely become worse. Investing in an F1 team at this time is obviously not a good choice for many investors, not to mention one. Caravan with debt.

With the coming of the new year, the International Automobile Federation also announced a new reform plan for the Formula One race. In order to cope with the economic crisis, the International Automobile Federation proposed a conservation reform plan. The most important point is to ban the test during the season. This is good news for the small team. The small team has less funds. It is impossible to conduct a lot of mid-season tests like the big team, and the big team has no objection. The financial crisis has made their life difficult, so Saving can save.

However, the Honda team still had no hope of selling. Until January 19, the first public test of the new season began, the Honda team still did not find a buyer.

The employees of the Honda team are confused about the future. If the team cannot find a buyer after two months, they will face unemployment. In the current economic environment, they do not want to find a suitable job. The easy thing, after all, there are only a few teams in the racing industry, and each team has a fixed team. Without the addition of a new team, no one needs new employees.

Rose Brown is still very calm. In the past month, he has devoted his energy to the design of the new car, especially the double-layer diffuser. As the killer of Rose Brown, it has been designed and formed. Just wait for the new car engine to arrive. It can be assembled on the car for testing.

Zhang Guan spent a Chinese New Year more comfortably. Other activities in the Chinese New Year pushed away all activities, staying at home honestly, staying with his parents and enjoying this short-lived tranquility.

The Tian Association, the Net Association and the Basketball Association all sent people and Zhang Guan to discuss the new year's game plan. Given Zhang Guan’s current status in the domestic sports industry, it is obviously impossible for these regulatory agencies to force Zhang Guan to participate in the competition, so of course the future competition plan must be discussed with Zhang Guan, and Zhang Guan also won enough honors in the Olympics. , Even if it means to take a break for a while, these management agencies will give them permission.

The Spring Festival is Zhang Guan’s rare break, and at the same time, Ross Brown finally revealed his fangs. He personally flew to Japan to discuss the acquisition of Honda Team with Honda Fukui President.

Japan, Tokyo, Honda Corporation.

Honda Fukui, President of the Honda Company, gritted his teeth, because just now, he received an offer for the acquisition of the Honda team. The reason for his anger was not because the offer was too low, but because the offer was made by the Honda team. Ceo rose brown

In Ross Brown's view, the Honda team is almost finished. At this time, he came forward to buy the team and avoid so many employees of the team from losing their jobs. Therefore, he can be regarded as the savior of the team and will certainly be unanimously praised by everyone.

But in the eyes of Fukui, Ross Brown did it all. He was also an employee of the company. When the team encountered a crisis, he not only did not want to find ways to help the team through the difficulties, but wanted to take the opportunity to eat his own boss. It must be an unethical behavior that has been rejected.

This is the difference in corporate culture. Westerners do not have a one-size-fits-all concept. It is normal for workers to change jobs. As long as there are sufficient benefits, the former employees have no problem with the boss’s industry. The corporate culture of Japan is a one-off process. A person entering a company is like entering a family. As long as the company does not fail, it will stay there for life. If the company encounters difficulties, employees will even be resourceful. Salary cuts to help companies overcome difficulties. The same kind of thing is placed in European and American countries. If companies dare to reduce their salaries, it is estimated that the collective strike wave will come soon.

It is precisely this cultural difference that made Fukui violently violent, but Rose Brown put on a savior appearance, which made a negotiation between the two unhappy.

However, Fukui could not find any other buyers for a while. If he waits for the start of this season, the Honda team may become worthless, so Fukui can only continue to talk to Ross Brown.

"We built a wind tunnel test system specifically for the team. Our wind tunnel is equipped with metal raceways. Four years ago, the same wind tunnel built by the Sauber team in Switzerland cost more than 45 million US dollars. In particular, it will cost more than US$60 million to build this wind tunnel test system," said Fukui.

Rose Brown smiled slightly, he stayed by the wind tunnel system for several weeks in a row, and he was much better than Fukui in understanding the wind tunnel.

Only listening to Rose Brown said: "60 million US dollars is the price of the new wind tunnel, and last year, Minardi bought a second-hand wind tunnel for only 3 million US dollars, plus 2 million US dollars in conversion fees, Five million dollars can achieve the same effect and IMHO, the motor of the Honda team’s wind tunnel test system has exceeded the maintenance period, so even if it is bought, it will cost a lot of money to maintain and replace some parts."

"Our engine output test system is the world's top, and 3 of them can test every slight difference. It is just to develop this system. Our Honda company spent more than 100 million US dollars, which is Ferrari, and we can't do it. We have such an advanced system," Fukui said.

"But this test system is only useful for the manufacturer's team." Rose Brown waved his hand, and then said: "If it is a Ferrari or Renault manufacturer team, it may be interested in this system because they are also the production of automotive engines. They need this kind of test, and after I acquired the team, the team became an independent team. We do not have the ability to produce engines ourselves. We only need a few sets of data from the engine supplier, so this system is We are meaningless"

Rose Brown paused, and then said: "But IMHO, your system is probably not so easy to sell. In the current Formula One, there are only four manufacturers teams left, whether it is Ferrari, Mercedes-Benz, BMW, etc. Or Toyota, they should not be interested in Honda’s system"

"Our test track in the UK"

"Bald tires will be re-enabled next year, and the area between the tires and the ground has increased by 17, so the track needs to be rebuilt"

"Our oil simulation test"

"The kinetic energy recovery system was added to next year's rules, and the existing oil quantity simulation test has been abolished, and development must be repeated"

Fukui and Roose Brown, you say one thing, I said that every time Fukui said an advantage, it was immediately turned into a shortcoming by Rose Brown, and the result was that within an hour, even Fukui felt that the company spent a lot of money to build the Honda team. Become worthless.

This is perhaps the toughest negotiation that Fukui has encountered. There is a saying that the confidant and the other are invincible. However, as the team's CEO, Ross Brown clearly knows everything about the team better than Fukui, which has kept Fukui at a clear disadvantage in the negotiations. What's more, Rose Brown is definitely the most insider in Formula One. A few words can't refute what Fukui said.

Than understand, Fukui is no match for Ross Brown, more professional, Fukui is more than Rose Brown. The situation in this negotiation is already one-sided

However, Fukui also knew that even if he came for another person, he would not have achieved better results than him, because it was Rose Brown.

"The traitor is an abominable traitor. Our Honda company has a Formula One team and the world's top sports. As a result, in this traitor, it has almost become a pile of worthless copper and iron." Fukui wiped his forehead. The sweat on it, and negotiating with an opponent who knows himself better than himself, is really too stubborn to continue.
