		Nanjing had faced two competitors in its bid to buy Rover's assets – an offer from China's state-owned Shanghai Automotive Industry Corp., which prompted the company's collapse earlier this year when it pulled out of talks about a merger, and one by British businessman David James to buy two parts of the company.
		Unions had supported the SAIC deal because they believed it was the most likely to restart substantial production at Rover's Longbridge plant in central England, which was forced to close with the loss of 6,000 jobs when the company collapsed.
		Lomas said Nanjing plans to begin hiring staff to implement its plan for the company, which includes relocating the engine plant and some of the car production to China, while retaining some production in Britain.
