I Want To Be a Rich Man on Hong Kong Island

In the conference room of the Barclays Bank Group, Keira led the team to negotiate with the Rothschild family;

I saw Kaila said confidently: "It's a very simple way: we will buy the shares of Standard Chartered Bank in your hands at a premium of 70%; similarly, you will also buy the shares of Barclays Bank in our hands at a premium of 70%. "

After Keira finished speaking, the Rothschild family and Barclays almost didn't go berserk. This and that were peace talks, obviously extortion!

Barclays holds a 15% stake in Standard Chartered, worth $510 million based on a 70% premium;

The Keira family also holds 15% of the shares of Barclays Bank, which is worth a full US$2.85 billion if calculated at a 70% premium.

Obviously, once the transaction is made at this price, Barclays will lose a price difference of 900 million US dollars!

William Rothschild sneered: "Ms. Keira, don't you think too well! The highest premium you paid for the acquisition of Barclays Bank is only 50%!"

Keira retorted: "The fact is: we still have a chance to take down Barclays Bank, and you can only be a shareholder in Standard Chartered Bank! That is to say, both of our banks can hold holdings; besides, you provoked it." The war has led to a series of fund transfers such as loans and fundraising for my company, and the losses in it, do we have to bear it?"

Chuck Rothschild chimed in: "Barclays, you never had a chance!"

Peter Lynch quickly responded: "We have mobilized 8 billion pounds and plan to initiate an acquisition at a 100% premium. You actually doubt our strength; if we can't reach an agreement today, that's what we want to see!"

The words of Peter Lynch surprised the Rothschild family and the Barclays executives;

The Kaila family mobilized a cash flow of 20 billion U.S. dollars so quickly, and they don't have a bank in the UK (the newly acquired Standard Chartered does not count), how can it be so fast?

What these people don't know is that the Wu family has saved a full US$20 billion in Switzerland;

As Switzerland with a well-developed banking industry, it will naturally be transferred to the UK soon.

William Rothschild and Chuck Rothschild communicated with each other, and the final conclusion was that the Rothschild family should not gamble!

"The 70% premium is still too high, we can only accept a 60% premium! After all, the 10% price difference is enough for you to make up for the loss of fund transfer!" William Rothschild lowered his tone,

Sincerely.

Even the consultants of Lloyds Bank and the Bank of England were shocked to see such an old-fashioned family subdued!

Thinking about it carefully, if you were on your own side, you would really have to give in to such a rich and daring family.

Of course, the reason of this family is also valid, because they were not the first to hostile takeover;

Otherwise, this kind of hostile takeover for no reason will be resisted by all families and nobles.

This time, the Kaila family has already used public opinion to win everyone's sympathy;

After all, at the beginning, the Kaila family was making a good-faith acquisition with Standard Chartered Bank;

When the shareholders of Standard Chartered Bank basically agreed, Barclays Bank (Rothschild family) took a stick;

Whoever it is, will not let it go;

In addition, the Rothschild family has a bad reputation on the European continent;

So, this time everyone is on the side of the Keira family!

Seeing that the Rothschild family was subdued, Keira didn't want to entangle herself in this anymore. She had too many things to do;

For example, to rectify Standard Chartered Bank and strengthen investment in Lufeng Automobile Group, Metro Group will also have to make big moves.

"Then both parties will trade at a 60% premium!"

Keira also took a step back and sold her shares at a 60% premium;

This move will also allow the Keira family to earn an extra 50 million US dollars, and they can buy a super yacht for their man, Keira thought.

"it is good!"

Both parties finally breathed a sigh of relief at the same time!

The impact of this large-scale hostile takeover is too great. Even the Prime Minister has acted as a peacemaker, and as a participant in the war, he is also under great pressure.

 …

Two flowers bloom, each representing a branch.

Compared with the troubled business in the UK, the Wu family's business in the United States is much smoother!

Although Disney's acquisition of ABC is a very large and important acquisition;

But Wu Xianlei has too many allies. Two of the top ten consortiums in the United States (the Mellon consortium and the California consortium) are important shareholders of Disney;

In addition, after Reagan experienced the shooting incident, he began to care about the acquisition case, and finally the barrier that was stuck in the government was loosened.

ABC headquarters.

Sitting in the most honored position here, Wu Xianlei said to the new ABC President Michael Eisner: "After you take office, there are three things that you must do right now!"

Michael Eisner was originally the vice president of ABC, but he was recruited by Wu Xianlei to Disney and became his assistant—the vice president; now he returned to ABC again and became the president.

The chairman of Disney is Roy Disney, which is more meaningful than an actual position. After all, Disney is a surname. If no one from the Disney family holds an important position in the company, something is missing;

Wu Xianlei serves as the president of Disney and controls the highest power of Disney.

Michael Eisner was introduced by Wu Guangyao to his son Wu Xianlei. The purpose was to integrate Disney's resources and maximize the benefits of these resources.

It was Wu Guangyao's suggestion that Michael Eisner was transferred from the vice president of Disney, the parent company, to the president of ABC this time;

Because Wu Guangyao knows that this Michael Eisner has ambitions, but he is also very good at integrating resources;

In the previous life, when Michael Eisner was the president of Disney, he raised funds crazily and diluted the shares of the founders;

Therefore, it is better for such ambitious and capable people to be placed in the ABC;

Because ABC just lacks such talents, it is catching up with the other two American TV stations head-on.

"Speak, BOSS!" Michael Eisner said humbly.

No way, although my boss is young, he is very capable, and more importantly, ambitious and capable;

Therefore, I can only succumb to the dollar-high wages and dividends.

Wu Xianlei said: "First, ABC and Disney will form a stronger and more comprehensive TV network, which is up to you!"

Disney has its own TV channel, a children's channel;

As early as 1976, ABC launched its own communication satellite and established a television network;

Of course, there is still a lot of potential to be tapped!

Michael Eisner nodded and said, "This matter is really urgent!"

Wu Xianlei continued: "After you took office, you immediately worked hard on the attention of the news and the speed of response; it should be the same as CBS and NBC, or even better!"

Michael Eisner said: "Then Star Media, can you provide some help!"

Star Media is the parent company of Disney, and ABC can only be regarded as the grandson company of Star Media;

At this time, the Wu family held 90% of the shares in Star Media (unlisted), Star Media held 30% of Disney’s shares, and Disney held 70% of the shares of American Radio and Television, forming a heavy holding.

Among them, the family office holds 15% of the shares of Star Media, Wu Xianlei personally holds 75% of the shares of Star Media, and the other 10% of the shares are in the hands of Kaila and the original shareholders of Star Media;

The family office also holds a 10% stake in Disney, and Tiger Fund and Bridgewater Associates together hold a 5% stake in Disney.

Wu Xianlei nodded and said: "Yes, let Star Media and ABC strengthen cooperation, even all-round cooperation!"

Michael Eisner said: "Thank you BOSS for your support!"

Wu Xianlei waved his hand, indicating that you are welcome.

Then, Wu Xianlei took out a stack of materials and said: "Third, this is a program outline, you go to prepare it, hope it will bring us good luck!"

Michael Eisner took it curiously, and immediately began to read;

After a long time, Michael Eisner said: "It's a very simple game, but it's also full of temptation! 'Who can become a millionaire', this is probably the dream of most American people!"

Wu Xianlei said with a smile: "Whether the effect is good or not depends on your planning! However, I am very optimistic about the ratings of this program!"

Michael Eisner looked at Wu Xianlei with some admiration, his boss is really talented!

The boss entered Disney and did many things praised by business people:

Just investing in Japan Disneyland has made a fortune in property value. The most important thing is that the Japanese accept American culture very much;

At the same time, Disney has shot several classic cartoons and movies in recent years, and the product quality has been greatly improved;

In the end, it also won the MGM production company. It should be noted that the boss of MGM is an English countess (Chris), who is notoriously rich and enjoys the title of "hotel king" and "gambler king" in the United States. say!
