In the following days, Xia Yu devoted his main energy to the Bright Fund.

Affected by the overall environment, the financial industry also appears to be in a recession, and many financial industry practitioners are not well-off. Therefore, in the face of the attractive salary offered by the Bright Fund Company, many talents come to apply for jobs.

And because of the market environment, it is very difficult for the four headhunting companies entrusted by Xia Yu to poach people. In the face of the olive branch thrown by Xia Yu, many elites are willing to come and try.

Therefore, Xia Yu was interviewing people every day, and at the same time ordered the acquisition team that had been formed to collect information on the Rolls-Royce Group as soon as possible.

Of course, it is worth mentioning that Henry Howard is very enthusiastic about learning kung fu. Without Li Wuming leaving Xia Yu, he took the initiative to go to the Guangming Fund to find Li Wuming, and Xia Yu instructed Li Wuming to stay in one of the company's rooms Teaching Henry Howard in an empty room.

Sometimes Elena would also come along, and as a result, the siblings and Xia Yu got to know each other more and more.

In a flash, it was January 21st.

Xia Yu had just finished holding the operational deployment meeting of the Rolls-Royce temporary acquisition team in the large conference room, returned to his office and sat down, and saw George Berkeley walking in with a smile on his face.

Seeing this, Xia Yu also showed a smile. He knew that the acquisition was a success!

Early this morning, George Berkeley took his team to Pearson.

The Pearson Group let go directly, so the negotiation went very smoothly. George Berkeley also knew what the boss Xia Yu wanted, so when the Pearson Group was willing to talk, he also increased the price step by step along the rhythm.

For more than ten days, the price has been mentioned step by step to 16.5 million pounds, and the reserve price of Pearson Group has also dropped to 17.5 million pounds step by step.

The acquisition team judged this time to be a success, and prepared everything to head to Pearson.

"Take it?"

Xia Yu asked with a smile, a feeling of anticipation rose in his heart.

"Boss, we have signed an equity transfer contract. The purchase price is 17 million pounds. We will buy 71% of the equity of the Financial Times Company held by Pearson Group. As soon as the funds arrive, it will be effective and the equity will be handed over!"

"This is a signed agreement,

Please take a look! "

George Berkeley said and presented Xia Yu with a stack of contracts in a kraft paper bag.

George Berkeley was flushed and visibly excited because of the successful completion of the mission.

Xia Yu opened the kraft paper file bag, took out a stack of contracts, and quickly flipped through it. The key figures were recorded in his eyes and remembered in his heart.

Sure enough, it was the transfer price of 17 million pounds, and the transfer of the equity of the entire Financial Times Group, not just the magazine "Financial Times".

Xia Yu knows that in the Financial Times Group, in addition to the Financial Times, it also holds a 50% stake in the company where the Economist magazine is located, and also has assets such as the Economic Research Institute.

Of course, in addition to these software assets, the Financial Times Group also has hardware assets such as company premises and materials.

After packing it together, it is estimated that the Bright Fund spent 17 million pounds to buy 71% of the shares, which shows that the total value of the Financial Times Group is now close to 24 million pounds!

"Very well, you go and sign the payment slip for me, put the money into the account of Pearson Group, and complete the final acquisition process."

Xia Yu told George Berkeley.

"OK!"

"How many scattered shares have been acquired?"

Xia Yu suddenly asked again.

He knows that although George Berkeley has been storming the stake in Pearson Group, the 29% stake scattered in the hands of other small shareholders has also been divided into tasks, and employees are responsible for acquisitions separately.

George Berkeley replied immediately: "Boss, so far, we have received 18.4% of the equity, costing a total of 3.89 million pounds. The acquisition price is lower than the Pearson Group."

"The remaining 10.6% of the shares have not been acquired. It is not difficult. At most five days, the task can definitely be completed!"

Holding 89.4% of the shares of the Financial Times Group, George Berkeley is very confident. Those minority shareholders have to sell if they don't want to. Otherwise, as major shareholders, there are means to clean up them. As long as those minority shareholders are wise, they will take the initiative to let go.

These small shareholders are already in contact, as long as the news of Pearson Group's release is released, they are guaranteed to accept their fate one by one.

So five days is definitely enough!

"Five days? Yes, it's better to be early. After the acquisition is completed, immediately acquire the remaining 50% of The Economist's equity!"

Xia Yu nodded with satisfaction, thought about it, and instructed George Berkeley.

After George Berkeley answered the order, he calmed down a little, and suddenly thought of the answer to the question he asked when he left, and he felt that he had to tell his boss.

"Boss, the reason for the big change in Pearson's attitude has been found."

George Berkeley said truthfully, still puzzled.

Xia Yu's eyes narrowed, and he immediately asked, "Tell me about the situation in detail!"

"After signing the contract today, I had a chat with the chairman of Pearson Group, and he just mentioned that he didn't intend to sell the Financial Times Company, but because Duke Carter Howard communicated with their patriarch, the changed his mind."

"Boss, as for why Duke Carter Howard helped us, the reason is unknown."

George Berkeley said with a complicated expression.

George Berkeley didn't know, but Xia Yu understood, and his expression was a little different at this time.

He also didn't expect that Elena and Henry's father would help out, which was completely beyond his expectations.

Obviously, Duke Howard knew that he was buying the Financial Times Group. In order to repay him, he saved Henry and helped out. This is considered a favor.

This is a total surprise!

Now that he knew that it was Duke Carter Howard's handwriting, Xia Yu felt relieved.

Of course, although George Berkeley was still confused, there was no need to let him know what was going on here, so Xia Yu said to him with a relaxed expression: "Okay George, don't worry, I have something to do with Duke Howard, no I think he helped me."

George Berkeley suddenly looked at Xia Yu in amazement. He didn't expect Xia Yu to know Duke Carter Howard.

But this is the boss's secret. Since the boss didn't say anything, it's not convenient for him to ask again. Anyway, as long as he knows there is no problem.

"George, if there is nothing else, you will complete the equity delivery as soon as possible."

"The boss, I'm going out first!"

"Um!"

When George Berkeley withdrew, a small smile appeared on the corner of Xia Yu's mouth, and Bai was worried.

"But that's fine. I have a good relationship with Elena and Henry. Duke Carter Howard's attitude towards life is evident, which is very beneficial to me!"

"Remember that Hong Yi said that Carter Howard is still closely related to the Conservative Party, and he is in the middle of it!"

"Looks like a good grasp of..."
