Chapter 653 [Double Harvest in Career! 】

Barclays Bank Group meeting room, Kayla led the team in negotiations with the Rohill family;

I saw Kayla confidently saying: "The simple way: We buy your Standard Chartered stocks at a premium of 70%; similarly, you also buy Barclays stocks in our hands at a premium of 70%. "

Kayla finished speaking, the Rohill family and Barclays Bank almost did not go violently, here and there are peace talks, obviously blackmail!

Barclays Bank holds 15% of Standard Chartered Bank shares, which is worth US$510 million based on a 70% premium;

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

Obviously, once the transaction is made at this price, Barclays Bank will lose 900 million US dollars in spread!

William Rohill sneered: "Ms. Kayla, are you thinking too good! The highest premium for your acquisition of Barclays Bank is only 50%!"

Kayla replied: "The fact is: we still have a chance to take down Barclays Bank, and you can only be a shareholder in Standard Chartered Bank! In other words, both of our banks can hold a controlling stake; besides, you provoked it. The war has led to a series of capital transfers such as loans and fund-raising from the companies under my control. Does the loss have to be borne by us?"

Chuck Lowhill interjected: "Barclays Bank, you have no chance to get it!"

Peter Lynch quickly responded: “We have mobilized £8 billion and intend to initiate an acquisition at a premium of 100%. You actually doubt our strength; if we can’t agree today, that’s what we want to see!”

Peter Lynch’s words surprised the Rohill family and the top Barclays Bank;

The Keira family mobilized so quickly to $20 billion in cash flow, and they don’t have a bank in the UK (not counting the newly acquired Standard Chartered), how can it be so fast?

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

As a well-developed banking industry, Switzerland will naturally soon be able to transfer to the UK.

William Rohill and Chuck Rohill talked to each other, and the final conclusion is that the Rohill family should not bet!

"The 70% premium is still too high. We can only accept 60% of the premium! After all, the 10% difference is enough for you to make up for the loss of capital transfer!" William Rohill said in a low tone and sincerely said.

Seeing this kind of old-fashioned family service soft, even the consultants of Lloyds Bank and the Bank of England were shocked!

Thinking about it carefully, I changed to my own side, and when I met such a rich and daring family, I really had nothing to do with it.

Of course, the reason for this family is also valid, because they were not the first to take the lead in hostile acquisition;

Otherwise, this unprovoked hostile takeover will be resisted by all families and nobles.

And this time, the Kaila family has long used public opinion to win everyone’s sympathy;

After all, at the beginning, the Kayla family was buying in good faith with Standard Chartered Bank;

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

If you change who you are, you won’t let it go;

Plus, the Lohill family has a bad reputation on the European continent;

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

Kayla sees that the Roshir family is soft, and doesn’t want to be entangled in it anymore, she has too many things to do;

For example, the rectification of Standard Chartered Bank and the strengthening of investment in the Lufeng Motor Group will also require the Metro Group to make major moves.

"Then both sides trade at a 60% premium!"

Kayla also took a step back and sold his shares at a premium of 60%;

This move can also make the Kaila family earn an extra 50 million US dollars, and can buy a super yacht for her own man, Kaila thought.

"good!"

The two sides 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 it is also very stressful to participate in the war on both sides.

Two flowers bloom, one on each table.

Compared with the unexpected events in the UK, the Wu family's career 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 consortia 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, and eventually the government's trap was loosened.

American Broadcasting Corporation headquarters.

Wu Xianlei sat in the most noble position here, and said to the new ABC president Michael Eisner: "After you take office, there are three things that must be done urgently!"

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

The chairman of Disney is Roy Disney, which is more meaningful than an actual position. After all, Disney is a surname. If there are no people from the Disney family in the company to hold important positions, something will be missing;

Wu Xianlei assumes the post of Disney’s president and controls Disney’s supreme power.

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

And Michael Eisner was transferred from the parent company—Vice President of Disney to the position of President of ABC, which was also Wu Guangyao’s suggestion;

Because Wu Guangyao knew that Michael Eisner had ambitions, but he was also very good at integrating resource utilization;

In his previous life, when Michael Eisner was the president of Disney, he frantically raised funds and diluted the shares of the founder;

Therefore, it is better to put this kind of ambitious and capable person on the ABC;

Because ABC just lacks this kind of talent, it catches up with the other two American TV stations.

"BOSS, please say!" Michael Eisner said humbly.

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

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

Wu Xianlei said: “First, ABC and Disney have established a stronger and more comprehensive TV network. You are responsible for this!”

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

And ABC launched its own communications satellite as early as 1976 and formed a television network;

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

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

Wu Xianlei continued: “Immediately after you took office, you worked **** the attention and speed of the news; it should be the same as CBS and NBC, or even better!”

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

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

At this time, the Wu family held 90% of Star Media's shares (not listed), Star Media held 30% of Disney's shares, and Disney held 70% of American Radio and Television, forming a heavy shareholding.

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

The   Family Office also holds 10% of Disney’s shares. Tiger Fund and Bridgewater Fund together hold 5% of Disney’s shares.

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 there is no need to be polite.

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

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

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

Wu Xianlei smiled and said: "Whether the effect is good or not depends on your planning! However, I am very optimistic about the ratings of this show!"

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

The boss took charge of Disney and did many things that business people praised:

Hikari’s investment in Japan’s Disneyland has made a fortune in property value. The most important thing is that the Japanese are very accepting of American culture;

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, he also won the MGM production company. It should be noted that the owner of MGM is a British Countess (Chris), who is notoriously good for money and enjoys the title of the American “Hotel King” and “Female Gambling King”. say!
