Chapter 305

Henry sent people to Monsanto to launch a tender offer, did not think, the other side directly refused.

Henry thought about it. Monsanto has a history of 93 years since it was founded in 1901. It is powerful and ambitious. How can it be willing to become a vassal of other companies? Moreover, after the completion of the acquisition frenzy, Monsanto's strength has greatly increased, and the seed field has become powerful enough to challenge the world's first pioneer seed company!

It is not impossible to develop transgenic seeds with gene umbrella biotechnology. Henry murmured: "come on, since other people don't want to be acquired, we won't force it. Let's see who is more powerful!" Although gene umbrella company does not focus on plant genes, but technology is interlinked, are using biotechnology!

In biotechnology, gene umbrella is the second, no one dares to be the first!

Henry then let gene umbrella company set up gene umbrella seed company, specializing in genetically modified food!

In fact, Monsanto's acquisition frenzy has brought huge debt to it. Once GM food is frustrated, the blow to Monsanto will be fatal. Henry just knows that the European Union will ban the import of genetically modified food, and public opinion is also wantonly singing Down genetically modified food. The market of genetically modified food has been hit unprecedentedly. In addition, Monsanto is burdened with heavy debt pressure. Monsanto, a giant company with a history of nearly one hundred years, was acquired by a Swedish company. It's sad!

No matter how big the company is, it's only one step away from death!!!

Monsanto is a living example.

Henry can't help looking at his own company. There are so many companies in his name that he may suddenly go bankrupt like Monsanto one day. It seems that he has to hold a huge amount of liquid cash to last. Apple holds nearly $100 billion in liquid cash, even if it loses $1 billion a year, it can lose 100 years.

Henry thought that if he held a trillion dollars of liquid cash, even if he lost 10 billion dollars a year, he would lose 100 years!

In fact, since Monsanto will go bankrupt, Henry can wait until then to buy it. Of course, Henry has another choice, that is to buy pioneer grain!

In the middle and late 1990s, in the face of Monsanto's strong attack, pioneer grain began to realize that they could not resist Monsanto's attack. As a result, pioneer grain later found a backer - DuPont company! DuPont is a large chemical company in the world. Its business scope covers more than 20 industries including military industry, agriculture, chemical industry, petroleum, coal, construction, electronics, food, furniture, textile, refrigeration and transportation, with an annual income of more than 30 billion US dollars!

DuPont is only a subsidiary of DuPont consortium.

After being acquired by DuPont, pioneer grain seed company naturally did not fear Monsanto, and finally became the second largest seed company in the world after Monsanto.

Henry can take the lead to win the pioneer seed!

Therefore, Henry is the one who decides how to play this card. He can even buy pioneer seed first and then Monsanto!

"When these two companies can't hold on, it's time for me to take action!" There was a smile on Henry's lips.

At this time, Clinton made a phone call to Henry. In the phone call, Clinton told him that Lockheed was ready to merge with Martin Marietta company to form Lockheed Martin company. At present, it is waiting for the approval of the U.S. government!

"President Clinton, we, Williams aerospace, are going to join their merger plan as well!" Cried Henry anxiously.

If they merge, what else can they do!

It will be more difficult to acquire Lockheed Martin!

The former Lockheed Martin company, even if it is called the world's top three technology companies, it is no exaggeration!

It is one of the strongest Aerospace Manufacturers in the world and the largest fighter manufacturer in the world. It controls the production and launch business of all military satellites in the United States, and is engaged in the research of the most advanced robotics and nanotechnology. In addition, it also includes ultra acoustics, biometrics, continuous reconnaissance technology, information fusion, unmanned and automatic systems, etc.

Its skunk studio is one of the most technologically and innovatively advanced studios in the world. It is the real core asset of Lockheed Martin!

Clinton shook his head and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Williams, Lockheed and Martin Marietta are assets of the California consortium. I proposed to them that Williams Aerospace would like to acquire them, but they strongly disagree! In addition, there is a very bad thing to tell you. The US government will soon conduct an antitrust investigation on you! "

Henry's face sank. "What do they want to investigate about me?"

"Williams network!" Clinton said, "Williams network almost monopolizes the whole Internet, which you must be very clear, especially the recent high market value of Internet companies, which makes people greedy and scared at the same time! Although you paid a lot of government officials before, this time it's different. Many American consortia can't stand it any more! As you know, the influence of American consortia on the American government is very huge! "

Henry took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "well, thank you, President Clinton. I see!"

With that, Henry hung up.

Henry has been corrupting the U.S. government in various ways, trying to avoid anti-monopoly investigation. But now it seems that the market value of Internet companies is too high, which scares the major consortia. Although Henry didn't set up a consortium, he was more terrible than the consortium!

Now, they're going to work together on Henry.

They are responsible for this anti-monopoly investigation, and at the same time, they want to get a piece of it!

Among these consortia, needless to think, there must be Morgan consortia and Citigroup consortia. As for other consortia, Henry is not sure. However, the California consortium is about to set up Lockheed Martin, but it has to exclude itself. Besides being wary of itself, it also wants to suppress itself.

In Henry's eyes, a glimmer of light flashed. California is the headquarters of California consortia, and their influence in California and the west coast of the United States has always been unshakable. However, there is Henry!

California consortia control a number of financial banks and arms companies, but with the development of Williams bank and the establishment of Williams aerospace company, it has threatened the interests of the consortia. It's also possible for them to join the anti Williams League!

Of course, in addition to consortia, competitors such as AOL may also fall.

Henry tried to calm down, carefully analyze and think about the way to deal with it.

Monopoly is a fact, which is indisputable. No matter how you defend yourself, it is useless. Henry frowned, feeling that things were very difficult. If the US government intervenes, it may ask itself to split up and sell the company

Henry thought for a night, and early the next morning he informed the CEOs and major shareholders of Internet companies to attend a meeting at Nicholas group.

After everyone came together, Henry said that the US government would conduct an antitrust investigation on Williams network!

As soon as Henry finished, all the people present were shocked.

Then, there was a lot of discussion.

Henry sat quietly listening to their discussion. At this moment, he had made a decision in his heart!
