"Mr. Jacob, are you sure you are replacing the equity of Rothschild Investment Bank?"
Steve Calvin looked very serious, his eyes fixed on Jacob Rosier.
Jacob Rothier nodded calmly: "I'm pretty sure what I'm talking about."
After listening to this, Steve Calvin felt very complicated, took a sip of coffee to calm down, and said inexplicably: "I didn't expect that you would be willing to take out the equity of this company. If the news is exposed, I believe It will be unbelievable for a lot of people.”
"Maybe, it will make many people have ideas that they shouldn't have."
Jacob Rothier heard the meaning of Steve Calvin's words.
He smiled and explained calmly: "Mr. Steve, if someone really thinks that our Rothier family has been seriously damaged, he will regret it."
Steve Calvin didn't speak any more, leaning back on the sofa and pondering fiercely.
Their Calvin family holds a 21.47% stake in Cerberus Capital, and the Calvin family does not have much assets other than this asset, so they cannot support their increased stake.
And in this case, I believe that no bank would dare to provide him with a large mortgage loan.
Ask yourself, he can't resist Morgan Stanley's attack.
He has no confidence to hold on!
If Cerberus Capital is controlled by Morgan Stanley, he will end up as Jacob Rothschild says.
And the roots of the Calvin family are in Europe after all...
After thinking for a long time.
Steve Calvin had already made a decision in his mind, he sat up straight again and looked at Jacob Rosier.
The latter showed a smile when he saw this, and took the initiative to ask:
"Mr. Steve, how are you thinking?"
"In principle, I do not agree, but the price must be appropriate." Steve Calvin said solemnly.
Jacob Rothier nodded and promised without hesitation: "Of course, none of us can suffer."
"You can even get more!"
There is no free lunch in the world!
Steve Calvin immediately asked: "Then what do I need to pay?"
"Convince as many shareholders as possible to agree to our merger," said Jacob Rothier. "The lower the price, the higher the commission you get, and the commission can be exchanged for equity."
"As for the value of your equity, it will be calculated separately."
Of course, Steve Calvin will not refuse this kind of self-serving thing.
What's more, he couldn't afford it.
"Of course, no problem."
"So, let's talk about the valuation of the two companies first..."
…
"Good guy, John Chris Morgan is probably full of anger right now!"
Xiangjiang, Xia Yu looked at the news from London and couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
It's just that Xia Yu admired the efficiency of the Rothschild family.
From the public opinion, it can be seen that in the face of the sudden attack of Rothschild Investment Bank, Cerberus Capital Company seems to be very cooperative, and it has a very intentional appearance.
And Cerberus Capital's response was swift.
The board of directors has initially passed the resolution to be acquired by Rothschild Investment Bank.
As a result, Morgan Stanley was caught off guard.
As far as this situation is concerned, Xia Yu is no longer optimistic about Morgan Stanley's plan to acquire Cerberus Capital.
In the case that both parties have reached an agreement at the top.
Unless John Chris Morgan is willing to pay a very high price, rush to buy the equity of some shareholders of Cerberus Capital, and then forcefully interrupt the process of the merger of Rothier Investment Bank and Cerberus Capital, and then in chaos Under the situation, slowly figure it out.
Only in this way, an acquisition war that should have been launched in a lightning manner turned into a quagmire war.
In today's European capital market situation, this is undoubtedly the last resort.
How to choose depends on whether John Chris Morgan can swallow this breath for the time being.
"Forget it, the grievances between Morgan and the Rothier family are over, let them go."
"I'd better take care of myself first."
"Intelligence shows that the local capital in Europe has already begun to resist, and the pace of action must be accelerated."
Glancing over the intelligence, Xia Yu's expression became slightly solemn when he saw the actions of the German consortium, the Agnelli family and other forces.
According to his original strategy, if he wanted to expand his influence in Europe, he would have to deal with the original old-fashioned forces.
But now many forces have obviously run to the same line with the Rohir family, which means that others have already made a choice for him.
That being the case, it also saves him wasting time and energy.
Just do it directly, and kill anyone who dares to stop it!
Xia Yu picked up the phone and dialed George Berkeley.
Soon, the phone was connected.
"Hey, George... All acquisitions are speeding up, especially for the Schroders Group's acquisition, it must not fail..."
After telling George Berkeley, Xia Yu hung up the phone.
He picked up the teacup and was about to drink tea when a knock on the door suddenly sounded.
"Please come in!"
After the door opened, Wang Qi's figure was revealed.
"Chairman, the results of fundraising have come out!"
As soon as he came over, Wang Qi went straight to the topic.
Xia Yu showed a smile and asked curiously, "How many tens of billions of funds have been raised?"
Wang Qi said and handed the fundraising statistics to Xia Yu: "Chairman, the 7 newly established funds have all set their fundraising quotas, a total of 60 billion Hong Kong dollars!"
"For our fundraising this time, the enthusiasm of investors is very high, and it has also attracted some national-level social security institutions and sovereign funds to come. If we hadn't set a quota limit, this time I am confident that the fundraising will exceed 1,000. billion Hong Kong dollars!"
Xia Yu scolded with a smile: "You need to eat one bite at a time. Although Kirin Capital Company had a good record last year, there is still a shortage of mid-to-high-end elites. It is not a good thing to eat too much."
"You're right!" Wang Qi said, licking his face.
Xia Yu ignored him and read the fundraising report.
This time, Kirin Capital has newly established seven funds, namely Kirin Bond No. 3, Kirin Bond No. 4, Kirin Hang Seng Index No. 3, Kirin Hang Seng Index No. 4, Kirin Tianyi Hybrid No. 3, Kylin Tianyi Hybrid No. 4 and Kirin Global Select No. 1!
The first six funds are backed by old brands, and they are highly sought after by investors when the original six old funds were not open for fundraising.
However, taking into account the current size of the Xiangjiang stock market and some follow-up plans, Xia Yu did not allow the opening of fundraising, but gave a limited amount, and stopped fundraising when it was full.
Unlike last year's first fundraising, the fundraising was accepted without restrictions before the deadline.
This time, six funds other than Kirin Global Select No. 1 raised a total of 45 billion Hong Kong dollars!
The Kirin Global Select Fund No. 1 raised HK$15 billion, targeting capital markets other than Hong Kong.
For Kirin Capital, this Kirin Select Fund No. 1 is the most important business target this year.
After reading the fundraising report, Xia Yu put it on the table.
"Wang Qi, the first step of Kylin Capital has been very good. The second step is to prove to investors that Kylin Capital can not only do a good job in the Hong Kong market, but can still create brilliant achievements in global investment."
"If this step is done well, Kirin Capital will be able to develop by leaps and bounds next year."
Hearing Xia Yu's words, Wang Qi took a deep breath and nodded solemnly: "Chairman, I understand what you mean!"
Xia Yu nodded slightly: "Don't worry, UU reading has a good chance this year."
"You pick your investment goals as soon as possible, spend the money first, and then I will notify you when the time comes."
Wang Qi was taken aback for a moment. Although he was curious, he did not ask any further questions. He nodded: "Okay, I will speed up the construction of overseas branches to ensure that there are sufficient staff at that time."
"Um!"
"You go to work first."
"Okay! Chairman, I won't bother you anymore."
After all, Wang Qi left Xia Yu's office.
After Xia Yu drank a cup of tea, he cleaned up the documents on the desktop, among which the fundraising report was thrown directly into the shredder.
As for the information about Europe, he looked at it again, and his eyes stayed on the Francisco family in Spain and the Wallenberg family in Sweden for a while, and then threw the information into the shredder.
