v2 Chapter 612： Acquisition

Of course, Xia Yu could not know the calculations of the Rohill family. At this time, he was fully participating in the construction of the Chinese business consortium.

After more than a month, as Xia Yu expected, British Chinese-funded enterprises rushed to join the Chinese business consortium, and the Wu family's threshold was smashed.

In this case, progress is very fast, and a core company of the consortium can be added almost every two or three days.

At this critical period, Wu Hongyi was too busy. It happened that Xia Yu had already acquired Rolls-Royce Motor Cars and had free time, so he couldn’t stand up to Wu Hongyi’s request. In addition, the Chinese business consortium also had its own share. So Xia Yu was involved.

With the addition of Xia Yu, the efficiency of the formation of the Chinese Business Consortium has been improved to a large level.

There are two flowers and one branch each.

After all, George Berkeley is an elite in the financial industry. What he is good at is financial investment. He is not good at the elite of automobile companies. So after taking over the Rolls-Royce Motor Company, he asked its general manager to reform according to the plan. He mainly focuses on supervision. .

However, he did not take time off. He did not forget that his boss Xia Yu told him that he wanted to acquire the shares of the Land Group as soon as possible.

It happened that when he was collecting information, he learned that Burton Keswick, the third line of the Hong Kong Keswick family, was in London and invited him.

Bolton Keswick is 42 years old this year. He is the cousin of John Keswick, the lord of the Keswick family. He previously served as a department manager in the Land Group. After the death of John Keswick and his son, he started Quickly, a lot of assets were divided up, and the biggest fortune was 10.5% of the shares of Land Group.

After changing his neutral position and retreating in his heart, the cautious Burton Keswick began to look for a retreat, and the best retreat was nothing but Britain.

This time when he came back, he learned that a family of fallen viscounts wanted to sell a piece of ancestral land in Maidstoneshire, south of London, including castles, forests, fields, etc., which he intended to buy as the foundation of his family in the future.

Reluctantly, the Viscount Lion opened his mouth, asking for a price of 40 million pounds, and must be in full cash, not accepting installments.

Forty million pounds, more than 350 million in Hong Kong dollars.

To be honest, he was indeed very greedy after seeing the ancestral land, but the point was that he could not give out 40 million pounds in cash.

But he really wants to buy this ancestral land too much, as long as he owns it, then his line will be able to gain a foothold in Britain.

Although the Keswick family has been in Xiangjiang for hundreds of years, he is very clear that the symbolic significance of the land and castle to a family, especially the inherited family business of the original aristocracy, is of extraordinary significance, which will help him quickly integrate into the UK Upper class.

Nowadays, it is rare that a prodigal viscount wants to sell, and he is not willing to slip away.

So after he stabilized the viscount, he made up his mind to return to Xiangjiang to sell his assets and raise money back to the UK to buy a family property.

I never thought that as soon as I was about to leave, I inexplicably received an invitation letter from the Bright Fund. The general manager of the Bright Fund, George Berkeley, invited him to see him.

In the country house he purchased, Burton Keswick frowned as he looked at the invitation letter in his hand, and couldn't figure out why the Bright Fund contacted him even if he wanted to break his head.

However, he did not think about it, but through his friends, he inquired about the details of the Bright Fund.

He was shocked by this inquiries, and instantly paid attention to it.

Although the strength of the Bright Fund is unknown, it is currently showing very strong. It not only holds the two large newspapers of the Financial Times and the Daily Telegraph, but also has close ties with the Duke Howard family, with a combined cash of 120 million pounds. Acquired the Rolls-Royce Motor Company, and also heard of close relations with the Conservative Party.

This all shows the mystery and power of the Bright Fund.

Although it is rumored that there is capital from Xiangjiang behind the Bright Fund, but based on his network, it is impossible to determine whether the news is true or false.

But it doesn't matter. Just having the ability to cooperate with the Duke Howard family and still occupy the initiative, reveals a lot of things.

He has already planned to return to China for development. Naturally, he does not want to offend the Guangming Fund, whose strength and background are unknown. He has a deep understanding of the troubles of the financial tycoons. He still remembers exactly how the Jardine consortium fell apart.

So even though he didn't understand, he decided to go to the appointment.

At the Sheraton Park Tower Hotel in London, Burton Keswick was led by a waiter to the door of a luxurious private room. He knocked on the door and saw a handsome middle-aged man. There was no one else.

"Mr. Bolton, this is George Berkeley, you are welcome, please sit down!"

"Hello Mr. George, I am deeply sorry that you have waited so long!"

"No, you are not late!"

After greeted George Berkeley with a slight distance, Burton Keswick sat directly opposite him.

During the awkward chatting time between the two, they finished ordering and serving meals.

Feeling that Burton Keswick put down his vigilance a little bit, George Berkeley knew that the time had come, so he gently put down the knife and fork, gently dipped his mouth with a paper towel, Burton Keswick's eyes flashed and did the same Actions.

"Mr. Bolton, I think you must be curious now."

"Yes, I was very surprised when I received your company's invitation. I think we should have nothing to do with each other before. Can you help me out?"

"of course."

"But before that, let me introduce our company to you."

"It's my pleasure, please!"

Bolton Keswick moved his heart, leaning forward slightly, looking at George Berkeley with scorching eyes.

George Berkeley smiled slightly and said: "The Bright Fund has not been established for a long time, but it has strong capital. Our business is mainly twofold. One is the acquisition of companies for management and transformation to enable them to increase value; the other is corporate mergers and acquisitions and consulting. "

"The investors behind the Bright Fund are large consortia and families. For special reasons, I won't introduce them in detail."

Hearing this, Bolton Keswick nodded slightly to express his understanding. After all, he was born in a large family. Naturally, he knew that in order to hide wealth, large consortia and large families would set up investment companies to diversify their equity.

Now his mind has passed the names of the top British families, the Bahrain family, the Campbell family, the Howard family, the Grosvenor family, the Cavendish family, the Stewart family...

As Burton Keswick conceived himself, George Berkeley continued.

"You are invited this time because we have received a business to acquire the equity of a company in your hands for our customers."

Hearing this, Burton Keswick was awakened in an instant. He sat upright, his eyes became extremely sharp, and he asked in a deep voice, "Mr. George, can I know who has entrusted your company? He wants to Which company to buy the equity in my hands?"

George Berkeley showed an apologetic expression and said: "It is our obligation to keep the customer's information confidential, and I am sorry for that."

"What we want to acquire is your equity in Land Group."

After speaking, George Berkeley looked at Bolton Keswick with a calm smile.

"The Land Group?"

Bolton Keswick frowned. He didn't expect that what he was after was the most valuable asset in his hands.

However, this is exactly what he wants. In order to raise money, he has already planned to sell the shares of Land Group. Now Guangming Fund has come to the door, which is exactly what he wants. As long as the price is right, who is not selling it?

As for the impact on other members of the family, this is beyond his consideration.

After the deaths of John Keswick and his son, the wealth of wealth fell on them and they were struggling, it was doomed to have contradictions and disputes within them. Although they seem to be united by outsiders, it is just It seems that it is mainly for self-preservation.

Now that he plans to fly separately, he can't manage so much.

It is impossible for him to suffer a loss for the benefit of the rest of the family. In case that time delays, the foundation of the viscount is bought by others, where can he find such a good opportunity?

It’s too easy to get wealth from heaven, so I don’t take it too seriously in my heart, and it doesn’t hurt to sell it.

Bolton Keswick pondered for a moment, and refused to say: "Mr. George, I do have a 10.5% stake in Land Group, but this is a family property, and I cannot sell it I'm sorry."

Bolton Keswick is not stupid. Although he is willing to sell, he also knows to raise the price and strive for more benefits. If George Berkeley says, he will stubbornly agree. This is not to give George a knife. ·Did Berkeley cut him?

George Berkeley saw through such a clumsy price-raising technique at a glance. He smiled in his heart, but said calmly on his face: "Mr. Bolton, there are no non-sale items in the world. I heard that you are buying Viscount Butt in May. The idyllic forests, castles and idyllic forests of Durstone County are not for sale by the nobles, don’t you think they are sold now?"

Burton Keswick frowned, looked at George Berkeley sharply, and said angrily: "Are you investigating me?"

George Berkeley smiled and shook his head: "No, this is just a coincidence. I tell you this, just to tell you that we can serve you in terms of acquiring the ancestral property of Viscount Bout."

Bolton Keswick took a few deep breaths, calmed himself down, and stopped entangled in this. He knew that his tactics of raising the price had been broken, so he simply pointed out: "Mr. George, you are right, the world There are no non-sale items on the market. I can sell the shares in Land Group as long as the price offered by your company is appropriate."

After finishing speaking, Burton Keswick picked up the knife and fork to cut up the steak.

"Mr. Porter, we have learned that the market value of the Land Group is now 5.89 billion Hong Kong dollars. Based on the market value, your 10.5% equity is worth 618 million Hong Kong dollars."

"Based on our current market value, we can buy all your equity at a premium of 10% at a price of 680 million Hong Kong dollars."

George Berkeley quietly threw out his offer.
