Chapter 1342 Huge Treasure

Although Xia Yu is far away in Xiangjiang, most of his thoughts are on building Xiangjiang and sorting out his own assets.

But it does not mean that he has relaxed his control over other companies outside of Hong Kong.

Even after the establishment of his Xia family office, he has enough talents to sort out and analyze information, but he has raised his control over those companies to a new height.

In the United States, before you know it, Ronald Reagan’s term is about to complete.

The general election is now underway, and the election time is less than two months away.

It’s just that Ronald Reagan has made great achievements in the past few years, leading the United States gradually out of the quagmire, and not losing ground in the contest with Hongsu, the material and spiritual level of the American people have been improved. .

So in this election, Ronald Reagan was extremely powerful, and Congress was firmly controlled by the Republican Party.

So in this general election, although there are still people from the Democratic Party running for the election, under the influence of Ronald Reagan, the voice is relatively small.

Although Ronald Reagan is highly likely to be re-elected, Xia Yu still gave full support to his close friends. His media empire in the United States has launched a campaign for Ronald Reagan.

At the same time, he also provided legal political contributions to Ronald Reagan through various channels.

In the island country, various companies have also developed very well, and the companies of the Sanhe Consortium have also become very close to his various banks.

The major families in the Sanhe Consortium did not notice anything wrong, but thought that these companies were moving closer to the Sanhe Consortium. They were happy to see this scene. After all, this represented the strength and influence of the Sanhe Consortium continued to grow.

It’s no wonder they couldn’t find out, because even the other five consortiums thought that these companies were forced to survive the pressure and turned to the Sanhe consortium.

On the European side, Britain and France have the strongest fulcrums. The Bright Fund uses huge funds to continuously expand its influence on the European continent.

Especially in the United Kingdom, the privatization process in the United Kingdom has gradually seen results, and the people have made money from stock trading, making the public's obstacles weaker and weaker.

Margaret’s privatization policy has been implemented more and more smoothly.

has now entered the second stage of the privatization process.

British Great Eastern Telecom, which had previously privatized 51% of its shares, this time, the British government took out the remaining 49% of its shares for privatization.

At this time, the strength of the Bright Fund has risen a step compared to a few years ago, and it is naturally eligible to eat a larger portion of fat.

49% equity, Bright Fund took 15%, then Royal Bank of Scotland 10%, Bank of Barings 10%, and other families and companies took 14%.

After two privatizations, Great Eastern Telecom Company became a completely private company.

The first largest shareholder is Bank of Bahrain with 30%, the second largest shareholder is Bright Fund with 22%, the third largest shareholder is Standard Chartered Bank with 12%, and the fourth largest shareholder is Royal Bank of Scotland with 10%. Another 26% of the shares are held by other companies and families.

But the 26% stake is irrelevant.

Bright Fund, Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland are all three companies controlled by Xia Yu behind the scenes. The total shareholding has reached 44%, far surpassing the largest shareholder of the Bank of Barings.

And the Bank of Bahrain?

Although the largest shareholder is the Locke Fund of the Howard family, holding 35% of the shares.

But Jiuding Bank is the second largest shareholder holding 25%.

Prince Philip’s Black Rose Fund and Bright Fund each hold 20% of the equity.

So in fact, the largest controller of Bahrain Bank is also Xia Yu, with a controlling stake of 45%.

The Howard family’s position is also consistent with Xia Yu, so Barings Bank is naturally his company, which is equivalent to a peripheral company of the Bright Consortium.

In this way, together with the 30% equity of Great Eastern Telecom held by the Bank of Bahrain, Xia Yu's influence on Great Eastern Telecom has reached 74%, and he controls it behind the scenes.

Of course, in the previous privatization of companies such as Amsham International, Britol Petroleum, British International Aviation Radio, United Ports, etc., the Bright Fund also gained a lot of money.

The privatized chemical giant Amsham International, Bright Fund took 21% of the shares, and HSBC Holdings took 8% of the shares.

Privatized 51% of Britol Petroleum Company, and Bright Fund took 8% of the shares.

British International Aviation Radio Corporation, which was all privatized, had a 7% stake in the Bright Fund, but the Rolls-Royce Motor Group took out a 12% stake.

There is also a 51% privatized United Port Corporation, formerly known as the British Wharf Bureau, and the Bright Fund is also the fiercest contender.

For Xia Yu’s global port strategy, the Bright Fund forced a 25% stake, and also allowed the Bank of Barings to take a 9% stake, directly owning a veto.

With the current advantages, until the next time the British government privatizes the remaining 49% of the equity, United Ports Corporation will also be included in the Bright Fund.

In addition to these companies that have temporarily ended their competition, the most important thing now is the two companies.

The largest British telecommunications company in the field of telecommunications has reached the most critical period of contention. This company with an overall value of at least £6 billion will be privatized by the British government at least half of its equity. The benefits involved are amazing.

According to the current situation, the dust is expected to settle in early November.

In addition, there is also a giant in the British natural gas industry-British Gas. This is a company that is more valuable than British Telecom, reaching nearly tens of billions of pounds.

It’s just that the specific privatization process of the British Gas Company has not yet started. It is just that there has been a rumor that there will be no results within a year, but now is the best time to enter the market.

If you step in at this time, you will naturally be eligible to eat a larger piece of cake when it is finally privatized.

George Berkeley is already a veteran in the fight for the privatization cake. Xia Yu only needs to clarify the general direction and bottom line. George Berkeley can make full use of resources and conditions to implement it, without Xia Yu worrying about it.

……

When Xia Yu was talking to Li Qian at home about the charity plan of Jiuding Charity Fund in 1985, someone came to report, and Ma Qianjun came.

"A Yu, why is my brother here?"

"It's been a long time since I saw him."

Li Qian also heard the report, a look of joy flashed across her face, and she stood up.

Xia Yu smiled, caressed Li Qian's hand and said: "He received an important task from me before and asked him to take the team to the tour personally. Now there should be a result."

While speaking, Ma Qianjun with a cold face walked in.

After seeing Li Qian also, his face finally showed a smile.

"Brother!"

"Cici, you are there too."

"Well, brother, sit down."

"……"

Xia Yu smiled and watched his brother and sister chat for a few words. He also knew that Ma Qianjun rarely met with his sister Li Qian in order to carry out his orders.

He is not a cold-blooded person Naturally, he will not interfere too much in this regard. Moreover, Ma Qianjun is also a very sensible person. Although he loves his sister, he also pays attention to proportion, especially in Xia Yu’s personal relationship. He had never asked Xia Yu because of his sister. The only request was that he wanted Xia Yu to treat Li Qian well.

"Uncle, is the investigation clear?"

After the brothers and sisters finished chatting, Xia Yu asked with a smile.

Ma Qianjun glanced at Xia Yu in a strange way, and then said inexplicably: "It has been found that there is indeed a temple called Padmanabhaswamy Temple built in the 16th century in Kerala, southern India. ."

"There are indeed six secret rooms there. The temple management knows only four. I found the other two secret rooms. I was the only one who secretly entered through the secret passage."

"There are too many gold and jewelry inside..."
