v3 Chapter 1348： Still take the initiative

"The most powerful hero of rebirth (!

The Sydney Consortium is one of Australia's three major economic hegemons. Although its strength is far worse than him, it has the home field advantage.

Therefore, to defeat the Sydney consortium in Australia, it takes a long time to deploy and the amount of funds required is not small.

Fortunately, Australia is a member of the Commonwealth. Many companies under the Bright Fund have branches in Australia, such as HSBC, Standard Chartered Bank, Bright Fund, Royal Bank of Scotland, Mirror Group and so on.

With the existence of these financial companies, it is convenient for funds to enter Australia in a low-key manner.

In response to the attack by the Sydney consortium, Xia Yu handed it over to the think tank below to make a plan, which was regarded as a kind of exercise.

On the side of Xiangjiang, Defeng Shipping Company will acquire this piece, and Xia Yu is ready to play with the Sydney consortium casually.

Just as a pastime.

Xia Yu immediately adjusted the plan, proceeding in both light and dark.

Obviously, Dingfeng Securities, a joint venture between Jiuding Securities and HSBC Securities, has come forward to participate in the competition for the equity of Wheelock Shipping.

Secretly, it acquired the equity of five other listed companies of the Wheelock Consortium, United Dockyard Company, Real Estate Trust Company, Lane Crawford Retail Officer, Federal Real Estate Company and Xiangjiang Undersea Tunnel Company.

You don’t need too many targets for the acquisition. All you need to do is to secretly hold 33.4% of the shares.

The purpose is not to grab control of the company, but in other aspects, so the requirements are not high, and the action is not difficult.

At present, the largest number of Xiangjiang companies is Xia Yu’s Jiuding Consortium, which is decentralized. Each company acquires less than 5% of the corresponding equity, and it will be fine if it does not reach the placard line.

Soon, various companies took action.

Dingfeng Securities bought large-scale stocks in the stock market and contacted Zhang Yuliang's family, the majority shareholder.

Toll has hired Xiangjiang Luohill's parent company as its acquisition consultant. Their company's actions were also facilitated by the Luohill family, and they have long been staring at the stock market, shareholders and Xia Yu.

The actions of Dingfeng Securities Co., Ltd. were immediately informed.

Justin Kyle, the president of Toll's Asian branch and the vice president of the head office, immediately got together with Charles Rohill, the chairman of the Xiangjiang Rohill parent company, to discuss countermeasures.

"Mr. Charles, depending on the situation, our acquisition has encountered a big problem for me. How do we need to adjust our plan?"

Justin Kyle sat on the sofa, frowning, and said uneasyly.

The acquisition of Wheelock Shipping is the most important part of the parent company's international expansion and the most important task in his career. He does not want to fail.

Toll has been thinking about Wheelock Shipping last year, but it has not found a suitable opportunity. This time the Rohill family is willing to help, it is definitely the most likely to succeed, otherwise the consortium will not go down. Determined to do it.

If this situation can still fail, the blow to his ability and reputation will be fatal.

Charles Rohill said to Justin Kyle: "Mr. Justin, don't worry, let me introduce the situation to you first."

Justin Kyle took a deep breath and said sternly: "Please speak."

Charles Lowhill said slowly: "You should not be clear about the background of Dingfeng Securities. There are two shareholders behind it, HSBC Securities and Jiuding Securities. The most terminal of these two companies is the British Bright Fund and Xiangjiang. Jiuding Consortium."

Hearing this, Justin Kyle's face instantly became gloomy, and he felt that a mountain suddenly appeared on his back.

He may not know Dingfeng Securities Company, but he is no stranger to the two giants of Bright Fund and Jiuding Consortium.

Now that a company that the two Big Macs cooperated with has been killed out, it is difficult for Toll to withstand it.

The acquisition of Wheelock Shipping Company has suddenly cast a shadow.

As if seeing Justin Kyle’s nervousness, Charles Rohill smiled and said, “Mr. Justin, don’t worry, although Dingfeng Securities has emerged, we still have the initiative. ."

"We have taken the equity of the Madden family, and the Madden family's position in Wheelock Shipping."

"With a 21.1% equity advantage, it is not easy for Dingfeng Securities to catch up."

Justin Kyle felt relieved and hurriedly asked: "Mr. Rohill, then we only need to acquire the shares of Zhangjia, the largest shareholder, according to the previous plan?"

Charles Rohill nodded and combed his thoughts: "Yes, as long as you take the equity of Zhangjia, Toll will own 55.7% of the equity."

"The third largest shareholder and the fourth largest shareholder are United Dockyard Company and Real Estate Trust Company, holding 7.2% and 6.4%, respectively."

"Both companies are controlled by Wheelock Shipping, which holds 27.8% of United Dockyard Company and 38.2% of Real Estate Trust Company."

"As long as the control rights of United Dockyard Company and Real Estate Trust Company are not taken away, Toll will control 69.3% of Wheelock Shipping Company. No one can take it away!"

"Look, it's the same as I just said, don't be nervous."

"This is also the reason why I must help you win the equity of the Madden family in the first place. Although they are the second largest shareholder, they are responsible for the operation of the company. The prestige is not comparable to the Zhang Yuliang family."

"At present we have a lot of initiative!"

Justin Kyle accepted Charles Rohill’s explanation. He focused his eyebrows for a moment and said: "That is to say, now we only need to stabilize the advantage and act separately from three aspects."

"We must grab the equity of Zhang Yuliang's family, and then increase our holdings of United Dockyard Company and Real Estate Trust Company, and maintain control of these two companies."

"Can you even give up on the stock market?"

Charles Rohill smiled and nodded: "Yes!"

"As long as it can grab the equity held by Zhang Yuliang's family, Dingfeng Securities will naturally withdraw."

"If it fails and is not snatched, then if you control the United Dockyard Company and the Real Estate Trust Company, Toll's control of equity can reach 34.7%, and at least a veto is preserved."

"According to Wheelock Shipping’s "Articles of Association", more than two-thirds of the shareholders must vote for approval. Now John Madden has not retired from the position of chairman, so he can suspend his actions. He is ours. On this side, Toll has entrusted him to hold the voting rights on his behalf, and his prestige is also higher than that of Zhang Yuliang’s family."

"We are stuck here, and Dingfeng Securities will not be able to achieve the goal. In the end they have to sit down and negotiate.

"But my suggestion is that there is no need to go to this point and directly **** the equity held by the Zhang Yuliang family to avoid hidden dangers!"

"But based on the current situation, the cost of the acquisition needs to be more."

"The most important thing now is how determined your company is!"

"You can ask the above to see how it decides."

"I can give you an affirmative answer. No matter how much funds are needed, Barclays Bank will help. At the same time, we will persuade National Westminster Bank to continue to provide financial support."

Barclays Bank is a bank controlled by the Rohill family. Although the National Westminster Bank is not controlled, the Rohill family has a large proportion of shares and has a lot of influence, and it can also influence the management to make decisions.

After receiving this affirmative answer, Justin Kyle settled down.

The next step is to look at the ideas of the parent company and the consortium, and he is not responsible.

"Mr. Charles, I see."

"I will immediately ask the above now I have to trouble you to step in first."

Justin Kyle solemnly pleaded.

Charles Rohill smiled and replied: "No problem. Give me an answer as soon as possible. The longer the delay, the higher the acquisition cost will be."

"Ok."

"Mr. Charles, I'll go now, excuse me."

"You're welcome!"
