Blackstone Code

Lynch doesn't want to know whether Mr. Senator is very courageous and not interested in finance, and he doesn't care whether he knows or not.

It was impossible for him not to understand that Mr. Senator had been holding on to him for such a long time, and now he suddenly let go. It must have something to do with the increased orders.

The military won a victory and became the "world's number one naval power". Now the military's strength and power are expanding infinitely.

According to statistics, five years ago, the entire military's annual military budget was only a few hundred million, and Congress rejected more than 60% of the military's budget.

The reason was that he did not want to trigger an international confrontation and believed that the increased strength of the federal military would only unsettle international friends, so he rejected most of the budget requests.

This year, the Navy's budget alone has exceeded 1 billion after review and approval, which shows that the military's "power" in all aspects is expanding at a high speed.

If you block what the military is eager to get today, tomorrow the Military Intelligence Bureau will start searching for Mr. Senator's dirty materials.

Indeed, federal law does not allow investigations of any nature against serving officials. If anyone is familiar with this act, there must be only one "domain" in it.

This bill can restrict those law enforcement agencies, such as the FBI, the Federal Police, the Federal Security Council, the Federal Department of Homeland Security, the Federal Tax Service, etc.

This does not include the Military Intelligence Service and the internal investigation services of the Federal Army and the Federal Navy, which are not covered by this bill.

Under normal circumstances, the military will not take the initiative to investigate any official, because it is unnecessary and cannot be done.

But it’s not that they can’t do it. This is very important. They can do it but it’s not necessary. It’s not that they can’t do it.

Once the Military Intelligence Bureau believes that Mr. Senator has had an extremely serious impact on national security, they can directly investigate Mr. Senator.

In the end, they may find that this is a "false alarm", but during the investigation, they unexpectedly discovered some other problems, such as official crimes or abuse of power.

These two crimes may be a joke in some countries, such as Gaevra, but in the Federation, they are enough to make a senator lose his power.

In any case, Mr. Senator often interacts with the military. He must know this, otherwise he would not be so eager to sell it before the truth is revealed.

And this is why Lynch did not directly give him any substantial benefits, but only gave him a piece of gossip. This is what he wanted to express.

"If you want benefits, take a gamble!"

While Mr. Senator who returned home was thinking about all the gains and losses, the CEO was suffering and moving forward second by second.

To him, time was like a saw blade cutting his soul. Every second was a pull back and forth, and his soul was about to burst.

His assets were shrinking severely every moment, and what was even more frightening was that some shareholders told him that someone had contacted those shareholders privately and planned to acquire some of their shares from them.

At the same time, his personal advisor also told him that there have been some abnormal transactions in the stock market recently.

A large number of stocks were swallowed up by some scattered investors. Although these people wanted to think that this was a normal transaction, it itself violated the laws of finance.

In other words, someone is trying to acquire a certain number of stocks at one time by acquiring non-tradable shares and tradable shares, and then launch a takeover war every moment.

Acquisitions between capital and capital have never been a very common thing, and it is not as simple as what some people who don't know much about stocks say but think they know everything.

Acquisition is very complicated and involves many things, the most important of which is funds.

Suppose the market value of a listed company is one billion. If you want to forcefully acquire this company, you must prepare at least 1.3 billion in funds. This is at least.

General analysts will tell those who try to do this that they have to prepare 2 billion and face a certain possibility of failure.

The reason why such a premium is required is because in most listed companies there is something called a "repurchase clause".

This has been written in the contract since the shareholders first joined the company.

When a company faces a hostile takeover, the company's board of directors has the power to preferentially acquire shares from shareholders at a certain premium to the market price.

This price was negotiated by everyone before, and there is also a common rule, that is, it is at least no less than 30%.

When a company with a market value of one billion faces a vicious takeover, they will have to spend 130% of their tradable and non-tradable stocks to recover their equity. Therefore, if they want to force a takeover, they must have at least 1% of the market value. Only one hundred and thirty or more.

Many people see the annual profits every moment, and their eyes are red, but there is nothing they can do about it.

These Mariro people knew very well how the federal capital game was played, and they had solved the issue of the composition of the board of directors before the federal people could react.

There are people from the federal local investment agency, federal free investors, and bank investments. Then they divided the remaining shares into small shares and gave them to some puppets. It seemed like everyone had a few thousandths. to a few percent of the shares, and the maximum does not exceed 20%.

But in fact, about 40% to 50% is in the hands of the chairman at every moment, and he is controlling everything behind the scenes!

In the past, people wanted to get involved here, but there was no good way.

It is impossible for the small shareholders of the Federation to sell their shares. Such high-quality companies that can guarantee profitability every year are rare in the Federation.

Then we can only look at the stock market and sound the clarion call for a takeover war after acquiring 3% of the outstanding shares.

It's just that the market value of Everyday is too high. Once shareholders know that someone is going to start a hostile takeover, there is no need for the Chairman of Everyday to persuade investors to raise the stock price. Those investors themselves will take the initiative to raise the stock price.

Hundreds of millions of tradable shares may eventually cost more than twice as much money to obtain. Once you obtain it, you are not yet a major shareholder. After joining the board of directors, you will have to go through a round of share dilution and re-issue additional shares and re-list it.

In other words, it may have cost 7,800 million or even over 1 billion, and only acquired less than 20% of the shares. It looks like it is a major shareholder, but it is still being controlled by the Marillo people.

Although people are jealous, they can only be jealous.

But things are different now.

Lynch's press conference became the clarion call to launch a general attack. As stock prices plummeted, capital once again smelled the sweetness of blood, surrounding it every moment, pounced on and bitten a piece of flesh and blood from time to time.

Now you want investors to spontaneously raise the stock price?

Now they only hate that their stocks don't have two legs, they only hate that they are sold slowly and at a high price and others don't want them anymore. How can they have the energy to help launch a defense war every moment?

This problem was not discovered at the beginning because it was always a small amount of money from multiple accounts. According to the federal financial law, if an account acquires 3% of the total share capital, then all parties must be informed. Submit information.

Is this a normal investment behavior or an acquisition behavior?

If it is an acquisition, it is divided into normal acquisition and hostile acquisition.

The former requires companies or individuals holding stock accounts to sit down and talk about the acquisition at all times, and finally issue an announcement to explain the situation.

If it is malicious, then the Financial Supervisory Commission will activate the hostile takeover regulations to monitor the operations of both parties to ensure that they will not harm the interests of ordinary shareholders.

Hostile takeovers are divided into multiple stages. Once launched, they cannot be stopped easily, otherwise they will be investigated for "crimes of disrupting the order of the financial market."

It is precisely because of this that most of the time there are not too obvious signals in the early stages of the war between capital and capital.

Before preparing for a physical fight, they would remain patient and fully prepared.

A rapid increase in turnover is a signal, and a large number of small bites are also a signal. If you want to discover these, someone must keep an eye on and analyze them all the time.

When those people have enough to eat, they will transfer the stocks scattered in different stock accounts into one account. If the amount exceeds 3% or even 5%, they will directly launch acquisitions.

Combined with the fact that the small shareholders within the company are now frequently contacted by some people, there is no doubt that someone intends to swallow every moment in one breath.

This is the weakest moment since its establishment!

Because the market value has shrunk significantly and bank credit has been downgraded, they can't even borrow money from the bank!

Of course, this is normal. Banks will never lend money to those who are in urgent need of money because they cannot afford the interest or principal.

They will only lend money to those who don't need the money, can afford the interest, and can afford to repay the principal.

This is obviously not the case every time we are in trouble now. Even the part of the company that belongs to the bank's investment will change from shares to debt again!

Banks have long been accustomed to converting loaned money into shares of fast-growing companies, and when necessary, turning shares into debt. No matter what, they will not lose money.

"Mr. President, today's turnover has begun to decline, and we don't have much time left."

The president looked very haggard and smelled of alcohol. "Why do you say that?"

The analyst pushed up his glasses on the bridge of his nose, "The decline in turnover means that the number of shares in circulation has begun to decrease. Some have already entered those people's accounts. Others may have discovered problems, and they have begun to choose to wait and see."

"Isn't this a good thing for us?" He used his head that was no longer able to move flexibly to give himself a judgment. This should be a good thing, at least those villains can't buy many stocks.

The analyst shook his head, "This means that it is almost time for our opponent to launch a general attack..."

"If you can't come up with a solution, we are likely to lose a lot of territory."

His words made the CEO sober. He looked at the analyst and asked, "Then what should I do?"
