Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

At this moment, Xia Yu glanced at it, and suddenly remembered that Huo Jianning's acquisition plan was still on the table.

He was so involved in thinking just now that he ignored this.

I don't know how Huo Jianning planned to face such a difficult situation?

Thinking of this, Xia Yu picked up the acquisition plan and looked at it.

Acquisition Plan There are four kinds of acquisition plans written above.

The first option is to take the next step and directly acquire the equity of its largest subsidiary Swire Pacific Limited from Heung Kong Swire Pacific Group. As long as the negotiation can be concluded, and then the equity of other shareholders can be acquired, then not only will the entire Swire Airlines be acquired, but also the Two promising companies, Swire Properties and Swire Beverages, also bought.

However, the success rate of this method is extremely low, and the Shi Yahuai family is very likely not to accept the acquisition invitation at all, nor to give the opportunity to make a bid.

The second plan is to start from the source. The Swire Pacific Group, the parent company of the Heung Kong Swire Group, has already been listed in London, and the Shi Yahuai family does not absolutely control the British Swire Group. They can attack the British Swire Group in the London market.

This method requires a huge amount of money, and because it is in the United Kingdom, it involves British wealthy aristocrats, so it is very difficult to implement and the success rate is very low.

The acquired equity has not reached a certain amount, and it is impossible to replace the equity of Hong Kong Swire Group with the customs of the British Swire Group.

Because Heung Kong Swire Pacific Group is not listed, if it does not control two-thirds of its equity, it will not pass the board discussion, nor can it win Cathay Pacific.

The third plan is also relatively simple, that is, "Xiangzhuang dances the sword in Peigong", directly initiates an acquisition invitation to Swire Airlines, acquires the equity of Hong Kong Aircraft Engineering Company, a listed company, and then secures a percent of HSBC. After acquiring 8.4% of the equity, purchasing more than 3% from the secondary market will be able to control two-thirds of the chairman's voting rights.

At the same time, if they secretly acquire the shares of Cathay Pacific held by HSBC and the Song family, and then transfer 4% of the shares of Cathay Pacific held by Heung Kong Aircraft Engineering Company to their own hands, they will be able to control more than 50% of Cathay Pacific. one equity.

Even if it does not reach two-thirds of the ratio, but it exceeds 51%, it can still have a lot of power and occupy a certain degree of initiative, and then look for opportunities later.

The fourth plan is very similar to the third plan, except that it has a different angle, and because it does not involve listed companies, the target is also Chinese, and the success rate is higher.

This plan is to start with the unlisted Xiangjiang Airport Ground Service Company, find a way to buy more than 12% of the equity from Swire Airlines, and then acquire the equity of Cao Guangbiao and Huo Yingdong, plus the original % Fifteen percent of the equity, reaching two-thirds of the holding line, forcibly passed the transfer of the five percent stake held by Cathay Pacific Airways.

At the same time, it is also necessary to secure the shares of Cathay Pacific Airways held by HSBC and the Song family. Together with the original shares, they can also control 54% of the shares of Cathay Pacific Airways. We will find a way later.

For these four schemes, the success rate is increasing, although it does not increase much...

But in any case, in the face of such a strict ownership structure of the Swire Consortium, Huo Jianning also came up with these four action plans, regardless of whether they can be implemented or not, but it is indeed attentive and worthy of praise.

Xia Yu gave Huo Jianning an admiring look, and said with a smile, "Jianning, did you put a lot of effort into this plan?"

Huo Jianning smiled humbly, and said a little embarrassedly: "Chairman, I have lost a lot of strength, but I have to review it with you. The plans made here are very general, but for the time being we really can't think of anything else. Method.

"

Xia Yu smiled and shook his head and said, "I understand that. The Taikoo Consortium is too cautious, and it would be difficult for anyone to change it."

"After careful calculation, the source of this situation is still with me, which scared the Taikoo consortium. I remember that they were not so strict in equity control before."

In the past ten years or so, the Swire Consortium, like the Jardine Consortium, took advantage of the opportunity to acquire Chinese companies. The Jardine Consortium has merged more than 200. Although the Swire Consortium is less, it has also merged at least 150 or 60. Family.

The merger of the Swire consortium is absolutely impossible to use pure cash, nor can it take out all the cash.

Therefore, many companies use cash plus equity, or directly re-expand and merge.

In this way, the equity of each company under the Swire Consortium is not so concentrated, and many only hold 20 to 30 percent of the shares, even in listed companies.

The reason why the shareholding ratio is so high now is that British consortiums such as Hutchison Whampoa and Jardine Consortium are being hunted, so the Shi Yahuai family has to spend a lot of money to increase their shares.

But where did the money for the increased stake come from?

Xia Yu believed that the Shi Yahuai family could only get a small part, and most of the money must be borrowed.

Thinking of this, Xia Yu asked Huo Jianning: "Jianning, have you checked the debts of the Shi Yahuai family and the various companies of the Swire Group."

Huo Jianning shook his head truthfully and said: "Chairman, I have only collected information related to Cathay Pacific Airways in the past three days. I have not collected the information of the entire Swire Group, but I remember hearing that the Swire Group and the Shi Yahuai family have more debts. ."

Xia Yu nodded to show his understanding, but he thought about letting Liu Tianci and Gals Liddell do this. They are the presidents of Jiuding Bank and Standard Chartered Bank respectively. They will know more about this matter and collect information from other colleagues. Information is also more efficient.

Xia Yu put Cathay Pacific's information and acquisition plan aside, and asked Huo Jianning, "Jianning, it has been more than a month since the last time you arranged for you to acquire the equity of Pioneer Electronics Company in the island country, how is the situation now? ?"

Huo Jianning was stunned for a moment, and did not think about why the chairman stopped talking about Cathay Pacific. According to the actual situation, he reported: "Chairman, we have acquired a total of 9.75% of the equity, and all the shares are from The shares acquired in various stock markets are placed under the banners of multiple companies and have not been disclosed to the public.”

"Because the news was not exposed, the stock price of Pioneer Electronics in the island country is at a normal rate of increase. Yesterday, the market value of Pioneer Electronics in the island country was 182.1 billion yen."

Facing a multinational listed island country Pioneer Electronics Company, the progress has been very fast to achieve this level in one month.

Xia Yu smiled and emphasized after the comment: "The progress is good, you can grasp the situation yourself, speed is not the first, the key is the number of stock acquisitions."

Huo Jianning replied solemnly, "I understand!"

The performance this time involves whether the word "agent" can be removed from the head, and he can't help but pay attention.

"Do you have anything else to do?"

"temporarily unavailable."

"That's fine, you go to work first!"

"Okay, then Chairman, I'll retire first."

Xia Yu smiled and watched Huo Jianning exit the office and gently lead the door.

He picked up the information and acquisition plan of Cathay Pacific that he had at hand, walked down from the desk to the leather sofa, sat down in a comfortable sitting position, opened the information again and read it, stopping from time to time to think.

Now there are only two large British-owned consortiums in Heung Kong, namely Swire Consortium and Wheelock.

As far as Xia Yu knew, Wheelock was currently in fierce internal struggle, and the relationship between the Ma Stool family and the Zhang family was tense. If it weren't for the good development of the real estate business, Wheelock would have been dragged into the quagmire by the loss-making shipping business.

As a benchmark for British-funded enterprises other than HSBC and Standard Chartered Bank, the Swire consortium has more influence than the four major British-funded consortia at that time.

And whether it is the British government or the Hong Kong government, they are not necessarily willing to see the Taikoo Group fall like the Jardine Consortium and Hutchison Huang Po.

So even if Xia Yu has the confidence to handle the pressure from the British government, he does not want to fight the Swire consortium in all aspects for the time being.

Unless it's a last resort.

He is going to collect the debts of the Shi Yahuai family and the Swire Group, and more is to do more first-hand preparations.

The best-case scenario would undoubtedly be to keep the acquisition war under Swire Airlines.

Of course, if things really get serious then, he won't be afraid, just fight!

After a long time, Xia Yu read all the information again.

On the notebook on the table, according to the level of difficulty he thought, he wrote three words successively with his pen—Swire Airlines, Song Family, HSBC Bank.

He frowned and thought for a while, then wrote again below.

Lao Huo and Cao Guangbiao.

After deliberating for a long time, he wrote the word "old bag" at the bottom.

"I can only try it first. Whether it can be done or not depends on whether the Shi Yahuai family is greedy or not, is it really so vigilant..."

"Hope it goes as smoothly as possible..."
