Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Chapter 1,499: The enemy is poor in skills and resorts to dirty tricks!

The information disclosed by Royal Bank of Scotland was like thunder on the ground.

The first person to jump in was Myron Barrett, the current chairman and president of NatWest Bank.

at this time.

The senior executives of NatWest Bank who learned the news had different thoughts. Some people subconsciously stepped lightly when passing by the chairman's office and glanced at the closed door of the chairman's office.

Inside the office, the atmosphere was very tense.

Myron Barrett and his angry son Ron Barrett are having urgent discussions.

With the support of Myron Barrett, Ron Barrett had already entered the job of NatWest Bank. Today, he is already a director of the bank and concurrently serves as the vice president and direct management of the credit department.

"Father, Royal Bank of Scotland's shareholding ratio is so high, it is very close to 50%. With the strength of Royal Bank of Scotland and the Bright Fund behind it, it will be difficult for us to stop it."

"Are we going to lose NatWest?"

Ron Barrett asked anxiously, looking at his father who was pacing back and forth.

Seeing his father's delay in answering, he continued to ask: "Father, it's been almost twenty days, and the support promised by the Rothschild family has not yet arrived. Do they no longer have the ability to support us?"

Hear the word Rohirrim.

Myron Barrett paused and looked at Ron Barrett suddenly, his tone full of indignation: "Don't mention the Rothschild family to me. If Jacob Rothschild will support us, They will not let Yinruida Group acquire the equity of our bank, but will lend us money to acquire it!"

"Jacob Lochier said it nicely. He was introducing powerful allies to me, but I was deceived by him!"

"Looking at the equity acquired by Yinruida Group, it is basically held by people who originally supported us."

"How much equity has been acquired by the Yinruida Group that is not related to the shareholders of the Rothschild family? Haven't they all been acquired by the Bright Fund?"

"You said Yinruida Group can be considered an ally?"

"In the future, maybe my current position will be that of Peter Wallenberg!"

Ron Barrett was stunned by his father's series of questions. It took him a while to come to his senses and asked in a dry tone: "Then what should we do?"

"As the current largest shareholder, Royal Bank of Scotland has such a high shareholding ratio that the extraordinary general meeting of shareholders can definitely be held."

"If Royal Bank of Scotland acquires some more equity or wins over some shareholders, the voting rights will easily exceed 50%, and re-election of the board of directors will be an unstoppable process."

Myron Barrett remained silent for a long time. He silently took out a cigarette and lit it. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and looked at the gray sky, lost in thought.

Until the entire cigarette is smoked.

He then turned to look at Ron Barrett and said slowly: "Our family's liquidity cannot be touched, and using it to acquire equity will not have any effect."

"Let's get ready to replace the vestibule."

"No matter what, let's try to keep the equity held by our family as much as possible."

"Of course, it would be best if the RBS takeover failed..."

Just as the Barretts were having urgent discussions.

When Peter Wallenberg, who was far away in Switzerland, heard the news, his whole head was buzzing.

It took half a minute to regain consciousness.

Immediately afterwards, he immediately picked up the encrypted phone and called Jacob Locher.

After a long time, the call was connected.

The slightly tired old voice of Jacob Lochier came from the microphone: "Peter, are you looking for me to talk about NatWest Bank?"

Peter Wallenberg immediately said into the microphone: "That's right, Jacob, so far, I have only acquired a total of NatWest Bank, a total of 1, and the Royal Bank of Scotland. The gap is too big!"

When speaking, Peter Wallenberg was so excited that the veins in his veteran hand holding the microphone swelled.

"In fact, this ratio is not low anymore..." Jacob Rocher's voice came from the microphone again.

As Jacob Rothschild said.

It has only been sixteen days since they gathered together on the night of January 23rd to discuss joining forces!

In sixteen days, NatWest Bank was acquired from scratch1

Speaking of this achievement, even giants like Goldman Sachs who are proficient in mergers and acquisitions will give them great admiration.

This is definitely made with money, and it costs a lot of money!

But who made the Wallenberg family lose the upper hand?

Before the Wallenberg family intervened, Bright Fund had secretly acquired 24.18% of NatWest Bank.

It’s just a one-time announcement this time!

"Jacob, even if this ratio is not low, it is still far behind the Royal Bank of Scotland!"

"Jacob, how much equity do you hold in Barclays?"

"3.72%!"

"..."

"Even if Myron Barrett and I join forces, the equity held by the three parties will only be 32.2%!"

After another exchange, although Peter Wallenberg's mood improved, he was still extremely heavy.

According to this ratio, it is not far from the self-insurance line, but the gap with Royal Bank of Scotland is still huge.

What's more, he has other worries in his mind.

Myron Barrett, the current chairman of NatWest and the original largest shareholder, may not necessarily turn to them.

Even Myron Barrett was and is an ally of the Rothschild family!

Peter Wallenberg put himself in his shoes.

If the Royal Bank of Scotland promised to himself that as long as he moved to the other party, he would not be able to move from his position as chairman, he might really agree to it.

After all, the knife is already at his neck, so any allies are useless!

If Myron Barrett switches sides.

That's when the Wallenberg family and the Rothschild family should think about how to resist the pressure and preserve their interests.

As if he could see Peter Wallenberg's urgency through the phone line, Jacob Rothier comforted him: "Peter, hold on tight first, don't give up easily, now find a way to acquire as much equity as possible, and we will also I’ll help you.”

"And I also have a less mature method, I'm not sure whether it will succeed..."

Peter Wallenberg, who was listening, was shocked, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and hurriedly asked: "Jacob, if you have any idea, tell me quickly!"

There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.

Just when Peter Wallenberg wanted to ask a second time, the voice finally came out again: "Putting pressure from the political level on the grounds that the Royal Bank of Scotland's merger with NatWest would undermine the long-standing stability of the British banking industry. The good competitive atmosphere will bring a devastating blow to the British banking industry, so that the government will stop the acquisition!"
