Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Chapter seven hundred and ninety-six Xia Yu's request

"Mr. Rothier, in fact, I have wanted to get in touch with your family for a long time, but I have never had the opportunity. I was deeply surprised when I received an invitation from your family the day before yesterday, but it happened to be very important in the city these few days. So I can only give the location without authorization, I'm really sorry."

As soon as he sat down, Xia Yu said apologetically, his attitude seemed very sincere.

Of course, this is just a scene, but in fact, he has not had an easy life these two days.

Jacob Rothier didn't care and said with a smile, "I can understand, I've heard of Mr. Xia's name a long time ago, my cousin Charles told me about you, and you've worked together a few times, He said you were very aggressive."

Xia Yu smiled: "Thanks to his high opinion, I have worked with Mr. Charles Rosier several times before, and the process was very pleasant."

Jacob Rothier nodded and said meaningfully: "That's good, in fact, as long as anyone who has worked with our Rothier family knows that we are very reliable partners."

"Haha! It's really reliable, can you be unreliable by directly tying people with a dog chain?"

Xia Yu sneered in his heart.

With an expression of deep conviction on his face, he nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Rosier, I also look forward to cooperating with you, of course, on the premise of a win-win situation."

Now, Xia Yu has begun to dig a hole.

Jacob Rothier heard what Xia Yu meant, he smiled and said directly: "Mr. Xia seems to have something in his words?"

Xia Yu looked surprised, shook his head and denied: "No, I have always been sincere when I treat my friends."

Jacob Rothier pondered for a moment, nodded and said softly, "Mr. Xia is right. Only by being sincere to each other can friendship last long."

"I think we should be able to be friends!"

Xia Yu smiled and said, "This is what I hope too."

"Mr. Rothier, what's the matter with you inviting me here today? I hope you don't embarrass your new friend!"

Jacob Rothier shook his head and said, "Of course not."

"Actually, the main purpose of inviting Mr. Xia here today is to get to know Mr. Xia. Now this purpose has been achieved."

"The secondary purpose is to cooperate with Mr. Xia. We want to acquire Mr. Xia's 5% stake in the Royal Bank of Scotland. As the basis for the cooperation, we will assist Mr. Xia to successfully acquire the Royal Bank of Scotland. And share some resources with Barclays to accelerate the rise of RBS."

"Only 5% of the equity is needed, which is actually not much. What does Mr. Xia think?"

Xia Yu leaned back, looked at Jacob Rosier for a few seconds, his smile gradually faded, and he asked lightly, "Mr. Rosier, before that, I want to ask a question."

Jacob Rosier nodded: "Of course!"

Xia Yu looked into his eyes and asked, "Listen to my subordinates, Barclays Bank has been acquiring the shares of Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland for the past 20 days. I wonder how much you have acquired?"

Jacob Rothier and Xia Yu looked at each other, pondered for a long time, and said slowly: "The current shareholding ratios are 15.4% and 36.1% respectively."

Xia Yu laughed suddenly, he shook his head and sighed: "Mr. Rosier, do you know? In order to harvest the fruit, I spent more than a year planting fruit trees, and I never leaked any news, just when the fruit was ripe and picked. During the process, Barclays Bank appeared, do you know how I feel?"

"If it were you, how would you feel?"

Xia Yu's sudden ridicule, Jacob Rothier could stand it, but the young man who came with him couldn't stand it.

As the leader of the Rosir family, Jacob Roshir is sought after everywhere, but now he is mocked by a young man younger than him, which is simply insulting the Rosir family!

"Mr. Xia, there are many banks that want to cooperate with Barclays Bank, and even want to be acquired by Barclays Bank, but we don't need it.

Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland are two listed public banks, are you only allowed to buy? "

For this annoyed young man, Xia Yu just glanced at him and then turned his eyes away, looking at Jacob Rothier with interest, as if he wanted to see his reaction.

I saw Jacob Rosier's face sank, and said solemnly: "Philip, it seems that I shouldn't bring you here."

The face of the young man named Philip changed. He wanted to argue a few words and opened his mouth. In the end, he didn't have the courage to speak. He lowered his head and sullen.

Jacob Rosier said apologetically: "Mr. Xia, I'm really sorry, Philip is my nephew, and his temper is a bit grumpy. Please forgive him for being rude."

Xia Yu smiled slightly and said indifferently, "It's okay, I can understand."

What is understandable?

As soon as these words came out, Philip Rosier was even more angry, but he didn't dare to vent, so he could only lower his head to hide his emotions.

Jacob Rothier's attitude changed, and it seemed that he was no longer friendly. He said lightly: "Mr. Xia, although Philip has a bad temper, he is right in one sentence. Since Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland are listed companies , then anyone has the right to buy, doesn't it?"

Xia Yu nodded, "Of course, that's true."

"So I don't plan to pursue what happened, just forget it, but why should I sell the equity to you again?"

Jacob Rothier shook his head slightly and said, "Mr. Xia, Royal Bank of Scotland owns part of the right to issue notes in sterling. You don't think you can really buy this bank, do you?"

"Even if you get away with it, you're going to have a lot of trouble."

"But if Barclays becomes a significant shareholder of RBS, we can all handle that."

"We just need to acquire another 5% of the shares and increase the shareholding ratio to more than 40%."

Xia Yunuoyu said: "Barclays Bank is very strong, but Lloyds Bank can also solve this trouble. Barclays Bank does not seem to be irreplaceable."

Just when the atmosphere was a little stiff, Xia Yu suddenly smiled again and said: "Of course it is not impossible to sell the equity to you, you said before that we are friends, if I buy the equity to you, then what can you give me? ?"

"Why don't you sell the stake in Standard Chartered Bank to us?"

How could Jacob Rothier agree to Xia Yu's request, he just wanted to hold part of the equity so that he could penetrate Xia Yu's assets and understand Xia Yu's details.

If the equity is sold to Xia Yu, then Standard Chartered Bank will become Xia Yu's private property. It is absolutely impossible for him to know the internal situation of Standard Chartered Bank. How can this be done?

Therefore, Jacob Rothier shook his head and refused: "I'm sorry Mr. Xia, we are also optimistic about the future of Standard Chartered Bank, so we will not sell this part of the equity."

Just when Xia Yu's face turned cold, Jacob Rothier suddenly said: "But our Rothier family can also help you in other places. Our Rothier Bank is very strong in mergers and acquisitions. I heard that you Abbott is being acquired, and we should be able to help with that."

Xia Yu's eyes turned cold, and he looked straight at Jacob Rosier.

Jacob Rothier looked at Xia Yu calmly.

After a long time, Xia Yu said slightly sarcastically, "It seems that the Rothschild family is well-informed? You know that I am buying Abbott, so do you know who is causing me difficulties?"

"We don't know this for the time being. If Mr. Xia wants to know, we can help you investigate." Jacob Rothier pretended not to hear Xia Yu's words and said with a smile.

Xia Yu couldn't help sneering in his heart, help with the investigation? Isn't it just a scapegoat?

Isn't Jacob Roshir saying this just to show him the muscles of the Roshir family?

He shook his head and refused: "This is not necessary. We have entrusted Merrill Lynch to help with the acquisition. If there is still trouble, we will ask Morgan Stanley for help. I have cooperated with them several times, and the result is very disappointing. satisfy."

"I heard that the Rothier family has a strong influence in the UK, but I haven't had a deep experience. I wonder if Mr. Rothier can let me see it?"

"Oh, by the way, this is also the basis of cooperation. If you can realize my wish, then the five percent stake in Royal Bank of Scotland, I will be happy to sell it to Barclays Bank."

Although Xia Yu's deliberate mention of Morgan Stanley made Jacob Rothier's heart unhappy, Xia Yu's request attracted his attention.

Maybe this is a good opportunity.

It's not that Xia Yu doesn't give in, it just depends on what he asks!

Don't be afraid of him asking, just be afraid that he won't ask for anything!

Jacob Rothier asked: "Mr. Xia, please tell me, in England, there are very few things that we can't do."

Xia Yu smiled and nodded and said, "Then I'm relieved, I actually want to acquire a company."

"Mr. Rothier should know that I am more interested in the media. This company is the Mirror Group Newspaper Company!"
