Chapter 686 Nothing can be changed temporarily

In the afternoon, drizzle began to fall in the sky in London again. A small breeze blew through, and the air-conditioning was bone-chilling. Westbrook's mood at this time was even colder than the cold wind. (As of the closing time of the London stock market)

, thanks to Westbrook's repeated efforts, Rio Tinto Group's share price fell by 33.4%, becoming the most eye-catching company with a falling share price in the stock market. It is a pity that such attention has

, Westbrook wants none of it.

Although Rio Tinto Group's stock price in London has fallen less than the Australian stock market, because Rio Tinto Group's market value is higher in the British stock market, in general, it is the eldest, let alone the second, who has fallen hard enough.

, at the end of one day, almost one-third of Rio Tinto Group's market value disappeared, making Westbrook almost cry in the toilet. Such a plunge, let alone Westbrook, just wished that Rio Tinto Group

Others whose company had suffered a huge decline were also shocked by the results.

The British media reported the news almost immediately on the Internet, radio, and TV stations. Presumably, the plummeting share price of Rio Tinto Group occupied a large space in those evening newspapers.

With these media reports, Rio Tinto Group's plight will be known to more people. Westbrook wonders whether this will have a chain reaction and further affect the Australian stock market in a few hours. Westbrook

For the first time, Brooke hated why the company was listed in Australia and the UK at the same time. As a result, he would suffer a psychological blow almost every half a day.

His original mobile phone was almost full of calls. There were calls from company directors, important shareholders, acquaintances, media people he knew, family members, subordinates... It was as if the last call had just been hung up, and the next call was on the phone.

The call came in. As a last resort, he changed his number to ensure smooth communication with the outside world, such as chairman **Vicci. **Vicci's voice on the phone also sounded a little tired, which was not

It makes Westbrook feel strange that sitting in Australia, he will not be in a better situation than himself at this time. He must have experienced rounds of information bombardment in the past few hours.

"Kenan, no matter what, we have withstood the first and possibly the biggest round of decline. In the next few days, the company's stock price should not experience such a sharp drop again in the stock markets of the two countries.

"Klopos, this bastard, deliberately makes it difficult for us." **Vicci said helplessly, covering his forehead. As the chairman of the Rio Tinto Group, his life was not easy this day, Weiss

Brooke didn't sleep much, and he wasn't much better. The Australian stock market hadn't wiped his butt clean, and he had to deal with the London stock market. Now he was exhausted and overwhelmed.

"By the way, is there any news from Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd.?" ** Vicky asked. Up to now, Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. is their biggest reliance on this precarious ship. As long as the two parties announce that they will

Cooperation, as long as it is announced that Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. may spend tens of billions of dollars to invest in Rio Tinto Group, then even the worst situation will quickly stabilize and return to a safe track! ** Vicky

We have this confidence because China is the world’s largest importer of iron ore!

"Not yet. The man named Qiu claimed that he had to report to the company before he could make a decision. However, he did not refuse my request to meet in the evening." Westbrook replied, "I will urge him as much as possible. Director

I would also like to think of a way to get through the government and China's heavyweight officials to ask China Aluminum Co., Ltd. to agree to our request as soon as possible. I think only good news like this can make us

The stock price has completely stabilized. Otherwise, once any negative news comes out, things will become even more difficult."

"Well, I will arrange it here as soon as possible. You can negotiate with the managers of Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd., even if you make some small concessions, it doesn't matter. Chinese people, especially Chinese officials, are all about saving face.

Love has been promoted over others. As long as they can get political achievements, everything else is easy to talk about. You have to pay attention to this..." **Vicci suddenly laughed and said, "I think there is no need for me to say anything about this kind of thing. You

I know it in my heart." Westbrook sighed secretly. He could understand it. In one day, almost one-third of the market value fell. With such a violent impact, **Vicci could still laugh.

His nerves were already highly tenacious, and such a small gaffe was nothing at all. Even he himself had been living a chaotic day.

The meal time that Qiujie agreed with him was 7:30 in the evening. What made Westbrook speechless was that Qiujie chose the flagship store of Fang's Restaurant in London, which is where he hosted a banquet for Fang Mingyuan and his party last night. Well,

They are not in the same box, otherwise Westbrook really needs to complain about it.

"You said Qiu Jie, the negotiator of Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd., had dinner with Westbrook at Fang's Restaurant tonight?" Angelina looked at her father with some surprise. Philip nodded, although Britain did not

It is not the power of the Welf family, but it is not difficult to keep track of the movements of a few people. Moreover, Qiu Jie and Westbrook did not want to hide their whereabouts, so they did not spend much effort at all.

"Rio Tinto Group seems to have been really hurt this time." Fang Mingyuan rubbed his chin and said thoughtfully. At this time, Westbrook and Qiu Jie had dinner together, and their intentions were clear.

, just want to use the name of Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. to stabilize the hearts of investors and give Rio Tinto Group Company time to regroup. As for the conditions set by Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. to the board of directors of Rio Tinto Group Company,

Fang Mingyuan felt that it was simply telling the world that he was a company with stupid people and a lot of money, and what he paid was completely out of proportion to the benefits! Although it was said that he could gain profits from the operations of Rio Tinto Group, he would not have enough words if he did not join the board of directors.

If you have no power, no opportunity to influence the direction of the company's operations, and cannot fully protect domestic interests, why invest so much money?

Philip glanced at Fang Mingyuan calmly. This time Rio Tinto Group was not only hurt, it was painful to the bone. In one day, it lost one-third of the company's total market value. For a company like Rio Tinto

Such a multinational established giant is extremely rare in its long history.

However, Philip was concerned that despite the heavy losses of Rio Tinto Group, Fan Mingyuan still stood still and had no intention of using funds to enter the market to acquire shares. Originally, Philip thought that Fan Mingyuan might have other funds to enter the market, but after analyzing the Australian stock market and London

Analyzing the buying and selling of Rio Tinto Group's stocks in the stock market, he found that the funds in Fang Mingyuan's hands may really have not made any moves! Among the two major stock markets, Rio Tinto Group's stocks were sold more and bought less, while the acquisition of Rio Tinto

The group company with the largest number of shares is protected by Rio Tinto Group's own funds.

This shows that investors were also caught off guard by the sudden change in Rio Tinto Group's stock price. People did not know whether the sudden increase in Rio Tinto Group's stock price was a temporary change or a long-term change, so they did not dare to enter the market rashly.

He continues to wait and see. As for this person, it is probably because the stock price of Rio Tinto Group has not reached his psychological price, which shows that the decline in the stock price of Rio Tinto Group is just the beginning.

"Then we will allow them to contact each other freely?" Angelina said with some confusion. For Fang Mingyuan's plan to acquire shares of Rio Tinto Group, it is undoubtedly not good for Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. to get involved.

.

"Let them get in touch. Hehe, Angelina, don't you know the virtues of those officials in the country?" Fang Mingyuan sneered, "Even if this matter is handled specially in the country, it cannot be done in a short time."

Time to reverse this 'tradition', and..." Domestic investors are accustomed to buying up and not down. Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. has suffered heavy losses since its last investment. If the public opinion had not been suppressed by someone, it would have been exposed long ago.

It's out. This time, if they show up again after buying the shares of Rio Tinto Group Company, and then it falls by 30 to 40% in the blink of an eye, the heads of China Aluminum Co., Ltd. will probably face the domestic crisis.

The public opinion has been overwhelmingly criticized. By then, I am afraid that even the big guys behind them will not be able to protect them. **Vitch and Westbrook, they think of this matter a bit too simply!

This is why it is common in the world that the efficiency of state-owned enterprises is often not as good as that of private enterprises. On the one hand, when acquiring other enterprises, they are generous and generous, for the sake of political performance, without considering whether the acquisition object meets their own requirements.

They even dare to make an acquisition decision without even grasping the true situation of the acquired party. On the other hand, when the acquisition should be made, they will look forward and backward and hold meetings and discussions at various levels, thereby missing the opportunity for acquisition. Of course, these

Problems will always occur in private enterprises, but! But private enterprises are responsible for their own money, while state-owned enterprises are responsible for other people's money. This is why the leaders of state-owned enterprises often change their tricks to benefit themselves.

**Vicci and his team's efforts are, at best, turning the news that China Aluminum Co., Ltd. intends to take a stake in Rio Tinto Group from private rumors into solid news. Although this will definitely have an impact on the stability of Rio Tinto Group's stock price

It will bring a certain effect, but it is absolutely impossible to say how significant this effect is, and how it can even reverse the decline of Rio Tinto Group's stock price!

The reason why Rio Tinto Group's stock price plummeted can be said to be due to various factors. BHP Billiton Group Company conveniently stabbed it after giving up, which was just a trigger for the plummeting stock price. The real reason is

The continuous rise in iron ore prices for many years has made it difficult for global steel companies to make profits. It can be said that the future profits of these mining companies have been overdrawn. As the saying goes, if there is no skin, there will be no hair, and no steel company will make a profit.

No matter how much iron ore these mining companies mine, who will they sell it to?

Moreover, now that the financial crisis has erupted and the economic crisis has emerged, it is difficult for those steel companies to maintain basic profit margins. Naturally, it is impossible to consume large amounts of ore, and the price of iron ore has begun to decline significantly.

This in itself has caused the market value of BHP Billiton Group Co., Ltd. and Rio Tinto Group Co., Ltd. to be almost halved. The merger of the two major companies is in itself a bummer to support the stock prices of the two major companies. Investors always think that once successful, the new company will

The company will become the world's largest mining company, and even Brazil's Vale can only surrender. As for Brazil's MM Company, Australia's Haiping Mining Company, and Katsk Metal Group, none of them are rivals of the new company.

These investors have fully experienced the wonderful profits brought by it over the years. Moreover, BHP Billiton Group has successively obtained acquisition approvals from the antitrust departments of the United States and Australia, which also makes these investors full of expectations for the establishment of new companies.

The higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment when the expectations are shattered! The huge disappointment will naturally make these investors face the current situation of the two major companies, which is far less financially sound than BHP Billiton Group Company, and the relationship with China

Even worse than BHP Billiton Group, Rio Tinto Group, which is burdened with heavy debts and has various potential problems, has naturally become a source of disappointment for investors. As a result, its stock price plummeted in the two cities!

And to reverse the investors' thinking, what can be done by a statement of equity participation negotiation with a conflicting outcome? The most that can be done is to prevent Rio Tinto Group's stock price from falling as much as it does today.

That's all. And this is on the premise that no other forces are trying to make trouble for Rio Tinto Group. But Rio Tinto Group has occupied the throne of the world's three largest mining giants for many years. Is it possible that there is no enmity? BHP Billiton Group Company stabbed Rio Tinto Group Company.

Will it turn over easily after this cut?

After understanding this, Fang Mingyuan naturally had a clearer understanding of the consequences of Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd.'s intervention and withdrawal. Not to mention that it was tricked by Rio Tinto Group in the previous life, in this life

, at least in the near future, Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd.'s attitude will not change the short-term downward trend of Rio Tinto Group's stock price, unless Huaxia Aluminum Co., Ltd. can hand over a huge purchase order to Rio Tinto Group!
