"In addition, we have started buying up Osborne shares at low prices because investors are not optimistic about Harry, and our acquisitions are going smoothly."
Smith had already considered two options.
By acquiring shares from minority shareholders and then purchasing another 6% of the shares, Hao Longtao could gain absolute control of the company.
Thus, he took control of the Osborne Group.
Another option is to directly acquire 21% of the shares from the secondary market.
However, there are still many uncertainties.
It is very likely that it will require a greater cost.
Therefore, Smith chose the first acquisition option.
"How much of a premium?"
"Thirty percent!"
"The information I gave you should come in handy now, right?"
Hao Longtao inquired.
"Sir, not yet."
Smith's smile widened.
This is definitely a powerful weapon.
"We can give them 90% of the current price, and also give them their information."
Hao Longtao waved his hand and said domineeringly.
..... ... 0
"The sooner the better."
Mr. Smith felt a pang of anxiety as he thought about watching the news as soon as possible; he knew exactly what had happened in Central Park last night.
The official explanation is that a cold tornado from the Atlantic Ocean fell from the sky, and the low temperatures turned one-third of Central Park into a frozen world.
Smith didn't believe it.
"I understand. Give me half an hour, and I'll handle it."
Smith went outside and gave some instructions to his assistant.
Hao Longtao, however, was scrolling through his phone.
A spectacular sight: one-third of Central Park is frozen over.
[A unique, frozen phenomenon, suspected to be the work of mutants.]
Central Park has become a popular summer retreat!
The news in New York may seem exciting, but it's being covered up by an invisible hand.
Half an hour later, Smith walked in.
"Sir, we have taken care of it. It seems we still need you to sign a few more documents."
Smith said happily.
This acquisition also brought Guofu Bank a huge profit.
Transaction fees and interest are both substantial amounts.
"Now that I already have 45 percent of Osborne's shares, I will make a high-profile move to acquire the 6 percent I need on the secondary market."
Hao Longtao immediately issued the order.
Smith, however, said:
“Yesterday we secretly bought in at low prices and have already acquired two percent of Osborne’s shares. If we weren’t worried about the news leaking out, we could have acquired even more.”
"Can it be completed today?"
Hao Longtao countered with a question.
"There's no problem at all."
"That's good. Let's sign all the agreements and contracts. I'll wait for Mr. Smith's good news."
Hao Longtao finally showed a slight smile.
"I will never let you down, sir."
Smith understood Hao Longtao's influence very well.
Harry also received the message.
"Wang Defa?? The company's shareholders have changed?"
"Who is acquiring shares in the Osborne Group?"
"Could it be that old fox, Connery?"
The shareholders' meeting is about to be held.
If Connery's shareholding exceeds his and he becomes the largest shareholder, he may not be a match for Connery in the competition for chairman.
"Guofu Bank?"
Harry Osborne received information that Wells Fargo had acquired all of Osborne's shares except for his own.
Now, Wells Fargo holds 45 percent of Osborne's shares.
Moreover, they officially announced the acquisition of Osborne Group shares from the secondary market.
The offer is for a total of 6% of the shares.
"Sir, Mr. Connery is calling a meeting."
His assistant rushed in in a panic.
"That old fox! I absolutely will not allow Osborn to fall into their hands. This is the company my father founded!!!"
Harry Osborn roared madly.
He smashed everything on the desk.
"Heh heh heh~~ Kill him, kill him, and Osborne is yours again!!!"
The Green Goblin in his heart kept surfacing, even mocking Harry, this good-for-nothing.
at the same time.
Smith received information that someone was entering the market and snapping up shares of the Osborne Group.
"That's interesting. Mr. Hao already owns 50.1% of the shares, and Osborne has already fallen into your hands. Are you trying to fish in troubled waters and make a huge profit by only starting to buy now?"
Smith looked disdainful.
"Mr. Connery has already begun taking over the Osborne Group, hasn't he?"
With Connery in power and his deep roots in the Osborn Group, Harry Osborn was no match for him.
Chapter Sixty-Seven: The Green Goblin Harry Attacks, Target: Immortality
“Connelly, Osborn is a family business, and I will absolutely not allow you to touch it.”
"Harry Osborn roared."
Connery looked at Harry Osborne as if he were a pitiful creature.
“Osborne is a publicly traded company, and your father has controlled it for too long. Now, the company has a new owner. Harry, your position as president has been removed by the board of directors. Oh, but with your shareholding, you can still hold one of Osborne's board seats.”
Connery grinned in victory.
"Hmph, I thought you had acquired fifty-one percent of Osborne's shares, but it turns out you only obtained authorization. Mr. Connery, you still prefer to be a dog."
Harry Osborn said sarcastically.
Connelly remained unmoved: "You have no idea how much power the new boss really has. Perhaps if you transfer your shares to the new boss, he might be able to help you get revenge, since you know him."
Harry Osborn was slightly startled.
Someone I know?
Harry Osborne recalled what Peter had said a few days earlier.
Their classmate Hao Longtao purchased a significant number of shares in the Osborne Group.
Harry Osborne felt nothing but contempt when he heard this.
Based on this orphaned Chinese?
Within the class, the person Harry Osborn least favored was Hao Longtao.
A dull and taciturn personality makes one a darling of others.
But I heard that he found a gangster outside the school who protected him for a long time.
"Hao Longtao? Is it Hao Longtao?"
Harry Osborn asked hastily.
“I believe you can find my boss, Harry. After all, my boss has very high expectations for you.”
Just now.
Peter Parker, however, went to the president's office.
"Harry, are you alright?" He then respectfully greeted Connery, "Good evening, Mr. Connery."
Connery glanced at Peter, this nobody was only assigned to the laboratory area because of Harry Osborn.
I heard that he had been in contact with Dr. Connor.
"Peter Parker, you've been fired by '533'."
Connery even began to doubt the identity of the spider beast from that night.
"what?"
Peter Parker looked completely bewildered.
But inside, he was screaming: Damn Hydra, you promised to help me take down the Osborn Group!
"Keep an eye on these two. From now on, revoke their privileges and prevent them from accessing company internal data."
Connery ignored them and gave orders to the security guards behind him.
Dr. Connor copied the company's most important biological experiment data, which was the biggest vulnerability in the company's security system.
During this period, the Osborne Group upgraded its internal security system.
In other words, from this moment on, the Osborne Group has been severing ties with Osborne.
"Peter, let's go."
Harry Osborne stared coldly at Connery.
Connery shrugged:
"You should understand that I am just a tool. I'm sorry, but I'm willing to be this tool. After all, as long as I can sit in the position of President Osborne, I have fulfilled my mission."
Connery knew that the money from the sale of Osborn stock had arrived in his account.
He remained with the Osborne Group largely out of coercion and pressure.
Whether it's Hao Longtao, the mysterious Spider-Man, or Dr. Lizard, none of them are people he can afford to offend for the time being.
Moreover, staying in Osborne ensures his current position.
“Peter, wait for me a while, I think I need to take care of some things.”
Harry Osborn calmed down.
Peter Parker nodded.
Harry Osborn is no longer of any value.
Considering how good he had been to me, I spared his life.
Furthermore, now that Osborne has fallen into Hao Longtao's hands, it's estimated that Hydra has no way of taking it back from him.
It's time to leave New York and follow Dr. Connor into the biological laboratory that Hydra has prepared for them.
