Reborn Capital Madman
Chapter 0804 With a loud bang, the bet turned over
Several flowers have bloomed, let me show you one first, and continue to move forward along the timeline of Yihe, so as not to make the book lovers impatient with the gradual ending, or forget the causes and consequences.
Peter Wei, Simon Keswick, and Bowers had engaged in such a big move of betting against each other, and they would definitely have to give a face-to-face explanation to Gao Xian, who had returned safely to Xiangjiang.
Gao Xian made it clear without any grudges that it was worth the price to get a final say, and you have the authority to act cheaply.
Peter Wei is still a little worried. Is it too tight to finalize the acquisition of Frasers Department Store Group before Christmas?
Gao Xian didn't take it seriously. He had been in contact with Frasa Department Store Group for a long time. It started after completing the acquisition of Stamford Bridge Stadium Company. If it still can't be done before Christmas, there is no need to waste feelings anymore.
It's better to go after Fraser's Department Store Group's competitors.
Of course, until everything is settled, betting is definitely not something that should be publicized everywhere.
Jardine, who has evil intentions, is still abiding by the rules, and the impatient statement is limited to, creditor dads, don't force us anymore. Now the situation has turned around. Jardine is negotiating with the former family to acquire land, discuss merger matters, and financial situation
Things will get better soon. For example, Land has just allocated 200 million in working capital.
Land does not deny that we have been studying the company's next development plan, and marriage with Jardine Matheson is one of the options worth considering.
Obviously, this is heavy news that shocked the industry. Putting aside the drama between Land and Jardine Matheson in recent years, the status of the two companies in Hong Kong alone is worthy of special mention.
Of course, Jardine's creditors bought into this, and the most important thing was to ensure that their debts would not turn into waste paper.
There are also thoughtful creditors of Jardine who are doubtful. For so many years, the Keswick family has been trying their best to protect its controlling stake in Jardine. Why are they suddenly becoming generous now? Is it possible that they are playing a delaying tactic to gain a breathing space? So
I asked, after the merger of Jardine Matheson and Land, how to determine the management? In the current two teams, who is on top and who is on the bottom?
Simon Keswick said humbly that the addition of Land and Land can significantly improve Jardine's financial situation in a short period of time. For such a great contribution, the new Taipan is naturally none other than Peter Wei. As for other positions, both parties will work together to
Distribution will be carried out through friendly consultation.
Neutral financial observers have written articles pointing out that I am afraid that the merger of Jardine Matheson and Land will not be as smooth as creditors expect. After all, both companies are large in scale, and the negotiation process involves such things as the specific distribution of power.
There are too many details like this, and gaming and wrangling are definitely inevitable. If we can get results within a year and a half, it can be considered a success.
Sure enough, within just over a month, Jardine and Land began to quarrel openly. Only then did the outside world know that a gambling agreement was involved.
…
Peter Wei's anxiety is increasing day by day. Although he has been mentally prepared, Simon Keswick, Bowers and others are not fuel-efficient lamps, but Yihe shows a shameless face and opens his mouth with a playful smile every half a month to ask for land repurchase.
Giving money and helping with turnover refreshed my initial understanding.
As for the audit, on the surface, Jardine is very cooperative, but the pile of accounts is still overwhelming, and the results also show that Jardine does need capital turnover.
What gives Peter Wei some comfort is that the 200 million he gave at the beginning can be included in the money to get back the New Central Land King project, but the premise is that the acquisition of Frasers Department Store Group by British Land is completed as scheduled.
, and the price cannot be too high, so that Xiangjiang will be a good deal.
Land's contact with Frasers Hospitality Group is not fruitless. There are very few shareholders of Frasers Hospitality Group who insist that Frasers Hospitality Group is not for sale, but they are very consistent on one point of view, that is, Land's bid will cost
Everyone is satisfied enough; and they have promised that after the successful acquisition of Frasers Hospitality Group, they must continue to support its expansion without reservation.
To sum up, these guys in the UK have a huge appetite and want to ruthlessly kill Land, a rich man from Hong Kong. If you want to get a bargain like Stamford Bridge Stadium, there is no way!
With the help of Gaoyi, Landmark must have a formula for how to settle accounts that is most beneficial to itself. Naturally, it cannot just let the lion of Frasa Department Store Group speak out.
"It seems that the Keswick family is secretly adding fuel to the fire to Land's bottom line in the UK." During this period of time, former Jardine Taipan Nubijian, who had been helping out a lot, said to Gao Xian with some embarrassment.
It reminds me that when he was the Taipan of Jardine He, he often made small moves.
Regarding this, Gao Xian had no trouble in his heart. Isn't this the way things are played in society and in shopping malls? If he were in the position of the Keswick family, he would probably interfere with it.
"Continue to maintain communication with Roland Smith, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Fraser's Department Store Group, and further carry out the work of Alec Craddock, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Harrods Department Store, flagship store of Fraser's Department Store." Gao Xian gave instructions, "If there is
Harrods department store, which is certified by the royal family, can be purchased separately, and even if the price is higher, it is still acceptable."
Niubijian took the order, and Peter Wei was a little depressed. Gao Xian's instructions were very rational, but according to his own vision, the plan to secure the New Central Land King project as soon as possible was about to go awry.
Just when Waypeter's grand plan was about to come to nothing, and the mysterious smile on Simon Keswick's face became increasingly difficult to hide, there was a sudden loud bang, and the bet turned over.
At around one o'clock on December 17, a car bomb planted by the Irish Republican Army exploded outside Harrods department store. Five people, including police, reporters, and onlookers, died on the spot, and another policeman was sent to the hospital.
He later died of his injuries, and ninety people were injured, resulting in heavy losses.
During this period, Thatcher's government faced three major problems in the UK: stagflation, the growing power of trade unions, and the unpreventable sabotage activities of the Irish Republican Army.
The Governor-General, Earl Mountbatten, would have been killed by a bomb a few years ago if it had not been for Gao Xian.
The IRA's idea was simple and crude. It could not defeat the British from the front, so it attacked the British from the rear. Starting in the 1970s, iconic commercial facilities such as Harrods Department Store were listed as targets.
It was an obvious success.
It can be said that the UK was very passive in the face of this situation. To give a random example, the IRA made a phone call to inform them that a bomb had been planted somewhere, and the police went there. It was finally confirmed that it was a false alarm; the next time, the IRA would call again.
The phone call informed me that a bomb had been planted somewhere and the police still had to go.
Such repetitions have made Britain exhausted, and it may be true one time. Once the bomb explodes, it will cause heavy losses.
Take the car bombing of Harrods as an example. Alec Craddock, chairman of the board of directors of Harrods, announced that Harrods had lost more than one million pounds as a result and would be closed for three days.
The Irish Republican Army openly admitted that, yes, it was us who did this. Don’t think about having a good time this Christmas, go and enjoy it yourself.
Peter Wei had mixed feelings after seeing the news. The acquisition of Frasers Hospitality Group was progressing slowly, but it seemed like it was a blessing in disguise.
Peter Wei was struggling when suddenly Roland Smith, chairman of the board of directors of Frasers Hospitality Group, took the initiative to call, "Well, the shareholders have no objection to Land's acquisition of Frasers Department Store Group. Come over quickly and confirm it in person."
In the past, Peter Wei would have been overjoyed to receive this call, but now he is a little hesitant. Your flagship store has casually lost one million pounds. No one can bear it.
Roland Smith, lower your profile, the price is negotiable, you come to London first.
After putting down the phone, Peter Wei quickly went to ask Gao Xian for instructions, should we still pick up this bargain?
Gao Xian's meaning is very simple. If 500 million pounds can be used to win over Fraser's Department Store Group, it is still a bargain.
So, Peter Way stopped hesitating and set off immediately. When he arrived in London, he heard on the news that as soon as he landed, the Irish Republican Army had issued another mysterious bomb threat. It was really hard to spend this Christmas safely.
After the two parties met, they went straight to the topic. After all, we had been in contact for a long time, and no issues that needed to be discussed were missed.
Peter Wei insisted that I am under great pressure now. If the acquisition amount does not exceed 500 million pounds, I can immediately confirm the transaction on behalf of Land's board of directors.
Roland Smith bargained. Although the price of 500 million pounds is a little less, it is not unacceptable. You must respect the current management of Frasers Department Store Group; and your commitment to fully support the further expansion of Frasers Department Store Group remains unchanged.
There was definitely no rush to make personnel transfers. Peter Wei made the decision happily on the spot, and the deal was concluded.
There is no doubt that this news needs to be notified to Jardine Matheson immediately. Land has completed the acquisition of Frasers Department Store Group before Christmas, spending 500 million pounds. According to the gambling agreement, this is the price of the new Central Land King project.
, don’t forget, we have already given you 200 million Hong Kong dollars.
Simon Keswick, who was preparing to return to Scotland for Christmas, was furious when he received the news. What kind of bad luck did Landmark have? The new Central Land King project has been auctioned and developed for more than 500 million pounds. Jardine Matheson
I was already heavily in debt, and I was planning to use real estate for a while. How could I suffer such losses again?
Seeing that Yihe was showing signs of cheating, Real Estate was naturally furious. They immediately started quarreling at a regular meeting between the two parties and almost got into a fight.
Gao Xian, who had received the news a long time ago, just stood aside and watched. He was originally using Zhidi to contain and torture Yihe. You ghosts will fight on your own!
