Chapter 2593 Some people are happy and some are sad
Xiao Qi didn't know about the sadness of the Wei brothers.
But even if Xiao Qi knew about it, he would not sympathize with them.
That is to say, Xiao Qi is not here, otherwise I have to ridicule them. If you don't do those bad things, I may only acquire the holding shares. While retaining your shares, I will also let you continue to be in charge of Dingxin Group.
But the four brothers of the Wei family have lost their conscience in order to make money. How could Xiao Qi put them in the management position of Dingxin Group?
Just because the products of the previous millennium masters were not inspected does not mean that they did not do bad things.
After all, the Baodao area is their hometown, and they dare to knowingly commit crimes, let alone the mainland that is separated by one layer.
Even if he didn't do it now, with his previous criminal record, Xiao Qi still couldn't trust them and wouldn't give them another chance to harm the people in the mainland.
You know, these convenience foods are eaten by millions of people every day. How important is this? How can you ignore it?
Just when Xu Weihong arrived in Baodao and discussed with the Wei brothers how to buy and sell shares and hand over the Dingxin Group, a wave of cheers erupted in Hong Kong.
Because there are still more than 10%-15% of the shares of Master Bran Holdings and Master Bran Beverage Holdings in circulation in the Hong Kong market.
Xiao Qi did not treat them badly. When the stock price plummeted, he raised the price by 60% to acquire the shares at a price exceeding the closing price on the day when the privatization was declared. Why don't you think those Hong Kong stockholders who hold the shares are not excited?
In fact, in the past few days, Master Nan and Master Nan’s beverages have fallen a lot, with a drop of 40%. Xiao Qi is just buying them at 120% of the price before the plunge, which is nothing.
But in the eyes of Hong Kong investors, Xiao Qi is kind enough. Not only did he arrange for the sharing of beautiful pictures to be listed in Hong Kong, but he also treated Hong Kong investors in every way. He really has a good relationship with Hong Kong. It seems that the gossip spread that he has two beauties in Hong Kong.
The news about the female celebrity’s wife is probably true!
Hong Kong people love the grudges of wealthy families the most. Have you not seen those TV series that Hong Kong is famous for? They basically involve the grudges of wealthy families?
As for how many wives the super rich have married, how many they have made out, etc., those are all lively things and have nothing to do with us ordinary people anyway, right?
Therefore, even if many people speculate that Feng Kexin and Li Shaozhi are Xiao Qi's concubines, there is no contempt for them.
On the contrary, countless beauties envied the two of them and wished they could join in and become Xiao Qi's little love!
This is the case here in Hong Kong, and it is actually similar in Taiwan. When Gossip News interviewed Ling Shuangshuang last time, everyone also viewed it with this mentality, and there was no condemnation.
Similarly, Xiao Qi also wanted to acquire shares in many companies in Baodao, such as Dicos, Weiquan Group, Hede, Fengchuo, etc. Among them, the stock price of Weiquan Group, the only listed company, has plummeted by 60%. But Xiao Qi
The bid was 180%, which set a record for Baodao's privatization and delisting. It also made Baodao people feel that Xiao Qi was indeed an Asali and worthy of being Baodao's son-in-law!
All right.
The Baodao people’s gossip mentality is really deep-rooted.
However, some people are happy and some are sad.
People in Taiwan and Hong Kong are happy. But Lymart Co., Ltd. in Japan is a little unhappy.
Lymart is the fourth largest retail terminal in Japan. There are more than 7,000 stores in Japan, more than 5,000 stores in South Korea, and now there are 2,500 stores in Baodao. There are more than 400 stores in Thailand, totaling more than 15,000 stores.
The store can be said to be very prosperous.
In the future, they will also develop greatly in mainland China. There are more than 800 stores in Dongfang alone, and there are about 200 stores in Guangdong. When Chinese society reaches a certain stage of development, things like 24-hour convenience stores will only
More and more.
Although their market value is only US$4 billion, this is mostly because they mostly rent stores to open stores, so they don't have that much assets.
Although it is only the fourth largest 24-hour retail store in Japan, everyone knows the development potential of Lymart. Otherwise, JPMorgan Chase would not have helped Xiao Qi acquire the shares at a price of 120% and then take them back.
The agency fee is almost 200 million US dollars.
With 69.5% of the shares, he is undoubtedly the largest shareholder of Lymart and meets the status of absolute controlling shareholder. Therefore, Xiao Qi's request for privatization and delisting is completely in line with the rules.
What's more, the price offered by Xiao Qi is not low, it is 138% of the stock price on the day of application for privatization, which is considered a high acquisition price in Japan.
Xiao Qi entrusted Nomura Securities to do this. After the entire process, they would get almost US$200 million in benefits.
Although the difficulty is not small, compared with the difficulty, the profit of 200 million US dollars is enough to make Nomura Securities bow down. What's more, this is also a good opportunity to climb up Xiao Qi. Think about the benefits gained by Goldman Sachs, Citigroup, JPMorgan Chase and other companies.
Well, how could Nomura Securities not be moved?
But Nomura ran into trouble.
Although the management of Lymart only holds 3% of the shares, their influence in Lymart is too great. After Xiao Qi announced the privatization of Lymart headquarters in Japan, they began to control their direct-operated stores.
, franchise stores have been connected in various ways.
When Nomura Securities came to visit, hoping that they could cooperate with the delisting procedures, 80% of Lymart stores that were fans of A wrote slogans on the door of their stores.
“I don’t want Chinese people to buy Lymart!”
"Please respect our wishes, we want to remain in control of our own people!"
"Resolutely oppose the erosion of Japanese society by foreign capital!"
"..."
Protests such as these appeared in various parts of Japan and immediately aroused great enthusiasm in the Japanese media.
The Japanese have always despised and feared the rising Chinese people. Although facing Xiao Qi, the unprecedented richest man in the world, they could not refute or compare, but generally speaking, in recent years,
Conflicting emotions among the people are piling up.
When they encountered such a good opportunity, of course they had to make good use of it and publicize it vigorously.
Those managers who are obsessed with Lymart are constantly appearing on TV. Some of them are very smart and even burst into tears. It is really an indescribable grievance.
Nomura Securities was furious when he saw this, "Sir, I finally accepted such an order. You have already acquired 69.5% of your shares by others. Why are you still making such a fuss?"
Say you feel wronged?
So many Japanese companies have been acquired by others, are they aggrieved?
Are Japanese companies aggrieved when they go to foreign countries to acquire companies?
This is normal commercial behavior. Why do you make such a fuss?
Nomura Securities is the number one securities company in Asia, controlling hundreds of billions of dollars in assets, and is certainly a well-deserved giant in Japan.
Originally, they were thinking about how to get the management of Lymart, a fan of A, to give in. However, the NBC TV station in the United States directly broadcast a news special called "The Damn Japanese"
All right.
Just looking at this title is very lethal, let alone the content.
The host of this special issue is Mo Tina, one of the five most poisonous tongues in the United States. Even though she is a woman, her usually harsh words are unbearable to many Americans.
But people who like her like her very much.
For example, this time I criticized the Japanese, and many people tuned in to watch it.
"I don't know if those Japanese people grew up eating shit! Such normal business activities were treated so unfairly by them. It seemed as if Xiao Qi had robbed them of their money! In fact? Xiao Qi was
Through very normal means, I purchased the shares of major shareholders and reached an absolute controlling share of 69.5% before launching a privatization invitation.
According to the Japanese, they don’t want foreigners to destroy the society they have worked so hard to build. I can only express k (bad sound) to this! If you say so, why do you come to the United States to buy so many companies? Columbia Pictures
Who bought it? Who bought Rockefeller Plaza? Others can’t control what you buy, and you just chirp when others buy it, k (bad pronunciation)!”
Motina still has a lot to say, and the above paragraph is relatively gentle. There are more sarcastic and scolding words about Japanese people, which even Japanese netizens are embarrassed to read.
Europe has also begun to express its support, and the British company BB has also raised questions. If the spirit of this commercial contract cannot be abided by and they want to rely on so-called acquisitions by foreigners as an excuse, then what future does this country have?
How can we do business with them? If I buy a Japanese company, I'm afraid they will use this excuse to take it back one day, right?
What bb said is a bit heartbreaking.
Of course, the Japanese business community is unwilling to accept such slander.
The chairman of Mitsui & Co., Ltd. first came out to express his position. We in Japan do not have such rules. This kind of protest that is not on the stage is just the behavior of a few people and cannot represent the Japanese business community.
The president of Fuji Bank also quickly clarified that Lymart fans have their own considerations and difficulties. He hopes that they will have a good discussion with Mr. Xiao Qi and strive to achieve a result that is satisfactory to both parties.
The governor of Shizuoka Prefecture made a statement saying that the behavior of the management of Lymart is wrong and hopes that they will conduct a self-examination and not ruin the image of the Japanese business community.
…
All of a sudden, all the trends changed, and the changes were so rapid that even Lymart’s management couldn’t stand it.
Xiao Qi hasn't made a move yet, so why isn't the advantage on our side?
