In the spring at New York University, there are pairs of men and women all around who are passionately in love. They hug each other under the shade of the trees, kiss passionately on the lawn, and among the unknown woods, the open-minded men and women don't even care about other people's ambiguous looks.
It's a good thing. For these young and impulsive men and women with excessive secretion of hormones, love is like new buds in spring, popping up everywhere on campus.
This kind of open style is very common in many campuses in the United States. It's better in universities. At least these people have some financial foundation. They can find part-time jobs in their spare time and have seen all kinds of society. In and
When male and female friends meet, they will find a relatively private place, or go to a hotel outside to book a room. As for those high school students who have just tried it, they will not mind the eyes of others at all except their parents, and they will be there at any time.
You can have some passion in a dark place anywhere.
It’s not surprising after seeing them many times. Both generations studied in American universities and have seen many such students. Feng Yifeng no longer blushes when he first saw them, and avoids them as soon as possible to avoid hindering other people’s good deeds. He is here
If you see these bad guys and girls in the jungle, dormitory, or rooftop on campus, you won’t avoid them in a hurry. Those you know will even say hello and let them enjoy themselves. Those you don’t know will playfully ask if they need help.
I don't believe that anyone would leave the beautiful girl behind and chase him. The most they can do is scold him harshly and say a few superficial words.
Sitting on a bench under the shade of the trees, she held in her hand a letter from her daughter in England. It contained not only her concerns about herself during this period, but also the fact that she accompanied Weng’s mother and uncle on their travels during Christmas and New Year.
In addition to these photos, there are also some small gifts she collected from various places, which were also sent together. Looking at the girl in the photo, her cute little face is filled with a happy smile. It reminds Feng Yifeng of being with her in Hong Kong.
The scenes and memories of life are so memorable and unforgettable.
"Beep beep... beep beep..." Just as Feng Yifeng was reminiscing about the good times in the past, the pager in his pocket rang at an inappropriate time. "There must be something going on in the company." Feng Yifeng knew without even thinking that it was the person who paged him.
, the only people who knew this number were the senior officials of the company, and the old professor who was very nagging. He had just finished the old professor’s class, and it was definitely not him who was calling him at this time, so the only thing was that there was something wrong with the company.
Looking for myself.
There are free telephone numbers in the dormitories, cafeterias, and security rooms in the university that you can call, so you don't have to go out of the campus hard. "Hey! It's me, what's the matter?" Feng Yifeng answered the phone, and Carlos came over the phone.
Mr.’s voice. “Boss, there’s something going on over there in Hong Kong. Do you want to come back and take a look?”
"Oh? Have you finally taken action? Well, I'll be back now." Feng Yifeng knew what Carlos was talking about. He asked Dent to send someone to watch 24 hours a day, just to wait for news from Hong Kong.
He ran to the parking place, stepped on his bicycle, and sprinted towards the company at the speed of a professional cyclist. Fortunately, it was not the busy time for commuting, and there was not much traffic and people on the street. Feng Yifeng could
I kept driving at high speed and arrived at the company in the shortest time.
Panting, he came to the room specially prepared for this acquisition battle. Carlos, Dent and Faith were already waiting there, as well as four traders specifically responsible for this acquisition.
"How is the situation?" Before he could catch his breath, he hurriedly asked the people in the room.
"News just came from Hong Kong. Liu Luanxiong held a press conference and explained that because he could not cooperate harmoniously with the management of Shanghai Hotel, he decided to withdraw from the board of directors and launched a hostile takeover of Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotel Co., Ltd.
Hong Kong is in chaos, and the stock price of Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Co., Ltd. in the UK has risen rapidly. Since the press conference was held, it has risen by 0.3 pounds per share. It seems that this momentum will continue."
Ross looked at the screen and explained the current situation.
"So is there any news from the Kadoorie family? Is there any response from the Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotel?" Feng Yifeng also noticed the stock information about the Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotel Co., Ltd. on the screen.
Carlos and Faith both shook their heads. One was responsible for the operation, and the other was responsible for the intelligence work.
"The Hong Kong and Shanghai Hotels Co., Ltd., the Kadoorie family, Liu Luanxiong, and other British businessmen in Hong Kong should pay attention to the developments. We are not in a hurry to take action now. We will wait until the abnormal development develops. Mr. Faith, you are here
Let everyone pay attention to collecting intelligence in this area. People in these three places must be watched 24 hours a day. I want them to know in detail who they meet every day, where they go to drink tea and eat, and even when they go to the bathroom.
information."
Seeing Faith's silent nod, Feng Yifeng transferred to Carlos. "Are those shell companies ready? The later we are exposed, the greater our chances of winning. I don't want to fall short in the end."
"Don't worry, this time we have prepared eleven companies to prepare for this acquisition battle. These companies are all registered in Bermuda, Iceland, and the Caribbean. It may not be that easy to find the information of these companies."
Carlos was very confident. He had done many such acquisitions before. If he hadn't been frustrated for a time, he wouldn't have made it clear that he would no longer participate in the trading. This time, it was Feng Yifeng's repeated requests that made him reluctantly do so.
As a plan, try to improve unexpected situations that may arise during the acquisition.
"Humph! Da Liu! Are you really like that in the last life? You took risks before you were ready. Let me see what your next trump card is. Hostile takeover? Kadoorie is like that
The big family has the support of many British businessmen behind them. You want to shake their position in the big hotel with just one sentence? I'm afraid it's not that easy!" Feng Yifeng has always been very fond of the battle that made Liu Luanxiong famous in his previous life.
Curious, it is a pity that he did not have the opportunity to participate in it at that time. He only learned about it in detail later, but he still did not understand what Liu Luanxiong was thinking in his heart at that time. So why did he rashly propose to Liu Luanxiong who is now obviously lacking in strength?
"Hostile takeover" is curious.
"Hostile acquisition" refers to the acquisition activities carried out by the acquiring company without the permission of the target company's board of directors, regardless of the other party's consent. The parties use various offensive and defensive strategies to complete the acquisition, and hope to obtain a controlling stake and become a major shareholder.
Among shareholders, strong antagonism between the two parties is its basic feature. Unless the target company's stock has high circulation and can be easily absorbed in the market, acquisition will be difficult. Hostile acquisitions may lead to surprise acquisitions. Acquisition companies that conduct hostile acquisitions are generally called
As "The Black Knight".
The room was very quiet, except for the noise made by the traders from time to time when they pressed the small keyboard, and even everyone's breathing was kept as low as possible.
The door to the room opened, and a clerk in a suit walked in. The paper in his hand was handed to Feng Yifeng, "Boss, the latest news from Hong Kong."
There wasn't much information on the paper, just a few lines. It just said that after Liu Luanxiong held a press conference, he secretly cashed out his China Entertainment Company, Aimei Gao and Lixin Garments. Now it is in
Raising enough funds, he also sold the hotel shares he held at high prices through other channels.
Carlos took the paper and read it, and Faith also took it and looked at it. He looked at Feng Yifeng and Carlos with doubts on his face. He knew nothing about acquisitions. Now he was full of doubts, "Why did Liu Luanxiong not only cash out his company?"
, and he also needs to sell the shares in the hotel he holds, so he has to buy it back again in the future, isn't it unnecessary?"
Whether it was Feng Yifeng or Carlos, even the traders burst out laughing after hearing Faith's question.
Seeing these people laughing, Faith realized that he had asked a very stupid question. However, after he carefully read the information on the piece of paper in his hand, he was still confused and did not understand that he was so wrong.
Carlos also took advantage of the fact that there was not much movement in Hong Kong to educate Faith, "I think Mr. Faith has also understood the economic strength of Liu Luanxiong and the Kadoorie family, right? No outsiders have joined or participated in it.
"In terms of the amount of capital, which one do you think will win?"
"Of course it's the Kadoorie family. They are all well-established British business families, and their accumulation over a hundred years is no small matter. Although Liu Luanxiong has developed well in recent years, how can it be possible to compare with the capital of such a family?"
"Yes, you, a layman, think so, so do you think those senior stock brokers will miss this kind of information? I'm afraid Liu Luanxiong himself knows that it is impossible to acquire a big hotel by himself. He doesn't have that much
He used the funds to acquire the shares of the hotel and became a major shareholder. So before he had prepared sufficient funds, he first announced his intention to acquire the hotel in a high-profile manner, which caused a shock in the market. Then those who held shares in the hotel
Retail investors will definitely pursue these stocks at the same time, so Liu Luanxiong can take advantage of the opportunity to exchange the stocks in his hands for maximum benefits." Carlos clasped his hands and analyzed Liu Luanxiong's actions for Faith in great detail.
Faith understood, but he still had a lot of questions. "Then he exchanged all the stocks in his hands for money, and the stocks also appreciated. Even if he wanted to acquire again, wouldn't he have to increase his funds again? This can be said to be
The gain outweighs the loss, unless he wants to buy a big hotel which is just a smokescreen."
"No, Liu will not do anything in vain. It is certain that he will acquire a big hotel, but he will not take action until the most important moment. From my point of view, if the outside world is reluctant to take action against him, he will definitely think that he has insufficient funds.
The acquisition has been given up. Then the market will slowly digest the impact of this so-called false acquisition, and the hotel's stock price will definitely return to its original level. The Kadoorie family is also likely to relax its vigilance. At that time
This is the best time for Liu to take action. As for what means he will use, it is not clear. We will wait and see, but his action will definitely make the Kadoorie family confused and unprepared. At that time, the Kadoorie family will definitely increase the stock price and bring down other directors.
Get the shares in your hands as much as possible. At this time, Liu can advance, attack, retreat or defend. He will wait and see. If he feels that something can be done, he will not hesitate to take over the hotel. If not, he will take over the hotel.
, Kadoorie is also happy to take back Liu’s shares in the hotel at a high price. No matter what, he has made a profit, it depends on whether the profit is the entire hotel or money."
Feng Yifeng accurately dissected Liu Luanxiong's basic motives. Both Carlos and the traders nodded their heads in agreement. It seemed that they had already seen the fishiness in it. Things would really go as Feng Yifeng said.
Will it develop like that? Will he be able to become another oriole that smoothly?
