MTL - Centennial Family, Rising From Hong Kong Island-Chapter 354
"For the Italian government, this is not a glorious thing, and I don't want everyone to know about it, so I have a tacit understanding and no one will publicize it."
"But unfortunately, I didn't get too many shares, only 32%. If there is more, it is impossible for those noodle people to sell it to me."
The two were talking about an arms company acquisition.
Beretta is an old Italian arms company with a history of nearly 300 years. It was created from the age of arquebuses.
After repeated inheritance and change of hands, Beretta is still one of the top ten largest arms companies in the world today.
Mainly produces pistols, rifles, submachine guns, light and heavy machine guns, grenades, mines, howitzers and other conventional militarized weapons.
It is a well-known presence in the world, and its products are dumped all over the world.
In this financial crisis, Beretta's own business has not been greatly affected.
But one of its major shareholders was a business failure and had to sell Beretta shares to save other businesses.
So it just gave Su Shaoze a chance.
Moreover, the Beretta acquisition case is also Su Shaoze's bottom-hunting action, and it is rare that he did not take advantage of it.
The purchase price was even higher than Beretta's normal market value.
But even so, Su Shaoze still made a profit.
After all, not everyone has the opportunity to get involved in the arms business.
With Beretta's acquisition, Galaxy Group has planted a flag in the arms market, and it will be easier to acquire other military enterprises in the future.
The only pity is that because the Galaxy Group is a foreign company, it took a lot of effort to carry out public relations before winning Beretta's shares.
Only 32%!
Without a controlling stake, it is impossible for the Italian government to allow the Galaxy Group, a foreign company, to control a domestic arms company.
Although there are some regrets, Su Shaoze's goal has been achieved.
Galaxy Group has become Beretta's major shareholder, which has great convenience in many things.
The most important thing is influence and stealth deterrence.
[Some bosses said that there was a problem with the purchase price before, but it was actually a typesetting problem. It was written at 1.8 billion, but the displayed value seemed to be 10.8 billion. There was a zero in the middle, which was automatically generated. ].
Chapter 609 Top Ten Consortiums in the World [Seeking flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】
After Zheng Yuyin and the others played a few laps of live ammunition, they soon lost interest and returned to sit under the umbrella.
At this time, the bodyguards were standing far away, and Lin Mengmeng also left.
There were only a dozen or so men sitting on white chairs under the umbrellas, smoking cigars, wearing sunglasses, smoking cigarettes, and drinking ice-cold drinks.
Some people even wore short-sleeved pants and slippers, just like ordinary middle-aged and elderly citizens on Hong Kong Island.
Very casual!
"Beretta Arms Company was acquired by Azer?"
Gambling King He, who just sat down after shooting, said in surprise when he heard the words of Ship King Bao, and everyone else looked at Su Shaoze.
"There is no acquisition, only 32% of the shares. The noodle man does not allow me, a foreigner, to control his domestic arms company." Su Shaoze shook his head and explained again, with a pity on his face.
"That's quite a lot. Beretta Arms Company's equity is relatively scattered, and 32% is already a major shareholder." Hu Donglai said with smacking, a little envious~.
Arms companies are not something that ordinary people can acquire. They must have huge funds and extensive influence.
The shareholders behind the major arms giants in the world today are either countries, or some well-established forces or families.
A newly-rising billionaire like Hu Donglai, although he has money, is not so easy to acquire more than 10% of the shares of an arms company.
"It's a pity that our Hong Kong Island can't develop heavy industry, let alone the military industry. I also want to try the water in here?" He Gambling said regretfully.
From here, we can see the unfavorable conditions of Hong Kong Island. The terrain is narrow and the development potential is limited.
Although the monster giant Hong Kong Island Consortium was born, it also limited the development of the consortium.
Therefore, Su Shaoze and the others must break through, carry out financial colonization and plunder, and seek survival and development.
Facing the envy of Lao He and the others, Su Shaoze didn't care.
It is still relatively difficult to acquire military industrial enterprises now, but after four years, a large number of military industrial enterprises will be destroyed.
Bear is down!
The economy collapsed, and both workers and engineers were running out of food and had to make economic reforms.
Some munitions factories will also be on sale.
Su Shaoze has been in Maoziguo for a long time, and he is just waiting to buy the bottom. He can buy several arsenals, oil companies and so on.
Lao Maozi is not good in other aspects, but in terms of heavy industry and military industry, he still has a hard time.
After chatting for a while, it was time to get down to business.
The Hong Kong Island consortium will begin a comprehensive acquisition of the US market.
Su Shaoze's acquisition of the Internet industry is just an appetizer, the real big head is behind!
Of course, it can also be said that the father of the Hong Kong Island Consortium is preparing to wave US dollars to rescue the son of Mi Li's family who is in dire straits.
The acquisition of the Hong Kong Island consortium will suddenly make some US companies lose control, but a large influx of cash into the US market will also stimulate the recovery of the US economy.
"My acquisition targets will focus on the military, machinery, energy, finance, retail and entertainment media industries."
Su Shaoze said quietly.
More than 20 companies including General Electric, Citibank, Lockheed Martin Military Industry, Wal-Mart, Coca-Cola, AT&T and Boeing are all acquisition targets of Su Shaoze.
First clarify your intentions, divide the cake well, and avoid internal friction within the consortium during acquisitions.
Others also generally understand which companies Su Shaoze will attack, and will avoid them as much as possible.
Because even if they wanted to compete, they probably wouldn't be Su Shaoze's opponent.
The entire Hong Kong Island consortium was established with the Su clan chaebol as the core, and no one is as strong as Su Shaoze.
Fight for nothing!
After Su Shaoze finished speaking, everyone nodded lightly, and then Li Chaoren said, "I'm going to buy Niuyue's Fordman Company, Torta Company on the West Coast, Procter & Gamble Company in Washington State..."
Li Chaoren said the names of six companies.
His funds are far less abundant than Su Shaoze!
Su Shaoze can acquire more than 20 companies, but Li Chaoren's ability is limited to six or seven companies. Of course, this refers to at least obtaining a controlling stake.
What's more interesting is that among the names of the six companies mentioned by Li Chaoren, three of them are the names of real estate companies.
And now the owner of the Fordman real estate company is the unreliable Mr. Twitter who will rule the country in the future.
At this time, this unreliable gentleman is going through the second time of his company's three major crises. If the company is successfully acquired by Li Chaoren, maybe he can be seen in Washington in the future.
After Li Chaoren is Hu Donglai: "I am more optimistic about the financial industry in the United States, Hudson Insurance Company, Tumen Chemical Industry~"
Bao Chuanwang: "The health care product market in the United States is also very huge~"
He Gambling King: "I'm going to do my old job, Alaska is a very good place~"
Each of these people is like a group of old men plotting a conspiracy, more like a group of wolves, taking the entire U.S. market as their prey.
The targets of their acquisitions must be those industries that have a large market in the United States and can quickly recover after the stock market crash.
Health care products industry, food industry, pharmaceutical industry, insurance industry, retail industry, financial industry, real estate industry and so on!
In the health care product industry, Su Shaoze recommended McKesson, Bergen and other companies to them.
The good companies in the United States in the insurance industry are United States International and United Health~
Food belongs to Kroger and Kraft~
Of course, there are also fast food, KFC, McDonald's!
In a word, these twelve families are interested in people from all walks of life. Su Shaoze will also help one or two without infringing on his own interests. It is always possible to make a suggestion.
Anyway, with Su Shaoze's funds, it is impossible to eat so many companies.
Rather than being controlled by the Americans in the end, it is more important to fall into the hands of the Hong Kong Island consortium.
When a consortium stirred up the storm in the United States, Su Shaoze's personal behavior was not so abrupt.
In short, the Hong Kong Island Consortium has stretched out its sharp minions this time, pointing to the delicious fat of the United States.
After this war, the shareholders behind the scenes of a large number of companies in the United States will be the Hong Kong Island Consortium IV.
Chapter 610 The Last Shortcoming of the Galaxy Group [Ask for flowers! Ask for a monthly pass! 】
McKesson is one of the largest health supplement companies in the United States!
The market value is about 100 million US dollars. At this time, Bao Chuanwang has won 64% of the shares, which is a lot.
It can be said that McKesson has already surnamed Bao!
But apparently someone wants to do something!
The person watching Ship King Bao was an outsider who wanted to bully him, or someone didn't want to see the Kowloon Group taking control of Maxson.
Don't think that the health care company is selling fake medicines, it's actually a regular business.
There is a very broad market in the United States, and one-tenth of the top 100 domestic companies in the United States are operating health care products.
Very profitable!
Bao Chuanwang has a good eye, and he has set his sights on this business.
So his people were also kidnapped, and Su Shaoze couldn't be indifferent to this.
Because at this time, Ship King Bao represented not only himself, but also the Hong Kong Island Consortium.
If a strong counterattack cannot be made, it will create a weak and bullying impression on those Americans.
Thinking that 20 Hong Kong Islanders dare not play with them, there will only be more trouble in the future.
Because Su Shaoze clearly remembered that in the last life, the shorties of the island country were madly clamoring to buy the entire United States, and they also encountered this problem when they bought American companies aggressively.
Employees are threatened, kidnapped, and even calling the police is useless.
The whole world knows the virtues of the American police.
In the end, the islanders had to leave the United States in despair.
Although the most fundamental reason is the stagnation of the island country's economic development and the bursting of the bubble, it has to be said that part of the reason is the fright of the Americans!
Although these low-level means can't play a fundamental role, McKesson still belongs to the Kowloon Group in law, and no one can change it.
But I have to say, it was really disgusting.
Therefore, at this time, the Hong Kong Island consortium must be strong and give the Americans a bad feeling of being bullied.
Although Ship King Bao also has some energy in the United States, he is definitely not as good as Su Shaoze, so it is best to ask Su Shaoze to help at this time.
"Lao Hu has acquired 54% of the shares of Hudson Insurance Company, Tumen Chemical has acquired 35%, but he has the opportunity to become the chairman, and there are other scattered stocks."
Su Shaoze told Bao Chuanwang about the situation of other people, and it was not bad. There was no problem in the acquisition process. When he took control of the company, he encountered some obstacles, but it was not a big problem.
"The Lin family bought Kroger Foods. This company is very good. There are factories all over the United States, and it even receives orders from the Pentagon every year."
One of the suppliers of supplies to the military!
"Lao Zheng won California State Insurance~"
"Li Chaoren has encountered some trouble. The owner of Niuyue Fudman Real Estate Company, a gentleman named Unreliable, has a very stubborn temper. Even though the company is about to go bankrupt, he still insists on not selling his company shares."
"I can only wish him the best of luck."
"However, Li Chaoren's acquisition of other companies went smoothly."
...
These days, the Hong Kong Island consortium has gained something in the United States.
Basically, one or two companies have been acquired, and at worst they have entered the board of directors. These companies will be the top 100 companies in the US asset rankings in the future.
In terms of influence and profitability, the acquisition of these companies has greatly enhanced the power of the Hong Kong Island consortium.
And on Su Shaoze's side, the situation is also very good.
