I lost my vegetative state, and I became the richest man in the world

Chapter 786 The Empire Group quietly swallowed Xiangjiang's third largest foreign firm and shocked everyone in Xiangjiang!
1983 2 Month 10 Day.

The 28th of the twelfth lunar month.

Thursday.

18:00 in the evening.

Imperial Group meeting room.

At this time, many journalist representatives came here.

The Imperial Group has not held an important press conference for some time. This time, these journalist representatives received a call from the Imperial Group in the afternoon, and reporters from major newspapers and periodicals immediately got ready to come to the Imperial Group conference room.

Not long.

Conference room here.

First, Mr. Meris, the general manager of the Imperial Group, Ms. Tang Shilian, the financial director of the Imperial Group, and John Bao, the former vice chairman of Huifeng Bank, appeared.

Even, Mr. Zhang Yuliang, the Zhang family's largest shareholder of Wheelock & Co., Mr. John Maseng, the second largest shareholder of Wheelock & Co., and executives from various groups under Wheelock & Co., were all invited to come to this meeting.

Last night, John Ma Deng had learned that Sir Yang had invited John Bao to take over his position. From this point of view, John Ma Deng really admired Sir Yang's mind and ability.

Others think that Sir Yang is Chinese, and he will definitely reuse Chinese elites. Now the Empire Group and its major executives are still mainly white.

From this point of view, John Ma Deng felt that there were not many people in Xiangjiang who could match Sir Yang's vision.

These people are here in the conference room.

The reporters below were all very surprised when they saw it.

Could it be that the Imperial Group has acquired Wheelock & Co.?

How else could the major shareholders and executives of Defeng Foreign Bank appear here?

Yang Ming did not appear at this press conference, and it was Meris who presided over today's conference.

Meris sat in the chief seat, and on the left and right were Zhang Yuliang and John Maseng.

After Zhang Yuliang and John Ma Deng met just now, the two of them are no longer the same as before. After they are no longer partners, the relationship has become normal instead. It was resolved.

"My friends from the press, this time you hold a press conference because you have something very important to announce."

"Mr. Merris, is it related to Wheelock & Company?"

Immediately a reporter picked up the microphone and asked.

. . .

These reporters are so excited.

Last year, Imperial Group swallowed up 11 Chinese-funded banks in Xiangjiang, directly solving the crisis of Chinese-funded banks in Xiangjiang. At that time, it really shocked Xiangjiang, Nanyang, and even the whole world.

At this time, if it is true that Defeng, the third largest foreign guild in Xiangjiang, is swallowed up again, it will be even more shocking.

In 1978, Imperial Group swallowed up Wharf and Hutchison.

Later, the Imperial Group even swallowed up Jardine Land, the largest foreign company in Hong Kong.

Imperial has also been buying other companies since then.

Including, Xiangjiang Waterworks Company, Xiangjiang Electric Lighting Company, and even Xiangjiang Mass Transit Railway Company, Xiangjiang Kowloon Bus Company, Xiangjiang Zhonghua Bus Company and so on.

However, in terms of comprehensive strength, Wheelock & Co. can rank third among the four major foreign firms in Xiangjiang, which is enough to show that its scale is very large.

In this regard, Chen Songqing's Carrian Group was not compared with Wheelock and Swire before it went bankrupt and liquidated. In fact, it was used by the media and Chen Songqing to raise the stock price of Carrian Group.

The two are not on the same level at all.

Meris looked at the excited and shocked reporters, and continued: "After the friendly talks between our Empire Group and the Zhang family, the largest shareholder of Wheelock, and the Ma Seng family, the second largest shareholder of Wheelock, we have decided to Wheelock's A shares are 5.5 Hong Kong dollars per share, and B shares are 0.55 Hong Kong dollars per share. They have acquired all the shares of Wheelock's largest shareholder and second largest shareholder. In addition, over the past few years, Imperial Group has also been acquiring Wheelock’s A shares and B shares are calculated based on the effective controlling stake, and as of today, the Imperial Group’s effective controlling stake in Wheelock has reached 51%.”

Shock!

Every word Melis said!

The reporters present were shocked!

. . .

at this time.

It is the rush hour for get off work in Xiangjiang.

Li Jiacheng was sitting in his luxurious Mercedes.

I don't know why, but the most important thing is an inexplicable annoyance.

Li Jiacheng's full-time driver encountered the traffic lights ahead and could only stop and wait.

At this time, the Xiangjiang radio station on the car has just been broadcasting news from Xiangjiang and International.Li Jiacheng likes to listen to the news the most. When he is in the car, he either reads the newspaper or listens to the news.

"The following is an important news. It was just sent back by Ms. Cai Lifen, the reporter of our station, in the conference room of the Empire Group. The Empire Group and the Zhang family, the largest shareholder of Wheelock, and the Ma Deng family, the second largest shareholder of Wheelock, have signed Acquisition contract,..., Empire Group formally acquires Xiangjiang No. [-] Trading Co., Ltd."

The Imperial Group actually acquired Xiangjiang's third largest foreign firm?

After Li Jiacheng heard it, he couldn't believe it.

When did Imperial Group acquire Wheelock?
Why is there no news from him at all?

If it was before the Imperial Group acquired other companies, he would have received some rumors in advance, such as Wharf, Hutchison Whampoa, Heung Kong Electric Company, etc., he had made a fortune.

Now that the Imperial Group has quietly swallowed up Hong Kong's third largest foreign firm, Tak Fung Co., Ltd., and used nearly 20 billion Hong Kong dollars in funds, he really didn't know it at all.

Li Jiacheng's expression became a little ugly.

However, at this time, you can only sit here.

Li Jiacheng drove back to Bao's villa in Deep Water Bay.

Holding the briefcase, he walked in a little tired.

Mrs. Zhuang Yueming came out to greet her, and seeing her husband's expression was very ugly.

"Sir, what happened?"

"Just now, the Imperial Group has officially acquired Wheelock & Company."

Zhuang Yueming was also shocked when he heard it.

Why hasn't she heard anything about the acquisition of Wheelock by the Imperial Group?

"Sir, is this true?"

"I just listened to the radio host in the car."

If so, then it must be true.

Zhuang Yueming was once again shocked and speechless.

The most important thing is that the Empire Group's acquisition of Wheelock & Co., Ltd. is to directly persuade the largest shareholder and the second largest shareholder of Wheelock, as well as its own shares. Together, they have already controlled Wheelock, and other ordinary shareholders seem to be It doesn't matter at all.

The real strength of the imperial group has already completely surpassed the imagination of Li Jiacheng and Zhuang Yueming.

Li Jiacheng knew about it.

What makes Li Jiacheng uncomfortable now is not that the Empire Group has swallowed Wheelock & Co.

It's that he's worried.

Whether his own Changjiang Industrial Group has also been quietly acquired by the Imperial Group, but he doesn't know.

"Sir, what are you worried about?"

"Changjiang Industrial Group."

At this time, Li Jiacheng's shares in Changjiang Industrial Group were only about 30%, and the rest were all circulating shares.

Although he is now the largest shareholder, who knows when the Imperial Group acquired the shares of other Changjiang Industrial Groups?
