Reborn in America, I'm serious about making money.

Did Amy know about Zhang San? Of course she did, and she knew much more about it than many others. However, she kept it a secret and worked as Zhang San's "life" secretary.

Who is Zhang San? He is one of the richest people in the world, owns the most music and film copyrights, is a major shareholder behind many listed companies, and is one of the world's largest providers of online physiological education content.

Its influence is not large, but it is not limited to one region or country; rather, it extends across continents. Although its influence is not particularly large, it is very widespread.

In some listed companies, if the largest shareholder does not control more than 30% of the shares, then what he wants to do may depend on Zhang San's mood. The directors who hold 40% of the shares will not agree to his plan and may even unite to drive him out.

However, Zhang San doesn't usually use these hidden methods. Amy knew a little about it, but she didn't reveal it.

In Zhang San's view, this should be protection, or more likely, love! Of course, there is another possibility that he is unwilling to accept: Amy has been keeping her promise to Zhang San and has been fulfilling the contract she made with him years ago, but over time, she has developed an attachment to Zhang San?

Zhang San went to Frankfurt this time with just him and Amy. As usual, their relationship may have progressed further, but they didn't show much affection in their behavior. It was like an old married couple, and Zhang San was used to Amy's care.

This time, he went to Frankfurt, of course, because he wanted to save Porsche, since Volkswagen wanted to acquire it.

The relationship between Zhang San and Bao Shijie dates back to more than a year ago...

Back then, he signed a contract with Bao Shijie, which was a gambling agreement. If an ordinary person signed a gambling agreement with someone, it would be suicide, but Zhang San was not an ordinary person, and the other party dared not cause trouble.

Zhang San sells the vast majority of his Volkswagen shares to the other party, who will then own 70% of the company. However, this contract has one condition, which Bao Shijie considers a joke.

The condition is that, provided the two parties do not interfere with each other, the settlement price will be half of the highest price of the year.

Zhang San sold a total of 30% of Volkswagen's shares to the other party. The transaction was completed after New Year's Day, and it is an irrevocable transaction.

At this point, Baoshijie can announce to the public that they have effectively acquired 70% of the shares.

This betting agreement is also a variant of a futures contract. As long as both parties agree, there will be no problem.

Zhang San's Volkswagen stock was incredibly cheap, only a third of the future common stock price. For the sake of his family's honor, Bao Shijie would definitely acquire Volkswagen.

After Zhang San arrived, the two sides met quickly, and immediately a team of lawyers reviewed the share transaction contract again.

At this point, there were very few Volkswagen shares left on the secondary market.

Soon after the contract was signed, the Bao Shi Jie family members left with smiles on their faces.

Now, the Bao Shi Jie family has basically acquired Volkswagen. All they need to do is acquire the remaining shares.

On the other hand, Zhang San was also very happy. Although he wouldn't cause any trouble, both parties had signed a secret agreement, so naturally... no one knew about it except for the people present. Everyone present had signed the agreement, and they would not leave before the end of the year; in fact, they would be placed under house arrest.

Shortly after the two parties parted ways, Bao Shijie began a high-profile acquisition of the remaining less than 10% of the shares. The remaining 20.1% was in the hands of the state government. As long as the state government held more than 75% of the shares, the Bao Shijie family would have completed the acquisition according to relevant laws.

At the time of their acquisition, the Volkswagen Act had not yet been repealed, so no one else was aware that someone was acquiring the company. However, eventually, the truth came out, and the news of the acquisition of Volkswagen by Bao Shi Jie was leaked, though not by either party.

However, neither party can participate in matters that alter the stock price, and this must be strictly adhered to.

Later, the price of Volkswagen stock soared all the way up to 240 euros, a price they hadn't expected, but they couldn't say it out loud, suffering in silence.

As we learned later, because the remaining 6% of the shares were also in Zhang San's hands, the other party had no way to complete the acquisition.

But at this critical moment, kind-hearted people came to the rescue, including Germany's richest man, who joined in and began lending out shares to short-sell Baoshijie. However, what they didn't expect was that their short-selling was completely absorbed by others.

Moreover, as the price increased by more than 10%, the stock price was driven down to around 200 euros. All the short sellers realized that they could drive the price down to below 100 euros.

Under these circumstances, the shares they sold were acquired by Baoshijie, giving them a 75% stake. They then announced that they had completed the acquisition of Volkswagen and now hold a 75% stake.

At the same time, the Volkswagen Act was declared invalid, which allowed Procter & Gamble to complete its acquisition of Volkswagen at an opportune time.

The short sellers panicked. They wanted to close their positions, but it was too late. As soon as the announcement was released, the stock price immediately rose.

Bao Shijie hadn't expected that, as he thought announcing the successful acquisition would stop the stock price from rising, Volkswagen's stock price was actually soaring at an astonishing rate...

As we all know, in the end, Bosch settled the accounts of those people for 1,000 euros, and that's how Germany's former richest man went bankrupt.

Now, Zhang San has come back to save Porsche, because the acquisition left Porsche with a huge amount of debt, especially to banks.

More than a year has passed, and because of what happened back then, there are still many lingering problems. There is a loan that I may not be able to repay now, and I may go bankrupt.

Zhang San's main purpose in coming to Frankfurt this time is to provide the other party with a loan so that they can survive and avoid bankruptcy.
