502, the four major consortiums in Hong Kong(1/3)

On the plane from Los Angeles to Hong Kong.

Chu Huan was sitting on the sofa in the first-class cabin, holding a copy of today's "Los Angeles Times" in his hand, and what Chu Huan was reading was the front page headline of the "Los Angeles Times".

‘The acquisition that changed the landscape of Hollywood!’--Los Angeles Times.

When Chu Huan got on the plane flying back to Xiangjiang from Los Angeles, it actually represented the completion of Apex Pictures' acquisition of Disney.

Under the U.S. dollar's offensive, Disney's shareholders quickly fell, and what caused this chain reaction was the reason why Edward Disney sold his Disney shares.

In less than three days, Apex Pictures became Disney's largest shareholder.

The next step is for Apex Pictures to acquire the remaining shares and complete the delisting and privatization process. Chu Huan no longer needs to participate.

"Boss, that's a little strange!" Wu Shuhan, who was sitting next to Chu Huan, was holding today's Los Angeles Times in his hand. After reading the above content, he looked a little confused.

Chu Huan turned to look at Wu Shuhan and said, "Are you trying to say why there was no response from Ronald Miller?"

Wu Shuhan nodded and said, "Yes, this process went too smoothly. Ronald Miller made Apex Pictures become Disney's largest shareholder without any resistance. This is contrary to common sense!"

Chu Huan didn't know about the discussion between Ronald Miller and Wayne Durant. At this time, Chu Huan just analyzed it based on the current situation.

"It's not that he doesn't want to take action, but the time doesn't allow it. From the time it was revealed that Apex Pictures acquired Disney, to the time Apex Pictures became Disney's largest shareholder, the time in between was too short. The short-term Ronald Miller didn't have any

time to react.

And I believe this person must have an idea, but the situation has changed so quickly that the counterattack plans he had thought of before no longer work.

If I were him, when I first learned about this matter, I might write some articles on the relationship between Apex Pictures and Alde Commercial Bank, for example, Alde Commercial Bank loaned money to Apex Pictures to complete this loss.

Acquisition"

The acquisition of Disney stock at a premium of 20% of Disney's stock price is not a successful acquisition in the eyes of most North American financial professionals.

Especially now that Disney's situation is not good. As for Disney's future development, whether it can match this premium, and even if it can, how long it will take, are all matters for them to discuss.

But no matter what, what is certain is that many people think that the premium of 20 is a price that is higher than the investment scope.

Therefore, this acquisition is not perfect. If this is the case, some people will naturally criticize Alder Commercial Bank, which provides funds for Apex Pictures.

But again, things developed so fast that the card in Ronald Miller's hand was already ineffective before he had time to play it out.

Apex Pictures, which has become a major shareholder of Disney, no longer cares whether their investment makes money or loses money.

After all, the money has already been spent!

At this stage, what Ronald Miller needs to consider is no longer how to fight back against Vertex Pictures and Chu Huan. What he needs to consider is how to ensure that his rights and interests will not be harmed in the coming events.

Maybe in the future, after the Disney matter is really settled, he will still use this matter as a means to attack Chu Huan, but this is definitely something he will do on the premise of ensuring his own interests.

.

Even at this time, Ronald Miller wanted to send Chu Huan directly to hell.

"But we didn't use the deposits of Alder Commercial Bank!" Wu Shuhan said seriously after listening to Chu Huan's description.

Chu Huan smiled and said, "Yes, so if Ronald Miller really wants to use this method to deal with us in the future, then he will only die a worse death."

Thinking of that possibility, Wu Shuhan couldn't help but smile and said, "I think no matter how miserable Ronald Miller is, he shouldn't be as miserable as Wayne Durant. He just found a high-level job at Disney.

I haven’t even worked for a month and I’ve already lost my job.”

Regarding the ending of Wayne Durant, Chu Huan didn't even pay attention to it. Wayne Durant was just an insignificant person to Chu Huan.

But Kelly doesn’t think so. Since this person was kicked out by her man at Alder Commercial Bank before, isn’t it natural for her to kick this person out at Disney now?

So after becoming the chairman of Disney's board of directors and officially taking over Disney, the first thing Kelly did was to drive Wayne Durant out of Disney.

Wayne Durant lost his job twice in a month, and because of his experience at Disney, he was destined to never make a living in Los Angeles again.

Regarding this matter, Ronald Miller resolutely protested, but it was in vain. He could not even keep his own shares, so it was impossible for him to keep Durant.

"Okay, things in North America have come to an end. Let's take a good rest. There is still a big show waiting for us to enjoy over there in Xiangjiang!"

Chu Huan lowered his sofa, lay on it, put on his eye mask, and prepared to have a good sleep.

Wu Shuhan looked at Chu Huan lying not far away from him, and his heart was still not calm. The longer he stayed with Chu Huan, the more he discovered Chu Huan's mystery.

I believe no one in Xiangjiang could have imagined that during Chu Huan's time in North America, he not only acquired a commercial bank, but also acquired Disney, one of the eight major studios in Hollywood.

The plane arrived in Xiangjiang the next day.

After returning to Xiangjiang, Chu Huan went directly back to his villa at No. 12 Mount Galley Road, preparing to have a good sleep and attend Qi Dezun's cocktail party in the evening.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Cao Yunshang is still in Europe. When Chu Huan returns to the Chu family manor, he is naturally the only one. Originally, Chu Huan had promised Kelly to take Kelly to Europe.

I met Cao Yunshang in person, but because things at Disney took some time to wrap up, and Chu Huan didn’t like staying in North America very much, I decided to wait until the Chinese New Year to see her again!

Although Chu Huan's acquisition of Alder Commercial Bank in North America caused a huge sensation on Wall Street and in North America, in fact, because all the attention in Xiangjiang at this time was on Wheelock's acquisition of Eucalyptus, there was nothing in Xiangjiang.

People know what happened to Chu Huan in North America.

So when Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu, who were wearing evening gowns, arrived at Qi Dezun's villa on Peak Road, not many people showed surprised expressions.

Miao Kexiu, who was following Chu Huan, showed some nervous expressions. This was the first time for her to follow Chu Huan and participate in such a business event.

"Don't be nervous, just pretend that you are filming!"

Chu Huan felt the nervousness of Miao Kexiu next to him, and gently patted Miao Kexiu, who put his hand on his shoulder and said with a smile.

"Yes!" Miao Kexiu nodded heavily. In fact, despite being nervous, Miao Kexiu was still very happy in her heart.

When participating in such an event with Chu Huan, Cao Yunshang would usually be with him, but today he was with Chu Huan, which meant that Chu Huan was officially introducing his identity to the Xiangjiang business community.

The two of them walked into the living room that had been decorated as a ball hall. The people here, like Chu Huan and Miao Kexiu, all wore suits and evening gowns!

"Hello, Director Chu, I am Zheng Zhizhi of Jiehe Group, and I would like to ask Director Chu for your advice!"

As soon as I walked into the living room, someone came up to say hello.

"It turns out to be Zheng Weng. I've admired his name for a long time. It's a pleasure to meet you. It's a pleasure to meet you!" Chu Huan said with a smile.

Speaking of the Zheng family in Xiangjiang, the Zheng Yutong family in the New World is naturally the most famous.

But in fact, there is another Zheng family in Xiangjiang, and the Zheng Zhizhi in front of him is the contemporary head of another Zheng family in Xiangjiang.

The Jiehe Group owned by the Zheng Zhizhi family can be regarded as one of the oldest manufacturing pioneers in Hong Kong. As early as the 1920s, the Zheng family had established the family-style workshop Jiehe in their hometown of Chaozhou!

However, like many businessmen who came to Xiangjiang, the war broke out and the Zheng family left Chaozhou and came to Xiangjiang to continue to establish their own Jiehe.

In the early days of the establishment of the factory in Xiangjiang, the Zheng family mainly dealt in metal products, including helmets, tableware, gas masks, shovels, etc. supplied to the military.

Later, Jiehe ceased production during the Japanese occupation. In 1947, four brothers Zheng Zhizhi, Zheng Yaoze, Zheng Zhiyi and Zheng Zhirong jointly founded Jiehe Manufacturing Factory Co., Ltd.. In the early days, its main business was to organize ports, docks and eliminate major waterways for the Hong Kong government, including demolition.

Ships, etc., and then rolled the scrap steel obtained from ship dismantling to make steel that was urgently needed by the construction industry in Hong Kong at that time.

Later, Jiehe opened a branch factory to produce copper sheets, lead sheets, as well as flashlights, alarm clocks, etc. By the end of the 1950s, it had become a huge enterprise group.

In the 1960s and 1970s, the Chit Wo Group cooperated with Japanese and Australian manufacturers respectively to purchase land and set up factories in Tseung Kwan O and Tsing Yi Island, Kowloon, to produce copper alloy sheets for high-end tableware and utensils, and to manufacture container boxes from aluminum alloys.

At that time, the economy of Hong Kong and the Far East took off, the living standards of ordinary people improved, and the demand for high-end tableware increased significantly.

In the late 1960s, Xiangjiang Shipping entered the era of containerization. Major shipping companies had an urgent need for containers, and Jiehe's business was booming.

In the course of its operation, Jie Wo purchased a large amount of land in Kwun Tong, Tseung Kwan O and Tsing Yi Island. With the booming development of real estate and stock markets, in July 1973, the Zheng brothers formed Jie Wo's properties into Jie Lian Enterprise Branch.

It was delisted and its business expanded to real estate.

By the end of the 1980s, more than ten years later, the group run by Zheng had become a large-scale enterprise group, with its subsidiaries including Jiehe Property, Jiehe Industrial, Jiezhong Paper, Jiehe Kobelco, and Jiehe Group.

Meiya Kitchenware, Thai Steel Factory, etc., whose businesses include real estate, paper, enamel, metal, computers, watches, steel, lead sheets, finance, insurance, etc., together with overseas companies, employ more than 10,000 people.

Zheng Zhizhi said in a simple and profound way, "This time Wheelock acquired Dong Chu and regretted his early exit. It is really a big loss for our Chinese businessmen!"

Chu Huan smiled nonchalantly and said, "There is nothing to lose. You will always find opportunities."

Zheng Zhizhi nodded and said, "That's natural. I believe that Director Chu will have better opportunities in the future!"

"What chance?"

While Chu Huan and Zheng Zhizhi were chatting, a hearty laugh came and Michael Kadoorie walked over.

"Since Director Chu's friends are here, I'll take my leave first. I hope I can have more contact with Director Chu in the future!" Zheng Zhizhi said with a smile.

"That's natural. The Chinese Bank welcomes Zheng Weng as a guest at any time!"

After Zheng Zhizhi left, Michael Kadoorie first smiled and said hello to Miao Kexiu, and then curiously asked Chu Huan, "Ah Huan, where have you been during this time? You didn't have such a lively drama in Xiangjiang?"

In terms of participation, it’s really a pity!”

Chu Huan smiled and said, "I have no regrets. I read all the newspapers from the past few days before coming here. I still know what happened."

"How could I forget that it was you who sold Zhang Yuliang's shares in Wheelock to Hehe International?" At this point, Michael Kadoorie suddenly lowered his voice and told Chu Huan, "It was you who sold Zhang Yuliang's shares in Wheelock."

The people who have the least understanding of this matter are ordinary Xiangjiang citizens. They don’t even know how Hehe International suddenly owned so many shares of Wheelock. They just know that in this battle about Wheelock’s acquisition,

, in the end it was Hehe International that won.

Further down, there are some well-informed people in the business community. They know that the reason why Hehe International was able to successfully acquire Wheelock was because it obtained Zhang Yuliang’s shares in Wheelock, but they don’t know why Zhang Yuliang would acquire Wheelock.

Defeng's shares were sold to Hehe International.

Sold to Hehe International.
