Seven hundred and twentieth chapters together vertical and horizontal
Although Jing Gao was very upset by Gu Xixi's mother, he made a prompt decision and dealt with it quickly. The storm was eliminated invisible.
As Jing Gao continued to come back to socialize, Pino introduced a group of wealthy people and senior managers of large companies. The atmosphere of the banquet quickly returned to normal.
As for what the scene just now would be like in the end, Jing Gao couldn't stop others from talking about it.
The music of the reception has been changed to Mozart's "The Marriage of Figaro". The tune is light and melodious.
After a round of socializing, about an hour had passed. Little Pino took a tall glass and invited Jing Gao to sit in a luxurious small living room on the first floor. He smiled and said: "Mr. Jing, Arnault
The family has surrendered at your feet. The Lagardère Consortium is also willing to surrender. Are you willing to meet Arthur Lagardère?"
During the social interaction just now, not only Jing Gao was accompanied by his translator Ouyang Wan, but Little Pino was also accompanied by his black confidant, translator David Lewis.
Pinault's entourage blocked the two doors to the small reception area, creating a private meeting space.
Jing Gao sat on the sofa in the small living room, placing the champagne glass in his hand on the coffee table next to him, "Mr. Pinault, I need to correct you."
Following Ouyang Wan's translation, Little Pino was a little surprised, and a little unhappy deep down in his heart. Did Jing Gao really regard himself as the emperor? He suppressed the smile on his face and said, "Say."
Jing Gao said seriously: "It was our joint efforts that defeated Bernard Arnault. The Arnault family not only surrendered at my feet, but also surrendered at the feet of the Pinault family."
Little Pino reacted at this time and couldn't help laughing, "Thank you, Mr. Jing. Thank you for your praise! However, there is no way for the Pino family to obtain the ownership of Hennessy!"
Hennessy is the signature spirit brand of LVMH Group and a world-renowned brandy. However, it will be sold to Jinggao at a price slightly lower than the market price of about 1.5 billion euros. This includes assets such as production area, sales network, personnel, etc. LVMH Group will also
As a result, a sum of cash was obtained to relieve the group's financial pressure.
He knew something about the "secret agreement" between Arnault and Jing Gao. The Arnault family was his enemy, how could he not understand or pay attention to it?
Jing Gao leaned on the comfortable dark blue sofa, crossed his legs, and said with a smile: "The facts are facts after all, and I believe all my friends in Paris can see it. I have some shares of LVMH Group in my hand, no.
I know Mr. Pinault, are you interested in taking over?"
He and the Pinault family teamed up to overthrow Bernard Arnault. But Arnault surrendered, of course he came to him. It's not that Arnault had no shame to surrender to his former enemy, the Pinault family, but in this war, he
It is the main force, the decisive force!
Therefore, all the benefits transferred by Arnault were given to him. After getting rid of him, Arnault would certainly not bother to make deals with the Pinault family again.
However, there is no doubt that the Pinault family must have made a huge profit from yesterday's short selling. It should not be less than 500 million euros. Of course, it cannot be compared with the profit he obtained. The capital market is high
With investment, high risks lead to high returns.
Jing Gao would just give a little compliment, but he wanted to discuss the distribution of profits with the Pinault family, that's not the case. Everyone depends on their abilities. He just wanted to discuss the next cooperation.
Little Pino pondered for a moment, and somewhat understood what Jing Gao meant, and said: "Mr. Jing, how many stocks do you have in hand, and at what price do you plan to sell them?"
Jing Gao crossed his legs, took a sip of champagne, and said: "About 0.5% of the shares will be transferred to you at today's closing price of 189.24 euros. But I have a request. I hope to fully enter the French banking industry."
This is his purpose.
He hopes that similar things will happen next time without the help of Deutsche Bank! In fact, simply speaking, the Bank of East Asia has the banking license. But, can the Bank of East Asia develop into a major bank in the EU?
The answer is no!
This is an obvious truth: the review failed!
He is also a fan of Internet literature. He has read many novels in which the protagonist invests in Google, FaE, Twitter, and even maintains influence. This is impossible!
In the West, the media means the fourth power. It is absolutely not allowed to be controlled by people other than "one's own people". Either it is like Yuri Milner, the famous investor of the Mao family, who invests heavily in venture capital and only wants stocks but no voting rights! Uber
There was investment from Yuri Milner. Igao even drank with him.
Or, you have to be a businessman like Li Huanggua, whose relationship with Ang Sa is unclear. The Li family holds about 10% of Facebook shares.
Similarly, the banking industry is also very tightly controlled in the West. Bank access is liberalized, but it is almost impossible to grow bigger. The four major banks also have business overseas, but they cannot grow big!
Therefore, he needs to rely on the power of the Pinault family. At least on the surface, the newly established bank is dominated by the Pinault family.
Bernard Arnault once ridiculed Arthur Lagardère for not understanding the "real rules of the game". These are the rules of the game in today's free world!
Little Pino is also an old fox who has been up and down in the business world for many years. If you think about it roughly, you will understand what Jing Gao means: a joint venture to establish a new bank, with members of the Pino family standing in front of the stage. He smiled and said: "Mr. Jing, those gangs in the banking industry
People are not easy to deal with. Let me think about it, let me think about it."
France is known as the usury empire. In order to make profits, those bankers dared to legislate to allow the French Ministry of Finance to borrow money from private banks at an interest rate of 4%, thereby indirectly controlling the right to issue currency. As a large company in the fashion industry, the Pinault family may not be able to rush in.
Well done.
However, he was reluctant to give up the profit. He took over the 0.5% LVMH Group stock at the current price of 189.24 euros and held it for a while. When the LVMH Group stock recovered, his net profit would be 300 million euros!
Jing Gao made a gesture, sipped champagne, and waited confidently.
As the contact deepened tonight, with his agility and emotional intelligence, he naturally found that little Pino was a bit greedy and was not afraid that he would not agree.
No matter how deep the water in the French banking industry is, what does it matter? Pinot can completely agree to it first, and then abandon him when the new bank develops and grows to the point where it has to compete with the French banking industry to the death!
However, if this gap is torn open and he can get the "qualified" admission ticket, it will be no longer up to Little Pino!
As for the source of the 0.5% of LVMH shares, Bernard-Arnault's men were not idlers. They privately transferred him 2% of LVMH shares as compensation. There was a prohibition clause in the contract. It was prohibited to sell to the Pinault family in this way to Arnault.
People who are hostile to the Arnault family. At the same time, the Arnault family has the first right to repurchase this part of the shares.
Therefore, his 0.5% share was actually acquired separately on the stock market. It came from the account of Jiuge Capital.
In other words, if Arnault still doesn't give in, he will hold shares in LVMH Group and repeatedly toss this old boy. For such a big thing as Zhaoshi Group, of course he has a backup plan, not just short selling in the stock market.
.
He acquired more than 0.5% of LVMH Group, but he was only willing to give Pinault so much benefit. After selling this 0.5%, Jiuge Capital still holds about 2.5% of LVMH shares.
Including Arnault's 2% private transfer, the shares in his hands have not reached the red line for disclosure.
Little Pino thought for more than ten minutes and then said with a smile: "Mr. Jing, I made you laugh. In principle, I am willing to cooperate with you. However, the Pino family has not been involved in the banking industry. I need to consult my friends and come up with a plan."
We have a reasonable plan and we will discuss it in detail later.”
Jinggao agreed and said: "Okay." Then he turned and asked: "Mr. Pinault, why did you just say that the Lagardère Consortium is willing to surrender?"
It was obvious that Pinault Jr. had benefited from the Lagardère consortium, so he came forward to "make peace". However, with Igao's cooperation just now, he didn't mind selling Arthur Lagardère, and said with a smile: "
Mr. Jing, Arthur Lagardère wants to apologize to you in a public place like tonight, bow his head, and clear up the grievances between each other. His bottom line is to compensate you 60 million euros. That is to help you pay Publicis Groupe's bill.
Pay it off.”
He added: "Arnaud Lagardère is not in good health. He has been bedridden recently and often falls into a coma. His son Arthur Lagardère has accepted the power of the Lagardère Consortium. But he is far inferior to Arnold's level.
.This kid Arthur even offended his family’s long-time family friend Bernard Arnault.”
When Jinggao heard this, he couldn't help but become happy. Is there such a person? They actually think that such a big thing as attacking Zhaoshi Group, which is valued at 40 billion euros, can be revealed so easily?
