As of April 1987, Establishment Future Holdings held a total of 46.45% of Skoll Bank's shares, and could basically control the overall situation at the shareholders' meeting.
However, the Masardino family single-handedly caused the establishment of Future Holding Company to spend nearly 30 million U.S. dollars in unjust money.
The secret investigation ended in mid-May. Based on the investigation results and various assessments of the two investigation agencies, Qiao Hongwei and others formulated several different plans and sent them to the capital for Sun Dahai's decision.
Sun Dahai quickly made the decision to start his family's most important asset, Anloni Leather Company.
Anloni Leather Company is a listed company with a current market capitalization of approximately 200 million pounds (approximately 300 million U.S. dollars. For the convenience of reading, we will use U.S. dollars to describe this in the future).
The Masardino family owns 30% of the shares of Anroni Leather Goods Company, which is the Masardino family's most important asset, accounting for more than 60% of their family's total assets.
Precisely because Anroni Leather Company is a listed company, Sun Dahai can complete his revenge on the Masardino family through transactions in the stock market.
After the target is selected, Qiao Wanting's financial investment department will be responsible for the follow-up work, and others will cooperate with her work when necessary.
In addition to setting up a public account of Future Investment Company, this task will also use some anonymous accounts to operate.
Laursen, one of Qiao Wanting's deputies and one of the first members of the trading team, volunteered and asked to take over the task.
Laursen is a Danish national who came to study at Xiangjiang University. After graduating from graduate school, he was just about to establish the Future Investment Company, so he and his girlfriend Peng Jiayi were recruited into the company by his junior sister Qiao Wanting.
Laurson is lively by nature and likes to pursue excitement. He is like a fish in water in the trading team and enjoys this kind of life. After the Japanese yen project ended last year, the members of the trading team were dispersed to work in various departments of the financial investment department. When will the next time
There has been no notice of concentration yet.
(The trading team should gather in September to deal with the upcoming global stock market crash "Black Monday" in October. It is still early for the gathering, and Sun Dahai did not ask Qiao Wanting to pass on the schedule.)
The nine-to-five work schedule every day made Laursen feel very bored. When Qiao Wanting told a few key people above the supervisor level about the general situation of the task, he immediately volunteered to take over the task.
Laurson is an old man in the company, and there is no problem with his business ability and loyalty. So Qiao Wanting transferred him and his two assistants to the European team, who were responsible for the specific operation of this task.
…
From mid-May to now, the preliminary preparations for the revenge plan have been carried out for more than two months. In the Marco Polo Suite, David's speech has ended, and now it is Qiao Wanting's turn to speak.
"Anloni Leather Company is a listed company on the London Stock Exchange with a total share capital of 50 million shares. The current price is US$6.2 per share and the total market value is US$310 million.
The Masardino family holds 30% of the shares through family funds and is the largest shareholder. At the same time, several major members of the Masardino family also hold a small number of shares in Anloni Leather Company in their personal capacity, accounting for the total share capital.
4.5%.
In addition, there are about 5% to 8% of the shares held by several companies suspected to be related to the Masatino family.
Therefore, we believe that although there are loopholes, the Masardino family's control over Anroni Leather Company is still within a reasonable range. If we attack forcefully, the cost we need to pay will be relatively high.
For more than two months, we have been secretly collecting chips. As of today, our several accounts have purchased about 5.5% of the shares, with an average cost of US$6.3 per share.
In addition, through cross-examination, we gradually increased the daily turnover rate of Anloni Leather Company from about 3% to 4% before to more than 10%, making it a more actively traded stock and setting the stage for subsequent transactions.
Good foreshadowing.”
"How is the overall performance of the London stock market recently?" Sun Dahai asked.
At home, he mainly cares about the U.S. market and Hong Kong stock market, but pays little attention to London and Tokyo. Because except for special reasons, the current basic trend of global stock markets will follow the U.S. market, but the degree is different.
"The London stock market, like the stock markets of most countries, has basically been on an upward path in recent years. Although there have been some adjustments, there have been large increases and small decreases, and the overall trend is upward.
Little boss, do you really think there will be an explosive adjustment in the stock market soon?"
Sun Dahai looked at Qiao Wanting with a strange look, and said angrily: "Have you ever heard of a stock market that only rises but never falls? Most of the leading stocks in major stock markets now have price-to-earning ratios that are too high. If they don't adjust,
Where is the momentum for growth?"
Qiao Wanting stuck out her tongue and stopped talking.
Sun Dahai thought for a while and said: "I think we are almost ready. Tomorrow is Saturday and the London stock market is closed.
You tell Laurson that early tomorrow morning, half an hour before the London stock market closes, use that separate account to increase the amount of money you raise. The target is to be more than 1%. The increase in the closing price should not be too high, and should be controlled to be about twice the increase in the broader market.
Uncle Wu, over the weekend, you arranged for someone to let people know that there is a South American clothing company that wants to go public in London. It also wants to acquire several leather factories in Europe, as well as related import and export channels."
Wu Dawei nodded, indicating that he understood. The steps of the revenge plan have been discussed in advance. Now it is just a matter of following the plan, performing their respective duties, and proceeding step by step.
Qiao Wanting took a pen and wrote down what Sun Dahai said, and then asked: "Are we ready to start? We will increase the volume today and take two days off on the weekend. Will they be prepared next week?"
Sun Dahai said dumbfounded: "Sister, do you think we really want to acquire such a company? Today we have increased the volume and made the announcement just to make them prepare.
Starting next week, we will continue to increase the volume and make acquisition offers to shareholders with larger shareholdings. When this account holds more than 5% of the shares, we will submit a statement to the exchange."
Wu Dawei said: "Dahai, your plan is just to hurt people, but it is quite enjoyable. However, are you sure that there will be a major adjustment in the stock market in the near future? If there is no adjustment, or the adjustment is not sufficient, we will also lose money.
."
"Uncle Wu, I plan to complete this operation before the end of this year. If it goes well, three months will be enough.
As for the stock market adjustment, there will definitely be one, but the magnitude is uncertain. However, even if the stock market does not adjust, we will only lose tens of millions at most, so don’t worry about it.”
"Since you have prepared for the worst, there is nothing to say. I will try my best to cooperate with Xiaowan and the others."
Wu Dawei saw that Sun Dahai had already considered it, so there was no need to say more.
