Liang Botao hurried to Lin Zuhui's office and placed a newspaper in front of Lin Zuhui.
"The media reported that Chen Jun's family intends to sell crocodile shirts. It seems that we are going to increase our competitors!"
Lin Zuhui calmly picked up the newspaper and read it. His face was calm, as if he was no longer so eager to get the crocodile shirt.
Liang Botao nodded inwardly. This man was already acting like a hero. He knew that Lin Zuhui cared very much about crocodile shirts, otherwise he wouldn't have used all his shares in listed companies as collateral. You're welcome.
If anything happens, Lin Zuhui will lose everything and it will be difficult to get up again.
After a long while, Lin Zuhui put down the newspaper and said, "Who do you think our opponent will be?"
Liang Botao immediately said: "Lin Baixin of Lixin Group, their family has always represented French crocodiles, and Lin Baixin himself has long expressed his love for crocodile shirts."
Lin Zuhui nodded, with a relaxed smile on his face, and teased Liang Botao: "If you, the Chaoshan gang, don't help the Chaoshan people this time, you will have to fight with Lin Baixin!"
Lin Baixin is the boss of the Chaoshan Gang, and Liang Botao is also the capital strategist of the Chaoshan Gang, so Lin Zuhui said this.
Liang Botao responded: "It's not a competition. I suspect that Dr. Chen Jun deliberately released the news that his family was interested in selling, and then attracted two families to come and bid! I didn't expect that Dr. Chen Jun had such a big appetite. We quoted 20 yuan per share.
The premium is just over 20%, but I’m still not satisfied!”
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "It must be the news released by the Chen Jun family! It doesn't matter if we are invited to participate in the bidding. The crocodile shirt is not a non-buy item for me. Of course, it is not that Lin Baixin wants to snatch the crocodile shirt from me.
Easy! To tell you the truth, my highest price is 22 yuan per share!"
Liang Botao was surprised, and then said: "This is a premium of more than 30%, and you still said it was not your non-purchase item. It is basically impossible for the Lin Baixin family to pay this price."
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "I think so too! Regardless of it, it depends on what the Chen Jun family plans to do. Anyway, I will pay this price!"
Chen Jun's family owns 73.5% of Crocodile Tie's shares in the listed company. The founder only needs to sell 25 shares to the public, and the total share capital of Crocodile Tie is 80 million shares. Therefore, based on the calculation of 22 yuan per share, Chen Jun's
The 73.5 shares held by the Jun family require 1.29 billion!
This price was the price paid by the Lin Baixin family in the previous life in September!
Lin Zuhui guessed that at that time, the Chen Jun family saw that the stock market was booming and the stock price of crocodile shirts had risen to 2.2 billion, so they intended to put it on the market and sell it to the Lin Baixin family at a fair price.
Now, Lin Zuhui took the initiative to come to the door, and the Chen Jun family was not stupid. It was impossible to sell it to him at a fair price. They were not satisfied with even a 20% premium, and deliberately spread the news to lure the Lin Baixin family to come to bid.
Of course, it is also possible that the Chen Jun family thinks that crocodile shirts are worth that price. After all, this company is divided into two phases in the Crocodile T shirt building in Central, covering an area of just over 6,000 square feet, and has more than 30 retail boutiques on Hong Kong Island.
points, three factories, and overseas sales network.
Of course, it cannot be an auction-style bidding. Lin Zuhui and Lin Baixin would not be stupid enough to participate. At most, they would use bidding. The two companies would write the highest price into an envelope and then send it to Crocodile Shirt's office. Chen Jun would then win according to the highest bidder.
.
Liang Botao finally said: "No matter what the bidding result is, why don't you talk to various banks about loans first?"
Lin Zuhui nodded and said: "Well, I pledged the original shares of Wanhui Media and have paid off the remaining funds from the loan for futures speculation. Now I plan to use the entire Wanhui Media shareholding to add part of New Era Real Estate.
Hold the shares as collateral and borrow 1.3 billion from various banks. Of course, the transaction must be completed for it to take effect."
Liang Botao reminded: "The Hang Seng Index recently fell to 2,700 points. What do you think of the market outlook? Do you need to close some blue chip stocks?"
Lin Zuhui said confidently: "No need, our buying point is below 1800 points. I am confident that this time it will be adjusted to the delivery of the futures contract at the end of April at most, and it will rise again soon."
Liang Botao nodded. He just wanted to remind Lin Zuhui that the reason why you dared to borrow a lot to buy crocodile shirts is that the blue chip stocks you invested in have made a lot of profits. If the stock market performs poorly, Lin Zuhui's financial situation will be a bit dangerous.
After all, Lin Zuhui mortgaged his real trump cards, Wanhui Media and New Era Real Estate.
Fortunately, Lin Zuhui's buying point is below 1800 points, and the current profit is almost 1.5 billion, so a small adjustment does not matter.
.......
Lin Baixin family.
Lin Baixin also urgently summoned his old retainer Cao Guangyu, his sons Lin Jianyue, Lin Jianmin, etc. to discuss the purchase of crocodile shirts.
Lin Baixin has been eyeing crocodile shirts for a long time, but Chen Jun's family controls a full 73.5 shares. They have no intention of putting it on the market, and no one can take it away.
Crocodile shirt is the first Chinese brand to go global and is the pride of the Chinese nation. Why is Lin Baixin not moved?
"I heard that someone is already in contact with the Chen Jun family. Who do you think it is?"
Lin Jianyue said immediately: "I have inquired clearly. It seems that Liang Botao is in contact with the Chen Jun family. But Liang Botao must be someone else's consultant, and it should be Lin Zuhui behind it!"
Lin Baixin frowned and said unhappily: "Isn't he fighting fiercely with the Kadoorie family? How come he still has the energy and money to come up with the idea of crocodile shirts!"
He was a little afraid of Lin Zuhui. It was not that he was afraid of how rich Lin Zuhui was, but that he was afraid that Lin Zuhui would disrupt the market and make chaotic bids. You must know that when Cathay City purchased the Furama Hotel, it paid a full 80% premium, which shocked the Hong Kong business community.
Lin Jianyue said: "I have played with him. He is the kind of person who likes premium acquisitions and leveraged buyouts. He is not afraid of borrowing money. As long as a bank is willing to lend, he will never have too much."
For a while, Lin Baixin also started thinking about how to make a successful acquisition!
Cao Guangyu, an old retainer, said: "Who revealed that the Chen Jun family intends to sell? If I guessed correctly, it must be Dr. Chen Jun himself. Then, his purpose is to lure you, the boss, to join the bidding. So, we should go to Chen Jun
The family should inquire about the price offered by the other party before making a decision, or wait and see what the Chen Jun family plans to do with the bidding method!"
Lin Baixin nodded and said: "That makes sense! I will come to test the price in person!"
.....
On Wednesday, Lin Zuhui publicly announced through his personal consultant Liang Botao that he was preparing to acquire Crocodile T-shirts.
For a time, Hong Kong and Kowloon were shaken again because of Lin Zuhui.
Before the first quarter of 1987 ended, the young plutocrats were attacking cities and territories everywhere. Their courage and skill were inferior to those of the older generation of plutocrats. For a time, Lin Zuhui's reputation once again resounded throughout Hong Kong, with majesty.
Lin Zuhui took Liang Botao to visit Chen Jun, the owner of crocodile shirts.
Chen Jun is 70 years old this year and is generally called Dr. Chen Jun because he received an honorary doctorate in law from Andrews University in Michigan, USA. This is one of his proudest things.
The reason why Chen Jun is willing to put crocodile shirts on the market is not only because he intends to move capital and immigrate to Australia, but also because his two sons have no intention of selling crocodile shirts.
As soon as they met, Chen Jun said politely: "Heroes indeed come from young. There are few business people in the world who are as successful as you at your age."
Lin Zuhui was stunned. He suddenly thought that he seemed to be very famous overseas, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom. After all, he was too young and he started from scratch. He would not be in trouble in the future, right?
"You're welcome! There are many more successful people than me! I just like taking risks!" Lin Zuhui said with a smile.
Anyone who understands knows that both Lin Zuhui and Lin Zuhui's company are heavily in debt, and there seems to be nothing to praise.
As for Lin Zuhui's personal cash wealth, basically it has not been spread. Even for this acquisition, everyone outside knows that Lin Zuhui mortgaged the stocks of Wanhui Media and New Era Real Estate.
"Haha, I won't comment on your leveraged buyout method. We are old anyway!"
After the two parties sat for a long time, they briefly chatted for a few words and then went straight to the topic.
Lin Zuhui asked: "Dr. Chen Jun, I heard that Lai Sun is also interested in purchasing crocodile shirts?"
The purpose of this visit is to determine how to bid. If the Chen Jun family is greedy and wants to engage in bidding, or if they immediately regret it after winning the bid, then no one will play with you, and the reputation of the Chen Jun family will also be ruined.
Ruined.
Ranwen
"Yes, haven't you already heard the news?" Chen Jun said with a smile.
Looking at the smiling tiger in front of him, Lin Zuhui felt a little angry.
However, he still kept his composure, so he said: "Well. In that case, does Dr. Chen Jun plan to sell? Or how to bid? Please give us an accurate answer. After all, my bank needs to confirm that every day
It will generate a lot of interest.”
Chen Jun pretended to think: "This...Actually, Lin Sheng, you should understand that it was you who came to us to buy, and we had no intention of placing an offer! However, since both of you are sincere, I hope the price is still high.
Whoever gets it gets it. If it's the same price, Lin Sheng gets it because you're the first one to come to buy it."
"How can the highest bidder get it?" Lin Zuhui pressed further.
The longer you delay, the more detrimental it will be to you.
Seeing Lin Zuhui's expression, Chen Jun knew that if he deliberately asked the two companies to raise prices again, one party might withdraw, and the other party might not be willing to pay a high price.
"Let's do this! On March 25, you two will submit your quotation envelopes, and we will determine the high price to obtain the right to purchase. However, I am not very satisfied with your quotation, so the new quotation must be more than 20.5 yuan per share!
"
Lin Zuhui nodded and said directly: "Okay, we will participate on time!"
His mental price was 22 yuan, but in fact he would not quote 22 yuan, and probably quoted 21.5 yuan at most. In other words, his highest bid was 1.26 billion to purchase 73.5 shares of the Chen Jun family.
