The Most Powerful Tycoon Reborn In Xiangjiang

‘Chu Huan: Never just talk! ’--"True Daily"

As Chu Huan's official newspaper in Xiangjiang, "True News" has always been able to report Chu Huan's news to Xiangjiang people in the first time.

This time is no exception!

Just when "Oriental Daily" and "South China Morning Post" analyzed Chu Huan's declaration of war against Hyundai Group before, it was just talk, which aroused heated discussions among many people in Xiangjiang, "Zhenbao" published the latest news!

Chu Huan: Never just talk!

The content in it shocked the jaws of the entire Xiangjiang people!

Because Chu Huan is now acquiring Ford Motor, a modern automotive technology provider, in North America!

Without the technical support of Ford Motor and the patent support of Ford Motor, whether Hyundai Motor can continue, this will become a huge question mark!

But this is not the most concerned issue of Xiangjiang people.

The question that Xiangjiang people are most concerned about is why Chu Huan bought Ford Motor.

In this report of "True News", the situation of Ford Motor is listed. Only the listed A shares of Ford Motor are worth more than three billion US dollars. In addition, the Ford family also holds 40% of the voting rights of Ford Motor B. share.

No matter how you look at it, it is a takeover battle with no possibility of winning.

Is it another war of words?

Someone thought so.

But the following content tells these people that it is not a war of words at all, because Chu Huan has already acquired Ford Motor A shares worth 1.01 billion US dollars!

Since it's not a war of words!

So the question came back, why did Chu Huan buy Ford?

Just this one question has plunged the whole Xiangjiang into a heated discussion on this matter.

At the same time, there are also newspapers, and the afternoon paper is on sale for the first time!

‘Chu Huan’s net worth has skyrocketed! ’--"Sing Tao Daily"

The "Sing Tao Daily", which holds the pulse of Xiangjiang closely, released its afternoon report today, which specifically introduced the situation of Chu Huan and Ford Motor.

In fact, the content mainly talks about Chu Huan's situation.

But because of the urgency of time, "Sing Tao Daily" wanted to occupy the hot spot of this matter earlier.

So many of the things mentioned are actually the introduction of Chu Huan by Fortune magazine last year.

Compared with last year's "Fortune", there is nothing more than one more Qingzhou Yingni.

So in the "Sing Tao Daily" report, it was stated that although Chu Huan has a net profit of about 6 billion Hong Kong dollars per year, it also said that Chu Huan spent a lot of money, especially the Zhulu Commercial Center, which started construction last year. .

"Even if Chu Huan didn't put this profit into other business projects, it was only a little over a billion dollars, but everyone knows that this is impossible, so now the 1.01 billion dollars that Chu Huan used to acquire Ford Motor Where do dollars come from?"

In the end, the asking of this question plunged the whole Xiangjiang into a huge discussion.

Among them, the most recognized one is that Chu Huan must have borrowed a huge amount in North America.

Only in this way can Chu Huan's plan to acquire Ford be supported!

This is what most businessmen in Xiangjiang care about.

But ordinary Xiangjiang people don't think so far, they only think a little bit now!

That is to lift your breath, cool!

He was so excited that Chu Huan actually wanted to acquire a decades-old car company in North America, and it was also the second largest car company in the United States!

This kind of thing is not good, what kind of thing is good!

So today, since Chu Huan is not in Xiangjiang, his reputation has climbed to the peak again.

Sun Hung Kai Properties!

Guo Desheng, Guo Bingxiang, Guo Bingjiang and his son gathered together again, but their expressions today are completely different from yesterday.

"Can this matter be confirmed?"

Guo Desheng lit the newspaper on the table and asked Guo Bingxiang.

Guo Bingxiang thought of the reprimand from his old bean yesterday, and hurriedly said: "I can be sure, I have already talked to Xu Yi on the phone, and the other party also confirmed this matter, Chu Huan is indeed doing something to Ford in New York now! "

Guo Desheng didn't speak for a long time, and finally couldn't help but said: "Did A Huan go on her honeymoon, or did she go to stir up the wind and rain?"

Guo Bingxiang murmured: "Maybe it's a honeymoon while stirring up the wind and rain?"

Guo Bingjiang on the side said softly: "I am not very optimistic about this matter. Ford Motor is not an enterprise of Hong Kong, and its market value is not more than 6 billion Hong Kong dollars, but more than 6 billion US dollars. There are many A-shares, but it is still not enough for the entire Ford Motor Company, not to mention that the Ford family must have taken precautions when things are so big now."

During the lecture, Guo Bingjiang was silent for a while, and then continued: "To be honest, I can't understand A Huan's operation this time. If he really wants to buy Ford, it should be when he was with Xiangjiang. It’s better to infiltrate slowly first, it’s really not a good way to make such a big fuss now.”

Guo Desheng and Guo Bingxiang, the father and son, looked at each other and didn't say anything to Guo Bingjiang's opinion, because they also had the same thoughts in their hearts.

Although many people understand that Chu Huan's acquisition of Ford Motor stock is very encouraging, but can it be successful?

That's really not many people believe it!

Guo Bingxiang said at this time: "Daddy, I want to go to New York!"

Guo Desheng had no objection to this, and said: "After seeing A Huan, if A Huan has no objections, please tell me the situation there in time!"

Although this matter has nothing to do with Guo Desheng, Guo Desheng still wants to know the progress of this acquisition case that has caused huge waves in Xiangjiang.

Guo Bingxiang nodded and said, "Okay!"

After finishing speaking, Guo Bingxiang didn't talk nonsense, and directly left Guo Desheng's office and went to the airport.

Then Guo Bingxiang met Feng Yongfa, Zheng Jiachun, Zhao Shizeng, Huo Zhenting, Mi Gao Jiali, Tang Yunian and others who had the same idea as him at the airport.

Obviously they thought the same as Guo Bingxiang, and they all wanted to see for themselves how Chu Huan did this.

No nonsense, a few people bought the nearest flight and flew directly to New York! .

North America, New York!

According to the time difference, the time when Guo Bingxiang and others flew to New York was actually the night when Chu Huan announced the purchase of Ford Motor in New York.

Since North America announced that it invited KKR to acquire Ford Motor's stock on its behalf, this matter has also become the biggest news on Wall Street in New York.

But the whole Wall Street is also very skeptical about this, thinking that it is basically impossible for Chu Huan from Xiangjiang to buy Ford Motor.

The reason for such a big fanfare now is to force Ford to submit.

This has also led to the fact that today the entire Wall Street and the New York Stock Exchange are watching this matter.

Some securities companies also released part of Ford Motor's stock, wanting to see if Chu Huan had the strength to continue to accept it.

To their surprise, Chu Huan did!

In just one day, Chu Huan once again purchased 31.89 million A shares of Ford Motor.

Before Chu Huan decided to acquire Ford Motor, the stock price of Ford Motor was $1.58 per share, and at the same time, a total of 2.38 billion Ford Motor A shares were issued.

However, as North American Jiaku announced the acquisition of Ford Motor's stock, Ford Motor's stock price directly rose by 0.15 US dollars to 1.73 US dollars per share.

In other words, the 31.89 million shares of Ford Motor that Chu Huan bought yesterday cost a total of 55.1697 million US dollars!

Such a move made those waiting and watching securities companies feel a little uncertain about Chu Huan's true strength for a while.

It should be said that Chu Huan does not have this ability, but now it seems that Chu Huan has not had this problem, and the acquisition has been a complete mess.

But based on Chu Huan's disclosed net worth, it is very difficult to acquire Ford Motor.

That is to say, under such circumstances, the time came to the next day.

Chu Huan met Jerry Kohlberg and others again.

"Today we will apply to the North American Securities Regulatory Commission for the suspension of Ford's license plate. At that time, it will be our final battle with the Ford family!"

Jerry Kohlberg preaches to Chu Huan.

In North America, listed companies suspend trading. The usual reasons include when the listed company has important information to announce, such as annual reports, interim performance reports, shareholder meetings, and major acquisitions.

At the same time, there are also some unexpected situations that will suspend trading. For example, when the securities regulatory authorities believe that listed companies must clarify and announce issues related to the company’s major impact, trading will be suspended when listed companies are suspected of violating regulations and need to be investigated. When the situation arises, trading will also be suspended.

When the North American stock market triggers a circuit breaker in the primary or secondary market, and the time is between 9:30-15:25 Eastern Time, all stocks in the entire market will be suspended for 15 minutes; after 15:25 Eastern Time, trading will not be suspended; If the trading day is half-day trading, the time cut-off point is 12:25.

During any trading period throughout the day, if the third-level market circuit breaker is triggered, the entire market will stop trading until the next trading day opens. The market-wide trading suspension based on the primary market circuit breaker and the secondary market circuit breaker is only triggered once a day.

The acquisition of Ford Motor by North American Jiaku is obviously in line with the suspension requirements of listed companies in North America.

The suspension of trading is naturally beneficial to Chu Huan. After all, it will prevent the disorderly increase of Ford Motor's stock price in the stock market.

Chu Huan nodded, and said, "Continuing to buy shares of Ford Motor without the North American Securities Regulatory Commission's suspension of Ford Motor's license will create a lot of momentum."

Jerry Kohlberg said: "According to the performance of the stock market yesterday, KKR predicts that there will be at least 100 million individual shares in circulation in the stock market today."

Chu Huan understood what Jerry Kohlberg meant, that 100 million Ford Motor A shares was nearly 200 million US dollars.

"Don't worry about the money, I only want the stock of Ford Motor!"

Seeing that Chu Huan was so determined, Jerry Kohlberg didn't say anything.

Said to continue to increase the stock of Ford Motor now.

After Jerry Kohlberg left, Cao Yunshang spoke to Chu Huan worriedly.

"Brother Huan, isn't the incident this time a bit too much? According to the rules of the US stock market, the funds we have invested now must be held for at least half a year before they can be re-sold. To ensure that we will not lose money on this investment, this batch of stocks needs to be sold in batches to stabilize the current stock price."

The North American Securities Regulatory Commission has strict control over the stock trading of listed companies, one of which is that when a shareholder holds more than 10% of the stock, the shareholder becomes an "insider".

The stock resale restriction is customized based on this point. When a shareholder holds 10% or more of the stock, the shareholder has restrictions on reselling the stock and is not allowed to conduct short-term transactions.

According to Section 16 of the North American Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the directors, executives and shareholders who beneficially hold more than 10% of the stock of the target company are all insiders of the target company, and short-swing transactions are prohibited-that is, when buying If you sell the stock within 6 months of purchasing the stock, and then buy the stock within 6 months after selling the stock, all the profits obtained by the insider in the short-term transaction must be returned to the target company.

At the same time, at the time of the sale, there are also express regulations: (1) Within 12 months before the resale, the target company has submitted all reports to the North American Securities Regulatory Commission to disclose company information.

(2) The sale of shares by shareholders is a transaction through a normal intermediary.

(3) The amount of shares sold by shareholders within any three months shall not be higher than the higher of the following two: 1% of such shares; calculated based on the transaction data reported by shareholders in the last four weeks, the weekly average transaction of shareholders for such stocks quantity.

(4) If the number of shares sold in this sale exceeds 5,000 shares or the total price of the shares is greater than $50,000, shareholders need to submit a Rule 144 notice to the SEC.

Cao Yunshang knew that Chu Huan didn't really want to take control of Ford Motor, at least at this stage, Chu Huan didn't have this idea.

So now that Chu Huan has invested more than one billion US dollars, and even when it will increase to two or three billion US dollars in the future, keeping this money in Chu Huan's hands is two different concepts from holding shares in Ford Motor.

Chu Huan patted Cao Yunshang's hand and said with a smile: "This account is not calculated in this way. From a normal point of view, it is really inappropriate for us to do this, and we may even lose some funds in the future, but If our problems with the Hyundai Group this time are left alone.

First of all, we will completely lose the market of South Korea. In the next 20 to 30 years, the development of South Korea will be absolutely rapid. If we lose the market of South Korea, the loss to the Jiaku Department will be more than ten times that of the current one. Do you know how much money South Korea has cost the company during this period of time alone?

More than 30 million Hong Kong dollars, if the timeline is prolonged, the loss will be even greater.

We cannot accept such a loss!

In addition, through this matter, we must deter some companies in Asia and even North America. Jiaku is not something they can bully if they want to.

If we face the suppression of the Hyundai Group this time, and we seem powerless, then in the future, other countries and other groups will use the same methods as the Hyundai Group to restrict the development of our Jiaku system.

The loss at that time will be astronomical, which is absolutely unacceptable to us.

Finally, although it is impossible to acquire Ford Motors, we can use this opportunity to arrange our people into Ford Motors to learn from their management, operation, and production in all aspects. This does not require tuition fees On-site learning is also a very beneficial thing for us to enter the automotive industry in the future. "

To put it simply, Chu Huan wants to use this acquisition of Ford Motors to prove to the world one thing, that is, the Jiaku Department is not afraid of any regional group company in the world to deal with outsiders in the business field.

Use this acquisition to deter all groups or regional countries that have seen this behavior of Hyundai Group and have other ideas.

What's more, outsiders don't know that Chu Huan will definitely get involved in the automotive field in the future, so Chu Huan must start to train his professional talents from now on. Only in this way can Chu Huan deploy the automotive field in advance.

After receiving Chu Huan's explanation, Cao Yunshang finally understood Chu Huan's thoughts thoroughly.

But it was precisely after understanding Chu Huan's thoughts that Cao Yunshang understood that Chu Huan must win this battle.

Only by winning can Chu Huan achieve what he wants.

"There is no news from Ford II, what does the other party think?"

The most important thing about the acquisition of Ford Motor stock this time is the reaction of the Ford family. After all, they are the timing controllers of Ford Motor.

"The other party must be taking action now, and it should be the shareholders of Ford Motor who are connecting with each other."

Chu Huan analyzed.

After hearing Chu Huan's analysis, Cao Yunshang spoke worriedly.

"This will be very difficult. If the Ford family is allowed to connect a small number of shareholders, they will have an absolute right to speak. No matter how many A shares we buy, we will have no way to form control over Ford Motor. of!"

Chu Huan has a different view on this, and said with a smile: "The setting of AB shares has guaranteed the Ford family's control over Ford Motor, but at the same time it has restricted the development of Ford Motor. Only in the case of mergers and acquisitions will the stock price rise. On weekdays, Ford Motor's stock price has risen extremely slowly.

In particular, the major shareholders of Ford Motor have long hated the Ford family's AB shares. It is not so easy for the Ford family to join forces.

The most important thing is that in North America, there is no such thing as loyalty at all. As long as the interests are sufficient, their investors can betray anyone, and this is the best situation for us! "

While Chu Huan and Cao Yunshang were discussing this matter, Zheng Shiyong and Zheng Mengxian, two uncles and nephews of the Dearborn Hilton Hotel in Michigan, were also discussing this matter.

Last night, the two uncles and nephews met Ford II, the president of Ford Motor.

However, the meeting between the two uncles and nephews yesterday was not very beautiful.

Although they brought a meeting gift of 50 million US dollars, Ford II still didn't give them two good looks.

The reason is naturally very simple.

There was a conflict between your Hyundai Group and Chu Huan, and in the end, we Ford Motors was in front to protect you from the wind and rain. No one would be happy about this kind of thing.

Under such circumstances, Ford II's speech was naturally a bit harsh, and Zheng Shiyong's mission to North America naturally had no chance of success.

Before Zheng Shiyong came to North America, the matter of Chu Huan's acquisition of Ford Motor shares had not yet been revealed. Zheng Shiyong came to North America with two most important tasks.

The first one is to let Hyundai's technicians come to learn.

The second one, let Ford Motor agree that Hyundai Motor will learn from Japan's Mitsubishi Motors!

These two tasks can be said to be the two most important links in the future development of Hyundai Motor.

As a result, everything came to a standstill because of Chu Huan's appearance!

Chu Huan said that during this period of time, due to the Hyundai Group's ban on the business of the Jiaku Department in South Korea, the Jiaku Department lost more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars.

But if Ford Motor finally disagrees with these two strategic development plans of Hyundai Motor, it is likely to cause the collapse of the entire Hyundai Motor.

After all, the current Hyundai is still a faltering child, unable to withstand the storm.

"Second Uncle, this matter must not be allowed to develop like this, otherwise, the loss will not only be Hyundai Motor, but the entire Hyundai Group!"

Zheng Mengxian was preaching to Zheng Shiyong with a worried expression at this time.

How could Zheng Shiyong not understand this truth.

Hyundai Construction, Hyundai Motor, Hyundai Heavy Industries, the trinity formed the Hyundai Group Triangular Stool. As long as one corner is broken, the whole stool will be unstable.

It is true that due to the particularity of South Korea, it is difficult for outside companies to enter South Korea from the outside, but this does not mean that there are no problems in South Korea's own business environment.

The internal development of South Korea is also due to the existence of several major chaebols, and the competition is fierce.

Now everyone can work together to maintain the status of the chaebols in South Korea and not be attacked by foreign-funded enterprises, but internally, they can merge and acquire each other.

If there is a problem with the Hyundai Group, then the other major chaebols in South Korea will definitely attack like bloodthirsty hungry wolves and carve up the Hyundai Group.

"Don't worry, although Ford II's attitude last night was not very good, but he also understands that the cooperation with our Hyundai Group is the key to Ford's opening up the Asian market, and it is also one of their most important investments in Asia.

So his attitude is only temporary, not for a long time, as long as the blocking of Chu Huan is completed, they will agree to our company's request at that time! "

Zheng Shiyong comforted Zheng Mengxian.

Zheng Mengxian said worriedly: "Just looking at Chu Huan's behavior in the past two days, I'm afraid he is going to be serious? What if he really wants to buy Ford?"

Zheng Shiyong said firmly: "It's impossible, Chu Huan doesn't have such a big appetite, and he can't eat Ford cars. In that case, the debts he bears will completely overwhelm his entire business empire. Without our hands, his enemies in Xiangjiang will attack him and tear him to pieces!"

"Can't Chu Huan see these?"

After Zheng Mengxian listened to Zheng Shiyong's analysis, he became even more confused. According to Zheng Shiyong's analysis, Chu Huan was facing a doomed situation.

So why did Chu Huan still do this?

"I think Chu Huan can see it!" Zheng Shiyong said: "But Chu Huan has to do it, because if he doesn't do it, he will lose more!"

Zheng Mengxian was still confused, so he could only continue to ask: "Isn't it more appropriate to bow to our Hyundai Group?"

Bowing down to the Hyundai Group is nothing more than a loss of face, but now that the steel is so hard, the result is likely to cause a huge crisis to the entire Jiaku business empire.

Zheng Shiyong laughed softly: "Let me ask you, if Chu Huan chooses to bow to your father, what will your father do?"

Zheng Mongxian began to think about his father's character, and after thinking for a while, Zheng Mongxian said: "Father will definitely share part of the profits of Jiaku Department in South Korea!"

Zheng Shiyong nodded, and said: "Chu Huan's Jiaku department has four major industries, clothing, media, real estate, comics and their surroundings. Among them, black and white media and Zhulu real estate are all based in Xiangjiang. I won't talk about this. Clothing and The market for comics and its peripherals is in the global market outside Xiangjiang, especially the comics and their peripherals that have the largest proportion and the highest profit.

Almost provided Chu Huan with more than 80% of the profits.

If Chu Huan in South Korea succumbs to us and contributes part of the profits, then the groups and companies in other places will follow suit. What will you ask Chu Huan to do then?

If you let it go this time, there will be countless times in the future, so Chu Huan must try to resist. Only by resisting can it be possible to avoid such a situation from happening.

According to the analysis of Chu Huan's personality in business, he can't accept that his business allows other people to have the right to speak. Character determines fate. This is the fundamental reason why he is doing this now! "

Up to now, among the people in the world who know about Chu Huan, most of them know about Chu Huan from the "Fortune" report on Chu Huan's wealth.

That's why Zheng Shiyong said at this time that Chu Huan's main businesses are clothing, media, real estate, comics and their surroundings.

As for the newly established Wolf Smoke Game, they didn't notice it.

They don't even know about Kyushu Electronics, which generates greater profits, and Yunhai Chain, which is developing steadily.

This is actually Chu Huan's greatest reliance!

Know thyself, ever-victorious!

Chu Huan's enemies didn't even know Chu Huan's real situation, and they wanted to defeat Chu Huan, which was basically a dream.

After listening to Zheng Shiyong's analysis, Zheng Mengxian breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "So, now we only need to look at Ford II's merger with Ford Motor's shareholders over there, and then use Ford's stock Is it enough to lock up Chu Huan's cash?"

Zheng Shiyong smiled and nodded, "That's right!"

But then, Zheng Shiyong said regretfully: "Unfortunately, our business has not penetrated into Xiangjiang. If our business can penetrate into Xiangjiang in advance, maybe we can covet Chu Huan's business in Xiangjiang."

If Hyundai Group entered the Xiangjiang market ahead of schedule, Chu Huan might not have to take the risk of buying shares in Ford Motor at this time!

After Zheng Shiyong finished listening, he thought silently.

But no matter what, in the opinion of the nephew and uncle, Chu Huan has already walked on the edge of the abyss!

.

As for Chu Huan, Guo Bingxiang and others were welcomed in the villa in New York tonight.
