Legend of Xiangjiang Tycoon

Chapter 525: go to war

Liliana Bettencourt is not a fool, otherwise she would not have been the boss of L'Oreal for such a long time.

In fact, Liliana Betancourt understood the meaning of it as soon as François finished talking about the Louis Vuitton Group.

Very simple, Liliana Betancourt can unite with the French government to deal with Nestlé. After all, the French government does not want L'Oreal to fall into the hands of companies from other countries.

But for the Louis Vuitton Group and French companies, it is a normal acquisition. What the French government can do is to stand aside and not intervene.

For the French government, it doesn't matter whether Liliana Bettencourt or the Louis Vuitton Group succeeds, the most important thing is that L'Oreal will not fall into the hands of other countries.

As a French Peugeot company, the French government wants to prevent other multinational companies from acquiring these companies, but the French government may be happy with the internal struggle.

After all, this is an era when multinational companies are rampant. If a company is not strong, how can it win in an increasingly compact economy?

And the close combination of L'Oreal and Louis Vuitton Group can strengthen the strength of both parties, making them feel like a duck to water in international competition.

Even though the Louis Vuitton Group has changed its owner now, for the French government, as long as the Louis Vuitton Group does not move out of France and pay taxes to the government every year, it is enough.

So the French government at this time is no longer Liliana Bettencourt's arm, it can even be said to be a hindrance.

After all, in order not to be nationalized, L'Oreal introduced foreign capital. No one will forget this history.

"What if I let Andre go to the event?" Liliana Betancourt said.

Francois shook his head and said, "Boss, we have to plan for the worst. Even if Mr. Andre goes to the event, at most he will not want to help. As for the deep level, with all due respect, it is impossible. "

"What can I do, **** Louis Vuitton, **** Nestle!" Liliana Bettencourt cursed angrily.

In Liliana Bettencourt's view, if there is no Louis Vuitton, there is no possibility of losing L'Oreal, even if Nestlé is eyeing it, it has been constantly talking about buying L'Oreal.

Even so, Liliana Bettencourt could still laugh it off.

But at that time, the French government favored itself, but now that Nestlé has such great courage to sell its shares, is it because its attitude is too tough? Liliana Bettencourt fell into disbelief.

When François saw Liliana Bettencourt's expression, he knew it was a big deal.

So Francois hurriedly shouted, "Boss, we still have a chance."

"You said, Uncle Francois!" Liliana Bettencourt asked hurriedly to clear up her mood.

"First of all, Mr. Andre needs to come forward. Even if the government does not help us, it cannot be our opponent." Francois said.

"Yes, I understand!" Liliana Bettencourt said.

"The second is that the Louis Vuitton group took over the shares of L'Oreal in Nestlé, which is only 23%, and we have 29%, which means that if the Louis Vuitton group wants to hit a hit, it may have already started to do it before. , may have acquired a small stake in L'Oreal on the stock exchange."

"After all, they know that you are the owner of Nestlé, and Nestlé will never hide from you the sale of L'Oreal's shares. In this case, I think we must act as soon as possible to mobilize the company's funds to buy back L'Oreal's shares, even if the price is high. We have to do it too!" Francois said.

"I understand that the company's funds are at your disposal. In a word, the idea of ​​​​the Louis Vuitton Group is strangled in the cradle." Liliana Betancourt said.

"The third is that you need your boss to meet the small shareholders of L'Oreal. Even if you can't persuade them to sell their shares, you must ensure that they will support us in the future. In the worst case, you must keep them neutral and not support Louis Vuitton. Group, this is your strength, boss, I believe you can do it well!" Francois said.

Liliana Bettencourt handed L'Oreal to a professional team of professional managers, but she did not do nothing by herself.

Liliana Bettencourt's daily job is to communicate, communicate with all kinds of upper-class people, and walk among the upper-class, and at this time, Liliana Bettencourt needs to harvest.

"Of course, it's not too late, let's split up!" Liliana Bettencourt said.

"Yes, boss!" Francois left the villa after finishing speaking.

......

Also in Switzerland, Li Zhiwen and Holland Kramer arranged for Nelson Tabia to negotiate with various minority shareholders after receiving the verbal promise from Hammaucher before, and Nelson Tabia lived up to expectations. Four minority shareholders acquired 2.8% of L'Oreal shares.

At the same time, Mars Capital is not idle, and continues to absorb L'Oreal shares in the stock market.

And Francois was discovered by the people of Mars Capital as soon as he entered the venue.

"President, someone in the market is buying L'Oreal's shares, and the price is not low, what should we do?"

"Intensify the acquisition. All in all, you can't let the other party take advantage. No matter how much money, I agree!" Holland Kramer arranged.

"Yes, President!" The staff member hung up the phone.

Holland Kramer understands that now is the time to fight for the bayonet, so he can't care about other things, he must bite the bullet.

And Holland Kramer put down his eldest brother, turned around and returned to Hammaucher's office, and said directly: "President Hammer, Liliana Bettencourt already knows about today's board of directors. , so our transfer contract can be signed as soon as possible? I don't think you want to let Liliana Bettencourt win!"

"Of course, I hate this person very much. Of course, I hope that you will win. I have already asked the legal department to draw up the contract. It shouldn't be a problem in the afternoon!" Hammaucher said.

"Thank you, Mr. Hanmu!" Li Zhiwen said.

"This is what we should do, isn't it our cooperation? I also hope that the Louis Vuitton group can be successful, but I also hope that Mr. Karl will not play with us like Liliana Betancourt." Hammaucher said.

"Of course, Mr. Hammer, in fact, I'm only interested in investment, and Louis Vuitton will definitely go public. I also hope to reach a strategic cooperation with Nestlé. After all, we are a family!" Li Zhiwen said with a smile.

"Of course, we are a family!" said Hammaucher.

In fact, Hammaucher doesn't believe a word of Li Zhiwen's words, but what can be done? If L'Oreal can be controlled by Nestlé, Hammaucher will never sell its shares.

But Hammaucher knew that it was impossible. Neither Liliana Bettencourt nor the French government would agree. It is a long-term process to hold L'Oreal, ten years, twenty years, thirty years or even fifty years.

Nestlé did not have that long of patience. Since the Louis Vuitton Group has come up with what Hammaucher wants, what does it matter to hand over the shares to the Louis Vuitton Group.

What's more, the owner of the Louis Vuitton Group is a yellow-skinned person, which makes Hammaucher feel that the Louis Vuitton Group has an opportunity.

Although the racism in Europe today is not so serious, it still exists after all.

And soon the legal department sent over the share transfer contract. With the confirmation of Li Zhiwen's lawyer, the two parties signed their respective names, which also means that 23% of L'Oreal's shares will be owned by Louis Vuitton from now on.

"Mr. Hammer, it's a pleasure to cooperate!" said Holland Kramer.

"Happy cooperation!" said Hammaucher.

"Mr. Han Mu, let's leave first!" Li Zhiwen said.

"Mr. Holland, Mr. Carl, why don't we have a meal together before we go!" Hammaucher asked tentatively.

"No, we still need to rush back as soon as possible to fight with Liliana Bettencourt, next time, next time definitely!" Li Zhiwen said.

"Okay, then I wish you all the best of luck!" Hammaucher said.

"Lend your auspicious words!" Li Zhiwen said.

After all, Li Zhiwen and Holland Kramer left Nestlé.

......

Headquarters of the Louis Vuitton Group

Li Zhiwen rushed back here on the same day. After all, time was tight, and it was not too late to rest after winning L'Oreal.

"Jenny, invite President Nelson to the office!" Li Zhiwen said.

"Yes, boss!" Jenny replied.

And soon Nelson Tabia appeared in Li Zhiwen's office.

"Nelson, to make a long story short, this is the transfer contract from Nestlé, 23% of the shares are transferred to the Louis Vuitton group, plus the 9.7% that we previously held, plus the 2.8% you acquired shares, which means we currently hold 35.5% of the shares.”

"You made it public immediately, presumably now we are L'Oreal's largest shareholder!" Li Zhiwen said.

"Boss, don't wait any longer, I'm now working with a few minority shareholders of L'Oreal, and I have a chance to win in two days, so the odds are better!" Nelson Tabia said.

"No, now L'Oreal already knows that we have troubled the shares held by Nestlé. They must be contacting those shareholders urgently at this time and want to buy their shares."

"For this time, the longer the time, the better for them. After all, Liliana Bettencourt has controlled L'Oreal for many years."

"So we must start as soon as possible, and hold a shareholders' meeting within a day or two after the announcement, so that they don't have time to clear it, that's the way we should go." Li Zhiwen said.

"Yes, boss, I'll arrange it now!" Nelson Tabia said.

"Other shareholders who want to sell their shares can negotiate the price at will, but they must get it before the shareholders' meeting!" Li Zhiwen said.

"I understand!" Nelson Tabbia said.

The Louis Vuitton Group announced that it held 35.5% of L'Oreal's shares, and it was thrown into the Paris stock exchange like a depth bomb, leaving countless shareholders overwhelmed and unable to understand what happened.

Of course, investors were stunned, the stock market would not be stunned, because the actions of Louis Vuitton Group also showed that this time is bound to win, so L'Oreal's share price rose steadily.

And even though Liliana Betancourt knew about the Louis Vuitton Group, she was still shocked by the decisiveness of the Louis Vuitton Group.

According to Liliana Betancourt's idea, should Louis Vuitton Group acquire more shares of L'Oreal before making a move, and now it has only been less than a day since it was announced that Nestlé sold its shares.

The French government was equally ignorant. They did not expect that the roots buried ten years ago would be solved like this, and an emergency meeting was also held at this time.

......

On March 24, in the conference room of L'Oréal headquarters in Paris, the shareholders' meeting was convened today.

According to the announcement of the Louis Vuitton Group, only two days have passed.

In two days, Liliana Betancourt increased L'Oreal's stake to 31%, while the Louis Vuitton Group increased L'Oreal's stake to 36.5%.

It can also be seen from this that Liliana Bettencourt has a profound background in L'Oreal. After all, it can increase its holdings by 2% in two days, while the Louis Vuitton Group only increased its holdings by 1%.

The meeting was chaired by Liliana Bettencourt, and she had to come forward, or she might lose control of L'Oreal at any time.

"Good morning, shareholders, I am calling you here today because the group shares have changed, and a strong ally has joined us. Everyone welcomes the Louis Vuitton Group. We must have the support of the Louis Vuitton Group. We L'Oreal will Getting stronger and stronger!" Liliana Bettencourt said~www.wuxiaspot.com~ At this time, Liliana Bettencourt had to be arrogant, because today's shares are not as good as Liliana Bettencourt, and Ender The news from Lie Bettencourt only persuaded the French government to help each other, and it is absolutely impossible to help Liliana Bettencourt.

So Liliana Bettencourt started the war without coming up, but wanted to delay time in a quiet way so that she could get time to get more shares in the stock market.

"President Liliana, we Louis Vuitton Group are very new to L'Oreal, so we have this acquisition of shares. We are very optimistic about L'Oreal's development, and we are also very optimistic about the combination of L'Oreal and Louis Vuitton Group, presumably The combination of the two groups can take L'Oréal to the next level, and that's what shareholders want to see," said Nelson Tabia.

This shareholders meeting, Li Zhiwen handed over to Nelson Tabia to do it, and he planned to be a transparent person.

After all, if L'Oreal is won, Nelson Tabia will be directly responsible, so it is more appropriate for Nelson Tabia to come forward.

And Nelson Tabbia's words are very lethal. They are telling other shareholders that as long as we, Louis Vuitton Group, control L'Oreal, the two companies can use various channels to use each other, and even allow the two companies to merge. Let the company's market value go further.

Of course, there are also shares in the hands of shareholders such as L'Oreal.
