v3 Chapter 878： Countermeasures against the Rohill family

"Boss, this is the situation. An unknown company is also acquiring shares in Phillip Brothers. It is already certain that the other party has acquired at least 15% of the shares."

Toby Morton reported to Xia Yuhui solemnly.

Toby Morton just increased his vigilance at the first instance, but the subsequent series of bad news made him feel uncomfortable.

According to the statistics of the number of target shares of the acquisition team, the opponent has already acquired more than 15% of the shares. If he considers that some targets have not yet started, he cannot be sure how much the opponent has acquired.

He could only make emergency dispatch, and let the company's acquisition team immediately change the target and acquire more equity before the opponent.

Then he called the boss Xia Yu, and that's what happened now.

Xia Yu frowned slightly, thinking about where the problem might be, and who the unknown enemy is!

Only with limited information, the unknown is too great, and it is difficult for him to determine the goal.

Slightly shook his head to look back. He wanted Toby Morton to ask: "Toby, how much equity has the company acquired now?"

Toby Morton quickly reported: "At present, our shareholding ratio has reached 61%. We acquired 27.4% from the beginning, and then took the Phillips family. 27.8% of the shareholdings of the two minority shareholders at the same time yesterday."

"Sixty-one percent..."

Xia Yu stretched her brows and chewed the number in her mouth.

Although it is still far from the goal of a wholly-owned acquisition, it is only 5.7 percent away from the two-thirds line. The gap is not too big.

When things have happened, we can only lower our psychological expectations and prepare ourselves.

However, considering the futures contracts that Galaxy Fund has not yet sold, Xia Yu is determined that he does not believe that his opponent dares to invest billions of dollars in the call of Philip Brothers.

Now the valuation of Philip Brothers is about to drop below 100 million U.S. dollars. The cost of buying stocks is very small. It depends on whether the opponent has the ability to retain so many shares!

Thinking of this, Xia Yu told Toby Morton: "Toby, it doesn't matter if you make a full purchase and raise the price, but you must make the company's shareholding ratio exceed 66.7%!"

"Also don't forget to investigate who your opponent is!"

Feeling the resoluteness in the boss's tone, Toby Morton's face was straightened and he replied with a nod: "I understand, I will execute it myself."

Soon, Toby Morton left the office at a hasty pace.

Xia Yu tapped his fingers on the tabletop, his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes glowed with inexplicable brilliance, and his names kept flashing in his mind.

"Ring Ling Ling..."

Half an hour later, a rapid bell rang, awakening Xia Yu from his contemplation.

He picked up the microphone and just wanted to ask who the other party was. The familiar voice from the receiver made Xia Yu's face straightened, and he immediately greeted, "Sir Carter, hello."

The caller turned out to be Duke Carter Howard, which surprised Xia Yu. Thinking about it carefully, this seems to be the second time Duke Carter Howard has called him on his own initiative. Usually, everything goes through Elena or George Berkeley conveyed.

"Good luck, it happened that you answered the phone, Xia Yu..."

Listening to Duke Carter Howard's constant telling, Xia Yu's complexion gradually became serious, and his attention became more concentrated, for fear of missing any information.

"Huh! It really is them!"

Three minutes later, Duke Carter Howard finally finished speaking. Xia Yu pondered for more than ten seconds and said affirmatively: "Sir Carter, if your investigation is not wrong, then it is not possible that the Rohill family wants to annex Bahrain. The bank must want to do that."

"The current situation is that we are on the surface, and the Roshir family is hiding in the dark. Do you think that the Bahrain Bank is closed. With our two families alone, is it possible to take over the Bahrain Bank?"

In Xia Yu's view, whether it was the Rothschild family who took the Bank of Bahrain directly or held a part of the equity, it was not the result he wanted, nor was it the result that Duke Carter Howard wanted.

Both the Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank have been blended by the Rohill family, resulting in his plan not being perfected. He doesn't want the Bank of Bahrain to do the same.

I believe that Duke Carter Howard, who wants to expand the autonomy and strength of the Howard family in the financial field, is absolutely unwilling to see the Rohill family come in, causing him to be unable to hide secrets, and there are no secrets for future actions.

The defensive psychology of the ancient British nobles towards the Rohill family has never weakened!

"If the Rohill family is also competing, it will be difficult to achieve the original goal if we rely on us alone. We must find a partner who can play a decisive role."

Duke Carter Howard's dull voice came from the earpiece.

"Who?"

Xia Yuyan asked concisely.

"The Royal Family!"

Duke Carter Howard said again.

Xia Yu was taken aback, pondered for a moment, and slowly nodded and said:

"Yes, I believe the royal family will not want to see the Bank of Barings fall into the hands of the Rohill family."

The Lowhill family is the British financial hegemon. The Barclays Bank controlled by the Rohill family is now the largest bank in the United Kingdom. In addition to HSBC, National Westminster Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, Royal Bank of Scotland, etc. Holding shares in banks has enough influence!

If the Roshir family swallows the first few banks of Barings in the United Kingdom again, the Rossell family will have a high probability of saving the Bank of Bahrain, even if it is not good, it will be able to swallow a large amount of Bahrain’s bank assets and let the financial hegemony The status becomes more unshakable.

Britain's financial power structure will be extremely unbalanced!

Not to mention, the Bank of Bahrain is the partner of the royal family's queen. Now the royal family’s large assets are managed by the Bank of Bahrain. If the Bank of Bahrain is taken away by the Rohir family, the royal family’s large assets will have to look for partners again. The royal family will not cooperate with the Rohir family.

"Sir Carter, who of the royal family are you planning to be our partner?"

Xia Yu asked immediately.

Duke Carter Howard’s words came from the receiver again: "Prince Philip!"

Xia Yu said without hesitation: "This is a very good candidate, Sir Carter, are you sure?"

"..."

After talking for another half an hour before Xia Yu hung up, the smile on the corner of his mouth revealed that he was in a pretty good mood.

Just now Duke Carter Howard has said that he is sure to pull Prince Philip aboard, use the power of the royal family to influence the Bank of England's Bank of England to intervene, and directly remove the Rohill family from the competition list.

Among the royal family, it is impossible for the queen to participate in the business affairs of the royal family for the sake of face and image, but her husband, Prince Philip, does not have this restriction. Besides, there are also the means of the vest company.

I believe that as long as you get Prince Philip, you get the queen.

If it is possible to cooperate with the royal family , the benefits of Xia Yu will not be a little bit. What he has behind is a way to make the relationship closer. When the relationship continues, political and commercial interests will be easier to manipulate.

Therefore, Xia Yu agreed with Duke Carter Howard's proposal with both hands, and looked forward to the success of Duke Carter Howard in his heart.

In order to ensure the success rate, Duke Carter Howard also said that at a critical time, he would even go privately to find Barrett Bahrain to give the Rothier family a fatal blow.

It is believed that Barrett Bahrain will hate the Rohill family even more among the Roshill family behind the scenes, and the direct rivals Howard and the Bright Fund.

After all, it is the Bahrain Bank deliberately antagonizing the Bright Fund and the Howard family first, and the latter two are completely legal and reasonable.

"Sir Carter is a powerful partner, and it seems that I don't need to worry about the British side."

"Now let's deal with the United States first. I want to know who this opponent is and will it surprise me? An accident? Or a fright?"
