Unconsciously, it was March.

When opening the calendar shelf on the desktop at home, Xia Yu felt like time flies.

In a blink of an eye, I have been in France for more than three months…

While eating breakfast while reading the newspaper leisurely, suddenly Li Wuming came over with a sealed envelope and whispered a few words in Xia Yu’s ear.

Xia Yu eyes flashed, then opened the envelope, took out the information inside and browsed.

The intelligence is sent by Luo Wang. Generally, if there is a major event or something he ordered to pay attention to, Luo Wang will continuously send the intelligence to him.

This kind of secret information, combined with the news on the surface sent by Jiuding News Agency, can give Xia Yu a clear line of major events around the world, so as to better formulate strategies or deliver instruction.

Today’s intelligence is very important. The intelligence comes from New York, USA.

Argentina President Galtieri led a team to visit United States and was received by Ronald Reagan.

Combined with the information received on February 16, the Foreign Minister of Argentina and the Foreign Minister of United Kingdom negotiated in New York, and the negotiations broke down.

Undoubtedly, when the negotiations broke down last time, Galtieri could not sit still and wanted to conflict with the United Kingdom, but he lacked confidence in his heart, so he hoped to get the support of the United States, one of the current polarities. I personally led the team to visit United States.

The reason for the visit is very formal. As the newly appointed President, he has not formally paid homage to the United States.

And Ronald Reagan also accepted Galtieri’s interview application.

The specific content of the negotiation is definitely not monitored by Luo Wang, but Xia Yu can guess it.

“Galtieri seems to have forgotten that Ronald Reagan used to be an actor!”

“The President of the engineer who has his brain full of muscles but has not been on the battlefield…”

“hehe…”

Xia Yu chuckled lightly, then threw the information into the stove aside, watching the white paper full of information burn to ashes.

“The time I can stay in France is getting less and less…”

After this thought flashed in his mind, Xia Yu speeded up the breakfast a bit, and drove to the Bright Fund after eating.

……

After Xia Yu came to the office, Leo Martin carried the folder to report to Xia Yu.

“Boss, this is the statistical list of acquisition results we completed this month, please review it!”

“en! Let me see!”

Xia Yu smiled and complied, and after receiving the folder, he looked at it.

In late January, he made a list of acquisitions to Leo Martin, asking him to contact Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland, apply for financial support, and use bank funds to acquire some targets.

Almost 40 days have passed, and the Mergers and Acquisitions Department of Bright Fund has also completed many tasks and progress.

Mainly concentrated in the wine market.

France Wine Company, a large French company producing and selling mid-to-low-end wines, acquired 20% of the equity shares of this unlisted company at a cost of 142 million francs.

Europe is the chief giant of the wine retail chain industry and the world’s largest wine chain-Edfang Nicholas Shares Co., Ltd. This is also a non-listed company. Bright Fund acquired 20% of nine equity shares and became its second major shareholder , Cost 130 million francs.

Aidefang Nicholas Shares Co., Ltd. now has 285 stores, which is enough to greatly strengthen the sales of the lvmh group.

The Bright Fund also secretly acquired 15% of Pernod Ricard’s equity shares by account. If announced, it would be enough to make Bright Fund the first major shareholder of this listed company.

The Pernod Ricard Group was established immediately after the Moet Hennessy Wine Group. The two listed companies, the Pernod Group established in 1805 and the Ricard Group established in 1932, merged in 1975. Later, it became the Overlord of the ouzo market. The current market value is more than 4.78 billion francs. The speaking of which is only 1.1 billion francs lower than the Moet Hennessy Wine Group that was acquired.

However, the equity shares of this company are more dispersed than those of the Moet Hennessy Wine Group. The first major shareholder is the Lijia family, with a share ratio of 10%, 3.1, and 20% of the voting rights.

The second major shareholder is the Pernod family, with only 9.2% shares and 15% of the voting rights.

Two Great Families have a small share ratio, but the total voting rights have a 35% ratio, and both families are Founders, which is enough to give investors and shareholders confidence, so when the company’s equity shares are scattered and chaotic , Is also enough to jointly control the company.

In this company, the Board-Chairman is rotated by the Pernod family and the Ricard family. The current Board-Chairman is Patrick Ricard of the Ricard family.

Xia Yu remembers clearly that Pernod Ricard’s later generation experienced a series of mergers and acquisitions, and finally developed into one of the world’s three major spirits and wine groups. In 2011, the turnover had a breakthrough of two. Hundreds of 3 billion USD, ranking second in the world wine industry.

This company is also the focus of Xia Yu’s acquisition of Leo Martin.

When the action target was determined before, this Pernod Ricard Group once became Xia Yu’s primary consideration. Later, considering whether to take into account the wine industry and the luxury goods sector, or to start the lvmh group first, so for the time being, Pernod Lijia Group put aside.

However, after the establishment of the lvmh Group, the plan to acquire Pernod Ricard Group must of course be followed up immediately.

As long as lvmh Group Mergers and Acquisitions Pernod Ricard Group can be made, Bright Fund can occupy a leading position in the French wine market. This is a strategic goal!

Of course, in addition to the three mission objectives of the wine market, in the retail sector, Xia Yu also designated a mission objective, which is Carrefour.

Carrefour is the second largest retail company in the world known in the later generation, second only to the existence of Wal-Mart.

But now, although Carrefour is the founder of a hypermarket, it can’t even get into the top ten in the French retail market. Carrefour, which was listed in 1970 after 11 years of establishment, has a market value of only 4 billion francs.

No way, the retail industry is one of the mainstream industries in society, whether in ancient times or in modern times. There are still many established retail giants in France that have existed for hundreds of years, and they are basically controlled by Great Family. .

The founders of Carrefour, Marcel Fournier and Louis de Frey, are both ordinary persons. This is why the cumulative share ratio of the two can be kept at 30% so far, and they are even more affected by the later generation. People take away the company.

It’s like the Auchan Group, which was established by the Murier family to follow suit. Now it has been 100% controlled by the Murier family for twenty years. Even in the later generation, it is still in the hands of the Murier family.

Speaking of which.

The market value of Carrefour is now low, which just reduces Xia Yu’s acquisition cost.

Led for more than a month, the Bright Fund spent a total of 800 million 23 million francs and secretly acquired 10% of Carrefour’s 9.5 equity shares, although the overwhelming majority are ordinary shares without voting rights.

However, Xia Yu doesn’t care either. What he likes is Carrefour’s excellent business model and future potential.

Furthermore, Founder Marcel Fournier and Louis de Frey are not from Great Family. As long as the Bright Fund is allowed in, there are ways to increase shares rights until finally dove occupying the magpie nest.

……

After putting down the files, Xia Yu instructed Leo Martin: “Leo, the progress of the acquisition of these tasks is not bad, but you have to let them continue to speed up the progress.”

“Especially France Wine Company, Edfang Nicholas Shares Co., Ltd. and Pernod Ricard Group. The equity shares of these three companies are relatively scattered, and the acquisition will not be too difficult. It must be completed by the end of March! There is a whole month!”

“There is also Carrefour, continue to increase acquisitions!”

“Standard Chartered Bank and Royal Bank of Scotland are here to fully support you, don’t tell me that it can’t be done!”

Leo Martin had not had time to be happy, he heard the harsh words behind Xia Yu, he was heart shivered with cold, and he straightened his chest and responded with a serious face: “Boss, I will do my best to speed up the progress!”

Xia Yu was slightly nodded, just about to send him away, and suddenly remembered a piece of news that I had just read in the newspaper the other day about a Decathlon sports store.

This retailer specializing in sporting goods, the latter generation has achieved the top in the world, with annual sales exceeding 10 billion Euros.

Now it’s just a small company that has just been established for six years. There are not many stores yet. It was at a time of weakness. Founder Michel Lehrek was also an ordinary person. The best time to start is now. !

He instructed Leo Martin again: “Leo, France has a company called Decathlon, which is a retailer that specializes in sports goods. The Founder is called Michelle Lelec. The company has acquired it, and on the premise of retaining its Founder, equity shares can be acquired as high as possible.”

Leo Martin obediently nodded and said: “Okay!”

“Do you have anything else?” Xia Yu glanced at Leo Martin and asked softly.

“No more!” Leo Martin said decisively, shaking his head.

“Boss, then I will go ahead!”

“Go!” After Xia Yu said, he picked up a newspaper next to it and read it…
