On April 20, a news from the battlefield excited the British people.

The main battleship “General Belgrano” of the Argentina Task Force was sunk by the British “Conqueror” attack nuclear submarine at a distance of 187 nautical miles from the Falklands.

Six other ships were also sunk, and the remaining ships fled back to Port Stanley in a panic.

This result not only excited the British people, but also shocked other countries.

Because of this time, the British army created the first battle of a nuclear submarine sinking a surface warship after World War II.

And the “General Belgrano” is the largest surface ship sunk after World War II with a full displacement of 13,750 tons. Its sinking caused Argentina’s naval forces to withdraw from the war and sit back and watch. The army gained control of the sea area of ​​Falkland Islands.

The Argentina military lost sea dominance when air dominance was suppressed, leaving only the Argentina Air Force fighting alone.

The Argentina garrison on the island has become a turtle in the urn, waiting for the British to strangle.

It’s just that British hasn’t been happy for a day, but a bad news came on the battlefield.

The modern and advanced main battleship “Sheffield”, which was launched by the United Kingdom Navy in 1971 at a cost of 150 million USD, was sunk by the Argentina Air Force, and the ship that sent him into the seabed was worth only 200,000 USD. France “Flying Fish” missile!

When this news spread to France, I don’t know how many French people were shocked. After the shock, they became proud. The French military also paid more attention to this air-launched main missile that had just entered service in 1979, because they knew that in the future Missiles will receive large quantities of orders, which is simply a pie in the sky!

The French people are happy, but the British are angry. 200,000 USD missiles have been replaced by their 150 million USD battleships. This huge gap is simply hitting them in the face.

Moreover, the missiles are produced by the French, who British hates, how can we not let British fly into a rage out of humiliation?

Xia Yu was speechless after receiving the news, and could only lament the wonder of fate. After all, the United Kingdom Navy could not escape this disaster.

Originally, the British army could achieve a perfect victory. Now that the main battleship “Sheffield” is sunk, it is destined that even if it wins in the end, there will still be shortcomings!

Fly into a rage out of humiliation, the United Kingdom military went crazy and decided to launch a general offensive against the Argentina military, trying to end the war as soon as possible and save face for the United Kingdom military.

In the middle of the night of April 23, the British special air crew took a helicopter to land at Fanning’s Cape on Falkland Islands. After a night of reconnaissance, vertical landing and beach landing, more than 1,000 British troops “dropping from the sky” The port of San Carlos was successfully captured, and the 40 Argentina defenders stationed in the port were wiped out.

In the early morning of April 24, the British landing operation was in full swing. After the British landed, they immediately built the Defensive Array and formed an air defense firepower net with naval guns, various air defense missiles and anti-aircraft machine guns.

Then the troops landed continuously through the port of San Carlos, and the troops were divided into two groups to clamp down on the port of Stanley where Argentina’s army gathered, and the ground war began in the mainland of Argentina.

Scales of Victory moved towards United Kingdom again Tilt!

And just now.

Xia Yu, who is returning from Norfolk to London, got a message from United States.

Polaris Capital’s President Peter Lynch wants to ask him about one thing.

……

London City, Bright Fund Headquarters, in Xia Yu’s office.

Xia Yu looked at a report in her hand with a satisfied smile on her face.

“Peter Lynch did not disappoint me!”

Xia Yu lightly said with a smile.

Although he hasn’t been to United States for over a year.

But Peter Lynch perfectly carried out every order he issued by remote control, and Polaris Capital also grew rapidly under his management.

Last year, Polaris Capital Corporation cooperated with Jiuding Securities Ltd. New York branch and completed several extremely important tasks.

The first is to spend 1.9 billion USD to buy 14% of the equity shares of General Electric Company, and become one of the major shareholders of General Electric Company.

If it’s just that’s all, the point is that General Electric started to walk out of the bottom after Jack Welch took over as CEO in April last year. Now the market value has risen from a low of 100 3 billion USD to 250. 1.4 billion USD.

This also means that the equity shares held by Polaris Capital have reached 1.8 billion USD!

The second result is The Coca-Cola Company.

Thanks to Peter Lynch’s efforts, he finally bought 25% of Coca-Cola’s equity shares from the Chicago Consortium, and bought 20% of 1.7 equity shares from Morgan Consortium, even though it cost a total of 90 million 30 million USD.

But the Coca-Cola Company was also freed from the struggle of the three major consortiums.

In addition to the 30% 8.2 equity shares held by the United Kingdom Bright Fund, Xia Yu actually owns 80% of Coca-Cola’s 5.3 equity shares, and the remaining equity shares are scattered outside.

However, for Xia Yu, who already has actual absolute control, under the premise of not preparing to privatize Coca-Cola, the scattered equity shares totaling 14% and 7 are already considered very few.

apart from this.

The Taiwan branch of Polaris Capital has also grown rapidly. It has invested in dozens of potential companies in Taiwan, including Hon Hai, which Xia Yu named, and received 40% equity shares.

……

This time, it is not the most important thing for Peter Lynch to report the company’s development to Xia Yu.

The core purpose is about an acquisition.

After many discussions, the management of Coca-Cola Company formulated a new long-term strategic development plan, and the most important thing was an acquisition.

The Coca-Cola Company hopes to acquire Columbia Film Industries, one of the Hollywood giants that are now at a trough, open up the channel between Coca-Cola and the entertainment business, use movies to drive Coca-Cola’s sales growth, increase Coca-Cola’s market exposure and improve its product image.

The current CEO of Coca-Cola Company Donald Robert also gave an example, that is, celebrity big names all drink Coca-Cola, and Pepsi only appears in the hands of the villain…

Currently, the market value of Columbia Pictures is only more than 370 million USD, but if it wants to acquire a privatization wholly-owned, it is conservatively estimated that it will need 600 million USD or more.

The Coca-Cola Company itself cannot provide it, so it is definitely necessary to issue additional shares, mergers and acquisitions, and a large amount of capital.

Because Xia Yu attaches great importance to the Coca-Cola Company, and Polaris Capital already has a MGM film company in Hollywood, Peter Lynch is not able to make a decision, so he reported the situation to Xia Yu, hoping that He makes the decision.

“Boom…boom…boom…”

Looking at the information in her hand, Xia Yu smiled slightly, tapping her fingers on the desktop rhythmically, and the previous life’s information about Coca-Cola emerged in her mind.

previous life Coca-Cola Company also acquired Columbia Film Industries, which was in the hands of Coca-Cola Company, and many classic films appeared, and the company also went out of the trough.

It’s just that the Coca-Cola Company’s strategic plan to use movies to substantially drive Coke sales failed.

But the Coca-Cola Company did not lose money, because the Coca-Cola Company later sold Columbia Film Industries to Japan Sony Corporation for a price of 5,000,000,000 USD.

So now Coca-Cola is willing to buy Columbia Pictures.

More importantly, Xia Yu is really not satisfied with owning only one MGM Pictures company. He hopes to occupy half of Hollywood and become the king of Hollywood’s Supreme!

Allowing Polaris Capital to acquire a Hollywood giant will be too direct and conspicuous, and it will easily cause backlash.

So it is undoubtedly a good way to acquire Columbia Film Industries in the name of Coca-Cola. The success rate will even be higher than that of Polaris Capital, which already owns a Hollywood giant.

Even if the Coca-Cola Company does not need it in the future, you can still use the right hand.

There are so many benefits, so what is there to hesitate? Of course it is approved!

However, at this time, Xia Yu saw Coca-Cola’s plan from the information, he was subconsciously frowned.

After calculating the time difference, I found that San Francisco should be around nine o’clock in the morning. Xia Yu picked up the phone and dialed Peter Lynch’s office number.

It didn’t take long before the call was connected.

Xia Yu said very simply: “Peter, i am Xia Yu…The company is managed very well, I am very satisfied, thanks for your hard work…”

“Fully support the Coca-Cola Company to buy Columbia Pictures Industries, and strengthen the cooperation between MGM Pictures and it…”

“There is another point. The Coca-Cola Company’s decision to change the formula is wrong. I disagree. The Coca-Cola formula is the company’s brand spirit and leads the loyalty of consumers. Changing the formula is to change the habits of all consumers and challenge them. The consequences of the consumer beliefs are extremely serious. Let the company use other methods to increase sales…”

“pa ta!”

After talking for more than ten minutes, Xia Yu hung up.

In the later generation, the Coca-Cola Company changed its formula in the 80s and was even called by the New York Times as one of the most significant mistakes in the United States business community in a century.

After only changing the formula for three months, angry consumers were reluctant to change back to the original formula, but the damage caused by this process to Coca-Cola was extremely far-reaching, causing Coca-Cola’s sales to drop a lot. The market was handed over to PepsiCo for nothing.

Since the Coca-Cola Company is his now, how can he ignore it knowing that the management is making the wrong decision?

Even if the management doesn’t understand and is dissatisfied, Xia Yu doesn’t care, and at the worst, he changes.

He is the real controller, and his orders must be implemented!

……

In the next few days, Xia Yu, accompanied by George Berkeley, inspected the Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank respectively.

The personnel in these two banks were cleaned up again, and the personnel belonging to the Rothschild Family or related personnel, whether executive or middle-level, were all fired.

Before the Rothschild Family was still a shareholder, Xia Yu couldn’t do it if he wanted to. Now that he has finally managed to fully control the two banks, he will naturally not hesitate.

The purpose of this is for confidentiality.

Even more how, Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank have been delayed long enough. If one thing is not done quickly, it is very likely to lose a lot.

That is, the sovereign debt to the Latin American countries must be cleaned up as soon as possible!

Xia Yu had previously controlled Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank and asked George Berkeley to make statistics on the sovereign debt of these two banks against Latin American countries.

Among them, Royal Bank of Scotland holds sovereign debts of more than 2.23 billion USD in Latin American countries.

The Standard Chartered Bank holds more than 1.98 billion USD of sovereign debt to Latin American countries.

It is worth mentioning that Standard Chartered Bank also holds 30% of the equity shares of Standard Chartered Bank, the largest bank in South Africa.

The South African Standard Chartered Bank also holds more than 600 million USD of sovereign debt in Latin American countries.

Xia Yu had asked Duke Carter Howard to pit the Rothschild Family before conspiring to sell the sovereign debts of Lloyds Bank one after another, and most of them were transferred to Barclays Bank at a deliberately low price.

But Barclays Bank has always been a shareholder of Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank, so Xia Yu can’t do it at all.

Now that the Rothschild Family has been cleaned out, and the employees have also cleaned it out, the time bombs of up to 1.2 billion USD held by the two banks must be thrown out as soon as possible.

Otherwise, once the Latin American sovereign debt crisis broke out and the Latin American countries refused to repay their debts, Xia Yu would have to lose more than 1.2 billion USD!

So after Xia Yu inspected the two banks and went back, he immediately convened George Berkeley and the presidents of the two banks for a short meeting to clarify the work requirements.

Before June, clear out all the sovereign debts of the Latin American countries held by Royal Bank of Scotland and Standard Chartered Bank, and transfer them to Barclays Bank as much as possible. Apart from this is to transfer to mergers. and acquisitions of quality banks.

During the meeting, the President of Standard Chartered Bank also raised a question about whether or not South African Standard Chartered Bank should also transfer the sovereign debt held by it.

After all, Standard Chartered Bank is the first major shareholder of Standard Chartered Bank in South Africa. If the latter loses more than 600 million USD, it will be allocated to Standard Chartered Bank in proportion to its equity shares, and it will be equivalent to a loss of 200 million. More than 60 million USD.

This is a big number!

However, Xia Yu directly rejected the Standard Chartered Bank President’s proposal.

First, letting South African Standard Chartered Bank transfer sovereign debt will cause unnecessary risks.

Second, Xia Yu has a plan in mind. It is a great opportunity for Standard Chartered Bank, the largest commercial bank in South Africa and Africa, to suffer heavy losses!

So after he clarified his ideas, the President of Standard Chartered Bank was pleasantly surprised and praised Xia Yu’s brilliant.

After finishing the tasks of the two banks, Xia Yu was idle again.

He is still in United Kingdom, only one thing is left unfinished!
