“Mr. Barn, GEICO’s shares are not for sale in our company. I am very optimistic about its future. Therefore, I have been increasing its shares in the past 4 years. So I am sorry, I will not sell, let you go on an errand for nothing.”

Berkshire Hathaway’s chairman’s office, looking at a manager of Merrill Lynch mergers and acquisitions sitting across from him, Buffett suppressed the urgency in his heart and refused with a serious face.

Before coming, Barn had prepared relevant information, so he knew that Buffett was right. Berkshire Hathaway has been increasing its holdings of GEICO shares.

But for Buffett’s non-sale remarks, he sneered, thinking that this was Buffett’s pavement for raising the price.

He has been in the financial industry for several decades and has already seen the true face of Wall Street. Here, there is no non-sale, as long as there is USD, you can buy everything you want here.

If you can’t buy it, then there is only one possibility-USD is not enough!

Barn said with a faint smile: “Mr. Buffett, I have made relevant preparations before coming, so I think we should be honest with each other. GEICO seems to be improving at present, but the unknown risks are too great. Because of this, we at Merrill Lynch lowered its rating.”

“Berkshire Hathaway’s share ratio is a bit embarrassing today, and your strength is not enough to eat it. Instead of getting into a fight, it is better to withdraw in time.”

“Last year, Berkshire Hathaway’s revenue was very high, but if you get into a quagmire because of GEICO’s competition, it will be very bad for your company.”

Buffett face doesn’t change, but his heart sank. From Barn’s words, he heard some potential meanings.

Is this threatening him?

He frowns and tentatively said: “Mr. Barn, I remember Merrill Lynch is the third major shareholder of GEICO. Can I know who your shares are being sold to? Who is behind the acquisition?”

Buffett is not sure if Merrill Lynch is acquiring it himself, this is just his tentative question.

Although Barn said that Merrill Lynch had lowered the market value of GEICO, it cannot be ruled out that Merrill Lynch is acting as the owner to suppress the market value of GEICO.

Barn is certainly not stupid enough to let Buffett figure out the truth. He said with a smile: “Mr. Buffett, I’m just the person in charge of the acquisition. I don’t care about other things. I just need to do my own duties.”

“Mr. Buffett, for Berkshire Hathaway’s 20% 7:3 equity shares, we are willing to bid 5000 7 million USD. With this money, you will have more capital investment and more valuable the company.”

Buffett didn’t get the information he wanted, and he was full of doubts. He directly ignored Barn’s offer and declined: “Mr. Barn, I understand what you mean. I personally don’t want to sell shares of GEICO, and GEICO’s shares. Shares is an important investment project of our company. If you want to sell, it also needs to be approved by the Board of Directors. I cannot give you any answer for the time being.”

Barn also knew that the first time he came to impossible to negotiate, as long as Buffett and Berkshire Hathaway Board of Directors are considering this matter, then his goal today will be achieved.

But he won’t let Buffett keep on going like this. Their Merrill Lynch has this qualification and ability to set the rules.

Therefore he slightly nodded with a smile: “Okay, then I won’t bother you, looking forward to your reply, I will visit again tomorrow!”

Buffett shook his face, suppressed the unhappiness in his heart, forced a smile and said, “Okay, please!”

After sending Bath out the door, Buffett returned to the office and sat down on the sofa, browsing tightly frowns, thinking about Bath’s purpose and motives.

At this moment, a subordinate hurriedly walked in and awakened Buffett.

“Board-Chairman, I have a special situation to report to you!”

The subordinate facial expression grave stood in front of Buffett and said.

Seeing the solemn expressions of his subordinates, Buffett, who was already in a heavy mood, once again had a bad feeling in his heart. He took a deep breath said solemnly: “What’s the matter?”

Subordinates immediately replied: “The company’s shares analysis department found that our company’s stock price is currently fluctuating abnormally, and the transaction scale is rising greatly, and there is no trend of suspension or reduction.”

Buffett was shocked and immediately got up instructed: “Come with me.”

After that, Buffett took his subordinates to rush to understand the situation.

Soon, he knew that his subordinates did not lie to him.

He suppressed the surging thoughts, picked up the phone and made a few calls. After hanging up, his expression was solemn.

His friend works at the New York Stock Exchange and has confirmed with him that there are a large number of Berkshire Hathaway shares in the transaction, and they are now constantly hanging up to buy orders. The biggest buyer is a company called Polaris Capital’s company, the specific information is unclear.

In this action, Xia Yu did not intend to hide it, so the acquirer perfectly and clearly showed Polaris Capital.

“Polaris Capital…”

Buffett murmured and frowned, but he couldn’t recall the relevant information, and he felt very strange.

Just now Merrill Lynch came to acquire shares of GEICO, and now there is another Northstar Capital company that is acquiring shares of their company.

The motivations of the former and the latter are not clear.

His instinct told him that there should be a certain connection between these two, otherwise it would be impossible to be such a coincidence!

But anyway, he knew that the company was in trouble, and now it must be resolved.

Moreover, the acquisition of shares by Polaris Capital is even more urgent. If he doesn’t figure out the situation, he can’t sleep well.

Thinking of this, he immediately ordered his subordinates to mobilize all efforts to find out the information of Polaris Capital, and at the same time raise funds and prepare for emergency.

Then, he asked his secretary to notify the other board members and immediately summoned them to convene the Board of Directors.

……

“Boss, this is the list of shares that have been acquired so far.”

Polaris Capital, Xia Yu came to the special working group office and took a look at the list submitted by Xia Yu.

The above clearly stated the shares acquisition process of the two targets, including information such as time, transaction target, transaction price, etc., of course, summarized information is also essential.

For the specific acquisition process, Xia Yu skipped it after a few glances and looked towards the final statistics.

Among them, GEICO’s equity shares already hold 10% 8 points 7 of which, Merrill Lynch alone contributes 10% 2, accounting for nearly 2/3.

Apart from this, there is an investment institution that originally shares 5% points2, owns a board seat in GEICO, but also directly sold all shares to Polaris Capital.

The remaining 1% of 5 equity shares were acquired from bulk purchases on the market.

GEICO has been in decline for four years. Although it has improved, it is still difficult to change its image of junk stocks in the past few years. It has already consumed the patience of investors thoroughly. Therefore, after the purchase order is placed, the number of orders is unknown.

At present, the company is still working on several important shareholders. Once it is taken down, it can easily surpass Berkshire Hathaway, leap to the position of second major shareholder, and even surpass the original first major shareholder.

As for Berkshire Hathaway, thanks to its good performance last year, the capital market has higher expectations of it, and ordinary investors are relatively optimistic about its future, so acquisitions are more difficult.

At present, I have not won any major shareholder, but only 1% of equity shares in the hands of a financial institution, and then acquired some shares on the market. The two together accounted for 7% of the equity shares 2.

However, Xia Yu is quite satisfied with this result. This result has been achieved in just a few days. Peter Lynch has contributed a lot. He has served in the Fidelity Fund for such a long time and has accumulated a wide network of contacts for him. , Immediately played a role.

After putting the list in place, Xia Yu once again instructed and encouraged the subordinates of the acquisition team, then checked the time and went to prepare for the interview.

Wall Street is the place with the largest number of financial elites. Polaris Capital will play an extremely important role in the acquisition field in the future. The company urgently needs a large number of talents. Now the branch has a serious shortage of talents, so it has been recruiting externally. At the same time, Xia Yu also commissioned Korn Ferry New York branch is responsible for hunting and recommending.

Peter Lynch is running around for several acquisitions, so naturally he can only come for the interview.
