Chapter 462: Good News and Bad News
Also Upper East Side.
The site of Sun Fund Company is located in the Upper West Side, and the Red Giant was arranged in the Upper East Side according to Abel's wishes.
However, compared with the wealthy ****, these two newly-founded companies do not have their own buildings now.
They are currently renting offices.
In the office of the Red Giant's chairman, Abel was struggling with whether to obey the task of fate and find a way to soak his "Cheer Sister".
Elizabeth Sherlock Holmes sat across from him and looked at him with a smile. After she began to say the words teased my cousin, she never said anything again.
It was at this time.
Abel's phone rang.
When he saw that it was Alvertley's phone call.
"Al?"
"BOSS! Now there is good news and bad news, I must tell you right away!"
"Oh! After that."
"The good news is that Chevron Oil has notified us. They are willing to agree to the conditions we have proposed to sell all the California United Oil base to us for $5 billion!"
"The contract can be signed today, but they ask us to pay in one lump sum! The former president of California United Petroleum and the current vice president of Chevron Petroleum have all arrived at our company..."
Abel was refreshed!
He originally had this idea when buying California United Petroleum from Chevron Oil. But later the price of Chevron Oil was too exaggerated and he was ready to give up.
But the smoke of fate jumped out and gave him a task, and the reward seemed very generous.
For the sake of believing in the smoke of fate, he was ready to accept this offer that seemed a bit scammed for outsiders... Not to mention outsiders, even Alvertley and others thought the price was not worth it.
But Abel believed that the smoke of fate would not make any outrageous mistakes. There must be extremely generous rewards in that oil field.
It took more than half a month and now I finally got the result!
"Sign the contract now! Get the money over! And, contact David Adams immediately! Let him take the most elite exploration team of California United Oil and go to Texas! Wait for my command at night, I have a place that I need to see!"
Abel couldn't wait to give orders to Alverte.
Alvertley was actually a little puzzled.
Buying $200 billion in assets of $200 billion is apart from investing in antiques and stocks, which will appreciate. Most of the time, it seems to be a very stupid behavior to outsiders. But now the boss is so impatient. Alvertley can only guess that the boss must be interested in other assets of California United Petroleum.
The boss has created so many miracles, and Alvertley has now unconditionally believed in Abel.
He immediately reported: "Rana is already negotiating the details of the contract with them! Mr. Frank is also conducting some legal discussions with the other party's legal team. If there is no accident... the contract can be signed at night!"
"Well... this should be considered good news. So bad news?" Abel asked in a good mood.
“The bad news is…”
"Our acquisition of Victoria's Secret parent company LB was strongly blocked! LB company found their White Knight, said to be a Seattle businessman authorized by Buffett, who took over a large portion of LB's shares!"
"So far, we only hold about 24 to 25% of LV's shares! This is said to be a Seattle businessman authorized by Buffett. He currently holds 26.7% of the shares! With the original chairman of LB and their senior executives, it has exceeded 51% of the number!"
"BOSS! It's hard for us to complete the holding! Unless the other party is willing to sell it to us..."
Hearing Alfretley say this, Abel remembered that he was conducting a malicious acquisition of Victoria's Secret's parent company.
The so-called malicious acquisition is to secretly initiate the acquisition when the other party is unwilling to do so. Then, after reaching a certain share ratio, an overall acquisition is initiated against all the other party’s shareholders.
Since it is a malicious acquisition, it is really a very normal behavior for the other party to find helpers when he is unwilling to sell.
At least this is how Albertel understood it, and even Elizabeth, who heard Abel was acquiring Lb, understood it in this way.
But Abel himself did not agree, as if the acquisition of Lb was blocked and there was nothing to him.
He nodded.
He said to the phone in his hand: "Okay. Keep it like this for the time being. Get the contract with Chevron Oil Company first, and let's talk about LB Company tomorrow!"
"Okay! boss!"
The call is over.
Abel looked at Elizabeth Holmes, and Elizabeth spoke first, "Are you acquiring LB? The parent company of Victoria's Secret? And are you planning to acquire California United Oil from Chevron Oil?"
Abel nodded: "That's right."
These are 10 points normal business behaviors, and it’s nothing to hear by Elizabeth. Moreover, Abel has now decided to let Elizabeth enter the Red Giant and become one of the management teams.
Some business matters.
It's nothing to let her know.
No.
When Abel thought of Elizabeth's powerful management and deception ability, a sudden rise in his heart: Maybe let her know that she would have a better way or not!
He simply told Elizabeth Holmes about his acquisition of California United Petroleum and Lb.
There is still the current progress.
Of course, some private operations and other things will not be said directly.
Abel also asked Elizabeth about her views on these two businesses.
This is a simple test question.
Let’s see if this beautiful cousin is really like the legendary number one female liar with great business capabilities.
Elizabeth pondered for a while.
He spoke softly: "Let me talk about Lb Company first! You just said that you acquired 24 to 25% of their shares, but you encountered the white Knight of a Seattle businessman authorized by Buffett. Actually, I think if you really want Lb Company shares, as long as you are willing to pay, it should not be difficult to get the shares..."
"Oh? How do you say it?"
"Buffett! The key point is Buffett! The white knight turned out to be Buffett's white gloves. As long as Buffett shakes, it will be easy to win this 26% stake!"
"Buffett is a stubborn investor! He is only interested in those steady and stable investments. It just so happens that you have an investment that is very attractive to him... Blue Star Future! If you are willing to exchange shares of Blue Star Future for those Lb companies in his hands, I believe Buffett will be very happy!"
"Then you can absolutely control the shares!"
After listening to her conversation.
Abel couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.
Huh...
It seems that the beautiful cousin in front of me is really a bit of material, and this does not refer to her figure.
But what she said just now.
Use Blue Star’s future equivalent shares to exchange for LB shares with Buffett. Without considering the losses, it is indeed unfavorable.
With a clear understanding that Elizabeth Sherlock Holmes didn't know that she and Buffett had actually reached an agreement, Elizabeth was able to make such a judgment, proving that she did have the ability.
Thinking of this.
Abel stood up directly.
Shake hands gently with your beautiful cousin, "Dear Elizabeth... Welcome to the Red Giant, but your reputation is not very good... In the short term, you can only be the butler behind the scenes! When there is a suitable opportunity, I will let you reappear in front of the world!"
"Extremely happy! My dear brother!"
