Chapter 0578 The Biggest M&A of the 20th Century
The next day, Manhattan, Rockefeller Manor.
The meeting between Li Zitao and Little John was noon, and the maid prepared exquisite food.
"Charlie, congratulations on your new discovery!" said little John with a glass of envy, "Look at you, future oil king." ”
"The oil king doesn't just mean the amount of oil. Li Zitao put down his wine glass and mentioned the cooperation with Mobil.
"Charlie, have you ever thought about mergers?" said John Jr. suddenly.
"What?" Li Zitao thought he had misheard, M&A, and Mobil?
"You heard it right, it's a merger!" John Jr. had always had this idea, he was already old, his health was deteriorating, and he didn't have many years left.
It is difficult to say whether the successor he selected, David, can maintain this friendship with Li Zitao.
Even if the relationship between the two families can be maintained, can they make the other party give up the interests they have in hand and maintain the so-called face of Rockefeller?
Li Zitao's rise is unstoppable, and he has completely gained the upper hand in crude oil reserves alone.
As cooperation will eventually outlaw the status of the oil sister, and rejecting him is the wrong choice.
Some people want to cooperate with him, and Li Zitao can think of Mobil first, which is enough to make Little John happy.
After thinking about it, John Jr. felt that the best way to do it was to merge and acquisition.
Now it seems that Mobil is even more at a loss, and its brand and sales network alone have a market share that is not comparable to that of Standard Oil of Alaska.
But John Jr. is more interested in the future, and don't forget that Li Zitao also holds the survey and collection rights of the two emirates.
And he also has a 15 percent stake in Gulf Oil, which is Royal Dutch Shell and BP.
If the three parties reach a cooperation, the global oil market will be shaken.
"M&A. This time it was Li Zitao's turn to think about it, he hadn't thought about mergers and acquisitions before he came.
If you think about it, mergers and acquisitions are good for both parties.
With direct access to advanced technology, brand promotion and huge market share, Mobil does not need to worry about crude oil, and its brand competitiveness is stronger.
"I agree to the merger and acquisition, Mobil's equity structure?" Li Zitao agreed, and he had to know what kind of benefits he should win for himself.
"There are 11 shareholders in Mobil, including Wall Street Global Advisors, Columbia Management, Wealth Management, North Trust Company, JP. Morgan, Wellington ......" John Jr. told him.
These companies are well-known investment and financial institutions in North America and even in the world, but they own only 23% of the shares.
The rest is in the hands of the Rockefeller family heirs, who have absolute voting rights at shareholder meetings.
"What do you think about the valuation of the two companies, find a third-party appraisal agency to do it?"
"Good. Li Zitao is the same, he decided not to drag the mud and water.
Barclays Bank, founded in 1862, is the largest banking institution in the United Kingdom.
In order to ensure that the cooperation between the two parties is progressing smoothly, no news will be disclosed to the outside world before the official merger and acquisition begins.
The Ministry of Supervision directly issued a gag order to Alaska Standard Oil, who dares to leak a word to the outside world, pack up their things and get out.
If the acquisition of Standard Oil of Alaska and Mobil Standard Oil is successful, it will be the largest acquisition of the 20th century.
Barclays Group, which received the commission, moved quickly, and entered North America in three batches with a total of 200 people, responsible for evaluating the assets of both parties and later mergers and acquisitions.
Barclays attaches great importance to receiving such a large business, and both parties are important giants in North America, so they cannot take it lightly.
If you mess up this business, it is tantamount to self-destruction of the signboard, and who will dare to use them in the future.
After communicating happily with Little John, Li Zitao moved into Juliana's apartment and kept her out of bed for several days.
The people at Wells Fargo were wondering why the Queen had suddenly taken a vacation, and it was still a few days off, which was not her style.
As everyone knows, he was pressed on the bed by the big demon king, and he was encouraged by continuous piling, and he couldn't get out of bed directly.
"What the hell have you been up to lately?" asked Juliana, looking at his back while eating fruit on the bed.
"About the oil companies. Li Zitao is waiting for Barclays to officially take over, and then he should go back, and it will take at least 3~6 months before and after this merger and acquisition.
"Forgot to congratulate you. Juliana thought that he was talking about the oil in Oman, and the news had already been published in major newspapers and magazines.
The stalk of 'Lucky Charlie' was taken out again, and the words were full of envy.
"Thank you, how are you doing?" Li Zitao changed the subject.
"The matter of the elders needs to wait a little longer, but with the approval of the family, the network that could not be used has come to life again... It's realistic!"
Juliana said sarcastically, she was still pretending to be kind to her in the front, and refused to help at all, but immediately changed her face and took the initiative to call.
"Aren't you realistic?" Li Zitao put down the documents in hand, climbed onto the bed and stroked her white fat stiffness, and said lightly.
"Don't move, can you act like a normal person?" Juliana slapped his hand away with a crossbrow.
"Normal people?" Li Zitao grinned, turned over and pressed her underneath and smiled: "If you are a normal person, I'm afraid you won't even have time to eat fruit." ”
"Bastard, don't want me to bathe you again...", a choked voice sounded, and Juliana rolled her eyes, full of helplessness at this love-hate bastard.
......
......
When I went back to Los Angeles, it was already half a month later.
"Ha, our man of the year is back. When he appeared in the dormitory again, Li Zitao received Rocky's taunt.
"What kind of person?" Li Zitao asked in surprise.
"Of course it's a leave, don't you know that you're already famous in school?" Like Li Zitao, who asks for 8 months a year, is definitely the only one in history.
Everyone is discussing what he is doing to make the school board open up to this, without even saying anything.
"I'm busy with work!" Knowing that because of this, Li Zitao couldn't cry or laugh.
"It's okay, they don't know you anyway, they only know that you're a Chinese student. After the joke, Rocky explained with a smile.
"This won't affect me, how are you doing?" Seeing that he looked good, Li Zitao guessed whether he was encouraged by love.
"Academically it was going well, then it was work, and the occasional date. Rocky spread his hands indifferently.
For Van Biang, he is no longer in a hurry now, since she said that she wants to get married, then follow the pace of marriage.
As long as she doesn't add some green to her head, a colder Rocky is acceptable.
