Chapter 635: Meeting with Rothel and His Sons (1st Update)
"yes, I see. ”
After listening to Wang Qi's report, Xia Yu thought expressionlessly.
Wang Qi reported to him and went to Dick Keswick and Phil Keswick twice, the latter was fine, but he had been vague, and it was very likely that he wanted to sell at a high price.
On the contrary, it was Dick Keswick, who politely shirked it the first time, and on the second time, he directly and resolutely said that he would not sell the equity in his hand, which is a big contrast.
Wang Qi didn't know the situation, how could Xia Yu, who was always listening to the Keswick family, not know?
Phil Keswick just wants to sell for a high price, and Dick Keswick is completely stubborn, planning to fight him to the end, and is ready to sell the equity to Rothschild & Sons Co., Ltd., causing him trouble, and his heart can be punished!
After the Keswick family hit a wall, Wang Qi then found Rothchild & Sons Co., Ltd. to find out, but the latter proposed to talk to Xia Yu.
Wang Qi, who has no right to call the shots, can only come back and report to Xia Yu.
This abnormal performance made Xia Yu sense that something was wrong, and his intuition told him that where the sudden uncharacteristic acquisition of the U shares of Hongkong Land Group by Rothchild & Sons Co., Ltd. was coming at him.
However, the original equity of the Swire Group and the Kadoorie family is in the hands of each other, and if you want to take the equity in the hands of Dick Keswick, it is best to cooperate with Rothschild & Sons.
So in any case, Xia Yu can't hide from this trip, unless he doesn't want the equity of Hongkong Group.
Moreover, now that he has become the king of Xiangjiang, even if the raptor of the Rothschild family comes across the sea, he has the confidence to tell the other party that in Xiangjiang, even if it is a dragon, he has to coil it for him!
"Wang Qi, you go and tell them, at four o'clock this afternoon, invite them to the Marco Polo Xiangjiang Hotel to talk. ”
After thinking about it, Xia Yu decisively instructed Wang Qi.
No matter what the idea of Rothesmine Father and Son Co., Ltd., he is not afraid, but now that the initiative is on the other side, he is not without reaction.
Didn't the Rothschild father and son want to talk to him personally? Then he directly set the time and place and set up the momentum first.
"Okay chairman, I'll go now. ”
After speaking, Wang Qi immediately went to contact the other party.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, at the Marco Polo Xiangjiang Hotel, in the top box, Xia Yu took Wang Qi to sit down, observing the Rothier father and son sitting opposite, Rothier and his son were also looking at Xia Yu, and Wang Qi was directly ignored by them.
"Mr. Charles, this is the first time we've met, are you disappointed that you've been watching me for so long?"
Xia Yu said with a light smile, looking at Charles Rothschild's eyes as calm as water.
Charles Rothschild was like a kind old man at this time, giving people the intuitive impression of harmlessness to humans and animals, he shook his head with a smile and said: "I've always heard your name, but if you meet officially, this is the first time. ”
"Disappointment is definitely non-existent, to be honest, even if I was prepared in my heart, I was still shocked to see you. ”
The corners of Xia Yu's mouth hooked up a little arc, and he said as if talking to himself: "Oh? I always thought I was ordinary. ”
After speaking, without waiting for his answer, Xia Yu instantly restrained his smile, looked at Charles Rothschild seriously, and said first: "Mr. Charles, let's talk about business first, Wang Qi told me in the morning, I need to talk to you personally, now that I am here, I don't know what advice you have?"
As he spoke, Xia Yu made a gesture of please, and then looked at Charles Rothschild quietly.
He didn't plan to slowly consume with the Rothschild and his son, the initiative was already in the hands of the other party, in order to negotiate in his own favor, he began to create the atmosphere step by step before the Rothesschild arrived on the scene, and now he is even more straight to the point, trying to control the rhythm in his own hands.
Charles Rothschild is also an old man, so he naturally noticed Xia Yu's movements.
He had long known who Xia Yu was, and this time he came to leave a good impression on Xia Yu and pave the way for his short-term and long-term goals, so he pretended not to be aware.
Charles Rothschild said with a smile: "Mr. Xia, the main reason for asking you to meet is actually to get to know you. ”
"We also thought that Hongkong Land was undervalued, so we made a plan to buy Hongkong Land, and we had no intention of selling the equity of Hongkong Land. ”
"Who knew that Hongkong Land Group was so attractive, not only we took a fancy to it, but even you, Bao Yugang and Huo Yingdong, and you opened a huge gap with us, which cast a shadow on our company's acquisition plan. ”
Hearing this, looking at Charles Rothschild's sincere expression, Xia Yu sneered in his heart, he could judge that what Charles Rothschild said was a scene of increasing his dominant position, and there was really no word!
By saying this, he is nothing more than to increase the initiative and increase the bargaining chips for the next formal negotiations.
But Xia Yu won't let him get his way.
"Oh, Mr. Charles, this is so surprising to me, I always thought that Rothschild & Sons Co., Ltd. was only engaged in mergers and acquisitions consulting and investment, when did your company open up the business of management and operation?"
Xia Yu asked suspiciously, just the playful smile on his face and Nuo Yu's tone reminded Charles Rothchild, I'm not stupid, you can't fool me.
But many times, people just pretend to be confused, anyway, as long as there is no evidence, just blow the atmosphere all over the sky, Charles Rothschild seems to be unaware, and said with a smile: "The company has just adjusted its strategic positioning, and Hongkong Land Group is the target of testing the waters of the new business, but unfortunately it is obvious that when we meet you, our strategy is in trouble." ”
"Mr. Charles, you think too highly of me, there is still some time before the winner is decided, your company may wish to continue, maybe the Hongkong Land Group will belong to you in the end. ”
After Xia Yu finished speaking, he picked up the teacup and blew on the heat dissipation and took a sip.
Xia Yu's attitude made Sean Rothess frown, ignoring his father's order to tell him to talk less and think more when he came, and directly interjected: "Mr. Xia, it turns out that your attitude of begging people is so bad, we will see you in the mall, I think you will see a surprise." ”
Xia Yu raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Sean Rothschild with a meaningful smile and said, "Then I'm looking forward to it!"
Charles Rothschild frowned slightly, and gave his son a reminding look to stop him from continuing to speak, his son was still too young to hold his breath, and he was stimulated by Xia Yu, and he interjected rashly, not only did not take advantage, but broke the favorable situation that he had managed to maintain.
He's not here to clash with Xia Yu!
Charles Rothschild sighed secretly, understanding that it was useless to play with Xia Yu.
He knew the family's plans, and it was a time-consuming and labor-intensive long-term job to calculate a person like Xia Yu who was highly vigilant and covered in thorns.
The first is to lower Xia Yu's vigilance, it is best to become good friends with him, to help him slowly intervene in his career, and finally when Xia Yu loses his vigilance, find an opportunity to kill him with one blow and take his career over.
In the years since the rise of the Rothier family, I have met many people similar to Xia Yu, and in the end, they did not die out one by one, and became the nourishment for the rise of the Rothier family.
Only this time, it is destined that the Rothier family will miscalculate, because they are calculating a reborn who knows them well and clearly knows their vicious nature.
Charles Rothschild said loudly: "Mr. Xia, my son has been in a bad mood for the past two days, and his thinking will inevitably go to extremes, please forgive me." ”
After apologizing, the atmosphere eased, Xia Yu shook his head and said with a smile that he didn't care.
Then Charles Rothschild continued: "Mr. Xia, you have a great advantage, if you compete head-on, we have little chance of winning, you Chinese have a word called 'harmony and wealth', I like this word very much, so now I am here." ”
"It's okay to transfer the equity to you, as long as your price is reasonable. ”
