After talking to the Shihuaia family and the heads of several local families, Thatcher was very angry, and when asked if they were willing to buy 50% of the shares of the telecom group for $1.6 billion, the big families began to shirk and said that they would go back and think about it.

Jokes aside, the British economy is already in crisis, and their family business is not doing well, where did they come up with $1.6 billion in cash. This time, they also hope that the Li Group will have more blood in this acquisition, and they have no intention of taking over the group.

This telecommunications group also understands that this time it is not enough to just acquire shares, if you want to operate well, you still need to invest a sum of money in it, and it is not enough, they estimate that they will have to invest at least 300 million US dollars in it, which is enough to make them shy away from this.

The family could not have dragged themselves to Swire for the sake of a subsidiary of Heung Kong, and they did not have the strength to take over the shares of the telecommunications group.

Thatcher said angrily: "Since you have no intention of buying, why do you want to enter the competition of the telecom group." Now that the Lee Group has given up on the plan to acquire the Telecom Group, it is up to you to take over. ”

The heads of several major families quit on the spot, and one of them said: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, you can't force you to buy and sell, the price we offer is not higher than that of the Li Group, no matter how it is arranged, it should not be our acquisition." ”

"Didn't you want the telecommunications group to consider that you are natives? Didn't you say that the acquisition of the Li Group would pose a threat to our country's information security? Now that you are allowed to buy it, why do you start to push back and obstruct it? Thatcher said.

In the face of the angry Thatcher, these few did not reply immediately, they knew that replying at this time would only add fuel to the fire, unless they were willing to eat the telecom group.

If the major families really have a heart, they still have the ability to take the shares of the telecom group, but they are not optimistic about the short-term profits of the telecom group, and they do not want to put huge amounts of money on this group.

Thatcher knew that if these people didn't take the telecom group, she had no way to take them, after all, they didn't sign a contract, they were just talking about intentions, and the most important thing was that these bids were not higher than the Li Group, forcing the Li Group to raise the purchase price again and again.

Obviously, the Li Group doesn't plan to play with everyone anymore, these people are really fools to think of the Li Group. Now Du Yuemei is obviously going to flip the table, the telecom group Li Group doesn't want it, the airline approves it or not, and the Li Group has an indifferent attitude.

The key is that she received the news that the Lee Group is already the second largest shareholder of Swire Pacific Limited, which means that in Cathay Pacific, the Lee Group can also make a lot of money.

In terms of shares, the Lee Group, the Swire Group and HSBC are the three largest shareholders of Cathay Pacific, and it is really possible that the Lee Group will no longer think about setting up an airline.

Du Yuemei flipped the table, and if these people did not take over the telecom group, their plan would be aborted, which would be a huge blow to the government she led.

Seeing that several people were silent, Thatcher said again: "What kind of behavior are you, people come to buy and threaten our national security, you want to intervene, and now people don't buy it, you don't take over, what do you think of our government?"

Jeff Shihuaiya said: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, we are also for the good of the country, think about it, if the Lee Group takes control of the Telecom Group, how can our country's information security be guaranteed, I think it is better for the government to continue to hold such an important enterprise of the Telecom Group, so that the citizens can rest assured." ”

Thatcher became even more angry when she heard this, isn't this the theory of the Labour Party? If you operate in this way, what else will you reform, and watch the British economy gradually sink. And even if the telecom group is privatized, the government will supervise it, can it really let the Li group do whatever it wants?

Thatcher said: "Don't find those reasons to deal with me, I heard a lot of these words when I was running for prime minister, these words are useless to me, I will continue to promote the privatization of public enterprises, promote the vitality of the British economy, and promote the development of the British economy." Now I will ask you whether you will take over the telecom group or not. ”

After thinking for a while, several major families are still reluctant to take over the telecom group, they have so much cash to invest in some other industries casually, which is better than this telecom group.

Thatcher said: "Your behavior has seriously disrupted our economic market, and I don't want you to be there in the process of privatizing local state-owned enterprises in the future, and our government will directly disqualify you from buying." ”

After hearing this, these big families immediately panicked, the government has a lot of enterprises in their favor, and they hope to be able to get a piece of the pie in the future, but they are cut off because of this, and they are unwilling.

One of the heads of the family said: "Your Excellency Prime Minister, according to business, it is not us who violates the rules, this is the problem of the top management of the telecom group, our bid has never been higher than the Li consortium, but the top management is unwilling to trade to the Li consortium, and sit and wait for the Li consortium to raise the price, which is a typical violation of business ethics." ”

What can Thatcher say, she herself hopes that the higher the price offered by the Li consortium, the better, and the top management of the telecom group has the same idea as her, which is why this situation occurs.

It's just that she didn't expect Du Yuemei to flip the table, she originally thought that the Li consortium was determined to win the airline, and it didn't matter if she spent a little more money, and the acquisition of Cathay Pacific was blocked, so they should be more anxious. The result was exactly the opposite of what they thought, and the Lee Group clearly told the British government this time that they didn't plan to play anymore, and the airlines could be built if they could, and if they couldn't, they would forget it.

This time, not only these big families messed up, but even Thatcher was the same. The failure of the privatization of the telecommunications group this time is very detrimental to her future reforms, especially in the introduction of foreign capital.

The negotiations of the Li consortium in the telecom group are not confidential, and there are many news reports that if the Li family does not acquire, and these big families do not take over the flowers. The feeling for foreign capital is that these big families were arranged by the British government to raise the purchase price, and who else is willing to invest in their British side, which is a great blow to the credibility of the government.

Thatcher didn't say anything more to the heads of the family, and asked the staff to send them away, while she herself was thinking about how to deal with the next problem.

Now that the British economy has reached the point where it has to be reformed, many state-owned enterprises have become a burden to the government, and the government still needs to invest funds every year to maintain their operation, which has brought considerable pressure to the government's finances.

In the Jaguar test has achieved quite good results, now Coventry City car matching company relying on the Bentley Group, have a good performance, conducive to the economic development of Coventry City, Du Yuemei was awarded the honorary title of life by Coventry City in July, in recognition of her contribution to the city of Coventry led by the Bentley Group.
