Chapter 679: The Helplessness of a Low-key Wealthy Family (5/5, Ask for Subscription)

When John Madden came to Wheelock headquarters, he rarely found that Zhang Yuliang had also come to the company.

"Zhang, is there anything wrong?" John Madden saw Zhang Yuliang's face was very bad, thinking that he was worried about their family's property dispute, and said: "Our Madden family still has a lot of friends in England, if you need ours, we can help you contact some famous British royal barristers!"

John Madden likes his partner very much, Zhang Yuliang does not seek fame, John Madden does not seek fame, such a cooperative partner, if it is replaced by someone else, John Madden does not think that he can still cooperate so tacitly.

Zhang Yuliang had a calm face and said, "Thank you John for your kindness, but this time I came not for the lawsuit." ”

"That's?"

"It's about an acquisition, and I'm hoping to sell Lane Crawford, a subsidiary of Defonda, to Wing Investment!" Zhang Yuliang said fiercely.

Thinking that when he heard the recording of his conversation with Bai Jia yesterday, Zhang Yuliang couldn't wait to find someone to make the man with a scar on his face who represented Rong Le at that time, and he spent a lot of effort to buy Bai Jia, if this recording is published, he will definitely lose the lawsuit of the Zhang family's property dispute, and he may even have to accept the disaster of prison.

But Zhang Yuliang can only think about it, not to mention whether he knows whether there is a copy of this recording, even Rongle is not something he offended.

Zhang Yuliang was puzzled, his secret meeting with Bai Jia can be said to have done the best in secrecy, but now it is still recorded by Rong Le, and how did Rong Le know about his secret meeting with Bai Jia?

This is a mystery, but this mystery is not the most important thing for Zhang Yuliang, the most important thing is how to stop this recording from circulating?

In the end, Zhang Yuliang had no choice but to pinch his nose and listen to the man with the scar on his face tell Rongle's conditions.

When he heard that Rong Le had actually hit the idea of the Federal Building, the International Building, and Wheelock's Lane Crawford Company, he couldn't help but exclaim Rong Le's appetite.

Zhang Yuliang naturally couldn't agree to Rongle's conditions at first, and even said that he would rather lose this lawsuit than agree to Rongle's request.

But the man with the scar on his face said that they were only interested in these three transactions, of course, if Zhang Yuliang did not agree, they didn't care, it was nothing more than that Zhang Yuliang lost the lawsuit, and he would even be charged with obstructing justice.

In the end, Zhang Yuliang had no choice but to agree to Rongle and sell the two properties of the International Building and the Federal Building at a very low price, but since Lane Crawford belonged to Wheelock, Zhang Yuliang needed to submit the transaction to the board meeting of Wheelock for discussion.

The man with the scar on his face agreed.

"What? Are you going to sell Lane Crawford? It's impossible, Mr. Zhang, do you know what the consequences of that are?"

Lane Crawford, as the largest retail department store group in Hong Kong, is one of Wheelock's fist companies, and John Madden naturally disagrees with the sale!

Zhang Yuliang knows that he has suffered and has been pinched by Rong Le, and this matter must be promoted no matter what, otherwise the consequences are not something he can bear.

"Mr. John, as the largest shareholder of Wheelock, this is my authority. Zhang Yuliang's expression was a little hideous.

John Madden saw Zhang Yuliang's expression, and palpitated slightly, in his impression, Zhang Yuliang has always been gentle and elegant, and now this kind of expression has almost never been seen.

"Zhang Sheng, although you are the largest shareholder of Wheelock, the shares you hold in your hands do not reach half of the shares, and this matter must be decided after the board meeting!" Although there are some palpitations Zhang Yuliang's performance, it is impossible for John Madden to give up because of this.

Zhang Yuliang said: "Yes!"

Seeing Zhang Yuliang so resolute, John Madden asked, "Zhang Sheng, can you tell me what kind of conditions Rongle promised you to make you so determined to sell Lane Crawford to him?"

Zhang Yuliang was silent for a long time, can he say this reason? Obviously, he can't ......

John Madden thought for a while, and suddenly said: "Is it because the Luo family's Rod is working in Rongle's company, and he is using this to blackmail you, if you don't agree to him to sell Lane Crawford, he will help the Luo family deal with you? If that's the case, Zhang Sheng, you don't have to worry, although Rongle has some influence, but now Xiangjiang belongs to England after all, if you want, I can use our family's influence to walk around England for you." ”

In any case, Zhang Yuliang is the largest shareholder of Wheelock, and owns 34.8% of Wheelock, and if some directors agree to it at the board meeting, then Lane Crawford may really be approved by the board of directors to sell.

So John Madden still decided to discuss it with Zhang Yuliang in a good voice.

Zhang Yuliang shook his head and said, "It's not what Mr. John thinks, no matter what, I must make this happen!"

Seeing Zhang Yuliang's firm attitude, John Madden scratched his head, what kind of drug did this Rongle give Zhang Yuliang, which made Zhang Yuliang's attitude so firm.

"Could it be that the price given by Rongle is very high?"

"It's not too high, it's 10% higher than the market price!"

"Then why the hell are you?" John Madden was speechless.

Zhang Yuliang has been in Wheelock for many years, although he has not participated in the management, but he still has some allies of his own, although Lane Crawford is one of Wheelock's fist companies, but Wheelock has more than 200 companies under its name at this time, and it is not worth the Lane Crawford family to make money.

And Lane Crawford is not the most profitable real estate company and shipping company, just a department store, in addition to popularity, the annual profit is not too much, so there are still people who agree to sell Lane Crawford.

In particular, Rongle is willing to take out cash to trade, which makes them even more satisfied.

So at the board meeting, the sale of Lane Crawford was finally agreed by more than half of the shares.

At this time, although John Madden, as the Taipan of Wheelock, had a veto power, the situation at this time was the general trend, and if he adopted a veto, he would inevitably offend most of the shareholders, which was definitely not a good thing in the future group decision-making.

And it will also completely offend the Zhang family, if the Zhang family asks to take the position of Wheelock Taipan because of the shares they hold is the largest shareholder of Wheelock, then they will lose even more.

So John Madden had no choice but to pinch his nose and agree to the deal, and notified Rongle's investment to come to negotiate.

Rongle was originally going to put Lane Crawford under Dynasty Land and become a subsidiary of Dynasty Land. But thinking that Dynasty Real Estate needed to be divided into two, in order to make trouble, Lane Crawford directly became a subsidiary of Rong's Investment.

After Rongle got the news, he was naturally very happy, and his retail group added another fierce general!
