Chapter 1315: I'm just going to hang you, what?
To be honest, if he could, Andy would never want to do anything with Vivendi, a company that is not only greedy and has a very bad reputation in the industry, well, it should be said that it is notorious, and it is also a good teammate.
Vivendi is a French multinational media group with operations in music, television, film, publishing, telecommunications, internet and video games.
The water company has established a new strategy for growth and growth, and after the acquisition, it has acquired everything from the water industry to later TV stations, print media, game companies, etc., almost without being picky. And this kind of violent acquisition method is still used today.
The reason why they have a bad reputation is because they treat the acquired companies ruthlessly, which can basically be summed up in the process of "acquisition, restructuring, value extraction, and sale", so the companies acquired by Vivendi have ended up very miserably.
In the past, Vivendi has scooped companies such as Universal Cinema, Blizzard, Activision, and Snow Mountain. Xuele Mountain has been completely played to death, and Activision also merged with Vivendi's game division in December last year to become a brand new subsidiary, and I heard that Activision people have begun to have serious disagreements with Vivendi's people.
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, the relationship between Andy and Vivendi is really cut, you must know that Andy also has an album contract with Universal Music, and Universal Music is a subsidiary of Vivendi...
No, NBCUniversal hasn't been negotiated yet, so Renault has hit the idea of his mocking bird game company, hoping to acquire or merge.
"Huh. Andy looked at Renault, who made the suggestion, with a smile on his face, ignoring the other party's stubble, Andy knew that Vivendi had made huge gains through Yamaguchiyama and had almost paranoid ambitions for the promising game industry.
As Andy's cash NAI cow, unless Andy is crazy, people will get a piece of the pie from his mockingjay game company, let alone outsiders, even if it is some management of mockingjay game company, Andy will strictly control the equity incentive plan, and it will definitely not exceed the number of shareholders who must be listed.
"Jean, what I bring is the greatest sincerity, I also know that your negotiations with GE have not stopped, however, GE will not be unable to come up with money to pay you, if the merger is not completed, they will not be able to lend money from the bank, to put it bluntly, as long as I do not make concessions, this is a dead loop, everyone can only sit at the negotiation table and waste saliva. ”
Andy raised his hand and drank the champagne from the glass, looking at the endless traffic lights on the road outside the window with deep eyes, the corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a mocking smile.
"There are too many self-righteous people in the world, and GM thinks that I will be forced to compromise in order to complete the merger and build a new media empire.
Hehe, billions of debts, I don't understand where they got the confidence to think that I have to buy?
No matter what the outcome of this trip to Paris is, if GE continues to procrastinate, I will have no choice but to give up the acquisition of NBCUniversal.
My pinnacle and AMC TV are doing very well after all, time is not an issue for me, and I have patience beyond my years. ”
Hearing Andy's almost ultimatum words, Renault's complexion changed slightly, which was originally calm and calm, and he looked at Andy's incomparably bright eyes with a smile that seemed to be not smiling, and saw a trace of coldness in the other party's eyes.
"Huh. Let Renault laugh dryly again, for Andy's coercion, they Vivendi is not too dangerous, although it will also have some impact, causing the stock to fall, but General Electric must be completely sad, if it were not for this merger and acquisition negotiation support point, GE's stock price would have fallen below $3 a year ago.
I have to say that the young man in front of him chose the timing is simply too bad. Looking at the handsome side face with the corners of Andy's mouth upturned, Renault suddenly felt a chill rise from his heart, and his pupils shrank slightly.
Nima, this kid wasn't going to pit GE from the beginning, was he!?
"Andy, don't worry, after all, it is a merger worth tens of billions of assets, and the negotiation is to solve one problem at a time, how can a consensus be reached at once, however, the purchase price of 4.2 billion, I really can't be the master, it is about the floating of 200 million US dollars, and the board of directors must be convened to vote on it. ”
Let Renault perceive that this young man has signs of going to the death of General Electric, and decided to let his company climb out of the pit first, no matter what, cancel the merger plan, their Vivendi company will be implicated and hurt, and now the global financial market is already shrouded in unimaginable panic, any wind and grass, may trigger a tsunami effect, and the stock price plummets.
"I understand, I will stay in Paris for two days, fly to London on Saturday, and whatever the outcome of next Monday, if there is still no progress in the negotiations, I will notify the outside world and terminate the merger and acquisition negotiations with GE!" Andy smiled, but the cold look in his eyes reminded Renault of all the materials he had read about the young man in front of him.
The two words mentioned most in the information are 'ruthless' and 'decisive', and now it seems that this is indeed the case, thinking of his other big short title, Renault is even more sure that this young man has been holding back his big moves, ready to entertain General Electric!
November 17th...
After attending the reception, Renault looked solemn, sat in the car with some frowns and read the date, really couldn't think of anything special, picked up the phone and called his secretary, asking him to check what was special next Monday.
After hanging up the phone, Renault began to think about Andy's offer, the price of $4.2 billion, he didn't want to accept it, for Vivendi, squeezing the greatest benefits, is their consistent style, a group of greedy shareholders who have long been acquired by various violent acquisitions, and the huge benefits brought by the split may be difficult to accept this offer of $200 million less.
"Buzz—"
Hearing the mobile phone ringing, let Renault pick it up and connect it, and heard what the secretary said on the phone, his face became more and more ugly.
"Next Monday, major countries around the world will release the latest economic data, as well as the rescue effect and future economic outlook after a series of stimulus measures have been introduced. ”
"Putain!"
Let Renault's face turn pale, he can see that Andy Smith is a planned, premeditated calculation of all this, you know, since November, the reason why the global stock market is falling, the most critical factor is that the impact of the international financial crisis on the real economy has gradually emerged, and the response goals of the world's major economies have also shifted from the previous main focus on the financial market to saving the real economy, launching a thrilling rescue.
Almost most of the world's media are pessimistic about the financial turmoil, let's say Europe, and the most common newspaper appearance is that the eurozone has entered its first recession since its birth.
He can imagine that once the data and content released on Monday are not optimistic, the world will usher in Black Monday again, if Andy Smith announces the termination of merger and acquisition negotiations again...
Hiss –
Renault felt bad for the whole person, and Vivendi's stock price also benefited a lot from the negotiation of this merger and acquisition deal, and if it was an ordinary day, there might be some small declines, or no impact at all.
But if it is really as Andy Smith expected, after he implements the plan, they will receive a lot of BO and I am afraid that it will not be small! As for General Electric, hehe, the stock may be directly suppressed to $1, so that Renault does not believe that Andy Smith, the big bear, is not prepared to entertain General Electric.
"Let the company's investment department pay attention to GE stock and go short... ”
Hanging up the phone, Renault squinted slightly, frowned, touched his chin and pondered, but finally shook his head and sighed lightly, Andy Smith is crushing with the general momentum, and he doesn't care about letting them know his plan at all, because even if he knows, Vivendi has no way to get out of the whirlpool, the initiative is completely in the hands of Andy Smith, maybe he also prepared a plan to short Vivendi, the timing of the choice and the use of market panic psychology, so that the opponent has no power to fight back!
