Chapter 509: The Great Enemy

"Mr. Wang is here this time, what other places can this exchange serve?" Of course, Wang Luo didn't come to the stock exchange to visit, obviously there were other purposes, Jack asked triedly.

"I am interested in increasing my stake in Daimler Group, can you help me in this regard? For example, in the information you have about Daimler's shareholders, is anyone willing to sell their shares?" Wang Luo said calmly.

The New York Stock Exchange holds all kinds of precious information that ordinary people do not know about the equity distribution system of world-renowned enterprises. Wang Luo wants to continue to increase his stake in Daimler, and it is indeed quite appropriate to come here. And the implicit meaning of his words is that he wants the New York Stock Exchange to play the role of an intermediary in this matter, and with the resources at their disposal, it is indeed very suitable to be this intermediary.

As soon as Wang Luo's words came out, Jack Bean showed a deep groan, and did not rush to respond, but startled Shu Jing on the side.

She also just knew that Wang Luo already had a lot of Daimler shares in his hands, and if he counted the part held by Heishui, Wang Luo's upcoming Daimler shares would exceed 2.7%, approaching 3%.

At this time, Shu Jing, like Waltley last night, had a big question, where did Wang Luo get the funds?

It should be known that the acquisition of nearly 3% of Daim's shares will cost $1.5 billion, at least.

With such a huge amount of money, even if Wang Luo's ability to collect money is strong, it will take time, and he should not have the ability to mobilize such a large amount of money anyway. What is particularly surprising is that the acquisition of nearly 3% of Daimler's equity cannot satisfy Wang Luo's appetite.

He opened his mouth to ask Jackby, and revealed his intention to continue to acquire Daimler shares, so how on earth is he going to solve the financial problem?!

In addition to his own accumulated income from the stock market and the financing provided to him by Su Yan, Wang Luo also discussed with Su Yan about the acquisition of Daimler shares, and finally he submitted a plan application for a feasible plan and submitted it to Helvar, taking the cooperative financing channel of Helvar.

In other words, some of the funds are provided by DLA Piper, so Wang Luo has enough money at his disposal to support his expected acquisition of between 4 and 8 percent of Daimler's shares.

Jackbee thought about it for a while before he said, "We can try to contact the channel of acquiring Daimler's shares, but the matter itself is very complicated. Compared with the size of a group like Daimler, Mr. Wang, the proportion of shares you personally hold now (Jack knows the approximate share of Daimler through Wang Luo's past trading records in the stock market) is already very amazing. If you want to continue to increase your holdings, it is unlikely that you will continue to acquire them in your own name, are you prepared for this?"

What Jackbee means is that Daimler itself will not allow individuals to hold more than 3% of the company's shareholding in Daimler for the sake of the stability of the company's shareholding structure, prevent potential hostile mergers and acquisitions, and disrupt the company's normal business order, which is related to Daimler's existing shareholding system.

At the end of March 09, the Abu Dhabi Sovereign Fund of the United Arab Emirates spent 1.95 billion euros to buy 9.1% of Daimler's shares, becoming the largest single shareholder of Daimler. By October '12, 68.8% of Daimler's shares were held by institutional investors. This includes banks, insurance companies, investment trusts, etc., and also covers the 9.1% held by the Abu Dhabi Investment Fund, which is also held by Blackwater;

Daimler also has a 20.5 percent stake, which is spread across a number of private investors.

the other 7.6% is held by the Government of Kuwait;

Renault and Nissan hold a total of 3.8%, and in this case, Wang Luo's current private hoarding of Daimler shares is approaching 2% (not counting all the part of Blackwater), which is indeed a very large share.

In this case, Wang Luo also wants to continue to increase his holdings in his own name, which will inevitably affect Daim's existing equity structure, which will induce a series of problems, and is unlikely to be successfully implemented. So Jack Bi questioned and asked Wang Luo if he had considered this issue if he continued to increase his holdings.

Wang Luo took a moment to say: "If I can continue to increase my holdings, it will not be in my personal name." I will set up a foundation, including famous investment banks such as DLA Piper, to hold shares in Daimler. ”

Jack said with relief: "Since Mr. Wang has been prepared, there is no problem." ”

"The founders of the Daimler Group are Gottlieb Daimler, Wilhelm Maybach, Karl Benz and others. As far as I know, most of the people who hold private shares in Daimler are concentrated in the above big families, and if done properly, they can probably squeeze 1% to 1.3% of the share acquisition space out of them. We and I are happy to help you act as an intermediary, but it will take a while to communicate and give you an accurate reply. ”

Wang Luo agreed: "Don't worry, you have news, just notify me, and then we will talk about the next step." ”

When Wang Luo left the New York Stock Exchange, it was already noon.

Shu Jing's mood recovered slightly after a morning of buffering, muttering about what he had experienced in the past two days, and then glanced at Wang Luo, who was walking in front of Fang Xiaohu, and thought: Look at the Mercedes-Benz and Jeep and other brands of cars on the street, think about the shares he holds in Daimler, the parent company of these car companies, if he is one of the bosses of these companies, it is really surprising. He's still studying at the University of Tokyo......

When the group returned to the villa on the top of the mountain, Wang Luo had no time to rest, and immediately prepared to fly to Chicago to go to the headquarters of the armored organization.

Fang Xiaohu came to New York this time, in addition to participating in the opening performance of the concert, he also had other arrangements, and he would not go to Chicago with Wang Luo.

Before Wang Luo left, he refused Koeman, and Fat Ball, Luo Jinbei and others followed, first, everyone was somewhat injured in the fierce battle last night, so there was no need to follow him. In addition, the people of the Scorpion Tail team are still detained in the basement of the villa, and they can't be guarded against, so they can't leave too few people here.

So Wang Luo refused to be accompanied by others, and took his assistants Qiao Xiaoqiao and Shu Jing, and Barrow was the only bodyguard, and boarded the plane to Chicago.

From New York to Chicago, the whole journey took about two hours and 20 minutes, and an armored organization was responsible for receiving them as soon as they got off the plane. Wang Luo came to the armored headquarters at half past three in the afternoon, and the whole visit lasted nearly three hours.

In the evening, accompanied by the top level of the armored organization, they had a dinner party.

When the dinner was over, Wang Luo didn't stay in Chicago for long, booked a flight at night, and returned to New York overnight.

On the whole, the process of visiting the headquarters of the armored organization was quite business-like, and the process was very smooth and there was no delay.

Wang Luo returned to New York, just after midnight.

And at the same time that the plane landed and Wang Luo returned to New York, a little far from his residence in New York, the hilltop villa, on the observation deck where there had been a fierce battle last night, a man walked slowly in the night, and looked at the villa where Fang Xiaohu and others were waiting for Wang Luo to come back.

If Wang Luo is here, he will definitely recognize that this person is a life master!
