These days, it's a nightmare for those who have bought shares in Samsung Group. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

Originally, when the major subsidiaries of Samsung Group released their fiscal year estimates for the first half and third quarters in July, investors were generally optimistic about the future of Samsung Group, and major investment institutions also adjusted the number of Samsung shares in their hands, and more or less chose to increase their holdings.

In the first quarter of 2007, Samsung Electronics, a subsidiary of Samsung Group, reported a net profit of $1.72 billion, down 15 percent from the same period in the first quarter of 2006, but its market share and global sales increased by 3.1 percent.

Although in the second quarter of May and June, Samsung Electronics briefly suffered from the technical challenge from Huaguo Pengcheng Orange Technology Group, but the latter is still only a start-up after all, although its technology surpasses Samsung, but it does not have the strength to put the technology into the market immediately, and investors do not believe that Samsung Group will weaken in the near future.

Therefore, in the third quarter of the second half of the year, Wall Street in the United States is still optimistic about the future of Samsung Group, and several nine analysts of the Dow Jones index agree that Samsung's net profit in the third quarter of the second half of the year will be around 2 trillion won, and the net profit for the whole year will be more than 7.6 billion US dollars.

However, the situation has changed suddenly, and Samsung Group, which was originally very important in the South Korean economy, and it is no exaggeration to say that it will make the entire South Korean economic circle tremble with a sneeze, suddenly appeared a huge scandal.

The 26 senior executives of the group were collectively investigated, and from the company's chairman Li Jianxi himself, the president, vice president, and even the heads of the major subsidiaries were all arrested.

No one would have thought that such a superbloc, which accounts for a quarter of a country's GDP, would collapse in a short period of time.

If at the beginning, it was only the management of Samsung Group that was investigated, and some investment and investment banks and analysis companies were lucky, and even increased their holdings of Samsung shares in private for a time.

After all, the economic status of Samsung Group in South Korea determines that the South Korean government will definitely not easily watch it slide or even go bankrupt, and now private investors in the entire market are almost frantically selling their Samsung shares, from the highest point of 86,200 points, to 80,000, 70,000, 60,000......

In just a few days, the behemoth with a market value of tens of trillions of won has shrunk by as much as half of its shares in circulation, and the remaining half is also waiting and seeing.

However, with the sudden collapse of the Cheong Wa Dae Roh Moo-hyun government, the whole world was instantly shaken, and everyone knew that this time, the Samsung Group was in a catastrophe, and Roh Moo-hyun, as its ally, was impeached and dismissed, so Samsung no longer had the ability to resurrect from the dead.

In the following days, the shares of all subsidiaries of the Samsung Group plummeted wildly, once falling below 20,000 won per share, which seems to be not the lowest point, because the entire market, including those large investment banks, is selling their stocks, they are like a lit bomb in their hands, scrambling to throw them out, for fear that it will explode in their hands too late.

The sharp fall in the stock market has also affected the global securities market, Samsung Group, as a world-renowned multinational company, has its own sales network and subsidiaries in more than 80 countries and regions around the world, and this collapse has even caused the US stock market, the European stock market and the stock market in Tokyo, Hong Kong and other places to fall.

South Korea's Seoul stock market has continued to fall to the limit, and all Samsung-related industries are all red (foreign declines are red, rises are green, and domestic vice versa.) οΌ‰

It's just that no one notices that, in private, the huge amount of money mobilized by multinational consortia is quietly being transferred from the securities market to the stock market.

This includes the funds of several major South Korean conglomerates, with a total size of more than $50 billion.

At the Seoul Stock Exchange, in a special investment bank office area, Li Mubai, who had been busy for a few days, rushed here to meet with Choi Tae-won, Gu Ben-mao, and several financial practitioners he had transferred from Huaguo, who had been staying here.

"Can the funds we prepared enter the market?" Although Li Mubai does not know much about the inside story of stock and securities trading, he also knows that such a large-scale early entry has essentially touched the bottom line of the financial law, that is, insider trading.

But who can judge them, and any one of them here has a pivotal position in South Korea, and even has the power to oust the president from power, and this is the great charm of money and wealth, and everyone is intoxicated by it.

Choi Tae-won nodded, with fanatical excitement on his face, he pulled his collar, "Mr. Li, we are ready, from the securities market, we have reaped a total of 8 billion US dollars in profits, and now the scale of available funds, more than 18 billion US dollars of total funds, can completely eat the entire Samsung Group." ”

It is impossible not to be excited about Choi Tae-won, this operation, the South Korean group and the American consortium are carried out separately, including Choi Tae-won himself, gathered the funds of Lee Mubai, Goo Ben-mao, Lee Meng-hee and Lee Jae-hyun and his son, and mobilized a total of about 10 billion US dollars in principal, and through more than half a month of fighting, the profit obtained exceeded 8 billion US dollars, which is almost comparable to grabbing money.

As for how many companies have gone bankrupt, how many investment banks have failed, and how many people have jumped off the rooftop, it has nothing to do with the capitalists.

Although Li Mubai said that he made the least investment among the four, according to the proportion in advance, he would have made more than $2.4 billion in profits from the $8 billion.

On the other hand, the U.S. consortium has mobilized about $18 billion to $22 billion in principal, eating the largest piece of fat in the capital market, and the scale of profits it earns far exceeds that of the South Korean consortium, and correspondingly, about 8% of that part of the profits will eventually go to Li Mubai's name, which will be used to invest in the company and obtain the position of its largest private shareholder.

Now is the time of the second wave of harvesting, the stock of Samsung Group has fallen below four times, if you start at this time, as long as you can take over, the Samsung Group will develop to the scale before today, then anyone present can harvest a hen that will lay golden eggs, even if you do not participate in the operation of the sale, you can also obtain more than 300% of the super high profits.

As the old saying goes, no one does the business of losing money, and the business of killing the head is rushed, and in the face of huge profits, whether it is Choi Tae-won or Gu Ben-mao, they are all a little impatient, because they suddenly found that the Lee Kun-hee family of the Samsung Group is finished!

Now, Li Mubai's role, it seems, is not so important, if according to the previous plan, Li Mubai contributed less than one-sixth, but to account for 30% of the profits, which is completely unacceptable blackmail in the eyes of people with a heart, they seem to have forgotten Li Mubai's contribution at the beginning.

If it weren't for the key evidence he provided, then they would still be in a tug-of-war with Lee Kun-hee's Samsung Group, not to mention a profit of $8 billion, not even $800 million, and even if they didn't lose money.

But people are always forgetful, especially in the face of green bills that are often calculated in billions of dollars, not to mention any ethics and conscience, and many of them would even rather take their conscience to feed their dogs for the sake of money, than give others a superfluous penny.

However, Li Mubai will not leave the game in advance without any preparation, how can he give the South Korean consortium and the American consortium the opportunity to turn around and play tricks.

Almost at the same time, the following news appeared on the TV hanging on the wall of the office area.

The content of the news was very short and not much, but every word surprised those present.

Li Mengxi in the news picture was full of energy, waving a conspicuous authorization document in his hand, and at the same time said loudly in his mouth, " I am the legal heir of the Samsung Group, Lee Kun-hee is a liar, he sought the inheritance left to me by his father, this is the biggest insult to me, but also the biggest violation of the country's laws, in the past 20 years, I have suffered humiliation, but this liar is enjoying the inheritance that should belong to me; now I announce that I have officially filed a lawsuit with the court in Seoul, South Korea, to take back the Samsung Group that should belong to me, these are all the original estate authorizations left by my father, you can see, my name is clearly written on it……”

For a while, the contents of these estate authorization documents and share transfer documents were clearly transmitted to the world through TV screens, of course, including some conspirators in the shadows, who were instantly dumbfounded after seeing this scene.

Because once the South Korean government determines that Lee Meng-hee is the legal successor of the Samsung Group, then their original plan against the Samsung Group will be at risk of failure, because a new Samsung interest alliance will take shape in an instant, and the South Korean government, which is unwilling to sit idly by and watch the collapse of the Samsung Group, thereby affecting the economic development of South Korea, will also come forward to rescue and help as soon as possible.

At that point, as long as the South Korean government is willing to lose its credit, it is entirely possible that a temporary financial law will be introduced to prohibit foreign investors from trading Samsung shares at this time, and Samsung Group will be fully authorized to contribute its own capital to make a mandatory purchase of Samsung's outstanding shares in the stock market at market prices.

Once it gets to that point, all speculators will miss this feast of carving up Samsung's high-quality industries.

"This, Mr. Lee. The thought of the whole thing behind it made Choi Tae-won and Goo Ben-mao panic, and they even forgot what kind of orders to give to the traders who were staring at them.

Everyone knows that there must be strong support from Li Mubai behind this, such a guy with great magical powers, who can easily get all the top-secret information of the Samsung Group, if he uses his ability to deal with them, I'm afraid no one will be able to resist it.

For a while, even the American consortium on the other side of the world couldn't sit still, and called Li Mubai one after another to ask about his attitude, and they were also confused, because South Korea's interim president Kang Jae-shek had appeared on the news.

At the same time, presidential candidate Lee Myung-bak, who is already in the lead in this year's regional elections, also said that he will not sit idly by and watch Samsung Group be controlled by foreign capital, and if necessary, the government will immediately launch rescue operations to ensure a smooth transition of management over Samsung Group.

For a while, the stock market faintly stopped falling and reversed the upward trend, but before the situation became clear, everyone did not dare to act rashly, after all, who knows if this is a smokescreen of the South Korean government.

However, everyone knows that without Li Mubai's approval, even if they forcibly enter the market, it is impossible to get more benefits, and some people are even already retreating, anyway, in the first phase of the action against Samsung Group, they have earned enough profits, and there is no need to offend the head of a technology empire that has mastered the world's most advanced technology for the sake of subsequent uncertain profits, especially at the moment, their relationship is still very harmonious.

The latter provides an annual license for companies to earn more than a billion dollars in wealth, and no one wants to push this ally over the side of the enemy.

"Please rest assured, this plan is also in control, I have clearly told you that Samsung Group can not be completely defeated, because this is the final result determined by South Korea's special economy and society, once Samsung Group completely collapses, then the entire South Korean economy will be hit hard, and even regress more than ten years because of this, so we can only seek relevant profits, but not completely eliminate him. Li Mubai answered the phone while explaining to Choi Tae-won and Gu Ben-mao and others who were staring at him.

The latter can only accept his conditions willingly, after all, once the situation is reversed, no one can think about it.

Seeing that there was no objection from the U.S. consortium and the South Korean consortium, Lee Mubai continued, "I have already discussed with Lee Mengxi himself, and about 95% of the Samsung Electronics shares in his hands and circulating in the market will be 70% by the U.S. consortium and 25% by the South Korean consortium In addition, all the shares of Samsung C&T, another major subsidiary of Samsung, will be divided equally between SK and LG Group, and the latter will have to pay for all its affiliates in the insurance industry and the transportation industry. ”

Finally, Li Mubai asked, "My proposal is finished, who is in favor and who is against?!"
