After sending the old man away, Rui suddenly patted his head - forgot to ask how much money he invested!

Hey, distracted for a moment, forgetting this crucial question, Rui sighed, and had to see how much the check would be written tomorrow. The pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info is a dollar he also admitted, this is also the first investment in the new company.

After sending the old man away, several other investors came to visit one after another, and Rui was surprised to find that these investors seemed to have a strong willingness to invest, giving people a strange feeling. How to say it, it's like a bunch of chopping hands waving banknotes ready to buy, buy, buy, buy, really ask a few words casually, and then place an order directly, without even having the process of shopping around.

At the end of the day, Rui met with seven people, received more than $10 million in cash checks, promised more than $20 million in investment, and some promised like the old man but did not know the exact amount.

Basically, no one said no, 100% success rate, this is a bit too exaggerated, this is completely beyond the scope of Ray's experience, in his concept, even if Buffett, Soros, Yellen, Greenspan and other big bulls personally go out to raise funds for a project, I am afraid it is difficult for everyone to pay for it, let alone a little-known person like him.

It can only be the reason for this list, these people must have already been done well, the boss has already communicated, and they are destined to vote for this project, this is the only explanation, unless God himself comes.

The fundraising that followed went smoothly, and by the time Rui had seen all the people on his list, he already had more than $5 billion in cash and intended investments on hand.

Rui was impressed by the boss's super fundraising ability, not to mention anything else, such a strong fundraising ability alone is enough to become a partner of a top fund company.

When the funds were ready, Rui met with Xie Taoming, and Rui took his own team and worked with Xie Taoming's team to officially start the merger and acquisition of KUKA.

KUKA itself is a listed company, so the first step is not to contact KUKA company, but to quietly eat the tradable shares in the secondary market, the cost of shares at this time is the lowest, once the intention of acquisition is revealed, the stock price will definitely rise in the secondary market, which will have an impact on future acquisitions, so that the acquisition cost will rise.

When a certain amount of chips were collected in the secondary market, Rui began to carry out complex financial operations, first shorting warrants, shorting corporate bonds, and then began to make waves in the bonds, warrants, and stock markets, constantly suppressing Kuka's stock price. Through a series of operations, while suppressing the stock price, while gaining profits, while gradually closing in the stock, in preparation for the move.

Rui tossed in the front desk, Mo Hui used Skynet in the background to cooperate with him, Rui's means were more effective, and in addition to the increase effect of Skynet, Rui quickly achieved his initial goal and collected 5.4% of the shares in the secondary market.

The castle officially raised its position to become the third largest shareholder of Kuka, and the company's share price rose by 12% in the following week, and after the listing, Rui and Xie Taoming began to contact several other major shareholders of Kuka and began to negotiate the acquisition.

The Voith Group is the majority shareholder of KUKA with a total of 25 percent of the shares, while Fredham Lowe is the second largest shareholder with a 10 percent stake. Therefore, one of the keys to the success of this acquisition is whether the two major shareholders can be persuaded to transfer their shares.

At the same time, the collection behavior in the secondary market has not stopped, and Rui continued to increase his shareholdings, soon increasing his stake to more than 10%, surpassing Fredham to become the second largest shareholder in one fell swoop. This increase in holdings itself also made the major shareholders see Rui's determination and sincerity, and the two sides began to enter the acquisition negotiation stage.

Originally, everything was normal, but one day, Rui suddenly brought bad news to Mo Hui.

"Boss, the German government has expressed its opposition to the acquisition."

"The German government...... What do they say? ”

"The German Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy considers KUKA to be of great importance to the German automotive industry and occupies an important place in Germany's Industry 4.0 plan, and in order to protect German industry, they have expressed their opposition to the sale of KUKA to us. Even if the worst happens, Kuka will have to stay in Europe. ”

“...... Do you have any solutions or suggestions? ”

"Boss, we may need to find the support of local political forces in Germany, and through them to do the work of the German government, but it is ......"

"Say!"

"There may be a lot of exchange of interests involved, and I can't make decisions about this."

"Find someone, talk, tell me if there are any conditions, go forward step by step, Kuka will get my hands no matter what."

"Good! As long as my boss supports me, I'll have a way to get them. ”

Rui's chest was beating loudly, but Mo Hui felt that Rui might not be able to rely on this matter alone, and he still had to find a backup plan through Skynet.

GM's power in Germany is not strong, after all, it is the world of the public, so even the coverage and density of Skynet in Germany are unsatisfactory. In addition, Germany's business has strong German characteristics, and Germany's Internet companies are not developed, which leads to the fact that Skynet can use few channels for obtaining information, and the information density is much worse than that of the United States.

The combination of various factors makes Skynet far less powerful in Germany than in the United States, but even if it is weakened, it is still Skynet after all, and Mo Hui quickly found some key information.

Mo Hui found that in fact, not only the Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy did not agree to the takeover of Kuka, but even the largest shareholder, Voith, also reported the takeover. And the resistance is even more than imagined, some German parliamentarians have clearly expressed their views on this matter, some high-level German government officials have also opposed this, and even the European Union has quite a few complaints about it.

Germany......

Mo Hui has no strength over there, he can't find any resources, and now in addition to pinning his hopes on Rui, the only thing to rely on is Skynet.

In fact, Mo Hui can also ask General to intervene in this matter, and it is possible to solve this problem with the power of General Motors, but Mo Hui just thought about it and gave up this idea.

Because GM itself is the world's largest car company, it has been continuously strengthened by its trajectory, and now it has sold more than 17 million vehicles, and is marching into a super enterprise in the automotive industry, and perhaps in many years, GM will become a Microsoft in the automotive industry.

The automotive industry is the most widely used industrial robot industry, it is conceivable that if GM is involved in the acquisition of Kuka, it is likely that in the end, the meat bun will be swallowed by GM. (To be continued.) )
