"I'm afraid this is very difficult. After all, the Daqian Group is now a big company. According to our understanding, the Daqian Group now has its own assets in China, Hua Xia, and the United States. Together, I'm afraid it's more than 1.5 billion USD!" Nobuyuki Idei knew a lot about the Daqian Group and gave the current valuation of the Daqian Group's assets.
"It's only 1.5 billion USD. If I give him 2 billion USD to buy him, wouldn't he lick my shoes like a dog? Hahaha!! " The director of the Mitsui Consortium laughed, and the others also laughed. Even Nobuyuki Idei could only show a helpless expression.
There was no other way. The person who spoke was the successor of the Mitsui Consortium. If the other party wanted Nobuyuki Idei to lick his shoes, Nobuyuki Idei would have to obediently stick out his tongue.
It was reasonable to say that even the current Prime Minister of Fusang had to be respectful in front of the Mitsui Consortium. It was not impossible for him to lick their shoes. After all, without the support of the Mitsui Consortium, even the Prime Minister would have to step down in a matter of minutes.
Who told the Mitsui Consortium to be very powerful!
The Mitsui Financial Group was one of the four major financial groups in Japan. It was very powerful. In 2018, the total assets of the Mitsui Financial Group were as high as 36 trillion yen. If converted into USD, it would be 300 billion USD.
Although the name of the Mitsui Consortium seemed to be rarely heard, it had more than 150 companies under it, including the largest bank in Fusang, the largest power grid company, and even the famous iron ore company Vale in Australia. The Mitsui Consortium held more than 60% of the shares.
In short, the Mitsui Consortium was very powerful. Whether it was in terms of status or money, it was dozens or even hundreds of times more than our Boss Jia. When they faced business competition, the solution they gave was often not how to defeat the opponent, but how to directly acquire the opponent.
So when they saw the Daqian Group, the director of the Mitsui Consortium directly proposed to acquire the Daqian Group. They were not showing off, they really had the qualifications.
Although our Boss Jia is now the richest man in the world, but compared to the top financial groups in the world, Boss Jia is still far behind.
Even though the Mitsui Group was powerful, they couldn't even make it into the top ten consortiums in the world!
Although not many people knew about it, Hua Xia had its own four consortiums. They were China Resources Consortium, Zhongxin Consortium, China Merchants Consortium, and Poly Consortium. Each of these consortiums had assets of more than a trillion RMB.
The most amazing thing was that these four consortiums were all state-owned consortiums!
Of course, this was in 2020. The four consortiums hadn't been established yet!
"It will be very difficult to acquire the Daqian Group. I don't think the chairman of the Daqian Group, Jia Yapeng, will sell his Daqian shares!" Nobuyuki Idei said, "This is a man with a huge desire for power and control. He won't allow anyone to interfere with his company!"
"Is it up to him to decide whether to sell or not?" Mitsui Hidei said indifferently, "If he doesn't sell, what about the other shareholders? We just need to buy enough shares to suppress him! "
"Sorry, according to our understanding, the Daqian Group doesn't have a second shareholder. 100% of the company's shares are in the hands of Jia Yapeng alone!" Nobuyuki Idei lowered his head and said.
"How is that possible?" Mitsui Hidei was shocked. He then exclaimed, "This is impossible. A giant company with assets of more than a billion USD doesn't even have a second shareholder. How is that possible? How did he develop the company?!! "
Mitsui Hidei's expression was very exaggerated. It didn't match his identity as the heir of a giant financial group with assets of hundreds of billions of USD.
It couldn't be helped. Nobuyuki Idei's words were too shocking.
Perhaps in the eyes of the audience, the Daqian Group's shares only belonged to Boss Jia alone. This was a very common thing. There was nothing to be shocked about.
But in the eyes of the capitalists, this was too shocking. It was completely impossible for something like this to happen.
According to the lifetime experience of these capitalists, it was normal to achieve 100% control of a company with assets of less than a hundred million USD. But when a company began to exceed a hundred million USD in assets and move toward a bigger goal, the company had to accept financial support from all sides.
If you want to develop the company, you need financing. If you want financing, you must sell the shares. If you don't sell the shares, don't find a penny of support from the outside world, and develop the company single-handedly to the point of hundreds of millions of USD, or even billions of USD, it was completely impossible.
If you are interested, you can take a look at the world's top 500 companies, or even the world's top 5000 companies. See if you can find a company that is 100% controlled by a natural person.
Then, everyone was surprised to find that among these 5,000 companies, there were not even one or two companies with 100% shares. Even if there were, the person who controlled the company was from a huge financial group. He used the financial advantage of the huge financial group to achieve full control of the company.
And the giant financial group itself was definitely owned by many financial groups. It was impossible for the financial group to completely belong to any one person.
For a company like the Daqian Group, which had been directly climbed up by Boss Jia from the grassroots stage and had 1.5 billion USD in assets, in the eyes of the people in the industry, it was probably a rare wonder.
If a company didn't have financing, it would definitely be difficult for it to move forward in the business market.
Even if the company's development funds could be self-sufficient and did not need financing, the problem was that Boss Jia was alone. Could he withstand the covetous eyes of so many people around him?
Boss Jia didn't have a gun. The guns were in other people's hands.
Ahem, I won't go into detail here. Anyway, if it weren't for the calligraphy hanging in Boss Jia's house, the red packet in the box, and the good wife, his Daqian Group would have been devoured by countless greedy mouths.
Back to the topic, although Boss Jia's magic was amazing and showed that he was full of power and control, Mitsui Xiuyi was still very confident in acquiring the Daqian Group. The Daqian Group's valuation was 1.5 billion USD. Now that he offered 2 billion USD, how could he refuse?
Unfortunately, although Mitsui Xiuyi wanted to use the acquisition method to deal with the Daqian Group, the other directors in the board meeting all refused. What a joke, why would they spend 2 billion USD to acquire a Hua Xia Group?
Wouldn't it be better to just kill him?
Mitsui Xiuyi's suggestion to acquire the Daqian Group was rejected by Nobuyuki Ide. But Mitsui Xiuyi was still unhappy. His eyes were flickering, but he didn't say anything else.
"Did all of you realize that the Daqian Group's Achilles' heel had been controlled by us, Sony? We can easily get rid of the Daqian Group!" A director from Mitsubishi Group, Iwasaki Tomo, who had been keeping quiet all this while, said.
"What's the plan?" Everyone asked curiously.
"It's simple. Their VCD's heart had always been in our hands. All we need to do is crush them, and they will be dead!" Iwasaki Tomo laughed.
