v2 Chapter 505: Gene umbrella becomes stronger once agai
Gene Umbrella Company called Henry that the world's pharmaceutical giant Pfizer prepared to acquire Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals of the United States through share swaps with shares worth about 59.5 billion U.S. dollars.
Henry couldn't help being surprised when he heard the news. These two companies are the world's top pharmaceutical companies. If Henry does not exist in this world, the merged Pfizer will immediately become the world's largest pharmaceutical company, and since 2002, it has occupied the top position in the pharmaceutical rankings, with a market value of one or two. Hundreds of billions of dollars.
"Mr. Williams, after the merger of Pfizer, we will closely follow the pharmaceutical department of our Gene Umbrella!"
"I know!" Henry nodded calmly. As the world's largest market capitalization company, Gene Umbrella is already close to a trillion-dollar company. In fact, gene pharmacy is only one of the departments, and there are more than 20 departments such as the bioinformatics department, the biomaterials department, the bionano department, the biorobot department, the bioenergy department, the bioenvironment department, the bioengineering department, and the equipment manufacturing department. However, the gene pharmacy department is one of the most important departments of the gene umbrella.
The annual R&D investment of Gene Umbrella exceeds US$40 billion, which is more than the sum of the R&D investment of the nine pharmaceutical companies behind it!
Henry thought about it at this time and said: "Pfizer was founded in 1849 and has a history of more than 160 years. Moreover, this company is still a research and development-based biopharmaceutical company, and its products cover chemical drugs, biological preparations, and vaccines. , Health drugs, and many other broad and potential therapeutic and health fields. At the same time, its excellent R&D and production capabilities are in a leading position in the world. In this case, it is better to acquire it to reduce one competitor; Enhance the strength of Gene Umbrella!" Henry paused and asked, "What is the current cash flow of Gene Umbrella?"
"180 billion dollars!"
Henry pondered for a moment and said, "Okay, I will ask Bank of America, Standard Chartered Bank, Royal Bank of Scotland, Prestige Capital, and Blackstone Investment Group to borrow 100 billion U.S. dollars for Gene Umbrella to help Gene Umbrella complete its acquisition of Pfizer! "
"Yes!"
At the juncture of Pfizer's acquisition of Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals, Henry had to buy it, because any potential threat may be a fatal threat, and it must be stifled! Henry did not allow another Big Mac to appear in the world.
As a result, when the American media rumors that Pfizer would acquire Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals, another news immediately detonated the media.
On May 10th, Gene Umbrella Company held a press conference and announced that it intends to acquire Pfizer and Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals for US$160 billion!
This news quickly spread all over the world, and was considered by the media to be another big move by Henry Williams following the acquisition of department stores and supermarkets!
"Fuck, I'm taking it, it's too awesome. I thought Pfizer was very awesome. It spent 59.5 billion US dollars to acquire another major pharmaceutical company. I didn't expect to get a Cheng Yaojin halfway through. I bought the two of them together... Nima, it's like a life, life is like a drama!" The Chinese netizen "Jade Faced Flying Dragon" said in astonishment.
"Oh, my God, if Gene Umbrella acquired Pfizer and Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals, it would be terrible, and all pharmaceutical companies in the world would be trembling about it!!!" American Internet user Jack was shocked.
"Haha, great, Henry Williams is our Duke of Cambridge in the United Kingdom, and we are striving to acquire all American companies, as well as Johnson & Johnson, Merck, AstraZeneca, Eli Lilly, Wyeth...!" A British netizen gloated. leave a message.
The Americans couldn't stand it anymore, and they left messages: "Fuck, you fucking, isn't Mr. Williams us American?
Mr. Williams, it is said that GlaxoSmithKline in the UK is very strong, representing the highest level in the world today in the four medical fields of anti-infection, central nervous system, respiratory and gastrointestinal/metabolic, in the field of vaccines and anti-tumor drugs It also ranks first in the industry. Moreover, it is the only company that has developed drugs and vaccines for the three major global diseases (malaria, AIDS and tuberculosis) identified by the World Health Organization! Acquire it, that's right! "
"..."
Henry looked at the online comments and was really dumbfounded. Netizens actually offered advice to himself, but they all seemed to be pretty good... However, the acquisition of his own will definitely be stopped by the governments of various countries!
At this time, the minds of Pfizer and Pharmacia's management were really mixed and indescribable. Especially Pfizer, who used to be a hunter wielding a gun, but in a blink of an eye, he became a prey in the eyes of others, and there was a big gap in his heart...
"What to do? Do you accept the acquisition of Gene Umbrella?"
At the Pfizer board meeting, an old man in a suit and leather shoes asked, wearing a pair of round-framed retro glasses, he raised his head and looked at the crowd.
"Butler, don't you think the price given by the Gene Umbrella is very moving?" A middle-aged man sitting on the right hand of the old man chuckled. "The valuation of Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals is at most 60 billion U.S. dollars. The company’s valuation can reach $1,000!"
The old man named Butler stroked his eyes and said, "Yes, the price is very exciting! Hart, do you mean you decided to sell Pfizer?"
"Of course!"
Harty nodded, then looked at the other board members and said, "Everyone will raise their hands and vote!"
As soon as the voice fell, most of the directors raised their hands...
At this moment, a similar scene was also staged at Pharmacia Pharmaceuticals.
Due to the huge scale of this acquisition, the US government intervened in the review. Although Henry's relationship with the U.S. government is not very harmonious, he still has the contacts he cultivated before. In addition, the U.S. is a country that pays attention to the rule of law. Even if Gene Umbrella acquires these two companies, it is still far in the pharmaceutical field. It does not constitute a monopoly, so the US government cannot prevent the acquisition of Gene Umbrella in the name of anti-monopoly!
So, one month later, the three parties completed the signing!
