Chapter 1009: Get the major shareholders

I know that there is a large amount of gold hidden in the African desert.

I even knew where the tribe was, but I never looked for it. The pain can only be relieved by subconsciously forgetting.

But Li Changheng's memory is extremely strong, and now when he thinks about it, he can't stop thinking about how to get that batch of gold.

But the trouble is, judging from the plot of the movie.

Except it took years and a little bit of secrets to ship out.

He really didn't know how to transport at least several cubic meters of gold from the depths of the desert in complete secrecy, that is, dozens of tons, or even more than a hundred tons of gold.

And after shipping it out, where to hide it is also a problem.

This batch of gold was obviously snatched by the Nazis from Europe. Even if it was remelted to remove traces of the Nazis, it would not be pursued in the future.

But in order to avoid trouble, it is definitely not possible to take out a mortgage in a short period of time.

Before solving these two problems, it is best to let gold stay in the desert base and turn your mind to how to fool the shareholders of Citigroup.

Before I bought 2.5% of Citigroup's shares as agreed, I bought it with a loan of 400 million from Citigroup.

As for the money in UBS and the United States, it was still 130 million in total.

Coupled with the 270 million cash received from Mexico this time, it is no problem to pay off the loan.

But if you can solve all the problems of buying shares in Columbia City Bank by yourself, it can't be cheap for Citi shareholders who don't pay at all.

It's not my style if I don't pick out a selling fee of hundreds of millions of dollars.

Of course, this money does not necessarily have to be paid by Citigroup. Anyway, the plan originally wanted to unite several banks in the United States to bear the responsibility and risk together.

It should not be difficult for a family of 20 to 30 million US dollars.

And you don't have to give the money to yourself, you can directly repay Citigroup's 100 million loan.

The next day, after returning to New York, Li Changheng came to Citigroup headquarters immediately, while the other shareholders who received the call yesterday were already waiting in the conference room.

As the largest shareholder who already holds 19.5% of Citigroup shares, Li Changheng was greeted by everyone as soon as he entered the meeting room.

Shareholders treated him so courteously, except that since he became a shareholder of Citigroup for more than a year, he has helped Citigroup earn hundreds of millions of dollars in net profits, and made Citigroup's market value soar from 6.1 billion to more than 16 billion.

With such a huge increase, not to mention the shareholders, even the investors are eager to pay for him.

The second is that Li Changheng seldom convenes all shareholders to discuss matters, but yesterday he made a serious phone call to gather everyone together. Just thinking about it, everyone knows that there must be something good, or at least there is a big plan.

In this way, Citigroup may usher in another bumper harvest, and the companies and interest groups behind the shareholders may also be able to make a fortune.

Li Changheng didn't talk too much, he asked someone to come up with a confidentiality contract, and everyone signed it, although it wasn't really a useful document.

Only then did Li Changheng express his plan to promote Citigroup's external expansion, as well as his idea of ​​eyeing Columbia City Bank.

There is nothing new in the plan of external expansion. Citigroup has already opened up transnational business as early as the 1920s and 1930s.

But in the eyes of everyone, the Columbia City Bank, although not a giant, is definitely a very good cake.

As long as the plan is successful for such a top three large bank in the country, Citigroup will not only have the opportunity to open branches and various businesses in Colombia, but also have the opportunity to gobble up financial business in Colombia through the city bank.

They even lent money to the Colombian government through city banks to obtain large-scale access permits for basic industries such as urban construction, infrastructure, telecommunications, railways, agriculture and animal husbandry.

Once you have mastered these industries, it is equivalent to getting a ticket with stable income and can eat tens or hundreds of years.

If you go a step further, it is not impossible to secretly control all walks of life in Colombia, and then to control politicians.

But Li Changheng didn't care about the idea of ​​controlling a country at all.

Colombia is not an island country or South Korea. It is a country with complete sovereignty. The locals will never see their country become a vassal of the United States.

In the future, with more channels for obtaining information, it will be easier for ordinary people to understand current affairs. If you want to fool and deceive the bottom, you may be able to do it in a short period of time, but after a long time, it will eventually be exposed.

Therefore, Li Changheng's idea has always been economic interests. It would be even better if he could buy tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of acres of farms and pastures.

After hearing Li Changheng's plan, the shareholders of Citigroup certainly don't want to let go of the opportunity to make money. Besides, once they buy a stake in City Bank, Citigroup's stock price will most likely rise again.

Li Changheng quickly gained the support of all shareholders, but when he asked for a reward, these guys initially wanted to use him as the largest shareholder to confuse them.

However, Li Changheng is not the chairman and chairman of the board of directors of Citigroup now. He is only in charge of the investment department and has no obligation to help the group merge other companies.

Moreover, if he really has the responsibility to help Citigroup gain more benefits, then Li Changheng also has an excuse to ask the group to reward him for his work.

At that time, it will not only be a reward for money.

Shareholders of Citigroup do not need to consider giving shares or simply giving money, they will definitely choose to only give money.

Otherwise, according to the original contract with Li Changheng, as long as he helps Citigroup's market value increase by 8 billion and can afford the money, the final shareholding can reach 32%.

If Li Changheng gets more than 1.4 shares before this contract is fulfilled, then he can control 34%, and then get a veto.

This means that when the board of directors votes on a certain resolution, even if all shareholders agree, he can use a veto to veto that resolution.

And what he wants to do, he only needs to win over a small number of shareholders with 51% minus 34% of the shares to support him, and anything can be passed.

If you don't want to do something, even if the shareholders of 66% of the shares agree, you can't even think about passing it on the board of directors. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

It is equivalent to cutting off half of the rights of other shareholders on the board of directors.

With Li Changheng's means and ability to make money, Citigroup will actually be completely under his control by then.

Of course, if Li Changheng can help shareholders get enough benefits, it is not impossible to get more than 33.34% of the shares.

Moreover, even though Li Changheng only holds 19.5% of the shares at this time, his influence has already made shareholders, large and small, unwilling to quarrel with him.

Negotiations came and went, and the only point of contention was the amount of money.

Li Changheng looked at the representatives of the old Rockefeller and Morgan, as well as several representatives who held huge pension funds, and quickly expressed his idea of ​​attracting other groups to participate in eating meat together, and then share the risks.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished talking about this idea, the shareholder representatives of several funds and the old Rockefeller immediately didn't care whether to pay Li Changheng 100 million or 60 million.
