Back To 1995: Chapter 639 staking
Chapter 639 Staking
Antonio was a little hesitant at this time. The price was a little too high. The price of 98 US dollars, 20 million shares is equivalent to nearly 2 billion US dollars. Even LVMH Group feels a little too expensive.
When Antonio was hesitant, De Soleil couldn't help it. At this time, the price was already high enough. Even they never thought that Gucci could sell so expensive.
Looking at Kravis's movement, De Soleil didn't dare to delay any longer. If he delayed, he would really offend RICK and Song Yang.
Looking at what Song Yang has done this time, the Federal Securities Commission of America, the Foreign Affairs Commission, the Italian Securities Commission, etc. are all on the platform for Song Yang.
If Song Yang was unsuccessful this time and he failed to get Gucci in the end, De Soleil wouldn't dare to bet on Song Yang's side, what kind of tricks he would play. America, just got off the plane and got caught and cleaned up!
"Gucci agrees to RICK's acquisition, I think RICK is the best partner for Gucci!"
After De Soleil finished speaking, he directly signed the contract and sold 51% of Gucci's shares to RICK at a price of nearly four billion dollars, setting a new record in the luxury industry!
Seeing this scene, Antonio snorted coldly and glanced at De Soré, "President Bernard, I will remember everything today."
After finished speaking, Antonio left in a hurry with a group of people. He had achieved his goal this time, and made RICK pay a large sum of beautiful knives in vain.
It's just that Antonio, who arrived at Florence Airport and rushed back to Paris, felt a sense of unease in his heart. He screwed up this time. Originally looking at a sure win, the boat capsized in the gutter, and the duck that reached its mouth was actually given to him. Robbed!
With Bernard Arnott's character, Antonio didn't know what would happen to him.
Antonio left the stage with anger and panic, and Eric was not too happy. In just a few minutes, he threw four or five billion dollars abruptly, and it was strange to be happy.
If he hadn't known that De Soré could not have anything to do with the LVMH group, Eric would have wondered if De Soré had united with Antonio and deliberately tricked them!
squeezed out a few smiles. Although there was a large sum of beautiful knives, he finally got Gucci into his pocket, and Song Yang paid so much in vain.
"RICK will abide by the agreement, and Gucci will maintain an independent operation in the future. President De Soleil, I hope that at the end of the year, Gucci can bring good news to RICK, and don't let the directors of Bruno be disappointed!"
Eric warned De Soré and the others, asking them to stop thinking about it, and honestly work for RICK to pay off the debt. In order to buy Gucci, RICK was carrying a lot of debt.
Kravis raised his head at this time and said calmly, "Gucci doesn't need to worry about LVMH Group, RICK and Song in the future, they will solve the troubles of Amsterdam and the New York Stock Exchange for Gucci!"
At first glance, it seems that Kravis is solving problems for Gucci. LVMH will definitely not let it go, and will continue to sue Gucci and RICK. Kravis is to reassure De Soleil that RICK will solve it. These troubles.
But if you think about it carefully, this is the opposite, and it carries a bit of a threat. De Sole's executives have taken so many beautiful knives. If they dare to be dishonest and make small moves, then RICK and Song Yang, there are means to clean up them.
The LVMH group can be dealt with, but how many of them can’t be dealt with?
If it wasn't for RICK this time, through the pressure from America, Gucci's new shares would not be issued at all, at least the New York Stock Exchange would not be able to pass, it is possible to cancel Gucci's listing qualification, how could the Amsterdam court pretend to be blind, what? Can't see the same.
"Gucci will be the best luxury company in the world, this will be seen by everyone!"
De Sorey responded. He definitely has a few brushes. He can bring Gucci from a loss to the present.
After this turmoil, Gucci has basically settled down, and the throne of the world's top luxury goods ranks, the influence of the entire brand will be even higher!
"RICK bought Gucci at a sky-high price!"
"For $4 billion, 51% of Gucci's shares were sold for a historically high price!"
"Who is the king of luxury, Gucci is the most expensive luxury brand in the world!"
After the agreement was signed, Gucci released an announcement that the news that RICK had become the controlling shareholder of Gucci, like the wind, spread throughout the luxury and financial industries.
When they saw that half of Gucci's equity was sold for four billion dollars, countless people were stunned. Luxury companies are expensive, as you can imagine, but a company like Gucci made less than two hundred million dollars last year. , according to the transaction price, Gucci's real worth is more than 8 billion US dollars!
As soon as the news came out, Gucci's stock price rose sharply. RICK acquired Gucci, and the stock price opened to 98 dollars. Now Gucci's stock price has just touched the threshold of 90 dollars. It's still cheap.
On the same day, Gucci’s share price exceeded US$100 for the first time in history, and the market value exceeded US$9 billion, all setting new historical records.
"RICK became the controlling shareholder of Gucci and sent four directors to Gucci. Four of Gucci's nine-member board of directors will belong to the RICK Group.
The acquisition of Gucci made RICK officially one of the top luxury groups in the world. After the acquisition of Gucci, RICK announced that it would once again acquire the French Balenciaga Clothing Group for $171 million, which is famous for women’s clothing and accessories…
RICK's acquisition of Gucci may make the luxury industry officially enter a three-legged situation. In the future, RICK is likely to continue to acquire other luxury brands, and the global luxury industry may enter a new era! "
The Wall Street Journal quickly reported on RICK's news. After buying Gucci, RICK bought Balenciaga by the way.
The Wall Street Journal predicts that RICK will conduct a new round of buying, buying and buying, which will trigger an arms race in the luxury industry. LVMH Group and Richemont Group will definitely not sit still and join the queue to acquire the luxury goods industry. In the luxury industry, a new round of reshuffle is about to begin.
"Director Viola, thank you for your support, the Bruno family will not forget everything you have done!"
Here in San Jose, Song Yang was on the phone. No matter what, Song Yang had to thank RICK for taking over Gucci. This is the rule. No matter how much Viola and the others played, Song Yang would take this favor.
Although he spent some unjust money, it went well. Now Song Yang understands a little bit why Amerika Corporation, when acquiring an overseas company, likes to play tricks.
But Song Yang and RICK are still a little conservative. If GE and Immelt did it, it would be more domineering. After all, when Immelt bought Alstom, he directly arrested the president of the other party and played with him. As soon as the overlord hits the bow, that is the performance of General Electric at the peak of its power.
