Chapter 2062 Rogers
With the British side of the investment, there are many in contact, Li Zeju passed back good news, Canada's Rogers Communications, the acquisition is in sight. .
Rogers Communications is Canada's second largest communications service provider, including TV, Internet, wireline and wireless phones, as well as publishing, media and more.
If Li Zeju is not a Canadian citizen, this acquisition is absolutely impossible to negotiate. Such an influential enterprise, it is impossible for Canada to acquire foreign capital.
So Li Zeju made some concessions, stripping out Rogers media, publishing, television and other businesses, as long as the cable TV network, telecommunications companies and wireless communications companies, the three other companies, others can not.
Even if the other party is not willing, then everyone will give them Rogers' sub-brands, and Rogers can not. Of course, this price will be much lower.
The shareholders of Rogers Communications do not agree to this type of acquisition. They are listed companies. Once the three most important subsidiaries are sold, their stock prices will inevitably fall, causing their other subsidiaries to lose value and they will lose.
In fact, if their chairman and eo died two years ago, they would never sell Rogers Communications.
According to the stock price of their listing in New York at this time, plus their total share capital calculation, the market value of Rogers Communications is only about 13 billion US dollars, whether Li Zeju is looking for someone to calculate, or Feng Yu is looking for someone to calculate, this The value is low. Because the stock price of the communications company will definitely rise in the future, the demand for the network will continue to increase in the future.
In fact, South Korea and China are the best among the countries in terms of global network speed and price.
South Korea does not need to say that because of the small size, large investment, and the best countries in the global network, there is no one. Although the charges are not low, they are not as high as those of the country and the island.
China is cheap, because the same length of fiber optic cable, Huaxia's utilization is higher, more people and more dense.
After the acquisition of Rogers Communications, Feng Yu is also planning to increase investment in network construction, to beat competitors from the speed, and to enter the rice market.
After Li Zeju knew Feng Yu’s expectations, he made a suggestion, that is, to retain some of Rogers’ shareholders, they would be well controlled.
The best way to enter the rice market in the future is to merge with a communications company in the country. Since anyway, it is necessary to give up some shares, it is better to let some now, it will be easier to enter the rice market in the future.
Of course, he and Feng Yu are an idea that they cannot have an absolute controlling stake, but at least 50% of their equity and voting rights must be guaranteed to guarantee the greatest power.
Even if possible, buy as many voting shares as possible.
In this way, the brand of Rogers can be retained, and among the shareholders of Rogers Communications, there are many shares held by the company in the United States, which will have a good future for them to acquire each other and enter the rice market. Big benefits.
Feng Yu agreed to this plan, but asked for as much voting rights as possible, even if he spent more money to accept it. If Sprint can get a merger, of course, it is good, even a merger.
Even if there is no controlling stake for the time being, but as long as Feng Yu thinks, then the boss of this communication company must be Feng Yu, no one has enough qualifications to compete with Feng Yu for the right to speak.
However, Feng Yu himself knows that he is not good at this. As long as the other party does not hang his money, then it doesn't matter who is the boss. Anyway, this company can't enter the Chinese market, and it will be tossed in North America. It doesn't matter.
If the British side of the communications company can also be acquired, then even if it does not merge, some businesses can also save a lot of costs after the launch.
Most of Changshi’s funds are involved in the UK. If you want to buy the voting shares in the hands of Rogers shareholders, you will not be able to.
Just because the other party did not agree to be directly acquired by Changshi, Feng Yu and Li Zejuyi together, the two re-registered a joint venture company in Canada according to the request of the other party, and Fengshui Holdings held a 60% stake. With a 30% stake, Li Zeju has a 10% stake and Li Zeju is the company's president.
Rogers has temporarily suspended trading last week, and five of the top seven major shareholders have already settled, and the remaining two are unwilling to sell. One of them is a pension fund in a Canadian province, and the other is a state fund in Canada.
It took billions of dollars to acquire shares in the hands of five major shareholders, mainly voting stocks. Although the number of shares they buy is only 57% of the total share capital, the voting rights already account for 73%. In addition, the two Canadian capitals have no right to speak.
At the same time, cooperation negotiations with the US-Sprite Communications Company are also underway. They will at least acquire a portion of Sprint's stock and then cooperate.
As for whether or not it will eventually merge, Li Zeju said that it is more difficult, but it is not without opportunities. The main thing is that once the merger, the combined company will become one of the top communication companies in North America, and the threat to other communication companies is too great, then those companies will inevitably use some organizations like trade organizations. Obstruction.
This requires a gradual picture, and it cannot be done overnight.
However, if the British communications company is acquired, the merger will be slightly easier. After all, Canada is also British.
Moreover, Changshi itself also has communication business in Xiangjiang and Australia. All of these will be merged together, the company's strength will be greatly improved, and the cost can be greatly reduced, such as some engineers, research and development institutions, etc. A lot of money.
It is even possible to cooperate with the transfer company in the Mainland. The two sides can cooperate in communication technology, long-distance telephone charges, etc. In the future, both of them, Huaxia Huaxia State Capital, can benefit from it.
Ralph represented the wind and rain, and went to the other side of the business. Ralph, who is on the Canadian side, took his own initiative. He knew that this was the most important business expansion of the boss.
Feng Yu, still staying in the UK, waiting for Cameron’s decision. These days, they are all with Elena.
Three days later, Cameron told Feng Yu through the Superman, thl company, can allow Feng Yu to buy shares, but not all can be sold to Feng Yu, the controlling party can not be Feng Yu.
Under this condition, Feng Yu does not matter, as long as the other party allows the technology to be licensed to Huaxia enterprises. (To be continued...)
