Chapter 919 Veolia
"Don't worry too much about Veolia for the time being. Focus on the Vivendi Group." Xu Liang's voice sounded.
"Why? Honey, I can take care of both. Besides, can I still study if I don't participate in management."
Christina said immediately.
For a career-oriented woman, it feels very uncomfortable to have a huge asset there and not be able to interfere with it.
"You are pregnant with your third child. Let's give birth to the child first."
Xu Liang said directly.
He also didn’t expect that Christina, who was pregnant with twins for the first time, would have three babies this time.
Among the dozen women around her, she was the first to be pregnant with three children.
“That’s it. We’ll wait until the baby is born.”
Seeing how solemn he said it, Christina didn't dare to talk back.
Glancing at her, Xu Liang said calmly: "If something happens to the child, I will deprive you of the power to take charge of the Vivendi Group."
Christina's heart trembled.
said quickly.
“Dear, don’t worry, I will definitely listen to the doctor’s instructions, rest and eat on time, and give birth to our child safely.”
"That's about it. ... It's getting late, we should have a rest."
Xu Liang got up and walked upstairs.
The women looked at each other and followed together.
——
15th floor of the Courbevoir Building in La Défense.
Hanhua Paris Office.
Xu Liang sat on the sofa, flipping through the documents in his hand, put them aside after a while, and said with a smile.
“You did a great job and exceeded the fundraising task.”
Michelle Coppa said modestly: “Thanks to the goodwill accumulated by the head office over the years and your Only with this reputation can Hanhua's Paris office raise 4.3 billion euros in cash."
Xu Liang nodded slightly, "Return the excess.
This year you will only operate two hedge funds: No. 1 hedge fund and No. 2 private equity fund. "
"Understood. ”
“How is the relocation of Vivendi Investment Fund and Incubator going? "Xu Liang asked.
"It is expected that everything will be moved in tomorrow afternoon, and the financial settlement can be completed in a week at most. ”
The scale of Vivendi Venture Capital Fund is not large, only 500 million euros.
The incubator that cooperates with SoftBank is even smaller.
“Vivendi Venture Capital Fund was changed to Hanhua Paris Office Venture Capital Fund No. 3, and the incubator was directly merged into it, which also saves you from starting from scratch.
However, SoftBank’s shares, If it can be acquired, then it will be acquired. If it cannot be acquired, then it will be diluted. "
"The investment direction of the No. 2 private equity fund is mainly Internet companies and the luxury goods industry. What are the details? It's up to you to vote
As for Vivendi's office, you don't have to worry about it, and don't ask too much. "
"Understood. "
"Go and get busy. "
After sending Michelle away, Lu Hui quickly brought in a middle-aged white man wearing a brown suit and gold-rimmed glasses.
"BOSS. ”
"Sit."
Jerf Cullen sat down.
He is the trader of Hanhua New York office and joined Hanhua New York branch when it was established.
Over the past three years, I have been working hard and not only made great contributions to the company, but I have also made my own contribution.
A month ago, I was transferred from New York to Paris with a call from the big boss.
A big job was also arranged for him: trading 5 billion euros long oil.
God, he has never dealt with so much money.
I felt anxious and excited at the same time.
“How many positions do you hold now?”
“A total of 14.536 million Brent crude oil positions, with an average buying price of US$5.52 billion per barrel, which has currently increased by US$1.7 per barrel. .
Leverage multiple 2.4. ”
Said and handed over a thick document.
Xu Liang flipped through it briefly. It was filled with dense numbers and various trend charts.
No. Professionals can't understand it even if they get it
Put it aside
"Within three days, all Vivendi's funds will be received, and you will invest them all, and the leverage will be increased to 3 times."
"Okay."
Xu Liang said to Vivendi Group The investment plan will not start now, but will start after the shareholding of Vivendi exceeds 45% and completely defeats Vincent Bolore.
After more than a month, more than 2 billion euros have been invested.
But it’s not the time to harvest yet.
After a serious explanation, he waved the other party to leave.
"Mr. Xu, the Kunpeng has completed its maintenance and is ready to depart at any time."
Lu Hui came over and reminded.
Xu Liang nodded.
The affairs of Vivendi Group have basically come to an end now. It is turbulent and very exciting.
But it's finally over.
He stayed here for more than two months, and it was time to leave.
“The information on Veolia Environment Group that you asked me to sort out has been sorted out.”
Lu Hui handed over a thick stack of documents.
“Put it on the table.”
Turning around, he looked at the beautiful woman with short ear-length hair in front of him, wearing a light cyan sleeveless T-shirt and slightly loose nine-point pants of the same color.
"Lu Hui, I remember you are from Wuchang, right?"
"Yes." "The thoroughfare of nine provinces, one of the four major gatherings in the world, the place of revolution, with outstanding people, I really want to see it . ”
“If you have time, I can be your tour guide to ensure that you can visit Wuchang all the way up and down.”
Xu Liang nodded, "I'll definitely go and take a look when I get the chance. ...Okay, go and do your work."
"Mr. Xu, I...?"
"Anything else? "
Seeing the beauty's slightly embarrassed look, Xu Liang waved.
“Come here.”
Lu Hui walked over with a bit of trepidation.
She was inexplicably nervous, and her fingers unconsciously clenched the corners of her clothes.
Looking at the woman who had been with him for five years, Xu Liang reached out and pulled her.
Wearing high heels, she instantly became unstable and threw herself into the man's arms.
Holding Yingying's slender waist wrapped in ribbons, he lifted the beauty's chin with his right hand, looked at the dimple close at hand, lowered his head and kissed her.
The beauty who enjoyed it again soon became addicted to this strange and exciting game. After a long time, she collapsed in Xu Liang's arms, panting.
Xu Liang, who helped arrange his underwear and covered his chest, chuckled.
"Since I agreed to you, you are my woman. The reason why I have not moved these days is mainly because the opportunity is not right, and I also want to try something new."
Slightly teasing The sound was like a stream of hot turbid currents, reverberating in Lu Hui's chest and abdomen, making her feel inexplicably hot all over her body.
A heart seemed to be burning.
Suddenly his body felt light.
The whole person was picked up by Xu Liangheng and gently placed on the sofa next to him.
"Calm down and go out when you feel calmer."
"Yes."
Leaving Lu Hui alone to feel the wonderful and hot emotions, Xu Liang walked to the nearby office chair and sat down.
As a veteran with countless wives, his reason can overcome the impulses of his body in most cases.
Of course there are times when the reverse is true.
But, very few.
Looking at the beauty who had sat up and was taking a deep breath to calm down, Xu Liang smiled and picked up the information about Veolia Environment Group on the table.
This public utility company founded by the grandson of Napoleon and originally named 'French General Waters', after more than 150 years of development, has become one of the top 10 public utility giants in the world.
However, as Vivendi Group's interest shifts to the pan-entertainment industry with higher returns, public utilities have inevitably become a cash machine for Vivendi's expansion.
In July 2000, Vivendi spun off its environmental protection business and listed it in Paris.
At that time, Vivendi’s shareholding was as high as 63%.
However, the fish ponds in Paris are too small. In order to raise more funds to expand their pan-entertainment business, they need larger fish ponds.
Soon.
Vivendi Environmental Division goes public in the Big Apple.
As the world's largest financial market, City of God has countless capital.
Vivendi, which raised enough capital, spent a huge sum of US$34 billion to swallow up Baghlan, which owns Universal Pictures, Universal Music and Universal Studios.
A sensation all over the world.
Following this, it acquired the US online film and television and entertainment business for US$10.3 billion.
surpassing Disney and becoming the world's second largest pan-entertainment giant after AOL Time Warner.
Vivendi, which had reached its peak of victory, broke out in financial crisis. Faced with a huge debt of 23.3 billion euros, Vivendi continued to sell shares in the environmental protection department.
