Bright Fund suddenly and proactively disclosed that it has acquired a total of 45.3% of the shares of Bussac Group from outside the market, plus the original 5% of the shares, and the 2% acquired today. Point five equity.

Bright Fund's shareholding ratio in Bussac Group increased to 52.8%, more than half of the equity!

This news is simply eye-popping!

Originally, there were still people analyzing the purpose of the Guangming Fund, and now they are still analyzing it. The purpose of the Guangming Fund is the lice on the monk's head - it is obvious.

Bright Fund is ready to acquire Bussac Group!

Many institutions are gearing up to mobilize funds in advance, preparing to participate in the stock rush after the stock market opens tomorrow, and take out a little money from the Bright Fund.

Of course, there are also many institutions that are unmoved. These institutions are the previous shareholders. They have privately sold their equity to the Bright Fund before. Naturally, they know that the Bright Fund has absolute certainty before they will be exposed.

It's too late to enter now!

really.

The next morning, before the Paris Stock Exchange opened.

Bright Fund once again made equity disclosure.

A total of three private acquisitions were completed between yesterday afternoon and this morning.

The stakes for the three acquisitions were 4.9 percent, 4.8 percent, and 4.5 percent!

In fact, these three shareholdings were previously hidden in other unaffiliated shell companies, and the ratio of less than 5% does not need to be disclosed. Now they are sending ammunition to the Bright Fund at one time.

Overnight, the shareholding ratio of Bright Fund increased from 52.8% to 67%!

A familiar scene reappeared.

As the absolute controlling shareholder of Bussac Group, Bright Fund applied to Paris Stock Exchange for suspension of trading, which was approved by the stock exchange.

Investors who were ready to fry a wave of Bussac Group stocks after the market opened today were dumbfounded.

The wool of the Bright Fund is as hard as ever!

An investor complained that the Bright Fund was like a "shadow assassin", lurking in the dark every time, and then suddenly bursting out at the right moment, killing the prey with one hit.

This Tucao aroused the approval of many people, and soon the nickname "Shadow Assassin" spread throughout the stock exchange.

...

Bright Foundation Office.

"Shadow Assassin?"

Xia Yu said this word in his mouth, and shook his head with a chuckle. He didn't know who was obsessed with medieval fantasy and legends.

Leo Martin, who was sitting opposite Xia Yu, saw the boss shaking his head, thinking that Xia Yu didn't like the name, he said helplessly: "Boss, we are obviously bringing light to investors, but now they say we are villains, we want to Respond to this?"

Xia Yu smiled and nodded and said, "A response is definitely required, and this nickname is also an honor."

"honor?"

Leo Martin was stunned, frowning and trying to figure out what Xia Yu meant.

Xia Yu kept smiling and continued: "The shadow assassin kills the target prey with one blow, doesn't it symbolize the level of our investment banking business?"

"As for the assassin who is the villain hiding in the dark?"

"There is also another deeper explanation for our Bright Fund."

"We walk in the dark, but our hearts are always bright!"

"We are committed to bringing light to investors, partners, and society!"

Leo Martin's eyes lit up, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that the boss's explanation from this angle was very appropriate.

"Boss, I will let the newspapers under the Mirror Group promote this aspect, and it will definitely bring great fame to our company!"

Xia Yu smiled and nodded in agreement.

There are thousands of financial companies in Paris, but none of them have such a fantastic title. If the Bright Fund wears the well-known nickname of "Shadow Assassin", it will definitely attract the attention of many people. There is a steady stream of benefits.

As for the negative effects?

There is always a way to solve it,

Moreover, under the greater positive impact, a little negative impact is nothing.

"Okay Leo, complete the acquisition and split of the Bussac Group as soon as possible."

"At the same time, don't forget to complete the tasks I arranged for you before, and give me the complete materials as soon as possible!"

Xia Yu restrained his smile and warned Leo Martin.

"OK!"

The latter nodded solemnly, then said to Xia Yu and left the office.

...

Bright Fund has completed the absolute control of the Bussac Group, and the receiving company will naturally have no resistance.

The employee union that is making trouble will respond to the demands of the employees after the Bright Fund announces that it needs to fully complete the company's acceptance. After continuing the strike now, it will only delay the process, and the employee union will temporarily die.

Everyone is an adult, and at least the basics are understood.

If you change a boss, you have to give the new boss some time. Besides, Bright Fund is a well-known financial giant with deep pockets. Some time ago, billions and billions of funds were thrown out of mergers and acquisitions companies. Just watch it again!

After joining the Bussac Group, the Bright Fund, as an absolute controlling shareholder, is enough to issue all orders without hindrance.

The first thing, of course, is to apply for privatization and then issue a general tender offer to all shareholders.

In terms of price, the offer price of Bright Fund is not too dark.

After all, the market value of the Bussac Group was only 620 million Hong Kong dollars at its peak. Now they have two-thirds of the equity in their hands, and there are still 33% of the equity that is left out. Under the concern, Kukou Sosuo expects to save tens of millions of francs, which not only hurts one's character, but most importantly, is a waste of time.

The entire privatization process will only take five days, and all the remaining shares will be repurchased. In the face of the Guangming Fund, which is already absolutely controlled, no shareholder will imagine that he can get the Guangming Fund. Funds to invest in other stocks, or directly buy investment funds opened by Bright Fund Company.

After the completion of the privatization, statistics show that the acquisition of the entire Bussac Group cost a total of 463.53 million francs.

The short profit was 46.59 million francs.

So the actual cost of expenditure was only 416.94 million francs.

After wholly-owned by the Bussac Group, the Bright Fund has no constraints in its actions.

During the five days of privatization, the team of Bright Fund also conducted a comprehensive accounting of the funds of the Bussac Group and formulated a preliminary plan.

The first step is to split the perfume department directly. The whole department has a complete perfume factory from research and development to production, with a total of 1,319 workers, and also owns perfume brands such as Dior, Labs and Roc.

The fragrance division has total assets of 279.5 million francs, net assets of 96.5 million francs and liabilities of 183 million francs.

The liabilities are directly repaid in full by Bright Fund in advance.

Debt free, the fragrance division's assets are all net worth.

Moreover, the perfume department is a high-quality asset within the Bussac Group. Of course, the value cannot be calculated only based on net assets. The value is estimated to be 700 million francs.

Then under the leadership of the Bright Fund, the lvmh group carried out a pure stock acquisition of the perfume department of the Bussac Group.

After the news came out, it had a great impact on the inside of the Bussac Group, but the impact was positive.

At the very least, the 1,319 employees in the fragrance department were very excited.

The Bussac Group is a broken ship that is about to sink, while the lvmh group is a powerful company with stronger strength and a bright future. After being merged into the lvmh group, they don't need to worry about their jobs at all.

The more than 1,000 employees in the fragrance department thus became the envy of the rest of the Bussac Group.

And because of this beginning, the Bussac Group no longer contradicts Bright Fund's asset statistics and division work, and some people are even looking forward to whether they can get better treatment and more stable salaries if they change to another company.

On the side of the lvmh group, the perfume sales business of the Boussac group was acquired before the merger, and Alain Chevalier's attitude was also the most positive.

Mergers are equally unhindered.

After the perfume department of Bussac Group was merged into lvmh Group, the total share capital of the company increased to 122.65 million shares, and Bright Fund held 113.18 million shares. 91.74 percent rose to 92.28 percent.

The Vuitton family's shareholding fell again by 0.5 points to 7.26 percent.

As for the integration work after the subsequent merger, this is Alain Chevalier's business, and Xia Yu did not pay attention to it anymore.

He turned his energies into another area!

It is now the end of February and his stay in France will not be long.

On the French side, it has only laid a preliminary foundation in the wine industry and luxury goods industry, and the progress is a bit slow...

It's not that he doesn't believe in Leo Martin's ability, but that there are some things that need to be done by someone who can see through the future in order to obtain the greatest benefits.
