Find the latest chapter in "Rebirth of the Most Powerful Tycoon ()"!
More than 20 days were simply not enough for Joseph Chretien's gunshot wound to heal completely.
But the ability to act is there.
Speaking with a wounded body, the effect will be even better.
In the senior ward, Joseph Chretien's entire campaign team came to prepare for his discharge.
Pollster Ron Robert reported the good news directly to him as a celebration of his discharge.
"Joseph, the latest undercover poll shows the Liberals have gone up to 68 per cent and yours to 64 per cent."
"Especially in Quebec, you're at 71 percent, which is a pretty scary rating."
"Your competitor, Martin Bryan's approval rating, has dropped to 19% nationally!"
"Now the people are looking forward to your recovery and discharge. In the next ten days, as long as your exposure rate increases, the approval rate will usher in a new round of outbreaks!"
Joseph Chretien showed a bright smile and said to everyone: "Thank you for your hard work, this is the result of everyone's efforts."
"That's what we should do."
"Joseph, let's go, now the hospital is surrounded by your supporters, go and receive their warm cheers!" General Manager Barlow Pierce said with a smile.
"Let's go, it's not worth staying here anymore!"
After speaking, Joseph Chretien took the lead out of the ward.
...
The news of Joseph Chretien's recovery and discharge from the hospital was immediately reported by major media, and his supporters all over Canada celebrated it.
And in the following days, Joseph Chretien, with his sick body, held competition speeches everywhere.
Every speech was packed with people chanting "Heroes of the Canadian People" to show support for Joseph Chretien.
After each speech, support for the Liberals and Joseph Chretien rose.
The Progressive Conservative Party and its leader, Martin Bryan, are increasingly desperate.
As for the other small parties, they have already given up their minds. It is a pity for the Progressive Conservative Party, and they are quietly watching Joseph Chretien perform.
Time flies by.
Finally the day has come.
On June 30, 1984, the Canadian House of Commons general election was held as scheduled.
When the final vote came out, it shocked the entire political arena.
Even though a lot of people were expecting the Liberal Party to get a lot of seats, they didn't expect to get this many seats.
Ontario has 100 seats, with the Liberals winning 92.
Quebec has 75 seats, with the Liberals winning 73.
British Columbia has 29 seats, with the Liberals winning 25.
...
The final result is that Joseph Chretien won a total of 257 seats in the 285 members of the House of Commons!
The ratio is as high as 90%!
The Progressive Conservatives only won 17 seats, losing 21 seats compared to the previous term's 38 seats.
The Liberal Party has gained absolute dominance!
For the next five years, as long as Joseph Chretien and the Liberal Party don't make big mistakes, their position will be secure.
After the results came out, Joseph Chretien was going to be busy with vassals.
And the capitalists who support the Progressive Conservative Party are all flustered.
Shareholders of the big six banks, in particular, are all worried.
After the results of the general election, the stock prices of the six major banks, which had already hit rock bottom, plummeted again.
Under such circumstances, companies such as Bright Fund and HSBC Bank, which were ordered by Xia Yu, began to act.
It's time to reap the fruits of victory!
bargain!
Crazy bargain hunter!
The stocks of major listed companies are bought at the bottom of the cabbage price.
The most important are the stocks of Scotiabank and Toronto-Dominion Bank,
And keep buying.
Scotiabank, the fourth largest in Canada, has bank assets of more than 48 billion US dollars, but its market value has fallen to 2.55 billion Canadian dollars at this time.
Toronto-Dominion Bank, the fifth largest in Canada, has bank assets of more than 42 billion US dollars, and its market value has dropped to 2.19 billion Canadian dollars at this time.
Compared with their market value at their peak, this market value has shrunk by more than eight layers!
The Toronto 300 index fell by less than five levels. It is conceivable that the tragic situation of bank stocks is definitely the outstanding contributor to the decline of the Toronto 300 index.
The same is true for the other four of the top six banks.
In other words, the largest Royal Bank of Canada, the stock price has shrunk the most, because as the leader, investors generally believe that the probability of being nationalized is the highest.
So the stock is lost and no one wants it.
And Xia Yu didn't want it either.
Joseph Chretien wants to nationalize the bank. This bank is indeed the most suitable first to operate. If he robs this bank, it will make Joseph Chretien's first fire not prosperous enough. Controversial.
The second largest Canadian Imperial Bank and the third largest Bank of Montreal, the Rothschild family are all shareholders, and it is best to nationalize them all, which can maximize the loss of the Rothschild family.
As for the sixth largest bank, according to the distribution of interests, it was targeted by the Mellon consortium.
The shareholders of those banks do not know which banks will be nationalized, or whether all of them will be nationalized, so they are simply meat on the chopping block, and they will be slaughtered by others.
Even if some shareholders act clever when their shares are acquired, thinking that the bank will not be acquired, they will be threatened immediately. If they do not sell, they will be acquired by another bank, and those shareholders will naturally hand over their shares obediently.
In the absence of any room for resistance, they have no choice!
Of course, in order to prevent accidents, the acquisition of these banks is naturally relatively secret and fast.
It only took five days.
Scotiabank and Toronto-Dominion Bank changed hands.
Scotiabank was taken over by the Bright Fund, which acquired a total of 94.8% of the shares at a cost of 2.47 billion Canadian dollars.
The equity is very scattered, held by Bright Fund, HSBC Canada, Royal Bank of Scotland and some offshore shell companies.
Some of the remaining shares are still in the hands of retail investors and have not been acquired. If it is not particularly sensitive now, HSBC Canada will definitely choose to delist.
Toronto-Dominion Bank was taken over by Polaris Capital, which acquired a total of 95.2% of the shares at a cost of 2.13 billion Canadian dollars.
Just to take care of the emotions of the Canadian people and to save some face for Joseph Chretien, Polaris Capital and Wells Fargo did not appear in the ranks of shareholders in the clear, and they all used offshore shell companies to cross-share shares. hold these shares.
When the timing is right later, take out a part of the equity and transfer it to Wells Fargo, and let Wells Fargo stand in the foreground.
These two banks are only a small part of the harvest, just appetizers!
This time, it's not just the banks that have suffered heavy losses in Canada's financial sector.
Canada's insurance industry, with its huge pool of funds, is also a badly-losing bull.
After screening, Manulife, the second largest company in Canada, and Canada Life, the fourth largest company, became the prey of Xia Yu.
The two companies were among the worst-hit insurers, and their major shareholders were hit hard.
Take stock market dips and contact shareholders for acquisitions.
On July 11, Bright Fund acquired a 71.5% stake in Manulife at a cost of C$3.7 billion.
On July 13, Bright Fund acquired a 69.4% stake in Canada Life Insurance Company for 2.9 billion Canadian dollars.
On July 17, Bright Fund acquired a 34% stake in Rob Lauer, Canada's largest retail company, at a cost of C$1.74 billion.
On July 18, Bright Fund acquired a 61.8% stake in George Weston, Canada's largest baking company, at a cost of C$1.87 billion.
On July 22, Bright Fund took advantage of the crisis of the shortage of the capital chain of the Bombardier family's capital chain and started from various aspects, and finally forcibly acquired 68.4% of the equity of Bombardier.
The company, which has strong achievements in tracked vehicles, urban rail transit, railways and high-speed rail locomotives, has not yet ventured into aircraft manufacturing at this time.
But just the various transportation patents within Bombardier, as well as the huge number of skilled workers, are worthy of Xia Yu's temptation.
After completing the acquisition of Bombardier.
At the same time, with the cooperation of the Canadian government, Bright Fund acquired the state-owned aircraft manufacturer Aviation Industry Corporation of Canada, which has suffered losses, for a price of 1.1 billion Canadian dollars.
After the acquisition, the Bright Fund immediately led the merger of Bombardier and Canadian Aviation Industries, and the Bombardier family could not stop it.
After the merger of assets, the equity of the Bombardier family was diluted again, and the Bright Fund held 84.5% of the new Bombardier Group.
Until July 21st.
It's finally here.
Canada's parliament has finally passed a bill to nationalize the big banks.
The nationalized banks are the Royal Bank of Canada, the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, and the Bank of Montreal, the top three banks, and the latter three banks have all been spared.
The Rohir family suffered heavy losses.
And Xia Yu continued to enjoy the feast.
After these three big banks were nationalized, the will of the Canadian government completely dominated the banks.
With Xia Yu's energy, isn't it possible to buy whatever you want?
It's all about the assets that the three major banks will sell!
Although the price is not super low, but in terms of the current market situation, it is definitely the price of cabbage.
The reason for the three major banks to sell assets is also very appropriate. It is necessary to deal with non-performing assets, withdraw funds, and ensure the safety of bank funds.
The first is the energy sector.
With the help of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Pacific Petroleum acquired a 52% stake in the medium-sized Canadian Husky Oil Company at a price of 290 million Canadian dollars.
Then, at a price of 272 million Canadian dollars, it acquired the Canadian Canterlot Energy Company.
Then, with the assistance of RBC and Bank of Montreal, Pacific Petroleum acquired a 51% stake in the giant Suncor Energy at a cost of C$3.4 billion.
Acquired a 35% stake in Canada's Enbridge Gas Company at a cost of C$2.1 billion.
Then there is the mining aspect.
Blue Star Mining acquired a 56% stake in Canada's Barrick Gold at a cost of C$1.7 billion.
This is Canada's largest gold mining company, and is now controlled by the price of cabbage.
Then came Canada's second-largest gold mining company, Gold Canada, which acquired a 43.8% stake at a cost of C$820 million.
Blue Star Mining acquired a 63.8% stake in Canada's Teck Resources at a cost of C$3.46 billion.
Teck Resources Corporation is Canada's largest diversified mining company. Teck Resources operates mining and smelting assets in Canada, the United States and South America, as well as exploration activities worldwide, including mine exploration, development, smelting, refining, recovery and research. .
Teck Resources Canada's main business projects are copper, coking coal, zinc, and energy, as well as the production of special metals such as germanium and indium. The largest coking coal producer in North America, the world's second largest exporter of seaborne coking coal and the world's third largest producer of zinc concentrate.
After eating so many energy and mining companies at once, Pacific Oil Company and Blue Star Mining Company instantly became the giants in the Canadian energy and mining field.
Add to that the two big banks it already controls, insurance companies, and acquired industrial and retail companies.
Xia Yu has become a top leader in the Canadian capital field, and combined with the relationship with the Liberal Party, it can be said that he is a leader.
It's a pity that in the previous June, the major shareholders of the bank headed by Harris Rothier raised funds urgently and bought the equity of the most important companies held by the major banks at a low price.
Otherwise, Xia Yu would be able to run out of funds.
As it is now, only six pillars have been laid in Canada.
But even so, Xia Yu was very satisfied. His current strength in Canada has surpassed Harris Rothier's strength when he was in his prime.
Not to mention now.
Harris Roshir's team was severely damaged, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Rosir family.
But the conflict between Xia Yu and the Rothier family has also reached a new height.
This time, in order to harvest Canadian assets, Xia Yu has exposed a lot.
It's just that Xia Yu didn't care anymore, he was exposed, swallowed a large number of Canadian assets, and participated in the dismemberment of the Chicago consortium.
In terms of overall strength, even if he started a full-scale war with the Rothier family, Xia Yu was not wrong!
There are two flowers on each table.
When the time comes to August.
The battle of the Chicago consortium finally came to an end.
When disaster is imminent, the four major families of the Chicago consortium all fly separately, only to preserve their own strength.
First National Bank of Chicago was acquired by Chase Manhattan Bank and swallowed by the Rockefeller consortium.
Harris Trust and Savings Bank is jointly controlled by a Citibank consortium and a California consortium.
The Northern Trust Bank was wholly owned by Wells Fargo.
As for the International Harvester Company and Deere Company that Xia Yu wanted, 69.2% and 73.4% of the shares were acquired by Polaris Capital Company respectively.
The Deng & Bais Group, which was idle, acquired a 38.4% stake and became a major shareholder, which is enough.
In this battle, the Chicago consortium came to an end, which really stunned everyone's attention.
The Polaris Capital Company, on the other hand, has placed a number on all the forces, and even privately said that Polaris Capital has replaced the Chicago consortium and has become one of the new top ten consortiums. Although it is only at the bottom, the top ten are Top 10!
