437 Lord of the Heavenly Palace, God Who Controls Capital
Would Young Lord Wang take this opportunity to kick them while they're down?
As everyone knew, he wasn't that kind of person.
Soon, the Sanhe Conglomerate received a reply.
"Patriarch, good news! Heavenly Palace Group has agreed. However, the bad news is... the other party didn't take advantage of our crisis."
Upon hearing this, everyone froze in place, clearly not understanding what the other party was planning.
Mimoto Murao's brow twitched as he said in a deep voice, "Tell me, what are his conditions?"
"In reply to the Patriarch, he gave us two choices."
First, he can acquire the assets we are selling, and the money will arrive within a day. The condition is an acquisition price ten percent lower than the current market value.
Second, he can help us fight against the Colossus Group until they retreat. The condition is thirty percent of the shares in Sanhe Bank."
After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
Hearing it this way, it really didn't count as taking advantage. The first option went without saying; ten percent below market value sounded like a lot, but don't forget, the market value of those companies was still dropping.
Who knew what tomorrow would bring? So ten percent, for them, was equivalent to just cutting their losses in time.
However, while the first option was good, what if they threw that money in and still couldn't save the Sanhe Conglomerate? Wouldn't that be a total waste of effort?
As for the second...
Thirty percent of Sanhe Bank's shares—this truly made them hesitate. This was their lifeblood.
Even if they gave away thirty percent, it wouldn't threaten their status.
But it was equivalent to planting a time bomb next to themselves, and one they had planted with their own hands.
Who knew when this time bomb would explode?
"What do you all think?"
"Patriarch, why don't we choose the first one? I don't believe the Colossus Group has that much capital in hand."
"I agree. As long as we only keep those few core assets, the pressure will be greatly reduced. I believe once the Colossus Group finds out, they certainly won't continue shorting us."
"I agree as well. In the current situation, everything besides our core industries is a burden. Even if we give Heavenly Palace Group thirty percent of the bank's shares and Colossus Group stops shorting us..."
"What about the others? Don't forget, the Lord of Tiangong didn't say he would help us deal with anyone else."
"Can you guarantee those guys on Wall Street won't come looking for trouble? So Patriarch, the first option is the safest."
After this analysis, Mimoto Murao immediately made the decision to package those assets and sell them to Heavenly Palace Group.
On the other side!
Magic City, Xitan Palace!
"Young Master, which one do you think they will choose?"
"As long as they aren't stupid, they will choose to package those non-essential assets and sell them to us."
Seeing Yang Zhongzhou ask this, Yi Zhongtian spoke with absolute certainty.
Hearing this, Wang Shaojun nodded in agreement.
In fact, no matter which one the Sanhe Conglomerate chose, there wasn't much difference for them.
If they chose the first, then Colossus Group would continue shorting until all the money in their hands was exhausted.
If they chose the second, it was even simpler: Colossus Group would retreat, and a different black glove would come up to continue shorting.
By comparison, the other party certainly felt the first option was safer.
But for him, regardless of the choice, the Sanhe Conglomerate was as good as eaten.
"Young Master, they just gave us their reply. As expected, they chose to package those assets and sell them to us."
"Good. Send someone to contact them. Once the contract is signed, Zhongzhou, continue shorting the assets they kept."
They thought that shrinking their assets would reduce the pressure, but this way, Colossus Group could also concentrate its funds.
Compared to the Sanhe Conglomerate, the top three conglomerates were actually much more relaxed.
For no other reason than the water was getting muddier; Wall Street was already fighting with European capital.
They were just caught in the middle, feeling like pieces of food watching two predators fight tooth and nail over who got to eat them.
At the same time, Sakura Country's central bank wasn't idle either, frantically contacting the United States.
If this continued, the economy would collapse.
But after contacting them several times, they still hadn't received any help.
Until now, the US side finally relented, saying they could lend them 80 billion us dollars.
But there was one condition: this money could only be used to deal with European capital.
Hearing this, how could they not know why the other party was suddenly willing to help? It was because they saw their own people being tied down.
To put it nicely, they were lending money; in reality, they wanted to eat from both ends.
They didn't want to lose out at all—they could help Wall Street against European capital without spending a penny of their own.
It was truly killing two birds with one stone!
In the end, they still agreed. Though they agreed on the surface, they thought to themselves: 'I don't care what you say, I'll just lend the money directly to those conglomerates when the time comes.'
As for what they used it for, that wasn't for the US to decide.
Even if the US investigated later, they would have an excuse, wouldn't they?
With the support of this 80 billion us dollars, they were barely able to stabilize the situation, but this was only temporary.
They had to find a way to kick these guys out, otherwise, it would be a bottomless pit.
While everyone was harvesting the Japanese economy, the transaction between Heavenly Palace Group and Sanhe Conglomerate was finalized.
Wang Shaojun had no intention of keeping a low profile; after all, this time, high-profile was exactly what he wanted.
Therefore, after completing the acquisition plan with Sanhe Conglomerate, he immediately had Yi Zhongtian issue an announcement to spread the news.
As soon as this news came out, it instantly hit the trending searches in less than half an hour.
The entire Myanmar A-share market was suddenly in an uproar.
"Damn! Am I still dreaming? Someone tell me, is this real?"
"Let's put it this way: if anyone else said this, it would be 100% fake, but since it's Heavenly Palace Group saying it, it's 100% real."
"I really can't believe this is true. I just checked; that Sanhe Conglomerate is a top-five entity in Sakura Country and one of the six major monopoly capital conglomerates in Sakura Country."
"Against such a behemoth, Brother Jun actually swallowed more than half in one gulp. Brother Jun is truly terrifying."
"Tch~ making a fuss over nothing. It's clear you haven't seen much of the world. If Brother Jun weren't amazing, why would he be called the Lord of Tiangong by all the business moguls?"
"You don't think that just represents the owner of Heavenly Palace Group, do you? Then you're too naive."
"Brother Jun is truly the God of Capital. How long has it been? The market just closed for the morning, right? In just three short hours, he directly annexed 1.6 conglomerates."
"Although the two conglomerates aren't on the same level, it's undeniable that they are still conglomerates."
"Invincible. I can't imagine what it would be like if Heavenly Palace Group went public. It would probably go straight to number one in the world, right?"
"Hard to say. After all, NVIDIA's market value has already exceeded five trillion us dollars. To be honest, I wouldn't even dare burn that much paper money for the Tomb-Sweeping Festival."
In their eyes, although Heavenly Palace Group was huge, among the listed companies, Yuanyang Group's market value was only a bit over 300 billion, and that wasn't even in us dollars.
If five trillion us dollars were converted, that would be over thirty trillion RMB.
With such a comparison, Yuanyang Group was not even an ant in front of the other party.
But this simply couldn't be compared with Heavenly Palace Group, as one was listed and the other was not.
