382 Shocked Hong Kong(1/2)
Then Wang Guanxi smiled at Brian Schreiber who was stunned on the side and said, "Mr. Brian Schreiber, what's wrong with you?"
He just said casually that he borrowed $750 million, but he didn't expect that Brian Schreiber was stunned on the spot.
"Mr. Brian Schreiber!"
Wang Guanxi shouted again.
After all, you are the person in charge of Aig Asia Pacific. You have never seen any world before, which makes you stunned?
Brian Schreiber then came back to his senses and took a breath: "Mr. Wang, you are so energetic, you borrowed $750 million at will."
Wang Guanxi smiled faintly: "It's just $750 million, not much."
Brian Schreiber kneeled for Wang Guanxi again.
Although he has worked in Aig Group for many years, he is just a senior worker. He has never had so much money and can borrow it casually, which shows Wang Guanxi's personal reputation and personal energy.
You can get 750 million US dollars with just one mouthful. This is awesome in the circle of financial tycoons on Wall Street.
He has been promoted to the head of Aig Group Asia for a short time and is far from comparable.
If this $750 million is not much, then what is more?
Then Brian Schreiber said: "Mr. Wang, we have a happy cooperation, and the board of directors of aig Group is also very satisfied with this transaction."
This time, it almost doubled its equity in Huntington Bank!
500 million shares, that's $750 million!
Huntington Bank's share price is $0.8 per share, with 500 million shares worth $400 million, while Wang Guanxi spent $750 million to acquire it at a premium.
That's a whole 350 million US dollars more.
However, it is very normal to acquire high-quality companies, high-quality assets, and premium acquisitions.
If Aig Group hadn’t been short of money, Aig Group would not have sold the equity of Huntington Bank!
In the future, everyone knows that Huntington Bank will sooner or later get out of the financial crisis, and its stock price will gradually rebound.
You should know that the stock price of Huntington Bank was at $15 per share in 2006, but the subprime mortgage crisis and financial crisis directly made the stock price fall into shit.
Aig Group also suffered heavy losses, but it cannot continue to consume. Aig Group still owes US$85 billion in debt and the interest rate is also very high.
Aig Group is now selling assets around the world to repay debts.
"Mr. Brian Schreiber, we cooperate happily." Wang Guanxi shook hands with him and smiled: "We will continue to cooperate if we have the opportunity in the future."
At noon, the two had lunch together.
This time, Wang Guanxi acquired 50% of the equity of Huntington Bank and officially announced that she had entered the banking industry in the United States.
The management of Huntington Bank is currently a member of the American International Group.
The chairman naturally needs to be replaced. As for the president, it depends on the situation.
Then Wang Guanxi asked about Huntington Bank.
"Mr. Brian Schreiber, tell me a brief story about the Huntington family."
Brian Schreiber smiled and said, "The Huntington family has nothing to do with Huntington Bank."
This Huntington Bank was originally a Huntington family bank in the United States, but it suffered a major impact decades ago due to poor management.
Especially from April 1979 to November 1982, the United States' economic crisis came, lasting for 44 months.
After the 1980s, the US economy began to recover.
From 1979 to 1982, the Huntington family received capital injection from American International Group.
In the following days, the Huntington family was already selling their shares, and their shareholding ratio has reached an negligible level.
"The entire Huntington family has long been decayed. There is currently a woman who is an executive at Huntington Bank, named Jennifer Huntington. She also owns 0.1% of the shares, inherited from her father, James Huntington."
James Huntington is the founder of Huntington Bank. He has passed away. In addition, his private business has been failing and has been reducing his holdings in the bank. There is still 0.1% left to his daughter Jennifer Huntington.
Wang Guanxi asked: "How old is Jennifer Huntington? Are she beautiful?"
Brian Schreiber smiled and said, "I am in my forties and I am very beautiful when I was young, but an accident caused a broken arm. Her husband Henry Lawrence also died on the spot. She and her daughter survived the car accident."
Wang Guanxi said regretfully: "That's really unfortunate."
Brian Schreiber said again: "By the way, she has a beautiful daughter named Jennifer Lawrence, this name is the combination of her and her dead husband."
Wang Guanxi smiled and said, "Brien Schreiber, you know so well? Could it be that he had a while with her?"
Brian Schreiber shook his head and smiled, "This is not, I just had a good relationship with her. Seeing that she broke her arm, I recommended her to return to work at Huntington Bank."
"Although Huntington Bank has nothing to do with the Huntington family, James Huntington has always been married on the spot and worked very hard. However, because she lacked an arm, she could not continue to be promoted. She is still a middle-level manager of the bank."
"And her daughter Jennifer Lawrence went to the show business because she was very beautiful."
Wang Guanxi suddenly asked: "Have you gone to the entertainment industry? Jennifer Lawrence?"
Brian Schreiber said before that he didn't pay much attention to it. Now that he heard about the entertainment industry, he always feels that this name is a bit familiar.
Then Wang Guanxi continued to ask: "Her daughter is Jennifer Lawrence?? Has she entered the entertainment industry?"
Brian Schreiber laughed and said, "Yes, her daughter is Jennifer Lawrence, what's wrong?"
Wang Guanxi suddenly thought of something.
Jennifer Lawrence seems to have debuted in the past or two years and will become the Oscar winner in the future.
This can be available.
Now Jennifer Lawrence is only 18 years old.
Jennifer Lawrence's mother, Jennifer Huntington, broke an arm and had been at Huntington Banking Corporation, which seemed to be promoted to oversee the management of Aig Group at Huntington Bank.
Wang Guanxi immediately spoke, "Mr. Brian Schreiber, please inform me of the mother and daughter of Jennifer Huntington and Jennifer Lawrence, and let them come to Hong Kong."
Jennifer Huntington, who made her a director, joined the board of directors, and served as director.
Jennifer Lawrence, the future Oscar winner, is in Gbe Group, and it will be temporarily decided in the future.
Brian Schreiber smiled and said, "This is OK."
Having lunch for two days, the news of Blackshirt Group's acquisition of Huntington Bank has been reported in Hong Kong media.

Hong Kong's financial and banking circles were shocked!
The whole weekend of Hong Kong has been focused on the acquisition of Huntington Bank by Blackshirt Group.
"Damn, the Black Shirt Group has been out of news for two months. I thought they were going to disappear, but I didn't expect it to come out again!"
"There have been news that Blackshirt Group has invested in Tengxun Group in the past two months. Amazon has suffered huge losses. It is said that Blackshirt Group's capital flow has dried up. Unexpectedly, it suddenly acquired Huntington Bank for US$750 million!"
"It seems that the strength of the Black Shirt Group is far beyond our imagination."
"US$750 million is HK$5.8 billion. I thought Blackshirt Group really had no cash flow, but I didn't expect it to be underestimating it."
"I said before that Blackshirt Group was deeply trapped because of its investment in Tengxun Group and Amazon.com, and its capital flow was exhausted. So I cooperated with Shangri-La Hotel Group to crack down on Blackshirt Hotel Group, grass!"
"I had known it, I shouldn't have cooperated with Sumitomo Insurance. I'd cut off my cooperation with Blackshirt Insurance Company!"
"Can't Sumitomo Insurance, Malaysian Bank, and Central Asian banks in Indonesian combined to afford 750 million US dollars?"
"The current net asset scale of Black Shirt Group must have exceeded 50 billion, right?"
"Hong Kong's financial industry will make a comeback!"
"The financial war between the Hong Family Alliance, Zheng Family Consortium, Huang Family Consortium and Black Shirt Group has been made into movies, with a box office of 50 million. Now Black Shirt Group has once again chosen to be high-profile. Is it because it is going to engage in a financial war with other financial institutions?"
