Chapter 266
【DuPont Chemical invested in Tata Steel Group】

When Tao Xi saw this news, an idea popped into his mind, Modi betrayed him!

If it is constituted according to the shares of the entire Tata Group on site.

More than 1/3 of the presidium members and shareholders stand on his side. If the Tata Group holds an internal shareholder vote, this decision will definitely not be accepted!

Just when Tao Xi was still confused.

Georgina called. "Boss, Jared Dupont invested 3 million U.S. dollars to forcefully inject Tata Steel Group. The presidium itself has a tie vote, but Ratan Tata has exercised a veto!"

Tao Xi was instantly relieved when he heard Georgina's answer.

Ratan Tata must be in a hurry, otherwise he would not have insisted on allowing Tata Steel to accept external investment despite the opposition of all the old guys.

But for an oil-poor country, a 8% off oil contract will definitely shake Ratan Tata's dominance!

As long as no one betrayed him, he believed that the group of Indians would give him an explanation.

Modi, who was far away in Mumbai, put his feet on the table and looked at Ratan Tata opposite him calmly.

"Modi! Don't forget, without the support of the Tata family, you are nothing. Are you using these to repay us?"

Modi's right hand kept tapping on the table, making a "bang bang bang" sound.

Ratan Tata stood up and stared at him angrily. Modi is worthy of being the old man who has been in charge of Tata Steel. Modi said casually with an expression of "I don't care", which quickly broke Ratan Tata's defense. up.

"Modi! I'll ask you again! Hand over the 12% of the steel company's shares! If you go on like this, I can hardly guarantee that you can retire safely!"

Mo Di smiled when he heard "hehe".

He called the Mumbai police station directly in Ratan Tata's presence.

"Hello? Is it the police station? This is Tata Steel. Mr. Ratan Tata wants to call the police and arrest me. I hope you can come here quickly!"

Modi, who has never been so arrogant, proudly touched the tip of his nose

"As I said, since you have evidence of my wrongdoing in the Tata Group, you can let the police take me away!"

"Don't think that you can dictate in front of me just because you have the thigh of DuPont Chemical in the United States. Let me tell you that since I dare to tear myself apart with you in front of the presidium today, it means that I have the courage not to be afraid of you! "

"You used to be my assistant, and you will be my assistant in the future!"

After finishing his harsh words, Modi went straight out of the house, leaving only Ratan Tata standing in the office panting.

"Hey!"

"Moddy and I are at odds, it looks like we have to implement Plan B!"

Jared DuPont and Murdoch in New York glanced at each other, and Jared DuPont said, "Okay! You are ready to sell the shares, and I will let DuPont Chemicals take Tata from you." 26% of the shares in Steel were acquired.”

"Well, then I don't know how soon the ownership of DuPont Chemical's three iron mines in India can be transferred?"

Ratan Tata, as the CEO and actual power holder of the Tata Group, certainly cannot do business at a loss.

The reason why he was able to agree to DuPont Chemical's capital injection to Tata Steel is because DuPont Chemical has mastered the three iron mines with the highest output in India.

Although it was disclosed to the public that DuPont Chemical paid only money, but the shareholding on the additional form has the ownership and trading rights of the three iron mines.

With the entry of DuPont Chemicals, it is just right for him to reform the bloated big guy Tata Steel!

Murdoch heard a voice on the landline wink at Jared Dupont.

Jared DuPont, who received the instruction, replied to Ratan Tata: "Well, DuPont Chemical is a large group, and there are many internal processes that need to go through. You need to wait for this matter."

Jared DuPont did not give Ratan Tata more opportunities to speak.

After casually fooling him with a few words, he hung up the phone.

Murdoch, who had been silent for a long time, asked, "How sure are you of convincing those old guys in your family to nod!"

Jared Dupont sat across from Murdoch, smoking one cigarette after another without speaking.

When Murdoch's office was already enveloped in smoke
Jared Dupont answered slowly: "Tata Motors was taken away by General Motors, and Tata Media was taken away by you. I want Tata Steel and Tata Textiles, otherwise I have no way to explain to the group!"

Murdoch kept rubbing an amber in his hand. "Okay! After the deal is concluded, DuPont Chemicals will come forward to negotiate with the Indian government. The Tata Group is the only company that the Indian government can offer!"

Jared Dupont pondered for a moment and nodded in agreement.

"Okay! I'll let News Corporation pay for the shares of Tata Steel. I'll use the name of Australian Chemicals to buy them. Don't worry, they won't find out."

This is how a battlefield of intrigues begins!

But Ratan Tata did not bet all his treasures on the two of them. He first held the general meeting of shareholders within the Tata Group and then asked his subordinates to prepare for the media conference.

And when everyone leaves
Murdoch, who is the oldest and most experienced in the game, made a phone call: "Hey! Tao Xi, me! Murdoch! Let's talk about a deal!"

Tausi was very surprised by Murdoch's call.

"Are you sure what you and I talked about can be talked on the phone?"

Murdoch hesitated for a moment and waved to the secretary outside the door: "Help me arrange a special plane to Los Angeles. I need to go to Los Angeles to meet a friend."

Just when the secretary was about to ask "who is it", Murdoch waved to the secretary to signal her to go out.

When Tao Xi met Murdoch at the tea house in Chinatown, Tao Xi still had some doubts in his mind.

"DuPont Chemical has entered the game this time, you don't need to worry about Ratan Tata, he is an abandoned child."

Tao Xi took a sip of the green tea in the teacup, looked at Murdoch curiously and replied: "Ratan Tata will lose, he can't win, as long as you dare to buy all his shares in Tata Steel, we will He dared to propose him to the Tata Group’s board of directors, and the shareholders behind him basically have some relationship with Tata Steel.”

Murdoch couldn't help but be satisfied with Taosi's ability to explain the complicated equity structure within the Tata Group so clearly: "It seems that Old Shay has entrusted his grandson to you!"

"Prince Shea will be Panama Commercial Bank's first private shareholder within the next ten years!"

Tao Xi's overly straightforward answer made the cunning Murdoch stunned for a moment.

Because Tao Xi's words are telling him that although the old Shay is old, before the old Shay stepped down in 1995, everyone on the Wells Fargo Bank line will unconditionally stand for Tao Xi.

"I need the magazine business of the Bertelsmann Group!"

When Murdoch, an old and cunning old guy, said this sentence, Tao Xi instantly understood the reason for the current situation.

I have to sigh, Murdoch's control of the situation.

As the largest book publisher in the world, Bertelsmann Group is also the largest distribution channel of major newspaper groups in Europe.

Tao Xi was able to establish Sun Media Group because of the rapid expansion of his Neal Convenience and Neal Hot Dogs.

Even without the distribution channels of Bertelsmann Group in Europe, it is only a matter of time before Taosi's newspapers and TV media enter the European market.

But News Corporation can't, because he is a pure newspaper group.

Although The Times and The Sun have their own distribution channels in the UK, without the assistance of Bertelsmann's huge magazine distribution channels, the influence of these newspapers is very limited.

Moreover, Tao Xi saw Murdoch chatting with the directors of the Bertelsmann Group countless times at private receptions.

It's just that they look like a bad breakup every time!
But Bertelsmann Group, as a company that has mastered 70% of magazine distribution channels in Europe, stands behind DuPont Chemicals!
"You let the DuPont Group enter the game this time, what do you need them to pay?"

The corners of Murdoch's mouth twitched slightly: "India's iron ore market, 90% of the iron ore mining and iron ore exports in Odisha, India, are the result of the DuPont Group. They cannot ignore the potential of Tata Steel. If once DuPont Group’s three iron ore mines in Odisha are taken away by you, it means that DuPont Group will lose the pricing power of iron ore in the Indian futures market!”

"Oh, Mr. Murdoch may have forgotten that you were the one who got me into this vortex!"

"That's right! Because there is no one in Asia that can resist the DuPont Group's counterattack, if you can help me resist the DuPont Group's pressure, I will trade The Times to you afterwards!"

Tausi heard about the Murdoch deal.

His pupils couldn't help constricting violently.

The Times is an excellent asset. Even a fool knows the influence of this newspaper in the UK!
Murdoch seemed to see serious greed and joy in Tausi.

"25% of Bertelsmann's original shares and Random House will take News Corp's business to another level, you have Neil Convenience, but I can't if my throat is controlled by those damn French every day Stop, I will lose sleep!"

"News Corporation pays Bertelsmann 3% of its distribution profits every year."

"I want to do it once and for all!"

Tausi understood Murdoch's ambition.

Although the birth of newspapers is higher than that of magazines, the promotion of magazine adaptation is much higher than that of newspapers because of the selling price of magazines and the popularity of pictures and texts in magazines.

The most glorious time of the magazine was in the First World War

Because of the paper quality of the magazine and the beautiful women in swimsuits on its cover, not only did many soldiers in the trenches carry a magazine in their arms when they were dying, but even some prisoners in the prison camps were proud of having a beautiful woman on the cover.

Gradually, this tradition has been preserved.

After the war, it was very difficult for newspapers to regain their distribution market again. In order to satisfy their current interests, those capitalists gradually allowed some distribution business to be shared by some magazine organizations.

Now, the media tycoon Murdoch has suffered this loss!
The magazines and distribution channels in the hands of the Bertelsmann Group firmly controlled the throat of News Corporation, and Murdoch was forced to set up this situation!

"I can help you withstand the wrath of DuPont Chemicals, but I want everything from the Tata Group!"

"Impossible! It's impossible for DuPont Chemical to be indifferent to me cutting off such a big piece of fat. I need to compensate them!" Murdoch's rebuttal was somewhat strong.

But it was within Tao Xi's expectation.

business!
Isn't it just talking!
Only when each other's interests are maximized can each other's hearts be satisfied.

"Textile and automobiles need to be traded to DuPont Chemicals, otherwise you will not be able to withstand the pressure of General Motors, and you also need to make concessions, but the anger of the Indian government afterwards will let DuPont Chemicals bear it!"

"it is good!"

Just when Tao Xi was going to sit here and drink a few more cups of tea, Murdoch took the initiative to fill up the teacup in his hand.

"Heh, you old fellow actually know the allusion of seeing off guests with full tea?"

"I've been to Chinatown more times than you!" Murdoch waved at Tao Xi with disdain, and Tao Xi walked out of the teahouse with a generous expression.

Tao Xi came to the UK with emotion on his face and met his old friend Prince Charles.

For Murdoch's multiple backstab identities, Tao Xi also has a lot of emotion along the way, but he still has his real thing to do, which is the communication license in the Indian local market.

During this period, India's communication methods were not much different from those in China.

Set up a paging station and Motorola's agent frantically set up a BB machine paging line and a paging server in India.

Tao Xi has always been very interested in the wild market.

He just needs to establish rules in this barbaric market, no matter how many first comers in this market, they have to come to him to worship the mountain.

"Hahahaha! Tao Xi, you are really awesome!"

"I've already seen the island I bought near Norway, thank you so much!"

Prince Charles came up and gave Tao Xi a hug, followed by a kiss.

After all, this is real money. Although Prince Charles verbally said that he would buy the island, Tao Xi couldn't be ignorant.

"After all, you did me such a big favor in India, this is nothing, and have you seen the roster of residents on the island?"

Charles nodded with satisfaction: "That's great! It would be great if there are some white people on the island."

Tao Xi couldn't help curling his lips when he heard Charles' dissatisfaction: "If the British Parliament allows immigration insurance to enter the British market, I can definitely meet your needs."

Prince Charles shook his head regretfully.

Tao Xi, as the initiator of immigration insurance, has not been cast aside by others, but the group of Middle Easterners who have played tricks on immigration insurance in Japan have been ordered by the Japanese National Assembly to withdraw from the Japanese market.

You must know that the business of immigration insurance alone has brought nearly 30 Japanese immigrants to the Middle East!
Moreover, after Japan, many countries have banned the development of this project, including the United Kingdom. You must know that this project is digging their old roots.

There is no reason why the state subsidizes retired citizens, and the retired citizens take the state's money to spend abroad.

If it weren't for the barrenness of the Indian market and the most important thing he lacks is population, maybe India would also be in a hurry.

"Tausi, did you find something good in India when you came here in person this time? I'm a little jealous of your ability to earn money in India. Not long ago, Ratan Tata complained to me that you stole towers. What about the assets of the Tower Group."

"This is normal business practice!"

Tao Xi just laughed at this matter: "But I really found a market in India. If Charles is interested in this matter, we can cooperate together!"

Charles made a resigned expression.

"communication!"

"The mobile communication market in India is blank. If you can help me get a license for the mobile communication market in India, I believe that your and my pockets will be full of money in the future!"

Charles hesitated when he heard this.

After all, no matter which country's mobile communication market is "secret" to them, let alone India, which has some pro-Soviet countries since the 60s.

"I need to think about this, and this cake is so big, it would be difficult for us to swallow it alone."

Tao Xi smiled and put his arms around Prince Charles: "Invest in me, when you are in the offshore account of the Panama Commercial Bank, I will pay the proceeds on time. I heard that the infrastructure of those islands is very expensive. of!"
