Rebirth of the Strongest Tycoon

Chapter 1508 Ma Zai takes the initiative to defect

The Rothschild family has been prosperous for hundreds of years.

In the process of becoming the sixth empire in the world, it was inevitable to make enemies with countless forces.

But on the other hand.

There are also many younger brothers supported or recruited by the Rothschild family.

Although there are many like the Rockefeller family and the Morgan family who have grown in strength and taken the initiative to devour their masters.

There are also people like the Barrett family who passively defect.

But there are still many who have been following them.

The reason why I have never betrayed is that some of them are because they live a relatively comfortable life and do not want to betray, and some of them do not have the guts and courage to betray.

And this time.

The scene where NatWest Bank was swallowed up by the Bright Consortium, but the Rothschild family was helpless, really stimulated many people and gave many people courage.

Shock Rhodes is one of them.

Speaking of which, the Rhodes family has followed the Rothschild family for more than a hundred years and has always been a subsidiary family force of the Rothschild family.

Although the Rhodes family is not a top family in Europe, it is still considered a second-rate family.

At the end of the last century, Cecil Rhodes began to make a fortune, and accepted investment from the Rothschild family at that time, and founded De Beers in Luxembourg to engage in the jewelry sales industry.

Cecil Rhodes was very capable and was protected by the Rothschild family, so De Beers was running smoothly.

However, as the Rothschild family injected capital one after another, the Rhodes family's shareholding ratio in De Beers continued to decline.

Even so, it doesn't matter to Cecil Rhodes. After all, the equity has shrunk, but the total wealth has increased, and with the support of the Rothschild family, De Beers has always been in control. Rhodes The influence of the Si family continues to expand.

But something happened later that Cecil Rhodes couldn't accept. In the end, he fell seriously ill and died in depression, leaving the family to the next generation.

This matter involves two other families, the Oppenheimer family and the Morgan family.

1 A member of the Oppenheimer and Morgan families established a company in South Africa - Anglo American South Africa.

At that time, South Africa was being colonized by the British, and Ernst Oppenheimer used the influence of the British military to have a high degree of influence in South Africa.

Then it formed an alliance with the Morgan family, allowing South Africa's Anglo American Resources to grow at an extremely fast pace.

Of course, the dominance of Anglo American in South Africa has always been in the hands of the Oppenheimer family.

But after it grew and grew, it was inevitable that the Morgan family also had their thoughts and planned to take control of Anglo American in South Africa.

At that time, the struggle between the Rothschild family, the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family had turned from dark to bright.

in this case.

The Rothschild family spent a lot of effort and successfully brought the Oppenheimer family to their side.

The Morgan family was directly cheated, and most of their influence in Anglo American in South Africa was wiped out. After that, they could only accept that their shareholding ratio was declining step by step.

The process is complex, but the result is simple.

The Rothschild family sold the Rhodes family and allowed South Africa's Anglo American to take over De Beers. Part of the Rothschild family's equity in De Beers was converted into part of South Africa's Anglo American.

De Beers also cross-holds a stake in South Africa's Anglo American.

The two companies had cross-shareholdings, and the controlling party became the Oppenheimer family, with the Rothschild family ranking second in influence.

The frustrated party, besides the Morgan family, was the Rhodes family who became victims and founded De Beers.

But with the strength of the Rhodes family, facing the towering Rohir family, they had no choice but to accept this result.

Since then, the Rhodes family has kept a low profile and quietly developed the Rhodes Group, becoming a large group through the efforts of three generations.

Bright Fund, front desk.

Xiao Ke Rhodes, dressed in a crisp suit, walked in with his assistant and bodyguard.

After the assistant came forward and said a few words to the front desk staff, someone immediately guided Xiao Ke Rhodes to the elevator.

And at this time.

George Berkeley, who was in the president's office, also received the notice from the front desk and immediately ordered his secretary to get ready.

It didn't take long.

George Berkeley heard footsteps approaching from far away. When he stood up, he happened to see the figure of Shaw Rhodes appearing at the door.

He smiled, came out of his desk, and greeted Shaw Rhodes warmly.

Seeing George Berkeley's move, Xiao Ke Rhodes also smiled and quickened his pace.

"Welcome, Mr. Xiao Ke!"

"Thanks to Mr. George's invitation, I can come to this palace that the entire European financial community is looking forward to visiting."

Holding George Berkeley's hand tightly, Shock Rhodes boasted.

Knowing that the other party was flattering, George Berkeley was still very happy.

"Mr. Xiao Ke, you are exaggerating. Please sit down."

"Want something?"

"Black coffee with a lump of sugar, no milk."

"..."

After a few brief greetings, someone started preparing coffee.

Xiao Ke Rhodes' bodyguard was also standing outside the door, and there were only a few people in the office.

"Mr. Xiao Ke, I'm very happy that you can come to my place. Please rest assured that we will not be harsh to our friends."

When George Berkeley looked at Xiao Ke Rhodes just now, he noticed that the other person seemed to be uneasy, so he expressed his attitude sincerely at the beginning.

In fact, both sides are well aware of what we are going to talk about today.

Although it was George Berkeley who sent the invitation, the moment Shaw Rhodes really chose to accept the invitation, it meant that Shaw Rhodes had already made his choice.

The other party was so knowledgeable and courageous. Of course, George Berkeley also had to show his sincerity.

Today's theme is "cooperation", with only one purpose - win-win!

Soon, the coffee was brewed and served.

The two started a chat-like negotiation while drinking coffee.

The whole process was harmonious, with no lions opening their mouths or waving sticks threatening to break your bones.

In just half an hour, cooperation in two major areas was achieved.

First, the Rhodes family transferred all of its 13.4% stake to Bright Fund at a premium of 10%, completely withdrawing from the company that their family had been involved in for 99 years since its creation.

Secondly, Rhodes Group will reach strategic partnerships with more than a dozen companies under the Guangming Consortium such as Guangming Warbao Company, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Group, Royal Bank of Scotland, and ap Moller-Maersk in the next week. relation.

The moment when Shock Rhodes and George Berkeley held hands for the last time.

This means that the Rhodes family has completely said goodbye to the Rothschild family, fully defected to the Bright Consortium, and become the mascot of the Bright Consortium.

at the same time.

Xia Yu, who was far away in Xiangjiang, also took action again on the matter of Anglo American in South Africa and had a phone call with John Chris Morgan.

A deal is struck.

Morgan Stanley, the third largest shareholder of South Africa's Anglo American Resources, transferred all its holdings to Jiuding Securities Company.

After Jiuding Securities took over the equity, it immediately transferred the equity to Guangming Fund.

At this point, Bright Fund's shareholding ratio in South Africa's Anglo American Company instantly increased to 37.47%, surpassing the Oppenheimer family and becoming the largest shareholder!

After taking over the equity of De Beers held by the Shaw Ke Rhodes family, Bright Fund's shareholding ratio in this company also soared to 34.78%, becoming the second largest shareholder, one distance away from the largest shareholder South Africa's Anglo-American The resource company’s 35.27% shareholding ratio is only 0.49%!
