Chapter 1751 Merger and Acquisition of Thames

"Zhou Zhengyi's main business is not the information industry. Last time, he only made a big splash in this area because of Bella's request. Logically speaking, even if he still retained some industries before, he shouldn't be so concerned about it."

"At this time, he was hit unexpectedly by other parties. Shouldn't he take advantage of the trend and sell these industries? Anyway, if he doesn't do well, these industries will become a drag on him."

After listening to Huang Feng's words, Li Jin fell into deep thought.

This thing was a little unusual, and he felt something unusual.

"Brother Jin, it's like this. Wan Qing and An Lan also asked them questions. Zhou Zhengyi's wife Deng Yuping said that due to some policy changes in China, their original industry has been hindered, so recently they have begun to really want to work in the information industry. aspect layout.”

"According to An Lan's investigation, Zhou Zhengyi's group has indeed been sending funds to these information companies in recent months. These things should be true."

"Now those information companies in port cities have basically gathered nearly half of their funds, and they are unwilling to give up such a layout."

Huang Feng explained.

"So they decided to ask Jin Qing for help? What do Zhou Zhengyi and the others need?"

"They probably want more than just funds."

Hearing Li Jin's question, Huang Feng nodded and said:

"Brother Jin, you guessed it right. They are not here to ask for financial support. They hope that Jin Qing and they will jointly acquire an Eagle Country Times Media and attract more people through information transformation?"

"Times Media? Murdoch's second largest media company in Eagle Country?"

Li Jin was stunned.

"That's right. What Zhou Zhengyi means is that the reason why the other party is able to harvest our talents in such a big way is not only because of the high overprice offered, but also because of the development prospects in Southeast Asia."

"So he believes that Hong Kong City needs to establish a prospect that is no less than that, so as to have a chance to retain the opportunity of Hong Kong City Information Port."

"It just so happened that he found out that Times Media was looking for someone to take over the company due to poor management, and through an intermediary, he happened to obtain the right of first refusal from internal shareholders of Times Media."

"He hopes to leverage the influence of Times Media, use the backdoor to build an emerging big brand through information transformation, and fight against the challenges in Southeast Asia."

"His current strength is not enough for acquisition, so he hopes that Jinqing, as the largest information group in Hong Kong City, can participate in joint mergers and acquisitions."

"An Lan and the others are very moved, but they are worried about some conspiracy hidden in this regard, so they ask to discuss it with you."

Li Jin lowered his head and thought for a moment. If what Zhou Zhengyi said was true, this would indeed be a rare opportunity.

He has also heard of Times Media Newspaper Group, which is an old media with a long history and a very huge reputation.

These reputations are gained through the baptism of time and are irreplaceable to a certain extent.

If it can acquire its property rights through mergers and acquisitions, it will indeed allow the port city to take the lead in the layout of the information port.

Zhou Zhengyi's motive for proposing a joint merger and acquisition is also very reasonable. Whether he or one of them participates in the merger and acquisition alone, he will inevitably encounter encirclement and suppression.

As the two largest companies in Hong Kong's information industry, it makes sense for them to advance and retreat together.

What's more, although he and Zhou Zhengyi had conflicts before because of Bella's secret order, there was no fundamental conflict between them, and it was reasonable for him to propose an alliance.

But for some reason, Li Jin always felt that there was a hint of conspiracy hidden in it.
