It rose from 11% to over 34%, the threshold for a veto, and then exceeded two-thirds!
With these, Lin Jicheng had the means to control the Field Group!
However, while Lin Jicheng was busy with his operations, Earl Freeman Field was basking in the joy of having acquired a huge sum of money, completely unaware that his company had been restructured...
...
Some time later, in the meeting room of the Field family castle.
Freeman Field was in a good mood these past few days. He had just received the funds from the mysterious Oriental lady and used them to quickly pay off several of his most pressing debts, thus stabilizing the situation.
Reclining in the executive chair in the conference room, Freeman Field experienced his first sense of peace in months. It was at this moment that he began to reflect on everything that had happened—
In fact, as a traditional European family, Freeman Field did initially have a somewhat wary and disdainful attitude towards the Asian girl with black hair and black eyes.
After all... he was an old European nobleman, while the other party was at most a newly rich Asian, and was not even worthy of being on equal footing with him!
Moreover, even with his connections in Asia, he couldn't figure out Lin Jicheng's background. Initially, he also had great doubts about Lin Jicheng's identity.
Is this person pretending to be rich to scam me?
However, all doubts vanished into thin air beneath billions in cash…
They gave us so much!
The thought of exchanging the hot potato of Whale Song Islands for so much money made Freeman Field feel that he had made a very correct decision!
What mysterious Asian tycoon Lin Jicheng... he's just a sucker!
These inexperienced and clueless Asians are only fit to be suckers! Luckily, I made a wise decision and saved the entire Field Company!
Count Feld grew somewhat smug, and his good mood lasted until there was a knock on the door of his conference room. Entering were his annoying younger brother, Tevez, the company's chief lawyer and CFO, and an unfamiliar Asian woman—
It was Lin Si!
Lin Si was dressed in a standard business suit. Without any pleasantries, she simply placed a computer in front of him and began speaking fluent English. However, her words sent a chill down Freeman Feld's spine:
“Mr. Freeman Field, right?”
"Starting today, we will hold more than 67 percent of the shares of Field International and will be the company's sole creditor!"
On the computer screen appeared a clear equity tree diagram. This explicit content struck Freeman like a lightning bolt!
Freeman Field's face drained of color instantly. He looked at his brother in disbelief, while Tevez averted his gaze, preventing the two from making eye contact.
"What...what do you mean by this?!"
"Simply put, our Chengxin Financial Company has now become the actual controller of Field International!"
"What!"
Freeman Feld let out a scream!
"That's impossible!"
"That is the truth. As for the actual situation, I welcome Count Feld to personally investigate!"
Lin Si seemed to have anticipated the other person's shock and breakdown; regardless of their emotions, she maintained a calm and professional demeanor throughout.
"Currently, our idea is—"
"To prevent family assets from depreciating due to decision-making deadlock, our Chengxin Financial Company has decided to establish a 'Field Family Perpetual Trust,' into which all your assets will be injected and managed by our professional committee."
"No, no, no... this isn't right, is it?!"
Even if Freemanfield was slow to realize it, he had come to his senses by now:
"I've managed this company for decades. Are you saying that I will no longer have any management or decision-making power over this company?"
"And what about these specialized committees... You control these committees yourselves, don't you? You can use these committees to control all the affairs of Field International!"
Lin Si looked up at Earl Freeman Field, her expression calm, with a faint, triumphant smile on her face.
“Earl Field…”
"In any case, you are still the head of the Field family, you still enjoy your title, you can live in your castle, and continue to be an elegant nobleman."
"only……"
"You no longer need to worry about these cumbersome business roles and debts!"
Upon hearing this, Freeman Field seemed to have had his spine removed, instantly collapsing into the centuries-old sofa chair...
At this point, what's the point of any sophistry or verbal conflict?
Freeman Field didn't misunderstand the share certificate; he understood it far too well...
With this thing, it seems... no matter how much I struggle, it's useless!
In other words, the assets that his family had inherited for a hundred years, the entire Field International Company, had now completely fallen into the hands of others!
Freeman Field completely lost control, while Lin Jicheng, on the other hand, easily gained control of the entire Field International Group through this operation.
Field International Group truly lives up to its reputation as a century-old European conglomerate, with subsidiaries spanning multiple sectors including logistics, hotels, department stores, design, and restaurants.
Upon gaining control of the company, Lin Jicheng swiftly issued several orders—
"Lin Si, after we've taken control of the Feld Group, we still have a lot to do..."
"Doesn't the Field family own many luxury goods workshops? We just acquired a lavender plantation, so the two families can definitely have a closer collaboration!"
"Oh, and Field Department Store... We'll set up a dedicated salon for our essential oils in a prime location here, opening up our offline channels..."
"The Field Group has a proven track record in the tourism industry, otherwise they wouldn't have acquired such a large project as the Whale Song Islands... Therefore, we can sell the premium wines from our vineyards through Field Hotels in dozens of countries around the world..."
"Only in this way can we gain more benefits!"
Under Lin Jicheng's design and through the specific operations of Lin Si and Alfred, the entire Field Group was quickly revived.
By integrating resources, building an ecosystem, forming a massive conglomerate, and reaping enormous profits...
