Li Du wanted to say, this horse is embarrassing.
He looked at Kalestein, who was smiling, and Cole, who was smiling, and sat back in his seat.
Now that he can sit back and watch, Cole and Calestan are going to fight.
Li Du remembered Aubrey Teutton, an Englishman who had immigrated to England, about forty-five or sixteen years old, who liked to squint and talk, and who was an investor, of which the Harry Winston Group was his largest investment.
The reason why I remember this person very clearly is because the last time Li Du and Kalestan clashed, many shareholders helped Kalestan suppress themselves.
Among them, Aubrey Teutonic has been particularly active, and he is seen as a central figure in the Kalestan camp.
Now the core figure has turned against the water, and gave Kalestan a yin knife at the critical moment.
Li Du could see that Aubrey-Teutonic was a dark line that Cole had buried in Kalestan's camp, and it was clear that the battle between the two sides had already begun.
This is a bit of a spy war drama and a palace fight drama, Li Du pondered while watching it, and relished it.
As soon as Aubrey Teuton spoke, some of the shareholders who had been forced to side with him by Kalestan shut up, and their eyes became intriguing.
Shareholders have been following Calestan because they believe that Calestan is stronger, more powerful, and has a greater say in the Harry Winston Group.
Now that they found out that Calestan was in a bad situation, they were in no hurry to take a stand.
Like Li Du's purpose, they also chose to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Cole owns an absolute stake in the Winston Group, but he is perceived by shareholders as lacking vision and having a weak hand.
Although Calestan may seem polite and always smile with rimless glasses, he has a tough style and is more like a leader.
On top of that, Cole has a lot of equity, but it's limited to the immortal Harry Winston Group.
Calestan has a lot of energy, the Fitz family is a big family on the East Coast of the United States, they have been working in the mining and gem industry, and they have a wider network and more channels in high society.
The family background has added a lot of glory to him, but that is a bonus, and the foundation and foundation are still the shares in his hands.
If he doesn't have a stake in the Harry Winston Group, the shareholders still won't support him.
At the end of the day, they're here because we're all shareholders of the Harry Winston Group, and their interests are tied to the Winston Group.
Now, it looks like Kalestein is going to be forced to trade his stake.
The contract made it clear that if he found a million-carat diamond mine, Calestan would sell his 14 units at a market price of $12 million per unit.
The diamond ore found by Li Du is very abundant, estimated to be two million carats, which is a decent or even low amount for a diamond mine in South Africa.
But it's already a bonanza, and it's no problem to use it to complete the contract.
Calestan couldn't stop laughing, he realized that he didn't have a helper, and Cole suddenly had a helper by his side.
This scene made Li Du wary, Cole is not so mediocre as he looks, on the contrary, perhaps in the jewelry industry, Cole's business acumen is average, but he is a master when it comes to playing with means and corporate politics.
Kerr pressed hard and let Calestan complete his contract.
Kalestan had no choice but to use procrastination.
"The contract deadline is at the end of the year, and that's when it becomes legally effective, and I have to continue to observe Lee's diamond mines," he said. That's a reasonable request, isn't it?"
The eight shareholders looked at each other, and finally had to stand on the platform.
Someone said vaguely: "According to the contract, this requirement is okay." ”
"Yes, after all, it is a contract involving a huge amount of one or two hundred million, and this kind of matter is not urgent, so let's find a lawyer to talk about it. ”
Cole was helpless, he looked at Li Du, Li Du shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, then wait for the lawyer to negotiate, everyone put the contract away, I have confidence in my mine anyway." ”
It is good to trade later, Li Du has no energy to operate the equity change during this time, and he has to prepare for the upcoming engagement party.
Unlike the previous purchase of equity, it was difficult for him to get this equity smoothly, and even at the end of the year, he knew that Calestan would do everything possible to obstruct it, and even find someone to obstruct it.
Calestan has a valuable stake in the company, and it is inevitable that the market value of the Harry Winston Group will increase significantly as it sees a recovery and better development opportunities.
In his agreement with Li Du, one unit of equity was only 12 million, which was the market price at the time, when Harry Winston had just stabilized and had not yet launched an opal series of jewelry.
Today, Hai Jui Winston has continuously launched popular new jewelry, and has begun to lead a new trend, and its market value has increased significantly, and people have accepted it for 20 million yuan per unit of equity.
So how could Calestan willingly sell his stake at a low price? Moreover, Li Du also discovered a diamond mine, which is for the service of Hai Jui-Winston, so in this way, the market value of Hai Jui-Winston Group will continue to increase in the future.
But if Kalestan is disgusting with Li Du and Cole at best, or procrastinating to make the two uncomfortable, the deal will definitely take shape eventually, because they have a contract in hand.
Li Du likes the United States very much, the law is formulated to be obeyed, everyone has to abide by the law, and it is useless to find someone to find a relationship.
Cole's main purpose in convening this equity meeting was to facilitate the change of equity, and since it failed to achieve its purpose, the meeting was not interesting.
After a hasty chat about some company development plans, Cole announced the dismissal of the meeting, and then left Li Du to have a deep chat.
But before that, Calestan contacted Cole in a low-key manner, and the two of them went to the office for a private chat.
Li Du didn't know what the two of them were going to do, so he released the little flying insects to monitor, but unfortunately the little flying insects could only watch and not listen.
He saw Calestan show Cole something on his phone, and Cole frowned and tapped his fingers on the table.
Later, Callestein leaves, and Cole's secretary finds Li Du and asks him to meet Cole.
Entering the office, Cole poured Li Du a glass of red wine and said, "The good goods in the Boston manor, have a different flavor, try it?"
Li Du took a sip, shook his head and said: "I lack taste for red wine, in this regard, I still need to accept more edification, I need to learn more things." ”
Cole laughs, "Go with the flow, you'll love it." Also, what do you think of Calestan's stakes? Whether or not to change the plan, it seems that he doesn't want to give up these shares. ”
Li Du put down his wine glass and said firmly: "I want his equity, otherwise, I will not use the diamond mine as the group's warehouse, because there is no need for that." ”
He didn't know what Calestan had talked about earlier, which had changed Cole's position.
Anyway, his position won't change, and Cole had better not change either, otherwise Li Du will use other methods to get back what belongs to him.
