Chapter 952: Negotiation of Deceitful Negotiations
Under the influence of human manipulation factors, the bus accident and a series of subsequent developments have been in a state of boiling public opinion.
In addition, newspapers such as Jiuding Daily, Hong Kong Economic Journal, and Sing Pao have further analysed the responsibilities and obligations of Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited in terms of public safety.
It's like roasting the Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited on a fire, flipping it back and forth with a knife and brushing it with oil and sprinkling it with chili noodles.
In just three days!
The market capitalisation of The Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited plummeted from HK$420 million at the beginning to over HK$310 million.
The market value has shrunk by as much as 26 percent!
Although in terms of price-to-earnings ratio and true earnings prospects, a market capitalisation of more than HK$310 million is not necessarily a reflection of the true value of Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited.
But in this kind of deep whirlpool of public opinion, many unreasonable things will become reasonable.
Unless there is a large organisation willing to support the Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited.
However, in the face of the general trend and the focus of public anger, not every institution has the strength and qualifications to support the bottom, let alone at such a sensitive time.
Just when the senior management of the Kowloon Motor Bus Company Limited was glad that it was finally closed on Friday, they planned to use the weekend to reverse the bad situation.
Yuan Tianfan, a key training employee of Jiuding Securities Company, came to the chairman's office of Jiuding Building before he got off work.
Looking at Yuan Tianfan, who was sitting in front of him, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Xia Yu's eyes.
Although Yuan Tianfan is not very old, he exudes a calm and confident temperament, and his first impression is very comfortable.
In addition to his temperament, his abilities are also good.
Yuan Tianfan has also been honing for a long time in Jiuding Securities Company, because he has been trained by Wang Qi, and Yuan Tianfan himself is also competitive, so he has made rapid progress and has made great achievements.
This time, in order to sharpen Yuan Tianfan's other abilities, at the suggestion of Wang Qi, Xia Yu appointed Yuan Tianfan to be responsible for forming a team to acquire the equity of the Macau Entertainment Company in the hands of gambling king Ye Han.
"Tianfan, are things going well?"
Xia Yu crossed his palms on the table and asked with a smile.
Yuan Tianfan said slowly: "Chairman, before this, things went relatively smoothly, from the beginning Ye Han was completely reluctant to talk, to now we have talked about the most critical step, and the work we can do has reached the limit." ”
"Now Ye Han has made a request and wants to negotiate with you personally, otherwise he will not see us again. ”
Xia Yu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Ye Han to want to see him.
However, it can also be seen from Ye Han's request that he is no longer resistant to selling equity, and the key depends on whether Xia Yu can convince him.
Xia Yu thought for a while and asked Yuan Tianfan, "How did you negotiate with Ye Han?"
Yuan Tianfan replied again: "We are executing according to the strategy you gave, and we have always shown that we want to acquire SJM...... It was because Ye Han had begun to believe that we really wanted to fight with Ho Hongshen, so he was willing to talk to us. ”
"It's just that he's not stupid, so he doesn't trust us all now, and he wants to talk to you face-to-face, probably to confirm your attitude. ”
"And we analyzed, Ye Han is actually worried that you are crossing the river dragon, and after fighting He Hongshen down, you will overpower him, which is a kind of worry for him. ”
Xia Yu smiled faintly, bowed his head slightly, and said: "I know, you make an appointment with him again, we will meet tomorrow morning, the place will be determined by him, and I will talk to him personally." ”
Yuan Tianfan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and nodded solemnly: "Okay, I'll go to it later." ”
"Go ahead!"
......
The next morning, Xia Yu took Yuan Tianfan and others to meet Ye Han, who was already seventy-five years old, in a hotel box near the port of Aomen.
Xia Yu met Ye Han for the first time.
Ye Han's first impression of him was that his ears were very large and protruding, and Ye Han's dice listening skills also relied on his ears.
"Mr. Ye, I have heard your name for a long time, and I am finally honored to meet you today!"
Xia Yu laughed loudly, stretched out his hand and walked towards Ye Han.
Ye Han also greeted Xia Yu with a warm smile: "Mr. Xia, you are the most legendary boss, I can get to know you in my ancient years, and I have no regrets about dying." ”
Xia Yu hurriedly smiled and waved his hand: "Mr. Ye is blessed and long-lived, such an unlucky word has nothing to do with you." ”
Ye Han shook his head and smiled: "Mr. Xia is really good at talking, please take a seat!"
"Sit together!"
On Xia Yu's side, Yuan Tianfan and the others sat silently around Xia Yu, sitting face to face with Ye Han and his subordinates.
After the waiter served tea, Xia Yu said straight to the point: "Mr. Ye, let's hit it off at first sight, don't bend around, just open the skylight and say something, Tianfan told me yesterday that you plan to talk to me personally, I don't know what you have for me?"
Ye Han restrained his warm smile, his somewhat cloudy eyes became deep, and he said lightly: "I don't dare to give advice, it's just that everyone is in an equal position and has a good discussion." ”
"There is a way that buying and selling is not benevolent and righteous, no matter whether things work out today or not, I hope Mr. Xia will not mind. ”
Ye Han specially learned about Xia Yu's past, so he didn't want to offend Xia Yu too much and be remembered by Xia Yu, after all, there were not a few people who Xia Yu cleaned up, and those who went against Xia Yu didn't end well.
He is an old bone, and his strength is far inferior to Xia Yu, if he is targeted by Xia Yu, he feels that even if he does not die, he will shed his skin.
So it's better to get a preventive shot in advance, so as not to have something that he doesn't want to see later.
Xia Yu smiled and said sincerely: "It should be so, talk about business, you want both parties to be willing, business is a temporary thing, friendship is a lifelong thing." ”
Ye Han smiled and nodded: "Yes pole! Yes pole!"
After laughing, Ye Han coughed lightly and asked solemnly: "Mr. Xia, Manager Yuan, they have also talked to me many times, I heard that you are planning to fully acquire SJM?"
Although Ye Han's tone when he said this question was not hurried, Xia Yu still knew his true state of mind from Ye Han's sharp gaze from time to time.
Xia Yu's face did not change, and said lightly: "Yes, I am very interested in SJM. ”
Ye Han couldn't deny it, and continued to ask: "Your career has always been in Xiangjiang, and it has nothing to do with the spinach industry. ”
"And the spinach industry is prejudiced by society, with your net worth and influence, shouldn't you cherish your feathers?
Xia Yu pondered for a moment, looked at Ye Han's burning gaze, and said with a light smile: "Originally, no one else knew about this, but I don't think I will say it, and Mr. Ye will not worry about selling the equity to me, so I will say it too." ”
"But please also ask Mr. Ye, including your subordinates, to help me keep it secret!"
Ye Han frowned slightly, looked at Xia Yu seriously, nodded and said, "Yes, I guarantee with my personality, no matter whether today's matter is successful or not, the news will definitely not spread from me!"
"Otherwise, all the 10% equity I hold in SJM will be given to you for free!"
"You guys have to keep your mouth shut!"
After speaking, his eyes swept coldly over the faces of several subordinates beside him, and several subordinates immediately expressed their positions.
"Yes!" Ye Han's subordinates immediately responded in unison.
Only then did Ye Han regain his smile and say to Xia Yu: "Mr. Xia, please speak!"
Xia Yu said slowly: "Mr. Ye should know that I have a good relationship with Mr. Huo Yingdong, right?"
Hearing Huo Yingdong's name, a trace of anger rose in Ye Han's heart, after all, if Huo Yingdong hadn't cooperated with He Hongshen, he wouldn't have lost so badly.
If Huo Yingdong helped him, then it was He Hongshen who was swept out of the house now!
However, he also knew the occasion, suppressed the anger in his heart, nodded and said, "Yes, could it be that Mr. Xia has taken over the equity in Huo Yingdong's hands?"
Xia Yu nodded and shook his head, and said with a smile when Ye Han frowned: "I can't say it's done, it's just related to him." ”
"I wasn't interested in SJM, but Huo Yingdong didn't want the equity of SJM, so he casually mentioned that he planned to sell the equity of SJM, so I bought it easily, and after learning about it, I became interested in SJM. ”
"And Huo Yingdong's equity interests can't be kept, I won't be bullied like this, rather than being crushed, I prefer to hold everything in my own hands, although there will be difficulties, but it's not impossible, isn't it?"
There was a hint of shock on Ye Han's face, he looked at Xia Yu with burning eyes, and hurriedly asked, "Mr. Xia, are you saying that Huo Yingdong has transferred all his shares to you?"
Xia Yu smiled and bowed: "Yes!"
Ye Han took a deep breath and fell silent.
The corners of Xia Yu's mouth raised slightly, and he looked at Yuan Tianfan, who immediately took out a copy from his bag and handed it to Xia Yu, Xia Yu put it on the table and pushed it in front of Ye Han, and said when Ye Han was puzzled: "Mr. Ye, this is the equity transfer contract I signed with Huo Yingdong, if you don't believe it, you might as well take a look, I don't need to lie to you on this point, I don't need to do it at all!"
Ye Han immediately picked up the documents and looked at them, and when he saw the transfer price and the number of shares, he frowned, but he still kept his patience and read all the documents.
After reading it, he pushed the document back to Xia Yu, but he didn't say a word about the transaction price, and said with emotion: "If it weren't for this document, I can't believe it's true." ”
"However, Mr. Xia, congratulations!"
Xia Yu shook his head with a smile and said: "What is there to congratulate, getting these shares is not the time to relax, but I heard Huo Yingdong say that his 30% equity is only 1% of the annual dividend." ”
"That's why equity isn't worth much, otherwise I wouldn't be able to buy it at this price. ”
"But since I bought it, then I can't lose any of the benefits I deserve, but it's a pity that He Hongshen is too domineering, I'm not sure that He Hongshen will spit out the meat that he eats in his stomach, in this case, I might as well be safe and take it myself!"
Xia Yu's explanation was reasonable and dispelled one of Ye Han's doubts.
It's just that he wasn't completely reassured, but snorted coldly and said: "Mr. Xia, He Hongshen is notoriously greedy and domineering, and he is an ungrateful white-eyed wolf, you are absolutely right to think so." ”
"It's just that Ho Hongshen, his sister He Wanqi and brother-in-law Ye Deli hold a total of 59% of the shares, even if I sell the equity to you, the SJM company is still the world of the He family, what way do you take He Hongshen down?"
Xia Yu said with an inexplicable smile on his face: "Mr. Ye, what you said is too absolute, throughout the ages, there are not a few cases of fathers and sons and brothers turning against each other, how can you be sure that He Hongshen's sister He Wanqi and Ye Deli will have the same heart with He Hongshen from beginning to end?"
"What's more, He Hongshen, He Wanqi and Ye Deli seem to be one family, but they are actually three families: Aomen He, Xiangjiang He and Aomen Ye's family!"
"You are several times older than me, you should understand the principle of profit first more than me, right?"
