Chapter 178: Happy Cooperation

Hearing this, Kent was adoring, anyway, with an expression of "I don't understand very well, but it sounds amazing".

And although Tony and his friends also seem to understand, their expressions are much calmer. Especially Tony, who is almost sixty years old, in his career, what strange reasons for acquisition have not been heard? After all, Tony is here to work.

After thinking about it, Tony concluded: "Mr. Bramble, can your request be summed up in the following points: become a majority shareholder of more than 5 percent, and hopefully Mr. Kent will be elected as a director at Microsoft's shareholder meeting, and the shareholder meeting is beyond my scope of work, and this is just your hope?"

"Yes, you're right. ”

Tony continued: "As for the exchange with Mr. Bill/Gates. I think a major shareholder of Microsoft, if he makes a formal request, Mr. Bill Gates will arrange an appointment, and there will be an opportunity to meet and talk in person. ”

"That's true. ”

"Well, it actually becomes one thing — I'll help you buy 5% of the outstanding shares in the Microsoft market. Is that so?" Tony finally asked.

"Exactly!" Jing Jian smiled brightly.

The atmosphere in the room was suddenly much lighter, especially Tony and the others. For them, the simplicity of the job is too much, and it even feels like giving money. Tony smiled, "If that's all, I think I'll be able to accept the commission." But before commissioning, forgive my curiosity. According to the current market price, Microsoft's 5% should be around $8 million, which is not a very exaggerated number. Even if there is a premium at the time of acquisition, it should be controlled at about 30%. That is, Mr. Bramble, you have prepared 12 million, and you still have a credit limit of 5 million. But the maximum cost of the acquisition is 11 million. If that's the kind of job, you give it to Caleb, and his professionalism is perfectly fine. But why do you have to pay that extra $1 million?"

Jing Jian replied with a smile: "Just in case." Because Mr. Bill Gates, as the founder, is likely to have a stubborn side. If he refuses, he will need to increase the takeover, and he can also convince other major shareholders. So I need your professional advice and possibly continue to cooperate. Of course, this comes at an additional cost. Think, the honorable Mr. Jobs is no longer at Apple, is he?"

"Huh. "Tony is noncommittal, anyway, who can say what the future holds?" Well, the acquisition period is three months, and the guaranteed premium does not exceed 10% of the average price of the acquisition period. Less than one percentage point, an additional $40,000 bonus is paid. More than 10%, my team only gets 500,000 hardship fees. ”

"It's less than 10 million dollars, and a month and a half is enough, right?"

"It's a zombie stock, it's very inactive, and once it's acquired, the market is very volatile. So it's a little longer and more secure. ”

"Then two months, I agreed to all other conditions. ”

"That'...... Happy working together!"

"It was a pleasure to work with. Smith, inform Mr. Kevin, we'll go over and sign the contract right away. Mr. Tony, I'm sorry, but there is a team of accountants and lawyers that I personally invited to specialize in auditing in the future. ”

"No problem, that's as it should be. ”

“……”

Jing Jian paid an additional $300,000 for the audit of the lawyers and accountants......

……

Tony and Caleb flew back to New York that day to make a stock acquisition. And then there was a long period of acquisition. After arranging all these to the professionals, Jing Jian ignored them for the time being. As for his acquisition of Microsoft, the company kept it a secret from everyone except Kent. Of course, there is no need for the women around him to hide it......

Sorting out the jacket and shirt for Jing Jian, Cao Haiyan asked with a smile: "Why don't you tie a tie?"

Jing Jian replied with a smile: "If you don't go to the screen, I won't be ugly." Don't be too ostentatious, I didn't even drive a sports car today. In fact, both of them understand that there are many people who know each other, and Cao Haiyan is reluctant to participate with Jing Jian.

"Xiao Jian, looking at the information you left behind, have you been busy with acquisitions these days?" Cao Haiyan asked again.

"Uh-huh. In fact, he is still too poor to be a small shareholder. ”

"Is it Microsoft?"

"You know?"

"I didn't know much about it before, but I checked it later. How's that company? Okay?"

"It's good. If you give that money, buy its stock, and let him go for decades, you will be a rich woman. In this regard, Jing Jian didn't mind giving Cao Haiyan a chance. If she buys Microsoft with $60,000 at this time, the market value will be about $10 million in 30 years.

In fact, if Jing Jian really buys the 5%, even if it is diluted to 2% in the future, the market value will be in the early 5 billion US dollars, which is definitely an excellent investment. Of course, if Jing Jian was really going to be a rice worm, he might have really done it.

Cao Haiyan thought about it, but still shook her head: "No, I'm not going to buy it." ”

"Oh, why?" Jing Jian didn't care either, Cao Haiyan gave up this opportunity. But I'm still a little curious about her reason.

"You're not sincere. So I'm not fooled by you. Cao Haiyan's answer surprised Jing Jian.

"Hehe, where am I not sincere?" Jing Jian felt interesting, and he didn't know where he was exposed.

"Where chaos is born, words are ordered. If the king is not secret, he will lose his minister, if he is not secret, he will lose his life, and if he is not secret, he will be harmed. It is a gentleman's prudence and not out. Such a plan should be kept strictly confidential. But you're telling too many people to keep it a secret, so you're definitely messing around. I just don't know, what are you such a bhit? Am I right?"

Jing Jian didn't answer directly, and said with a smile: "Actually, if you buy a little more, you will definitely earn it." Even if Cao Haiyan guessed that she had ulterior motives, it would not hurt.

"Or ...... Nope. Cao Haiyan hesitated slightly, but still shook her head, "Unless you tell me the whole situation." Otherwise, I wouldn't have touched things that I wasn't sure about. "Cao Haiyan is still that kind of character.

"Okay, I'll tell you. Jing Jian smiled and joked, "I, a simple rural youth, don't think things through, it's all loopholes." Unlike you, the female middle of the country, Zhuge thinks too much. So as a woman, it's still stupid and cute. ”

"It's strange to believe you. I don't want to be a stupid girl. Cao Haiyan glanced at Jing Jian very amorously.

Jing Jian kissed her red lips: "Then I'll go to the consulate, it shouldn't be too late." It's really boring to come to study abroad and become an unemployed youth! ”
