Chapter 469: The Su family's ship is sinking

Xia Bing's negotiations on behalf of North American Ventures and YA Tiger have finally come to an end.

YA Tiger could not accept a protracted tug-of-war, and the company's representatives made their position clear as soon as they met today, this is the last meeting, and if no agreement is reached, YA Tiger will abandon the acquisition plan.

"Mr. Xia, what, should we accept it when we see it?"

Su Tingting was a little breathless, and reminded Xia Bing very bluntly.

"Mr. Su, don't worry, we will definitely be able to reach an agreement today. ”

Xia Bing seems very confident, and the worst result is nothing more than accepting the $2.5 billion purchase price proposed by YA Tiger, if it can add some, it will be even more perfect.

Su Tingting pursed her lips and didn't squeak again, the representative of YA Tiger had already started the last negotiation posture at this time.

The other party talked a lot, but Xia Bing was not interested at all.

"So, Mr. Stephen, what is your final offer?"

Xia Bing looked at the white uncle opposite with a smile, and said a thousand things and ten thousand, whether it can succeed or not depends on the price?

"Mr. Xia, Mr. Su, the company's board of directors after careful consideration, the final offer is 2.7 billion US dollars. This price is unlikely to change again, I hope you can understand. ”

YA Tiger's negotiator, Stephen, said this with great difficulty. He is indeed not lying, nor is he using words, if the other party does not agree today, YA Tiger will announce that the acquisition has failed.

Su Tingting looked at Xia Bing nervously, for fear of hearing the word "refusal" from her mouth again.

"Mr. Stephen, thank you and your team for your efforts over such a long time. I think we've found a balance that is acceptable to both sides. The final acquisition of $2.7 billion, which I decided to accept on behalf of North American Ventures. ”

Xia Bing said these words unhurriedly, and both Stephen and Su Tingting breathed a long sigh of relief.

Immediately afterwards, Su Tingting also hurriedly expressed her position and agreed to YA Tiger's final acquisition plan.

"Oh, thank God. This is the best news I've heard so far this year. Mr. Su and Mr. Xia, I think we can open champagne to celebrate......"

Stephen stood up and shook hands with Xia Bing and Su Tingting, and then a cheer rang out in the conference room.

In the evening, Xia Bing happily called Hu Yang.

"Mr. Hu, fortunately, we have finally reached an agreement in the negotiations with YA Tiger. Eventually, they were willing to pay $2.7 billion to buy the company. North American VCs hold 50% of the shares, which means that we will have $1.35 billion in return. ”

After the completion of the acquisition, there will actually be some taxes and fees. However, the amount is very small, and most of the funds will eventually go to the accounts of the parent company of North American venture capital, the offshore company "Walker Group" based in the Cayman Islands.

This is mainly for the sake of reasonable tax avoidance, which is actually the case with the vast majority of multinational companies based in Silicon Valley.

"Mr. Xia, thank you for your hard work. Your trip to North America has been extremely flawless. Say, how do you want me to reward you?"

Hu Yang was in a good mood, and couldn't help but give Xia Bing a reward on the spot.

"Reward? Hehe, Mr. Hu is really a generous boss. However, I haven't thought about it yet, so I'll talk about it when I do. ”

Xia Bing also needs to stay in the local area for a few more days, from the signing of the contract to the handover of the enterprise, she needs to be present. It is estimated that she will be able to return to China by next week.

"Well, you pay more attention to your body over there. When the matter is over, come back quickly, and I will celebrate you when the time comes. ”

Hu Yang immediately hung up, and when he looked up, he saw Wu Xinhui knocking on the door and walking in.

"Is there something wrong?" Assistant Wu?"

"Mr. Hu, Secretary Zhang from the city called just now and said that you are free to go. ”

Hu Yang had been talking to Xia Bing just now, and Wu Xinhui had been waiting outside the door for a while.

Hu Yang nodded with a smile, and immediately called Secretary Zhang: "Secretary Zhang, what are your instructions?"

"Mr. Hu, the leader said that there is something I want to talk to you about. Are you free right now? If you're free, please come now. ”

Secretary Zhang didn't say much, but his tone was a little serious.

Although Hu Yang didn't know what Qi Xiangmin was looking for him, it was obvious that there was something more important or urgent. He told Secretary Zhang that he would leave immediately and would be there soon.

More than forty minutes later, Hu Yang appeared in Qi Xiangmin's office.

"Mr. Hu, please take a seat first. Secretary Zhang, you go make two cups of tea and bring them in, and then you stay outside and don't let anyone disturb us, understand?"

Qi Xiangmin put down the papers in his hand, and then walked over from behind his desk.

Secretary Zhang nodded in response, quickly brought in two cups of hot tea, then turned around and went out, and carefully closed the door.

"Leader, has something big happened?"

It is not the first time that Hu Yang has seen Qi Xiangmin, Qi Xiangmin is generally very easy-going, and it seems to be the first time that Secretary Zhang is not allowed to be present in such a situation.

"Mr. Hu, there are some things I shouldn't have asked, but there are big implications, I hope you can understand. I'd like to ask, what's going on with your daughter in Sioux City, and do you have a lot of business dealings with Sioux City? I mean both domestic and foreign. ”

Of course, Qi Xiangmin didn't ask these questions with a gossip heart, he asked with deep meaning.

Hu Yang pondered for a moment, and began to start with the grievances between himself and Ankang Insurance, and then talked about the relationship between himself and Su Tingting as ordinary friends.

"The only time I had business dealings with the Su family was to jointly acquire me with Su Tingting, not because I was friends with Tingting, on the contrary, the situation at that time was facing the problem of fierce competition between me and her.

Later, considering the fierce competition between me and her, the cost of the acquisition will continue to be raised, so as to make the pick-up cheaper. As a result, Tingting and I reached an agreement and decided to adopt a joint acquisition plan. ”

This is the first time that Hu Yang has clarified the rumors, and the main purpose of his acquisition at that time was to obtain the other party's search engine technology.

That's why he agreed to the joint takeover plan.

Qi Xiangmin was obviously relieved after listening to Populus Hu's narration.

He organized the language for a while before he said, "Mr. Hu, it's not that I want to inquire about your private affairs. This involves Sioux City, and I'm afraid you'll be implicated. It's best that you don't have anything to do with the other party, remember, what Sioux City has done has touched the bottom line, and he won't end well. The Su family's boat, I'm afraid it's going to sink......"

Some things haven't been made public, and some things won't be made public eventually.

Qi Xiangmin can talk about today's level, but he actually has to take a little risk. However, he couldn't bear to watch an excellent entrepreneur like Hu Yang get involved in an inexplicable turmoil.

It can be said that Qi Xiangmin is very interesting for Populus euphratica.

"Okay, I see, I know what I have to do, you can rest assured. ”

Hu Yang naturally used honorifics, who is really good to himself, he knows in his heart. But at the same time, he was also muttering, it seems that Su Cheng is in a big trouble.

He didn't sit long in Qi Xiangmin's office before he left and left.

"Mr. Hu, shall we go back to the company?"

Wu Xinhui was waiting for Hu Yang in the car, and when she saw him come up, she asked in a low voice.

"Let's not go back yet, let's go to the beach. ”

It stands to reason that his old rival is going to be unlucky, and Populus euphratica should be happy. But he was still a little worried about Su Tingting at this time.

Hu Yang and Su Tingting don't have deep contact, but they get along very well with each other. Putting aside their respective positions, Hu Yang actually didn't want to see Su Tingting being implicated by her family, so she collapsed.

However, he knew he couldn't do anything. There is a way to cover the nest, how can there be eggs? How could the overthrow of Su City and even the entire Su family not affect Su Tingting?

When he came to the Binhai Avenue, Hu Yang asked Li Jie to stop, and he walked unhurriedly along the greenway by the sea.

Wu Xinhui and Lu Dacheng followed behind him, not knowing what happened to the boss today, but obviously not in a good mood.

After walking on the beach for nearly an hour, the depression in Hu Yang's heart dissipated a lot.

"Assistant Wu, let's find a place to eat. Now I miss the meal when I go back to the company. ”

After getting into the car, Hu Yang said to Wu Xinhui with a smile.

"Okay, Mr. Hu, why don't we go to eat Western food at noon?"

"Whatever, Assistant Wu, look at the arrangement. ”

At night, Hu Yang was sitting in the study reading a book when his mobile phone suddenly rang.

He thought it was a call from Xia Bing, but after connecting it, he found out that it was Su Tingting's phone.

"Mr. Hu, today the two of us have signed a formal agreement with YA Tiger, and we will belong to everyone from now on. ”

There was a hint of melancholy in Su Tingting's words.

"Tingting, isn't this good? Your first big investment has achieved a huge profit, you should be happy. ”

Hu Yang didn't know what to say, so he casually comforted him.

"Yes, it was a great event, but why can't I get excited? Mr. Hu, seriously, the cooperation between us is very perfect, and I like this feeling very much. You say, will we have a chance to work together in the future?"

Su Tingting felt that Hu Yang was alienated from herself, but she didn't understand what it was for, could it be that the other party still had scruples about the grievances between Ankang Insurance?

"Hehe, of course I'm willing to cooperate with you if I have the chance. However, there are some things that don't have to be taken to a moment. Tingting, listen to me, after dealing with the matter after it is perfected, you can give yourself a vacation. Don't you like to travel, go out and relax, and think about the next project later. ”

Hu Yang knew that he might not have the opportunity to cooperate with Su Tingting in the future.

"Well, I just want to take a break, too. But my father won't let me go back to China, otherwise I can take advantage of the opportunity to travel to see you. Okay, don't bother you, there are good investment projects in North America in the future, but don't forget about me! ”

Su Tingting was stunned, she had a hunch that the distance between herself and Hu Yang would be farther and farther away.
