Chapter 450: Confidence is Strength
Meigou took 45% of the shares, and the Newhouse family retained 55% of the shares.
In this way, the Newhouse family can advance and retreat.
If the transformation of Condé Nast Group is smooth and its profits rise sharply after Meigou.com becomes a shareholder, then the Newhouse family will have an advantage and have sufficient room for operation in the later stage, whether it is listing or expanding shares and financing.
He played his wishful thinking very well, but these people at Meigou are obviously not good people.
Xu Jing smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Bob, your family continues to hold the controlling stake and continue to use your thinking to run the Condé Nast Group, so what's the point of our company becoming a shareholder? We must get the controlling stake, otherwise there is no need to talk about it anymore." ”
The meaning of her words is obvious, Meigou is here for a controlling stake this time, and after the shareholding, the company's board of directors and senior management must be appointed by Meigo.com.
In this way, Condé Nast Group can be transformed and have the hope of rebirth.
Buying shares is just taking a small part of the shares, then the shares are unconscious, and Meigou is an investment, not a fortune boy.
Bob had long heard that Orientals were more reserved, and he thought that Xu Jing was also such a character, but he didn't expect her to speak so directly, and she didn't even leave a way back.
He was stunned for a moment before he spoke.
"Mr. Xu, we have a lot of ace magazines under Condé Nast Group, although it is difficult to operate temporarily, but in the field of fashion magazines, it is still irreplaceable. ”
This is a common trick used by sellers, you must boast about your goods, otherwise how can you sell them at a good price.
The meaning of his words is also to say that we are irreplaceable in the field of fashion magazines, and if you are not willing to accept my conditions, it will not be easy to find a substitute.
But Xu Jing didn't eat him at all.
"Oh, since Mr. Bob is still so optimistic about Condé Nast's prospects, why don't you put this stake on hold for now, and we'll talk about it in a year and a half. ”
Bob is just stagnant, he just wants to get away with it, but he didn't expect the other party to retreat directly.
How can this work?
If Meigou returns, then who will take over?
In the past two years, in order to maintain Condé Nast, their Newhouse family has worked very hard. Within the family, there are also great opinions about him, and it is because of his incompetence that Condé Nast is now not doing well.
Bob was furious and said that he would give up the position of chairman to the rest of the family, but no one dared to take this hot potato.
The best way is to bring in a powerful company, preferably a giant in the Internet field, to jointly run the Condé Nast Group.
Obviously, Meigou is the most suitable target.
He hurriedly said: "There is something to discuss, Mr. Xu, our family is also very sincere." Besides, now that paper media are transforming into digital media, time is pressing, and everyone is racing against time. ”
"Then your family will meet again to discuss, if we want to take a stake in Condé Nast, we must get 55% of the shares. If your family agrees with this, then we'll move on. ”
Xu Jing is very strong, which is also the strong strength of Meigo.com, which gives her this confidence.
She also knows that Meigou can control Condé Nast, which is naturally good, and if the Newhouse family does not let go, it will not be a big problem if it does not become a shareholder.
This thing is not a must, the big deal is to pay for advertising first, and then just wait, and wait until the Newhouse family can't hold on, then talk about it.
When it comes to business, if one party has no way out, it must be negotiated.
The other side doesn't care, it doesn't work out or not.
Then it is obvious who is active and who is passive.
Now Meigou is the party that has the initiative, and Condé Nast is the passive party, even if the request put forward by Meigou is a bit excessive, the Newhouse family can only agree to it.
Sure enough, Bob said that he would have another meeting with the family members to discuss, and first enthusiastically arranged for the Meigou group to stay in the hotel to rest.
The atmosphere of this internal meeting of the Newhouse family was very solemn.
After Bob conveyed Xu Jing's meaning to everyone, he concluded: "The other party is very strong and very confident, it seems that there is no room for discussion on this controlling issue." Now let's vote, agree or disagree, and don't waste any time. ”
The board of directors is of course well aware of the current state of Condé Nast Group.
The longer it drags on, the more it loses, and the slimmer the chances of revival.
No one is arrogant, everyone unanimously votes in favor of giving the controlling stake to Meigo.com!
However, if you give in in this regard, you will have to get it back in other areas.
Bob also stated his intentions.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the performance of Meigou in the securities market, everyone can see, since they want to buy shares in Condé Nast and take the controlling stake, then to acquire these shares, I don't think we need cash, let them replace them with shares of Meigou.com!"
It's a good idea, and although the cash is good, you can get as much as you get.
The shares of Meigou are different, after getting their hands, they are constantly increasing in value!
Moreover, such a large amount of shares of Meigou cannot be received in the circulation market.
Everyone agreed, and felt that it was a good idea.
……
The next day, when the two sides met again, Bob brought out the plan that the board had discussed.
"Mr. Xu, since Meigou has come over so sincerely, and our American people are also hospitable, we can't let you go back empty-handed, so our board of directors agreed with you and transferred the controlling stake to Meigo.com, ahaha. ”
Xu Jing smiled slightly, the result was not bad, and she then asked: "So for the valuation of Condé Nast, are you overdue?" Also, do you want Meigou to acquire it with cash, or ......?"
Bob hurriedly replied: "We only accept the equity exchange method of Meigou.com, as for the valuation, we can ask a third-party financial company to evaluate, and then discuss a price that is acceptable to both parties." ”
Since an agreement has been reached on the general direction, the rest is easy to discuss, since the other party intends to let Meigou replace it with shares, Xu Jing has no objection.
This is also a good thing for Meigou.com, which is equivalent to acquiring a large company without spending money. Of course, a portion of the shares will be privately issued.
After winning Condé Nast Group, Ye Caini's big show plan is also moving towards further success.
Everything goes hand in hand.
Several companies are busy with this big event, but the real protagonist Wang Ye is not too involved, he has other things to do these days.
