Chapter 231: Acquisition of "Marvel" II
Returning to Morgan's residence, Little Yi just fell asleep, giving him time to sort out the idea of acquiring "Marvel", sitting in the boss's chair in the study, resting his feet folded on the desk, lighting a Cuban cigar and falling into deep thought. m.
It is undeniable that he is actually a little similar to Ma Yun, it is okay to play a little lip service, but it may be worse to really implement enterprise management, business competition and behavioral means, maybe it takes a few years to become a top manager, and now it is still a little bit worse.
Li Qingyuan sat for several hours, and it wasn't until Morgan came home from work that he woke up from his thoughts.
Li Qingyuan, who was covered in the smell of smoke, was once again disgusted by Xiao Yiyi, who woke up, so that he could just talk to Morgan about the acquisition of "Marvel".
"Morgan, regarding the acquisition of Marvel, I don't think we can sit back and wait for a decision, we need to give them a little bit of a stimulus so that they can make a decision quickly. ”
"What do you want to do?"
"If you mobilize your connections to say hello to major banks and financial institutions and cut off their borrowing routes, and then let the traders suppress the shares of 'Marvel Comics' and lower the value of their shares, I think their shareholders will definitely not be able to sit still!" Li Qingyuan said with a gloomy face.
"You're planning a hostile takeover? That's not a good thing for an investment company!"
Li Qingyuan shook his head and replied: "Hostile takeovers are not counted, I just want to put a little pressure on them, eliminate those shareholders who are not strong-willed, and keep the real elites." If I can successfully acquire 'Marvel Comics', I am not going to change the operator, in the final analysis, I just want to provide Yanran with more choices, and it will not be good to hurt the bones of 'Marvel Comics'!"
Morgan brushed the hair that hung down to his eyes, sat down on the sofa, and said helplessly: "Every time I help you do something, I have to be sneaky, this time I have to take advantage of favors, and I don't know if I will be sold next time!"
"Come on, you're also a billionaire, people can't wait to accept your favors, if you have nothing to do, you may have more gains! In the future, there will definitely be a lot of enemies in the Helium Star Group, we can't always make enemies everywhere, and it doesn't hurt us to make some friends." ”
"You can't make friends if it's not good, you need to leak some oil and water. Morgan looked at him with his legs crossed.
"Isn't it convenient to ask for benefits, as long as I can buy 'Marvel Comics' smoothly, set aside a part of the shares for them, and everyone can make money together, isn't it great!"
"Today I deliberately investigated the shareholder composition of 'Marvel Comics', Isaac Perlmatt, Aviarad, Perelman, and Icahn are entangled in it, what are you going to do with them?"
"Isaac Perlmatt and Avi Arad are both people who really love 'Marvel Comics', I have no problem with letting them stay, Perelman is an opportunist who is determined to kick out, anyway, he has no management right now, it is relatively easy to take his shares, you can start with him, contact him, I think he will be happy to give away this money-losing goods. ”
"Hmph, even if you want to buy his shares, you have to wait for me to bring down the stock price. ”
"Then you have to be neat with your hands and feet, and I have to go back to China for the New Year!"
"The stock price of 'Marvel Comics' is about to fall to the bottom, and it won't take much time. ”
"You guys
What are the two of them muttering in the study, hurry up and come out for dinner!" Li Yunyang's voice sounded outside the door.
As soon as Li Yunyang spoke, the two people who were calling for wind and rain outside walked out of the study in a gloomy manner.
……
In the conference room of the "Marvel" company, the shareholders gathered together, and Arad recounted Li Qingyuan's idea of acquiring "Marvel", except for Isaac Perlmatt, who was silent, everyone else was discussing one after another, for the comic book company, they who have long been dead in their hearts can get rid of the mess of "Marvel", of course, they can't ask for it, no one wants to take over for so long, and now there is a pick-up man, which is a great thing.
"Arad, do you think he will be able to bring 'Surprise' back to life if he hands over the company to Mr. Li?" As Arad's partner, Isaac Perlmatt is more concerned about the future development of the company, and cannot be entrusted to others like Perelman.
"This Mr. Li is not like a certain person who only wants to use the company as a tool to make money, he shares our longing for 'Marvel Comics', and he hopes to develop and rebuild the glory of 'Marvel Comics'. Arad glanced at Perelman, who was grim-looking on the side.
"Hmph, I don't know if this Mr. Li of unknown origin is talking nonsense, hoping that someone will not rush to the hospital when he is sick!" Perelman shot back unceremoniously.
This sentence is right in Arad's weakness, he knows who Li Qingyuan is, but he doesn't want to tell everyone here, lest they have the mentality of climbing high branches, and it is not a good thing not to want to sell the shares in their hands, so he secretly thought about it in his heart, and said: "Mr. Li has Helium Star Investment Company as a guarantor, which is much better than someone who wants to make money!"
Perelman gritted his teeth and secretly scolded his mother, but in fact, he was not dead set on the comic company.
"No matter what kind of character this Mr. Li is, as long as he has the heart to invest money to save the 'Marvel Comics', we might as well discuss how to deal with his acquisition!
"There's no problem selling the shares, what kind of conditions can this Mr. Li come up with?" Icahn, like Perelman, was kicked out of the 'Marvel Comics', and he now just wants to get rid of his shares.
"What kind of favorable conditions do you want to get when the comic company has come to such a field? Now even if it is sold at a market value, thank God, don't forget that we are still carrying a debt of 200 million, if the company goes bankrupt and liquidates, everyone here will have to pay a sum of money to repay the debt!"
Arad's words left everyone speechless.
After a while, Perelman spoke: "No matter how much our debt is, as long as this Mr. Li takes a fancy to our company, we can't let him get it so easily, and the premium still needs to be premium." ”
Perelman is right, not only for the premium, but also for him to take on the debt. Icahn chimed in.
Perelman squinted his eyes and the corners of his mouth raised and kept silent, someone helped him achieve his goal, as long as these people dragged Li Qingyuan's acquisition pace, he would have time to discuss with Li Qingyuan alone about jointly holding the comic company.
"Since you have this requirement, you'd better unify your voice, how much premium do you want? ”
“1
0%”
“20%”
"30% is the reasonable range, so we have room to bargain!"
Everyone was talking about it one after another, and Arad's face darkened, and he said that these people were still dreaming about the Spring and Autumn Festival for a long time.
There was a knock on the door, and Arad shouted "Please come in", only to see his secretary Amy walk in and whisper a few words in his ear.
Arad waved his hand away and said with a heavy face: "Amy just told me that our company's stock price has dropped by 10%, you understand what that means. Isn't it time for us to talk about practical requirements?"
"This must be a troublemaker surnamed Li, we can't be fooled by him!" Perelman had to come out at this time to stabilize everyone's minds, otherwise his wishful thinking would be in vain.
Arad stared at Perelman with an idiotic expression and said, "Even if we know that he is the one who makes trouble, what can I do, the stock price is falling day by day, which can only make him more relaxed to buy 'Marvel Comics'! and buy it at a lower price! And every day we have to face losses." ”
"We can sue him for a hostile takeover!" Perelman felt that at this time he should carry the banner and not let Arad lead the way.
"If you pay this legal fee privately, I'd be happy for you to sue him. But don't forget, looking through the business cards of major companies around the world, no company wants to buy us, they are all watching, waiting for us to go bankrupt!"
"Hmph, it's still the same sentence, if the price doesn't meet my psychological expectations, I'd rather 'Marvel Comics' go bankrupt!" Perelman said with a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water.
Arad didn't have Perelman's intentions for a while, but he couldn't let him mess around here to spoil his own good deeds, and said: "You don't want to wait for the company to go bankrupt, and then take over the company, tell you that there is no way, I won't let you get your wish, 'Marvel Comics' will never be handed over to you again, you die of this heart!"
"It is not yet known who will kill the deer, let's see!"
Due to the-for-tat confrontation between the two major shareholders, the shareholders' meeting of "Marvel Comics" ended unhappily.
After Perelman left, Arad welcomed Isaac Perlmatt into his office, set up a cup of hot coffee, and said: "Mr. Li has high hopes for 'Surprise', he wants to revive the prestige of 'Surprise', and he has enough strength to do this, will you hand over the company to this young man?"
"What good has he given you to defend him so much. Isaac Perlmatt saw the little ninety-nine in it at a glance.
"I didn't get any benefit from him, but he promised me that I would still be in charge of the company from now on. ”
Isaac Perlmatt didn't say much, but took a sip of the coffee on the table, and swirled it on his tongue.
After a long time, Isaac Perhelmat swallowed the coffee in his mouth and said: "It doesn't matter if you want shares, we have paid so much for the company in the past few years, but there has been no improvement at all, it's time for someone else to lead the 'Marvel Comics' to start again." I hope that one day I can see the appearance of 'Marvel Manga' back to the top. ”
"As long as Mr. Li stays in 'Surprise', I think this day will come soon!"
