126 I want to be fair (Guarantee 2 more for the first monthly pass)
What does a three-percent stake in Microsoft represent? Putting everything else aside, just based on Microsoft's recent market value of more than $400 billion, this is more than $12 billion, of course, this is only a theoretical calculation, if such a large-scale sell-off of Microsoft shares at one time will naturally cause abnormal fluctuations in Microsoft's stock price.
This means that Datang Shizi Technology Co., Ltd. will become one of Microsoft's major shareholders, and has the right to be stationed on Microsoft's board of directors, put forward opinions on Microsoft's future development and exercise rights.
However, in Microsoft's view, this is clearly enough to show their sincerity. After all, it is becoming more and more difficult for companies with modern management to acquire large shares. It's not just about money, even if you want to buy so many shares in the stock market, you have to have so many people willing to sell them. To know that the founder of Microsoft, the former richest man in the world, Bill Murphy. Gates now owns only about 4 percent of Microsoft. Although he has not been Microsoft's largest individual shareholder since last year, Microsoft's largest shareholder, former president Ballmer, actually has a few tenths of a percent more stake than him.
As for the Datang Shi subsidiary, it is still just an obscure small company, and it is difficult to estimate how much 51% of the shares are worth, but it is not as good as the 3% shares of a world-class large company like Microsoft, right? What's more, once the information of this equity transaction spreads, it will definitely cause an uproar, which is definitely a great thing for Datangshi subsidiary, and it can directly become famous in the whole world.
Perhaps at Microsoft's board of directors, everyone was struggling with this decision when it came to making it. If it's not as good as others, who wants to do this kind of loss-making business? Of course, this is also a killer feature after all the previous conditions could not impress the Tang Dynasty, I believe that Microsoft's senior management also feels that no one can refuse their decision to make great concessions.
But it turns out that they were wrong again.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Chen, to be honest. Your offer is tempting, but all I can say is sorry. But this gave me a revelation that if Microsoft is really serious about wanting to do a share swap, I have a proposal. We can carry out an equivalent exchange, that is to say, how many shares of Datang Shizi Co., Ltd. do you want to acquire, and you can exchange the same amount of Microsoft shares, so that it is more fair, do you think? After Chen Yuanzheng was forced to reluctantly finally release the big move authorized to him by the board of directors, he got Wang Shizi's answer.
True, this informal negotiation has been going on for more than an hour. Previously, Yan Yuxi took the two of them to visit the entire Microsoft building. After seeing all kinds of modern equipment, clean and efficient computer rooms, and Microsoft's deep pockets, Chen Yuanzheng finally completed the video conference and met the two in person.
After that, the two sides naturally tested the Shizi 1.0 system, after all, the purpose of Microsoft's invitation to the two was this system, to put it bluntly, if this system was not exposed because of the last press conference, how could a giant company like Microsoft take a look at a newly registered small company like Datang Shizi Technology?
An hour of time. Chen Yuanzheng also tried to persuade Wang Shizi and Tang Sen to accept Microsoft's proposal to sell the copyright and source files of the Shizi 1.0 system. However, the conditions they offered could not even catch up with the price that Apple was willing to pay, so they were naturally directly rejected by Wang Shizi. It wasn't until Chen Yuanzheng gave the killer feature discussed by the board of directors of Microsoft that Wang Shizi gave such a sentence, and Wang Shizi's words directly made the entire conference room completely cold, Chen Yuanzheng looked at Wang Shizi at this time as if he was looking at a madman.
Everyone knows in their hearts that Microsoft is willing to exchange 3% of the shares for 51% of the shares of Datang Shizi Technology, and it is only the Shizi 1.0 system that is in its sights. Throw away this system. In the eyes of Microsoft, it is not an exaggeration to describe Datang Shizi Technology Company as worthless.
Becoming the largest shareholder of Datang Shizi Technology, Microsoft will naturally be able to determine the operation of the Shizi 1.0 system, which is similar to Apple's willingness to pay $2 billion to buy 55% of Datang Shizi Technology's shares. It's just that Microsoft's offer seems more sincere.
But exchanging Microsoft's shares for the shares of Datang Shizi Technology at a ratio of one to one is obviously a big joke. After all, holding less than 51 percent of Datang Shizi Technology's shares doesn't mean much to Microsoft. The two shareholders of this company are obviously wearing a pair of pants, if it is really according to the exchange method that Wang Shizi said, will they let Datang Shizi Technology control Microsoft in turn in order to control Datang Shizi Technology? Isn't that a fantasy?
Not to mention that the board of directors will not consider this fanciful issue at all, even if the board of directors really collectively agrees to it, where will it dilute the shares to exchange?
Datang Shizi Technology is not listed, and the equity is concentrated in the hands of Wang Shizi and Tang Sen, but Microsoft is different, it is a large-scale listed company, and the current largest shareholder, the Black Hole Fund, only accounts for about 5.5% of Microsoft's shares. Not to mention the 10,000 refunds, even if Microsoft can really gather enough shares to trade, what country will Microsoft be in the future? I guess the whole world is going to collectively laugh at Microsoft's IQ, right?
So when Wang Shizi's words made Chen Yuanzheng stunned, his whole face turned faintly green.
And Yan Yuxi, who participated in this informal meeting throughout the whole process, didn't know what expression to show, she thought that Wang Shizi was joking, but looking at Wang Shizi's serious appearance, how could there be a little bit of joking, obviously serious, not serious! But is he really serious?
"Mr. Wang, are you sure you're not joking? Do you mean to let Microsoft exchange 51 percent of the shares for 51 percent of the shares of Datang Shizi Technology Company? Chen Yuanzheng, who had been in the mall for a long time, silently took a deep breath before trying to let himself say these words calmly, after being in a high position for so many years, he was naturally able to control his emotions very well. Just like the current situation, except for showing a trace of anger at the moment when Wang Shizi's words blurted out, he still didn't have any gaffes.
"How is this possible? Even if I agree to Microsoft exchanging 51 percent of our shares, will you be able to take it out now? What I mean is that Microsoft can be considered to exchange 3% of the shares for 3% of the shares of Datang Shizi Technology. It may seem like Microsoft is losing a bit right now, but in the long run, it's definitely a good deal for you. Wang Shizi corrected in a good time. (To be continued......)
