Chapter 41: Acquisition of Maddie
Locking in the goal of Medi Investment Service Company, Tang Bao learned a lesson, and did not rush to the door, but let Nick go alone to explore the path and try the other party's wishes. If the company intends to sell or accept shares, Tang Bao will come forward to discuss with them in detail.
Even if he was rejected, Tang Bao didn't show up, so he wouldn't be too embarrassed.
……
Soon.
Nick came to Medi Investment Services, a small office crowded with desks, there were more than a dozen employees working together, the environment was not too good, it seemed that the company's economy was not well-off.
"Hello, welcome to Medi, is there anything you need to serve?" When he saw Nick walk in, he was greeted by a young man with a smile.
Nick smiled, "I'm looking for your boss Gus." ”
"Ah, wait a minute."
After the visitor finished speaking, he hurried away.
Soon.
A man of about fifty years of age walked over, followed by the young man who had greeted Nick earlier. Nick understood that the man in front of him was Gus, a Chinese-American. This is also one of the reasons why Tang Bao still wants to try again after hitting a wall in a row.
"Hello, I'm Gus."
"Let me introduce myself, my name is Nick. I have a business I want to talk to President Gus, I wonder if you are willing to do so? Nick made a brief introduction to himself, and explained his intentions straight to the point, but of course, his words were also very ambiguous, and it was easy for Gus to think that Nick had come to seek investment advice.
Gus was also interested, and instead of asking, he invited Nick into his office.
"Seeing that Mr. Nick is extraordinary, I don't think he will come to our small investment service company to seek investment consulting services, right?"
Nick smiled and said bluntly, "My boss wants to buy Medi Investment Services. ”
Yes.
Gus was surprised by Nick's directness. But he didn't respond immediately, in the past two years, there have been more than one or two investors who want to buy shares or even control Maddie, but in order to maintain his independence, Gus refused without hesitation. However, the company's situation has not been good recently, and it is very short of money......
This time, he hesitated.
Gus was wondering if it was time to let go. He is really tired from running Medi Investment Services, and his business has not improved much, he is half-dead, and he has already had the idea of selling the company some time ago. And Nick's intention made him start to think about this issue seriously.
Nick didn't rush to ask, giving the other party enough time to think about it.
Call.
Gus took a deep breath and made the difficult decision to sell Maddie Investment Services. "If the price is reasonable, we can negotiate."
"Okay, I'll notify the boss as soon as possible." Nick said with a smile. After saying that, Nick said goodbye and left, he was just here to explore the way, and the real acquisition negotiations still need to be led by Tang Bao himself, and there is no point in him staying. At this time, it is important for him to bring back this good news.
On the campus of Columbia University.
Tang Bao was overjoyed when he heard Nick's report, since he implemented his plan to acquire a rating company, it was always difficult and he ran into walls everywhere.
"Boss, if you have no problem with the time, then I will make an appointment with the other party to negotiate time." Nick said.
"The sooner the better."
Tang Bao said with a smile, very urgent.
Two days later, across from Medi Investment Services, in a Chinese restaurant.
"Hello, Mr. Gus." Tang Bao, who had been waiting in the restaurant for a long time, saw Ge Si coming, and stepped forward to shake hands with him with a smile. The other party is about the same age as his father, but he is a little old, perhaps because he is heartbroken about running the company, and his hair is already gray.
"You are?"
Gus saw that Tang Bao was an Asian face, slightly kind, but what he wanted to say was that he seemed to be somewhat familiar with Tang Bao, as if he had seen it somewhere.
"This is my boss, Tang Bao, who is Chinese." Nick introduced at the right time, he knew that Gus was Chinese, and pointed out that Tang Bao was Chinese and might be of some help to the next acquisition negotiations, and as a personal assistant, he had to always think about his boss.
Yes.
Gus suddenly realized, and finally understood where that sense of familiarity came from, some time ago, the media overwhelmingly reported Tang Bao's deeds, including Tang Bao's photos. smiled: "Ha, it turns out that you are Tang Bao." What a hero is a teenager, and he can achieve such an achievement at such a young age. ”
"You've won a prize." Tang Bao said politely.
After chatting casually, the two sides got to the point.
Ge Si has a general understanding of Tang Bao's achievements in the field of investment, after all, he is also Chinese, so he naturally pays more attention to his compatriots.
But.
Tang Bao planned to acquire Medi Investment Services, but Gus was a little incomprehensible. His company is worth six or seven million dollars at most, and it doesn't seem to be worth much.
"Mr. Gus, after evaluation, we believe that the value of Medi Investment Services is about eight million dollars. I'll pay 10,000,000 dollars for a wholly owned acquisition! Tang Bao began to offer, in order not to startle the snake, this time Tang Bao's acquisition did not ask the appraisal agency to appraise, this price was suggested by Nick, Tang Bao thought it was feasible, so he took this purchase price.
The estimate is $8 million, and the acquisition offer is $12 million.
50% Premium!
Tang Bao believed that Gus would not refuse.
In fact, this is also true.
Both the valuation of the company and the purchase price are impeccable, and since he has decided to sell the company, he is naturally happy to sell it at a good price.
"Ha, Mr. Tang is really generous. I am very satisfied with the purchase price. "Gus is also a kind person, and he is not greedy to raise the price.
"Okay, then it's a pleasure to work together." Tang Bao said with a smile.
"Haha, nice to work with. To be honest, the performance of Medi Investment Services is not satisfactory, I am heartbroken for the company, and now I sell the company, and suddenly I feel relaxed, maybe I should really reach the age of rest. Gus said with a smile.
The takeover negotiations lasted less than five minutes.
And that's it.
Tang Bao paid $12 million to successfully acquire Medi Investment Services. Only payment can be made, and the change of equity can be registered.
After the business was over, Ge Si couldn't help but talk a lot when he saw Tang Bao, a compatriot.
"Heh, you're not old at all." Tang Bao said with a smile.
"Hey, I've been in the United States for nearly 30 years, and I don't know what has become of my hometown." Gus sighed. He was smuggled into the United States, coinciding with the amnesty, and took American citizenship. As soon as this person is old, he also has the idea of returning to his roots, and homesickness is inevitable, especially when he sees Tang Bao from China, this mood is even more urgent.
"The development is certainly not as good as that of the United States, but it will get better and better in the future." Tang Bao told the truth. "In the future, domestic and foreign exchanges will increase, you can go back and see for yourself."
……
Tang Bao and Ge Si chatted while eating at the dinner table, chatting for a long time, all about domestic affairs. The two communicated in Chinese, which made Nick next to him confused, depressed, and couldn't help but think to himself whether he should learn Chinese.
Afterwards.
Tang Bao transferred the purchase money into Gus's bank account. The two parties went to the company's registration office together to register the change of shares, but they ran into trouble here.
