Text Chapter 111 Hole Cards

Lu was not surprised by Xiao Wei's visit on Monday morning. He had to take a keen interest in the letter of application that was handed to him.

This is a letter signed by more than a dozen middle managers. The application asks the company to consider allocating a certain amount of shares to middle managers.

Kevin Lu searched for the names of several people with interest. Xiao Zhufang did not sign, Wei Jincheng did not sign, and Shen Fanfei was not among the signatories.

What satisfied Lu Kaiwen was that Xiao Wei took the lead in signing his name.

"Huh. What does that mean? Are you going to make a surprise attack or force the palace? Kevin Lu smiled and began to communicate.

After Xiao Wei walked into this office, the tension became stronger and stronger, and Cheng Mingyang's invitations have become more and more frequent recently, and his excuse to avoid the other party has become more and more weak. The feeling of physical and mental exhaustion made him pay more and more attention to the young man in front of him about his perception. This is how tension is helplessly bred and strengthened.

Lu Kaiwen's sudden questioning made Xiao Wei stunned for a while, and Lu Kaiwen's sharp words and his relaxed tone made him unable to judge the young man's intentions for a while.

"Mr. Lu. I also think it's a bit presumptuous to do that. But I was also forced to do so. After all, the company has already started the work of equity distribution. These colleagues put a lot of pressure on me, and I thought about it for a long time before I decided to take the lead. If you don't think it's appropriate for me to do so, I can persuade everyone to make their own claims. Xiao Wei still decided to retreat as advance, he had to consider the other party's perception and adhere to his own principles.

"Manager Xiao, I said, we are friends, don't use such an honorific title to make me feel guilty. Please call me Kevin. Lu Kaiwen corrected the other party's attitude seriously.

Xiao Wei looked at the other party deeply. Lu Kaiwen's serious attitude made him faintly moved.

"Okay, Kevin. I need your advice. Xiao Wei weighed in with the other party's sincerity.

"Manager Xiao. You are a senior executive of the company and you are qualified to make such an application. This may seem reckless, but it's probably the best way to do it right now. In this way, it can not only make the equity distribution public, but also speed up the efficiency of the company's equity distribution. As for Manager Xiao's willingness to be the leader, I can only express my appreciation. It's better to talk to someone who has a commitment to talk about specific matters than to face a chaotic quarrel situation. I should thank you on behalf of the company and Mr. Ning. All right. Let's get down to the nitty-gritty. Do you have a clear plan? "Kevin Lu has a straightforward momentum.

Xiao Wei took a deep breath, the young man's single-knife and straightforward style made him a little uncomfortable, but it also allowed him to avoid psychological burden.

Xiao Wei, who has always been rejecting the trend of advocating foreign capital that has always been full of ideas in S City, saw the merits of the efficiency of foreign capital in the style of the young people opposite. It's a bit impersonal, but it does make it easy and straightforward.

“。。 Kevin. Those of us who haven't been exposed to equity matters, we only have a vague idea. So we don't have a clear plan. Guidance from the company and you is also needed in this regard. Xiao Wei was a little hesitant, he also wanted to touch the true attitude of the young man.

"Manager Xiao. How do you feel about me? Would you like to have a friend like me? Kevin Lu, who had been in a listening posture, suddenly leaned forward, his eyes fixed on the other party.

Xiao Wei instinctively leaned back, and the young man's sudden and inexplicable question made him a little dazed.

"Is it my age that makes you feel estranged from me, that you're not ready to take me as a friend? If you don't have such preparations, you'd better send this application directly to Mr. Ning. According to the procedure, I will not participate in the distribution of shares of you middle managers. Lu Kaiwen's tone became colder and colder.

Xiao Wei was not in a hurry to explain, he was judging the real purpose of the young man's constant entanglement.

The office fell silent for a while, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

"Kevin. I don't understand why you're so angry, please tell me clearly so I can explain. It was Xiao Wei who finally broke the silence, and his tone became more and more cautious.

Kevin Lu sighed softly, he didn't seem to want to hide his disappointment.

"Maybe I'm too eager, or maybe it's because my Western way of thinking is different from Manager Xiao's way of thinking. I've known Manager Xiao for a year. Manager Xiao's personality is well known in the company. My way of doing things is also becoming familiar to everyone in the company. Don't you think we can appreciate each other? Don't you think we can be heart-to-heart friends? If you are still worried about the difference in our status in the company, then your age and seniority can also make up for this gap. I clearly told Manager Xiao today that in Lingyun Company, any top manager will be glad to have your full support. I, Kevin Lu, am no exception, and even I have higher requirements for myself, I not only hope to get your full support, but also hope to get your unreserved friendship. I don't want a work friendship, it's a true personal friendship. Can I understand what I said about Manager Xiao? "Kevin Lu's large section of the confession has always been magnetic.

Xiao Wei has been listening and being moved.

A trace of pride involuntarily arises, and is very emotionally appreciated by a person who admires himself, although it will not produce the madness of lovers when they confess, but it is a kind of pride that is enough to make people surge.

The office fell silent again, but there was no embarrassment. A harmonious atmosphere is permeating.

"Kevin. Thank you so much for admiring someone like me who doesn't have much culture. I am also fortunate to meet you in Lingyun Company. At my age, I like to profit everything, and being cautious is a psychological characteristic of my age. Even if it sounds good, it will be seen as a purposeful flattery by people of my age. But such an experience fails in you. You really don't need to please someone like me, and the most important thing is that your consistent approach keeps me from thinking like that. To say a shameless word, I identify you as a friend. Not a friend at work, a real personal friend. Xiao Wei's tone was as firm as his expression.

"Okay. Remember what you said, and don't defend me. Don't worry about me. Kevin Lu quickly replied.

Lu Kaiwen's seemingly casual advice made Xiao Wei's heart beat violently. He really had an emotional swing of excitement at the moment. I seem to have achieved my goal at this moment. His cautious behavior for a period of time has finally paid off.

Maybe this young man is really his own chance, really his destined savior.

"Okay. I must have a lot of heart for my friends. Xiao Wei responded immediately as if he was afraid that the other party would regret it.

"That's good. Tell me directly about the hole cards of the collective appeal of middle managers. We don't need to bargain with each other like that. Lu Kaiwen regained his straightforward momentum.

"Yes. Let's get straight to the point. Our requirement is 20%. It can be negotiated, but we must be given a reasonable explanation. Xiao Wei's demeanor and tone relaxed. This is a comfortable way to communicate privately.

"It's so imposing. Do you know our overall allotment plan? Do you know the total share capital of the stock after it is listed? Do you know the total market value of our shares in the future? Do you know the P/E ratio of our stock on the secondary market? Lu Kevin did not hide his disdain.

Xiao Wei was a little uncomfortable, and Lu Kaiwen's tone made him feel humiliated.

"Don't mind my tone, we're friends and I don't want to hide my emotions in front of you. We say yes, we must put our hearts in our hearts. Kevin Lu quickly noticed the other party's emotional changes.

Xiao Wei smiled, and he was immediately relieved.

"Kevin. As I said earlier, we don't have the experience and just make our own demands based on our own contributions to the company. Your guidance is still needed in this regard. Xiao Wei took a negotiation posture of retreating into advance.

In front of this young man, he did not have the courage to fight for dominance, nor did he have the ability to do so.

This young man has not given people a chance since he entered Lingyun Company, and his seemingly careless management style has allowed him to establish his transcendent status, not to mention that his 50 million capital injection has made everyone lose the confidence to fight him.

"I understand you. However, the company had to consider the distribution of equity as a whole. The first thing we want to do is to protect the controlling position of Mr. Ning's legal person. For the time being, Mr. Ning is no longer able to ensure absolute control. With my stake, we can only be in a position of relative superiority in equity. The space we can give away is already very limited, even pitiful. We also need to consider the interests of the majority of employees, and all employees who have been employed for more than five years must be included in the scope of fundraising and share allocation. In this way, do you think your equity quota can still be proposed like this? Lu Kaiwen's tone became more and more stylized.

"Yes, we've also taken these issues into account, but I hope you can give us a bottom line." Xiao Wei is ready to give up his efforts, and the benefits he gets as a leader will not increase much because of the number of people, but the young man in front of him is his real purpose.

"It's not my bottom line, it's the bottom line of the company and Mr. Ning. For the safety of the company's overall listing, the bottom line of Ning's total transfer can only be 20%. Even this 20% must be accompanied by certain conditions. You should know that if the shares in your hands are bought by people with ulterior motives, then the position of Mr. Ning Holdings will be threatened. You still have to reconsider your plan according to this bottom line, and you also need to make a statement to the company. Kevin Lu gave his own answer.

Xiao Wei grinned. Kevin Lu's answer was not much different from what he expected, but his resolute and dismissive attitude frustrated him.

"We take a stand? How to make a statement? Xiao Wei tried to grasp the key to the dialogue.

"Employees acquire equity through fundraising. No one should be an exception. This is a moment to show fairness. It seems that you middle managers should also make a convincing gesture. Lu Kaiwen put on the momentum of a superior person.

Xiao Wei secretly gritted his teeth. I am afraid that such a result will cause chaos and I can imagine it now.

"Good. I understand. I'll go back and convene another coordination meeting. I'm going to make sure things don't get messed up. Xiao Wei was about to leave.

"Manager Xiao. You can do your best. You are just a mediator and a messenger, don't put yourself in opposition to them. Your prestige will still play an important role in the future. After all, equity distribution is only part of our job. I'll give you a few pieces of data that might make your negotiation a little smoother. Kevin Lu began to write quickly on a piece of paper as he spoke.

Looking at the young man's burying his head in his book, Xiao Wei had some emotion.

A young man broke into the company like a young man, and he changed the status quo of the company in a silent way, and also changed the concept of his own people.

Such a big change turned out to be a confusion that I and all the people in the company didn't realize until now.

I'm just realizing this confusion, and it's getting stronger.

The young man never seemed to make himself really familiar.

But he never seemed to be at a distance from himself.

This kind of closeness makes people comfortable, but it can't be approached casually.
