Chapter 535: Fifty Percent Premium (Asking for Tickets)
Smith made an appointment to meet Hu Changsheng again, this time it was no longer Hu Changsheng alone, Shi Xitong and Shi Lei both came, set up their horses, and planned to formally negotiate with Anshai's representatives.
Seeing that these people were coming, Smith realized that Hu Changsheng had no intention of negotiating with him before, and he had been dragging him all along. This old fox had underestimated him before.
"Mr. Smith, I wonder what good news you brought today?" Hu Changsheng asked with a laugh.
"Mr. Hu, in fact, there is no good news, that is, our Anshai Group contacted Donghai Beer Group, and they agreed to sell Donghai Beer to us." Johnson said proudly.
"Oh? Is it? Congratulations, Tokai Beer, a company that is on the decline. Does Mr. Johnson mean that he has given up on acquiring the Ice City Beer Group? Then I'll be the east today and practice for the two. Leizi, let our people go back to rest, Bingcheng Beer Group, we will run our own business in the future, and no one will sell it! Hu Changsheng immediately stood up and said.
Smith glared at Johnson fiercely, what kind of mouth, isn't it clear who is the main and who is the secondary? It's okay to deal with those companies that are going downhill, other companies have just been restructured, and the stock price has soared, do you still want to drag it until their stock price doubles?
"Wait, wait. Mr. Hu, we have not given up on the acquisition of Bingcheng Beer Group, and we have carried out it in two lines without interfering with each other. Smith stopped Hu Changsheng and said.
"So, that's what you still want to talk about? Don't beat around the bush, the most valuable thing for the Bingcheng Beer Group is the brand of Bingcheng Beer, followed by those branches that occupy half of the provinces in China. As for technology, trademarks, etc., they are naturally also included, how much can you contribute? Hu Changsheng asked straight to the point.
"Uh~~ Mr. Hu is really refreshing, direct enough. So be it. According to the stock price estimate, Ice City Beer is now worth less than $3.2 billion, but whether this stock price is inflated, I think everyone knows, right? If you let others know, Bingcheng Beer Group has no liquidity, after this month. I'm afraid that there will be problems in the capital chain, I don't know if the stock price will be frustrated? Smith asked smugly.
They are not without work during this time, and the details of the Bingcheng Beer Group, they inquire clearly. On the surface, Bingcheng Beer Group is very divided, but the liquidity is gone, and now the money on the books is still obtained by loans.
"Inflated or not, we don't want to comment on this, you just say how much money you are willing to pay, right?" Shi Lei pretended to be impatient.
"Thirty and a half billion dollars. This includes the entire Bingcheng Beer Group, but the current debts of the Bingcheng Beer Group are borne by you, Shisheng Holdings. ”
Shi Lei smiled: "Mr. Smith's news does not seem to be accurate, Bingcheng Beer Group, there is no debt at present, and all debts belong to our Shisheng Holding Group." So this issue does not need to be discussed. As for the thirty-and-a-half-billion dollars you said. We refuse! ”
Refuse?! Smith frowned, and put down the coffee cup again: "Why refuse?" This price we give. It's very high. I admit that the share price of Ice City Beer Group is still rising, but that is an overdraft of the potential of the Ice City Beer brand, and the stock price will definitely fall before the end of this month. ”
"I said no, the stock price of Ice City Beer will continue to rise until next month. This article jiàn. Mr. Smith hasn't seen it, has he? ”
Smith took the article and opened it, and it turned out to be the state's report on increasing support for the beer industry, which means that the country is going to start supporting the beer industry, the stock price of this beer company. It's really only going up, not down.
"Then how much money do you want, five billion, Mr. Hu should not mention it." Smith saw that Hu Changsheng wanted to stretch out another slap, and quickly added.
Hu Changsheng smiled: "Then I will also drop a little, 4.8 billion, this price we think is very reasonable." ”
"Mr. Hu, according to our investigation, the initial capital of Shisheng Holdings was less than 1.5 billion US dollars, and later less than 500 million US dollars were injected, that is, you invested less than 2 billion US dollars in total. After a year, you want to make more than double the profits, that's a bit too much, right? Johnson said displeased.
"Where is there a business that is not to make money, we can double the income, that is because we have the information and put in a lot of effort. To put it mildly, except for our Shisheng Holdings, even if we give you 2 billion US dollars, you can't take the Bingcheng Beer Group, let alone have so many branches and such good sales channels. Hu Changsheng pointed his finger at the table and said.
"Mr. Hu is too confident, won't SAM become the largest beer company in your country?"
"Ice beer, you say? You may have forgotten that ice and snow beer is a corporate holding in our country, accounting for 51 percent. If you don't have the Sherrun Group, you let SAM try. You are the same, I absolutely do not deny the fact that you can participate in the shares, but you will never be able to get the right to operate and control, let alone the opportunity to be a sole proprietorship. Ice and snow beer, the oldest century-old beer brand in China, is older than your company's Baiwei, which represents history and is also an opportunity for your Anshai Group. ”
Smith They didn't expect Hu Changsheng to see it so thoroughly, that's right, the reason why Anshai chose Bingcheng Beer is because the brand of Bingcheng Beer is ancient. Not only is it the first in China, the first in Asia, but also the top in the world, not to mention that Bingcheng Beer has a natural market territory.
"Mr. Smith, why don't you make a new offer, and please take that into account this time, and don't be tempting. Every day of delay, our stock price will rise, and the selling price will naturally rise. Shi Lei said with a smile.
Smith glanced at Shi Lei, there is something wrong with this kid, a fixed price, do you think you are buying a case of beer? Are we buying a beer business that involves billions of dollars in the amount of a fixed price?
Qiao said that the board of directors agreed, and the premium could be within 50 percent, since they didn't agree to 3.5 billion, I would give them a ruthless price, 400 million, this price is enough to impress them.
"Four billion dollars, this is our final offer!"
Smith said this offer, and Johnson showed a surprised expression: "Smith, you are crazy, it has risen by 500 million all of a sudden, how can we explain to the board of directors, they will definitely not agree!" ”
"I'll explain this, I'm responsible for this negotiation!"
"But the negotiation is for the two of us to be responsible, and you can be responsible if you say you are responsible?"
Ignoring Smith and Johnson's bickering, Shi Xi put his head together to consider whether the offer was acceptable.
"I think if they can offer $4 billion, they can accept another 10 percent, $4.4 billion, and I think that's the price we're going to end up fighting for." Xu Guohua said.
Mr. Zhu also nodded: "I also think that 4.4 billion US dollars is almost their bottom line, those two guys are acting, can't we see it?" ”
"Isn't $4.4 billion a bit high, I think $4.2 billion is more reasonable, our stock price can't keep going up like this, right?" Shi Guangfeng muttered quietly.
"I agree that $4.4 billion is our bottom line, and this price should be negotiable." Shi Xitong also said.
Everyone looked at Shi Lei, and Shi Lei smiled confidently: "I think the chairman's offer is very reliable, 4.8 billion US dollars, which is very reasonable." ”
Hu Changsheng Kabakaba eyes, my offer, four billion eight billion? Just now, I was just asking for a sky-high price, this is the dollar, not RMB, or RMB, and they won't agree to it if it's 400 million all of a sudden.
"If you believe me, then leave it to me to negotiate, even if 4.8 billion can't be negotiated, but it is definitely more than 4.4 billion dollars." Shi Lei emphasized.
Several of them looked at each other, and Hu Changsheng nodded and agreed. Mr. Zhu and Xu Guohua glanced at each other, and they were silent. Hu Changsheng agreed, plus the three fathers and sons of the Shi family, then they can represent the meaning of the board of directors, can they do anything other than agree?
"Well, have you discussed it? This is the greatest sincerity of our Aneshai Group, and it is also our bottom line. No matter how high the price is, we can't afford it. Smith said haughtily.
"Really? Is the Aneshai Group really unaffordable? As far as I know, Aneshai Group has a market capitalization of more than $50 billion and has at least $8 billion in cash flow. Preparing so much money is not for the acquisition of our Bingcheng Beer Group, is it to put it on the books? Shi Lei asked with a smile.
Smith's face changed, how much money did their group have in their account, how did this Shi Lei know? Besides, just because we have money in our accounts, doesn't mean we have to give it to you, right?
"I didn't understand what Mr. Koishi meant. I'll just ask you one thing, four billion dollars, can it be sold? Smith persecuted further.
Shi Lei shook his head: "Four billion dollars, which is too different from our offer." At the beginning, our chairman quoted $5 billion, and you were too high. Now that we've lowered it to $4.8 billion, that's our final offer, and it's definitely not going to change! ”
"Forty and eight billion? Absolutely impossible, too high, Ice City Beer Group, definitely not worth the price. How long will it take for us to buy your company back? ”
"If you buy it, the stock price of Ice City Beer will go up accordingly. This company is still there, the fixed assets are still there, you can't be considered a loss, right? Besides, you want a factory, a brand, a market, and you don't want to pay, why do you take advantage of this kind of cheapness? ”
Once again, the negotiations were deadlocked...... (To be continued......)
