Chapter 635: The business war counterattack begins
Su Cheng lifted the table with a tough attitude, unilaterally announced the abolition of the financing agreement, and demanded that the four investment companies compensate Vantone Express for various losses totaling 34.78 million yuan, as well as the situation that happened in the office building of Vantone Logistics Group that day, soon reached Xiao Zhen's ears.
He was a little incredulous, why were Su Cheng and Su Chunfeng, father and son, so arrogant?
Even if Shi Linhuan told Su Chunfeng some inside information he knew, Su Cheng and Su Chunfeng's father and son still couldn't see through the behind-the-scenes of this matter, which involved the struggle between the powerful forces in the capital and the Xiao family. Perhaps, they are not aware of the current crisis faced by Vantone Express, how dangerous it is, and they are still immersed in the wonderful bubble of rapid expansion of market value after Vantone Express's financing......
Therefore, they dared to decisively break the kettle and show a tough stance when they had almost no chance of winning, believing that as long as the agreement with these four investment companies was revoked, it would immediately be the same as when the financing party was determined before, and many investment companies rushed to compete for a stake in Vantone Express, right?
It is also possible that Su Chunfeng has already pulled in one or two investment companies.
Otherwise, why did he promise to acquire the equity of Vantone Logistics Group and Vantone Express held by Tianmao Group in front of Xiao Zhen?
Alas.
No matter how talented he is, smart and wise, after all, he is affected by his background and living environment from childhood to adulthood, which dooms Su Chunfeng's vision to be narrow, not to see far enough, not wide enough.
Xiao Zhen shook his head, no longer thinking about these, but handed the prepared agreement to the assistant waiting next to him, and said: "You go to this meeting of Vantone Logistics on behalf of me, and after the board of directors meeting of Vantone Logistics Group passes the equity transfer plan, I will hand over this agreement to Chairman Su on the spot, and it is said that the high-level meeting of Tianmao Group has agreed to transfer the equity of Vantone held by the group at a low price of 30% of the current market value, I have signed and stamped it, as long as Chairman Su and all shareholders sign and seal, will take effect ......"
"Yes." The assistant picked up the text and walked out.
"Wait." Xiao Zhen instructed again: "Sue Chairman Su, although the agreement indicates the latest time for the funds to arrive for the acquisition of shares, it is ...... Those binding clauses are just in accordance with the procedure, in fact, I can personally guarantee that the funds will be transferred to the account of Tianmao Group for a month or two, it doesn't matter. ”
"Mr. Xiao, isn't this good?"
Xiao Zhen waved his hand a little helplessly and said, "That's it." ”
"Yes."
……
Two days after the decision to annul the financing agreements with the four investment companies, a meeting of the board of directors of Massachusetts Logistics Group was held in a conference room on the second floor of the office building.
The participants included Su Cheng, Chen Yufang, Xu Wanfa, Yan Hongqiang, Shi Linhuan, and Wang Qing, general manager of Shangang Earthwork Engineering Co., Ltd., who came on behalf of Zhao Shangang.
Also, the assistant to Xiao Zhen, president of Tianmao Group.
No one objected to Su Cheng's decision to unilaterally abolish the financing agreement. But inevitably, everyone is very worried about the current financial problems of Vantone Logistics Group - the bank loans of Vantone Express Company are about to expire one after another, and the funds on the accounts of Vantone Express and Vantone Logistics Group are not enough to repay the loan, not to mention that after repaying the loan of more than 200 million, the company still needs to continue to invest funds. The shortfall in the funds needed to repay the loans, as well as the budget that Vantone Express continues to invest in funds, add up to a gap of more than $400 million. This is still because after the capital investment problems of the four investment companies, Wantong Express immediately canceled part of the company's planned expansion business, otherwise, the funding gap will be even greater. What is worrying is that more than 400 million is only a nominal funding gap, if you count the financing agreement signed and abolished, the bad impact, the market value of Vantone Express will have a huge decline, it is foreseeable that when the four investment companies will have the evidence of the criminal case committed by Zhao Shangang for the development of Vantone Express, submit it to the police, so that the police will take action against Vantone Express...... The normal operation and reputation of Vantone Express will be greatly hit. In order to salvage its reputation and ensure the normal operation of Vantone Express, it is obvious that more money needs to be invested to maintain and promote.
With such a large funding gap, even Shi Linhuan, who knows some inside information, can hardly imagine how Su Chunfeng can solve this problem. After all, because of the problems involved in Vantone Express, no matter who is at this juncture, they will not invest in Vantone Express lightly, right?
As the so-called house leak coincides with overnight rain......
Just now, the assistant who came to the meeting on behalf of Xiao Zhen confirmed the meeting of the board of directors of Vantone Logistics Group on the spot, and unanimously agreed that Tianmao Group would transfer the equity of Vantone Logistics Group and Vantone Express to Chairman Su Cheng, and immediately took out the text of the agreement and conveyed Xiao Zhen's words to Su Cheng.
Chairman Su was obviously a resolute figure, he did not hesitate to sign and seal the agreement, and then let the shareholders present sign the agreement in triplicate, and Xiao Zhen's assistant put away the agreement belonging to Tianmao Group.
370 million!
Chairman Su personally invested in the acquisition......
In fact, when the resolution was passed, the shareholders were particularly surprised, where did Chairman Su get so much money?
"Chairman." Chen Yufang frowned and said: "Since Mr. Xiao of Tianmao Group is allowed to suspend the payment for two months, then this fund, although it is your own, can it be used to temporarily alleviate the company's shortage of funds?" With this capital as a buffer, then during this time, we can seize the time to contact other companies that are interested in investing in Vantone Express and try our best to reach a new round of financing. ”
Su Cheng shook his head and said with a smile: "I have to be creditworthy, and in three days at the latest, I will transfer the money to the accounts of Tianmao Group." ”
"But ......"
"Rest assured, everyone." Su Cheng didn't care at all that the assistant of Xiao Zhen, the president of Tianmao Group, who was no longer a partner, was on the spot, and said with a resolute and confident expression: "Mr. Chen, the expansion business of Wantong Express planned a year ago does not need to be canceled, and development is the last word." As for the capital, the development speed and prospects of Vantone Express are obvious to all, so I believe that before the expiration of the bank loan, there will definitely be a new investment company to take the initiative to negotiate with us, then, I put the ugly words in front, no matter who found any of our shareholders, must not give a commitment privately, the market value of the equity according to the price negotiated in the last financing, unchanged. ”
Several people looked at each other.
Chairman Su's self-confidence is too big, right?
Qi Mingzhe, who is the assistant to Xiao Zhen, president of Tianmao Group, is calm on the surface and does not see any surprise or admiration, but in fact, he secretly sneers in his heart, of course he knows that the current predicament faced by Vantone Express is almost unsolvable, otherwise, how could Tianmao Group be stupid enough to transfer the equity at a low price of 30% of the current market value? Therefore, Chairman Su's remarks are just to save face in front of Qi Mingzhe, the representative of Tianmao Group. Qi Mingzhe secretly slandered: "The nouveau riche from the countryside is even more contemptible if he doesn't know that childish vanity...... Not to mention that no company will be stupid enough to invest in Vantone Express, even if there is, how can it still invest according to the market value of a failed financing hype? You Su Cheng want to get the United States, just bought the equity of Tianmao Group at a low price of 30%, and turned around and asked the equity price not to change, and easily earn 70% of the income, which is more than 100 million! Oh, the feelings are just you Su Cheng is smart, do you treat everyone else as a fool? What a whims! ”
Just when everyone was full of doubts, there was a knock on the door.
All eyes were on the door.
The door of the conference room was pushed open, and the secretary of the general manager Chen Yufang, Xiao Xu, hurriedly came in, bowed slightly to several CEOs with an apologetic face, and then walked to Chen Yufang's side and said: "Mr. Chen, the office just received a call, there is a lady who claims to be the executive vice president of Beijing Huateng Group and the general manager of the development department, Gao Minjie, said that Huateng Group is interested in investing in Vantone Express and wants to negotiate with you face-to-face, so please make an appointment and ask when you have time." ”
"Huateng Group?" Chen Yufang frowned slightly, looked at a few shareholders, and then asked, "Xiao Xu, have you left your contact information?" ”
"Well, the other party took the initiative to stay."
"Oh......" Chen Yufang nodded suspiciously, and said, "I know, you can go back first." ”
"Okay." Secretary Xiao Xu turned around and walked out.
Several shareholders have opened their mouths to ask, who has heard of Huateng Group, or who knows people from Huateng Group? Obviously, Huateng Group took the initiative to contact this time to negotiate a stake in Vantone Express...... There is something strange. Because the success of Vantone Express's financing is almost a well-known thing in the business circle, and Vantone Express unilaterally abolished the financing agreement, confirming that the financing has completely failed, and it has only been two days. The appearance of Huateng Group at this time will inevitably make people wonder whether it has no intentions, or wants to take the opportunity to acquire the equity of Vantone Express at a low price.
Qi Mingzhe suspected that this was a play by Su Cheng, an upstart of dumpling buns, who deliberately acted in front of the representatives of Tianmao Group in order to save face.
Bored!
Chu Zhuoyan, assistant to the chairman, said in a timely manner: "I used to work in Beijing, so I still know Huateng Group well. Huateng Group is a large-scale group company with strong strength, including real estate, hotels, Qinyuan juice, Huateng electronics and other well-known enterprises, which is quite powerful in Beijing. As far as I know, Mr. Yang Shubin, the chairman of Huateng Group, has a good personal relationship with Chunfeng in private, so I think it may be that Chunfeng communicated with Mr. Yang Shubin, and Mr. Yang Shubin is very interested in taking a stake in Vantone Express. ”
Everyone was stunned and looked at each other.
