6-4 Hostile takeover of Zhicheng Group
After the end of the board of directors, Wei Ziqian found Li Kun and said with a somewhat uneasy expression: "Mr. Li, I have found some things that may be very important." ”
Li Kun said as he walked: "What's the matter, look at you nervous like this." ”
Wei Ziqian said: "Someone is hostilely buying shares of Zhicheng Group. ”
Li Kun stopped, stared at Wei Ziqian's eyes and said, "Are you sure?" Who is operating? ”
Wei Ziqian shook her head: "I don't know, but the other party must have come prepared, they have a very high price, and they are determined to win, and there are already many small shareholders who have secretly sold their shares to them." ”
Li Kun said: "Don't be nervous, our company is not listed, most of the shares are concentrated in the hands of a few major shareholders, and it is not so easy to make a hostile takeover." ”
Wei Ziqian said: "This is exactly what I am worried about, as long as a few important shareholders are dealt with and more than 51% of the shares are held, Zhicheng Group will change hands." ”
Li Kun sneered: "The group is in full swing, who would be so stupid to give up the shares in their hands, besides, if you want to swallow the Zhicheng Group, you can't have a pair of iron mouths and steel teeth, I don't think there is such a role in Jiangbei City." ”
After speaking, Li Kun left, and the high heels stepped out of a series of loud footsteps, looking extremely confident, but Wei Ziqian still shook her head worriedly, as the assistant to the president, she knew that although Zhicheng Group now looks like a behemoth, but there are many hidden dangers, the internal relationship is complicated, the Longyang project and the Linjiang project are like a bottomless black hole, the group has accumulated all the funds accumulated over the years, and there is no penny of income so far, and now the group's operation is completely dependent on bank loans. The short-term and long-term borrowings on the books are already astronomical, and the monthly financial expenses caused by the interest on the loans are a shocking huge amount of money, plus the millions of compensation paid to the demolition households yesterday, the company has no money on its books!
Real estate companies purely rely on capital operation, without large-scale financial support, can not be maintained for a day, the same is true of Zhicheng Group, the current situation can be described as dangerous, no accident is enough, an accident is a loss.
I hope I can break through this time, Wei Ziqian sighed and left quietly.
In the president's office, Li Kun frowned, holding the recent cash flow statement in his hand, there was no money in the company's account, and the compensation paid to the demolition households yesterday had actually used Li Kun's private deposits, and she had already known the situation that Wei Ziqian said, but the more at this time, the more she had to show enough confidence.
Who is it who quietly acquired Zhicheng Group behind the scenes, Li Kun knows very well in his heart, this matter must be done by Nie Wanlong, who has been angry about the change of hands of the high soil slope plot, but if he wants to swallow Zhicheng in one bite, he does not have that appetite for large-scale development, unless it is ......, it is impossible, Li Kun shook her head gently, she still has a hole card in her hand, that is President Dai of CCB, this Yin Zhijian's classmate has promised himself that the loan of 30 million yuan will be transferred to the account of Zhicheng Company recently, With these 30 million, we can solve the urgent need, at least let the company tide over this difficulty.
It was with the backing of the 30 million yuan that Li Kun made the decision to pay the demolition money in full, for which the board of directors also had a debate, and finally Li Kun made a decision against public opinion, but she also felt a little uneasy in her heart, and if the loan did not arrive for a day, her heart would hang for one more day.
I was about to make a call to President Dai, when suddenly the internal phone rang, it was from the front desk, saying that Mr. Han Shihe was visiting, and Li Kun hurriedly said that he was invited in.
Han Shihe is a shareholder of the company, in the early days when the company was first established, he invested 100,000 yuan into it, and over time, the shares worth 100,000 yuan have increased to 1.2 million, but Han Shihe is still only a small shareholder, he is not qualified to enter the board of directors, and he cannot keep abreast of the company's financial situation.
For these old shareholders, Li Kun has always been respectful, she personally went to the door of the office to welcome Lao Han in, and asked Xiao Jiang to make tea, personally accompanied Lao Han to sit down on the sofa, and asked kindly: "Uncle Han, why do you have time to come?" ”
Lao Han said with some twist: "My child wants to buy a house in the United States, and I don't have enough funds on hand, so I want to transfer the company's shares." ”
Li Kun said: "That's it, no problem, but I still have to advise you, our company is developing very rapidly, almost snowballing, Zhicheng's stock is the hen that lays golden eggs, it's a pity to transfer it." ”
Lao Han said: "I know, but the family really needs money, and this is also something that can't be helped." ”
Li Kun said: "Who do you want to transfer the shares to? ”
Lao Han said: "Fertilizer and water do not leave outsiders to the field, Mr. Li, you will take my shares." ”
Li Kun was stunned, she couldn't take out more than one million cash in her own private account, but she couldn't show it in front of Lao Han, so she smiled: "Uncle Han, you don't necessarily have to transfer it to me, our company's shares are so sought-after, you are willing to transfer it, everyone is not crazy to rob it." ”
Lao Han said: "Now the rumors outside are very powerful, and I have so many shares in my hands, it is really not easy to change hands for a while." ”
Li Kun asked, "Oh? What are the preaches? ”
Lao Han said: "They said that there was a problem with the group's funds and there was no money to do projects. ”
Li Kun smiled lightly: "Five years ago, they were saying that Zhicheng Group was going to go bankrupt, but Zhicheng Group is not good, and it is getting bigger and bigger, and it is an indisputable fact that the annual dividend is quite generous, if you are really short of money, I can take this part of the shares, and then take it back when you have enough money, what do you think?" ”
Lao Han said: "Then thank you so much to Mr. Li." ”
Li Kun pressed the internal communicator: "Ziqian come in." ”
Wei Ziqian walked in lightly, standing silently by the door and waiting for the president's dispatch, Li Kun said: "Ziqian, you help Mr. Han calculate the shares in his hand, take it at the market price, and use the funds in my account." ”
Wei Ziqian nodded and said, "Here, please, Mr. Han." ”
Lao Han followed Wei Ziqian, Li Kun's face gradually became serious, it seems that the matter is more serious than Wei Ziqian said, someone is secretly buying the shares of Zhicheng Group, and then smashing them out at a low price, and at the same time creating a panic atmosphere with rumors, so that shareholders can force themselves to the palace, this hand can be described as extremely ruthless, specializing in the lifeline of Zhicheng Group, that is, funds!
In order to further verify her speculation, Li Kun picked up the phone on the table and began to call some shareholders she was familiar with, of course she would not directly inquire about the shares, but knocked on the side by greetings, and the result surprised her, the shares of these small shareholders were bought at a high price as early as three months ago.
An hour later, Wei Ziqian walked into Li Kun's office and said softly: "Lao Han went back, I asked him to come back next Monday to get the check, according to financial data, the stock in his hand is worth 1.25 million yuan, and you only have 300,000 yuan in your account, and only 1 million in the company's account." ”
Li Kun rubbed his temples and said without opening his eyes: "Give him, write him a transfer check for 1.3 million yuan, let the finance come out, and you send it to his house." ”
Wei Ziqian said: "But the money is given to him, what if there is another old Han?" ”
Li Kun said: "Ziqian, you should understand, this is not an old Han problem, someone is smashing Zhicheng's stock price, we must protect the disk at all costs, otherwise an avalanche will be formed, the group will be really finished, as long as the old Han is stabilized, we will win a game first, and the situation will be reversed as soon as the loan arrives." ”
"Okay, I'll do it." Wei Ziqian bit her lip and turned around.
……
Lao Han's family, Hou Zhenye was sitting on the sofa swallowing clouds and spitting fog: "Old Han, I'm right, the company is already an empty shell, and I can't even take out a million yuan, my wife is Li Kun's eldest sister, it is said that it is a family, but our stocks have long been sold at a loss, don't care about her blowing the sky, it is true to hold cash in your hands." ”
Lao Han hesitated and said, "You all say that, but don't I think the company is good?" ”
Hou Zhenye said: "Old Han, you don't understand this, the more you have no money, the more you have to pretend to be rich, I will make a bet with you today, you will not get the money next Monday." ”
As he was talking, Lao Han's family had another guest, it was Wei Ziqian, assistant to the president, she was here to deliver a check to Lao Han, seeing Hou Zhenye present, Wei Ziqian was only slightly surprised, and then politely said hello, and asked Lao Han to sign the check stub and go back.
Lao Han shook the transfer check at Hou Zhenye with a transfer check in his hand: "Didn't you say that you won't be able to get the money next Monday?" They also gave an extra 50,000 yuan. ”
Hou Zhenye smiled disdainfully: "The blank check is worthless, you wait and see." ”
……
This weekend Li Kun had a particularly difficult time, after paying 1.3 million yuan to Lao Han, there was no penny in the company's account, and even next month's salary could not be paid, let alone repurchase the shares of other shareholders, Li Kun calculated that this crisis would take at least 50 million to deal with the past, and there was no money in his private account, only real estate was left, but if the real estate was sold, it would be equivalent to directly announcing to the outside world that the capital chain of Zhicheng Group was broken.
Now all the hope is on President Dai, after the 30 million is received, Li Kun will be able to deal with all the difficulties, but President Dai suddenly evaporated from the world, and he couldn't contact him, looking for Yin Zhijian, Yin Zhijian also said that he couldn't find this old classmate.
On Monday, Lao Han took the transfer check to the bank, and handed the check to the counter with trepidation, and the check was returned two minutes later, and the young teller said with a pleasant face: "Sorry sir, the bank account of Zhicheng Company has been frozen." ”
"What? What freezes? Lao Han was stunned, and those alarmist words said by Hou Zhenye suddenly appeared in his mind, Zhicheng Group is already a debt-ridden shell, and if these stocks are not thrown away in time, they are not even as good as waste paper.
At the same time, Li Kun was also stunned, a team of prosecutors in navy blue uniforms and staff of the local taxation inspection bureau composed of a joint investigation team stationed in the group's finance department, demanding access to the financial information of the past three years and examining the group's tax settlement, in order to cooperate with the investigation, the procuratorate has applied for the seizure of the company's basic accounts.
The operation of the Zhicheng Group has always been law-abiding, and the procuratorate and the tax bureau have not found any major problems, but the turmoil caused by their large-scale entry is fatal, like pouring a barrel of gasoline on the flame of rumors.
The phone of the president's office rang non-stop, all of them were questioning calls from shareholders, and Li Kun pushed them to Wei Ziqian to deal with them, and he sat in the office to calm down.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the office door, and Yin Zhijian walked in, with a tired face and swollen eyes.
"Found President Dai?" Li Kun asked.
"Found it."
"What do you say about loans?"
He said...... The central bank issued a policy to strictly control loans to real estate enterprises, he ...... I can't help it. ”
Li Kun sat deeply into the wide chair and muttered, "I know, this is a bureau from the beginning, a well-designed bureau. ”
Yin Zhijian walked up to Li Kun and opened his suitcase, which was neatly stacked with brand-new cash.
"There are two million here, which can handle it."
Li Kun looked into Yin Zhijian's eyes and asked, "Where did this money come from?" ”
The corners of Yin Zhijian's mouth twitched: "I was deceived by Lao Dai, otherwise the company wouldn't have reached this point, I sold my house and car, that's all." ”
The two were relatively silent, silent for a long time.
Suddenly, the door of the office was slammed, and Lao Han angrily broke through the obstruction of the assistants and walked in, asking: "Mr. Li, why don't you talk and don't count, you promised to give me money on Monday, where is the money!" ”
Li Kun said coldly: "Mr. Yin, give him money, 1.25 million." ”
Seeing the cash in the suitcase, Lao Han's attitude changed sharply, left the stock endorsement and signature in his name, and left with 1.25 million yuan under the supervision of the accountant.
Lao Han left, but more Lao Han rushed over, asking the company to buy back their shares, Lao Han's shares are less than one percent of the company's total share capital, which has already made Mr. Li anxious, where to get a large amount of money to buy back more shares.
Since the company is unwilling to repurchase, the shareholders have to sell at a low price to those who are willing to take over, an invisible hand is secretly manipulating the stock price, buying high and selling low, suppressing at all levels, and creating various rumors to hit the confidence of shareholders, their ultimate goal is obvious, that is, to acquire the entire Zhicheng Group.
But this is not an easy task, because most of the shares of Zhicheng Group are in the hands of a few people, they are unwilling to sell, no matter whether the stock price rises or falls, others cannot control Zhicheng Group.
In the large conference room, the temporary board of directors was being held, the directors were all pale, without saying a word, and after Li Kun introduced the recent situation, Lao Jin, the director with the most shares, stood up and said: "I didn't expect the company to come to this point, I want to quit, so as not to have a void." ”
The two directors sitting next to Lao Jin also raised their hands and said, "We are advancing and retreating with Lao Jin." "The shares of the three of them together can account for 30 percent of the company's total share capital, and if these shares fall into the hands of Da Kai, Li Kun's position as president will not be stable.
Li Kun said earnestly: "Please believe me, the company's accounts are not problematic at all, the operation is also normal, all these are competitors playing ghosts, as long as you persevere, Zhicheng can tide over this difficulty, and will develop stronger and bigger." ”
Lao Jin said: "Mr. Li, of course we believe in you, but we believe in the facts, the procuratorate and the tax bureau are in and out of the company, what do you let others think, now there are rumors outside, we don't want to invest into waste paper, we have cooperated for so long, finally have some feelings, I don't hide it from you, someone is willing to buy the shares in my hand at a high price, but I didn't promise him, I don't think you can be like this, even if you quit, you have to take care of your own people first, so let's do it, three days later, we will publicly sell the shares under our name, The highest bidder gets it, so be it. ”
After speaking, the three directors grabbed their bags and walked away, and the rest of the directors also left the conference room after whispering for a while, leaving only Li Kun with a dead face.
Just an hour ago, Wei Ziqian told Li Kun that the development of the development of 50 million yuan personally signed and approved by President Dai, coupled with the development of its own funds, the acquisition of the Chengcheng Group is absolutely a breeze.
How many years of ups and downs, hardships, and even the life of the husband have created today's Zhicheng Group, it can be said that the company is another child of Li Kun, and his own children will be given to others, no matter who can bear this blow.
The door of the conference room was pushed open a crack, and a small head came in, it was his son Xiaocheng, who came over with a pair of fat little hands, and shouted in a milky voice: "Mom, Mom." ”
"Child, mommy hug." Li Kun opened his arms and hugged his son tightly in his arms, his cheeks pressed against his son's face, and two lines of hot tears rolled down his cheeks.
"Mom doesn't cry, mom is good." Xiao Cheng was very sensible and helped Li Kun wipe his tears and said.
"Mom didn't cry, Mom just got worms in her eyes, by the way, who brought you here?"
"It's Daddy." Xiao Cheng pointed to the figure in the corridor and said.
