Chapter 208: Resolute and resolute (the first change asks for a monthly pass)

A director put on reading glasses, looked at the termination agreement sent by the State Grid for a long time, frowned and said, "How long have we bought this Weiyuan Intelligence?" ”

“…… Less than a month. Cen Jiyan said embarrassedly and helplessly, he was about to regret dying.

If he had insisted on his opinion at that time and gave up the acquisition of Weiyuan Intelligence, where would there be today's troubles?!

But Thomas took a fancy to Weiyuan Intelligence and had to buy the company.

It's good now, all the responsibility is on his back, Thomas patted his ass and left, he is still the world-renowned "father of artificial intelligence", where does he Cen Jiyan shout grievances?

No, he can't carry this black cauldron alone!

Cen Jiyan thought about it, and his eyes began to look in the conference room.

Cen Chunyan, who was sitting next to him, kept her head half-bowed, and couldn't see her expression clearly.

Of course, Cen Chunyan is the chief financial officer of Cen Group, and this time in order to buy Weiyuan Intelligence, the five billion was negotiated by her.

Now Weiyuan Intelligence has become a shell company, and the trouble of five billion yuan is no less than the black pot on his back.

Cen Jiyan finally had some balance in his heart.

At this time, the director wearing reading glasses said: "I am a lawyer, and I remember that when I bought a company, if the customer base of the acquired company was too concentrated, it was very risky. ”

"Weiyuan Intelligence almost only relies on the State Grid as a customer to make money, such a concentrated customer base, how can its valuation be estimated to 5 billion?"

Cen Jiyan's heart moved, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately said: "You mean, this is a problem with the valuation company?!" ”

"In any case, they should make it clear why they raised the valuation from one billion to five billion." Another director looked at the memo of their acquisition and pointed out the difference between the two valuations.

Cen Chunyan looked up at this time and said: "I don't know why the valuation has changed, but what I want to say is that if the valuation is less than 5 billion, the bank will not give us a loan of 5 billion." ”

Cen Jiyan became annoyed all of a sudden, "You said that the valuation is less than 5 billion, and the bank will not lend, how did it become my responsibility?" ”

Cen Chunyan said calmly: "I just said a fact, and I didn't mean to blame anyone, nor did I say that it was your responsibility, Mr. Cen." ”

"You dare to say you didn't accuse me?" Cen Jiyan slapped the conference table and said with a straight face: "I found the valuation company, and these two valuations were also made after I talked to their technical staff, and I signed them." Now that something has gone wrong, aren't you blaming me? ”

A sarcastic smile flashed on Cen Chunyan's face, and she said calmly: "Then Cen might as well say, how did you convince the valuation company to let them raise the valuation from one billion to five billion?" ”

Persuade? Still need to be convinced?

Cen Jiyan thought to himself, if he didn't listen to him, he wouldn't want to do the business of the Cen Group in the future, it was just a change in estimates, and it wasn't deliberately cheating......

He simply sneered, looked at the directors in the conference room, broke the jar, and said: "When I reported to everyone for review before, you all looked at the ten-year contract of the State Grid, and one person raised the question of the customer cluster?" ”

"Nope! - Not a single one! ”

"You are all happy that we can have a relationship with the State Grid, and we are still thinking about the contacts and new profit points that can be brought by this contract!"

"Now that something has happened, one by one has become an afterthought! - Responsibility? Whose responsibility is it? Aren't you responsible?! ”

Cen Jiyan retorted, and the faces of the directors in the conference room changed suddenly.

Cen Yaogu coughed and said in a deep voice: "Ji Yan, now that you are talking about the solution to the problem, how can you scold the directors urgently?" Don't apologize yet?! ”

Cen Jiyan frowned and said reluctantly, "I'm sorry, I was too excited just now. ”

Cen Yaogu nodded, and before he could speak, another director said, "Okay, we don't pick whose responsibility it is." However, less than a month after the acquisition of Weiyuan Intelligence, their largest customer had a problem and terminated the contract, which should be involved in our acquisition contract, right? ”

Cen Jiyan was slightly stunned, "What is involved?" The accident came after the acquisition, and we didn't know it was going to happen before the acquisition. If I knew, I wouldn't have bought it! ”

"Protection clause." The director's voice was calm, "If the acquired company has a particularly large customer, such as State Grid, and the revenue of the acquired company accounts for 90 percent, then there must be a protection clause to protect the interests of our company." ”

"Generally, it is to ensure that large customers cannot be lost within a certain period of time. If this large customer is lost within a certain period of time, then we can claim compensation from the seller. INTERVIEWER Is this protection clause written in the acquisition contract? ”

The blood on Cen Jiyan's face faded cleanly.

“…… Protect...... Protection clause?! At that time, he was only worried that Yan Shihui would not sell it to him, and he tried his best to give him a lot of preferential conditions, and even agreed to a premium acquisition of 5 billion, how could he think of adding a protection clause? !

At this time, he thought of Xiao Yiyuan, who had a kick in it, if it weren't for him, how could their acquisition be in a mess and not follow the normal procedure?!

At this time, Cen Jiyan not only hated Yan Shihui of Weiyuan Intelligence, but also hated Xiao Yiyuan.

Of course, he hated Yan Shihui to the core.

But at this time, what's the use of hate?

He lowered his head, the anger just now dissipated little by little, his shoulders drooped, his back stiffened, and he looked defeated.

Cen Yaogu's face also sank.

Looking at Cen Jiyan's appearance, everyone in the conference room understood.

As the CEO, they didn't add a protective clause when they made the acquisition!

Cen Chunyan also showed a guilty look and stood up silently.

“…… Ji Yan, you speak, is there a protection clause in your acquisition contract? If it is added, we can find the shareholders of Weiyuan Intelligent to claim compensation, and the loss can be recovered. "A female director has a good impression of Cen Jiyan and has been speaking for him.

Cen Jiyan was silent for a long time before he shook his head dejectedly and said in a low voice: "...... This was not possible to add this clause to the contract because the acquisition was in a hurry. ”

"So there is no protection clause?! Ninety-five percent of a company's revenue comes from the same customer! And when you bought this company, you didn't even add a protective clause?! Haven't you ever thought about how much we would lose if we lost this biggest customer?! ”

The other directors in the conference room were furious, and they were also the majority shareholders of the Shum Group.

Every penny lost by the Cen Group is digging up their flesh.

Cen Jiyan's face turned pale, and he said in a trembling voice: "...... No one ever raised this question at the time of the acquisition. ”

He looked at Cen Chunyan and tried his best to shake the pot: "Chunyan, have you thought about this problem?" ”

Cen Chunyan knew from the moment he stood up that this matter could not be good.

"It's really an oversight on the part of our finance department," she said. If the other party's customer base is too concentrated and there is only one large customer, we should give the investment department a reminder of risk management. This was supposed to be a normal part of the acquisition process, but we ignored it and caused huge losses to the company, which was my fault. ”

"I'm willing to take responsibility and resign."

Cen Chunyan said, bowing to everyone, "I'll go write a resignation letter now, effective immediately." ”

With that, he left the conference room.

As the chief financial officer, Cen Chunyan actually does not have much say in the acquisition.

Everyone in the conference room knows that the really responsible person should be CEO Cen Jiyan.

But he actually threw the pot on Cen Chunyan, it was really too unforgiving.

Even Cen Yaogu, who originally wanted to protect him, was very disappointed.

As a large company that has been listed for more than 20 years, a loan of 5 billion yuan will not cause a fatal mistake, but a CEO who has no responsibility can make a large company quickly annihilated.

He stared at Cen Jiyan for a while, and said coldly: "Since this is the case, the CEO should be responsible for this mistake, and I propose to remove Cen Jiyan from the position of CEO, take back all the shares and equity given to Cen Jiyan, and make up for the company's losses." At the same time, Cen Jiyan was fired, and within ten years, he could no longer be employed by Cen Group. ”

Cen Jiyan raised his head suddenly, looked at Cen Yaogu in disbelief, and said in a lost voice: "Dad! How can you do that?! ”

He was his only son!

Ten years can no longer be hired by the Cen Group, what else can he do?!

Cen Yaogu snorted and said, "Now we are not father and son, now we are the relationship between chairman and CEO. As Chairman, I am responsible for the entire group and all shareholders. ”

"What about you, what have you done? A single acquisition can cost the company five billion! - If you don't fire you for such a big mistake, are you waiting for you to put the company out of business?! ”

The directors of the board of directors glanced at each other, and they all secretly praised Cen Yaogu in their hearts.

Cen Yaogu is actually the majority shareholder of Shum Group, and his equity crushes all the directors.

If he didn't want Cen Jiyan to leave, no one could let him step down.

And Cen Jiyan is not like Cen Chunyan, he will have the shame of resigning.

Therefore, these directors are actually not optimistic about the Shum Group, and they all plan to sell the shares of the Shum Group after the meeting.

But Cen Yaogu's words not only personally fired Cen Jiyan, but also restored the confidence of the directors and shareholders in the company.

Everyone's mood was noticeably lighter.

Someone still said haha: "Actually, Ji Yan is not bad, but he is younger, and it will be the same if he comes back in ten years, hahahaha......"

Cen Yaogu bowed slightly and said, "Everyone gives him face, but he is not angry." This time, I will try to minimize the loss. ”

Then he said to Cen Jiyan: "You go out, I'll ask my secretary to go through the formalities for you, and you don't have to go back to your office." ”

This is effective immediately.

Cen Jiyan was so angry that he yelled at Cen Yaogu: "Do you think I care?!" ”

After saying that, he slammed the door angrily and walked out.

After he left, Cen Yaogu said calmly: "Cen Group still needs to recruit another CEO, but before finding a new CEO, I propose that Lao Lei be the CEO of the transition period, what do you think?" ”

Lao Lei is the representative of the Lei family in the Cen Group.

Because Cen Yaogu divorced his wife Lei Yulin, it was when they saw that he was not pleasing to the eye, and they also secretly conspired to attack him and kick him out of the board of directors.

But as soon as Cen Yaogu said that he would let Lao Lei be the CEO, he immediately gave up his previous plan and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, did you really let me be the CEO?" ”
