Chapter 32: The First Acquisition Negotiations
The stock market finally stopped, and in the multi-purpose hall, the bosses who shouted their voices sat down physically and mentally. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The hall returned to calm, but under the calm, many people's hearts could not calm down, and some of them, because they couldn't stand the stimulation, chose to leave quietly.
Huge wealth has shrunk dramatically, and from heaven to hell, in fact, there is only one step, depending on who steps faster.
After resting for half an hour, the bosses' faces improved a little.
The heaviest losses are none other than the two groups of Gu * Ge and Wei * Soft, not only filling in the profits of many years on the repurchase, but also this round of plummeting, the market value of the two groups, evaporated more than four-fifths, almost bottomed out, if it were not for the sudden power outage in the stock market, I am afraid it would be to eat zero.
In fact, this result has already been foreshadowed, since the Phantom Cube operating system tested, the shares of the two companies, has begun to fall, if it is not for the two companies to repurchase privately, I am afraid it has fallen below the issue price.
Now, the reason why the CEOs of the two companies have not left and stay here with a dead face is to pin their hopes on Yi Fan.
They have two choices, one is to invite Yi Fan to join the company, with the right to use the magic cube operating system, as a major shareholder, of course, Yi Fan is not a fool, how can he do this kind of thing to make a wedding dress for others; The second is to ask Yi Fan to buy their two companies and completely get rid of the doom of the company's liquidation.
These two solutions are the most cost-effective for them, the shareholders.
Don't look at the Phantom Cube Group has just been established, and doubt the strength of the Phantom Cube Group, everyone has witnessed it before, when the intelligent robot invaded, the Phantom Cube operating system successfully resisted the invasion, it can be seen that the next Phantom Cube Group, will quickly fill the market gap left by their company.
Moreover, after experiencing intelligent robots, the announcement of its establishment, and the intelligent robot alliance incident, especially the military, the demand for the magic cube operating system has reached an urgent level.
With the order of the military, in fact, the magic cube operating system has been invincible, coupled with the needs of the civilian population, the magic cube operating system has become the giant of the operating system, irreplaceable, and the de facto ruler.
What's more, this test promotion, as far as Augs knows, representatives of multinational groups from more than 85 countries are here. Phantom Cube Technology Group no longer worries about customer problems.
All industries, at this time, are gloomy, the only bright spot, is the magic cube operating system, Augs believes, it will not be long, those banks with heavy losses, in order to boost performance, as well as stock prices, will line up to the door, low voice to Yi Fan loans, as long as Yi Fan is willing, funds are definitely not a problem, as much as you want.
The scenery of the past has become yesterday's yellow flower, and the people of M country are very realistic, they do not complain, and some are just trying to strive for more benefits in the end as much as possible, which is the principle of their business.
Yi Fan learned these thoughts from the micromagnetic reader, and his mood was dark, so he waited for them to send them to the door to be slaughtered.
Cindy Ruga's final test, in fact, is already redundant, the speed of the magic cube operating system, defense, etc., the testimony of more than a thousand people, so that the leaders of various countries, like drowning about to sink, grabbed the last life-saving grass, in just half an hour, they through various channels, the order to the representatives present.
Microsoft Vice President Augs reacted the fastest, and was the first to find Yi Fan, expressing his willingness to cooperate with Yi Fan.
Yi Fan, who knew Auggs' hole cards, of course, would not be easily impressed by Augs's conditions.
Yi Fan simply went straight to the point: "Mr. Augs, I think you should know that the market value of your company has evaporated by four-fifths, and the market will open tomorrow, I don't know if your company is preparing to file for bankruptcy, so I think your company is really not a commodity worth buying." ”
Of course, Augs was not willing to fail in lobbying, he had a very deep understanding of Chinese culture, and he was picky and knowledgeable, he shook his head: "Fan. Mr. Yi, I think you misunderstood what I meant, I mean, your company needs to expand, our company has the excellent R&D team you need most, an excellent sales team, if you want, including me, you can be a fan. Mr. Yi, you serve. ”
In the end, Augs even sold himself, and in his opinion, there was nothing wrong with a clever employee to market himself at the most opportune time.
Of course, the reason why Augs dared to say this to Yi Fan was that he had actually been allowed by the micro * soft high-level management.
In the past, they could sell at a price, but now, Micro * Soft Company only has some of the previous profits, as well as some real estate, and talents, if these are packaged, when Yi Fan is in urgent need, he may be able to sell them at a good price.
Otherwise, the company's stock becomes a piece of waste paper, and the workers' wages and rents alone drag down their company. Therefore, their choice is actually the wisest.
At this time, Yi Fan felt that the lack of a team of lawyers was a big mistake.
With a team of lawyers, there will be someone to do it for you in terms of price and details, rather than him having to do everything himself, which is really overwhelming.
Yi Fan summoned Troy and Yu Hongluan for them to sit in on the hearing, and together with Augs's assistants, he was ready to draw up a memorandum of acquisition.
"Mr. Augs, your initiative has shown that you are sincere, and of course, I personally welcome your joining. It's just that so far, I'm very sorry, I still don't see where your sincerity is? And, you should know, Arks of Gu * Song, Rogge of IBM, are waiting for me? ”
The knowledge of the previous work-study program, Yi Fan finally came in handy, this kind of negotiation skills, which was neither abrupt nor tactful and not hurtful, not only won over Augs, but also gave him the opportunity to make meritorious contributions, which made Augs listen to it very comfortably.
In fact, Augs is also quite hard in order to join the Phantom Cube Group, anyway, the slight * soft has become like this, no matter how bad it is, not to mention, he has to go back to pay it, so Augs gritted his teeth: "Fan. Mr. Yi, as long as you agree to the acquisition of Wei*soft, I will agree to any conditions on behalf of our company. ”
Speaking of which, Augs's sincerity is undoubted.
In fact, after removing all the costs, Yi Fan's valuation of Micro * Soft is worth up to 5.3 billion US dollars, provided that Wei * Soft must be delisted, and ensure that the aftermath of shareholders is dealt with, otherwise this kind of acquisition is meaningless, but it is asking for trouble.
Pader, the president of Microsoft, came quickly because he was nearby and he was always on top of the progress of the Augs negotiations.
According to Pader's idea, he is 10,000 unwilling to be delisted from the micro*soft, as the president of the micro*soft, although it is because of natural disasters and the disaster of the magic cube operating system, which caused the micro*soft to collapse, but he does not want to leave a major stain in his career. Of course, he has other small calculations that he can't say.
However, this idea can only be known after talking to Yi Fan face-to-face.
When the two sides met, they got straight to the point: "Fan. Mr. Yi, in fact, you don't need us to delist, you can use our company's shell listing to save time for financing? Moreover, Micro * Soft is a well-known brand, so that your magic cube operating system will be promoted more quickly. ”
In fact, Yi Fan doesn't have to worry about the problem of funds at all, not to mention the 3 trillion US dollars in his hands, at the moment, there are already several bank general managers, including Merrill Lynch, Citigroup, Morgan, Goldman Sachs, and Yuntong, who personally called him and expressed his willingness to lend.
What's more, what Yi Fan lacks now is time, even if it is a minute and a second, he doesn't want to see that his company is dominated by shareholders and shareholders, and his energy is wasted. If you take the slight * soft and leave the baggage, it is equivalent to falling into Pader's trap, God knows, what else is bad in it?
Moreover, today's global live broadcast has actually helped him make vivid advertisements.
Yi Fan shook his head and pointed to the customers received by Yu Qingluan and Sakura Masami and others: "I'm very sorry, Mr. Pader, I think you should have seen it, there are so many customers here in our company, do I still have to worry about the problem of funds?" As for promotion, I think it's up to these customers to tell you. ”
Pad was dumbfounded, his last effort failed, his eyes became gloomy, and he shrugged his shoulders in disappointment: "Fan. Mr. Yi, I can only say that it is a pity that for me, who has served Wei*soft for more than ten years, I really don't want to see this ending. ”
The acquisition is a very brain-consuming matter, and Yi Fan is only initially involved, and he feels a lot of confusion and nerve-wracking, and the demand for professionals has reached the point where it cannot be delayed.
Augs knew what Pader was hauling and chuckled at Pader's childish thoughts. What's more, he has decided to join the Phantom Cube Group, so he must perform more in front of Yi Fan, hoping to be reused by Yi Fan.
"Mr. Pader, this is the acquisition memorandum formulated according to Mr. Yi Fan's intentions, please take a look."
Augs said as he handed Pad a makeshift printed memo in his hand.
For Augs's choice, as a professional manager, there is nothing wrong with Pader, Augs's luck is better than him, and he just seizes the opportunity with good intentions, so Pader took the memo and took a cursory look: "Fan. Mr. Yi, there is no problem with the general direction of the memorandum, only the details, and I think it should be negotiated by the legal department of my company. ”
As Pader said, this is exactly what Yi Fan is worried about, the magic cube technology group has just been established, the office has not been renovated, the staff has not yet been fully equipped, and he has encountered such a big development prospect, for a while, where can he go to find a legal talent who can reassure him and trust?
There is no way, for the time being, I can only let Troy deal with it, with Troy's artificial intelligence in another dimension, after a few days, he should have mastered human culture, including the law, and he will definitely be able to sort out the discomfort in the memo until he is satisfied.
The capable work hard, the temporary worker Troy, as expected, was not disappointed, for the interests of the boss, it is definitely a baht, and the few lawyers brought by Pad were deliberately hidden loopholes, which were broken in front of him, and they looked dwarfed and speechless, only nodding yes.
Pard was very strange, as far as he knew, Troy was just a bodyguard hired by Yi Fan, and he was so familiar with the rules and regulations of the law, which made him feel very puzzled, why didn't Troy be a lawyer instead of a dangerous bodyguard?
The urgent negotiation went very smoothly, after the signatures and seals of both parties, the memorandum in triplicate officially took effect, if the micro * soft violates the contract, or the news is leaked, Yi Fan can cancel the cooperation at any time, and ask for huge compensation.
So far, the first acquisition negotiation led by Yi Fan has come to a successful conclusion. As for the handover of tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, it depends on the efforts of the micro * soft.
