0150 Lynch, who has never been afraid of being taken advantage of
It is widely known and conventionally formed as a very special social phenomenon, which has appeared since the first days of the formation of human society and continues to this day.
People will have a consensus in the inexplicable that when they are at a certain stage, what they will do, there may not be anyone who tells him exactly what to do, he has already mastered this skill.
From the first time I bought a second-hand entry-level luxury product, I gradually became a "rich man" in the eyes of people, accompanied by not only satisfying envious eyes, but also people's respect.
This is a very interesting social phenomenon, we always emphasize the need to respect the learned, to respect the cultured, in fact we only respect power and money.
In order to maintain their decency and class, the middle class needs Lynch, and cheap "high-end" clothing that they swear they will not say is a counterfeit brand.
Look, the problem is solved, Lunette doesn't say it, Lynch doesn't say it, and the people who bought these people naturally can't go around and advertise that they are fakes, is there a more perfect link than this?
No, so no one has to worry.
After leaving Lunet's factory, Lynch was thinking about something else, he wanted to buy Lunet's factory, which had something to do with some of his next plans, but he also knew that now was not a good time.
The situation has not deteriorated to the point where the mayor or society as a whole has to make concessions, so they are still insisting on deceiving themselves, and this is actually a civilized society.
When they can't hold on and maintain their decency and goodness, they will tear off their coats of hypocrisy and make people understand that this is not a civilized society, but a society where people "eat" people.
It is only in this case that some of the bills that are considered to be the norm have a chance to be changed, and Lynch can wait, he has enough patience.
Later he met with the mayor's nephew, a big boy named Mark, who looked to be twenty-five or sixteen or twenty-seven or eighteen, less than thirty, and still had some green on his face.
He was enthusiastic, and as soon as he came up, he talked about the conversation between his uncle, the controller of the city, and him, about Lynch's business and his intention to take a stake.
"I've commissioned my friend to do the research, and I have to say, Mr. Lynch, you chose the right business at the right time, my uncle ......," he shrugged, "and Mayor Langdon is very complimented on your performance, and he always compliments you on your excellence and excellence in front of your family members, which is very jealous." ”
Mark is a very good chatty guy, and people in a character like him tend to be very good at chatting, otherwise they wouldn't have taken on the job.
"I think Interstellar Trade is a very promising company, you have a great management team and a complete development plan for the outside world, and I would like to give it a ride if I can. ”
In fact, everyone knows, including Mark himself, that he is just an agent in front of the stage, but he is very aware of his work and the scope of his authority, otherwise the mayor would not have given him such an important job.
Lynch nodded, this is what he said to the mayor, "Someone has valued us at 70 million, but Mr. Mayor has helped me a lot, I am very grateful to him, and I am willing to use the estimate of 50 million as the bottom line for financing." ”
He glanced at Mark, who was listening attentively, with a smirk, "What about you, how much are you going to want?"
Mark blushed a little suddenly, he scratched his head a little embarrassed, this action made him a bit like a nerd facing a girl for the first time in school, a little embarrassed, a little embarrassed.
But this situation appears in the current environment, but it does not mean that it is a good thing, Lynch knows that the other party wants the lion to open his mouth.
Everyone actually has some small actions to hide their inner thoughts, and Lynch forces himself to unify all natural and unnatural habitual behaviors, emotional expressions, and expression management into a smile, which can make people relax their vigilance, and there is no more appropriate way to control it.
Mark's way of controlling may be to make himself look "embarrassed", and he will cooperate with this method to bite with some words.
In the next second, he was embarrassed to say as Lynch expected, "I didn't know the valuation would be so high, I only prepared 800,000, but I want three percent of the shares, and my information channel seems to have a problem, what should I do?"
Under federal and financial law, an individual who owns 3 percent of a company's stock can sit on the board of directors, and more than 5 percent can sit on the board of directors.
Three percent is not objectionable because stockholders are not qualified to speak on the board of directors or initiate any power-related actions, such as initiating voting, initiating breaks, initiating discussions, etc., they are only qualified to sit at the back or against the wall, listen quietly to the board, and they cannot express their opinions.
It's not too much of an objection to them, they're like decorations to decorate the boardroom.
However, it is very valuable to sit on the board of directors because they have completed the first stage of the share acquisition, and in the securities finance law, if a person holds more than 3% of the shares, he must make a statement to the relevant authorities and disclose it to the public.
The second stage is the 5 percent, which is to become the majority shareholder who can sit on the board.
If a person does not follow the rules and give two statements, that is, 3 percent and 5 percent of the statement, then it can be determined that this is a hostile takeover or even suspected of illegal rights and improper transactions behind the scenes, and the company concerned can file a lawsuit to delay some of the issues.
The advantage of this is that when someone buys 3% of the shares, if the company thinks that the situation is not right, it can respond in a timely manner, such as raising the stock price to force the acquirer to not have enough funds to meet their demands for the proportion of shares, and abandon the acquisition.
The three percent in Mark's hands can be directly increased to five percent without Lynch's knowledge, without a statement, and gain the power to attend the board of directors.
When a mayor's proxy gains the power to call a vote on the board, you can imagine what a terrible outcome it can be!
So Mark or the Lord Mayor behind him are very shrewd, maybe the shrewdness comes from themselves, but Lynch believes that Ferral must have known something more specific.
Facing Mark's request, Lynch barely hesitated or hesitated, everything went through his mind like lightning, and in the blink of an eye, he agreed.
"The mayor and I are both members of the Progressive Party, we should help each other ......," he said, nodding his lips, "it's time to prepare the contract." ”
Such a happy statement made Mark hesitate, he talked to many businessmen about buying shares, but these businessmen would always bargain with him, and some even called the mayor angrily, thinking that Mark was doing something wrong.
These people are stupid, there is no doubt that an agent will not have his own ideas, Mark's opinion actually represents the mayor's opinion, this young man does not dare and is not qualified to change the mayor's will at will.
Rather than making a fuss, everyone's face is not good-looking, and in the end, you still have to sign the contract, why not just have a little fun, maybe you can get some additional benefits?
Mark looked at Lynch with a strange expression, especially the way he looked at a fool, or a .......
He couldn't help but smile, "You're funny, Mr. Lynch, I brought the contract ......", he then took out a contract from his briefcase, which also made Lynch even more sure that this price was the price authorized by the mayor, and in Mark's briefcase, there should be another contract.
If he calls the mayor, the mayor and Mark will definitely have a serious "chat" and then change the price a little, but not too much, so he will definitely have a second contract in his briefcase.
Lynch picked up the contract and read it, there was no big problem, the main content was the price of the transfer and the proportion of the transfer, as well as how to dilute and how to reduce the holdings after new funds came in in the future.
Lynch snapped the contract, pulled out a pen and signed his name on the contract, then Mark.
The two of them each kept a copy, which was considered a complete transfer.
Looking at the 800,000 cashier's check, Lynch couldn't help but laugh, whether he was happy or unhappy, he would express it with a smile.
Mark saw him laughing and was a little puzzled, because the essence of this matter can be said to be a kind of oppressive persecution, but Lynch not only did not resist, but also kept smiling, which made Mark feel very special and strange.
He couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Lynch, is there anything happy to share?"
Lynch came back to his senses and nodded, he put away the contract and raised an eyebrow and said, "Of course!"
"You know country rats are cunning, and even the best house cats have a hard time catching them, but they've recently invented a new method. ”
"They boiled some water full of starch and soup on the stove, and when it was sticky and cooled, it was poured into some places where rats like to hang out, and as long as it was one night, a lot of rats would drown in it. ”
"The sugar and starch caught the mice's attention, but they ignored how sticky it was!"
Lynch stood up with a smile and reached out to shake Mark's hand, "I'm glad my firm has its first partner, but I want you to keep the price of the deal between us confidential, you know, we are worth 70 million, and three percent of your hands are now worth two million!"
"Of course, Mr. Lynch, I know how. Mark shook Lynch's hand hard and let go, as if he suddenly remembered something, "Do you have time for the weekend, maybe we can go play golf or find a place to drink." ”
Lynch shook his head, "I'm going to a town hall meeting over there over the weekend, next week." ”
"Okay, next week!"
