After consulting with the firm's partners, the lawyer borrowed the hotel's business center and quickly finalized the new contract.

In full accordance with the terms originally negotiated between Cheng Yu and Morris and others, and the requirements for commissions just put forward by Cheng Yu were added and listed on the contract.

The most important thing is that the contract completely clarifies the amount of shares held by Morris and the other four.

Three hundred and twenty million dollars.

This means that Cheng Yu has taken a certain amount of risk in the matter of share acquisition.

The price given by Oracle now is indeed 32 million US dollars.

But this is not set in stone.

This price itself is the result of a premium to the company's market valuation.

This means that if Oracle eventually changes its mind and does not plan to buy it at a premium, Cheng Yu will also need to bear the losses caused by this.

Of course, if Cheng Yu has the ability to sell this part of the shares at a higher price, the excess part will also become Cheng Yu's private property.

At present, for Cheng Yu, the first phase of Qin Manyuan's investment has been put in place, and it will be good to post it directly in a week.

And the funds for the second phase, if you count the funds in Cheng Yu's hand and the 50 million that Xue Changyun was able to take out in two months, it is actually almost enough.

This means that in the next four months, Cheng Yu actually does not have any financial parts to worry about.

As for Anthony's withdrawal, his part of almost $8 million, or more than 50 million, could not be invested according to the original plan, but it actually had no impact.

Because Cheng Yu and Xue Changyun initially lacked about 200 million funds, and now Morris and others can provide him with basically this amount, but when Morris found him, Cheng Yu felt that part of his funds could be emptied.

Of course, Cheng Yu also needs to consider the cooperation with Xu Wanting, which is related to the completion of the system task.

Fortunately, it is always an investment of one or two hundred million, and with the operation of the existing funds at hand, if Cheng Yu can't make a profit of one or two million within four months, then his investment company is really in vain.

Of course, it would be even more perfect if Cheng Yu could let Oracle increase a part of the price on top of the original premium to make the acquisition.

Even if it only increases by one or two million, it will be 10 million soft girl coins.

Cheng Yu also thought about this problem seriously, and he felt that his biggest advantage now was probably that the demand for funds was not so urgent.

Theoretically, he has at least a four-month cycle to slowly compete with Oracle.

And regardless of whether Oracle took the six-point stake in his hand, now that the acquisition of that company has been made, this matter is basically imperative.

Whether the acquisition is successful or not, in principle, has little to do with the shares in Cheng Yu's hands, but Oracle is asking for a wholly-owned comprehensive acquisition.

This condition led to the founder of that company, and he must let Morris and others sell the shares in their hands.

As an investor, Morris and the others have the best choice to let Oracle buy the company, and then use the benefits of Oracle's acquisition to sell their shares to a third party at a better price.

Let's say Microsoft or something.

This is also the reason why Oracle will require 100% of the shares.

Therefore, after Cheng Yu got these shares, his choice became extremely critical.

On the one hand, if Oracle's intention to acquire is clear and urgent, when Cheng Yu begins to delay, Oracle is likely to take the initiative to increase the price.

On the other hand, if Oracle temporarily holds off the acquisition intention because of this, or simply withdraws the acquisition option, then the founder of that company is likely to buy back the shares in Cheng Yu's name in the company's name.

Of course, the price will definitely be higher than it is now.

The worse result is that Cheng Yu delays, Oracle gives up, and the company feels that it might as well continue to develop itself for a period of time.

Then, the value of this part of the shares will immediately return to the rational level, that is, it will be less than 32 million dollars.

Moreover, it is almost difficult for Cheng Yu to successfully cash out in four months.

After four months, there will be a huge shortfall in his funds.

But Cheng Yu still has enough confidence, after all, he is also a young rich man worth tens of billions, and his family is taking advantage of the foundation of more than 100 billion, and his father-in-law still has hundreds of billions, if Lao Cheng and Lao Du are willing to hand over the company to Cheng Yu, then Cheng Yu will immediately become the richest man in Forbes China.

Well, maybe the word family will be added after Cheng Yu's name.

A guy with his own capital network of $40 billion, and a guy with an overall capital volume of more than $200 billion behind him, is something that no company dares to ignore easily.

Therefore, if you want to use psychological warfare to make Cheng Yu accept everything given by Oracle, it is almost impossible.

Instead, Cheng could even put pressure on the company's founding team to reverse the takeover – a façade, of course.

As long as Oracle really has enough demand for this company's current business, then they will definitely meet Cheng Yu's requirements for price.

As for Oracle's determination to acquire this company, Cheng Yu has no doubts.

Don't look like he's been busy, but in fact, enough investigation has been done into this matter a long time ago.

Now the more than six shares in his hands, the company to which he belongs, the reason why Oracle wants to fully acquire it, and it is wholly owned, is reluctant to even replace the shares, is because the company has a key patent.

Even after Oracle acquired the company, it had no intention of actually retaining any of its employees, and all employees would be disbanded on the spot and assigned to dozens of different positions in Oracle's vast career system.

In short, they will no longer allow these employees to continue working in positions they are familiar with, and for this they have paid for a five-year work contract.

These include the entrepreneurial team, as well as the technical team.

Generally speaking, the biggest wealth of this type of startup is often the entrepreneurial team and technical team.

But for Oracle, that's not the case.

All they need is this key patent, and all of the company's current employees are not allowed to work on the technology for the next five years.

Non-competition is often serious in the United States.

To put it bluntly, Oracle is simply taking $500 million, or more, after all, and the salaries of all employees of this company in the next five years, to completely eliminate a person who may become a competitor with itself in a certain field in the future.

Under such an investigation, Cheng Yu does not think that Oracle will compete with him for a few million dollars.

............

After reading the contract here, both parties signed their names one after another.

Next, Cheng Yu is going to take this share transfer contract and go to Oracle to have a good deal.

Morris and the others didn't know Cheng Yu's plans, and even they didn't study the company they invested in and Oracle's acquisition of them in great detail.

Of course, it is necessary for them to make a decision in such a short period of time, which is also an intentional part of Oracle.

The reason they were asked to make a decision immediately, or that the entire entrepreneurial team at that company, was because Oracle didn't want to be discovered about their true intentions.

And in a business society, any secret exposure is only a matter of time.

Only quickly enough will the secret not be revealed.

The reason why Cheng Yu can know so much is also thanks to the existence of Xiao Sin.

That guy is really easy to use.

Although he didn't have the courage to let him hack into Oracle's server, of course, he might not be able to hack in, and the time and manpower and material resources were insufficient.

But he can still easily hack into the mobile phones or personal computers of intelligent members related to this acquisition.

No matter how carefully guarded the electronic devices that modern people use frequently, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not reveal the slightest work-related content.

Cheng Yu took advantage of this and obtained some news about Oracle's follow-up employee arrangements after the acquisition of this company, and after analysis, he realized that Oracle spent money to buy this company, not to help it become taller and stronger, but to destroy the other party.

This undoubtedly gave Cheng Yu greater confidence to sign this contract with Morris and others.

Cheng Yu also thought about it and made a decision before coming to the United States.

If the contract is signed here, everything is according to the results of the initial communication on the phone, then Cheng Yu will help Morris and others maximize their interests.

Although it is likely that after his operation, it will bring more profit to himself, but he does not feel that he urgently needs this money.

But now there are a lot of twists and turns, which makes him feel that there is no pure friendship between him and Morris.

Although what happened just now seems to be Anthony's personal behavior, Morris, Hawkins, and Francis are not aware of it.

But Cheng Yu didn't think they really didn't know.

It's just that Kloten was clearly aware, and he chose to hide it.

Cheng Yu believes that if he really signed the contract just now, Kloten is more likely to continue to follow Anthony a year later.

As for the other three people, maybe they won't make the decision to follow Anthony as easily as Kloten, but to say that they don't have such thoughts at all, Cheng Yu will never believe it.

At the very least, the three of them were by no means as innocent as they had just appeared.

It was a contract that required the unanimous opinion of five people to finalize, and the lawyer had been dodging all kinds of rhetoric, but he was only in the interests of the firm, and he could not tell the truth about the matter.

Cheng Yu really didn't believe that such an established law firm in Los Angeles would make such a low-level mistake, and he directly ignored the true opinions of the other four contract partners because of Anthony, a so-called long-time partner.

In this case, the most likely scenario is that when Anthony made such a request, the law firm contacted the remaining four separately.

Kloten may have directly expressed his support for Anthony, but when the matter was revealed, he chose to return to the side of relying on Cheng Yu to handle the funds.

Morris and the other three maintained an ambiguous and ambiguous attitude.

They did not object to the law firm making greater restrictions on the terms of the contract, but they demanded that if Cheng Yu objected to it, the law firm could not disclose its true thoughts.

This should be the truth of what happened.

For Morris and the other three, they can be satisfied with a maximum of two and a half years and a profit of 200 percent.

But that doesn't stop them from feeling like they want more if they have the right opportunity.

If Cheng Yu really signed the contract just now, then after one year, regardless of whether the terms of the contract are met or not, the key to whether they will withdraw or not will be able to find a better investment channel for Anthony at that time.

If Anthony did, they would not hesitate to enforce the terms of the contract as required by Cheng Yu.

Anthony couldn't do it, so they continued to keep the funds with Cheng Yu to ensure that the 200% profit was still appropriate.

Relatively speaking, Cheng Yu believes Anthony's words more.

That is, after a year, he obviously can't make this fund generate 100% profit, after all, this money will only have a specific amount of profit until Qin Manyuan's entire project is completed.

And Anthony really didn't want Cheng Yu to compensate him for anything.

At the very least, Anthony is doing everything on the bright side.

It's called Yangmou.

As for Morris and the other three, they looked ahead and backward, and the smell of conspiracy was greater.

If Cheng Yu has to be divided into one, two, and three among these five people, then Anthony is the person Cheng Yu is most willing to cooperate with, Kloten is second, and Morris and the other three are the last.

Therefore, Cheng Yu did not hesitate to put forward the conditions for acquiring this part of the shares at a price of 32 million US dollars, and at the same time proposed a commission that he did not intend to receive.

Now, the commission is actually written in black and white in the contract.

According to Qin Manyuan and Xue Changyun's views on this project, Cheng Yu has already received a huge share of profits.

That's far from what that commission can do.

For the sake of this contract, although the word VAM is not spoken, in fact, it has become an outright VAM contract.

Even including what Cheng Yu said to Anthony just now, Cheng Yu was just pretending.

Anthony wanted to invite Cheng Yu to have a meal alone, perhaps to express his personal apologies, but Cheng Yu refused on the surface, saying that he hoped to finalize the contract with Oracle tomorrow.

However, Cheng Yu actually understands that it is impossible for him to finalize the contract with Oracle tomorrow.

Of course, he said that he would return to China tomorrow, but it was also true.

But before returning home, he actually had the idea of meeting with Anthony alone.

Without him, for Anthony to at least put everything on the table, Cheng Yu is also willing to help him get more profits on the shares this time.

Anyway, it's all about negotiating with Oracle, so it's better to let Anthony take a quick ride.

This is something that Morris and the others, after exhausting the tricks and playing smart, absolutely did not expect.

............

After the contract is signed, of course, there is a celebration.

According to Cheng Yu, it was carried out in the hotel.

Morris opened two bottles of eighty-five-year-old white horses for this purpose.

After the meal, Morris wanted to invite Cheng Yu to change places to continue the celebration, but Cheng Yu smiled and politely declined, on the grounds that he wanted to send Vincent home.

Morris invited repeatedly, but Cheng Yu just refused, and even Francis said that he wanted to invite Cheng Yu to dinner again tomorrow and thank Cheng Yu for his helper alone, but Cheng Yu also refused.

"It's really facing our traditional Chinese New Year, and I have to rush back.

There will be opportunities in the future, and there is no rush for a while.

Moreover, it is difficult to complete the negotiations with Oracle tomorrow immediately, and I estimate that more than ninety percent of them will have to wait until half a month before continuing.

After all, tomorrow is Sunday.

So, so be it this time, you can continue to celebrate, knowing that after this contract comes into effect, you will have at least $20 million in your own name in the next two years.

It's cash.

It's really worth splurging. ”

Now that Cheng Yu has said this, Morris and the others can only give up.

"Well, you really need a good rest on a long flight like this. The lawyer will contact the company, and the company will tell Oracle that you want to negotiate tomorrow. I'll tell you how the specific results will be later. ”

Morris shook hands with Cheng Yu.

Cheng Yu smiled and said, "Anyway, although there was a little accident in this cooperation, I don't want the relationship between you and Anthony to change because of me."

Everyone has their own aspirations, but there is no one right or wrong.

So, you guys guys in the evening celebration I think you can shout Anthony along. ”

When Morris heard this, he immediately said vigilantly: "Cheng, don't you think that what Anthony did is actually known to us, do you? We really don't know, you must believe us at this point." ”

Cheng Yu laughed, patted Morris on the shoulder, and said, "How could I think that, I just think that the relationship between the five of you has always been very good, and there is no need to even make friends for a business decision." ”

"I don't think Anthony is in the mood to celebrate with us at this moment, after all, although he can easily sell his shares, he doesn't know exactly what to do with those funds," Kloten said.

Originally, these things would have to be worried about after a year, but now, he was afraid that he would have to start preparing immediately. ”

Cheng Yu smiled and nodded, "I'm just expressing my opinion, as for whether you invite him or not, I have no right to interfere." Cheng Yu spread his hands.

Morris swore and said: "Cheng, don't worry, we are absolutely ashamed of people like Anthony who betrayed our small group and secretly manipulated the terms of the contract.

If he sincerely apologizes to you and us in the future, we will consider forgiving him.

But now, we're never going to say a word to him, let alone celebrate together.

Our reason for celebration has nothing to do with him. ”

Seeing that he was so resolute, Cheng Yu shrugged his shoulders and said no more.

After the four of them left happily, Cheng Yu touched Vincent's head and said with a smile: "It's not early, I'll send you back to the apartment." ”

Vincent nodded.

Asked the hotel's concierge for a car, and Cheng Yu took Vincent to the hotel gate.

Vincent suddenly stopped, looked up, and said, "Sir, are you going to meet that Anthony in a moment?"

Cheng Yu was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "Why do you have such an idea." ”

Vincent pursed his lips and said, "Actually, I think that among the five people, Anthony is the most direct one.

He disagreed, even if it was wrong, but he still expressed it directly.

At least he's honest.

And the other four, that Klotten is slightly better, and the remaining three, I don't think they are unaware of the changes to the terms of the contract.

They're just pretending.

Again, I felt that since I could see this, it was impossible for you, sir, not to see it. ”

Cheng Yu laughed.

The car came, and Cheng Yu took Vincent into the car.

Then, Cheng Yucai said: "It's really surprising, Vincent, you are really a very smart teenager." I'm looking forward to you coming to my company to help me when I grow up. ”

Vincent blinked vigorously and said, "So, my guesses are all correct?"

Cheng Yu nodded and said, "Ninety-eight is not far from ten." But what does that have to do with whether or not I'll meet Anthony?"

Vincent thought for a moment, shook his head and said, "I really don't know this, it's just a gut feeling." After all, it doesn't seem like Mr. needs to travel jet lag, and sending me back is a completely casual act, which won't stop you from continuing to celebrate with the guys just now. So ......"
