Chapter 223 Acquisition Negotiations

Shengda Literary Company, Conference Room.

On either side of the conference table, there were several middle-aged people, each of whom was in a suit and leather shoes.

On one side is Qiu Wenyou, the president of Shengda Literature, and several shareholders, and on the other hand, Han Jun, the general manager of Penguin Investment, and senior executives.

Han Jun is optimistic about Shengda Literature and wants to acquire Shengda Literature, so he personally went out today and led the team to negotiate.

Han Jun is not only the general manager of Penguin Investment, but also the vice president of Penguin Group, and the right-hand man of Mr. Ma.

It stands to reason that he doesn't need to go out in person for a multi-billion negotiation.

But he is very optimistic about Shengda Literature, which is also related to the key to whether Penguin Pictures and Penguin Video can overtake in corners, and it is also related to the layout of Penguin Group's entertainment section.

So here he comes.

It not only shows his importance to Shengda literature, but also shows his determination to win Shengda literature.

"Mr. Qiu, you can bid."

Seeing that there was no problem with the review of various accounts, Han Jun took the lead in speaking.

"Mr. Han, it's better for you to bid first." Qiu Wenyou has a pair of black-framed eyes and an elegant temperament.

To tell the truth, Penguin Investment contacted him and said that he wanted to buy Shengda Literature, but he directly refused.

After all, Shengda literature was created by him single-handedly, and it was his painstaking effort.

And the operation of Shengda Literature is very good, and there is no need for financing at all.

Penguin Investment wants to buy, and it is a wholly-owned acquisition, so he is naturally not happy.

But just because he's not happy doesn't mean the other shareholders aren't happy.

After he refused, Penguin reached out to other shareholders.

Those shareholders were very interested in the acquisition of Penguin Investment, so they approached him together, and this led to today's negotiations.

In the initial stage of Shengda Literature, in order to develop faster and seize market share, it carried out multiple rounds of financing.

With the support of funds, Shengda Literature has become the overlord of the online literature industry.

However, it is precisely this that has led to Qiu Wenyou's less and less shares.

Now, he only holds 25 percent of Shengda Literature's shares.

In Shengda Literature, it is only the third largest shareholder.

The other two major shareholders learned that Penguin Investment was going to acquire, and they all had the idea of arbitrage and leaving the market, and he was very passive.

"Five billion." Han Jun quoted a price.

"Mr. Han, you came here in person, I thought you really wanted to buy our Shengda Literature, but depending on the price you gave, that's not the case." Qiu Wenyou laughed directly.

Are you kidding!

Now the market value of Shengda Literature is more than 6 billion.

Han Jun only paid 5 billion to buy it, which was a dream.

Originally, he didn't want to agree to the other party's purchase, and when he heard the price offered by Han Jun, it was even more impossible to agree.

Not to mention that he will not agree, I am afraid that shareholders who are interested in arbitrage and leave the market will not agree either.

Sure enough, the other shareholders also blew up.

"Mr. Han, the price you quoted is very insincere."

"Mr. Han, what is the market value of our Shengda Literature, you don't know, it is impossible for us to agree to your price."

"Mr. Han, if you're like this, I don't think there's any need for us to talk about it."

"Mr. Han, don't you think that we can't be bullied?"

Shareholders want to arbitrage and get out of the market, but they also want to take as much money as possible to get out of the market.

The price given by Han Jun was so low, it was naturally impossible for them to agree.

"Everyone, the price I quoted naturally has my reasons, you might as well listen to it first." Han Jun smiled faintly.

"Okay, you say."

"I'd like to see what you can say."

"Your reason, it's better to support the price you quoted, otherwise we really don't have to talk about it."

The excitement of several shareholders calmed down slightly.

Since Han Jun said that there is a reason, let's listen to Han Jun's reason first.

"First of all, let's talk about the market value you talked about, you should know that the market value is inflated."

"According to our research, in the past five years, there have been 30 online literature companies that have gone bankrupt, and two of them have been ranked in the top five in the industry."

"For these two points alone, I think the purchase price of 5 billion yuan I gave is very conscientious."

Han Jun took a sip of coffee, smiled faintly, and said his reasons unhurriedly.

"Mr. Han, our Shengda Literature does not have the problem of inflated market value as you said."

"The second point you said, since you have researched Shengda Literature, it should be clear that our Shengda Literature is the largest online literature company."

"Seventy-five percent of the great god authors are gathered in our company, and our company is not comparable to other companies."

"With those authors, our company has been able to produce a steady stream of high-quality networks, with a very steady readership and a steady increase every year."

"Our supremacy in the online literature industry is unshakable, let alone bankruptcy."

Qiu Wenyou refuted the two reasons for Han Jun's words one by one.

Especially when it comes to the second point, there is a pride in the words.

Shengda Literature is a veritable overlord in the online literature industry.

The person who created this overlord is Qiu Wenyou, and he has reason to be proud.

Although this industry, the ceiling is a little lower.

To be the industry leader, the company is only more than six billion.

But being able to make Shengda Literature the leader of the industry has already shown his ability.

In addition, the strength of Shengda Literature is beyond doubt, and it is not comparable to those companies that have failed or those companies that have not gone bankrupt, but are far from Shengda Literature.

"Mr. Qiu is right, our Shengda Literature is different from other companies."

"Our company is the industry hegemon, and the great god author was basically born in our company."

"Any author who dreams of becoming a great god will choose our Shengda literature."

"This is our advantage, an incomparable advantage, an advantage that other network companies cannot match."

"With this advantage, we are far ahead of other network companies."

Qiu Wenyou's shareholders have expressed their support for Qiu Wenyou.

The two sides negotiated and clashed, and what Qiu Wenyou said was indeed very beautiful.

They all have to sigh that Qiu Wenyou is worthy of being the person who has made Shengda Literature the overlord of the online literature industry.

"You say that 75% of the outstanding web writers are signed by your company, and I don't deny this."

"But you have to be clear that these online authors can sign up to write books with you, or they can sign contracts to write books on other websites."

"As long as you are willing to spend money and give them the money you want, I'm afraid that many of those authors will be willing to leave."

"Do you still think you have an advantage?"

Han Jun smiled faintly, feeling that Shengda Literature had an advantage, but that's it.

Hearing this, Qiu Wen's faces changed slightly.

Of course, they know this.

The choice of which website the web writer chooses to write on is entirely up to the web author's own will.

If someone is willing to pay for those online authors to be treated much higher than in Shengda Literature, those online authors will definitely be tempted.

At least most of the web authors will leave.

Or at the same time as Shengda Literature writes, it is also written on other Internet sites.
