Vol 3 Chapter 1055: revisit

Chu Jungui didn't plan to continue the conversation on this topic, even for the current test subjects, feelings are an intractable mystery. Compared with emotional uncertainty, career and war are more suitable for me.
Li Ruobai may have a guilty conscience, so he didn't continue this topic very wisely, and instead began to discuss the acquisition of Comet De Vrey. Chu Jungui happened to receive a message at this time, from an old acquaintance, Henry of the Federal Excalibur Group. When Chu Jun returned to the beginning of light years, the two sides had cooperated a lot and fought side by side to defeat Jane and her behind-the-scenes funds.
Henry still adhered to the straight-forward style, saying: "Old friend, I haven't been in touch for a long time. Our past cooperation has been very pleasant, and it has further improved my status in the group. I have been thinking about how to repay you, and recently found out I've heard you're surreptitiously acquiring shares in Comet de Vrey, don't ask how I know, financial institutions' nondisclosure agreements are as reliable as bitches' chastity. What I'm saying is, in this matter I can help, we happen to have a couple of clients who hold quite a lot of Comet DeVrei, more than 2% combined; some funds also have shares in Comet DeVrei, and I can convince those funds to replace those All the shares are sold to me, and this part also has 1%. This is what I can control, as long as you want, they are all owned by you.

This is unexpectedly good news. For a company like De Vrey's Comet with a fairly dispersed shareholding, a 3% stake is quite important.
Chu Jungui didn't agree on the spot, he pondered for a while, and asked, "What do you want?"
After a while, Henry's news came: "If I can, I want a little share of your new company."
There are several star fields and hundreds of light-years away, but the news arrives in a blink of an eye. It can be seen that Henry used the most expensive wormhole communication. Send and receive a message like this, and the price is about to catch up with a direct spaceship ticket.
"I will consider it." Chu Jungui replied.
"They're yours now." Henry said simply.
At this time, Chu Jungui and Li Ruobai sat down in the leisure area of ​​the spacecraft. With a slight vibration, the spacecraft took off, flew out of the planet, and headed for the jumping point outside the galaxy.
"What do you think about their board of directors?" Chu Jungui asked.
Li Ruobai had done his homework in advance and said: "The old chairman has been working for decades, and his nickname is Jim the Good Guy. He owns 1% of the company's shares, and all the other directors add up to only 0.1%. So this is a For many years, a purely managerial board of directors has basically been decided by old Jim. In fact, such a board of directors has little value to the company's operation. As long as we pay a little more than the market price, they should have no reason to refuse, after all, the value of this company is very limited. , the growth potential is almost zero.

Chu Jungui said, "Let's see how far we can talk with old Jim tomorrow. He should also retire."
Li Ruobai said: "I think a 15% premium is enough, and there is no need for a higher price. After all, after acquiring the company, it still needs to spend a lot of money to reorganize the business. No rational person would refuse such an offer. offer."
Chu Jungui hesitated a little and said, "I think the 15% premium is a bit too high. If we don't acquire, the share price of Comet De Vrey will drop by 10% in the next year. We can provide shareholders with The biggest value of the company is liquidity, which allows them to liquidate their shares. Without us, if shareholders want to sell their shares, it will take 3 months as a whole and the stock price will drop by 30%. So rationally, we can press Buy at 5% below market price.

Li Ruobai shook his head: "Most people are irrational. If they believed what you said, would they still hold it until now? I bet there are many people who firmly believe that it will rise in the future, and our acquisition will boost their confidence."
Chu Jungui frowned, and what Li Ruobai said made sense. He weighed it and said, "Then try it at 10% first. If you can win it smoothly, it's better to save some time."
"That's fine." Li Ruobai had no objection.
According to the market value of Comet de Vrey, the difference of 5% is also several billions. Chu Jungui still felt a bit at a loss, but compared to other opportunities, this was the easiest to win.
After the spaceship jumped, it successfully arrived at the galaxy where the headquarters of Comet De Vrey was located. Lin Xuansheng had already said hello in advance, so Old Jim deliberately canceled today's holiday and made a special trip to wait for the return of Chu Jun.
This time back to his hometown, Old Jim specially prepared a rather grand welcome ceremony for Chu Jungui. When Chu Jungui got off the spaceship, he was greeted by a sea of ​​colorful flags, flowers and people.
There is a military band on the left and right of the apron, playing the welcome song diligently, and the standard is quite high. The artistic component can't be wrong in this regard. Many people in the military band can be called performers. I don't know why they came here to play the welcome song.
Although Li Ruobai was used to seeing big scenes, he was refreshed at the moment and said with a smile, "It's very attentive. It seems that there is a good chance of negotiating this time."
Chu Jungui glanced over, but did not see any expected faces. From old Jim to the board members to the company management, none of them were present, only a woman who was specially responsible for reception came. Chu Jungui found out from the database that she was the director of the public relations department, or a deputy.
Chu Jungui kept calm, and after a few words with the woman, he boarded the prepared flying car and headed to the headquarters of Comet De Vrey.
After a while, Chu Jungui and Li Ruobai were brought into a large conference room. The layout of the conference room is like a grand theater. The chairman is obviously a lot higher than the other seats, and there is a special high platform and a gorgeous background wall.
Old Jim was sitting on the high seat~EbookFREE.me~ looking down at Chu Jungui, with a carnivore smile on his face.
There were not only Chu Jungui and Li Ruobai in the conference room, but there were also nearly a hundred people sitting in it, and only a small part of them were known to Chu Jungui, including those who had met and read the information. Just among the people he knew, Chu Jungui felt that at least 90% had nothing to do with today's negotiations. What do you involve a large group of people at the departmental level in a company-wide acquisition?
Chu Jungui didn't make a sound, and just thought about his seat and walked away. The seat is at the far end below, opposite old Jim. Chu Jungui would not admit his mistake, after all, there was a famous brand on the seat.
Li Ruobai pulled Chu Jungui back and said, "Why don't we call all our people in?"
Of course, it is impossible for Chu Jungui and Li Ruobai to acquire such a big thing as a starship company. Following them was the entire team, with more than 300 people, and more people in the back to support. There are twenty or thirty people who can bring it to the table.
But Chu Jungui shook his head and said, "No need, let's hear what he wants to say first."
