Starting From The Internet Shenhao

Chapter 428 President Shen is back at Versailles

The current situation is “being afraid of two wolves with a stick.”

Zhang Guiyou is not too optimistic about the prospects of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds because of the strong rise of “Fortress Night” that just appeared.

In addition, Penguin’s sudden withdrawal from the acquisition has strengthened his worries.

So, now, Zhang Guiyou wants to sell the Blue Hole Company for cash.

Of course, it has to be sold at a good price.

If Lemon Interactive Entertainment is unwilling to acquire it, it is very likely that the game “PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds” will be crushed by “Fortnite” within a few months, and the company will fall into its own hands.

Therefore, he did not dare to really fall out with the acquisition team of Citibank, the representative of Lemon Interactive Entertainment, for fear that they would not buy it.

But what he didn’t know was that in fact, the Citibank group did not want to really force Zhang Guiyou to get back, and directly set the table…

The people at Citi also hope to achieve this acquisition. After all, the real buyer this time is Chen Hao, not Citibank!

Citibank is also very beneficial in facilitating this acquisition.

The first is to be able to charge a large amount of handling fees, and secondly, it can also draw Chen Hao into the “camp” of Citigroup.

The reason why they deliberately suppressed the valuation of Blue Hole Company is also professional ethics, since Chen Hao has entrusted the acquisition business to them.

Then they have to take the most professional attitude to work to the extent that the “employer” is as satisfied as possible.

Specifically, it is to lower the purchase price…

…………

On both sides of the negotiating table, everyone has their own ideas, hoping to raise prices while hoping to lower prices.

But at the same time, both sides hope to reach an acquisition.

There is this foundation, even though everyone on the table is arguing and arguing.

But they also made some concessions on their own psychological bottom line.

After intense discussions and friendly negotiations in the morning, the two parties reached a preliminary acquisition plan, which is that Zhang Guiyou will sell 90% of Blue Hole Company’s shares at a price of 320 million U.S. dollars.

He personally retains 10% of the shares and continues to manage the Seoul branch as the general manager of the branch, responsible for the company’s technology research and development department.

Of course, the new major shareholder Chen Hao will assume the position of chairman of the company, and in key departments such as finance and personnel, he can appoint people as directors.

In addition, the registered address of the headquarters of the Blue Hole Company will be moved to Pengcheng, and the old company in Seoul will become a branch.

In fact, the new Blue Hole company will be very strange after such changes.

Headquartered in Pengcheng, financial, personnel, operations and other departments are also located at the Pengcheng headquarters.

But in fact, the core department of a game company, the R&D department, stayed in the Seoul branch!

The reason for doing this, Chen Hao certainly has his considerations.

Because of the domestic restrictions on Korean entertainment and Korean tourism in the past two years, it will be very troublesome for Korean companies to develop games that want to enter the mainland to operate!

So he moved the headquarters of the Blue Hole Company to Pengcheng, which became a domestic game company.For games produced by domestic game companies, it is relatively easy to pass the review and get the version number.

And he is really not taking advantage of the loopholes. Chen Hao has acquired 90% of Blue Hole Company’s shares. Then he is the undisputed largest shareholder of the company!

The Blue Hole Company has naturally become a domestic game company.

After all, Chen Hao still believes that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is more suitable for the tastes of domestic players. As long as it can be officially operated in China, it will inevitably be a big hit!

As for foreign players, he doesn’t understand and doesn’t care.

The big deal is that if you can’t sell it abroad, you rely on the domestic market to operate it. The domestic market is huge enough.

Besides, he didn’t expect how much money this game would make for him…

…………

At two or three o’clock in the afternoon, Chen Hao was bored and was about to call Lin Xiaoning to ask what they were doing, and then slipped away to meet them.

There was new news from Citibank’s acquisition advisory team.

Vice President Hu knocked on Chen Hao’s office door excitedly, and before he walked to the desk, he happily said: “Citi has new news, saying that it has reached a preliminary acquisition plan with Blue Hole. We are here. The other party agreed to all the requests made by Bian, and the purchase price was 320 million US dollars. The other party requested to be paid in cash.”

The reason why cash is specifically stated is also because in large-scale acquisitions, the purchase price is often 10 billion, but seven or eight billion of which is offset by the acquirer’s company’s shares.

In this case, it is equivalent to the acquired party, and the acquirer has to bear risks at the same time.

In the unlikely event that the business does not go well after the merger, and the purchaser’s stock price plummets, then the acquired party will be in bad luck.

Buying the company’s stocks worth seven or eight billion yuan may turn into a market value of four or five billion yuan, or even lower!

Therefore, a cash acquisition is the most sincere expression of the acquirer.

However, in this acquisition, Chen Hao also insisted on the acquisition with cash.

In the case of a share swap, it would be acquired in the name of Lemon Mutual Entertainment, which would have no meaning to him.

Because the system will not give experience points…

After hearing Vice President Hu’s words, Chen Hao’s eyes lit up, so soon?

This is good news, it means that your system can be upgraded again!

He quickly asked: “So fast? That’s great! When can I make the payment and complete the acquisition? My opinion is to hurry up, and it’s best to get it done right away!”

Chen Hao naturally hopes to hurry up, because for him, that is the real “time is money”!

If the acquisition is completed one day earlier, his system can be upgraded one day earlier, and he can also get more money from the system rewards one day earlier!

“Huh? Not so fast. It’s just a preliminary cooperation agreement today. I have asked the administration to book tickets for me. Tomorrow, I will fly over there to meet with Citigroup and finalize the final acquisition plan. By the way, Mr. Shen, you really Don’t you go together?” Vice President Hu asked again.

She still can’t believe it now. With an acquisition worth more than 300 million US dollars, Chen Hao, the boss, doesn’t bother to go there by himself?

Just rest assured, leave this to yourself and the Citigroup team?

Chen Hao gently waved his hand and said with a smile: “I won’t go. Such a small matter is not worth motivating people. It is good for you to represent me in the past. I have one request, that is, to speed up and finalize the acquisition as quickly as possible. Citibank sent the money to the other party.”

Vice President Hu secretly sighed, President Shen has started “Versailles” again…

More than 300 million US dollars, which is almost 2 billion yuan!

So much money, no matter it is placed on any company or anyone, it can’t be regarded as a small figure!

But when it comes to Mr. Shen’s mouth, it becomes a trivial matter, not worthy of him…

Now that the boss has spoken, of course, the wage earner himself does not have any opinions. Vice President Hu nodded and responded: “Okay, President Shen. After I pass tomorrow, I will make the final acquisition as soon as possible.”

………………

After Vice President Hu went out, Chen Hao checked the time, it was almost four o’clock in the afternoon.

He called Lin Xiaoning and learned that Lin Xiaoning was also driving back from the city.

So we made an appointment to eat out together in the evening.

There is a very good restaurant near Pengcheng Bay No. 1, which specializes in Cantonese cuisine. Chen Hao intends to invite sisters Lin Xiaoning to eat.

On the way home, Chen Hao was in a happy mood.

Everything has been going well recently!

Hundreds of millions of luxury houses were bought, and the system was upgraded.

I originally thought that the next system upgrade would take a long time, but Citibank emerged, and there is hope that its system will be upgraded again in a short period of time!

People are refreshed at happy events, and Chen Hao is now in this situation.

The optional big Berlin speaker, which costs more than 100,000 yuan, is playing dynamic songs. Chen Hao hums while driving the car leisurely.

When passing a traffic light intersection, it happened to be a red light, and Chen Hao stopped the car and waited.

He parked another car next to him. Chen Hao didn’t care. He just touched his phone while waiting for the red light to see if someone sent him WeChat or something.

While looking at the phone, he suddenly heard the car next to him honking non-stop, so he turned his head and looked at it curiously.

It turned out that the window of a car parked on his right was already open, and a person inside was waving at him again and again, his mouth was closed and he didn’t know what he was talking about. The internal sound was turned on relatively loudly, and I really couldn’t hear the shouts outside.

But this person still looks quite familiar…

Chen Hao pressed the window button, and the window of the passenger seat on the right slowly lowered. He finally heard what the person next to him was shouting.

“Chen Hao? Is it Chen Hao?” The man shouted at Chen Hao, but his tone was not very sure.

Chen Hao will also think of this person’s name, “Liu Tao?”

Well, when I heard Chen Hao yell “Liu Tao”, the person next to him was finally sure, and he did not admit his mistake. The person sitting in the luxury car Porsche is Chen Hao!

The reason why I was not sure just now was mainly because this Porsche…

Liu Tao nodded in surprise: “It’s me, I’m Liu Tao!”

Chen Hao and Liu Tao are college classmates, of course they are not the kind that have a particularly good relationship.

Because when Chen Hao was studying, he always had to find some hourly temporary work in his free time, so the relationship with his classmates was not very close.

Moreover, after graduation, he basically lost contact with his college classmates.

Unexpectedly, I met Liu Tao here today. Chen Hao was still very happy to meet my old classmates.

Just about to speak, the green light was on, and the waiting car was whipping the horn to urge the two of them.

Chen Hao took a look, waved his hand and said, “Did you see the small square in front of you? Let’s pull over and park there.”Liu Tao nodded quickly, expressing his understanding.

Start the car and drive across the intersection. There is a small leisure square in front of him. Chen Hao slowly pulls over and turns on the double flash.

Fortunately, the Qianhai area is not like the city, there are fewer cars on the road, and it is fine to stop temporarily for a few minutes.

If you are in the city, no one would dare to stop by the side of the road temporarily, because once you stop, there may be a traffic jam behind…

After opening the door and getting out of the car, Liu Tao also stopped at this moment.

Chen Hao glanced, and Liu Tao drove a small Toyota.

Compared to his own Palamela, it is of course incomparable, but Liu Tao has just graduated a year and can afford a car in Pengcheng, which in itself shows that he is doing pretty well.

Liu Tao opened the car door with a smile on his face and walked quickly to the side of Chen Hao. First he looked up and down Chen Hao’s car and exclaimed, “Old classmate, you are Palamela! Absolute luxury car! Landed! More than a hundred?”

In fact, Chen Hao’s two million cars landed, more than one hundred. Of course, Chen Hao would not correct Liu Tao’s mistakes, but just nodded slightly.

“Where does the old classmate get rich now? I can drive this car because I have made a lot of money. If there is a good way, can I take my brothers?” Liu Tao said excitedly, rubbing his hands.

Chen Hao smiled and pointed his finger at Liu Tao’s car. “You can do it too. You can afford a car right after graduation. What are you doing now?”

Liu Tao hurriedly waved his hand and said modestly: “Where, my little broken car is totally incomparable with your millionaire car.”

This is in front of Porsche. Of course, his little Corolla does not dare to be “proud”. However, when the owner of Liu Tao, the Corolla owner, is mad.

Two or three hundred thousand BBA entry cars are all industrial waste!

A car worth four or five million yuan is just a bid, and those who don’t have money and love to pretend will buy it!

As for his Corolla, it is of course the choice for people who really understand cars, known as “suit thugs”, “road lightning”, “performance monsters”…

“I work in Ping An Group now, mainly to run business, and it is more convenient to buy a car. By the way, what are you doing now?” Liu Tao asked curiously.

He was really, really, very surprised. When he was waiting for the red light, he originally watched the Palamela car. After all, men like to look more when they see a luxury car.

But when he saw Chen Hao driving, Liu Tao found that he was familiar with him, as if he was Chen Hao, his college classmate!

Although the more they look, the more they look, Liu Tao is not sure, mainly because he can’t believe that Chen Hao can afford a multi-million luxury car like Palamela.

In college, Chen Hao had no sense of existence, except that he was a little handsome, but the point was that he was poor!

The university nowadays is not as simple as it used to be, and the comparison between students is also very obvious.

It is difficult for boys to be popular with girls only by being handsome, and the more important thing is to have “rich”!

Nowadays, don’t all pay attention to “more wealth, more billions”…

Can Chen Hao, a poor boy, be able to drive a million-dollar luxury car within one year of graduation?

Liu Tao didn’t believe it.

But now that the facts are in front of him, he can’t believe it anymore, so he is very curious about what industry Chen Hao is in now and can make so much money.

“Hehe, I’m just messing around now, in the game industry, doing mobile games.” Chen Hao responded with a smile.

As for Liu Tao’s work, although Liu Tao said vaguely, he also roughly understood that it was selling insurance…

Although the Ping An Group has a lot of business, it is not possible for them to apply for the truly high-end positions.

But as for the insurance business, the more the better, the more you come!
