Chapter 237: Take Out 6 Million
The person sitting in the middle of the circular sofa is Zhang Zaihou, the most experienced and powerful investor.
Zhang Zaihou did not have his own company. Many finance professors in universities were his students. He specialized in serving as an investment consultant to businessmen, and his consulting fee was as high as one million US dollars per hour.
Yes, his charging unit is US dollars because he has been working as a financial director in a foreign securities company for a long time.
"Congratulations, Mr. Xu." Zhang Zaihou was quite old, and his voice was old. "You're only 24, and you're so far-sighted at such a young age. You're truly a young and promising person."
People in the investment circle become more shrewd as they get older, so Xu Yang doesn't dare to take it lightly.
"Mr. Zhang is joking. He was just throwing it for fun. It's just luck."
He was still joking at this moment, but the next second Zhang Zaihou's words made him feel a chill down his spine.
"Then I'm afraid Mr. Xu's luck has run out." Zhang Zaihou gently shook his wine glass. "Hongyun has an internal clause that allocates equity according to the proportion of investment. Now Hongyun has introduced two foreign production lines with a total value of 25 billion yuan. We and Mr. Liu can jointly invest billion yuan. Mr. Xu holds a % stake, so I believe he can contribute more!"
The total amount needed was 10.6 billion yuan, and Liu Songtao contributed 6 billion yuan, accounting for more than half.
It’s okay that Xu Yang can afford the money.
If he can't come up with the money, Hongyun's top management can distribute Xu Yang's shares to Liu Songtao according to his investment. This is the clause, and there is no other way if he can't come up with the money.
Sure enough, he still didn't give up trying to grab the cake in his hand.
Xu Yang smiled helplessly: "Mr. Zhang should know that even if I sell myself, I can't come up with so much money."
The purchase of Jiaxing Film and Television would only cost 2 billion yuan at most, plus the hospitals, hotels and entertainment venues invested by the Xu family. Adding up all the scattered amounts, and with the credit guarantee, they could borrow some money from the bank, but it was still far from the 6 billion yuan that Liu Songtao had put out.
Hearing this, Liu Songtao seemed to have turned the tables and said with a smile, "Mr. Xu, it's good to know. I'm not forcing you, but if you really can't hold on to 25%, we don't want much, just 10%. Then you'll still have 15% of the shares and will still be our largest shareholder. What do you think, Mr. Xu?"
Being able to be reborn is also a form of strength. Why should Xu Yang give away the things he snatched with his strength to others?
"I really can't come up with that much money, but I won't give up a single cent of my shares. If you really want to pay 6 billion, then go ahead."
He didn't believe that these old investors were really willing to gamble so much money with Liu Songtao. If they really dared to gamble, he would just accept it if he couldn't hold on to the stock.
His desperate words made Liu Songtao dare not cross his legs anymore, and he immediately sat up straight.
"Mr. Xu, we're not kidding you. Don't even mention transferring it to Mr. Li. If we really pay out 8 billion, and Mr. Li has % on his balance, he'll have to pay out over billion. He can barely protect himself!"
Someone echoed, "Mr. Xu, don't underestimate us. We old guys can still afford six billion."
Xu Yang's eyes swept across their faces, finally landing on Zhang Zaihou's face: "If I really transfer it to you, you've contributed 13 billion for a combined 15% of the shares. Then, if I contribute % of the shares in proportion, won't I still not be able to afford this amount?"
And if these old guys can really come up with 10 billion, why would they only want % of the shares?
This is a loophole. Based on this, he concluded that it would be difficult for a few old men to come up with 6 billion, and he said this just to make him lose his composure.
Sure enough, Xu Yang saw the faces of the people present froze.
Zhang Zaihou suddenly smiled: "Mr. Xu's eyesight is indeed extraordinary."
Xu Yang didn't dare to answer, for fear of feeling a chill on his back like before.
"Yes, we can't come up with 25 billion, but Mr. Xu, we can still come up with or billion. Assuming we come up with billion, you'll have to pay eight times more for your % stake. In the end, you still can't afford it, so it's better to make a decision soon and transfer it if it's necessary."
Xu Yang frowned. "But I'm reluctant to transfer so much. How about you guys discuss transferring 5%?"
Seeing him give in, the person on the sofa was stunned.
Several people looked at each other. There were five of them, and the original plan was 2% each. Now Xu Yang was only willing to give 5%, so they could only get 1%.
Liu Songtao shook his head: "No, it's too little. I know you're reluctant to part with it, but you have to hold on to it. It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one. Hurry and transfer this 10%."
Xu Yang did not answer, but turned to look for Li Chi in the crowd.
Li Chi is a celebrity in the investment circle. There are always people toasting him. He definitely cannot spare the time to help me at this moment.
"That's not enough. You only hold 3% of the shares. 5% is already a lot. Besides, Hongyun is supported. The higher-ups will provide some funds to solve the problem of these two production lines. There's no need for you to jointly invest. And I will only transfer this 5% to one of you. This is my biggest concession. You can discuss it among yourselves."
As he said this, he stood up and raised his foot to leave.
Liu Songtao got anxious and grabbed him: "Xu Yang, don't refuse my toast and drink the penalty!"
His voice was quite loud, and many people at the exchange meeting looked over here.
Li Chi also noticed him, but after a while, he was tripped by an investor who suddenly came up and couldn't get away.
Liu Songtao then realized his loss of composure and awkwardly pulled Xu Yang back to the sofa.
"Mr. Xu, why are you doing this? You don't feel comfortable holding 20% of the shares, right?"
Seeing that the people on the sofa were staring at him, Xu Yang rolled his eyes and said, "Mr. Liu is right, but you know that Hongyun's internal confidentiality is very strict. With so many investors behind you as a co-investor, don't you have to sign a responsibility agreement with Hongyun?"
"It's not that I'm really reluctant, but I need to be careful about who to transfer these shares to. If something goes wrong, not only will you lose out, but my shares might be at risk too."
Liu Songtao's expression changed.
What Xu Yang said was absolutely right. Hongyun was one of the first to receive support. It was closely monitored from above, and Hongyun was responsible for every investment.
Zhang Zaihou's face darkened, and he decided to take the initiative. "Then transfer your 5% to me first. I can discuss the responsibility with Hongyun's senior management."
When he said this, some people were unhappy.
"Lao Zhang, it's not fair of you to do this. Didn't we agree at the beginning that we would share it all?"
Someone else looked at Xu Yang and said, "Mr. Xu, please transfer it to me. TG Records is my investment. I know you've been having some troubles recently, and I can help you solve this problem."
Liu Songtao panicked: "Everyone, calm down first. Although Hongyun is strict about confidentiality, what matters most is the strength of the investors. Don't be fooled by Xu Yang's words. He just wants us to lose our composure."
Xu Yang admitted without hesitation: "Yes, I planned to do so."
