Shenhao starts from the lottery of 1 million

Today's Penguin is far from as powerful as it will be in the future. The market value in 2008 was just over 2007 billion U.S. dollars, more than billion Hong Kong dollars, a decrease of to billion U.S. dollars from .

If there are investors willing to increase capital at this time, it will be very effective in boosting Penguin's development confidence, increasing its stock price, and improving the confidence of shareholders. I believe Penguin will not refuse.

In addition to increasing capital and expanding shares, stocks held by shareholders can also be acquired from shareholders.

What Yi Anguo covets most is the Penguin shares held by the South African newspaper industry.

If it can be acquired, it would be best. If it cannot be acquired, then dilute it and spend 10 billion US dollars to severely dilute the shares of the South African Daily.

In fact, to put it bluntly, even if Zhou Mengdie was sent to explore the way, Yi Anguo had no hope that Zhou Mengdie would be able to negotiate any results.

Zhou Mengdie didn’t know! She just wants to complete what her boss ordered and perform well in front of her boss, so that her boss will not underestimate her and that she is also someone who can help her boss do big things.

Zhou Mengdie successfully entered Penguin's office building and met Penguin's CEO Ma HuaTian.

"Brother Ma! I haven't seen you for a long time. Why are you still so handsome?" Zhou Mengdie said with a happy smile after seeing Ma HuaTian.

"Mengdie! Long time no see, you are getting more and more beautiful!"

On Ma Hua’s painful face, there was no longer the usual sternness when facing subordinates, nor the seriousness when meeting with partners. Instead, there was only the intimacy of the big brother next door when meeting the little sister next door.

It turns out that Ma Hua Tong and Zhou Meng Die's family used to be neighbors. At that time, Ma Hua Tong had just moved to Shenzhen Town with her father. When she was thirteen or fourteen years old, Zhou Meng Die was even younger at that time, only two or three years old.

Ma Hua's father and Zhou Mengdie's father work in the same state-owned company, and they are both colleagues and supervisors.

When Zhou Mengdie was a child, she liked Ma Hua Tong, her elder brother, and Ma Hua Tong also liked Zhou Meng Die, her neighbor's little sister, and would take her to play with her when she was free.

Until later, Mahuatou's family moved away, and the two families moved around less, but they still kept in touch. After all, they were still fellow villagers!

"You graduated from college and didn't want to work in a shipping company. You didn't come to see me, so you just found a company to work. Do you not want to trouble me, or are you afraid that I won't be able to give you a good job?" Ma Hua Tong said slightly reproachfully. said.

"No, I just want to make a career on my own. I don't want to be under everyone's protection. I've grown up now! Of course I have to learn to be independent?" Zhou Mengdie said with an embarrassed smile.

"You! Forget it! I won't talk about the past, but you suddenly came to me today. Is there something wrong?" Ma Hua asked.

"Yes! I am working in a private investment company now. I am the boss's personal assistant. On behalf of my boss, I am here to discuss investment matters with you." Zhou Mengdie immediately said seriously.

"Brother Ma! Is your company still willing to accept investment now?"

"Private investment company! Are they the investors behind Jingjing Online Supermarket and Huaxing Technology Company?" Mahuatong thought for a while and asked.

"Yes, our boss is very powerful. Our boss is very optimistic about the development prospects of Penguin Company, so he sent me to come to you on behalf of the boss to discuss investing in Penguin Company." Zhou Mengdie nodded and said.

"We at Penguin Company actually don't need investment now. Of course, if your boss's private investment company comes to negotiate, I will definitely give you face. How much does your boss plan to invest?" Ma Hua Tong said slyly.

Business is business, and he never confuses business with feelings. In personal relationships, he can regard Zhou Mengdie as the girl next door, but in the mall, he will only regard Zhou Mengdie as a business partner or competitor.

"It depends on how many shares your company is willing to give up. Your Penguin Company is a listed company, and its current market value is over 10 billion US dollars. How many billions of dollars our boss is willing to invest depends on how many shares you are willing to give up?" Zhou Mengdie Said cautiously.

Zhou Mengdie didn't go to college for nothing, and he didn't become a top student for nothing. He still knew some negotiation skills.

Mahuatong said with a bit of a headache: "Although our company's current market value is only more than 100 billion US dollars, that is because this year's economic situation is not good, and the current stock price cannot reflect the true value of our company."

"Furthermore, our company is in its initial growth stage and has great potential for future development, so the value of investment is huge."

"If your boss wants to use the current market value and stock price to invest in shares, it is a bit unrealistic."

"Well..., since our boss is optimistic about Penguin's development prospects, we can accept an appropriate premium. So what premium do you think should be? How many shares are you willing to give up?" Zhou Mengdie asked.

"At a minimum premium of 50%, we can give up 10% of the shares. If you invest US$1.5 billion, we can let you hold 10% of the shares." Mahuatong said after pondering for a while.

"The premium is 50%, and US$1.5 billion can only account for 10% of the shares, Brother Ma! Are you sure you are serious?" Zhou Mengdie asked.

"Of course! I'm just giving you face. If it were anyone else, the price would be at least 100% higher." Ma Hua Tong said with certainty.

"Brother Ma! If the price increases by 100%, can we buy Penguin shares from the South African newspaper?" Zhou Mengdie asked.

"I'm afraid this won't work! The South African newspaper industry won't be so short-sighted. If the premium is 100%, I'm afraid it won't tempt them." Ma Hua Tong thought for a while and said.

"Then what price premium does Brother Ma think we should pay to impress the South African newspaper industry and make them willing to sell their shares of Penguin?" Zhou Mengdie asked again.

"How do I know this? If they don't want to reduce their holdings, you can't buy their shares even if you give them ten times the premium." Ma Hua Tong shook his head and said.

The South African newspaper industry is also a large company with a market value of tens of billions of dollars. Penguin has no problem with its development prospects and financial reports. It is equivalent to a golden chicken that can lay golden eggs. As long as the South African newspaper company is not stupid, it will not be at this time Reduce holdings of Penguin shares.

"Then if our company wants to invest US$100 billion, how much shares can we hold?" Zhou Mengdie thought for a while and asked.

"Girl, are you kidding, or are you serious?" Ma Hua's head started to swell from pain and she said depressedly.

Good guy, Penguin's market value is only 10 billion US dollars, but your company wants to invest 10 billion US dollars, and you asked me how much share I can hold. Are you serious about investing?

"Brother Ma, of course I am seriously discussing investment cooperation with you!" Zhou Mengdie said seriously.

"It's useless to be serious, we don't want to sell the company." Ma Huatai said simply.

"Brother Ma, if you refuse to accept investment from our company, our boss will be very unhappy. If our boss is unhappy, he may set up another company, a company exactly like Penguin Company, to compete with Penguin Company." Zhou Mengdie still said with a very serious look.

"In addition, our boss will short Penguin's stock price. Our boss holds a large amount of Penguin's stock. It is not difficult to short Penguin's stock price."
