After leaving Shuxiang Yayuan, Qin Fan behaved like a gentleman. Outside, he only held hands with Li Meng and hugged her waist, and never did anything excessive.
This eased Li Meng's nervousness quite a bit, and she mentally defended the Big Devil. This must be his normal side. The forced kiss they'd had when they first met was definitely for the mission, not his true intention...
After dinner, Qin Fan sent Li Meng home.
"I'm very pleased with how well-behaved you are now. I'm going to reward you. If you keep up the good behavior, I'll consider dating you seriously."
Before getting off the car, Li Meng took the initiative to kiss Qin Fan on the face and said playfully.
"One time is not enough, give it a few more times."
"You wish! I'm going home now. See you another day."
Seeing Qin Fan reaching out to hug her, Li Meng hurriedly got out of the car and walked quickly into the corridor.
Looking at Teacher Li's departing back, Qin Fan smiled.
Qin Fan didn't prepare any script at all for his strategy against Teacher Li. He just did whatever he wanted to do, and many of his actions were extremely disrespectful to Teacher Li.
If the other party didn't have a mission to complete, he would have gotten into trouble long ago, which would have led to many twists and turns in the process.
Fortunately, I made up a story and didn't let things get out of my control.
……
the other side.
After watching for a few days, Liu Cheng and Cheng Feng came to Hong Demin's house again for a second negotiation on the acquisition of shares.
"Uncle Hong, my dad asked me to tell you something. As long as you are willing to transfer your shares to Houtian Capital, my dad will push the board of directors to give you a pension of no less than 50 million."
Hong Demin was secretly delighted. He didn't expect that Old Cheng was so courageous that he would personally stand up for his son in order to support him.
"The shares can be transferred to Mr. Liu, but 800 million is still too low."
Liu Cheng and Cheng Feng looked at each other and saw anger in each other's eyes.
This old guy is so greedy. He gave him a 50 million pension for free, but he also bit the price so tightly, as if he had already made up his mind.
Liu Cheng asked, "What is Mr. Hong's target price?"
"Nine hundred million. It can't be lower than this price, otherwise I won't sell it."
In the past few days, Dade's stock price has rebounded slightly. The reason is that three forces are all buying at the bottom and grabbing chips, which has pushed up the stock price in a short period of time.
Based on the current stock price, the premium for acquiring Hong Demin’s shares for 900 million is not too high, but this stock price is only temporary.
Dade's condition is very bad. Cheng Shengen continues to recuperate in the hospital. Hong Demin has stepped down and Cheng Feng is in charge. After this wave of bottom-fishing, the stock price will continue to fall and may even fall below the previous low.
If Dade's stock price is to return to a high level, either Cheng Shengen needs to recover from his illness and come back to take charge of the work, or reforms must be carried out. No one has any illusions about Cheng Feng.
"Mr. Hong, we come here with sincerity, and we have met your requirements. I believe that many buyers have contacted you recently. We, Houtian Capital, are definitely the most sincere buyers."
Hong Demin did not deny this point. Among the buyers who contacted him, most of them were here to take advantage of the situation. Some even offered a ridiculously low price of 600 million, which almost made Hong Demin angry.
Cheng Feng then said, "Uncle Hong, even if Liang Junzheng offers you a satisfactory price, it will be difficult to fulfill his promise. As long as my father is still alive, you will definitely not get this pension without his signature."
Hong Demin naturally heard the threat in Cheng Feng's words, but he knew Liang Junzheng's ambition. He was not satisfied with being the second or third in command. He would definitely do anything to get the shares in his hands, so he did not take this threat seriously.
Continue to sit back and watch the two sides fight to the death for shares.
"I still say the same thing. Without 900 million, I won't sell my shares. Please go back."
"Uncle Hong, are you really not going to reconsider this?"
"I can tell you clearly that Liang Junzheng has already agreed to the price of 900 million. Unless you offer the same price, there is no room for negotiation."
……
"The old guy is so greedy, he really thinks I can't deal with him!"
After leaving Hong Demin's house, Cheng Feng was so angry that he kicked the tree next to him.
Liu Cheng also looked worried. "What do you think?"
Cheng Feng sneered, "Hong Demin is not the only one who holds Dade shares. We don't necessarily have to win him over."
"Do you mean buying out the shares held by other shareholders? Will those people sell?"
Cheng Feng shook his head. "The purpose of our acquisition of shares is to control the board of directors and prevent Liang Junzheng from holding too much equity and threatening the status of our Cheng family."
"Currently, my father holds 20% of the shares, I hold 5.5%, and those shareholders who have a good relationship with my father hold about 12% in total. This means that we directly and indirectly control 37.5% of the shares. As long as we can grab another 14%, we will have a firm control of the board of directors. No matter how much Liang Junzheng jumps around, he won't be able to change the situation."
Liu Cheng instantly understood what Cheng Feng meant. He did not plan to spend money to buy shares again, but wanted to persuade some shareholders to support him. As long as he indirectly controlled more than half of the shares, everything would be stable.
This method is indeed feasible, but the problem is that there is no acquired capital involved, and Liu Cheng will certainly not be satisfied.
"Since Young Master Cheng already has a plan in mind, then proceed as you wish. We at Houtian Capital intend to withdraw from this acquisition."
"Mr. Liu, please be patient. My idea is that once we control more than half of the shares, we can provide your Houtian Capital with a targeted financing of no less than 1 billion yuan. What do you think?"
Liu Cheng realized that this was Cheng Feng's idea, to use targeted financing to readjust the equity structure and dilute the shares held by Hong Demin and Liang Junzheng.
This idea should have been suggested by Cheng Shengen. The old fox is indeed quite insidious.
Although Cheng's father and son came up with the idea of diluting shares in order to retaliate against Hong Demin's greed, they did not dare to give too much. If Houtian Capital held too many shares, in case it had the intention of setting up its own camp, it would be like driving away a wolf and attracting a tiger, and they would be the ones who would suffer.
After discussion between the father and son, they gave a financing amount of 1 billion, which would make Hong Liang and his son feel uncomfortable, but would not allow Houtian Capital to grow too big.
Although the idea is good, Qin Fan has more cards in his hand, and acquired capital is just one of them.
"Then I'll wait for good news from Master Cheng."
……
After saying goodbye to Cheng Feng, Liu Cheng called Qin Fan and reported the situation.
492: Kill him while he’s ill!
After saying goodbye to Cheng Feng, Liu Cheng called Qin Fan and reported the situation.
After listening, Qin Fan said, "Interesting. It seems that the Cheng family father and son really want to break with Hong Liang and the others. Otherwise, they wouldn't come up with such a trick to cut off the source of the trouble."
"Mr. Qin, how should we respond?" Liu Cheng asked.
"The Cheng family is overthinking things and doesn't even ask me if I agree. If you hold off, I'll have someone leak the news to Liang Junzheng. His shares are about to be diluted, and he should be the one worrying."
Qin Fan keenly grasped this opportunity. If the Cheng family father and son really controlled more than half of the shares, Liang Junzheng would be completely doomed. He would either stand at attention and accept the reality of his shares being diluted, or sell off his shares and leave in disgrace.
Qin Fan felt that he could do something.
The next day at noon, Shi Xiaomeng invited Liang Junzheng to a restaurant near the company, and revealed the news to him in the private room.
Liang Junzheng was trembling all over, his eyes full of disbelief. "Where did you get this news? Is it reliable?"
Shi Xiaomeng knew he would ask this question. "The news was told to me by Mr. Qin from Dasheng Investment. He also said that Cheng Feng was secretly trying to win him over."
Liang Junzheng naturally knew about Dasheng Investment. The company previously held 6% of Dade’s shares. Later, Qin Fan purchased 1.5% from Cheng Feng, bringing Dasheng Investment’s shareholding to 7.5%.
This company behaved very low-key at the shareholders' meeting and always maintained a neutral attitude. Even though Dade Group has been in the spotlight recently, they did not say anything, as if their investment in Dade was merely financial and they had no desire to interfere at all.
If Shi Xiaomeng hadn't mentioned Qin Fan, Liang Junzheng would have almost forgotten that there was such a big Buddha among Dade's shareholders.
"Based on the shares held by the Cheng family father and son, if they get the support of Dasheng Investment, their share will reach around 45%. They only need to win over one or two more shareholders to firmly control the board of directors. By then, we will both be finished..."
As he spoke, cold sweat broke out on Liang Junzheng's forehead.
While he was still trying to convince his old friend, the Cheng family father and son had already started to set him on fire!
Damn, this father and son are so cruel, they want to kill me all!
Shi Xiaomeng's acting skills have always been on point, and he looks frightened at this moment.
"Uncle Liang, do you have any solution?"
"Are you familiar with Mr. Qin from Dasheng Investment?" Liang Junzheng suddenly asked.
Shi Xiaomeng laughed bitterly and said self-deprecatingly, "How could a nobody like me possibly have a relationship with Mr. Qin? One of his lovers is an old classmate of mine. When I was still working at Hu's Advertising, I asked my old classmate to whisper in his ear and I got an advertising bill for a Western restaurant under Mr. Qin's control."
Liang Junzheng understood, "Did your old classmate also tell you about Old Cheng's attempt to win over President Qin?"
Shi Xiaomeng shook his head. "Boss Qin told me this news personally. I'm actually quite puzzled. Boss Qin has never contacted me before, but this time he called me using an old classmate's phone. Uncle Liang, what do you think is going on here?"
Liang Junzheng's eyes lit up and he quickly figured out what was going on.
"It seems that Mr. Qin is not as peaceful as he seems!"
"What did Uncle Liang see?"
"President Qin contacted you personally. On the surface, he was leaking information to us, but in fact, he was implicitly telling me that as long as I could offer enough leverage, he would support me."
"It seems that President Qin is trying to hedge his bets. He is negotiating with Cheng Feng while testing your attitude."
Shi Xiaomeng suddenly realized, and then scratched his head again.
"Uncle Liang, to be frank, Mr. Qin's wealth is equivalent to that of several Dade Groups. It may be very difficult to win him over."
Liang Junzheng was also very troubled. After thinking hard for a long time, he couldn't come up with a good solution. He could only ask Shi Xiaomeng again, "Did President Qin tell you what method Cheng Feng used to win him over?"
"I'm not sure about this." Shi Xiaomeng took out his phone, "I'll try asking my old classmates."
"Ask quickly, ask now. This matter is very important. We must find out what bargaining chips Cheng Feng has in his hands so that we can make targeted deployments."
Liang Junzheng had no idea that Shi Xiaomeng was Qin Fan's man, and all this was a trap set by Qin Fan.
After the call was connected, Yang Zixi's soft, baby voice rang out, "Xiao Meng, what do you want to talk to me about?"
"Xiao Xi, I want to ask you something. Do you know what President Qin and Cheng Feng talked about when they met that day?"
"Didn't my husband tell you about it? Cheng Feng wants to win him over."
"I know that. What I want to ask is, what exactly did Cheng Feng use to win over President Qin?"
"Oh, you're asking about that. It's about the two Dade Hotels. Cheng Feng said that as long as my husband is willing to support him, they will split the two Dade Hotels and sell them to Mengqi Hotel Group at a low price."
"Apart from the two Dade hotels, are there any others?"
"In addition to transferring the hotel, they also promised targeted financing. Cheng Feng said that as long as he controlled the board of directors, he would let my husband continue to increase his stake to around 10%. Xiao Meng, why are you suddenly concerned about this?"
Shi Xiaomeng laughed heartily. "I'm a senior executive at Dade now. How can I not care about the changes in my company's shares? If I react too late and stand on the wrong side, I'll be buried directly."
Yang Zixi covered her mouth and chuckled. "Look at how timid you are. It's just a manager position, but you're treating it like a treasure. Even if someone wants to kick you out, they have to ask me for permission first."
"Xiao Mengzi, be good and call me Sister Xi. From now on, Sister Xi will protect you and no one can touch you."
Shi Xiaomeng took advantage of the situation and said, "Sister Xi, I will follow you from now on."
"Well, that's good! I'll talk to my husband later and ask his people to support you on the board of directors."
Shi Xiaomeng chatted for a few words and was about to hang up when he suddenly saw Liang Junzheng's gesture. He reacted and said to Yang Zixi, "Sister Xi, I have a friend who wants to meet Mr. Qin. Can you help arrange a time?"
"Your friend? Who?"
Shi Xiaomeng glanced at Liang Junzheng, and when he nodded, he said, "It's Mr. Liang from our Dade. He wants to meet Mr. Qin. Do you think it's convenient?"
"Okay, I'll tell Qin Fan when he comes back."
"Thank you so much, you are my real sister! No! My real sister is not as nice to me as you!"
"You have such a sweet mouth! I don't know how you managed to make Shen Bing angry..."
Shi Xiaomeng looked embarrassed, stammered a few words, and found an excuse to hang up the phone.
Liang Junzheng's face was full of emotion. It seemed that his move to win over Shi Xiaomeng was the right one. He didn't expect that in his most critical moment, he would have to rely on Shi Xiaomeng's connections to turn the situation around.
"Xiao Meng, why didn't you tell Uncle Liang earlier about your old classmate relationship? We should have gotten to know Mr. Qin sooner."
"Uncle Liang, it's not that I'm hiding this on purpose. After all, my old classmate isn't Mr. Qin's girlfriend, so it's hard to say how much influence she has on him."
Liang Junzheng also understood Shi Xiaomeng's difficulties. He just complained casually and didn't really blame him.
"Uncle Liang, the situation is now almost clear. Cheng Feng's offer is really high. We may not be able to offer anything more to win over President Qin."
Shi Xiaomeng calmly tested Liang Junzheng's thoughts.
Liang Junzheng laughed disdainfully. "Cheng Feng's offer is indeed quite high, but whether it's selling the Dade Hotel or providing targeted financing to Dasheng Investment, it's all about trading Dade's interests. Do you think the other shareholders will be willing to accept this?"
"You mean, we spread this news and get other shareholders to oppose Cheng Feng?"
"Not only do we need to spread the news, we also need to win over President Qin. The shares in Hong Demin's hands are my bargaining chips."
Liang Junzheng felt that it was worthwhile to trade other people's shares to win over a powerful partner.
"But, Mr. Hong is asking for 900 million. I don't think Mr. Qin will agree to it, right?"
Liang Junzheng sneered, "When Old Hong knew that the Cheng family father and son were planning to dilute his shares, what would he use to raise the price? Old Hong's previous stability was due to the competitive relationship between me and Cheng Feng. Now the situation has changed, and Old Hong no longer has the right to bargain."
