An Expert Is actually By My Side

Chapter 212 Follow the trend and cash out

It has to be said that Ma Youtian has a fairly accurate view of human nature.

In the first few days after the introduction of strategic investment, Zhang Tao felt a little sorry for his former partner. After all, with the capital injection of Sea-Lion Group, many mainstream evaluation agencies have given their valuation to 30 billion.

700 million bought out the shares valued at 15 billion, no matter how you look at it, it is a big loss.

However, it didn't take long for the feeling of regret to be replaced by envy.

That's 700 million!

Although there are tens of billions of funds on the book of Modern Bicycle, and with the promotion of Haishi Group, more new users register and pay deposits, and this number is still increasing, but it is the company's money after all, and it does not affect His bank card balance didn't even make up six figures.

What is the concept of seven hundred million?

You can buy a house by building, and if you store it in the bank, you are the father of the bank! Even if you don't do anything, just get a capital-guaranteed financial management with a comprehensive annualized interest rate of 5%, and you can eat and die for a lifetime.

Why did you start your own business?

Isn't it just for financial freedom?

As a result, the hitchhiking partner has achieved financial freedom ahead of schedule, but the founder himself is still taking the subway to and from get off work every day. Although he is not jealous of Mr. Hao who is kind to him, but Zhang Tao's heart is still somewhat unbalanced.

At this moment, he suddenly met a person.

The man claimed to be the secretary of the chairman of Youtian Network, and said that their chairman Ma Youtian wanted to have a meal with him. Although he didn't have much impression of the name Ma Youtian, Zhang Tao still went to the appointment with the idea of having multiple friends and multiple paths.

In a luxuriously decorated restaurant in the city center, he met the big boss who was said to be worth billions of dollars.

Haha, Mr. Zhang, it's a pleasure to meet you. I've wanted to know you for a long time! Now I didn't expect you to be so young. You are so young and promising!

Zhang Tao smiled modestly, reached out to shake hands with this President Ma and said.

Mr. Ma is too polite!

It's all from the bottom of my heart, there's no point in being polite, Ma Youtian smiled arrogantly, and said with a gesture of invitation, Please sit down, let's sit down and chat while eating.

Although there were only two people eating, there were more than a dozen dishes on the table, and each dish looked expensive. Although he is worth billions of dollars, Zhang Tao was just an ordinary college counselor a few months ago, and his temperament has not kept up.

Ma Youtian kept watching him secretly during the meal.

Thinking about the atmosphere and that the time was almost up, the local boss stopped the gag chat, brought the topic to the main topic, and said with a smile.

...Ming people don't talk dark words, the shared bicycles in Jiangcheng, besides your modern ones, are the biggest in Youtian!

I was thinking that we are all fellow villagers. There is no need to fight to the death on our own territory. Why not join hands and conquer foreign markets together!

Looking at Ma Youtian who was talking there, Zhang Tao was a little puzzled, wondering what kind of medicine this guy had in his stomach.

Although what he said was true, apart from Modern Bicycles, Youtian Bicycles are indeed the largest in Jiangcheng.

But the little yellow bike of Modern Bicycle has already accounted for 70% of the market share, and the so-called No. 2 in the industry is just the leader in the remaining 30% of the market share.

team up?

Is this a joke?

Can Bronze and King go together?

This statement may be a bit exaggerated, but this is the truth.

As if he guessed that Zhang Tao was not interested in the prospect he had painted, Ma Youtian stopped making circles, straightened his expression and continued.

I won't go around talking about those nonsensical things anymore. To be honest, I want to buy some shares of Modern Bicycle from you. It's easy to talk about the price. The price I can offer is definitely not better than Sea Lion Group offered Yunmeng Group a low price!

Very interesting proposal.

So much so that after hearing this sentence, Zhang Tao couldn't help smiling slightly.

Do you think I'm going to sell to a competitor?

Even if it's just a nominal competitor.

Even though Zhang Tao didn't take Youtian Bicycle seriously at all, it was another matter to put the other party on the board of directors of his company. Among other things, according to Xia Guo's law, as long as a company holds 1% of the shares, it can apply for an audit.

Letting competitors control the financial trends of their own companies is simply playing a joke on the interests of all shareholders.

Maybe someone doesn't care, but he can't do it.

Ma Youtian's expression remained unchanged, and he continued with a faint smile: I can hold shares in the name of a joint venture company, without joining your management and board of directors, just as an investor...to make a digression, the company's No matter how high the valuation is, it is still a valuation. The company is so big and has solved so many jobs, doesn't Mr. Zhang want to improve his life?

These words reached Zhang Tao's heart, so that he fell into silence.

I have to say that this proposal is indeed very attractive.

As long as you pay a little share, you can buy a car and a house, and live the life you dreamed of before. Especially with the example of Yunmeng Group right in front of him, it was difficult for him not to be tempted.

...I can sell only 5% of the shares, this is an agreement between me and the major shareholder, Zhang Tao, who had been silent for a long time, raised his head and said with a slight movement of his Adam's apple, Any more will have to be approved by the board of directors.

Although this number was lower than expected, Ma Youtian still gritted his teeth and continued without changing his expression.

What's your offer?

Two hundred million.

Two hundred million? !

Hearing this number, Ma Youtian almost popped his eyes, and said immediately.

Are you kidding me?! 200 million?! Do you know that a valuation is a valuation. Before you go public, this thing is just a number, and it can't be changed!

Zhang Tao stood up silently.

To be honest, he was hesitant to sell part of his shares to improve his life.

But he didn't expect this potential buyer to react so strongly after hearing his offer, and he obviously didn't seem to be able to give much money. The idea that just popped up in his mind not long ago was immediately dismissed. .

Seeing that Zhang Tao didn't intend to talk anymore, Ma Youtian stared and stretched out his hand.

100 million! If you agree to nod, we can sign the contract today, and I will pay you a 10 million deposit on the spot! Complete the industrial and commercial registration tomorrow, and the final payment will arrive immediately!

One hundred million!

And give a deposit of 10 million on the spot...

Zhang Tao obviously hesitated.

Squeezing his sweaty palm, he gritted his teeth and said.

150 million, this is my bottom line.

Ma Youtian said with his eyes widened.

Impossible! This offer is outrageous! Sea Lion Group bought 50% of Yunmeng Group's shares for 700 million yuan, and 5% is worth 70 million yuan! I paid a premium of 100 million yuan, don't you think? Am I already very sincere!

Zhang Tao refused to give an inch, and continued to speak persistently.

It is because of the Sea Lion Group that we can now get a valuation of 30 billion. If you say that, I think 150 million is still cheap.

One hundred and forty million!

Looking at Ma Youtian with red eyes, Zhang Tao was also fighting with heaven and man in his heart.

Your chance to become a billionaire is here!

And what he paid was only 5% of the shares...

After all, he still lost to the temptation of cash, he relaxed his shoulders, nodded, and said in a very soft voice.

make a deal.

Ma Youtian finally breathed a sigh of relief, his back was soaked in sweat unknowingly.

With a relaxed smile on his face, he stretched out his right hand.

Deal...the contract is ready, and it will be sent to you for review later.

Zhang Tao shook his hand.
