Go back to 1990 to start a business

In the president's office, five people sat around the coffee table and started a formal meeting.

Stoker smoothed his brown hair and said enthusiastically:

"Xia Chuan, I believe that you are purchasing optical lenses because you are preparing to invest in the entire industry chain. In the current lithography machine industry, Canon and the like are group companies, and lithography machines only account for a small part, so acquisitions are basically impossible.

Therefore, our ASML will be your best investment choice, we only make photolithography machines!

Only by focusing can we make the best products!

Our company has been independent from Philips' lithography machine department since 84. The original founder's total investment exceeded US$6000 million.

Of course, now that the founder has withdrawn and the equity has been sold to the entire R&D team, the two of us hold the largest shareholding. It can be said that we have full agency for equity matters.The decision made by the two of us is the decision of the entire R&D team. "

At this time, Ai Shimei'er is not a listed company yet.

Xia Chuan was filled with emotion. He never thought about the most awesome company in history and couldn't wait for him to acquire it.

The girl who grew up in love is the only monopoly company in the world, and no one dares to say no.

A company as powerful as Microsoft could not escape monopoly accusations and was almost split up.

But when it comes to the girl he loves to death, the American boss can't do anything.

You say I have a monopoly?I'll give you the global market, okay if I don't sell it?

Then it can be expected that all the chip manufacturing giants, including the world-famous Intel, TSMC, and Samsung, will all rush over: Dad, please continue to sell, please, what?Lack of R&D funding?You told me earlier, would one billion dollars be enough?

When an enterprise reaches this level, it reaches its peak.

Whoever wants to pick up the goods first must sponsor R&D, and whoever sponsors R&D will be given priority to pick up the goods.

This is not blackmail, it is robbery with open fire.

You may ask why not produce more?It’s not okay to produce too much, it would be so tiring.

It's a pity that even Shiyun is a little doubtful about the girl who loves her so much now. Is this okay?

Xia Chuan asked calmly: "How much did the founder sell you the equity?"

Stocker blurted out: "Thirty-six million dollars."

Antoinette Aris moved her lips. Her instinct was that she must not lie to Xia Chuan, otherwise the gains would outweigh the losses, because as long as the company was acquired, this lie would be exposed sooner or later.

Xia Chuan glanced at Aris with an incomprehensible gaze and said with a smile: "This is a double agreement."

A double agreement is a light and dark agreement. The public purchase price is different from the real purchase price. Xia Chuan has seen too much in his previous life.

Stoker choked slightly and sweat started to form on his back. This must be so awesome.

Antoinette Aris has already spoken:

"That's right. The real acquisition price is US$400 million. Because we all have no money, the founder is helpless. He is eager to exit, but this does not mean that our company is worth US$400 million."

Shiyun gasped, invested 6000 million US dollars, but sold it to the R&D team for 400 million?

High-tech companies are terrible. The money invested in them will be wasted as long as it does not produce results.

A $6000 million house was built, and the company went bankrupt and the house was still there, but there was nothing.

Xia Chuan still asked calmly: "Ms. Aris, what do you think?"

Stoker's heart sank. Xia Chuan was so keen that he could see at a glance that the two people had different opinions.

Aris looked serious, even a little tragic:

"I don't think we have the ability to support the continuation of research and development. Stopping investment will mean wasting all our efforts and going completely bankrupt. So I hope you invest, and I also believe you can lead us to success."

She made no secret of the fact that Xia Chuan would go bankrupt if he didn't invest. Her instinct told her not to lie to Xia Chuan. That would be deceiving Xia Chuan, and Xia Chuan knew better than anyone else.

Stocker followed closely and said: "I hope you can acquire our equity."

"Oh," Xia Chuan asked calmly, "How much do you want to buy it for?"

Antoinette Ariston was anxious, "I don't agree with the total takeover!"

Shiyun was immediately stunned. This guy was taking advantage of the situation before he even made a bid.

Stock suddenly looked ugly. If there were differences of opinion, it would be difficult to negotiate the price. There was no way to blackmail Xia Chuan into paying a high price.

What's the use if you don't sell it? Xia Chuan invested in it, but someone else controlled it and then kicked you out.

He said dejectedly: "I hold 20.00% of the shares and I am willing to withdraw, but I want US$160 million. After acquiring my equity, you will be the major shareholder."

This is based on a valuation of US$800 million, which is equivalent to doubling the profit, but it is far from the original expected valuation of US$3600 million.

Shiyun simply suspected that he had heard it wrong. This was really ridiculous. With 160 million U.S. dollars, he could take control of Xia Chuan's beloved girl who had spent [-] million U.S. dollars to choke her?

Could my brother be wrong?So who is wrong?

Xia Chuan said leisurely: "I agree, Shiyun should sign an agreement with him."

Stoke was stunned for a moment and transferred it to Zuo Shiyun?

Antoinette Aris's eyes darkened, and Xia Chuan gave up investing.

Stoker secretly thought that it had to be sold. He took out the contract text and quickly signed an equity transfer agreement with Zuo Shiyun.

Then Shiyun directly wrote a check from a French bank to Stoker.

Both parties sign and fingerprint, and the agreement becomes effective.

Xia Chuan then asked: "Who else wants to sell? Let's call them together."

Stoker shrugged, and Antoinette Aris said firmly: "No more."

Xia Chuan looked at her deeply, and then said: "Okay. Stock, I officially announce that you have been dismissed, and Antoinette Aris will now be the president. What do you two think?"

Antoinette Ariston suddenly smiled and said: "I have no objection."

She suddenly realized that Zuo Shiyun was just a cover.

Stoker's expression changed and he said helplessly: "Of course I have no right to object, but I want to know, what are you going to do next?"

Xia Chuan smiled leisurely and said: "Antoinette Aris, I gave ASML a valuation of US$6000 million. Yike Group invested US$4000 million, accounting for 94% of the shares. Do you agree?"

Stoke and Aris' eyes widened at the same time.

Then, Stoker's face slowly turned pale, as if a piece of flesh had been cut out of his heart.

Without even thinking about it, Xia Chuan’s investment of one billion U.S. dollars was absolutely approved. For such a company on the verge of bankruptcy, if someone invested a billion U.S. dollars in it, He Lan Zhengfu would not be able to stop it even if his head was wet, unless the U.S. government threatened him forcefully.

"I agree! All shareholders agree!" Antoinette Aris almost flew up with excitement, feeling like her whole body was going to explode. She never expected that Xia Chuan would give a valuation of 6000 million, let alone , Xia Chuan actually invested close to one billion US dollars!

What is this concept?

Her equity increased fifteenfold in the blink of an eye, and she became the president of a billion-dollar company!

High technology means burning money. If you have money to support it, then the previous investment will be valuable. If you can't support it and produce results, then the previous investment will be in vain.

Therefore, Xia Chuan’s valuation is not a loss. The R&D team must be rewarded. How can creativity be stimulated without heavy rewards?

Aris excitedly took out the text of the contract and was about to write it when Stoke suddenly said: "Xia Chuan, you are conveying interests. You have harmed the interests of Yike Group shareholders. In order to save you trouble, our equity transfer agreement Void it."

He pushed the check to Zuo Shiyun again.

That's right, let Zuo Shiyun buy 800% of the equity for 20.00 million US dollars, and then give a valuation of 6000 million. This is Chi Guoguo's benefit transfer.

This is not a left-handed thing but a right-handed one. Xia Chuan only holds 60.00% of the equity in Yike Group.

If this were in a certain country, it would be a normal operation. Major shareholders make money by cheating small shareholders and listed companies. Otherwise, all listed companies are half-dead. Why did Chundu Ham Sausage die?

But this is not possible in a legal country.
