The CEO's 100 Billion Bride: The Secret War of the Rich

In the early morning, the sun shone through the curtains into the bedroom. Su Wanwan opened her eyes and looked at the time. It was only half past five. Although significant progress had been made in yesterday's negotiations, she knew that she might face more challenges today.

Su Wanwan got up quietly, not wanting to wake up Huo Yanshen who was still sleeping, and went to the study to sort out the materials for today's negotiations. At this moment, her cell phone suddenly vibrated.

It was a message from Zhang Jiaying: "Wanwan, I just got the news that Far East Group seems to be very interested in your merger and acquisition case. Be careful, there may be trouble."

Su Wanwan frowned, she knew that Cheng Yuan behind the Far East Group had always been eyeing the Huo family. This news undoubtedly added variables to today's negotiations.

"Why did you get up so early?" Huo Yanshen's voice came from the door, interrupting Su Wanwan's thoughts.

Su Wanwan looked up and saw her husband leaning against the door frame with a gentle smile on his face. She told Huo Yanshen the news about Zhang Jiaying.

Huo Yanshen's expression turned serious. "It seems Cheng Yuan is still unwilling to give up. We must be extra careful."

Su Wanwan nodded, "That's right. Today's negotiations may be more difficult."

Huo Yanshen walked over and gently rubbed his wife's shoulders. "Don't worry, I'm here with you. We can handle this together."

Two hours later, negotiations began again in the meeting room of the Huo Group.

In addition to the Green Wing Technology team, there were several new faces at the negotiation table today. Su Wanwan noticed that two of them had particularly sharp eyes and had been observing her secretly.

“Good morning, everyone,” Su Wanwan said with a smile, “We reached a preliminary agreement yesterday. Today, we will have an in-depth discussion on some specific details.”

Just as she was about to continue, an unfamiliar voice interrupted her.

"Sorry, Mr. Su, before we start, I have a question for you."

Su Wanwan looked at the person who was speaking. It was a middle-aged man who had just joined today. There was a hint of provocation in his eyes.

"Please speak." Su Wanwan kept smiling.

"We have noticed that the Huo Group's recent financial situation does not seem to be very optimistic. I would like to know if you have enough funds to support this acquisition?"

The conference room suddenly became quiet, and everyone's eyes were focused on Su Wanwan.

Su Wanwan was shocked, but she remained calm on the surface. She knew that there was a mystery behind this question.

"Sir, who are you?" Su Wanwan asked neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"I'm Li Ming, the representative of Far East Capital," the middle-aged man introduced himself. "Some shareholders of Green Wing Technology have entrusted us to participate in this negotiation."

Su Wanwan and Huo Yanshen exchanged glances, and both realized that the situation was more complicated than expected.

"Mr. Li, thank you for your concern," Su Wanwan said slowly, "I think there may be some misunderstandings about the financial situation of the Huo Group. In fact, we not only have sufficient cash flow to support this acquisition, but also have sufficient funds reserved for future integration and development."

She paused, then continued, “However, since Mr. Li has mentioned this issue, I think it may be necessary to explain our financial planning in detail to everyone.”

Su Wanwan signaled to her assistant to distribute a document to everyone present.

“This is the financial plan we have specially formulated for this acquisition,” she explained, “which includes the source of funds, the installment plan, and the investment budget for the next three years. As you can see, we have not only prepared sufficient funds for the acquisition, but also reserved a large amount of investment for the subsequent development of Green Wing Technology.”

Everyone present began to read the document carefully. The conference room fell silent for a moment, with only the sound of turning pages.

Li Ming frowned as he read the documents. He didn't expect Su Wanwan to be so well prepared. But he soon raised a new question:

"Mr. Su, this plan looks great. However, considering the current market uncertainty, are you really confident that you can execute it?"

Su Wanwan had expected such doubts. She said calmly: "Mr. Li raised a good question. It is true that there are always uncertainties in the market. However, it is precisely because we see the huge potential of the new energy industry that we decided to carry out the merger and acquisition at this time."

She stood up, walked over to the projection screen, and pulled up a complex diagram.

“This is our forecast for the new energy market in the next five years. Although there may be fluctuations in the short term, the growth trend is obvious in the long run. The combination of Huo Group and Green Wing Technology will enable us to take a leading position in this rapidly developing market.”

Su Wanwan's explanation seemed to dispel some people's doubts, but Li Ming obviously didn't give up.

“So, if the market doesn’t perform as expected, what are your responses?” he asked.

At this time, Huo Yanshen spoke up: "Mr. Li, your question is very professional. In fact, we not only have a plan to deal with market fluctuations, but also set up a risk buffer fund. If you are interested, I can explain it to you in detail."

Li Ming was slightly stunned, as if he had not expected Huo Yanshen to intervene directly.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Su Wanwan cleverly changed the subject: "Ladies and gentlemen, I think we all agree that there are risks in any business decision. What is important is how to manage and control these risks. Now, I suggest that we get back to the point and discuss the specific integration plan after the merger and acquisition."

Her proposal was approved by most people, and the subsequent discussion became more specific and constructive.

However, just as the negotiation was about to end, Li Ming raised another important question:

"Mr. Su, we heard that Far East Group is also very interested in Green Wing Technology. The acquisition price they proposed is 20% higher than yours. What do you think about this?"

There was an uproar in the conference room. The representatives of Green Wing Technology were talking to each other, obviously very interested in this news.

Su Wanwan's heart sank. She knew this might be a conspiracy of the Far East Group. If the acquisition price was raised now, it would not only affect the interests of the Huo Group, but also cause dissatisfaction among shareholders. But if she did not respond, she might lose the opportunity for this merger.

Just as everyone was staring at Su Wanwan, waiting for her response, she suddenly gave a mysterious smile.

"Mr. Li, thank you for providing this information. However, I have a question for you." Su Wanwan said slowly, "Far East Group is mainly involved in real estate and finance. Why are they suddenly interested in new energy?"

Li Ming was speechless for a moment, obviously not expecting Su Wanwan to ask this.

Su Wanwan continued, "Everyone, business mergers and acquisitions are not just about price. What's more important is the strategic fit and long-term development prospects. The Huo Group chose Green Wing Technology because we value their technical strength and innovation capabilities. We not only provide financial support, but also provide all-round support for Green Wing Technology's technology development and market expansion."

She turned to Wang He and said sincerely, "Mr. Wang, I believe you know better than anyone that technological innovation requires a long-term stable environment and continuous investment. Our Huo Group promises to give Green Wing Technology the greatest autonomy and resource support. This is something that the Far East Group cannot match."

Wang He nodded thoughtfully, obviously moved by Su Wanwan's words.

Seeing that the situation was beginning to turn in her favor, Su Wanwan pressed on: "Also, I want to remind everyone to pay attention to one thing. If Far East Group really bids 20% higher than us, then their motives are questionable. You know, an excessively high acquisition price often means aggressive profit pressure, which may affect the company's long-term development."

Her words obviously caused everyone present to think deeply. Li Ming wanted to refute, but found himself speechless.

Finally, it was Wang He who broke the silence: "Mr. Su is right. What Green Wing Technology needs is not only funds, but also a partner who can understand us and support our long-term development. I think Huo's Group is undoubtedly the best choice."

Other Green Wing Technology representatives also expressed their agreement. Li Ming's face turned ugly, and he obviously realized that his plan had failed.

After the negotiations, when everyone else left, Wang He stayed behind to talk privately with Su Wanwan.

"Wanwan," Wang He said sincerely, "your performance in today's negotiation has made me more convinced that choosing Huo's Group is the right decision. Not only do you have a business mind, but more importantly, you truly understand our needs and pursuits."

Su Wanwan smiled and said, "Wang He, we are not only business partners, but also like-minded friends. I believe that our cooperation will create amazing results."

After seeing Wang He off, Su Wanwan let out a long sigh and slumped down in a chair. Huo Yanshen came over and gently rubbed her shoulders.

"Thank you for your hard work," he said softly, "You did a great job today."

Su Wanwan looked up at her husband, her eyes full of gratitude, "Thanks to you for supporting me. If you hadn't intervened in time, I'm afraid we would have been in a passive position today."

Huo Yanshen smiled and said, "This is all due to your usual behavior. However, now that things have finally come to an end, you should take a good rest."

Su Wanwan shook her head. "Not yet. We still have a lot of follow-up work to do. We need to start the integration plan as soon as possible, and we also need to guard against Cheng Yuan's possible next move..."

Huo Yanshen held her shoulders and said, "We can talk about this tomorrow. Now, I order you to come home with me immediately, have a good meal, and then rest early. You have been fighting for several days in a row."

Looking at her husband's determined eyes, Su Wanwan finally compromised, "Okay, I'll listen to you."

On the way home, Su Wanwan leaned on Huo Yanshen's shoulder and recalled today's negotiations. She knew that the success of this merger and acquisition was not only a reflection of her personal ability, but also the result of the joint efforts of the entire team. At the same time, she also knew that this was just the beginning and there would be more challenges waiting for them in the future.
