Chapter 140: 40% premium (1/2)
In order to avoid embarrassment, Li Chaoren found other topics and chatted with Xia Yu.
Without asking him to wait any longer, he heard the door closing sound from next door soon, and soon there was a knock on the door.
”Come in!” Xia Yu shouted.
Then Wang Qi opened the door and saw Li Chaoren who was watching him at a glance. He closed the door with his backhand and walked in, nodded towards Li Chaoren, and sat beside him under Xia Yu's sign.
”Li Sheng, let me introduce you. This is our manager Wang Qiwang of Jiuding Securities. He is shrewd and capable, and he is a rare talent!”
Xia Yu introduced Wang Qi to Li Chaoren. Hearing Xia Yu's words, Wang Qi cast a grateful look at Xia Yu, waved his hand in a little panic and quickly said, ”Don't dare, it's the boss who gave me love. I'm just an ordinary person. ”
”Li Sheng, nice to meet you!”
”Wang Sheng, happy meeting!”
When Wang Qi and Li Chaoren finished greeting, Xia Yu didn't procrastinate, and asked Wang Qi: ”Wang Qi, what did Simpson talk to you just now?”
Seeing that he had finally entered the topic, Li Chaoren was sitting awkwardly, looking at Wang Qi with a serious expression, waiting for his answer.
Wang Qi nodded respectfully and said: ”Just now Simpson wanted to buy 6% of the shares from us, raising prices again and again, and finally even willing to buy at a premium of 100%.”
Hearing this, Li Chaoren's eyes condensed, and he knew in his heart that the Keynes family did not own 49% of the shares. It should be 45%. Otherwise, they would not eagerly want to acquire another 6%, and the Keynes family was really cheating him.
It's just that he didn't expect the Keynes family to pay such a high price to buy shares in Xia Yu's hands.
Wang Qi didn’t care about the change in Li Chaoren’s expression. He paused and continued: “Later, I said that we are more inclined to package and sell. He hesitated. If I didn’t let go, he kept increasing the price, and finally increased to a premium of 30%. Seeing that I didn’t let go, he left. This is the specific situation.”
”Now I asked about the latest stock price when I came in. It is already 4.1 Hong Kong dollars per share.”
Xia Yu nodded to Wang Qi with satisfaction, then looked at Li Chaoren with a smile on his face, and whispered: ”Li Sheng, you also heard it. This is a condition of the Keynes family. We have not agreed to it for the time being.”
”Thank you!” Li Chaoren thanked Xia Yu with a grateful smile.
However, he was a little surprised in his heart, not sure whether Wang Qi was telling the truth or he had negotiated with Xia Yu, and whether the 30% premium condition was put forward by the Keynes family.
It's a pity that he can't ask the Keynes family for verification. Since Wang Qi reports like this, it doesn't have to be. Now it's time for him to bid, at a premium of 30%, and the acquisition of shares in Xia Yu's hands is basically a flat.
However, as long as the acquisition is completed, the value of 25% of the stocks in his hands can skyrocket. With the controlling rights, he can develop greater value in the future. Moreover, if the acquisition is successful, Cheung Kong's stock price can also make him pay back. Such a calculation is a big profit!
What's more, there is no way to evaluate the strategic significance!
It's just that the Keynes family offered a 30% premium, so he couldn't be lower, otherwise he would appear insincere. After all, Xia Yu gave him preferential treatment and also told him the key to the Keynes family.
Li Chaoren did not hesitate, and solemnly said to Xia Yu: ”Li Sheng, I am willing to pay a 40% premium to the stock price of 4.1 Hong Kong dollars and pay it all at once. I wonder if you are satisfied with this condition?”
For his own conditions, Li Chaoren still has a bottom line. After all, the premium is 40%, more than 10 million more than the Keynes family, and he is still paid in one lump sum. This is not a big deal. It can be said that he is also full of sincerity. Up.
Xia Yu gave him face, and he was not a person who didn't know how to promote him.
Seeing Li Chaoren's offer such a big deal, Xia Yu smiled and said in admiration, ”Li Sheng is magnificent, no wonder the business is doing so prosperously!”
Hearing Xia Yu's admiration, Li Chaoren's heart fell for a moment. Xia Yu's current attitude made him relieved, but he did not dare to be completely relieved until Xia Yu's final answer.
Xia Yu didn't let Li Chaoren wait too much, with a smile on his face stretched out his hand to Li Chaoren and said, ”Li Sheng, happy cooperation!”
