Chapter 14 (1/2)
The cautious old man asked to visit the high-tech company called by Liang Shicheng before he was willing to pay $3 billion.
This is a reasonable request, but it is something Liang Shicheng has been trying to avoid, because he doesn't have his own black technology company for the time being.
It is not so easy to get the money. We must find a suitable reason to respond to this request.
However, all this was expected by Liang Shicheng. On his way here, he had already figured out his coping strategy,
”To be honest, not now.
Because I don't represent our company, I represent the interests of the R & D department in the company. Including this negotiation, it is only the private idea of the R & D department, and the board of directors doesn't know... ”
Liang Shicheng was not confident in the reason he made up, but it was the only reasonable argument he could think of, so he was nervous.
However, when the translator briefly conveyed his meaning, the old man with white beard laughed, clapped his hands and said:
”That is to say, your R & D department concealed the R & D progress from the shareholders? Good, this style is very Intel. ”
Several representatives around coughed to remind the old man with white beard to pay attention to his identity and image.
It didn't seem to arouse the other party's suspicion. Liang Shicheng was relieved and continued to add:
”In short, I don't want you to go to our shareholders to discuss the acquisition after you know the company's information.
So in the email, I communicate with you anonymously.
This is our bottom line, that is, you can't make a savage acquisition. Don't try to find the registered name of the company through me.
If we really get there, we still have the last weapon, that is, listing. In this way, we will not be short of money, but it means that all the company's projects must be made public to the public, including synthetic diamond technology, and the situation will be irreparable at that time.
It's not the best choice for both of us.
In addition, as the negotiator of that company, in fact, I didn't work in that company, but was entrusted by my friends. Every word I said was arranged by them. I'm just a microphone. ”
In the process of interpreting this passage, the old man with white beard kept a mysterious smile and looked directly at Liang Shicheng with an oppressive temperament, which made him somewhat guilty.
Liang Shicheng doesn't know what the other party is thinking at the moment, but he can see the attribute values above each of them. However, relying on the current attribute values alone can only know their work efficiency and can't peep into their hearts.
He thought that if one day he could see other new attributes and judge each other's ideas, he would have more advantages in negotiation. Now he is a novice without any business experience.
In order not to show his foot, Liang Shicheng plans to lower the negotiation conditions and end the topic as soon as possible,
”Money can be paid in installments. What do you think?”
After a moment of silence, the old man with white beard put forward a new solution.
Although he is unwilling to pay US $3 billion at one time, it is acceptable to pay US $300 million every year. This year's money can be paid immediately. However, from next year, Liang Shicheng will have to disclose his company's information to De Beers and announce his new research projects to prove that the company focuses on new technologies, and with the change of prices in the future, Money can continue to rise in the future.
In the face of this new plan, Liang Shicheng resolutely accepted it.
In fact, as the head of the company, the old man with white beard had no doubt about Liang Shicheng's identity since he saw the sample of the original diamond.
