In the quiet night, the brightly lit conference room was busy. Subordinates shuttled inside and outside the conference room, constantly asking for opinions, revising, and printing thick contracts.
Shen Nanpeng and Xiong Xiaoge will sign the contract later. Neither of them can leave until Bo Xujie's subordinates confirm and print out the loan contract and debt restructuring plan. Their assistants also Go get busy.
Transferring funds to external sources is a matter of two words for the two of them as the person in charge, but the company's internal processes also need to be followed.
Jing Gao himself definitely doesn't care about such trivial matters as the details of the contract text, so Zhang Li and Dugu Jing are helping to adjust the contract. Mingyuan Group has to issue a loan contract, and Tianjiao Capital also has to go through the process.
The loan of US$500 million is not just Jinggao's investment. It has been determined that Shen Nanpeng (Sequoia China) and Xiong Xiaoge (IDG) will each contribute US$50 million. Therefore, a document is also required to stipulate specific rights and obligations.
Zhang Li and Dugujing's assistant teams of about ten people each are currently working overtime in the offices of Zhongrun Company in the Bank of East Asia Building and the China World Trade Center Phase III in Beijing, busy with this matter.
On the contrary, Yao Shengming and accompanying Jiang Jingxiang were very relaxed.
He and Mr. Jing have already negotiated that they do not need to be involved in this loan matter. Changqing Group will not become a debt shareholder of Mingyuan Group. Instead, after Mr. Jing obtains control, it will sell the high-quality assets of Mingyuan Group to he.
What Evergreen Group has to pay is to find a loan from Phoenix Group at an interest rate of 8% to pay for the acquisition. This rate is 3 percentage points more than this year’s standard loan interest rate of 5%, which is where most of Phoenix Bank’s profits lie. .
At the same time, Evergreen Group needs to sell its automobile business to Mr. Jing and build a steel plant in Johor.
Therefore, Yao Shengming thought of proposing to bring in more capital so that the city could support their Mingyuan Group debt restructuring plan.
In fact, from a legal sense, Mingyuan Group's debt restructuring requires a joint vote by the group's shareholders and creditors.
But as the debate during this afternoon's confrontation said, now that the Mingyuan Group's debt crisis has broken out, in order to stabilize the overall situation, the so-called shareholders no longer have a voice. The landmark event of the loss of voice is: Mingyuan Group requested the city to intervene. .
So generally speaking, companies will not take this path unless they have to.
Just as Xu Xin of Capital Today criticized Jing Gao, he was too late to deal with Bo Xujie, so that the management of Mingyuan Group reported the debt problem first, and it is difficult to say that there was no arrangement by Zhou Mingyang.
Therefore, from a factual point of view, if the management of Mingyuan Group can find new funds to come in and the restructuring plan is approved by the city, the entire process will be completed.
As for the original shareholder Zhou Mingyang's family, how many shares are left by his friends and executives depends on Mr. Jing's thoughts.
The most critical step to complete the "annexation" is the city's approval. The city's approval must require them to coordinate the interests of all parties and present a stable and united situation.
Now some capital is not happy and wants more benefits, so they need to find more friends to suppress the battle.
So Yao Shengming made this suggestion.
"Okay, I'll make the arrangements." Jing Gaocha agreed, placed the tea cup containing the health tea in his hand on the dark red oval conference table, and picked up his mobile phone to make a call.
He was only willing to give Shen Nanpeng and Xiong Xiaoge each a quota of 50 million US dollars. Of course, this was because he had already thought about recruiting more people to make the restructuring plan more beautiful. He did not hesitate at this moment and directly dialed the number. My friend Li Yanhong’s phone number.
"Robin, what are you doing now? Are you busy?"
On the phone, Li Yanhong said with a smile: "I'm busy but I always have time to answer your call from Mr. Jing! I'm doing homework with my daughter."
Jing Gaodao: "I am working on a debt restructuring plan for Mingyuan Group here in Shanghai. Is Baidu interested in investing US$50 million with an annual return of 40%? I will guarantee and pay. If it is convenient for you, call Baidu. Employees from Shanghai Metropolis come to the Mingyuan Group Headquarters Building."
Li Yanhong has been paying attention to the affairs of Mingyuan Group. He and Zhou Mingyang have a good personal relationship. They can at least sit together and have a glass of wine. Regardless of how the 50 million US dollars is invested, when he heard that Jing Gao came to guarantee it, he felt in his heart There is a bottom.
After all, Mr. Jing has a good reputation in the world, and he is famous for spitting and nailing.
Li Yanhong took off her cooking apron, took the mobile phone from the hand of the beautiful woman beside her, and said cheerfully: "Okay, I'll ask Shen Ke, our senior vice president of Baidu, to come over."
Although he is friends with Jing Gao, he will definitely not tell Jing Gao what he is busy with. He just means that his time is tight and if something happens, he will keep it short.
Li Yanhong hung up the phone, picked up the phone and started making phone calls to arrange work.
…
…
Jing Gao finalized Baidu's 50 million US dollars, and then called Zhang Yimin in Po County. He finalized the matter in a few words, and Douy would send someone over. He would be in the conference room, with Bo Xujie and Zhou Ming next to him. Continued, Jiang Feng, as well as Shen Nanpeng, Xiong Xiaoge, it is not convenient to talk too deeply with Zhang Yimin.
Shen Nanpeng and Xiong Xiaoge looked at each other and got up together to go to the toilet outside the conference room.
Assistants and lawyers outside the conference room came and went, but kept quiet. The two went to the bathroom in the corner, but it was empty.
Shen Nanpeng couldn't help but sigh: "Hey, Lao Xiong, I also said that I would like to recommend a few friends to come and participate. Now it seems that there is no need at all. Mr. Jing's circle of friends is still very powerful!"
Xiong Xiaoge shook his head with a smile and sighed: "Who says it's not the case? With Baidu and Douy joining in, even if Tencent, Alibaba, Meituan, and Fosun all oppose it, the remaining pressure will not be that great! The two of us will This time it’s like picking up money! It’s from Mr. Xu and Mr. Zhang…, ugh!”
Shen Nanpeng sighed and said nothing.
How should I put it? The world is like this. Only after experiencing a severe beating can one realize how powerful Mr. Jing is and be willing to surrender. I still don’t know how this will end.
The two of them finished urinating, washed their hands, and came out to smoke in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the large living room. They imagined how high-spirited Zhou Mingyang was when he had this office to himself. Now things have changed, and this place has basically been occupied by Mr. Jing. nest.
…
Just as Shen Nanpeng and Xiong Xiaoge were smoking, expressing their emotions today, and waiting to sign, Jing Gao received a call from his friend Liu Qiangdong, "Haha, Mr. Jing, you are still in the Mingyuan Group Building. busy?"
Jing Gao leaned on the comfortable chair and said with a smile: "Yes. I'm calling people everywhere for help!"
He originally had the idea of bringing JD.com in, so he revealed the conversation.
But before he finished speaking, Liu Qiangdong took the initiative and asked: "Mr. Jing, what's going on?"
Jing Gao briefly explained the situation and said with a smile: "Mr. Liu, are you interested in investing $50 million?"
"Then why are you not interested? You must be." Liu Qiangdong said with a hearty smile: "I would also like to thank Mr. Jing for giving me this opportunity to participate."
"It's not that, it's mutual benefit. I also need you, Mr. Liu, to strengthen the momentum of my restructuring plan." Jing Gao smiled and took a sip of tea and said happily. He could tell that Liu Qiangdong seemed to be looking for him for something. .
And based on what happened this afternoon, he probably guessed what it was about.
