Chapter 141 Acquisition! (For the Fat Chicken Big Brother Baiyin League 4/10)
Pei Qian thought about it and asked, "This is also my first time acquiring a company. Are there anything I should pay attention to?"
Assistant Xin flipped through a small book: "There are still many risks. For example, similar companies often have problems with registered capital. We need to check whether there are false investments and capital evasion."
"In addition, there are the company's assets, liabilities, owners' equity, etc., such as the depreciation amount of fixed assets, amortization of intangible assets, and the situation of non-recoverable assets..."
"However, this company is also a small private company. The boss is called Du Rujie, and he and another partner hold all the shares. In fact, the company is mainly run by Du Rujie."
"I guess he should be eager to sell now. After all, the company has completely turned into negative equity and is losing money every month. By then, if the price is slightly suppressed, he should be able to get it for hundreds of thousands."
"If you're patient, you might be able to get even lower."
Pei Qian was stunned: "So cheap?"
This made Pei Qian a little disappointed.
I thought I had to sell it for one or two million, but it turned out that I could get it for hundreds of thousands?
Assistant Xin nodded: "Of course, Mr. Pei, this company should have been originally funded by Du Ruijie and another partner. They only invested 1 million in total. But later on, because of good luck, the games they made were more or less...
I made money and that’s why it developed to its current scale.”
"Du Ruijie himself has already made a lot of money. If he can make hundreds of thousands more by selling this mess, he already wants it. How can he dare to raise the price?"
"If no one takes over, all the company's assets will be sold at a low price. It is said that Du Ruijie even plans to let employees take their office computers back to deduct their wages."
Pei Qian: "..."
Very imaginative!
On the one hand, it saves the need to sell a large number of office computers second-hand, and on the other hand, it solves the problem of employee salary arrears. This Mr. Du is really a little genius!
Pei Qian did not intend to raise the price anymore. On the one hand, such a forced price increase was a bit too fake. If the acquisition could be obtained for hundreds of thousands, but it had to be raised to millions, it would be a bit too obvious and easily arouse suspicion.
On the other hand, Pei Qian now wants to concentrate funds to open a few more Moyu Internet cafes, and does not have that much liquidity on hand.
So, just pay the normal price.
Assistant Xin briefly talked about other matters, such as checking changes in shareholders, checking the company's accounting records, collecting employee labor contracts and insurance, salary details, and finding a notary to notarize relevant information...
Pei Qian doesn't have to worry about these.
Anyway, he is only responsible for spending money, and professionals will naturally handle these trivial matters.
Assistant Xin closed the book: "That's pretty much what I need to pay attention to. Mr. Pei, do you want to have a 'private visit' in private?"
Pei Qian was stunned: "What's the private interview in private?"
"If you have negotiated an acquisition with Mr. Du over there, Mr. Du will definitely make careful preparations when you go to inspect, which will not be conducive to seeing the true situation of Yangyang Games." Assistant Xin explained, "Don't reveal yourself first.
I need to go there and see the working status of the employees and some conditions in the office area. This will help us lower the price at the negotiation table."
Pei Qian understood. This was the same as a surprise inspection by superior leaders.
If the other party knew about it in advance, they would definitely have to do a lot of face-saving work and they would not be able to see the real situation.
Pei Qian shook his head: "It's not necessary. It's just a little face-saving project. Some things can't be disguised no matter how hard you disguise them."
Seeing Mr. Pei looking so confident, he probably already has this company under his belt.
Assistant Xin stopped asking any more questions: "Well, Mr. Pei, I will contact you right away and arrange for you to meet with Mr. Du."
Pei Qian nodded: "The sooner the better!"
…
The next morning.
Pei Qian came to the downstairs of Yangyang Game.
As soon as he opened the door of the Cayenne, a man who looked to be less than thirty years old and wearing glasses from downstairs immediately came up to him.
"Mr. Pei? Hello! I am Wang Xiaobin, the chief planner of Yangyang Games. Our Mr. Du is waiting for you upstairs."
Wang Xiaobin is very enthusiastic.
But Pei Qian was a little surprised: "Isn't your chief planner Lao Liu?"
Although he didn't know much about the situation of Yangyang Games, he knew the chief planner Lao Liu very well and was considered an old acquaintance.
Pei Qian had met Lao Liu once before when he came to Tengda for an interview, and later heard about it from Huang Sibo and Ma Yiqun.
Later, when he heard about Lao Liu's many deeds, Pei Qian always felt it was a pity.
During the initial interview, I really missed a talent!
If I had recruited Lao Liu, I might have screwed up the game long ago. Do I still have to work so hard to lose money?
Fortunately, it's not too late to make amends.
This time Pei Qian came here hoping to retain all the original members of the entire Yangyang Game team, and as the main planner, Lao Liu was obviously an indispensable member of this group.
Why did it happen that the person who came to pick me up today was not Old Liu, but an unknown person?
Wang Xiaobin was a little embarrassed: "I didn't expect Mr. Pei to have a very detailed understanding of our company. I will explain this to you later, so please go in first."
With suspicion, Pei Qian and Wang Xiaobin entered the office building and went to the Yangyang Game on the second floor.
First, we passed by the office area.
The densely packed workstations made Pei Qian a little uncomfortable.
After getting used to Tengda's spacious workstation layout, I always feel aggrieved when I look at this crowded workstation.
The overall environment is very good, the floor is clean, the desktops are tidy, and the employees are sitting in front of the computer, typing on the keyboard, or using the editor, and they all seem to be working seriously.
Pei Qian knew very well that this was obviously a disguised state before the surprise inspection.
If you look carefully, you will find that most people are not working at all, they are just pretending.
After many people opened their documents, they couldn't write a few words for a long time. They were just reading, and they didn't know where they were wandering around.
Pei Qian didn't know how to tell the truth, so he and Assistant Xin followed Wang Xiaobin and walked inside to the office of Du Ruijie, the boss of Yangyang Games.
Du Ruijie was already waiting at the door of the office.
This Mr. Du looks less than forty years old, with thinning hair and no fat figure. He looks like a successful middle-aged man and looks quite shrewd.
"Mr. Pei!"
"Welcome, welcome. I have long heard that Mr. Pei is very promising at a young age. Today I saw that he is indeed well-deserved."
Du Ruijie came up and welcomed Pei Qian and Assistant Xin to the office. Wang Xiaobin hurriedly went to make tea.
Logically speaking, this should be the work of assistants or administrators, but it is obvious that Yangyang Games does not have administrative positions at all, so these tasks can only be done by employees.
In fact, this is the norm for most small game companies. After all, raising an administrative staff also requires a salary. When the company's scale does not reach a certain level, this cost can be saved as much as possible.
Like Pei Qian, recruiting two beautiful receptionists before the game is finished is not something that ordinary people can do.
Soon, Wang Xiaobin brought the tea.
Pei Qian glanced at it and figured it wasn't good tea, so he just took it and took a symbolic sip, then put it down.
"Xiaobin, please sit down too. When President Pei asks about the game, you can answer it." Du Rujie motioned to Wang Xiaobin to sit down next to him.
Obviously, Mr. Du is only responsible for collecting money and doesn’t know much about his own games.
He heard that Mr. Pei was not only the boss, but also a very powerful designer. He was afraid that Mr. Pei might ask about something about games that he didn't know, so he asked Wang Xiaobin to cover him.
Wang Xiaobin couldn't help but feel a little uneasy when he thought that all the hope for the company's survival was pinned on himself.
