Pei Qian sat comfortably on the boss's chair in the office, listening to Eric, Meng Chang and others reporting to him on the progress of the acquisition of Zhitou Company on the transoceanic phone call.
Overall, it went pretty smoothly.
Since Dayak Group has decided to sell Zhidou Company, it sincerely wants to sell and get out quickly, so it naturally cooperates fully.
Dayak Group doesn't mind that Tenda Group wants to pay in installments. After all, the money will definitely not be less, and Tenda Group cannot default on its debts. And everyone knows that Tenda is a high-turnover model, so big
It is indeed unrealistic to spend all the money at once.
But for Zhidou Company, the situation is a bit more complicated.
The composition of some of the top management of Zhidou Company is relatively complex, so when faced with this matter, their reactions will naturally be different.
The first type is airborne from the Dayak Group. For example, Eric belonged to this category before. After that, he may leave Zhidou Company and return to the Dayak Group. The attitude of these people is different from that of Dayak.
It’s the same as a group, doing official business and just going through the motions;
The second type is senior executives like Chretien, who are designers or technicians. Their attitudes are more complicated and they are emotionally resistant, but since the boss has changed, they can only accept it;
The third type is senior executives like Charles who hold shares and have real power. They are very unwilling to accept this fact. They will definitely do everything possible to obstruct Tengda. They are unwilling to reduce themselves to vassals and hope to compete with Tengda.
Negotiate to maximize the autonomy of managing the company.
The Dayak Group has entered the process stage, but after the acquisition, how to absorb the Zhitou Company into the entire Tengda system is the most serious problem at present.
This four-person team now has two choices. One is to return to China. After all, they still hold various positions in Tenda Group and have many other things to deal with; the other is to go to the United States to take over and transform Zhitou Company.
Of course, anyone can do the takeover and transformation, and they can do it at any time. Even if they don't, it's okay to leave the company alone and let them continue to manage themselves.
The specific choice depends on how Pei Qian makes up his mind.
After listening to everyone's report, Pei Qian pondered for a moment and asked, "Charles is not very cooperative?"
Eric nodded: "Of course, this is expected."
"He was almost on the verge of becoming the real owner of Zhidou Company, and in a few years he was able to increase the value of his money hundreds of times by relying on the capital operation of Zhidou Company, but in the end he was intercepted by Tengda at the last step, especially
It was because he had tried every means to lower the price and finally got the better of Tengda, which was obviously unacceptable to him."
"Not only that, his power within the Zhitou Company has also declined. After all, although the Dayak Group also directed the Zhitou Company before, it basically only focused on the profitable part, some specific game design, and operational strategy matters. The Zhitou Company
The top management still has full autonomy."
"Now that Tengda Group has taken over, he has foreseen that we will inevitably take back his power in all aspects, and it is unlikely that he will continue to be the emperor of Zhidou Company. This will definitely make him very dissatisfied."
"What he is doing now is to join forces with other senior executives to find ways to make the senior management of Zhidou Company appear to be monolithic, strive for independent operating rights as much as possible, and refuse us to interfere too much."
"Not only that, he also wants to hold on to the shares in his hands and wait for the company's stock price to rise, making a huge fortune to make up for his previous losses."
Pei Qian couldn't help but chuckle.
Previous losses? Where did the previous losses come from?
Doesn’t Charles feel that he failed to successfully buy Zhidou Company and was intercepted by Tengda, which is a loss?
That's right, capital thinks so, money not earned is a loss.
It seems that there are still many die-hards within Zhidou Company. If another company takes over such a company, it will be really difficult.
Because the acquisition plans of other companies are definitely optimistic about the future of this company and hope that it will continue to make money for themselves.
Since we want it to continue to make money, we must give full respect and autonomy to the senior management of the original company, and we must not dictate or create unnecessary interference.
Otherwise, if you really force away the original senior executives who know the company's situation best, and parachute a group of people on your side, the final result will often be counterproductive, causing the company to go downhill faster, or even collapse.
Therefore, in order to allow the acquired company to continue to make money, they will usually take action immediately after the acquisition. They will appease these senior executives and tell them that you still have more power than you should have, and you will make more money. You continue to work hard.
, our cooperation is bright and the future is unlimited.
It is precisely for this reason that senior executives of acquired companies often unite to maintain their own power and status and demand the highest possible autonomy from the parent company.
This is a common game.
If the parent company feels that it will be unable to survive by getting rid of all these senior executives, then it will have to compromise and temporarily accept the conditions of these people, and then slowly adapt to them, and then gradually replace them when the conditions are mature.
But it's a pity that the people from Zhidou Company met Pei Qian.
Did Pei Qian buy Zhidou Company because it made money?
no.
After the acquisition, do you expect the company to continue to make money?
No hope.
Even if all these high-level officials are opened, will there be any harm to Pei Qian?
Not at all.
That being the case, why do these people think they are qualified to negotiate conditions?
Pei Qian thought for a while and then said: "In this way, the other three people come back, Eric, you can go to the company and take over as CEO."
"If these high-level officials are obedient, forget it and keep them. If they are disobedient and even join forces to sideline you, then fire them all!"
"I still have big things to do next, and I won't allow any opposition within the company."
"As for those like Charles who still hold shares..."
"Tell them to sell all their shares to Tengda now, and we can pay them at a 10% premium. If they don't sell, the stock price of Zhidou will plummet. Don't blame me for not notifying them in advance."
The four people on the other end of the phone were obviously a little surprised.
Will the stock price of Zhidou Company continue to plummet?
How is this possible?
You know, Charles has made troubles several times, causing players to complain. Currently, the stock price of Zhidou Company is at a historical low.
After learning that Zhidou Company acquired Tengda, the stock price immediately rose, but the extent of the increase was limited.
The rise was due to Tenda's decisive move, which restored the capital market's confidence in Zhitou Company: at least Tenda recognized the value of Zhitou Company.
In the MOBA game market, Tenda knows best. They all want to point to the company, which shows that this stock is at a low price.
The reason for the limited increase is that Tenda has not disclosed any follow-up measures against Zhitou Company.
Everyone is also speculating, is Tenda going to play against each other, turn decay into magic, and rebuild Zhidou Company into a giant? Or is it simply going to hide Zhidou Company in the snow and become a stepping stone for GOG?
The difference between these two possibilities is too great, so the capital market is still waiting for Tengda's signal and is unwilling to act rashly.
And in this case, Mr. Pei actually said that the company's shares would plummet?
Doesn’t this mean that your wealth is shrinking?
Finger Company just spent a billion dollars to buy it!
This move is truly unpredictable.
Among the four people, Meng Chang was particularly shocked, and even broke into a cold sweat.
Immediately, he felt a burst of joy.
Because according to his and Fan Xiaodong's original plan, they were to go short first and then go long. They believed that Charles would release negative news to lower the stock price of Zhidou Company to facilitate the transaction, but after Mr. Pei took action, the stock price of Zhidou Company would definitely increase.
Later, Meng Chang thought about it and decided to only make short-selling money. This later operation may involve insider trading, which has certain risks and may easily arouse Mr. Pei's resentment, so he gave up.
Now I find that giving up is the right thing to do!
If he didn't give up, then Mr. Pei would take action and cause the shares to plummet, and he and Fan Xiaodong would have to spit out everything they had earned before!
Pei is always the god of investment.
So, don’t speculate about God!
Anyone who thinks they have seen through Mr. Pei will eventually learn a harsh lesson.
Meng Chang couldn't help but be excited about his own wisdom, and felt lucky that he had escaped disaster.
But he still couldn't figure it out no matter what. Mr. Pei had just spent a lot of money to buy Zhidou Company. The first thing he did was to ruin his own business? Let his money shrink?
According to the brain circuit of ordinary companies, the first thing must be to release some good news to increase the stock price and make the capital market optimistic again!
Mr. Pei's courage is really not something ordinary people can possess.
Eric nodded: "Okay, Mr. Pei, I will tell him the truth."
Pei Qian added: "You will have to suffer a little during this period and stay with Zhidou Company for a while. I will have other things for you to do later. GOG operation matters will be left to other people in the GOG project team to help."
Just keep an eye on it."
"Contact me anytime if you have any questions."
Eric nodded: "Okay Mr. Pei!"
Now Eric's status in Zhidou Company is basically equivalent to that of the Supreme Emperor.
Eric was deeply moved to be so valued by Mr. Pei.
Although he was once an executive sent by the Dayak Group to Zhidou Company and became the head of the Greater China Region, he was still far behind compared to Charles.
After all, Charles is not only the CEO of Finger Company, but also has a good relationship with the top management of Dayak Group.
What now? Their positions are completely reversed.
All I can say is, this time and that time!
Although no one knows what earth-shattering event Mr. Pei is going to do, Mr. Pei must have thought carefully about everything he does.
