Manager Li was a little confused: "Mr. Pei, did I miss any process? Didn't we agree to discuss it in detail today? Our interests and demands have not been expressed yet. Should we fully communicate before making a decision?
"
Pei Qian was a little surprised: "Huh? Haven't you thought it through yet? I thought it was true that all the clubs on the Internet united to boycott the GPL league!"
Manager Li was a little dizzy.
It’s true, but we didn’t say we were going to sell the gog branch!
We are just doing that to give you some pressure from public opinion. Do you understand the pressure from public opinion?
In the end, it was a good idea for Mr. Pei, who simply acquiesced that all clubs should sell their gog branches?
This question made Manager Li unable to answer the question.
Manager Li and the others teamed up to create public opinion. In fact, they just wanted to increase their bargaining chips and let Mr. Pei see that no club was planning to take over, and put an end to Mr. Pei's desire to buy out the gog branches of all clubs.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Pei was not moved at all and directly pushed the topic to the most extreme direction.
Suddenly both parties have no room for negotiation!
So the ball came to the club again.
He said that he had no intention of selling the gog division, but just wanted to negotiate on an equal footing and obtain concessions on cooperation conditions?
No, isn't this tantamount to giving in? It's even more difficult for Mr. Pei to take control of!
But if you don't say that, wouldn't you have to raise your hands immediately and sell the gog branch?
Several club managers looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
When I wrote the script before, I didn't expect that things would develop like this. Mr. Pei didn't act according to the script, what about us?
Pei Qian saw that none of these club managers spoke, and he felt a little anxious.
What's going on?
Didn't we agree to sell the gog branch to me?
Why don't you speak anymore?
Buy it for me quickly, I can hold it in my hand and pay for it!
There was an awkward silence in the conference room. Pei Qian coughed twice and said, "Manager Li, your side seems to have the biggest reaction. Otherwise, why don't you make a statement first? Either sell or not, give me a happy word."
Manager Li's mouth twitched slightly.
Mr. Pei has directly brought himself to the forefront!
The key point is that he did organize this matter. If he said he would not sell it, then other clubs would not be stupid and would definitely not sell it either. Then wouldn't this matter end with Mr. Pei's overall victory? What else is there to talk about?
Talk?
But it would be unrealistic for Manager Li to directly sell the gog branch, because he does not have the power. In the final analysis, it is the boss who has the final say whether to sell the club or not.
What to do?
Manager Li's brain was spinning rapidly and he quickly came up with a solution.
He immediately put on a smiling expression, looked around at the other club managers, and then at Mr. Pei, acting calm and calm and having everything under control.
"Mr. Pei, first of all, let me make it clear that we are striving for continued cooperation based on an attitude of equal consultation. It has never been our desire to lose both sides."
"Moreover, even if it is to be sold, it cannot be a direct transaction between us and the official? In this case, our interests are not guaranteed."
"For example, if a third party bids higher than Tenda, then Tenda will buy our GoG division at a low price. This is unreasonable, right? Our interests will be lost."
"So I think we must first seek third-party transactions. The one with the highest price will get it, and it must exceed our psychological bottom line before we can decide to sell it."
Pei Qian's eyes lit up.
Exceed your psychological bottom line?
Does that mean you want to raise the price?
What a good thing!
Pei Qian nodded immediately: "No problem. In this way, you each tell your own psychological bottom line, and we will hold an auction and sell the entire GoG branch and GPL quota as a package."
"What is the psychological bottom line? You can speak freely. Zhang Yuan, please record it a little."
Zhang Yuan nodded and took out a pen and paper to make simple notes.
The other club managers looked at Manager Li and instantly understood what Manager Li was thinking.
The plan remains unchanged, we just entered the next stage ahead of schedule.
Everyone's idea before was to create public pressure first and let Mr. Pei retreat when he sees the difficulties. If Mr. Pei doesn't retreat, then pretend to sell the gog branch so that Mr. Pei can see clearly the fact that "no one will take over". When the time comes,
Mr. Pei will naturally give in.
Everyone has already agreed to raise the price by 20%. For example, if our gog branch is worth 5 million, then we will quote 6 million; if it is worth 10 million, we will quote 12 million.
Moreover, the original valuation itself was inflated, which included comprehensive considerations of player value, brand effect, etc.
Manager Li has been angry with other clubs in the past few days, and those clubs will not interfere.
So at this price, no one should take it.
At that time, Mr. Pei will either have to bite the bullet and buy all these GoG branches at a high price with his own money; or he will have no choice but to give in and negotiate cooperation with the club.
Moreover, Mr. Pei did not shoot in secret this time, but in the open.
These clubs have no real intention to sell their GoG division, so as long as one club raises its price, other clubs will also raise their prices accordingly, which will make the price even more inflated.
Manager Li smiled slightly: "For the Gog branch of Sug Club, our psychological bottom line price is 11 million."
Other club managers also stated their own quotations.
The highest ones are of course the h4 club and the ek club, which just won the championship and runner-up in the global invitational competition. The asking prices reached 13 million and 12.5 million respectively.
The prices quoted by each club are generally average.
This is also normal, because when Mr. Pei sold the players of the dge club, he originally distributed them evenly to each club.
Each club is close in strength and has similar operating costs, so naturally there won't be much of a gap in price.
Soon, all the clubs reported their expected prices, and each one increased the premium.
After all, the current GoG branch training bases of these clubs are all rented, and there are not many fixed assets. The most valuable thing is the players, and the player transfer fees are all on the table, which is not the case for Mr. Pei.
What a secret.
The e-sports industry has just started and is not that popular. Naturally, clubs cannot sell for too high a price.
The current price is already very high in the eyes of club managers.
Pei Qian frowned. He pondered for a moment and said, "Everyone, are you really not going to add more points?"
"Isn't it a bit of a loss to sell the gog branch for ten million?"
Pei Qian couldn't wait for these people to raise prices any more.
The more you raise the price, the more I can spend!
No one from the club managers answered the phone.
Because they don't quite understand whether Mr. Pei's words are ironic...
Is this because we sell it too expensively?
Are you being sarcastic on purpose?
But looking at Mr. Pei’s sincere expression, it doesn’t seem to be sarcastic?
Everyone was confused by "Mr. Pei's acting skills" and didn't know how to answer the question for a moment.
Manager Li couldn't help but feel a little proud when he saw Mr. Pei frowning and saying these words at the same time.
After seeing the specific quotation, can’t you accept it?
Mr. Pei's words are actually irony. On the surface, he is asking if the price should be more expensive, but in fact, he is dissatisfied with our exorbitant asking price.
This is definitely an irony and an angry remark!
Manager Li raised the corner of his mouth and coughed twice: "Mr. Pei, this is our psychological price. It is indeed a little higher than the cost we invested. I think this is very reasonable. After all, we have been operating the gog branch for so long, and it is not
You can’t work in vain, can you?”
Upon hearing what Manager Li said, Pei Qian instantly understood that what he said had been misinterpreted again.
Forget it, stop explaining. The more you explain, the bigger the problem will be.
Now the price quoted by these clubs is as high as 100 million yuan.
Pei Qian thought about it for a while. If these clubs were to be sold, it would be impossible for no one to buy them. If nothing else, Mr. Li might have to join forces with other investors to buy one for fun.
So it is unrealistic to expect that no one will take over. I can only say that it is definitely impossible to take over everything.
There are six or seven remaining ones that no one wants. Mr. Pei bought them out of his own pocket. It will definitely be okay for Tengda to squeeze out the money, and at the same time, it will not cause problems in the capital chain and affect those departments that are developing.
So be it, if it's cheaper, just be cheaper.
Pei Qian nodded: "Okay, we will negotiate with a third party at this price and let everyone bid freely!"
"But let me make something clear first. Now that you have agreed to sell and given a psychological price, you cannot go back on your word when the time comes."
"We first sign an agency contract. Tenda guarantees to sell your gog branch to your expected price, which can only be higher but not lower. If it cannot be sold, Tenda will pocket the money. On the other hand, if the price reaches the expected price, no one can
He said he wouldn’t sell it.”
"If there is a breach of contract, we will each bear the liability for breach of contract and pay liquidated damages."
It's like doing business. The seller has already made an offer, but when the buyer wants to buy, the seller goes back on his word. This is definitely not going to work.
Pei Qian is afraid that these clubs will regret it when the time comes, so won't he not be able to spend his money?
Therefore, the main purpose of signing the agency contract is to ensure that when Tenda buys these clubs at full price, they will not regret it.
For Pei Qian, as long as this contract is signed, Tengda will have to spend money to buy the club if he takes all the money. If he doesn't take all the money, he will have to pay liquidated damages to each club. He can spend money no matter what, isn't it wonderful?
As soon as they heard about signing the contract, the club managers were frightened again.
Manager Li coughed twice: "Well, Mr. Pei, can I call the boss now and ask for instructions?"
Pei Qian nodded: "Of course."
The managers of each club immediately dispersed and went to find some nook and cranny to call the boss.
Manager Li went to the garden outside the villa and called the club owner.
"Hello? Boss, let me report on the gog branch. Mr. Pei now wants us to sign a contract..."
"Yes, my quotation is 11 million. Even if it is sold, after deducting the player value, GPL quota, operating expenses, etc., we can still make a lot of money, and we will definitely not lose money."
"GPL quota? We can buy it if we want it. The quota itself is not valuable. How many clubs are there in the country now?"
"Yes, boss, GPL quota should not be very valuable, because now Tenda is engaged in e-sports ecology, allowing players to build their own teams and start playing in the Internet cafe competitions of Moyu Internet cafes. If this is the case, then we only need to buy Internet cafes that have the strength to be listed with GPL
Just join the team."
"Yes, in the worst case scenario, if we sell it for 11 million and spend a little money to buy a new team, we will definitely not lose money."
"Okay boss, I'll sign it first."
Manager Li hung up the phone, feeling much more confident.
After much deliberation, if you sign this contract, you will at most earn a little less, and you should not lose anything.
Player values and club costs are fixed, and the premium is high enough.
Just like playing with tickets, I set up a GoG branch, accepted sponsorships, and did some endorsements. I already earned some of it, and now I sell takeout at a premium, and I can earn a lot casually.
And even if you sell it, you can come back anytime you want.
At present, the entry qualifications for most e-sports leagues in the world are very loose. The reason is very simple: there are few people participating.
There are only a few clubs in total, and no one will compete for league spots.
If an Internet cafe team reaches the GPL league, how can it continue to operate? Then don't you have to find a club to support you? With a little money, you can buy this kind of Internet cafe team if you want.
When the time comes, sug will naturally buy an Internet cafe team that has a GPL quota. Maybe Mr. Pei has been taken advantage of and will have to extend a warm welcome to the sug club!
