Ruan Qingyun didn't hesitate for long. Two days later, he took the initiative to make an appointment with Xu Tongdao and expressed his agreement in principle to the merger of Golden Arrow Real Estate and Ximen Real Estate.
However, there are still many details that need to be negotiated between the two parties regarding specific cooperation conditions.
For example: How many shares does Ruan Qingyun hold in the new company after the merger?
For example: If there is firm opposition from shareholders within Golden Arrow Real Estate during the merger, how should we respond?
etc.
Regarding the previous question, Tongdao Xu cannot give Ruan Qingyun an accurate figure for the time being. This requires evaluating the respective values of both companies before he can calculate Ruan Qingyun’s current shares in Golden Arrow Real Estate and how much they will eventually be converted into shares in the new company.
.
Regarding the latter issue, Tongdao Xu's plan was simple - if a shareholder within Golden Arrow Real Estate firmly opposed the merger of the two companies, Tongdao Xu would pay for the other party's shares.
The controlling stake of Golden Arrow Real Estate is in the hands of Ruan Qingyun. As long as Ruan Qingyun agrees to merge Golden Arrow Real Estate into Ximen Real Estate, the opposition of individual small shareholders cannot prevent the merger of the two companies.
…
"What? You want Golden Arrow Real Estate to merge with our Ximen Real Estate? Why...why?"
Two days later.
Comrade Xu once again met privately with Luo Yong and Yan Shijin.
At the banquet, when he said that Golden Arrow Real Estate was about to merge with Ximen Real Estate, Luo Yong and Yan Shijin were both surprised.
Luo Yong, who also has shares in Golden Arrow Real Estate, frowned even more.
Tongdao Xu calmly picked up the wine bottle and poured wine for them. While pouring wine for them, he said: "Mr. Luo, don't get excited. Didn't we agree before that we should accelerate the expansion of our Ximen Real Estate business?"
However, it is too difficult for our company and the three of us to expand our Ximen Real Estate business to the entire province.
Therefore, we need more helpers to strengthen our team. Among other things, we need manpower to get projects and build buildings, right? Do you think our company’s current manpower alone is enough? Only in the year of the monkey can we expand our business to the whole province.
?”
"That's true."
Yan Shijin nodded in agreement.
Luo Yongze still frowned, "But, there are so many real estate companies in our provincial capital, why should we choose Golden Arrow Real Estate? Can't we merge with other companies?"
Tongdao Xu looked at Luo Yong and said with a smile: "Because we both have shares in Golden Arrow Real Estate! Ruan Qingyun has agreed now, and with your and my opinions, the resistance to the merger of Golden Arrow Real Estate into our Ximen Real Estate will be eliminated.
Much smaller.”
Luo Yong was shocked, "You, you also have shares in Golden Arrow Real Estate? When did it happen?"
Comrade Xu smiled, "Just recently."
Luo Yong looked at him, speechless for a long time.
Xu Tongdao: "Brother, I know that you and Ruan Qingyun have a grudge, but we do business not to have grudges, let alone to get angry with others. Do you agree with me?"
Luo Yong: "..."
Xu Tongdao: "Brother, all I have to do now is your nod. As long as you and I are of the same mind, and Ruan Qingyun has agreed to let Golden Arrow Real Estate merge into our Ximen Real Estate, we will expand our business to the whole province, and we will no longer just think about it.
It is a goal that is very likely to be achieved. You will still have time to resolve your personal grudges with Ruan Qingyun in the future, but if your personal grudges affect such a big plan like ours, don't you...don't you feel it's a loss?"
Yan Shijin rolled his eyes and helped Comrade Xu persuade him.
"Yes, Lao Luo! Think about it, with Mr. Xu's financial resources, once these two companies merge, the chairman of the merged company will definitely be Mr. Xu. If you think about it from another angle, in that case, Ruan Qingyun can also be regarded as a new leader.
He was kicked out of the position of chairman of Golden Arrow Real Estate. The person who should really be disappointed and sad should be Ruan Qingyun! Think about it carefully?"
Luo Yong's expression moved slightly.
Seeing this, Comrade Xu raised his glass and said, "Brother, we are talking about a merger in name this time. In fact, our Ximen Real Estate is annexing Golden Arrow Real Estate. Is this a good thing for our Ximen Real Estate? I think you should
Happy."
Luo Yong looked at Tongdao Xu with a complex expression, then looked at Yan Shijin, smiled and nodded, "Okay! In this case, let's merge! However, I want to remind you, Mr. Xu, once these two companies merge, from now on, I,
Ruan Qingyun, as well as Ren Yijian, are all shareholders of our Ximen Real Estate. By then, the three of us will definitely fight openly and secretly, so you must be mentally prepared!"
Comrade Xu chuckled, "As long as you and I are of one mind, brother, and we bring Ruan Qingyun together, will the remaining Ren Yijian be our opponent? And there is Lao Yan! Lao Yan will also stand by our side.
One side, right?”
Yan Shijin laughed, "Yes! I am definitely on your side!"
Luo Yong was still a little confused, "Let me and Ruan Qingyun stand on the same side?"
Comrade Xu said: "Let's unite Zong and Lianheng! Let's join forces with Ruan Qingyun first to suppress Ren Yijian's arrogance. When Ren Yijian is suppressed and loses his temper, how can Ruan Qingyun be left to fight with us?"
Luo Yong stretched out his hand and pointed at Xu Tongdao, "You! You are not very old, so you are very good at pulling a group of people and fighting a group of people."
Comrade Xu chuckled, "Everything is for the benefit of the company! As long as the company can concentrate its efforts on conquering foreign cities and territories, I have no intention of fighting with everyone."
…
The merger of Golden Arrow Real Estate and Ximen Real Estate is destined to not be accomplished overnight.
There are too many things that need to be negotiated and resolved in all aspects.
Apart from anything else, when two companies merge, the specific valuations of their respective companies cannot be determined in a short while.
Not only does it need to be evaluated, but all shareholders of the other company need to recognize the valuation of the other company.
Also, after the merger of two companies, the proportion of shares held by the original shareholders of the two companies in the new company will also take a long time to be negotiated.
Time passed slowly in this long negotiation and wrangling.
In the blink of an eye, another new year has arrived.
At the end of the year, Comrade Xu suddenly received a call from Zheng Qing.
On the phone, Zheng Qing told a piece of good news - he will get married after the new year.
The specific date is the sixth day of the first lunar month.
The wedding took place in his hometown, and I asked Tongdao Xu if he had time to attend.
Comrade Xu was surprised.
Because before today, he had never heard that Zheng Qing had a girlfriend. Why did he suddenly want to get married? Is it because he is older and went home for a blind date?
On the phone, Comrade Xu asked the questions in his heart.
Zheng Qing said: "No, in fact, I have been dating a partner for almost half a year. I found her in the provincial capital. The reason why I never told you is, haha, you are so busy every day. How could I bother you with such a trivial matter?
?Besides, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to get married before!”
Xu Tongdao: "Oh? Did you find it in the provincial capital? Did you find it yourself? Not on a blind date?"
Zheng Qing: "Well, I found it myself, not on a blind date!"
Comrade Xu's curiosity was piqued, "Oh? Really? Then... what's going on with my sister-in-law? What does she do? When will you introduce her to me?"
