The office became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. The old man couldn't help but smile when he saw the stunned expressions of the Lan family father and daughter.
"What? You don't believe it?"
Lan Songxuan looked at the old man in surprise: "Old sir, it's not that Lan doesn't believe it, it's just... can you come up with the ready-made funds of 2.5 billion euros?"
"Haha, 2.5 billion euros is indeed not a small amount of investment, but I prefer high-amount investments, because only in this way can there be high returns." As he said this, a strange mystery flashed in the old man's eyes.
Lan Songxuan frowned slightly as he looked at the old man. He was wearing a Tang suit that looked high-end. The red sandalwood crutch in his hand must have been valuable. Moreover, he came with an entourage, so he must not be an ordinary person.
"Old sir, Songxuan is not talented. May I ask which family you are the head of?" Lan Songxuan stood up, clasped his fists, and said.
"You don't need to know this. You just need to tell me whether you are willing to cooperate. If you are willing, my funds can be available as quickly as possible. If not... I will find another investment, but there are still few good investments."
Hearing this, Lan Songxuan was silent for a while. In fact, he has been a businessman all his life and he certainly understands a truth, that is, there is no such thing as a free lunch.
He would not believe that this old man invested in LK because of its prospects. He must have some other purpose. But now the Lan family is facing bankruptcy. Once bankrupt, not only Lan's Liquor Industry will be destroyed, but also Lan's Pharmaceutical.
10% of the shares will definitely be included, so this multiple-choice question is not difficult for him. Of course, the choice is to live or die.
"Old sir, what other conditions do you have?"
Hearing Lan Songxuan's question, the old man nodded and smiled: "As far as I know... the Lan family did not invest 2.5 billion euros in LK Company's investment, right?"
The old man's words completely stunned Lan Songxuan and Lan Luoshi. They didn't expect that the other party knew this, but it was inevitable. After all, they were going to make a huge investment, so of course they had to find out clearly, but this matter was indeed very important to Lan.
The family is disadvantaged because their investment is not in place at all. The actual investment of Dawson Company is far greater than 2.5 billion euros!
"So what Dawson escaped this time was not 2.5 billion, it should be around 3.5 billion, right?"
As the old man spoke, his aura instantly became so powerful that Lan Songxuan couldn't resist it. Obviously, this old man was not simple.
"Yes, what the old gentleman means is..."
"I will contribute up to 2.7 billion euros, and the Lan family will have to find a way to do the rest. Whether it is raising funds or continuing to use the equity of Lan's Pharmaceuticals to invest, the total investment will reach 5 billion euros."
Lan Songxuan secretly thought that it would be difficult to raise hundreds of millions of euros now, and he would definitely not be able to come up with so much liquidity. It seemed that he could only use Lan's Pharmaceutical shares to invest in the company.
Lan Luoshi seemed thoughtful, obviously also thinking about this issue. Then she looked at Lan Songxuan and said: "Dad..."
Lan Songxuan shook his head at her and looked at the old man: "Old sir, I need to calculate how much the final investment amount will be converted into equity."
"Twenty-three percent." The old man said simply.
Lan Songxuan was stunned, the other party was really prepared...
Now it seems that this old man is probably here for the stake in Lan's Liquor Industry. Lan Songxuan weighed it up. If he agrees, obviously LK Company will become a shareholder of Lan's Pharmaceutical, and it will be the major shareholder.
In LK Company, this old man is obviously also the largest shareholder. In this case... wouldn't Lan's Pharmaceutical also want to listen to him?
But think about the loss if you don't agree... Lan Songxuan took a deep breath: "Old sir, I can promise you, but you must ensure that all funds are in place immediately to alleviate the current difficulties of LK. Only in this way can we not continue to
Loss."
The old man turned to look at Lan Songxuan and smiled slightly: "How long are you talking about soon?"
Lan Songxuan thought for a while: "Within a week!"
"Tomorrow, all funds will be in place tomorrow. The specific matter of contacting local officials will be left to you. LK must resume full operations within three days!"
"Old sir, are you sure you can arrive tomorrow?" Lan Songxuan asked incredulously. After all, 2.7 billion euros is not a small amount. Although the other party should be able to take it out, it is too fast. It is like saying
It's so easy to take it out of your pocket...
"You don't have to think about it. Just draft the contract and get everything done today. I still have some things to deal with tomorrow. I'll leave the rest to you," the old man said.
Lan Songxuan nodded quickly and asked Lan Luoshi to draft a contract. One was an investment contract, requiring the old man's funds to be in place tomorrow and promising that LK Company would operate normally within three days.
The other is a cooperation contract, which clarifies the rights and obligations of shareholders, and includes LK's future business scope and some specific provisions. Since the previous contract template with Dawson Company is still there, it can be signed with slight changes.
Already.
Finally, the old man signed and it was signed Douglas.
Lan Songxuan nodded secretly. This old man was obviously of Chinese origin, but he was from a purely foreign family. There were many precedents of inheriting huge amounts of property like this.
Douglas and Lan Songxuan's father and daughter talked about some future ideas, and then left. Walking out of the LK Company Building, he smiled: "Things are basically done, King Kong, how can you thank me, old ghost?"
Haha, what an interesting game..."
After the old ghost left, Lan Songxuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I didn't expect that the urgent need could be solved so easily."
Lan Luoshi, however, looked worried, and stepped forward: "Dad, is this matter... too coincidental?"
Lan Songxuan frowned slightly and nodded: "Luo Shi, I understand what you mean. I also think there is something wrong with this Douglas. It is obvious that his purpose is not only to run LK, but is also interested in the equity of our pharmaceutical industry."
"Dad, did you also notice? Then you just..."
Lan Songxuan raised his hand to stop his daughter from continuing, and said: "The reason I stopped you is because we have no other choice for the time being. If we lose those shares now, at least our pharmaceutical industry is still there, and so is LK. The same
The assets of the wine industry have been saved, Luo Shi, think about it, once something goes wrong with LK, all the funds we invested and 10% of the equity will be gone."
Lan Luoshi was silent for a moment in thought.
"Once that happens, not only will we suffer serious losses, but the assets of the pharmaceutical industry will be reduced by 10% invisibly. Such an impact is unbearable for us."
"But dad, have you ever thought that once that Douglas becomes a shareholder of LK and Pharmaceutical, we will be completely passive, and we will even be kicked out by them sooner or later!"
Since running Shiyin with Lin Zichen, Lan Luoshi has also maintained a high degree of vigilance in business. Of course, no one could predict Dawson's withdrawal of capital, but Douglas's appearance still made her uneasy.
She vaguely felt that even if LK's losses really reached the limit, it would be better than if the pharmaceutical industry was controlled by others. After all, this series of things that happened had driven her crazy. Whether it was Mr. Jin or this Douglas, their cooperation was always
It was related to Lan's Pharmaceuticals in far away China, which had to make her feel strange.
"Okay, Luo Shi, stop talking. Business is like a gamble. I have gone through many gambles to get where I am today. What we have to do now is to prepare everything. Now that the employees are gone, we are ready to recruit a new batch of people."
, and be prepared to apply for resumption of operations and wait for Douglas’ funds to arrive tomorrow.”
Hearing this, Lan Luoshi sighed and said nothing more. After all, his father's meaning was already very clear.
Maybe I'm too sensitive. My father has more experience and makes this decision. I hope everything can go through safely...
…
Deep in the Yunlian Mountains, Lin Zichen did not quit his cultivation state for several days. It was not until most of his meridians, Dantian and bones had recovered that he slowly opened his eyes.
But at the same time, he found that his clothes were extremely dirty, as if they were soaked in a layer of dirt. Seeing this, Lin Zichen was stunned, could it be...
Immediately, I suddenly felt my meridians and Dantian. Sure enough, this few days of practice not only restored most of my body, but also... broke through to the late stage of transformation!
This is simply an unexpected surprise. I didn't expect that this time I would break through the barrier directly after fighting hard, thereby improving my strength. Moreover, I could break through unknowingly during practice. It was really a matter of course.
Originally, he wanted to jump into the air to experience the strength of the late stage of Mortal Realm, but considering that the injury had not yet healed, Lin Zichen held back.
He exhaled a long breath, feeling the nourishment of the mountain's true energy, and smiled: "Xiao Feng, your ice energy has melted in my body, and the injury is much better. I really want to thank you this time."
"Master, why are you still polite to me? We have a master-servant relationship." Xiaofeng's attitude was obviously surprising. The Bingfeng clan has a very obvious master-servant concept, and loyalty is also a major feature.
Lin Zichen smiled: "How come? We are friends. Haha, don't call me master from now on. It sounds really uncomfortable."
"Ah? How can that be done? The master is the master!"
Lin Zichen shook his head helplessly, stood up and looked at the mountains, sighing: "It's really rare to have such an opportunity. I might as well go into seclusion again during this period to consolidate my strength in the later period."
Afterwards, Lin Zichen flew in the air again, flying deeper into the mountains. Looking at the birds flying around him and the various beasts walking on the ground, Lin Zichen felt a sense of comfort in his heart.
When he reached the top of a mountain, Lin Zichen looked down from a distance. It seemed that there was a place where the true energy was very strong. Generally speaking, the night is when the true energy is most concentrated, but now it was daytime, it was already diffuse there, and it was obviously not
Mountain fog is so simple.
The corners of his mouth raised slightly: "It's right there, go and have a look!"
Heading straight down and through the mist, Lin Zichen discovered that this was a very closed small valley, surrounded by mountains. There were only a few holes that small animals could crawl in, and humans couldn't get in at all.
As soon as he entered the valley, Lin Zichen was infected by the refreshing fragrance of medicine. He looked around and found that there were countless kinds of medicinal materials growing naturally, and many of them were very rare.
Oh my god, this little valley is filled with elixirs...
