Chapter 227 ZG Endgame
Chapter 227 ZG Endgame
I had previously suspected that Chen Yuanyuan's child was Wu Lei's, but now it seems that it should be Chen Hangtian's.
It's a bit messy... However, thanks to her son, Chen Yuanyuan can be said to have used the Chen family's influence to legitimately ascend to the throne...
Some people wonder why the wealthy Chen family would allow a woman like Chen Yuanyuan to get pregnant and give birth. The truth is, a woman who, despite working as a sex worker, has been cultivated for over ten years since high school, possessing ability, experience, and talent, what could possibly make her even more devoted to the Chen family? Love? Power? Money? All nonsense. Only through a child, through blood ties, could she be truly bound to the family. Raising a child only costs 200 million, but the value Chen Yuanyuan creates for the Chen family in a year is far more than that.
"How many shares does ZG plan to offer?"
"Is this something I can decide? Your Chen family and the Zhou family should have already discussed it, right?"
Chen Yuanyuan: "We only had a brief discussion, and we still need to discuss the specifics ourselves, which is why Aerospace and I rushed to find you."
"Tell me what you mean."
Chen Yuanyuan and Chen Hangtian exchanged a glance. As expected, Chen Yuanyuan still held the initiative: "51% or more is best. The Chen family can buy it at a premium."
Look at that, that's the difference...
The Chen family is far superior to the Zhou family in this generation.
"You want 51%...and he wants 51% too...isn't this putting me in a difficult position?"
"Hehe, as long as we don't give the Qiu family 51, we can accept it."
Actually, if Zhou Fei and Zhou Qian can take the initiative to find the Chen family and form an alliance to suppress the Qiu family in terms of shares, then my role as the bad cop will not have been in vain. It all depends on whether the two of them are willing to do so.
If it really doesn't work out in the end, it's fate that the 51% stake goes to the Chen family. Even if it goes to the Zhou family, they won't be able to generate greater profits. It's better to hand it over to the Chen family for management, so that the Zhou family can ride on their coattails and reap the benefits.
After revealing the truth, the Chen family quickly left.
There were reasons for the time difference I arranged, and the three companies were also in good agreement.
The Chen family had just left.
Chen Yitang and Wu Yingrong arrived shortly after.
Chen Yitang was dressed quite conventionally today, wearing a white T-shirt, a denim jacket, cropped pants, and sneakers. She didn't look like she was there to negotiate; she looked more like she was going on a trip.
Wu Yingrong was still wearing a cheongsam, flesh-colored stockings, and high heels—a perfect match.
"Welcome, sister-in-law! Why isn't Brother Yu here?"
"He's busier than me since he became the section chief."
"Hehe, men are all career-oriented."
The couple is now both department heads... among the younger generation, who else could be more capable than us?
The Qiu family's attitude towards ZG is not controversial. As a newly listed company in the provincial capital, it is necessary for local Brahmins to take a step in. Even if it weren't for the Qiu family, there would be the Zhang family and the Li family. So I am very grateful to Qiu Zhanyu. On the surface, he helped me and blocked the path of other powerful families.
It seems that the initial 300 million yuan spent as a trial was not wasted.
"Since it's your first time here, sister-in-law, would you like to take a look around? ZG is quite a mature joint venture that combines supply chain and financial attributes."
"Can."
After all, this time it involves a real investment of money. No matter how carefree Chen Yitang is, he still needs to have a clear understanding of the situation. Financial coordination is only one aspect; he still needs to be fully aware of his own family's business.
The supply chain features unified distribution, 24-hour monitoring, and back-end inventory management for 53 supermarkets, with daily sales figures synchronized.
ZG can actually be considered a semi-automated technology platform.
Savings translate into profits.
Plus the price difference.
There's also the time lag in cash flow.
This is the ideal listed financial company.
meeting room.
I'm currently working closely with the Qiu family, so we ended up chatting for a while longer.
"What are your thoughts on ZG, sister-in-law? After all, we still have cooperation in the East District, so I have to lean towards the Qiu family."
Chen Yitang smiled and said, "Our focus is not on the real economy. It's enough for China to have a share. We can make some money on the side. Don't feel pressured."
The more officials speak in this way, the more you should listen to them from the opposite perspective...
"Both the Chen and Zhou families are vying for decision-making power. What about your side, sister-in-law?"
"Haha, just kidding. 15% is fine. Patriarch Qiu's main focus is on production and processing."
Indeed, besides rice, flour, and cooking oil, the Qiu family also deals in dried goods and local specialties. Currently, they are suppliers to ZG supply chain companies, so if one business doesn't perform well, another will.
A week later.
Zhou Qian came to see me alone.
office.
As soon as she entered, the woman locked the door from the inside.
What are you doing?
"take it easy."
Zhou Qian slowly walked up to me and took out a document from her handbag—the equity transfer agreement for Liancheng Chain Pharmacy....
Okay, that startled me.
"The Zhou family has redeemed the pharmacy's shares from the mortgage. They originally belonged to Minyi, and now they're being handed over to you."
20 pharmacies, equity transfer, along with valuation report, valued at around 3000 million.
But that's not enough. To get 51% of the shares, I need at least 3 million yuan in cash, which is beyond my control. The Wang family contributed the majority of the Series B funding, and the final profits will still belong to the Wang family.
"What do you mean by that?"
"4 million, of which 2.5 million is in cash. This is the limit the Zhou family can offer."
Everyone has their own ideas.
The Zhou family also has its own strategic plan. For so many years, the provincial capital has not had any noteworthy businesses, and ZG is an opportunity that the Zhou family must seize.
"Hehe, alright, then the Zhou family will have 67% of the shares."
Zhou Qian looked at me with a slightly complicated expression. After they went back, Zhou Ren couldn't stand it anymore and gave them some pointers.
"Tianyi, I can't imagine how you broke through the encirclement in Liancheng."
"It's just luck."
"Regarding the remaining 1.5 million, I'd like to have an equity swap agreement with you..."
Finally, I left an hour later, completely stunned by the Zhou family's methods. They were truly a case of "silent until they speak, then astonishing everyone when they do."
The scheming man in the main hall is still too deep. Zhou Fan's ability to sit in this position shows that his methods are no less than Zhou Ren's.
ZG sold for 6 million.
Ultimately, the Zhou family held 67% of the shares, the Chen family 17%, the Qiu family 15%, the Wang family withdrew all their shares, Hu Chuyue's cooperation agreement was retained, and the equity in ZG and the private domain company was swapped, leaving only 1% of the shares.
This 1% certainly doesn't belong to Hu Chuyue, but is held on my behalf and Chen Yuanyuan's behalf by Hu Chuyue's private company. This was an agreement we made beforehand, a benefit exchange with Chen Yuanyuan.
Chen Yuanyuan and I have a total of 6000 million yuan, with 1% of the shares held on our behalf.
The Wang family invested 3 million yuan in the Series B round. In theory, they would have earned even more if they went public. In fact, the Series B round doesn't require that much money at all. But for the Wang family, 3 million yuan is a good investment opportunity. Earning 5000 million yuan a year is not bad.
3.5 million was given to the Wang family.
Ultimately, Wang Yan led her team back to Shanghai.
I kept Xu Jingyan with a high salary—well, actually I received instructions from the Wang family... to stay in the provincial capital and help me.
The 1.9 million yuan, nominally belonging to NT Group, was actually an investment I made using the mortgage payments from the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, the payment for NP computing power, and the property management fees from NB Property.
So, this 1.9 million is mine. It was used to repay NT's misappropriated funds, NP's payment for goods, and the South-to-North Water Diversion Project payment, totaling 1.5 million. My net profit was only 4000 million.
Thus, the misappropriation of funds by Liancheng finally came to a satisfactory conclusion thanks to a series of actions taken in the provincial capital.
HY's illegal fundraising has been returned.
The payment for the steam-to-water conversion project has been settled.
The payment for the South-to-North Water Diversion Project has been settled.
Only NP Intelligent Computing Power and Ya Hong Group have negative assets, but they are steadily recovering their debts.
Use leverage to your advantage, and create something from nothing.
My rise to prominence is no different from those of wealthy and powerful families; those who know, know.
